Mambo ya Walawi 10

1 Nadabu na Abihu, wana wa Aroni, wakachukua vyetezo vyao, wakaweka moto ndani yake na kuongeza uvumba; kisha wakamtolea Bwana moto usio halali, kinyume na agizo la Mungu.

And Nadab and Abiu, the sons of Aaron, taking their censers, put fire therein, and incense on it, offering before the Lord strange fire: which was not commanded them.

2 Hivyo moto ukaja kutoka kwa uwepo wa Bwana na kuwaramba, nao wakafa mbele za Bwana.

And fire coming out from the Lord destroyed them, and they died before the Lord.

3 Kisha Mose akamwambia Aroni, “Hili ndilo alilonena Bwana wakati aliposema: “‘Miongoni mwa wale watakaonikaribia nitajionyesha kuwa mtakatifu; machoni pa watu wote nitaheshimiwa.’” Aroni akanyamaza.

And Moses said to Aaron: This is what the Lord hath spoken: I will be sanctified in them that approach to me, and I will be glorified in the sight of all the people. And when Aaron heard this, he held his peace.

4 Mose akawaita Mishaeli na Elisafani, wana wa Uzieli mjomba wake Aroni, akawaambia, “Njooni hapa. Ondoeni miili ya binamu zenu mbele ya mahali patakatifu, mkaipeleke nje ya kambi.”

And Moses called Misael and Elisaphan, the sons of Oziel, the uncle of Aaron, and said to them: Go and take away your brethren from before the sanctuary, and carry them without the camp.

5 Hivyo wakaja na kuwaondoa, wakiwa bado wamevalia makoti yao ya ibada, wakawapeleka nje ya kambi, kama Mose alivyoamuru.

And they went forthwith and took them as they lay, vested with linen tunicks, and cast them forth, as had been commanded them.

6 Ndipo Mose akamwambia Aroni pamoja na wanawe, Eleazari na Ithamari, “Msifunue vichwa vyenu wala msirarue mavazi yenu, la sivyo mtakufa na Bwana ataikasirikia jumuiya nzima. Lakini ndugu zenu, nyumba yote ya Israeli, wanaweza kuwaombolezea wale ambao Bwana amewaangamiza kwa moto.

And Moses said to Aaron, and to Eleazar and Ithamar, his sons: Uncover not your heads, and rend not your garments, lest perhaps you die, and indignation come upon all the congregation. Let your brethren, and all the house of Israel, bewail the burning which the Lord has kindled:

7 Msitoke nje ya ingilio la Hema la Kukutania, la sivyo mtakufa, kwa sababu mafuta ya Bwana ya upako yako juu yenu.” Hivyo wakafanya kama vile Mose alivyosema.

But you shall not go out of the door of the tabernacle, otherwise you shall perish, for the oil of the holy unction is on you. And they did all things according to the precept of Moses.

8 Kisha Bwana akamwambia Aroni,

The Lord also said to Aaron:

9 “Wewe na wanao msinywe mvinyo wala kinywaji kingine kilichochachuka wakati mwingiapo katika Hema la Kukutania, la sivyo mtakufa. Hili litakuwa Agizo la kudumu kwa vizazi vijavyo.

You shall not drink wine nor any thing that may make drunk, thou nor thy sons, when you enter into the tabernacle of the testimony, lest you die: because it is an everlasting precept through your generations:

10 Ni lazima mtenganishe kilicho kitakatifu na kile kilicho cha kawaida, kati ya yaliyo najisi na yaliyo safi,

And that you may have knowledge to discern between holy and unholy, between unclean and clean:

11 na lazima mwafundishe Waisraeli amri zote ambazo Bwana aliwapa kupitia Mose.”

And may teach the children of Israel all my ordinances which the Lord hath spoken to them by the hand of Moses.

12 Mose akamwambia Aroni pamoja na wanawe waliosalia, Eleazari na Ithamari, “Chukueni sadaka ya nafaka iliyobaki kutoka sadaka zilizotolewa kwa Bwana kwa moto, muile hapo kando ya madhabahu ikiwa imeandaliwa bila chachu, kwa sababu ni takatifu sana.

And Moses spoke to Aaron, and to Eleazar and Ithamar, his sons that were left: Take the sacrifice that is remaining of the oblation of the Lord, and eat it without leaven beside the altar, because it is holy of holies.

13 Mtaila katika mahali patakatifu kwa sababu ni fungu lenu na fungu la wana wenu la sadaka zilizotolewa kwa Bwana kwa moto, kwa maana hivyo ndivyo nilivyoamriwa.

And you shall eat it in a holy place: which is given to thee and thy sons of the oblations of the Lord, as it hath been commanded me.

14 Lakini wewe na wanao na binti zako mwaweza kula kidari kile kilichoinuliwa na paja lile lililotolewa. Mtavila mahali safi pa kawaida ya ibada; mmepewa wewe na watoto wako kuwa fungu lenu la sadaka za amani za Waisraeli.

The breast also that is offered, and the shoulder that is separated, you shall eat in a most clean place, thou and thy sons, and thy daughters with thee. For they are set aside for thee and thy children, of the victims of peace offerings of the children of Israel:

15 Paja lile lililotolewa na kidari kile kilichoinuliwa lazima viletwe pamoja na sehemu za mafuta ya sadaka za kuteketezwa kwa moto, ili kuinuliwa mbele za Bwana kama sadaka ya kuinuliwa. Hili litakuwa fungu lako la kawaida na wanao, kama Bwana alivyoagiza.”

Because they have elevated before the Lord the shoulder and the breast, and the fat that is burnt on the altar, and they belong to thee and to thy sons by a perpetual law, as the Lord hath commanded.

16 Mose alipouliza kuhusu mbuzi atolewaye kwa ajili ya sadaka ya dhambi, na kukuta kwamba ameteketezwa, aliwakasirikia Eleazari na Ithamari, wana wa Aroni waliobaki, akawauliza,

While these things were a doing, when Moses sought for the buck goat, that had been offered for sin, he found it burnt: and being angry with Eleazar and Ithamar, the sons of Aaron that were left, he said:

17 “Kwa nini hamkula sadaka ya dhambi katika eneo la mahali patakatifu? Ni takatifu sana. Mlipewa ninyi ili kuondoa hatia ya jumuiya kwa ajili ya kuwafanyia upatanisho mbele za Bwana.

Why did you not eat in the holy place the sacrifice for sin, which is most holy, and given to you, that you may bear the iniquity of the people, and may pray for them in the sight of the Lord,

18 Kwa kuwa damu yake haikuletwa ndani ya Mahali Patakatifu, mngemla mbuzi huyo katika sehemu ya mahali patakatifu kama nilivyoagiza.”

Especially whereas none of the blood thereof hath been carried within the holy places, and you ought to have eaten it in the sanctuary, as was commanded me?

19 Aroni akamjibu Mose, “Leo wanangu wametoa sadaka zao za dhambi na sadaka zao za kuteketezwa mbele za Bwana, lakini mambo kama haya yamenitokea mimi. Je, Bwana angependezwa kama ningekuwa nimekula sadaka ya dhambi leo?”

Aaron answered: This day hath been offered the victim for sin, and the holocaust before the Lord: and to me what thou seest has happened: how could I eat it, or please the Lord in the ceremonies, having a sorrowful heart?

20 Mose aliposikia haya, akaridhika.

Which when Moses had heard he was satisfied.
