1 Jehovha akadana Mozisi akataura naye ari muTende Rokusangana akati,

Then the Lord called Moses and spoke to him from the tabernacle of the testimony, saying:

2 “Taura kuvana vaIsraeri uti kwavari, ‘Kana munhu upi zvake pakati penyu achiuya nechipiriso kuna Jehovha ngaauye nechipiriso chezvipfuwo, zvemombe kana zvamakwai.

Speak to the sons of Israel, and you shall say to them: The man among you who will offer to the Lord a sacrifice from the cattle, that is, an offering of victims of oxen or sheep:

3 “‘Kana chipiriso chake chiri chinopiswa chinobva mudanga remombe, ngaape chikono chisina kuremara. Ngaachibayire pamusuo weTende Rokusangana kuti chigamuchirwe pamberi paJehovha.

if his offering will be a holocaust, as well as from the herd, he shall offer an immaculate male at the door of the tabernacle of the testimony, to make himself pleasing to the Lord.

4 Anofanira kuisa ruoko rwake pamusoro pechibayiro chinopiswa uye chichagamuchirwa chakamumirira iye kuti chimuyananisire.

And he shall place his hand on the head of the sacrifice, and so it shall be acceptable and effective, in its expiation.

5 Ngaabaye hando diki pamberi paJehovha uye ipapo vanakomana vaAroni vaprista vachauya neropa vagorisasa paaritari kumativi ose pamusuo wokupinda nawo muTende Rokusangana.

And he shall immolate the calf in the sight of the Lord. And the priests, the sons of Aaron, shall offer its blood, pouring it all around the altar, which is before the door of the tabernacle.

6 Anofanira kuvhiya chipiriso chinopiswa agochicheka kuita zvidimbu zvidimbu.

And having pulled away the skin of the victim, they shall cut up the joints into pieces,

7 Vanakomana vaAroni, muprista, vanofanira kuisa moto paaritari vagoronga huni pamoto.

and they shall toss fire under the altar, having arranged beforehand a stack of wood.

8 Ipapo vanakomana vaAroni vaprista vacharonga zvidimbu zvenyama, zvichisanganisira musoro namafuta pamusoro pehuni dzinenge dzichipfuta paaritari.

And they shall lay the parts which are cut up in order upon it: namely, the head, and all the things that adjoin to the liver,

9 Anofanira kusuka nyama yomukati namakumbo nemvura, uye muprista agopisa zvose paaritari. Chipiriso chinopiswa, chipiriso chinogadzirwa nomoto, chinonhuhwira zvinofadza kuna Jehovha.

the intestines and feet having been washed with water. And the priest shall burn them on the altar as a holocaust and as a sweet odor to the Lord.

10 “‘Kana chipiriso chiri chinopiswa, chinobva muzvipfuwo, chiri chegwai kana chembudzi, anofanira kupa chikono chisina kuremara.

But if the offering is from the flocks, a holocaust either of sheep or goats, he shall offer a male without blemish.

11 Ngaachibayire parutivi rwearitari nechokumusoro pamberi paJehovha, vanakomana vaAroni vaprista vagosasa ropa kumativi ose earitari.

And he shall immolate it at the side of the altar which looks out toward the north, in the sight of the Lord. Yet truly, the sons of Aaron shall pour its blood upon the altar all around.

12 Anofanira kucheka nyama muzvidimbu uye muprista achaironga pamwe chete nomusoro namafuta pamusoro pehuni dzinenge dzichipfuta paaritari.

And they shall divide the limbs, the head, and everything that adjoins to the liver. And they shall place them on the wood, under which the fire is to be thrown.

13 Anofanira kusuka nyama yomukati namakumbo nemvura, uye muprista anofanira kuuyisa zvose agozvipisa pamusoro pearitari. Chibayiro chinopiswa, chibayiro chakagadzirwa nomoto, chinonhuhwira zvinofadza kuna Jehovha.

Yet truly, the intestines and the feet they shall wash with water. And the priest, having offered everything, shall burn it upon the altar as a holocaust and as a most sweet odor to the Lord.

14 “‘Kana chipiriso chake kuna Jehovha chiri chipiriso chinopiswa cheshiri, ngaape njiva kana hangaiwa ichiri diki.

But if the oblation of a holocaust to the Lord is of birds, either of turtledoves, or young pigeons,

15 Muprista achaiisa paaritari agodambura musoro, oipisa paaritari; ropa rayo richaerera parutivi pearitari.

the priest shall offer it at the altar: and twisting back the neck with the head, and also rupturing the place of the wound, he shall make the blood run down over the edge of the altar.

16 Ngaabvise chihururu neminhenga agozvikanda kumabvazuva kwearitari kunenge kune madota.

Yet truly, the craw of the throat and the feathers he shall cast near the altar at the eastern section, in the place where the ashes are usually poured out.

17 Achaibvambura namapapiro ayo asingaiparadzanisi zvachose, muprista agoipisa pahuni dziri pamoto uri paaritari. Chipiriso chinopiswa, chipiriso chakagadzirwa nomoto, chinonhuhwira zvinofadza kuna Jehovha.

And he shall break its wing joints, but he shall neither cut, nor divide it with metal, and he shall burn it upon the altar, placing fire under the wood. It is a holocaust and an oblation of a most sweet odor to the Lord.
