ULevi 17
1 UThixo wathi kuMosi,
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, ʻo pehē,
2 “Tshela u-Aroni lamadodana akhe, labo bonke abako-Israyeli ukuthi: ‘Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo:
Lea kia ʻElone, pea ki hono ngaahi foha, pea ki he fānau kotoa pē ʻa ʻIsileli ʻo pehē kiate kinautolu, Ko eni ʻae meʻa ʻaia kuo fekau ʻe Sihova, ʻo pehē,
3 Loba ngubani owako-Israyeli ozakwenza umhlatshelo ngenkabi, izinyane lemvu loba imbuzi ezihonqweni loba ngaphandle kwazo,
Ko e tangata kotoa pē ʻiate kimoutolu ʻi he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻoku ne tāmateʻi ʻae pulu pē ko e lami, pe ko e kosi, ʻi he ʻapitanga, pe tāmateʻi ia ʻituʻa he ʻapitanga,
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.
Pea ʻikai ʻomi ia ki he matapā ʻoe fale fehikitaki ʻoe fakataha, ke ʻatu ha feilaulau kia Sihova ʻi he ʻao ʻoe fale fehikitaki ʻo Sihova; ʻe tuku ʻae toto ki he tangata ko ia: kuo lingi ʻe ia ʻae toto; pea ʻe motuhi ʻae tangata ko ia mei hono kakai:
5 Lokhu kuzakwenza abako-Israyeli balethe kuThixo imihlatshelo le abayenzela egangeni. Kabayilethe kumphristi, lokhu kuyikuthi, kuThixo, esangweni lethente lokuhlangana njalo banikele njengeminikelo yobudlelwano.
Koeʻuhi ke ʻomi ʻe he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻenau ngaahi feilaulau, ʻaia ʻoku nau ʻatu ʻi he ngoue ʻataʻatā, ʻio, kenau ʻomi ia kia Sihova, ki he matapā ʻoe fale fehikitaki ʻoe fakataha, ki he taulaʻeiki, pea ke ʻatu ia ko e ngaahi feilaulau fakalelei kia Sihova.
6 Umphristi kachele i-alithari likaThixo ngegazi esangweni lethente lokuhlangana, atshise amahwahwa njengephunga elimnandi kuThixo.
Pea ʻe luluku ʻe he taulaʻeiki ʻae toto ki he feilaulauʻanga ʻo Sihova ʻi he matapā ʻoe fale fehikitaki ʻoe fakataha, pea tutu ʻae ngako ko e meʻa namu kakala kia Sihova.
7 Bangabe besanikela loba yiwuphi umnikelo kubonkulunkulu babo bembuzi labo ababaxhwalisayo. Lesi kumele kube yisimiso sabo esingapheliyo lakuzizukulwane ezizayo.’
Pea ʻe ʻikai tenau toe ʻatu ʻenau ngaahi feilaulau ki he ngaahi faʻahikehe, ʻaia naʻa nau holi kovi ki ai. Ko e fekau fai maʻu eni kiate kinautolu ʻo taʻengata ʻi honau ngaahi toʻutangata kotoa pē.
8 Wothi kubo: ‘Loba nguphi owako-Israyeli loba owezizwe ohlezi labo onikela umnikelo wokutshiswa loba umhlatshelo,
Pea te ke pehē kiate kinautolu, Ko e tangata ko ia ʻiate kimoutolu ʻi he fale ʻo ʻIsileli, pe ʻi he muli ʻoku nofo ʻāunofo ʻiate kimoutolu, ʻoku ne ʻatu ha feilaulau tutu pe ha feilaulau,
9 kodwa engawulethi esangweni lethente lokuhlangana ukuba akuhlabele uThixo, lowomuntu kaxotshwe ebantwini bakibo.
Pea ʻoku ʻikai ʻomi ia ki he matapā ʻoe fale fehikitaki ʻoe fakataha, ke ʻatu ia kia Sihova; ko e tangata ko ia ʻe motuhi mei hono kakai.
10 Loba ngubani owako-Israyeli loba owezizwe ohlala phakathi kwabo ozakudla loba yiliphi igazi, ngizamelana laye odla igazi, ngimxotshe phakathi kwabantu bakibo.
Pea ko e tangata kotoa pē ko ia ʻiate kimoutolu ʻi he fale ʻo ʻIsileli, pe ʻi he muli ʻoku ʻāunofo ʻiate kimoutolu, ʻoku kai ʻe ia ha toto: teu sio fakafulofula ki he tangata ko ia ʻoku kai toto, pea motuhi ia mei hono kakai.
11 Ngoba impilo yesidalwa isegazini, njalo ngiliphile ukuthi lenze ukubuyisana kwenu e-alithareni ngalo; kuligazi elenze ukubuyisana empilweni yomuntu.
He ko e moʻui ʻae kakano ko e toto pea kuo u tuku ia kiate kimoutolu ki homou feilaulauʻanga ke fai ʻae fakalelei maʻa homou laumālie; he ko e toto ʻoku ne fai ʻae fakalelei maʻae laumālie.
12 Ngakho ngithi kwabako-Israyeli, “Kakho phakathi kwenu ozakudla igazi, loba owezizwe ohlala phakathi kwenu ozakudla igazi.”
Ko ia naʻaku pehē ai ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻoua naʻa kai toto ʻe ha tokotaha ʻiate kimoutolu, pea ʻoua naʻa kai toto ʻe ha muli ʻe tokotaha ʻoku ʻāunofo ʻiate kimoutolu.
13 Loba ngubani owako-Israyeli loba owezizwe ohlala phakathi kwenu ozingela loba yiphi inyamazana loba inyoni edliwayo, kavuzise igazi aligqibele ngenhlabathi,
Pea ʻilonga ʻae tangata kotoa pē ʻi he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, pe ʻi he muli ʻoku ʻāunofo ʻiate kimoutolu, ʻaia ʻoku tuli pe maʻu ha manu ha manu kapakau ʻoku ngofua ke kai: ko e moʻoni ʻe lingi ʻe ia hono toto, ʻo ʻufiʻufi ʻaki ia ʻae efu.
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.”
He ko e moʻui ia ʻae kakano kotoa pē; ko hono toto ko ʻene moʻui ia; ko ia ne u pehē ai ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻoua naʻa mou kai ʻae toto ʻo ha meʻa moʻui ʻe taha: he ko e toto ko e moʻui ia ʻae kakano kotoa pē; ko ia ʻoku ne kai ia ʻe motuhi ia.
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.
Pea ko ia ʻoku ne kai ʻaia naʻe mate mahaki, pē ko ia kuo haehae ʻe he manu, pe ko ha tokotaha ia ʻo homou fonua pe ko ha muli, ʻe fō ʻe ia hono kofu mo kaukau ia ʻi he vai, pea ʻe taʻemaʻa ia ʻo aʻu ki he efiafi: pea ʻe toki maʻa ia.
16 Kodwa nxa engahlambi izigqoko zakhe lokugeza umzimba wakhe, uzakuba lecala.’”
Pea kapau ʻoku ʻikai fō ia, pe kaukau hono sino; pea ʻe ʻiate ia pe ʻene hia.
