< Leviticus 4 >
1 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis sị,
2 “Tell the people of Israel, 'When anyone sins without wanting to sin, doing any of the things that Yahweh has commanded not to be done, and if he does something that is prohibited, the following must be done.
“Gwa ụmụ Izrel okwu, sị ha, ‘Mgbe onye ọbụla mehiere na-amaghị ama, megide ihe ọbụla Onyenwe anyị nyere nʼiwu:
3 If it is the high priest who sins so as to bring guilt on the people, then let him offer for his sin which he has committed a young bull without blemish to Yahweh as a sin offering.
“‘Ọ bụrụ na onye nchụaja e tere mmanụ emehie na-amaghị ama, si otu a weta ikpe ọmụma nʼisi ọha mmadụ. Ọ ga-ewetara Onyenwe anyị otu oke ehi na-enweghị ntụpọ dịka aja mmehie, nʼihi mmehie ahụ o mere.
4 He must bring the bull to the entrance of the tent of meeting before Yahweh, lay his hand on its head, and kill the bull before Yahweh.
Ọ ga-ewere oke ehi ahụ bịa nʼọnụ ụzọ ụlọ nzute, nʼihu Onyenwe anyị. Ọ ga-ebikwasị aka ya nʼisi ya, gbuo ya nʼebe ahụ nʼihu Onyenwe anyị.
5 The anointed priest will take some of the blood of the bull and take it to the tent of meeting.
Mgbe ahụ, onye nchụaja e tere mmanụ ga-eburu ụfọdụ ọbara oke ehi ahụ baa nʼime ụlọ nzute.
6 The priest will dip his finger into the blood and sprinkle some of it seven times before Yahweh, before the curtain of the most holy place.
Ọ ga-edenye mkpịsịaka ya nʼime ọbara ahụ, fesa ya ugboro asaa nʼihu Onyenwe anyị, nʼihu akwa mgbochi nke ebe nsọ ahụ.
7 Then the priest will put some of the blood on the horns of the altar of fragrant incense before Yahweh, which is in the tent of meeting, and he will pour out all the rest of the blood of the bull at the base of the altar for burnt offerings, which is at the entrance of the tent of meeting.
Onye nchụaja ga-etekwasị ụfọdụ ọbara ahụ na mpi dị nʼebe ịchụ aja nke aja nsure ọkụ ihe na-esi isi ụtọ, nʼihu Onyenwe anyị nʼime ụlọ nzute. Ọbara fọdụrụ nʼoke ehi ahụ ka ọ ga-awụsa nʼụkwụ ebe ịchụ aja nke aja nsure ọkụ ahụ, nʼọnụ ụzọ ịba ụlọ nzute.
8 He will cut away all the fat of the bull of the sin offering; the fat that covers the inner parts, all the fat that is attached to the inner parts,
Ọ ga-ewepụ abụba niile site nʼoke ehi aja mmehie, abụba niile kpuchiri ihe dị nʼime afọ ya na nke jikọtara ha,
9 the two kidneys and the fat that is on them, which is by the loins, and the lobe of the liver, with the kidneys—he will cut away all this.
na akụrụ ya abụọ na abụba kpuchiri ha ruo nʼakụkụ ukwu ya, na ihe kpuchiri umeju ya, nke ọ ga-ewepụ ya na akụrụ ya,
10 He will cut it all away, just as he cuts it off from the bull of the sacrifice of peace offerings. Then the priest will burn these parts on the altar for burnt offerings.
dịka e si ewepụ abụba oke ehi e ji chụọ aja udo. Mgbe ahụ, onye nchụaja ga-akpọ ha ọkụ nʼelu ebe ịchụ aja nke aja nsure ọkụ.
11 The skin of the bull and any remaining meat, with its head and with its legs and its inner parts and its dung,
Ma akpụkpọ anụ oke ehi ahụ na ahụ ya niile, ma isi ya, na ụkwụ ya, na ihe dị nʼime afọ ya, na mgbịrị afọ ya,
12 all the rest of the parts of the bull—he will carry all these parts outside the camp to a place that they have cleansed for me, where they pour out the ashes; they will burn those parts there on wood. They must burn those parts where they pour out the ashes.
ihe niile fọdụrụ nʼoke ehi ahụ, ka a ga-ebupu nʼazụ ebe obibi ụmụ Izrel, ebe dị ọcha, ebe a na-ekpofu ntụ. Ebe ahụ ka a ga-anọ kpọọ ya ọkụ, nʼọkụ a kwanyere nʼebe a na-ekpofu ntụ.
13 If the whole assembly of Israel sins without wanting to sin, and the assembly is unaware that they have sinned and done any of the things which Yahweh has commanded not to be done, and if they are guilty,
“‘Ọ bụrụ na nzukọ Izrel niile emehie na-amaghị ama, mee ihe ọbụla megidere ihe Onyenwe anyị nyere nʼiwu nke a na-adịghị eme eme, ọ bụ ezie na ndị obodo amaghị okwu a, mgbe ha ghọtara ikpe ọmụma ha
14 then, when the sin they have committed becomes known, then the assembly must offer a young bull for a sin offering and bring it before the tent of meeting.
matakwa mmehie ha mehiere, nzukọ ahụ aghaghị iweta nwa oke ehi dịka aja mmehie, duru ya chee ya nʼihu ụlọ nzute.
15 The elders of the assembly will lay their hands on the head of the bull before Yahweh, and the bull will be killed before Yahweh.
Ndị okenye nzukọ Izrel ga-ebikwasị aka ha nʼisi oke ehi ahụ nʼihu Onyenwe anyị. A ga-egbu ehi ahụ nʼihu Onyenwe anyị.
16 The anointed priest will bring some of the blood of the bull to the tent of meeting,
Mgbe ahụ, onye nchụaja e tere mmanụ ga-ewere ụfọdụ nʼime ọbara ya baa nʼụlọ nzute.
17 and the priest will dip his finger in the blood and sprinkle it seven times before Yahweh, before the curtain.
Ọ ga-edenye mkpịsịaka ya nʼime ọbara ahụ fesa ya ugboro asaa nʼihu Onyenwe anyị, nʼihu akwa mgbochi ahụ.
18 He will put some of the blood on the horns of the altar that is before Yahweh, which is in the tent of meeting, and he will pour out all the blood at the base of the altar for burnt offerings, which is at the entrance of the tent of meeting.
Ọ ga-ete ọbara ụfọdụ nʼelu mpi nke dị nʼebe ịchụ aja nke dị nʼihu Onyenwe anyị, nʼụlọ nzute. Ọ ga-awụ ọbara nke fọdụrụ nʼụkwụ ala ala, nʼebe ịchụ aja nke aja nsure ọkụ, nʼọnụ ụzọ ụlọ nzute.
19 He will cut off all the fat from it and burn it on the altar.
Ọ ga-ewepụta abụba niile dị ya nʼahụ kpọọ ha ọkụ nʼelu ebe ịchụ aja.
20 That is what he must do with the bull. Just as he did with the bull of the sin offering, so will he also do with this bull, and the priest will make atonement for the people, and they will be forgiven.
Ọ ga-eme oke ehi ahụ ihe o mere oke ehi aja mmehie. Nʼụzọ dị otu a, onye nchụaja ga-ekpuchi mmehie ndị Izrel. A ga-agbagharakwa ha.
21 He will carry the bull outside the camp and burn it as he burned the first bull. This is the sin offering for the assembly.
Emesịa, onye nchụaja ga-eburu ozu oke ehi ahụ gaa nʼazụ obodo kpọọ ya ọkụ nʼebe ahụ, dịka o mere oke ehi nke mbụ. Nke a bụ aja mmehie nʼihi nzukọ Izrel.
22 When a ruler sins without intending to sin, doing any one of all the things that Yahweh his God has commanded not to be done, and he is guilty,
“‘Mgbe otu nʼime ndịisi obodo mehiere na-amaghị ama, si otu a megide ihe Onyenwe anyị Chineke nyere nʼiwu banyere ihe a na-agaghị eme, mgbe ọ ghọtara ikpe ọmụma ya.
23 then his sin which he has committed is made known to him, he must bring for his sacrifice a goat, a male without blemish.
Ọ bụrụkwa na-eme ka ọ mata mmehie ya, ọ ghaghị iweta mkpi na-enweghị nkwarụ dịka onyinye nʼihi mmehie ya.
24 He will lay his hand on the head of the goat and kill it in the place where they kill the burnt offering before Yahweh. This is a sin offering.
Ọ ga-ebikwasị aka ya nʼisi mkpi ahụ. Gbuo ya nʼebe a na-egbu anụ aja nsure ọkụ, nʼihu Onyenwe anyị. Ọ bụ aja mmehie.
25 The priest will take the blood of the sin offering with his finger and put it on the horns of the altar for burnt offerings, and he will pour out its blood at the base of the altar of burnt offering.
Mgbe ahụ, onye nchụaja ga-arụrụ ụfọdụ nʼime ọbara aja mmehie ahụ na mkpịsịaka ya tee ya nʼelu mpi ebe ịchụ aja nke aja nsure ọkụ. Nke fọdụrụ ka ọ ga-awụpụ nʼụkwụ ala ala ebe ịchụ aja.
26 He will burn all the fat on the altar, just like the fat of the sacrifice of peace offerings. The priest will make atonement for the ruler concerning his sin, and the ruler will be forgiven.
Ọ ga-akpọ abụba ya niile ọkụ nʼebe ịchụ aja dịka o si kpọọ abụba anụ e ji chụọ aja udo ọkụ. Nʼụzọ dị otu a, onye nchụaja ga-ekpuchiri onyeisi ahụ mmehie ya. A ga-agbaghara ya.
27 If anyone of the common people sins without intending to sin, doing any of the things which Yahweh has commanded him not to be done, and when he realizes his guilt,
“‘Ọ bụrụ na otu onye nʼetiti ndị obodo ahụ emehie na-amaghị ama, mee ihe megidere ihe ọbụla Onyenwe anyị nyere nʼiwu nke a na-adịghị eme eme, mgbe ha ghọtara ikpe ọmụma ha,
28 then his sin which he has committed is made known to him, then he will bring a goat for his sacrifice, a female without blemish, for the sin that he has committed.
ọ bụrụkwa na-amata mmehie ha mere, ha ga-eweta nne ewu na-enweghị ntụpọ dịka onyinye nʼihi mmehie ya.
29 He will lay his hand on the head of the sin offering and kill the sin offering at the place of burnt offering.
Ọ ga-ebikwasị aka ya nʼelu isi aja mmehie ahụ, e gbuo ya nʼebe a na-achụ aja nsure ọkụ.
30 The priest will take some of the blood with his finger and put it on the horns of the altar for burnt offerings. He will pour out all the rest of the blood at the base of the altar.
Onye nchụaja ga-ewere ụfọdụ ọbara ahụ na mkpịsịaka ya tee ya na mpi nke ebe ịchụ aja nke aja nsure ọkụ, ọ ga-awụ ọbara fọdụrụ nʼụkwụ ala ala ebe ịchụ aja.
31 He will cut away all the fat, just as the fat is cut away from off the sacrifice of peace offerings. The priest will burn it on the altar to produce a sweet aroma for Yahweh. The priest will make atonement for the man, and he will be forgiven.
Ọ ga-ewepụ abụba ya niile dịka a na-eme nʼaja udo. Onye nchụaja ga-akpọ ha ọkụ nʼebe ịchụ aja, dịka ihe na-esi isi ụtọ nye Onyenwe anyị. Nʼụzọ dị otu a, onye nchụaja a ga-ekpuchikwara ha mmehie. A ga-agbagharakwa ha.
32 If the man brings a lamb as his sacrifice for a sin offering, he will bring a female without blemish.
“‘Ma ọ bụrụ na mmadụ eweta otu atụrụ dịka onyinye nʼihi aja mmehie ya, ọ ghaghị ịbụ nne atụrụ na-enweghị ntụpọ.
33 He will lay his hand on the head of the sin offering and kill it for a sin offering at the place where they kill the burnt offering.
Ọ ga-eweta ya nʼebe a na-egbu anụ aja nsure ọkụ. Ọ ga-ebikwasị ya aka nʼisi, gbuo ya nʼebe ahụ, ka ọ bụrụ aja mmehie ya.
34 The priest will take some of the blood of the sin offering with his finger and put it on the horns of the altar for burnt offerings, and he will pour out all its blood at the base of the altar.
Onye nchụaja ga-ewere ụfọdụ ọbara anụ aja mmehie ahụ na mkpịsịaka ya, tee ya na mpi dị nʼebe ịchụ aja nke aja nsure ọkụ. Ọ ga-awụ ọbara fọdụrụ nʼụkwụ ala ala nke ebe ịchụ aja.
35 He will cut away all the fat, just as the fat of the lamb is cut away from the sacrifice of peace offerings, and the priest will burn it on the altar on top of the offerings of Yahweh made by fire. The priest will make atonement for him for the sin he has committed, and the man will be forgiven.
Ha ga-ewepụ abụba ya niile, dịka a na-eme nʼatụrụ aja udo. Onye nchụaja ga-akpọ abụba ahụ ọkụ nʼelu ebe ịchụ aja dịka onyinye nsure ọkụ a chụrụ nye Onyenwe anyị. Nʼụzọ dị otu a, onye nchụaja ga-ekpuchikwara ha mmehie nʼihi iwu ha dara. A ga-agbaghara ha mmehie ha.
