16. Kwathi ngomhla wesithathu, kwakusa, kwabakho iindudumo, nemibane, nelifu elinzima phezu kwentaba, nesandi sesigodlo esomeleleyo kunene; bagubha bonke abantu abaseminqubeni.
17. UMoses wabakhupha abantu eminqubeni, baya kumkhawulela uThixo; bema emazantsi entaba.
18. Intaba yeSinayi yaba ngumsi yonke iphela, kuba uYehova wehla phezu kwayo esemlilweni. Umsi wayo wenyuka njengomsi weziko lemfutho; yanyikima kunene yonke intaba.
19. Kwabakho isandi sesigodlo esaya sisomelela kakhulu; wathetha uMoses, uThixo wamphendula ngesandi.
20. Wehla ke uYehova phezu kwentaba yeSinayi, encotsheni yentaba; uYehova wambizela uMoses encotsheni yentaba leyo; wenyuka ke uMoses.
21. Wathi uYehova kuMoses, Yihla, ubaqononondise abantu, hleze batyhobozele kuYehova, bakhangele, kwenzakale into eninzi kubo.
