ULevi 14
1 UThixo wathi kuMosi,
Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis, sị,
2 “Le yimithetho eqondana lalowo olobulephero ngesikhathi sokuhlanjululwa kwakhe ngokomkhuba, nxa elethwa phambi komphristi.
“Ndị a bụ usoro iwu gbasara onye ọrịa ekpenta nʼoge a na-eme mmemme ịdị ọcha ya, mgbe e dutere ya bịakwute onye nchụaja.
3 Umphristi kaphume ezihonqweni ayemhlola. Nxa umuntu lowo esesilile ebulepherweni,
Onye nchụaja ga-apụ gaa nʼazụ ebe obibi nọdụ nʼebe ahụ lee ya ahụ, ịchọpụta ma ọrịa ekpenta ya ọ laala nʼezie. Ọ bụrụ na ọrịa ya alaala,
4 umphristi uzalaya ukuthi kulethelwe inyoni ezimbili eziphilayo, ezihlambulukileyo, kanye lenkuni zesihlahla somsedari, intambo ebomvu lehisophi ukuze lowo muntu ahlanjululwe.
onye nchụaja ga-enye iwu ka e weta nnụnụ abụọ dị ndụ, na ụfọdụ osisi sida, na eriri ogho uhie, na hisọp, maka onye ahụ a ga-emere mmemme ịdị ọcha.
5 Lapho-ke umphristi uzalaya ukuthi eyinye yalezo nyoni ibulawelwe phezu kwamanzi acengekileyo, asembizeni yomdaka.
Onye nchụaja ga-enye iwu ka e gbuo otu nʼime nnụnụ abụọ ahụ nʼelu mmiri e si nʼọdọ mmiri na-asọ asọ kute nke dị nʼime ite aja.
6 Usezathatha inyoni ephilayo ayigxamuze ndawonye lokhuni lomsedari, lentambo ebomvu lehisophi egazini laleyo nyoni ebulawelwe phezu kwamanzi ahlambulukileyo.
Ọ ga-ewere nnụnụ nke ọzọ dị ndụ, ya na osisi sida ahụ, na ogho uhie ahụ, na hisọp ahụ, denye ha nʼime ọbara nnụnụ ahụ e gburu nʼelu mmiri ahụ.
7 Uzachela lowo ohlanjululwa ubulephero ngalelogazi kasikhombisa, abesesithi usehlambulukile. Abesekhulula inyoni esaphila izihambele egangeni.
Mgbe ahụ, onye nchụaja ga-efe ọbara ahụ ugboro asaa nʼahụ onye ahụ a na-eme ka ọ dị ọcha site nʼọrịa ekpenta. Ọ ga-ekwupụtakwa na a gwọọla onye ahụ. Emesịa, ọ ga-ahapụ nnụnụ ahụ ka o felaa nʼọhịa.
8 Umuntu okufanele ukuthi ahlanjululwe kumele agezise izigqoko zakhe, aphuce zonke inwele zakhe, abesegeza umzimba ngamanzi, ngalokho uzabe esehlambulukile ngokomkhuba. Ngemva kwalokho usengangena ezihonqweni, kodwa kumele ahlale ngaphandle kwethente lakhe okwensuku eziyisikhombisa.
“Onye ahụ e mere ka ọ dị ọcha ga-asacha uwe ya, kpụchaa ntutu isi ya, saakwa ahụ ya. Mgbe ahụ, ọ ga-adị ọcha. Emesịa, ọ ga-esoro ndị mmadụ biri nʼobodo. Ma ọ gaghị abanye nʼụlọ nke aka ya tutu ụbọchị asaa agafee.
9 Ngosuku lwesikhombisa kumele aphuce zonke inwele zakhe, intshiya zakhe kanye lazozonke inwele zakhe. Kufanele agezise izigqoko zakhe, ageze umzimba ngamanzi; ngalokho uzakuba ngohlambulukileyo.
Nʼụbọchị nke asaa, ọ ga-akpụchapụ ntutu isi ya, na afụọnụ ya, na ikuanya ya, na ajị ndị ọzọ dị ya nʼahụ. Ọ ga-asa uwe ya na ahụ ya niile. Mgbe ahụ, a ga-agụ ya nʼonye dị ọcha.
10 Ngosuku lwesificaminwembili kumele alethe amazinyane amabili amaduna lelilodwa elisikazi, wonke elomnyaka owodwa, wonke engelasici, ndawonye lezilinganiso zehefa ezintathu etshumini zefulawa ecolekileyo, evutshwe ngamafutha, kungumnikelo wamabele, kanye lehetshezana lwamafutha.
“Nʼụbọchị nke asatọ, ọ ga-ewere ebule abụọ na-enweghị ntụpọ, na otu nne atụrụ nke na-enweghị ntụpọ gbara otu afọ, ya na iri iko ọka a kwọrọ nke ọma a gwakọtara mmanụ oliv maka aja mkpụrụ ọka, na otu iko mmanụ.
11 Umphristi obikayo ukuthi usehlambulukile lowomuntu nguye omethulayo kanye leminikelo yakhe kuThixo esangweni lethente lokuhlangana.
Onye nchụaja ahụ lere ya ahụ sị na ha dị ọcha, ga-ewere aja ndị a, ha na onye ahụ a na-aga ime ka ọ dị ọcha chee nʼihu Onyenwe anyị nʼọnụ ụzọ ụlọ nzute.
12 Ngemva kwalokho, umphristi kathathe elinye izinyane eliduna anikele ngalo kube ngumnikelo wecala, kanye lehetshezana lwamafutha; uzakuzunguza phambi kukaThixo, kungumnikelo wokuzunguzwa.
“Mgbe ahụ, onye nchụaja ahụ ga-ewere otu nʼime ụmụ ebule ahụ, na otu iko mmanụ chụọ ya dịka onyinye aja ikpe ọmụma. Ọ ga-efufe ha nʼihu Onyenwe anyị dịka aja mfufe.
13 Uzahlaba lelozinyane endaweni engcwele lapho okuhlatshelwa khona iminikelo yesono kanye leminikelo yokutshiswa. Umnikelo wecala ungowomphristi, njengomnikelo wesono; ungcwele kakhulu.
Ọ ga-egbu nwa ebule ahụ nʼakụkụ ebe nsọ ahụ, nʼebe a na-anọ egbu anụ aja mmehie na aja nsure ọkụ. Ọ bụ onye nchụaja ga-ewere anụ aja ikpe ọmụma a, dịka o were nke aja mmehie. Ọ bụ ihe dịkarịsịrị nsọ.
14 Umphristi uzathatha elinye igazi lomnikelo wecala alininde oqwangeni lwendlebe yokunene yalowo ozahlanjululwa, esithupheni sesandla sokunene sakhe.
Onye nchụaja ahụ ga-ewere ụfọdụ nʼime ọbara aja ikpe ọmụma ahụ, tee nʼọnụ ntị aka nri nke onye ahụ a na-eme ka ọ dị ọcha. Ọ ga-etekwa ya nʼisi mkpụrụ aka nke aka nri ya, na nʼelu isi mkpụrụ ụkwụ nke ụkwụ aka nri ya.
15 Umphristi uzathatha amanye amafutha, awathele esandleni sakhe sokhohlo,
Emesịa onye nchụaja ga-awụnyetụ mmanụ oliv ahụ nʼọbụaka nke aka ekpe ya,
16 agxamuze umunwe wakhe wenkomba emafutheni lawo, abesewafafaza phambi kukaThixo kasikhombisa.
ọ ga-arụnye otu mkpịsịaka nri ya nʼime mmanụ dị nʼọbụaka ya, ọ ga-ewere mkpịsịaka ya fesa ụfọdụ nʼime ya ugboro asaa nʼihu Onyenwe anyị.
17 Umphristi kaninde amafutha aseleyo esandleni oqwangeni lwendlebe yokunene yalowo ozahlanjululwa, esithupheni sesandla sokunene lasozwaneni olukhulu lonyawo lolwesokunene, phezu kwegazi lomnikelo wecala.
Onye nchụaja ga-ewere mmanụ ahụ fọdụrụ nʼọbụaka ya tee ya onye ahụ nʼọnụ ntị aka nri nke onye ahụ a na-aga ime ka ọ dị ọcha, na nʼisi mkpụrụ aka nke aka nri ya, na nʼisi mkpụrụ ụkwụ nke aka nri ya, nʼelu ọbara aja ikpe ọmụma ahụ mee.
18 Amafutha lawo aseleyo esandleni somphristi kawagcobe ekhanda lalowo ohlanjululwayo, abesemenzela indlela yokubuyisana phambi kukaThixo.
Ọ ga-ete mmanụ ahụ fọdụrụ nʼaka ya, nʼisi onye ahụ a na-eme ka ọ dị ọcha. Onye nchụaja ga-ekpuchikwara ha mmehie ya nʼihu Onyenwe anyị.
19 Ngemva kwalokho, kalethe umnikelo wesono ecelela ozahlanjululwa indlela yokubuyisana kulokhu kungcola kwakhe. Ngemva kwalokho, umphristi uzenza umnikelo wokutshiswa,
“Mgbe ahụ, onye nchụaja ga-achụ aja mmehie, kpuchiere onye ahụ a ga-eme ka ọ dị ọcha site na-adịghị ọcha ha mmehie ya. Emesịa, onye nchụaja ga-egbu aja nsure ọkụ ahụ,
20 anikele ngawo e-alithareni, kanye lowamabele, amenzele indlela yokubuyisana, ngalokho uzahlanjululwa.
were ya na onyinye mkpụrụ ọka chụọrọ onye ahụ aja, maka ikpuchiri ya mmehie ya. Mgbe ahụ, a ga-agụ onye ahụ nʼonye dị ọcha.
21 Kodwa-ke, nxa engumyanga, engazenelisi lezizinto, kumele athathe izinyane lemvu eliduna libe ngumnikelo wecala ozazunguzwa ukumenzela indlela yokubuyisana, lengxenye eyodwa etshumini yefulawa ecolekileyo ehlanganiswe lamafutha, kungumnikelo wamabele, lehetshezana lwamafutha,
“Ọ bụrụ na ọ bụ ogbenye onye na-enweghị ike iweta ihe ndị a, ha aghaghị iwere otu nwa ebule dịka aja ikpe ọmụma nke a ga-efufe nʼihi aja ikpuchi mmehie ha, Ọ ga-ewetakwa iko ọka a kwọrọ nke ọma asaa maọbụ ihe ọtụtụ efaa a gwara mmanụ oliv dịka aja mkpụrụ ọka, ya na otu iko mmanụ.
22 lamajuba amabili kumbe amaphuphu enkwilimba amabili, lokho angakwanelisa, okunye kungumnikelo wesono kuthi okunye kube ngumnikelo wokutshiswa.
Ọ ga-ewetakwa nduru abụọ maọbụ kpalakwukwu abụọ, nke ọbụla o nwere ike iweta. Otu ga-abụ maka aja mmehie, nke ọzọ ga-abụ maka aja nsure ọkụ.
23 Ngosuku lwesificaminwembili kumele akulethe kumphristi ukuba ahlanjululwe esangweni lethente lokuhlangana phambi kukaThixo.
“Ọ ga-ewere ha nye onye nchụaja nʼọnụ ụzọ ụlọ nzute nʼihu Onyenwe anyị, nʼụbọchị nke asatọ ya, maka ime ka ha dị ọcha.
24 Umphristi kathathe izinyane lemvu libe ngumnikelo wecala, ndawonye lehetshezana lwamafutha, akuzunguze phambi kukaThixo, kube ngumnikelo wokuzunguzwa.
Onye nchụaja ga-ewerekwa nwa atụrụ aja ikpe ọmụma ahụ, ya na otu iko mmanụ oliv ahụ, fufee ha nʼihu ebe ịchụ aja nye Onyenwe anyị.
25 Uzahlaba izinyane lemvu kube ngumnikelo wecala abesethatha elinye alininde oqwangeni lwendlebe yokwesokudla yalowo ozahlanjululwa, esithupheni sesandla sokunene kanye lasozwaneni olukhulu lonyawo lwesandla sokunene.
Ọ ga-egbu nwa atụrụ aja ikpe ọmụma ahụ, were ụfọdụ ọbara ya tee nʼọnụ ntị aka nri onye ahụ a na-aga ime ka ọ dị ọcha, na nʼisi mkpụrụ aka nke aka nri ya, na nʼisi mkpụrụ ụkwụ nke aka nri ya.
26 Umphristi uzachathekela amanye amafutha esandleni sakhe senxele,
Onye nchụaja ahụ ga-awụnye ụfọdụ mmanụ oliv ahụ nʼọbụaka nke aka ekpe ya,
27 besekusithi ngomunwe wakhe wenkomba, owesandla sokunene achele amanye amafutha kasikhombisa phambi kukaThixo.
ọ ga-ewere mkpịsịaka nri ya fesa ụfọdụ mmanụ ahụ nke dị nʼọbụaka ya ugboro asaa nʼihu Onyenwe anyị.
28 Kuthi amanye amafutha asesandleni sakhe awaninde endaweni lezo aninde khona igazi lomnikelo wecala, oqwangeni lwendlebe yokwesokudla yalowo ozahlanjululwa, esithupheni sesandla sokunene kanye lasozwaneni olukhulu lonyawo lwesandla sokunene.
Ọ ga-etekwa ụfọdụ mmanụ ahụ dị nʼaka ya nʼebe ndị ahụ o tere ọbara ikpe ọmụma ahụ, nke bụ nʼọnụ ntị onye ahụ nke a na-eme ka ọ dị ọcha, na nʼisi mkpụrụ aka nke aka nri ya, na nʼisi mkpụrụ ụkwụ nke aka nri ya.
29 Umphristi uzagcoba ikhanda lalowo ohlanjululwayo ngamafutha aseleyo esandleni sakhe, emenzela indlela yokubuyisana phambi kukaThixo.
Mmanụ nke fọdụrụ nʼaka ya ka onye nchụaja ga-ete nʼisi onye ahụ a na-eme ka ọ dị ọcha, ikpuchi mmehie ha nʼihu Onyenwe anyị.
30 Ngakho uzanikela ngamajuba lawayana loba amaphuphu enkwilimba lezo, lokho ayabe ekwenelisile,
Emesịa, ọ ga-eji nduru abụọ ahụ maọbụ kpalakwukwu abụọ ahụ, nke ọbụla o nwere ike iweta, chụọ aja.
31 okunye kungumnikelo wesono, kuthi okunye kube ngumnikelo wokutshiswa, ndawonye lomnikelo wamabele. Ngale indlela, umphristi uzakwenzela ozahlanjululwa indlela yokubuyisana phambi kukaThixo.”
Otu ga-abụ maka aja mmehie, nke ọzọ ga-abụ maka aja nsure ọkụ, ha na aja mkpụrụ ọka. Nʼụzọ dị otu a, onye nchụaja ga-ekpuchiri ya mmehie ya nʼihu Onyenwe anyị, bụ onye ahụ a na-eme ka ọ dị ọcha.”
32 Le yiyo imithetho yokuphathwa kwalabo abalomkhuhlane wobulephero abangenelisi iminikelo yokuhlanjululwa ejayelekileyo.
Ndị a bụ usoro iwu dịrị onye ọbụla e sitere nʼọrịa ekpenta mee ka ọ dị ọcha, onye aka ya na-erughị iweta ihe o kwesiri iweta, bụ nke e ji eme ka ọ dị ọcha.
33 UThixo wathi kuMosi lo-Aroni,
Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis na Erọn okwu sị,
34 “Nxa lingena ezweni laseKhenani, lelo engilinika lona ukuba libe yisabelo senu, besengifaka isikhwekhwe esithelelwanayo endlini kulelolizwe,
“Mgbe unu banyere ala Kenan, bụ ala ahụ m na-enye unu, ọ bụrụ na o nwee ụlọ ọbụla m webatara ọrịa na-efe efe,
35 umnini waleyondlu kufanele ayetshela umphristi athi ‘ngibona okufanana lesikhwekhwe endlini yami?’
onyenwe ụlọ ahụ ga-ejekwuru onye nchụaja sị ya, ‘Ahụla m ihe yiri ọrịa na-efe efe nʼụlọ m.’
36 Umphristi engakayi kuleyondlu ukuyahlola isikhwekhwe kumele akhiphe isiqondiso sokuthi kutshiswe konke okukuleyondlu ukuze kungabi lalutho kuleyondlu oluzathiwa lungcolile. Ngemva kwalokho, umphristi uzangena ahlole leyondlu.
Onye nchụaja ahụ ga-enye iwu ka a kwapụsịa ihe niile dị nʼụlọ ahụ tupu ọ gaa lezie ụlọ ahụ anya, ka ihe niile dị nʼụlọ ahụ ghara ịbụ ihe rụrụ arụ, ma ọ bụrụ na achọpụta ọrịa na-efe efe nʼụlọ ahụ. Mgbe a kwapụtasịrị ihe dị nʼụlọ ahụ, onye nchụaja ga-aga lee ụlọ ahụ.
37 Uzahlola isikhwekhwe emidulini, kuthi nxa ebona ukuthi kulamabala aluhlaza loba abomvana emdulini njalo ebonakala ejulile emdulini,
Ọ ga-ele ntụpọ dị nʼahụ ụlọ ahụ. Ọ bụrụ na ntụpọ ahụ na-acha ahịhịa ndụ ahịhịa ndụ, maọbụ ọbara ọbara, ọ bụrụkwa na ha miri emi karịa aja ụlọ ahụ nʼile anya,
38 umphristi uzaphuma ngomnyango wendlu, awuvale okwensuku eziyisikhombisa.
onye nchụaja ga-esi nʼọnụ ụzọ ụlọ ahụ pụọ, kpọchie ụlọ ahụ ụbọchị asaa.
39 Ngosuku lwesikhombisa, umphristi uzabuyela ayehlola leyondlu. Nxa isikhwekhwe sesigcwele emidulini,
Nʼụbọchị nke asaa, onye nchụaja ga-alọghachi bịa lee ụlọ ahụ ọzọ. Ọ bụrụ na ntụpọ ahụ agbasaala nʼaja ụlọ ahụ,
40 uzakhupha isiqondiso sokuthi amatshe alaleso sikhwekhwe adilizwe, ayephoselwa endaweni engcolileyo ngaphandle kwedolobho.
onye nchụaja ga-enye iwu ka e tida akụkụ aja ụlọ ahụ bufuo ya nʼebe a na-ekpofu ihe rụrụ arụ nʼazụ obodo.
41 Kalaye ukuthi imiduli yonke eyangaphakathi iphalwe, kuthi lokho okuphaliweyo kuyelahlelwa endaweni engcolileyo ngaphandle kwedolobho.
Ọ ga-enyekwa iwu ka a kpụchaa aja ụlọ niile dị nʼime ụlọ ahụ, bufukwaa aja niile a kpụchapụtara nʼebe a na-ekpofu ihe rụrụ arụ nʼazụ obodo.
42 Besebefaka amatshe amatsha esikhundleni salawo, bagudule indlu ngodaka olutsha.
A ga-ebute nkume ọzọ jiri ha dochie ndị ahụ e bupụsịrị. A ga-ejikwa ụrọ ọhụrụ tee ụlọ ahụ ọzọ.
43 Nxa isikhwekhwe sibonakala kutsha kuleyondlu ngemva kokudilizwa kwamatshe lokuphalwa kwemiduli njalo isigudulwe,
“Ma ọ bụrụ na ntụpọ ahụ apụta ọzọ, mgbe e bupụsịrị nkume ndị ahụ, ma mgbe a kpuchasịrị aja ụlọ ma techikwaa ya,
44 umphristi kahambe ayeyihlola, nxa efumana isikhwekhwe sesiqhelile kuleyondlu, kuyabe kuyisikhwekhwe esibulalayo; leyondlu ingcolile.
onye nchụaja ga-abịa lee ya. Ọ bụrụ na ọ hụ na ntụpọ ahụ agbasaala ọzọ, ọ ga-agụ ụlọ ahụ dịka ihe rụrụ arụ, nʼihi na ntụpọ ahụ bụ ọrịa na-efe efe.
45 Kufanele idilizwe, amatshe ayo, izigodo, lodaka lwayo kumele kuyephoselwa endaweni engcolileyo ngaphandle kwedolobho.
Ọ ga-enye iwu ka a kwatuo ụlọ ahụ bufukwaa ihe niile e jiri rụọ ya, nkume niile, osisi niile na ụrọ niile, nʼebe a na-ekpofu ihe rụrụ arụ nʼazụ obodo.
46 Loba ngubani ongena kuleyondlu ngesikhathi isavaliwe uzakuba ngongcolileyo kuze kube kusihlwa.
“Onye ọbụla banyere nʼụlọ ahụ nʼoge e mechiri ya, ga-abụ onye rụrụ arụ ruo nʼoge uhuruchi.
47 Loba ngubani ozalala loba adlele kuleyondlu kufanele agezise izigqoko zakhe.
Onye ọbụla dinara ala maọbụ rie nri nʼime ya, ga-asacha uwe ya.
48 Kodwa umphristi angabuya ezoyihlola afumane ukuthi isikhwekhwe asiqhelanga ngemva kokugudulwa, uzakuthi indlu ihlambulukile, ngoba isikhwekhwe singasekho.
“Ma ọ bụrụ na onye nchụaja abịa hụ na ntụpọ ahụ apụtaghị ọzọ, mgbe e techara ụlọ ahụ ụrọ nke ugboro abụọ, ọ ga-agụ ya nʼụlọ dị ọcha, nʼihi na ọrịa ahụ na-efe efe alaala.
49 Ukuze indlu ibe ngehlanzekileyo, uzathatha inyoni ezimbili kanye lenkuni zesihlahla somsedari, lentambo ezelukiweyo ezibomvu lehisophi.
Ọ ga-ejikwa nnụnụ abụọ, na osisi sida, na ogho uhie, na osisi hisọp mee mmemme ido ihe ọcha.
50 Uzahlaba enye yalezi zinyoni emanzini acengekileyo embizeni yomdaka.
Ọ ga-egbu otu nʼime nnụnụ ndị ahụ nʼelu mmiri e si nʼiyi na-asọ asọ kute, nke dị nʼime ite aja.
51 Abesethatha inkuni zesihlahla somsedari, ihisophi, intambo ebomvu elukiweyo lenyoni ephilayo, akugxamuze egazini lenye ebuleweyo lamanzi acengekileyo, abesechela leyondlu kasikhombisa.
Ọ ga-edenye osisi sida ahụ, na ogho uhie ahụ, na osisi hisọp ahụ, nʼime ọbara nnụnụ ahụ na mmiri ahụ. Ọ ga-efesa ọbara ahụ nʼụlọ ahụ ugboro asaa.
52 Uzayihlanza leyondlu ngegazi lenyoni, amanzi acengekileyo, inyoni ephilayo, inkuni zesihlahla somsedari, ihisophi lentambo ephothiweyo ebomvu.
Ọ bụ ọbara nnụnụ ahụ, na mmiri ahụ, na nnụnụ nke ọzọ ahụ dị ndụ, na osisi sida ahụ na hisọp ahụ, na ogho uhie ahụ ka ọ ga-eji mee ka ụlọ ahụ dị ọcha.
53 Ngemva kwalokho kakhulule inyoni ephilayo emangweni ngaphandle kwedolobho. Ngalindlela uzabe esenze indlela yokubuyisana kuleyondlu, izabe singehlambulukileyo.”
Ọ ga-ahapụ nnụnụ ahụ dị ndụ ka o fepụ felaa nʼọhịa dị nʼazụ obodo. Nke a ga-abụ otu e si kpuchiere ụlọ ahụ mmehie ya. Ọ ga-adịkwa ọcha.”
54 Le yiyo imithetho eqondane lobulephero, ukuluma komzimba,
Ndị a bụ usoro iwu metụtara ọrịa ekpenta, na ọkọ,

maọbụ etuto, maọbụ ntụpọ, maọbụ ọnya.
57 ukuze kubonakale ukuthi ulutho luhlambulukile loba lungcolile. Le yiyo imithetho yobulephero kanye lesikhwekhwe.
Iwu ndị a ga-enye aka ịmata ihe rụrụ arụ maọbụ ihe na-adịghị ọcha. Ndị a bụ usoro iwu metụtara ọrịa ekpenta na ọrịa na-efe efe.
