ULevi 3
1 Uba-ke umnikelo wakhe ungumhlatshelo weminikelo yokuthula, nxa enikela okwenkomo, ingabe iduna kumbe insikazi, uzawunikela ungelasici phambi kweNkosi.
“‘If his offering is a sacrifice of peace offerings, if he offers it from the herd, whether male or female, he shall offer it without defect before the LORD.
2 Uzabeka isandla sakhe enhlokweni yomnikelo wakhe, awuhlabe emnyango wethente lenhlangano; amadodana kaAroni angabapristi azafafaza-ke igazi phezu kwelathi inhlangothi zonke.
He shall lay his hand on the head of his offering, and kill it at the door of the Tent of Meeting. Aaron’s sons, the priests, shall sprinkle the blood around on the altar.
3 Uzanikela okuvela kuwo umhlatshelo weminikelo yokuthula umnikelo owenzelwe iNkosi ngomlilo, idanga, lamahwahwa wonke asemibilini,
He shall offer of the sacrifice of peace offerings an offering made by fire to the LORD. The fat that covers the innards, and all the fat that is on the innards,
4 lezinso zombili lamahwahwa akuzo asezinkalweni, lamahwahwa angaphezu kwesibindi uzawasusa 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.
5 Njalo amadodana kaAroni azawatshisa elathini phezu komnikelo wokutshiswa ophezu kwenkuni eziphezu komlilo; kungumnikelo owenziwe ngomlilo oloqhatshi olumnandi eNkosini.
Aaron’s sons shall burn it on the altar on the burnt offering, which is on the wood that is on the fire: it is an offering made by fire, of a pleasant aroma to the LORD.
6 Uba-ke umnikelo wakhe ongumhlatshelo weminikelo yokuthula eNkosini ungowomhlambi, iduna kumbe insikazi, uzawunikela ungelasici.
“‘If his offering for a sacrifice of peace offerings to the LORD is from the flock, either male or female, he shall offer it without defect.
7 Uba enikela iwundlu, libe ngumnikelo wakhe, uzalinikela phambi kweNkosi,
If he offers a lamb for his offering, then he shall offer it before the LORD;
8 abeke isandla sakhe enhlokweni yomnikelo wakhe, awuhlabe phambi kwethente lenhlangano; amadodana kaAroni azafafaza-ke igazi lawo phezu kwelathi inhlangothi zonke.
and he shall lay his hand on the head of his offering, and kill it before the Tent of Meeting. Aaron’s sons shall sprinkle its blood around on the altar.
9 Uzanikela okuvela kuwo umhlatshelo weminikelo yokuthula, umnikelo owenzelwe iNkosi ngomlilo, amahwahwa awo, umsila wonke ononileyo ewuquma eduze lomgogodla, ledanga, lamahwahwa wonke asemibilini,
He shall offer from the sacrifice of peace offerings an offering made by fire to the LORD; its fat, the entire tail fat, he shall take away close to the backbone; and the fat that covers the entrails, and all the fat that is on the entrails,
10 lezinso zombili lamahwahwa akuzo asezinkalweni, lamahwahwa angaphezu kwesibindi uzawasusa 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.
11 Umpristi uzakutshisa-ke elathini, kuyikudla komnikelo owenzelwe iNkosi ngomlilo.
The priest shall burn it on the altar: it is the food of the offering made by fire to the LORD.
12 Uba-ke umnikelo wakhe uyimbuzi, uzawunikela phambi kweNkosi,
“‘If his offering is a goat, then he shall offer it before the LORD.
13 abeke isandla sakhe enhlokweni yayo, ayihlabe phambi kwethente lenhlangano; amadodana kaAroni azafafaza-ke igazi layo phezu kwelathi inhlangothi zonke.
He shall lay his hand on its head, and kill it before the Tent of Meeting; and the sons of Aaron shall sprinkle its blood around on the altar.
14 Uzanikela okuvela kiyo umnikelo wakhe, umnikelo owenzelwe iNkosi ngomlilo, idanga, lamahwahwa wonke asemibilini,
He shall offer from it as his offering, an offering made by fire to the LORD; the fat that covers the innards, and all the fat that is on the innards,
15 lezinso zombili lamahwahwa akuzo asezinkalweni, lamahwahwa angaphezu kwesibindi uzawasusa 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.
16 Njalo umpristi uzakutshisa elathini, kuyikudla komnikelo owenziwe ngomlilo, kube luqhatshi olumnandi. Wonke amahwahwa ngaweNkosi.
The priest shall burn them on the altar: it is the food of the offering made by fire, for a pleasant aroma; all the fat is the LORD’s.
17 Yisimiso saphakade ezizukulwaneni zenu, emizini yenu yonke, sokuthi lingadli ngitsho amahwahwa lagazi.
“‘It shall be a perpetual statute throughout your generations in all your dwellings, that you shall eat neither fat nor blood.’”
