2 Mpoonya mbungano yoonse yabana Israyeli yakatalika kutongaukila Musa a Aroni munkanda.+
3 Bana Israyeli bakazumanana kwaamba kuti: “Nicakabota ikuti Jehova naakatujaya buyo mucisi ca Egepita ooko nkotwakali kulya nyama cakulilekela,+ acinkwa cakukkuta. Lino mwatuleta mucimpayuma eeci kutegwa mbungano yoonse eeyi ifwe anzala.”+
4 Mpoonya Jehova wakaambila Musa kuti: “Ndilamulosyela cinkwa kuzwa kujulu,+ umwi aumwi weelede kuunka kuyoobwezelela ncakonzya kulya abuzuba,+ kutegwa ndibasunke akubona naa bayootobela mulawo wangu naa pe.+
5 Pele mubuzuba bwacisambomwe+ nobabamba nzyobabwezelela, zyeelede kuba zyamazuba obilo kwiinda aali zyeezyo nzyobabwezelela abuzuba.”+
6 Aboobo Musa a Aroni bakaambila bana Israyeli boonse kuti: “Mangolezya mulazyiba ncobeni kuti ngu Jehova iwakamugwisya mucisi ca Egepita.+
7 Mafwumofwumo muyoobona bulemu bwa Jehova, nkaambo waamvwa matongoosi aanu ngomumutongookela Jehova. Ino swebo ndiswe bani kuti kamututongookela?”
8 Musa wakazumanana kwaamba kuti: “Jehova amupa nyama kumangolezya kuti mulye alimwi mafwumofwumo aakumupa cinkwa kuti mulye akukkuta, muyoozyiba kuti Jehova waamvwa matongoosi aanu ngomumutongookela. Alimwi ino swebo ndiswe bani? Tamutongookeli ndiswe pe, mutongookela Jehova.”+
9 Mpoonya Musa wakaambila Aroni kuti: “Ambila mbungano yoonse yabana Israyeli kuti, ‘Amuboole afwaafwi a Jehova, nkaambo waamvwa matongoosi aanu.’”+
10 Aroni mbwaakamanizyila buyo kwaambila mbungano yoonse yabana Israyeli, bakavwuuluka akulanga kulubazu lwankanda, eelyo bakabona bulemu bwa Jehova mukkumbi.+
11 Lino Jehova wakaambila Musa kuti:
12 “Ndaamvwa matongoosi aabana Israyeli.+ Kobaambila kuti, ‘Kumangolezya mulalya nyama alimwi mafwumofwumo muyoolya cinkwa akukkuta,+ eelyo muyoozyiba ncobeni kuti ndime Jehova Leza wanu.’”+
13 Aboobo mangolezya aayo bakancele bakaboola akuzula munkambi,+ alimwi mafwumofwumo kwakaba mume kuzinguluka nkambi yoonse.
14 Nokwakainda ciindi, mume wakayuminina eelyo munkanda+ kwakaboneka tuntu tupapalete tuniini-niini ituli mbuli caanda anyika.
15 Mpoonya bana Israyeli nobakatubona, bakatalika kubuzyanya kuti, “Ino ncinzi eeci?” nkaambo tiibakatuzyiba pe. Aboobo Musa wakati kulimbabo: “Eeci ncecilyo Jehova ncaamupa kuti mulye.+
16 Mboobu Jehova mbwaalailila, ‘Umwi aumwi abweze kweelana ambwakonzya kulya. Mweelede kubweza cipimyo caomeri*+ kweelana amweelwe wabantu umwi aumwi mbajisi mutente lyakwe.’”
17 Bana Israyeli bakacita mbubonya oobo; bamwi bakabwezelela cinji ibamwi cisyoonto.
18 Nobakapima acipimyo caomeri, ooyo wakabwezelela cinji kunyina cakaindilila alimwi ooyo wakabwezelela cisyoonto kunyina cakabulila.+ Umwi aumwi wakabwezelela kweelana ambwakonzya kulya.
19 Mpoonya Musa wakabaambila kuti: “Kutabi muntu uusiya cili coonse kusikila mafwumofwumo.”+
20 Pele tiibakamuswiilila Musa. Bantu bamwi nobakasiya cimwi kusikila mafwumofwumo, cakazwa mvwunyu akutalika kununka, eelyo Musa wakabakalalila.
21 Bakali kubwezelela lyoonse mafwumofwumo, umwi aumwi kweelana ambwakonzya kulya. Pele zuba lyabala, cakali kweenzemuka.
22 Mubuzuba bwacisambomwe, bakabwezelela mweelwe wacakulya camazuba obilo,+ maomeri obilo muntu omwe. Aboobo basilutwe boonse bambungano bakaunka bamwaambila Musa.
23 Mpoonya Musa wakabaambila kuti: “Mboobu mbwaamba Jehova: ‘Juunza kuyooba kulyookezya cakumaninina,* sabata iisalala kuli Jehova.+ Kamuyoka nzyomukonzya kuyoka, alimwi kamujika nzyomukonzya kujika,+ eelyo coonse citiicaale amucibambe kusikila mafwumofwumo.’”
24 Aboobo bakaciyobola kusikila mafwumofwumo mbubonya Musa mbwaakabalailila, eelyo tiicakanunka pe nokuba kuzwa mvwunyu.
25 Mpoonya Musa wakabaambila kuti: “Amucilye sunu, nkaambo sunu mbuzuba bwa Sabata bwa Jehova. Sunu tamukoocijana ansi pe.
26 Munoobwezelela mazuba aali cisambomwe, pele mubuzuba bwaciloba, nkokuti buzuba bwa Sabata,+ tamunoojani cili coonse.”
27 Nokuba boobo, mubuzuba bwaciloba bamwi bantu bakaunka kuti bakabwezelele, pele taakwe ncobakajana.
28 Aboobo Jehova wakati kuli Musa: “Ino nywebo nobantu muyooleka lili kukaka kutobela milawo yangu amalailile aangu?+
29 Amuzyibe kuti Jehova wamupa Sabata.+ Nkakaambo kaako ncamupeda cakulya camazuba obilo mubuzuba bwacisambomwe. Umwi aumwi weelede kukkala abusena bwakwe; taakwe weelede kuzwa abusena bwakwe mubuzuba bwaciloba.”
30 Aboobo bantu bakabamba Sabata* mubuzuba bwaciloba.+
31 Bana Israyeli bakaulika cakulya eeci kuti “mana.”* Cakali mbuli tunseke tuniini-niini tutuba, alimwi cakali kulweela mbuli tunkwa tuvwelene abuci.+
32 Mpoonya Musa wakati: “Mboobu Jehova mbwaalailila, ‘Amuzuzye omeri lyomwe lyacakulya eeci kuti ciyobolwe mumazyalani aanu oonse,+ kutegwa bakabone cakulya ncondakamusanina mucimpayuma eelyo nondakamugwisya mucisi ca Egepita.’”
33 Aboobo Musa wakaambila Aroni kuti: “Bweza nongo akubikka mana mulinjiyo aakkwana omeri mpoonya wiibikke kumbele lya Jehova kutegwa iyobolwe mumazyalani aanu oonse.”+
34 Mbubonya Jehova mbwaakalailila Musa, Aroni wakaibikka kumbele lya Bumboni+ kutegwa iyobolwe.
35 Bana Israyeli bakalya mana myaka iili 40,+ kusikila ciindi nobakasika munyika eeyo iyakakkedwe bantu.+ Bakalya mana kusikila nobakasika kumunyinza wanyika ya Kanana.+
36 Lino cipimyo caomeri ncipaanzi cakkumi caefa.*
