Levitiko 4
1 Yehova anayankhula ndi Mose kuti,
Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
2 “Awuze Aisraeli kuti, ‘Munthu akachimwa mosadziwa ndi kuchita chilichonse chimene Yehova walamula kuti asachite, azichita izi:
“Tell the people of Israel, 'When anyone sins without wanting to sin, doing any of the things that Yahweh has commanded not to be done, and if he does something that is prohibited, the following must be done.
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 it is the high priest who sins so as to bring guilt on the people, then let him offer for his sin which he has committed a young bull without blemish to Yahweh as 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.
He must bring the bull to the entrance of the tent of meeting before Yahweh, lay his hand on its head, and kill the bull before Yahweh.
5 Kenaka wansembe wodzozedwa atengeko magazi a ngʼombeyo ndi kulowa nawo mu tenti ya msonkhano.
The anointed priest will take some of the blood of the bull and take 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.
The priest will dip his finger into the blood and sprinkle some of it seven times before Yahweh, before the curtain of the most holy place.
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.
Then the priest will put some of the blood on the horns of the altar of fragrant incense before Yahweh, which is in the tent of meeting, and he will pour out all the rest of the blood of the bull at the base of the altar for burnt offerings, which is at the entrance of the tent of meeting.
8 Pambuyo pake achotse mafuta onse a ngʼombe yayimuna yopepesera machimoyo: mafuta okuta zamʼkati kapena mafuta onse amʼkatimo.
He will cut away all the fat of the bull of the sin offering; the fat that covers the inner parts, all the fat that is attached to the inner parts,
9 Achotsenso ndi kubwera ndi impsyo zonse ziwiri pamodzi ndi mafuta onse ndiponso mafuta onse amene aphimba chiwindi ndi impsyo
the two kidneys and the fat that is on them, which is by the loins, and the lobe of the liver, with the kidneys—he will cut away all this.
10 monga momwe amachotsera mafuta a ngʼombe yoperekedwa kuti ikhale chopereka chachiyanjano. Tsono wansembe atenthe zimenezi pa guwa lansembe zopsereza.
He will cut it all away, just as he cuts it off from the bull of the sacrifice of peace offerings. Then the priest will burn these parts on the altar for burnt offerings.
11 Koma chikopa cha ngʼombe yayimunayo ndi mnofu wake wonse, pamodzi ndi mutu ndi miyendo, zamʼkati ndi matumbo,
The skin of the bull and any remaining meat, with its head and with its legs and its inner parts 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.
all the rest of the parts of the bull—he will carry all these parts outside the camp to a place that they have cleansed for me, where they pour out the ashes; they will burn those parts there on wood. They must burn those parts where they pour out the ashes.
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.
If the whole assembly of Israel sins without wanting to sin, and the assembly is unaware that they have sinned and done any of the things which Yahweh has commanded not to be done, and if they 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.
then, when the sin they have committed becomes known, then the assembly must offer a young bull 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.
The elders of the assembly will lay their hands on the head of the bull before Yahweh, and the bull will be killed before Yahweh.
16 Tsono wansembe wodzozedwa atengeko magazi a ngʼombeyo ndi kulowa nawo mu tenti ya msonkhano.
The anointed priest will bring some of the blood of the bull 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 will dip his finger in the blood and sprinkle it seven times before Yahweh, before the curtain.
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.
He will put some of the blood on the horns of the altar that is before Yahweh, which is in the tent of meeting, and he will pour out all the blood at the base of the altar for burnt offerings, which is at the entrance of the tent of meeting.
19 Kenaka achotse mafuta onse a ngʼombeyo ndi kuwatentha pa guwa,
He will cut off all the fat from it and burn it on 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.
That is what he must do with the bull. Just as he did with the bull of the sin offering, so will he also do with this bull, and the priest will make atonement for the people, and they will be forgiven.
21 Kenaka atulutse ngʼombeyo kunja kwa msasa ndi kuyitentha monga anatenthera ngʼombe yoyamba ija. Imeneyi ndiyo nsembe yopepesera machimo a gulu lonse.
He will carry the bull outside the camp and burn it as he burned the first bull. This 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 sins without intending to sin, doing any one of all the things that Yahweh his God has commanded not to be done, and he is guilty,
23 Ndipo ngati wauzidwa za tchimo limene wachita, iye abwere ndi mbuzi yayimuna yopanda chilema kuti ikhale chopereka chake.
then his sin which he has committed is made known to him, he must bring for his sacrifice 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.
He will lay his hand on the head of the goat and kill it in the place where they kill the burnt offering before Yahweh. This 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.
The priest will take the blood of the sin offering with his finger and put it on the horns of the altar for burnt offerings, and he will pour out its blood 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.
He will burn all the fat on the altar, just like the fat of the sacrifice of peace offerings. The priest will make atonement for the ruler concerning his sin, and the ruler will be forgiven.
27 “‘Ngati munthu wamba achimwa mosadziwa nachita zimene ndi zoletsedwa ndi Yehova, ndiye kuti wapalamula.
If anyone of the common people sins without intending to sin, doing any of the things which Yahweh has commanded him not to be done, and when he realizes his guilt,
28 Ndipo ngati wauzidwa za tchimo limene wachita, abweretse mbuzi yayikazi yopanda chilema kuti ikhale chopereka chopepesera tchimo.
then his sin which he has committed is made known to him, then he will bring a goat for his sacrifice, a female without blemish, for the sin that he has committed.
29 Asanjike dzanja lake pamutu pa mbuziyo ndipo ayiphe pamalo pamene amaphera chopereka chopsereza.
He will lay his hand on the head of the sin offering and kill the sin offering at 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.
The priest will take some of the blood with his finger and put it on the horns of the altar for burnt offerings. He will pour out all the rest of the blood 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.
He will cut away all the fat, just as the fat is cut away from off the sacrifice of peace offerings. The priest will burn it on the altar to produce a sweet aroma for Yahweh. The priest will make atonement for the man, and he will be forgiven.
32 “‘Ngati munthu apereka mwana wankhosa ngati chopereka chopepesera tchimo lake, abwere ndi mwana wankhosa wamkazi wopanda chilema.
If the man brings a lamb as his sacrifice for a sin offering, he will bring a female without blemish.
33 Asanjike dzanja lake pa mutu wa mwana wankhosayo ndipo amuphe pamalo pamene amaphera chopereka chopsereza.
He will lay his hand on the head of the sin offering and kill it for a sin offering at 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.
The priest will take some of the blood of the sin offering with his finger and put it on the horns of the altar for burnt offerings, and he will pour out all its blood 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.
He will cut away all the fat, just as the fat of the lamb is cut away from the sacrifice of peace offerings, and the priest will burn it on the altar on top of the offerings of Yahweh made by fire. The priest will make atonement for him for the sin he has committed, and the man will be forgiven.
