Mambo ya Walawi 8
1 Bwana akamwambia Mose,
Yahweh also said to Moses/me,
2 “Waletee Aroni na wanawe mavazi yao, mafuta ya upako, fahali kwa ajili ya sadaka ya dhambi, kondoo dume wawili na kikapu chenye mikate iliyotengenezwa bila chachu.
“Bring Aaron and his sons, and bring their (special clothes/clothes [that they will wear while they do the work of priests)], the oil for anointing them, the bull to be offered to cause them to become forgiven for the sins they have committed, the two rams [to be slaughtered], and the basket containing bread made without yeast.
3 Kisha kusanya mkutano wote kwenye ingilio la Hema la Kukutania.”
Then gather all the people at the entrance to the Sacred Tent.”
4 Mose akafanya kama Bwana alivyomwagiza, na mkutano ukakusanyika kwenye ingilio la Hema la Kukutania.
Moses/I did what Yahweh told him/me to do, and all the people gathered there.
5 Mose akaliambia kusanyiko, “Hili ndilo Bwana ameagiza lifanyike.”
Then Moses/I said to the people, “This is what Yahweh has commanded us to do.”
6 Kisha Mose akamleta Aroni na wanawe mbele, akawaosha kwa maji.
Then he/I brought Aaron and his sons forward and washed them.
7 Akamvika Aroni koti, akamfunga mshipi, akamvika joho na kumvalisha kisibau. Pia akafunga kisibau juu yake na kukifunga kiunoni mwake kwa mshipi wake uliosokotwa kwa ustadi.
He/I put the special tunic/shirt on Aaron, tied the sash/waistband around him, put on him the special robe, and put on him the sacred vest/apron. He/I fastened the sacred vest/apron around him, using the skillfully woven sash.
8 Akaweka kifuko cha kifuani juu yake, na kuweka Urimu na Thumimu kwenye hicho kifuko.
He/I put the sacred pouch on his chest and put into it the two stones for him to use to find out what God wants.
9 Kisha akamvika Aroni kilemba kichwani pake, akaweka lile bamba la dhahabu, yaani ile taji takatifu, upande wa mbele wa kilemba, kama Bwana alivyomwagiza Mose.
Then he/I wrapped the turban around Aaron’s head, and fastened on the front of it the gold ornament, the object that showed that he was dedicated to God, like Yahweh had commanded Moses/me.
10 Ndipo Mose akachukua mafuta ya upako na kuipaka maskani na kila kitu kilichokuwamo ndani yake, kisha akaviweka wakfu.
Then Moses/I took the olive oil and anointed the sacred tent and everything in it, and dedicated them [to Yahweh].
11 Akanyunyiza baadhi ya mafuta juu ya madhabahu mara saba, akaipaka madhabahu mafuta na vyombo vyake vyote pamoja na sinia na kinara chake, ili kuviweka wakfu.
He/I sprinkled some of the oil on the altar seven times. He/I anointed the altar and all the things used with it, and its huge washbasin and its stand, to dedicate them to Yahweh.
12 Akamimina sehemu ya hayo mafuta ya upako kichwani mwa Aroni, akamtia mafuta ili kumweka wakfu.
He/I poured some of the oil on Aaron’s head and anointed him to dedicate him to Yahweh.
13 Kisha akawaleta wana wa Aroni mbele, akawavika makoti, akawafunga mishipi na kuwavika vilemba, kama Bwana alivyomwagiza Mose.
Then he/I brought forward Aaron’s sons. He/I put tunics/shirts on them, tied sashes/waistbands around them, and wrapped turbans around their heads, like Yahweh had commanded Moses/me.
14 Kisha akamtoa fahali kwa ajili ya sadaka ya dhambi, nao Aroni na wanawe wakaweka mikono yao juu ya kichwa chake.
Then he/I brought the bull for the offering to cause people to be forgiven for the sins that have committed. Then Aaron and his sons put their hands on the bull’s head.
15 Mose akamchinja yule fahali na akachukua sehemu ya hiyo damu, kisha kwa kidole chake akaitia kwenye pembe zote za madhabahu ili kutakasa madhabahu. Akaimwaga damu iliyobaki chini ya madhabahu. Kwa hiyo akayaweka wakfu ili kufanya upatanisho kwa ajili ya madhabahu.
Then Moses/I slaughtered the bull, [caught some of its blood in a bowl], and with his/my finger put some of that blood on the projections at the corners of the altar, to purify the altar. He/I poured the rest of the blood at the base of the altar. By doing that, he/I caused it to be a suitable place for burning sacrifices for sin.
16 Pia Mose akachukua mafuta yote yanayozunguka sehemu za ndani, mafuta yanayofunika ini, figo zote mbili pamoja na mafuta yake, akayateketeza juu ya madhabahu.
Moses/I took all the fat that covers the inner parts of the animal, including the liver and kidneys, and burned them on the altar.
17 Lakini fahali, ikiwa pamoja na ngozi yake na nyama yake na sehemu zake za ndani na matumbo, akaiteketeza nje ya kambi, kama Bwana alivyomwagiza Mose.
He/I took the rest of the bull, including the hide and intestines, and burned them outside the camp, like Yahweh had commanded Moses/me.
18 Kisha Mose akamleta kondoo dume kwa ajili ya sadaka ya kuteketezwa, naye Aroni na wanawe wakaweka mikono yao juu ya kichwa chake.
Then he/I brought the ram for the offering that would be completely burned [on the altar], and Aaron and his sons laid their hands on its head.
19 Ndipo Mose akamchinja yule kondoo dume na kunyunyiza damu yake pande zote za madhabahu.
Then Moses/I slaughtered the ram and sprinkled its blood on all sides of the altar.
20 Mose akamkata yule kondoo dume vipande vipande na kukiteketeza kichwa, vile vipande na yale mafuta.
He/I cut the ram into pieces and washed the inner parts and hind legs. Then he/I put the head, the fat, and the other parts of the ram on the altar. As it burned, the aroma of the smoke was pleasing to Yahweh. It was an offering to Yahweh that was burned, as Yahweh had commanded Moses/me.
21 Kisha akamsafisha sehemu za ndani na miguu kwa maji, na kumteketeza yule kondoo dume mzima juu ya madhabahu kuwa sadaka ya kuteketezwa, harufu nzuri ya kupendeza, sadaka iliyotolewa kwa Bwana kwa moto, kama Bwana alivyomwagiza Mose.
22 Kisha akaleta kondoo dume mwingine, ndiye kondoo dume kwa ajili ya kuwaweka wakfu, naye Aroni na wanawe wakaweka mikono yao juu ya kichwa chake.
Then he/I brought the other ram, the one for consecrating the priests, and Aaron and his sons laid their hands on its head.
23 Mose akamchinja yule kondoo dume, akaichukua sehemu ya damu yake na kuipaka juu ya ncha ya sikio la kuume la Aroni, na juu ya kidole gumba cha mkono wake wa kuume na juu ya kidole kikubwa cha mguu wake wa kuume.
Moses/I slaughtered that ram, [drained some of its blood in a bowl], and put some of that blood on the lobes of the right ears, the thumbs of the right hands, and the big toes of the right feet of Aaron and his sons [to indicate that what they listened to and what they did and where they went should be directed by Yahweh].
24 Pia Mose akawaleta hao wana wa Aroni mbele, akaipaka sehemu ya hiyo damu kwenye ncha za masikio yao ya kuume, juu ya vidole gumba vya mikono yao ya kuume, na juu ya vidole vikubwa vya miguu yao ya kuume. Kisha akanyunyiza damu pande zote za madhabahu.
25 Akachukua mafuta ya mnyama, mafuta ya mkia, mafuta yote yanayozunguka sehemu za ndani, mafuta yanayofunika ini, figo zote mbili pamoja na mafuta yake, na paja la kulia.
He/I picked up all the fat of the ram, its fat tail, the fat that covered the inner parts, including the fat that covered the liver and kidneys, and the right thigh of the ram.
26 Kisha kutoka kwenye kikapu cha mikate iliyotengenezwa bila chachu, kilichokuwa mbele za Bwana, akachukua andazi moja, na jingine lililotengenezwa kwa mafuta, na mkate mwembamba; akaviweka hivi vyote juu ya mafungu ya mafuta ya mnyama, na juu ya lile paja la kulia.
Then from the basket containing the bread that was made without yeast, the bread which had been dedicated to Yahweh, he/I picked up one loaf of bread [made without olive oil], and one loaf that was [made by mixing the flour] with olive oil, and one wafer. He/I put those on top of the portions of fat, and put them into the hands of Aaron and his sons. Then they lifted them up in the presence of Yahweh [to indicate that it was an offering that belonged to him].
27 Akaviweka hivi vyote mikononi mwa Aroni na wanawe, na kuviinua mbele za Bwana kuwa sadaka ya kuinuliwa.
28 Kisha Mose akavichukua kutoka mikononi mwao na kuviteketeza juu ya madhabahu ya sadaka ya kuteketezwa kuwa sadaka ya kuwekwa wakfu, harufu nzuri ya kupendeza, sadaka iliyotolewa kwa Bwana kwa moto.
Then Moses/I took those things from their hands and burned them on the altar. That was the offering that was burned to appoint Aaron and his sons as priests. And the aroma while it burned was pleasing to Yahweh.
29 Kisha akachukua kidari, kilicho fungu la Mose la kondoo dume kwa ajili ya kuwekwa wakfu, na kukiinua mbele za Bwana kama sadaka ya kuinuliwa, kama Bwana alivyomwagiza Mose.
Moses/I also took the breast of the second ram and lifted it up, as Yahweh had commanded. The breast was Moses’/my share of the ram that was sacrificed to dedicate the priests.
30 Kisha Mose akachukua sehemu ya mafuta ya upako, na sehemu ya damu kutoka kwenye madhabahu, na kuvinyunyiza juu ya Aroni na mavazi yake, na juu ya wanawe na mavazi yao. Kwa hiyo akamweka Aroni na mavazi yake wakfu, pamoja na wanawe na mavazi yao.
Then Moses/I took some of the olive oil for anointing [Aaron and his sons], and some of the blood that was on the altar and sprinkled it on Aaron and his sons and on their clothes. By doing that, he/I consecrated Aaron and his sons and their clothes.
31 Kisha Mose akamwambia Aroni na wanawe, “Pika hiyo nyama kwenye ingilio la Hema la Kukutania, na uile hapo pamoja na mkate kutoka kwenye kikapu cha sadaka ya kuweka wakfu, kama nilivyoagiza, nikisema, ‘Aroni na wanawe wataila.’
Then Moses/I said to Aaron and his sons, “Boil the meat [of the second ram] at the entrance of the Sacred Tent, and eat it there with the bread that is in the basket, like I told you to do.
32 Kisha teketeza nyama na mikate iliyobaki.
Burn up any of the meat and bread that remains.
33 Msitoke kwenye ingilio la Hema la Kukutania kwa muda wa siku saba, mpaka siku zenu za kuwekwa wakfu ziwe zimetimia, kwa kuwa muda wenu wa kuwekwa wakfu utakuwa siku saba.
The time for you to be set apart as priests will be seven days, so do not leave the entrance of the Sacred Tent for seven days.
34 Lile lililofanyika leo liliagizwa na Bwana ili kufanya upatanisho kwa ajili yenu.
What we have done today is what Yahweh commanded to cause that you will be forgiven for your sins.
35 Lazima mkae kwenye ingilio la Hema la Kukutania usiku na mchana kwa siku saba, na kufanya lile Bwana analolitaka, ili kwamba msife; kwa kuwa hilo ndilo nililoamriwa.”
You must stay at the entrance of the Sacred Tent for seven days and seven nights and do what Yahweh requires, in order that you will not die [because of disobeying him. I am telling you that] because that is what Yahweh has commanded me to tell you.”
36 Kwa hiyo Aroni na wanawe wakafanya kila kitu Bwana alichoamuru kupitia kwa Mose.
So Aaron and his sons did everything that Yahweh told Moses/me to tell them.
