Ọnụọgụgụ 18

1 Onyenwe anyị gwara Erọn sị, “Gị, na ụmụ gị ndị ikom gị, na ezinaụlọ nna gị ga-ebu ahụhụ ajọ omume metụtara ebe nsọ ahụ. Gị na ụmụ gị ndị ikom naanị ka ọ dị nʼaka ịsa ajụjụ ihe ọjọọ ọbụla banyere ọrụ nchụaja.

And Jehovah saith unto Aaron, 'Thou, and thy sons, and the house of thy father with thee, do bear the iniquity of the sanctuary; and thou, and thy sons with thee, do bear the iniquity of your priesthood;

2 Site nʼebo unu kpọbata ụmụnna gị ndị Livayị ka ha sonyere gị ma nyere gị aka mgbe gị na ụmụ gị ndị ikom na-eje ozi nʼụlọ nzute Ihe Ama.

and also thy brethren, the tribe of Levi, the tribe of thy father, bring near with thee, and they are joined unto thee, and serve thee, even thou and thy sons with thee, before the tent of the testimony.

3 Ha ga-anọ gị nʼokpuru ije ozi niile nʼụlọ nzute, ma ha agaghị abịaru nso ngwongwo e ji chọọ ebe nsọ ahụ mma, maọbụ nʼebe ịchụ aja. Ma ọ bụghị otu a, gị na ha ga-anwụ.

'And they have kept thy charge, and the charge of all the tent; only, unto the vessels of the sanctuary and unto the altar they do not come near, and they die not, either they or you;

4 Ha ka ọ dịrị, isonye gị nʼilekọta ụlọ ikwu ahụ, ya bụ, ihe niile metụtara ụlọ ikwu anya. O nweghị onye ọzọ nke ga-abịa nso ebe ị nọ.

and they have been joined unto thee, and have kept the charge of the tent of meeting, for all the service of the tent; and a stranger doth not come near unto you;

5 “Gị ka ọ dịrị ilekọta ihe niile metụtara ebe nsọ ahụ, na ebe ịchụ aja ahụ, ka oke iwe Onyenwe anyị ghara ịdakwasị onye ọbụla nʼala Izrel ọzọ.

and ye have kept the charge of the sanctuary, and the charge of the altar, and there is no more wrath against the sons of Israel.

6 Mụ onwe m ahọpụtala ụmụnna gị ndị Livayị site nʼetiti ndị Izrel, were ha nye gị dịka onyinye, ka ha bụrụ ndị e doro nsọ nye Onyenwe anyị maka ịrụ ọrụ ụlọ nzute.

'And I, lo, I have taken your brethren the Levites from the midst of the sons of Israel; to you a gift they are given by Jehovah, to do the service of the tent of meeting;

7 Ma ọ bụ naanị gị, na ụmụ gị ndị ikom, ga-aga ozi dịka ndị nchụaja, ozi metụtara ebe ịchụ aja, na ihe niile dị nʼazụ akwa mgbochi ahụ. Ana m enye gị ọrụ nchụaja dịka onyinye. Onye ọbụla ọzọ bịara nso ebe nsọ ahụ ga-anwụ.”

and thou, and thy sons with thee, do keep your priesthood, for everything of the altar, and within the vail, and ye have served; a service of gift I make your priesthood; and the stranger who is coming near is put to death.'

8 Mgbe ahụ, Onyenwe anyị gwara Erọn okwu sị ya, “Mụ onwe m emeela gị onye nlekọta onyinye niile a na-eche nʼihu m, onyinye niile dị nsọ nke ụmụ Izrel wetara m ka m na-enye gị na ụmụ gị ndị ikom dịka oke ruuru unu site nʼụkpụrụ ebighị ebi.

And Jehovah speaketh unto Aaron: 'And I, lo, I have given to thee the charge of My heave-offerings, of all the hallowed things of the sons of Israel — to thee I have given them for the anointing, and to thy sons, by a statute age-during.

9 Unu ga-enwere akụkụ aja ahụ kachasị nsọ nke a na-edopụ iche site nʼọkụ. Site nʼonyinye niile nke a na-ewetara m, bụ onyinye mkpụrụ ọka maọbụ aja mmehie maọbụ aja ikpe ọmụma, ndị ahụ a na-edopụ iche dịka ihe kachasị nsọ, ha ga-abụ oke gị na ụmụ gị ndị ikom.

This is thine of the most holy things, from the fire: all their offering, to all their present, and to all their sin-offering, and to all their guilt-offering, which they give back to Me, is most holy to thee, and to thy sons;

10 A ga-eri ha dịka ihe dịkarịrị nsọ. Nwa nwoke ọbụla ga-eri ya. Unu ga-agụ ha dịka ihe dị nsọ.

in the holy of holies thou dost eat it; every male doth eat it; holy it is to thee.

11 “Nke a bụkwa nke gị: Ihe ọbụla nke ewezugara site nʼonyinye nke aja mfufe niile nke ndị Izrel wetara. Mụ onwe m na-ewere nke a nye gị na ụmụ gị ndị ikom, na ụmụ gị ndị inyom dịka oke unu nʼụkpụrụ ebighị ebi. Onye ọbụla nke dooro onwe ya ọcha nʼezinaụlọ nwere ike iri ya.

'And this [is] thine: the heave-offering of their gift, to all the wave-offerings of the sons of Israel, to thee I have given them, and to thy sons, and to thy daughters with thee, by a statute age-during; every clean one in thy house doth eat it;

12 “Ana m enye gị mmanụ oliv nke kachasị mma, na mmanya ọhụrụ nke kachasị mma na ọka, bụ mkpụrụ mbụ nke owuwe ihe ubi ha na-ewetara Onyenwe anyị.

all the best of the oil, and all the best of the new wine, and wheat — their first -[fruits] which they give to Jehovah — to thee I have given them.

13 Mkpụrụ mbụ nke ihe niile dị nʼala nke ha na-ewebatara Onyenwe anyị, ga-abụ nke gị. Onye ọbụla nke dị ọcha nʼezinaụlọ unu nwere ike iso rie ya.

'The first-fruits of all that [is] in their land, which they bring in to Jehovah, are thine; every clean one in thy house doth eat it;

14 “Ihe niile e doro nsọ nʼala Izrel niile nye Onyenwe anyị bụ nke gị.

every devoted thing in Israel is thine,

15 Ihe niile e bụ ụzọ mụọ, ma mmadụ ma anụ ụlọ, nke e nyere Onyenwe anyị dịka onyinye, bụ nke gị. Ma unu aghaghị ịgbara ụmụ ndị ikom niile e bụ ụzọ mụọ, na ụmụ oke anụ ụlọ niile e bụ ụzọ mụọ ndị na-adịghị ọcha.

every one opening a womb of all flesh which they bring near to Jehovah, among man and among beast, is thine; only, thou dost certainly ransom the first-born of man, and the firstling of the unclean beast thou dost ransom.

16 Mgbe ha dị otu ọnwa, a ga-eji shekel ọlaọcha ise, nʼusoro shekel ebe nsọ, nke bụ iri ihe ọtụtụ gera abụọ gbapụta ha.

'And their ransomed ones from a son of a month, thou dost ransom with thy valuation, of silver, five shekels, by the shekel of the sanctuary, twenty gerahs it [is].

17 “Ma a gaghị agbara nwa ehi mbụ, maọbụ nwa atụrụ mbụ maọbụ nwa ewu mbụ. Ha dị nsọ. Fesa ọbara ha nʼelu ebe ịchụ aja ahụ, ma kpọọ abụba ha ọkụ dịka onyinye e nyere site nʼọkụ, nke na-esi isi ụtọ nye Onyenwe anyị.

'Only, the firstling of a cow, or the firstling of a sheep, or the firstling of a goat, thou dost not ransom, holy they [are]: their blood thou dost sprinkle on the altar, and of their fat thou makest perfume, a fire-offering of sweet fragrance to Jehovah,

18 Ozu anụ ndị a niile e gburu ga-abụ nke gị, dịka obi anụ na apata ụkwụ aka nri anụ nke aja mfufe a na-eche nʼihu Onyenwe anyị nʼebe ịchụ aja si bụrụ nke gị.

and their flesh is thine, as the breast of the wave-offering, and as the right leg, it is thine;

19 Ihe ọbụla e dopụrụ iche site nʼonyinye nsọ niile ụmụ Izrel chere nʼihu Onyenwe anyị ka m na-enye gị na ụmụ gị ndị ikom, na ụmụ gị ndị inyom dịka oke ruuru unu nʼụkpụrụ ebighị ebi. Ọ bụ ọgbụgba ndụ nnu ebighị ebi nʼihu Onyenwe anyị nye gị na ụmụ ụmụ gị.”

all the heave-offerings of the holy things which the sons of Israel lift up to Jehovah I have given to thee and to thy sons, and to thy daughters with thee, by a statute age-during, a covenant of salt, age-during it [is] before Jehovah, to thee and to thy seed with thee.'

20 Onyenwe anyị gwara Erọn okwu sị ya, “Unu agaghị enwe ihe nketa nke ala, a gaghị ekenyekwa unu ala ọbụla nʼala Izrel niile. Nʼihi na mụ onwe m bụ oke na ihe nketa unu nwere nʼetiti ụmụ Izrel.

And Jehovah saith unto Aaron, 'In their land thou dost not inherit, and a portion thou hast not in their midst: I [am] thy portion, and thine inheritance in the midst of the sons of Israel;

21 “Enyela m ndị Livayị, onyinye otu ụzọ nʼụzọ iri ahụ ụmụ Izrel niile na-akwụbatara m. Nke a bụ ihe nketa ha nʼihi ọrụ ha na-arụ nʼụlọ nzute.

and to the sons of Levi, lo, I have given all the tenth in Israel for inheritance in exchange for their service which they are serving — the service of the tent of meeting.

22 Site ugbu a gaa nʼihu, o nweghị onye Izrel ọbụla kwesiri ịbịa nso ụlọ nzute ahụ, ka ha ghara iwetara onwe ha ikpe ọmụma, mmehie na ọnwụ.

'And the sons of Israel come no more near unto the tent of meeting, to bear sin, to die,

23 Ọ bụ naanị ụmụ Livayị ga-arụ ọrụ nʼụlọ nzute ahụ. Ha ka ọ dịrị ibu ahụhụ ajọ omume ọbụla banyere ejezighị ozi nke ụlọ nzute. Ụkpụrụ a ga-adị ebighị ebi ruo ọgbọ niile dị nʼihu. Ndị Livayị agaghị enwe ihe nketa nke aka ha nʼetiti ụmụ Izrel.

and the Levites have done the service of the tent of meeting, and they — they bear their iniquity; a statute age-during to your generations, that in the midst of the sons of Israel they have no inheritance;

24 Kama, enyela m ndị Livayị onyinye otu ụzọ nʼime ụzọ iri ahụ niile ndị Izrel na-ewetara Onyenwe anyị ka ọ bụrụ ihe nketa ha. Ọ bụ nke a mere m ji kwuo sị, ‘Ha agaghị enweta ihe nketa nʼetiti ụmụ Izrel.’”

but the tithe of the sons of Israel which they lift up to Jehovah, a heave-offering, I have given to the Levites for inheritance; therefore I have said of them, In the midst of the sons of Israel they have no inheritance.'

25 Onyenwe anyị gwakwara Mosis okwu sị,

And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,

26 “Gwa ndị Livayị okwu sị, ‘Mgbe unu si nʼaka ụmụ Izrel nata onyinye otu ụzọ nʼime ụzọ iri ahụ m nyere unu dịka ihe nketa, unu aghaghị isite nʼonyinye ahụ nye otu ụzọ nʼime ụzọ iri dịka onyinye nye Onyenwe anyị.

'And unto the Levites thou dost speak; and thou hast said unto them, When ye take from the sons of Israel the tithe which I have given to you from them, for your inheritance, then ye have lifted up from it the heave-offering of Jehovah, a tithe of the tithe;

27 A ga-agụ onyinye unu wetara dịka ọ bụ onyinye ọka unu si nʼebe ịzọcha ọka weta, maọbụ dịka mmanya unu si nʼebe ịzọcha mmanya weta.

and your heave-offering hath been reckoned to you as corn from the threshing-floor, and as fulness from the wine-vat;

28 Nʼụzọ dị otu a, unu onwe unu ga-eche onyinye unu nʼihu Onyenwe anyị site nʼonyinye otu ụzọ nʼime ụzọ iri unu si nʼaka ụmụ Izrel nata. Site nʼonyinye ndị a unu natara, unu ga-enye Erọn onye nchụaja onyinye ahụ ruuru Onyenwe anyị.

so ye do lift up — ye also — the heave-offering of Jehovah from all your tithes which ye receive from the sons of Israel; and ye have given from it the heave-offering of Jehovah to Aaron the priest;

29 Onyinye unu ga-enye dịka nke ruuru Onyenwe anyị ga-abụ akụkụ onyinye ndị ahụ kachasị mma, na ndị kachasị ịdị nsọ.’

out of all your gifts ye do lift up the whole heave-offering of Jehovah; out of all its fat, — its hallowed part — out of it.

30 “Gwa ndị Livayị okwu sị ha, ‘Mgbe unu wetara akụkụ onyinye ndị ahụ kachasị mma, a ga-agụnyere unu ya dịka a ga-asị na ọ bụ onyinye unu si nʼebe ịzọcha ọka, na nʼebe ịzọcha mmanya vaịnị unu weta.

'And thou hast said unto them, In your lifting up its fat out of it, then it hath been reckoned to the Levites, as increase of a threshing-floor, and as increase of a wine-vat;

31 Unu na ezinaụlọ unu nwere ike iri ndị fọdụrụ nʼụlọ unu, maọbụ nʼebe ọbụla masịrị unu, nʼihi na ha bụ ụgwọ ọrụ unu nʼihi ozi niile unu jere nʼụlọ nzute.

and ye have eaten it in every place, ye and your households, for it [is] your hire in exchange for your service in the tent of meeting;

32 Ikpe ọmụma agaghị adịrị unu mgbe unu na-eri ya ma ọ bụrụ na unu chere onyinye ndị ahụ kachasị mma nʼihu Onyenwe anyị. Ma kpachapụnụ anya hụ na unu e merụghị onyinye ndị a dị nsọ ụmụ Izrel webatara. Ọ bụrụ na unu emee nke a, unu ga-anwụ.’”

and ye bear no sin for it, in your lifting up its fat out of it, and the holy things of the sons of Israel ye do not pollute, and ye die not.'
