< Leviticus 16 >

1 And the LORD spoke to Moses after the death of the two sons of Aaron, when they offered before the LORD, and died;
Yahwe alizungumza na Musa - hii ni baada vifo vya wana wawili wa Haruni, walipomkaribia Yahwe na ndipo wakafa.
2 And the LORD said to Moses, Speak to Aaron your brother, that he come not at all times into the holy place within the veil before the mercy seat, which is on the ark; that he die not: for I will appear in the cloud on the mercy seat.
Yahwe alimwambia Musa, “Ongea na Haruni kaka yako na umwambie hapana kuja tu wakati wowote katika patakatifu pa patakatifu ndani ya pazia, mbele ya kifuniko cha upatanisho kilicho juu ya sanduku. Akifanya hivyo, anakufa, kwasababu naonekana katika wingu juu ya kifuniko cha upatanisho.
3 Thus shall Aaron come into the holy place: with a young bullock for a sin offering, and a ram for a burnt offering.
Hivi ndivyo jinsi Haruni lazima aje katika patakatifu pa patakatifu. Yeye lazima aingie pamoja na ndama kama sadaka ya dhambi, na kondoo dume kama sadaka ya dhambi.
4 He shall put on the holy linen coat, and he shall have the linen breeches on his flesh, and shall be girded with a linen girdle, and with the linen turban shall he be attired: these are holy garments; therefore shall he wash his flesh in water, and so put them on.
Ni lazima avae kanzu ya kitatani, na lazima avae ndani yake nguo ya kitani, na lazima avae mshipi wa kitani na kilemba cha kitani. Haya ni mavazi matakatifu. Lazima aoge mwili wake katika maji na avae mavazi haya.
5 And he shall take of the congregation of the children of Israel two kids of the goats for a sin offering, and one ram for a burnt offering.
Lazima achukue kwenye umati wa watu wa Israeli mbuzi wawili waume kama sadaka ya dhambi na kondoo dume moja ikiwa ni sadaka ya kuteketezwa.
6 And Aaron shall offer his bullock of the sin offering, which is for himself, and make an atonement for himself, and for his house.
Ndipo Haruni lazima alete ng'ombe kama sadaka ya dhambi, ambayo itakuwa kwaajili yake mwenyewe, kufanya upatanisho kwaajili yake mwenyewe na familia yake.
7 And he shall take the two goats, and present them before the LORD at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
Ndipo lazima achukue mbuzi wawili na kuwaweka mbele ya Yahwe katika mlango wa kuingilia kwenye hema ya mkutano.
8 And Aaron shall cast lots on the two goats; one lot for the LORD, and the other lot for the scapegoat.
Ndipo Haruni lazima apige kura kwaajili ya mbuzi hao wawili, kura moja kwaajili ya Yahwe, na kura nyingine kwaajili ya msingiziwa.
9 And Aaron shall bring the goat on which the LORD’s lot fell, and offer him for a sin offering.
Ndipo Haruni lazima awasilishe mbuzi ambaye kura imeangukia kwa Yahwe, na kumtoa mbuzi huyo kama sadaka ya dhambi.
10 But the goat, on which the lot fell to be the scapegoat, shall be presented alive before the LORD, to make an atonement with him, and to let him go for a scapegoat into the wilderness.
Lakini mbuzi ambaye kura ya usingiziwa imemwangukia lazima aletwe kwa Yahwe akiwa hai, kufanya upatanisho kwa kumwachia aende porini kama, mbuzimsingiziwa.
11 And Aaron shall bring the bullock of the sin offering, which is for himself, and shall make an atonement for himself, and for his house, and shall kill the bullock of the sin offering which is for himself:
Pia Haruni lazima alete ng'ombe kwaajili ya sadaka ya dhambi, ambayo itakuwa kwaajili yake mwenyewe, lazima afanye upatanisho kwaajili yake mwenyewe na familia yake, hivyo lazima yeye amuue huyo ng'ombe kama sadaka ya dhambi kwaajili yake mwenyewe.
12 And he shall take a censer full of burning coals of fire from off the altar before the LORD, and his hands full of sweet incense beaten small, and bring it within the veil:
Haruni lazima achukue chetezo iliyojaa mkaa wa moto kutoka kwenye madhabahu mbele ya Yahwe, na mikono imejaa ubani mzuri, na kuleta vitu hivi ndani ya pazia.
13 And he shall put the incense on the fire before the LORD, that the cloud of the incense may cover the mercy seat that is on the testimony, that he die not:
Hapo lazima aweke ubani juu ya moto mbele za Yahwe ili kwamba wingu kutoka kwenye ubani liweze kufunika kifuniko cha agano la imani ya upatanisho. Yeye afanye hivyo ili kwamba asife.
14 And he shall take of the blood of the bullock, and sprinkle it with his finger on the mercy seat eastward; and before the mercy seat shall he sprinkle of the blood with his finger seven times.
Ndipo lazima achukue kiasi cha damu ya ng'ombe na kuinyunyiza kwa kidole chake mbele ya kifuniko cha upatanisho. Lazima anyunyize kiasi cha damu kwa kidole chake mara saba mbele ya kifuniko cha upatanisho.
15 Then shall he kill the goat of the sin offering, that is for the people, and bring his blood within the veil, and do with that blood as he did with the blood of the bullock, and sprinkle it on the mercy seat, and before the mercy seat:
Ndipo lazima aue mbuzi kwaajili ya sadaka ya dhambi ambayo ni kwaajili ya watu na kuileta damu yake ndani kwenye pazi. Hapo lazima aifanyie damu kama alivyofanya kwenye damu ya fahali: lazima ainyunyize juu ya kifuniko cha upatanisho na mbele ya kifunuko cha upatanisho.
16 And he shall make an atonement for the holy place, because of the uncleanness of the children of Israel, and because of their transgressions in all their sins: and so shall he do for the tabernacle of the congregation, that remains among them in the middle of their uncleanness.
Yeye lazima afanye upatanisho kwaajili ya mahali patakatifu kwa sababu ya matendo ya unajisi ya watu wa Israeli, na kwa sababu ya uasi na dhambi zao zote. Yeye pia lazima afanye haya kwaajili ya hema ya mkutano, ambapo Yahwe anaishi kati yao, katika uwepo wa matendo yao ya unajisi.
17 And there shall be no man in the tabernacle of the congregation when he goes in to make an atonement in the holy place, until he come out, and have made an atonement for himself, and for his household, and for all the congregation of Israel.
Hakuna mtu anayetakiwa kuwepo katika hema ya mkutano wakati Haruni anaingia kufanya upatanisho katika mahali patakatifu pa patakatifu, na mpaka atoke nje na amemaliza kufanya upatanisho kwaajili yake mwenyewe na kwaajili ya familia yake, na kwaajili umati wa Israeli.
18 And he shall go out to the altar that is before the LORD, and make an atonement for it; and shall take of the blood of the bullock, and of the blood of the goat, and put it on the horns of the altar round about.
Yeye lazima aende nje kwenye madhabahu hapo mbele za Yahwe na kufanya upatanisho kwaajili ya hiyo, na lazima achukue kiasi cha damu ya mbuzi na kuiweka juu ya pembe za madhabahu yote kuzunguka.
19 And he shall sprinkle of the blood on it with his finger seven times, and cleanse it, and hallow it from the uncleanness of the children of Israel.
Anatakiwa anyunyize kiasi cha damu juu yake kwa kidole chake mara saba kuitakasa na kuitenga maalumu kwa Yahwe, mbali kutoka matendo ya unajisi wa watu wa Israeli.
20 And when he has made an end of reconciling the holy place, and the tabernacle of the congregation, and the altar, he shall bring the live goat:
Atakapo maliza kupatanisha kwaajili ya mahali patakatifu sana, hema la mkutano, na madhabahu, lazima amlete mbuzi aliyehai.
21 And Aaron shall lay both his hands on the head of the live goat, and confess over him all the iniquities of the children of Israel, and all their transgressions in all their sins, putting them on the head of the goat, and shall send him away by the hand of a fit man into the wilderness:
Haruni lazima aweke mikono yake yote juu ya kichwa cha mbuzi huyu aliyehai na akiri juu yake maovu yote ya watu wa Israeli, uasi wao wote, dhambi zao zote. Ndipo lazima aweke dhambi hizo juu ya kichwa cha mbuzi na amwachie katika uangalizi wa mtu aliyetari kumwongoza mbuzi huyo porini.
22 And the goat shall bear on him all their iniquities to a land not inhabited: and he shall let go the goat in the wilderness.
Mbuzi lazima abebe juu yake mwenyewe uovu wote kwenda mahali pakiwa. Kule msituni, huyo mtu amwache mbuzi aende huru.
23 And Aaron shall come into the tabernacle of the congregation, and shall put off the linen garments, which he put on when he went into the holy place, and shall leave them there:
Ndipo Haruni anapaswa kwenda tena humo kwenye hema ya mkutano na kuvua mavazi ya kitani ambayo amayavaa kabla hajaenda mahali patakatifu sana, na anatakiwa kuyaacha mavazi hayo pale.
24 And he shall wash his flesh with water in the holy place, and put on his garments, and come forth, and offer his burnt offering, and the burnt offering of the people, and make an atonement for himself, and for the people.
Anapaswa aoshe mwili wake kwa maji mahali patakatifu, na avae nguo zake za kawaida; pia lazima atoke nje kutoa sadaka ya kuteketezwa na sadaka ya kuteketezwa na sadaka ya kuteketezwa kwaajili ya wale watu, na kwa njia hii anafanya upatanisho kwaajili yake mwenyewe na kwaajili ya watu.
25 And the fat of the sin offering shall he burn on the altar.
Lazima yeye achome mafuta ya sadaka ya dhambi juu ya madhabahu.
26 And he that let go the goat for the scapegoat shall wash his clothes, and bathe his flesh in water, and afterward come into the camp.
Huyu mtu anayemwacha mbuzi msingiziwa aende huru anafua nguo zake na kuosha mwili wake katika maji; baada ya hayo, anaweza kurudi tena kambini.
27 And the bullock for the sin offering, and the goat for the sin offering, whose blood was brought in to make atonement in the holy place, shall one carry forth without the camp; and they shall burn in the fire their skins, and their flesh, and their dung.
Yule fahali kwaajili ya sadaka ya dhambi na mbuzi kwaajili ya sadaka za dhambi, ambaye damu yake ililetwa kufanya upatanisho katika mahali patakatifu, lazima ipelekwe nje ya kambi. kule lazima wachome, ngozi zao, nyama yao na kinyesi chao.
28 And he that burns them shall wash his clothes, and bathe his flesh in water, and afterward he shall come into the camp.
Huyu anayechoma sehemu hizo lazima afue nguo zake na aoge mwili wake katika maji; baada ya hapo, anaweza kurudi tena kwenye kambi.
29 And this shall be a statute for ever to you: that in the seventh month, on the tenth day of the month, you shall afflict your souls, and do no work at all, whether it be one of your own country, or a stranger that sojourns among you:
Hii itakuwa sharti kwaajili yenu kwamba katika mwezi wa saba, kwenye siku ya kumi ya mwezi, mtanyenyekea wenyewe na msifanye kazi, iwe mwenyeji wa kuzaliwa au mgeni anayeishi kati yenu.
30 For on that day shall the priest make an atonement for you, to cleanse you, that you may be clean from all your sins before the LORD.
Hii ni kwasababu katika siku hii ya upatanisho utafanywa kwaajili yenu, kuwatakasa ninyi kutoka dhambi zenu zote ili mwe safi mbele za Yahwe.
31 It shall be a sabbath of rest to you, and you shall afflict your souls, by a statute for ever.
Hii ni maalumu kwa Sabato ya kupumzika kwaajili yenu, na lazima mnyenyekee wenyewe na msifanye kazi. Hili litakuwa sharti kati yenu.
32 And the priest, whom he shall anoint, and whom he shall consecrate to minister in the priest’s office in his father’s stead, shall make the atonement, and shall put on the linen clothes, even the holy garments:
Kuhani mkuu, ambaye atapakwa mafuta na kuwekwa wakfu kuwa kuhani mkuu katika nafasi ya baba yake, lazima afanye upatanisho huu na kuvaa mavazi ya kitani, hayo ni mavazi matakatifu.
33 And he shall make an atonement for the holy sanctuary, and he shall make an atonement for the tabernacle of the congregation, and for the altar, and he shall make an atonement for the priests, and for all the people of the congregation.
Lazima afanye upatanisho kwaajili ya mahali patakatifu sana; lazima afanye upatanisho kwaajili ya hema ya mkutano na madhabahu, na lazima afanye upatanisho kwaajili ya makuhani na kwaajili ya kusanyiko la watu.
34 And this shall be an everlasting statute to you, to make an atonement for the children of Israel for all their sins once a year. And he did as the LORD commanded Moses.
Hii daima itakuwa sharti kwaajili yako, kufanya upatanisho kwaajili ya watu wa Israeli kwasababu ya dhambi zao zote, mara moja kwa kila mwaka.” Na ilikuwa ikifanika kama Yahwe alivyomwamuru Musa.
