ULevi 4
1 UThixo wathi kuMosi,
Adonai spoke to Moses [Drawn out], saying,
2 “Tshela abantu bako-Israyeli ukuthi: ‘Nxa umuntu esona kodwa engoni ngabomo, njalo esenza konke okwalelwa yimilayo kaThixo,
“Speak to the children of Israel [God prevails], saying, ‘If anyone does sin ·err (the standard goal)· that is an unintentional mistake sin ·error· against any of the mitzvot ·instructions· that Adonai has ordered not to be done, if he does any one of them,
3 Nxa umphristi ogcotshiweyo angona, besekuletha icala ebantwini, kumele alethe kuThixo ijongosi elingelasici njengomnikelo wesono ngenxa yesono ayabe esenzile.
then if the anointed priest sins ·errs (the standard goal)· so as to bring trespass guilt on the people, then let him offer for his habitual sin ·missing the mark·, which he has sinned ·deviated (from the standard goal)·, a young bull without defect to Adonai for a habitual sin ·miss the mark· offering.
4 Kalethe inkunzi esangweni lethente lokuhlangana, phambi kukaThixo. Uzabeka isandla sakhe ekhanda layo, abeseyihlaba phambi kukaThixo.
He shall bring the bull to the door of the Tent of Meeting before Adonai; and he shall lay his hand on the head of the bull, and kill the bull before Adonai.
5 Umphristi ogcotshiweyo uzathatha elinye igazi lenkunzi alise ethenteni lokuhlangana.
The anointed priest shall take some of the blood of the bull, and bring it to the Tent of Meeting.
6 Kagxamuze umunwe wakhe egazini, abesechela elinye lakhona kasikhombisa phambi kukaThixo, phambi kwekhetheni lendlu engcwele.
The priest shall dip his finger in the blood, and sprinkle some of the blood seven times before Adonai, before the veil of the sanctuary.
7 Umphristi uzafaka elinye igazi empondweni ze-alithare lempepha elephunga elimnandi eliphambi kukaThixo ethenteni lokuhlangana. Igazi lenkunzi eliseleyo uzalithela phansi kwe-alithari lomnikelo wokutshiswa, esangweni lethente lokuhlangana.
The priest shall put some of the blood on the horns of the altar of sweet incense before Adonai, which is in the Tent of Meeting; and he shall pour out all of rest of the blood of the bull at the base of the altar of burnt offering, which is at the door of the Tent of Meeting.
8 Kumele akhuphe wonke amahwahwa enkunzi yomnikelo wesono, idanga lonke lawo wonke amahwahwa embese ezangaphakathi.
He shall take all the fat of the bull of the habitual sin ·miss the mark· offering off of it; the fat that covers the innards, and all the fat that is on the innards,
9 Izinso zombili, lamahwahwa azo aseduzane lesinqe, lamahwahwa aphezu kwesibindi kuzakhutshwa ndawonye lezinso,
and the two kidneys, and the fat that is on them, which is by the loins, and the cover on the liver, with the kidneys, he shall take away,
10 njengalokho okwenziwa nxa ihwahwa likhutshwa enkabini eyabe ingumnikelo wobudlelwano. Umphristi uzakutshisela e-alithareni lomnikelo wokutshiswa.
as it is taken off of the bull of the sacrifice of peace offerings. The priest shall burn them on the altar of burnt offering.
11 Kodwa isikhumba senkunzi kanye lenyama yayo yonke, inhloko, amangqina, ezangaphakathi lamathumbu,
The bull’s skin, all its meat, with its head, and with its legs, its innards, and its dung,
12 okutsho ingxenye yonke yenkunzi, kumele akukhuphele phandle kwezihonqo endaweni ehlanzekileyo ngokomkhuba, lapho okuchithelwa khona umlotha, abesekutshisela emlilweni wenkuni oyabe usenqumbini yomlotha.
he shall carry the whole bull outside of the camp to a clean place, where the ashes are poured out, and burn it on wood with fire. Where the ashes are poured out, it shall be burned.
13 Nxa uzulu wonke wako-Israyeli angona, engoni ngabomo, abesesenza konke okwalelwa yimilayo kaThixo, lanxa uzulu lowo engazilutho ngodaba lolu, ulecala.
“‘If the whole congregation of Israel [God prevails] is led astray, intoxicated, unintentional sin ·error· and you fail to observe, and the thing is hidden from the eyes of the assembly, and they have done something against any the mitzvot ·instructions· of Adonai concerning things which should not be done, they are condemned guilty.
14 Nxa bangavele bazi ngesono abasenzileyo, ibandla kumele lilethe inkunzi eliguqa njengomnikelo wesono, liyethule phambi kwethente lokuhlangana.
When the habitual sin ·missing the mark· in which they have sinned ·deviated (from the standard goal)· is known, then the assembly shall offer a young bull for a habitual sin ·missing the mark· offering, and bring it before the Tent of Meeting.
15 Abadala bakuleyondawo bazabeka izandla zabo ekhanda lenkunzi phambi kukaThixo, njalo inkunzi izahlatshelwa phambi kukaThixo.
The elders of the congregation shall lay their hands on the head of the bull before Adonai; and the bull shall be killed before Adonai.
16 Umphristi ogcotshiweyo uzathatha elinye igazi lenkunzi angene lalo ethenteni lokuhlangana.
The anointed priest shall bring of the blood of the bull to the Tent of Meeting:
17 Uzacwilisa umunwe wakhe egazini, abeselichela phambi kukaThixo kasikhombisa phambi kwekhetheni.
and the priest shall dip his finger in the blood, and sprinkle it seven times before Adonai, before the veil.
18 Kaninde elinye igazi empondweni ze-alithare eliphambi kukaThixo ethenteni lokuhlangana. Igazi eliseleyo uzalithela phansi kwe-alithari lomnikelo wokutshiswa, esangweni lethente lokuhlangana.
He shall put some of the blood on the horns of the altar which is before Adonai, that is in the Tent of Meeting; and the rest of the blood he shall pour out at the base of the altar of burnt offering, which is at the door of the Tent of Meeting.
19 Kakhuphe wonke amahwahwa abesewatshisela e-alithareni,
All its fat he shall take from it, and burn it on the altar.
20 abesesenza enkunzini le lokho akwenza enkunzini yomnikelo wesono. Ngalokho umphristi uzabenzela indlela yokubuyisana phakathi kwabo, njalo bazathethelelwa.
Thus shall he do with the bull; as he did with the bull of the habitual sin ·miss the mark· offering, so shall he do with this; and the priest shall make atonement for them, and they shall be forgiven.
21 Kakhuphele inkunzi phandle kwezihonqo, abeseyitshisa njengalokho akwenza inkunzi yakuqala. Lo ngumnikelo wesono okazulu wonke.
He shall carry the bull outside the camp, and burn it as he burned the first bull. It is the habitual sin ·miss the mark· offering for the assembly.
22 Nxa umkhokheli angona engakunxwanelanga enze okwaliwa yimilayo kaThixo uNkulunkulu, ulecala.
“‘When a ruler sins ·errs (the standard goal)· that is an unintentional mistake sin ·error· against any the mitzvot ·instructions· of Adonai concerning things which should not be done, he is condemned guilty.
23 Nxa angatshelwa ngesono asenzileyo kumele alethe umnikelo wempongo engelasici.
If his habitual sin ·missing the mark·, in which he has sinned ·deviated (from the standard goal)·, is made known to him, he shall bring as his offering a goat, a male without defect.
24 Kabeke isandla sakhe ekhanda lembuzi abeseyihlabela lapho okuhlatshelwa khona umnikelo wokutshiswa phambi kukaThixo. Kungumnikelo wesono.
He shall lay his hand on the head of the goat, and kill it in the place where they kill the burnt offering before Adonai. It is a habitual sin ·miss the mark· offering.
25 Umphristi uzathatha elinye igazi lomnikelo wesono abeselininda empondweni ze-alithari lomnikelo wokutshiswa abesethela elinye lonke igazi phansi kwe-alithari.
The priest shall take some of the blood of the habitual sin ·miss the mark· offering with his finger, and put it on the horns of the altar of burnt offering. He shall pour out the rest of its blood at the base of the altar of burnt offering.
26 Uzatshisela wonke amahwahwa e-alithareni njengalokhu akwenza amahwahwa omnikelo wobudlelwano. Ngale indlela umphristi uzakwenza indlela yokubuyisana ngesono somuntu abesethethelelwa.
All its fat he shall burn on the altar, like the fat of the sacrifice of peace offerings; and the priest shall make atonement for him concerning his habitual sin ·missing the mark·, and he will be forgiven.
27 Nxa omunye umuntu phakathi kwendawo angona engakunxwanelanga ukona, enze okwaliwa yimilayo kaThixo, uyabe elecala.
“‘If anyone of the common people sins ·errs (the standard goal)· that is an unintentional mistake sin ·error·, and they have done something against any the mitzvot ·instructions· of Adonai concerning things which should not be done, they are condemned guilty.
28 Nxa angatshelwa ngesono ayabe esenzile, kumele alethe umnikelo wesono sakhe, umnikelo wembuzi ensikazi engelasici.
If his habitual sin ·missing the mark·, which he has sinned ·deviated (from the standard goal)·, is made known to him, then he shall bring for his offering a goat, a female without defect, for his habitual sin ·missing the mark· which he has sinned ·deviated (from the standard goal)·.
29 Kabeke isandla sakhe ekhanda lomnikelo wesono, abesewuhlabela endaweni yomnikelo wokutshiswa.
He shall lay his hand on the head of the habitual sin ·miss the mark· offering, and kill the habitual sin ·miss the mark· offering in the place of burnt offering.
30 Umphristi kumele athathe elinye igazi ngomunwe wakhe, abeselininda empondweni ze-alithare lomnikelo wokutshiswa, abesethela elinye eliseleyo phansi kwe-alithari.
The priest shall take some of its blood with his finger, and put it on the horns of the altar of burnt offering; and the rest of its blood he shall pour out at the base of the altar.
31 Uzakhupha amahwahwa wonke njengalokhu okwenziwa emnikelweni wobudlelwano, njalo umphristi uzawutshisela e-alithareni njengoqhatshi olulephunga elimnandi kuThixo. Ngaleyondlela, umphristi uzamenzela indlela yokubuyisana, abesethethelelwa.
All its fat he shall take away, like the fat is taken away from off of the sacrifice of peace offerings; and the priest shall burn it on the altar for a pleasant aroma to Adonai; and the priest shall make atonement for him, and he will be forgiven.
32 Nxa angaletha imvu njengomnikelo wesono, kumele alethe ensikazi engelasici.
“‘If he brings a lamb as his offering for a habitual sin ·missing the mark· offering, he shall bring a female without defect.
33 Kumele abeke isandla sakhe ekhanda layo, abeseyihlaba njengomnikelo wesono endaweni lapho okuhlatshelwa khona umnikelo wokutshiswa.
He shall lay his hand on the head of the habitual sin ·miss the mark· offering, and kill it for a habitual sin ·miss the mark· offering in the place where they kill the burnt offering.
34 Emva kwalokho, umphristi uzathatha elinye igazi lomnikelo wesono ngomunwe, alininde empondweni ze-alithare lomnikelo wokutshiswa, abesethela elinye igazi eliseleyo ngaphansi kwe-alithari.
The priest shall take some of the blood of the habitual sin ·miss the mark· offering with his finger, and put it on the horns of the altar of burnt offering; and all the rest of its blood he shall pour out at the base of the altar.
35 Bazakhupha wonke amahwahwa, njengalokhu okwenziwa emvini yomnikelo wobudlelwano, njalo umphristi uzayitshisela e-alithareni phezu kwemihlatshelo yokudla enikelwa kuThixo. Ngalokho umphristi uzamenzela indlela yokubuyisana ngesono asenzileyo abesethethelelwa.’”
All its fat he shall take away, like the fat of the lamb is taken away from the sacrifice of peace offerings; and the priest shall burn them on the altar, on the offerings of Adonai made by fire; and the priest shall make atonement for him concerning his habitual sin ·missing the mark· that he has sinned ·deviated (from the standard goal)· from, and he will be forgiven.
