< Leviticus 27 >
1 And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying:
Yehova anawuza Mose kuti,
2 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them: When a man shall clearly utter a vow of persons unto the LORD, according to thy valuation,
“Yankhula ndi Aisraeli ndipo uwawuze kuti, ‘Ngati munthu anachita lumbiro lapadera loti adzapereka munthu mnzake kwa Yehova ndipo akufuna kuti amuwombole,
3 then thy valuation shall be for the male from twenty years old even unto sixty years old, even thy valuation shall be fifty shekels of silver, after the shekel of the sanctuary.
mtengo wake ukhale masekeli a siliva makumi asanu, molingana ndi kawerengedwe ka ku Nyumba ya Mulungu, ngati munthuyo ndi wamwamuna wa zaka zapakati pa 20 ndi 60.
4 And if it be a female, then thy valuation shall be thirty shekels.
Ndipo ngati ndi wamkazi, mtengo wake ukhale masekeli makumi atatu.
5 And if it be from five years old even unto twenty years old, then thy valuation shall be for the male twenty shekels, and for the female ten shekels.
Mtengo wa munthu wamwamuna wa zaka zapakati pa zisanu ndi makumi awiri ukhale masekeli makumi awiri ndipo munthu wamkazi ukhale masekeli khumi.
6 And if it be from a month old even unto five years old, then thy valuation shall be for the male five shekels of silver, and for the female thy valuation shall be three shekels of silver.
Ngati ndi munthu wamwamuna wa pakati pa mwezi umodzi ndi zaka zisanu, mtengo wa munthu wamwamuna ukhale masekeli asanu a siliva ndipo ngati ndi wamkazi, ukhale masekeli atatu a siliva.
7 And if it be from sixty years old and upward: if it be a male, then thy valuation shall be fifteen shekels, and for the female ten shekels.
Ngati ndi munthu wa zaka makumi asanu ndi limodzi kapena kuposerapo, mtengo wa wamwamuna ukhale masekeli khumi ndi asanu, ndipo wamkazi ukhale masekeli khumi.
8 But if he be too poor for thy valuation, then he shall be set before the priest, and the priest shall value him; according to the means of him that vowed shall the priest value him.
Ngati munthu amene anachita lumbiro ndi wosauka kwambiri kuti sangathe kulipira ndalama zimenezo, abwere ndi munthu woperekedwa uja kwa wansembe, ndipo wansembeyo ayike mtengo woti munthu wolumbirayo angathe kulipira.
9 And if it be a beast, whereof men bring an offering unto the LORD, all that any man giveth of such unto the LORD shall be holy.
“‘Ngati chimene anachitira lumbiro kuti apereke ndi nyama imene amapereka kukhala nsembe kwa Yehova, zonse zimene amapereka kwa Yehova nʼzopatulika.
10 He shall not alter it, nor change it, a good for a bad, or a bad for a good; and if he shall at all change beast for beast, then both it and that for which it is changed shall be holy.
Munthu asasinthanitse ndi ina kapena kupereka ina yabwino mʼmalo mwa yoyipa, kapena yoyipa mʼmalo mwa yabwino. Ngati asinthitsa nyama ina mʼmalo mwa ina, nyamayo pamodzi ndi inzake wasinthitsayo zikhala zopatulika.
11 And if it be any unclean beast, of which they may not bring an offering unto the LORD, then he shall set the beast before the priest.
Ngati chimene anachitira lumbiro ndi nyama yodetsedwa, nyama imene siloledwa kuyipereka kukhala nsembe kwa Yehova, nyamayo abwere nayo kwa wansembe,
12 And the priest shall value it, whether it be good or bad; as thou the priest valuest it, so shall it be.
ndipo wansembeyo atchule mtengo wake poona ngati ndi yabwino kapena ndi yoyipa. Mtengo umene wansembe atchule ndiwo udzakhale mtengo wake.
13 But if he will indeed redeem it, then he shall add the fifth part thereof unto thy valuation.
Ngati mwini wakeyo akufuna kuwombola nyamayo, awonjezere pa mtengo wake wa nyamayo chimodzi mwa zigawo zisanu zamtengowo.
14 And when a man shall sanctify his house to be holy unto the LORD, then the priest shall value it, whether it be good or bad; as the priest shall value it, so shall it stand.
“‘Ngati munthu apereka nyumba yake kuti ikhale yopatulika kwa Yehova, wansembe atchule mtengo wake poona ngati ndi yabwino kapena ndi yoyipa. Mtengo umene wansembe atchule ndiwo udzakhale mtengo wake.
15 And if he that sanctified it will redeem his house, then he shall add the fifth part of the money of thy valuation unto it, and it shall be his.
Ngati munthu amene wapereka nyumbayo afuna kuyiwombola nyumbayo, awonjezere pamtengo wake wa nyumbayo, limodzi mwa magawo asanu amtengowo. Ndipo nyumbayo idzakhalanso yake.
16 And if a man shall sanctify unto the LORD part of the field of his possession, then thy valuation shall be according to the sowing thereof; the sowing of a homer of barley shall be valued at fifty shekels of silver.
“‘Ngati munthu apereka kwa Yehova mbali ina ya malo a makolo ake, mtengo umene awuyike ukhale wolingana ndi mtengo wa mbewu zimene zimadzabzalidwamo. Zikhale mbewu za barele za makilogalamu makumi awiri ndipo mtengo wake ukhale masekeli makumi asanu.
17 If he sanctify his field from the year of jubilee, according to thy valuation it shall stand.
Ngati munthu apereka munda wake kuyambira chaka chokondwerera zaka makumi asanu, mtengo wake ukhale umene unakhazikitsidwa.
18 But if he sanctify his field after the jubilee, then the priest shall reckon unto him the money according to the years that remain unto the year of jubilee, and an abatement shall be made from thy valuation.
Koma ngati apereka mundawo chaka chokondwerera zaka makumi asanu chitapita, wansembe adzatchula mtengo molingana ndi zaka zomwe zatsala kuti chifike chaka china chokondwerera zaka makumi asanu, ndipo mtengo wake udzakhala wotsikirapo.
19 And if he that sanctified the field will indeed redeem it, then he shall add the fifth part of the money of thy valuation unto it, and it shall be assured to him.
Ngati munthu amene wapereka munda afuna kuwuwombola, ayenera kuwonjezera pa mtengo wake wa mundawo, limodzi mwa magawo asanu a mtengowo. Ndipo mundawo udzakhalanso wake.
20 And if he will not redeem the field, or if he have sold the field to another man, it shall not be redeemed any more.
Koma ngati sawuwombola mundawo, kapena ngati waugulitsa kwa munthu wina, mundawo sudzawomboledwanso.
21 But the field, when it goeth out in the jubilee, shall be holy unto the LORD, as a field devoted; the possession thereof shall be the priest's.
Mwini mundawo akawusiya mʼchaka chokondwerera zaka makumi asanu ndiye kuti mundawo udzakhala wopatulika monga woperekedwa kwa Yehova: udzakhala munda wa ansembe.
22 And if he sanctify unto the LORD a field which he hath bought, which is not of the field of his possession;
“‘Ngati munthu apereka kwa Yehova munda umene anagula, umene si malo a makolo ake,
23 then the priest shall reckon unto him the worth of thy valuation unto the year of jubilee; and he shall give thy valuation in that day, as a holy thing unto the LORD.
wansembe atchule mtengo wake kufikira pa chaka chokondwerera zaka makumi asanu, ndipo munthuyo apereke ndalama zokwanira mtengo wake pa tsikulo monga ndalama zopatulika kwa Yehova.
24 In the year of jubilee the field shall return unto him of whom it was bought, even to him to whom the possession of the land belongeth.
Pa chaka chokondwerera zaka makumi asanu, mundawo udzabwezedwa kwa munthu amene anawugulitsayo, amene malowo anali ake.
25 And all thy valuations shall be according to the shekel of the sanctuary; twenty gerahs shall be the shekel.
Potchula mtengo uliwonse wansembe awerengere molingana ndi mtengo wa sekeli wa ku Nyumba ya Mulungu: magera makumi awiri pa sekeli imodzi.
26 Howbeit the firstling among beasts, which is born as a firstling to the LORD, no man shall sanctify it; whether it be ox or sheep, it is the LORD'S.
“‘Koma pasapezeke munthu wopereka mwana woyamba kubadwa wa nyama, popeza mwana woyamba kubadwa ali kale wa Yehova, kaya ndi ngʼombe kapena nkhosa, zimenezi ndi za Yehova.
27 And if it be of an unclean beast, then he shall ransom it according to thy valuation, and shall add unto it the fifth part thereof; or if it be not redeemed, then it shall be sold according to thy valuation.
Ngati ili nyama yodetsedwa, ayiwombole pa mtengo umene wansembe wawuyika, ndi kuwonjezeranso pa mtengo wake wa nyamayo, limodzi mwa magawo asanu amtengowo. Ngati sayiwombola, igulitsidwe pa mtengo umene wansembe awuyike.
28 Notwithstanding, no devoted thing, that a man may devote unto the LORD of all that he hath, whether of man or beast, or of the field of his possession, shall be sold or redeemed; every devoted thing is most holy unto the LORD.
“‘Koma chinthu chilichonse choperekedwa kwa Yehova, kaya ndi munthu, nyama, kaya ndi malo a makolo, chimenechi chisagulitsidwe kapena kuwomboledwa. Choperekedwa kwa Yehova motere nʼchopatulika kwambiri.
29 None devoted, that may be devoted of men, shall be ransomed; he shall surely be put to death.
“‘Munthu amene waperekedwa kotheratu sangawomboledwe. Munthuyo ayenera kuphedwa.
30 And all the tithe of the land, whether of the seed of the land, or of the fruit of the tree, is the LORD'S; it is holy unto the LORD.
“‘Chakhumi chilichonse chochokera mʼdziko, kaya ndi tirigu wochokera mʼnthaka kapena chipatso cha mʼmitengo ndi za Yehova. Chimenecho ndi chopatulika kwa Yehova.
31 And if a man will redeem aught of his tithe, he shall add unto it the fifth part thereof.
Ngati munthu afuna kuwombola chakhumi chilichonse, awonjezere pamtengo wake chimodzi mwa zigawo zisanu za mtengowo.
32 And all the tithe of the herd or the flock, whatsoever passeth under the rod, the tenth shall be holy unto the LORD.
Chakhumi cha ngʼombe ndi nkhosa, kapena kuti nyama iliyonse ya khumi imene mʼbusa wayiwerenga idzakhala yopatulikira kwa Yehova.
33 He shall not inquire whether it be good or bad, neither shall he change it; and if he change it at all, then both it and that for which it is changed shall be holy; it shall not be redeemed.
Palibe amene adzaloledwa kusankha nyama yomwe ili yabwino kapena kusinthitsa. Ngati asinthitsa, nyamayo pamodzi ndi inzakeyo zidzakhala zopatulika ndipo sangaziwombole.’”
34 These are the commandments, which the LORD commanded Moses for the children of Israel in mount Sinai.
Amenewa ndi malamulo amene Yehova anamupatsa Mose pa Phiri la Sinai kuti awuze Aisraeli.
