Mambo ya Walawi 1
1 Mungu alimwita Musa na alisema naye kutoka kweye hema la kukutania, akasema,
Then the LORD called to Moses and spoke to him from 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.”
“Speak to the Israelites and tell them: When any of you brings an offering to the LORD, you may bring as your offering an animal from the herd or 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 one’s offering is a burnt offering from the herd, he is to present an unblemished male. He must bring it to the entrance to the Tent of Meeting for its acceptance before the LORD.
4 Ataweka mikono yake kichwani pa sadaka ya kuteketezwa, na ndipo itakuwa imekubaliwa badala yake kufanya upatanisho kwa ajili yake mwenyewe.
He is to lay his hand on the head of the burnt offering, so it can be accepted on his behalf to make atonement for him.
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 he shall slaughter the young bull before the LORD, and Aaron’s sons the priests are to present the blood and sprinkle it on all sides of the altar at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.
6 Ndipo ataichuna sadaka ya kuteketezwa na kuikata vipande.
Next, he is to skin the burnt offering and cut it into pieces.
7 Kisha wana wa Haruni kuhani wataweka moto katika madhabahu na kuweka kuni ili kuchochea moto.
The sons of Aaron the priest shall put a fire on the altar and arrange wood on the fire.
8 Wana wa Haruni, makuhani wataweka vipande, kichwa na mafuta, watazipanga juu ya kuni zilizoko juu ya moto ulio madhabahuni.
Then Aaron’s sons the priests are to arrange the pieces, including the head and the fat, atop the burning wood 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.
The entrails and legs must be washed with water, and the priest shall burn all of it on the altar as a burnt offering, an offering made by fire, a pleasing aroma to the LORD.
10 Kama sadaka kwa ajili ya sadaka ya kuteketeza kutoka kundi, kondoo au mbuzi, lazima atoe dume asiye na kasoro.
If, however, one’s offering is a burnt offering from the flock—from the sheep or goats—he is to present an unblemished male.
11 Lazima atamchinja juu ya madhabahu iliyo katika upande wa kaskazini mbele ya Bwana. Wana wa Haruni makuhani, watanyunyiza damu kila upande wa madhabahu.
He shall slaughter it on the north side of the altar before the LORD, and Aaron’s sons the priests are to sprinkle its blood against the altar on all sides.
12 Kisha ataikata katika vipande, pamoja na kichwa na mafuta yake, kuhani atavipanga juu ya kuni zilizo katika moto ulio madhabahuni,
He is to cut the animal into pieces, and the priest shall arrange them, including the head and fat, atop the burning wood that is 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.
The entrails and legs must be washed with water, and the priest shall bring all of it and burn it on the altar; it is a burnt offering, an offering made by fire, a pleasing aroma 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.
If, instead, one’s offering to the LORD is a burnt offering of birds, he is to present a turtledove or a young pigeon.
15 Kuhani ataileta madhabahuni, atamnyonga kichwa chake, na kuiteketeza juu ya madhabahu. Kisha damu yake itachuruzishwa juu ya pande za madhabahu.
Then the priest shall bring it to the altar, twist off its head, and burn it on the altar; its blood should be 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 remove the crop with its contents and throw it to the east side of the altar, in the place for ashes.
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.
He shall tear it open by its wings, without dividing the bird completely. And the priest is to burn it on the altar atop the burning wood. It is a burnt offering, an offering made by fire, a pleasing aroma to the LORD.
