And [the] rest of the people the priests the Levites the gatekeepers the singers the temple servants and every [one who] has separated himself from [the] peoples of the lands to [the] law of God wives their sons their and daughters their every [one who] knows [one who] understands.
29 basi hawa wote wanajiunga na ndugu zao na wakuu wao, na kujifunga kwa laana na kwa kiapo kufuata Sheria ya Mungu iliyotolewa kupitia kwa Mose mtumishi wa Mungu, na kutii kwa uangalifu amri zote, maagizo na sheria za Bwana, Bwana wetu.
[are] holding On countrymen their noble [ones] their and [are] going in a curse and in an oath to walk in [the] law of God which it was given by [the] hand of Moses [the] servant of God and to take care and to do all [the] commandments of Yahweh lord our and judgments his and statutes his.
30 “Tunaahidi kutowaoza binti zetu kwa watu wanaotuzunguka, wala kuwaoza wana wetu binti zao.
And that not we will give daughters our to [the] peoples of the land and daughters their not we will take for sons our.
31 “Wakati mataifa jirani waletapo bidhaa zao au nafaka kuuza siku ya Sabato, hatutazinunua kutoka kwao siku ya Sabato, wala siku nyingine yoyote takatifu. Kila mwaka wa saba, tutaacha kuilima ardhi na tutafuta madeni yote.
And [the] peoples of the land who will bring wares and any grain on [the] day of the sabbath to sell not we will take from them on the sabbath and on a day of holiness so we may leave the year seventh and usury of every hand.
32 “Tunakubali wajibu wa kutimiza amri za kutoa theluthi ya shekeli kila mwaka kwa ajili ya utumishi wa nyumba ya Mungu:
And we establish on ourselves commandments to put on ourselves [the] third of the shekel in the year for [the] service of [the] house of God our.
33 Kwa ajili ya mikate ya Wonyesho, kwa ajili ya sadaka za kawaida za nafaka na sadaka za kuteketezwa, kwa ajili ya sadaka za siku za Sabato, Sikukuu za Mwandamo wa Mwezi na sikukuu nyingine zilizoamriwa, kwa ajili ya sadaka takatifu, kwa ajili ya sadaka za dhambi ili kufanya upatanisho kwa ajili ya Israeli, na kwa ajili ya kazi zote za nyumba ya Mungu wetu.
For [the] bread of the row and [the] grain offering of regularity and for [the] burnt offering of regularity the sabbaths the new moons for the appointed feasts and for the holy offerings and for the sin offerings to make atonement on Israel and all [the] work of [the] house of God our.
34 “Sisi makuhani, Walawi na watu, tumepiga kura kuamua kuwa kila mmoja wa jamaa zetu lazima alete katika nyumba ya Mungu wetu kwa nyakati maalum kila mwaka mchango wa kuni za kukokea moto katika madhabahu ya Bwana Mungu wetu, kama ilivyoandikwa katika Sheria.
And the lots we have cast on [the] offering of the wood the priests the Levites and the people to bring [it] to [the] house of God our to [the] house of ancestors our to times appointed a year in a year to burn [it] on [the] altar Yahweh God our according to [what] is written in the law.
35 “Pia tunachukua wajibu wa kuleta malimbuko ya mazao yetu na matunda ya kwanza ya kila mti wa matunda katika nyumba ya Bwana kila mwaka.
And to bring [the] first-fruits of ground our and [the] first-fruits of all [the] fruit of every tree a year in a year to [the] house of Yahweh.
36 “Kama pia ilivyoandikwa katika Sheria, tutawaleta wazaliwa wetu wa kwanza wa kiume, na wa mifugo yetu, yaani wa ngʼombe wetu na wa makundi yetu ya kondoo na mbuzi, katika nyumba ya Mungu wetu, kwa ajili ya makuhani wanaohudumu huko.
And [the] firstborn of sons our and cattle our according to [what] is written in the law and [the] firstborn of herds our and flocks our to bring to [the] house of God our to the priests who serve in [the] house of God our.
37 “Zaidi ya hayo, tutaleta katika ghala za nyumba ya Mungu wetu, kwa makuhani, vyakula vya kwanza vya mashamba yetu, sadaka zetu za nafaka, matunda ya miti yetu yote, divai yetu mpya na mafuta. Nasi tutaleta zaka za mazao yetu kwa Walawi, kwa kuwa Walawi ndio ambao hukusanya zaka katika miji yote tunakofanya kazi.
And [the] choicest of dough our and contributions our and [the] fruit of every tree new wine and fresh oil we will bring to the priests to [the] store-rooms of [the] house of God our and [the] tithe of ground our to the Levites and they the Levites [are] the [ones who] collect tithes in all [the] cities of labor our.
38 Kuhani atokanaye na uzao wa Aroni atashirikiana na Walawi wakati wanapopokea zaka, nao Walawi itawapasa kuleta sehemu ya kumi ya zaka katika nyumba ya Mungu wetu katika ghala za hazina.
And he will be the priest [the] descendant of Aaron with the Levites when collect [the] tithes the Levites and the Levites they will bring up [the] tenth of the tithe to [the] house of God our into the store-rooms of [the] house of the treasury.
39 Watu wa Israeli pamoja na Walawi itawapasa kuleta michango yao ya nafaka, divai mpya na mafuta katika vyumba vya ghala, mahali vifaa vya mahali patakatifu vinapohifadhiwa, na wanapokaa makuhani wanaohudumu, na mabawabu na waimbaji. “Hatutaacha kuijali nyumba ya Mungu wetu.”
For to the store-rooms they will bring [the] people of Israel and [the] descendants of the Levites [the] contribution of grain the new wine and the fresh oil and [will be] there [the] utensils of the sanctuary and the priests who serve and the gatekeepers and the singers and not we will neglect [the] house of God our.
