ULevi 3

1 “‘Nxa umnikelo womuntu ungumnikelo wobudlelwano, enikela ngesifuyo esiduna kumbe esisikazi, esisuka emhlambini, kumele alethe kuThixo isifuyo esingalasici.

And if his oblation be a sacrifice of peace offering, if he offer it of the herd; whether it be a male or female, he shall offer it without blemish before YHWH.

2 Kumele abeke isandla sakhe ekhanda lesifuyo somnikelo, abesesihlabela esangweni lethente lokuhlangana. Ngemva kwalokho, amadodana ka-Aroni angabaphristi, azachela igazi emaceleni wonke e-alithare.

And he shall lay his hand upon the head of his offering, and kill it at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation: and Aaron's sons the priests shall sprinkle the blood upon the altar round about.

3 Emnikelweni wobudlelwano uzaletha umhlatshelo onikelwa kuThixo ngomlilo: idanga lonke elembese ezangaphakathi,

And he shall offer of the sacrifice of the peace offering an offering made by fire unto YHWH; the fat that covereth the inwards, and all the fat that is upon the inwards,

4 izinso zombili lamahwahwa azo aseduzane lesinqe, lamahwahwa aphezu kwesibindi, okufanele kukhutshwe lezinso.

And the two kidneys, and the fat that is on them, which is by the flanks, and the caul above the liver, with the kidneys, it shall he take away.

5 Ngakho amadodana ka-Aroni azakutshisela e-alithareni, phezu komnikelo wokutshiswa ophezu kwenkuni ezibhebhayo njengomnikelo owenziwa ngomlilo, uqhatshi olumnandi kuThixo.

And Aaron's sons shall burn it on the altar upon the burnt sacrifice, which is upon the wood that is on the fire: it is an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto YHWH.

6 Nxa anganikela ngesifuyo esisuka emhlambini wezimvu njengomnikelo wobudlelwano kuThixo, kuzamele anikele ngesiduna kumbe esisikazi esingelasici.

And if his offering for a sacrifice of peace offering unto YHWH be of the flock; male or female, he shall offer it without blemish.

7 Nxa anganikela ngezinyane, kumele alilethe phambi kukaThixo.

If he offer a lamb for his offering, then shall he offer it before YHWH.

8 Kumele abeke isandla sakhe phezu kwekhanda lomnikelo wakhe, asihlabe lesosifuyo phambi kwesango lethente lokuhlangana. Amadodana ka-Aroni azachela igazi laso emaceleni wonke e-alithare.

And he shall lay his hand upon the head of his offering, and kill it before the tabernacle of the congregation: and Aaron's sons shall sprinkle the blood thereof round about upon the altar.

9 Emnikelweni wobudlelwano kuzamele alethe umhlatshelo owenziwa kuThixo ngomlilo; amahwahwa awo, lomsila ononileyo aqunywe eduzane lomgogodla, idanga lonke, lawo wonke amahwahwa embese ezangaphakathi,

And he shall offer of the sacrifice of the peace offering an offering made by fire unto YHWH; the fat thereof, and the whole rump, it shall he take off hard by the backbone; and the fat that covereth the inwards, and all the fat that is upon the inwards,

10 izinso zombili lamahwahwa aseduzane lesinqe lamahwahwa aphezu kwesibindi, okuzakhutshwa ndawonye lezinso.

And the two kidneys, and the fat that is upon them, which is by the flanks, and the caul above the liver, with the kidneys, it shall he take away.

11 Umphristi uzakutshisela e-alithareni njengomhlatshelo wokudla, onikelwa kuThixo.

And the priest shall burn it upon the altar: it is the food of the offering made by fire unto YHWH.

12 Nxa umnikelo wakhe kuyimbuzi, uzayethula phambi kukaThixo.

And if his offering be a goat, then he shall offer it before YHWH.

13 Uzabeka isandla sakhe ekhanda layo, abeseyihlabela phambi kwesango lethente lokuhlangana. Amadodana ka-Aroni azachela igazi layo emaceleni wonke e-alithare.

And he shall lay his hand upon the head of it, and kill it before the tabernacle of the congregation: and the sons of Aaron shall sprinkle the blood thereof upon the altar round about.

14 Kulokho akunikelayo, kuzamele anikele umhlatshelo wokudla kuThixo, idanga lonke lawo wonke amahwahwa embese ezangaphakathi,

And he shall offer thereof his offering, even an offering made by fire unto YHWH; the fat that covereth the inwards, and all the fat that is upon the inwards,

15 izinso zombili, lamahwahwa aseduzane lesinqe, lamahwahwa aphezu kwesibindi okuzakhutshwa ndawonye lezinso.

And the two kidneys, and the fat that is upon them, which is by the flanks, and the caul above the liver, with the kidneys, it shall he take away.

16 Umphristi uzakutshisela e-alithareni njengomhlatshelo wokudla, iphunga elimnandi. Wonke amahwahwa ngakaThixo.

And the priest shall burn them upon the altar: it is the food of the offering made by fire for a sweet savour: all the fat is YHWH 's.

17 Lokhu kuzakuba yisimiso esingapheliyo ezizukulwaneni zenu zonke, kuzozonke izindawo elihlala kuzo. Akumelanga lidle yiloba ngumhlobo bani wamahwahwa kumbe igazi.’”

It shall be a perpetual statute for your generations throughout all your dwellings, that ye eat neither fat nor blood.
