< Amanani 28 >
1 INkosi yasikhuluma kuMozisi isithi:
Yahweh said this to Moses/me:
2 Laya abantwana bakoIsrayeli uthi kubo: Umnikelo wami, isinkwa sami seminikelo eyenziwe ngomlilo, uqhatshi lwami olumnandi, lizakuqaphela ukukunikela kimi ngesikhathi sakho esimisiweyo.
“Tell this to the Israeli people: Bring to me the offerings that will be burned [on the altar]. When they are burned, the smell will be very pleasing to me. And tell them that they must bring them at the proper/right time.
3 Uzakuthi kibo: Lo ngumnikelo owenziwe ngomlilo elizawunikela eNkosini; amawundlu amabili alomnyaka owodwa, angelasici, insuku ngensuku, kube ngumnikelo wokutshiswa njalonjalo.
Tell them that what they must bring to me each day are two male lambs that are one-year-old. They must have no defects. They must be completely burned [on the altar].
4 Elinye iwundlu uzalilungisa ekuseni, lelinye iwundlu ulinikele kusihlwa,
They should bring one in the morning and the other early in the evening.
5 lokwetshumi kwe-efa lempuphu ecolekileyo kube ngumnikelo wokudla, kuxubene lengxenye yesine yehini yamafutha agigiweyo.
They must also bring an offering of grain, consisting of two quarts/liters of finely-ground flour, mixed with a quart of [olive] oil.
6 Kungumnikelo wokutshiswa wezikhathi zonke owamiswa entabeni yeSinayi, ube luqhatshi olumnandi, umnikelo owenzelwe iNkosi ngomlilo.
That is the offering that they must bring every day. They started to bring those offerings [while you were] at Sinai Mountain. When those offerings are burned [on the altar], the smell will be very pleasing to me.
7 Lomnikelo wawo wokunathwayo uzakuba yingxenye yesine yehini ngewundlu linye; uzathululela eNkosini umnikelo wokunathwayo ongowokunathwayo okulamandla endaweni engcwele.
When they burn each lamb, they must also pour on the sacred altar one quart/liter of wine.
8 Lelinye iwundlu uzalilungisa kusihlwa; njengomnikelo wokudla wekuseni, lanjengomnikelo wawo wokunathwayo uzalinikela, umnikelo owenziwe ngomlilo, oloqhatshi olumnandi eNkosini.
In the evening, when they offer the second lamb, they must also bring the same offerings of grain and wine [as they burned in the morning]. When they are burned, the smell will also be very pleasing to me.”
9 Langosuku lwesabatha amawundlu amabili, alomnyaka owodwa, angelasici, lengxenye ezimbili zetshumi lempuphu ecolekileyo, kube ngumnikelo wokudla, ixubene lamafutha, lomnikelo wawo wokunathwayo;
“On each (Sabbath/rest day), [you must bring] two male lambs that have no defects. Also bring a grain offering of four quarts/liters of finely-ground flour mixed with [olive] oil and a wine offering of four quarts/liters of wine.
10 kungumnikelo wokutshiswa wamasabatha wonke, ngaphandle komnikelo wokutshiswa wezikhathi zonke, lomnikelo wawo wokunathwayo.
Those are the offerings that are to be burned [on the altar] each (Sabbath/rest day). Those are in addition to the offerings of two lambs and wine that you must bring each day.”
11 Ekuqaleni kwenyanga zenu lizanikela umnikelo wokutshiswa eNkosini, amajongosi amabili amathole enkomo, lenqama eyodwa, lamawundlu ayisikhombisa alomnyaka owodwa, angelasici,
“On the first day of each month, you must bring to me an offering of two young bulls, one male sheep, and seven male lambs that are one-year-old. All of these must be without defects. They must all be burned [completely on the altar].
12 lengxenye ezintathu zetshumi lempuphu ecolekileyo kube ngumnikelo wokudla, ixubene lamafutha, ngejongosi elilodwa; lokubili kwetshumi kwempuphu ecolekileyo kube ngumnikelo wokudla, ixubene lamafutha, ngenqama eyodwa,
Also bring with each bull an offering of six quarts/liters of finely-ground flour mixed with [olive] oil. With each male sheep make an offering of four quarts of finely-ground flour mixed with [olive] oil.
13 njalo yilokho lalokho okwetshumi kwempuphu ecolekileyo kuxubene lamafutha kube ngumnikelo wokudla ngewundlu elilodwa; ngumnikelo wokutshiswa oloqhatshi olumnandi, umnikelo owenzelwe iNkosi ngomlilo.
Also bring an offering of two quarts/liters of finely-ground flour mixed with [olive] oil with each lamb. When all of these are burned [on the altar], the smell will be very pleasing to me.
14 Leminikelo yayo yokunathwayo izakuba yingxenye yehini lewayini ngejongosi, lengxenye yesithathu yehini ngenqama, lengxenye yesine yehini ngewundlu. Lokhu kungumnikelo wokutshiswa wezinyanga zonke ngezinyanga zomnyaka.
With each bull, also bring two quarts/liters of wine. With each male sheep, bring (1-1/3 quarts/1.2 liters) of wine. With each lamb, bring one quart/liter of wine. These offerings must be brought on the first day of each month and burned completely [on the altar].
15 Futhi kuzalungiswa izinyane lembuzi elilodwa libe ngumnikelo wesono eNkosini, ngaphandle komnikelo wokutshiswa ngezikhathi zonke, lomnikelo wawo wokunathwayo.
In addition to these offerings that you burn, you must bring to me one goat for an offering [to enable me to forgive you for the sins you have committed].”
16 Futhi ngenyanga yokuqala ngosuku lwetshumi lane lwenyanga kuliphasika leNkosi.
“The Passover Festival must be celebrated to [honor] me [each year] on the fourteenth day of the first month [of each year].
17 Langosuku lwetshumi lanhlanu lwenyanga le kuzakuba khona umkhosi; kuzadliwa isinkwa esingelamvubelo insuku eziyisikhombisa.
The Festival of Unleavened Bread will start on the next day. For the following seven days, the bread that you eat must be made without yeast.
18 Ngosuku lokuqala kuzakuba khona inhlangano ebiziweyo engcwele; lingenzi lamsebenzi wezisebenzi,
On the first day of that festival, you must gather together to worship me, and you must not do any work.
19 kodwa lizanikela umnikelo owenziwe ngomlilo, umnikelo wokutshiswa eNkosini, amajongosi amabili amathole enkomo, lenqama eyodwa, lamawundlu ayisikhombisa alomnyaka owodwa; kuzakuba ngokungelasici kini.
On that day, you must bring to me for an offering that will be completely burned [on the altar] two young bulls, one male sheep, and seven male lambs that are one-year-old. They must all have no defects.
20 Lomnikelo wakho wokudla kuzakuba yimpuphu ecolekileyo ixubene lamafutha; okuthathu kwetshumi lizakulungisa ngejongosi, lokubili kwetshumi ngenqama,
With each of these bulls, bring a grain offering of grain, consisting of six quarts/liters of finely-ground flour mixed with [olive] oil. With the male sheep, bring an offering of grain consisting of four quarts/liters of finely-ground flour mixed with [olive] oil.
21 yilokho lalokho okwetshumi uzakulungiselela iwundlu elilodwa, kumawundlu ayisikhombisa;
With each of the seven lambs, bring an offering of two quarts/liters of finely-ground flour mixed with [olive] oil.
22 lempongo eyodwa ibe ngumnikelo wesono, ukulenzela inhlawulo yokuthula.
Also bring one goat for a sacrifice to cause you to be forgiven for your sin.
23 Lizalungisa lokho ngaphandle komnikelo wokutshiswa wekuseni, ongowomnikelo wokutshiswa wezikhathi zonke.
Bring these offerings in addition to the offerings that you bring each morning.
24 Ngalindlela lizalungisa insuku zonke, okwensuku eziyisikhombisa, ukudla komnikelo owenziwe ngomlilo, uqhatshi olumnandi eNkosini; kuzanikelwa ngaphandle komnikelo wokutshiswa wezikhathi zonke, lomnikelo wawo wokunathwayo.
The smell of the grain that is burned [on the altar] each day for seven days will be very pleasing to me. Bring the grain in addition to the animals and the wine that you burn [on the altar].
25 Langosuku lwesikhombisa lizakuba lenhlangano ebiziweyo engcwele; lingenzi lamsebenzi wezisebenzi.
On the seventh day of that festival, you must [again] gather together to worship me, and you must not do any work.”
26 Langosuku lwezithelo zokuqala, lapho liletha umnikelo wokudla omutsha eNkosini, emavikini enu, lizakuba lenhlangano ebiziweyo engcwele; lingenzi lamsebenzi wezisebenzi.
“On the day of the Harvest Festival, when you bring to me the first grain that you have harvested, you must gather together to worship me. Do not do any work on that day.
27 Kodwa lizanikela umnikelo wokutshiswa, kube luqhatshi olumnandi eNkosini; amajongosi amabili amathole enkomo, inqama eyodwa, amawundlu ayisikhombisa alomnyaka owodwa.
Bring to me two young bulls, one male sheep, and seven male lambs that are one-year-old. When they are completely burned [on the altar], the smell will be very pleasing to me.
28 Lomnikelo wakho wokudla wempuphu ecolekileyo ixubene lamafutha, okuthathu kwetshumi ngejongosi elilodwa, lokubili kwetshumi ngenqama eyodwa,
Also bring a grain offering of nice flour mixed with [olive] oil. For each bull, bring six quarts/liters, and with each male sheep, bring four quarts/liters,

and with each of the lambs bring two quarts/liters.

Bring these offerings and the offering of wine in addition to the animals and grain that you burn [on the altar] each day. [And remember that] the animals that you sacrifice must have no defects.”
