10 “Taura kuvaIsraeri uti kwavari, ‘Kana mapinda munyika yandichakupai, mukakohwa gohwo rayo, uyai kumuprista nechisote chezviyo zvamunotanga kukohwa.
“Yankhula ndi Aisraeli ndipo uwawuze kuti, ‘Mukakalowa mʼdziko limene ndikukupatsanilo ndi kukolola za mʼminda mwanu, mudzabwere kwa wansembe ndi mtolo wa tirigu woyambirira kucha wa mʼminda mwanu.

Chopereka chachakudya chake chikhale cha makilogalamu awiri a ufa wosalala wosakaniza ndi mafuta kuti chikhale nsembe yopsereza yopereka kwa Yehova, ya fungo lokoma. Ndipo chopereka cha chakumwa chake chikhale vinyo wa malita anayi ndi theka.
14 Hamufaniri kudya chingwa chipi zvacho, kana zviyo zvakakangwa, kana zviyo zvitsva, kusvikira zuva chairo ramunouya nechipiriso ichi kuna Mwari wenyu. Uyu unofanira kuva murayiro unogara nokusingaperi kuzvizvarwa zvichatevera, kwose kwamuchagara.
Musadye buledi aliyense kapena tirigu wokazinga, kapena wamuwisi mpaka tsiku limene mwabwera ndi chopereka ichi kwa Mulungu wanu. Limeneli ndi lamulo lamuyaya pa mibado yanu yonse, kulikonse kumene mukakhale.
15 “‘Kubva pazuva rinotevera Sabata, zuva ramakauya nechisote chechipiriso chokuninira, verengai mavhiki manomwe azere.
“‘Kuyambira tsiku lotsatana ndi la Sabata lija, tsiku limene munabwera ndi mtolo wa nsembe yoweyula, muziwerenga masabata asanu ndi awiri athunthu.
16 Verengai mazuva makumi mashanu kusvika pazuva rinotevera Sabata rechinomwe, ipapo mugopa chipiriso chezviyo zvitsva kuna Jehovha.
Ndiye kuti muwerenge masiku makumi asanu kuchokera pa tsiku lotsatana ndi Sabata la chisanu ndi chiwiri, ndipo kenaka mupereke nsembe ya tirigu watsopano kwa Yehova.
17 Kubva kupi kwose kwamunogara, uyai nezvingwa zviviri zvakaitwa nezvikamu zviviri kubva mugumi zveefa zvoupfu hwakatsetseka zvakabikwa nembiriso sechipiriso chokuninira chezvibereko zvokutanga kuna Jehovha.

18 Pamwe chete nechingwa ichi mupe makwayana manomwe asina kuremara egore rimwe nehando imwe chete diki namakondobwe maviri. Zvichava zvipiriso zvinopisirwa Jehovha, pamwe chete nezvipiriso zvezviyo nezvipiriso zvinonwiwa, chive chipiriso chinoitwa nomoto chinonhuhwira zvinofadza kuna Jehovha.
Pamodzi ndi bulediyu muperekenso ana ankhosa aamuna asanu ndi awiri, aliyense akhale wa chaka chimodzi ndi wopanda chilema. Pakhalenso ngʼombe yayingʼono yayimuna ndi nkhosa zazimuna ziwiri. Zimenezi zidzakhala nsembe zopsereza zopereka kwa Yehova pamodzi ndi nsembe za zakudya ndi nsembe za zakumwa. Zonsezi zikhale nsembe zopsereza za fungo lokomera Yehova.
19 Ipapo bayirai nhongo imwe chete sechipiriso chechivi namakwayana maviri, ose egore rimwe chete, sechipiriso chokuwadzana.
Kenaka mupereke mbuzi imodzi yayimuna kuti ikhale nsembe yopepesera machimo ndiponso ana ankhosa awiri, aliyense wa chaka chimodzi kuti akhale nsembe yachiyanjano.
20 Muprista anofanira kuninira makwayana maviri pamberi paJehovha sechipiriso chokuninira pamwe chete nechingwa chegohwo rokutanga. Izvi zvipiriso zvitsvene kuna Jehovha zvomuprista.

21 Pazuva rimwe chetero munofanira kudaidzira ungano tsvene murege basa ramazuva ose. Uyu unofanira kuva murayiro unogara nokusingaperi kuzvizvarwa zvichauya, kwose kwamuchagara.
Pa tsiku lomwelo mulengeze za msonkhano wopatulika ndipo musagwire ntchito zolemetsa. Limeneli ndi lamulo lamuyaya pa mibado yanu yonse, kulikonse kumene mukakhale.
22 “‘Kana muchikohwa gohwo renyika yenyu musakohwa kusvikira kumucheto kwomunda wenyu, kana kunhongera zvinosara pakukohwa kwenyu. Zvisiyirei varanda navatorwa. Ndini Jehovha Mwari wenyu.’”
“‘Pamene mukukolola zinthu mʼmunda mwanu, musakolole munda wanu mpaka mʼmalire mwenimweni, ndipo musatole khunkha lake. Zimenezo musiyire anthu osauka ndi alendo. Ine ndine Yehova Mulungu wanu.’”
23 Jehovha akati kuna Mozisi,

“Uza Aisraeli kuti, ‘Tsiku loyamba la mwezi wachisanu ndi chiwiri, likhale tsiku lopumula, la msonkhano wopatulika, mulilengeze poyimba lipenga.
25 Musaita basa ramazuva ose, asi mupe chipiriso chinoitirwa Jehovha nomoto.’”
Musagwire ntchito zolemetsa koma mupereke nsembe yopsereza kwa Yehova.’”
26 Jehovha akati kuna Mozisi,

27 “Zuva regumi romwedzi iwoyo wechinomwe iZuva Rokuyananisa. Muite ungano tsvene uye muzvinyime zvokudya, mugopa chipiriso chinoitirwa Jehovha nomoto.
“Tsiku lakhumi la mwezi wachisanu ndi chiwiri ndi tsiku lochita Mwambo Wopepesera Machimo. Muzichita msonkhano wopatulika. Muzidzichepetsa pamaso pa Yehova ndi kupereka nsembe zopsereza kwa Yehova.
28 Musashanda pazuva iroro, nokuti iZuva Rokuyananisira, pamunoyananisirwa pamberi paJehovha Mwari wenyu.
Tsiku limeneli musamagwire ntchito chifukwa ndi tsiku la Mwambo Wopepesera Machimo, kupepesera machimo anu pamaso pa Yehova Mulungu wanu.
29 Munhu wose asingazvinyimi musi iwoyo anofanira kubviswa pakati pavanhu vokwake.
Munthu aliyense amene sasala zakudya pa tsiku limeneli ayenera kuchotsedwa pakati pa anthu a mtundu wake.
30 Munhu upi noupi achaita basa ripi zvaro, nomusi iwoyo, ndichamuparadza pakati pavanhu vokwake.
Aliyense wogwira ntchito tsiku limeneli ndidzamuwononga pakati pa anthu a mtundu wake.
31 Hamufaniri kutomboita basa. Uyu unofanira kuva murayiro unogara nokusingaperi kumarudzi ose achauya, kwose kwamuchagara.
Inu musadzagwire ntchito iliyonse. Limeneli ndi lamulo lamuyaya pa mibado yanu yonse, kulikonse kumene mukakhale.

Pa masiku asanu ndi awiri muzipereka nsembe zopsereza kwa Yehova. Ndipo pa tsiku lachisanu ndi chitatu muzikhala ndi msonkhano wopatulika ndipo muzipereka nsembe yopsereza kwa Yehova. Kumeneku ndi kutsekera kwa msonkhano waukulu. Musagwire ntchito zolemetsa.
37 “‘Iyi ndiyo mitambo yaJehovha yakatarwa yamunofanira kuparidzira ungano tsvene kuti dziuye nezvipiriso zvinoitirwa Jehovha nomoto, nezvipiriso zvinopiswa uye nezvinopiswa zvezviyo, zvibayiro nezvipiriso zvokunwa zvinodiwa mazuva ose.
(“‘Amenewa ndi masiku osankhika a chikondwerero cha Yehova, amene muziwalengeza kuti ndi nthawi ya msonkhano wopatulika. Masiku amenewa muzipereka nsembe zopsereza, nsembe za chakudya, nsembe zanyama ndi zopereka zachakumwa za tsiku ndi tsiku.
