Levitikọs 9
1 Nʼụbọchị nke asatọ, Mosis kpọrọ Erọn na ụmụ ya ndị ikom, na ndị okenye Izrel.
Then, the eighth day having arrived, Moses called Aaron and his sons, and those greater by birth from Israel, and he said to Aaron:
2 Ọ gwara Erọn sị, “Site nʼime igwe ehi were nwa oke ehi ị ga-eji chụọ aja mmehie. Werekwa ebule na-enweghị ntụpọ ị ga-eji chụọ aja nsure ọkụ, nke m ga-eche nʼihu Onyenwe anyị.
“Take a calf for sin from the herd, and a ram as a holocaust, both immaculate, and offer them in the sight of the Lord.
3 Ọ gwakwara ụmụ Izrel sị ha, ‘Họrọnụ mkpi a ga-eji chụọ aja mmehie, na nwa ehi, na nwa atụrụ na-enweghị ntụpọ, ndị gbara naanị otu afọ, a ga-eji chụọ aja nsure ọkụ,
And to the sons of Israel, you shall say: ‘Take a he-goat for sin, and a calf as well as a lamb, both one-year-old and without blemish, as a holocaust.
4 na ehi, na ebule a ga-eji chụọ aja udo nʼihu Onyenwe anyị, tinyere mkpụrụ ọka a gwara mmanụ. Nʼihi na taa ka Onyenwe anyị ga-eme ka unu hụ ya anya.’”
Take also an ox and a ram for peace offerings. And immolate them before the Lord, offering with the sacrifice of each one fine wheat flour sprinkled with oil. For today the Lord will appear to you.’”
5 Ha wetara ihe ndị a niile bịa nʼọnụ ụzọ ụlọ nzute dịka Mosis nyere nʼiwu. Ọgbakọ ụmụ Izrel niile bịara nso guzo nʼihu Onyenwe anyị.
And so they brought everything that Moses had ordered before the door of the tabernacle, where, when all the multitude stood together,
6 Mgbe ahụ, Mosis sịrị ha, “Ihe ndị a bụ ihe Onyenwe anyị nyere unu nʼiwu idebe, ka ebube ya si otu a pụta ìhè nʼihu unu.”
Moses said: “This is the word, which the Lord has instructed. Accomplish it, and his glory will appear to you.”
7 Mosis sịrị Erọn, “Bịa nso nʼebe ịchụ aja. Chụọ aja mmehie, na aja nsure ọkụ nke a ga-eji kpuchie mmehie gị na mmehie ndị ahụ niile. Chụọ aja onyinye dịrị ndị ahụ, maka ikpuchiri ha mmehie ha, dịka Onyenwe anyị nyere nʼiwu.”
And he said to Aaron: “Approach toward the altar, and immolate on behalf of your sin. Offer the holocaust, and pray for yourself and for the people. And when you have slain the victim for the people, pray for them, just as the Lord has instructed.”
8 Erọn bịara nso nʼebe ịchụ aja, gbuo nwa ehi ahụ ka ọ bụrụ aja mmehie nke ya.
And immediately Aaron, approaching toward the altar, immolated the calf for his sin.
9 Ụmụ Erọn buteere ya ọbara ehi ahụ. O tinyere mkpịsịaka ya nʼime ọbara ahụ tee ya na mpi dị nʼebe ịchụ aja. Ọ wụrụ ọbara fọdụrụ nʼụkwụ ala ala ebe ịchụ aja ahụ.
And his sons brought its blood to him, and dipping his finger in it, he touched the horns of the altar, and he poured out the remainder at its base.
10 Ọ kpọrọ abụba ya, na akụrụ ya abụọ, na ihe kpuchiri umeju si nʼaja mmehie ahụ ọkụ nʼebe ịchụ aja dịka Onyenwe anyị nyere Mosis iwu.
And the fat, and the little kidneys, and the mesh of the liver, which are for sin, he burned upon the altar, just as the Lord had instructed Moses.
11 Ma anụ ahụ ya, na akpụkpọ ya, ka ọ kpọrọ ọkụ nʼazụ ebe obibi.
Yet truly, the flesh and its skins he burned with fire beyond the camp.
12 Emesịa, o gburu anụ e wetara maka aja nsure ọkụ ahụ. Ụmụ ya ndị ikom nyere ya ọbara anụ ahụ, nke o fesara gburugburu ebe ịchụ aja.
He also immolated the victim of holocaust. And his sons brought its blood to him, which he poured out all around the altar.
13 Ha nyefere ya aja nsure ọkụ ahụ nʼaka nʼotu ha sị bọọ ya, tinyere isi ya. Ọ kpọrọ ihe niile ọkụ nʼebe ịchụ aja.
And when the victim itself was cut into pieces, they brought him the head and each of the limbs, all of which he burned with fire upon the altar,
14 Ọ sachara ihe dị nʼime afọ ya, na ụkwụ ya, kpọọ ha ọkụ, dịka aja nsure ọkụ.
having first washed the intestines and the feet with water.
15 Emesịa, Erọn wetara onyinye nke dị maka ndị mmadụ, o were ewu ahụ bụ maka mmehie ndị mmadụ, gbuo ya, were chụọ aja mmehie, dịka o mere nke mbụ.
And making an offering for the sin of the people, he slew the he-goat. And expiating the altar,
16 Ọ chụkwara aja nsure ọkụ nʼusoro dịka iwu e nyere si dị.
he accomplished the holocaust,
17 O webatakwara aja mkpụrụ ọka ahụ, kporo nke juru ya aka, kpọọ ya ọkụ nʼelu ebe ịchụ aja, tinyekwara aja nsure ọkụ nke ụtụtụ ahụ.
adding to it the sacrifice of the libations, which are to be offered together, and burning them upon the altar, separately from the ceremonies of the morning holocaust.
18 Nʼikpeazụ, o gburu ehi na ebule ahụ, nke bụ aja udo ndị Izrel. Ụmụ Erọn buteere ya ọbara nke o fesara gburugburu ebe ịchụ aja.
He also immolated the ox, as well as the ram, as peace offerings for the people. And his sons brought him the blood, which he poured out upon the altar all around.
19 Ọ chịkọtara abụba niile dị ehi na ebule ndị ahụ nʼahụ, na ọdụdụ ha, na abụba kpuchiri ihe ime ha, ya na akụrụ ha, na abụba kpuchiri umeju ha,
Then the fat of the ox, and the rump of the ram, and the two little kidneys with their fat, and the mesh of the liver,
20 tụkwasị ha nʼobi anụ ndị ahụ, kpọọ ha ọkụ nʼebe ịchụ aja.
they placed upon the breasts. And when the fat had been burned upon the altar,
21 Mgbe ahụ, Erọn fufere, dịka onyinye mfufe, obi anụ ahụ, na apata aka nri ha nʼihu Onyenwe anyị dịka Mosis nyere nʼiwu.
Aaron separated their breasts and the right shoulders, lifting them up in the sight of the Lord, as Moses had instructed.
22 Erọn weliri aka ya elu nʼebe ụmụ Izrel nọ, gọzie ha. Emesịa, mgbe ọ chụchara aja mmehie, na aja nsure ọkụ na aja udo, o sitere nʼebe ịchụ aja ahụ rịdata.
And extending his hands to the people, he blessed them. And so, the victims for sin, and the holocausts, and the peace offerings being completed, he descended.
23 Mosis na Erọn bara nʼime ụlọ nzute. Mgbe ha pụtara, ha gọziri ọha mmadụ ahụ. Mgbe ahụ kwa, ebube Onyenwe anyị pụtara ìhè nye mmadụ niile nʼọgbakọ ahụ.
Then Moses and Aaron entered the tabernacle of the testimony, and afterwards came out and blessed the people. And the glory of the Lord appeared to the entire multitude.
24 Ọkụ sitekwara nʼebe Onyenwe anyị nọ daa, rechapụ aja nsure ọkụ ahụ, na abụba ahụ dị nʼebe ịchụ aja. Mgbe ndị Izrel hụrụ ya, ha tiri mkpu ọṅụ. Daa, kpuo ihu nʼala.
And, behold, a fire from the Lord devoured the holocaust, and the fat which was on the altar. When the crowd had seen this, they praised the Lord, falling on their faces.
