< Leviticus 11 >

1 The LORD spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying to them,
Awo Mukama Katonda n’agamba Musa ne Alooni nti,
2 “Speak to the children of Israel, saying, ‘These are the living things which you may eat among all the animals that are on the earth.
“Mutegeeze abaana ba Isirayiri nti bino bye biramu bye munaayinzanga okulya mu bisolo byonna eby’oku nsi.
3 Whatever parts the hoof, and is cloven-footed, and chews the cud among the animals, that you may eat.
Munaayinzanga okulya ensolo yonna erina ekigere ekyaseemu nga kyeyawulidde ddala, era ng’ezza obwenkulumu.
4 “‘Nevertheless these you shall not eat of those that chew the cud, or of those who part the hoof: the camel, because it chews the cud but does not have a parted hoof, is unclean to you.
Kyokka ezo ezizza obwenkulumu bwokka, oba ezirina ebigere ebyaseemu byokka, temuziryanga. Ggamba eŋŋamira, newaakubadde ng’ezza obwenkulumu naye ebigere byayo si byaseemu; noolwekyo si nnongoofu.
5 The hyrax, because it chews the cud but does not have a parted hoof, is unclean to you.
N’omusu nagwo guzza obwenkulumu, naye ebigere byagwo si byaseemu; noolwekyo si mulongoofu.
6 The hare, because it chews the cud but does not have a parted hoof, is unclean to you.
Ate n’akamyu ak’omu nsiko, newaakubadde nako kazza obwenkulumu naye ebigere byako si byaseemu, noolwekyo si kalongoofu, era temukalyanga.
7 The pig, because it has a split hoof, and is cloven-footed, but does not chew the cud, is unclean to you.
Ate mulabe embizzi, newaakubadde ng’ekigere kyayo kyaseemu, ate nga kyeyawulidde ddala, naye tezza bwenkulumu; noolwekyo si nnongoofu gye muli.
8 You shall not eat their meat. You shall not touch their carcasses. They are unclean to you.
Ebisolo ng’ebyo temulyanga nnyama yaabyo, wadde okukwatako ku mirambo gyabyo; kubanga si birongoofu gye muli.
9 “‘You may eat of all these that are in the waters: whatever has fins and scales in the waters, in the seas, and in the rivers, that you may eat.
“Ku biramu ebiri mu mazzi ag’omu nnyanja n’ag’omu migga mulyangako ebyo ebirina amatu awamu n’amagagamba ku mubiri gwabyo.
10 All that do not have fins and scales in the seas and rivers, all that move in the waters, and all the living creatures that are in the waters, they are an abomination to you,
Ebiramu byonna ebyekuluumulira mu nnyanja ne mu migga naye nga tebiriiko matu oba magagamba binaabanga bya muzizo gye muli.
11 and you shall detest them. You shall not eat of their meat, and you shall detest their carcasses.
Nga bwe binaabanga eby’omuzizo gye muli, temuulyenga ku nnyama yaabyo, era n’emirambo gyabyo ginaabanga gya muzizo.
12 Whatever has no fins nor scales in the waters is an abomination to you.
Buli kiramu kyonna ekibeera mu mazzi naye nga tekiriiko matu wadde amagagamba kinaabanga kya muzizo gye muli.
13 “‘You shall detest these among the birds; they shall not be eaten because they are an abomination: the eagle, the vulture, the black vulture,
“Mu nnyonyi, zino ze z’omuzizo era temuuziryenga: empungu, ensega, makwanzi,
14 the red kite, any kind of black kite,
kamunye, eddiirawamu erya buli ngeri,
15 any kind of raven,
ne namuŋŋoona owa buli ngeri;
16 the horned owl, the screech owl, the gull, any kind of hawk,
maaya, olubugabuga, olusobe, enkambo eza buli ngeri,
17 the little owl, the cormorant, the great owl,
ekiwuugulu, enkobyokkobyo, ekkufufu,
18 the white owl, the desert owl, the osprey,
ekiwuugulu eky’amatu, ne kimbala, ensega,
19 the stork, any kind of heron, the hoopoe, and the bat.
kasida, mpabaana owa buli ngeri, ekkookootezi, n’ekinyira.
20 “‘All flying insects that walk on all fours are an abomination to you.
“Ebiwuka byonna ebirina ebiwaawaatiro nga bitambuza amagulu ana binaabanga bya muzizo gye muli.
21 Yet you may eat these: of all winged creeping things that go on all fours, which have long, jointed legs for hopping on the earth.
Naye mu biwuka ebyo ebirina ebiwaawaatiro era nga bitambuza amagulu ana munaalyangamu ebyo ebirina ennyingo ku magulu gaabyo ebigenda nga bibuuka amacco ku ttaka.
22 Even of these you may eat: any kind of locust, any kind of katydid, any kind of cricket, and any kind of grasshopper.
Mu ebyo bino bye munaalyanga: enzige eza buli ngeri, n’enseenene eza buli ngeri, n’obunyeenyenkule obwa buli ngeri, n’amayanzi aga buli ngeri.
23 But all winged creeping things which have four feet are an abomination to you.
Naye ebiwuka ebirala byonna eby’ebiwaawaatiro nga birina amagulu ana binaabanga bya muzizo gye muli.
24 “‘By these you will become unclean: whoever touches their carcass shall be unclean until the evening.
“Bino nabyo binaabafuulanga abatali balongoofu; buli anaakwatanga ku mulambo gw’ensolo nga zino anaafuukanga atali mulongoofu okutuusa akawungeezi.
25 Whoever carries any part of their carcass shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening.
Era buli anaasitulanga ekitundu kyonna eky’omulambo gwazo anaateekwanga okwoza engoye ze, kyokka era anaabanga afuuse atali mulongoofu okutuusa akawungeezi.
26 “‘Every animal which has a split hoof that is not completely divided, or does not chew the cud, is unclean to you. Everyone who touches them shall be unclean.
“Buli nsolo yonna erina ekigere ekyaseemu naye nga tekyeyawulidde ddala, oba nga tezza bwenkulumu, eneebanga ya muzizo gye muli. Buli anaakwatanga ku mulambo gwazo anaabanga afuuse atali mulongoofu.
27 Whatever goes on its paws, among all animals that go on all fours, they are unclean to you. Whoever touches their carcass shall be unclean until the evening.
Mu nsolo zonna ezitambulira ku magulu ana, ezo ezitambulira ku bibatu byazo teziibenga nnongoofu gye muli, buli muntu anaakwatanga ku mulambo gwazo anaabanga afuuse atali mulongoofu okutuusa akawungeezi.
28 He who carries their carcass shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening. They are unclean to you.
Era n’oyo anaasitulanga omulambo gwazo anaayozanga engoye ze; naye era anaabanga afuuse atali mulongoofu okutuusa akawungeezi. Teziibenga nnongoofu gye muli.
29 “‘These are they which are unclean to you among the creeping things that creep on the earth: the weasel, the rat, any kind of great lizard,
“Mu nsolo ezigenda zisoobera ku ttaka; zino teziibenga nnongoofu gye muli: eggunju, emmese, amakonkome amanene aga buli ngeri;
30 the gecko, and the monitor lizard, the wall lizard, the skink, and the chameleon.
anaka, enswaswa, omunya, ekkonkome, ne nnawolovu.
31 These are they which are unclean to you among all that creep. Whoever touches them when they are dead shall be unclean until the evening.
Mu ezo zonna ezisoobera ku ttaka ezo teziibenga nnongoofu gye muli. Era buli anaazikwatangako nga zimaze okufa anaabanga afuuse atali mulongoofu okutuusa akawungeezi.
32 Anything they fall on when they are dead shall be unclean; whether it is any vessel of wood, or clothing, or skin, or sack, whatever vessel it is, with which any work is done, it must be put into water, and it shall be unclean until the evening. Then it will be clean.
Era emu ku zo bw’eneefanga n’egwa ku kintu eky’engeri yonna ekikozesebwa, ekintu ekyo kinaafuukanga ekitali kirongoofu, obanga ekintu ekyo kyakolebwa mu muti, oba mu lugoye, oba mu ddiba oba mu kkutiya. Kiteekebwenga mu mazzi. Tekiibenga kirongoofu okutuusa akawungeezi; kyokka oluvannyuma kinaalongookanga.
33 Every earthen vessel into which any of them falls and all that is in it shall be unclean. You shall break it.
Era emu ku zo bw’eneegwanga mu nsaka ey’ebbumba, byonna ebiri mu nsaka omwo binaafuukanga ebitali birongoofu, era ensaka eyo muteekwa buteekwa okugyasanga.
34 All food which may be eaten which is soaked in water shall be unclean. All drink that may be drunk in every such vessel shall be unclean.
Emmere eneebanga egenda okuliibwa naye n’ebaako amazzi agavudde mu nsaka omwo, teebenga nnongoofu, n’amazzi agandinywereddwa okuva mu nsaka omwo tegaabenga malongoofu.
35 Everything whereupon part of their carcass falls shall be unclean; whether oven, or range for pots, it shall be broken in pieces. They are unclean, and shall be unclean to you.
Era buli kintu kyonna omulambo gw’ensolo zino kwe gunaabanga gugudde ku masiga okufumbirwa oba mu ntamu, binaayasibwayasibwanga, kubanga si birongoofu; era tebiibenga birongoofu gye muli.
36 Nevertheless a spring or a cistern in which water is gathered shall be clean, but that which touches their carcass shall be unclean.
Naye bwe gunaagwanga mu luzzi oba mu ppipa y’amazzi, ebyo byo binaasigalanga birongoofu; naye oyo yenna anaakwatanga ku mulambo ogwo taabenga mulongoofu.
37 If part of their carcass falls on any sowing seed which is to be sown, it is clean.
Singa omulambo gugwa ku nsigo ez’engeri yonna ezigenda okusimbibwa, zinaasigalanga nnongoofu.
38 But if water is put on the seed, and part of their carcass falls on it, it is unclean to you.
Naye singa ensigo ziyiyibbwako amazzi, omulambo ne guzigwako, teziibenga nnongoofu gye muli.
39 “‘If any animal of which you may eat dies, he who touches its carcass shall be unclean until the evening.
“Singa ensolo yonna ku ezo ze mukkirizibwa okulya efa, oyo yenna anaakwatanga ku mulambo gwayo anaabanga atali mulongoofu okutuusa akawungeezi.
40 He who eats of its carcass shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening. He also who carries its carcass shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening.
Oyo anaalyanga ku nnyama y’omulambo kinaamusaaniranga okwoza engoye ze, era taabenga mulongoofu okutuusa akawungeezi. Oyo yenna anaasitulanga omulambo, kinaamusaaniranga okwoza engoye ze, naye taabenga mulongoofu okutuusa akawungeezi.
41 “‘Every creeping thing that creeps on the earth is an abomination. It shall not be eaten.
“Buli kitonde kyonna ekitambulira ku ttaka kinaabanga kya muzizo, temuukiryenga.
42 Whatever goes on its belly, and whatever goes on all fours, or whatever has many feet, even all creeping things that creep on the earth, them you shall not eat; for they are an abomination.
Temuulyenga kitonde kyonna ekyekululira ku ttaka, obanga kyewalulira ku lubuto lwakyo, oba nga kitambuza amagulu, oba nga kikozesa ebigere bingi; kinaabanga kya muzizo.
43 You shall not make yourselves abominable with any creeping thing that creeps. You shall not make yourselves unclean with them, that you should be defiled by them.
Temuganyanga kwonoonebwa bitonde ebyo n’ekimu. Temubikozesanga temulwa kweyonoona, era temubikkirizanga kubafuula abatali balongoofu.
44 For I am the LORD your God. Sanctify yourselves therefore, and be holy; for I am holy. You shall not defile yourselves with any kind of creeping thing that moves on the earth.
Kubanga Nze Mukama Katonda wammwe, kale mwetukuzanga ne mubeera batukuvu, kubanga Nze ndi mutukuvu. Temwesemberezanga ebitonde ebyo ebitambulira ku ttaka ne bibafuula abatali balongoofu.
45 For I am the LORD who brought you up out of the land of Egypt, to be your God. You shall therefore be holy, for I am holy.
Kubanga Nze Mukama eyabaggya mu nsi ey’e Misiri, okubeera Katonda wammwe; noolwekyo kibasaanira okubeeranga abatukuvu, kubanga Nze ndi mutukuvu.
46 “‘This is the law of the animal, and of the bird, and of every living creature that moves in the waters, and of every creature that creeps on the earth,
“Ago ge mateeka agakwata ku nsolo, ne ku nnyonyi, ne ku buli kiramu kyonna eky’omu mazzi, ne ku buli kitonde kyonna ekyewalulira ku ttaka.
47 to make a distinction between the unclean and the clean, and between the living thing that may be eaten and the living thing that may not be eaten.’”
Kibasaaniranga mwawulemu, mu bitonde ebiramu ebirongoofu ebisaana okuliibwanga, ne mu bitonde ebiramu ebitali birongoofu ebitasaana kuliibwanga.”
