Mambo ya Walawi 22
1 Yahweh akazungumza na Musa, kusema,
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
2 “Ongea na Aroni na wanawe, waambie wajiepushe na vitu vitakatifu vya watu wa Israeli wanavyovitenga kwangu. Wasilinajisi jina langu. Mimi ndimi Yahweh.
Speak unto Aaron and to his sons, that they separate themselves from the holy things of the children of Israel, and that they profane not my holy name [in those things] which they hallow unto me: I [am] the LORD.
3 Waambie, 'Ikiwa mmoja wa wazao wenu katika vizazi vyenu vyote anakaribia vitu vitakatiifu vile ambavyo watu wa Israeli wamevitenga kwa Yahweh, wakati akiwa najisi, sharti mtu huyo akatiliwe mbali atoke mbele zangu. Mimi ndimi Yahweh.
Say unto them, Whosoever [he be] of all your seed among your generations, that goeth unto the holy things, which the children of Israel hallow unto the LORD, having his uncleanness upon him, that soul shall be cut off from my presence: I [am] the LORD.
4 Hatakuwapo yeyote wa uzao wa Aroni aliye na ungonjwa wa ngozi wa kuambukiza, au maambukizi yatirirkayo kutoka mwilini mwake, atakayekula sehemu yoyote ya dhabihu inatolewayo kwa Yahweh mpaka atakapotakasika. Yeyote agusaye kitu chochote kilichonajisi kwa njia ya kugusa maiti, au kwa kumgusa mtu yeyote aliyetokwa na shahawa,
What man soever of the seed of Aaron [is] a leper, or hath a running issue; he shall not eat of the holy things, until he be clean. And whoso toucheth any thing [that is] unclean [by] the dead, or a man whose seed goeth from him;
5 au yeyote agusaye mnyama atakayemtia unajisi, au mtu yeyote atakayemfanya najisi, kwa hiyo unajisi wowote unaweza kuwa—
Or whosoever toucheth any creeping thing, whereby he may be made unclean, or a man of whom he may take uncleanness, whatsoever uncleanness he hath;
6 kuhani yeyote agusaye kitu chochote kisichosafi atakuwa najisi hata jioni. Hatakula chochote cha vitu vitakatifu, isipokuwa ameuosha mwili wake katika maji.
The soul which hath touched any such shall be unclean until even, and shall not eat of the holy things, unless he wash his flesh with water.
7 Jua linapotua, ndipo atakuwa safi. Baada ya machweo anaweza kula kutoka katika vitu vitakatifu, kwasababu hivyo ni vyakuala vyake.
And when the sun is down, he shall be clean, and shall afterward eat of the holy things; because it [is] his food.
8 Asile mzoga wowote uliookotwa au mnyama aliyeraruliwa na wanyama pori, ambaye kwake atajitia unajisi. Mimi ndimi Yahweh.
That which dieth of itself, or is torn [with beasts], he shall not eat to defile himself therewith: I [am] the LORD.
9 Ni lazima makuhani wafuate maagizo yangu, ama sivyo watakuwa na hatia ya dhambi na wangeweza kufa kwa kunitia unajisi. Mimi ndimi Yahweh ninayewafanya wao watakatifu.
They shall therefore keep mine ordinance, lest they bear sin for it, and die therefore, if they profane it: I the LORD do sanctify them.
10 Hakuna mtu kutoka nje ya familia ya kuahani, wakiwemo wageni wa kuhani au watumwa wake wa kuajiliwa, atakayeweza kula kitu chochote kilicho kitakatifu.
There shall no stranger eat [of] the holy thing: a sojourner of the priest, or an hired servant, shall not eat [of] the holy thing.
11 Lakini kama huyo kuhani amenunua mtumwa kwa fedha yake mwenyewe, mtumwa huyo anaweza kula kutoka katika vitu vilivyotengwa kwa Yahweh. Na watu wa familia ya kuhani na watumwa waliozaliwa nyumbani mwake, pia wanaweza kula pamoja naye kutoka katika vitu hivyo.
But if the priest buy [any] soul with his money, he shall eat of it, and he that is born in his house: they shall eat of his meat.
12 Ikiwa binti wa kuhani ameolewa na mtu asiye kuhani, hataweza kula chochote cha mchango wa matoleo matakatifu.
If the priest’s daughter also be [married] unto a stranger, she may not eat of an offering of the holy things.
13 Lakini ikiwa huyo binti wa kuhani ni mjane au ametalikiwa, na ikiwa hana mtoto, na anarudi kuishi knyumbani kwa baba yake kama alivyokuwa wakati wa ujana wake, anaweza kula kutoka katika chakula cha baba yake. Lakini hakuna yeyote asiye wa familia ya kikuhani anatakayeruhusiwa kula kutoka katika chakula cha kuhani.
But if the priest’s daughter be a widow, or divorced, and have no child, and is returned unto her father’s house, as in her youth, she shall eat of her father’s meat: but there shall no stranger eat thereof.
14 Kama mtu anakula chakula kitakatifu bila ya kukijua, naye atamlipa kuahani kwa ajili ya hicho; itampasa kuongeza moja ya tano juu yake na kukirejesha kwa kuhani.
And if a man eat [of] the holy thing unwittingly, then he shall put the fifth [part] thereof unto it, and shall give [it] unto the priest with the holy thing.
15 Haiwapasi watu wa Israeli kutoheshimu vitu vitakatifu ambavyo vimeinuliwa juu na kuletwa kwa Yahweh,
And they shall not profane the holy things of the children of Israel, which they offer unto the LORD;
16 kisha wakajisababishia wenyewe kuchukua dhambi amabyo ingewafanya kuwa na hatia ya kula chakula kitakatifu, kwa kuwa mimi ndimi Yahweh awafanyaye wao watakatifu.”
Or suffer them to bear the iniquity of trespass, when they eat their holy things: for I the LORD do sanctify them.
17 Yahweh akazungumza na Musa, akasema,
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
18 “Sema na Aroni na wanawe, na kwa watu wa Israeli wote. Waambie, Mwisraeli yeyote, au Mgeni anayeishi katika Israeli, waletapo dhabihu—iwe ni kutimiza kiapo, au iwe ni sadaka ya hiari, au wanaleta kwa Yahweh sadaka ya kuteketezwa kwa moto,
Speak unto Aaron, and to his sons, and unto all the children of Israel, and say unto them, Whatsoever [he be] of the house of Israel, or of the strangers in Israel, that will offer his oblation for all his vows, and for all his freewill offerings, which they will offer unto the LORD for a burnt offering;
19 ikiwa wanataka ikubalike, ni lazima watowe mnyama dume asiye na dosari, kutoka kwenye kundi la ng'ombe, kondoo au mbuzi
[Ye shall offer] at your own will a male without blemish, of the beeves, of the sheep, or of the goats.
20 Lakini hamtatoa chochote kilicho na dosari. Sitakipokea kwa niaba yenu.
[But] whatsoever hath a blemish, [that] shall ye not offer: for it shall not be acceptable for you.
21 Yeyote atoae dhabihu ya sadaka ya ushirika kutoka katika kundi la ng'ombe au la kondoo kwa Yahweh ili kutimiza kiapo, au kama sadaka ya hiari, ili ikubalike, ni lazima isiwe na kilema. Ni lazima pasiweko na kasoro katika mnyama.
And whosoever offereth a sacrifice of peace offerings unto the LORD to accomplish [his] vow, or a freewill offering in beeves or sheep, it shall be perfect to be accepted; there shall be no blemish therein.
22 Msitoe kabisa wanyama waliovipofu, waliojeruhiwa, wala walio na kilema, wenye upele, vidonda vitokavyo usaha, wala wenye vigaga. Msiwatoe hawa kuwa dhabihu ya kuteketezwa kwa moto iliyotolewa kwa Yahweh juu ya madhabahu.
Blind, or broken, or maimed, or having a wen, or scurvy, or scabbed, ye shall not offer these unto the LORD, nor make an offering by fire of them upon the altar unto the LORD.
23 Unaweza kumleta makisai au mwana-kondoo mlemavu au aliyedumaa kuwa sadaka ya hiari, lakini sadaka kama hiyo kwa ajili kutimiza kiapo, haitapokelewa.
Either a bullock or a lamb that hath any thing superfluous or lacking in his parts, that mayest thou offer [for] a freewill offering; but for a vow it shall not be accepted.
24 Usitoe kwa Yahweh mnyama yeyote aliyetiwa jeraha, kupondwa, au kukatwa korodani zake.
Ye shall not offer unto the LORD that which is bruised, or crushed, or broken, or cut; neither shall ye make [any offering thereof] in your land.
25 Usifanye haya katika nchi yako. Usilete mkate wa Mungu wako kutoka mkononi mwa mgeni. Hao wanyama wenye vilema na dosari ndani yao, hawatapokelewa kabisa kwa ajili yako.
Neither from a stranger’s hand shall ye offer the bread of your God of any of these; because their corruption [is] in them, [and] blemishes [be] in them: they shall not be accepted for you.
26 Yahweh akamwambia Musa na akasema,
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
27 “Wakati ndama, mwana—kondo au mwana—mbuzi azaliwapo, sharti abaki na mama yake kwa muda wa siku saba. Ndipo kuanzia siku ya nane na kuendelea, anaweza kupokelewa kuwa dhabihu iliyofanywa kwa moto kwa Yahweh.
When a bullock, or a sheep, or a goat, is brought forth, then it shall be seven days under the dam; and from the eighth day and thenceforth it shall be accepted for an offering made by fire unto the LORD.
28 Usimchinje ng'ombe jike pamoja na ndama wake au mbuzi jike pamoja na kitoto chake kwa siku moja.
And [whether it be] cow or ewe, ye shall not kill it and her young both in one day.
29 Utoapo sadaka ya shukrani kwa Yahweh utaitoa kwa njia iliyokubalika.
And when ye will offer a sacrifice of thanksgiving unto the LORD, offer [it] at your own will.
30 Ni lazima iliwe siku iyo hiyo inayotolewa. Hutakiwi kubakiza chochote hata asubuhi. Mimi ndimi Yahweh.
On the same day it shall be eaten up; ye shall leave none of it until the morrow: I [am] the LORD.
31 Kwa hiyo imewapasa kuzishika amri zangu na kuzifuata. Mimi ndimi Yahweh.
Therefore shall ye keep my commandments, and do them: I [am] the LORD.
32 Msiliabishe jina langu takatifu. Ni lazima nitambuliwe kuwa ni mtakatifu na watu wa Israeli. Mimi ndimi Yahweh niwafanyaye ninyi watakatifu,
Neither shall ye profane my holy name; but I will be hallowed among the children of Israel: I [am] the LORD which hallow you,
33 ambaye amewaleta kutoka katika nchi ya Misri ili niwe Mungu wenu: Mimi ndimi Yahweh.”
That brought you out of the land of Egypt, to be your God: I [am] the LORD.
