Leviticus 2

1 When you bring a grain offering to the Lord, your offering be of the best flour. Pour olive oil on it and put frankincense on it,

Lalapho umuntu enikela eNkosini umnikelo wokudla, umnikelo wakhe uzakuba ngowempuphu ecolekileyo; abesethela amafutha phezu kwawo, abeke inhlaka kuwo,

2 and take it to Aaron's sons the priests. The priest shall take a handful of the flour and olive oil mixture, as well as all the frankincense, and burn this as a ‘reminder part’ on the altar, a food offering, to be accepted by the Lord.

awulethe kumadodana kaAroni, abapristi, acuphe kuwo isandla sakhe esigcweleyo impuphu yawo ecolekileyo lokwamafutha awo, kanye lenhlaka yawo yonke; lompristi atshise isikhumbuzo sawo elathini, umnikelo owenziwe ngomlilo, oloqhatshi olumnandi eNkosini.

3 The rest of the grain offering is for Aaron and his sons; it is a most holy part of the offerings given to the Lord as food offerings.

Lokuseleyo komnikelo wokudla kuzakuba ngokukaAroni lokwamadodana akhe; kuyingcwelengcwele eminikelweni yeNkosi eyenziwe ngomlilo.

4 If your offering is of grain baked in an oven, it must be made from fine flour without using yeast. It can be cakes mixed with olive oil or wafers with olive oil spread on them.

Nxa uletha-ke umnikelo womnikelo wokudla ophekwe eziko, kawube ngowamaqebelengwana angelamvubelo empuphu ecolekileyo ahlanganiswe lamafutha, loba izinkwana eziyizipatalala ezingelamvubelo ezinindwe ngamafutha.

5 If your offering is a grain offering cooked on a griddle, it must be made of fine flour mixed with olive oil without using yeast.

Uba-ke umnikelo wakho ungumnikelo wokudla ophekwe ngomganu oyincence, uzakuba ngowempuphu ecolekileyo engelamvubelo, ixubene lamafutha.

6 Break it up and pour olive oil over it; it is a grain offering.

Uwuhlephune ube yizihlephu, uthele amafutha kuzo; kungumnikelo wokudla.

7 If your offering is a grain offering cooked in a pan, it must be made of fine flour with olive oil.

Uba-ke umnikelo wakho ungumnikelo wokudla ophekwe ngembiza, kuzakwenziwa ngempuphu ecolekileyo kanye lamafutha.

8 Bring to the Lord the grain offering made in whichever of these ways. Present it to the priest, and who will take it to the altar.

Njalo uzaletha umnikelo wokudla owenziwe ngalezizinto eNkosini; nxa ulethwa kumpristi, uzawuletha elathini.

9 The priest is to take the ‘reminder part’ from the grain offering and burn it on the altar as a food offering, to be accepted by the Lord.

Umpristi uzathatha emnikelweni wokudla isikhumbuzo sawo, asitshise elathini; singumnikelo owenziwe ngomlilo, oloqhatshi olumnandi eNkosini.

10 The rest of the grain offering is for Aaron and his sons; it is a most holy part of the food offerings given to the Lord.

Lokuseleyo komnikelo wokudla kuzakuba ngokukaAroni lokwamadodana akhe; kuyingcwelengcwele eminikelweni yeNkosi eyenziwe ngomlilo.

11 No grain offering that you give to the Lord may be made using yeast. Don't burn any yeast or honey as a food offering to the Lord.

Kakulamnikelo wokudla elizawuletha eNkosini ozakwenziwa ngemvubelo, ngoba kawuyikutshisa langayiphi imvubelo loba ngaluphi uluju umnikelo owenzelwe iNkosi ngomlilo.

12 You may give them to the Lord when you present your offerings of firstfruits, but they are not to be offered on the altar to be to be accepted by the Lord.

Umnikelo wezithelo zokuqala lizawunikela eNkosini, kodwa kawuyikutshiswa elathini kube luqhatshi olumnandi.

13 All of your grain offerings are to be seasoned with salt. Don't leave the salt of God's agreement out of your grain offering. Add salt to all of your offerings.

Lawo wonke umnikelo womnikelo wakho wokudla uzawutshwaya ngetshwayi; njalo ungavumeli ukuthi itshwayi lesivumelwano sikaNkulunkulu wakho lisweleke emnikelweni wakho wokudla; kanye leminikelo yakho yonke uzanikela itshwayi.

14 When you bring a grain offering of firstfruits to the Lord, offer crushed heads of new grain roasted on the fire.

Uba-ke unikela umnikelo wokudla wezithelo zokuqala eNkosini, uzanikela kube ngumnikelo wokudla ezithelweni zakho zokuqala amabele amatsha ayizikhwebu ezosiweyo, amabele achotshoziweyo ezikhwebu ezintsha;

15 Put olive oil and frankincense on it; it is a grain offering.

uthele amafutha kuwo, ubeke inhlaka phezu kwawo; kungumnikelo wokudla.

16 The priest will burn the ‘reminder part’ of the crushed grain and olive oil, as well as all its frankincense, as a food offering to the Lord.”

Umpristi uzatshisa-ke isikhumbuzo sawo, okwamabele achotshoziweyo awo lokwamafutha awo, layo yonke inhlaka yawo; kungumnikelo owenzelwe iNkosi ngomlilo.
