Nina niyizinhloko zezindlu zawoyise bamaLevi ; zingcweliseni nina nabafowenu ukuba niwukhuphulele umphongolo kaJehova uNkulunkulu ka- Israyeli endaweni engiyilungisele wona.

Abantwana bamaLevi bawuthwala umphongolo kaNkulunkulu emahlombe abo ngezinti zawo njengokuyala kukaMose ngezwi likaJehova.

Labo babe yizinhloko zezindlu zawoyise bamaLevi , izinhloko ezizukulwaneni zabo, bahlala eJerusalema.

UJehoyada wamisa ababonisi bendlu kaJehova ngesandla sabapristi bamaLevi uDavide abahlukanisile endlini kaJehova bokunikela ngeminike lo yokushiswa kuJehova njengokulotshiweyo emthethweni kaMose , ngentokozo nangokuhlabelela, njengokuhlela kukaDavide.

U-Eleyazare indodana ka -Aroni wazithathela enye yamadodakazi kaPhuthiyeli, ibe ngumkakhe; yamzalela uFinehasi. Yilezi izinhloko zawoyise bamaLevi ngemindeni yawo.

Kuyakuthi nxa ehlala esihlalweni sobukhosi sombuso wakhe, uyakuzilobela impinda yalo mthetho encwadini ngokuthatha kuleyo ekubapristi bamaLevi;

uye kubapristi bamaLevi , nakumahluleli oyakuba khona ngalezo zinsuku , ukuze bakutshele isinqumo sokwahlulela,

Abapristi bamaLevi, yebo, sonke isizwe sakwaLevi asiyikuba nasabelo nafa kanye no-Israyeli; siyakudla iminikelo yomlilo kaJehova nefa lakhe.

Xwaya esifweni sochoko ukuba uqaphelisise , wenze njengakho konke abapristi bamaLevi abayakukufundisa khona ; njengokubayala kwami anoqaphela ukwenze njalo.

UMose nabapristi bamaLevi bakhuluma kuwo wonke u -Israyeli, bathi: Thula, ulalele, Israyeli: namuhla sewuyisizwe sikaJehova uNkulunkulu wakho.

Uyakunika abapristi bamaLevi abozalo lukaSadoki , abaseduze kimi , isho iNkosi uJehova, ukuba bangikhonze, iduna libe ngumnikelo wesono.

Kepha abapristi bamaLevi , amadodana kaSadoki , ababegcina inkonzo yendlu yami engcwele lapho abantwana bakwa -Israyeli beduka kimi , bayakusondela kimi , bangikhonze, beme phambi kwami , banikele kimi ngamanoni nangegazi, isho iNkosi uJehova;

Kwasondela izinhloko zawoyise bamaLevi ku -Eleyazare umpristi , nakuJoshuwa indodana kaNuni , nakuzo izinhloko zawoyise bezizwe zabantwana bakwa-Israyeli,

Zayala abantu, zathi: Nxa nibona umphongolo wesivumelwano sikaJehova uNkulunkulu wenu nabapristi bamaLevi bewuthwala , niyakusuka endaweni yenu, niwulandele.

Bonke abakwa -Israyeli namalunga abo , nezinduna zabo , nabahluleli babo babemi ngalapha nangalapha komphongo lo phambi kwabapristi bamaLevi abathwala umphongolo wesivumelwano sikaJehova , abafokazi nabokuzalwa ekhaya, inxenye yabo ibhekene nentaba yaseGerizimu , inxenye yabo ibhekene nentaba yase-Ebali, njengalokho uMose inceku kaJehova ebeyalile , ukuba babusise abantu bakwa-Israyeli kuqala.

Bonke ababalwayo bamaLevi ababalwa nguMose nangu -Aroni ngesiyalezo sikaJehova ngemindeni yabo, bonke abesilisa kusukela kwabanenyanga kuya phezulu, babe yizinkulungwane ezingamashumi amabili nambili.

Bonke ababalwayo bamaLevi ababalwa nguMose nangu -Aroni nayizikhulu zakwa-Israyeli ngemindeni yabo nangezindlu zawoyise,
