< Leviticus 4 >

1 And Yhwh spake unto Moses, saying,
Bwana alisema na Musa na kumwambi,
2 Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, If a soul shall sin through ignorance against any of the commandments of Yhwh concerning things which ought not to be done, and shall do against any of them:
“Waambie wana wa Israeli 'mtu yeyote akifanya dhambi bila kukusudia, kufanya chochote ambacho Bwana ameagiza kutofanya, na kama akifanya chochote kilichozuiliwa, yafuatayo lazima yatatendeka.
3 If the priest that is anointed do sin according to the sin of the people; then let him bring for his sin, which he hath sinned, a young bullock without blemish unto Yhwh for a sin offering.
Kama ni kuhani mkuu aliyetenda dhambi na kuleta hatia kwa watu, atatoa dume asiyekuwa na kasoro kwa Bwana kwa ajili ya dhambi aliyotenda kama sadaka ya dhambi.
4 And he shall bring the bullock unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation before Yhwh; and shall lay his hand upon the bullock’s head, and kill the bullock before Yhwh.
Ataleta dume mbele ya mlango wa hema ya kukutania mbele ya Bwana, ataweka mikono juu ya dume, na atamchinja huyo dume mbele za Bwana.
5 And the priest that is anointed shall take of the bullock’s blood, and bring it to the tabernacle of the congregation:
Kuhani aliyewekewa mafuta atachukua damu ya dume na kuileta mbele ya hema ya kukutania.
6 And the priest shall dip his finger in the blood, and sprinkle of the blood seven times before Yhwh, before the vail of the sanctuary.
Kuhani atazamisha kidole chake katika damu na kuinyunyiza mara saba mbele za Bwana, mbele ya pazia la mahali pa takatifu.
7 And the priest shall put some of the blood upon the horns of the altar of sweet incense before Yhwh, which is in the tabernacle of the congregation; and shall pour all the blood of the bullock at the bottom of the altar of the burnt offering, which is at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
Na kuhani ataweka kiasi cha damu ya huyo dume juu ya pembe za madhabahu ya kuvukizia uvumba mbele za Bwana, katika hema ya kukutania na ataimwaga yote iliyobaki chini ya madhabahu ya sadaka ya kuteketezwa, iliyo mahali pa kuinglia katika hema ya kukutania.
8 And he shall take off from it all the fat of the bullock for the sin offering; the fat that covereth the inwards, and all the fat that is upon the inwards,
Atakata mafuta yote ya dume wa sadaka ya dhambi, mafuta yanayofunika matumbo na mafuta yote yaliyo katika matumbo,
9 And the two kidneys, and the fat that is upon them, which is by the flanks, and the caul above the liver, with the kidneys, it shall he take away,
figo mbili na mafuta yaliyopo pamoja nazo, yaliyo karibu na kiuno na kitambi cha maini pamoja na hizo figo.
10 As it was taken off from the bullock of the sacrifice of peace offerings: and the priest shall burn them upon the altar of the burnt offering.
Ataondoa zote vile vile kama yanavyoondolewa katika dume wa sadaka ya dhabihu ya amani. Kuhani atatekeza sehemu hizo katika madhabahu ya sadaka za kuteketezwa.
11 And the skin of the bullock, and all his flesh, with his head, and with his legs, and his inwards, and his dung,
Ngozi ya dume na mabaki yoyote ya nyama, pamoja na kichwa chake, miguu yake, matumbo yake na mavi yake,
12 Even the whole bullock shall he carry forth without the camp unto a clean place, where the ashes are poured out, and burn him on the wood with fire: where the ashes are poured out shall he be burnt.
mabaki yote ya dume atayachukua nje ya mji mahali palipo safi, mahali wanapomwaga majivu; watateketeza sehemu zote juu ya kuni. Watateketeza sehemu zote mahali wanapomwaga majivu.
13 And if the whole congregation of Israel sin through ignorance, and the thing be hid from the eyes of the assembly, and they have done somewhat against any of the commandments of Yhwh concerning things which should not be done, and are guilty;
Kama mkutano wote wa wana wa Israeli wakitenda dhambi bila kukusudia, na mkutano hawatakumbuka kwamba wametenda dhambi, na kufanya vile Bwana aliagiza wasifanye na wakajisikia hatia.
14 When the sin, which they have sinned against it, is known, then the congregation shall offer a young bullock for the sin, and bring him before the tabernacle of the congregation.
Na dhambi waliyofanya ikajulikana, mkutano watatoa ng'ombe dume mchanga kuwa sadaka ya dhambi watamleta mbele ya hema ya kukutania.
15 And the elders of the congregation shall lay their hands upon the head of the bullock before Yhwh: and the bullock shall be killed before Yhwh.
Wazee wa mkutano wataweka mikono yao juu ya kichwa cha ng'ombe mbele za Bwana, na ng'ombe atachinjwa mbele za Bwana.
16 And the priest that is anointed shall bring of the bullock’s blood to the tabernacle of the congregation:
Kuhani aliyetiwa mafuta ataleta damu ya ng'ombe katika hema ya kukutania,
17 And the priest shall dip his finger in some of the blood, and sprinkle it seven times before Yhwh, even before the vail.
kuhani atachovya kidole chake katika damu na kuinyunyizia mara saba mbele za Bwana mbele ya pazia.
18 And he shall put some of the blood upon the horns of the altar which is before Yhwh, that is in the tabernacle of the congregation, and shall pour out all the blood at the bottom of the altar of the burnt offering, which is at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
Ataweka kiasi cha damu katika pembe za madhabahu mbele za Bwana iliyo katika hema ya kukutania na ataimwaga damu yote chini ya madhabahu ya sadaka ya kuteketezwa, iliyo katika mlango wa kuingilia katika hema ya kukutania.
19 And he shall take all his fat from him, and burn it upon the altar.
Atakata mafuta yote na kuyatekeza katika madhabahu.
20 And he shall do with the bullock as he did with the bullock for a sin offering, so shall he do with this: and the priest shall make an atonement for them, and it shall be forgiven them.
Hivyo ndivyo atakavyomfanya huyo ng'ombe, kama alivyomfanya ng'ombe wa sadaka ya dhambi, atamfanyia vivyo hivyo huyu ng'ombe, kuhani atawafanyia upatanisho watu nao watasamehewa.
21 And he shall carry forth the bullock without the camp, and burn him as he burned the first bullock: it is a sin offering for the congregation.
Atamchukua huyo ng'ombe nje ya mji na kumteketeza kama alivyomteketeza ng, ombe wa kwanza. Hii ni sadaka ya dhambi kwa ajili ya mkutano.
22 When a ruler hath sinned, and done somewhat through ignorance against any of the commandments of Yhwh his God concerning things which should not be done, and is guilty;
Mtawala akitenda dhambi bila kukusudia kufanya moja ya yale Bwana Mungu wake ameagiza kutotenda, na anajisikia hatia
23 Or if his sin, wherein he hath sinned, come to his knowledge; he shall bring his offering, a kid of the goats, a male without blemish:
na kama dhambi yake aliyotenda anaifahamu, ataleta dhabihu yake mbuzi mme asiye na kasoro.
24 And he shall lay his hand upon the head of the goat, and kill it in the place where they kill the burnt offering before Yhwh: it is a sin offering.
Ataweka mkono wake juu ya kichwa cha mbuzi na kumchinja mahali ambapo huchinja sadaka ya kuteketezwa mbele za Bwana. Hii ni sadaka ya dhambi.
25 And the priest shall take of the blood of the sin offering with his finger, and put it upon the horns of the altar of burnt offering, and shall pour out his blood at the bottom of the altar of burnt offering.
Kuhani atachukua damu ya sadaka ya dhambi kwa kidole chake na kuiweka juu ya pembe za madhabahu kwa dhabihu ya kuteketezwa, na atamwaga damu chini ya madhabahu ya dhabihu ya kuteketezwa.
26 And he shall burn all his fat upon the altar, as the fat of the sacrifice of peace offerings: and the priest shall make an atonement for him as concerning his sin, and it shall be forgiven him.
Atateketeza mafuta yote katika madhabahu, kama vile mafuta ya dhabihu ya sadaka ya amani, Kuhani atafanya upatanisho kwa ajili ya mtawala kulingana na dhambi yake, na mtawala atakuwa amesamehewa.
27 And if any one of the common people sin through ignorance, while he doeth somewhat against any of the commandments of Yhwh concerning things which ought not to be done, and be guilty;
Kama yeyote wa watu wa kawaida akitenda dhambi bila kukusudia, kufanya vitu ambavyo Bwana ameagiza kutokufanywa na kama ana hatia,
28 Or if his sin, which he hath sinned, come to his knowledge: then he shall bring his offering, a kid of the goats, a female without blemish, for his sin which he hath sinned.
ndipo dhambi yake aliyoitenda ikajulikana kwake, ndipo ataleta mbuzi mke asiyekuwa na kasoro awe dhabihu kwa ajili ya dhambi zake alizotenda.
29 And he shall lay his hand upon the head of the sin offering, and slay the sin offering in the place of the burnt offering.
Ataweka mikono yake juu ya sadaka ya dhambi na kuchinja sadaka ya dhambi mahali pa sadaka ya kuteketezwa.
30 And the priest shall take of the blood thereof with his finger, and put it upon the horns of the altar of burnt offering, and shall pour out all the blood thereof at the bottom of the altar.
Kuhani atachukua kiasi cha damu kwa kidole chake na kuweka katika pembe za madhabahu ya dhabihu ya kuteketezwa. Damu yote iliyobaki ataimwaga chini ya madhabahu.
31 And he shall take away all the fat thereof, as the fat is taken away from off the sacrifice of peace offerings; and the priest shall burn it upon the altar for a sweet savour unto Yhwh; and the priest shall make an atonement for him, and it shall be forgiven him.
Atayaondoa mafuta yote, kama alivyoondoa mafuta katika dhabihu ya amani. Kuhani ataiteketeza katika madhabahu ili kuwa harufu nzuri kwa Bwana. Kuhani atafanya upatanisho kwa mtu, na atasamehewa.
32 And if he bring a lamb for a sin offering, he shall bring it a female without blemish.
Kama mtu ataleta mwanakondoo kama dhabihu yake kwa sadaka ya dhambi, ataleta jike asiye na kasoro.
33 And he shall lay his hand upon the head of the sin offering, and slay it for a sin offering in the place where they kill the burnt offering.
Ataweka mikono kichwani mwa sadaka ya dhambi na atamchinja kuwa sadaka ya dhambi mahali wanapochinjwa sadaka ya kuteketezwa.
34 And the priest shall take of the blood of the sin offering with his finger, and put it upon the horns of the altar of burnt offering, and shall pour out all the blood thereof at the bottom of the altar:
Kuhani atachukua baadhi ya damu ya sadaka ya dhambi kwa kidole chake na kuweka katika pembe za madhabahu kwa ajili ya sadaka za kuteketezwa, na ataimwaga damu yote chini ya madhabahu.
35 And he shall take away all the fat thereof, as the fat of the lamb is taken away from the sacrifice of the peace offerings; and the priest shall burn them upon the altar, according to the offerings made by fire unto Yhwh: and the priest shall make an atonement for his sin that he hath committed, and it shall be forgiven him.
Ataondoa mafuta yote, kama akatavyo mafuta ya mwanakondoo dhabihu ya sadaka ya amani na kuhani ataiteketeza juu ya madhabahu juu ya sadaka ya Bwana itolewayo kwa moto. Kuhani ataleta upatanisho kwa dhambi aliyoifanya, naye atasamehewa.
