Levitiko 4

1 Yehova anayankhula ndi Mose kuti,

And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying:

2 “Awuze Aisraeli kuti, ‘Munthu akachimwa mosadziwa ndi kuchita chilichonse chimene Yehova walamula kuti asachite, azichita izi:

Speak unto the children of Israel, saying: If any one shall sin through error, in any of the things which the LORD hath commanded not to be done, and shall do any one of them:

3 “‘Ngati wansembe wodzozedwa achimwa, ndi kuchimwitsa anthu onse, iyeyu ayenera kupereka mwana wangʼombe wamphongo wopanda chilema chifukwa cha tchimo limene wachitalo. Imeneyi ndi nsembe ya Yehova yopepesera tchimo lake.

if the anointed priest shall sin so as to bring guilt on the people, then let him offer for his sin, which he hath sinned, a young bullock without blemish unto the LORD for a sin-offering.

4 Wansembeyo abwere nayo ngʼombeyo pa khomo la tenti ya msonkhano pamaso pa Yehova. Asanjike dzanja lake pamutu pa ngʼombeyo ndipo ayiphe pamaso pa Yehova.

And he shall bring the bullock unto the door of the tent of meeting before the LORD; and he shall lay his hand upon the head of the bullock, and kill the bullock before the LORD.

5 Kenaka wansembe wodzozedwa atengeko magazi a ngʼombeyo ndi kulowa nawo mu tenti ya msonkhano.

And the anointed priest shall take of the blood of the bullock, and bring it to the tent of meeting.

6 Iye aviyike chala chake mʼmagazi, ndipo awawaze kasanu ndi kawiri pamaso pa Yehova, patsogolo pa katani yotchinga malo wopatulika.

And the priest shall dip his finger in the blood, and sprinkle of the blood seven times before the LORD, in front of the veil of the sanctuary.

7 Kenaka wansembe apake magaziwo pa nyanga za guwa lofukizira lubani limene lili pamaso pa Yehova mu tenti ya msonkhano. Magazi ena otsalawo awathire pa tsinde pa guwa lansembe zopsereza, limene lili pa khomo la tenti ya msonkhano.

And the priest shall put of the blood upon the horns of the altar of sweet incense before the LORD, which is in the tent of meeting; and all the remaining blood of the bullock shall he pour out at the base of the altar of burnt-offering, which is at the door of the tent of meeting.

8 Pambuyo pake achotse mafuta onse a ngʼombe yayimuna yopepesera machimoyo: mafuta okuta zamʼkati kapena mafuta onse amʼkatimo.

And all the fat of the bullock of the sin-offering he shall take off from it; the fat that covereth the inwards, and all the fat that is upon the inwards,

9 Achotsenso ndi kubwera ndi impsyo zonse ziwiri pamodzi ndi mafuta onse ndiponso mafuta onse amene aphimba chiwindi ndi impsyo

and the two kidneys, and the fat that is upon them, which is by the loins, and the lobe above the liver, which he shall take away by the kidneys,

10 monga momwe amachotsera mafuta a ngʼombe yoperekedwa kuti ikhale chopereka chachiyanjano. Tsono wansembe atenthe zimenezi pa guwa lansembe zopsereza.

as it is taken off from the ox of the sacrifice of peace-offerings; and the priest shall make them smoke upon the altar of burnt-offering.

11 Koma chikopa cha ngʼombe yayimunayo ndi mnofu wake wonse, pamodzi ndi mutu ndi miyendo, zamʼkati ndi matumbo,

But the skin of the bullock, and all its flesh, with its head, and with its legs, and its inwards, and its dung,

12 kapena kuti ngʼombe yonse yotsalayo apite nayo kunja kwa msasa ku malo woyeretsedwa, kumene amatayako phulusa ndi kuyitentha pa nkhuni, pa phulusapo.

even the whole bullock shall he carry forth without the camp unto a clean place, where the ashes are poured out, and burn it on wood with fire; where the ashes are poured out shall it be burnt.

13 “‘Ngati gulu lonse la Aisraeli lichimwa mosadziwa, nachita chomwe ndi choletsedwa ndi Yehova, ngakhale kuti gulu lonselo silikudziwa kuti lachimwa, anthuwo ndi olakwa ndithu.

And if the whole congregation of Israel shall err, the thing being hid from the eyes of the assembly, and do any of the things which the LORD hath commanded not to be done, and are guilty:

14 Akazindikira tchimo limene achita, gulu lonse lipereke mwana wangʼombe wamphongo kuti akhale chopereka chopepesera tchimo ndipo abwere naye pa khomo la tenti ya msonkhano.

when the sin wherein they have sinned is known, then the assembly shall offer a young bullock for a sin-offering, and bring it before the tent of meeting.

15 Akuluakulu a anthuwo asanjike manja awo pa mutu pa ngʼombe pamaso pa Yehova, ndipo ayiphe pomwepo pamaso pa Yehova.

And the elders of the congregation shall lay their hands upon the head of the bullock before the LORD; and the bullock shall be killed before the LORD.

16 Tsono wansembe wodzozedwa atengeko magazi a ngʼombeyo ndi kulowa nawo mu tenti ya msonkhano.

And the anointed priest shall bring of the blood of the bullock to the tent of meeting.

17 Aviyike chala chake mʼmagaziwo ndi kuwawaza pamaso pa Yehova kasanu ndi kawiri patsogolo pa nsalu yotchinga.

And the priest shall dip his finger in the blood, and sprinkle it seven times before the LORD, in front of the veil.

18 Pambuyo pake iye apake magaziwo pa nyanga za guwa limene lili pamaso pa Yehova mu tenti ya msonkhano. Magazi ena otsalawo awathire pa tsinde pa guwa lansembe zopsereza limene lili pa khomo la tenti ya msonkhano.

And he shall put of the blood upon the horns of the altar which is before the LORD, that is in the tent of meeting, and all the remaining blood shall he pour out at the base of the altar of burnt-offering, which is at the door of the tent of meeting.

19 Kenaka achotse mafuta onse a ngʼombeyo ndi kuwatentha pa guwa,

And all the fat thereof shall he take off from it, and make it smoke upon the altar.

20 ndipo achite ndi ngʼombe yayimunayi monga anachitira ndi ngʼombe yayimuna yopepesera machimo. Potero, wansembe adzapereka nsembe yopepesera anthu, ndipo machimo awo adzakhululukidwa.

Thus shall he do with the bullock; as he did with the bullock of the sin-offering, so shall he do with this; and the priest shall make atonement for them, and they shall be forgiven.

21 Kenaka atulutse ngʼombeyo kunja kwa msasa ndi kuyitentha monga anatenthera ngʼombe yoyamba ija. Imeneyi ndiyo nsembe yopepesera machimo a gulu lonse.

And he shall carry forth the bullock without the camp, and burn it as he burned the first bullock; it is the sin-offering for the assembly.

22 “‘Ngati mtsogoleri achimwa mosadziwa nachita zimene ndi zoletsedwa ndi Yehova Mulungu wake, ndiye kuti wapalamula.

When a ruler sinneth, and doeth through error any one of all the things which the LORD his God hath commanded not to be done, and is guilty:

23 Ndipo ngati wauzidwa za tchimo limene wachita, iye abwere ndi mbuzi yayimuna yopanda chilema kuti ikhale chopereka chake.

if his sin, wherein he hath sinned, be known to him, he shall bring for his offering a goat, a male without blemish.

24 Asanjike dzanja lake pa mutu wa mbuziyo ndi kuyiphera pamalo pamene amaphera zopereka zopsereza pamaso pa Yehova. Ichi ndi chopereka chopepesera tchimo.

And he shall lay his hand upon the head of the goat, and kill it in the place where they kill the burnt-offering before the LORD; it is a sin-offering.

25 Pambuyo pake wansembe atengeko magazi a chopereka chopepesera tchimocho ndi chala chake, ndipo awapake pa nyanga za guwa lansembe zopsereza. Athire magazi otsalawo pa tsinde la guwalo.

And the priest shall take of the blood of the sin-offering with his finger, and put it upon the horns of the altar of burnt-offering, and the remaining blood thereof shall he pour out at the base of the altar of burnt-offering.

26 Wansembeyo atenthe mafuta onse pa guwapo monga amatenthera chopereka chachiyanjano. Pochita zimenezi, wansembe adzapereka nsembe yopepesera tchimo la munthuyo, ndipo adzakhululukidwa.

And all the fat thereof shall he make smoke upon the altar, as the fat of the sacrifice of peace-offerings; and the priest shall make atonement for him as concerning his sin, and he shall be forgiven.

27 “‘Ngati munthu wamba achimwa mosadziwa nachita zimene ndi zoletsedwa ndi Yehova, ndiye kuti wapalamula.

And if any one of the common people sin through error, in doing any of the things which the LORD hath commanded not to be done, and be guilty:

28 Ndipo ngati wauzidwa za tchimo limene wachita, abweretse mbuzi yayikazi yopanda chilema kuti ikhale chopereka chopepesera tchimo.

if his sin, which he hath sinned, be known to him, then he shall bring for his offering a goat, a female without blemish, for his sin which he hath sinned.

29 Asanjike dzanja lake pamutu pa mbuziyo ndipo ayiphe pamalo pamene amaphera chopereka chopsereza.

And he shall lay his hand upon the head of the sin-offering, and kill the sin-offering in the place of burnt-offering.

30 Ndipo wansembe atenge magazi ndi chala chake ndi kuwapaka pa nyanga za guwa lansembe zopsereza ndi kuthira magazi wotsalawo pa tsinde la guwalo.

And the priest shall take of the blood thereof with his finger, and put it upon the horns of the altar of burnt-offering, and all the remaining blood thereof shall he pour out at the base of the altar.

31 Kenaka iye achotse mafuta onse monga momwe anachotsera mafuta a chopereka chachiyanjano, ndipo awatenthe pa guwa kuti akhale fungo lokomera Yehova. Potero, wansembe adzapereka nsembe yopepesera tchimo la munthuyo ndipo adzakhululukidwa.

And all the fat thereof shall he take away, as the fat is taken away from off the sacrifice of peace-offerings; and the priest shall make it smoke upon the altar for a sweet savour unto the LORD; and the priest shall make atonement for him, and he shall be forgiven.

32 “‘Ngati munthu apereka mwana wankhosa ngati chopereka chopepesera tchimo lake, abwere ndi mwana wankhosa wamkazi wopanda chilema.

And if he bring a lamb as his offering for a sin-offering, he shall bring it a female without blemish.

33 Asanjike dzanja lake pa mutu wa mwana wankhosayo ndipo amuphe pamalo pamene amaphera chopereka chopsereza.

And he shall lay his hand upon the head of the sin-offering, and kill it for a sin-offering in the place where they kill the burnt-offering.

34 Kenaka wansembe atengeko ndi chala chake magazi a mwana wankhosa uja ndi kuwapaka pa nyanga za guwa lansembe zopsereza. Magazi otsalawo athire pa tsinde la guwalo.

And the priest shall take of the blood of the sin-offering with his finger, and put it upon the horns of the altar of burnt-offering, and all the remaining blood thereof shall he pour out at the base of the altar.

35 Iye achotse mafuta onse, monga amachotsera mafuta a mwana wankhosa wa chopereka chachiyanjano, ndipo wansembe awatenthe pa guwa pamodzi ndi zopereka zina zopsereza za Yehova. Potero, wansembe adzapereka nsembe yopepesera tchimo limene munthuyo anachita ndipo adzakhululukidwa.

And all the fat thereof shall he take away, as the fat of the lamb is taken away from the sacrifice of peace-offerings; and the priest shall make them smoke on the altar, upon the offerings of the LORD made by fire; and the priest shall make atonement for him as touching his sin that he hath sinned, and he shall be forgiven.
