Amanani 4
1 UThixo wathi kuMosi lo-Aroni:
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese mo ʻElone, ʻo pehē,
2 “Balani ingxenye yabaLevi abangamaKhohathi libabale ngosendo langezindlu zabo.
Mo lau ʻae ngaahi foha ʻo Kohate mei he ngaahi foha ʻo Livai, ʻi honau ngaahi faʻahinga, ʻo fakatatau ki he fale ʻo ʻenau ngaahi tamai,
3 Balani wonke amadoda kusukela kwabaleminyaka engamatshumi amathathu kusiya kwabaleminyaka engamatshumi amahlanu yokuzalwa abeza bezosebenza emsebenzini wethente lokuhlangana.
Mei he taʻu ʻe tolungofulu ʻo fai hake, ʻio, ʻo aʻu ki he taʻu ʻe nimangofulu, ʻakinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku ʻalu ki he tau, ke fai ʻae ngāue ʻi he fale fehikitaki ʻoe kakai.
4 Lo yiwo umsebenzi ozakwenziwa ngamaKhohathi ethenteni lokuhlangana, ukulondoloza yonke into engcwelengcwele.
Pea ko e ngāue eni ʻae ngaahi foha ʻo Kohate ʻi he fale fehikitaki ʻoe kakai, ʻi he ngaahi meʻa toputapu.
5 Nxa kuthuthwa kusukwa ezihonqweni, u-Aroni lamadodana akhe kabangene bayekwethula ikhetheni elisithileyo basibekele ibhokisi lobufakazi ngalo.
Pea ʻoka hiki atu ʻae ʻapitanga, ʻe haʻu ʻa ʻElone, mo hono ngaahi foha, kenau vete hifo ʻae fakapulonga, ʻo ʻuʻufi ʻaki ia ʻae puha ʻoe fuakava:
6 Lokhu bazakugubuzela ngezikhumba zezinyamazana, bendlale ilembu eliluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka phezu kwalokho besebefaka izibambo endaweni yazo.
Pea ʻe tuku ki ai ʻae kiliʻi pasia ke ʻuʻufi ʻaki ia, pea ʻe ʻufiʻufi ʻaki ia ʻae kofu lanumoana, pea ʻe ʻai ki ai hono ʻakau haʻamo.
7 Phezu kwetafula yoBukhona bukaThixo kumele bendlale ilembu eliluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka bafake phezu kwalo imiganu, izinditshi lengubhe, lenkezo zeminikelo enathwayo; kuthi lesosinkwa esihlala sikhonapho sisale phezu kwayo.
Pea ko e palepale ʻoe ma ʻoe ʻao tenau ʻuʻufi ʻaki ʻae kofu lanumoana, pea tuku ki ai ʻae ngaahi ipu, mo e ngaahi sēpuni, mo e ngaahi ipu louluo, pea mo e ngaahi tāpuni ke ʻufiʻufi ʻaki; pea ʻe tuku ki ai ʻae ma ʻoe ʻao:
8 Phezu kwalokhu bazakwendlala ilembu elibomvu, bembese lokho ngezikhumba zezinyamazana besebefaka izibambo ezindaweni zazo.
Pea tenau ʻuʻufi ʻaki ia ʻae kofu kulaʻahoʻaho, pea ʻe toe ʻuʻufi ʻaki ia ʻae kiliʻi pasia, pea ʻe ʻai ki ai hono ʻakau haʻamo.
9 Kumele bathathe ilembu eliluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka bembese ngalo uluthi lwesibane sokukhanyisa, kanye lezibane zalo, izintambo zesibane kanye lezibambiso zakhona, lemiganu, lezitsha zamafutha zokuthelisa kuso.
Pea tenau ʻave ʻae kofu lanumoana, ʻo ʻuʻufi ʻaki ʻae tuʻunga maama, mo hono ngaahi foʻi maama, mo hono ngaahi hikofi, mo e ngaahi tukuʻanga ʻoe maama helekosi, pea mo e ipu lolo kotoa pē, ʻaia ʻoku nau ngāueʻaki ki ai:
10 Besebelugoqela kanye lezinto zalo zonke ngezikhumba zezinyamazana balufakele izibambo zokuthwala.
Pea tenau tuku ia mo hono ngaahi ipu kotoa pē ke ʻuʻufi ʻaki ʻae kiliʻi pasia, pea ʻe tuku ia ki ha fata.
11 Phezu kwe-alithari legolide kabendlale ilembu eliluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka bakugoqele ngezikhumba zezinyamazana besebefaka izibambo zokuthwalisa endaweni yazo.
Pea tenau faliki ʻaki ʻae feilaulauʻanga koula ʻae kofu lanumoana, pea toe ʻuʻufi ʻaki ia ʻae kiliʻi pasia, pea ʻe tuku ki ai hono ʻakau haʻamo.
12 Bazathatha zonke izinto zokusebenzisa endaweni engcwelengcwele, bazigoqele ngelembu eliluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka, bembese lokho ngezikhumba zezinyamazana bafake phezu kwethala lokuthwalisa.
Pea tenau toʻo ai ʻae nāunau kotoa pē ʻoe ngāue, ʻaia ʻoku nau ngāueʻaki ʻi he faletapu, pea ʻe tuku ia ki ha kofu lanumoana, pea ʻe ʻuʻufi ʻaki ia ʻae pulonga kiliʻi pasia, pea ʻe tuku ia ki ha fata.
13 Kumele babuthe umlotha bawususe phezu kwe-alithari elilithusi besebesendlala ilembu eliyibubende phezu kwalo.
Pea tenau ʻave ʻae efuefu mei he feilaulauʻanga, pea ʻe ʻuʻufi ʻaki ia ʻae kofu paʻuhiʻuhi:
14 Besebefaka phezu kwalo zonke izitsha ezisetshenziswa emsebenzini we-alithari, kuhlanganisa lezindengezi zeziko, izitsha zokosa inyama, amafotsholo lemiganu yokuchelisa. Phezu kwalo kumele bendlale isembeso sezikhumba zezinyamazana babe sebefaka izibambo zokuthwalisa endaweni yazo.
Pea tenau tuku ki ai hono ngaahi ipu kotoa pē, ʻaia ʻoku nau ngāueʻaki ki ai, ʻio, ʻae ngaahi ipu ʻaiʻanga afi, mo e ngaahi huhu, pea mo e ngaahi huo, pea mo e ngaahi ipu luoluo, ko e ngaahi ipu kotoa pē ʻoe feilaulauʻanga; pea tenau ʻuʻufi ʻaki ia ʻae kiliʻi pasia, pea tuku ki ai hono ʻakau haʻamo.
15 Ngemva kokuba u-Aroni lamadodana akhe sebeqedile ukwembesa impahla zonke ezendawo engcwele lazozonke izinto ezingcwele, kanye lokuthi sebelungele ukusuka, amaKhohathi yiwo okumele eze azothwala. Kodwa akumelanga bathinte izinto ezingcwele ngoba bazakufa. AmaKhohathi azathwala lezozinto ezisethenteni lokuhlangana.
Pea ka fakaʻosi ʻe ʻElone mo hono ngaahi foha ʻae fakapulonga ʻoe faletapu, pea mo hono ngaahi nāunau kotoa pē, pea ka hiki atu ʻae ʻapitanga; ʻe toki haʻu ʻae ngaahi foha ʻo Kohate ʻo fata ia: kaeʻoua naʻa nau ala ki ha meʻa tapu, telia naʻa nau mate ai. Ko e ngaahi meʻa ni ko e kavenga ia ʻae ngaahi foha ʻo Kohate ʻi he fale fehikitaki ʻoe kakai.
16 U-Eliyazari indodana ka-Aroni, umphristi, uzakhangela amafutha esibane, impepha, umnikelo ojayelekileyo wamabele lamafutha okugcoba abakhethiweyo. Uzagcina ithabanikeli ngonanzelelo layo yonke into ephakathi kwalo, kanye lempahla ezingcwele lezitsha zalo.”
Pea ko e ngāue ʻa ʻEliesa ko e foha ʻo ʻElone ko e taulaʻeiki, ko e lolo ki he maama, pea mo e meʻa namu kakala, pea mo e feilaulau meʻakai ʻoe ʻaho, pea mo e lolo ʻoe fakanofo, pea mo e pule ʻoe fale fehikitaki, pea mo e ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē ʻi ai, ʻi he faletapu, pea mo hono ngaahi nāunau ʻo ia.
17 UThixo watshela uMosi lo-Aroni wathi,
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese mo ʻElone, ʻo pehē,
18 “Nanzelelani ukuthi izizwe zosendo lwamaKhohathi azehlukaniswa labaLevi.
“ʻOua naʻa mo vaheʻi ʻae faʻahinga ʻoe ngaahi fānau ʻa Kohate mei he kau Livai:
19 Lokhu kuyikuthi baphile bengafi nxa bethe basondela phansi kwezinto ezingcwelengcwele, balungiseleni lokhu: U-Aroni lamadodana akhe bazakuya endaweni engcwele bayekwabela indoda yinye ngayinye umsebenzi wayo kanye lalokho okumele bakuthwale.
Ka ko eni ia te mou fai kiate kinautolu, koeʻuhi kenau moʻui, pea ʻikai mate, ʻoka nau ka haʻu ki he ngaahi meʻa toputapu: ʻe ʻalu ʻa ʻElone mo hono ngaahi foha ʻo tuʻutuʻuni kiate kinautolu taki taha ʻenau ngāue mo ʻenau kavenga:
20 Kodwa amaKhohathi akumelanga angene ukuthi ayebona izinto ezingcwele, loba okomzuzwana nje kuphela, ngoba bazakufa.”
Ka ʻe ʻikai tenau hū atu ke mamata ʻoka ʻuʻufi ʻae ngaahi meʻa toputapu, telia naʻa nau mate.”
21 UThixo wathi kuMosi,
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, ʻo pehē,
22 “Bala njalo amaGeshoni ngezindlu langosendo lwawo.
Ke ke lau foki ʻae ngaahi foha ʻo Kesoni, ʻi he fale ʻo ʻenau ngaahi tamai, ʻo fakatatau mo ʻenau ngaahi fānau;
23 Bala wonke amadoda kusukela kwabaleminyaka engamatshumi amathathu kusiya kwabaleminyaka engamatshumi amahlanu yokuzalwa labo abezayo ukuzosebenza ethenteni lokuHlangana.
Ke ke lau ʻakinautolu mei he tolungofulu taʻu ʻo aʻu ki he taʻu ʻe nimangofulu; ʻakinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku hū ke fai ʻae ngāue, ke fai ʻae ngāue ʻi he fale fehikitaki ʻoe kakai.
24 Lo ngumsebenzi okumele wenziwe ngabosendo lwamaGeshoni ekusebenzeni kwabo lekuthwaleni kwabo imithwalo:
Pea ko e ngāue eni ʻae faʻahinga ʻoe kau Kesoni, ke tauhi, mo kavenga ʻaki:
25 Bazathwala amakhetheni ethabanikeli, ithente lokuhlangana, isembeso salo kanye lesangaphandle esezikhumba zezinyamazana, amakhetheni entuba yethente lokuhlangana,
Pea tenau fua ʻae ngaahi puipui ʻoe fale fehikitaki, pea mo e fale fehikitaki ʻoe kakai, ko hono fakapulonga, pea mo e ʻuʻufi kiliʻi pasia ʻoku ʻuʻufi ʻaki ia, pea mo e puipui ʻoe matapā ʻoe fale fehikitaki ʻoe kakai,
26 amakhetheni eguma elihonqolozele ithabanikeli le-alithari, ikhetheni lesango, izintambo lakho konke okusetshenziswa kulo umsebenzi. AmaGeshoni azakwenza konke okumele kwenziwe ngalezizinto.
Pea mo e ngaahi puipui ʻoe lotoʻā, pea mo e puipui ke matapā ʻaki ʻi he hūʻanga ʻoe lotoʻā, ʻaia ʻoku ofi ki he fale fehikitaki pea ʻoku takatakai ʻi he veʻe feilaulauʻanga, pea mo hono ngaahi maea, pea mo e nāunau kotoa pē ʻo ʻenau tauhi, pea mo e meʻa kotoa pē kuo ngaohi maʻanautolu: ʻe pehē ʻenau tauhi.
27 Imisebenzi yabo yonke abayenzayo, kumbe yikuthwala kumbe ngumsebenzi othile, bazayenza ngokuqondisa kuka-Aroni lamadodana akhe. Uzabapha kube ngumlandu wabo ukuthwala lokho ozabe uthe bakuthwale.
ʻE ʻi he tuʻutuʻuni ʻa ʻElone mo hono ngaahi foha ʻae ngāue kotoa pē ʻae ngaahi foha ʻo Kesoni, mo ʻenau kavenga kotoa pē, pea mo ʻenau tauhi kotoa pē: pea te mou tuʻutuʻuni kiate kinautolu ʻenau kavenga kotoa pē.
28 Lokhu kuzakuba ngumsebenzi wabosendo lwamaGeshoni ethenteni lokuhlangana. Umsebenzi wabo bazawenza ngokuqondisa kuka-Ithamari indodana ka-Aroni, umphristi.”
Pea ko e ngāue eni ʻae faʻahinga ʻoe ngaahi foha ʻo Kesoni ʻi he fale fehikitaki ʻoe kakai: pea ʻe puleʻi ʻenau ngāue ʻe ʻItama ko e foha ʻo ʻElone ko e taulaʻeiki.
29 “Bala amaMerari ngosendo langezindlu zawo.
Pea ko e ngaahi foha ʻo Melali, ke ke lau ʻakinautolu ʻi honau ngaahi faʻahinga, ʻi he fale ʻo ʻenau ngaahi tamai;
30 Bala wonke amadoda kusukela kwabaleminyaka engamatshumi amathathu kusiya kwabaleminyaka engamatshumi amahlanu yokuzalwa abezayo ukusebenza ethenteni lokuhlangana.
Ke ke lau ʻakinautolu mei he tolungofulu taʻu, ʻo fai hake, ʻio, ʻo aʻu ki he taʻu ʻe nimangofulu, ʻakinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku hū ke fai ʻae ngāue ʻoe fale fehikitaki ʻoe kakai.
31 Lo yiwo ozakuba ngumsebenzi wabo ethenteni lokuhlangana: ukuthwala amathala ethabanikeli, imithando yalo, izinsika lezisekelo,
Pea ko e fakahā eni ʻo ʻenau kavenga, ʻo fakatatau ki heʻenau ngāue kotoa pē ʻi he fale fehikitaki ʻoe kakai; ko e ngaahi laupapa ʻoe fale fehikitaki, pea mo hono ngaahi ʻakau fakamaʻu, pea mo hono ngaahi pou, pea mo hono ngaahi tuʻungaʻi pou,
32 kanye lezinsika ezihonqolozele iguma kanye lezisekelo zazo, izikhonkwane zethente, amagoda, izitsha zakhona lakho konke okuhambelana lokusetshenziswa kwazo. Batshengise bonke munye ngamunye lezozinto abafanele bazithwale.
Pea mo e ngaahi ʻotu pou takatakai ʻoe lotoʻā, mo hono ngaahi tuʻungaʻi pou, mo hono ngaahi faʻo, mo hono ngaahi maea, fakataha mo honau nāunau kotoa pē, pea mo ʻenau ngāue kotoa pē: pea te mo lau ʻi honau hingoa ʻae ngaahi meʻa ʻoe ngāue ʻo ʻenau kavenga.
33 Lo yiwo umsebenzi ozakwenziwa ngabosendo lwamaMerari ekusebenzeni kwabo ethenteni lokuhlangana beqondiswa ngu-Ithamari indodana ka-Aroni, umphristi.”
Pea ko e ngāue eni ʻae fānau ʻae ngaahi foha ʻo Melali, ʻo fakatatau ki heʻenau ngāue kotoa pē ʻi he fale fehikitaki ʻoe kakai, ʻi he pule ʻa ʻItama ko e foha ʻo ʻElone ko e taulaʻeiki.
34 UMosi, u-Aroni labakhokheli babantu babala amaKhohathi ngosendo langezindlu zawo.
Pea naʻe lau ʻe Mōsese mo ʻElone mo e houʻeiki ʻoe kakai ʻae ngaahi foha ʻoe kau Kohate ʻi honau ngaahi faʻahinga, pea mo e fale ʻo ʻenau ngaahi tamai,
35 Wonke amadoda aleminyaka esukela kwabaleminyaka engamatshumi amathathu kusiya kwabaleminyaka engamatshumi amahlanu abezayo ukusebenza ethenteni lokuhlangana,
Mei he taʻu ʻe tolungofulu ʻo fai hake, ʻio, ʻo aʻu ki he taʻu ʻe nimangofulu, ʻakinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku hū ke fai ʻae ngāue, ki he ngāue ʻi he fale fehikitaki ʻoe kakai:
36 bebalwa ngensendo, babazinkulungwane ezimbili lamakhulu ayisikhombisa alamatshumi amahlanu.
Pea ko kinautolu naʻe lau ʻiate kinautolu ʻi honau ngaahi faʻahinga ko e toko ua afe mo e toko fitungeau ma nimangofulu.
37 Leli linani eligcweleyo lalabo abosendo lwamaKhohathi abasebenza ethenteni lokuhlangana. UMosi lo-Aroni babala njengokulaywa kwabo nguThixo etshela uMosi.
Ko kinautolu ni naʻe lau ʻoe fānau ʻoe kau Kohate, ʻakinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku faʻa fai ʻae ngāue ʻi he fale fehikitaki ʻoe kakai, ʻakinautolu naʻe lau ʻe Mōsese mo ʻElone, ʻo fakatatau ki he fekau ʻa Sihova ʻi he nima ʻo Mōsese.
38 AmaGeshoni abalwa ngensendo langezindlu zawo.
Pea ko kinautolu naʻe lau ʻoe ngaahi foha ʻo Kesoni, ʻi honau ngaahi faʻahinga, pea mo e fale ʻo ʻenau ngaahi tamai,
39 Wonke amadoda aleminyaka yokuzalwa engamatshumi amathathu kusiya kwabaleminyaka engamatshumi amahlanu ababesebenza ethenteni lokuhlangana,
Mei he taʻu ʻe tolungofulu ʻo fai hake, ʻio, ʻo aʻu ki he taʻu ʻe nimangofulu, ʻakinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku hū ke fai ʻae ngāue, ki he ngāue ʻi he fale fehikitaki ʻoe kakai,
40 bebalwa ngensendo langezindlu zabo, babazinkulungwane ezimbili lamakhulu ayisithupha alamatshumi amathathu.
ʻIo, ʻakinautolu naʻe lau ʻiate kinautolu, ʻi honau ngaahi faʻahinga, mo e fale ʻo ʻenau ngaahi tamai, ko e toko ua afe mo e toko onongeau ma tolungofulu.
41 Leli linani eligcweleyo lwensendo zamaGeshoni abasebenza ethenteni lokuhlangana. UMosi lo-Aroni babala njengokulaywa kwabo nguThixo.
Ko kinautolu ni naʻe lau ʻi he fānau ʻoe ngaahi foha ʻo Kesoni, ʻiate kinautolu kotoa pē ʻe ngofua ke fai ʻae ngāue ʻi he fale fehikitaki ʻoe kakai, ʻakinautolu naʻe lau ʻe Mōsese mo ʻElone ʻo fakatatau ki he fekau ʻa Sihova.
42 AmaMerari abalwa ngensendo langezindlu zawo.
Pea ko kinautolu naʻe lau ʻoe ngaahi fānau ʻa Melali, ʻi honau ngaahi faʻahinga, mo e fale ʻo ʻenau ngaahi tamai,
43 Wonke amadoda ayeleminyaka yokuzalwa esukela kwabalamatshumi amathathu kusiya kwabaleminyaka engamatshumi amahlanu ababezosebenza ethenteni lokuhlangana,
Mei he taʻu ʻe tolungofulu ʻo fai hake, ʻio, ʻo aʻu ki he taʻu ʻe nimangofulu, ʻakinautolu ʻoku hū ke fai ʻae ngāue, ki he ngāue ʻi he fale fehikitaki ʻoe kakai,
44 sebebaliwe ngensendo zabo, babazinkulungwane ezintathu lamakhulu amabili.
ʻIo, ko kinautolu naʻe lau ʻiate kinautolu, ʻi honau ngaahi faʻahinga, ko e toko tolu afe ma toko uangeau.
45 Leli kwaba linani eligcweleyo kwabosendo lwamaMerari. UMosi lo-Aroni babala njengokulaya kukaThixo elaya uMosi.
Ko kinautolu ni naʻe lau ʻi he fānau ʻoe ngaahi foha ʻo Melali, ʻa ia, naʻe lau ʻe Mōsese mo ʻElone ʻo fakatatau ki he folofola ʻa Sihova ʻi he nima ʻa Mōsese.
46 Ngalokho uMosi, u-Aroni labakhokheli bako-Israyeli babala bonke abaLevi ngensendo langezindlu zabo.
Ko kinautolu kotoa pē naʻe lau ʻi he kau Livai, ʻakinautolu naʻe lau ʻe Mōsese mo ʻElone mo e houʻeiki ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻi honau ngaahi faʻahinga, pea mo e fale ʻo ʻenau ngaahi tamai,
47 Wonke amadoda asukela kwabaleminyaka engamatshumi amathathu kusiya kwabaleminyaka engamatshumi amahlanu yokuzalwa abeza ukulungisa kanye lokuthwala ithente lokuhlangana
Mei he taʻu ʻe tolungofulu ʻo fai hake, ʻio, ʻo aʻu ki he taʻu ʻe nimangofulu, ʻakinautolu kotoa pē naʻe haʻu ke fai ʻae ngāue ʻoe fai fekau, pea mo e tauhi ʻoe kavenga ʻi he fale fehikitaki ʻoe kakai,
48 babezinkulungwane eziyisificaminwembili lamakhulu amahlanu alamatshumi ayisificaminwembili.
ʻIo, ko kinautolu naʻe lau ʻiate kinautolu, ko e toko valu afe, mo e toko nimangeau ma valungofulu.
49 Ngokulaya kukaThixo elaya uMosi, ngulowo lalowo wabelwa umsebenzi wakhe ayezawenza lokwakumele akuthwale. Yiyo le indlela ababalwa ngayo, njengokulaywa kukaMosi nguThixo.
Pea naʻe lau ʻakinautolu ʻe he nima ʻo Mōsese, ʻo fakatatau ki he fekau ʻa Sihova, ʻo taki taha fakatatau ki heʻene ngāue, pea mo ʻene kavenga: naʻe pehē ʻa ʻene lau ʻakinautolu ʻo hangē ko e fekau ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese.
