Leviticus 4

1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,

Bwana akamwambia Mose,

2 Speak to the children of Israel, saying, If a soul shall sin unwillingly before the Lord, in any of the commandments of the Lord concerning things which he ought not to do, and shall do some of them;

“Waambie Waisraeli: ‘Mtu yeyote afanyapo dhambi bila kukusudia na akatenda lile lililokatazwa katika amri yoyote ya Bwana:

3 if the anointed priest sin so as to cause the people to sin, then shall he bring for his sin, which he has sinned, an unblemished calf of the herd to the Lord for his sin.

“‘Ikiwa kuhani aliyetiwa mafuta amefanya dhambi na kuwaletea watu hatia, lazima alete kwa Bwana fahali mchanga asiye na dosari, kuwa sadaka ya dhambi kwa ajili ya dhambi aliyotenda.

4 And he shall bring the calf to the door of the tabernacle of witness before the Lord, and he shall put his hand on the head of the calf before the Lord, and shall kill the calf in the presence of the Lord.

Atamkabidhi huyo fahali kwenye ingilio la Hema la Kukutania mbele za Bwana. Ataweka mkono wake juu ya kichwa cha huyo fahali na kumchinja mbele za Bwana.

5 And the anointed priest who has been consecrated having received of the blood of the calf, shall then bring it into the tabernacle of witness.

Kisha kuhani huyo aliyetiwa mafuta atachukua sehemu ya damu ya huyo fahali na kuileta katika Hema la Kukutania.

6 And the priest shall dip his finger into the blood, and sprinkle of the blood seven times before the Lord, over against the holy veil.

Atachovya kidole chake katika hiyo damu na kuinyunyiza sehemu yake mara saba mbele za Bwana mbele ya pazia la mahali patakatifu.

7 And the priest shall put of the blood of the calf on the horns of the altar of the compound incense which is before the Lord, which is in the tabernacle of witness; and all the blood of the calf shall he pour out by the foot of the altar of whole burnt offerings, which is by the doors of the tabernacle of witness.

Kisha kuhani atatia sehemu ya hiyo damu juu ya pembe za madhabahu ya kufukizia uvumba wenye harufu nzuri iliyoko mbele za Bwana katika Hema la Kukutania. Damu iliyobaki ya huyo fahali ataimwaga chini ya hayo madhabahu ya kuteketezea sadaka kwenye ingilio la Hema la Kukutania.

8 and all the fat of the calf of the sin-offering shall he take off from it; the fat that covers the inwards, and all the fat that is on the inwards,

Atayaondoa mafuta yote ya fahali huyo wa sadaka ya dhambi, mafuta yale yanayofunika sehemu za ndani au zile zinazounganika nazo,

9 and the two kidneys, and the fat that is upon them, which is on the thighs, and the caul that is on the liver with the kidneys, them shall he take away,

figo zote mbili na mafuta yaliyo juu yake karibu na kiuno na yale yanayofunika ini ambayo atayaondoa pamoja na figo zote,

10 as he takes it away from the calf of the sacrifice of peace-offering, so shall the priest offer it on the altar of burnt offering.

kama vile mafuta yanayoondolewa kutoka kwenye maksai aliyetolewa sadaka ya amani. Kisha kuhani ataviteketeza juu ya madhabahu ya sadaka ya kuteketezwa.

11 And [they shall take] the skin of the calf, and all his flesh with the head and the extremities and the belly and the dung,

Lakini ngozi ya huyo fahali na nyama zake zote, pamoja na kichwa na miguu yake, sehemu za ndani na matumbo,

12 and they shall carry out the whole calf out of the camp into a clean place, where they pour out the ashes, and they shall consume it there on wood with fire: it shall be burnt on the ashes poured out.

yaani sehemu nyingine zote zilizobaki za huyo fahali, lazima azitoe nje ya kambi mpaka mahali palipo safi kiibada, ambapo majivu hutupwa, naye atamchoma kwa moto juu ya kuni zilizoko juu ya lundo la majivu.

13 And if the whole congregation of Israel trespass ignorantly, and a thing should escape the notice of the congregation, and they should do one thing forbidden of any of the commands of the Lord, which ought not to be done, and should transgress:

“‘Ikiwa jumuiya yote ya Israeli watatenda dhambi pasipo kukusudia na kufanya lile lililokatazwa katika amri yoyote ya Bwana, hata kama jumuiya haifahamu juu ya jambo hilo, wana hatia.

14 and the sin wherein they have sinned should become known to them, then shall the congregation bring an unblemished calf of the herd for a sin-offering, and they shall bring it to the doors of the tabernacle of witness.

Wanapotambua kuhusu dhambi waliyoitenda, lazima kusanyiko lilete fahali mchanga kuwa sadaka ya dhambi na kuikabidhi mbele ya Hema la Kukutania.

15 And the elders of the congregation shall lay their hands on the head of the calf before the Lord, and they shall kill the calf before the Lord.

Wazee wa jumuiya wataweka mikono yao juu ya kichwa cha huyo fahali aliye mbele za Bwana, naye fahali atachinjwa mbele za Bwana.

16 And the anointed priest shall bring in of the blood of the calf into the tabernacle of witness.

Kisha kuhani aliyetiwa mafuta ataiingiza sehemu ya damu ya huyo fahali ndani ya Hema la Kukutania.

17 And the priest shall dip his finger into some of the blood of the calf, and shall sprinkle it seven times before the Lord, in front of the veil of the sanctuary.

Atachovya kidole chake kwenye damu na kuinyunyiza mara saba mbele za Bwana mbele ya hilo pazia.

18 And the priest shall put some of the blood on the horns of the altar of the incense of composition, which is before the Lord, which is in the tabernacle of witness; and he shall pour out all the blood at the bottom of the altar of whole burnt offerings, which is by the door of the tabernacle of witness.

Atatia sehemu ya hiyo damu juu ya pembe za madhabahu yaliyo mbele za Bwana katika Hema la Kukutania. Damu iliyobaki ataimwaga chini ya madhabahu ya kuteketezea sadaka, penye ingilio la Hema la Kukutania.

19 And he shall take away all the fat from it, and shall offer it up on the altar.

Atayaondoa mafuta yote ya yule fahali na kuyateketeza juu ya madhabahu,

20 And he shall do to the calf as he did to the calf of the sin-offering, so shall it be done; and the priest shall make atonement for them, and the trespass shall be forgiven them.

naye atamfanyia fahali huyu kama alivyomfanyia yule fahali mwingine wa sadaka ya dhambi. Kwa njia hii kuhani atawafanyia watu upatanisho, nao watasamehewa.

21 And they shall carry forth the calf whole without the camp, and they shall burn the calf as they burnt the former calf: it is the sin-offering of the congregation.

Kisha atamchukua yule fahali nje ya kambi na kumteketeza kama alivyomteketeza yule wa kwanza. Hii ni sadaka ya dhambi kwa ajili ya jumuiya.

22 And if a ruler sin, and break one of all the commands of the Lord his God, [doing the thing] which ought not to be done, unwillingly, and shall sin and trespass,

“‘Wakati kiongozi ametenda dhambi bila kukusudia na kufanya yaliyokatazwa katika amri yoyote ya Bwana Mungu wake, ana hatia.

23 and his trespass wherein he has sinned, be known to him, then shall he offer for his gift a kid of the goats, a male without blemish.

Atakapofahamishwa dhambi aliyotenda, ni lazima alete mbuzi dume asiye na dosari kama sadaka yake.

24 And he shall lay his hand on the head of the kid, and they shall kill it in the place where they kill the [victims for] whole burnt offerings before the Lord; it is a sin-offering.

Ataweka mkono wake juu ya kichwa cha yule mbuzi na kumchinja mahali pale ambapo sadaka za kuteketezwa huchinjiwa mbele za Bwana. Hii ni sadaka ya dhambi.

25 And the priest shall put some of the blood of the sin-offering with his finger on the horns of the altar of whole burnt offering; and he shall pour out all its blood by the bottom of the altar of whole burnt offerings.

Kisha kuhani atachukua sehemu ya damu ya sadaka ya dhambi kwa kidole chake na kuitia kwenye pembe za madhabahu ya sadaka ya kuteketeza, na kuimwaga damu iliyobaki chini ya madhabahu.

26 And he shall offer up all his fat on the altar, as the fat of the sacrifice of peace-offering; and the priest shall make atonement for him concerning his sin, and it shall be forgiven him.

Atayateketeza mafuta yote juu ya madhabahu, kama alivyoteketeza mafuta ya sadaka ya amani. Kwa njia hii kuhani atafanya upatanisho wa dhambi kwa ajili ya yule mtu, naye atasamehewa.

27 And if a soul of the people of the land should sin unwillingly, in doing a thing [contrary to] any of the commandments of the Lord, which ought not to be done, and shall transgress,

“‘Kama mtu katika jumuiya ametenda dhambi pasipo kukusudia na kufanya lile lililokatazwa katika amri yoyote ya Bwana, yeye ana hatia.

28 and his sin should be known to him, wherein he has sinned, then shall he bring a kid of the goats, a female without blemish shall he bring for his sin, which he has sinned.

Atakapofahamishwa dhambi yake aliyoitenda, ni lazima alete mbuzi jike asiye na dosari kama sadaka yake kwa ajili ya dhambi aliyotenda.

29 And he shall lay his hand on the head of his sin-offering, and they shall kill the kid of the sin-offering in the place where they kill the [victims for] whole burnt offerings.

Ataweka mkono wake juu ya kichwa cha sadaka ya dhambi na kumchinjia mahali pa kuteketezea sadaka.

30 And the priest shall take of its blood with his finger, and shall put it on the horns of the altar of whole burnt offerings; and all its blood he shall pour forth by the foot of the altar.

Kisha kuhani atachukua sehemu ya ile damu kwa kidole chake na kuitia kwenye pembe za madhabahu ya sadaka ya kuteketezwa na kuimwaga damu iliyobaki chini ya madhabahu.

31 And he shall take away all the fat, as the fat is taken away from the sacrifice of peace-offering, and the priest shall offer it on the altar for a smell of sweet savour to the Lord; and the priest shall make atonement for him, and [his sin] shall be forgiven him.

Atayaondoa mafuta yote, kama vile mafuta yaondolewavyo kwenye sadaka ya amani, naye kuhani atayateketeza juu ya madhabahu kama harufu nzuri ya kumpendeza Bwana. Kwa njia hii kuhani atafanya upatanisho kwa ajili yake, naye atasamehewa.

32 And if he should offer a lamb for his sin-offering, he shall offer it a female without blemish.

“‘Ikiwa ataleta mwana-kondoo kama sadaka yake ya dhambi, atamleta jike asiye na dosari.

33 And he shall lay his hand on the head of the sin-offerings, and they shall kill it in the place where they kill the [victims for] whole burnt offerings.

Ataweka mkono wake juu ya kichwa cha huyo mwana-kondoo na kumchinja kwa ajili ya sadaka ya dhambi mahali sadaka ya kuteketezwa huchinjiwa.

34 And the priest shall take of the blood of the sin-offering with his finger, and shall put it on the horns of the altar of whole burnt offerings, and he shall pour out all its blood by the bottom of the altar of whole burnt offering.

Kisha kuhani atachukua sehemu ya damu ya sadaka ya dhambi kwa kidole chake na kuitia juu ya pembe za madhabahu ya sadaka ya kuteketezwa, na ile damu iliyobaki ataimwaga chini ya madhabahu.

35 And he shall take away all his fat, as the fat of the lamb of the sacrifice of peace-offering is taken away, and the priest shall put it on the altar for a whole burnt offering to the Lord; and the priest shall make atonement for him for the sin which he sinned, and it shall be forgiven him.

Ataondoa mafuta yote, kama vile mafuta yaondolewavyo kutoka kwenye mwana-kondoo wa sadaka ya amani, naye kuhani atayateketeza juu ya madhabahu juu ya zile sadaka zilizotolewa kwa Bwana kwa moto. Kwa njia hii kuhani atafanya upatanisho kwa ajili yake kwa dhambi aliyoitenda, naye atasamehewa.
