10“Uma umuntu enika umakhelwane wakhe imbongolo, noma inkabi, noma imvu, noma silwane sini, bese isilwane siyafa noma silimale noma sithunjwe singabonwa muntu, 11isifungo phambi kukaSimakade yisona esiyakunquma phakathi kwabo ukuthi omunye akabanga nasandla empahleni yomunye. Umnini wesilwane uyakusamukela isifungo kungabi bikho sinxephezelo asitholayo. 12Kepha uma yebiwe, umniniyo uyothola isinxephezelo. 13Uma idwengulwe yizilwane zasendle, makulethwe ubufakazi; akuyukuba bikho sinxephezelo ngokudwenguliweyo.
14“Uma umuntu eboleka isilwane komunye umuntu bese leso silwane siyalimala noma sife umniniso engekho, uyakukhokhelwa ngokugcwele. 15Kepha uma umininiso ebekhona, akayukukhokhelwa, uma besiqashiwe, uyokhokhelwa inani lokusiqasha kuphela.

19 “Lowo olala nesilwane, makabulawe.
20 “Owenzela abanye onkulunkulu umhlatshelo, angenzeli uSimakade yena yedwa, uyobhujiswa.
21 “Awuyukumphatha kabi noma umcindezele umfokazi ohlala nawe, ngokuba nawe wawungumfokazi eGibhithe. 22 Aniyukumhlupha umfelokazi nentandane. 23 Uma ubahlukumeza, bese bekhala kimi, ngiyokuzwa ukukhala kwabo, 24 ulaka lwami luvuthe, nginibulale ngenkemba, omkenu babe ngabafelokazi, izingane zenu zibe yizintandane.
25 “Uma uboleka omunye wabantu bami imali, uboleka ompofu phakathi kwenu, awuyukumphathisa okombolekisi wemali, awuyukumbiza nzalo. 26Uma uthatha ingubo kamakhelwane wakho ibe yisibambiso, uyakuyibuyisela kuye lingakashoni ilanga, 27 ngokuba kungenzeka kube yiyona ngubo kuphela anayo ukuyembatha; uyokwembathani uma eselala na? Uma umakhelwane wakho ekhala kimi, ngiyokumlalela, ngokuba nginomusa.
