1 Mukama Katonda n’agamba Musa nti,
Yahweh also said to Moses/me,
2 “Tegeeza Alooni ne batabani be bassengamu ekitiibwa ebiweebwayo abaana ba Isirayiri bye bandeetera, ebyawuliddwa, bwe batyo balemenga okuvumisa erinnya lyange. Nze Mukama Katonda.
“Tell Aaron and his sons to greatly respect the sacred offerings that the Israeli people bring to me; by doing that you will respect me [MTY], Yahweh.
3 Era bagambe nti, Omuntu yenna ow’omu zadde lyabwe mu mirembe gyonna eginajjanga giddiriragana bw’ataabenga mulongoofu, naye n’asemberera ebiweebwayo ebyawuliddwa ebitukuvu, abaana ba Isirayiri bye banaabanga baleese eri Mukama Katonda, omuntu oyo anaagoberwanga ddala n’ava mu maaso gange. Nze Mukama Katonda.
“Tell them that for all future time, if any of their descendants comes near to the sacred offerings that the Israeli people dedicate to me while he is unfit to work for me, that person will no longer be allowed to work for me. I, Yahweh, [am commanding this].
4 Omuntu yenna ow’omu zadde lya Alooni alina obulwadde obukwata oba alwadde ekikulukuto taalyenga ku biweebwayo ebitukuvu okutuusa ng’afuuse omulongoofu. Omuntu yenna taabenga mulongoofu bw’anaakwatanga ku kintu kyonna ekitali kirongoofu ekivudde ku kukolagana n’omusajja eyavuddemu amazzi g’obusajja, oba olw’okukomako ku mulambo,
“If any descendant of Aaron has a contagious skin disease or a discharge from his sexual organs, he is not allowed to eat any of the sacred offerings until he is cured. He will also be unfit for his work if he touches anything which has become unacceptable to me because it has touched a corpse, or if he touches anyone who as an emission of semen,
5 oba okukwata ku kyekulula ekiyinza okumufuula atali mulongoofu, oba okukoma ku muntu ayinza okumusiiga obutali bulongoofu, oba engeri yonna ey’obutali bulongoofu bw’efa yenkana.
or if he touches anything that crawls on the ground, or if he touches any person who causes him to be unfit for his work.
6 Omuntu ng’oyo taabenga mulongoofu okutuusa akawungeezi. Taalyenga ku biweebwayo ebitukuvu wabula ng’amaze okunaaba yenna mu mazzi.
Any priest who touches such things must bathe, and he must not touch anyone else until that evening.
7 Enjuba bw’eneebanga egudde anaabeeranga mulongoofu; n’oluvannyuma anaalyanga ku biweebwayo ebitukuvu ebyo, kubanga ye mmere ye.
After the sun sets, he will be permitted to eat some of the sacred offerings that are for him to eat.
8 Taalyenga ku kintu kyonna ekinaabanga kifudde obufi, oba ekinaabanga kitaaguddwataaguddwa ebisolo, kubanga kinaamufuulanga atali mulongoofu. Nze Mukama.
He must not eat anything that is found dead or that has been killed by wild animals, because if he did that, he would be unfit to work for me. I, Yahweh [am commanding those things].
9 Bwe batyo bakabona kibagwanira okukuumanga ebiragiro byange, balemenga okwereetako omusango ne bafa olw’okubigayaaliriranga. Nze Mukama Katonda abatukuza.
“The priests must obey my commandments in order that they will not become guilty and die as a result of (despising/not obeying) them.
10 “Omuntu yenna atali wa mu lulyo lwa kabona, ne bw’anaabanga omugenyi we, oba omupakasi we, taalyenga ku biweebwayo ebyo ebitukuvu.
“Anyone who is not a member of a priest’s family is not permitted to eat any of a sacred offering, and no one who is visiting the priest or whom the priest has hired is permitted to eat it.
11 Naye kabona bw’aneeguliranga omuddu n’ensimbi, oba omuddu bw’anaazaalirwanga mu nnyumba ya kabona, omuddu oyo anaalyanga ku mmere eyo.
But if a priest buys a slave, or if a slave is born in his house, that slave is permitted to eat such food.
12 Omwana owoobuwala owa kabona bw’anaafumbirwanga omusajja atali kabona, talyenga ku biweebwayo ebyo ebitukuvu.
If a priest’s daughter marries a man who is not a priest, she no longer is permitted to eat the sacred food.
13 Naye singa muwala wa kabona afuuka nnamwandu, oba singa ayawukanira ddala ne bba, kyokka nga talina mwana, n’akomawo okubeeranga mu nnyumba ya kitaawe nga bwe yakolanga ng’akyali muvubuka, anaalyanga ku mmere ya kitaawe. Omuntu yenna atakwatibwako mizizo egyo taalyenga ku mmere eyo.
But if a priest’s daughter who has no children becomes a widow or becomes divorced, if she returns to her father’s house to live there like she did when she was young, she may eat the same food that her father eats. But no other person is permitted to eat any of it.
14 Era omuntu bw’anaalyanga ku kiweebwayo ekitukuvu nga tagenderedde, anaaleetanga ekitundu kimu kyakutaano eky’ekiweebwayo ekyo, n’akigatta ku kiweebwayo ekyo, kyonna n’akikwasa kabona.
“If anyone who is not permitted to eat a sacred offering eats it without realizing that it is sacred, he must pay the priest for the offering, and pay him an extra one-fifth of its value.
15 Bakabona tebavumisanga bintu bitukuvu abaana ba Isirayiri bye banaawangayo eri Mukama,
When the priests bring offerings to me, the sacred offerings that the Israeli people bring to them, they must not treat those offerings as though they are not sacred
16 nga babakkiriza okulyanga ku biweebwayo byabwe ebitukuvu, bwe batyo ne babateekesaako omusango ogunaabaweesanga ekibonerezo. Nze Mukama Katonda abatukuza.”
by allowing those who are not priests to eat any of those offerings. If they did that, they would become guilty and must make a payment. I am Yahweh, the one who causes those offerings to be sacred.”
17 Awo Mukama n’agamba Musa nti,
Yahweh also said to Moses/me,
18 “Tegeeza Alooni ne batabani be n’abaana ba Isirayiri bonna, obagambe nti, Omuntu yenna ow’omu nnyumba ya Isirayiri omu ku mmwe, oba omunnaggwanga abeera mu Isirayiri, bw’anaaleeteranga Mukama Katonda ekirabo eky’ekiweebwayo ekyokebwa okutuukiriza obweyamo bwe, oba ekiweebwayo olw’okweyagalira,
“Speak to Aaron and his sons and to all the Israeli people and tell them that I command this: ‘If any of you Israelis or foreigners who live in Israel brings to me an animal that will be completely burned [on the altar], either as a result of a solemn promise that you made to me or to be an offering that is given voluntarily,
19 kinaateekwanga okubeera sseddume ey’ente oba ey’endiga, oba ey’embuzi etaliiko kamogo, ekirabo ekyo kiryokenga kikkirizibwe.
it must be an animal that has no defects, in order that it will be accepted by me.
20 Temuwangayo kintu kyonna ekiriko akamogo kubanga tekikkirizibwenga.
Do not bring any animals that have defects, because I will not accept them as an offering from you.
21 Omuntu yenna bw’anaaleetanga ekiweebwayo eri Mukama Katonda olw’emirembe, oba okutuukiriza obweyamo, oba ekiweebwayo olw’okweyagalira, ng’akiggya mu kiraalo oba mu kisibo, okukkirizibwa kinaabeeranga ekituukiridde nga tekiriiko kamogo.
[Similarly], when someone brings from his cattle or sheep or goats an offering to maintain fellowship with me, either to fulfill a promise that he made to me or to be a voluntary offering, in order that I will accept it, it must have no defects [DOU] or blemishes.
22 Temuwangayo eri Mukama Katonda ensolo enzibe y’amaaso, oba eriko obuvune, oba ennema oba egongobadde, oba ezimbyezimbye ku mubiri, oba eriko amabwa agakulukuta. Ezo temuziwangayo ku kyoto eri Mukama Katonda ng’ekiweebwayo ekyokebwa.
Do not offer to me animals that are blind or injured or maimed/crippled, or any animal that has warts or a festering sore [DOU].
23 Naye ente oba endiga ng’eriko ekitundu kyayo ekisukkiridde obuwanvu oba ekisukkiridde obumpi eneeyinzanga okuleetebwa ng’ekiweebwayo eky’okweyagalira, naye tekkirizibwenga ng’ekiweebwayo olw’okutuukiriza obweyamo.
You may present to me to be a voluntary offering an ox or a sheep that is injured or stunted, but it will not be accepted to fulfill a promise made to me.
24 Mukama Katonda temumuleeteranga ekiweebwayo eky’ensolo erina enjagi ezaanuubulwa, oba ezaabetentebwa, oba ezaayuzibwa, oba ezaasalibwa. Ekyo temukikolanga mu ggwanga lyammwe,
You must not offer to me animals whose testicles are bruised or crushed or torn or cut. You must not injure the testicles of any animal in your land,
25 wadde okukkirizanga ng’ensolo ezo bannamawanga bazibatonedde ne muziwaayo ng’ekiweebwayo eri Katonda wammwe. Kubanga nnyonoonefu mu mubiri era ziriko obukyamu.”
and you must not accept such animals that are sold/given to you by a foreigner. You must not offer them to me as a sacrifice for me. Such animals will not be accepted by me, because they are deformed or have defects.’”
26 Awo Mukama Katonda n’agamba Musa nti,
Yahweh also said to Moses/me,
27 “Ente, oba endiga, oba embuzi bw’eneezaalibwanga eneesigalanga ne nnyina waayo okumala ennaku musanvu. Okuva ku lunaku olw’omunaana n’okweyongerayo ennekkirizibwanga bw’eneeweebwangayo eri Mukama Katonda ng’ekiweebwayo ekyokebwa mu muliro.
“When a calf or lamb or goat is born, it must remain with its mother for seven days. After that, it will be acceptable as an offering to me that will be burned.
28 Ente oba endiga temugittanga na mwana gwayo ku lunaku lwe lumu.
Do not slaughter a cow or a sheep and its baby on the same day.
29 Bwe muwangayo eri Mukama Katonda ekiweebwayo olw’okwebaza, mukiwengayo mu ngeri ennungi eneekisobozesanga okukkirizibwa.
“Then you sacrifice an animal to thank [me for what I have done], sacrifice it in a way that is acceptable to me.
30 Kinaalibwanga ku lunaku olwo lwennyini, temukifissangawo n’akatono okutuusa enkeera. Nze Mukama Katonda.
The meat must be eaten on that day; do not leave any of it until the next morning. I, Yahweh, [am the one who am commanding this].
31 “Bwe mutyo mukwatenga amateeka gange era mugagonderenga. Nze Mukama Katonda.
“Obey all my commands [DOU]. I, Yahweh, [am commanding them];
32 Temuvumisanga linnya lyange. Abaana ba Isirayiri kibagwanira okunzisangamu ekitiibwa nga Nze mutukuvu. Nze Mukama Katonda abatukuza mmwe,
do not dishonor me [MTY] [by disobeying them]. You Israeli people must acknowledge that I, Yahweh, am holy, and I am the one who causes you to be holy.
33 era Nze nabaggya mu nsi y’e Misiri mbeerenga Katonda wammwe. Nze Mukama Katonda.”
And I am the one who brought you out of Egypt in order to show that that I, Yahweh, am [and will always be] your God.”
