Leviticus 23
1 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
INkosi yasikhuluma kuMozisi isithi:
2 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, [Concerning] the set feasts of Jehovah, which ye shall proclaim as holy convocations — these are my set feasts.
Tshono ebantwaneni bakoIsrayeli uthi kubo: Imikhosi emisiweyo yeNkosi elizayimemezela ibe zinhlangano ezibiziweyo ezingcwele, le yimikhosi yami emisiweyo.
3 Six days shall work be done; but on the seventh day is the sabbath of rest, a holy convocation; no manner of work shall ye do: it is the sabbath to Jehovah in all your dwellings.
Umsebenzi uzakwenziwa insuku eziyisithupha; kodwa usuku lwesikhombisa lulisabatha lokuphumula, inhlangano ebiziweyo engcwele; lingenzi lamsebenzi; lulisabatha eNkosini kuyo yonke imizi yenu.
4 These are the set feasts of Jehovah, holy convocations, which ye shall proclaim in their seasons:
Le yimikhosi emisiweyo yeNkosi, inhlangano ezibiziweyo ezingcwele elizazimemezela ngesikhathi sazo esimisiweyo.
5 In the first month, on the fourteenth of the month, between the two evenings, is the passover to Jehovah.
Ngenyanga yokuqala ngolwetshumi lane lwenyanga kusihlwa kuliphasika leNkosi.
6 And on the fifteenth day of this month is the feast of unleavened bread to Jehovah; seven days shall ye eat unleavened bread.
Langosuku lwetshumi lanhlanu lwaleyonyanga kulomkhosi wesinkwa esingelamvubelo eNkosini; dlanini isinkwa esingelamvubelo insuku eziyisikhombisa.
7 On the first day ye shall have a holy convocation: no manner of servile work shall ye do.
Ngosuku lokuqala lizakuba lenhlangano ebiziweyo engcwele; lingenzi lamsebenzi wezisebenzi.
8 And ye shall present to Jehovah an offering by fire seven days; on the seventh day is a holy convocation: no manner of servile work shall ye do.
Kodwa lizanikela umnikelo owenzelwe iNkosi ngomlilo insuku eziyisikhombisa. Ngosuku lwesikhombisa kuzakuba khona inhlangano ebiziweyo engcwele; lingenzi lamsebenzi wezisebenzi.
9 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
INkosi yasikhuluma kuMozisi isithi:
10 Speak unto the children of Israel and say unto them, When ye come into the land that I give unto you, and ye reap the harvest thereof, then ye shall bring a sheaf of the first-fruits of your harvest unto the priest.
Tshono ebantwaneni bakoIsrayeli uthi kubo: Lapho selifikile elizweni engilinika lona, livune isivuno salo, lethani isithungo sezithelo zokuqala zesivuno senu kumpristi,
11 And he shall wave the sheaf before Jehovah, to be accepted for you; on the next day after the sabbath the priest shall wave it.
njalo azunguze isithungo phambi kweNkosi ukuze lemukeleke. Umpristi uzasizunguza ngosuku olulandela isabatha.
12 And ye shall offer that day when ye wave the sheaf, a he-lamb without blemish, a yearling, for a burnt-offering to Jehovah;
Ngosuku elizunguza ngalo isithungo, nikelani iwundlu elingelasici elilomnyaka owodwa, libe ngumnikelo wokutshiswa eNkosini.
13 and the oblation thereof: two tenths of fine flour mingled with oil, an offering by fire to Jehovah for a sweet odour; and the drink-offering thereof, of wine, a fourth part of a hin.
Lomnikelo wawo wokudla uzakuba zingxenye ezimbili etshumini zempuphu ecolekileyo ixubene lamafutha, ube ngumnikelo owenzelwe iNkosi ngomlilo, kube luqhatshi olumnandi; lomnikelo wawo wokunathwayo uzakuba ngowewayini, ingxenye yesine yehini.
14 And ye shall not eat bread, or roast corn, or green ears, until the same day that ye have brought the offering of your God: [it is] an everlasting statute throughout your generations in all your dwellings.
Njalo kaliyikudla isinkwa, lamabele akhanzingiweyo, lezikhwebu ezintsha, kuze kufike lona lolosuku, lize lilethe umnikelo kaNkulunkulu wenu. Kuyisimiso esilaphakade ezizukulwaneni zenu, kuyo yonke imizi yenu.
15 And ye shall count from the morning after the sabbath, from the day that ye brought the sheaf of the wave-offering, seven weeks; they shall be complete;
Njalo lizazibalela kusukela ngosuku olulandela isabatha, kusukela ngosuku elaletha ngalo isithungo somnikelo wokuzunguzwa; kuzakuba ngamasabatha ayisikhombisa apheleleyo,
16 even unto the morning after the seventh sabbath shall ye count fifty days; and ye shall present a new oblation to Jehovah.
kuze kufike usuku olulandela isabatha lesikhombisa libale insuku ezingamatshumi amahlanu; khona lizanikela umnikelo omutsha wokudla eNkosini.
17 Out of your dwellings shall ye bring two wave-loaves, of two tenths of fine flour; with leaven shall they be baken; [as] first-fruits to Jehovah.
Lethani okuvela emizini yenu izinkwa ezimbili zokuzunguzwa; zizakuba zingxenye ezimbili etshumini zempuphu ecolekileyo; zizabhakwa lemvubelo; ziyizithelo zokuqala eNkosini.
18 And ye shall present with the bread seven he-lambs without blemish, yearlings, and one young bullock, and two rams: they shall be a burnt-offering to Jehovah with their oblation, and their drink-offerings, an offering by fire of a sweet odour to Jehovah.
Njalo lizanikela kanye lesinkwa amawundlu ayisikhombisa angelasici alomnyaka owodwa, lejongosi elilodwa ithole lenkomo, lenqama ezimbili; zizakuba ngumnikelo wokutshiswa eNkosini, kanye lomnikelo wazo wokudla leminikelo yazo yokunathwayo, umnikelo owenziwe ngomlilo, kube luqhatshi olumnandi eNkosini.
19 And ye shall sacrifice one buck of the goats for a sin-offering, and two he-lambs, yearlings, for a sacrifice of peace-offering.
Lizalungisa njalo izinyane lembuzi elilodwa libe ngumnikelo wesono, lamawundlu amabili alomnyaka owodwa abe ngumhlatshelo weminikelo yokuthula.
20 And the priest shall wave them with the bread of the first-fruits as a wave-offering before Jehovah, with the two he-lambs; they shall be holy to Jehovah, for the priest.
Umpristi uzazizunguza-ke kanye lesinkwa sezithelo zokuqala zibe ngumnikelo wokuzunguzwa phambi kweNkosi, kanye lamawundlu amabili; zizakuba ngcwele eNkosini, zibe ngezompristi.
21 And ye shall make proclamation on that same day — a holy convocation shall it be unto you: no manner of servile work shall ye do: [it is] an everlasting statute in all your dwellings throughout your generations.
Lizamemezela ngalona lolosuku; kuzakuba yinhlangano ebiziweyo engcwele kini, lingenzi lamsebenzi wezisebenzi. Kuyisimiso esaphakade kuyo yonke imizi yenu ezizukulwaneni zenu.
22 And when ye reap the harvest of your land, thou shalt not in thy harvest entirely reap the corners of thy field, and the gleaning of thy harvest shalt thou not gather: thou shalt leave them unto the poor and to the stranger: I am Jehovah your God.
Lalapho livuna isivuno selizwe lakini, ekuvuneni kwakho ungaqedi emngceleni wensimu yakho; futhi ungabuthi okuseleyo kwesivuno sakho; ukutshiyele umyanga lowemzini. NgiyiNkosi uNkulunkulu wenu.
23 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
INkosi yasikhuluma kuMozisi isithi:
24 Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, In the seventh month, on the first of the month, shall ye have a rest, a memorial of blowing of trumpets, a holy convocation.
Tshono ebantwaneni bakoIsrayeli uthi: Ngenyanga yesikhombisa ngolokuqala lwenyanga kuzakuba kini yikuphumula, isikhumbuzo sokutshaywa kwezimpondo, inhlangano ebiziweyo engcwele.
25 No manner of servile work shall ye do; and ye shall present an offering by fire to Jehovah.
Lingenzi lamsebenzi wezisebenzi; kodwa nikelani umnikelo owenzelwe iNkosi ngomlilo.
26 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
INkosi yasikhuluma kuMozisi isithi:
27 Also on the tenth of this seventh month is the day of the atonement: a holy convocation shall it be unto you; and ye shall afflict your souls, and present an offering by fire to Jehovah.
Yebo, ngolwetshumi lwalinyanga yesikhombisa kuzakuba lusuku lwenhlawulo yokuthula; lizakuba lenhlangano ebiziweyo engcwele; lizathobisa imiphefumulo yenu, linikele umnikelo owenzelwe iNkosi ngomlilo.
28 And ye shall do no manner of work on that same day; for it is a day of atonement, to make atonement for you before Jehovah your God.
Langalona lolosuku lingenzi lamsebenzi, ngoba kulusuku lwenhlawulo yokuthula, ukulenzela lina inhlawulo yokuthula phambi kweNkosi uNkulunkulu wenu.
29 For every soul that is not afflicted on that same day, shall be cut off from among his peoples.
Ngoba loba yiwuphi umphefumulo ongazithobiyo ngalona lolosuku uzaqunywa usuke ebantwini bakibo.
30 And every soul that doeth any manner of work on that same day, the same soul will I destroy from among his people.
Laloba yiwuphi umphefumulo owenza loba yiwuphi umsebenzi ngalona lolosuku ngizawubhubhisa lowomphefumulo usuke phakathi kwabantu bakibo.
31 No manner of work shall ye do: [it is] an everlasting statute throughout your generations in all your dwellings.
Lingenzi lamsebenzi. Kuyisimiso esilaphakade ezizukulwaneni zenu kuyo yonke imizi yenu.
32 A sabbath of rest shall it be unto you; and ye shall afflict your souls. On the ninth of the month at even, from even unto even, shall ye celebrate your sabbath.
Lisabatha lokuphumula kini; lizathobisa imiphefumulo yenu; ngolwesificamunwemunye lwenyanga, ntambama, kusukela kusihlwa kuze kube kusihlwa, lizagcina isabatha lenu.
33 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
INkosi yasikhuluma kuMozisi isithi:
34 Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, On the fifteenth day of this seventh month is the feast of booths seven days to Jehovah.
Tshono ebantwaneni bakoIsrayeli uthi: Ngosuku lwetshumi lanhlanu lwale inyanga yesikhombisa kuzakuba lomkhosi wamadumba insuku eziyisikhombisa eNkosini.
35 On the first day there shall be a holy convocation: no manner of servile work shall ye do.
Ngosuku lokuqala kuzakuba lenhlangano ebiziweyo engcwele; lingenzi lamsebenzi wezisebenzi.
36 Seven days ye shall present an offering by fire to Jehovah; on the eighth day shall be a holy convocation unto you; and ye shall present an offering by fire to Jehovah: it is a solemn assembly; no manner of servile work shall ye do.
Insuku eziyisikhombisa lizanikela umnikelo owenzelwe iNkosi ngomlilo. Ngosuku lwesificaminwembili kuzakuba lenhlangano ebiziweyo engcwele kini, linikele umnikelo owenzelwe iNkosi ngomlilo. Kungumhlangano onzulu, lingenzi lamsebenzi wezisebenzi.
37 These are the set feasts of Jehovah, which ye shall proclaim as holy convocations, to present an offering by fire to Jehovah, a burnt-offering, and an oblation, a sacrifice, and drink-offerings, everything upon its day;
Le yimikhosi emisiweyo yeNkosi elizayimemezela ibe zinhlangano ezibiziweyo ezingcwele, ukunikela umnikelo owenzelwe iNkosi ngomlilo, umnikelo wokutshiswa, lomnikelo wokudla, umhlatshelo, leminikelo yokunathwayo, kube yilokho lalokho ngosuku lwakho,
38 besides the sabbaths of Jehovah, and besides your gifts, and besides all your vows, and besides all your voluntary offerings, which ye give to Jehovah.
ngaphandle kwamasabatha eNkosi, langaphandle kwezipho zenu, langaphandle kwezithembiso zenu zonke, langaphandle kweminikelo yenu yonke yesihle, elayinikela eNkosini.
39 But on the fifteenth day of the seventh month, when ye have gathered in the produce of the land, ye shall celebrate the feast of Jehovah seven days: on the first day there shall be rest, and on the eighth day there shall be rest.
Kodwa ngosuku lwetshumi lanhlanu lwenyanga yesikhombisa, lapho selibuthile isivuno selizwe, gcinani umkhosi weNkosi insuku eziyisikhombisa. Ngosuku lokuqala kuzakuba lokuphumula langosuku lwesificaminwembili kuzakuba lokuphumula.
40 And ye shall take on the first day the fruit of beautiful trees, palm branches and the boughs of leafy trees, and willows of the brook; and ye shall rejoice before Jehovah your God seven days.
Langosuku lokuqala zithatheleni izithelo zezihlahla ezinhle, izingatsha zezihlahla zelala, lezingatsha zezihlahla ezilamahlamvu aminyeneyo, leminyezane yemifula, lithabe phambi kweNkosi uNkulunkulu wenu insuku eziyisikhombisa.
41 And ye shall celebrate it as a feast to Jehovah seven days in the year: [it is] an everlasting statute throughout your generations; in the seventh month shall ye celebrate it.
Lizawugcina ube ngumkhosi eNkosini insuku eziyisikhombisa ngomnyaka. Kuyisimiso esilaphakade ezizukulwaneni zenu; liwugubhe ngenyanga yesikhombisa.
42 In booths shall ye dwell seven days; all born in Israel shall dwell in booths;
Lizahlala emadumbeni insuku eziyisikhombisa; bonke abazalwa koIsrayeli bazahlala emadumbeni,
43 that your generations may know that I caused the children of Israel to dwell in booths, when I brought them out of the land of Egypt: I am Jehovah your God.
ukuze izizukulwana zenu zazi ukuthi ngabahlalisa abantwana bakoIsrayeli emadumbeni ekubakhupheni kwami elizweni leGibhithe. NgiyiNkosi uNkulunkulu wenu.
44 And Moses declared the set feasts of Jehovah to the children of Israel.
Ngokunjalo uMozisi wabatshela abantwana bakoIsrayeli imikhosi emisiweyo yeNkosi.
