Leviticus 5
1 If anyone sins because he does not testify when he has witnessed something about which he is required to testify, whether he has seen it or heard about it, he will be responsible.
“‘Ikiwa mtu atakuwa ametenda dhambi kwa sababu hakusema alipotakiwa kutoa ushahidi hadharani kuhusu jambo aliloona au kujua habari zake, yeye anastahili adhabu.
2 Or if anyone touches anything God has designated as unclean, whether it be the carcass of an unclean wild animal or the carcass of any livestock that has died, or creeping animal, even if the person did not intend to touch it, he is unclean and guilty.
“‘Au kama mtu akigusa kitu chochote ambacho ni najisi, iwe ni mizoga ya wanyama pori walio najisi, au ya wanyama wafugwao walio najisi, au ya viumbe vitambaavyo ardhini, hata akiwa hana habari, amekuwa najisi na mwenye hatia.
3 Or if he touches the uncleanness of someone, whatever that uncleanness is, and if he is unaware of it, then he will be guilty when he learns about it.
“‘Au kama akigusa kitu kilicho kichafu kinachotokana na binadamu, kitu chochote kile kinachoweza kumfanya awe najisi, hata akiwa hana habari, atakapofahamu atakuwa na hatia.
4 Or if anyone swears rashly with his lips to do evil, or to do good, whatever it is that a man swears rashly with an oath, even if he is unaware of it, when he learns about it, then he will be guilty, in any of these things.
“‘Au kama mtu ameapa kufanya kitu chochote bila kufikiri, kiwe chema au kibaya, kwa vyovyote mtu aweza kuapa bila kujali, hata akiwa hana habari, atakapofahamu atakuwa na hatia.
5 When someone is guilty in any of these things, he must confess whatever sin he has committed.
“‘Wakati mtu yeyote atakapokuwa na hatia katika mojawapo ya haya, lazima akiri ni kwa njia gani ametenda dhambi,
6 Then he must bring his guilt offering to Yahweh for the sin that he has committed, a female animal from the flock, either a lamb or a goat, for a sin offering, and the priest will make atonement for him concerning his sin.
na kama adhabu ya dhambi aliyoitenda, lazima alete kwa Bwana kondoo jike au mbuzi jike kutoka kwenye kundi lake kama sadaka ya dhambi; naye kuhani atafanya upatanisho kwa ajili yake kwa dhambi yake.
7 If he cannot afford to buy a lamb, then he can bring as his guilt offering for his sin two doves or two young pigeons to Yahweh, one for a sin offering and the other for a burnt offering.
“‘Lakini huyo mtu kama hataweza kumtoa mwana-kondoo, ataleta hua wawili au makinda mawili ya njiwa kwa Bwana kuwa adhabu kwa ajili ya dhambi yake, mmoja wa hao ndege kwa ajili ya sadaka ya dhambi, na wa pili kwa ajili ya sadaka ya kuteketezwa.
8 He must bring them to the priest, who will offer one for the sin offering first—he will wring off its head from its neck but will not remove it completely from the body.
Atawaleta kwa kuhani, ambaye atamtoa kwanza ndege mmoja kwa ajili ya sadaka ya dhambi. Atamvunja shingo na kuacha kichwa chake kikiningʼinia,
9 Then he will sprinkle some of the blood of the sin offering on the side of the altar, and he will drain the rest of the blood out at the base of the altar. This is a sin offering.
naye atanyunyiza sehemu ya hiyo damu ya sadaka ya dhambi kwenye pembe za madhabahu. Damu iliyobaki lazima ichuruzwe chini ya madhabahu. Hii ni sadaka ya dhambi.
10 Then he must offer the second bird as a burnt offering, as described in the instructions, and the priest will make atonement for him for the sin that he has committed, and the person will be forgiven.
Kisha kuhani atamtoa yule ndege wa pili kama sadaka ya kuteketezwa kwa kufuata utaratibu uliowekwa, na hivyo kufanya upatanisho kwa ajili yake kwa dhambi aliyoitenda, naye atasamehewa.
11 But if he cannot afford to buy two doves or two young pigeons, then he must bring as his sacrifice for his sin a tenth of an ephah of fine flour for a sin offering. He must not put oil or any incense on it, for it is a sin offering.
“‘Ikiwa basi, hawezi kupata hua wawili au makinda mawili ya njiwa, ataleta sehemu ya kumi ya efa ya unga laini kwa ajili ya sadaka ya dhambi. Kamwe asiweke mafuta wala uvumba juu yake, kwa sababu ni sadaka ya dhambi.
12 He must bring it to the priest, and the priest will take a handful of it as a representative offering and then burn it on the altar, on top of the offerings made by fire for Yahweh. This is a sin offering.
Atauleta unga kwa kuhani, ambaye atachukua konzi moja kama sehemu ya kumbukumbu na atauteketeza kwenye madhabahu juu ya sadaka zilizotolewa kwa Bwana kwa moto. Hii ni sadaka ya dhambi.
13 The priest will make atonement for any sin that the person has committed, and that person will be forgiven. The leftovers from the offering will belong to the priest, as with the grain offering.'”
Kwa njia hii kuhani atafanya upatanisho kwa ajili yake kwa dhambi yoyote ya hizo alizotenda, naye atasamehewa. Sadaka iliyobaki itakuwa ya kuhani, kama ilivyokuwa ile sadaka ya nafaka.’”
14 Then Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
Bwana akamwambia Mose:
15 “If anyone sins and acts unfaithfully in regard to the things that belong to Yahweh, but did so unintentionally, then he must bring his guilt offering to Yahweh. This offering must be a ram without blemish from the flock; its value must be appraised in silver shekels—the shekel of the sanctuary—as a guilt offering.
“Mtu anapokiuka na kutenda dhambi pasipo kukusudia kuhusu mojawapo ya mambo matakatifu ya Bwana, huyo mtu ataleta kwa Bwana kama adhabu kondoo dume mmoja kutoka kundi lake, asiye na dosari na mwenye thamani halisi kifedha, kulingana na shekeli ya mahali patakatifu. Hii ni sadaka ya hatia.
16 He must satisfy Yahweh for what he had done wrong in connection with what is holy, and he must add one-fifth to it and give it to the priest. Then the priest will make atonement for him with the ram of the guilt offering, and that person will be forgiven.
Ni lazima alipe kwa yale aliyoshindwa kufanya kuhusu vitu vitakatifu, kwa kuongeza sehemu ya tano ya thamani ile na kuitoa yote kwa kuhani, ambaye atamfanyia upatanisho kwa huyo kondoo dume kama sadaka ya dhambi, naye atasamehewa.
17 If anyone sins and does anything that Yahweh has commanded not to be done, even if he was unaware of it, he is still guilty and must carry his own guilt.
“Kama mtu akifanya dhambi na kufanya yale yaliyokatazwa katika mojawapo ya amri za Bwana, hata ikiwa hajui, yeye ana hatia na anastahili adhabu.
18 He must bring a ram without blemish out of the flock, worth the current value, as a guilt offering to the priest. Then the priest will make atonement for him concerning the sin he has committed, of which he was unaware, and he will be forgiven.
Atamletea kuhani kama sadaka ya hatia kondoo dume kutoka kundi lake, kondoo asiye na dosari na mwenye thamani halisi kifedha. Kwa njia hii kuhani atafanya upatanisho kwa ajili yake kwa kosa alilotenda bila kukusudia, naye atasamehewa.
19 It is a guilt offering, and he is certainly guilty before Yahweh.”
Hii ni sadaka ya hatia; amekuwa na hatia kwa kufanya kosa dhidi ya Bwana.”
