Leviticus 5
1 If a soul will have sinned, and heard the voice of one testifying under oath, and he is a witness because either he has seen it himself, or he is aware of it: if he does not reveal it, he shall carry his iniquity.
Kama mtu atatenda dhambi kwa sababu hakusema ukweli wakati alipotakiwa kutoa ushahidi fulani kuhusu kile alichotakiwa, ameona au kufahamu habari zake, yeye anastahili adhabu.
2 The soul that will have touched anything unclean, either that which has been killed by a beast, or that which has died on its own, or any other creeping thing, and will have forgotten its uncleanness, he is guilty and has committed a transgression.
Au mtu akigusa kitu chochote ambacho Mungu amekitaja kuwa ni najisi hata kama ni mzoga wa wanyama wa porini au ni mzoga wa wanyama wa kufugwa au wataambaao hata kama mtu huyo hakukusudia kumgusa, yeye ni najisi na mwenye hatia.
3 And if he will have touched anything from the uncleanness of man, according to every kind of impurity by which he may be defiled, and having forgotten it, afterwards realizes it, he shall be guilty of committing a transgression.
Au amegusa kitu chochote kilicho kichafu, kwa vyovyote kama hakujua, ndipo atakuwa na hatia akijua vile.
4 The soul who swears and offers from his own lips that he would do either evil or good, and who will have bound the same with an oath and with his own words, and, having forgotten it, afterwards understands his transgression,
Au kama yeyote akiapa bila kufikiri kwa midomo yake kufanya ubaya, au kufanya vyema kwa vyovyote vile mtu ameapa kwa haraka atakapotambua atakuwa na hatia kwa vitu hivyo.
5 let him do penance for his sin,
Mtu yeyote akiwa na hatia kwa vitu hivi, lazima akiri kwa yoyote dhambi aliyotenda.
6 and let him offer from the flocks a female lamb or a she-goat, and the priest shall pray for him and for his sin.
Ndipo atakapoleta sadaka yake ya hatia mbele za Bwana kwa dhambi aliyokwisha tenda. Ataleta kondoo jike au mbuzi kutoka katika kundi lake kuwa matoleo ya dhambi, kuhani atafanya upatanisho kuhusu dhambi yake.
7 But if he is not able to offer a beast, let him offer two turtledoves or two young pigeons to the Lord, one for sin, and the other for a holocaust.
Kama hataweza kununua mwana kondoo ataleta kama sadaka ya hatia, hua wawili au makinda mawili ya njiwa kwa Bwana, mmoja kwa sadaka ya dhambi na mwingine ni sadaka ya kutekeketezwa.
8 And he shall give them to the priest, who, offering the first for sin, shall twist back its head to the little wings, so that it adheres to the neck and is not entirely broken off.
Atawaleta kwa kuhani, wa kwanza atatoa kwa ajili ya sadaka ya dhambi. Atamvunja shingo yake lakini ataacha kichwa chake kinaning'inia wala hataiondoa kabisa shingo yake katika mwili.
9 And he shall sprinkle some of its blood at the side of the altar. But whatever will remain, he shall cause it to drip down to the base, because it is for sin.
Ndipo atanyunyizia damu yake katika sehemu za madhabahu, na damu inayobaki ataimwaga chini ya madhabahu. Hii ni dhabihu ya dhambi.
10 Yet truly, the other he shall burn as a holocaust, just as is usually done. And the priest shall pray for him, and for his sin, and he shall be released from it.
Ndipo ataoa ndege wa pili kama sadaka ya kuteketezwa kama ilivyoelekezwa, na kuhani atafanya upatanisho kwa ajili ya dhambi alizokwisha kufanya, na huyo mtu atakuwa amesamehewa.
11 But if his hand is unable to offer two turtledoves or two young pigeons, he shall offer, for his sin, the tenth part of an ephah of fine wheat flour. He shall not put oil in it, nor place upon it any frankincense, because it is for sin.
Lakini kama hataweza kununua hua wawili au makinda ya njiwa mawili, ndipo ataleta kama dhabihu ya dhambi zake sehemu ya kumi ya unga laini kama sadaka ya dhambi. Asiweke mafuta wala ubani juu yake, kwa kuwa ni sadaka ya dhambi.
12 And he shall deliver it to the priest, who shall take a handful of it, and shall burn it upon the altar as a memorial for him who offered it,
Atauleta kwa kuhani, na kuhani atachukua konzi moja ya unga kama ukumbusho wa wema wa Bwana na atauweka juu ya madhabahu na kuteketeza juu ya sadaka za kuteketezwa kwa moto kwa ajili ya Bwana. Hii ni sadaka ya dhambi.
13 praying for him and making atonement. Yet truly, the remaining part he himself shall have as a gift.
Kuhani atafanya upatanisho kwa dhambi yoyote aliyofanya mtu yeyote, mtu huyo atasamehewa. Na sadaka inayobaki itakuwa ya kuhani, kama ilivyo sadaka ya nafaka.'”
14 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
Bwana akamwambia Musa, akasema,
15 If a soul, by mistake, shall have transgressed the ceremonies in those things that are sanctified to the Lord, he shall offer for his offense an immaculate ram from the flocks, such as can be bought for two shekels, according to the weight of the Sanctuary.
“Kama mtu akikiuka amri na kufanya dhambi kinyume na mambo matakatifu ya Bwana, lakini akifanya bila kukusudia ataleta sadaka ya hatia kwa Bwana. Sadaka hii itakuwa ni kondoo dume asiye na kasoro kutoka katika kundi; thamani yake halisi kifedha kulingana na shekeli ya mahali patakatifu, kama sadaka ya hatia.
16 And he shall make restitution for the damage that he has brought, and he shall add a fifth part more, delivering it to the priest, who shall pray for him while offering the ram, and he shall be released from it.
Lazima atalipa kwa Bwana kwa kile alichokosa kulingana na kitakatifu, na ataongezea moja ya tano na kumpa kuhani. Ndipo kuhani ataweka upatanisho kwa ajili yake pamoja na kondoo wa sadaka ya hatia, na mtu atakuwa amesamehewa.
17 If a soul will have sinned through ignorance, and will have done one of those things which the law of the Lord prohibits, and, being guilty of sin, understands his iniquity,
Kama mtu akitenda dhambi kwa kufanya kile ambacho Bwana aliagiza kisifanyike, hata kama hakujuwa, atakuwa na hatia na ataibeba hatia yake.
18 he shall offer from the flocks an immaculate ram to the priest, according to the measure and estimation of the sin, who shall pray for him, because he did it unknowingly, and he shall be released from it,
Lazima ataleta kondoo dume asiye na kasoro kutoka katika kundi, anayestahili thamani ya fedha, kama sadaka ya hatia kwa kuhani. Ndipo kuhani atafanya upatanisho kulingana na dhambi aliyotenda, ambayo hakujua atakuwa amesamehewa.
19 because by mistake he transgressed against the Lord.
Ni sadaka ya hatia, na amekuwa na hatia mbele za Bwana.”
