< Numbers 18 >

1 And the Lord sayd vnto Aaron, Thou, and thy sonnes and thy fathers house with thee, shall beare the iniquitie of the Sanctuarie: both thou and thy sonnes with thee shall beare the iniquitie of your Priestes office.
Yehova anawuza Aaroni kuti, “Iwe, ana ako aamuna ndi banja la abambo ako mudzasenza tchimo la malo wopatulika, koma iwe ndi ana ako aamuna okha mudzasenza tchimo lokhudza unsembe wanu.
2 And bring also with thee thy brethren of the tribe of Leui of ye familie of thy father, which shalbe ioyned with thee, and minister vnto thee: but thou, and thy sonnes with thee shall minister before the Tabernacle of the Testimonie:
Ubweretse Alevi, abale ako, kuchokera ku fuko la abambo ako kuti azikhala ndi iwe ndi kumakuthandiza pamodzi ndi ana ako amuna pamene mukutumikira mu tenti ya umboni.
3 And they shall keepe thy charge, euen the charge of all the Tabernacle: but they shall not come neere the instruments of the Sanctuary, nor to the altar, lest they die, both they and you:
Iwowo azikutumikirani ndipo azichita ntchito zonse za ku tenti, koma asamafike pafupi ndi zipangizo za ku malo opatulika kapena guwa lansembe, kuopa kuti iwo ndi inu mungafe.
4 And they shalbe ioyned with thee, and keepe the charge of the Tabernacle of the Congregation for all the seruice of the Tabernacle: and no stranger shall come neere vnto you:
Azikhala ndi inu ndipo azisamalira ntchito yonse ya mu tenti ya msonkhano koma munthu wina aliyense wapadera sayenera kufika pafupi nanu.
5 Therefore shall ye keepe the charge of the Sanctuarie, and the charge of the altar: so there shall fall no more wrath vpon the children of Israel.
“Inuyo muzisamalira malo wopatulika ndi guwa lansembe, kuti ukali wa Yehova usawagwerenso Aisraeli.
6 For lo, I haue taken your brethren the Leuites from among the children of Israel, which as a gift of yours, are giuen vnto the Lord, to do the seruice of the Tabernacle of the Congregation.
Ine mwini ndasankha Alevi, abale ako, pakati pa Aisraeli ngati mphatso yako ndipo aperekedwa kwa Yehova kuti azigwira ntchito ku tenti ya msonkhano.
7 But thou, and thy sonnes with thee shall keepe your Priestes office for all things of the altar, and within the vaile: therefore shall ye serue: for I haue made your Priestes office an office of seruice: therefore the stranger that cometh neere, shalbe slayne.
Koma iwe wekha ndi ana ako aamuna muzitumikira ngati ansembe ndi zina zonse zokhudza pa guwa lansembe ndi za mʼkati mwa malo wopatulika kwambiri. Ndikukupatsani mphatso ya utumiki wa unsembe. Aliyense woyandikira malo wopatulika ayenera kuphedwa.
8 Againe the Lord spake vnto Aaron, Behold, I haue giuen thee the keeping of mine offrings, of all the hallowed things of the children of Israel: vnto thee I haue giuen them for the anoyntings sake, and to thy sonnes, for a perpetuall ordinance.
“Kenaka Yehova anati kwa Aaroni, ona, Ine mwini ndikukuyika kuti ukhale woyangʼanira zopereka zobwera kwa Ine; zopereka zonse zopatulika za Aisraeli zimene amapereka kwa ine ndi kuzipereka kwa iwe ndi ana ako aamuna ngati gawo lanu la nthawi zonse.
9 This shalbe thine of the most holy things, reserued from the fire: all their offering of all their meate offring, and of all their sinne offring, and of all their trespasse offring, which they bring vnto me, that shalbe most holy vnto thee, and to thy sonnes.
Uzilandiranso gawo la zopereka zopatulika kwambiri zomwe sizinawotchedwe pa moto. Kuchokera pa mphatso zonse zimene amabweretsa kwa Ine ngati zopatulika kwambiri, nsembe zachakudya kapena nsembe zopepesera machimo, gawo limenelo ndi lako ndi ana ako aamuna.
10 In the most holy place shalt thou eate it: euery male shall eate of it: it is holy vnto thee.
Muzidya zimenezo ngati zinthu zopatulika kwambiri; mwamuna aliyense adyeko. Uzitenge kukhala zopatulika.
11 This also shalbe thine: the heaue offering of their gift, with all the shake offerings of the children of Israel: I haue giuen them vnto thee and to thy sonnes and to thy daughters with thee, to be a duetie for euer al the cleane in thine house shall eate of it.
“Izinso ndi zako: chilichonse chopatulidwa kuchokera ku mphatso zoweyula za Aisraeli ndapereka kwa iwe ndi ana ako aamuna ndi aakazi ngati gawo lako la nthawi zonse. Aliyense wa mʼnyumba mwako amene ali woyeretsedwa monga mwa mwambo angathe kudyako.
12 All the fat of the oyle, and all the fat of the wine, and of the wheate, which they shall offer vnto the Lord for their first fruites, I haue giuen them vnto thee.
“Ndikukupatsani mafuta onse abwino kwambiri a olivi ndi vinyo yense watsopano wabwino kwambiri ndi tirigu yense zomwe Aisraeli amapereka kwa Yehova ngati zipatso zoyamba pa zokolola zawo.
13 And the first ripe of al that is in their land, which they shall bring vnto Lord, shalbe thine: all the cleane in thine house shall eate of it.
Zipatso zonse zoyamba kucha za mʼdziko lawo zomwe amapereka kwa Yehova zidzakhala zako. Aliyense mʼnyumba mwako amene ali woyeretsedwa angathe kudyako.
14 Euery thing separate from the common vse in Israel, shalbe thine.
“Chilichonse mu Israeli chomwe chapatulidwira Yehova ndi chako.
15 All that first openeth the matrice of any flesh, which they shall offer vnto the Lord, of man or beast, shalbe thine: but the first borne of man shalt thou redeeme, and the first borne of the vncleane beast shalt thou redeeme.
Chilichonse choyamba kubadwa kwa munthu kaya nyama, chomwe chaperekedwa kwa Yehova ndi chako. Koma uyenera kuwombola mwana aliyense wamwamuna ndi mwana aliyense woyamba wa nyama zodetsedwa.
16 And those that are to bee redeemed, shalt thou redeeme from the age of a moneth, according to thy estimation, for the money of fiue shekels, after the shekel of the Sanctuarie, which is twentie gerahs.
Pamene zili ndi mwezi umodzi wa kubadwa, uziwombole pa mtengo wowombolera wa ndalama zisanu zasiliva, monga mwa ndalama za ku malo wopatulika.
17 But the first borne of a kow, or the first borne of a sheepe, or the first borne of a goate shalt thou not redeeme: for they are holy: thou shalt sprinkle their blood at the altar, and thou shalt burne their fat: it is a sacrifice made by fire for a sweete sauour vnto the Lord.
“Koma usawombole ana oyamba kubadwa a ngʼombe, nkhosa kapena mbuzi. Iwo ndi opatulika. Uwaze magazi a nyamazi pa guwa lansembe ndi kutentha mafuta ake ngati nsembe yotentha ndi moto kuti likhale fungo lokoma kwa Yehova.
18 And the flesh of them shalbe thine, as the shake breast, and as the right shoulder shalbe thine.
Nyama yake ikhale yanu monga momwe chimakhalira chidale cha nsembe yoweyula ndi ntchafu za miyendo ya kumanja, zonsezi ndi zako.
19 All the heaue offrings of the holy things which the children of Israel shall offer vnto the Lord, haue I giuen thee, and thy sonnes, and thy daughters with thee, to be a duetie for euer: it is a perpetual couenant of salt before the Lord, to thee, and to thy seede with thee.
Zonse zimene mwazichotsa ku zopereka zoyera zomwe Aisraeli anapereka kwa Yehova ndazipereka kwa iwe ndi ana ako aamuna ndi aakazi ngati gawo lanu nthawi zonse. Ili ndi pangano losatha la mchere pamaso pa Yehova kwa iwe ndi ana ako.”
20 And the Lord sayde vnto Aaron, Thou shalt haue none inheritance in their lande, neyther shalt thou haue any parte among them: I am thy part and thine inheritance among the children of Israel.
Ndipo Yehova anati kwa Aaroni, “Iweyo sudzakhala ndi cholowa mʼdziko lawo, ndiponso sudzalandira gawo lililonse pakati pawo. Ine ndine gawo lako ndi cholowa chako pakati pa Aisraeli.
21 For beholde, I haue giuen the children of Leui all the tenth in Israel for an inheritance, for their seruice which they serue in the Tabernacle of the Congregation.
“Taonani, ndawapatsa Alevi chakhumi chonse mu Israeli ngati cholowa chawo chifukwa cha ntchito ya ku tenti ya msonkhano.
22 Neyther shall the children of Israel any more come neere the Tabernacle of the Congregation, lest they susteine sinne, and die.
Kuyambira tsopano mpaka mʼtsogolo Aisraeli asamapite pafupi ndi tenti ya msonkhano. Ngati atero adzasenza zotsatira za tchimo lawo ndipo adzafa.
23 But the Leuites shall do the seruice in the Tabernacle of the Congregation, and they shall beare their sinne: it is a law for euer in your generations, that among the children of Israel they possesse none inheritance.
Alevi ndi amene azidzagwira ntchito ya ku tenti ya msonkhano ndipo adzalangidwa chilichonse chikalakwika. Ili ndi lamulo losatha kwa mibado yawo yonse. Iwowo sadzalandira cholowa pakati pa Aisraeli.
24 For the tythes of the children of Israel, which they shall offer as an offring vnto the Lord, I haue giuen the Leuites for an inheritance: therfore I haue said vnto them, Among the children of Israel ye shall possesse none inheritance.
Mʼmalo mwake, ndikuwapatsa Aleviwo chakhumi ngati cholowa chawo chimene Aisraeli amapereka kwa Yehova. Nʼchifukwa chake zokhudza iwo ndinati: ‘Sadzakhala ndi cholowa pakati pa Aisraeli.’”
25 And the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,
Yehova anati kwa Mose,
26 Speake also vnto the Leuites and say vnto them, When ye shall take of the children of Israel the tithes, which I haue giuen you of them for your inheritance, then shall ye take an heaue offring of that same for the Lord, euen the tenth part of the tithe.
“Yankhula ndi Alevi ndi kunena nawo kuti, ‘Pamene mulandira chakhumi kuchoka kwa Aisraeli chimene ndimakupatsani ngati cholowa chanu, muyenera kupereka chakhumi cha choperekacho kwa Yehova.
27 And your heaue offering shalbe reckened vnto you, as the corne of the barne, or as the abundance of the wine presse.
Chopereka chanucho chidzawerengedwa kwa inu ngati tirigu wochokera kopunthira kapena ngati mphesa zopsinya kuchokera kopsinyira mphesa.
28 So ye shall also offer an heaue offring vnto the Lord of all your tithes, which ye shall receiue of the children of Israel, and ye shall giue thereof the Lords heaue offring to Aaron the Priest.
Mwa njira imeneyi inunso muzipereka chopereka kwa Yehova kuchokera ku chakhumi chanu chilichonse chimene mumalandira kuchokera kwa Aisraeli. Kuchokera ku chakhumicho muziperekako gawo la Yehova kwa Aaroni, wansembe.
29 Ye shall offer of all your gifts al the Lords heaue offrings: of all the fat of the same shall ye offer the holy things thereof.
Muyenera kupereka monga gawo la Yehova magawo abwino kwambiri ndi opatulika a chilichonse chimene chapatsidwa kwa inu.’
30 Therefore thou shalt say vnto them, When ye haue offred the fat thereof, then it shalbe couted vnto the Leuites, as the encrease of the corne floore, or as the encrease of the wine presse.
“Nena kwa Alevi: ‘Pamene mupereka gawo labwino lopambana zonse, gawo limenelo lidzawerengedwa kwa inu ngati lochokera popunthira tirigu kapenanso kopsinyira mphesa.
31 And ye shall eate it in al places, ye, and your housholdes: for it is your wages for your seruice in the Tabernacle of the Congregation.
Inu ndi a pa banja panu mungathe kudyera zimenezi paliponse chifukwa ndi malipiro a ntchito yanu ya ku tenti ya msonkhano.
32 And ye shall beare no sinne by the reason of it, when ye haue offred the fatte of it: neither shall ye pollute the holy things of the children of Israel, lest ye die.
Popereka gawo labwino kwambirilo simudzapezeka olakwa. Mukatero simudzadetsa zopereka zoyera za Aisraeli, ndipo simudzafa.’”
