< Leviticus 10 >
1 Now Aaron’s sons Nadab and Abihu took their censers, put fire in them and added incense, and offered unauthorized fire before the LORD, contrary to His command.
Ana a Aaroni, Nadabu ndi Abihu, aliyense anatenga chofukizira lubani chake nayikamo makala a moto ndi kuthiramo lubani. Iwo anapereka pamaso pa Yehova moto wachilendo, moto umene Yehova sanawalamule.
2 So fire came out from the presence of the LORD and consumed them, and they died in the presence of the LORD.
Choncho moto unatuluka pamaso pa Yehova ndi kuwapsereza, ndipo anafa pamaso pa Yehova.
3 Then Moses said to Aaron, “This is what the LORD meant when He said: ‘To those who come near Me I will show My holiness, and in the sight of all the people I will reveal My glory.’” But Aaron remained silent.
Pamenepo Mose anawuza Aaroni kuti, “Pajatu Yehova ananena kuti, “‘Kwa iwo amene amandiyandikira ndidzaonetsa ulemerero wanga; pamaso pa anthu onse ndidzalemekezedwa.’” Aaroni anakhala chete wosayankhula.
4 Moses summoned Mishael and Elzaphan, sons of Aaron’s uncle Uzziel, and said to them, “Come here; carry the bodies of your cousins outside the camp, away from the front of the sanctuary.”
Mose anayitana Misaeli ndi Elizafani, ana a Uzieli, abambo angʼono a Aaroni, ndipo anawawuza kuti, “Bwerani kuno mudzachotse abale anuwa pa malo wopatulika ndi kuwatulutsira kunja kwa msasa.”
5 So they came forward and carried them, still in their tunics, outside the camp, as Moses had directed.
Choncho anabwera atavala minjiro yawo ndipo anawatenga ndi kuwatulutsa kunja kwa msasawo monga momwe Mose analamulira.
6 Then Moses said to Aaron and his sons Eleazar and Ithamar, “Do not let your hair become disheveled and do not tear your garments, or else you will die, and the LORD will be angry with the whole congregation. But your brothers, the whole house of Israel, may mourn on account of the fire that the LORD has ignited.
Ndipo Mose anawuza Aaroni ndi ana ake Eliezara ndi Itamara kuti, “Musalileke tsitsi lanu nyankhalala ndipo musangʼambe zovala zanu kuti mungafe, ndi mkwiyo wa Yehova ungagwere anthu onsewa. Koma abale anu okha, kutanthauza fuko lonse la Israeli ndiwo ayenera kulira omwalira aja amene Yehova wawapsereza ndi moto.
7 You shall not go outside the entrance to the Tent of Meeting, or you will die, for the LORD’s anointing oil is on you.” So they did as Moses instructed.
Musatuluke kunja kwa tenti ya msonkhano, mungafe, chifukwa munadzozedwa ndi mafuta a Yehova kukhala ansembe.” Choncho iwo anachita monga Mose ananenera.
8 Then the LORD said to Aaron,
Pambuyo pake Yehova anayankhula ndi Aaroni nati,
9 “You and your sons are not to drink wine or strong drink when you enter the Tent of Meeting, or else you will die; this is a permanent statute for the generations to come.
“Iwe ndi ana ako musamamwe vinyo kapena chakumwa chilichonse choledzeretsa pamene mukulowa mu tenti ya msonkhano kuti mungafe. Ili ndi lamulo lamuyaya pa mibado yanu yonse.
10 You must distinguish between the holy and the common, between the clean and the unclean,
Muzisiyanitsa pakati pa zinthu zopatulika ndi zinthu wamba, pakati pa zinthu zodetsedwa ndi zinthu zoyeretsedwa,
11 so that you may teach the Israelites all the statutes that the LORD has given them through Moses.”
ndipo muyenera kuphunzitsa Aisraeli onse malamulo amene Yehova wakupatsani kudzera mwa Mose.”
12 And Moses said to Aaron and his remaining sons, Eleazar and Ithamar, “Take the grain offering that remains from the offerings made by fire to the LORD and eat it without leaven beside the altar, because it is most holy.
Mose anawuza Aaroni ndi ana ake otsalawo, Eliezara ndi Itamara kuti, “Tengani zopereka zachakudya zopanda yisiti zimene zatsala pa nsembe zopsereza za kwa Yehova ndipo muzidye pafupi ndi guwa pakuti ndi zopatulika kwambiri.
13 You shall eat it in a holy place, because it is your share and your sons’ share of the offerings made by fire to the LORD; for this is what I have been commanded.
Muzidye pa malo wopatulika chifukwa zimenezi ndi gawo lako ndi la ana ako pa zopereka zopsereza kwa Yehova. Izitu ndi zimene Yehova anandilamulira.
14 And you and your sons and daughters may eat the breast of the wave offering and the thigh of the contribution in a ceremonially clean place, because these portions have been assigned to you and your children from the peace offerings of the sons of Israel.
Koma iwe pamodzi ndi ana ako aamuna ndi aakazi muzidya chidale chimene chinaweyulidwa ndi ntchafu zimene zinaperekedwa nsembe. Muzidye pamalo woyeretsedwa. Zimenezi zaperekedwa kwa iwe ndi ana ako monga gawo lanu pa zopereka zachiyanjano zimene apereka Aisraeli.
15 They are to bring the thigh of the contribution and the breast of the wave offering, together with the fat portions of the offerings made by fire, to wave as a wave offering before the LORD. It will belong permanently to you and your children, as the LORD has commanded.”
Ntchafu imene inaperekedwayo ndi chidale chomwe chinaweyulidwacho abwere nazo pamodzi ndi nsembe ya mafuta ya Yehova yotentha pa moto, ndipo uziweyule kuti zikhale zopereka zoweyula pamaso pa Yehova. Zimenezi zizikhala zako ndi ana ako nthawi zonse monga walamulira Yehova.”
16 Later, Moses searched carefully for the goat of the sin offering, and behold, it had been burned up. He was angry with Eleazar and Ithamar, Aaron’s remaining sons, and asked,
Pambuyo pake Mose anafunafuna mbuzi ya nsembe yopepesera machimo koma anapeza kuti anayitentha kale. Apa Mose anakalipira Eliezara ndi Itamara, ana a Aaroni otsala aja nati,
17 “Why didn’t you eat the sin offering in the holy place? For it is most holy; it was given to you to take away the guilt of the congregation by making atonement for them before the LORD.
“Chifukwa chiyani simunadyere pamalo wopatulika nsembe yopepesera machimo ija? Kodi imene ija siyopatulika? Kodi Yehova sanapereke nyamayo kwa inu kuti muchotse machimo a mpingo wonse powachitira mwambo wa nsembe yopepesera machimo pamaso pa Yehova?
18 Since its blood was not brought inside the holy place, you should have eaten it in the sanctuary area, as I commanded.”
Pakuti magazi ake sanalowe nawo ku Malo Wopatulika, mukanadya nyama ya mbuziyo pa malo wopatulikawo monga Yehova analamulira.”
19 But Aaron replied to Moses, “Behold, this very day they presented their sin offering and their burnt offering before the LORD. Since these things have happened to me, if I had eaten the sin offering today, would it have been acceptable in the sight of the LORD?”
Aaroni anamuyankha Mose kuti, “Lero anthu apereka nsembe yawo yopepesera machimo ndiponso nsembe yawo yopsereza pamaso pa Yehova komabe zinthu zoterezi zandichitikira. Kodi Yehova akanakondwa ndikanadya nsembe yopepesera machimo lero?”
20 And when Moses heard this explanation, he was satisfied.
Pamene Mose anamva zimenezi, anakhutira.
