Oihanakahuna 1

1 KAHEA mai la o Iehova ia Mose, olelo mai la hoi ia ia mai loko mai o ka halelewa o ke anaina, i mai la,

While Moses/I was [standing near the entrance] to the Sacred Tent, Yahweh called to him/me from inside the tent. He said to Moses/me,

2 E olelo aku oe i na mamo a Iseraela, e i aku hoi ia lakou, Ina e lawe kekahi kanaka o oukou i ka mohai ia Iehova, no na holoholona e lawe ai oukou i ka oukou mohai, no ka ohana bipi, a no ka ohana hipa,

“Tell this to the Israeli people: ‘When any of you brings an offering to Yahweh, bring one of your sheep or goats or cattle.

3 Ina o kana mohai he mohaikuni noloko o ka ohana bipi, e mohai oia i ke kane kina ole: e mohai aku hoi oia ia no kona makemake iho ma ka puka o ka halelewa o ke anaina, ma ke alo o Iehova.

‘If what you are offering is a bull that will be completely burned [on the altar], it must not have any defects. You must take it to the entrance to the Sacred Tent, in order that it will be acceptable to Yahweh.

4 A e kau ae oia i kona lima maluna o ke poo o ka mohaikuni; a e maliuia nona e hooliloia i kalahala nona.

You must lay your hands on the head of the bull. When you do that, Yahweh will accept [its death in your place] to forgive/pardon you for the sins that you have committed.

5 A e pepehi oia i ka bipi kane ma ke alo o Iehova; a o lawe mai na kahuna, ka Aarona mau keiki, i ke koko, a e pipi i ke koko a puni maluna iho o ke Kuahu, ka mea ma ka puka o ka halelewa o ke anaina.

You must slaughter the bull in front of Yahweh. Then Aaron’s sons, who are priests, will bring the blood and sprinkle it against all sides of the altar near the entrance to the Sacred Tent.

6 A e lole oia i ka ili o ka mohaikuni, a e okioki i ka mohai i mau apana.

You must remove the skin of the animal and cut the animal into pieces. You must wash the inner parts and the legs of the bull.

7 A e kau ae na keiki a Aarona ke kahuna i ke ahi maluna o ke kuahu, a e kau pono i ka wahie maluna o ke ahi.

Then Aaron’s sons will put wood on the altar and light a fire.

8 A e kau na kahuna, ka Aarona mau keiki i na apana, i ke poo, a me ke kaikea, a pono maluna o ka wahie ka mea maluna o ke ahi, ka mea maluna o ke kuahu.

Then they will arrange the pieces, including the head and the fat, on the burning wood.

9 Aka e holoi oia i kona naau, a me kona mau wawae, me ka wai; a e kuni ke kahuna i na mea a pau maluna o ke kuahu, i mohaikuni, he inohai i kaumahaia ma ke ahi, he mea ala ono ia Iehova.

Then one of the priests will completely burn all of it on the altar. And the aroma will be pleasing to Yahweh.

10 A ina no loko o ka ohana o na hipa, a o na kao kona mohai i mohaikuni, e lawe mai oia ia he kane kina ole,

‘If you are offering a sheep or a goat, it must be a male without any defect.

11 A e pepehi oia ia ia ma ka aoao kukulu akau ma ke alo o Iehova; a e pipi na kahuna ka Aarona mau keiki i kona koko a puni maluna o ke kuahu.

You must slaughter it in front of Yahweh, on the north side of the altar, [and drain all the blood into a bowl]. Then Aaron’s sons will sprinkle the blood against all sides of the altar.

12 A e okioki iho oia i mau apana una me kona poo a me kona konahua: a e kau ke kahuna ia mau mea a pono, maluna o ka wahie, ka mea maluna o ke ahi, ka mea maluna o ke kuahu.

You must cut the animal into pieces. You must wash the inner parts and the legs of the animal. Then the priests will arrange the pieces, including the head and the fat, on the burning wood.

13 Aka e holoi oia i ka naau, a me kona mau wawae me ka wai; a e lawe pu mai ke kahuna a e kuni maluna iho o ke kuahu: he mohaikuni ia, he mohai i kaumahaia ma ke ahi, he mea ala ono ia Iehova.

Then one of the priests will take all of it and completely burn all of it on the altar. And the aroma as it burns will be pleasing to Yahweh.

14 A ina no na manu ka mohaikuni kona mohai ia Iehova, alaila e lawe mai oia i kana mohai no na kuhukuku, a i ole ia, no na nunu opiopio.

‘If what you are offering to Yahweh is a bird, you must offer a dove or a young pigeon.

15 A e lawe mai ke kahuna ia i ke kuahu, a e niki i kona poo, a e kuni aku ia ma ke kuahu, a e uwiia kona koko ma ka aoao o ke kuahu.

The priest will take it to the altar and wring/twist off its head. Then he will burn the head on the altar. He will drain out the bird’s blood onto the side of the altar.

16 A e unuhi ae oia i kona opu a me kona haumia, a e holoi ae ia ma ka aoao o ke kuahu, ma ka hikina, ma kahi o ka lehu.

Then he will remove the bird’s (craw/food-grinding pouch) and what is inside it, and throw it on the east side of the altar, where the ashes are thrown.

17 A e mahele oia ia ia me kona mau eheu, aole hoi e hookaawale loa; a e kuni ke kahuna ia ma ke kuahu maluna o ka wahie ka mea iluna o ke ahi; he mohaikuni ia, he mohai kaumahaia ma ke ahi, he mea ala ono ia Iehova.

Then he will grasp the bird’s wings and partially tear the bird open. Then he will burn it completely in the fire on the altar. And the aroma will be pleasing to Yahweh.’
