< Leviticus 22 >
1 And the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,
Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis sị,
2 Speake vnto Aaron, and to his sonnes, that they be separated from the holy thinges of the children of Israel, and that they pollute not mine holy name in those things, which they hallowe vnto me: I am the Lord.
“Gwa Erọn na ụmụ ya ndị ikom ka ha jiri nsọpụrụ nabata onyinye dị nsọ nke ụmụ Izrel na-edo nsọ nye m, ka ha ghara imerụ aha nsọ m. Abụ m Onyenwe anyị.
3 Say vnto them, Whosoeuer he be of all your seede among your generations after you, that toucheth the holy things which the children of Israel hallowe vnto the Lord, hauing his vncleannesse vpon him, euen that person shall be cut off from my sight: I am the Lord.
“Gwa ha sị, ‘Nʼọgbọ unu niile na-abịa, ọ bụrụ na enwee onye ọbụla nʼagbụrụ unu nke bịara nso nʼihe ndị ahụ dị nsọ ụmụ Izrel na-edo nsọ nye Onyenwe anyị, mgbe onye ahụ nọ ọnọdụ dịka onye rụrụ arụ, a ga-esi nʼihu m wezuga onye ahụ. Abụ m Onyenwe anyị.
4 Whosoeuer also of the seede of Aaron is a leper, or hath a running issue, he shall not eate of the holy things vntill he be cleane: and who so toucheth any that is vncleane, by reason of the dead, or a man whose issue of seede runneth from him,
“‘Onye ọbụla bụ nwa nwa Erọn nke ọrịa ekpenta na-arịa, maọbụ nke ihe si nʼahụ ya na-asọpụta agaghị eri aja dị nsọ tutu ruo mgbe e mere ka ọ dịrị ọcha. Ọ ga-abụkwa onye rụrụ arụ ma ọ bụrụ na o metụ ozu aka, maọbụ onye mkpụrụ nwa na-esite nʼahụ awụsị,
5 Or the man that toucheth any creeping thing, whereby he may be made vncleane, or a man, by whom he may take vncleannesse, whatsoeuer vncleannesse he hath,
maọbụ na o metụrụ anụ na-akpụgharị akpụgharị nʼala aka, nke na-emerụ ya, maọbụ na ọ metụrụ mmadụ aka nke mere ka ọ bụrụ onye rụrụ arụ nʼagbanyeghị ihe ọ bụ na-emerụ ya.
6 The person that hath touched such, shall therefore be vncleane vntill the euen, and shall not eat of ye holy things, except he haue washed his flesh with water.
Onye ahụ metụrụ ihe ndị a aka ga-abụ onye rụrụ arụ ruo uhuruchi. Ọ gaghị eri ihe nsọ ọbụla tutu ruo mgbe ọ sachara ahụ.
7 But when the Sunne is downe, hee shalbe cleane, and shall afterward eate of the holy things: for it is his foode.
Mgbe anyanwụ dara ka ọ ga-adị ọcha, nweekwa ike iri ihe dị nsọ, nʼihi na ọ bụ nri ya.
8 Of a beast that dyeth, or is rent with beasts, whereby he may be defiled, hee shall not eate: I am the Lord.
Ọ gaghị eri anụ nwụrụ anwụ, maọbụ nke anụ ọzọ dọgburu, nʼihi na ihe ndị a ga-emerụ ya. Abụ m Onyenwe anyị.
9 Let them keepe therefore mine ordinance, least they beare their sinne for it, and die for it, if they defile it: I the Lord sanctifie them.
“‘Ndị nchụaja kwesiri idebe ụkpụrụ m, ka ha ghara ịbụ ndị ikpe mara si otu a nwụọ nʼihi na ha lelịrị ha anya. Abụ m Onyenwe anyị onye na-edo ha nsọ.
10 There shall no stranger also eate of the holie thing, neither the ghest of the Priest, neither shall an hired seruant eat of the holie thing:
“‘O nweghị onye ọbụla na-esiteghị nʼezinaụlọ ndị nchụaja ga-eri aja nsọ ahụ. Onye bụ ọbịa na onye e goro ọrụ nọ nʼụlọ onye nchụaja agaghị eri ya.
11 But if the Priest bye any with money, he shall eate of it, also he that is borne in his house: they shall eate of his meate.
Otu ọ dị, ọ bụrụ na onye nchụaja weere ego nke aka ya gbata ohu, maọbụ na a mụrụ ohu ahụ nʼụlọ ya, ohu ahụ nwere ike iri aja nsọ ahụ.
12 If the Priests daughter also be maried vnto a stranger, she may not eate of the holy offrings.
Ọ bụrụ na nwa nwanyị onye nchụaja alụọ onye na-abụghị onye nchụaja, ọ gaghị eri ihe ọbụla site nʼime aja nsọ a.
13 Notwithstanding if the Priests daughter be a widowe or diuorced, and haue no childe, but is returned vnto her fathers house shee shall eate of her fathers bread, as she did in her youth but there shall no stranger eate thereof.
Ma nwa nwanyị onye nchụaja nke di ya nwụrụ, maọbụ na ya na di ya ebikwaghị, ọ bụrụkwa na ọ mụtaghị nwa ọbụla, ọ lọghachi bịa biri nʼụlọ nna ya dịka o mere mgbe ọ bụ agbọghọ, o nwere ike iri nri dị nʼụlọ nna ya. Ọ dịkwaghị onye na-ekwesighị iri ya, nke ga-eri ya.
14 If a man eate of the holie thing vnwittingly, he shall put the fift part thereunto, and giue it vnto the Priest with the halowed thing.
“‘Ọ bụrụ na onye ọbụla erie onyinye nsọ ahụ na-amaghị ama, ọ ga-eweghachiri onye nchụaja ihe niile o riri tụkwasịkwa ya otu ụzọ nʼụzọ ise ọzọ.
15 So they shall not defile the holy things of the children of Israel, which they offer vnto the Lord,
Ndị nchụaja ekwesighị imerụ onyinye nsọ ụmụ Izrel na-eche nʼihu Onyenwe anyị,
16 Neither cause the people to beare the iniquitie of their trespas, while they eate their holy thing: for I the Lord do halowe them.
site nʼikwenye ka ndị mmadụ efu rie onyinye nsọ ahụ, si otu a wetara ndị riri ya ikpe ọmụma nke ya na nkwụghachi so. Abụ m Onyenwe anyị onye na-edo ha nsọ.’”
17 And the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,
Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis sị,
18 Speake vnto Aaron, and to his sonnes, and to all the children of Israel, and say vnto them, Whosoeuer he be of the house of Israel, or of the strangers in Israel, that will offer his sacrifice for all their vowes, and for all their free offrings, which they vse to offer vnto the Lord for a burnt offring,
“Gwa Erọn na ụmụ ya ndị ikom na ụmụ Izrel niile okwu sị ha, ‘Ọ bụrụ na onye ọbụla, onye Izrel maọbụ onye ọbịa nʼIzrel, eweta aja nsure ọkụ nye Onyenwe anyị imezu nkwa o kwere, maọbụ dịka onyinye afọ ofufu,
19 Yee shall offer of your free minde a male without blemish of the beeues, of the sheepe, or of the goates.
ọ ga-eweta otu oke nke na-enweghị nkwarụ nke si nʼigwe ehi, maọbụ atụrụ, maọbụ ewu, ka a nabata ya nʼaha.
20 Ye shall not offer any thing that hath a blemish: for that shall not be acceptable for you.
Ewebatala ihe ọbụla nke nwere nkwarụ, nʼihi na agaghị m anabata ya nʼaha gị.
21 And whosoeuer bringeth a peace offring vnto ye Lord to accomplish his vowe, or for a free offring, of the beeues, or of the sheepe, his free offring shall bee perfect, no blemish shalbe in it.
Mgbe onye ọbụla wetara ehi maọbụ atụrụ maọbụ ewu site nʼigwe anụ, dịka onyinye aja udo ọ na-enye Onyenwe anyị maka imezu nkwa, maọbụ onyinye afọ ofufu, ọ ga-abụ nke na-enweghị ọrụsị maọbụ ntụpọ ọbụla tupu a nabata ya.
22 Blinde, or broken, or maimed, or hauing a wenne, or skiruie, or skabbed: these shall yee not offer vnto the Lord nor make an offring by fire of these vpon the altar of the Lord.
Anụmanụ ọbụla kpuru ìsì, maọbụ nke merụrụ ahụ, maọbụ nke ụkwụ maọbụ aka gbajiri, maọbụ nke akpụkpa dị nʼahụ ya, maọbụ ihe nwere ure, maọbụ nke ọnya dị nʼahụ, agaghị abụ ihe onyinye nye Onyenwe anyị. Unu atụkwasịkwala ha nʼebe ịchụ aja dịka onyinye nye Onyenwe anyị.
23 Yet a bullocke, or a sheepe that hath any member superfluous, or lacking, such mayest thou present for a free offring, but for a vowe it shall not be accepted.
Unu nwere ike jiri ehi maọbụ atụrụ nke akụkụ ahụ ya tara ata, maọbụ nke otu akụkụ ya buru ibu karịa ibe ya chụọ aja onyinye si nʼobi, ma a gaghị e ji ya chụọ aja imezu nkwa.
24 Ye shall not offer vnto ye Lord that which is bruised or crusshed, or broken, or cut away, neither shall ye make an offring thereof in your land,
Unu agaghị enye anụmanụ ọbụla nke mkpụrụ amụ ya chipịara echipịa, maọbụ nke pịara apịa, maọbụ nke a dọwapụrụ adọwapụ maọbụ nke a chakapụrụ achakapụ, dịka onyinye nʼihu Onyenwe anyị. Unu enyekwala ụdị onyinye a nʼala unu.
25 Neither of ye hand of a strager shall ye offer ye bread of your God of any of these, because their corruption is in them, there is a blemish in them: therefore shall they not be accepted for you.
Unu esitekwala nʼaka onye ọbịa nata ụdị onyinye a, ma webata ya dịka nri a na-enye Chineke unu. A gaghị anabata ha nʼọnọdụ unu, nʼihi na ha nwere nkwarụ, nwekwa ntụpọ.’”
26 And the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,
Onyenwe anyị sịrị Mosis,
27 When a bullocke, or a sheepe, or a goate shall be brought foorth, it shalbe euen seuen daies vnder his damme: and from the eight day forth, it shalbe accepted for a sacrifice made by fire vnto the Lord.
“Mgbe a mụrụ nwa ehi, maọbụ nwa atụrụ, maọbụ ewu ọhụrụ, a ga-ahapụ ya na nne ya ụbọchị asaa. Site nʼụbọchị nke asatọ gaa nʼihu a ga-anabata ya dịka onyinye ihe oriri i ji chụọ aja nsure ọkụ nye Onyenwe anyị.
28 As for the cowe or the ewe, yee shall not kill her, and her yong both in one day.
Egbula nne anụ na nwa ya nʼotu ụbọchị, maọbụ ehi maọbụ atụrụ.
29 So when ye will offer a thanke offring vnto the Lord, ye shall offer willingly.
“Mgbe unu na-achụrụ Onyenwe anyị aja ekele, chụọnụ ya nʼụzọ ahụ a ga-anabata ya.
30 The same day it shalbe eaten, yee shall leaue none of it vntill the morowe: I am the Lord.
Riekwanụ anụ aja ahụ nʼotu ụbọchị ahụ, ka ọ hapụ ịfọdụ ruo echi ya. Abụ m Onyenwe anyị.
31 Therefore shall ye keepe my commandements and do them: for I am the Lord.
“Unu ga-edebe iwu m ndị a niile, mee ha nʼihi na abụ m Onyenwe anyị.
32 Neither shall ye pollute mine holy Name, but I will be halowed among the children of Israel. I the Lord sanctifie you,
Unu emekwala ka aha m ghara ịdị nsọ. A ga-edo aha m nsọ nʼetiti ụmụ Izrel, nʼihi na abụ m Onyenwe anyị onye na-edo unu nsọ.
33 Which haue brought you out of the land of Egypt, to be your God: I am the Lord.
Ọ bụ m kpọpụtara unu site nʼala Ijipt ka m bụrụ Chineke unu. Abụ m Onyenwe anyị.”
