15 “Ningahlaba, nidle inyama phakathi kwayo yonke imizi yenu njengesifiso senhliziyo yenu nanjengesibusiso uSimakade uNkulunkulu wenu aniphe sona phakathi kwamasango enu. Ongcolileyo nohlambulukileyo bayokudla kukho njengalokhu benza kweyensephe neyendluzele. 16 Igazi kuphela eningayikulidla, kodwa niyakulichitha emhlabathini njengamanzi. 17 Okweshumi kokusanhlamvu kwakho, okwewayini lakho, okwamafutha akho, okwamazibulo ezinkomo zakho, okwezimvu zakho, izithembiso ozenzile, iminikelo yakho yesihle, umnikelo wokuphakanyiswa wesandla sakho, aniyukukudla ngaphakathi kwamasango enu. 18 Khona niyokudla phambi kukaSimakade uNkulunkulu wenu, endaweni ayoyikhetha uSimakade uNkulunkulu wenu. Kuleyo ndawo, wena nendodana yakho, indodakazi yakho, inceku yakho, incekukazi yakho, nomLevi ohlala emzini wakho, niyothokoza phambi kukaSimakade uNkulunkulu wenu ngayo yonke imikhiqizo yenu. 19 Qaphela, funa ningamnakekeli umLevi zonke izinsuku zokuhlala kwenu ezweni.
20 “Kuyothi lapho uSimakade uNkulunkulu wenu enweba umngcele wenu njengoba ayethembisile, bese nithi: ‘Ngifuna ukudla inyama,’ njengoba inhliziyo yenu ifisa ukudla inyama, niyoyidla inyama njengokufisa kwenhliziyo yenu. 21Uma indawo uSimakade uNkulunkulu wenu ayikhetha ukuba abeke kuyo igama lakhe ikude nani, niyohlaba emhlanjini wenu nasezimvini zenu aniphe zona uSimakade, njengalokhu nganiyala, niyokudla lokho phakathi kwamasango enu njengokufisa kwenhliziyo yenu. 22Njengalokhu nidla insephe nendluzele, niyakukudla kanjalo. Ongcolileyo nohlambulukileyo bayakudla ngokufanayo. 23 Qaphelani kuphela ukuba ningalidli igazi, ngokuba igazi lingumphefumulo. Aniyukuwudla umphefumulo kanye nenyama. 24 Aniyukulidla, kodwa niyakulichitha emhlabathini njengamanzi. 25 Ningalidli ukuba kube kuhle kini nakubantwana benu emva kwenu, ngokuba niyobe nenza okulungile emehlweni kaSimakade.
