< Leviticus 6 >
1 And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying:
Bwana alisema na Musa kumwabia,
2 If any one sin, and commit a trespass against the LORD, and deal falsely with his neighbour in a matter of deposit, or of pledge, or of robbery, or have oppressed his neighbour;
“Kama mtu akifanya dhambi na kuvunja amri kinyume na Bwana, kama kujihusisha na uongo dhidi ya jirani yake kuhusu kitu fulani cha kutokuwa mwaminifu, au kama akidanganya au kuiba au amemdhurumu jirani.
3 or have found that which was lost, and deal falsely therein, and swear to a lie; in any of all these that a man doeth, sinning therein;
Au akiokota kitu fulani ambacho jirani yake amepoteza na kusema uongo kuhusu hicho, na kuapa kwa uongo au kwa mambo kama haya ambayo watu wanaweza kutenda dhambi.
4 then it shall be, if he hath sinned, and is guilty, that he shall restore that which he took by robbery, or the thing which he hath gotten by oppression, or the deposit which was deposited with him, or the lost thing which he found,
Ndipo itakuwa hivi, kama ametenda dhambi na hatia, kwamba lazima akirudishe kwa vyovyote alichoiba au kudanganya au amedhurumu au kitu kilichopotea naye kukiokota.
5 or any thing about which he hath sworn falsely, he shall even restore it in full, and shall add the fifth part more thereto; unto him to whom it appertaineth shall he give it, in the day of his being guilty.
Au kama amedanganya kwa jambo lolote, lazima atakirudisha kamilina kuongezea sehemu ya tano kwa kumlipa anayedai, kwa siku ile anayopatikana na hatia.
6 And he shall bring his forfeit unto the LORD, a ram without blemish out of the flock, according to thy valuation, for a guilt-offering, unto the priest.
Ataleta sadka ya hatia kwa Bwana: kondoo dume asiye na kasoro kutoka katika kundi lake kulingana na thamani yake, kama sadaka ya hatia kwa kuhani.
7 And the priest shall make atonement for him before the LORD, and he shall be forgiven, concerning whatsoever he doeth so as to be guilty thereby.
Kuhani atafanya upatanisho kwa ajili yake mbele ya Bwana, atakuwa amesamehewa kulingana na chochote kilicho mfanya kuwa na hatia.”
8 And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying:
Ndipo Bwana alisema na Musa kumwambia,
9 Command Aaron and his sons, saying: This is the law of the burnt-offering: it is that which goeth up on its firewood upon the altar all night unto the morning; and the fire of the altar shall be kept burning thereby.
“Mwagize Haruni na wanawe, kusema, 'hii ni sheria ya sadaka ya kuteketezwa: Sadaka ya kuteketezwa lazima iwe juu ya makaa ya madhabahu usiku wote hata asubuhi, na moto wa madhabahu utaendelea kuwaka.
10 And the priest shall put on his linen garment, and his linen breeches shall he put upon his flesh; and he shall take up the ashes whereto the fire hath consumed the burnt-offering on the altar, and he shall put them beside the altar.
Kuhani atavaa nguo zake za kitani na atavaa nguo za kitani ndani yake. Atatoa majivu yaliyobaki baada ya moto kutekeza sadaka ya kuteketezwa juu ya madhabahu, na ataweka majivu pembeni mwa madhabahu.
11 And he shall put off his garments, and put on other garments, and carry forth the ashes without the camp unto a clean place.
Atavua mavazi haya na kuvaa mavazi mengine ili kuchukua majivu nje ya kambi na kupeleka mahali palipo safi.
12 And the fire upon the altar shall be kept burning thereby, it shall not go out; and the priest shall kindle wood on it every morning; and he shall lay the burnt-offering in order upon it, and shall make smoke thereon the fat of the peace-offerings.
Moto katika madhabahu utaendelea kuwaka. Usizimike, na kuhani ataongeza kuni kila asubuhi. Atapanga juu yake sadaka ya kuteketezwa kama inavyotakiwa, na atateketeza juu yake mafuta ya sadaka ya amani.
13 Fire shall be kept burning upon the altar continually; it shall not go out.
Moto lazima utaendelea kuwaka katika madhabahu, kamwe usizimike.
14 And this is the law of the meal-offering: the sons of Aaron shall offer it before the LORD, in front of the altar.
Hii ni sheria ya sadaka ya nafaka. Wana wa Haruni watatoa mbele ya Bwana katika madhabahu.
15 And he shall take up therefrom his handful, of the fine flour of the meal-offering, and of the oil thereof, and all the frankincense which is upon the meal-offering, and shall make the memorial-part thereof smoke upon the altar for a sweet savour unto the LORD.
Kuhani atachukua konzi ya unga laini wa sadaka ya nafaka na mafuta na ubani ambao uko juu ya sadaka ya nafaka, atateketeza juu ya madhabahu kuleta harufu nzuri ya shukrani ya kumpendeza Bwana.
16 And that which is left thereof shall Aaron and his sons eat; it shall be eaten without leaven in a holy place; in the court of the tent of meeting they shall eat it.
Haruni na wanae watakula sadaka inayobaki, italiwa bila kutiwa chachu mahali patakatifu. Watakula katika ua ya hema ya kukutania.
17 It shall not be baked with leaven. I have given it as their portion of My offerings made by fire; it is most holy, as the sin-offering, and as the guilt-offering.
Haitaokwa pamoja na chachu. Nimewapa kama sehemu ya sadaka yangu itolewayo kwa moto, ni takatifu sana, kama sadaka ya dhambi na sadaka ya hatia.
18 Every male among the children of Aaron may eat of it, as a due for ever throughout your generations, from the offerings of the LORD made by fire; whatsoever toucheth them shall be holy.
Kwa nyakati zote zijazo kupitia watu wa kizazi chako, mwanaume yeyote mzaliwa kutoka kwa Haruni aweza kula ni sehemu yake, ichukuliwayo katika sadaka ya Bwana kwa moto. Yeyote anayeigusa atakuwa mtakatifu.”
19 And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying:
Bwana aliongea tena na Musa kumwambia,
20 This is the offering of Aaron and of his sons, which they shall offer unto the LORD in the day when he is anointed: the tenth part of an ephah of fine flour for a meal-offering perpetually, half of it in the morning, and half thereof in the evening.
“Hii ni sadaka ya Haruni na wanawe ambayo watatoa kwa Bwana katika siku ambayo kila mwana atawekwa wakfu: sehemu ya kumi ya efa ya unga laini kama kawaida sadaka ya nafaka nusu yake asubuhi na nusu yake jioni.
21 On a griddle it shall be made with oil; when it is soaked, thou shalt bring it in; in broken pieces shalt thou offer the meal-offering for a sweet savour unto the LORD.
Itatengenezwa na mafuta katika kikaango, utaileta ikiwa imeandaliwa imeokwa katika vipande utatoa sadaka ya nafaka ili kuleta harufu nzuri kwa Bwana.
22 And the anointed priest that shall be in his stead from among his sons shall offer it, it is a due for ever; it shall be wholly made to smoke unto the LORD.
Mwana wa Kuhani Mkuu atakayekuwa Kuhani Mkuu mpya kutoka miongoni mwa wanawe ataitoa. Kama amri ya milele, yote itateketezwa kwa Bwana.
23 And every meal-offering of the priest shall be wholly made to smoke; it shall not be eaten.
Kila sadaka ya nafaka ya kuhani itatekezwa yote. Haitaliwa kamwe.”
24 And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying:
Bwana alisema tena Musa, kumwambia,
25 Speak unto Aaron and to his sons, saying: This is the law of the sin-offering: in the place where the burnt-offering is killed shall the sin-offering be killed before the LORD; it is most holy.
“Sema na Haruni na watoto wake kwamba, 'Hii ni sheria ya sadaka ya dhambi: Sadaka ya dhambi lazima kuchinjwa mahali pa sadaka ya kuteketezwa itachinjwa mbeleya Bwana. Ni takatifu sana.
26 The priest that offereth it for sin shall eat it; in a holy place shall it be eaten, in the court of the tent of meeting.
Kuhani atakayeitoa kwa ajili ya dhambi ndiye atakayeila. Italiwa mahali patakatifu katika ua wa hema ya kukutania.
27 Whatsoever shall touch the flesh thereof shall be holy; and when there is sprinkled of the blood thereof upon any garment, thou shalt wash that whereon it was sprinkled in a holy place.
Yeyote atakayeigusa nyama yake atakuwa ni mtakatifu na kama damu itadondokea mavazi yatafuliwa mahali palipodondokewa, mahali patakatifu.
28 But the earthen vessel wherein it is sodden shall be broken; and if it be sodden in a brazen vessel, it shall be scoured, and rinsed in water.
Lakini chungu kikipikiwa kitavunjwa, kama imepikiwa katika chombo cha shaba, lazima kitasuguliwa na kusafishwa kwa maji.
29 Every male among the priests may eat thereof; it is most holy.
Mwanaume yeyote miongoni mwa makuhani anaweza kula nyama hiyo kwa sababu ni takatifu sana.
30 And no sin-offering, whereof any of the blood is brought into the tent of meeting to make atonement in the holy place, shall be eaten; it shall be burnt with fire.
Na hakuna sadaka ya dhambi italiwa ambayo damu yake imeletwa katika hema ya kukutania kufanya upatanisho katika mahali patakatifu. Ni lazima iteketezwe.
