Exodus 29
1 “Èyí ni ohun tí ìwọ yóò ṣe láti yà wọ́n sí mímọ́, kí wọn lè máa ṣe àlùfáà fún mi. Mú ọ̀dọ́ akọ màlúù kan àti àgbò méjì tí kò ní àbùkù.
“This is what you must do to dedicate Aaron and his sons to serve me [by being] priests: Select one young bull and two rams that do not have any defects.
2 Láti ara ìyẹ̀fun aláìwú dídùn, ṣe àkàrà àti àkàrà tí a pò pẹ̀lú òróró, àti àkàrà fẹ́lẹ́fẹ́lẹ́ aláìwú tí a da òróró sí.
Bake three [kinds of bread] using finely-ground wheat flour, but without yeast: Bake some loaves that do not have any olive oil in them, bake some loaves that have olive oil in the dough, and bake some thin wafers that will be smeared with olive oil [after they are baked].
3 Ìwọ yóò sì kó wọn sínú apẹ̀rẹ̀ kan, ìwọ yóò sì mú wọn wà nínú apẹ̀rẹ̀ náà papọ̀ pẹ̀lú akọ màlúù àti àgbò méjì náà.
Put them in a basket and offer them [to me] when you sacrifice the young bull and the two rams.
4 Nígbà náà ni ìwọ yóò mú Aaroni àti àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ wá sí ẹnu-ọ̀nà àgọ́ àjọ, ìwọ yóò sì fi omi wẹ̀ wọ́n.
Take Aaron and his sons to the entrance of the Sacred Tent, and wash them [ritually].
5 Ìwọ yóò sì fi ẹ̀wù àwọ̀tẹ́lẹ̀ wọ Aaroni, àti aṣọ ìgúnwà efodu, àti efodu, àti ìgbàyà, kí ó sì fi onírúurú ọnà ọ̀já ẹ̀wù efodu dì í.
Then put the special clothes on Aaron—the long-sleeved tunic/gown, the robe that will be worn underneath the sacred apron, the sacred apron, the sacred pouch, and the sash/waistband.
6 Ìwọ yóò sì fi fìlà dé e ní orí, ìwọ yóò sì ṣe adé mímọ́ sára fìlà náà.
Place the turban on his head, and fasten to the turban the ornament that has the words ‘Dedicated to Yahweh’ engraved on it.
7 Nígbà náà ni ìwọ yóò sì mú òróró ìtasórí, ìwọ yóò sì yà á sí mímọ́ nípa dída òróró sí i ní orí.
Then take the oil and pour some on his head to (dedicate him/set him apart).
8 Ìwọ yóò sì mú àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ ìwọ yóò sì fi aṣọ àwọ̀tẹ́lẹ̀ wọ̀ wọ́n
Then bring his sons and put the long-sleeved tunics/gowns on them.
9 ìwọ yóò sì fi fìlà dé wọn ni orí. Nígbà náà fi ọ̀já àmùrè di Aaroni àti àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀. Iṣẹ́ àlùfáà yóò máa jẹ́ tiwọn ní ìlànà títí ayé. “Báyìí ni ìwọ yóò sì ya Aaroni àti àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ sí mímọ́.
Put the sashes/waistbands around their waists and the caps on their heads. That is the ritual by which you are to (dedicate them/set them apart) to be priests. Aaron and his male descendants must serve me [by being] priests forever.
10 “Ìwọ yóò sì mú akọ màlúù wá síwájú àgọ́ àjọ, Aaroni àti àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ yóò sì fi ọwọ́ wọn lé akọ màlúù ní orí.
“Then bring the young bull to the entrance of the Sacred Tent. Tell Aaron and his sons to put their hands on the head of the young bull.
11 Ìwọ yóò sì pa àwọn akọ màlúù náà níwájú Olúwa ní ẹnu-ọ̀nà àgọ́ àjọ.
Then, while they do that, kill the young bull [by slitting its throat], and catch/drain the blood in a bowl.
12 Ìwọ yóò sì mú nínú ẹ̀jẹ̀ akọ màlúù náà, ìwọ yóò sì fi ìka rẹ tọ́ ọ sára ìwo pẹpẹ náà, kí o sì da gbogbo ẹ̀jẹ̀ tókù sí ìsàlẹ̀ pẹpẹ náà.
Take some of that blood with your finger and smear it on the projections of the altar. Throw/Splash the rest of the blood against the base of the altar.
13 Kí o mú gbogbo ọ̀rá tí ó yí inú ká, èyí tí ó bo ẹ̀dọ̀ àti ìwé méjèèjì pẹ̀lú ọ̀rá tí ó wà lára wọn, ìwọ yóò sì sun wọ́n lórí pẹpẹ.
Take all the fat that covers the inner organs of the young bull, the best part of the liver, and the two kidneys with the fat on them, and burn all these on the altar [as an offering to me].
14 Ṣùgbọ́n fi iná sun ẹran akọ màlúù, awọ rẹ̀ àti ìgbẹ́ rẹ̀ lẹ́yìn òde. Ẹbọ ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ ni.
But the meat of the young bull and its hide and intestines must be burned outside the camp. That will be an offering to forgive the guilt of your sins.
15 “Ìwọ yóò sì mú àgbò kan, Aaroni àti àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ yóò sì gbọ́wọ́ lé orí àgbò náà.
“Then select one of the rams, and tell Aaron and his sons to put their hands on the head of the ram.
16 Ìwọ yóò sì pa àgbò náà, ìwọ yóò sì mú ẹ̀jẹ̀ rẹ̀, ìwọ yóò sì fi wọ́n pẹpẹ náà yíká.
Then kill the ram [by slitting its throat]. Catch/Drain some of the blood and splash it against all four sides of the altar.
17 Ìwọ yóò sì gé àgbò náà sí wẹ́wẹ́, ìwọ yóò sì fọ inú àti àwọn ẹsẹ̀ rẹ̀, ìwọ yóò sì tò wọ́n pẹ̀lú orí rẹ̀ lé ara wọn.
Then cut the ram into pieces. Wash its inner organs and its rear legs and put those with the head
18 Nígbà náà ni ìwọ yóò sun àgbò náà lórí pẹpẹ. Ẹbọ sísun ni sí Olúwa, olóòórùn dídùn ni, ẹbọ ti a fi iná ṣe sí Olúwa ni.
and burn those pieces [completely] on the altar with the rest of the ram. That will be an offering to me, Yahweh, and the smell will please me.
19 “Ìwọ yóò mú àgbò kejì, Aaroni àti àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ yóò fi ọwọ́ wọn lé àgbò náà lórí.
“Take the other ram [that was selected for these rituals], and tell Aaron and his sons to put their hands on the ram’s head.
20 Ìwọ yóò sì pa àgbò náà, ìwọ yóò mú nínú ẹ̀jẹ̀ rẹ̀, ìwọ yóò sì tọ́ ọ sí etí ọ̀tún Aaroni àti àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀, sí àtàǹpàkò ọwọ́ ọ̀tún wọn, àti sí àtàǹpàkò ẹsẹ̀ ọ̀tún wọn. Ìwọ yóò sì fi ẹ̀jẹ̀ wọ́n pẹpẹ náà yíká.
Then kill the ram by slitting its throat, and drain the blood [into a bowl]. Smear some of the blood on the lobe of the right ears of Aaron and his sons, and on the thumbs of their right hands, and on the big toes of their right feet. Throw/Splash the rest of the blood against the four sides of the altar.
21 Ìwọ yóò mú nínú ẹ̀jẹ̀ tí ó wà lórí pẹpẹ àti nínú òróró ìtasórí, ìwọ yóò sì wọ́n ọn sára Aaroni àti sára aṣọ rẹ̀, sára àwọn ọmọ rẹ àti sára aṣọ wọn. Nígbà náà ni òun àti àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ àti aṣọ wọn yóò di mímọ́.
Wipe up some of the blood that is on the altar, mix it with some of the oil for anointing, and sprinkle it on Aaron and his clothes, and on his sons and their clothes. By doing that, you will dedicate them and their clothes [to me].
22 “Ìwọ yóò mú lára ọ̀rá àgbò náà, ìrù tí ó lọ́ràá, ọ̀rá tí ó yí inú ká, èyí ti ó bo ẹ̀dọ̀, ìwé méjèèjì pẹ̀lú ọ̀rá tí ó wà lára wọn àti itan ọ̀tún. (Èyí ni àgbò fún ìyàsímímọ́.)
“Also, cut off the ram’s fat and its fat tail and the fat that covers the inner organs, the best part of the liver, the two kidneys with the fat on them, and the right thigh.
23 Láti inú apẹ̀rẹ̀ ìṣù àkàrà aláìwú, èyí tí ó wà níwájú Olúwa, mú ìṣù kan, àkàrà tí a fi òróró dín àti àkàrà fẹ́lẹ́fẹ́lẹ́ kan.
Take also one of each of the kinds of bread [that was baked]—one made with no oil, one with oil, and one thin wafer.
24 Ìwọ yóò fi gbogbo rẹ̀ lé Aaroni àti àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ lọ́wọ́, ìwọ yóò sì fì wọ́n gẹ́gẹ́ bí ẹbọ fífì níwájú Olúwa.
Put all these things in the hands of Aaron and his sons. [Then tell them to] lift them up [high] to dedicate them to me.
25 Nígbà náà ni ìwọ yóò sì gbà wọ́n ní ọwọ́ wọn, ìwọ yóò sì sun wọ́n lórí pẹpẹ pẹ̀lú ẹbọ sísun fún òórùn dídùn níwájú Olúwa, ẹbọ ti a fi iná sun sí Olúwa.
Then take them from their hands and burn them on the altar, on top of the other things [that were placed there]. That [also] will be an offering to me, and its smell will please me.
26 Ìwọ yóò sì mú igẹ̀ àgbò ìyàsímímọ́ Aaroni, ìwọ yóò si fí ì ni ẹbọ fífì níwájú Olúwa; ìpín tìrẹ ni èyí.
Then take the meat of the ribs of the second ram that was killed, and lift it up [high] as an offering to me. But then this part of the animal will be for you [to eat].
27 “Ìwọ yóò sì ya igẹ̀ ẹbọ fífì náà sí mímọ́, àti ìtàn ẹbọ à gbé sọ sókè tí a fì, tí a sì gbé sọ sókè nínú àgbò ìyàsímímọ́ náà, àní nínú èyí tí í ṣe Aaroni àti nínú èyí tí ì ṣe tí àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀.
Then take the meat of the ribs, the other thigh of the first ram that was sacrificed to (dedicate/set apart) the priests, and the ram whose other parts were lifted high to show that they were an offering to me; and set the meat of the ribs and thigh apart for Aaron and his sons, for them to eat.
28 Èyí ni yóò sì máa ṣe ìpín ti Aaroni àti àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ láti ọwọ́ àwọn ọmọ Israẹli nígbà gbogbo. Nítorí ẹbọ à gbé sọ sókè ni ẹbọ tí yóò ṣì ṣe èyí ni ẹbọ tí àwọn ọmọ Israẹli yóò máa ṣe sí Olúwa láti inú ẹbọ àlàáfíà wọn.
In the future, whenever the Israeli people present to me, Yahweh, offerings to maintain fellowship with me, the ribs and the thigh [of animals that they sacrifice] will be for Aaron and his male descendants [to eat].
29 “Aṣọ mímọ́ Aaroni yóò jẹ́ ti irú àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀, nítorí kí a lè máa fi òróró yàn wọ́n kí a sì lè máa yà wọ́n sì mímọ́.
“After Aaron [dies], the special clothes that he wore will belong to his sons. They are to wear those clothes when they are (set apart/dedicated) [to become priests].
30 Ọmọ rẹ̀ tí ó bá jẹ àlùfáà ní ipò rẹ̀, tí ó bá wọ̀ yóò máa sì wá sí àgọ́ àjọ láti ṣiṣẹ́ ní Ibi Mímọ́, yóò sì máa wọ̀ wọ́n ní ọjọ́ méje.
Aaron’s son who becomes The Supreme Priest and enters the Sacred Tent and performs rituals in the Holy Place must [stay in the Sacred Tent], wearing these special clothes, for seven days.
31 “Ìwọ yóò sì mú àgbò fún ìyàsímímọ́, ìwọ yóò sì bọ ẹran rẹ̀ ní ibi mímọ́ kan.
“Take the meat of the other ram that was sacrificed to (set apart/dedicate) Aaron and his sons, and boil it in the courtyard.
32 Ní ẹnu-ọ̀nà àgọ́ àjọ ni Aaroni àti àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ yóò ti jẹ ẹran àgbò náà àti àkàrà náà tí ó wà nínú apẹ̀rẹ̀.
After it is cooked, Aaron and his sons must eat it, along with the bread that is left in the basket, at the entrance of the Sacred Tent.
33 Wọn yóò sì jẹ nǹkan wọ̀nyí èyí tí a fi ṣe ètùtù náà fún ìyàsímímọ́ àti ìsọdimímọ́ wọn. Ṣùgbọ́n àlejò ni kò gbọdọ̀ jẹ nínú rẹ̀, nítorí pé mímọ́ ni.
They must eat the meat of the ram that was sacrificed to forgive them for [their sins] when they were dedicated to do this work. They are the only ones who are permitted to eat this meat. [Those who are not priests are not allowed to eat it], because it is dedicated to me.
34 Bí ohun kan nínú ẹran àgbò ìyàsímímọ́ tàbí nínú àkàrà náà bá kù di òwúrọ̀, nígbà náà ni kí ìwọ fi iná sun wọn. A kò gbọdọ̀ jẹ ẹ́, nítorí mímọ́ ni.
If any of this meat or some of the bread is not eaten that night, no one is permitted to eat any of it the next day. It must be completely burned, because it is sacred/dedicated to me.
35 “Báyìí ni ìwọ yóò ṣì ṣe fún Aaroni àti àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ bí ohun gbogbo ti mo paláṣẹ fún ọ, ọjọ́ méje ni ìwọ yóò fi yà wọ́n sí mímọ́.
“Those are the rituals that you(sg) must perform during those seven days when you dedicate Aaron and his sons for this work. You must do everything that I have commanded you.
36 Ìwọ yóò sì máa pa akọ màlúù kọ̀ọ̀kan ní ojoojúmọ́ bí ẹbọ ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ láti ṣe ètùtù. Ìwọ yóò sì wẹ pẹpẹ mọ́ nípa ṣíṣe ètùtù fún un, ìwọ yóò sì ta òróró sí i láti sọ ọ́ dí mímọ́.
Each of those seven days you must also sacrifice a young bull as an offering to me, in order that I may forgive sins. Also, you must make another offering (to make the altar pure in my sight/in order that I will consider the altar to be pure). You must also anoint the altar with olive oil, to (set it apart/dedicate it).
37 Ní ọjọ́ méje ni ìwọ yóò ṣe ètùtù sí pẹpẹ náà, ìwọ yóò sì sọ ọ́ di mímọ́. Nígbà náà ni pẹpẹ náà yóò jẹ́ mímọ́ jùlọ, àti ohunkóhun tí ó bá fi ọwọ́ kàn án yóò jẹ́ mímọ́.
Perform these rituals every day for seven days, to (set apart/dedicate) the altar and make it pure. If you do not do that, anyone or anything that touches the altar will become taboo.
38 “Èyí ni ìwọ yóò máa fi rú ẹbọ ní orí pẹpẹ náà: Ọ̀dọ́-àgùntàn méjì ọlọ́dún kan ni ojoojúmọ́ láéláé.
“You must also sacrifice lambs and burn them on the altar. Each of those [seven] days you must sacrifice two lambs.
39 Ọ̀dọ́-àgùntàn kan ni ìwọ yóò fi rú ẹbọ ní òwúrọ̀ àti ọ̀dọ́-àgùntàn èkejì ní àṣálẹ́.
One lamb must be sacrificed in the morning, and one must be sacrificed in the evening.
40 Pẹ̀lú ọ̀dọ́-àgùntàn ti àkọ́kọ́ rú ẹbọ ìdámẹ́wàá òsùwọ̀n ìyẹ̀fun dídára tí a fi ìdámẹ́rin hínì òróró lára olifi tí a gún, àti ìdámẹ́rin hínì wáìnì bí ẹbọ mímu.
With the first lamb, also offer (2 pounds/1 kilogram) of finely-ground wheat flour mixed with one quart/liter of the best kind of olive oil, and one quart/liter of wine as an offering.
41 Ọ̀dọ́-àgùntàn kejì ni kí ìwọ kí ó pa rú ẹbọ ní àṣálẹ́ ìwọ yóò sì ṣe sí í gẹ́gẹ́ bí ẹbọ jíjẹ àti ẹbọ mímu bí ti òwúrọ̀ fún òórùn dídùn, ẹbọ tí a fi iná ṣe ni sí Olúwa.
In the evening, when you sacrifice the other lamb, offer the same amounts of flour, olive oil, and wine as you did in the morning. This will be an offering to me, Yahweh, that will be burned, and its smell will please me.
42 “Fún ìrandíran tó ń bọ̀, ni ẹ ó máa ṣe ẹbọ sísun nígbà gbogbo ní ẹnu-ọ̀nà àgọ́ àjọ níwájú Olúwa. Níbẹ̀ èmi yóò pàdé yín, èmi yóò sì bá a yín sọ̀rọ̀;
You [and your descendants] must continue making these offerings to me, Yahweh, throughout all future generations. You must offer them at the entrance of the Sacred Tent. That is where I will meet with you and speak to you.
43 níbẹ̀ sì tún ni èmi yóò pàdé àwọn ọmọ Israẹli, a ó sì fi ògo mi ya àgọ́ náà sí mímọ́.
That is where I will meet with the Israeli people, and the brilliant light of my presence will cause that place to be holy/sacred.
44 “Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni èmi yóò ya àgọ́ àjọ náà sí mímọ́ àti pẹpẹ náà, èmi yóò sì ya Aaroni àti àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ sí mímọ́ láti máa ṣe iṣẹ́ bí àlùfáà fún mi.
I will dedicate the Sacred Tent and the altar. I will also dedicate Aaron and his sons to serve me [by being] priests.
45 Nígbà náà ni èmi yóò máa gbé láàrín àwọn ọmọ Israẹli, èmi yóò sì máa ṣe Ọlọ́run wọn.
