Leviticus 10
1 Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, each took his censer, and put fire in it, and laid incense on it, and offered strange fire before the LORD, which he had not commanded them.
Amadodana kaAroni, oNadabi loAbihu, asethatha ngulowo lalowo umganu wakhe wokutshisela impepha, afaka umlilo kiyo, abeka phezu kwawo impepha, anikela umlilo ongejwayelekanga phambi kweNkosi, eyayingawalayanga wona.
2 Fire came out from before the LORD, and devoured them, and they died before the LORD.
Kwasekuphuma umlilo ovela phambi kweNkosi, wawaqothula, asefela phambi kweNkosi.
3 Then Moses said to Aaron, “This is what the LORD spoke of, saying, ‘I will show myself holy to those who come near me, and before all the people I will be glorified.’” Aaron held his peace.
UMozisi wasesithi kuAroni: Yilokhu iNkosi eyakukhulumayo isithi: Kulabo abasondela kimi ngizangcweliswa, futhi phambi kwabantu bonke ngizadunyiswa. UAroni wasethula.
4 Moses called Mishael and Elzaphan, the sons of Uzziel the uncle of Aaron, and said to them, “Draw near, carry your brothers from before the sanctuary out of the camp.”
UMozisi wasebiza uMishayeli loElizafani, amadodana kaUziyeli uyise omncane kaAroni, wathi kibo: Sondelani, libasuse abafowenu phambi kwendlu engcwele, kuze kube ngaphandle kwenkamba.
5 So they came near, and carried them in their tunics out of the camp, as Moses had said.
Basondela-ke, babathwala bembethe izigqoko zabo kwaze kwaba ngaphandle kwenkamba, njengokutsho kukaMozisi.
6 Moses said to Aaron, and to Eleazar and to Ithamar, his sons, “Do not let the hair of your heads go loose, and do not tear your clothes, so that you do not die, and so that he will not be angry with all the congregation; but let your brothers, the whole house of Israel, bewail the burning which the LORD has kindled.
UMozisi wasesithi kuAroni lakuEleyazare lakuIthamari, amadodana akhe: Lingembuli amakhanda enu, lingadabuli izembatho zenu, hlezi life, lolaka lwehlele phezu kwenhlangano yonke. Kodwa akuthi abafowenu, indlu yonke kaIsrayeli, balilele ukutshisa iNkosi ekuphembileyo.
7 You shall not go out from the door of the Tent of Meeting, lest you die; for the anointing oil of the LORD is on you.” They did according to the word of Moses.
Lingaphumi ngomnyango wethente lenhlangano hlezi life, ngoba amafutha okugcoba eNkosi aphezu kwenu. Benza-ke njengelizwi likaMozisi.
8 Then the LORD said to Aaron,
INkosi yasikhuluma kuAroni isithi:
9 “You and your sons are not to drink wine or strong drink whenever you go into the Tent of Meeting, or you will die. This shall be a statute forever throughout your generations.
Unganathi iwayini lokunathwayo okulamandla, wena lamadodana akho kanye lawe, nxa lingena ethenteni lenhlangano, ukuze lingafi; kuyisimiso esilaphakade ezizukulwaneni zenu;
10 You are to make a distinction between the holy and the common, and between the unclean and the clean.
lokwehlukanisa phakathi kokungcwele lokungangcwele, laphakathi kokungahlambulukanga lokuhlambulukileyo;
11 You are to teach the children of Israel all the statutes which the LORD has spoken to them by Moses.”
lokufundisa abantwana bakoIsrayeli zonke izimiso iNkosi ezikhulume kubo ngesandla sikaMozisi.
12 Moses spoke to Aaron, and to Eleazar and to Ithamar, his sons who were left, “Take the meal offering that remains of the offerings of the LORD made by fire, and eat it without yeast beside the altar; for it is most holy;
UMozisi wasesithi kuAroni lakuEleyazare lakuIthamari, amadodana akhe ayesele: Thathani umnikelo wokudla oseleyo eminikelweni yeNkosi eyenziwe ngomlilo, liwudle ungelamvubelo eceleni kwelathi, ngoba uyingcwelengcwele;
13 and you shall eat it in a holy place, because it is your portion, and your sons’ portion, of the offerings of the LORD made by fire; for so I am commanded.
njalo liwudlele endaweni engcwele, ngoba uyimfanelo yakho lemfanelo yamadodana akho, esivela eminikelweni yeNkosi eyenziwe ngomlilo; ngoba ngilaywe njalo.
14 The waved breast and the heaved thigh you shall eat in a clean place, you, and your sons, and your daughters with you: for they are given as your portion, and your sons’ portion, out of the sacrifices of the peace offerings of the children of Israel.
Kodwa isifuba sokuzunguzwa lomlenze wokuphakanyiswa lizakudlela endaweni ehlambulukileyo, wena lamadodana akho, lamadodakazi akho kanye lawe; ngoba kuyisabelo sakho lesabelo samadodana akho; kunikwa kuvela emihlatshelweni yeminikelo yokuthula yabantwana bakoIsrayeli.
15 They shall bring the heaved thigh and the waved breast with the offerings made by fire of the fat, to wave it for a wave offering before the LORD. It shall be yours, and your sons’ with you, as a portion forever, as the LORD has commanded.”
Umlenze wokuphakanyiswa lesifuba sokuzunguzwa bazakuletha leminikelo yamahwahwa eyenziwe ngomlilo, ukukuzunguza kube ngumnikelo wokuzunguzwa phambi kweNkosi; kuzakuba ngokwakho lokwamadodana akho kanye lawe, kube yisimiso saphakade, njengokulaya kweNkosi.
16 Moses diligently inquired about the goat of the sin offering, and, behold, it was burned. He was angry with Eleazar and with Ithamar, the sons of Aaron who were left, saying,
UMozisi wadingisisa impongo yomnikelo wesono, khangela-ke yayitshisiwe. Ngakho wathukuthelela uEleyazare loIthamari, amadodana kaAroni aseleyo, esithi:
17 “Why have not you eaten the sin offering in the place of the sanctuary, since it is most holy, and he has given it to you to bear the iniquity of the congregation, to make atonement for them before the LORD?
Kalidlanga ngani umnikelo wesono endaweni engcwele, ngoba uyingcwelengcwele, futhi ilinikile wona lina ukuze lithwale ububi benhlangano, libenzele inhlawulo yokuthula phambi kweNkosi?
18 Behold, its blood was not brought into the inner part of the sanctuary. You certainly should have eaten it in the sanctuary, as I commanded.”
Khangelani, igazi lawo kalingeniswanga phakathi endaweni engcwele. Ngabe isibili liyidlile endaweni engcwele njengokulaya kwami.
19 Aaron spoke to Moses, “Behold, today they have offered their sin offering and their burnt offering before the LORD; and such things as these have happened to me. If I had eaten the sin offering today, would it have been pleasing in the LORD’s sight?”
UAroni wasesithi kuMozisi: Khangela, lamuhla sebenikele umnikelo wabo wesono lomnikelo wabo wokutshiswa phambi kweNkosi, kanti izinto ezinje zingehlele! Uba bengidlile umnikelo wesono lamuhla, bekuzakuba kuhle emehlweni eNkosi yini?
20 When Moses heard that, it was pleasing in his sight.
Esezwile lokho uMozisi kwaba kuhle emehlweni akhe.
