< ULevi 9 >
1 Ngosuku lwesificaminwembili uMosi wabiza u-Aroni lamadodana akhe kanye labadala bako-Israyeli.
Pea ʻi hono valu ʻoe ʻaho naʻe ui ʻa Mōsese kia ʻElone mo hono ngaahi foha, pea ki he kau mātuʻa ʻo ʻIsileli:
2 Wathi ku-Aroni, “Thatha iguqa lenkunzi engelasici ibe ngumnikelo wesono, lenqama engelasici ibe ngumnikelo wokutshiswa, ukwethule phambi kukaThixo.
Pea pehē ʻe ia kia ʻElone, “Ke ke toʻo kiate koe ʻae ʻuhiki pulu mui ko e feilaulau ki he angahala, mo e sipitangata ko e feilaulau tutu, taʻehanomele, ʻo ʻatu ia ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova.
3 Ubusutshela abako-Israyeli uthi: ‘Thathani impongo ibe ngumnikelo wesono, ithole lezinyane, konke kungokulomnyaka owodwa njalo kungelasici, kube ngumnikelo wokutshiswa,
Pea ke lea ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻo pehē, Toʻo ʻekimoutolu ʻae ʻuhikiʻi kosi ko e feilaulau maʻae angahala; mo e ʻuhiki pulu mo e lami ʻi he ʻuluaki taʻu fakatouʻosi, taʻehanomele, ko e feilaulau tutu;
4 uthathe inkabi kanye lenqama kube ngumnikelo wobudlelwano oba ngumhlatshelo phambi kukaThixo, ndawonye lomnikelo wamabele ohlanganiswe lamafutha, ngoba uThixo uzabonakala kuwe lamhlanje.’”
Pea mo e pulu mo e sipitangata ko e feilaulau fakamelino, ke feilaulau ʻaki ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova; mo e feilaulau meʻakai kuo felingiʻaki ʻae lolo: he ko e ʻaho ni ʻe hā mai ʻa Sihova kiate kimoutolu.”
5 Bathatha izinto lezo uMosi ayebalaye ngazo bazisa phambi kwethente lokuhlangana, ibandla lonke lasondela eduze lema phambi kukaThixo.
Pea naʻa nau ʻomi ʻaia naʻe fekau ʻe Mōsese ki he fale fehikitaki ʻoe kakai: pea naʻe ʻunuʻunu atu ʻae kakai kotoa pē ʻo tuʻu ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova.
6 UMosi wasesithi, “Lokhu yikho uThixo alaye ukuthi likwenze, ukuze inkazimulo kaThixo ibonakale kini.”
Pea pehē ʻe Mōsese, “Ko eni ʻae meʻa kuo fekau ʻe Sihova ke mou fai: pea ʻe fakahā ai ʻae nāunau ʻo Sihova kiate kimoutolu.”
7 UMosi wathi ku-Aroni, “Woza e-alithareni uzonikela umhlatshelo wesono sakho kanye lomnikelo wakho wokutshiswa, wenzele wena kanye labantu indlela yokubuyisana. Unikele umhlatshelo wabantu ubenzele uxolo njengalokhu okulaywe nguThixo.”
Pea pehē ʻe Mōsese kia ʻElone, “ʻAlu ki he feilaulauʻanga, ʻo ʻatu ʻa hoʻo feilaulau maʻae angahala, mo hoʻo feilaulau tutu, pea fai ʻae fakalelei koeʻuhi ko koe, pea maʻae kakai: pea ʻatu ʻae feilaulau ʻae kakai, mo fai ʻae fakalelei koeʻuhi ko kinautolu; ʻo hangē ko e fekau ʻa Sihova.”
8 Ngakho u-Aroni weza e-alithareni, wahlaba ithole laba ngumnikelo wakhe wesono.
Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻa ʻElone ki he feilaulauʻanga, ʻo ne tāmateʻi ʻae pulu mui ʻoe feilaulau maʻae angahala, ʻaia ko e meʻa maʻana.
9 Amadodana akhe aletha igazi kuye, wasegxumuza umunwe wakhe egazini waninda ngalo impondo ze-alithare.
Pea naʻe ʻomi ʻe he ngaahi foha ʻo ʻElone ʻae toto kiate ia: pea naʻa ne ʻai hono tuhu ki he toto, ʻo ne ʻai ia ki he ngaahi nifo ʻoe feilaulauʻanga, ʻo ne lingi ʻae toto ki he tefitoʻi feilaulauʻanga:
10 E-alithareni watshisa amahwahwa, izinso kanye lamahwahwa aphezu kwesibindi kungokomnikelo wesono, njengalokhu uThixo ayekulaye uMosi.
Ka ko hono ngako, mo e kofuua, mo e ʻahu ʻoku ʻi ʻolunga ʻi he ʻate ʻoe feilaulau koeʻuhi ko e angahala, naʻa ne tutu ia ʻi he funga ʻoe feilaulauʻanga; ʻo hangē ko e fekau ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese.
11 Inyama kanye lesikhumba wakutshisela ngaphandle kwezihonqo.
Pea ko hono sino mo hono kili ne ne tutu ʻaki ʻae afi ʻi tuaʻā ʻi he ʻapitanga.
12 Wasehlaba umnikelo wokutshiswa. Amadodana akhe amnika igazi, walichela inxa zonke ze-alithare.
Pea naʻa ne tāmateʻi ʻae feilaulau tutu; pea ko e ngaahi foha ʻo ʻElone naʻa nau ʻatu kiate ia ʻae toto, pea naʻa ne luluku ia ki he feilaulauʻanga ʻo takatakai.
13 Bamupha umnikelo wokutshiswa, isitho ngesitho kugoqela inhloko, wakutshisela e-alithareni.
Pea naʻa nau ʻatu kiate ia ʻae feilaulau tutu, mo hono ngaahi konga ʻo ia mo e ʻulu: pea ne tutu ia ki he funga ʻoe feilaulau.
14 Wagezisa ezangaphakathi kanye lemilenze wakutshisela phezu komnikelo wokutshiswa e-alithareni.
Pea naʻe fufulu ʻe ia ʻae toʻotoʻonga mo e keukeu, pea tutu ia ki he funga ʻoe feilaulau tutu ʻi he feilaulauʻanga.
15 U-Aroni waseletha umnikelo owawungowabantu, wathatha imbuzi eyayingeyomnikelo wesono wayihlaba, waseyinikela yaba ngumnikelo wesono njengalokhu ayekwenze ngeyakuqala.
Pea naʻa ne ʻomi ʻae feilaulau ʻae kakai, ʻo ne ʻave ʻae kosi, ʻaia ko e feilaulau koeʻuhi ko e angahala ʻae kakai, ʻo ne tāmateʻi ia, ʻo ne ʻatu ia koeʻuhi ko e angahala, ʻo hangē ko e ʻuluaki.
16 Waletha umnikelo wokutshiswa wawunikela ngendlela emisiweyo.
Pea naʻe ʻomi ʻe ia ʻae feilaulau tutu, ʻo ʻatu ia ʻo fakatatau mo e fekau.
17 Waletha njalo umnikelo wamabele, wacupha ngesandla, wasewutshisela e-alithareni phezu kwalowo owokutshiswa ayewunikele ekuseni.
Pea naʻa ne ʻomi ʻae feilaulau meʻakai, pea ne toʻo ʻae mahoaʻa ʻo ia, ʻo ne tutu ia ki he funga feilaulauʻanga, ʻo ofi ki he feilaulau tutu ʻoe pongipongi.
18 Wahlaba inkabi kanye lenqama kwaba ngumnikelo wobudlelwano ebantwini. Amadodana akhe amnika igazi, walichela inxa zonke ze-alithare.
Pea naʻa ne tāmateʻi ʻae pulu mo e sipitangata ko e feilaulau ʻoe feilaulau fakamelino, ʻaia naʻe fai koeʻuhi ko e kakai: pea ko e ngaahi foha ʻo ʻElone naʻa nau ʻatu ʻae toto kiate ia, ʻaia naʻa ne luluku ki he funga feilaulauʻanga ʻo takatakai hake,
19 Kodwa amahwahwa enkabi lawenqama, lomsila ononileyo, idanga, izinso, lamahwahwa aphezu kwesibindi
Mo e ngako ʻoe pulu mo e sipitangata, ko e tuʻunga iku, mo e punukete, mo e kofuua, mo e ʻahu ʻi ʻolunga ʻi he ʻate:
20 bakwendlala phezu kwesifuba, u-Aroni wasetshisela amahwahwa e-alithareni.
Pea naʻa nau ʻai ʻae ngako ʻoe fatafata, pea tutu ʻe ia ʻae ngako ʻi he funga feilaulauʻanga:
21 U-Aroni wazunguza izifuba kanye lomlenze wokwesokunene phambi kukaThixo njengomnikelo wokuzunguza, njengokulaya kukaMosi.
Pea ko e fatafata mo e alanga muʻa toʻomataʻu naʻe taʻaloʻalo ʻaki ʻe ʻElone ko e feilaulau taʻaloʻalo ia ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova; ʻo hangē ko e fekau ʻa Mōsese.
22 U-Aroni wasephakamisela izandla zakhe ebantwini wababusisa. Kwathi esenikele umnikelo wesono, umnikelo wokutshiswa kanye lowobudlelwano, wahlala phansi.
Pea naʻe hiki ʻe ʻElone hono nima ki ʻolunga ki he kakai, ʻo ne tāpuaki ʻakinautolu, pea ʻalu hifo ia mei heʻene ʻatu ʻae feilaulau maʻae angahala, mo e feilaulau tutu, mo e feilaulau fakamelino.
23 UMosi lo-Aroni basebesiyangena ethenteni lokuhlangana. Bathi bephuma, babusisa abantu; inkazimulo kaThixo yabonakala kubo bonke abantu.
Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻa Mōsese mo ʻElone ki he fale fehikitaki ʻoe kakai, pea haʻu mei ai mo e tāpuaki ki he kakai: pea naʻe hā mai ʻae nāunau ʻo Sihova ki he kakai kotoa pē.
24 Kwavela umlilo lapho ngoba uThixo wayekhona, kwatsha umnikelo wokutshiswa kanye lamahwahwa e-alithareni. Abantu bonke bathi bebona lokho, bamemeza ngentokozo bathi mbo ngobuso phansi.
Pea naʻe haʻu ai ʻae afi mei he ʻao ʻo Sihova, ʻo ne fakavela ke ʻosi ʻae feilaulau tutu mo e ngako ʻi he funga ʻoe feilaulauʻanga: pea ʻi he mamata ki ai ʻae kakai kotoa pē, naʻa nau kalanga, pea tō fakafoʻohifo ki honau mata.
