Leviticus 11
1 And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying:
Awo Mukama Katonda n’agamba Musa ne Alooni nti,
2 Say to the children of Israel: These are the animals which you are to eat of all the living things of the earth.
“Mutegeeze abaana ba Isirayiri nti bino bye biramu bye munaayinzanga okulya mu bisolo byonna eby’oku nsi.
3 Whatsoever hath the hoof divided, and cheweth the cud among the beasts, you shall eat.
Munaayinzanga okulya ensolo yonna erina ekigere ekyaseemu nga kyeyawulidde ddala, era ng’ezza obwenkulumu.
4 But whatsoever cheweth indeed the cud, and hath a hoof, but divideth it not, as the camel, and others, that you shall not eat, but shall reckon it among the unclean.
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 cherogrillus which cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof, is unclean.
N’omusu nagwo guzza obwenkulumu, naye ebigere byagwo si byaseemu; noolwekyo si mulongoofu.
6 The hare also: for that too cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof.
Ate n’akamyu ak’omu nsiko, newaakubadde nako kazza obwenkulumu naye ebigere byako si byaseemu, noolwekyo si kalongoofu, era temukalyanga.
7 And the swine, which, though it divideth the hoof, cheweth not the cud.
Ate mulabe embizzi, newaakubadde ng’ekigere kyayo kyaseemu, ate nga kyeyawulidde ddala, naye tezza bwenkulumu; noolwekyo si nnongoofu gye muli.
8 The flesh of these you shall not eat, nor shall you touch their carcasses, because they are unclean to you.
Ebisolo ng’ebyo temulyanga nnyama yaabyo, wadde okukwatako ku mirambo gyabyo; kubanga si birongoofu gye muli.
9 These are the things that breed in the waters, and which it is lawful to eat. All that hath fins, and scales, as well in the sea, as in the rivers, and the pools, you shall eat.
“Ku biramu ebiri mu mazzi ag’omu nnyanja n’ag’omu migga mulyangako ebyo ebirina amatu awamu n’amagagamba ku mubiri gwabyo.
10 But whatsoever hath not fins and scales, of those things that move and live in the waters, shall be 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 detestable: their flesh you shall not eat, and their carcasses you shall avoid.
Nga bwe binaabanga eby’omuzizo gye muli, temuulyenga ku nnyama yaabyo, era n’emirambo gyabyo ginaabanga gya muzizo.
12 All that have not fins and scales, in the waters, shall be unclean.
Buli kiramu kyonna ekibeera mu mazzi naye nga tekiriiko matu wadde amagagamba kinaabanga kya muzizo gye muli.
13 Of birds these are they which you must not eat, and which are to be avoided by you: The eagle, and the griffon, and the osprey,
“Mu nnyonyi, zino ze z’omuzizo era temuuziryenga: empungu, ensega, makwanzi,
14 And the kite, and the vulture, according to their kind,
kamunye, eddiirawamu erya buli ngeri,
15 And all that is of the raven kind, according to their likeness.
ne namuŋŋoona owa buli ngeri;
16 The ostrich, and the owl, and the larus, and the hawk according to its kind.
maaya, olubugabuga, olusobe, enkambo eza buli ngeri,
17 The screech owl, and the cormorant, and the ibis,
ekiwuugulu, enkobyokkobyo, ekkufufu,
18 And the swan, and the bittern, and the porphyrion,
ekiwuugulu eky’amatu, ne kimbala, ensega,
19 The heron, and the charadrion according to its kind, the houp also, and the bat.
kasida, mpabaana owa buli ngeri, ekkookootezi, n’ekinyira.
20 Of things that fly, whatsoever goeth upon four feet, shall be abominable to you.
“Ebiwuka byonna ebirina ebiwaawaatiro nga bitambuza amagulu ana binaabanga bya muzizo gye muli.
21 But whatsoever walketh upon four feet, but hath the legs behind longer, wherewith it hoppeth upon 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 That you shall eat, as the bruchus in its kind, the attacus, and ophiomachus, and the locust, every one according to their kind.
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 of dying things whatsoever hath four feet only, shall be an abomination to you:
Naye ebiwuka ebirala byonna eby’ebiwaawaatiro nga birina amagulu ana binaabanga bya muzizo gye muli.
24 And whosoever shall touch the carcasses of them, shall be defiled, and 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 And if it be necessary that he carry any of these things when they are dead, he shall wash his clothes, and shall be unclean until the sun set.
Era buli anaasitulanga ekitundu kyonna eky’omulambo gwazo anaateekwanga okwoza engoye ze, kyokka era anaabanga afuuse atali mulongoofu okutuusa akawungeezi.
26 Every beast that hath a hoof, but divideth it not, nor cheweth the cud, shall be unclean: and he that toucheth it, shall be defiled.
“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 That which walketh upon hands of all animals which go on all four, shall be unclean: he that shall touch their carcasses shall be defiled until 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 And he that shall carry such carcasses, shall wash his clothes, and shall be unclean until evening: because all these things 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 also shall be reckoned among unclean things, of all that move upon the earth, the weasel, and the mouse, and the crocodile, every one according to their kind:
“Mu nsolo ezigenda zisoobera ku ttaka; zino teziibenga nnongoofu gye muli: eggunju, emmese, amakonkome amanene aga buli ngeri;
30 The shrew, and the chameleon, and the stello, and the lizard, and the mole:
anaka, enswaswa, omunya, ekkonkome, ne nnawolovu.
31 All these are unclean. He that toucheth their carcasses 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 And upon what thing soever any of their carcasses shall fall, it shall be defiled, whether it be a vessel of wood, or a garment, or skins or haircloths; or any thing in which work is done, they shall be dipped in water, and shall be unclean until the evening, and so afterwards shall 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 But an earthen vessel, into which any of these shall fall, shall be defiled, and therefore is to be broken.
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 Any meat which you eat, if water from such a vessel be poured upon it, shall be unclean; and every liquor that is drunk out of any 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 And upon whatsoever thing any of these dead beasts shall fall, it shall be unclean: whether it be oven, or pots with feet, they shall be destroyed, and shall be unclean.
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 But fountains and cisterns, and all gatherings together of waters shall be clean. He that toucheth their carcasses shall be defiled.
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 it fall upon seed corn, it shall not defile it.
Singa omulambo gugwa ku nsigo ez’engeri yonna ezigenda okusimbibwa, zinaasigalanga nnongoofu.
38 But if any man pour water upon the seed, and afterwards it be touched by the carcasses, it shall be forthwith defiled.
Naye singa ensigo ziyiyibbwako amazzi, omulambo ne guzigwako, teziibenga nnongoofu gye muli.
39 If any beast die, of which it is lawful for you to eat, he that toucheth the carcass thereof, 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 And he that eateth or carrieth any thing thereof, shall wash his clothes, and shall 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 All that creepeth upon the earth shall be abominable, neither shall it be taken for meat.
“Buli kitonde kyonna ekitambulira ku ttaka kinaabanga kya muzizo, temuukiryenga.
42 Whatsoever goeth upon the breast on four feet, or hath many feet, or traileth on the earth, you shall not eat, because it is abominable.
Temuulyenga kitonde kyonna ekyekululira ku ttaka, obanga kyewalulira ku lubuto lwakyo, oba nga kitambuza amagulu, oba nga kikozesa ebigere bingi; kinaabanga kya muzizo.
43 Do not defile your souls, nor touch aught thereof, lest you be unclean,
Temuganyanga kwonoonebwa bitonde ebyo n’ekimu. Temubikozesanga temulwa kweyonoona, era temubikkirizanga kubafuula abatali balongoofu.
44 For I am the Lord your God: be holy because I am holy. Defile not your souls by any creeping thing, that moveth upon 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 out of the land of Egypt, that I might be your God.
Kubanga Nze Mukama eyabaggya mu nsi ey’e Misiri, okubeera Katonda wammwe; noolwekyo kibasaanira okubeeranga abatukuvu, kubanga Nze ndi mutukuvu.
46 You shall be holy, because I am holy. This is the law of beasts and fowls, and of every living creature that moveth in the waters, and creepeth 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 That you may know the differences of the clean, and unclean, and know what you ought to eat, and what to refuse.
Kibasaaniranga mwawulemu, mu bitonde ebiramu ebirongoofu ebisaana okuliibwanga, ne mu bitonde ebiramu ebitali birongoofu ebitasaana kuliibwanga.”
