< ULevi 24 >

1 UThixo wathi kuMosi,
Awo Mukama Katonda n’agamba Musa nti,
2 “Laya abantu bako-Israyeli bakulethele amafutha acengekileyo, ahluzwe ema-oliveni, abe ngawokukhanyisa ukuze izibane zihlale zikhanyisa kokuphela.
“Lagira abaana ba Isirayiri bakuleetere amafuta ag’omuzeeyituuni aga zeyituuni amalungi amaka ag’okukozesa mu ttaala ziryoke zaakenga buli kiseera awatali kusalako.
3 Ngaphandle kwekhetheni eligudle umtshokotsho wobufakazi, phakathi kwethente lokuhlangana u-Aroni kumele alinde izibane phambi kukaThixo izikhathi zonke nxa kusihlwa kuze kube sekuseni. Lokhu kuzakuba yisimiso saphakade lakuzizukulwane ezizayo.
Wabweru w’Eggigi ery’Endagaano mu Weema ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu, Alooni w’anaalabiririranga ettabaaza ezo nga zaakira awali Mukama Katonda okuva akawungeezi okutuusa mu makya awatali kusalako. Eryo linaabanga tteeka ery’enkalakkalira ne mu mirembe egigenda okujja.
4 Izibane ezisoluthini lwegolide elicolekileyo phambi kukaThixo kumele zilindwe izikhathi zonke.
Alooni anaalabiriranga ettaala ez’oku kikondo ekya zaabu omuka awali Mukama Katonda nga zaaka awatali kusalako.
5 Thatha ifulawa ecolekileyo wenze izinkwa ezilitshumi lambili usebenzisa okubili kwetshumi kwehefa isinkwa ngasinye.
“Ojja kuddiranga obuwunga bw’eŋŋaano obulungi ofumbe emigaati kkumi n’ebiri ng’okozesa desimoolo bbiri eza efa.
6 Zibeke emizileni emibili, ziyisithupha emzileni munye, phezu kwetafula yegolide elicolekileyo phambi kukaThixo.
Onoogitegekanga mu nnyiriri bbiri nga mu buli lunyiriri mulimu emigaati mukaaga. Onoogiteekanga ku mmeeza eya zaabu omuka awali Mukama.
7 Emzileni ngamunye faka impepha enhle njengengxenye yesikhumbuzo esimela isinkwa njalo kube ngumhlatshelo wokudla onikelwa kuThixo.
Era ku buli lunyiriri onooteekangako obubaane obuka nga bugendera wamu n’emigaati nga kye kijjukizo eky’ekiweebwayo eri Mukama Katonda nga kyokeddwa mu muliro.
8 Isinkwa lesi kumele sibekwe phambi kukaThixo izikhathi zonke, amaSabatha wonke, kusenzelwa abako-Israyeli, kube yisivumelwano esingayikuphela.
Emigaati egyo ginaategekebwanga awali Mukama buli Ssabbiiti awatali kwosa, ng’ekyo kikolebwa ku lw’abaana ba Isirayiri nga ye ndagaano ey’emirembe n’emirembe.
9 Sizakuba ngesika-Aroni lamadodana akhe, abazasidlela endaweni engcwele ngoba siyingxenye engcwele kakhulu yesabelo sabo esifaneleyo somhlatshelo onikelwa kuThixo.”
Emigaati egyo ginaabanga gya Alooni ne batabani be, era banaagiriiranga mu kifo ekitukuvu, kubanga giva ku kiweebwayo ekitukuvu ennyo eri Mukama Katonda nga kyokeddwa mu muliro nga kye kiragiro eky’enkalakkalira.”
10 Kwasekusiba lendodana yomfazi wako-Israyeli, uyise wayengumGibhithe, yasuka yaya ebantwini bako-Israyeli, yasixabana lomuntu wako-Israyeli ezihonqweni.
Awo mutabani w’omukazi Omuyisirayiri naye nga kitaawe Mumisiri n’afuluma n’abeera mu baana ba Isirayiri, naye ne wasitukawo olutalo wakati w’omusajja oyo n’Omuyisirayiri, nga bali mu lusiisira.
11 Indodana yomfazi wako-Israyeli leyo yahlambaza ibizo likaThixo ngesithuko. Ngakho bayiletha kuMosi. (Ibizo likanina lalinguShelomithi, indodakazi kaDibhiri, owesizwe sikaDani.)
Mutabani w’omukazi Omuyisirayiri n’avvoola Erinnya lya Mukama, era n’akolima. Ne bamuleeta eri Musa. Nnyina ye yali Seromisi, muwala wa Dibuli ow’omu kika kya Ddaani.
12 Bayifaka entolongweni ukuba intando kaThixo ize yazakale kuhle kubo.
Ne bamuggalira mu kkomera okutuusa Mukama Katonda lw’anaabategeeza ekinaakolebwa.
13 UThixo wasesithi kuMosi,
Awo Mukama Katonda n’agamba Musa nti,
14 “Umuntu lowo owathukayo mkhupheleni ngaphandle kwezihonqo. Bonke labo abamuzwayo babeke izandla zabo phezu kwekhanda lakhe, ibandla lonke limgongode ngamatshe.
“Eyavvodde mumufulumye ebweru w’olusiisira. Abo bonna abaamuwulidde ng’avvoola bateeke emikono gyabwe ku mutwe gwe; oluvannyuma ekibiina kyonna kiryoke kimukube amayinja.
15 Tshela abako-Israyeli uthi, ‘Loba ngubani othuka uNkulunkulu wakhe, uzakuba lecala.
Tegeeza abaana ba Isirayiri nti omuntu yenna anaakolimiranga Katonda we anaabanga n’obuvunaanyizibwa olw’ekibi ekyo.
16 Loba ngubani othuka ibizo likaThixo uzabulawa. Ibandla lonke kumele limgongode ngamatshe. Loba kungowezizweni kumbe oyinzalo yelizwe lakini angahlambaza ibizo likaThixo kumele abulawe.
Oyo yenna anavvoolanga erinnya lya Mukama Katonda anattibwanga. Ekibiina kyonna kinaamukubanga amayinja. Ne bw’anaabanga omugwira oba Omuyisirayiri, bw’anavvoolanga Erinnya anattibwanga.
17 Obulala umuntu kumele abulawe.
“Anattanga omuntu naye anattibwanga.
18 Obulala isifuyo somunye kumele ahlawule, kube okuphilayo ngokuphilayo.
Omuntu yenna anattanga ensolo ya munne anaagimuliyiranga, ensolo ku nsolo.
19 Olimaza umakhelwane wakhe, loba ngayiphi indlela, kumele kwenziwe lakuye,
Omuntu bw’anaaleetanga akamogo ku munne n’amulumya, ekyo ky’akoze ku munne naye kye kinaamukolwangako:
20 kube yikwephuka ngokwephuka, ilihlo ngelihlo, izinyo ngezinyo. Njengoba elimaze omunye, ngokunjalo laye kumele alinyazwe.
obuvune olw’obuvune, eriiso olw’eriiso, erinnyo olw’erinnyo; nga bw’anaabanga alumizza munne, naye bw’atyo bw’anaalumizibwanga.
21 Obulala inyamazana kumele ayihlawule, kodwa obulala umuntu kumele abulawe.
Omuntu anattanga ensolo ya munne anaagimuliyiranga, n’oyo anattanga omuntu naye waakuttibwanga.
22 Lizakuba lomlayo munye kowezizweni lowakini. Mina nginguThixo uNkulunkulu wenu.’”
Etteeka lye limu lye linaafuganga omugwira era n’Omuyisirayiri. Nze Mukama Katonda wammwe.”
23 Emva kwalokho uMosi wakhuluma kwabako-Israyeli, basebethatha umuntu lowo owayehlambaze uThixo, bamusa ngaphandle kwezihonqo, bamgongoda ngamatshe. Abako-Israyeli benza njengokulaywa kwabo nguThixo.
Bw’atyo Musa n’ategeeza abaana ba Isirayiri, ne bafulumya eyavvoola ebweru w’olusiisira ne bamukuba amayinja n’afa. Abaana ba Isirayiri baakola nga Mukama bwe yalagira Musa.
