< Leviticus 9 >
1 Eight days later, Moses/I summoned the elders of Israel.
Nʼụbọchị nke asatọ, Mosis kpọrọ Erọn na ụmụ ya ndị ikom, na ndị okenye Izrel.
2 Then he/I said to Aaron, “Take a young bull for the offering to enable you leaders to be forgiven for the sins you have committed, and a ram to be completely burned [on the altar], both of them without any defects, and offer them to Yahweh.
Ọ gwara Erọn sị, “Site nʼime igwe ehi were nwa oke ehi ị ga-eji chụọ aja mmehie. Werekwa ebule na-enweghị ntụpọ ị ga-eji chụọ aja nsure ọkụ, nke m ga-eche nʼihu Onyenwe anyị.
3 Then say to the Israeli people, ‘Take one male goat for the offering to enable you all to be forgiven for the sins you have committed. Also take a calf and a lamb that have no defects, to be an offering completely burned [on the altar].
Ọ gwakwara ụmụ Izrel sị ha, ‘Họrọnụ mkpi a ga-eji chụọ aja mmehie, na nwa ehi, na nwa atụrụ na-enweghị ntụpọ, ndị gbara naanị otu afọ, a ga-eji chụọ aja nsure ọkụ,
4 Also take an ox and a ram to be an offering to maintain fellowship [with Yahweh], along with an offering of flour mixed with olive oil. Do this because today Yahweh is going to appear to you.’”
na ehi, na ebule a ga-eji chụọ aja udo nʼihu Onyenwe anyị, tinyere mkpụrụ ọka a gwara mmanụ. Nʼihi na taa ka Onyenwe anyị ga-eme ka unu hụ ya anya.’”
5 [After Moses/I told this to the Israeli people, some of them] took the things that Moses/I had commanded them to take, and went to the courtyard in front of the Sacred Tent. Then all the people came near and stood in front of Yahweh.
Ha wetara ihe ndị a niile bịa nʼọnụ ụzọ ụlọ nzute dịka Mosis nyere nʼiwu. Ọgbakọ ụmụ Izrel niile bịara nso guzo nʼihu Onyenwe anyị.
6 Then Moses/I said, “This is what Yahweh has commanded you to do, in order that his glory will appear to you.”
Mgbe ahụ, Mosis sịrị ha, “Ihe ndị a bụ ihe Onyenwe anyị nyere unu nʼiwu idebe, ka ebube ya si otu a pụta ìhè nʼihu unu.”
7 Then Moses/I said to Aaron, “Come to the altar and sacrifice the animal that is your offering to enable you to be forgiven for the sins you have committed, and the animal that will be completely burned there. Because of those offerings, God will forgive you and the people for the sins that you have committed [DOU]. Do those things that Yahweh has commanded.”
Mosis sịrị Erọn, “Bịa nso nʼebe ịchụ aja. Chụọ aja mmehie, na aja nsure ọkụ nke a ga-eji kpuchie mmehie gị na mmehie ndị ahụ niile. Chụọ aja onyinye dịrị ndị ahụ, maka ikpuchiri ha mmehie ha, dịka Onyenwe anyị nyere nʼiwu.”
8 So Aaron came close to the altar and slaughtered the calf to be an offering for his sins.
Erọn bịara nso nʼebe ịchụ aja, gbuo nwa ehi ahụ ka ọ bụrụ aja mmehie nke ya.
9 His sons brought its blood to him [in a bowl]. He dipped his finger into the blood and put some of it on the projections at the corners of the altar. He poured out the rest of the blood at the base of the altar.
Ụmụ Erọn buteere ya ọbara ehi ahụ. O tinyere mkpịsịaka ya nʼime ọbara ahụ tee ya na mpi dị nʼebe ịchụ aja. Ọ wụrụ ọbara fọdụrụ nʼụkwụ ala ala ebe ịchụ aja ahụ.
10 He/I burned the fat, including that which covered the kidneys and the liver, as Yahweh had commanded him/me.
Ọ kpọrọ abụba ya, na akụrụ ya abụọ, na ihe kpuchiri umeju si nʼaja mmehie ahụ ọkụ nʼebe ịchụ aja dịka Onyenwe anyị nyere Mosis iwu.
11 Then Aaron burned [the rest of] the meat and the hide/skin outside the camp.
Ma anụ ahụ ya, na akpụkpọ ya, ka ọ kpọrọ ọkụ nʼazụ ebe obibi.
12 Then Aaron slaughtered the animal that would be completely burned [on the altar]. His sons handed him [the bowl containing] its blood, and he sprinkled the blood on all sides of the altar.
Emesịa, o gburu anụ e wetara maka aja nsure ọkụ ahụ. Ụmụ ya ndị ikom nyere ya ọbara anụ ahụ, nke o fesara gburugburu ebe ịchụ aja.
13 Then they handed him the head and the pieces of the animal that would be burned, and he burned them on the altar.
Ha nyefere ya aja nsure ọkụ ahụ nʼaka nʼotu ha sị bọọ ya, tinyere isi ya. Ọ kpọrọ ihe niile ọkụ nʼebe ịchụ aja.
14 He washed the inner parts and the legs of the animal, and burned them on the altar, on top of the other pieces of the animal.
Ọ sachara ihe dị nʼime afọ ya, na ụkwụ ya, kpọọ ha ọkụ, dịka aja nsure ọkụ.
15 Then Aaron brought the animals that would be sacrifices for the Israeli people. He took the goat and slaughtered it to be an offering to enable them to be forgiven for the sins they had committed, like he had done with the goat for his own offering.
Emesịa, Erọn wetara onyinye nke dị maka ndị mmadụ, o were ewu ahụ bụ maka mmehie ndị mmadụ, gbuo ya, were chụọ aja mmehie, dịka o mere nke mbụ.
16 Then he brought the animal for the offering to be completely burned. He slaughtered it and offered it in the way that Yahweh had commanded him to do.
Ọ chụkwara aja nsure ọkụ nʼusoro dịka iwu e nyere si dị.
17 He also brought the offering of grain. He took a handful of it and burned it on the altar, like he had done for the animal that he had slaughtered and completely burned [on the altar] in the morning.
O webatakwara aja mkpụrụ ọka ahụ, kporo nke juru ya aka, kpọọ ya ọkụ nʼelu ebe ịchụ aja, tinyekwara aja nsure ọkụ nke ụtụtụ ahụ.
18 Then he slaughtered the ox and the ram, to be an offering for the Israeli people to maintain fellowship with Yahweh. His sons handed him [the bowl containing] the blood, and he sprinkled the blood against all sides of the altar.
Nʼikpeazụ, o gburu ehi na ebule ahụ, nke bụ aja udo ndị Izrel. Ụmụ Erọn buteere ya ọbara nke o fesara gburugburu ebe ịchụ aja.
19 But he took the fat from the ox and the ram, including their fat tails that were cut close to the backbone, and all the fat that covered the livers and the kidneys.
Ọ chịkọtara abụba niile dị ehi na ebule ndị ahụ nʼahụ, na ọdụdụ ha, na abụba kpuchiri ihe ime ha, ya na akụrụ ha, na abụba kpuchiri umeju ha,
20 He put them on top of the breasts of those animals and carried them to the altar to be burned.
tụkwasị ha nʼobi anụ ndị ahụ, kpọọ ha ọkụ nʼebe ịchụ aja.
21 Then, doing what Moses/I had commanded, he lifted up in front of Yahweh the breast and the right thigh of those animals, to signify that those two animals completely belonged to Yahweh.
Mgbe ahụ, Erọn fufere, dịka onyinye mfufe, obi anụ ahụ, na apata aka nri ha nʼihu Onyenwe anyị dịka Mosis nyere nʼiwu.
22 Then Aaron lifted his arms toward the people and [asked Yahweh to] bless them. Then having finished making all those offerings, he stepped down [from the place where the altar was].
Erọn weliri aka ya elu nʼebe ụmụ Izrel nọ, gọzie ha. Emesịa, mgbe ọ chụchara aja mmehie, na aja nsure ọkụ na aja udo, o sitere nʼebe ịchụ aja ahụ rịdata.
23 Then Aaron and Moses/I entered the Sacred Tent. When they/we later came out, they/we [asked Yahweh to] bless the people. And suddenly the glory/brightness of Yahweh appeared to all the people.
Mosis na Erọn bara nʼime ụlọ nzute. Mgbe ha pụtara, ha gọziri ọha mmadụ ahụ. Mgbe ahụ kwa, ebube Onyenwe anyị pụtara ìhè nye mmadụ niile nʼọgbakọ ahụ.
24 A fire from Yahweh appeared and burned up the offering that was to be completely burned and the fat that was on the altar. And when all the people saw that, they shouted joyfully and prostrated themselves on the ground [to worship Yahweh].
Ọkụ sitekwara nʼebe Onyenwe anyị nọ daa, rechapụ aja nsure ọkụ ahụ, na abụba ahụ dị nʼebe ịchụ aja. Mgbe ndị Izrel hụrụ ya, ha tiri mkpu ọṅụ. Daa, kpuo ihu nʼala.
