< Mambo ya Walawi 1 >
1 Mungu alimwita Musa na alisema naye kutoka kweye hema la kukutania, akasema,
And the voice of the Lord came to Moses out of the Tent of meeting, saying,
2 “Sema na wana wa Israeli na uwaambie, 'Mwanaume yeyote miongoni mwenu akileta sadaka kwa Bwana, aleta kama matoleo katika wanyama wako, iwapo mifugo au katika kundi.”
Give these orders to the children of Israel: When anyone of you makes an offering to the Lord, you are to take it from the cattle, from the herd or from the flock.
3 Kama matoleo yake ni ya sadaka ya kutekezwa kutoka katika kundi, atatoa dume asiyekuwa na kasoro. Atamtoa katika mlango wa kuingilia katika hema ya kukutania, ili iwe imekubaliwa mbele za Bwana.
If the offering is a burned offering of the herd, let him give a male without a mark: he is to give it at the door of the Tent of meeting so that he may be pleasing to the Lord.
4 Ataweka mikono yake kichwani pa sadaka ya kuteketezwa, na ndipo itakuwa imekubaliwa badala yake kufanya upatanisho kwa ajili yake mwenyewe.
And he is to put his hand on the head of the burned offering and it will be taken for him, to take away his sin.
5 Ndipo atapaswa kuchinja ng'ombe mbele ya Bwana. Watoto wa Aroni, makuhani wataleta damu na kuinyunyizia katika madhabahu iliyo katika mlango wa kuingilia katika hema la kukutania.
And the ox is to be put to death before the Lord: then Aaron's sons, the priests, are to take the blood and put some of it on and round the altar which is at the door of the Tent of meeting.
6 Ndipo ataichuna sadaka ya kuteketezwa na kuikata vipande.
And the burned offering is to be skinned and cut up into its parts.
7 Kisha wana wa Haruni kuhani wataweka moto katika madhabahu na kuweka kuni ili kuchochea moto.
And Aaron's sons, the priests, are to put fire on the altar and put the wood in order on the fire:
8 Wana wa Haruni, makuhani wataweka vipande, kichwa na mafuta, watazipanga juu ya kuni zilizoko juu ya moto ulio madhabahuni.
And Aaron's sons, the priests, are to put the parts, the head and the fat, in order on the wood which is on the fire on the altar:
9 Lakini matumbo yake na miguu lazima ataiosha kwa maji. Kisha kuhani atateketeza kila kitu kilicho juu ya madhabahu kama sadaka ya kuteketeza. Italeta harufu nzuri sana kwangu; itakuwa sadaka iliyotolewa kwa moto kwa ajili yangu.
But its inside parts and its legs are to be washed with water, and it will all be burned on the altar by the priest for a burned offering, an offering made by fire, for a sweet smell to the Lord.
10 Kama sadaka kwa ajili ya sadaka ya kuteketeza kutoka kundi, kondoo au mbuzi, lazima atoe dume asiye na kasoro.
And if his offering is of the flock, a burned offering of sheep or goats, let him give a male without a mark.
11 Lazima atamchinja juu ya madhabahu iliyo katika upande wa kaskazini mbele ya Bwana. Wana wa Haruni makuhani, watanyunyiza damu kila upande wa madhabahu.
And he is to put it to death on the north side of the altar before the Lord: and Aaron's sons, the priests, are to put some of the blood on and round the altar.
12 Kisha ataikata katika vipande, pamoja na kichwa na mafuta yake, kuhani atavipanga juu ya kuni zilizo katika moto ulio madhabahuni,
And the offering is to be cut into its parts, with its head and its fat; and the priest is to put them in order on the wood which is on the fire on the altar:
13 lakini matumbo yake na miguu yake lazima ioshwe kwa maji. Kisha kuhani atatoa yote na kuiteketeza juu ya madhabahu. Ni sadaka ya kuteketezwa, italeta harufu nzuri kwa ajili ya Bwana; itakuwa sadaka ya Bwana iliyotolewa kwa moto.
But the inside parts and the legs are to be washed with water; and the priest will make an offering of all of it, burning it on the altar: it is a burned offering, an offering made by fire, for a sweet smell to the Lord.
14 Kama sadaka yake kwa Bwana itakuwa ni sadaka ya kuteketezwa ni ndege, ndipo ataleta kama sadaka yake aidha ni huwa au kinda la njiwa.
And if his offering to the Lord is a burned offering of birds, then he is to make his offering of doves or of young pigeons.
15 Kuhani ataileta madhabahuni, atamnyonga kichwa chake, na kuiteketeza juu ya madhabahu. Kisha damu yake itachuruzishwa juu ya pande za madhabahu.
And the priest is to take it to the altar, and after its head has been twisted off, it is to be burned on the altar, and its blood drained out on the side of the altar:
16 Kisha atakiondoa kibofu chake pamoja na uchafu wake, na kukiweka upande wa mashariki mwa madhabahu, katika sehemu ya majivu.
And he is to take away its stomach, with its feathers, and put it down by the east side of the altar, where the burned waste is put:
17 Kisha atapasua mabawa yake, lakini hatagawanya katika vipande viwili. Kisha Kuhani atamtekeza katika madhabahu, juu ya kuni amabazo ziko juu ya moto. Itakuwa sadaka ya kuteketezwa, na italeta harufu nzuri sana kwa Bwana; itakuwa sadaka ya Bwana iliyotolewa kwa moto.
And let it be broken open at the wings, but not cut in two; and let it be burned on the altar by the priest on the wood which is on the fire; it is a burned offering; an offering made by fire for a sweet smell to the Lord.
