Levitikọs 6
1 Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis sị,
Yahweh also said to Moses/me,
2 “Ọ bụrụ na onye ọbụla emehie bụrụ onye na-ekwesighị ntụkwasị obi nye Onyenwe anyị, site nʼiduhie onye agbataobi ya banyere ihe e tinyere ya nʼaka idebe, maọbụ izunarị mmadụ ihe, maọbụ iji aghụghọ nara mmadụ ibe ya ihe;
“If any one of you you sins against me by deceiving someone—if you refuse to return what someone has lent you, or if you steal something of his, or if you find something and claim that you do not have it,
3 maọbụ site nʼijide ihe furu efu nke ọ chọtara ghaa ụgha banyere ya. Ma ọ bụrụ na ha a ṅụọ iyi na ha ejighị ya, maọbụ gbasara ụdị mmehie mmadụ pụrụ ime.
you are guilty. You must return to its owner what you have stolen or what someone has lent you and you have not returned, or what you found that someone else had lost,
4 Mgbe ha mehiere nʼụzọ ọbụla nʼime ụzọ ndị a niile, ghọta na ikpe mara ha. Ha aghaghị inyeghachi onye nwe ihe ahụ ha zuru nʼohi, maọbụ ihe ha pụnara nʼike, maọbụ ihe e nyere ya idebe, ma ọ bụkwanụ ihe ahụ furu efu ọ chọtara,
or whatever you lied about.
5 maọbụ ihe ọbụla ọ ṅụrụ nʼiyi ụgha. Ọ ga-akwụghachi ihe ndị a niile nʼuju, tụkwasịkwa otu ụzọ nʼime ụzọ ise nke ọnụahịa ihe ahụ, nyeghachi ya onye nwe ya, nʼụbọchị ahụ ọ ga-eweta aja ikpe ọmụma ya.
You must not only return anything like that to its owner, but you must also pay to the owner one-fifth of its value.
6 Ọ ga-ewetara onye nchụaja nʼihu Onyenwe anyị, aja ikpe ọmụma ya nke bụ ebule na-enweghị ntụpọ site nʼigwe anụ, nke ọnụahịa ya ga-abụ ihe ahụ e gbubiri iji ịkwụ ụgwọ mmehie.
You must also bring to the Supreme Priest a ram to be an offering to me in order that you will no longer be guilty. The ram that you bring must be one that has no defects, one that has the value that has been officially determined.
7 Nʼụzọ dị otu a, onye nchụaja ga-ekpuchikwara ya mmehie ya nʼihu Onyenwe anyị, a ga-agbaghakwara ha nʼihi ihe ọbụla ha mere nke ikpe ji maa ha.”
Then he will offer that ram to be a sacrifice that will cause you to no longer be guilty, and you will be forgiven for the wrong things that you did.”
8 Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis okwu sị ya,
Yahweh also said to Moses/me,
9 “Nye Erọn na ụmụ ya ndị ikom iwu sị: ‘Ndị a bụ usoro iwu metụtara aja nsure ọkụ. Aja nsure ọkụ ga-adịgide nʼekwu ahụ dị nʼebe ịchụ aja site nʼabalị ruo nʼụtụtụ. A ga-akwanyekwa ọkụ na-adị nʼebe ịchụ aja hapụ ya ka o nwuo abalị niile.
“Tell this to Aaron and his sons: These are the regulations concerning the offerings that will be completely burned [on the altar]: The offering must remain on the altar all during the night, and the fire on the altar must always be kept burning.
10 Mgbe chi bọrọ, onye nchụaja ga-eyiri uwe ime ahụ ya nke akwa ọcha, nakwa uwe elu ahụ ya, gaa kpopu ntụ dị nʼekwu nke ebe ịchụ aja nsure ọkụ ahụ, wụsa ha nʼakụkụ ebe ịchụ aja ahụ.
[The next morning] the priest must put on his linen under-clothes and linen outer clothes. Then he must remove the ashes of the offering from the fire and put them beside the altar.
11 Mgbe o mesịrị nke a, ọ ga-agbanwe uwe ya, kporo ntụ ahụ, buru ya pụọ nʼazụ ogige ahụ gaa wufuo ya nʼebe ahụ e mere ka ọ dị ọcha.
Then he must take off those clothes and put on other clothes, and take the ashes outside the camp, to a place that is acceptable to me.
12 Ọkụ dị nʼebe ịchụ aja ga na-enwu mgbe niile, a gaghị ekwe ka ọ nyụọ. Nʼụtụtụ niile onye nchụaja ga-akwanye ya nkụ ọhụrụ, tụkwasịkwa aja nsure ọkụ nʼelu ya surekwaa abụba aja udo nʼelu ya.
The fire on the altar must always be kept burning; the priest must not allow it to (go out/quit burning). Each morning the priest must put more firewood on the fire. Then he must arrange more offerings on the fire, and burn on the altar the fat of the offerings to be burned to maintain fellowship [with me].
13 Ọkụ ga-enwugide nʼebe ịchụ aja mgbe niile. A gaghị ekwe ka ọ nyụọ mgbe ọbụla.’
The fire on the altar must be kept burning continually; the priest must not allow it to go out.”
14 “‘Ndị a bụ usoro iwu gbasara onyinye mkpụrụ ọka. Ụmụ Erọn ndị ikom ga-eguzo nʼihu ebe ịchụ aja iche ya nʼihu Onyenwe anyị.
“These are the regulations concerning the offerings made from grain: Aaron’s sons must bring them to me in front of the altar.
15 Mgbe ahụ, onye nchụaja ga-ekpoju ọka ahụ a kwọrọ nke ọma, na ụfọdụ mmanụ oliv, tinyere ụda na-esi isi ụtọ nʼaka ya dịka oke ncheta. Kpọọ ya ọkụ nʼelu ebe ịchụ aja ka ọ nọchie anya onyinye ahụ niile, nke isisi ya dị Onyenwe anyị ezi mma.
The priest must take a handful of fine flour mixed with olive oil and incense and burn that on the altar. That handful will signify that the whole offering truly belongs to me. And the aroma while it burns will be pleasing to me.
16 Erọn na ụmụ ya ndị ikom ga-eri nke fọdụrụnụ. Ma a ga-eri ya na-ejighị ihe na-eko achịcha, nʼime ebe nsọ, nʼogige ụlọ nzute ka a ga-anọ eri ya.
Aaron and his sons may eat the remaining part of the grain offering. But they must eat it in a holy place, in the courtyard of the Sacred Tent.
17 Agaghị etinye ya ihe na-eko achịcha ma a na-eghe ya. Enyela ya ka ọ bụrụ oke ruuru ha site nʼonyinye nsure ọkụ e chere nʼihu m. Ha bụkwa ihe dịkarịsịrị nsọ, dịka aja ikpe ọmụma na aja mmehie.
It must not have yeast mixed with it. Like the offerings for sin and the offerings to cause people to no longer be guilty of sin, that offering is very holy.
18 Nwoke ọbụla sitere nʼagbụrụ Erọn, onye nchụaja, nwere ike iri ya. Ọ bụ oke ọ ga na-eketa site nʼonyinye nsure ọkụ niile echere nʼihu Onyenwe anyị ruo nʼọgbọ niile na-abịa. Ihe ọbụla metụrụ ha ahụ ga-aghọ ihe dị nsọ.’”
Any male descendants of Aaron are permitted to eat it, because it is forever their regular share of the offerings given to me and burned in the fire [on the altar]. Anyone else who touches those offerings made from grain will be punished by God.”
19 Onyenwe anyị gwakwara Mosis sị,
Yahweh also said to Moses/me,
20 “Nke a bụ aja Erọn na ụmụ ya ndị ikom ga-achụrụ Onyenwe anyị nʼụbọchị a ga-ete ya mmanụ. Ọ ga-abụ ọtụtụ ruru lita abụọ nke ọka dị ezi mma dịka aja onyinye a na-achụ mgbe niile. Ha ga-enye otu ọkara ya nʼụtụtụ, nye nke ọzọ nʼuhuruchi.
“Tell Aaron and his sons that this is the offering that they must bring to Yahweh on the day that any of them (is ordained/becomes a priest): That person must bring two quarts/liters of fine flour as an offering made from grain. He must bring half of it in the morning and half of it in the evening.
21 Ha ga-etinye ya mmanụ, ghee ya nʼite. Ị ga-ebubata ya mgbe a gwọkọrọ ya nke ọma, chee ya dịka aja ọka a nyawasịrị anyawasị nke isisi ya dị Onyenwe anyị ezi mma.
He must mix it well with olive oil and bake it in a shallow pan. He must then break it into small pieces to be burned [on the altar]. And the aroma while it burns will be pleasing to Yahweh.
22 Nwa nwoke ahụ nke ga-anọchi ya dịka onye nchụaja e tere mmanụ bụ onye ga-akwado ya. Ọ bụ oke ruuru Onyenwe anyị ebighị ebi, bụrụkwa nke a ga-esure ọkụ kpamkpam.
I have commanded that the descendants of Aaron who are appointed in turn to become the Supreme Priests after Aaron dies are the ones who must prepare those things. These offerings must be completely burned [on the altar] to be sacrifices to me, Yahweh.
23 Onyinye mkpụrụ ọka ọbụla nke onye nchụaja nyere ka a ga-akpọ ọkụ kpamkpam. A gaghị eri ya eri.”
Every offering that a priest gives that is made from grain must be completely burned; none of it is to be eaten.”
24 Onyenwe anyị sịrị Mosis,
Yahweh also said to Moses/me,
25 “Gwa Erọn na ụmụ ya ndị ikom, sị, ‘Ndị a bụ usoro iwu unu ga-edebe banyere aja mmehie. A ga-egbu anụ aja mmehie nʼihu Onyenwe anyị, nʼebe ahụ a na-egbu anụ aja nsure ọkụ. Ọ bụ ihe dịkarịsịrị nsọ.
“Tell Aaron and his sons: These are the regulations concerning the offerings that people must bring to me so that I will forgive the people for the sins they have committed:
26 Onye nchụaja chụrụ ya ga-eri anụ ya, ọ bụ nʼakụkụ ebe nsọ ahụ, ya bụ nʼogige ụlọ nzute ahụ ka a ga-anọ rie ya.
The animals must be slaughtered in my presence in the same place that the animals that are to be completely burned [on the altar] are slaughtered, in the courtyard in front of the Sacred Tent.
27 Ihe ọbụla metụrụ anụ nke ọbụla aka, ga-aghọ ihe dị nsọ. Ọ bụrụkwa na ọbara ya efesa nʼuwe ọbụla, ị ga-asụ uwe ahụ nʼakụkụ ebe nsọ ahụ.
Any other person who touches any of its meat will be punished by God. And if its blood is splattered on your clothes, you must wash the clothes in a holy place.
28 A ghaghị itiwa ite aja e ji sie anụ ahụ. Ọ bụrụkwanụ nʼite bronz ka e siri ya, a ga-asa ite ahụ mmiri nke ọma, saa ya ka ọ dị ezi ọcha.
If the meat is cooked in a clay pot, the pot must be broken [afterwards]. But if it is cooked in a bronze pot, the pot must be scoured [afterwards] and rinsed with water.
29 Nwoke ọbụla a mụrụ nʼezinaụlọ ndị nchụaja nwere ike iri anụ ahụ, ọ bụ ihe dịkarịsịrị nsọ.
Any male in a priest’s family may eat some of the cooked meat; that meat is very holy.
30 Ma a gaghị eri anụ aja mmehie ọbụla, bụ nke e webatara ọbara ya nʼime ụlọ nzute maka ikpuchi mmehie nʼEbe nsọ ahụ. Aghaghị ịkpọ ya ọkụ.
But if the blood of those sin offerings is brought into the Sacred Tent to enable the people to be forgiven for having sinned, the meat of those animals must not be eaten. The meat must be completely burned.”
