Levitikọs 16
1 Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis okwu mgbe ụmụ ndị ikom Erọn abụọ ndị ahụ bịara nʼihu Onyenwe anyị nwụsịrị.
And the Lord spoke to Moses after the two sons of Aaron died in bringing strange fire before the Lord, so they died.
2 Onyenwe anyị sịrị Mosis, “Gwa nwanne gị nwoke Erọn si ya ka ọ ghara ịbata mgbe ọbụla ọ chọrọ, nʼime Ebe ahụ Kachasị Nsọ nke dị nʼazụ akwa mgbochi, nke dị nʼihu ebe mkpuchi mmehie dị nʼelu igbe ọgbụgba ndụ ahụ, ma ọ bụghị ya ọ ga-anwụ. Nʼihi na aga m apụta ìhè nʼime igwe ojii dị nʼelu ebe mkpuchi ahụ.
And the Lord said to Moses, Speak to Aaron your brother, and let him not come in at all times into the holy place within the veil before the propitiatory, which is upon the ark of the testimony, and he shall not die; for I will appear in a cloud on the propitiatory.
3 “Otu a ka Erọn ga-esi na-abata nʼEbe ahụ Kachasị Nsọ. Ọ ga-eweta nwa oke ehi nʼihi aja mmehie, na ebule ọ ga-eji chụọ aja nsure ọkụ,
Thus shall Aaron enter into the holy place; with a calf of the herd for a sin-offering, and [having] a ram for a whole burnt offering.
4 Ọ ga-eyikwasị onwe ya uwe mwụda ọcha, ya na uwe ime ahụ dị ọcha. Ọ ga-eke gburugburu ukwu ya ihe ike nʼukwu akwa ọcha, keekwa akwa ọcha nʼisi ya. Ndị a bụ uwe dị nsọ, nʼihi ya, ọ ga-ebu ụzọ saa ahụ tupu ọ na-eyi ha.
And he shall put on the consecrated linen tunic, and he shall have on his flesh the linen drawers, and shall gird himself with a linen girdle, and shall put on the linen cap, they are holy garments; and he shall bathe all his body in water, and shall put them on.
5 Ọ ga-esi nʼaka ọgbakọ ụmụ Izrel nata mkpi abụọ nʼihi aja mmehie, na otu ebule nʼihi aja nsure ọkụ.
And he shall take of the congregation of the children of Israel two kids of the goats for a sin-offering, and one lamb for a whole burnt offering.
6 “Erọn ga-eweta oke ehi nke ya, maka aja mmehie iji kpuchie mmehie nke ya na nke ezinaụlọ ya.
And Aaron shall bring the calf for his own sin-offering, and shall make atonement for himself and for his house.
7 Emesịa, ọ ga-ewere mkpi abụọ ndị ahụ chee ha nʼihu Onyenwe anyị nʼọnụ ụzọ ụlọ nzute ahụ.
And he shall take the two goats, and place them before the Lord by the door of the tabernacle of witness.
8 Ọ ga-efe nza nʼisi mkpi abụọ ahụ, ịchọpụta nke dịrị Onyenwe anyị nke ọzọ abụrụ nke ọ ga-ahapụ.
and Aaron shall cast lots upon the two goats, one lot for the Lord, and the other for the scape-goat.
9 Mkpi ahụ nza mara ga-abụ nke Onyenwe anyị, ya ka Erọn ga-egbu dịka aja mmehie.
And Aaron shall bring forward the goat on which the lot for the Lord fell, and shall offer him for a sin-offering.
10 Ma mkpi ahụ nke nza mara dịka ewu na-ewere ọnọdụ iburu mmehie ka a ga-eche na ndụ nʼihu Onyenwe anyị, nʼihi iji ya mee mmemme mkpuchi mmehie, a ga-ahapụ ya ka o buru mmehie niile kpafuo nʼọzara.
and the goat upon which the lot of the scape-goat came, he shall present alive before the Lord, to make atonement upon him, so as to send him away as a scape-goat, and he shall send him into the wilderness.
11 “Erọn ga-eweta oke ehi maka aja mmehie nke ya onwe ya, iji kpuchie mmehie ya na nke ezinaụlọ ya. Ọ ga-egbu oke ehi ahụ maka aja mmehie nke ya onwe ya.
And Aaron shall bring the calf for his sin, and he shall make atonement for himself and for his house, and he shall kill the calf for his sin-offering.
12 Ọ ga-esite nʼebe ịchụ aja dị nʼihu Onyenwe anyị were ihe ịgụ ọkụ jupụtara nʼicheku ọkụ. Ọ ga-ewerekwa ụda na-esi isi ụtọ ruru mkpoju aka abụọ, were ha bata nʼime akụkụ nke ọzọ nke akwa mgbochi ahụ.
And he shall take his censer full of coals of fire off the altar, which is before the Lord; and he shall fill his hands with fine compound incense, and shall bring it within the veil.
13 Nʼebe ahụ ọ ga-awụnye ụda ndị ahụ na-esi isi ụtọ nʼelu icheku ọkụ ahụ nʼihu Onyenwe anyị, ka anwụrụ ọkụ nke ụda ndị a kpuchie ebe mkpuchi mmehie ahụ dị nʼelu Ihe Ama ahụ ka ọ ghara ịnwụ.
And he shall put the incense on the fire before the Lord, and the smoke of the incense shall cover the mercy-seat over the tables of testimony, and he shall not die.
14 Ọ ga-ewebatakwa ụfọdụ ọbara oke ehi ahụ, jiri mkpịsịaka ya fesa ya nʼihu ebe mkpuchi mmehie ahụ, nʼakụkụ ọwụwa anyanwụ, fesakwa ya ugboro asaa nʼihu ebe mkpuchi mmehie ahụ.
And he shall take of the blood of the calf, and sprinkle with his finger on the mercy-seat eastward: before the mercy-seat shall he sprinkle seven times of the blood with his finger.
15 “Emesịa, ọ ga-esi nʼebe ahụ pụọ gaa gbuo mkpi aja mmehie ụmụ Izrel, werekwa ọbara ya bata nʼazụ akwa mgbochi fesa ya nʼelu ebe mkpuchi mmehie ahụ, na nʼihu ya, dịka o jiri ọbara nwa oke ehi ahụ mee.
And he shall kill the goat for the sin-offering that is for the people, before the Lord; and he shall bring in of its blood within the veil, and shall do with its blood as he did with the blood of the calf, and shall sprinkle its blood on the mercy-seat, in front of the mercy-seat.
16 Nʼụzọ dị otu a, ọ ga-ekpuchiri Ebe ahụ Kachasị Nsọ mmehie ya, nʼihi mmehie na nnupu isi ụmụ Izrel, ihe ọbụla mmehie ndị ahụ bụ. Ọ ga-achụkwa ụdị aja a nʼihi ụlọ nzute ahụ, nʼihi na ọ dị nʼetiti ebe obibi rụrụ arụ nke ụmụ Izrel.
and he shall make atonement for the sanctuary on account of the uncleanness of the children of Israel, and for their trespasses in the matter of all their sins; and thus shall he do to the tabernacle of witness established amongst them in the midst of their uncleanness.
17 O nweghị onye ọbụla ọzọ ga-anọ nʼime ụlọ nzute ahụ, site nʼoge Erọn banyere nʼEbe ahụ Kachasị Nsọ ịchụ aja mkpuchi mmehie tutu ruo mgbe ọ pụtara, mgbe ọ chụchara aja mkpuchi mmehie maka onwe ya na ezinaụlọ ya, na maka ụmụ Izrel niile.
and there shall be no man in the tabernacle of witness, when he goes in to make atonement in the holy place, until he shall have come out; and he shall make atonement for himself, and for his house, and for all the congregation of the children of Israel.
18 “Mgbe o si nʼebe ahụ pụta, gaa nʼebe ịchụ aja dị nʼihu Onyenwe anyị kpuchiere ya mmehie ya. Ọ ga-ewere ụfọdụ ọbara nwa oke ehi ahụ na nke mkpi ahụ tee ya na mpi niile dị nʼebe ịchụ aja ahụ.
And he shall come forth to the altar that is before the Lord, and he shall make atonement upon it; and he shall take of the blood of the calf, and of the blood of the goat, and shall put it on the horns of the altar round about.
19 Ọ ga-eji mkpịsịaka ya fesa ụfọdụ ọbara ahụ nʼelu ebe ịchụ aja ahụ ugboro asaa iji hichapụ adịghị ọcha ya nʼihi ịrụ arụ ụmụ Izrel, na ido ya nsọ.
And he shall sprinkle some of the blood upon it seven times with his finger, and shall purge it, and hallow it from the uncleanness of the children of Israel.
20 “Mgbe Erọn chụchara aja mkpuchi mmehie maka Ebe ahụ Kachasị Nsọ, ụlọ nzute, nakwa ebe ịchụ aja, ọ ga-akpụbata mkpi ahụ e debere ndụ.
And he shall finish making atonement for the sanctuary and for the tabernacle of witness, and for the altar; and he shall make a cleansing for the priests, and he shall bring the living goat;
21 Ọ ga-ebikwasị aka ya abụọ nʼisi ya, kwupụta ajọ omume na nnupu isi ụmụ Izrel niile, mmehie ha niile, bokwasị ha mkpi ahụ nʼisi. Ọ ga-ezipụ mkpi ahụ pụọ nʼime ọzara site nʼaka onye ahụ a họpụtara ime nke a.
and Aaron shall lay his hands on the head of the live goat, and he shall declare over him all the iniquities of the children of Israel, and all their unrighteousness, and all their sins; and he shall lay them upon the head of the live goat, and shall send him by the hand of a ready man into the wilderness.
22 Nʼụzọ dị otu a, mkpi ahụ ga-eburu mmehie ndị ahụ niile baa nʼebe mmadụ ọbụla na-ebighị. Nwoke ahụ ga-ahapụkwa ya nʼọzara.
And the goat shall bear their unrighteousnesses upon him into a desert land; and Aaron shall send away the goat into the wilderness.
23 “Mgbe ahụ, Erọn ga-aba nʼime ụlọ nzute ahụ, yipụ uwe akwa ọcha ndị nchụaja ahụ niile o yi nʼahụ ya tupu ọ banye nʼEbe ahụ Kachasị Nsọ. Ọ ga-awụsa ha nʼebe ahụ.
And Aaron shall enter into the tabernacle of witness, and shall put off the linen garment, which he had put on, as he entered into the holy place, and shall lay it by there.
24 Ọ ga-eji mmiri saa ahụ ya nʼakụkụ ebe nsọ ahụ, yirikwa uwe efu ya. Mgbe ahụ, ọ ga-apụta bịa chụọ aja nsure ọkụ nke onwe ya, na aja nsure ọkụ nke ndị ahụ, maka ikpuchiri onwe ya, na ikpuchikwara ndị ahụ mmehie ha.
And he shall bathe his body in water in the holy place, and shall put on his raiment, and shall go out and offer the whole burnt offering for himself and the whole burnt offering for the people: and shall make atonement for himself and for his house, and for the people, as for the priests.
25 Ọ ga-akpọkwa abụba anụ e ji chụọ aja mmehie ahụ ọkụ nʼelu ebe ịchụ aja.
And he shall offer the fat for the sin-offering on the altar.
26 “Mgbe nwoke ahụ kpụgara mkpi ahụ nʼọzara hapụ ya, lọtara, ọ ga-asa ahụ ya na uwe ya tupu ọ laghachi nʼime obodo.
And he that sends forth the goat that has been set apart to be let go, shall wash his garments, and bathe his body in water, and afterwards shall enter into the camp.
27 Oke ehi nakwa mkpi maka ịchụ aja mmehie ahụ, bụ nke ewebatara ọbara ha nʼime Ebe ahụ Kachasị Nsọ, maka ikpuchi mmehie, ka aghaghị ibupụ nʼazụ ọmụma ụlọ ikwu; a ga-akpọ akpụkpọ ha, anụ ahụ ha na mgbịrị afọ ha niile ọkụ.
And the calf for the sin-offering, and the goat for the sin-offering, whose blood was brought in to make atonement in the holy place, they shall carry forth out of the camp, and burn them with fire, even their skins and their flesh and their dung.
28 Onye ga-akpọ ha ọkụ ga-asa uwe ya, saakwa ahụ ya tupu ọ laghachi nʼime obodo.
And he that burns them shall wash his garments, and bathe his body in water, and afterwards he shall enter into the camp.
29 “Nke a ga-abụrụ unu ụkpụrụ ebighị ebi. Nʼafọ ọbụla, unu ga-ebu ọnụ, hapụ ịrụ ọrụ ọbụla, nʼụbọchị iri nke ọnwa asaa. Iwu a dịrị nwa afọ ala maọbụ onye ọbịa bi nʼetiti unu.
And this shall be a perpetual statute for you; in the seventh month, on the tenth day of the month, you shall humble your souls, and shall do no work, the native and the stranger who abides amongst you.
30 Nʼihi na nʼụbọchị a ka a na-ekpuchiri unu mmehie unu, ime ka unu dịrị ọcha. Mgbe ahụ, unu ga-abụ ndị dị ọcha site na mmehie unu niile nʼihu Onyenwe anyị.
For in this day he shall make an atonement for you, to cleanse you from all your sins before the Lord, and you shall be purged.
31 Ọ bụ ụbọchị izuike nye unu, bụrụkwa ụbọchị unu ga-ebu ọnụ. Iwu a enweghị mgbanwe!
This shall be to you a most holy sabbath, a rest, and you shall humble your souls; it is a perpetual ordinance.
32 Onye nchụaja e tere mmanụ, nke e doro nsọ dịka onye nchụaja ịnọchi nna ya, ga-achụ aja mkpuchi mmehie ndị a, yirikwa akwa ọcha ahụ, bụ uwe nsọ ahụ.
The priest whoever they shall anoint shall make atonement, and whoever they shall consecrate to exercise the priestly office after his father; and he shall put on the linen robe, the holy garment.
33 Ọ ga-ekpuchiri Ebe ahụ Kachasị Nsọ na ụlọ nzute, ebe ịchụ aja na ndị nchụaja, na mkpokọta ndị obodo niile mmehie ha.
And he shall make atonement for the most holy place, and the tabernacle of witness; and he shall make atonement for the altar, and for the priests; and he shall make atonement for all the congregation.
34 “Nke a ga-abụ iwu ebighị ebi nye unu. Otu ugboro nʼotu afọ ka a ga-ekpuchi mmehie maka mmehie ndị Izrel niile.” E mezuru ihe ndị a niile dịka Onyenwe anyị si nye ya Mosis nʼiwu.
And this shall be to you a perpetual statute to make atonement for the children of Israel for all their sins: it shall be done once in the year, as the Lord commanded Moses.
