Leviticus 23
1 The Lord told Moses,
Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis okwu sị ya,
2 “Tell the Israelites that these are my religious festivals, the festivals of the Lord that you are to call as the holy times when we meet together.
“Gwa ụmụ Izrel okwu sị ha, ‘Ndị a bụ mmemme a kara aka nye Onyenwe anyị, nke unu ga-ekwusa dịka mkpọkọta dị nsọ.
3 You have six days to work, but the seventh day is a Sabbath of complete rest, a holy day of meeting together. Don't do any work. It is the Lord's Sabbath everywhere you live.
“‘Ụbọchị isii ka unu ga-eji rụọ ọrụ. Ma ụbọchị nke asaa, bụ ụbọchị izuike, ụbọchị mkpọkọta dị nsọ. Unu agaghị arụ ọrụ ọbụla nʼụbọchị ahụ, nʼebe ọbụla unu bi. Ọ bụ ụbọchị izuike nye Onyenwe anyị.
4 These are the Lord's religious festivals, the holy meetings that you ate to announce at their specific times.
“‘Ndị a bụ mmemme Onyenwe anyị a kara aka, mkpọkọta dị nsọ nke unu ga-ekwusa nʼoge a kara aka.
5 The Lord's Passover starts on the evening of the fourteenth day of the first month.
Nʼọnwa mbụ, nʼụbọchị nke iri na anọ nke ọnwa ahụ, nʼoge uhuruchi, mgbe anwụ dara, ka Mmemme Ngabiga Onyenwe anyị ga-adị.
6 The Lord's Festival of Unleavened Bread begins on the fifteenth day of the first month. For seven days the bread you eat must be made without yeast.
Mmemme achịcha na-ekoghị eko Onyenwe anyị ka unu ga-ebido nʼụbọchị iri na ise nke ọnwa ahụ. Abalị asaa ka unu ga-eri achịcha a na-ejighị ihe na-eko achịcha mee.
7 On the first day you are hold a holy meeting. You must not do any of your usual work.
Nʼụbọchị mbụ nke mmemme a, unu ga-enwe mkpọkọta dị nsọ, ọ dịkwaghị onye ọbụla ga-arụ ọrụ ọbụla.
8 For seven days you shall present food offerings to the Lord. There is to be a holy meeting on the seventh day. You must not do any of your usual work.”
Unu ga-eweta aja e sitere nʼọkụ chụọ nye Onyenwe anyị. Nʼụbọchị nke asaa nweenụ mkpọkọta dị nsọ, unu arụkwala ọrụ nke ụbọchị ahụ.’”
9 The Lord told Moses,
Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis sị ya,
10 “Tell the Israelites that when you enter the land that I'm giving you and you harvest your crops, take a stack of grain from the firstfruits of your harvest to the priest.
“Gwa ụmụ Izrel sị ha, ‘Mgbe unu banyere nʼala ahụ m na-aga inye unu, ghọta mkpụrụ ihe ubi nke mbụ unu, unu ga-ewetara onye nchụaja otu ukwu ọka site nʼọka unu ghọtara nʼubi unu.
11 He will wave the stack of grain before the Lord so that it may be accepted on your behalf. The priest is to do this the day following the Sabbath.
Ọ ga-anara unu ukwu ọka ahụ fufee ya nʼihu Onyenwe anyị, ka a nabata ya. Ọ bụ nʼụbọchị ahụ ga-esote ụbọchị izuike ka onye nchụaja ga-efufe ya.
12 When you wave the stack of grain, you are to present a one-year-old lamb without defects as a burnt offering to the Lord,
Nʼotu ụbọchị ahụ e fufere ukwu ọka ahụ, unu ga-ewere nwa ebule na-enweghị ntụpọ, nke gbara naanị otu afọ, chụọrọ Onyenwe anyị aja nsure ọkụ.
13 together with its grain offering of two-tenths of an ephah of best flour mixed with olive oil (a food offering to the Lord to be accepted by him) and its drink offering of a quarter of a hin of wine.
Aja mkpụrụ ọka ga-eso aja nsure ọkụ a. Ọ ga-eji iko ọka a kwọrọ nke ọma iri na abụọ a gwara mmanụ oliv, ka ọ bụrụ ihe e surere nʼọkụ na-esi ezi isi ọma nye Onyenwe anyị. A ga-enyekwa iko mmanya atọ dịka onyinye ihe ọṅụṅụ
14 Don't eat any bread, roasted grain, or new grain until the time you bring this offering to your God. This regulation is for all time and for future generations everywhere you live.
Unu agaghị eri achịcha, maọbụ ọka e ghere eghe, maọbụ ọka ọhụrụ tutu ruo mgbe unu buru ụzọ weta onyinye nye Chineke unu. Nʼebe ọbụla unu bi, ụkpụrụ a ga-adịgide ruo ọgbọ niile.
15 Count seven full weeks from the day after the Sabbath—the day you brought the stack of grain as a wave offering.
“‘Site nʼụbọchị ahụ sotere ụbọchị izuike, bụ ụbọchị ahụ unu wetara ukwu ọka nke onyinye mfufe, gụpụta izu asaa zuru ezu.
16 Count fifty days until the day after the seventh Sabbath, and on that day present an offering of new grain to the Lord.
Gụpụtakwa iri ụbọchị ise site nʼụbọchị izuike ahụ mezuru izu asaa ahụ ma wetara Onyenwe anyị onyinye ọka ọhụrụ.
17 Bring two loaves of bread from your homes as a wave offering. Make them from two-tenths of an ephah of best flour, baked with yeast, as the firstfruits to the Lord.
Site nʼebe ọbụla unu bi, unu ga-ewetara Onyenwe anyị ogbe achịcha abụọ nke unu ji iko ọka a kwọrọ nke ọma iri na abụọ, nke e ji ihe na-eko achịcha mee, ya bụ yiist, dịka aja mfufe nke mkpụrụ mbụ nye Onyenwe anyị.
18 As well as the bread, present seven one-year-old male lambs a year old without defects, one young bull, and two rams. They will be a burnt offering to the Lord, as well as their grain offerings and drink offerings, a food offering to the Lord to be accepted by him.
Tinyere achịcha a, unu ga-eweta ụmụ atụrụ asaa gbara otu afọ, ndị na-enweghị ntụpọ, na otu nwa oke ehi, na ebule abụọ. Ha ga-abụ aja nsure ọkụ nye Onyenwe anyị, ya na aja mkpụrụ ọka na aja ihe ọṅụṅụ, aja e sitere nʼọkụ chụọ, nke isisi ya dị ezi mma nye Onyenwe anyị.
19 Present one male goat as a sin offering and two one-year-old male lambs a year old as a peace offering.
Unu ga-ejikwa otu mkpi chụọ aja mmehie. Werekwa ụmụ atụrụ abụọ gbara otu afọ, otu afọ, chụọ aja udo.
20 The priest will wave the lambs as a wave offering before the Lord, along with the bread of the firstfruits. The bread and the two lambs are holy to the Lord and belong to the priest.
Onye nchụaja ga-efufe ụmụ atụrụ abụọ ndị a, na achịcha ndị si na mkpụrụ mbụ ahụ nʼihu Onyenwe anyị dịka aja mfufe. Ha bụ aja dị nsọ nye Onyenwe anyị. Ọ bụkwa ndị nchụaja ga-ewere ha dịka nri ha.
21 That same day you are to announce a holy meeting, and you must not to do any of your usual work. This regulation is for all time and for future generations everywhere you live.
Nʼotu ụbọchị ahụ unu ga-akpọsakwa mkpọkọta dị nsọ, unu arụkwala ọrụ nke ụbọchị ahụ. Nke a ga-abụ ụkpụrụ ga-adịgide ebighị ebi site nʼọgbọ ruo nʼọgbọ niile, nʼebe ọbụla unu bi.
22 When you harvest the crops grown on your land, don't harvest right up to the edges of your field, or collect what has been missed. Leave them for the poor people and foreigners. I am the Lord your God.”
“‘Mgbe unu na-ewe ihe ubi, unu ewechala ihe niile dị nʼakụkụ niile nke ubi unu. Hapụrụnụ ha ụmụ ogbenye, na ndị ọbịa. Hapụkwara ha mkpụrụ ubi niile dara nʼala. Abụ m Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu.’”
23 The Lord told Moses,
Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis sị,
24 “Tell the Israelites that on the first day of the seventh month you are to have a special Sabbath of complete rest, a holy meeting that is announced by the sound of trumpets.
“Gwa ụmụ Izrel sị, ‘Ụbọchị mbụ nke ọnwa nke asaa ga-abụ ụbọchị izuike, ụbọchị mkpọkọta dị nsọ nke a ga-eji opi na-ada oke ụda cheta.
25 Don't do any of your usual work; instead you are to present a food offering to the Lord.”
Unu arụla ọrụ ọbụla nʼụbọchị ahụ, kama unu ga-achụ aja nsure ọkụ nye Onyenwe anyị.’”
26 The Lord told Moses,
Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis sị,
27 “The Day of Atonement is on the tenth day of this seventh month. You are to have a holy meeting, deny yourselves, and present a food offering to the Lord
“Ụbọchị nke iri nke ọnwa asaa a bụ ụbọchị Mkpuchi Mmehie. Ọ bụ ụbọchị mkpọkọta dị nsọ nye unu. Unu ga-ata onwe unu ahụhụ bịa wetara Onyenwe anyị onyinye site nʼọkụ.
28 On this day you must not do any of your usual work because it is the Day of Atonement, when things are made right for you before the Lord your God.
Unu arụla ọrụ ọbụla nʼụbọchị ahụ nʼihi na ụbọchị ahụ bụ ụbọchị ịchụ aja mkpuchi mmehie unu nʼihu Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu.
29 Anyone who does not practice self-denial on this day must be expelled from their people.
Onye ọbụla na-ejighị ụbọchị ahụ weda onwe ya nʼala ka a ga-ekewapụ site nʼetiti ndị ya.
30 I will destroy anyone of you who does any work on this day.
Aga m ebibikwa onye ọbụla rụrụ ọrụ nʼụbọchị ahụ.
31 Don't do any kind of work at all. This regulation is for all time and for future generations everywhere you live.
Unu agaghị arụ ọrụ ọbụla. Nʼebe ọbụla unu bi, ụkpụrụ a ga-adịgide nye unu niile site nʼọgbọ ruo nʼọgbọ.
32 It is to be a Sabbath of complete rest for you, and you shall practice self-denial. You are to observe your Sabbath from the evening of the ninth day of the month until evening the next day.”
Ọ ga-abụ ụbọchị izuike zuruoke nye unu, unu ga-ewedakwa onwe unu nʼala. Nʼụbọchị nke itoolu nke ọnwa ahụ, site nʼuhuruchi ruo nʼuhuruchi nke na-esote ya, unu ga-edebe izuike unu.”
33 The Lord told Moses,
Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis sị,
34 “Tell the Israelites that the Feast of Tabernacles to honor the Lord begins on the fifteenth day of the seventh month and lasts for seven days.
“Gwa ụmụ Izrel, ‘Nʼụbọchị nke iri na ise, nʼọnwa nke asaa, ka unu ga-amalite mmemme Ụlọ Ikwu Onyenwe anyị. A ga-eme ya ụbọchị asaa.
35 On the first day have a holy meeting. You must not do any of your usual work.
Nʼụbọchị nke mbụ bụ ụbọchị mkpọkọta dị nsọ. Onye ọbụla agaghị arụ ọrụ nʼụbọchị ahụ.
36 For seven days you shall present food offerings to the Lord. On the eighth day you are to have another holy meeting and present a food offering to the Lord. It is a meeting for worship. You must not do any of your usual work.
Nʼụbọchị ọbụla nʼime ụbọchị asaa ndị a niile ka a ga-ewetara Onyenwe anyị onyinye site nʼọkụ. Nʼụbọchị nke asatọ ka mkpọkọta dị nsọ ga-adị. A ga-achụ aja nsure ọkụ nye Onyenwe anyị, nʼụbọchị a. Ọ bụ mkpokọta mmechi, nʼihi ya, a gaghị arụ ọrụ ọbụla nʼụbọchị ahụ.
37 (These are the Lord's holy festivals, which you are to announce as holy meetings for presenting food offerings to the Lord. These include burnt offerings, grain offerings, sacrifices and drink offerings, each according to the specific day.
(“‘Ndị a bụ mmemme a kara aka, mgbe a ga-ekwusa mkpọkọta dị nsọ maka iwetara Onyenwe anyị onyinye nri, ya bụ, onyinye aja nsure ọkụ, na onyinye mkpụrụ ọka, na aja dị iche iche, na onyinye ihe ọṅụṅụ dịka e sị hazie na ọ ga na-adị kwa ụbọchị.
38 All of these offerings are in addition to those for the Lord's Sabbaths. They are also in addition to your gifts, to all your offerings to fulfill promises, and to all the freewill offerings you present to the Lord.)
Unu ga-enye onyinye ndị a, tinyere onyinye a na-enye Onyenwe anyị nʼụbọchị izuike, na tinyere onyinye ndị ọzọ unu na-enye na ihe ndị ọzọ unu kwere na nkwa, na onyinye afọ ofufu niile unu na-enye Onyenwe anyị.)
39 You shall celebrate a feast to honor the Lord for seven days on the fifteenth day of the seventh month, once you have harvested your crops. The first day and the eighth day are Sabbaths of complete rest.
“‘Ya mere, malite nʼụbọchị nke iri na ise nke ọnwa asaa, mgbe unu webatasịrị ihe ubi unu, meerenụ Onyenwe anyị mmemme ụbọchị asaa, ụbọchị nke mbụ, na ụbọchị nke asatọ ga-abụ ụbọchị izuike.
40 On the first day you are to gather branches from large trees, from palm trees, from leafy trees and of river willows, and celebrate before the Lord your God for seven days.
Nʼụbọchị nke mbụ, unu ga-ewere ụfọdụ mkpụrụ osisi dị mma nke si nʼosisi unu na-amị mkpụrụ, gbutekwa igu nkwụ, na alaka osisi nwere ahịhịa ndụ, na osisi pọpla, jiri ha mee mmemme obi ụtọ nʼihu Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu ụbọchị asaa.
41 You are to hold this festival to honor the Lord for seven days every year. This regulation is for all time and for all future generations.
Mmemme ụbọchị asaa a ga-adị nye Onyenwe anyị nʼafọ niile, site nʼọgbọ ruo nʼọgbọ unu niile. Ọ bụkwa nʼọnwa nke asaa ka unu ga-eme mmemme a.
42 You are to live in temporary shelters for seven days. Every Israelite born in the country must live in shelters,
Nʼoge mmemme a, ụmụ Izrel niile ga-ebi nʼụlọ e ji alaka osisi na ahịhịa wuo ụbọchị asaa. Ụmụ afọ Izrel niile ga-ebi nʼụlọ dị otu a.
43 so that your descendants will remember that I made the Israelites live in shelters when I led them out of Egypt. I am the Lord your God.”
Nke a ga-echetara ọgbọ ụmụ Izrel niile na mgbe m kpọpụtara unu site nʼala Ijipt, unu biri nʼụlọ e ji osisi na ahịhịa wuo nʼọzara. Abụ m Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu.’”
44 So Moses told the Israelites all about the Lord's festivals.
Mosis gwara ụmụ Izrel ihe gbasara mmemme niile a kara aka nye Onyenwe anyị.
