< Leviticus 5 >
1 And if a soul sin, and hear the voice of swearing, and he is a witness or has seen or been conscious, if he do not report it, he shall bear his iniquity.
“‘Ngati munthu anayitanidwa ku bwalo kuti akachitire umboni pa zimene anaziona kapena kuzimva koma iye nʼkukana kuchitira umboni, munthu ameneyo wachimwa ndipo ayenera kulangidwa.
2 That soul which shall touch any unclean thing, or carcase, or [that which is] unclean being taken of beasts, or the dead bodies of abominable [reptiles] which are unclean, or carcases of unclean cattle,
“‘Munthu akakhudza chinthu chilichonse chodetsedwa, monga nyama yakufa ya mʼthengo, kapena chiweto chakufa kapenanso chokwawa chakufa, ngakhale iyeyo wachikhudza mosadziwa, wasanduka wodetsedwa ndipo wachimwa.
3 or should touch the uncleanness of a man, or whatever kind, which he may touch and be defiled by, and it should have escaped him, but afterwards he should know, —then he shall have transgressed.
“‘Munthu akakhudza choyipitsa munthu cha mtundu uliwonse, ndipo pochikhudzapo ndi kuyipitsidwa nacho mosadziwa, munthuyo adzakhala wopalamula akangodziwa chimene wachitacho.
4 That unrighteous soul, which determines with his lips to do evil or to do good according to whatever a man may determine with an oath, and it shall have escaped his notice, and he shall [afterwards] know [it], and [so] he should sin in some one of these things:
“‘Munthu akalumbira mofulumira kapena mosasamala kuti adzachita chinthu, choyipa kapena chabwino, ngakhale kuti wachita izi mosadziwa kuti nʼkulakwa, pamene wazindira kulakwa kwake, iye adzakhalabe wopalamula akangodziwa chimene wachitacho.
5 —then shall he declare his sin in the tings wherein he has sinned by that sin.
“‘Pamene munthu wazindikira kuti wachimwa motere, awulule tchimo limene wachitalo.
6 And he shall bring for his transgressions against the Lord, for his sin which he has sinned, a ewe lamb of the flock, or a kid of the goats, for a sin-offering; and the priest shall make an atonement for him for his sin which he has sinned, and his sin shall be forgiven him.
Pambuyo pake, munthuyo abwere kwa Yehova ndi mwana wankhosa wamkazi kapena mbuzi kuti ikhale chopereka chopepesera tchimo ndipo wansembe achite mwambo wopepesera tchimo lomwe wachitalo. Tsono wansembe achite mwambo wopepesera tchimo la munthuyo.
7 And if he can’t afford a sheep, he shall bring for his sin which he has sinned, two turtledoves or two young pigeons to the Lord; one for a sin-offering, and the other for a burnt offering.
“‘Ngati munthuyo alibe mwana wankhosa, abweretse njiwa ziwiri kapena nkhunda ziwiri kwa Yehova ngati chopereka chopepesera tchimo lake. Imodzi ikhale nsembe yopepesera tchimo, ndipo inayo ikhale nsembe yopsereza.
8 And he shall bring them to the priest, and the priest shall bring the sin-offering first; and the priest shall pinch off the head from the neck, and shall not divide the body.
Tsono abwere nazo kwa wansembe, ndipo wansembeyo ayambe wapereka mbalame imodzi ngati yopepesera tchimo. Apotole khosi koma osayidula mutu,
9 And he shall sprinkle of the blood of the sin-offering on the side of the altar, but the rest of the blood he shall drop at the foot of the altar, for it is a sin-offering.
kenaka awaze magazi a chopereka chopepesera tchimocho mʼmbali mwa guwa. Magazi ena onse awathire pa tsinde la guwa. Imeneyi ndi nsembe yopepesera tchimo.
10 And he shall make the second a whole burnt offering, as it is fit; and the priest shall make atonement for his sin which he has sinned, and it shall be forgiven him.
Pambuyo pake wansembe apereke mbalame inayo kuti ikhale chopereka chopsereza potsata mwambo wake. Wansembe atatha kupereka nsembe yopepesera tchimo limene munthu uja wachita, wochimwayo adzakhululukidwa.
11 And if he can’t afford a pair of turtledoves, or two young pigeons, then shall he bring as his gift for his sin, the tenth part of an ephah of fine flour for a sin-offering; he shall not pour oil upon it, nor shall he put frankincense upon it, because it is a sin-offering.
“‘Koma ngati munthuyo alibe njiwa ziwiri kapena nkhunda ziwiri, abweretse ufa wosalala wokwanira kilogalamu imodzi kuti ukhale chopereka chopepesera tchimo limene wachita. Asathiremo mafuta kapena lubani chifukwa ndi chopereka chopepesera tchimo.
12 And he shall bring it to the priest; and the priest having taken a handful of it, shall lay the memorial of it on the altar of whole burnt offerings to the Lord; it is a sin-offering.
Abweretse ufawo kwa wansembe ndipo wansembeyo atapeko dzanja limodzi kuti ukhale ufa wachikumbutso ndi kuwutentha pa guwa pamodzi ndi chopereka chopsereza kwa Yehova. Imeneyi ndi nsembe yopepesera tchimo.
13 And the priest shall make atonement for him for his sin, which he has sinned in one of these things, and it shall be forgiven him; and that which is left shall be the priest's, as an offering of fine flour.
Umu ndi mmene wansembe adzachitire mwambo wopepesera machimo ena aliwonse amene munthu wachita, ndipo munthuyo adzakhululukidwa. Zopereka zonse zotsala zidzakhala za wansembeyo monga momwe amachitira ndi chopereka chachakudya.’”
14 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
Yehova anawuza Mose kuti,
15 The soul which shall be really unconscious, and shall sin unwillingly in any of the holy things of the Lord, shall even bring to the Lord for his transgression, a ram of the flock without blemish, valued according to shekels of silver according to the shekel of the sanctuary, for his [transgression] wherein he transgressed.
“Munthu akachita zinthu mosakhulupirika, nachimwa mosadziwa posapereka zinthu zopatulika zofunika kwa Yehova, munthuyo apereke kwa Yehova nsembe yopepesera machimo ake. Nsembeyo ikhale nkhosa yayimuna yopanda chilema ndipo mtengo wake ukhale wokwana masekeli oyenera a siliva pakawerengedwe ka ku Nyumba ya Mulungu. Imeneyi ndi nsembe yopepesera kupalamula.
16 And he shall make compensation for that wherein he has sinned in the holy things; and he shall add the fifth part to it, and give it to the priest; and the priest shall make atonement for him with the ram of transgression, and [his sin] shall be forgiven him.
Munthuyo ayenera kubweza zinthu zopatulika zimene sanaperekezo. Awonjezepo chimodzi mwa zigawo zisanu zilizonse ndi kuzipereka zonsezo kwa wansembe amene adzachita mwambo wopepesera machimo a munthuyo, popereka nkhosa yayimuna ija ngati nsembe yopepesera ndipo wochimwayo adzakhululukidwa.
17 And the soul which shall sin, and do one thing [against] any of the commandments of the Lord, which it is not right to do, and has not known it, and shall have transgressed, and shall have contracted guilt,
“Ngati munthu wachimwa mosadziwa pochita chilichonse chimene Yehova salola, munthuyo ndi wopalamula ndithu, ndipo ayenera kulangidwa.
18 he shall even bring a ram without blemish from the flock, [valued] at a price of silver for his transgression to the priest; and the priest shall make atonement for his trespass of ignorance, wherein he ignorantly trespassed, and he knew it not; and it shall be forgiven him.
Abwere kwa wansembe ndi chopereka chopepesera kupalamula kwake. Chopereka chikhale nkhosa yayimuna yopanda chilema ndipo mtengo wake ukhale woyenera nsembe yopepesera kupalamula kumene anachimwa mosadziwako, ndipo munthuyo adzakhululukidwa.
19 For he has surely been guilty of transgression before the Lord.
Imeneyi ndi nsembe yopepesera kupalamula popeza munthuyo wapezeka wolakwa pamaso pa Yehova.”
