1 “‘Mtu yeyote aletapo sadaka ya nafaka kwa Bwana, sadaka yake itakuwa ya unga laini. Atamimina mafuta juu yake, aweke uvumba juu yake,
‘If you bring to Yahweh an offering of grain, it must consist of finely-ground flour. You must pour olive oil on it, and put some incense on it,
2 naye atapeleka kwa makuhani wana wa Aroni. Kuhani atachukua konzi moja iliyojaa unga laini na mafuta pamoja na uvumba wote, na kuuteketeza kama sehemu ya kumbukumbu juu ya madhabahu, sadaka iliyotolewa kwa moto, harufu nzuri ya kumpendeza Bwana.
and take it to one of the priests. The priest will take a handful of the flour and the oil with the incense and burn it on the altar. That part will symbolize [that all of the offering truly belongs to Yahweh]. And the aroma will be pleasing to Yahweh.
3 Sadaka ya nafaka iliyobaki ni ya Aroni na wanawe, ni sehemu ya sadaka iliyo takatifu sana iliyotolewa kwa Bwana kwa moto.
The part of that offering that is not burned will belong to Aaron and his sons. It is a very holy part of the offerings that are given to Yahweh by [burning them] in a fire.
4 “‘Kama utaleta sadaka ya nafaka iliyookwa jikoni, itakuwa ya unga laini: maandazi yaliyotengenezwa bila kutiwa chachu, yaliyochanganywa na mafuta, au mikate myembamba iliyotengenezwa bila kutiwa chachu, na iliyopakwa mafuta.
‘If you bring an offering that is made from grain, something that is baked in an oven, it must be made from finely-ground flour. You may bring loaves made from flour mixed with olive oil but without yeast, or you may bring wafers with olive oil smeared on them, but also made without yeast.
5 Iwapo sadaka yako ya nafaka imeandaliwa kwenye kikaango, itakuwa ni ya unga laini uliochanganywa na mafuta, bila chachu.
If your offering is cooked (on a griddle/in a shallow pan), it must be made from finely-ground flour mixed with olive oil and without yeast.
6 Ukande na kumimina mafuta juu yake; hii ni sadaka ya nafaka.
You must crumble it and pour olive oil on it. That will be your offering made from grain.
7 Kama sadaka yako ya nafaka imepikwa kwenye sufuria, itatengenezwa kwa unga laini na mafuta.
If your offering that is made from grain is cooked in a pan, it must be made of finely-ground flour mixed with olive oil.
8 Ilete hiyo sadaka ya nafaka iliyotengenezwa kwa vitu hivi kwa Bwana; mkabidhi kuhani ambaye ataipeleka madhabahuni.
Bring to Yahweh your grain offering. Give it to the priest, and he will take it to the altar.
9 Naye atatoa ile sehemu ya kumbukumbu kutoka kwenye hiyo sadaka ya nafaka na kuiteketeza juu ya madhabahu kuwa sadaka iliyotolewa kwa moto, harufu nzuri ya kumpendeza Bwana.
He will take a part of it that will symbolize that all the offering belongs to Yahweh. He will burn that part on the altar, and the aroma as it burns will be pleasing to Yahweh.
10 Sadaka ya nafaka iliyobaki ni ya Aroni na wanawe; ni sehemu ya sadaka iliyo takatifu sana ya sadaka iliyotolewa kwa Bwana kwa moto.
The part that is not burned will belong to Aaron and his sons. It is a very holy part of the offerings given to Yahweh by [burning them] in a fire.
11 “‘Kila sadaka ya nafaka unayoleta kwa Bwana ni lazima ifanywe bila kutiwa chachu, kwa kuwa huna ruhusa kuchoma chachu yoyote au asali katika sadaka itolewayo kwa Bwana kwa moto.
‘Every offering that is made from grain and that you bring to Yahweh must be made without yeast, because you must not put any yeast or honey in any offering to Yahweh that is burned [on the altar].
12 Unaweza kuzileta kwa Bwana kama sadaka ya malimbuko, lakini haziwezi kutolewa juu ya madhabahu kama harufu nzuri ya kupendeza.
You may bring to Yahweh an offering of the first part of your harvest, but that is not to be burned on the altar to produce an aroma that will be pleasing to Yahweh.
13 Koleza sadaka zako zote za nafaka kwa chumvi. Usiache kuweka chumvi ya Agano la Mungu wako katika sadaka zako za nafaka; weka chumvi kwenye sadaka zako zote.
Put salt on all your offerings that are made from grain. The salt represents the agreement that your God [made with] you, so be sure that you do not forget to put salt on those offerings.
14 “‘Kama ukileta malimbuko ya sadaka ya nafaka kwa Bwana, utatoa masuke yaliyopondwa ya nafaka mpya iliyookwa kwa moto.
‘If you bring to Yahweh an offering of the first part of your harvest of grain, offer some new grain that has been crushed and roasted in a fire.
15 Weka mafuta na uvumba juu yake; ni sadaka ya nafaka.
Put olive oil and incense on it, and that will be your offering made from grain.
16 Kuhani atateketeza ile sehemu ya kumbukumbu kutoka kwenye hiyo sadaka ya nafaka iliyopondwa kwa mafuta, pamoja na uvumba wote, kama sadaka iliyotolewa kwa Bwana kwa moto.
The priest will take a part of the flour and oil along with the incense. [That will symbolize that all the offering truly belongs to Yahweh]. He will burn that part on the altar, to be an offering given to Yahweh by [burning it] in a fire.’”
