Mambo ya Walawi 24
1 Bwana akamwambia Mose,
And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying:
2 “Waagize Waisraeli wakuletee mafuta safi ya zeituni yaliyokamuliwa kwa ajili ya mwanga ili taa ziwe zinawaka daima.
'Command the children of Israel, that they bring unto thee pure olive oil beaten for the light, to cause a lamp to burn continually.
3 Nje ya pazia la Ushuhuda ndani ya Hema la Kukutania, Aroni ataziwasha taa mbele za Bwana kuanzia jioni hadi asubuhi bila kuzima. Hili litakuwa agizo la kudumu kwa vizazi vijavyo.
Without the veil of the testimony, in the tent of meeting, shall Aaron order it from evening to morning before the LORD continually; it shall be a statute for ever throughout your generations.
4 Taa zilizo juu ya kinara cha dhahabu safi mbele za Bwana lazima zihudumiwe daima.
He shall order the lamps upon the pure candlestick before the LORD continually.
5 “Chukua unga laini, uoke mikate kumi na miwili, ukitumia sehemu mbili za kumi za efa za unga kwa kila mkate.
And thou shalt take fine flour, and bake twelve cakes thereof: two tenth parts of an ephah shall be in one cake.
6 Iweke katika mistari miwili, kila mstari mikate sita, uiweke mbele za Bwana juu ya meza iliyotengenezwa kwa dhahabu safi.
And thou shalt set them in two rows, six in a row, upon the pure table before the LORD.
7 Kando ya kila mstari, weka uvumba safi kama sehemu ya kumbukumbu ili kuwakilisha mikate kuwa sadaka iliyotolewa kwa Bwana kwa kuteketezwa kwa moto.
And thou shalt put pure frankincense with each row, that it may be to the bread for a memorial-part, even an offering made by fire unto the LORD.
8 Mikate hii itawekwa mbele za Bwana kila wakati, Sabato baada ya Sabato, kwa niaba ya Waisraeli, kuwa Agano la kudumu.
Every sabbath day he shall set it in order before the LORD continually; it is from the children of Israel, an everlasting covenant.
9 Hii ni mali ya Aroni na wanawe, watakaoila katika mahali patakatifu, kwa sababu ni sehemu takatifu sana ya fungu lao la kawaida la sadaka iliyotolewa kwa Bwana kwa kuteketezwa kwa moto.”
And it shall be for Aaron and his sons; and they shall eat it in a holy place; for it is most holy unto him of the offerings of the LORD made by fire, a perpetual due.'
10 Basi mwana wa mama Mwisraeli na baba Mmisri alikwenda miongoni mwa Waisraeli, nayo mapigano yakatokea ndani ya kambi kati yake na Mwisraeli.
And the son of an Israelitish woman, whose father was an Egyptian, went out among the children of Israel; and the son of the Israelitish woman and a man of Israel strove together in the camp.
11 Huyu mwana wa mwanamke Mwisraeli akalikufuru Jina la Bwana kwa kulaani; kwa hiyo wakamleta kwa Mose. (Jina la mama yake aliitwa Shelomithi binti wa Dibri, wa kabila la Dani.)
And the son of the Israelitish woman blasphemed the Name, and cursed; and they brought him unto Moses. And his mother's name was Shelomith, the daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dan.
12 Nao wakamweka mahabusu mpaka mapenzi ya Bwana yawe wazi kwao.
And they put him in ward, that it might be declared unto them at the mouth of the LORD.
13 Ndipo Bwana akamwambia Mose:
And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying:
14 “Mchukue huyo aliyekufuru nje ya kambi. Wale wote waliomsikia akikufuru wataweka mikono juu ya kichwa chake, kisha kusanyiko lote litampiga mawe.
'Bring forth him that hath cursed without the camp; and let all that heard him lay their hands upon his head, and let all the congregation stone him.
15 Waambie Waisraeli: ‘Ikiwa mtu yeyote atamlaani Mungu wake, atakuwa na hatia kwa uovu wake;
And thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel, saying: Whosoever curseth his God shall bear his sin.
16 yeyote atakayekufuru Jina la Bwana ni lazima auawe. Kusanyiko lote litampiga kwa mawe. Iwe ni mgeni au mzawa, atakapolikufuru Jina la Bwana, ni lazima auawe.
And he that blasphemeth the name of the LORD, he shall surely be put to death; all the congregation shall certainly stone him; as well the stranger, as the home-born, when he blasphemeth the Name, shall be put to death.
17 “‘Kama mtu yeyote atamuua mtu mwingine, ni lazima auawe.
And he that smiteth any man mortally shall surely be put to death.
18 Mtu yeyote auaye mnyama wa mtu mwingine lazima afidie, uhai kwa uhai.
And he that smiteth a beast mortally shall make it good: life for life.
19 Ikiwa mtu yeyote atamjeruhi jirani yake, chochote alichomtenda naye atatendewa:
And if a man maim his neighbour; as he hath done, so shall it be done to him:
20 iwapo amemvunja mfupa atavunjwa mfupa, jicho kwa jicho, jino kwa jino. Kama alivyomjeruhi mwenzake, vivyo hivyo ndivyo atakavyojeruhiwa.
breach for breach, eye for eye, tooth for tooth; as he hath maimed a man, so shall it be rendered unto him.
21 Yeyote auaye mnyama wa mtu lazima alipe fidia, lakini yeyote auaye mtu, lazima auawe.
And he that killeth a beast shall make it good; and he that killeth a man shall be put to death.
22 Mtakuwa na sheria iyo hiyo kwa mgeni na kwa mzawa. Mimi ndimi Bwana Mungu wenu.’”
Ye shall have one manner of law, as well for the stranger, as for the home-born; for I am the LORD your God.'
23 Kisha Mose akasema na Waisraeli, nao wakamchukua yule aliyekufuru nje ya kambi na kumpiga mawe. Waisraeli wakafanya kama Bwana alivyomwagiza Mose.
And Moses spoke to the children of Israel, and they brought forth him that had cursed out of the camp, and stoned him with stones. And the children of Israel did as the LORD commanded Moses.
