Leviticus 17
1 And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying:
Yehova anawuza Mose kuti,
2 Speak unto Aaron, and unto his sons, and unto all the children of Israel, and say unto them: This is the thing which the LORD hath commanded, saying:
“Uza Aaroni ndi ana ake, pamodzi ndi Aisraeli onse kuti, ‘Chimene Yehova walamula ndi ichi:
3 What man soever there be of the house of Israel, that killeth an ox, or lamb, or goat, in the camp, or that killeth it without the camp,
Mwisraeli aliyense amene apha ngʼombe, mwana wankhosa kapena mbuzi mu msasa kapena kunja kwa msasa,
4 and hath not brought it unto the door of the tent of meeting, to present it as an offering unto the LORD before the tabernacle of the LORD, blood shall be imputed unto that man; he hath shed blood; and that man shall be cut off from among his people.
mʼmalo mobwera nayo pa khomo la tenti ya msonkhano pamaso pa Yehova ndi kuyipereka kuti ikhale nsembe ya Yehova, ameneyo wapalamula mlandu wa magazi, wakhetsa magazi ndipo ayenera kuchotsedwa pakati pa anthu anzake.
5 To the end that the children of Israel may bring their sacrifices, which they sacrifice in the open field, even that they may bring them unto the LORD, unto the door of the tent of meeting, unto the priest, and sacrifice them for sacrifices of peace-offerings unto the LORD.
Izi zili choncho kuti Aisraeli azibwera ndi nyama zawo za nsembe zimene akanaphera ku malo kwina kulikonse. Aisraeli azibwera nazo nyamazo kwa Yehova, kwa wansembe wokhala pa khomo la tenti ya msonkhano ndipo aziphere pomwepo kuti zikhale nsembe za chiyanjano.
6 And the priest shall dash the blood against the altar of the LORD at the door of the tent of meeting, and make the fat smoke for a sweet savour unto the LORD.
Wansembe awaze magazi ake pa guwa la Yehova limene lili pa khomo la tenti ya msonkhano ndipo atenthe mafuta ake kuti atulutse fungo lokomera Yehova.
7 And they shall no more sacrifice their sacrifices unto the satyrs, after whom they go astray. This shall be a statute for ever unto them throughout their generations.
Motero asadzapherenso nsembe fano la mbuzi limene amachita nalo zadama. Limeneli ndi lamulo la muyaya kwa iwo ndi mibado ya mʼtsogolo.’”
8 And thou shalt say unto them: Whatsoever man there be of the house of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn among them, that offereth a burnt-offering or sacrifice,
“Uwawuze kuti, ‘Mwisraeli aliyense kapena mlendo amene amakhala pakati pawo akapereka nsembe yopsereza kapena nsembe ina iliyonse
9 and bringeth it not unto the door of the tent of meeting, to sacrifice it unto the LORD, even that man shall be cut off from his people.
popanda kubwera nayo pa khomo la tenti ya msonkhano kudzayipereka pamaso pa Yehova, munthu ameneyo achotsedwe pakati pa anthu anzake.’”
10 And whatsoever man there be of the house of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn among them, that eateth any manner of blood, I will set My face against that soul that eateth blood, and will cut him off from among his people.
“Mwisraeli aliyense kapena mlendo aliyense wokhala pakati panu amene adya magazi, ndidzamufulatira ndipo ndidzamuchotsa pakati pa anthu anzake.
11 For the life of the flesh is in the blood; and I have given it to you upon the altar to make atonement for your souls; for it is the blood that maketh atonement by reason of the life.
Pakuti moyo wa cholengedwa chilichonse uli mʼmagazi, ndipo ndawupereka kwa inu kuti muzichitira mwambo wopepesera machimo a moyo wanu pa guwa. Pajatu magazi ndiwo amachotsa machimo chifukwa moyo uli mʼmenemo.
12 Therefore I said unto the children of Israel: No soul of you shall eat blood, neither shall any stranger that sojourneth among you eat blood.
Choncho ndikuwawuza Aisraeli kuti, ‘Pasapezeke aliyense wa inu wodya magazi, ngakhale mlendo wokhala pakati panu.’”
13 And whatsoever man there be of the children of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn among them, that taketh in hunting any beast or fowl that may be eaten, he shall pour out the blood thereof, and cover it with dust.
“Mwisraeli aliyense kapena mlendo aliyense wokhala pakati panu amene amasaka ndi kupha nyama zakuthengo kapena mbalame zimene amadya, ataye magazi ake pansi ndi kuwakwirira ndi dothi,
14 For as to the life of all flesh, the blood thereof is all one with the life thereof; therefore I said unto the children of Israel: Ye shall eat the blood of no manner of flesh; for the life of all flesh is the blood thereof; whosoever eateth it shall be cut off.
chifukwa moyo wa cholengedwa chilichonse uli mʼmagazi ake. Nʼchifukwa chake ndinawawuza Aisraeli kuti, ‘Musamadye magazi a cholengedwa chilichonse, chifukwa moyo wa cholengedwa chilichonse uli mʼmagazi. Aliyense wodya magaziwo ayenera kuchotsedwa pakati pa anthu anzake.
15 And every soul that eateth that which dieth of itself, or that which is torn of beasts, whether he be home-born or a stranger, he shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the even; then shall he be clean.
“‘Munthu aliyense, kaya ndi mbadwa kapena mlendo, amene amadya chilichonse chofa chokha, kapena chojiwa ndi zirombo, achape zovala zake ndi kusamba, komabe adzakhala wodetsedwa mpaka madzulo. Kenaka adzakhala woyeretsedwa.
16 But if he wash them not, nor bathe his flesh, then he shall bear his iniquity.
Koma ngati sachapa zovala zake ndi kusamba, adzasenzabe machimo ake.’”
