< Leviticus 23 >

1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
Yehova anawuza Mose kuti,
2 Speak to the children of Israel, and you shall say to them, The feasts of the Lord which you shall call holy assemblies, these are my feasts.
“Yankhula ndi Aisraeli ndipo uwawuze kuti, ‘Awa ndi masiku anga osankhika a chikondwerero, masiku osankhika olemekeza Yehova amene uyenera kulengeza kuti akhale masiku opatulika a misonkhano.
3 Six days shall you do works, but on the seventh day is the sabbath; a rest, a holy convocation to the Lord: you shall not do any work, it is a sabbath to the Lord in all your dwellings.
“‘Pa masiku asanu ndi limodzi muzigwira ntchito, koma tsiku lachisanu ndi chiwiri ndi Sabata lopuma, tsiku la msonkhano wopatulika. Kulikonse kumene inu mukukhala musamagwire ntchito iliyonse tsiku limeneli popeza ndi tsiku la Sabata la Yehova.
4 These [are] the feasts to the Lord, holy convocations, which you shall call in their seasons.
“‘Awa ndiwo masiku osankhidwa a zikondwerero za Yehova, masiku woyera a misonkhano amene muti mudzalengeze pa nthawi yake:
5 In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month, between the evening times is the Lord's passover.
Chikondwerero cha Paska chiziyamba madzulo a tsiku la 14 la mwezi woyamba.
6 And on the fifteenth day of this month is the feast of unleavened bread to the Lord; seven days shall you eat unleavened bread.
Tsiku la 15 la mwezi womwewo ndi tsiku lolemekeza Yehova ndipo muziyamba Chikondwerero cha Buledi Wopanda Yisiti. Muzidya buledi wopanda yisiti kwa masiku asanu ndi awiri.
7 And the first day shall be a holy convocation to you: you shall do no servile work.
Pa tsiku loyamba muzichita msonkhano wopatulika. Musamagwire ntchito iliyonse.
8 And you shall offer whole burnt offerings to the Lord seven days; and the seventh day shall be a holy convocation to you: you shall do no servile work.
Pa masiku asanu ndi awiri muzipereka nsembe yopsereza kwa Yehova. Ndipo tsiku lachisanu ndi chiwiri muzikhala ndi msonkhano wopatulika ndipo musamagwire ntchito yolemetsa.’”
9 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
Yehova anawuza Mose kuti,
10 Speak to the children of Israel, and you shall say to them, When you shall enter into the land which I give you, and reap the harvest of it, then shall you bring a sheaf, the first fruits of your harvest, to the priest;
“Yankhula ndi Aisraeli ndipo uwawuze kuti, ‘Mukakalowa mʼdziko limene ndikukupatsanilo ndi kukolola za mʼminda mwanu, mudzabwere kwa wansembe ndi mtolo wa tirigu woyambirira kucha wa mʼminda mwanu.
11 and he shall lift up the sheaf before the Lord, to be accepted for you. On the morrow of the first day the priest shall lift it up.
Wansembeyo auweyule mtolowo pamaso pa Yehova kotero mtolowo udzalandiridwa mʼmalo mwanu. Wansembe auweyule tsiku lotsatana ndi la Sabata.
12 And you shall offer on the day on which you bring the sheaf, a lamb without blemish of a year old for a whole burnt offering to the Lord.
Pa tsiku limene muweyula mtolowo, muperekenso mwana wankhosa wa mwamuna wa chaka chimodzi, wopanda chilema kuti akhale nsembe yopsereza ya kwa Yehova.
13 And its meat-offering two tenth portions of fine flour mingled with oil: it is a sacrifice to the Lord, a smell of sweet savor to the Lord, and its drink-offering the fourth part of a hin of wine.
Chopereka chachakudya chake chikhale cha makilogalamu awiri a ufa wosalala wosakaniza ndi mafuta kuti chikhale nsembe yopsereza yopereka kwa Yehova, ya fungo lokoma. Ndipo chopereka cha chakumwa chake chikhale vinyo wa malita anayi ndi theka.
14 And you shall not eat bread, or the new parched corn, until this same day, until you offer the sacrifices to your God: [it is] a perpetual statute throughout your generations in all your dwellings.
Musadye buledi aliyense kapena tirigu wokazinga, kapena wamuwisi mpaka tsiku limene mwabwera ndi chopereka ichi kwa Mulungu wanu. Limeneli ndi lamulo lamuyaya pa mibado yanu yonse, kulikonse kumene mukakhale.
15 And you shall number to yourselves from the day after the sabbath, from the day on which you shall offer the sheaf of the heave-offering, seven full weeks:
“‘Kuyambira tsiku lotsatana ndi la Sabata lija, tsiku limene munabwera ndi mtolo wa nsembe yoweyula, muziwerenga masabata asanu ndi awiri athunthu.
16 until the morrow after the last week you shall number fifty days, and shall bring a new meat-offering to the Lord.
Ndiye kuti muwerenge masiku makumi asanu kuchokera pa tsiku lotsatana ndi Sabata la chisanu ndi chiwiri, ndipo kenaka mupereke nsembe ya tirigu watsopano kwa Yehova.
17 You shall bring from your dwelling loaves, as a heave-offering, two loaves: they shall be of two tenth portions of fine flour, they shall be baked with leaven of the first fruits to the Lord.
Kuchokera kulikonse kumene mukukhala, mubwere pamaso pa Yehova ndi buledi muwiri wa ufa wosalala wa makilogalamu awiri, ophikidwa ndi yisiti kuti akhale nsembe yoweyula ya zakudya zoyamba kucha.
18 And you shall bring with the loaves seven unblemished lambs of a year old, and one calf of the herd, and two rams without blemish, and they shall be a whole burnt offering to the Lord: and their meat-offerings and their drink-offerings [shall be] a sacrifice, a smell of sweet savor to the Lord.
Pamodzi ndi bulediyu muperekenso ana ankhosa aamuna asanu ndi awiri, aliyense akhale wa chaka chimodzi ndi wopanda chilema. Pakhalenso ngʼombe yayingʼono yayimuna ndi nkhosa zazimuna ziwiri. Zimenezi zidzakhala nsembe zopsereza zopereka kwa Yehova pamodzi ndi nsembe za zakudya ndi nsembe za zakumwa. Zonsezi zikhale nsembe zopsereza za fungo lokomera Yehova.
19 And they shall sacrifice one kid of the goats for a sin-offering, and two lambs of a year old for a peace-offering, with the loaves of the first fruits.
Kenaka mupereke mbuzi imodzi yayimuna kuti ikhale nsembe yopepesera machimo ndiponso ana ankhosa awiri, aliyense wa chaka chimodzi kuti akhale nsembe yachiyanjano.
20 And the priest shall place them with the loaves of the first fruits an offering before the Lord with the two lambs, they shall be holy to the Lord; they shall belong to the priest that brings them.
Wansembe aweyule ana ankhosa awiriwo pamaso pa Yehova monga nsembe yoweyula, pamodzi ndi buledi wa tirigu woyambirira kucha. Zimenezi ndi zopereka zopatulika za Yehova zopatsidwa kwa ansembe.
21 And you shall call this day a convocation: it shall be holy to you; you shall do no servile work on it: it is a perpetual ordinance throughout your generations in all your habitations.
Pa tsiku lomwelo mulengeze za msonkhano wopatulika ndipo musagwire ntchito zolemetsa. Limeneli ndi lamulo lamuyaya pa mibado yanu yonse, kulikonse kumene mukakhale.
22 And when you shall reap the harvest of your land, you shall not fully reap the remainder of the harvest of your field when you reap, and you shall not gather that which falls from your reaping; you shall leave it for the poor and the stranger: I [am] the Lord your God.
“‘Pamene mukukolola zinthu mʼmunda mwanu, musakolole munda wanu mpaka mʼmalire mwenimweni, ndipo musatole khunkha lake. Zimenezo musiyire anthu osauka ndi alendo. Ine ndine Yehova Mulungu wanu.’”
23 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
Yehova anawuza Mose kuti,
24 Speak to the children of Israel, saying, In the seventh month, on the first day of the month, you shall have a rest, a memorial of trumpets: it shall be to you a holy convocation.
“Uza Aisraeli kuti, ‘Tsiku loyamba la mwezi wachisanu ndi chiwiri, likhale tsiku lopumula, la msonkhano wopatulika, mulilengeze poyimba lipenga.
25 You shall do no servile work, and you shall offer a whole burnt offering to the Lord.
Musagwire ntchito zolemetsa koma mupereke nsembe yopsereza kwa Yehova.’”
26 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
Yehova anawuza Mose kuti,
27 Also on the tenth day of this seventh month is a day of atonement: it shall be a holy convocation to you; and you shall humble your souls, and offer a whole burnt offering to the Lord.
“Tsiku lakhumi la mwezi wachisanu ndi chiwiri ndi tsiku lochita Mwambo Wopepesera Machimo. Muzichita msonkhano wopatulika. Muzidzichepetsa pamaso pa Yehova ndi kupereka nsembe zopsereza kwa Yehova.
28 You shall do no work on this self-same day: for this is a day of atonement for you, to make atonement for you before the Lord your God.
Tsiku limeneli musamagwire ntchito chifukwa ndi tsiku la Mwambo Wopepesera Machimo, kupepesera machimo anu pamaso pa Yehova Mulungu wanu.
29 Every soul that shall not be humbled in that day, shall be cut off from among its people.
Munthu aliyense amene sasala zakudya pa tsiku limeneli ayenera kuchotsedwa pakati pa anthu a mtundu wake.
30 And every soul which shall do work on that day, that soul shall be destroyed from among its people.
Aliyense wogwira ntchito tsiku limeneli ndidzamuwononga pakati pa anthu a mtundu wake.
31 You shall do no manner of work: it is a perpetual statute throughout your generations in all your habitations.
Inu musadzagwire ntchito iliyonse. Limeneli ndi lamulo lamuyaya pa mibado yanu yonse, kulikonse kumene mukakhale.
32 It shall be a holy sabbath to you; and you shall humble your souls, from the ninth day of the month: from evening to evening you shall keep your sabbaths.
Limeneli kwa inu ndi tsiku la Sabata lopumula, ndipo muyenera kusala zakudya. Kuyambira madzulo a tsiku lachisanu ndi chinayi la mwezi mpaka madzulo ena otsatirawo muzisunga tsikulo ngati Sabata lanu.”
33 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
Yehova anawuza Mose kuti,
34 Speak to the children of Israel, saying, On the fifteenth day of this seventh month, there shall be a feast of tabernacles seven days to the Lord.
“Uwawuze Aisraeli kuti pa masiku asanu ndi awiri kuyambira pa tsiku la 15 la mwezi wachisanu ndi chiwiri pazikhala Chikondwerero cha Misasa cholemekeza Yehova.
35 And on the first day shall be a holy convocation; you shall do no servile work.
Tsiku loyamba ndi la msonkhano wopatulika, musagwire ntchito zolemetsa.
36 Seven days shall you offer whole burnt offerings to the Lord, and the eighth-day shall be a holy convocation to you; and you shall offer whole burnt offerings to the Lord: it is a time of release, you shall do no servile work.
Pa masiku asanu ndi awiri muzipereka nsembe zopsereza kwa Yehova. Ndipo pa tsiku lachisanu ndi chitatu muzikhala ndi msonkhano wopatulika ndipo muzipereka nsembe yopsereza kwa Yehova. Kumeneku ndi kutsekera kwa msonkhano waukulu. Musagwire ntchito zolemetsa.
37 These [are] the feasts to the Lord, which you shall call holy convocations, to offer burnt offerings to the Lord, whole burnt offerings and their meat-offerings, and their drink-offerings, that for each day on its day:
(“‘Amenewa ndi masiku osankhika a chikondwerero cha Yehova, amene muziwalengeza kuti ndi nthawi ya msonkhano wopatulika. Masiku amenewa muzipereka nsembe zopsereza, nsembe za chakudya, nsembe zanyama ndi zopereka zachakumwa za tsiku ndi tsiku.
38 besides the sabbaths of the Lord, and besides your gifts, and besides all your vows, and besides your free will offerings, which you shall give to the Lord.
Zopereka zimenezi ndi zowonjezera pa zopereka za Yehova za pa Sabata, zopereka zanu zolumbira ndiponso mphatso zanu zaufulu zopereka kwa Yehova.)
39 And on the fifteenth day of this seventh month, when you shall have completely gathered in the fruits of the earth, you shall keep a feast to the Lord seven days; on the first day there shall be a rest, and on the eighth day a rest.
“‘Choncho kuyambira pa tsiku la 15 la mwezi wachisanu ndi chiwiri, mutakolola zinthu mʼmunda mwanu, muchite chikondwerero cha Yehova kwa masiku asanu ndi awiri. Tsiku loyamba ndi tsiku lopumula, ndipo tsiku lachisanu ndi chitatu ndi lopumulanso.
40 And on the first day you shall take goodly fruit of trees, and branches of palm trees, and thick boughs of trees, and willows, and branches of osiers from the brook, to rejoice before the Lord your God seven days in the year.
Pa tsiku loyamba muzitenga zipatso zabwino kwambiri zothyola mʼmitengo, nthambi za kanjedza, nthambi zazikulu za mitengo ya masamba ambiri, ndi za misondozi yakumtsinje, ndipo muzikondwera pamaso pa Yehova Mulungu wanu kwa masiku asanu ndi awiri.
41 [It is] a perpetual statute for your generations: in the seventh month you shall keep it.
Chaka chilichonse muzichita chikondwerero cha Yehova kwa masiku asanu ndi awiri. Limeneli ndi lamulo lamuyaya pa mibado yanu yonse. Muzichita chikondwerero chimenechi mwezi wachisanu ndi chiwiri.
42 Seven days you shall dwell in tabernacles: every native in Israel shall dwell in tents,
Muzikhala mʼmisasa masiku asanu ndi awiri. Onse amene ali mbadwa mʼdziko la Israeli azikhala mʼmisasa
43 that your posterity may see, that I made the children of Israel to dwell in tents, when I brought them out of the land of Egypt: I [am] the Lord your God.
kuti zidzukulu zanu zidzadziwe kuti ndine amene ndinakhazika Aisraeli mʼmisasa nditawatulutsa ku Igupto. Ine ndine Yehova Mulungu wanu.’”
44 And Moses recounted the feasts of the Lord to the children of Israel.
Choncho Mose analengeza kwa Aisraeli masiku osankhika a zikondwerero za Yehova.
