Levitikọs 23

1 Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis okwu sị ya,

And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

2 “Gwa ụmụ Izrel okwu sị ha, ‘Ndị a bụ mmemme a kara aka nye Onyenwe anyị, nke unu ga-ekwusa dịka mkpọkọta dị nsọ.

Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, [Concerning] the feasts of the LORD, which ye shall proclaim [to be] holy convocations, [even] these [are] my feasts.

3 “‘Ụbọchị isii ka unu ga-eji rụọ ọrụ. Ma ụbọchị nke asaa, bụ ụbọchị izuike, ụbọchị mkpọkọta dị nsọ. Unu agaghị arụ ọrụ ọbụla nʼụbọchị ahụ, nʼebe ọbụla unu bi. Ọ bụ ụbọchị izuike nye Onyenwe anyị.

Six days shall work be done: but the seventh day [is] the sabbath of rest, an holy convocation; ye shall do no work [therein: ] it [is] the sabbath of the LORD in all your dwellings.

4 “‘Ndị a bụ mmemme Onyenwe anyị a kara aka, mkpọkọta dị nsọ nke unu ga-ekwusa nʼoge a kara aka.

These [are] the feasts of the LORD, [even] holy convocations, which ye shall proclaim in their seasons.

5 Nʼọnwa mbụ, nʼụbọchị nke iri na anọ nke ọnwa ahụ, nʼoge uhuruchi, mgbe anwụ dara, ka Mmemme Ngabiga Onyenwe anyị ga-adị.

In the fourteenth [day] of the first month at even [is] the LORD’s passover.

6 Mmemme achịcha na-ekoghị eko Onyenwe anyị ka unu ga-ebido nʼụbọchị iri na ise nke ọnwa ahụ. Abalị asaa ka unu ga-eri achịcha a na-ejighị ihe na-eko achịcha mee.

And on the fifteenth day of the same month [is] the feast of unleavened bread unto the LORD: seven days ye must eat unleavened bread.

7 Nʼụbọchị mbụ nke mmemme a, unu ga-enwe mkpọkọta dị nsọ, ọ dịkwaghị onye ọbụla ga-arụ ọrụ ọbụla.

In the first day ye shall have an holy convocation: ye shall do no servile work therein.

8 Unu ga-eweta aja e sitere nʼọkụ chụọ nye Onyenwe anyị. Nʼụbọchị nke asaa nweenụ mkpọkọta dị nsọ, unu arụkwala ọrụ nke ụbọchị ahụ.’”

But ye shall offer an offering made by fire unto the LORD seven days: in the seventh day [is] an holy convocation: ye shall do no servile work [therein].

9 Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis sị ya,

And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

10 “Gwa ụmụ Izrel sị ha, ‘Mgbe unu banyere nʼala ahụ m na-aga inye unu, ghọta mkpụrụ ihe ubi nke mbụ unu, unu ga-ewetara onye nchụaja otu ukwu ọka site nʼọka unu ghọtara nʼubi unu.

Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye be come into the land which I give unto you, and shall reap the harvest thereof, then ye shall bring a sheaf of the firstfruits of your harvest unto the priest:

11 Ọ ga-anara unu ukwu ọka ahụ fufee ya nʼihu Onyenwe anyị, ka a nabata ya. Ọ bụ nʼụbọchị ahụ ga-esote ụbọchị izuike ka onye nchụaja ga-efufe ya.

And he shall wave the sheaf before the LORD, to be accepted for you: on the morrow after the sabbath the priest shall wave it.

12 Nʼotu ụbọchị ahụ e fufere ukwu ọka ahụ, unu ga-ewere nwa ebule na-enweghị ntụpọ, nke gbara naanị otu afọ, chụọrọ Onyenwe anyị aja nsure ọkụ.

And ye shall offer that day when ye wave the sheaf an he lamb without blemish of the first year for a burnt offering unto the LORD.

13 Aja mkpụrụ ọka ga-eso aja nsure ọkụ a. Ọ ga-eji iko ọka a kwọrọ nke ọma iri na abụọ a gwara mmanụ oliv, ka ọ bụrụ ihe e surere nʼọkụ na-esi ezi isi ọma nye Onyenwe anyị. A ga-enyekwa iko mmanya atọ dịka onyinye ihe ọṅụṅụ

And the meat offering thereof [shall be] two tenth deals of fine flour mingled with oil, an offering made by fire unto the LORD [for] a sweet savour: and the drink offering thereof [shall be] of wine, the fourth [part] of an hin.

14 Unu agaghị eri achịcha, maọbụ ọka e ghere eghe, maọbụ ọka ọhụrụ tutu ruo mgbe unu buru ụzọ weta onyinye nye Chineke unu. Nʼebe ọbụla unu bi, ụkpụrụ a ga-adịgide ruo ọgbọ niile.

And ye shall eat neither bread, nor parched corn, nor green ears, until the selfsame day that ye have brought an offering unto your God: [it shall be] a statute for ever throughout your generations in all your dwellings.

15 “‘Site nʼụbọchị ahụ sotere ụbọchị izuike, bụ ụbọchị ahụ unu wetara ukwu ọka nke onyinye mfufe, gụpụta izu asaa zuru ezu.

And ye shall count unto you from the morrow after the sabbath, from the day that ye brought the sheaf of the wave offering; seven sabbaths shall be complete:

16 Gụpụtakwa iri ụbọchị ise site nʼụbọchị izuike ahụ mezuru izu asaa ahụ ma wetara Onyenwe anyị onyinye ọka ọhụrụ.

Even unto the morrow after the seventh sabbath shall ye number fifty days; and ye shall offer a new meat offering unto the LORD.

17 Site nʼebe ọbụla unu bi, unu ga-ewetara Onyenwe anyị ogbe achịcha abụọ nke unu ji iko ọka a kwọrọ nke ọma iri na abụọ, nke e ji ihe na-eko achịcha mee, ya bụ yiist, dịka aja mfufe nke mkpụrụ mbụ nye Onyenwe anyị.

Ye shall bring out of your habitations two wave loaves of two tenth deals: they shall be of fine flour; they shall be baken with leaven; [they are] the firstfruits unto the LORD.

18 Tinyere achịcha a, unu ga-eweta ụmụ atụrụ asaa gbara otu afọ, ndị na-enweghị ntụpọ, na otu nwa oke ehi, na ebule abụọ. Ha ga-abụ aja nsure ọkụ nye Onyenwe anyị, ya na aja mkpụrụ ọka na aja ihe ọṅụṅụ, aja e sitere nʼọkụ chụọ, nke isisi ya dị ezi mma nye Onyenwe anyị.

And ye shall offer with the bread seven lambs without blemish of the first year, and one young bullock, and two rams: they shall be [for] a burnt offering unto the LORD, with their meat offering, and their drink offerings, [even] an offering made by fire, of sweet savour unto the LORD.

19 Unu ga-ejikwa otu mkpi chụọ aja mmehie. Werekwa ụmụ atụrụ abụọ gbara otu afọ, otu afọ, chụọ aja udo.

Then ye shall sacrifice one kid of the goats for a sin offering, and two lambs of the first year for a sacrifice of peace offerings.

20 Onye nchụaja ga-efufe ụmụ atụrụ abụọ ndị a, na achịcha ndị si na mkpụrụ mbụ ahụ nʼihu Onyenwe anyị dịka aja mfufe. Ha bụ aja dị nsọ nye Onyenwe anyị. Ọ bụkwa ndị nchụaja ga-ewere ha dịka nri ha.

And the priest shall wave them with the bread of the firstfruits [for] a wave offering before the LORD, with the two lambs: they shall be holy to the LORD for the priest.

21 Nʼotu ụbọchị ahụ unu ga-akpọsakwa mkpọkọta dị nsọ, unu arụkwala ọrụ nke ụbọchị ahụ. Nke a ga-abụ ụkpụrụ ga-adịgide ebighị ebi site nʼọgbọ ruo nʼọgbọ niile, nʼebe ọbụla unu bi.

And ye shall proclaim on the selfsame day, [that] it may be an holy convocation unto you: ye shall do no servile work [therein: it shall be] a statute for ever in all your dwellings throughout your generations.

22 “‘Mgbe unu na-ewe ihe ubi, unu ewechala ihe niile dị nʼakụkụ niile nke ubi unu. Hapụrụnụ ha ụmụ ogbenye, na ndị ọbịa. Hapụkwara ha mkpụrụ ubi niile dara nʼala. Abụ m Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu.’”

And when ye reap the harvest of your land, thou shalt not make clean riddance of the corners of thy field when thou reapest, neither shalt thou gather any gleaning of thy harvest: thou shalt leave them unto the poor, and to the stranger: I [am] the LORD your God.

23 Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis sị,

And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

24 “Gwa ụmụ Izrel sị, ‘Ụbọchị mbụ nke ọnwa nke asaa ga-abụ ụbọchị izuike, ụbọchị mkpọkọta dị nsọ nke a ga-eji opi na-ada oke ụda cheta.

Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, In the seventh month, in the first [day] of the month, shall ye have a sabbath, a memorial of blowing of trumpets, an holy convocation.

25 Unu arụla ọrụ ọbụla nʼụbọchị ahụ, kama unu ga-achụ aja nsure ọkụ nye Onyenwe anyị.’”

Ye shall do no servile work [therein: ] but ye shall offer an offering made by fire unto the LORD.

26 Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis sị,

And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

27 “Ụbọchị nke iri nke ọnwa asaa a bụ ụbọchị Mkpuchi Mmehie. Ọ bụ ụbọchị mkpọkọta dị nsọ nye unu. Unu ga-ata onwe unu ahụhụ bịa wetara Onyenwe anyị onyinye site nʼọkụ.

Also on the tenth [day] of this seventh month [there shall be] a day of atonement: it shall be an holy convocation unto you; and ye shall afflict your souls, and offer an offering made by fire unto the LORD.

28 Unu arụla ọrụ ọbụla nʼụbọchị ahụ nʼihi na ụbọchị ahụ bụ ụbọchị ịchụ aja mkpuchi mmehie unu nʼihu Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu.

And ye shall do no work in that same day: for it [is] a day of atonement, to make an atonement for you before the LORD your God.

29 Onye ọbụla na-ejighị ụbọchị ahụ weda onwe ya nʼala ka a ga-ekewapụ site nʼetiti ndị ya.

For whatsoever soul [it be] that shall not be afflicted in that same day, he shall be cut off from among his people.

30 Aga m ebibikwa onye ọbụla rụrụ ọrụ nʼụbọchị ahụ.

And whatsoever soul [it be] that doeth any work in that same day, the same soul will I destroy from among his people.

31 Unu agaghị arụ ọrụ ọbụla. Nʼebe ọbụla unu bi, ụkpụrụ a ga-adịgide nye unu niile site nʼọgbọ ruo nʼọgbọ.

Ye shall do no manner of work: [it shall be] a statute for ever throughout your generations in all your dwellings.

32 Ọ ga-abụ ụbọchị izuike zuruoke nye unu, unu ga-ewedakwa onwe unu nʼala. Nʼụbọchị nke itoolu nke ọnwa ahụ, site nʼuhuruchi ruo nʼuhuruchi nke na-esote ya, unu ga-edebe izuike unu.”

It [shall be] unto you a sabbath of rest, and ye shall afflict your souls: in the ninth [day] of the month at even, from even unto even, shall ye celebrate your sabbath.

33 Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis sị,

And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

34 “Gwa ụmụ Izrel, ‘Nʼụbọchị nke iri na ise, nʼọnwa nke asaa, ka unu ga-amalite mmemme Ụlọ Ikwu Onyenwe anyị. A ga-eme ya ụbọchị asaa.

Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, The fifteenth day of this seventh month [shall be] the feast of tabernacles [for] seven days unto the LORD.

35 Nʼụbọchị nke mbụ bụ ụbọchị mkpọkọta dị nsọ. Onye ọbụla agaghị arụ ọrụ nʼụbọchị ahụ.

On the first day [shall be] an holy convocation: ye shall do no servile work [therein].

36 Nʼụbọchị ọbụla nʼime ụbọchị asaa ndị a niile ka a ga-ewetara Onyenwe anyị onyinye site nʼọkụ. Nʼụbọchị nke asatọ ka mkpọkọta dị nsọ ga-adị. A ga-achụ aja nsure ọkụ nye Onyenwe anyị, nʼụbọchị a. Ọ bụ mkpokọta mmechi, nʼihi ya, a gaghị arụ ọrụ ọbụla nʼụbọchị ahụ.

Seven days ye shall offer an offering made by fire unto the LORD: on the eighth day shall be an holy convocation unto you; and ye shall offer an offering made by fire unto the LORD: it [is] a solemn assembly; [and] ye shall do no servile work [therein].

37 (“‘Ndị a bụ mmemme a kara aka, mgbe a ga-ekwusa mkpọkọta dị nsọ maka iwetara Onyenwe anyị onyinye nri, ya bụ, onyinye aja nsure ọkụ, na onyinye mkpụrụ ọka, na aja dị iche iche, na onyinye ihe ọṅụṅụ dịka e sị hazie na ọ ga na-adị kwa ụbọchị.

These [are] the feasts of the LORD, which ye shall proclaim [to be] holy convocations, to offer an offering made by fire unto the LORD, a burnt offering, and a meat offering, a sacrifice, and drink offerings, every thing upon his day:

38 Unu ga-enye onyinye ndị a, tinyere onyinye a na-enye Onyenwe anyị nʼụbọchị izuike, na tinyere onyinye ndị ọzọ unu na-enye na ihe ndị ọzọ unu kwere na nkwa, na onyinye afọ ofufu niile unu na-enye Onyenwe anyị.)

Beside the sabbaths of the LORD, and beside your gifts, and beside all your vows, and beside all your freewill offerings, which ye give unto the LORD.

39 “‘Ya mere, malite nʼụbọchị nke iri na ise nke ọnwa asaa, mgbe unu webatasịrị ihe ubi unu, meerenụ Onyenwe anyị mmemme ụbọchị asaa, ụbọchị nke mbụ, na ụbọchị nke asatọ ga-abụ ụbọchị izuike.

Also in the fifteenth day of the seventh month, when ye have gathered in the fruit of the land, ye shall keep a feast unto the LORD seven days: on the first day [shall be] a sabbath, and on the eighth day [shall be] a sabbath.

40 Nʼụbọchị nke mbụ, unu ga-ewere ụfọdụ mkpụrụ osisi dị mma nke si nʼosisi unu na-amị mkpụrụ, gbutekwa igu nkwụ, na alaka osisi nwere ahịhịa ndụ, na osisi pọpla, jiri ha mee mmemme obi ụtọ nʼihu Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu ụbọchị asaa.

And ye shall take you on the first day the boughs of goodly trees, branches of palm trees, and the boughs of thick trees, and willows of the brook; and ye shall rejoice before the LORD your God seven days.

41 Mmemme ụbọchị asaa a ga-adị nye Onyenwe anyị nʼafọ niile, site nʼọgbọ ruo nʼọgbọ unu niile. Ọ bụkwa nʼọnwa nke asaa ka unu ga-eme mmemme a.

And ye shall keep it a feast unto the LORD seven days in the year. [It shall be] a statute for ever in your generations: ye shall celebrate it in the seventh month.

42 Nʼoge mmemme a, ụmụ Izrel niile ga-ebi nʼụlọ e ji alaka osisi na ahịhịa wuo ụbọchị asaa. Ụmụ afọ Izrel niile ga-ebi nʼụlọ dị otu a.

Ye shall dwell in booths seven days; all that are Israelites born shall dwell in booths:

43 Nke a ga-echetara ọgbọ ụmụ Izrel niile na mgbe m kpọpụtara unu site nʼala Ijipt, unu biri nʼụlọ e ji osisi na ahịhịa wuo nʼọzara. Abụ m Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu.’”

That your generations may know that I made the children of Israel to dwell in booths, when I brought them out of the land of Egypt: I [am] the LORD your God.

44 Mosis gwara ụmụ Izrel ihe gbasara mmemme niile a kara aka nye Onyenwe anyị.

And Moses declared unto the children of Israel the feasts of the LORD.
