< Leviticus 27 >

1 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
INkosi yasikhuluma kuMozisi isithi:
2 Speak to the sons of Israel, and say to them, When a man shall accomplish a vow, the persons shall be for Jehovah by thy estimation.
Tshono ebantwaneni bakoIsrayeli uthi kubo: Umuntu, nxa esenza isithembiso esikhethekileyo, njengesilinganiso sakho imiphefumulo izakuba ngeyeNkosi.
3 And thy estimation shall be of the male from twenty years old even to sixty years old, even thy estimation shall be fifty shekels of silver, after the shekel of the sanctuary.
Khona isilinganiso sakho sizakuba ngesowesilisa, kusukela koleminyaka engamatshumi amabili kusiya koleminyaka engamatshumi ayisithupha, isilinganiso sakho sizakuba ngamashekeli esiliva angamatshumi amahlanu, ngokweshekeli lendlu engcwele.
4 And if it be a female, then thy estimation shall be thirty shekels.
Kodwa uba kungowesifazana, isilinganiso sakho sizakuba ngamashekeli angamatshumi amathathu.
5 And if it be from five years old even to twenty years old, then thy estimation shall be of the male twenty shekels, and for the female ten shekels.
Njalo nxa kusukela koleminyaka emihlanu kusiya koleminyaka engamatshumi amabili, isilinganiso sakho sowesilisa sizakuba ngamashekeli angamatshumi amabili, lakowesifazana amashekeli alitshumi.
6 And if it be from a month old even to five years old, then thy estimation shall be of the male five shekels of silver, and for the female thy estimation shall be three shekels of silver.
Njalo nxa kusukela kolenyanga kusiya koleminyaka emihlanu, isilinganiso sakho sowesilisa sizakuba ngamashekeli amahlanu esiliva, njalo kowesifazana isilinganiso sakho sizakuba ngamashekeli amathathu esiliva.
7 And if it be from sixty years old and upward, if it be a male, then thy estimation shall be fifteen shekels, and for the female ten shekels.
Uba-ke kusukela koleminyaka engamatshumi ayisithupha langaphezulu, uba kungowesilisa, isilinganiso sakho sizakuba ngamashekeli alitshumi lanhlanu, lakowesifazana amashekeli alitshumi.
8 But if he be poorer than thy estimation, then he shall be set before the priest, and the priest shall value him; according to the ability of him who vowed shall the priest value him.
Kodwa uba engumyanga kulesilinganiso sakho, uzazimisa phambi kompristi ukuze umpristi amlinganise; njengalokho isandla sowathembisayo singafinyelela kukho umpristi uzamlinganisa.
9 And if it be a beast, of which men offer an oblation to Jehovah, all that any man gives of such to Jehovah shall be holy.
Njalo uba kuyinyamazana abanikela okwayo umnikelo eNkosini, konke okwayo anikela ngakho eNkosini kuzakuba ngcwele.
10 He shall not alter it, nor change it, a good for a bad, or a bad for a good. And if he shall at all change beast for beast, then both it and that for which it is changed shall be holy.
Kayikuyintshintsha, futhi angenaniseli ngayo, enhle ngembi loba embi ngenhle. Uba-ke usenanisa lokwenanisa inyamazana ngenyamazana, lokhu lalokhukwenaniselana kuzakuba ngcwele.
11 And if it be any unclean beast, of which they do not offer an oblation to Jehovah, then he shall set the beast before the priest,
Njalo uba kuyinyamazana loba yiyiphi engcolileyo abanganikeli okwayo ngayo umnikelo eNkosini, uzayimisa inyamazana phambi kompristi,
12 and the priest shall value it, whether it be good or bad. As thou the priest values it, so shall it be.
umpristi ayilinganise-ke, ukuthi inhle loba imbi; njengesilinganiso sakho, mpristi, izakuba njalo.
13 But if he will indeed redeem it, then he shall add the fifth part of it to thy estimation.
Kodwa uba eyihlenga lokuyihlenga, uzakwengezelela ingxenye yesihlanu yayo phezu kwesilinganiso sakho.
14 And when a man shall sanctify his house to be holy to Jehovah, then the priest shall estimate it, whether it be good or bad. As the priest shall estimate it, so shall it stand.
Umuntu, nxa engcwelisa-ke indlu yakhe, ukuthi ibe ngcwele eNkosini, umpristi uzayilinganisa, ukuthi inhle loba imbi; njengalokho umpristi ezayilinganisa izakuma njalo.
15 And if he who sanctified it will redeem his house, then he shall add the fifth part of the money of thy estimation to it, and it shall be his.
Uba-ke oyingcwelisileyo ezayihlenga indlu yakhe, uzakwengezelela ingxenye yesihlanu yemali yesilinganiso sakho phezu kwayo, njalo izakuba ngeyakhe.
16 And if a man shall sanctify to Jehovah part of the field of his possession, then thy estimation shall be according to the sowing of it, the sowing of a homer of barley at fifty shekels of silver.
Uba-ke umuntu ezangcwelisela iNkosi okwensimu yelifa lakhe, isilinganiso sakho sizakuba njengokwenhlanyelo yayo. Ihomeri lenhlanyelo yebhali libe ngamashekeli esiliva engamatshumi amahlanu.
17 If he sanctifies his field from the year of jubilee, according to thy estimation it shall stand.
Uba engcwelisa insimu yakhe kusukela emnyakeni wejubili, njengesilinganiso sakho izakuma.
18 But if he sanctifies his field after the jubilee, then the priest shall reckon to him the money according to the years that remain to the year of jubilee, and an abatement shall be made from thy estimation.
Kodwa uba wangcwelisa insimu yakhe emva kwejubili, umpristi uzambalela imali ngokweminyaka eseleyo kuze kufike umnyaka wejubili, njalo kuzaphungulwa esilinganisweni sakho.
19 And if he who sanctified the field will indeed redeem it, then he shall add the fifth part of the money of thy estimation to it, and it shall be assured to him.
Uba-ke owayingcwelisayo eyihlenga lokuyihlenga insimu, uzakwengezelela ingxenye yesihlanu yemali yesilinganiso sakho phezu kwayo, njalo iqiniswe kuye.
20 And if he will not redeem the field, or if he has sold the field to another man, it shall not be redeemed any more,
Kodwa uba engayihlengi insimu, loba uba eseyithengisile insimu komunye umuntu, kayisayikuhlengwa.
21 but the field, when it goes out in the jubilee, shall be holy to Jehovah, as a field set apart; the possession of it shall be the priest's.
Kodwa insimu ekuphumeni kwayo ngejubili izakuba ngcwele eNkosini, njengensimu eyehlukanisiweyo; ilifa layo libe ngelompristi.
22 And if he sanctifies to Jehovah a field which he has bought, which is not of the field of his possession,
Uba-ke eyingcwelisela iNkosi insimu ayithengileyo, engayisiyo insimu yelifa lakhe,
23 then the priest shall reckon to him the worth of thy estimation to the year of jubilee, and he shall give thine estimation in that day, as a holy thing to Jehovah.
umpristi uzambalela-ke inani lesilinganiso sakho, kuze kufike umnyaka wejubili, abesenika isilinganiso sakho ngalolosuku, into engcwele eNkosini.
24 In the year of jubilee the field shall return to him of whom it was bought, even to him to whom the possession of the land belongs.
Ngomnyaka wejubili insimu izabuyela kulowo eyathengwa kuye, kulowo ilifa lensimu ebelingelakhe.
25 And all thy estimations shall be according to the shekel of the sanctuary; twenty gerahs shall be the shekel.
Njalo sonke isilinganiso sakho sizakuba ngokweshekeli lendlu engcwele; amagera angamatshumi amabili azakuba lishekeli.
26 Only the firstling among beasts, which is made a firstling to Jehovah, no man shall sanctify it, whether it be ox or sheep, it is Jehovah's.
Kodwa izibulo, elizelwe njengengqabutho eNkosini elenyamazana, kakho ozalingcwelisa; loba inkabi loba imvu, ngeleNkosi.
27 And if it be of an unclean beast, then he shall ransom it according to thine estimation, and shall add to it the fifth part of it, or if it be not redeemed, then it shall be sold according to thy estimation.
Kodwa uba lingelenyamazana engcolileyo, uzalihlenga ngokwesilinganiso sakho, engezelele phezu kwalo ingxenye yesihlanu yalo; kodwa uba lingahlengwanga, lizathengiswa ngokwesilinganiso sakho.
28 Notwithstanding, nothing set apart, that a man shall set apart to Jehovah of all that he has, whether of man or beast, or of the field of his possession, shall be sold or redeemed; everything set apart is most holy to Jehovah.
Kodwa kakukho into eyehlukanisiweyo, umuntu ayehlukanisele iNkosi, kukho konke alakho, okuvela emuntwini, loba enyamazaneni, loba okuvela ensimini yelifa lakhe, kakuyikuthengiswa, futhi kakuyikuhlengwa; konke okwehlukanisiweyo kuyingcwelengcwele eNkosini.
29 No one set apart, who shall be set apart from among men, shall be ransomed; he shall surely be put to death.
Yonke into eqalekisiweyo, eqalekiswe ebantwini, kayiyikuhlengwa; izabulawa lokubulawa.
30 And all the tithe of the land, whether of the seed of the land, or of the fruit of the tree, is Jehovah's; it is holy to Jehovah.
Lakho konke okwetshumi kwelizwe, okwenhlanyelo yelizwe, okwesithelo sezihlahla, kungokweNkosi; kungcwele eNkosini.
31 And if a man will redeem any of his tithe, he shall add to it the fifth part of it.
Uba umuntu ehlenga lokuhlenga kokwetshumi kwakhe, uzakwengezelela kukho ingxenye yesihlanu yakho.
32 And all the tithe of the herd or the flock, whatever passes under the rod, the tenth shall be holy to Jehovah.
Mayelana lakho konke okwetshumi kwezinkomo leyezimvu, konke okwedlula ngaphansi kwentonga, okwetshumi kuzakuba ngcwele eNkosini.
33 He shall not search whether it be good or bad, neither shall he change it. And if he changes it at all, then both it and that for which it is changed shall be holy; it shall not be redeemed.
Kayikuhlola phakathi kokuhle lokubi, futhi kayikuntshintsha. Njalo uba ekuntshintsha lokukuntshintsha, ngakho khona lokuntshintshana lakho kuzakuba ngcwele, kakuyikuhlengwa.
34 These are the commandments, which Jehovah commanded Moses for the sons of Israel at mount Sinai.
Leyo yimilayo iNkosi eyayilaya uMozisi kubantwana bakoIsrayeli entabeni yeSinayi.
