< ULevi 1 >
1 INkosi yasimbiza uMozisi yakhuluma kuye isethenteni lenhlangano yathi:
KAHEA mai la o Iehova ia Mose, olelo mai la hoi ia ia mai loko mai o ka halelewa o ke anaina, i mai la,
2 Khuluma kubantwana bakoIsrayeli uthi kubo: Nxa umuntu wakini esondeza umnikelo eNkosini, lizasondeza umnikelo wenu ovela ezifuyweni, ovela enkomeni, loba ovela ezimvini.
E olelo aku oe i na mamo a Iseraela, e i aku hoi ia lakou, Ina e lawe kekahi kanaka o oukou i ka mohai ia Iehova, no na holoholona e lawe ai oukou i ka oukou mohai, no ka ohana bipi, a no ka ohana hipa,
3 Uba umnikelo wakhe ungumnikelo wokutshiswa ovela enkomeni, uzanikela iduna elingelasici, alinikele emnyango wethente lenhlangano, ngokuthanda kwakhe, phambi kweNkosi.
Ina o kana mohai he mohaikuni noloko o ka ohana bipi, e mohai oia i ke kane kina ole: e mohai aku hoi oia ia no kona makemake iho ma ka puka o ka halelewa o ke anaina, ma ke alo o Iehova.
4 Uzabeka isandla sakhe enhlokweni yomnikelo wokutshiswa, njalo wemukelelwe yena, ukumenzela inhlawulo yokuthula.
A e kau ae oia i kona lima maluna o ke poo o ka mohaikuni; a e maliuia nona e hooliloia i kalahala nona.
5 Uzalihlaba ijongosi phambi kweNkosi; lamadodana kaAroni, abapristi, azanikela igazi, afafaze igazi elathini inhlangothi zonke, elisemnyango wethente lenhlangano.
A e pepehi oia i ka bipi kane ma ke alo o Iehova; a o lawe mai na kahuna, ka Aarona mau keiki, i ke koko, a e pipi i ke koko a puni maluna iho o ke Kuahu, ka mea ma ka puka o ka halelewa o ke anaina.
6 Uzahlinza umnikelo wokutshiswa, awusike ngeziqa zawo.
A e lole oia i ka ili o ka mohaikuni, a e okioki i ka mohai i mau apana.
7 Njalo amadodana kaAroni umpristi azafaka umlilo elathini, ahlele inkuni phezu komlilo.
A e kau ae na keiki a Aarona ke kahuna i ke ahi maluna o ke kuahu, a e kau pono i ka wahie maluna o ke ahi.
8 Amadodana kaAroni, abapristi, azahlela-ke izitho, inhloko lamahwahwa, phezu kwenkuni ezisemlilweni ophezu kwelathi.
A e kau na kahuna, ka Aarona mau keiki i na apana, i ke poo, a me ke kaikea, a pono maluna o ka wahie ka mea maluna o ke ahi, ka mea maluna o ke kuahu.
9 Kodwa imibilini yalo lemilenze yalo uzakugezisa ngamanzi; njalo umpristi uzakutshisa konke elathini, kube ngumnikelo wokutshiswa, umnikelo owenziwe ngomlilo oloqhatshi olumnandi eNkosini.
Aka e holoi oia i kona naau, a me kona mau wawae, me ka wai; a e kuni ke kahuna i na mea a pau maluna o ke kuahu, i mohaikuni, he inohai i kaumahaia ma ke ahi, he mea ala ono ia Iehova.
10 Njalo uba umnikelo wakhe uvela emhlanjini, owezimvu loba owembuzi, kube ngumnikelo wokutshiswa, uzasondeza iduna elingelasici;
A ina no loko o ka ohana o na hipa, a o na kao kona mohai i mohaikuni, e lawe mai oia ia he kane kina ole,
11 uzalihlabela eceleni kwelathi ngenyakatho, phambi kweNkosi; njalo amadodana kaAroni, abapristi, azafafaza igazi lalo elathini inhlangothi zonke.
A e pepehi oia ia ia ma ka aoao kukulu akau ma ke alo o Iehova; a e pipi na kahuna ka Aarona mau keiki i kona koko a puni maluna o ke kuahu.
12 Uzalisika ngeziqa zalo, lenhloko yalo lamahwahwa alo; lompristi uzakuhlela phezu kwenkuni ezisemlilweni ophezu kwelathi.
A e okioki iho oia i mau apana una me kona poo a me kona konahua: a e kau ke kahuna ia mau mea a pono, maluna o ka wahie, ka mea maluna o ke ahi, ka mea maluna o ke kuahu.
13 Kodwa uzagezisa imibilini lemilenze ngamanzi; lompristi uzakunikela konke, akutshise elathini; kungumnikelo wokutshiswa, umnikelo owenziwe ngomlilo oloqhatshi olumnandi eNkosini.
Aka e holoi oia i ka naau, a me kona mau wawae me ka wai; a e lawe pu mai ke kahuna a e kuni maluna iho o ke kuahu: he mohaikuni ia, he mohai i kaumahaia ma ke ahi, he mea ala ono ia Iehova.
14 Uba-ke umnikelo wakhe eNkosini ungumnikelo wokutshiswa owezinyoni, uzanikela umnikelo wakhe uvela emajubeni loba amaphuphu enkwilimba.
A ina no na manu ka mohaikuni kona mohai ia Iehova, alaila e lawe mai oia i kana mohai no na kuhukuku, a i ole ia, no na nunu opiopio.
15 Umpristi alisondeze elathini, atshuphune inhloko yalo, alitshise elathini, legazi lalo likhanyelwe eceleni kwelathi,
A e lawe mai ke kahuna ia i ke kuahu, a e niki i kona poo, a e kuni aku ia ma ke kuahu, a e uwiia kona koko ma ka aoao o ke kuahu.
16 asuse isidlelo salo lensiba zalo, akulahle eceleni kwelathi ngempumalanga, endaweni yomlotha,
A e unuhi ae oia i kona opu a me kona haumia, a e holoi ae ia ma ka aoao o ke kuahu, ma ka hikina, ma kahi o ka lehu.
17 aliqhaqhe ngempiko zalo, angalehlukanisi; umpristi alitshise-ke elathini, phezu kwenkuni ezisemlilweni; kungumnikelo wokutshiswa, umnikelo owenziwe ngomlilo oloqhatshi olumnandi eNkosini.
A e mahele oia ia ia me kona mau eheu, aole hoi e hookaawale loa; a e kuni ke kahuna ia ma ke kuahu maluna o ka wahie ka mea iluna o ke ahi; he mohaikuni ia, he mohai kaumahaia ma ke ahi, he mea ala ono ia Iehova.
