< Leviticus 5 >

1 [Yahweh also said to tell the people], “If [a judge] orders any of you to tell [in court] something that you have seen or something that you heard someone say, if you refuse to say what you know is true, you must (pay a penalty/be punished) [MTY] for refusing to tell what you know.
“‘Kana munhu akatadza nokuti aramba kupa uchapupu iye achinzi ape uchapupu pamusoro pezvaakaona kana zvaakanzwa, achava nemhosva.
2 If you accidentally touch something which God considers impure [DOU], such as the carcass of a wild animal or the carcass of a bull or cow, or of an animal that scurries across the ground, you must (pay a penalty/be punished).
“‘Kana kuti munhu akabata zvinhu zvipi zvazvo zvisina kuchena, zvingava zvitunha zvemhuka dzesango dzisina kuchena, kana mombe isina kuchena, kana zvipuka zvisina kuchena zvinofamba pavhu, kunyange asingazvizivi, atova asina kuchena uye ane mhosva.
3 If you touch any human feces, even if you do not intend to do that, when you realize what you have done, you must (pay a penalty/be punished).
“‘Kana kuti akabata zvisakachena zvavanhu, chinhu chipi zvacho chinoita kuti asava akachena, kunyange asingazvizivi, paanozozviziva, achava nemhosva.
4 If you carelessly make a solemn promise [to do something] that is good or that is bad, when you realize what you have done, you must (pay a penalty/be punished).
“‘Kana kuti munhu asina kunyatsofungisisa akaita mhiko yokuti achaita chimwe chinhu, chingava chakanaka kana chakaipa, panyaya ipi zvayo, munhu yaanenge apika pamusoro payo asina kufungisisa, kunyange zvazvo asingazvizivi, paanozozviziva achava nemhosva.
5 If you are guilty of committing any of those sins, you must confess what you have done.
“‘Kana munhu akava nemhosva pane chimwe chaizvozvi anofanira kureurura nzira yaakatadza nayo
6 And for a penalty you must bring to Yahweh a female lamb or female goat, to be an offering for the sin that you have committed, and the priest will sacrifice it, and then you will no longer be guilty for your sin.
uye somuripo wechivi chaakaita, anofanira kuuya kuna Jehovha negwayana sheshe kana mbudzana sechipiriso chechivi uye muprista achamuyananisira chivi chake.
7 If you [are poor and] cannot afford to bring a lamb, you must bring to Yahweh two doves or two young pigeons. One will be an offering for your sin and one will be an offering that will be completely burned [on the altar].
“‘Kana asingakwanisi kuuya negwayana anofanira kuuya nenjiva mbiri kana hangaiwa diki mbiri kuna Jehovha somuripo wechivi chake, imwe somuripo wechivi, imwe sechipiriso chinopiswa.
8 You must bring them to the priest. First he will offer one of them to be an offering for your sin. He will wring/twist its neck [to kill it], but he must not pull off its head completely.
Anofanira kudziuyisa kumuprista uyo achatanga kupa imwe yacho sechipiriso chechivi. Anofanira kumonyorora mutsipa wayo asingabvisi musoro zvachose.
9 Then he must sprinkle some of the blood against the side of the altar. The remaining blood must be drained out at the base of the altar. That will be an offering for your sin.
Achasasa rimwe ropa rechipiriso chezvivi kumativi earitari, rimwe ropa rose rinofanira kudururwa mujinga mearitari. Ichi chipiriso chechivi.
10 The priest will then do what I have commanded and offer the other bird to be completely burned [on the altar]. Then you will no longer be guilty for the sin you have committed, and Yahweh will forgive you.
Ipapo muprista achapa chimwe chacho sechipiriso chinopiswa nenzira yakatarwa agomuyananisira pachivi chaakaita, uye acharegererwa.
11 However, if you [are very poor and] cannot afford two doves or two young pigeons, you must bring to be an offering for your sin (2 pounds/1 kg.) of fine flour. You must not put olive oil or incense on it, because it is an offering for sin.
“‘Asi, kana asingakwanisi kuuya nenjiva mbiri kana hangaiwa diki mbiri, anofanira kuuya nechipiriso chezvivi zvake chiri chegumi cheefa youpfu hwakatsetseka sechipiriso chezvivi. Haafaniri kuisa mafuta kana zvinonhuhwira pazviri nokuti chipiriso chechivi.
12 You must take it to the priest. He will take a handful of it, to symbolize that the whole offering truly belongs to Yahweh, and burn it on the altar, on top of the other offerings.
Anofanira kuzviuyisa kumuprista uyo achatora tsama sechikamu chechirangaridzo agozvipisa paaritari pamusoro pezvipiriso zvinoitirwa Jehovha nomoto. Ichi chipiriso chezvivi.
13 And by doing that, the priest will enable you to no longer be guilty for any of the sins that you have committed, and you will be forgiven. The part of the offering that is not burned will belong to the priest, like was true for the offerings made from grain.”
Nenzira iyi muprista achamuyananisira pazvivi zvose zvaakaita uye acharegererwa. Zvimwe zvose zvezvipiriso zvinosara zvichava zvomuprista, sezvinoitwa nezvipiriso zvezviyo.’”
14 Yahweh also said to Moses/me,
Ipapo Jehovha akati kuna Mozisi:
15 “When you sin, without intending to, by not giving to Yahweh the things that you are required to give to him, you must pay a penalty by bringing to Yahweh a ram that has no defects. You must determine how much silver it is worth, by using the official standard in the temple. It will be an offering to cause you to no longer be guilty.
“Kana munhu akakanganisa chimwe chinhu uye akatadza nokusaziva maererano nezvinhu zvose zvitsvene zvaJehovha, anofanira kuuya kuna Jehovha nomuripo wegondobwe risina kuremara, uye rine muripo unokwanirana nesirivha, maererano neshekeri repanzvimbo tsvene. Ichi chipiriso chezvivi.
16 But you must also make restitution for what you failed to give to Yahweh, adding one-fifth of its value. You must give that to the priest. He will offer the ram as a sacrifice for the sin that you have committed, and cause you to no longer be guilty; and you will be forgiven.
Anofanira kuripira zvaakatadza kuita maererano nezvinhu zvitsvene, agowedzera chikamu chimwe chete kubva muzvishanu agopa zvose kumuprista, achamuyananisira negondobwe sechipiriso chemhosva, uye acharegererwa.
17 If you sin by doing something that is forbidden by any of Yahweh’s commands, even if you do not know that you have disobeyed one of my commands, you are guilty and must pay a penalty [to me].
“Kana munhu akatadza uye akaita zvisingabvumirwi pamirayiro ipi zvayo yaJehovha, kunyange asingazvizivi, ane mhosva uye achava nemhaka.
18 [When you realize what you have done], you must bring a ram to the Supreme Priest to be an offering in order that you will no longer be guilty. You must bring one that has no defects. He will offer the ram to be a sacrifice to me, and as a result you will no longer be guilty for the sin that you have committed, and you will be forgiven.
Anofanira kuuya kumuprista nechipiriso chemhosva gondobwe risina kuremara uye rine muripo wakafanira. Nenzira iyi muprista achamuyananisira pakukanganisa kwaakaita nokusaziva, uye acharegererwa.
19 It is an offering to cause you to no longer be guilty for sinning against me.”
Ichi chipiriso chezvivi, akabatwa nemhosva yaakapara kuna Jehovha.”
