< Exodus 29 >

1 “This is the thing that you shall do to them to make them holy, to minister to me in the priest’s office: take one young bull and two rams without defect,
Yile-ke into ozayenza kubo ukubehlukanisa ukuthi bangisebenzele njengabapristi. Thatha ijongosi elilodwa ithole lenkomo, lenqama ezimbili ezingelasici,
2 unleavened bread, unleavened cakes mixed with oil, and unleavened wafers anointed with oil. You shall make them of fine wheat flour.
lesinkwa esingelamvubelo, lamaqebelengwana angelamvubelo ahlanganiswe lamafutha, lezinkwana eziyizipatalala ezingelamvubelo ezinindwe ngamafutha, uzenze ngempuphu ecolekileyo yengqoloyi;
3 You shall put them into one basket, and bring them in the basket, with the bull and the two rams.
ukufake esitsheni esisodwa, ukusondeze ngesitsha, kanye lejongosi lenqama ezimbili.
4 You shall bring Aaron and his sons to the door of the Tent of Meeting, and shall wash them with water.
Usondeze uAroni lamadodana akhe emnyango wethente lenhlangano, ubagezise ngamanzi;
5 You shall take the garments, and put on Aaron the tunic, the robe of the ephod, the ephod, and the breastplate, and clothe him with the skillfully woven band of the ephod.
uthathe izembatho, ugqokise uAroni isigqoko, lebhatshi le-efodi, le-efodi, lesembatho sesifuba, umbophe ngebhanti elelukwe ngobungcitshi le-efodi,
6 You shall set the turban on his head, and put the holy crown on the turban.
umthwalise iqhiye ekhanda lakhe, umthwalise umqhele ongcwele phezu kweqhiye.
7 Then you shall take the anointing oil, and pour it on his head, and anoint him.
Uthathe amafutha okugcoba, uwathele ekhanda lakhe, umgcobe.
8 You shall bring his sons, and put tunics on them.
Usondeze lamadodana akhe, uwagqokise izigqoko.
9 You shall clothe them with belts, Aaron and his sons, and bind headbands on them. They shall have the priesthood by a perpetual statute. You shall consecrate Aaron and his sons.
Ubabophe ngamabhanti, uAroni lamadodana akhe, ubabophele izingowane, lobupristi bube ngobabo ngesimiso saphakade. Ubehlukanise-ke uAroni lamadodana akhe.
10 “You shall bring the bull before the Tent of Meeting; and Aaron and his sons shall lay their hands on the head of the bull.
Uzasondeza ijongosi phambi kwethente lenhlangano; njalo uAroni lamadodana akhe babeke izandla zabo enhlokweni yejongosi;
11 You shall kill the bull before the LORD at the door of the Tent of Meeting.
ubusulihlaba ijongosi phambi kweNkosi emnyango wethente lenhlangano,
12 You shall take of the blood of the bull, and put it on the horns of the altar with your finger; and you shall pour out all the blood at the base of the altar.
uthathe okwegazi lejongosi, ulifake empondweni zelathi ngomunwe wakho, uthululele lonke igazi esisekelweni selathi.
13 You shall take all the fat that covers the innards, the cover of the liver, the two kidneys, and the fat that is on them, and burn them on the altar.
Uzathatha idanga lonke, lamahwahwa aphezu kwesibindi, lezinso zombili, lamahwahwa aphezu kwazo, ukutshise elathini.
14 But the meat of the bull, and its skin, and its dung, you shall burn with fire outside of the camp. It is a sin offering.
Kodwa inyama yejongosi lesikhumba salo lomswane walo ukutshise ngomlilo ngaphandle kwenkamba; kungumnikelo wesono.
15 “You shall also take the one ram, and Aaron and his sons shall lay their hands on the head of the ram.
Ubusuthatha inqama ibenye; njalo uAroni lamadodana akhe babeke izandla zabo phezu kwenhloko yenqama.
16 You shall kill the ram, and you shall take its blood, and sprinkle it around on the altar.
Ubusuyihlaba inqama, uthathe igazi layo, ulifafaze elathini uligombolozele.
17 You shall cut the ram into its pieces, and wash its innards, and its legs, and put them with its pieces, and with its head.
Uyiqume inqama ngeziqa zayo, ugezise imibilini yayo lemilenze yayo, ukubeke phezu kweziqa zayo laphezu kwenhloko yayo,
18 You shall burn the whole ram on the altar: it is a burnt offering to the LORD; it is a pleasant aroma, an offering made by fire to the LORD.
utshise inqama yonke elathini. Kungumnikelo wokutshiswa eNkosini, kuluqhatshi olumnandi, umnikelo owenzelwe iNkosi ngomlilo.
19 “You shall take the other ram, and Aaron and his sons shall lay their hands on the head of the ram.
Uzathatha inqama yesibili; uAroni lamadodana akhe babesebebeka izandla zabo phezu kwenhloko yenqama.
20 Then you shall kill the ram, and take some of its blood, and put it on the tip of the right ear of Aaron, and on the tip of the right ear of his sons, and on the thumb of their right hand, and on the big toe of their right foot; and sprinkle the blood around on the altar.
Uyihlabe-ke inqama, uthathe okwegazi layo, ulifake eqwangeni lwendlebe kaAroni, leqwangeni lwendlebe yokunene yamadodana akhe, lesithupheni sesandla sabo sokunene, lezwaneni olukhulu lonyawo lwabo lokunene, ufafaze igazi elathini uligombolozele.
21 You shall take of the blood that is on the altar, and of the anointing oil, and sprinkle it on Aaron, and on his garments, and on his sons, and on the garments of his sons with him: and he shall be made holy, and his garments, and his sons, and his sons’ garments with him.
Uthathe okwegazi eliselathini lokwamafutha okugcoba, ukufafaze phezu kukaAroni, laphezu kwezembatho zakhe, laphezu kwamadodana akhe, laphezu kwezembatho zamadodana akhe kanye laye, ukuze abe ngcwele lezembatho zakhe, lamadodana akhe lezembatho zamadodana akhe kanye laye.
22 Also you shall take some of the ram’s fat, the fat tail, the fat that covers the innards, the cover of the liver, the two kidneys, the fat that is on them, and the right thigh (for it is a ram of consecration),
Uthathe enqameni amahwahwa, lomsila ononileyo, ledanga, lamahwahwa esibindi, lezinso zombili, lamahwahwa aphezu kwazo, lomlenze wokunene, ngoba iyinqama yokwehlukaniswa;
23 and one loaf of bread, one cake of oiled bread, and one wafer out of the basket of unleavened bread that is before the LORD.
lesinkwa esiyindilinga esisodwa, leqebelengwana elilodwa elesinkwa esilamafutha, lesinkwana esiyisipatalala esisodwa, esitsheni sezinkwa ezingelamvubelo esiphambi kweNkosi,
24 You shall put all of this in Aaron’s hands, and in his sons’ hands, and shall wave them for a wave offering before the LORD.
ukubeke konke ezandleni zikaAroni lezandleni zamadodana akhe, ukuzunguze ukuze kube ngumnikelo wokuzunguzwa phambi kweNkosi.
25 You shall take them from their hands, and burn them on the altar on the burnt offering, for a pleasant aroma before the LORD: it is an offering made by fire to the LORD.
Ukuthathe ezandleni zabo, ukutshise phezu kwelathi phezu komnikelo wokutshiswa, ukuze kube luqhatshi olumnandi phambi kweNkosi; kungumnikelo owenzelwe iNkosi ngomlilo.
26 “You shall take the breast of Aaron’s ram of consecration, and wave it for a wave offering before the LORD. It shall be your portion.
Uzathatha isifuba senqama yokwehlukaniswa engekaAroni, usizunguze sibe ngumnikelo wokuzunguzwa phambi kweNkosi, njalo sibe yisabelo sakho.
27 You shall sanctify the breast of the wave offering and the thigh of the wave offering, which is waved, and which is raised up, of the ram of consecration, even of that which is for Aaron, and of that which is for his sons.
Uzasingcwelisa isifuba somnikelo wokuzunguzwa lomlenze womnikelo wokuphakanyiswa ozunguzwayo lophakanyiswayo, okwenqama yokwehlukaniswa, okwalokho okungokukaAroni lokwalokho okungokwamadodana akhe;
28 It shall be for Aaron and his sons as their portion forever from the children of Israel; for it is a wave offering. It shall be a wave offering from the children of Israel of the sacrifices of their peace offerings, even their wave offering to the LORD.
njalo kuzakuba ngokukaAroni lokwamadodana akhe, kube yisimiso saphakade kuvela kubantwana bakoIsrayeli; ngoba kungumnikelo wokuphakanyiswa; kuzakuba ngumnikelo wokuphakanyiswa ovela kubantwana bakoIsrayeli, eminikelweni yabo yokuthula; umnikelo wabo wokuphakanyiswa eNkosini.
29 “The holy garments of Aaron shall be for his sons after him, to be anointed in them, and to be consecrated in them.
Lezembatho ezingcwele zikaAroni zizakuba ngezamadodana akhe emva kwakhe, ukuze agcotshwe embethe zona, lokuze ehlukaniswe embethe zona.
30 Seven days shall the son who is priest in his place put them on, when he comes into the Tent of Meeting to minister in the holy place.
Insuku eziyisikhombisa umpristi endaweni yakhe, ovela kumadodana akhe, uzazembatha, nxa engena ethenteni lenhlangano ukukhonza endaweni engcwele.
31 “You shall take the ram of consecration and boil its meat in a holy place.
Uzathatha-ke inqama yokwehlukaniswa, upheke inyama yayo endaweni engcwele.
32 Aaron and his sons shall eat the meat of the ram, and the bread that is in the basket, at the door of the Tent of Meeting.
Njalo uAroni lamadodana akhe bazakudla inyama yenqama lesinkwa esisesitsheni emnyango wethente lenhlangano,
33 They shall eat those things with which atonement was made, to consecrate and sanctify them; but a stranger shall not eat of it, because they are holy.
badle lezozinto okwenziwa ngazo inhlawulo yokuthula, ukubehlukanisa, ukubangcwelisa; kodwa owemzini angazidli ngoba zingcwele.
34 If anything of the meat of the consecration, or of the bread, remains to the morning, then you shall burn the remainder with fire. It shall not be eaten, because it is holy.
Njalo uba kusala okwenyama yokwehlukaniswa kumbe okwesinkwa kuze kuse, tshisa okuseleyo ngomlilo; kungadliwa, ngoba kungcwele.
35 “You shall do so to Aaron and to his sons, according to all that I have commanded you. You shall consecrate them seven days.
Uzakwenza njalo-ke kuAroni lakumadodana akhe njengakho konke engikulaya khona; insuku eziyisikhombisa uzabehlukanisa.
36 Every day you shall offer the bull of sin offering for atonement. You shall cleanse the altar when you make atonement for it. You shall anoint it, to sanctify it.
Insuku ngensuku unikele ijongosi lomnikelo wesono wenhlawulo yokuthula; uhlambulule ilathi lapho ulenzela inhlawulo yokuthula, uligcobe ukuze ulingcwelise.
37 Seven days you shall make atonement for the altar, and sanctify it; and the altar shall be most holy. Whatever touches the altar shall be holy.
Ulenzele ilathi inhlawulo yokuthula insuku eziyisikhombisa, ulingcwelise, lelathi lizakuba yingcwelengcwele; konke okulithintayo ilathi kuzakuba ngcwele.
38 “Now this is that which you shall offer on the altar: two lambs a year old day by day continually.
Yilokhu-ke ozakunikela phezu kwelathi: Amawundlu amabili alomnyaka owodwa insuku ngensuku njalonjalo.
39 The one lamb you shall offer in the morning; and the other lamb you shall offer at evening;
Elinye iwundlu uzalinikela ekuseni, lelinye iwundlu ulinikele kusihlwa,
40 and with the one lamb a tenth part of an ephah of fine flour mixed with the fourth part of a hin of beaten oil, and the fourth part of a hin of wine for a drink offering.
lokwetshumi kwempuphu ecolekileyo kuxubene lengxenye yesine yehini yamafutha agigiweyo, lengxenye yesine yehini yewayini kube ngumnikelo wokunathwayo, welinye iwundlu.
41 The other lamb you shall offer at evening, and shall do to it according to the meal offering of the morning and according to its drink offering, for a pleasant aroma, an offering made by fire to the LORD.
Lelinye iwundlu ulinikele kusihlwa, wenze kulo njengomnikelo wokudla wekuseni, lanjengomnikelo wawo wokunathwayo, kube luqhatshi olumnandi, umnikelo owenzelwe iNkosi ngomlilo.
42 It shall be a continual burnt offering throughout your generations at the door of the Tent of Meeting before the LORD, where I will meet with you, to speak there to you.
Uzakuba ngumnikelo wokutshiswa njalonjalo ezizukulwaneni zenu, emnyango wethente lenhlangano phambi kweNkosi, lapho engizahlangana khona lani, ukukhuluma lawe lapho.
43 There I will meet with the children of Israel; and the place shall be sanctified by my glory.
Lalapho ngizahlangana labantwana bakoIsrayeli, njalo kungcweliswe yinkazimulo yami.
44 I will sanctify the Tent of Meeting and the altar. I will also sanctify Aaron and his sons to minister to me in the priest’s office.
Njalo ngizangcwelisa ithente lenhlangano lelathi, ngizangcwelisa loAroni lamadodana akhe, ukuze bangisebenzele njengabapristi.
45 I will dwell among the children of Israel, and will be their God.
Ngizahlala phakathi kwabantwana bakoIsrayeli, ngibe nguNkulunkulu kubo.
46 They shall know that I am the LORD their God, who brought them out of the land of Egypt, that I might dwell among them: I am the LORD their God.
Bazakwazi-ke ukuthi ngiyiNkosi uNkulunkulu wabo, eyabakhupha elizweni leGibhithe ukuze ngihlale phakathi kwabo; ngiyiNkosi uNkulunkulu wabo.
