1 Zvino vanhu vakanyunyuta, Jehovha achizvinzwa, pamusoro pokuomerwa kwavo, uye paakavanzwa hasha dzake dzakamutswa. Ipapo moto wakabva kuna Jehovha ukapisa pakati pavo uye ukaparadza vamwe kumucheto womusasa.

2 Vanhu vakati vachema kuna Mozisi, akanyengetera kuna Jehovha moto ukadzima.

3 Saka nzvimbo iyo yakanzi Tabhera, nokuti moto wakabva kuna Jehovha ukapisa pakati pavo.

Zvihuta zvakabva kuna Jehovha

4 Vatorwa vakanga vari pakati pavo vakatanga kupanga zvimwewo zvokudya, uyezve vaIsraeri vakatanga kuungudza vachiti, “Ndianiko achatipa nyama kuti tidye?

5 Tinorangarira hove dzataidya muIjipiti tisingatengi; magaka, manwiwa, hanyanisi huru, hanyanisi diki nemhiripiri.

6 Asi zvino tafinhwa; hapana chimwe chinhu chatiri kuwana kunze kwemana iyi.”

7 Mana yakanga yakaita semhodzi yekorianda uye ichiratidzika samazambiringa akaoma. Vanhu vaitenderera vachiinhonga, uye, vaizoikuya paguyo kana kuidzvura muduri.

8 Vaiibika muhari kana kuita makeke. Uye yainaka kunge chinhu chakabikwa namafuta omuorivhi.

9 Dova raiti rawira pamusoro pomusasa usiku, mana yaiwawo.

10 Mozisi akanzwa vanhu vemhuri dzose vachiungudza, mumwe nomumwe pamukova wetende rake. Jehovha akatsamwa kwazvo, uye Mozisi akatambudzika.

11 Akabvunza Jehovha akati, “Seiko makauyisa dambudziko iri pamuranda wenyu? Chiiko chandakaita chisingakufadzei zvokuti makaisa mutoro wavanhu ava vose pamusoro pangu?

12 Ko, ndini ndakaita kuti vanhu vose ava vaumbwe here? Ko, ndini ndakavabereka here? Seiko muchindiita kuti ndivatakure mumaoko angu, somureri anotakura mwana mucheche kuti ndiende navo kunyika yamakavimbisa nemhiko kumadzitateguru avo?

13 Ndingawanepiko nyama yandingapa vanhu vose ava? Vanoramba vachingondichemera vachiti, ‘Tipe nyama yokudya.’

14 Handingatakuri vanhu ava vose ndoga; mutoro unondiremera kwazvo.

15 Kana muchida kundiitira saizvozvo, ndiurayei henyu iye zvino, kana ndawana hangu nyasha pamberi penyu, uye musandirega ndichiona kuparara kwangu.”

16 Jehovha akati kuna Mozisi, uya navakuru vavaIsraeri makumi manomwe vaunoziva savatungamiri namachinda pakati pavanhu. Uite kuti vauye kuTende Rokusangana, kuti vamire newe ipapo.

17 Ini ndichaburuka ndigozotaura newe ipapo, uye ndichatora Mweya uri pamusoro pako ndigoisa Mweya iwoyo pamusoro pavo. Ivo vachakubatsira kutakura mutoro wavanhu kuitira kuti iwe urege kuutakura woga.

18 “Udza vanhu kuti: ‘Zvinatsei mugadzirire zvamangwana, pamuchadya nyama. Jehovha akakunzwai pamakaungudza muchiti, “Dai bedzi taiva nenyama yokudya! Takanga tiri nani muIjipiti!” Zvino Jehovha achakupai nyama, uye muchaidya.

19 Hamungaidyi kwezuva rimwe chete, kana mazuva maviri kana mashanu, gumi kana makumi maviri,

20 asi kwomwedzi wose, kusvikira yabuda nomumhino dzenyu uye mukaisema, nokuti makaramba Jehovha, ari pakati penyu, uye maichema pamberi pake muchiti, “Takambobvireiko kuIjipiti?” ’ ”

21 Asi Mozisi akati, “Hezvi ndiri pakati pavanhu mazana matanhatu ezviuru vanofamba netsoka, zvino imi munoti, ‘Ini ndichavapa nyama kuti vadye kwomwedzi wose!’

22 Zvichavaringana here kana dai vakaurayirwa makwai nemombe? Zvichavaringana here kana dai vakabatirwa hove dzose dziri mugungwa?”

23 Jehovha akapindura Mozisi achiti, “Ko, ruoko rwaJehovha rwakapfupiswa here? Zvino uchaona kuti zvandinoreva zvichaitika here kana kuti kwete.”

24 Saka Mozisi akabuda akandoudza vanhu zvakanga zvataurwa naJehovha. Akaunganidza vakuru vavo makumi manomwe akavaita kuti vamire vakapoteredza Tende.

25 Ipapo Jehovha akaburuka ari mugore akataura navo uye akatora Mweya wakanga uri pamusoro pake akaisa Mweya uyu pamusoro pavakuru makumi manomwe. Mweya wakati wagara pamusoro pavo vakaprofita, asi havana kuzopamhazve.

26 Kunyange zvakadaro, varume vaviri, vainzi Eridhadhi naMedhadhi, vakanga vasara mumusasa. Ivo vakanga vaverengwa pakati pavakuru, asi havana kubuda kuti vaende kuTende. Asi Mweya wakagarawo pamusoro pavo uye, vakaprofita vari mumusasa.

27 Mumwe mujaya akamhanya akandoudza Mozisi akati, “Eridhadhi naMedhadhi vari kuprofita vari mumusasa.”

28 Joshua mwanakomana waNuni, uyo akanga ari mubatsiri waMozisi kubva paujaya hwake, akataura nesimba akati, “Mozisi, ishe wangu, vadzivisei!”

29 Asi Mozisi akapindura akati, “Ko, iwe une godo nokuda kwangu here? Ndinoshuva kuti dai vanhu vaJehovha vose vava vaprofita uye kuti dai Jehovha aisa Mweya wake pamusoro pavo!”

30 Ipapo Mozisi navakuru vavaIsraeri vakadzokera kumusasa.

31 Zvino mhepo yakabuda ichibva kuna Jehovha ikasunda zvihuta zvichibva kugungwa. Yakazvikanda pasi kumativi ose omusasa zvikaita murwi ungada kuita makubhiti mavirikubva pasi, kusvika pangafambwa rwendo rwezuva rimwe chete kumativi ose.

32 Zuva rose iroro nousiku hwose uye nezuva rose rakatevera vanhu vakabuda kundounganidza zvihuta. Hakuna akaunganidza zvaiva pasi pamahomeri gumi. Ipapo vakazviyanika vakapoteredza musasa.

33 Asi nyama ichiri pakati pamazino avo uye isati yatsengwa, kutsamwa kwaJehovha kwakapfuta pamusoro pavanhu, akavarova nehosha yakaipisisa.

34 Naizvozvo nzvimbo iyo yakatumidzwa kunzi Kibhuroti Hataavha, nokuti vakaviga vanhu vakanga vakarira zvimwewo zvokudya.

35 Vanhu vakabva paKibhuroti Hataavha vakaenda kuHazeroti vakandogara ikoko.

Miriamu naAroni vanopikisana naMozisi

1 Miriamu naAroni vakatanga kupopotera Mozisi nokuda kwomukadzi wake aiva muEtiopia, nokuti akanga awana muEtiopia.

2 “Ko, Jehovha akangotaura naMozisi oga here? Ko, haana kutaura kubudikidza nesuwo here?” Uye Jehovha akazvinzwa.

3 Zvino Mozisi akanga ari munhu akazvininipisa kwazvo, akazvininipisa kupfuura ani zvake pamusoro penyika.

4 Pakarepo Jehovha akati kuna Mozisi, Aroni naMiriamu, “Budai muuye kuTende Rokusangana, mose muri vatatu.” Saka vakabuda ivo vari vatatu.

5 Ipapo Jehovha akaburuka ari mushongwe yegore; akamira pamukova wokupinda kuTende akadana Aroni naMiriamu. Vakati vachibuda vari vaviri,

6 akati kwavari, “Teererai mashoko angu:

“Kana pano muprofita pakati penyu, ndinozviratidza kwaari nezviratidzo,

ndinotaura naye muzviratidzo,

7 Asi hazvina kudaro kuna Mozisi muranda wangu;

iye akatendeka muimba yangu yose.

8 Ndinotaura naye takatarisana,

pachena kwete nezvirahwe;

iye anoona chimiro chaJehovha.

Zvino makarega seiko kutya

kutaura muchipopotera muranda wangu Mozisi?”

9 Kutsamwa kwaJehovha kwakapfuta pamusoro pavo, uye akavasiya.

10 Gore rakati rabva pamusoro peTende, onei Miriamu amirepo ava namaperembudzi, akachena sechando. Aroni akatendeukira kwaari akaona kuti akanga ava namaperembudzi.

11 Ipapo akati kuna Mozisi, “Ndapota, ishe wangu, regai kuisa pamusoro pedu chivi chataita noupenzi.

12 Musarega achifanana nomwana akazvarwa akafa mudumbu ramai vake hafu yenyama yake yakadyiwa.”

13 Saka Mozisi akachema kuna Jehovha akati, “Haiwa Mwari, ndapota hangu muporesei!”

14 Jehovha akapindura Mozisi achiti, “Dai baba vake vanga vamupfira kumeso kwake, haazainyara kwamazuva manomwe here? Mubudise kunze kwomusasa kwamazuva manomwe; mugomudzosa henyu pashure.”

15 Saka Miriamu akabudiswa kunze kwomusasa kwamazuva manomwe, uye vanhu havana kupfuurira mberi kusvikira adzoswa.

16 Shure kwaizvozvo, vanhu vakabva paHazeroti vakandodzika musasa muRenje reParani.

Vasori vanoona nyika yeKenani

1 Jehovha akati kuna Mozisi,

2 “Tuma vamwe varume kuti vandosora nyika yeKenani, yandiri kupa kuvaIsraeri. Tuma mutungamiri mumwe kubva kurudzi rumwe norumwe rwamadzitateguru avo.”

3 Saka, sokurayira kwaJehovha, Mozisi akavatuma vachibva nokurenje reParani. Vose vakanga vari vatungamiri vavaIsraeri.

4 Haano mazita avo:

kubva kurudzi rwaRubheni, Shamua mwanakomana waZakuri;

15 kubva kurudzi rwaGadhi, Generi mwanakomana waMaki.

16 Aya ndiwo mazita avarume vakatumwa naMozisi kundosora nyika. (Mozisi akatumidza Hoshea mwanakomana waNuni zita rokuti Joshua).

17 Mozisi akati avatuma kundosora nyika yeKenani, akati kwavari, “Kwidzai mupinde nechokuNegevhi uye nomunyika yamakomo.

18 Mundoona kuti nyika yakadini uye kuti vanhu vanogarako vakasimba here kana kuti havana, vashoma here kana kuti vazhinji.

19 Nyika yavanogara yakadini? Yakanaka here kana kuti yakaipa? Maguta avagere maari akadiniko? Haana masvingo here kana kuti akakomberedzwa?

20 Ko, ivhu racho rakadini? Rakaorera here kana kuti kwete? Mune miti here kana kuti hamuna? Muedze kwazvo kuti muuye nezvimwe zvezvibereko zvenyika iyo.” (Yakanga iri nguva yokutanga kuibva kwamazambiringa).

21 Naizvozvo vakakwidza vakandosora nyika kubva kurenje reZini kusvikira kuRehobhi, kwakanangana neRebho Hamati.

22 Vakakwidza vachipinda nechokuNegevhi vakasvika kuHebhuroni paigara Ahimeni, Sheshai naTarimai, zvizvarwa zvaAnaki. (Hebhuroni rakanga ravakwa makore manomwe Zoani risati ravakwa muIjipiti).

23 Vakati vasvika paMupata weEshikori, vakatema davi rimwe raiva nesumbu ramazambiringa. Vaviri vavo vakaritakura nedanda pakati pavo pamwe chete namatamba uye namaonde.

24 Nzvimbo iyo yakanzi Mupata weEshikori nokuda kwesumbu ramazambiringa rakatemwa ipapo navaIsraeri.

25 Mazuva makumi mana akati apera, vakadzoka kubva kundosora nyika.

Vanozivisa zvokusora kwavo

26 Vakadzokera kuna Mozisi naAroni nokuungano yose yavaIsraeri paKadheshi murenje reParani. Ipapo vakazivisa kwavari nokuungano yose uye vakavaratidza zvibereko zvenyika.

27 Vakapa nhoroondo iyi kuna Mozisi: “Takaenda kunyika yamakatituma, uye inoerera mukaka nouchi! Hezvi zvibereko zvayo.

28 Asi vanhu vanogarako vane simba kwazvo, uye maguta akakomberedzwa uye makuru kwazvo. Takaona kunyange zvizvarwa zvaAnaki ikoko.

29 VaAmareki vanogara nechokuNegevhi; vaHiti, vaJebhusi navaAmori vanogara munyika yamakomo; uye vaKenani vanogara pedyo negungwa uye nomunzvimbo inotevedza Jorodhani.”

30 Ipapo Karebhu akanyaradza vanhu pamberi paMozisi akati, “Tinofanira kukwidza tindotora nyika nokuti zvirokwazvo tinogona kuitora.”

31 Asi varume vakanga vaenda naye vakati, “Hatigoni kurwisa vanhu ava; vakasimba kutipfuura isu.”

32 Saka vakaparadzira mashoko akaipa pakati pavaIsraeri pamusoro penyika yavakanga vandosora. Vakati, “Nyika yatakandosora inodya vaya vanogaramo. Vanhu vose vatakaona ikoko vakakura kwazvo.

33 Takaona vaNefirimi (izvo zvizvarwa zvavaAnaki vanobva kuvaNefirimi) ikoko. Isu tainge mhashu pakuona kwedu, uye tainge takadarowo pakuona kwavo.”

Vanhu vanomukira Mozisi

1 Usiku ihwohwo vanhu vose veungano vakasimudza manzwi avo vakachema zvikuru.

2 VaIsraeri vose vakapopotera Mozisi naAroni uye ungano yose yakati kwavari, “Dai bedzi takanga tafira muIjipiti! Kana murenje rino!

3 Ko, Jehovha ari kuuyireiko nesu kunyika ino zvoongotirega tichindourayiwa nomunondo? Vakadzi navana vedu vachatorwa senhapwa. Hazvaiva nani here kuti tidzokere kuIjipiti?”

4 Zvino vakataurirana vachiti, “Tinofanira kusarudza mutungamiri tidzokere kuIjipiti.”

5 Ipapo Mozisi naAroni vakawira pasi nezviso zvavo pamberi peungano yose yavaIsraeri yakanga iri ipapo.

6 Joshua mwanakomana waNuni naKarebhu mwanakomana waJefune, avo vakanga vari pakati pavaya vakanga vandosora nyika, vakabvarura nguo dzavo.

7 Vakati kuungano yose yavaIsraeri, “Nyika yatakapfuura napakati payo tikaisora yakanaka kwazvo.

8 Kana Jehovha achifadzwa nesu, achatitungamirira kuti tipinde munyika iyoyo, nyika inoyerera mukaka nouchi, agoipa kwatiri.

9 Chete imi regai kumukira Jehovha. Uye musatya vanhu venyika iyo, nokuti tichavamedza. Kudzivirirwa kwavo kwabviswa, asi Jehovha anesu. Musavatya.”

10 Asi ungano yose yakataura nezvokuti vatakwe namabwe. Ipapo kubwinya kwaJehovha kwakaonekwa paTende Rokusangana navaIsraeri vose.

11 Jehovha akati kuna Mozisi, “Vanhu ava vachasvika riniko vachingondizvidza? Vacharamba kunditenda kusvikira riniko, kunyange ndakaita zviratidzo nezvishamiso zvose pakati pavo?

12 Ndichavarova nedenda ndigovaparadza, asi iwe ndichakuita rudzi rukuru kwazvo uye rwakasimba kukunda ivo.”

13 Mozisi akati kuna Jehovha, “Ipapo vaIjipita vachanzwa pamusoro pazvo! Kuti makabudisa vanhu ava kubva pakati pavo nesimba renyu.

14 Uye vachaudza vanhu vanogara munyika ino pamusoro pazvo. Vakatozvinzwa kare kuti imi, Jehovha, mugere navanhu ava uye kuti imi, Jehovha, makaonekwa chiso nechiso, uye kuti gore renyu rinogara pamusoro pavo, uye kuti munovatungamirira neshongwe yegore masikati uye neshongwe yomoto usiku.

15 Kana mukauraya vanhu vose ava panguva imwe chete, ndudzi dzakanzwa mukurumbira uyu pamusoro penyu dzichati,

16 ‘Jehovha akanga asingagoni kuisa vanhu ava kunyika yaakanga avavimbisa nemhiko; saka akavauraya murenje.’

17 “Zvino simba raJehovha ngariratidzwe, sezvamakataura muchiti:

18 ‘Jehovha anononoka kutsamwa, azere norudo uye anoregerera zvivi nokumukira. Kunyange zvakadaro haangaregi kuranga ane mhosva, anoranga vana nokuda kwechivi chamadzibaba kusvikira kuchizvarwa chechitatu nechechina.’

19 Zvichienderana norudo rwenyu rukuru, regererai chivi chavanhu ava, sezvamakavaregerera kubva panguva yavakabva kuIjipiti kusvikira zvino.”

20 Jehovha akapindura akati, “Ndavaregerera sezvawakumbira iwe.

21 Asi hazvo, noupenyu hwangu zvirokwazvo, uye zvirokwazvo sokuzara kunoita nyika yose nokubwinya kwaJehovha,

22 hakuna mumwe wavarume vakaona kubwinya kwangu nezvishamiso zvandakaita muIjipiti nomurenje asi vakasanditeerera, uye vakandiedza kanokwana kagumi,

24 Asi nokuda kwokuti muranda wangu Karebhu ano mweya wakasiyana navamwe uye anonditevera nomwoyo wose, ndichamupinza munyika yaakaenda kwairi, uye ichava nhaka yezvizvarwa zvake.

25 Sezvo vaAmareki navaKenani vachigara mumipata, dzokai mangwana mufambe makananga kurenje muchitevedza nzira inoenda nokuGungwa Dzvuku.”

26 Jehovha akati kuna Mozisi naAroni,

27 “Ungano iyi icharamba ichindipopotera kusvikira riniko? Ndanzwa kunyunyuta kwavaIsraeri vokungopopota havo ava.

28 Saka vaudze kuti, ‘Zvirokwazvo noupenyu hwangu, ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha, ndichakuitirai zvinhu zvacho zvandakanzwa muchireva muchiti:

30 Hakuna mumwe wenyu achapinda munyika yandakakupikirai noruoko rwakasimudzwa kuti uve musha wenyu, kunze kwaKarebhu mwanakomana waJefune naJoshua mwanakomana waNuni.

31 Asi kana vari vana venyu vamakati vachatapwa, ndichavapinza kuti vafare munyika yamaramba imi.

32 Asi imi zvitunha zvenyu zvichawira murenje rino.

35 Ini, Jehovha, ndazvitaura, uye zvirokwazvo ndichaita zvinhu izvi kuungano yose iyi yakaipa, yakabatana pamwe chete kuti indirwise. Vachaperera murenje muno; vachafira muno.”

36 Saka varume vakanga vatumwa naMozisi kundosora nyika, vaya vakadzoka vakaita kuti ungano yose ipopotere Mozisi nemhaka yokuparadzira mashoko akaipa pamusoro payo:

37 varume ava vakanga vaparadzira mashoko akaipa pamusoro penyika, vakarohwa vakaurayiwa nedenda pamberi paJehovha.

38 Pavarume vakaenda kundosora nyika, Joshua mwanakomana waNuni naKarebhu mwanakomana waJefune ndivo bedzi vakararama.

39 Mozisi akati azivisa izvi kuvaIsraeri vose, vakachema zvikuru.

40 Mangwana acho mangwanani, vakakwidza vakananga kumusoro kunyika yamakomo marefu. Vakati, “Takatadza hedu. Tichakwidza tiende kunyika yatakavimbiswa naJehovha.”

41 Asi Mozisi akati kwavari, “Sei musingateereri kurayira kwaJehovha? Izvi hazvibudiriri!

42 Musakwidza kumusoro nokuti Jehovha haazi pakati penyu. Muchakundwa navavengi venyu,

43 nokuti vaAmareki navaKenani vachasangana nemi ikoko. Nokuti makafuratira Jehovha, iye haangavi nemi uye muchaurayiwa nomunondo.”

44 Kunyange zvakadaro, nepfungwa dzavo, vakaenda vakananga kunyika yamakomo marefu, kunyange Mozisi asina kuenda uye areka yaJehovha yesungano isina kubviswawo pamusasa.

45 Ipapo vaAmareki navaKenani vaigara munyika yamakomo vakaburuka vakavarwisa vakavadzingirira kusvikira kuHoma.

Zvimwe Zvipiriso

17 Jehovha akati kuna Mozisi,

Munhu akaputsa murayiro weSabata anourayiwa

32 VaIsraeri vachiri murenje, mumwe murume akawanikwa achiunganidza huni nezuva reSabata.

3 Vakauya vari chikwata kuti vazopikisa Mozisi naAroni vakati kwavari, “Mazonyanya zvino! Ungano yose itsvene, mumwe nomumwe wavo zvake, uye Jehovha ari pakati pavo. Zvino munozviisireiko pamusoro peungano yaJehovha?”

4 Mozisi akati anzwa izvozvo, akawira pasi nechiso.

5 Ipapo akati kuna Kora navateveri vake vose, “Mangwanani Jehovha acharatidza kuti vanhu vake ndavapi uye kuti mutsvene ndiani, uye achaita kuti munhu uyo aswedere kwaari. Munhu waachasarudza ndiye waachaswededza kwaari.

6 Iwe Kora, navateveri vako vose munofanira kuita izvi: Torai hadyana dzezvinonhuhwira

8 Mozisi akatizve kuna Kora, “Chinzwai zvino, imi vaRevhi!

9 Ko, hazvina kukwana kwamuri here kuti Mwari wavaIsraeri akakutsaurai pakati peungano yavaIsraeri vose akakuswededzai pedyo naye kuti muite basa patabhenakeri yaJehovha uye kuti mumire pamberi peungano mugovashandira?

10 Akakuswededzai imi nehama dzenyu ivo vaRevhi, asi zvino mava kuedza kubvuta upristawo.

11 Uku kurwa naJehovha zvamadai kusungana pamwe chete iyemi navose vanokuteverai. Aroni ndianiko wamunopopotera?”

12 Ipapo Mozisi akadana Dhatani naAbhiramu, vanakomana vaEriabhi. Asi ivo vakati, “Hatiuyiko!

13 Hazvina kukwana here kuti makatibudisa munyika inoyerera mukaka nouchi kuti muzotiurayira murenje? Uye iye zvino munoda kubata ushe pamusoro pedu here?

14 Pamusoro pezvo, hamuna kutisvitsa kunyika inoyerera mukaka nouchi kana kutipa nhaka yeminda neminda yemizambiringa. Muchada kutumbura meso avanhu ava here? Haiwa, isu hatiuyiko!”

15 Ipapo Mozisi akatsamwa zvikuru akati kuna Jehovha, “Musagamuchira chipiriso chavo. Handina kutovatorera kana mbongoro, uye handina kutadzira kana mumwe wavo.”

16 Mozisi akati kuna Kora, “Iwe navose vanokutevera munofanira kumira pamberi paJehovha mangwana, iwe, naivo naAroni.

17 Murume mumwe nomumwe ngaatore hadyana yake aise zvinonhuhwira mairi, hadyana mazana maviri namakumi mashanu pamwe chete mugodziisa pamberi paJehovha. Iwe naAroni munofanira kuuyawo nehadyana dzenyu.”

18 Saka murume mumwe nomumwe akatora hadyana yake, akaisa moto nezvinonhuhwira mairi, uye vakamira naMozisi naAroni pamukova wokupinda muTende Rokusangana.

19 Kora akati aunganidza vateveri vake vose vaipikisana navo pamukova wokupinda muTende Rokusangana, kubwinya kwaJehovha kwakaonekwa neungano yose.

20 Jehovha akati kuna Mozisi naAroni,

21 “Zvitsaurei imi paungano iyi kuitira kuti ndivaparadze izvozvi.”

22 Asi Mozisi naAroni vakawira pasi nezviso zvavo vakadanidzira zvikuru vachiti, “Haiwa Mwari, Mwari wemweya yavanhu vose, mungatsamwira ungano yose here munhu mumwe chete angotadza?”

23 Ipapo Jehovha akati kuna Mozisi,

24 “Uti kuungano, ‘Sudurukai mubve pamatende aKora, Dhatani naAbhiramu.’ ”

25 Mozisi akasimuka akaenda kuna Dhatani naAbhiramu uye vakuru veIsraeri vakamutevera.

26 Akayambira ungano akati, “Sudurukai mubve pamatende avanhu vakaipa ava! Musabata chinhu chipi zvacho chinenge chiri chavo, kuti murege kuparadzwa nokuda kwezvivi zvavo zvose.”

27 Saka vakasuduruka vakabva pamatende aKora, Dhatani naAbhiramu. Dhatani naAbhiramu vakanga vabuda kunze uye vakanga vakamira navakadzi vavo, vana navacheche vari pamukova pamatende avo.

28 Ipapo Mozisi akati, “Muchaziva nezvizvi kuti Jehovha akandituma kuti ndiite zvinhu izvi zvose uye kuti dzakanga dzisiri pfungwa dzangu:

29 Kana varume ava vakafa savamwe vanhu uye vakasangana nezvinongoitika kuvanhu vose, ipapo Jehovha anenge asina kundituma.

30 Asi kana Jehovha akauyisa chimwe chinhu chitsva, uye nyika ikashamisa muromo wayo ikavamedza, nezvose zvavo, uye vakaburukira muguva vari vapenyu, ipapo muchaziva kuti varume ava vazvidza Jehovha.”

31 Akati achangopedza kutaura zvose izvi, pasi pavo pakatsemuka

32 uye nyika ikashamisa muromo wayo ikavamedza, nenhumbi dzavo navanhu vose vaKora nezvinhu zvavo zvose.

33 Vakaburukira muguva vari vapenyu, nezvinhu zvavo zvose; nyika ikavafukidza, vakaparara vakabva pakati peungano.

34 Pavakachema, vaIsraeri vose vakanga vakavakomba vakatiza, vachidanidzira vachiti, “Nyika ichatimedza nesuwo!”

35 Ipapo moto wakabuda uchibva kuna Jehovha ukaparadza varume mazana maviri namakumi mashanu vakanga vachipisira zvinonhuhwira.

36 Jehovha akati kuna Mozisi,

37 “Taurira Ereazari mwanakomana waAroni, muprista, kuti abvise hadyana parufuse agoparadzira mazimbe kure nokuti hadyana itsvene,

38 idzo hadyana dzavarume vaye vakatadza vakaurayiwa. Pwanyai hadyana mugoita chifukidziro chearitari nadzo, nokuti dzakauyiswa pamberi paJehovha dzikava tsvene. Ngadzive chiratidzo kuvaIsraeri.”

39 Saka Ereazari muprista akaunganidza hadyana dzendarira dzakauya navaya vakanga vapiswa, akaita kuti dzipwanyiwe kuti dzigova chifukidzo chearitari,

40 sezvaakarayirwa naJehovha kubudikidza naMozisi. Ichi chaiva chirangaridzo kuvaIsraeri chokuti hakuna munhu anofanira kupisira zvinonhuhwira pamberi paJehovha kunze kwechizvarwa chaAroni kuti aregere kuzofanana naKora navateveri vake.

41 Fume mangwana, ungano yose yavaIsraeri yakapopotera Mozisi naAroni. Vakati, “Imi makauraya vanhu vaJehovha.”

42 Asi ungano yakati yaungana pamwe chete ichipikisana naMozisi naAroni vakatarira kuTende Rokusangana, pakarepo gore rikaifukidza uye kubwinya kwaJehovha kukaonekwa.

43 Ipapo Mozisi naAroni vakaenda mberi kweTende Rokusangana,

44 uye Jehovha akati kuna Mozisi,

45 “Ibva paungano iyi kuti ndivaparadze iye zvino.” Ipapo vakawira pasi nezviso zvavo.

46 Zvino Mozisi akati kuna Aroni, “Tora hadyana yako ugoisa zvinonhuhwira mairi pamwe chete nomoto unobva paaritari, uchimbidze kuenda kuungano undovayananisira. Hasha dzabuda dzichibva kuna Jehovha; denda ratotanga.”

47 Saka Aroni akaita sezvakarehwa naMozisi, akamhanyira pakati peungano. Denda rakanga ratotanga pakati pavanhu, asi Aroni akapisira zvinonhuhwira akavayananisira.

48 Akamira pakati pavapenyu navakafa, denda rikamirawo.

49 Asi vanhu zviuru gumi nezvina namazana manomwe vakafa nedenda, vachiwedzera pane vaya vakanga vafa nokuda kwaKora.

50 Ipapo Aroni akadzokera kuna Mozisi pamukova wokupinda muTende Rokusangana, nokuti denda rakanga rapera.

Tsvimbo yaAroni inobukira mashizha

1 Jehovha akati kuna Mozisi,

2 “Taura kuvaIsraeri utore tsvimbo gumi nembiri kubva kwavari, imwe chete kubva kuno mumwe nomumwe wavatungamiri vamarudzi amadzitateguru avo. Unyore zita romurume mumwe nomumwe patsvimbo yake.

3 Patsvimbo yaRevhi unyore zita raAroni, nokuti panofanira kuva netsvimbo imwe chete yomukuru mumwe nomumwe worudzi rwamadzitateguru avo.

4 Udziise muTende Rokusangana pamberi peChipupuriro, pandinosangana nemi.

5 Tsvimbo yomunhu wandichasarudza ichabukira mashizha, uye ndichagumisa kupopota uku kwavaIsraeri kuri kuramba kuripo pamusoro pako.”

6 Saka Mozisi akataura navaIsraeri, uye vatungamiri vavo vakamupa tsvimbo gumi nembiri, imwe chete iri yomutungamiri mumwe nomumwe wamarudzi amadzitateguru avo, uye tsvimbo yaAroni yakanga iri pakati padzo.

7 Mozisi akaisa tsvimbo idzi pamberi paJehovha muTende reChipupuriro.

8 Fume mangwana Mozisi akapinda muTende reChipupuriro uye akaona kuti tsvimbo yaAroni, iyo yaiva yakamirira imba yaRevhi, yakanga isina kungobukira bedzi asi yakanga yatungira, yava namaruva uye yabereka maarimondi.

9 Ipapo Mozisi akatora tsvimbo dzose kubva pamberi paJehovha akaenda nadzo kuvaIsraeri vose. Vakadzitarisa, ipapo murume mumwe nomumwe akatora tsvimbo yake.

10 Jehovha akati kuna Mozisi, “Dzorera tsvimbo yaAroni pamberi peTende reChipupuriro, kuti ichengetwe sechiratidzo kuvanhu vanondimukira. Izvozvi zvichagumisa kundipopotera kwavo, kuti varege kufa.”

11 Mozisi akaita sezvaakarayirwa naJehovha, izvozvo ndizvo zvaakaita.

12 VaIsraeri vakati kuna Mozisi, “Isu tichafa hedu! Takarasika, takarasika isu tose!

13 Ani naani achaswedera patabhenakeri yaJehovha achafa. Ko, isu tose tichafa here?”

Mabasa aVaprista navaRevhi

1 Jehovha akati kuna Aroni, “Iwe, navanakomana vako nemhuri yababa vako munofanira kuva nebasa rokutakura mhosva dzinotadzirwa nzvimbo tsvene, uye iwe navanakomana vako bedzi ndimi munofanira kuita basa rokutakura mhosva dzinotadzirwa basa rouprista.

2 Uya nehama dzako ivo vaRevhi vanobva kurudzi rwamadzitateguru ako kuti vazobatana newe uye vagokubatsira iwe navanakomana vako pamunoshumira pamberi peTende reChipupuriro.

3 Vanofanira kuva pasi pako uye vanofanira kuita mabasa ose eTende asi havafaniri kuswedera pedyo nemidziyo yenzvimbo tsvene kana aritari, kana kuti mose ivo newe muchafa.

4 Vanofanira kubatana newe vagoita basa rokuchengeta Tende Rokusangana, basa rose rapaTende uye hakuna mumwezve anofanira kuswedera pauri.

5 “Munofanira kuva nebasa rokuchengeta nzvimbo tsvene nearitari, kuti hasha dzirege kuwira pavaIsraerizve.

6 Ini pachangu ndakasarudza hama dzako ivo vaRevhi pakati pavaIsraeri kuti vave sechipo kwauri, vakumikidzwe kuna Jehovha kuti vaite basa paTende Rokusangana.

7 Asi iwe chete navanakomana vako ndimi mungashanda savaprista pazvinhu zvose zviri paaritari nezviri mukati mechifukidziro. Ndiri kukupai basa rouprista sechipo. Ani naani anoswedera panzvimbo tsvene anofanira kuurayiwa.”

Zvipiriso zvaVaprista navaRevhi

8 Ipapo Jehovha akati kuna Aroni, “Ini ndimene ndakugadza kuti uve muchengeti wezvipiriso zvinopiwa kwandiri; zvipiriso zvose zvitsvene zvinopiwa kwandiri navaIsraeri ndinozvipa kwauri iwe navanakomana vako somugove wako uye ugova mugove wako wamazuva ose.

9 Iwe unofanira kuva nomugove wezvipiriso zvitsvene-tsvene zvinosara pane zvinopiswa. Pazvipo zvose zvavanondivigira sezvipiriso zvitsvene-tsvene, zvingava zvezviyo kana zvechivi kana chipiriso chemhosva, chikamu ichocho ndechako iwe navanakomana vako.

10 Muchidye sechinhu chitsvene-tsvene; murume wose achachidya. Chinofanira kuva chitsvene kwamuri.

11 “Izvi ndezvako zvakare: chimwe nechimwe chinotsaurwa kubva pazvipo zvose zvezvipiriso zvinoninirwa zvavaIsraeri. Ndinokupa izvi iwe navanakomana vako navanasikana vako somugove wako wamazuva ose. Munhu wose weimba yako anenge akachena angazvidya hake.

12 “Ndinokupa mafuta omuorivhi akaisvonaka uye waini yose yakaisvonaka nezviyo zvavanovigira Jehovha sezvibereko zvokutanga zvegohwo ravo.

13 Zvibereko zvose zvenyika zvavanovigira Jehovha zvichava zvako. Munhu wose weimba yako anenge akachena angazvidya.

14 “Zvinhu zvose zvakatsaurirwa Jehovha muIsraeri ndezvako.

16 Kana zvava nomwedzi mumwe chete, unofanira kuzvidzikinura nomutengo wedzikinuro wakatarwa wamashekeri mashanuesirivha, maererano neshekeri renzvimbo tsvene, rinorema magera makumi maviri.

17 “Asi haufaniri kudzikinura mhuru nzombe yedangwe, gwai kana mbudzi, zvitsvene. Usase ropa razvo paaritari ugopisa mafuta azvo sechipiriso chinoitwa nomoto, chive chinonhuhwira zvinofadza kuna Jehovha.

20 Jehovha akati kuna Aroni, “Iwe haungawani nhaka munyika mavo, uye haungavi nomugove nenhaka pakati pavaIsraeri.

21 “VaRevhi ndinovapa zvegumi zvose zvavaIsraeri senhaka yavo kutsiva basa ravanoita pavanenge vachishumira paTende Rokusangana.

22 Kubva zvino zvichienda mberi, vaIsraeri havafaniri kuswedera kuTende Rokusangana, kuti varege kuva nemhosva yezvivi zvavo vakazofa.

23 VaRevhi ndivo vanofanira kuita basa paTende Rokusangana uye vagotakura zvakaipa zvavanhu. Uyu mutemo uchagara uripo kusvikira kuzvizvarwa zvinotevera. Ivo havangawani nhaka pakati pavaIsraeri.

24 Pachinzvimbo chaizvozvo ndinopa kuvaRevhi nhaka yezvegumi zvinopiwa kuna Jehovha navaIsraeri. Ndokusaka ndakati kwavari: ‘Havangavi nenhaka pakati pavaIsraeri.’ ”

25 Jehovha akati kuna Mozisi,

26 “Taura kuvaRevhi uti kwavari: ‘Pamunogamuchira zvegumi kubva kuvaIsraeri zvandinokupai senhaka yenyu, munofanira kupa chegumi chezvegumi sechipiriso chaJehovha.

32 Hamungazovi nemhosva pachinhu kana muchiuyisa chikamu chakanakisisa chacho; ipapo hamungazosvibisi zvitsvene zvavaIsraeri, uye hamuzofi.’ ”

Mvura yoKunatsa

1 Jehovha akati kuna Mozisi naAroni,

2 “Izvi ndizvo zvinodikanwa pamurayiro wakarayirwa naJehovha. Udza vaIsraeri kuti vakuvigire tsiru dzvuku risina kuremara, kana charingapomerwa uye risina kumbosungwa pajoko.

3 Uripe kuna Ereazari muprista; rinofanira kubudiswa kunze kwomusasa rigourayiwa pamberi pake.

4 Ipapo Ereazari muprista anofanira kutora rimwe reropa raro nomunwe agorisasa kanomwe akananga mberi kweTende Rokusangana.

5 Akatarisa, tsiru rinofanira kupiswa, dehwe raro, nyama yaro namazvizvi aro.

6 Muprista anofanira kutora huni dzomusidhari, hisopi newuru tsvuku agozvikanda pamusoro petsiru riri kutsva.

7 Shure kwaizvozvo, muprista anofanira kusuka nguo dzake uye azvishambidze nemvura. Ipapo angachipinda hake mumusasa, asi achange asina kunatswa kusvikira madekwana.

8 Munhu acharipisa naiyewo anofanira kusuka nguo dzake uye agoshamba nemvura uye iyewo achava asina kuchena kusvikira madekwana.

9 “Munhu akachena achaunganidza madota etsiru agoaisa panzvimbo yakanaka iri kunze kwomusasa. Achachengetwa neungano yavaIsraeri kuti agoshandiswa pamvura yokunatsa; ndeyokunatswa kubva pachivi.

10 Munhu anounganidza madota etsiru anofanirawo kusuka nguo dzake, naiyewo achava asina kuchena kusvikira madekwana. Mutemo uyu uchagara uripo pakati pavaIsraeri navatorwa vagere pakati pavo.

11 “Ani naani anobata chitunha chaani zvake achava asina kuchena kwamazuva manomwe.

12 Anofanira kuzvinatsa nemvura nezuva retatu uye nezuva rechinomwe; ipapo achava akachena.

13 Ani naani anobata chitunha chaani zvake akasazvinatsa anosvibisa tabhenakeri yaJehovha. Munhu uyu anofanira kubviswa pakati pavaIsraeri. Nokuti mvura yokunatsa haina kumbosaswa pamusoro pake, haana kuchena; kusachena kwake kucharamba kuri paari.

14 “Uyu ndiwo murayiro unobata pamunhu anofira mutende: Ani naani anopinda mutende uye ani zvake ari mariri achava asina kuchena kwamazuva manomwe,

16 “Ani naani ari musango anobata munhu akaurayiwa nomunondo kana mumwe munhu akangofawo zvake, kana munhu anobata bvupa romunhu kana guva, achava asina kuchena kwamazuva manomwe.

17 “Kana munhu asina kuchena, utore dota rinobva pachipiriso chokunatsa chakapiswa ugoriisa muchirongo ugoridira mvura yakachena.

18 Ipapo munhu akachena anofanira kutora hisopi, ainyike mumvura agosasa tende nemidziyo yose uye navanhu vanga varimo. Anofanira kusasawo ani zvake akabata bvupa romunhu kana guva kana mumwe munhu akaurayiwa kana munhu akangofawo zvake.

19 Munhu akachena anofanira kusasa munhu asina kuchena nezuva rechitatu uye nerechinomwe, uye pazuva rechinomwe anofanira kumunatsa. Munhu ari kunatswa anofanira kusuka nguo dzake agozvishambidza nemvura, uye manheru iwayo anofanira kuva akachena.

21 Uyu mutemo uchagara uripo kwavari.

“Munhu anosasa mvura yokunatsa anofanirawo kusuka nguo dzake, uye ani naani anobata mvura yokunatsa achava asina kunaka kusvikira madekwana.

Mvura yakabva padombo

1 Mumwedzi wokutanga, ungano yose yeIsraeri yakasvika murenje reZini, uye vakandogara paKadheshi. Ndipo pakafira Miriamu uye akavigwapo.

2 Zvino pakanga pasisina mvura yeungano, uye vanhu vakaungana vakapopotera Mozisi naAroni.

3 Vakapopotera Mozisi vachiti, “Dai zvedu takafa pakafira hama dzedu pamberi paJehovha!

4 Seiko wakauya neungano yaJehovha murenje rino, kuti isu nezvipfuwo zvedu tifire muno.

5 Seiko wakatibudisa muIjipiti uchitiuyisa munzvimbo yakaipa kudai? Haina zviyo kana maonde, mazambiringa kana matamba. Uye mvura yokunwa hapana!”

6 Mozisi naAroni vakabva paungano vakaenda kumukova weTende Rokusangana vakawira pasi nezviso zvavo, kubwinya kwaJehovha kukaratidzwa kwavari.

7 Jehovha akati kuna Mozisi,

8 “Tora tsvimbo uye iwe nomukoma wako Aroni muunganidze ungano pamwe chete. Utaure kudombo pamberi pavo rigobudisa mvura yaro. Iwe uchabudisa mvura kubva mudombo kuti vanwe ivo nezvipfuwo zvavo.”

9 Saka Mozisi akatora tsvimbo pamberi paJehovha, sezvaakanga amurayira.

10 Iye naAroni vakaunganidza ungano pamwe chete pamberi pedombo, Mozisi akati kwavari, “Teererai imi vokumukira, tinofanira kukubudisirai mvura padombo iri here?”

11 Ipapo Mozisi akasimudza ruoko rwake akarova dombo kaviri netsvimbo yake. Mvura yakabuda, ungano nezvipfuwo zvikanwa.

12 Asi Jehovha akati kuna Mozisi naAroni, “Nokuti hamuna kuvimba neni zvakakwana kuti mundikudze somutsvene pamberi pavaIsraeri, imi hamuchapinzi ungano iyi munyika yandakavapa.”

13 Iyi ndiyo mvura yeMeribha, apo vaIsraeri vakarwa naJehovha uye paakazviratidza kuti mutsvene pakati pavo.

VaEdhomu vanorambidza vaIsraeri kupfuura

14 Mozisi akatuma nhume ari kuKadheshi kuna mambo weEdhomu, achiti:

“Zvanzi nomununʼuna wako Israeri: Iwe unoziva matambudziko ose akatiwira.

15 Madzibaba edu akaburuka achienda kuIjipiti, tikandogarako kwamakore mazhinji. VaIjipita vakatibata zvakaipa isu namadzibaba edu,

16 asi takati tadana kuna Jehovha, akatinzwa akatuma mutumwa akatibudisa muIjipiti.

“Zvino tiri pano paKadheshi, guta riri kumucheto wenyika yenyu.

17 Tapota titendereiwo kupfuura nomunyika yenyu. Hatizopindi nomuminda ipi zvayo kana minda yemizambiringa kana kunwa zvako mvura mutsime ripi zvaro. Tichafamba hedu nomunzira huru yamambo uye hatingatsaukiri kurudyi kana kuruboshwe kusvikira tapfuura nomunyika yenyu.”

18 Asi Edhomu akapindura akati:

“Hamupfuuri napano; kana mukaedza, tichabuda tigokurwisai nomunondo.”

19 VaIsraeri vakapindura vakati:

“Tichaenda nenzira huru, uye kana isu kana zvipfuwo zvedu zvikanwa mvura yenyu, ticharipa. Tinongoda kupfuura tichifamba netsoka, hapanazve chimwe.”

20 Vakapindurazve vachiti:

“Hamungapfuuri.”

Ipapo Edhomu akauya kuzovarwisa nehondo huru uye ine simba.

21 Sezvo Edhomu akaramba kuvabvumira kupfuura nomunyika yavo, vaIsraeri vakatsauka havo kubva kwavari.

Kufa kwaAroni

22 Ungano yose yeIsraeri yakasimuka kubva kuKadheshi uye vakasvika paGomo reHori.

23 PaGomo reHori, pedyo nomuganhu weEdhomu, Jehovha akati kuna Mozisi naAroni,

24 “Aroni achachengetwa kuvanhu vokwake. Haangapindi munyika yandakapa vaIsraeri, nokuti mose muri vaviri makamukira murayiro wangu pamvura yepaMeribha.

25 Tora Aroni nomwanakomana wake Ereazari ukwire navo muGomo reHori.

26 Ubvise nguo dzaAroni udzipfekedze mwanakomana wake Ereazari nokuti Aroni achasanganiswa navanhu vokwake; achafira ipapo.”

27 Mozisi akaita sezvaakanga arayirwa naJehovha: Vakakwira muGomo reHori pamberi peungano yose.

28 Mozisi akabvisa nguo dzaAroni akadzipfekedza mwanakomana wake Ereazari. Uye Aroni akafira ipapo pamusoro pegomo. Ipapo Mozisi naEreazari vakaburuka kubva mugomo.

29 Uye ungano yose yakati yazvinzwa kuti Aroni akanga afa, imba yose yeIsraeri yakamuchema kwamazuva makumi matatu.
