< Leviticus 23 >

1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis okwu sị ya,
2 Speak to the children of Israel, and you shall say to them, The feasts of the Lord which you shall call holy assemblies, these are my feasts.
“Gwa ụmụ Izrel okwu sị ha, ‘Ndị a bụ mmemme a kara aka nye Onyenwe anyị, nke unu ga-ekwusa dịka mkpọkọta dị nsọ.
3 Six days shall you do works, but on the seventh day is the sabbath; a rest, a holy convocation to the Lord: you shall not do any work, it is a sabbath to the Lord in all your dwellings.
“‘Ụbọchị isii ka unu ga-eji rụọ ọrụ. Ma ụbọchị nke asaa, bụ ụbọchị izuike, ụbọchị mkpọkọta dị nsọ. Unu agaghị arụ ọrụ ọbụla nʼụbọchị ahụ, nʼebe ọbụla unu bi. Ọ bụ ụbọchị izuike nye Onyenwe anyị.
4 These [are] the feasts to the Lord, holy convocations, which you shall call in their seasons.
“‘Ndị a bụ mmemme Onyenwe anyị a kara aka, mkpọkọta dị nsọ nke unu ga-ekwusa nʼoge a kara aka.
5 In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month, between the evening times is the Lord's passover.
Nʼọnwa mbụ, nʼụbọchị nke iri na anọ nke ọnwa ahụ, nʼoge uhuruchi, mgbe anwụ dara, ka Mmemme Ngabiga Onyenwe anyị ga-adị.
6 And on the fifteenth day of this month is the feast of unleavened bread to the Lord; seven days shall you eat unleavened bread.
Mmemme achịcha na-ekoghị eko Onyenwe anyị ka unu ga-ebido nʼụbọchị iri na ise nke ọnwa ahụ. Abalị asaa ka unu ga-eri achịcha a na-ejighị ihe na-eko achịcha mee.
7 And the first day shall be a holy convocation to you: you shall do no servile work.
Nʼụbọchị mbụ nke mmemme a, unu ga-enwe mkpọkọta dị nsọ, ọ dịkwaghị onye ọbụla ga-arụ ọrụ ọbụla.
8 And you shall offer whole burnt offerings to the Lord seven days; and the seventh day shall be a holy convocation to you: you shall do no servile work.
Unu ga-eweta aja e sitere nʼọkụ chụọ nye Onyenwe anyị. Nʼụbọchị nke asaa nweenụ mkpọkọta dị nsọ, unu arụkwala ọrụ nke ụbọchị ahụ.’”
9 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis sị ya,
10 Speak to the children of Israel, and you shall say to them, When you shall enter into the land which I give you, and reap the harvest of it, then shall you bring a sheaf, the first fruits of your harvest, to the priest;
“Gwa ụmụ Izrel sị ha, ‘Mgbe unu banyere nʼala ahụ m na-aga inye unu, ghọta mkpụrụ ihe ubi nke mbụ unu, unu ga-ewetara onye nchụaja otu ukwu ọka site nʼọka unu ghọtara nʼubi unu.
11 and he shall lift up the sheaf before the Lord, to be accepted for you. On the morrow of the first day the priest shall lift it up.
Ọ ga-anara unu ukwu ọka ahụ fufee ya nʼihu Onyenwe anyị, ka a nabata ya. Ọ bụ nʼụbọchị ahụ ga-esote ụbọchị izuike ka onye nchụaja ga-efufe ya.
12 And you shall offer on the day on which you bring the sheaf, a lamb without blemish of a year old for a whole burnt offering to the Lord.
Nʼotu ụbọchị ahụ e fufere ukwu ọka ahụ, unu ga-ewere nwa ebule na-enweghị ntụpọ, nke gbara naanị otu afọ, chụọrọ Onyenwe anyị aja nsure ọkụ.
13 And its meat-offering two tenth portions of fine flour mingled with oil: it is a sacrifice to the Lord, a smell of sweet savor to the Lord, and its drink-offering the fourth part of a hin of wine.
Aja mkpụrụ ọka ga-eso aja nsure ọkụ a. Ọ ga-eji iko ọka a kwọrọ nke ọma iri na abụọ a gwara mmanụ oliv, ka ọ bụrụ ihe e surere nʼọkụ na-esi ezi isi ọma nye Onyenwe anyị. A ga-enyekwa iko mmanya atọ dịka onyinye ihe ọṅụṅụ
14 And you shall not eat bread, or the new parched corn, until this same day, until you offer the sacrifices to your God: [it is] a perpetual statute throughout your generations in all your dwellings.
Unu agaghị eri achịcha, maọbụ ọka e ghere eghe, maọbụ ọka ọhụrụ tutu ruo mgbe unu buru ụzọ weta onyinye nye Chineke unu. Nʼebe ọbụla unu bi, ụkpụrụ a ga-adịgide ruo ọgbọ niile.
15 And you shall number to yourselves from the day after the sabbath, from the day on which you shall offer the sheaf of the heave-offering, seven full weeks:
“‘Site nʼụbọchị ahụ sotere ụbọchị izuike, bụ ụbọchị ahụ unu wetara ukwu ọka nke onyinye mfufe, gụpụta izu asaa zuru ezu.
16 until the morrow after the last week you shall number fifty days, and shall bring a new meat-offering to the Lord.
Gụpụtakwa iri ụbọchị ise site nʼụbọchị izuike ahụ mezuru izu asaa ahụ ma wetara Onyenwe anyị onyinye ọka ọhụrụ.
17 You shall bring from your dwelling loaves, as a heave-offering, two loaves: they shall be of two tenth portions of fine flour, they shall be baked with leaven of the first fruits to the Lord.
Site nʼebe ọbụla unu bi, unu ga-ewetara Onyenwe anyị ogbe achịcha abụọ nke unu ji iko ọka a kwọrọ nke ọma iri na abụọ, nke e ji ihe na-eko achịcha mee, ya bụ yiist, dịka aja mfufe nke mkpụrụ mbụ nye Onyenwe anyị.
18 And you shall bring with the loaves seven unblemished lambs of a year old, and one calf of the herd, and two rams without blemish, and they shall be a whole burnt offering to the Lord: and their meat-offerings and their drink-offerings [shall be] a sacrifice, a smell of sweet savor to the Lord.
Tinyere achịcha a, unu ga-eweta ụmụ atụrụ asaa gbara otu afọ, ndị na-enweghị ntụpọ, na otu nwa oke ehi, na ebule abụọ. Ha ga-abụ aja nsure ọkụ nye Onyenwe anyị, ya na aja mkpụrụ ọka na aja ihe ọṅụṅụ, aja e sitere nʼọkụ chụọ, nke isisi ya dị ezi mma nye Onyenwe anyị.
19 And they shall sacrifice one kid of the goats for a sin-offering, and two lambs of a year old for a peace-offering, with the loaves of the first fruits.
Unu ga-ejikwa otu mkpi chụọ aja mmehie. Werekwa ụmụ atụrụ abụọ gbara otu afọ, otu afọ, chụọ aja udo.
20 And the priest shall place them with the loaves of the first fruits an offering before the Lord with the two lambs, they shall be holy to the Lord; they shall belong to the priest that brings them.
Onye nchụaja ga-efufe ụmụ atụrụ abụọ ndị a, na achịcha ndị si na mkpụrụ mbụ ahụ nʼihu Onyenwe anyị dịka aja mfufe. Ha bụ aja dị nsọ nye Onyenwe anyị. Ọ bụkwa ndị nchụaja ga-ewere ha dịka nri ha.
21 And you shall call this day a convocation: it shall be holy to you; you shall do no servile work on it: it is a perpetual ordinance throughout your generations in all your habitations.
Nʼotu ụbọchị ahụ unu ga-akpọsakwa mkpọkọta dị nsọ, unu arụkwala ọrụ nke ụbọchị ahụ. Nke a ga-abụ ụkpụrụ ga-adịgide ebighị ebi site nʼọgbọ ruo nʼọgbọ niile, nʼebe ọbụla unu bi.
22 And when you shall reap the harvest of your land, you shall not fully reap the remainder of the harvest of your field when you reap, and you shall not gather that which falls from your reaping; you shall leave it for the poor and the stranger: I [am] the Lord your God.
“‘Mgbe unu na-ewe ihe ubi, unu ewechala ihe niile dị nʼakụkụ niile nke ubi unu. Hapụrụnụ ha ụmụ ogbenye, na ndị ọbịa. Hapụkwara ha mkpụrụ ubi niile dara nʼala. Abụ m Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu.’”
23 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis sị,
24 Speak to the children of Israel, saying, In the seventh month, on the first day of the month, you shall have a rest, a memorial of trumpets: it shall be to you a holy convocation.
“Gwa ụmụ Izrel sị, ‘Ụbọchị mbụ nke ọnwa nke asaa ga-abụ ụbọchị izuike, ụbọchị mkpọkọta dị nsọ nke a ga-eji opi na-ada oke ụda cheta.
25 You shall do no servile work, and you shall offer a whole burnt offering to the Lord.
Unu arụla ọrụ ọbụla nʼụbọchị ahụ, kama unu ga-achụ aja nsure ọkụ nye Onyenwe anyị.’”
26 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis sị,
27 Also on the tenth day of this seventh month is a day of atonement: it shall be a holy convocation to you; and you shall humble your souls, and offer a whole burnt offering to the Lord.
“Ụbọchị nke iri nke ọnwa asaa a bụ ụbọchị Mkpuchi Mmehie. Ọ bụ ụbọchị mkpọkọta dị nsọ nye unu. Unu ga-ata onwe unu ahụhụ bịa wetara Onyenwe anyị onyinye site nʼọkụ.
28 You shall do no work on this self-same day: for this is a day of atonement for you, to make atonement for you before the Lord your God.
Unu arụla ọrụ ọbụla nʼụbọchị ahụ nʼihi na ụbọchị ahụ bụ ụbọchị ịchụ aja mkpuchi mmehie unu nʼihu Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu.
29 Every soul that shall not be humbled in that day, shall be cut off from among its people.
Onye ọbụla na-ejighị ụbọchị ahụ weda onwe ya nʼala ka a ga-ekewapụ site nʼetiti ndị ya.
30 And every soul which shall do work on that day, that soul shall be destroyed from among its people.
Aga m ebibikwa onye ọbụla rụrụ ọrụ nʼụbọchị ahụ.
31 You shall do no manner of work: it is a perpetual statute throughout your generations in all your habitations.
Unu agaghị arụ ọrụ ọbụla. Nʼebe ọbụla unu bi, ụkpụrụ a ga-adịgide nye unu niile site nʼọgbọ ruo nʼọgbọ.
32 It shall be a holy sabbath to you; and you shall humble your souls, from the ninth day of the month: from evening to evening you shall keep your sabbaths.
Ọ ga-abụ ụbọchị izuike zuruoke nye unu, unu ga-ewedakwa onwe unu nʼala. Nʼụbọchị nke itoolu nke ọnwa ahụ, site nʼuhuruchi ruo nʼuhuruchi nke na-esote ya, unu ga-edebe izuike unu.”
33 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis sị,
34 Speak to the children of Israel, saying, On the fifteenth day of this seventh month, there shall be a feast of tabernacles seven days to the Lord.
“Gwa ụmụ Izrel, ‘Nʼụbọchị nke iri na ise, nʼọnwa nke asaa, ka unu ga-amalite mmemme Ụlọ Ikwu Onyenwe anyị. A ga-eme ya ụbọchị asaa.
35 And on the first day shall be a holy convocation; you shall do no servile work.
Nʼụbọchị nke mbụ bụ ụbọchị mkpọkọta dị nsọ. Onye ọbụla agaghị arụ ọrụ nʼụbọchị ahụ.
36 Seven days shall you offer whole burnt offerings to the Lord, and the eighth-day shall be a holy convocation to you; and you shall offer whole burnt offerings to the Lord: it is a time of release, you shall do no servile work.
Nʼụbọchị ọbụla nʼime ụbọchị asaa ndị a niile ka a ga-ewetara Onyenwe anyị onyinye site nʼọkụ. Nʼụbọchị nke asatọ ka mkpọkọta dị nsọ ga-adị. A ga-achụ aja nsure ọkụ nye Onyenwe anyị, nʼụbọchị a. Ọ bụ mkpokọta mmechi, nʼihi ya, a gaghị arụ ọrụ ọbụla nʼụbọchị ahụ.
37 These [are] the feasts to the Lord, which you shall call holy convocations, to offer burnt offerings to the Lord, whole burnt offerings and their meat-offerings, and their drink-offerings, that for each day on its day:
(“‘Ndị a bụ mmemme a kara aka, mgbe a ga-ekwusa mkpọkọta dị nsọ maka iwetara Onyenwe anyị onyinye nri, ya bụ, onyinye aja nsure ọkụ, na onyinye mkpụrụ ọka, na aja dị iche iche, na onyinye ihe ọṅụṅụ dịka e sị hazie na ọ ga na-adị kwa ụbọchị.
38 besides the sabbaths of the Lord, and besides your gifts, and besides all your vows, and besides your free will offerings, which you shall give to the Lord.
Unu ga-enye onyinye ndị a, tinyere onyinye a na-enye Onyenwe anyị nʼụbọchị izuike, na tinyere onyinye ndị ọzọ unu na-enye na ihe ndị ọzọ unu kwere na nkwa, na onyinye afọ ofufu niile unu na-enye Onyenwe anyị.)
39 And on the fifteenth day of this seventh month, when you shall have completely gathered in the fruits of the earth, you shall keep a feast to the Lord seven days; on the first day there shall be a rest, and on the eighth day a rest.
“‘Ya mere, malite nʼụbọchị nke iri na ise nke ọnwa asaa, mgbe unu webatasịrị ihe ubi unu, meerenụ Onyenwe anyị mmemme ụbọchị asaa, ụbọchị nke mbụ, na ụbọchị nke asatọ ga-abụ ụbọchị izuike.
40 And on the first day you shall take goodly fruit of trees, and branches of palm trees, and thick boughs of trees, and willows, and branches of osiers from the brook, to rejoice before the Lord your God seven days in the year.
Nʼụbọchị nke mbụ, unu ga-ewere ụfọdụ mkpụrụ osisi dị mma nke si nʼosisi unu na-amị mkpụrụ, gbutekwa igu nkwụ, na alaka osisi nwere ahịhịa ndụ, na osisi pọpla, jiri ha mee mmemme obi ụtọ nʼihu Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu ụbọchị asaa.
41 [It is] a perpetual statute for your generations: in the seventh month you shall keep it.

42 Seven days you shall dwell in tabernacles: every native in Israel shall dwell in tents,
Nʼoge mmemme a, ụmụ Izrel niile ga-ebi nʼụlọ e ji alaka osisi na ahịhịa wuo ụbọchị asaa. Ụmụ afọ Izrel niile ga-ebi nʼụlọ dị otu a.

44 And Moses recounted the feasts of the Lord to the children of Israel.
Mosis gwara ụmụ Izrel ihe gbasara mmemme niile a kara aka nye Onyenwe anyị.
