Levitikosy 1
1 Aa le kinanji’Iehovà t’i Mosè vaho nisaontsia’e boak’ amy kibohom-pamantañañey ty hoe:
While Moses/I was [standing near the entrance] to the Sacred Tent, Yahweh called to him/me from inside the tent. He said to Moses/me,
2 Misaontsia amo ana’ Israeleo le ano ty hoe: Naho ama’ areo ty hañenga soroñe am’ Iehovà, le añandeso amo hare’ areoo: he amo lia-raikeo ke amo añombeo.
“Tell this to the Israeli people: ‘When any of you brings an offering to Yahweh, bring one of your sheep or goats or cattle.
3 Aa ie hañenga soroñe boak’ am-pirai-trokey, le lahi’e tsy aman-kandra, an-tsatrin-tro’e t’ie hañenga añatrefa’Iehovà an-dalan-kibohom-pamantañañe eo.
‘If what you are offering is a bull that will be completely burned [on the altar], it must not have any defects. You must take it to the entrance to the Sacred Tent, in order that it will be acceptable to Yahweh.
4 Hasampe’e an-doha’ i hisoroñañey o fità’eo, soa te ho rambeseñe ama’e ho fijebańañe aze.
You must lay your hands on the head of the bull. When you do that, Yahweh will accept [its death in your place] to forgive/pardon you for the sins that you have committed.
5 Ho lentae’e añatrefa’Iehovà i baniay; le hendese’ o ana’ i Aharone mpisoroñeo ty lio’e vaho hadasi’ iareo añariary i kitrely an-dalan-kibohom-pamantañañey ty lio’e.
You must slaughter the bull in front of Yahweh. Then Aaron’s sons, who are priests, will bring the blood and sprinkle it against all sides of the altar near the entrance to the Sacred Tent.
6 Le ho holire’e i hisoroñañey vaho ho patepatere’e.
You must remove the skin of the animal and cut the animal into pieces. You must wash the inner parts and the legs of the bull.
7 Le hampipok’ afo amy kitreliy o ana’i Aharone, Mpisoroñeo, vaho handahatse ty hatae amy afoy.
Then Aaron’s sons will put wood on the altar and light a fire.
8 Ho hajarie’ o mpisoroñe, ana’ i Aharoneo, amo hatae añ’ afo ambone’ i kitreliio o tori-henao naho i lohay vaho i safots-ènay;
Then they will arrange the pieces, including the head and the fat, on the burning wood.
9 le ho sasà’e an-drano o aova’eo naho o tombo’eo, naho ho forototoe’ i mpisoroñey irezay ho hatoeñe ambone’ i kitreliy, ho soroñe, enga oroañe añ’ afo, hàñim-pañanintsiñe am’ Iehovà.
Then one of the priests will completely burn all of it on the altar. And the aroma will be pleasing to Yahweh.
10 Aa naho boak’ amo mpirai-liao—ke añondry he ose—ty hisoroñañe, le ho lahi’e tsy aman-kandra ty hengae’e.
‘If you are offering a sheep or a goat, it must be a male without any defect.
11 Ho lentà’e avara’ i kitrely añatrefa’ Iehovày, vaho hadàsi’ o ana’ i Aharone mpisoroñeo añ’ariari’ i kitreliy ty lio’e.
You must slaughter it in front of Yahweh, on the north side of the altar, [and drain all the blood into a bowl]. Then Aaron’s sons will sprinkle the blood against all sides of the altar.
12 Ho lilie’e i henay; vaho halaha’ i mpisoroñey ami’ty hatae amy afo ambone’ i kitreliiy ty loha’e naho ty safo’e,
You must cut the animal into pieces. You must wash the inner parts and the legs of the animal. Then the priests will arrange the pieces, including the head and the fat, on the burning wood.
13 le ho sasà’e rano o ova’eo naho o tombo’eo naho ho fonga engae’ i mpisoroñey, hengae’e an-katoeñe amy kitreliy ho soroñe, enga oroañe añ’ afo, hàñim-pañanintsiñe am’ Iehovà.
Then one of the priests will take all of it and completely burn all of it on the altar. And the aroma as it burns will be pleasing to Yahweh.
14 Aa naho voroñe ty hengae’e ho soroñañe am’ Iehovà; he deho ke ana-boromahilala ty ho banabanae’e.
‘If what you are offering to Yahweh is a bird, you must offer a dove or a young pigeon.
15 Hendese’ i mpisoroñey mb’ amy kitreliy mb’eo, le haola’e i lohay, naho hengae’e an-katoeñe amy kitreliy; vaho hampiorihe’e añ’ila’ i kitreliy o lio’eo.
The priest will take it to the altar and wring/twist off its head. Then he will burn the head on the altar. He will drain out the bird’s blood onto the side of the altar.
16 Hafaha’e ty tsibokò’e naho o volo’eo vaho hahifi’e ami’ty ila atiñana’ i kitreliy mb’amy toen-davenokey.
Then he will remove the bird’s (craw/food-grinding pouch) and what is inside it, and throw it on the east side of the altar, where the ashes are thrown.
17 Ho vorahe’e amo ela’eo fe tsy ho riate’e roe, le hengae’ i mpisoroñey ho hatoeñe amy kitreliy amy hatae ambone’ i afoiy; ho soroñe, enga oroañe añ’afo, hàñim-pañanintsiñe am’ Iehovà.
Then he will grasp the bird’s wings and partially tear the bird open. Then he will burn it completely in the fire on the altar. And the aroma will be pleasing to Yahweh.’
