Leviticus 11
1 And YHWH speaks to Moses and to Aaron, saying to them,
INkosi yasikhuluma kuMozisi lakuAroni isithi kibo:
2 “Speak to the sons of Israel, saying, This [is] the beast which you eat out of all the beasts which [are] on the earth:
Tshonini ebantwaneni bakoIsrayeli lithi: Lezi zinyamazana elingazidla kuzo zonke inyamazana ezisemhlabeni.
3 any dividing a hoof, and cleaving the cleft of the hooves, bringing up the cud, among the beasts—you eat it.
Konke okwehlukanisa isondo lokwehlukanisa isondo kabili lokwetshisayo phakathi kwenyamazana, lokhu lizakudla.
4 Only, this you do not eat, of those bringing up the cud, and of those dividing the hoof: the camel, though it is bringing up the cud, yet the hoof is not dividing—it [is] unclean to you;
Kodwa lezi kaliyikuzidla kulezo ezetshisayo kumbe kulezo ezehlukanisa isondo: Ikamela, ngoba liyetshisa, kodwa kalehlukanisi amasondo; lingcolile kini.
5 and the hyrax, though it is bringing up the cud, yet the hoof is not divided—it [is] unclean to you;
Lembila, ngoba iyetshisa, kodwa kayehlukanisi isondo; ingcolile kini.
6 and the hare, though it is bringing up the cud, yet the hoof has not divided—it [is] unclean to you;
Lomvundla, ngoba uyetshisa, kodwa kawehlukanisi isondo; ungcolile kini.
7 and the sow, though it is dividing the hoof, and cleaving the cleft of the hoof, yet it does not bring up the cud—it [is] unclean to you.
Lengulube, ngoba iyehlukanisa isondo lokwehlukanisa isondo kube kubili kodwa kayetshisi; ingcolile kini.
8 You do not eat of their flesh, and you do not come against their carcass—they [are] unclean to you.
Lingadli okwenyama yazo, lingathinti isidumbu sazo; zingcolile kini.
9 This you eat of all which [are] in the waters: anything that has fins and scales in the waters, in the seas, and in the brooks, them you eat;
Lezi lingazidla kuzo zonke ezisemanzini: Zonke ezilempiko lamaxolo, emanzini, enlwandle lemifuleni, lezo lingazidla.
10 and anything that does not have fins and scales in the seas, and in the brooks, of any teeming creature of the waters, and of any creature which lives, which [is] in the waters—they [are] an abomination to you;
Kodwa zonke ezingelampiko lamaxolo enlwandle lemifuleni, phakathi kwazo zonke ezibhinqika emanzini laphakathi kwaso sonke isidalwa esiphilayo esisemanzini, ziyisinengiso kini.
11 indeed, they are an abomination to you; you do not eat of their flesh, and you detest their carcass.
Yebo, zizakuba yisinengiso kini; lingadli okwenyama yazo; kodwa lizanengwa yisidumbu sazo.
12 Anything that does not have fins and scales in the waters—it [is] an abomination to you.
Konke okungelampiko lamaxolo emanzini, kuyisinengiso kini.
13 And these you detest of the bird—they are not eaten, they [are] an abomination: the eagle, and the bearded vulture, and the osprey,
Lezi-ke lizanengwa yizo phakathi kwezinyoni; kaziyikudliwa, ziyisinengiso; ukhozi lelinqe lengqungqulu edla inhlanzi,
14 and the kite, and the falcon after its kind,
lomzwazwa, lohelwane ngohlobo lwalo,
15 every raven after its kind,
lonke iwabayi ngohlobo lwalo,
16 and the ostrich, and the nightjar [[or male ostrich]], and the seagull, and the hawk after its kind,
lesikhova, lomandukulo, lenkanku, lokhozi ngohlobo lwalo,
17 and the little owl, and the cormorant, and the great owl,
lesikhova esincinyane, letshayamanzi, lesikhova esikhulu,
18 and the waterhen, and the pelican, and the Egyptian vulture,
lesikhova esimhlophe, lewunkwe, lelinqe elikhulu,
19 and the stork, the heron after its kind, and the hoopoe, and the bat.
lengabuzane, ihemu ngohlobo lwalo, lemvenduna, lolulwane.
20 Every teeming creature which is flying, which is going on four [legs]—it [is] an abomination to you.
Zonke izibungu ezilempiko ezihamba ngezine ziyisinengiso kini.
21 Only, this you eat of any teeming thing which is flying, which is going on four, which has legs above its feet, to move with them on the earth;
Kodwa lezi lizazidla ezibungwini ezilempiko ezihamba ngezine ezilemilenze ephezu kwenyawo zazo ezeqa ngayo emhlabeni;
22 these of them you eat: the locust after its kind, and the bald locust after its kind, and the cricket after its kind, and the grasshopper after its kind;
lezi lingadla kuzo: Isikhonyane ngohlobo lwaso, lonyelele ngohlobo lwakhe, lediye ngohlobo lwalo, lentethe ngohlobo lwayo.
23 and every teeming thing which is flying, which has four feet—it [is] an abomination to you.
Kodwa zonke izibungu ezilempiko, ezilenyawo ezine, ziyisinengiso kini.
24 And you are made unclean by these; anyone who is coming against their carcass is unclean until the evening;
Langalezi lizangcoliswa; wonke othinta isidumbu sazo uzakuba ngongcolileyo kuze kuhlwe.
25 and anyone who is lifting up of their carcass washes his garments, and has been unclean until the evening—
Njalo wonke ophakamisa okwesidumbu sazo uzahlamba izembatho zakhe, abe ngongcolileyo kuze kuhlwe.
26 even every beast which is dividing the hoof, and is not cloven-footed, and is not bringing up the cud—they [are] unclean to you; anyone who is coming against them is unclean.
Yonke inyamazana eyehlukanisa isondo, kodwa ingehlukanisi isondo kabili, njalo ingetshisi, ingcolile kini; wonke oyithintayo uzangcola.
27 And anything going on its paws, among all the beasts which are going on four—they [are] unclean to you; anyone who is coming against their carcass is unclean until the evening;
Konke-ke okuhamba ngezidladla zakho, phakathi kwazo zonke inyamazana ezihamba ngezine, zingcolile kini; wonke othinta isidumbu sazo uzangcola kuze kuhlwe.
28 and he who is lifting up their carcass washes his garments, and has been unclean until the evening—they [are] unclean to you.
Lothwala isidumbu sazo uzahlamba izembatho zakhe, abe ngongcolileyo kuze kuhlwe; zingcolile kini.
29 And this [is] the unclean to you among the teeming things which are teeming on the earth: the weasel, and the muroid, and the tortoise [[or large lizard]] after its kind,
Futhi lezi zizakuba ngezingcolileyo kini, phakathi kwezihuquzelayo ezihuquzelayo emhlabeni; ubuchakide, legundwane, legwababa ngohlobo lwalo,
30 and the gecko [[or ferret]], and the chameleon, and the lizard, and the snail, and the mole;
lontulo, lembulumakhasana, lombankwa, lesiqhuza, lonwabu.
31 these [are] the unclean to you among all which are teeming; anyone who is coming against them in their death is unclean until the evening.
Lezi zingcolile kini phakathi kwazo zonke ezihuquzelayo; wonke ozithintayo sezifile uzakuba ngongcolileyo kuze kuhlwe.
32 And anything on which anyone of them falls, in their death, is unclean, of any vessel of wood or garment or skin or sack, any vessel in which work is done is brought into water, and has been unclean until the evening, then it has been clean;
Konke-ke ewela phezu kwakho enye yazo isifile kuzakuba ngokungcolileyo, lokwasiphi isitsha sesihlahla, loba isembatho, loba isikhumba, loba isaka, lasiphi isitsha okusetshenzwa ngaso; kuzafakwa emanzini, njalo kuzakuba ngokungcolileyo kuze kuhlwe; khona kuzahlambuluka.
33 and any earthen vessel, into the midst of which [any] one of them falls, all that [is] in its midst is unclean, and you break it.
Layo yonke imbiza yebumba ewela phakathi kwayo enye yazo, konke okukiyo kuzakuba ngokungcolileyo, njalo lizayibulala.
34 Of all the food which is eaten, that on which comes [such] water, is unclean, and all drink which is drunk in any [such] vessel is unclean;
Ekudleni konke okudliwayo afike kukho amanzi kuzakuba ngokungcolileyo; lakuphi okunathwayo okunganathwa phakathi kwaloba yiyiphi imbiza enjalo kuzakuba ngokungcolileyo.
35 and anything on which [any] of their carcass falls is unclean; oven or double pots, it is broken down, they [are] unclean, indeed, they are unclean to you.
Konke-ke okuwela kukho okwesidumbu sazo kuzakuba ngokungcolileyo; iziko loba isitofu, kuzaphohlozwa, kungcolile, futhi kuzakuba ngokungcolileyo kini.
36 Only, a fountain or pit, a collection of water, is clean, but that which is coming against their carcass is unclean;
Kodwa umthombo loba umgodi aqoqene khona amanzi uzakuba ngohlambulukileyo; kodwa okuthinta izidumbu zazo kuzakuba ngokungcolileyo.
37 and when [any] of their carcass falls on any sown seed which is sown—it [is] clean;
Njalo uba okwesidumbu sazo kuwela phezu kwenhlanyelo ehlanyelwayo ezahlanyelwa, ihlambulukile;
38 and when water is put on the seed, and [any] of its carcass has fallen on it—it [is] unclean to you.
kodwa uba okwamanzi kufakwa enhlanyelweni, lokwesidumbu sazo kuwela phezu kwayo, ingcolile kini.
39 And when any of the beasts which are for food for you dies, he who is coming against its carcass is unclean until the evening;
Uba kusifa-ke enyamazaneni eyikudla kini, othinta isidumbu sayo uzakuba ngongcolileyo kuze kuhlwe.
40 and he who is eating of its carcass washes his garments, and has been unclean until the evening; and he who is lifting up its carcass washes his garments, and has been unclean until the evening.
Lodla okwesidumbu sayo uzahlamba izembatho zakhe, abe ngongcolileyo kuze kuhlwe; lothwala isidumbu sayo uzawatsha izembatho zakhe, abe ngongcolileyo kuze kuhlwe.
41 And every teeming thing which is teeming on the earth is an abomination, it is not eaten;
Lazo zonke ezihuquzelayo ezihuquzela emhlabeni ziyisinengiso; kaziyikudliwa.
42 anything going on the belly, and any going on four, to every multiplier of feet, to every teeming thing which is teeming on the earth—you do not eat them, for they [are] an abomination;
Konke okuhamba ngesisu, lakho konke okuhamba ngezine, kuze kube yikho konke okulenyawo ezinengi, phakathi kwazo zonke ezihuquzelayo ezihuquzela emhlabeni kaliyikukudla, ngoba kuyisinengiso.
43 you do not make yourselves abominable with any teeming thing which is teeming, nor do you make yourselves unclean with them, so that you have been unclean with them.
Lingazenzi linengeke langakuphi okuhuquzelayo kuhuquzela, lingazingcolisi ngakho ukuthi lingcoliswe yikho.
44 For I [am] your God YHWH, and you have sanctified yourselves, and you have been holy, for I [am] holy; and you do not defile your persons with any teeming thing which is creeping on the earth;
Ngoba ngiyiNkosi uNkulunkulu wenu. Ngakho zingcweliseni, libe ngcwele, ngoba ngingcwele. Lingazingcolisi langakuphi okuhuquzelayo okuhuquzela emhlabeni.
45 for I [am] YHWH who am bringing you up out of the land of Egypt to become your God; and you have been holy, for I [am] holy.
Ngoba ngiyiNkosi eyalenyusa lisuka elizweni leGibhithe ukuthi ngibe nguNkulunkulu wenu. Ngakho banini ngcwele, ngoba ngingcwele.
46 This [is] a law of the beasts, and of the bird, and of every living creature which is moving in the waters, and of every creature which is teeming on the earth,
Lo ngumlayo wezinyamazana lezinyoni, laso sonke isidalwa esiphilayo esibhinqika emanzini lakuso sonke isidalwa esihuquzela emhlabeni,
47 to make separation between the unclean and the pure, and between the beast that is eaten, and the beast that is not eaten.”
ukwehlukanisa phakathi kokungcolileyo lokuhlambulukileyo, laphakathi kokuphilayo okungadliwa lokuphilayo okungadliwayo.
