Leviticus 4
1 Then Yahweh said to Moses/me,
Bwana alisema na Musa na kumwambi,
2 “Say this to the Israeli people: This is what must be done if someone sins without intending to sin, doing something that is forbidden in any of Yahweh’s commands.
“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 Supreme [MTY] Priest sins, and that causes all the people to be guilty, he must bring to Yahweh a young bull that has no defects. That will be an offering for the sin that he has committed.
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 He must bring the bull to the entrance to the Sacred Tent. He must lay his hands on its head. Then he must slaughter it in front of Yahweh [and drain some of the blood into a bowl].
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 Then the Supreme Priest must take some of that blood into the Sacred Tent.
Kuhani aliyewekewa mafuta atachukua damu ya dume na kuileta mbele ya hema ya kukutania.
6 He must dip [one of] his fingers into the blood and sprinkle it seven times in the presence of Yahweh, in front of the curtain [that separates the Holy Place from the Very Holy Place].
Kuhani atazamisha kidole chake katika damu na kuinyunyiza mara saba mbele za Bwana, mbele ya pazia la mahali pa takatifu.
7 Then he must put some of the blood on the projections at the corners of the altar where fragrant incense is burned in the Sacred Tent in the presence of Yahweh. The remaining part of the bull’s blood [that is still in the bowl], he must pour out at the base of the altar, where sacrifices are burned, at the entrance to the Sacred Tent.
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 From that offering the Supreme Priest must separate these things from the bull that is to be burned: The fat that covers the inner parts of the bull or which is attached to them—
Atakata mafuta yote ya dume wa sadaka ya dhambi, mafuta yanayofunika matumbo na mafuta yote yaliyo katika matumbo,
9 the kidneys and the fat that is attached to them near the lower back muscle, and the fat that covers the liver.
figo mbili na mafuta yaliyopo pamoja nazo, yaliyo karibu na kiuno na kitambi cha maini pamoja na hizo figo.
10 Then the Supreme Priest must completely burn those things on the altar. That will be just like when the fat is removed from an animal that is sacrificed to maintain good fellowship [with Yahweh].
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 But all the other parts of the animal—its skin/hide and all its other meat, its head and its legs, its inner parts and the intestines,
Ngozi ya dume na mabaki yoyote ya nyama, pamoja na kichwa chake, miguu yake, matumbo yake na mavi yake,
12 he must take outside the camp and throw them in a place that is acceptable to Yahweh, where the ashes are thrown, and he must burn them in a fire on the pile of ashes.
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 ‘If all the Israeli people sin without intending to sin, doing something that is forbidden in any of Yahweh’s commands, they will be guilty, even if they do not realize that they have sinned.
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 they realize that they have committed a sin, together they must bring a young bull to be an offering for their sin, to the front of the Sacred Tent.
Na dhambi waliyofanya ikajulikana, mkutano watatoa ng'ombe dume mchanga kuwa sadaka ya dhambi watamleta mbele ya hema ya kukutania.
15 The elders must lay their hands on the bull’s head in the presence of Yahweh and slaughter it [and catch some of the blood in a bowl].
Wazee wa mkutano wataweka mikono yao juu ya kichwa cha ng'ombe mbele za Bwana, na ng'ombe atachinjwa mbele za Bwana.
16 Then the Supreme [MTY] Priest must take some of that blood into the Sacred Tent.
Kuhani aliyetiwa mafuta ataleta damu ya ng'ombe katika hema ya kukutania,
17 ‘He must dip [one of] his fingers into the blood and sprinkle it seven times in the presence of Yahweh, in front of the curtain [that separates the Holy Place from the Very Holy Place].
kuhani atachovya kidole chake katika damu na kuinyunyizia mara saba mbele za Bwana mbele ya pazia.
18 Then he must put some of the blood on the projections at the corners of the altar that is in the presence of Yahweh in the Sacred Tent. The remaining part of the bull’s blood, he must pour out at the base of the altar where sacrifices are burned, at the entrance of the Sacred Tent.
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 He must remove all the animal’s fat and burn it on the altar.
Atakata mafuta yote na kuyatekeza katika madhabahu.
20 He must do with this bull the same things that he did with the bull that was an offering for his own sins, and they will be forgiven {Yahweh will forgive 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 Then the priest must take [the other parts of] the bull outside the camp and burn them, like he does when he himself has sinned. That will be the offering for the sin that all the people have committed, and they will be forgiven.
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 one of the leaders sins without intending to sin, doing something that is forbidden in any of the commands of Yahweh his God, he will be guilty.
Mtawala akitenda dhambi bila kukusudia kufanya moja ya yale Bwana Mungu wake ameagiza kutotenda, na anajisikia hatia
23 When he realizes that he has committed a sin, he must bring as his offering a male goat that has no defects.
na kama dhambi yake aliyotenda anaifahamu, ataleta dhabihu yake mbuzi mme asiye na kasoro.
24 He must lay his hands on the goat’s head in the presence of Yahweh and slaughter it at the place where they slaughter {are slaughtered} the animals that will be completely burned [on the altar]. That will be an offering for his sin.
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 Then the priest must put some of the animal’s blood [into a bowl] and dip [one of] his fingers in it and put some of the blood on the corners of the projections of the altar. Then he must pour out the rest of the blood at the base of the altar.
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 Then he must burn all the fat on the altar, as was done with the fat of the offering to maintain good fellowship [with Yahweh]. As a result of the priest’s doing that, the leader will no longer be guilty for his sin and he will be forgiven.
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 ‘If one of the Israeli people who is not a priest sins without intending to sin, and does something that is forbidden in any of the commands of Yahweh his God, he will be guilty.
Kama yeyote wa watu wa kawaida akitenda dhambi bila kukusudia, kufanya vitu ambavyo Bwana ameagiza kutokufanywa na kama ana hatia,
28 When he realizes that he has committed a sin, he must bring as his offering a female goat that has no defects.
ndipo dhambi yake aliyoitenda ikajulikana kwake, ndipo ataleta mbuzi mke asiyekuwa na kasoro awe dhabihu kwa ajili ya dhambi zake alizotenda.
29 He must lay his hands on the goat’s head and slaughter it at the place where they slaughter the animals that will be completely burned [on the altar, and catch some of the blood in a bowl].
Ataweka mikono yake juu ya sadaka ya dhambi na kuchinja sadaka ya dhambi mahali pa sadaka ya kuteketezwa.
30 Then the priest must dip [one of] his fingers in the blood, and put some of it on the projections at the corners of the altar. Then he must pour out the rest of the blood at the base 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 Then he must remove all the goat’s fat, and burn all the fat on the altar, like was done with the fat of the offering to maintain fellowship [with Yahweh]. And the aroma while it burns will be pleasing to Yahweh. As a result of the priest doing that, the person will no longer be guilty for his sin, and he will be forgiven.
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 ‘If that person brings a lamb to be his offering for sin, he must bring a female lamb that has no defects.
Kama mtu ataleta mwanakondoo kama dhabihu yake kwa sadaka ya dhambi, ataleta jike asiye na kasoro.
33 He must lay his hands on the lamb’s head and slaughter it at the place where they slaughter the animals that will be completely burned [on the altar, and catch some of the blood in a bowl].
Ataweka mikono kichwani mwa sadaka ya dhambi na atamchinja kuwa sadaka ya dhambi mahali wanapochinjwa sadaka ya kuteketezwa.
34 Then the priest must dip [one of] his fingers in the blood and put some of it on the projections at the corners of the altar. Then he must pour out the rest of the blood at the base 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 Then he must remove all the lamb’s fat, and burn all the fat on the altar, like was done with the fat of the offering to maintain fellowship [with Yahweh]. He must burn it on top of the other offerings to Yahweh that are being burned. As a result, the priest will request God to forgive that person for his sin, and he will be forgiven.’”
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.
