< ULevi 9 >

1 Kwasekusithi ngosuku lwesificaminwembili uMozisi wabiza oAroni lamadodana akhe labadala bakoIsrayeli.
Ngosuku lwesificaminwembili uMosi wabiza u-Aroni lamadodana akhe kanye labadala bako-Israyeli.
2 Wathi kuAroni: Zithathele ithole, inkonyana yenkomo, libe ngumnikelo wesono, lenqama ibe ngumnikelo wokutshiswa, okungelasici, ukusondeze eNkosini.
Wathi ku-Aroni, “Thatha iguqa lenkunzi engelasici ibe ngumnikelo wesono, lenqama engelasici ibe ngumnikelo wokutshiswa, ukwethule phambi kukaThixo.
3 Lebantwaneni bakoIsrayeli uzakhuluma uthi: Thathani izinyane lembuzi libe ngumnikelo wesono, lethole, lewundlu, abe lomnyaka owodwa, angelasici, abe ngumnikelo wokutshiswa,
Ubusutshela abako-Israyeli uthi: ‘Thathani impongo ibe ngumnikelo wesono, ithole lezinyane, konke kungokulomnyaka owodwa njalo kungelasici, kube ngumnikelo wokutshiswa,
4 lenkabi lenqama zibe yiminikelo yokuthula, zihlatshwe phambi kweNkosi, lomnikelo wokudla oxubene lamafutha; ngoba lamuhla iNkosi izabonakala kini.
uthathe inkabi kanye lenqama kube ngumnikelo wobudlelwano oba ngumhlatshelo phambi kukaThixo, ndawonye lomnikelo wamabele ohlanganiswe lamafutha, ngoba uThixo uzabonakala kuwe lamhlanje.’”
5 Basebethatha lokho uMozisi akulayayo bakuletha phambi kwethente lenhlangano; lenhlangano yonke yasondela, yema phambi kweNkosi.
Bathatha izinto lezo uMosi ayebalaye ngazo bazisa phambi kwethente lokuhlangana, ibandla lonke lasondela eduze lema phambi kukaThixo.
6 UMozisi wasesithi: Le into iNkosi elilaye ngayo lizayenza; lenkazimulo yeNkosi izabonakala kini.
UMosi wasesithi, “Lokhu yikho uThixo alaye ukuthi likwenze, ukuze inkazimulo kaThixo ibonakale kini.”
7 UMozisi wasesithi kuAroni: Sondela elathini, wenze umnikelo wakho wesono lomnikelo wakho wokutshiswa, uzenzele wena inhlawulo yokuthula lokwabantu; ubususenza umnikelo wabantu, ubenzele inhlawulo yokuthula, njengokulaya kweNkosi.
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.”
8 UAroni wasesondela elathini, walihlaba ithole lomnikelo wesono owawungowakhe.
Ngakho u-Aroni weza e-alithareni, wahlaba ithole laba ngumnikelo wakhe wesono.
9 Amadodana kaAroni aseletha igazi kuye, wasegxamuza umunwe wakhe egazini, walifaka phezu kwempondo zelathi, legazi walithululela kungaphansi yelathi;
Amadodana akhe aletha igazi kuye, wasegxumuza umunwe wakhe egazini waninda ngalo impondo ze-alithare.
10 kodwa amahwahwa, lezinso, lamahwahwa esibindi omnikelo wesono wakutshisa elathini, njengalokho iNkosi imlayile uMozisi.
E-alithareni watshisa amahwahwa, izinso kanye lamahwahwa aphezu kwesibindi kungokomnikelo wesono, njengalokhu uThixo ayekulaye uMosi.
11 Kodwa inyama lesikhumba wakutshisa ngomlilo ngaphandle kwenkamba.
Inyama kanye lesikhumba wakutshisela ngaphandle kwezihonqo.
12 Wasehlaba umnikelo wokutshiswa; lamadodana kaAroni amnika igazi, waselifafaza phezu kwelathi inhlangothi zonke.
Wasehlaba umnikelo wokutshiswa. Amadodana akhe amnika igazi, walichela inxa zonke ze-alithare.
13 Amnika lomnikelo wokutshiswa ngezitho zawo lenhloko; wasekutshisa phezu kwelathi.
Bamupha umnikelo wokutshiswa, isitho ngesitho kugoqela inhloko, wakutshisela e-alithareni.
14 Wagezisa imibilini lemilenze, wayitshisa phezu komnikelo wokutshiswa elathini.
Wagezisa ezangaphakathi kanye lemilenze wakutshisela phezu komnikelo wokutshiswa e-alithareni.
15 Wasesondeza umnikelo wabantu, wathatha impongo yomnikelo wesono eyayingeyabantu, wayihlaba, wayinikela yaba ngumnikelo wesono, njengowokuqala.
U-Aroni waseletha umnikelo owawungowabantu, wathatha imbuzi eyayingeyomnikelo wesono wayihlaba, waseyinikela yaba ngumnikelo wesono njengalokhu ayekwenze ngeyakuqala.
16 Wasondeza umnikelo wokutshiswa, wawulungisa njengokwesimiso.
Waletha umnikelo wokutshiswa wawunikela ngendlela emisiweyo.
17 Wasondeza umnikelo wokudla, wagcwalisa isandla sakhe ngokwawo, wakutshisa phezu kwelathi, ngaphandle komnikelo wokutshiswa wekuseni.
Waletha njalo umnikelo wamabele, wacupha ngesandla, wasewutshisela e-alithareni phezu kwalowo owokutshiswa ayewunikele ekuseni.
18 Wahlaba inkabi lenqama zibe ngumhlatshelo weminikelo yokuthula owawungowabantu; lamadodana kaAroni amnika igazi, owalifafaza phezu kwelathi inhlangothi zonke.
Wahlaba inkabi kanye lenqama kwaba ngumnikelo wobudlelwano ebantwini. Amadodana akhe amnika igazi, walichela inxa zonke ze-alithare.
19 Lamahwahwa enkabi lawenqama, umsila ononileyo, ledanga elisibekelayo, lezinso, lamahwahwa esibindi,
Kodwa amahwahwa enkabi lawenqama, lomsila ononileyo, idanga, izinso, lamahwahwa aphezu kwesibindi
20 asebeka amahwahwa phezu kwezifuba; wasetshisa amahwahwa elathini;
bakwendlala phezu kwesifuba, u-Aroni wasetshisela amahwahwa e-alithareni.
21 kodwa izifuba lomlenze wokunene uAroni wakuzunguza kwaba ngumnikelo wokuzunguzwa phambi kweNkosi, njengokulaya kukaMozisi.
U-Aroni wazunguza izifuba kanye lomlenze wokwesokunene phambi kukaThixo njengomnikelo wokuzunguza, njengokulaya kukaMosi.
22 UAroni wasephakamisela isandla sakhe ebantwini, wababusisa. Wehla ekunikeleni umnikelo wesono lomnikelo wokutshiswa leminikelo yokuthula.
U-Aroni wasephakamisela izandla zakhe ebantwini wababusisa. Kwathi esenikele umnikelo wesono, umnikelo wokutshiswa kanye lowobudlelwano, wahlala phansi.
23 UMozisi loAroni basebengena ethenteni lenhlangano; baphuma bababusisa abantu, lenkazimulo yeNkosi yabonakala kubo bonke abantu.
UMosi lo-Aroni basebesiyangena ethenteni lokuhlangana. Bathi bephuma, babusisa abantu; inkazimulo kaThixo yabonakala kubo bonke abantu.
24 Kwasekuphuma umlilo uvela phambi kweNkosi, watshisa phezu kwelathi umnikelo wokutshiswa lamahwahwa. Bonke abantu bathi bekubona lokhu bamemeza, bawa ngobuso babo.
Kwavela umlilo lapho ngoba uThixo wayekhona, kwatsha umnikelo wokutshiswa kanye lamahwahwa e-alithareni. Abantu bonke bathi bebona lokho, bamemeza ngentokozo bathi mbo ngobuso phansi.
