Mambo ya Walawi 3
1 Kama mtu atoa dhabihu ambayo ni matoleo ya amani ya mnyama kutoka katika kundi, dume au jike, lazima atatoa mnyama asiyena kasoro mbele ya Bwana.
[“Also tell the people], ‘When the offering that you bring to Yahweh is to maintain good fellowship [with him], you may bring a bull or a cow from your herd [of cattle], but what you present to Yahweh must be an animal that has no defects.
2 Ataweka mikono yake juu ya sadaka yake na atamchinja mbele ya mlango wa hema ya kukutania. Kisha wana wa Haruni makuhani watanyunyizia damu yake katika pande za madhabahu.
You must bring the animal to the entrance to the Sacred Tent. You must lay your hands on its head. Then you must slaughter it [and drain some of its blood in a bowl]. Then one of Aaron’s sons, one of the priests, will sprinkle the blood against all sides of the altar.
3 Mtu akitoa dhabihu ya amani itolewayo kwa moto kwa ajili ya Bwana. Mafuta yanayofunika au yanayoungana na hizo sehemu za ndani,
From that offering, you must offer to Yahweh, as a sacrifice that will be burned in the fire, all the fat that covers the inner parts of the animal, or which is attached to them—

the kidneys and the fat that is attached to them near the lower back muscle, and the fat that covers the liver.
5 Wana wa Haruni watayachoma hayo katika madhabahu pamoja na sadaka ya kutekezwa, juu ya kuni zilizo kwenye moto. Zitaleta harufu nzuri mbele ya Bwana; itakuwa sadaka ya itolewayo kwake kwa moto.
Then one of the priests will burn those things on the altar, along with the other parts of the animal that will be completely burned to be an offering [to Yahweh]. And the aroma while it burns will be pleasing to Yahweh.
6 Kama dhabihu ya amani ya mtu itolewayo kwa Bwana ni kutoka katika mifugo ni mbuzi au kondoo ni dume au jike, atatoa dhabihu isiyo na kasoro.
If that offering to maintain good fellowship with Yahweh is a sheep or a goat, it must also be an animal that has no defects.
7 Kama atatoa mwanakondoo kwa ajili ya dhabihu yake, atamtoa mbele za Bwana.
If you offer a lamb, you must present it to Yahweh [at the entrance to the Sacred Tent]. You must lay your hands on the lamb’s head and then slaughter it. [‘You must drain some of its blood in a bowl].
8 Ataweka mkono wake juu ya ya kichwa cha dhabihu yake na atamchinja mbele ya hema ya kukutania. Ndipo wana wa Haruni watanyunyizia damu pande za madhabahu.
Then one of the priests will sprinkle that blood against all sides of the altar.
9 Mtu akitoa sadaka ya dhabihu ya amani kama sadaka ya kusogezwa kwa moto kwa Bwana. Mafuta, mafuta ya mkia yatakatwa hapo karibu na mfupa wa kiuno, na mafuta yanayofunika matumbo na mafuta yaliyo katika matumbo,
You must dedicate these things to be a sacrifice to Yahweh that is burned: Its fat, the fat tail that you must cut off close to the backbone, and all the fat that covers the inner parts of the lamb or which is attached to them—
10 na figo zote mbili na mafuta yanayofunika yaliyo karibu na kiuno kitambi kilicho karibu na ini na figo ataziondoa zote.
the kidneys with the fat that is on them near the lower back muscle, and the fat that covers the liver.
11 Na kuhani atayatekeza yote kwa moto katika madhabahu kama sadaka ya chakula isogezwayo kwa moto kwa Bwana.
One of the priests will burn those things on the altar to be an offering to Yahweh; [it will be as though] they will be a special food [given to Yahweh].
12 Kama matoleo ya mtu ni mbuzi, ndipo ataitoa mbele ya Bwana.
‘If your offering is a goat, you must take/present it to Yahweh.
13 Ataweka mikono yake juu ya kichwa cha mbuzi na atamchinja mbele ya hema ya kukutania. Ndipo wana wa Haruni watanyunyizia damu pande zote za madhabahu.
You must lay your hands on its head. Then you must slaughter it in front of the Sacred Tent. Then one of Aaron’s sons will sprinkle the blood against all sides of the altar.
14 Mtu akitoa dhabihu kwa Bwana kwa njia ya moto. Ataondoa mafuta yanayozunguka matumbo, na mafuta yote yanayozunguka matumbo.
From that offering you must dedicate these things to be a sacrifice to Yahweh that is burned: All the fat that covers the inner parts of the animal or which is attached to them,
15 Ataondoa pia figo mbili na mafuta yanayozunguka, ambayo yanazunguka kiuno na kitambi cha maini pamoja na figo.
the kidneys with the fat that is on them near the lower back muscle, and the fat that covers the liver.
16 Kuhani atateketeza yote juu ya madhabahu kama matoleo ya chakula yatolewayo kwa moto, ni sadaka ya kuleta harufu nzuri sana. Mafuta yote ni ya Bwana.
The priest will burn those things on the altar to be an offering to Yahweh; [it will be as though] they will be a special food [given to Yahweh]. And the aroma while it burns will be pleasing to Yahweh. All the fat [of the animals that are sacrificed] belongs to Yahweh.
17 Itakuwa ni amri ya kudumu kwa kizazi cha watu katika maeneo yote mtakapotengeneza makazi, kwamba hamtakula mafuta au damu.”'
‘This is a command that must be obeyed by you and your descendants forever, wherever you live: You must not eat the fat or the blood [of any animal].’”
