ULevi 15
1 UThixo wathi kuMosi lo-Aroni,
Yehova anawuza Mose ndi Aaroni kuti,
2 “Khulumani labako-Israyeli lithi kubo: ‘Nxa indoda iphuma ubovu, ubovu obuphumayo bungcolile.
“Yankhulani ndi Aisraeli ndipo muwawuze kuti, ‘Mwamuna aliyense akakhala ndi nthenda yotulutsa mafinya ku maliseche ake, zotulukazo ndi zonyansa ndithu.
3 Lanxa buthonta emzimbeni wakhe loba buvalekile, bumenza abe ngongcolileyo. Lokhu yikho okwenza ubovu obuphuma emzimbeni wakhe bumenze abe ngongcolileyo:
Lamulo lokhudza kudziyipitsira ndi zotuluka ku maliseche a munthu nali: Malisechewo akamatulukabe mafinya, kaya aleka, munthuyo adzakhala wodetsedwa:
4 Loba yiwuphi umbheda indoda le ephuma ubovu ezalala kuwo, uzakuba ngongcolileyo, njalo loba kuyini okuzahlala phezu kwawo, kuzakuba ngokungcolileyo.
“‘Bedi lililonse limene munthu wotulutsa mafinyayo agonapo, ndiponso chinthu chilichonse chimene akhalepo chidzakhala chodetsedwa.
5 Loba ngubani othinta umbheda wakhe kufanele agezise izigqoko zakhe, abesegeza ngamanzi, uzakuba ngongcolileyo kuze kube kusihlwa.
Aliyense wokhudza bedi la munthuyo achape zovala zake ndi kusamba. Komabe adzakhala wodetsedwa mpaka madzulo.
6 Loba ngubani ozahlala loba kuphezu kwani lapho okuke kwahlala khona indoda ethonta ubovu, kufanele agezise izigqoko zakhe abesegeza ngamanzi, uzakuba ngongcolileyo kuze kube kusihlwa.
Aliyense wokhala pa chinthu chimene munthu wotulutsa mafinyayo anakhalapo, achape zovala zake ndi kusamba. Komabe adzakhala wodetsedwa mpaka madzulo.
7 Loba ngubani ozathinta lindoda kufanele agezise izigqoko zakhe abesegeza ngamanzi, ngalokho uzakuba ngongcolileyo kuze kube kusihlwa.
“‘Aliyense wokhudza thupi la munthu amene akutulutsa mafinyayo achape zovala zake ndi kusamba. Komabe adzakhala wodetsedwa mpaka madzulo.
8 Nxa indoda ephuma ubovu ingakhafulela omunye ongelabo, lowomuntu kagezise izigqoko zakhe abesegeza ngamanzi, yena uzakuba ngongcolileyo kuze kube kusihlwa.
“‘Munthu wotulutsa mafinya akalavulira malovu munthu wina amene ndi woyeretsedwa, munthu ameneyo achape zovala zake ndi kusamba. Komabe adzakhala wodetsedwa mpaka madzulo.
9 Konke indoda le ehlala kukho igadile kuzakuba ngokungcolileyo,
“‘Chilichonse chimene munthuyo akhalira akakwera pa kavalo chidzakhala chodetsedwa.
10 njalo loba ngubani ozathinta loba yini yezinto ebezingaphansi kwakhe uzakuba ngongcolileyo kuze kube kusihlwa, loba ngubani ozadobha lezozinto, kufanele agezise izigqoko zakhe, abesegeza ngamanzi, njalo uzabe engongcolileyo kuze kube kusihlwa.
Ndipo aliyense wokhudza chimene anakhalira munthuyo adzakhala wodetsedwanso mpaka madzulo. Aliyense wonyamula chinthucho achape zovala zake ndi kusamba. Komabe adzakhala wodetsedwa mpaka madzulo.
11 Loba ngubani ozathintwa yindoda le ephuma ubovu engagezanga izandla zakhe ngamanzi kufanele agezise izigqoko zakhe abesegeza ngamanzi, kodwa uzakuba ngongcolileyo kuze kube kusihlwa.
“‘Munthu wotulutsa mafinyayo akakhudza munthu aliyense asanasambe mʼmanja, wokhudzidwayo achape zovala zake ndi kusamba. Komabe adzakhala wodetsedwa mpaka madzulo.
12 Imbiza yomdaka ezathintwa yile indoda kufanele ibulawe, kuthi konke okwenziwe ngesigodo kumele kuhlanjululwe ngamanzi.
“‘Mʼphika wadothi umene munthu wotulutsa mafinyayo wakhudza awuphwanye, ndipo chiwiya chilichonse chamtengo achitsuke ndi madzi.
13 Nxa indoda isihlanjululwe ekuphumeni kwayo ubovu, kayibale insuku eziyisikhombisa kube yikuhlanjululwa kwayo ngokomkhuba; kufanele igezise izigqoko zayo, ibisigeza ngamanzi amahle andubana ihlambuluke.
“‘Munthu wotulutsa mafinyayo akaona kuti wachira, awerenge masiku asanu ndi awiri akuyeretsedwa kwake kenaka achape zovala zake ndi kusamba pa kasupe, ndipo adzayeretsedwa.
14 Ngosuku lwesificaminwembili kufanele ithathe amajuba amabili, loba amaphuphu enkwilimba amabili ize phambi kukaThixo esangweni lethente lokuhlangana, iwaqhubele umphristi.
Pa tsiku la chisanu ndi chitatu atenge njiwa ziwiri kapena mawunda a nkhunda awiri ndi kubwera nazo pamaso pa Yehova pa khomo pa tenti ya msonkhano ndipo azipereke kwa wansembe.
15 Umphristi uzanikela ngakho; okunye ngokomnikelo wesono, okunye ngokomnikelo wokutshiswa. Ngalokho, uzakwenza ukubuyisana phambi kukaThixo kwaleyondoda ngenxa yomkhuhlane wayo.
Wansembe apereke zimenezo: imodzi ikhale nsembe yopepesera machimo ndipo inayo ikhale ya nsembe yopsereza. Pamenepo ndiye kuti wansembeyo wachita mwambo wopepesera machimo a munthu wotulutsa mafinya uja pamaso pa Yehova.
16 Nxa indoda ivuza ubudoda, kumele igeze umzimba wayo wonke ngamanzi, njalo izakuba ngengcolileyo kuze kube kusihlwa.
“‘Mwamuna akataya pansi mbewu yake yaumuna, asambe thupi lake lonse. Komabe adzakhala wodetsedwa mpaka madzulo.
17 Loba yisiphi isigqoko kumbe isikhumba esilobudoda, kufanele sigeziswe ngamanzi, njalo kuzakuba ngokungcolileyo kuze kube kusihlwa.
Chovala chilichonse kapena chikopa chilichonse pomwe pagwera mbewu yaumunayo achichape, komabe chidzakhala chodetsedwa mpaka madzulo.
18 Nxa indoda ingalala lowesifazane ichithe, kufanele ukuthi bobabili bageze ngamanzi, ngakho bazakuba ngabangcolileyo kuze kube kusihlwa.
Mwamuna akagona ndi mkazi wake nataya mbewu yake yaumuna, onse awiriwo asambe. Komabe adzakhala odetsedwa mpaka madzulo.
19 Nxa owesifazane esemfuleni njengenjayelo, ukungcola kwakhe okubangelwa yikuba semfuleni kwakhe, kuzathatha insuku eziyisikhombisa, ngakho wonke omthintayo uzakuba ngongcolileyo kuze kube kusihlwa.
“‘Mkazi akakhala wosamba ndipo ikakhala kuti ndi nthawi yake yeniyeni yosamba, adzakhala wodetsedwa masiku asanu ndi awiri. Aliyense amene adzamukhudza adzakhala wodetsedwa mpaka madzulo.
20 Yonke into owesifazane lo azalala phezu kwayo ngesikhathi esemfuleni izakuba ngengcolileyo, njalo loba kuyini azahlala phezu kwakho, sekungcolile.
“‘Chilichonse chimene mkaziyo agonera pa nthawi yake yosamba chidzakhala chodetsedwa, ndipo chilichonse chimene adzakhalira chidzakhalanso chodetsedwa.
21 Ozathinta umbheda wakhe kufanele agezise izigqoko zakhe abesegeza umzimba ngamanzi, njalo uzakuba ngongcolileyo kuze kube kusihlwa.
Aliyense wokhudza bedi lake achape zovala zake ndi kusamba, komabe adzakhala wodetsedwa mpaka madzulo.
22 Loba ngubani ozathinta loba kuyini owesifazane lo abehlezi phezu kwakho kufanele agezise izigqoko zakhe, ageze umzimba ngamanzi, njalo uzakuba ngongcolileyo kuze kube kusihlwa.
Aliyense wokhudza chimene wakhalapo achape zovala zake ndi kusamba, komabe adzakhala wodetsedwa mpaka madzulo.
23 Akukhathalekile ukuba kungaba ngumbheda loba enye into nje owesifazane lo abehlezi kukho, umuntu loba engubani angakuthinta, uzakuba ngongcolileyo kuze kube kusihlwa.
Kaya ndi bedi kapena chinthu china chilichonse chimene anakhalapo, ngati munthu wina akhudza chinthucho, munthuyo adzakhala wodetsedwa mpaka madzulo.
24 Nxa indoda ingalala lowesifazane osemfuleni ibe isithinta igazi lomopho wakhe, indoda izakuba ngengcolileyo okwensuku eziyisikhombisa, loba yiwuphi umbheda ezalala kuwo, uzakuba ngongcolileyo.
“‘Mwamuna aliyense akagona naye ndipo magazi osamba kwake ndi kumukhudza, munthuyo adzakhala wodetsedwa masiku asanu ndi awiri, ndipo bedi limene wagonapo lidzakhalanso lodetsedwa.
25 Nxa owesifazane angopha okwensuku ezithile zilandelana kodwa engekho emfuleni, loba esopha okwensuku ezedlula insuku zokopha nxa esemfuleni, uzakuba ngongcolileyo nxa ukopha kungakemi, njengasezinsukwini zakhe esemfuleni.
“‘Mkazi akataya magazi masiku ambiri, wosakhala pa nthawi yake yosamba, kapena akamasambabe kupitirira nthawi yake yosamba, mkaziyo adzakhala wodetsedwa nthawi yonse imene akutaya magazi, monga momwe amakhalira pa masiku ake osamba.
26 Loba yiwuphi umbheda azalala kuwo nxa umopho uqhubeka, uzakuba ngongcolileyo, njengokungcola kombheda wakhe ngesikhathi esemfuleni, njalo konke ahlala phezu kwakho kuzakuba ngokungcolileyo, njengokungcola kwakhe nxa esemfuleni.
Bedi lililonse limene mkaziyo adzagonapo pa masiku onse pamene ali wotaya magazi, ndiponso chilichonse chimene wakhalira chidzakhala chodetsedwa monga mmene chimakhalira chodetsedwa pa nthawi yake yosamba.
27 Loba ngubani ozathinta lezizinto uzakuba ngongcolileyo; kufanele agezise izigqoko zakhe abesegeza ngamanzi, ngalokho uzakuba ngongcolileyo kuze kube kusihlwa.
Aliyense amene adzakhudza zinthu zimenezo adzakhala wodetsedwa ndipo ayenera kuchapa zovala zake ndi kusamba, komabe adzakhala wodetsedwa mpaka madzulo.
28 Nxa esehlanzekile ekopheni kwakhe, kufanele ahlale insuku eziyisikhombisa andubana ahlambuluke ngokomkhuba.
“‘Nthawi yosamba ikatha, mkaziyo awerenge masiku asanu ndi awiri, ndipo masikuwo akatha adzakhala woyeretsedwa.
29 Ngosuku lwesificaminwembili uzathatha amajuba amabili loba amaphuphu enkwilimba amabili akulethe kumphristi esangweni lethente lokuhlangana.
Pa tsiku lachisanu ndi chitatu, mkaziyo atenge njiwa ziwiri kapena mawunda awiri, ndipo abwere nazo kwa wansembe pa khomo la Tenti ya Msonkhano.
30 Umphristi uzanikela okunye kube ngumnikelo wesono, kuthi okunye kube ngumnikelo wokutshiswa. Ngale indlela uzakwenza ukubuyisana kwakhe phambi kukaThixo ngenxa yokungcola kwakhe esopha.
Wansembe apereke imodzi kuti ikhale nsembe yopepesera machimo ndipo inayo ikhale ya nsembe yopsereza. Pamenepo ndiye kuti wansembeyo wachita mwambo wopepesera mkaziyo pamaso pa Yehova chifukwa cha matenda ake wosamba aja.
31 Kufanele wahlukanise abako-Israyeli ezintweni ezibangcolisayo, ukuze bangafeli ekungcoleni kwabo, bangcolise indawo engihlala kuyo, ephakathi kwabo.’”
“‘Choncho muwayeretsa ana a Israeli nʼkudetsedwa kwawo kuti angafe pochita tchimo lowadetsa limene polichita limadetsa malo anga wokhalamo amene ali pakati pawo.’”
32 Le yiyo imithetho eqondene lendoda ephuma ubovu, loba ngubani ongcoliswe yikuphuma ubudoda,
Amenewa ndi malamulo a munthu amene akutuluka mafinya kumaliseche kwake, komanso a munthu aliyense amene wadetsedwa ndi mbewu yaumuna,
33 lowesifazane nxa esemfuleni, lendoda loba owesifazane okuphuma kuye okungcolileyo, njalo lendoda elala lowesifazane ongcolileyo ngokomkhuba.
mkazi wodwala chifukwa cha msambo komanso a mwamuna kapena mkazi amene akutulutsa mafinya kumaliseche kwake ndi mwamuna wogona ndi mkazi amene akusamba.
