< Ebyabaleevi 17 >
1 Awo Mukama n’agamba Musa nti,
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
2 “Tegeeza Alooni ne batabani be n’abaana ba Isirayiri bonna, obagambe nti, Kino Mukama ky’alagidde:
Speak to Aaron and to his sons, and to all the children of Israel, and thou shalt say to them, This is the word which the Lord has commanded, saying,
3 Omuntu yenna Omuyisirayiri anaawangayo ekiweebwayo eky’ente, oba endiga ento, oba embuzi, munda mu lusiisira oba ebweru w’olusiisira,
Every man of the children of Israel, or of the strangers abiding among you, who shall kill a calf, or a sheep, or a goat in the camp, or who shall kill it out of the camp,
4 nga tagireese ku mulyango gw’Eweema ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu, okugiwaayo ng’ekirabo ekiweebwayo eri Mukama Katonda mu kisasi ky’Eweema ya Mukama; omuntu oyo anaabanga azzizza omusango ogw’okuyiwa omusaayi; olwokubanga ayiye omusaayi, anaagobwanga n’agaanibwa okukolagananga ne banne.
and shall not bring it to the door of the tabernacle of witness, so as to sacrifice it for a whole-burnt-offering or peace-offering to the Lord to be acceptable for a sweet-smelling savour: and whosoever shall slay it without, and shall not bring it to the door of the tabernacle of witness, so as to offer it as a gift to the Lord before the tabernacle of the Lord; blood shall be imputed to that man, he has shed blood; that soul shall be cut off from his people.
5 Ekyo kiri bwe kityo abaana ba Isirayiri balyoke balekeraawo okuweerangayo ebiweebwayo byabwe ebweru mu nnimiro, naye babireetenga awali Mukama Katonda. Kibagwanira okubireetanga eri Mukama babikwasenga kabona ku mulyango gw’Eweema ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu, ne biryoka bittibwa nga bye biweebwayo eri Mukama olw’emirembe.
That the children of Israel may offer their sacrifices, all that they shall slay in the fields, and bring them to the Lord unto the doors of the tabernacle of witness to the priest, and they shall sacrifice them as a peace-offering to the Lord.
6 Kabona anaamansiranga omusaayi ku kyoto kya Mukama ku mulyango gw’Eweema ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu, amasavu n’agookya ne muvaamu akaloosa akalungi akasanyusa Mukama Katonda.
And the priest shall pour the blood on the altar round about before the Lord by the doors of the tabernacle of witness, and shall offer the fat for a sweet-smelling savour to the Lord.
7 Tebasaana kwongera kuwangayo biweebwayo byabwe eri bakatonda be beekoledde mu kifaananyi ky’embuzi, be bakola nabyo eby’obwamalaaya. Eryo linaabanga tteeka lyabwe lya lubeerera n’okuyita mu mirembe egigenda okuddawo.
And they shall no longer offer their sacrifices to vain [gods] after which they go a whoring; it shall be a perpetual statute to you for your generations.
8 “Era bagambe nti, Buli muntu yenna Omuyisirayiri, oba omunnaggwanga yenna abeera mu bo, aliwaayo ekiweebwayo ekyokebwa, oba ekiweebwayo eky’engeri yonna,
And thou shalt say to them, Whatever man of the children of Israel, or of the sons of the proselytes abiding among you, shall offer a whole-burnt-offering or a sacrifice,
9 nga takireese ku mulyango gw’Eweema ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu, okukiwaayo eri Mukama Katonda, omuntu oyo anaagobwanga n’agaanibwa okukolagananga ne banne.
and shall not bring it to the door of the tabernacle of witness to sacrifice it to the Lord, that man shall be destroyed from among his people.
10 “Omuntu yenna Omuyisirayiri oba ow’omu bannamawanga ababeera mu Isirayiri bw’anaalyanga omusaayi ogw’engeri yonna, nnaamunyiigiranga oyo anaalyanga omusaayi, era nnaamugobanga ne mugaana okukolagananga ne banne.
And whatever man of the children of Israel, or of the strangers abiding among you, shall eat any blood, I will even set my face against that soul that eats blood, and will destroy it from its people.
11 Kubanga obulamu bw’ekitonde buli mu musaayi, ate nkibawadde okubatangiririra ku kyoto; omusaayi gwe gutangiririra obulamu bw’omuntu.
For the life of flesh is its blood, and I have given it to you on the altar to make atonement for your souls; for its blood shall make atonement for the soul.
12 Noolwekyo Abayisirayiri mbagamba nti tewabanga n’omu mu mmwe anaalyanga omusaayi, era ne munnaggwanga abeera mu mmwe naye taalyenga musaayi.
Therefore I said to the children of Israel, No soul of you shall eat blood, and the stranger that abides among you shall not eat blood.
13 “Omuyisirayiri yenna, oba omunnaggwanga abeera mu mmwe, bw’anaayigganga ensolo oba ennyonyi nga ya kulya, anaagikenenulangamu omusaayi n’agubikkako ettaka,
And whatever man of the children of Israel, or of the strangers abiding among you shall take any animal in hunting, beast, or bird, which is eaten, then shall he pour out the blood, and cover it in the dust.
14 kubanga obulamu bwa buli kitonde gwe musaayi gwakyo. Abayisirayiri kyenvudde mbagamba nti temulyanga musaayi gwa kitonde eky’engeri yonna, kubanga obulamu bwa buli kitonde gwe musaayi gwakyo, omuntu yenna anaagulyanga anaagobwanga n’agaanibwa okukolagana ne banne.
For the blood of all flesh is its life; and I said to the children of Israel, Ye shall not eat the blood of any flesh, for the life of all flesh is its blood: every one that eats it shall be destroyed.
15 “Omuntu yenna omuzaaliranwa oba omunnaggwanga anaalyanga ekintu kyonna ekinaabanga kisangiddwa nga kifu, oba nga kitaaguddwataaguddwa ensolo enkambwe, anaayozanga ebyambalo bye, n’anaaba mu mazzi, era anaabeeranga atali mulongoofu okutuusa akawungeezi; oluvannyuma anaabeeranga mulongoofu.
And every soul which eats that which has died of itself, or is taken of beasts, either among the natives or among the strangers, shall wash his garments, and bathe himself in water, and shall be unclean until evening: then shall he be clean.
16 Naye bw’ataayozenga byambalo bye, n’okunaaba n’atanaaba, ye anaabanga yeeretedde obutali bulongoofu bwe okumusigalako.”
But if he do not wash his garments, and do not bathe his body in water, then shall he bear his iniquity.
