Leviticus 11
1 And the LORD spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying to them.
INkosi yasikhuluma kuMozisi lakuAroni isithi kibo:
2 Speak to the children of Israel, saying, These [are] the beasts which ye may eat among all the beasts that [are] on the earth.
Tshonini ebantwaneni bakoIsrayeli lithi: Lezi zinyamazana elingazidla kuzo zonke inyamazana ezisemhlabeni.
3 Whatever parteth the hoof, and is cloven-footed, [and] cheweth the cud among the beasts, that shall ye eat.
Konke okwehlukanisa isondo lokwehlukanisa isondo kabili lokwetshisayo phakathi kwenyamazana, lokhu lizakudla.
4 Nevertheless, these shall ye not eat, of them that chew the cud, or of them that divide the hoof: the camel, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he [is] unclean to you.
Kodwa lezi kaliyikuzidla kulezo ezetshisayo kumbe kulezo ezehlukanisa isondo: Ikamela, ngoba liyetshisa, kodwa kalehlukanisi amasondo; lingcolile kini.
5 And the coney, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he [is] unclean to you.
Lembila, ngoba iyetshisa, kodwa kayehlukanisi isondo; ingcolile kini.
6 And the hare, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof: he [is] unclean to you.
Lomvundla, ngoba uyetshisa, kodwa kawehlukanisi isondo; ungcolile kini.
7 And the swine, though he divideth the hoof, and [is] cloven-footed, yet he cheweth not the cud; he [is] unclean to you.
Lengulube, ngoba iyehlukanisa isondo lokwehlukanisa isondo kube kubili kodwa kayetshisi; ingcolile kini.
8 Of their flesh shall ye not eat, and their carcass shall ye not touch; they [are] unclean to you.
Lingadli okwenyama yazo, lingathinti isidumbu sazo; zingcolile kini.
9 These shall ye eat, of all that [are] in the waters: whatever hath fins and scales in the waters, in the seas, and in the rivers, them shall ye eat.
Lezi lingazidla kuzo zonke ezisemanzini: Zonke ezilempiko lamaxolo, emanzini, enlwandle lemifuleni, lezo lingazidla.
10 And all that have not fins nor scales in the seas, and in the rivers, of all that move in the waters, and of any living animal which [is] in the waters, they [shall be] an abomination to you:
Kodwa zonke ezingelampiko lamaxolo enlwandle lemifuleni, phakathi kwazo zonke ezibhinqika emanzini laphakathi kwaso sonke isidalwa esiphilayo esisemanzini, ziyisinengiso kini.
11 They shall be even an abomination to you; ye shall not eat of their flesh, but ye shall have their carcasses in abomination.
Yebo, zizakuba yisinengiso kini; lingadli okwenyama yazo; kodwa lizanengwa yisidumbu sazo.
12 Whatever hath no fins nor scales in the waters, that [shall be] an abomination to you.
Konke okungelampiko lamaxolo emanzini, kuyisinengiso kini.
13 And these [are they which] ye shall have in abomination among the fowls; they shall not be eaten, they [are] an abomination: the eagle, and the ossifrage, and the ospray,
Lezi-ke lizanengwa yizo phakathi kwezinyoni; kaziyikudliwa, ziyisinengiso; ukhozi lelinqe lengqungqulu edla inhlanzi,
14 And the vultur, and the kite after his kind;
lomzwazwa, lohelwane ngohlobo lwalo,
15 Every raven after his kind;
lonke iwabayi ngohlobo lwalo,
16 And the owl, and the night-hawk, and the cuckow, and the hawk after his kind,
lesikhova, lomandukulo, lenkanku, lokhozi ngohlobo lwalo,
17 And the little owl, and the cormorant, and the great owl,
lesikhova esincinyane, letshayamanzi, lesikhova esikhulu,
18 And the swan, and the pelican, and the gier-eagle,
lesikhova esimhlophe, lewunkwe, lelinqe elikhulu,
19 And the stork, and the heron after her kind, and the lapwing, and the bat.
lengabuzane, ihemu ngohlobo lwalo, lemvenduna, lolulwane.
20 All fowls that creep, going upon [all] four, [shall be] an abomination to you.
Zonke izibungu ezilempiko ezihamba ngezine ziyisinengiso kini.
21 Yet these may ye eat, of every flying creeping animal that goeth upon [all] four, which have legs above their feet, to leap with upon the earth;
Kodwa lezi lizazidla ezibungwini ezilempiko ezihamba ngezine ezilemilenze ephezu kwenyawo zazo ezeqa ngayo emhlabeni;
22 [Even] these of them ye may eat; the locust after its kind, and the bald locust after its kind, and the beetle after its kind, and the grasshopper after its kind.
lezi lingadla kuzo: Isikhonyane ngohlobo lwaso, lonyelele ngohlobo lwakhe, lediye ngohlobo lwalo, lentethe ngohlobo lwayo.
23 But all [other] flying creeping animals, which have four feet, [shall be] an abomination to you.
Kodwa zonke izibungu ezilempiko, ezilenyawo ezine, ziyisinengiso kini.
24 And for these ye shall be unclean: whoever toucheth the carcass of them shall be unclean until the evening.
Langalezi lizangcoliswa; wonke othinta isidumbu sazo uzakuba ngongcolileyo kuze kuhlwe.
25 And whoever beareth [aught] of the carcass of them shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening.
Njalo wonke ophakamisa okwesidumbu sazo uzahlamba izembatho zakhe, abe ngongcolileyo kuze kuhlwe.
26 [The carcasses] of every beast which divideth the hoof, and [is] not cloven-footed, nor cheweth the cud, [are] unclean to you: every one that toucheth them shall be unclean.
Yonke inyamazana eyehlukanisa isondo, kodwa ingehlukanisi isondo kabili, njalo ingetshisi, ingcolile kini; wonke oyithintayo uzangcola.
27 And whatever goeth upon its paws, among all manner of beasts that go on [all] four, those [are] unclean to you: whoever toucheth their carcass shall be unclean until the evening.
Konke-ke okuhamba ngezidladla zakho, phakathi kwazo zonke inyamazana ezihamba ngezine, zingcolile kini; wonke othinta isidumbu sazo uzangcola kuze kuhlwe.
28 And he that beareth the carcass of them shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening: they [are] unclean to you.
Lothwala isidumbu sazo uzahlamba izembatho zakhe, abe ngongcolileyo kuze kuhlwe; zingcolile kini.
29 These also [shall be] unclean to you among the creeping animals that creep upon the earth; the weasel, and the mouse, and the tortoise, after its kind,
Futhi lezi zizakuba ngezingcolileyo kini, phakathi kwezihuquzelayo ezihuquzelayo emhlabeni; ubuchakide, legundwane, legwababa ngohlobo lwalo,
30 And the ferret and the chameleon, and the lizard, and the snail, and the mole.
lontulo, lembulumakhasana, lombankwa, lesiqhuza, lonwabu.
31 These [are] unclean to you among all that creep: whoever doth touch them, when they are dead, shall be unclean until the evening.
Lezi zingcolile kini phakathi kwazo zonke ezihuquzelayo; wonke ozithintayo sezifile uzakuba ngongcolileyo kuze kuhlwe.
32 And upon whatever [any] of them, when they are dead, doth fall, it shall be unclean; whether [it is] any vessel of wood, or raiment, or skin, or sack, whatever vessel [it is], in which [any] work is done, it must be put into water, and it shall be unclean until the evening; so it shall be cleansed.
Konke-ke ewela phezu kwakho enye yazo isifile kuzakuba ngokungcolileyo, lokwasiphi isitsha sesihlahla, loba isembatho, loba isikhumba, loba isaka, lasiphi isitsha okusetshenzwa ngaso; kuzafakwa emanzini, njalo kuzakuba ngokungcolileyo kuze kuhlwe; khona kuzahlambuluka.
33 And every earthen vessel, into which [any] of them falleth, whatever [is] in it shall be unclean; and ye shall break it.
Layo yonke imbiza yebumba ewela phakathi kwayo enye yazo, konke okukiyo kuzakuba ngokungcolileyo, njalo lizayibulala.
34 Of all meat which may be eaten, [that] on which [such] water cometh shall be unclean: and all drink that may be drank in every [such] vessel, shall be unclean.
Ekudleni konke okudliwayo afike kukho amanzi kuzakuba ngokungcolileyo; lakuphi okunathwayo okunganathwa phakathi kwaloba yiyiphi imbiza enjalo kuzakuba ngokungcolileyo.
35 And every [thing] on which [any part] of their carcass falleth, shall be unclean; [whether] an oven, or ranges for pots, they shall be broken down: [for] they [are] unclean, and shall be unclean to you.
Konke-ke okuwela kukho okwesidumbu sazo kuzakuba ngokungcolileyo; iziko loba isitofu, kuzaphohlozwa, kungcolile, futhi kuzakuba ngokungcolileyo kini.
36 Nevertheless, a fountain or pit, [in which there is] plenty of water, shall be clean: but that which toucheth their carcass shall be unclean.
Kodwa umthombo loba umgodi aqoqene khona amanzi uzakuba ngohlambulukileyo; kodwa okuthinta izidumbu zazo kuzakuba ngokungcolileyo.
37 And if [any part] of their carcass shall fall upon any sowing-seed which is to be sown, it [shall be] clean.
Njalo uba okwesidumbu sazo kuwela phezu kwenhlanyelo ehlanyelwayo ezahlanyelwa, ihlambulukile;
38 But if [any] water shall be put upon the seed, and [any part] of their carcass shall fall on it, it [shall be] unclean to you.
kodwa uba okwamanzi kufakwa enhlanyelweni, lokwesidumbu sazo kuwela phezu kwayo, ingcolile kini.
39 And if any beast, of which ye may eat, shall die; he that toucheth its carcass shall be unclean until the evening.
Uba kusifa-ke enyamazaneni eyikudla kini, othinta isidumbu sayo uzakuba ngongcolileyo kuze kuhlwe.
40 And he that eateth of its carcass shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening; he also that beareth its carcass shall wash his clothes and be unclean until the evening.
Lodla okwesidumbu sayo uzahlamba izembatho zakhe, abe ngongcolileyo kuze kuhlwe; lothwala isidumbu sayo uzawatsha izembatho zakhe, abe ngongcolileyo kuze kuhlwe.
41 And every creeping animal that creepeth upon the earth [shall be] an abomination; it shall not be eaten.
Lazo zonke ezihuquzelayo ezihuquzela emhlabeni ziyisinengiso; kaziyikudliwa.
42 Whatever goeth upon the belly, and whatever goeth upon [all] four, or whatever hath more feet among all creeping animals that creep upon the earth, them ye shall not eat; for they [are] an abomination.
Konke okuhamba ngesisu, lakho konke okuhamba ngezine, kuze kube yikho konke okulenyawo ezinengi, phakathi kwazo zonke ezihuquzelayo ezihuquzela emhlabeni kaliyikukudla, ngoba kuyisinengiso.
43 Ye shall not make your selves abominable with any creeping animal that creepeth, neither shall ye make yourselves unclean with them, that ye should be defiled by them.
Lingazenzi linengeke langakuphi okuhuquzelayo kuhuquzela, lingazingcolisi ngakho ukuthi lingcoliswe yikho.
44 For I [am] the LORD your God: ye shall therefore sanctify yourselves, and ye shall be holy; for I [am] holy: neither shall ye defile yourselves with any manner of creeping animal that creepeth upon the earth.
Ngoba ngiyiNkosi uNkulunkulu wenu. Ngakho zingcweliseni, libe ngcwele, ngoba ngingcwele. Lingazingcolisi langakuphi okuhuquzelayo okuhuquzela emhlabeni.
45 For I [am] the LORD that bringeth you out of the land of Egypt, to be your God: ye shall therefore be holy, for I [am] holy.
Ngoba ngiyiNkosi eyalenyusa lisuka elizweni leGibhithe ukuthi ngibe nguNkulunkulu wenu. Ngakho banini ngcwele, ngoba ngingcwele.
46 This [is] the law of the beasts, and of the fowl, and of every living creature that moveth in the waters, and of every creature that creepeth upon the earth;
Lo ngumlayo wezinyamazana lezinyoni, laso sonke isidalwa esiphilayo esibhinqika emanzini lakuso sonke isidalwa esihuquzela emhlabeni,
47 To make a difference between the unclean and the clean, and between the beast that may be eaten and the beast that may not be eaten.
ukwehlukanisa phakathi kokungcolileyo lokuhlambulukileyo, laphakathi kokuphilayo okungadliwa lokuphilayo okungadliwayo.
