< Leviticus 17 >
1 And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
Awo Mukama n’agamba Musa nti,
2 “Speak to Aaron and to his sons, and to all the sons of Israel; and you have said to them: This [is] the thing which YHWH has commanded, saying,
“Tegeeza Alooni ne batabani be n’abaana ba Isirayiri bonna, obagambe nti, Kino Mukama ky’alagidde:
3 Any man of the house of Israel who slaughters ox, or lamb, or goat in the camp, or who slaughters [it] at the outside of the camp,
Omuntu yenna Omuyisirayiri anaawangayo ekiweebwayo eky’ente, oba endiga ento, oba embuzi, munda mu lusiisira oba ebweru w’olusiisira,
4 and has not brought it in to the opening of the Tent of Meeting to bring an offering near to YHWH before the Dwelling Place of YHWH, blood is reckoned to that man—he has shed blood—and that man has been cut off from the midst of his people;
nga tagireese ku mulyango gw’Eweema ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu, okugiwaayo ng’ekirabo ekiweebwayo eri Mukama Katonda mu kisasi ky’Eweema ya Mukama; omuntu oyo anaabanga azzizza omusango ogw’okuyiwa omusaayi; olwokubanga ayiye omusaayi, anaagobwanga n’agaanibwa okukolagananga ne banne.
5 so that the sons of Israel bring in their sacrifices which they are sacrificing on the face of the field, indeed, they have brought them to YHWH, to the opening of the Tent of Meeting, to the priest, and they have sacrificed sacrifices of peace-offerings to YHWH with them.
Ekyo kiri bwe kityo abaana ba Isirayiri balyoke balekeraawo okuweerangayo ebiweebwayo byabwe ebweru mu nnimiro, naye babireetenga awali Mukama Katonda. Kibagwanira okubireetanga eri Mukama babikwasenga kabona ku mulyango gw’Eweema ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu, ne biryoka bittibwa nga bye biweebwayo eri Mukama olw’emirembe.
6 And the priest has sprinkled the blood on the altar of YHWH, at the opening of the Tent of Meeting, and has made incense with the fat for refreshing fragrance to YHWH;
Kabona anaamansiranga omusaayi ku kyoto kya Mukama ku mulyango gw’Eweema ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu, amasavu n’agookya ne muvaamu akaloosa akalungi akasanyusa Mukama Katonda.
7 and they do not sacrifice their sacrifices anymore to the goat [idols] after which they are going whoring; this is a continuous statute to them, throughout their generations.
Tebasaana kwongera kuwangayo biweebwayo byabwe eri bakatonda be beekoledde mu kifaananyi ky’embuzi, be bakola nabyo eby’obwamalaaya. Eryo linaabanga tteeka lyabwe lya lubeerera n’okuyita mu mirembe egigenda okuddawo.
8 And you say to them: Any man of the house of Israel, or of the sojourners who sojourns in your midst, who causes burnt-offering or sacrifice to ascend,
“Era bagambe nti, Buli muntu yenna Omuyisirayiri, oba omunnaggwanga yenna abeera mu bo, aliwaayo ekiweebwayo ekyokebwa, oba ekiweebwayo eky’engeri yonna,
9 and does not bring it in to the opening of the Tent of Meeting to make it to YHWH—that man has been cut off from his people.
nga takireese ku mulyango gw’Eweema ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu, okukiwaayo eri Mukama Katonda, omuntu oyo anaagobwanga n’agaanibwa okukolagananga ne banne.
10 And any man of the house of Israel, or of the sojourners who is sojourning in your midst, who eats any blood, I have even set My face against the person who is eating the blood, and have cut him off from the midst of his people;
“Omuntu yenna Omuyisirayiri oba ow’omu bannamawanga ababeera mu Isirayiri bw’anaalyanga omusaayi ogw’engeri yonna, nnaamunyiigiranga oyo anaalyanga omusaayi, era nnaamugobanga ne mugaana okukolagananga ne banne.
11 for the life of the flesh is in the blood, and I have given it to you on the altar, to make atonement for your souls; for it [is] the blood which makes atonement for the soul.
Kubanga obulamu bw’ekitonde buli mu musaayi, ate nkibawadde okubatangiririra ku kyoto; omusaayi gwe gutangiririra obulamu bw’omuntu.
12 Therefore I have said to the sons of Israel: No person among you eats blood, and the sojourner who is sojourning in your midst does not eat blood;
Noolwekyo Abayisirayiri mbagamba nti tewabanga n’omu mu mmwe anaalyanga omusaayi, era ne munnaggwanga abeera mu mmwe naye taalyenga musaayi.
13 and any man of the sons of Israel, or of the sojourners who is sojourning in your midst, who hunts game, beast or bird, which is eaten—has even poured out its blood and covered it with dust;
“Omuyisirayiri yenna, oba omunnaggwanga abeera mu mmwe, bw’anaayigganga ensolo oba ennyonyi nga ya kulya, anaagikenenulangamu omusaayi n’agubikkako ettaka,
14 for [it is] the life of all flesh, its blood is for its life; and I say to the sons of Israel: You do not eat [the] blood of any flesh, for the life of all flesh is its blood; anyone eating it is cut off.
kubanga obulamu bwa buli kitonde gwe musaayi gwakyo. Abayisirayiri kyenvudde mbagamba nti temulyanga musaayi gwa kitonde eky’engeri yonna, kubanga obulamu bwa buli kitonde gwe musaayi gwakyo, omuntu yenna anaagulyanga anaagobwanga n’agaanibwa okukolagana ne banne.
15 And any person who eats a carcass or torn thing, among natives or among sojourners, has washed his garments and bathed with water, and been unclean until the evening—then he has been clean;
“Omuntu yenna omuzaaliranwa oba omunnaggwanga anaalyanga ekintu kyonna ekinaabanga kisangiddwa nga kifu, oba nga kitaaguddwataaguddwa ensolo enkambwe, anaayozanga ebyambalo bye, n’anaaba mu mazzi, era anaabeeranga atali mulongoofu okutuusa akawungeezi; oluvannyuma anaabeeranga mulongoofu.
16 and if he does not wash, and does not bathe his flesh—then he has borne his iniquity.”
Naye bw’ataayozenga byambalo bye, n’okunaaba n’atanaaba, ye anaabanga yeeretedde obutali bulongoofu bwe okumusigalako.”
