2 Ndilalemba majwi mbuli ngondakalembede amabwe aapapalete aakusaanguna, aalya ngookapwaya, alimwi weelede kwaabikka mubbokesi.’
3 Aboobo ndakapanga bbokesi lyacisamu camuunga akubeza mabwe obilo aapapalete mbuli aakusaanguna, eelyo ndakatanta mucilundu amabwe obilo aapapalete mumaanza.+
4 Mpoonya amabwe aayo aapapalete, wakalemba majwi ngoonya ngaakalembede kusaanguna,+ Milawo Iili Kkumi,*+ aalya Jehova ngaakaamba kulindinywe mucilundu mukati kamulilo,+ buzuba mbungano noyakabungene;+ kumane Jehova wakandipa ngawo.
5 Mpoonya ndakapiluka akuselemuka kuzwa acilundu+ alimwi ndakabikka mabwe aapapalete mubbokesi ndyondakapanga, oomo mwaakakkala mbubonya Jehova mbwaakandilailila.
6 “Eelyo bana Israyeli bakanyamuka kuzwa ku Beeroti Bene-jakani kuya ku Mosera. Aroni wakafwa akuzikkwa nkoonya ooko,+ mpoonya Eleazara mwanaakwe wakaba mupaizi mubusena bwakwe.+
7 Nobakazwa kooko bakaunka ku Gudigoda, kuzwa ku Gudigoda bakaunka ku Jotibata,+ inyika yatulonga tukunka maanzi.
8 “Aciindi eeco Jehova wakasala musyobo wa Levi+ kuti kabanyamuna bbokesi lyacizuminano ca Jehova,+ kwiima kumbele lya Jehova kuti bamubelekele alimwi akulongezya muzina lyakwe+ mbuli mbobacita asunu.
9 Nkakaambo kaako Levi ncatajisi caabilo naa lukono antoomwe abanabokwabo. Jehova ndolukono lwakwe, mbubonya Jehova Leza wanu mbwaakamwaambila.+
10 Mebo ndakakkala mucilundu mbubonya mbuli lweendo lwakusaanguna, mazuba aali 40 syikati amasiku,+ alimwi Jehova wakandiswiilila aaciindi eeco.+ Jehova tanaakali kuyanda kumunyonyoona.
11 Mpoonya Jehova wakati kulindime, ‘Koya kumbele lyabantu akulibambila kunyamuka, kutegwa banjile akubweza nyika eeyo njondakakonkezya kuli bamausyi kuti ndiyakwiipa kulimbabo.’+
12 “Lino nobana Israyeli, ino Jehova Leza wanu uyanda nzi kulindinywe?+ Ncayanda buyo nceeci: nkuyoowa Jehova Leza wanu+ akweenda munzila zyakwe zyoonse+ akumuyanda alimwi akumubelekela Jehova Leza wanu amoyo wanu woonse abuumi bwanu boonse,+
13 alimwi akubamba milawo amalailile aa Jehova ngendimulailila sunu, kuti zintu zimweendele kabotu.+
14 Amubone, ijulu ndilya Jehova Leza wanu, naaba majulu aamajulu, alimwi anyika kubikkilizya azintu zyoonse zili mumo.+
15 Pele Jehova wakayanda buyo bamauso akupanga cilongwe ambabo, alimwi wakasala ndinywe nolunyungu lwabo+ akati kamisyobo yoonse, mbuli mbokubede sunu.
16 Lino mweelede kusalazya* myoyo yanu+ akuleka kuba basicinguni.*+
17 Nkaambo Jehova Leza wanu ngu Leza wabaleza,+ Mwami wabami, Leza mupati, singuzu alimwi uuyoosya, uutasalululi+ naa kutambula cisinkamulomo.
18 Ulababeteka cabululami bamucaala abamukabafwu+ alimwi ulabayanda beenzu+ akubapa zyakulya azisani.
19 Anywebo mweelede kubayanda beenzu, nkaambo andinywe mwakali beenzu mucisi ca Egepita.+
20 “Mweelede kuyoowa Jehova Leza wanu, kumubelekela,+ kukakatila kulinguwe alimwi mweelede kunookonka muzina lyakwe.
21 Ngonguwe ngomweelede kutembaula.+ Ngu Leza wanu iwakamucitila zintu zyoonse eezyi zipati alimwi ziyoosya nzyomwabona ameso aanu.+
22 Bamauso nobakaunka ku Egepita bakali buyo bantu bali 70,+ pele lino Jehova Leza wanu wamuvwuzya mbuli nyenyeezi zyakujulu.+
