Leviticus 24
1 And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
Bwana akamwambia Mose,
2 “Command the sons of Israel, and they bring pure oil of beaten olive to you for the lamp, to cause a light to go up continually;
“Waagize Waisraeli wakuletee mafuta safi ya zeituni yaliyokamuliwa kwa ajili ya mwanga ili taa ziwe zinawaka daima.
3 Aaron arranges it at the outside of the veil of the Testimony, in the Tent of Meeting, from evening until morning before YHWH continually—a continuous statute throughout your generations;
Nje ya pazia la Ushuhuda ndani ya Hema la Kukutania, Aroni ataziwasha taa mbele za Bwana kuanzia jioni hadi asubuhi bila kuzima. Hili litakuwa agizo la kudumu kwa vizazi vijavyo.
4 he arranges the lights on the pure lampstand before YHWH continually.
Taa zilizo juu ya kinara cha dhahabu safi mbele za Bwana lazima zihudumiwe daima.
5 And you have taken flour, and have baked twelve cakes with it, two-tenth parts are in one cake,
“Chukua unga laini, uoke mikate kumi na miwili, ukitumia sehemu mbili za kumi za efa za unga kwa kila mkate.
6 and you have set them [in] two rows (six in the row) on the pure table before YHWH,
Iweke katika mistari miwili, kila mstari mikate sita, uiweke mbele za Bwana juu ya meza iliyotengenezwa kwa dhahabu safi.
7 and you have put pure frankincense on the row, and it has been with the bread for a memorial, a fire-offering to YHWH.
Kando ya kila mstari, weka uvumba safi kama sehemu ya kumbukumbu ili kuwakilisha mikate kuwa sadaka iliyotolewa kwa Bwana kwa kuteketezwa kwa moto.
8 On each Sabbath day he arranges it before YHWH continually, from the sons of Israel—a perpetual covenant;
Mikate hii itawekwa mbele za Bwana kila wakati, Sabato baada ya Sabato, kwa niaba ya Waisraeli, kuwa Agano la kudumu.
9 and it has been for Aaron and for his sons, and they have eaten it in the holy place, for it [is] most holy to him, from the fire-offerings of YHWH—a continuous statute.”
Hii ni mali ya Aroni na wanawe, watakaoila katika mahali patakatifu, kwa sababu ni sehemu takatifu sana ya fungu lao la kawaida la sadaka iliyotolewa kwa Bwana kwa kuteketezwa kwa moto.”
10 And a son of an Israeli woman goes out (and he [is] son of an Egyptian man) in the midst of the sons of Israel, and the son of the Israeli woman and a man of Israel strive in the camp,
Basi mwana wa mama Mwisraeli na baba Mmisri alikwenda miongoni mwa Waisraeli, nayo mapigano yakatokea ndani ya kambi kati yake na Mwisraeli.
11 and the son of the Israeli woman execrates the Name and reviles; and they bring him to Moses; and his mother’s name [is] Shelomith daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dan;
Huyu mwana wa mwanamke Mwisraeli akalikufuru Jina la Bwana kwa kulaani; kwa hiyo wakamleta kwa Mose. (Jina la mama yake aliitwa Shelomithi binti wa Dibri, wa kabila la Dani.)
12 and he causes him to rest in confinement —to explain to them by the mouth of YHWH.
Nao wakamweka mahabusu mpaka mapenzi ya Bwana yawe wazi kwao.
13 And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
Ndipo Bwana akamwambia Mose:
14 “Bring out the reviler to the outside of the camp; and all those hearing have laid their hands on his head, and all the congregation has stoned him.
“Mchukue huyo aliyekufuru nje ya kambi. Wale wote waliomsikia akikufuru wataweka mikono juu ya kichwa chake, kisha kusanyiko lote litampiga mawe.
15 And you speak to the sons of Israel, saying, When any man reviles his God—then he has borne his sin;
Waambie Waisraeli: ‘Ikiwa mtu yeyote atamlaani Mungu wake, atakuwa na hatia kwa uovu wake;
16 and he who is execrating the Name of YHWH is certainly put to death; all the congregation certainly casts stones at him; as a sojourner so a native, in his execrating the Name, he is put to death.
yeyote atakayekufuru Jina la Bwana ni lazima auawe. Kusanyiko lote litampiga kwa mawe. Iwe ni mgeni au mzawa, atakapolikufuru Jina la Bwana, ni lazima auawe.
17 And when a man strikes any soul of man, he is certainly put to death.
“‘Kama mtu yeyote atamuua mtu mwingine, ni lazima auawe.
18 And he who strikes a beast repays it, body for body.
Mtu yeyote auaye mnyama wa mtu mwingine lazima afidie, uhai kwa uhai.
19 And when a man puts a blemish in his fellow, as he has done so it is done to him;
Ikiwa mtu yeyote atamjeruhi jirani yake, chochote alichomtenda naye atatendewa:
20 breach for breach, eye for eye, tooth for tooth; as he puts a blemish in a man so it is done in him.
iwapo amemvunja mfupa atavunjwa mfupa, jicho kwa jicho, jino kwa jino. Kama alivyomjeruhi mwenzake, vivyo hivyo ndivyo atakavyojeruhiwa.
21 And he who strikes a beast repays it, and he who strikes [the life of] man is put to death.
Yeyote auaye mnyama wa mtu lazima alipe fidia, lakini yeyote auaye mtu, lazima auawe.
22 One judgment is for you; as a sojourner so is a native; for I [am] your God YHWH.”
Mtakuwa na sheria iyo hiyo kwa mgeni na kwa mzawa. Mimi ndimi Bwana Mungu wenu.’”
23 And Moses speaks to the sons of Israel, and they bring out the reviler to the outside of the camp, and stone him [with] stone; and the sons of Israel have done as YHWH has commanded Moses.
Kisha Mose akasema na Waisraeli, nao wakamchukua yule aliyekufuru nje ya kambi na kumpiga mawe. Waisraeli wakafanya kama Bwana alivyomwagiza Mose.
