Numeri 8
1 Jehovha akati kuna Mozisi,
Awo Mukama Katonda n’agamba Musa nti,
2 “Taura naAroni uti kwaari, ‘Kana uchimisa mwenje minonwe, inofanira kuvhenekera nzvimbo iri mberi kwechigadziko chomwenje.’”
“Yogera ne Alooni omugambe nti, ‘Bw’oba oteekateeka ettaala omusanvu, zisaana zaake nga zimulisa ebbanga eryo eriri mu maaso g’ekikondo ky’ettaala.’”
3 Aroni akaita saizvozvo; akamisa mwenje yakatarisa mberi kuchigadziko chomwenje, sezvakanga zvarayirwa Mozisi naJehovha.
Alooni n’akola bw’atyo; n’akoleeza ettaala ne zaaka nga zimulisa ebbanga eryali mu maaso g’ekikondo ky’ettaala, nga Mukama Katonda bwe yalagira Musa.
4 Aya ndiwo magadzirirwo akanga akaitwa chigadziko chomwenje: Chakanga chakaitwa negoridhe rakapambadzirwa kubva pahwaro hwacho kusvikira pamaruva acho. Chigadziko chomwenje chakanga chakagadzirwa zvakanyatsofanana nomufananidzo wakanga waratidzwa Mozisi naJehovha.
Ekikondo ky’ettaala kyakolebwa mu ngeri eno: kyaweesebwa mu zaabu okuva ku ntobo yaakyo okutuuka ku bimuli byakyo. Ekikondo ky’ettaala kyakolebwa ng’ekifaananyi ekyokulabirako Mukama Katonda kye yalaga Musa bwe kyali.
5 Jehovha akati kuna Mozisi:
Mukama Katonda n’agamba Musa nti,
6 “Bvisa vaRevhi pakati pavamwe vaIsraeri ugovanatsa.
“Ggyamu Abaleevi mu baana ba Isirayiri, obafuule balongoofu.
7 Pakuvanatsa, unofanira kuita izvi: Sasa pamusoro pavo mvura yokuvachenesa; ipapo ugoita kuti vaveure miviri yavo yose vagosuka nguo dzavo, kuitira kuti vazvinatse.
Okubafuula abalongoofu ojja kukola bw’oti: bamansireko amazzi ag’obulongoofu, obalagire bamwe omubiri gwabwe gwonna, era booze n’engoye zaabwe, bwe batyo bafuuke abalongoofu.
8 Uite kuti vatore hando duku nechipiriso chayo chezviyo choupfu hwakatsetseka hwakavhenganiswa namafuta, ipapo munofanira kutorazve imwe hando duku yechipiriso chechivi.
Balagire baweeyo ente ya sseddume ento n’ekiweebwayo ekigenderako eky’obuwunga obulungi obutabuddwamu amafuta ag’omuzeeyituuni; n’oluvannyuma naawe oddire ente ya sseddume ento ogiweeyo olw’ekiweebwayo olw’ekibi.
9 Uuye navaRevhi mberi kweTende Rokusangana ugounganidza ungano yose yavaIsraeri.
Abaleevi obaleete mu maaso ga Weema ya Mukama ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu, era okuŋŋaanyize awo ekibiina ky’abaana ba Isirayiri bonna.
10 Unofanira kuuya navaRevhi pamberi paJehovha, uye vaIsraeri vanofanira kuisa maoko avo pamusoro pavo.
Onooleeta Abaleevi mu maaso ga Mukama, era abaana ba Isirayiri bajja kussa emikono gyabwe ku Baleevi abo.
11 Aroni anofanira kuisa vaRevhi pamberi paJehovha sechipiriso chokuninira chinobva kuvaIsraeri, kuitira kuti vagadzirire kuita basa raJehovha.
Alooni ajja kuwaayo Abaleevi eri Mukama Katonda ng’ekiweebwayo ekiwuubibwa ekivudde mu baana ba Isirayiri, bwe batyo babe nga beetegese okukola omulimu gwa Mukama.
12 “Mushure mokunge vaRevhi vaisa maoko avo pamisoro yehando, ushandise imwe yacho sechipiriso chechivi kuna Jehovha uye imwe yacho sechipiriso chinopiswa, kuti uyananisire vaRevhi.
“Abaleevi banassa emikono gyabwe ku mitwe gy’ente zisseddume zombi; emu onoogiwaayo ng’ekiweebwayo olw’ekibi, n’endala ng’ekiweebwayo ekyokebwa eri Mukama Katonda, okutangiririra Abaleevi.
13 Uite kuti vaRevhi vamire pamberi paAroni navanakomana vake ipapo ugovakumikidza sechipiriso chokuninira kuna Jehovha.
Ojja kuyimiriza Abaleevi mu maaso ga Alooni ne batabani be, olyoke obaweeyo eri Mukama Katonda ng’ekiweebwayo ekiwuubibwa.
14 Nenzira iyi unofanira kutsaura vaRevhi pakati pavamwe vaIsraeri, uye vaRevhi vachava vangu.
“Bw’otyo bw’onooyawula Abaleevi okuva mu baana ba Isirayiri, era Abaleevi banaabanga bange.
15 “Mushure mokunge wanatsa vaRevhi nokuvakumikidza sechipiriso chokuninira, vanofanira kuuya kuzoita basa ravo paTende Rokusangana.
“Ebyo nga biwedde Abaleevi banaayingiranga mu Weema ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu ne baweereza, ng’omaze okubafuula abalongoofu era ng’obawaddeyo ng’ekiweebwayo ekiwuubibwa.
16 Ivo ndivo vaIsraeri vachapiwa zvachose kwandiri. Ndakavatora kuti vave vangu pachinzvimbo chamatangwe, vanakomana vokutanga vomukadzi mumwe nomumwe womuIsraeri.
Kubanga bampeereddwa ddala nga bava mu baana ba Isirayiri. Mbeetwalidde nga be bange ddala mu kifo ky’ababereberye, eky’abaana aboobulenzi ababereberye abazaalibwa buli mukazi Omuyisirayiri.
17 Chibereko chose chokutanga chechikono muIsraeri, angava munhu kana chipfuwo, ndechangu. Pandakauraya matangwe ose muIjipiti, ndakazvitsaurira ivo kwandiri.
Buli ekizaalibwa kyonna mu Isirayiri ekisajja nga kibereberye, oba muntu oba nsolo, kyange. Bwe nazikiriza ebibereberye byonna eby’omu nsi y’e Misiri, ebya Isirayiri nabyeyawulirako ne biba byange.
18 Uye ndakatora vaRevhi panzvimbo yavanakomana veIsraeri vamatangwe.
Kaakano ntutte Abaleevi mu kifo ky’ababereberye mu baana ba Isirayiri.
19 PavaIsraeri vose, ndakapa vaRevhi sezvipo kuna Aroni navanakomana vake kuti vaite basa paTende Rokusangana vakamirira vaIsraeri uye kuti vayananisire vaIsraeri kuti varege kuurayiwa nedenda pavanenge vaswedera kunzvimbo tsvene.”
Nzigye Abaleevi mu baana ba Isirayiri ne mbagabira Alooni ne batabani be ng’ekirabo, bakolererenga abaana ba Isirayiri nga baweereza mu Weema ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu nga batangiririra abaana ba Isirayiri balemenga kulumbibwa kawumpuli nga babadde basemberedde awatukuvu.”
20 Mozisi, Aroni neungano yose yeIsraeri vakaitira vaRevhi sezvakanga zvarayirwa Mozisi naJehovha.
Bwe batyo Musa ne Alooni n’ekibiina kyonna eky’abaana ba Isirayiri ne bakola ku Baleevi ebyo byonna nga Mukama bwe yalagira Musa.
21 VaRevhi vakazvinatsa vakasuka nguo dzavo. Ipapo Aroni akavaisa pamberi paJehovha sechipiriso chokuninira akavayananisira kuti vanatswe.
Abaleevi ne bayoza engoye zaabwe, ne Alooni n’abawaayo ng’ekiweebwayo ekiwuubibwa eri Mukama Katonda, n’abatangiririra okubafuula abalongoofu.
22 Shure kwaizvozvo, vaRevhi vakauya kuzoshanda basa ravo paTende Rokusangana vachitungamirirwa naAroni navanakomana vake. Vakaitira vaRevhi sezvakanga zvarayirwa Mozisi naJehovha.
Ebyo bwe byaggwa Abaleevi ne bajja okukola omulimu gwabwe nga baweereza mu Weema ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu, nga balabirirwa Alooni ne batabani be. Baakola byonna ku Baleevi nga Mukama Katonda bwe yalagira Musa.
23 Jehovha akati kuna Mozisi,
Awo Mukama Katonda n’agamba Musa nti,
24 “Izvi ndizvo zvichaitwa navaRevhi: Vamwe vana makore makumi maviri namashanu kana anopfuura vachauya kuzoshanda basa paTende Rokusangana,
“Bino bye bikwata ku Baleevi: Abasajja ab’emyaka amakumi abiri mu etaano egy’obukulu n’okusingawo, banajjanga ne batandika emirimu gyabwe mu Weema ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu;
25 asi kana vasvika makore makumi mashanu, vanofanira kuregedza basa ravo uye varege kuzoshandazve.
naye bwe banaawezanga emyaka egy’obukulu amakumi ataano banaawummuliranga ddala ne bava ku mirimu emitongole egya bulijjo ne bateeyongera kuweereza.
26 Vangabatsira havo hama dzavo kuita mabasa apaTende Rokusangana, asi ivo pachavo havafaniri kushanda basa. Zvino, izvi ndizvo zvaunofanira kurayira vaRevhi kuti vaite.”
Naye banaayinzanga okudduukirirako ku booluganda abanaabanga bakola emirimu egyo mu Weema ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu, naye bo ku lwabwe tebaakolenga mirimu egyo mu butongole. Bw’otyo bw’onootegekanga emirimu gy’Abaleevi.”
