| 1. | UYitro, umbingeleli wakwaMidiyan, uyise womkaMoses, wayiva yonke into uThixo abeyenzele uMoses, namaSirayeli abantu bakhe, ukuba uYehova uwakhuphile amaSirayeli eYiputa. |
| 2. | UYitro, uyise womkaMoses, wamthabatha uTsipora, umkaMoses, emveni kokuba ebemndulule, |
| 3. | noonyana bakhe bobabini; igama lomnye lalinguGershom, kuba wathi, Bendingumphambukeli ezweni lolunye uhlanga; igama lomnye lalinguEliyezere, |
| 4. | kuba wathi, UThixo kabawo ubengumncedi wam, wandihlangula ekreleni likaFaro. |
| 5. | UYitro, uyise womkaMoses, weza ke noonyana bakhe nomkakhe, kuMoses entlango, apho wayemise khona intente, entabeni kaThixo. |
| 6. | Wathi kuMoses, Mna Yitro, unguyihlo, ndize kuwe, ndinomkakho enoonyana bakhe bobabini. |
| 7. | Waphuma uMoses, waya kumkhawulela uyise womkakhe, waqubuda, wamanga; babuzana impilo, bangena ententeni. |
| 8. | UMoses wambalisela uyise womkakhe yonke into uYehova abeyenzile kuFaro nakumaYiputa ngenxa kaSirayeli; nenkxamleko yonke abayifumanayo endleleni, nokuhlangulwa kwabo nguYehova. |
| 9. | Wavuya uYitro akukuva konke ukulunga abekwenzile uYehova kuSirayeli, ngokumhlangula esandleni samaYiputa. |
| 10. | Wathi uYitro, Makabongwe uYehova owanihlangulayo esandleni samaYiputa, nasesandleni sikaDaro; owabahlangulayo abantu, baphuma phantsi kwesandla samaYiputa. |
| 11. | Ngoku ndiyazi ukuba uYehova mkhulu koothixo bonke; ewe, kwakuloo nto amaYiputa abewakhukhumalele ngayo amaSirayeli. |
| 12. | UYitro, uyise womkaMoses, wamthabathela uThixo idini elinyukayo nemibingelelo; weza uAron namadoda amakhulu onke akwaSirayeli, esiza kudla isonka noyise womkaMoses phambi koThixo. |
| 13. | Kwathi ngengomso, uMoses wahlala wathetha amatyala abantu; abantu baxhontela kuMoses, kususela kusasa kwada kwangokuhlwa. |
| 14. | Wayibona uyise womkaMoses yonke into abeyenza ebantwini, wathi, Iyintoni na le nto uyenzayo ebantwini? Kungani na, le nto uhlala wedwa, bathi bona bonke abantu baxhontele kuwe, kususela kusasa kude kuhlwe? |
| 15. | Wathi uMoses kuyise womkakhe, Kungokuba abantu besiza kum ukuba ndibacelele icebo kuThixo; |
| 16. | xa banendawo, beza kum ukuba ndigwebe phakathi komntu nommelwane wakhe, ndibazise imimiselo kaThixo nemiyalelo yakhe. |
| 17. | Wathi uyise womkaMoses kuye, |
| 18. | Ayilungile le nto uyenzayo. Uya kuzigqiba uphele amandla, naba bantu unabo; kuba lo msebenzi unzima kuwe, akunakuwenza wedwa. |
| 19. | Phulaphula ngoko izwi lam, ndikuphe iqhinga; uThixo woba nawe. Wena yiba ngumlomo wabantu kuThixo, uzise izinto zabo kuThixo; |
| 20. | ubafundise imimiselo nemiyalelo, ubazise indlela abaya kuhamba ngayo, nomsebenzi abaya kuwenza. |
| 21. | Uze uzikhangelele ebantwini bonke amadoda anobunkunkqele ekuthetheni amatyala, amoyikayo uThixo, amadoda anyanisileyo, ayithiyileyo inzuzo embi, uwamise phezu kwabo, abe ngabathetheli-waka, nabathetheli-khulu, nabathetheli bamashumi ngamahlanu, nabathetheli bamashumi ngamanye; |
| 22. | bathethe amatyala abantu ngamaxesha onke; zithi izinto zonke ezinkulu bazizise kuwe; zonke ezincinane bazigwebe bona, ukuze kube lula kuwe, bakuthwalise. |
| 23. | Ukuba uthe wayenza loo nto, waza wakuwisela umthetho uThixo, woba nako ukuma, bathi naba bantu bonke bafike endaweni yabo benoxolo. |
| 24. | UMoses waliphulaphula izwi loyise womkakhe, wayenza into yonke abeyithethile. |
| 25. | UMoses wanyula amadoda anobunkunkqele ekuthetheni amatyala kuwo onke amaSirayeli, wawenza iintloko phezu kwabantu, aba ngabathetheli-waka, nabathetheli-khulu, nabathetheli bamashumi ngamahlanu, nabathetheli bamashumi ngamanye. |
| 26. | Bathetha amatyala abantu ngamaxesha onke; izinto ezinqabileyo bazizisa kuMoses, zonke ezincinane bazigweba bona. |
| 27. | UMoses wamndulula uyise womkakhe, waya elizweni lakowabo. |
