Ekyamateeka Olwokubiri 16
1 Ojjukiranga omwezi ogwa Abibu ng’ogukwatiramu Okuyitako kwa Mukama Katonda wo, kubanga ekiro mu mwezi gwa Abibu, Mukama Katonda wo mwe yakuggyira mu nsi y’e Misiri.
Observe the month of Abib, when thou shalt keep a passover unto Yahweh thy God, —for in the month of Abib, did Yahweh thy God bring thee forth out of Egypt by night:
2 Onooleetanga ekiweebwayo eri Mukama eky’Okuyitako, ng’okiggya mu ggana lyo, ne mu kisibo kyo mu kifo Mukama ky’anaabanga yerondedde nga kye ky’okubeerangamu Erinnya lye.
therefore shalt thou sacrifice a passover unto Yahweh thy God of flock or herd, —in the place which Yahweh shall choose to make a habitation for his name there.
3 Tokiryanga na mugaati omuzimbulukuse. Onoomalanga ennaku musanvu ng’emigaati gy’olya si mizimbulukuse, gye migaati egy’okulaba ennaku, kubanga mu Misiri wavaayo mu bwangu, bw’otyo olyokenga ojjukirenga, mu nnaku zonna ez’obulamu bwo, olunaku lwe wasitulirako ng’ova mu nsi y’e Misiri.
Thou shalt not eat therewith any thing leavened, seven days, shalt thou eat therewith unleavened cakes the bread of humiliation, —for in haste, camest thou forth out of the land of Egypt, that thou mayest remember the day when thou camest forth out of the land of Egypt, all the days of thy life.
4 Tewaabeerengawo asangibwa na kizimbulukusa mu nsi yo yonna okumalanga ennaku musanvu. Ennyama gy’onooteekateekanga, ey’ekiweebwayo, akawungeezi ku lunaku olw’olubereberye teesigalengawo kutuusa nkeera.
And there shall not be seen with thee leaven in any of thy bounds seven days, —neither shall there remain all night of the flesh which thou shalt sacrifice in the evening, on the first day, unto the morning.
5 Tokkirizibwenga kuweerangayo mu bibuga byo Mukama Katonda wo by’akuwa, ekiweebwayo eky’Okuyitako,
Thou mayest not sacrifice the passover, —within any of thine own gates which Yahweh thy God is giving unto thee;
6 wabula onookiweerangayo mu kifo Mukama ky’anaabanga yeerondedde eky’okubeerangamu Erinnya lye. Eyo gy’onooweerangayo Okuyitako akawungeezi ng’enjuba egwa, ng’ojjukiranga olunaku lwe wasitulirako ng’ova mu nsi y’e Misiri.
but in the place which Yahweh thy God shall choose to make a habitation for his name, there, shalt thou sacrifice the passover in the evening, —at the going in of the sun, at the very time thou camest forth out of Egypt.
7 Onoofumbanga okuyitako okwo n’okuliira mu kifo Mukama Katonda wo kye yeerondera. Enkeera onoddangayo mu weema yo.
Therefore shalt thou cook and eat it in the place which Yahweh thy God, shall choose, —and shalt turn away in the morning, and go thy way unto thy tents.
8 Onoolyanga emigaati egitali mizimbulukuse okumala ennaku mukaaga, kyokka ku lunaku olw’omusanvu kunaabanga kukuŋŋaana mu maaso ga Mukama Katonda wo okumusinza; tolukolerangako mulimu gwonna.
Six days, shalt thou eat unleavened cakes, —and, on the seventh day, shall be a closing feast, unto Yahweh thy God, thou shalt do no work.
9 Onoobalanga wiiki musanvu okuva ku kiseera lw’onookungulanga emmere ey’empeke okuva mu nnimiro yo omulundi ogusooka.
Seven weeks, shalt thou count unto thee, —from the beginning of thrusting in the sickle into the standing corn, shalt thou begin to count, seven weeks.
10 Kale nno onookwatanga Embaga ya Wiiki ezo ng’oleetera Mukama Katonda wo ekiweebwayo ekya kyeyagalire ekinaavanga mu ngalo zo, ng’emikisa bwe ginaabeeranga Mukama Katonda wo gy’anaabanga akuwadde.
So shalt thou keep the festival of weeks unto Yahweh thy God, in the measure of the freewill offering of thy hand which thou shalt give, —as Yahweh thy God shall bless thee.
11 Onoosanyukiranga mu maaso ga Mukama Katonda wo mu kifo ky’anaabanga yeerondedde okubeerangamu Erinnya lye. Onoosanyukanga ne batabani bo, ne bawala bo, n’abaweereza bo abasajja, n’abaweereza bo abakazi, n’Omuleevi anaabeeranga mu bibuga byo, ne munnaggwanga ne mulekwa, ne nnamwandu abanaabeeranga mu mmwe.
So shalt thou rejoice before Yahweh thy God—thou, and thy son and thy daughter and thy servant and thy handmaid, and the Levite who is within thy gates, and the sojourner, and the fatherless and the widow who are in thy midst, —in the place which Yahweh thy God shall choose, to make a habitation for his name there.
12 Ojjukiranga nga bwe wali omuddu mu nsi ey’e Misiri, osaana ogonderenga ebiragiro ebyo n’obwegendereza.
So shalt thou remember that a servant, thou wast in Egypt, —and shalt observe and do these statutes.
13 Onookwatanga Embaga ey’Ensiisira okumala ennaku musanvu ng’omaze okuyingiza ebyamakungula byo okubiggya mu gguuliro, ne wayini ng’omuggye mu ssogolero lyo.
The festival of booths, shalt thou keep for thyself seven days, —when thou hast gathered in out of thy threshing-floor and out of thy wine-vat.
14 Onoojaguzanga ng’oli ku Mbaga eyo, ggwe, ne mutabani wo, ne muwala wo, n’omuweereza wo omusajja, n’omuweereza wo omukazi, n’Omuleevi, n’omunnaggwanga, ne mulekwa, ne nnamwandu, abanaabeeranga mu bibuga byo.
And thou shalt rejoice in thy festival, —thou, and thy son and thy daughter, and thy servant and thy handmaid, and the Levite and the sojourner, and the fatherless and the widow, who are within thy gates.
15 Onoomalanga ennaku musanvu ng’ojaguza ku Mbaga eyo mu maaso ga Mukama Katonda wo mu kifo Mukama ky’aneeronderanga. Kubanga Mukama Katonda wo anaakuwanga omukisa mu bibala byonna eby’amakungula go, ne mu mirimu gyo gyonna gy’onootuusangako engalo zo, essanyu lyo bwe lityo linaabanga lijjuvu.
Seven days, shalt thou keep festival unto Yahweh thy God, in the place which Yahweh shall choose, —for Yahweh thy God, will bless thee, in all thine increase and in all the work of thy hands, —therefore shalt thou do nothing but, rejoice.
16 Abasajja bonna mu mmwe banaakuŋŋaananga emirundi esatu buli mwaka, mu maaso ga Mukama Katonda wo, mu kifo ky’aneeronderanga, ku Mbaga y’Emigaati Egitali Mizimbulukuse, ne ku Mbaga eya Wiiki Omusanvu, ne ku Mbaga ey’Ensiisira. Tewaabengawo n’omu anajjanga engalo enjereere awali Mukama.
Three times in the year, shall each one of thy males see the face of Yahweh thy God, in the place which he shall choose, at the festival of unleavened cakes and at the festival of weeks and at the festival of booths, —and none shall see the face of Yahweh empty-handed:
17 Buli omu anaaleetanga ekirabo kye ng’obusobozi bwe bwe bunaabanga, nga bwesigamizibwa ku mikisa Mukama Katonda wo gy’anaabanga akuwadde.
every man according as his hand can give, —according to the blessing of Yahweh thy God, which he hath bestowed upon thee.
18 Onoolondanga abalamuzi n’abakulembeze mu bantu, mu bika byo byonna, mu bibuga byo byonna, Mukama Katonda wo by’akuwa, baweerezenga abantu nga babasalirawo ensonga zaabwe nga tebasaliriza.
Judges and officers, shalt thou appoint thee in all thy gates, which Yahweh thy God is giving unto thee, by thy tribes, —and they shall judge the people, with righteous judgment,
19 Obeeranga n’obwenkanya, era tobanga na kyekubiira ng’osala emisango. Tolyanga nguzi, kubanga enguzi eziba amaaso g’omugezi era ebuzaabuza ebigambo by’abatuukirivu.
Thou shalt not wrest judgment, thou shalt not take note of faces, —nor shalt thou accept a bribe, for the bribe, blindeth the eyes of wise men, and perverteth the words of righteous men.
20 Ogobereranga bwenkanya bwokka olyoke olye ensi Mukama Katonda wo gy’akuwa.
What is right, what is right, shalt thou pursue, —that thou mayest live and possess the land, which, Yahweh thy God, is giving unto thee.
21 Tosimbanga miti gya kusinza okumpi n’ekyoto ky’onoozimbiranga Mukama Katonda wo;
Thou shalt not plant thee, as a sacred stem, any tree, —near unto the altar of Yahweh thy God which thou shalt make for thyself;
22 wadde okuyimirizangawo empagi ey’amayinja ey’okusinzanga; kubanga ebyo byonna Mukama Katonda wo tabyagala abikyayira ddala.
neither shalt thou set thee up a pillar, —which Yahweh thy God, doth hate.
