11 Jaanong Arone a kgadikanye Balefi gore ba nne tshupelo ya kgadikanyo fa pele gaMorenae e tswang mo Baiseraeleng gore e nne ba ba dirang tsa tirelo yaMorena.
12 Jaanong Balefi ba bee diatla mo ditlhogong tsa dipoana, o be o direleMorenanngwe go nna setlhabelo sa boleo le ya bobedi go nna setlhabelo sa phiso go batlela Balefi boitshwarelo.

14 O ntshe Balefi jalo mo Baiseraeleng gore Balefi e nne ba me.
15 Morago ga moo Balefi ba ka tsena go direla mo Tenteng ya Boipontsho. Jaanong he, ba itshekise jalo, o ba kgadikanye go nna tshupelo ya kgadikanyo.
16 Gonne ke ba filwe gotlhe ba tswa mo Baiseraeleng, ke ba itseetse boemong jwa botlhe ba bommaabo ba itibolang ka bone, e bong bana ba ntlha botlhe ba Baiseraele.
17 Gonne maitibolo otlhe mo Baiseraeleng ke a me a batho le a diruiwa; ke ne ka a iitshepisetsa ka letsatsi le ke bolaileng maitibolo otlhe a lefatshe la Egepeto ka lone.
18 Ka amogela Balefi mo boemong jwa batsalwapele botlhe mo Baiseraeleng.
19 Jaanong Balefi ka ba neela Arone le bomorwawe go nna ba bone ba tswa mo Baiseraeleng gore ba dire tsa tirelo-Modimo ya Baiseraele kwa Tenteng ya Boipontsho le go batlela Baiseraele boitshwarelo gore go se nne petso mo Baiseraeleng, fa ba atamela Felo-ga-Boitshepo.”
20 Ke fa Moše le Arone le phuthego yotlhe ya Baiseraele ba dira ka Balefi fela jaakaMorenaa laetse Moše ka ga Balefi; Baiseraele ba dira jalo ka bone.
21 Mme Balefi ba iitshekisa boleo, ba tlhatswa diaparo tsa bone, mme Arone a ba kgadikanya go nna tshupelo ya kgadikanyo fa pele gaMorena; a ba a ba ruanya go ba itshekisa.

25 Mme a e re a le dinyaga di le 50, a ikhutsisiwe mo tirelong ya Tempelana, a se tlhole a dira.
26 A ka nna a thusa ba ga gabo kwa Tenteng ya Boipontsho ka go tlhokomela ditshwanelo, fela tiro a se ka a e dira. O dire jalo ka Balefi mabapi le ditshwanelo tsa bone.”
