Leviticus 11
1 And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying,
Yehova anayankhula ndi Mose ndi Aaroni kuti,
2 Speak you to the sons of Israel, saying, These are the beasts which you shall eat of all beasts that are upon the earth.
“Awuze Aisraeli kuti, ‘Nyama zomwe mukhoza kudya mwa nyama zonse za dziko lapansi ndi izi:
3 Every beast parting the hoof and making divisions of two claws, and chewing the cud amongst beasts, these you shall eat.
Nyama iliyonse imene ili ndi chipondero chogawikana pakati ndi yobzikula mukhoza kudya.
4 But of these you shall not eat, of those that chew the cud, and of those that part the hoofs, and divide claws; the camel, because it chews the cud, but does not divide the hoof, this is unclean to you.
“‘Koma pali nyama zina zimene zimabzikula kokha kapena ndi zogawikana zipondero zimene simukuyenera kudya. Nyama zimenezi ndi ngamira, ngakhale imabzikula ilibe zipondero zogawikana. Choncho ndi yodetsedwa, musadye.
5 And the rabbit, because it chews the cud, but does not divide the hoof, this is unclean to you.
Ina ndi mbira, ngakhale imabzikula, zipondero zake nʼzosagawikana. Choncho ndi yodetsedwa, musadye.
6 And the hare, because it does not chew the cud, and does not divide the hoof, this is unclean to you.
Inanso ndi kalulu, ngakhale amabzikula, zipondero zake nʼzosagawikana. Choncho ndi wodetsedwa, musadye.
7 And the swine, because this [animal] divides the hoof, and makes claws of the hoof, and it does not chew the cud, is unclean to you.
Nkhumba simabzikula ngakhale ili ndi zipondero zogawikana. Choncho ndi yodetsedwa, musadye.
8 You shall not eat of their flesh, and you shall not touch their carcases; these are unclean to you.
Musamadye nyama yake kapena kukhudza imene yafa chifukwa ndi yodetsedwa.
9 And these [are] what you shall eat of all that are in the waters: all things that have fins and scales in the waters, and in the seas, and in the brooks, these you shall eat.
“‘Mwa zamoyo zonse zimene zimakhala mʼmadzi a mʼnyanja ndi a mʼmitsinje mukhoza kudya chilichonse chimene chili ndi minga ya pa msana ndi mamba.
10 And all things which have not fins or scales in the water, or in the seas, and in the brooks, of all which the waters produce, and of every soul living in the water, are an abomination; and they shall be abominations to you.
Koma zamoyo zonse za mʼnyanja kapena za mʼmitsinje zimene zilibe minga ya pa msana ndi mamba, kaya ndi tizirombo tonse ta mʼmadzi ndi zamoyo zonse zopezeka mʼmenemo ndi zodetsedwa kwa inu.
11 You shall not eat of their flesh, and you shall abhor their carcases.
Pakuti zimenezi ndi zodetsedwa kwa inu, nyama yake musadye, ndipo zikafa zikhalebe zodetsedwa kwa inu.
12 And all things that have not fins or scales of those that are in the waters, these are an abomination to you.
Chamoyo chilichonse cha mʼmadzi chimene chilibe minga ya pa msana kapena mamba ndi chodetsedwa kwa inu.
13 And these are the things which you shall abhor of birds, and they shall not be eaten, they are an abomination: the eagle and the ossifrage, and the sea-eagle.
“‘Mbalame zimene simukuyenera kudya chifukwa ndi zodetsedwa ndi izi: mphungu, nkhwazi, mwimba,
14 And the vulture, and the kite, and the like to it;
nankapakapa, akamtema a mitundu yonse,
15 and the sparrow, and the owl, and the cormorant, and the like to it:
akhungubwi a mitundu yonse,
16 and every raven, and the birds like it, and the hawk and his like,
kadzidzi wamphondo, kadzidzi wodzuma, chipudo ndi mtundu uliwonse wa akabawi
17 and the night-raven and the cormorant and the stork,
kadzidzi wamngʼono, chiswankhono ndi mantchichi,
18 and the red-bill, and the pelican, and swan,
tsekwe, vuwo, dembo,
19 and the heron, and the lapwing, and the like to it, and the hoopoe and the bat.
indwa, zimeza za mitundu yonse, nsadzu ndi mleme.
20 And all winged creatures that creep, which go upon four feet, are abominations to you.
“‘Zowuluka zonse za miyendo inayi ndi zodetsedwa.
21 But these you shall eat of the creeping winged animals, which go upon four feet, which have legs above their feet, to leap with on the earth.
Komabe mwa zowuluka zokhala ndi miyendo inayi zimene mukhoza kudya ndi zokhazo zimene zili ndi miyendo yolumphira.
22 And these of them you shall eat: the caterpillar and his like, and the attacus and his like, and the cantharus and his like, and the locust and his like.
Pa zimenezo mungathe kudya izi: dzombe la mitundu yonse, atsokonombwe a mitundu yonse, nkhululu za mitundu yonse, ndi ziwala za mitundu yonse.
23 Every creeping thing from amongst the birds, which has four feet, is an abomination to you.
Koma za mapiko zina zonse zokhala ndi miyendo inayi muzitenge kukhala zodetsedwa kwa inu.
24 And by these you shall be defiled; every one that touches their carcases shall be unclean till the evening.
“‘Zimenezi zidzakudetsani. Aliyense wozikhudza zitafa adzakhala wodetsedwa mpaka madzulo.
25 And every one that takes of their dead bodies shall wash his garments, and shall be unclean till the evening.
Aliyense wonyamula chiwalo chilichonse cha nyama zakufazo ayenera kuchapa zovala zake, ndipo adzakhala wodetsedwa mpaka madzulo.
26 And whichever amongst the beasts divides the hoof and makes claws, and does not chew the cud, shall be unclean to you; every one that touches their dead bodies shall be unclean till evening.
“‘Nyama iliyonse imene ili ndi ziboda zogawikana koma mapazi ake wosagawikana, kapena imene sibzikula muyiyese yodetsedwa kwa inu ndipo munthu aliyense akakhudza nyama yakufayo, adzakhala wodetsedwa.
27 And every one amongst all the wild beasts that moves upon its fore feet, which goes on all four, is unclean to you; every one that touches their dead bodies shall be unclean till evening.
Mwa nyama zonse zoyenda ndi miyendo inayi, nyama zonse zokhala ndi zikhadabo kuphazi muzitenge kukhala zodetsedwa ndipo aliyense wozikhudza zitafa adzakhala wodetsedwa mpaka madzulo.
28 And he that takes of their dead bodies shall wash his garments, and shall be unclean till evening: these are unclean to you.
Aliyense wonyamula nyamazi zitafa ayenera kuchapa zovala zake, ndipo adzakhala wodetsedwa mpaka madzulo. Zimenezi ndi zodetsedwa kwa inu.
29 And these [are] unclean to you of reptiles upon the earth, the weasel, and the mouse, and the lizard,
“‘Mwa nyama zokwawa, zimene zili zodetsedwa kwa inu ndi izi: likongwe, mbewa, msambulu za mitundu yonse,
30 the ferret, and the chameleon, and the evet, and the newt, and the mole.
gondwa, mngʼazi, buluzi, dududu ndi nanzikambe.
31 These are unclean to you of all the reptiles which are on the earth; every one who touches their carcases shall be unclean till evening.
Mwa nyama zonse zoyenda pansi, zimenezi ndi zodetsedwa kwa inu. Munthu aliyense wozikhudza zitafa adzakhala wodetsedwa mpaka madzulo.
32 And on whatever one of their dead bodies shall fall it shall be unclean; whatever wooden vessel, or garment, or skin, or sack it may be, every vessel in which work should be done, shall be dipped in water, and shall be unclean till evening; and [then] it shall be clean.
Iliyonse mwa nyama zimenezi ikafa ndi kugwera pa chiwiya chilichonse, kaya chimagwira ntchito yotani, kaya ndi chopangidwa ndi mtengo, kaya ndi cha nsalu, kaya ndi cha chikopa kapena chiguduli chiwiyacho chidzakhala chodetsedwa. Muchiviyike mʼmadzi chiwiyacho komabe chidzakhala chodetsedwa mpaka madzulo, ndipo kenaka chidzakhala choyeretsedwa.
33 And every earthen vessel into which one of these things shall fall, whatever is inside it, shall be unclean, and it shall be broken.
Tsono nyama ina iliyonse mwa zimenezi ikagwera mʼmbiya ya dothi, ndiye kuti chilichonse cha mʼmbiyamo chidzakhala chodetsedwa, ndipo muyenera kuswa mbiyayo.
34 And all food that is eaten, on which water shall come [from such a vessel], shall be unclean; and every beverage which is drunk in any [such] vessel, shall be unclean.
Chakudya chilichonse chimene mungadye chikakhala kuti chathiridwa mʼmbiyamo, ndiye kuti chakudyacho chidzakhala chodetsedwa, ndipo madzi akumwa wochokera mʼmbiya zotere ndi wodetsedwa.
35 And every thing on which there shall fall of their dead bodies shall be unclean; ovens and stands for jars shall be broken down: these are unclean, and they shall be unclean to you.
Chiwalo chilichonse cha nyama yakufa chikagwera pa chinthu chilichonse kaya pa uvuni, kapena pa mʼphika, ndiye kuti zinthuzo zidzakhala zodetsedwa, ndipo ziphwanyidwe popeza ndi zodetsedwa.
36 Only [if the water be] of fountains of water, or a pool, or confluence of water, it shall be clean; but he that touches their carcases shall be unclean.
Koma kasupe kapena chitsime chamadzi chidzakhala choyeretsedwa ngakhale kuti chilichonse chokhudza nyama yakufayo chidzakhala chodetsedwa. Zimenezi muzitenge kukhala zodetsedwa.
37 And if one of their carcases should fall upon any sowing seed which shall be sown, it shall be clean.
Chiwalo chilichonse cha nyama yakufayo chikagwera pa mbewu zimene akuti adzale, mbewu zimenezo zidzakhalabe zabwino.
38 But if water be poured on any seed, and one of their dead bodies fall upon it, it is unclean to you.
Koma mbewuzo zikakhala zonyowa ndi madzi, ndipo chiwalo chilichonse cha nyama zakufazo chikagwera pa mbewuzo, mbewuzo zikhale zodetsedwa kwa inu.
39 And if one of the cattle die, which it is lawful for you to eat, he that touches their carcases shall be unclean till evening.
“‘Ngati nyama imene mumaloledwa kudya yafa yokha, ndiye kuti aliyense wokhudza nyama yakufayo adzakhala wodetsedwa mpaka madzulo.
40 And he that eats of their carcases shall wash his garments, and be unclean till evening; and he that carries any of their carcases shall wash his garments, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean till evening.
Aliyense amene adyako nyama yakufayo achape zovala zake, ndipo adzakhala wodetsedwa mpaka madzulo. Aliyense amene wanyamula nyama yakufayo ayenera kuchapa zovala zake, ndipo adzakhala wodetsedwa mpaka madzulo.
41 And every reptile that creeps on the earth, this shall be an abomination to you; it shall not be eaten.
“‘Chinthu chilichonse chokwawa pansi ndi chonyansa, simuyenera kudya.
42 And every [animal] that creeps on its belly, and every one that goes on four [feet] continually, which abounds with feet amongst all the reptiles creeping upon the earth—you shall not eat it, for it is an abomination to you.
Musadye chilichonse chokwawa pansi, choyenda chamimba kapena choyenda ndi miyendo inayi kapenanso yambiri popeza ndi chodetsedwa.
43 And you shall not defile your souls with any of the reptiles that creep upon the earth, and you shall not be polluted with them, and you shall not be unclean by them.
Musadzisandutse nokha odetsedwa ndi chokwawa chilichonse. Musadziyipitse nazo, kuti mukhale odetsedwa.
44 For I am the Lord your God; and you shall be sanctified, and you shall be holy, because I the Lord your God am holy; and you shall not defile your souls with any of the reptiles creeping upon the earth.
Ine ndine Yehova Mulungu wanu, choncho dziyeretseni kuti mukhale woyera, chifukwa Ine ndine woyera. Musadzisandutse odetsedwa ndi chokwawa chilichonse.
45 For I am the Lord who brought you up out of the land of Egypt to be your God; and you shall be holy, for I the Lord am holy.
Ine ndine Yehova amene ndinakutulutsani ku Igupto kuti ndikhale Mulungu wanu. Tsono mukhale woyera, chifukwa Ine ndine woyera.
46 This is the law concerning beasts and birds and every living creature moving in the water, and every living creature creeping on the earth;
“‘Amenewa ndi malamulo onena za nyama, mbalame, chamoyo chilichonse choyenda mʼmadzi ndiponso chamoyo chilichonse chokwawa.
47 to distinguish between the unclean and the clean; and between those that bring forth alive, such as should be eaten, and those that bring forth alive, such as should not be eaten.
Muzisiyanitsa pakati pa chodetsedwa ndi choyeretsedwa, komanso pakati pa zomwe mutha kudya ndi zomwe simuyenera kudya.’”
