4 Mose 8
1 Anante Ra Anumzamo'a amanage huno Mosesena asmi'ne,
INkosi yasikhuluma kuMozisi isithi:
2 Amanage hunka Aronina asmio, 7ni'a tavi'ma retro huteno, ruotgema hunefinkama tavima tagintesigeno'a, masa'amo'a ana tavi azota'mofo avuga remsa hugahie.
Tshono kuAroni uthi kuye: Nxa ulumathisa izibane, izibane eziyisikhombisa zizakhanyisa ngaphambili phambi koluthi lwesibane.
3 Ra Anumzamo'ma Mosesema asami'nea kante anteno Aroni'a tavi'ma retro hunte'nea tavira tagintegeno, masa'amo zota'mofo avuga remsa hutre'ne.
UAroni wasesenza njalo; ngaphambili phambi koluthi lwesibane walumathisa izibane zalo, njengokulaya kweNkosi kuMozisi.
4 Tavi'ma rekruhu azotama tro'ma hu'nazana amana hu'naze, hama eri'za golia amasagiza lamu tavimofo zota'a tro nehu'za, azankuna'a tro nehu'za anina'anema troma hunazana, Ra Anumzamo'ma Mosesema asami'nea kante ante'za tro nehu'za, Livae nagara zamazeri otage hu'naze.
Lalo umsebenzi woluthi lwesibane wawungowegolide elikhandiweyo, kuze kube sesidindini salo kuze kuye emalubeni alo lwalukhandiwe; njengesifanekiso iNkosi eyamtshengisa sona uMozisi, walwenza njalo uluthi lwesibane.
5 Ru'ene Ra Anumzamo'a amanage huno Mosesena asmi'ne,
INkosi yasikhuluma kuMozisi isithi:
6 Israeli vahepintira Livae nagara zamavarenka, zamazeri agru huo.
Khupha amaLevi phakathi kwabantwana bakoIsrayeli, uwahlambulule;
7 Hagi zamazeri agruma kagrama hananana anahu hugahane, agru hu'nesia ti erinka ru ani'ani hunezmantesanke'za, maka zamufa zamazokara resanu nehare'za, kukena zamia sese hute'za, zamagra avusese hugahaze.
wenze ngokunjalo kuwo ukuwahlambulula; ufafaze phezu kwawo amanzi okuhlambulula, njalo adlulise impuco emzimbeni wawo wonke, awatshe izigqoko zawo, azihlambulule.
8 Ana'ma hutenagenka huge'za mago bulimakaone witi ofa zami'ne, kanenea flaua masavempi erihavia hu'nesazane ofa nehu'za, mago bulimakao kumi'ma apasezamante ofa hugahaze.
Athathe ijongosi ithole lenkomo, lomnikelo walo wokudla, impuphu ecolekileyo ixubene lamafutha, uthathe lelinye ijongosi ithole lenkomo, libe ngumnikelo wesono.
9 Hagi Mosesega kehuge'za mika'a Livae vahera seli mono nonte etru nehanagenka, maka Israeli vea'ene zamazeri atru hugahane.
Njalo uzasondeza amaLevi phambi kwethente lenhlangano, ubuthanise inhlangano yonke yabantwana bakoIsrayeli.
10 Livae nagara zamavarenka Ra Anumzamo'na navure vuge'za, Israeli vahe'mo'za Livae naga'mokizmi zamagofetu zamaza anteho.
Usondeze amaLevi phambi kweNkosi, njalo abantwana bakoIsrayeli bazabeka izandla zabo phezu kwamaLevi,
11 Aroni'a Israeli vahepinti Livae nagra Ra Anumzamofo avuga aza ante'sga huno amira amira ofama nehiaza huzmantetena, Ra Anumzamo'na eri'zana erigahaze.
loAroni azunguze amaLevi, abe ngumnikelo wokuzunguzwa phambi kweNkosi, evela ebantwaneni bakoIsrayeli, ukuze abe ngasebenza umsebenzi weNkosi.
12 Henka'a Livae naga'mo'za tare bulimakaomofo agenopare zamazana antetesage'za, mago bulimakaona kumi'apase ofa nehu'za, mago bulimakaona kresramna vanage'na Ra Anumzamo'na Livae nagara kumizmifintira mizasezmantegahue.
AmaLevi azabeka-ke izandla zawo enhlokweni yamajongosi; unikele elinye libe ngumnikelo wesono, lelinye libe ngumnikelo wokutshiswa eNkosini, ukuwenzela amaLevi inhlawulo yokuthula.
13 Hagi Livae nagara huge'za Aronine, ne'mofavre naga'ane zamuga oti'nesage'za, amira amira ofama nehazaza hu'za Ra Anumzamo'na ofa hu'za namigahaze.
Njalo uzawamisa amaLevi phambi kukaAroni laphambi kwamadodana akhe, uwazunguze abe ngumnikelo wokuzunguzwa eNkosini.
14 E'ina hunka Israeli vahepintira Livae nagara zamazeri otage hananke'za Nagri vahera manigahaze.
Ngakho uzakwehlukanisa amaLevi uwakhuphe phakathi kwabantwana bakoIsrayeli, ukuthi amaLevi abe ngawami.
15 Hagi anama huzmantetesunka, Livae naga'mo'za seli mono nompina eri'zana erigahazanki, zamazeri agru nehunka, kazana antesga hunka amira amira ofa huzmantegahane.
Lemva kwalokho amaLevi azangena ukukhonza ethenteni lenhlangano. Njalo uzawahlambulula, uwazunguze abe ngumnikelo wokuzunguzwa.
16 Israeli vahepinti'ma pusa ne' mofavrema antesazama onamisaza nona hu'na, Livae nagara maka Nagrani'a zamavare'noe.
Ngoba wona aphiwe lokuphiwa mina ephuma phakathi kwabantwana bakoIsrayeli. Esikhundleni salokho okuvula sonke isizalo, izibulo laye wonke wabantwana bakoIsrayeli, ngizithathele wona.
17 Hagi Isipi vahe'mokizmi zamagonesa ne'mofavrema nezmahe'na, mika'a Israeli vahe'mokizmi zamagonesa mofavrene, zagagafa zimimofo ese anentara Nagri suzane hu'na zamavare otage hu'noe.
Ngoba lonke izibulo phakathi kwabantwana bakoIsrayeli ngelami, phakathi kwabantu laphakathi kwezifuyo. Ngosuku engatshaya ngalo lonke izibulo elizweni leGibhithe ngazingcwelisela wona;
18 Hu'neanagi menina Israeli vahe'mokizmi pusa ne'mofavre nona hu'na, Livae nagara Nagra huhampri'na zamavare'noe.
sengithethe amaLevi esikhundleni sawo wonke amazibulo phakathi kwabantwana bakoIsrayeli.
19 Israeli vahepintira, Livae nagara muse'zane hu'na Aronine, ne'mofavre naga'a seli mono nompi Israeli vahe'mokizmi kumi' apaseza miza sezmante'saza eri'za eneri'za, seli mono nomofo tvaonte'ma Israeli vahe'mo'zama ne-esageno krimo zamazeri haviza huzanku kva krigahaze.
Ngiwanikile amaLevi njengabaphiweyo kuAroni lakumadodana akhe, ephuma phakathi kwabantwana bakoIsrayeli, ukukhonza inkonzo yabantwana bakoIsrayeli ethenteni lenhlangano, lokwenzela abantwana bakoIsrayeli inhlawulo yokuthula, ukuze kungabi lenhlupheko phakathi kwabantwana bakoIsrayeli, nxa abantwana bakoIsrayeli besondela endlini engcwele.
20 Mosese'ene, Aroni'ene mika Israeli vahe krerfamo'zanena Ra Anumzamo'ma Mosese asmi'nea kante ante'za Livae nagara anara huzmantegahaze.
UMozisi loAroni lenhlangano yonke yabantwana bakoIsrayeli basebesenza kumaLevi njengakho konke iNkosi eyakulaya uMozisi mayelana lamaLevi; benza njalo abantwana bakoIsrayeli kuwo.
21 Livae naga'mo'za zamagrazmi zamazeri agru nehu'za, kukena zmia sese hutazageno, Aroni aza ante sga huno Ra Anumzamofonte zamavareno amira amira hu ofa hunezmanteno, kumi apase ofa huzmante'ne.
LamaLevi azihlambulula, ahlamba izembatho zawo; uAroni wasewazunguza aba ngumnikelo wokuzunguzwa phambi kweNkosi; loAroni wawenzela inhlawulo yokuthula ukuwahlambulula.
22 Ana'ma hutege'za Livae vahe'mo'za seli mono nompina, Aronine, ne'mofavre naga'anena zamaza hu'za Ra Anumzamo'ma Mosesema asami'nea kante ante'za eri'zana eri'naze.
Lemva kwalokho amaLevi angena ukwenza inkonzo yawo ethenteni lenhlangano phambi kukaAroni laphambi kwamadodana akhe. Njengalokhu iNkosi yamlaya uMozisi ngamaLevi, benza njalo kuwo.
23 Ra Anumzamo'a amanage huno Mosesena asmi'ne,
INkosi yasikhuluma kuMozisi isithi:
24 Livae naga'mo'za amanahu hugahaze, 25'a kafureti mareri'nesnamo'za, mareri'za seli mono nompina eri'zana erigahaze.
Yilokhu okuqondene lamaLevi: Kusukela koleminyaka engamatshumi amabili lanhlanu langaphezulu azangena ukukhonza inkonzo, enkonzweni yethente lenhlangano.
25 Hianagi 50'a kafuma nehanu'za eri'zampintira vagare'za mago'ene eri'zana e'origahaze.
Njalo kusukela koleminyaka engamatshumi amahlanu azaphuma enkonzweni yenkonzo, angabe esasebenza;
26 Hu'neanagi eri'zazamifinti vagaresu'za nezmafuna amne zamaza hu'za seli mono nompi eri'zana kankamu zamire erigahaze. Hagi mago eri'zana zamagra zamavesitera e'origahaze. Hagi Livae vahe'mo'za amage ante'za eri'za kankamu zamire erigahaze.
kodwa azasiza abazalwane bawo ethenteni lenhlangano ukugcina umlindo, kodwa angasebenzi umsebenzi. Uzakwenza njalo kumaLevi kumfanelo zawo.
