Leviticus 1
1 And Jehovah calleth unto Moses, and speaketh unto him out of the tent of meeting, saying,
Yehova anayitana Mose mu tenti ya msonkhano. Iye anati,
2 'Speak unto the sons of Israel, and thou hast said unto them, Any man of you when he doth bring near an offering to Jehovah, out of the cattle — out of the herd, or out of the flock — ye do bring near your offering.
“Aliyense wa inu ngati abwera ndi nsembe kwa Yehova kuchokera pa ziweto zake, choperekacho chikhale ngʼombe, nkhosa kapena mbuzi.
3 'If his offering [is] a burnt-offering out of the herd — a male, a perfect one, he doth bring near, unto the opening of the tent of meeting he doth bring it near, at his pleasure, before Jehovah;
“‘Ngati munthu apereka nsembe yopsereza ya ngʼombe, ikhale yayimuna yopanda chilema. Aziyipereka pa khomo la tenti ya msonkhano, kuti Yehova alandire.
4 and he hath laid his hand on the head of the burnt-offering, and it hath been accepted for him to make atonement for him;
Munthuyo asanjike dzanja lake pa mutu pa nsembe yopserezayo, ndipo idzalandiridwa kuti ikhale yopepesera machimo ake.
5 and he hath slaughtered the son of the herd before Jehovah; and sons of Aaron, the priests, have brought the blood near, and sprinkled the blood on the altar round about, which [is] at the opening of the tent of meeting.
Pambuyo pake aphe ngʼombeyo pamaso pa Yehova, ndipo ansembe, ana a Aaroni, atenge magazi ake ndi kuwawaza mbali zonse za guwa lansembe limene lili pa khomo la tenti ya msonkhano.
6 'And he hath stripped the burnt-offering, and hath cut it into its pieces;
Munthuyo asende nsembe yopserezayo ndi kuyidula nthulinthuli.
7 and the sons of Aaron the priest have put fire on the altar, and arranged wood on the fire;
Ndipo ana a Aaroni, wansembe uja asonkhe moto pa guwa ndi kuyalapo nkhuni pa motopo.
8 and sons of Aaron, the priests, have arranged the pieces, with the head and the fat, on the wood, which [is] on the fire, which [is] on the altar;
Kenaka ana a Aaroni, wansembe uja, ayike nthuli za nyamayo, mutu wake pamodzi ndi mafuta omwe pa nkhuni zimene zili paguwapo.
9 and its inwards and its legs he doth wash with water; and the priest hath made perfume with the whole on the altar, a burnt-offering, a fire-offering of sweet fragrance to Jehovah.
Munthuyo atsuke zamʼkati mwa nyamayo pamodzi ndi miyendo yake yomwe, ndipo wansembe awotche nyama yonse paguwapo. Iyi ndi nsembe yopsereza, chopereka chowotcha pa moto, cha fungo lokomera Yehova.
10 'And if his offering [is] out of the flock — out of the sheep or out of the goats — for a burnt-offering, a male, a perfect one, he doth bring near,
“‘Koma ngati chopereka cha nsembe yopserezayo ndi nkhosa kapena mbuzi kuchokera pa ziweto zake, munthuyo apereke yayimuna yopanda chilema.
11 and he hath slaughtered it by the side of the altar northward, before Jehovah; and sons of Aaron, the priests, have sprinkled its blood on the altar round about;
Ayiphere kumpoto kwa guwa, pamaso pa Yehova, ndipo ana a Aaroni amene ndi ansembe, awaze magazi ake mbali zonse za guwalo.
12 and he hath cut it into its pieces, and its head and its fat, and the priest hath arranged them on the wood, which [is] on the fire, which [is] on the altar;
Kenaka ayidule nyamayo nthulinthuli, ndipo wansembe ayike nthulizo pa guwa, atengenso mutu ndi mafuta omwe, ndipo ayike zonsezi pa nkhuni zimene zikuyaka pa guwa.
13 and the inwards and the legs he doth wash with water, and the priest hath brought the whole near, and hath made perfume on the altar; it [is] a burnt-offering, a fire-offering of sweet fragrance to Jehovah.
Munthuyo atsuke zamʼkati mwa nyamayo pamodzi ndi miyendo yake yomwe, ndipo wansembe abwere nazo zonse ndi kuzitentha pa guwa. Iyi ndi nsembe yopsereza, chopereka chotentha pa moto, fungo lokomera Yehova.
14 'And if his offering [is] a burnt-offering out of the fowl to Jehovah, than he hath brought near his offering out of the turtle-doves or out of the young pigeons,
“‘Koma ngati chopereka kwa Yehova ndi nsembe yopsereza ya mbalame, ndiye ikhale njiwa kapena mawunda.
15 and the priest hath brought it near unto the altar, and hath wrung off its head, and hath made perfume on the altar, and its blood hath been wrung out by the side of the altar;
Wansembe abwere nayo ku guwa, ayidule mutu moyipotola ndi kutentha mutuwo pa guwa. Magazi ake awathire pansi kuti ayenderere pambali pa guwa.
16 and he hath turned aside its crop with its feathers, and hath cast it near the altar, eastward, unto the place of ashes;
Iye achotse chithokomiro pamodzi ndi nthenga zake zomwe ndi kuzitaya ku malo wotayirako phulusa, kummawa kwa guwalo.
17 and he hath cleaved it with its wings (he doth not separate [it]), and the priest hath made it a perfume on the altar, on the wood, which [is] on the fire; it [is] a burnt-offering, a fire-offering of sweet fragrance to Jehovah.
Kenaka ayingʼambe pakati, koma asachotse mapiko. Ndipo wansembe ayiwotche pa nkhuni zimene zikuyaka pa guwa. Imeneyi ndi nsembe yopsereza, yowotcha pa moto ndiponso ya fungo lokomera Yehova.
