Levitikọs 24
1 Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis sị,
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
2 “Nye ndị Izrel niile iwu ka ha wetara gị mmanụ oliv asụrụ asụ, nke a na-agwaghị ihe, maka itinye nʼiheọkụ ime ka ọkụ oriọna na-enwu mgbe niile.
Command the children of Israel, that they bring unto thee the finest and dearest oil of olives, to furnish the lamps continually,
3 Na mpụta nke akwa mgbochi nke kpuchiri igbe Ihe Ama ahụ, nʼime ụlọ nzute, Erọn ga-amụnye oriọna ndị ahụ nʼihu Onyenwe anyị mgbe niile, site nʼuhuruchi ruo nʼụtụtụ. Nke a bụ ụkpụrụ ga-adịgide nye ọgbọ niile dị nʼihu.
Without the veil of the testimony in the tabernacle of the covenant. And Aaron shall set them from evening until morning before the Lord, by a perpetual service and rite in your generations.
4 Ihe ọkụ ọlaedo a nụchara anụcha ndị ahụ dọọ nʼelu ihe ịdọkwasị oriọna, nʼihu Onyenwe anyị ga na-enwu ọkụ mgbe niile.
They shall be set upon the most pure candlestick before the Lord continually.
5 “Were ọka a kwọrọ nke ọma mee ogbe achịcha iri na abụọ. Jiri ihe ruru iko ọka asatọ mee otu ogbe achịcha ọbụla.
Thou shalt take also fine hour, and shalt bake twelve leaves thereof, two tenths shall be in every loaf:
6 Doo achịcha ndị a nʼahịrị abụọ nʼelu tebul ahụ e ji ọlaedo a nụchara anụcha kpụọ, nke dị nʼihu Onyenwe anyị. Ogbe achịcha isii ga-adị nʼotu ahịrị.
And thou shalt set them six and six one against another upon the most clean table before the Lord:
7 Nʼogologo ahịrị ọbụla tinye insensi a na-agwaghị ihe, ka ọ bụrụ ihe nọchiri achịcha ndị a dịka onyinye nsure ọkụ nye Onyenwe anyị.
And thou shalt put upon them the dearest frankincense, that the bread may be for a memorial of the oblation of the Lord.
8 A ga-edo achịcha ndị a nʼihu Onyenwe anyị oge niile, ụbọchị izuike niile, nʼọnọdụ ụmụ Izrel, dịka ọgbụgba ndụ ebighị ebi.
Every sabbath they shall be changed before the Lord, being received of the children of Israel by an everlasting covenant:
9 Ọ dịrị Erọn na ụmụ ya ndị ikom, bụ ndị ga-eri ya nʼime nʼebe nsọ ahụ, nʼihi na ọ bụ oke dịkarịsịrị nsọ, site nʼoke ha mgbe niile, nke sitere nʼonyinye nsure ọkụ e chere nye Onyenwe anyị.”
And they shall be Aaron’s and his sons’, that they may eat them in the holy place: because it is most holy of the sacrifices of the Lord by a perpetual right.
10 Otu nwokorobịa, nke nna ya bụ onye Ijipt ma nne ya bụ onye Izrel, sitere nʼetiti ụmụ Izrel pụta. O ruo na nwoke a nne ya bụ onye Izrel na otu nʼime ndị ikom Izrel malitere ịlụ ọgụ.
And behold there went out the son of a woman of Israel, whom she had of an Egyptian, among the children of Israel, and fell at words in the camp with a man of Israel.
11 Mgbe ha na-alụ ọgụ ahụ nwoke ahụ nne ya bụ onye Izrel kwuluru Aha ahụ kọchaa ya. Nʼihi ya, a kpọrọ ya ikpe nʼihu Mosis. (Aha nne ya bụ Shelomit, nwa Dibri, onye ebo Dan.)
And when he had blasphemed the name, and had cursed it, he was brought to Moses: (now his mother was called Salumith, the daughter of Dabri, of the tribe of Dan: )
12 Ha tinyere nwoke ahụ nʼụlọ mkpọrọ na-eche ka ha nụ okwu Onyenwe anyị, ịmata ihe ha ga-eme ya.
And they put him into prison, till they might know what the Lord would command.
13 Mgbe ahụ, Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis sị,
And the Lord spoke to Moses,
14 “Kpụrụ onye nkwulu ahụ gaa nʼazụ obodo. Ndị niile nụrụ okwu ahụ o kwuru ga-ebikwasị ya aka ha nʼisi. Mgbe ahụ, ọgbakọ Izrel niile ga-eji nkume tugbuo ya.
Saying: Bring forth the blasphemer without the camp, and let them that heard him, put their hands upon his head, and let all the people stone him.
15 Gwa ụmụ Izrel okwu sị ha, ‘Onye ọbụla kọchara Chineke ya ga-ebu mmehie ya nʼisi ya.
And thou shalt speak to the children of Israel: the man that curseth his God, shall bear his sin:
16 Onye ọbụla kwuluru aha Onyenwe anyị ka a ga-egbu. Mmadụ niile ga-agbakọ jiri nkume tugbuo onye ahụ. Onye ọbụla kwuluru Aha ahụ, maọbụ ọbịa, maọbụ nwa afọ ala, ka a ga-egbu.
And he that blasphemeth the name of the Lord, dying let him die: all the multitude shall stone him, whether he be a native or a stranger. He that blasphemeth the name of the Lord, dying let him die.
17 “‘Onye ọbụla gburu mmadụ ka a ga-egbu.
He that striketh and killeth a man, dying let him die.
18 Onye gburu anụ ụlọ na-abụghị nke ya, ga-akwụghachi ụgwọ ya. Ndụ ga-alara ndụ.
He that killeth a beast, shall make it good, that is to say, shall give beast for beast.
19 Onye ọbụla merụrụ mmadụ ibe ya ahụ, a ga-emerụkwa onye ahụ ahụ nʼebe o merụrụ ibe ya ahụ.
He that giveth a blemish to any of his neighbours: as he hath done, so shall it be done to him:
20 Onye tijiri mmadụ ọkpụkpụ, a ga-etiji ọkpụkpụ nke ya. Anya ga-alara anya, eze ga-alakwara eze. Otu e si merụọ mmadụ ahụ, ka a ga-esi merụọkwa onye merụrụ ya ahụ.
Breach for breach, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, shall he restore. What blemish he gave, the like shall he be compelled to suffer.
21 Onye ọbụla gburu anụ ụlọ onye ọzọ, ga-akwụ ụgwọ ya. Ma a ga-egbu onye ọbụla gburu mmadụ.
He that striketh a beast, shall render another. He that striketh a man shall be punished.
22 Unu ga-enwe otu iwu nke ga-adị nye ndị amụrụ nʼala, dịkwara ndị ọbịa niile. Abụ m Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu.’”
Let there be equal judgment among you, whether he be a stranger, or a native that offends: because I am the Lord your God.
23 Mgbe ahụ, Mosis gwara ndị Izrel okwu, nʼihi ya ha dọkpụụrụ onye nkwulu ahụ pụọ nʼazụ obodo, jiri nkume tugbuo ya nʼebe ahụ, dịka Onyenwe anyị nyere Mosis nʼiwu.
And Moses spoke to the children of Israel: and they brought forth him that had blasphemed, without the camp, and they stoned him. And the children of Israel did as the Lord had commanded Moses.
