2 Ndipo anawuza Aaroni kuti, “Tenga mwana wangʼombe wamwamuna kuti akhale nsembe yako yopepesera machimo ndi nkhosa yayimuna kuti ikhale nsembe yopsereza. Zonsezi zikhale zopanda chilema ndipo uzipereke pamaso pa Yehova.
3 Kenaka uwawuze Aisraeli kuti, ‘Tengani mbuzi yayimuna kuti ikhale nsembe yopepesera machimo. Mutengenso mwana wangʼombe ndi mwana wankhosa. Zonsezi zikhale za chaka chimodzi ndi zopanda chilema kuti zikhale nsembe yopsereza.
4 Mutengenso ngʼombe yayimuna ndi nkhosa yayimuna kuti zikhale nsembe yachiyanjano zoti ziperekedwe pamaso pa Yehova. Pamodzi ndi izi mubwerenso ndi nsembe yachakudya yosakaniza ndi mafuta pakuti lero Yehova akuonekerani.’”
5 Anthu anatenga zonse zimene Mose analamula nabwera nazo pa khomo la tenti ya msonkhano. Gululo linasendera pafupi ndi kuyima pamaso pa Yehova.
6 Tsono Mose anati, “Izi ndi zimene Yehova walamula kuti muchite kuti ulemerero wa Yehova ukuonekereni.”
7 Pambuyo pake Mose anawuza Aaroni kuti, “Sendera pafupi ndi guwa ndipo upereka nsembe yako yopepesera machimo ndi nsembe yako yopsereza ndikuchita mwambo wopepesera machimo ako ndi machimo a anthu. Anthuwa apereke nsembe zawo zopepesera machimo monga momwe Yehova walamulira.”
8 Choncho Aaroni anasendera pafupi ndi guwa, napha mwana wangʼombe uja kukhala nsembe yake yopepesera machimo.
9 Ana a Aaroni anabwera ndi magazi kwa Aaroni ndipo iye anaviyika chala chake mʼmagaziwo, nawapaka pa nyanga za guwa. Magazi wotsalawo anawathira pa tsinde la guwalo.
10 Kenaka anatentha paguwapo, mafuta, impsyo pamodzi ndi mafuta amene amakuta chiwindi ngati nsembe yopepesera machimoyo, monga momwe Yehova analamulira Mose.
11 Koma nyama ndi chikopa anazitenthera kunja kwa msasa.
12 Kenaka anapha nsembe yopsereza. Ana a Aaroni atabwera ndi magazi kwa iye, Aaroniyo anawawaza mbali zonse za guwa.
13 Ana akewo anamupatsa nyama yoduladula ya nsembe yopsereza ija pamodzi ndi mutu ndipo anazitentha pa guwa.
14 Aaroni anatsuka matumbo ndi miyendo nazitentha pa guwa pamodzi ndi nsembe yopsereza ija.
15 Kenaka Aaroni anapereka zopereka za anthuwo. Anatenga mbuzi yopepesera machimo a anthuwo, yopereka chifukwa cha tchimo, nayipha ndi kuyipereka kuti ikhale yopepesera machimo monga anachitira ndi nsembe yoyamba ija.
16 Anabwera ndi nsembe yopsereza, nayipereka potsata mwambo wake.
17 Anabweranso ndi chopereka cha chakudya. Anatapa ufa dzanja limodzi ndi kutentha pa guwa, kuwonjezera pa nsembe yopsereza ya mmawa ija.
18 Tsono Aaroni anapha ngʼombe ndi nkhosa yayimuna monga nsembe yachiyanjano ya anthu. Ana ake anamupatsira magazi ndipo anawawaza mbali zonse za guwa.
19 Anamupatsiranso mafuta a ngʼombeyo ndi nkhosa yayimunayo: mchira wamafuta, mafuta wokuta matumbo, impsyo ndi mafuta wokuta chiwindi.
20 Ana a Aaroni anayika mafutawo pa zidale. Pambuyo pake Aaroni anatentha mafutawo pa guwa lansembe.
21 Koma zidale ndi ntchafu ya kumanja Aaroni anaziweyula ngati chopereka choweyula pamaso pa Yehova.
22 Kenaka Aaroni anakweza manja ake pa anthuwo nawadalitsa. Ndipo atatha kupereka nsembe yopepesera machimo, nsembe yopsereza ndi nsembe yachiyanjano, anatsika pa guwapo.
23 Ndipo Mose pamodzi ndi Aaroni analowa mu tenti ya msonkhano. Atatulukamo anadalitsa anthuwo ndipo ulemerero wa Yehova unaonekera kwa anthu onse.
24 Pomwepo moto unatuluka pamaso pa Yehova niwutentha nsembe zopsereza ndi mafuta zimene zinali pa guwa. Anthu onse ataona zimenezi anafuwula mwachimwemwe ndipo anaweramitsa nkhope zawo pansi.
