ULevi 17
1 UThixo wathi kuMosi,
Awo Mukama n’agamba Musa nti,
2 “Tshela u-Aroni lamadodana akhe, labo bonke abako-Israyeli ukuthi: ‘Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo:
“Tegeeza Alooni ne batabani be n’abaana ba Isirayiri bonna, obagambe nti, Kino Mukama ky’alagidde:
3 Loba ngubani owako-Israyeli ozakwenza umhlatshelo ngenkabi, izinyane lemvu loba imbuzi ezihonqweni loba ngaphandle kwazo,
Omuntu yenna Omuyisirayiri anaawangayo ekiweebwayo eky’ente, oba endiga ento, oba embuzi, munda mu lusiisira oba ebweru w’olusiisira,
4 esikhundleni sokuyiletha esangweni lethente lokuhlangana, ukuyinikela ukuthi ibe ngumnikelo kuThixo phambi kwethabanikeli likaThixo, lowomuntu uzakuba lecala lokuchitha igazi; usechithe igazi ngakho kumele axotshwe ebantwini bakibo.
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.
5 Lokhu kuzakwenza abako-Israyeli balethe kuThixo imihlatshelo le abayenzela egangeni. Kabayilethe kumphristi, lokhu kuyikuthi, kuThixo, esangweni lethente lokuhlangana njalo banikele njengeminikelo yobudlelwano.
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.
6 Umphristi kachele i-alithari likaThixo ngegazi esangweni lethente lokuhlangana, atshise amahwahwa njengephunga elimnandi kuThixo.
Kabona anaamansiranga omusaayi ku kyoto kya Mukama ku mulyango gw’Eweema ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu, amasavu n’agookya ne muvaamu akaloosa akalungi akasanyusa Mukama Katonda.
7 Bangabe besanikela loba yiwuphi umnikelo kubonkulunkulu babo bembuzi labo ababaxhwalisayo. Lesi kumele kube yisimiso sabo esingapheliyo lakuzizukulwane ezizayo.’
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.
8 Wothi kubo: ‘Loba nguphi owako-Israyeli loba owezizwe ohlezi labo onikela umnikelo wokutshiswa loba umhlatshelo,
“Era bagambe nti, Buli muntu yenna Omuyisirayiri, oba omunnaggwanga yenna abeera mu bo, aliwaayo ekiweebwayo ekyokebwa, oba ekiweebwayo eky’engeri yonna,
9 kodwa engawulethi esangweni lethente lokuhlangana ukuba akuhlabele uThixo, lowomuntu kaxotshwe ebantwini bakibo.
nga takireese ku mulyango gw’Eweema ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu, okukiwaayo eri Mukama Katonda, omuntu oyo anaagobwanga n’agaanibwa okukolagananga ne banne.
10 Loba ngubani owako-Israyeli loba owezizwe ohlala phakathi kwabo ozakudla loba yiliphi igazi, ngizamelana laye odla igazi, ngimxotshe phakathi kwabantu bakibo.
“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.
11 Ngoba impilo yesidalwa isegazini, njalo ngiliphile ukuthi lenze ukubuyisana kwenu e-alithareni ngalo; kuligazi elenze ukubuyisana empilweni yomuntu.
Kubanga obulamu bw’ekitonde buli mu musaayi, ate nkibawadde okubatangiririra ku kyoto; omusaayi gwe gutangiririra obulamu bw’omuntu.
12 Ngakho ngithi kwabako-Israyeli, “Kakho phakathi kwenu ozakudla igazi, loba owezizwe ohlala phakathi kwenu ozakudla igazi.”
Noolwekyo Abayisirayiri mbagamba nti tewabanga n’omu mu mmwe anaalyanga omusaayi, era ne munnaggwanga abeera mu mmwe naye taalyenga musaayi.
13 Loba ngubani owako-Israyeli loba owezizwe ohlala phakathi kwenu ozingela loba yiphi inyamazana loba inyoni edliwayo, kavuzise igazi aligqibele ngenhlabathi,
“Omuyisirayiri yenna, oba omunnaggwanga abeera mu mmwe, bw’anaayigganga ensolo oba ennyonyi nga ya kulya, anaagikenenulangamu omusaayi n’agubikkako ettaka,
14 ngoba impilo yesidalwa isegazini laso. Yikho ngithe kwabako-Israyeli, “Lingabokudla igazi laloba yisiphi isidalwa, ngoba impilo yesidalwa sonke ligazi laso; loba ngubani olidlayo kaxotshwe.”
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.
15 Loba ngubani, kungaba ngumnikazi wendawo loba owezizwe, ozakudla loba kuyini okufunyanwe kufile, loba okubulewe yizinyamazana zeganga, kahlambe izigqoko zakhe kanye lomzimba wakhe ngamanzi, uzakuba ngongcolileyo ngokomkhuba kuze kuhlwe; uzakuba esehlambulukile.
“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.
16 Kodwa nxa engahlambi izigqoko zakhe lokugeza umzimba wakhe, uzakuba lecala.’”
Naye bw’ataayozenga byambalo bye, n’okunaaba n’atanaaba, ye anaabanga yeeretedde obutali bulongoofu bwe okumusigalako.”
