Revhitiko 17

¹Zvino Jehovha wakataura naMozisi akati,And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

²Taura naAroni navanakomana vake navana vaIsiraeri vose, uti kwavari, `Ndiro shoko rakarairwa naJehovha:Speak unto Aaron, and unto his sons, and unto all the children of Israel, and say unto them; This is the thing which the LORD hath commanded, saying,

³Munhu upi noupi kuna veimba yaIsiraeri unouraya nzombe, kana gwayana, kana mbudzi, mukati memisasa, kana unozviuraya kunze kwemisasa,What man soever there be of the house of Israel, that killeth an ox, or lamb, or goat, in the camp, or that killeth it out of the camp,

⁴asina kuzviisa pamukova wetende rokusangana, kuzviisa pamberi petabhenakeri yaJehovha kuti chive chipo kuna Jehovha, munhu uyu anofanira kubviswa pakati porudzi rwake;And bringeth it not unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, to offer an offering unto the LORD before the tabernacle of the LORD; blood shall be imputed unto that man; he hath shed blood; and that man shall be cut off from among his people:

⁵kuti vana vaIsiraeri vauye nezvibayiro zvavo zvavanobayira kusango, vauye nazvo kuna Jehovha kumukova wetende rokusangana kumupirisiti, kuti vazvibayire Jehovha, zvive zvibayiro zvezvipiriso zvokuyananisira.'To the end that the children of Israel may bring their sacrifices, which they offer in the open field, even that they may bring them unto the LORD, unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, unto the priest, and offer them for peace offerings unto the LORD.

⁶Zvino mupirisiti ngaasase ropa razvo paaritari yaJehovha, pamukova wetende rokusangana; apisewo mafuta, kuti zvinhuwire zvakanaka pamberi paJehovha.And the priest shall sprinkle the blood upon the altar of the LORD at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and burn the fat for a sweet savour unto the LORD.

⁷Havafaniri kuzobayira nhongo zvibayiro zvavo, idzo dzavaitevera pakupata kwavo. Uyo unofanira kuva murayiro usingaperi kwavari kusvikira kumarudzi avo ose.And they shall no more offer their sacrifices unto devils, after whom they have gone a whoring. This shall be a statute for ever unto them throughout their generations.

⁸Iwe unofanira kuti kwavari, `Munhu upi noupi waveimba yaIsiraeri, kana wavatorwa vagere pakati pavo, unopisira chipiriso chinopiswa kana chimwe chibayiro,And thou shalt say unto them, Whatsoever man there be of the house of Israel, or of the strangers which sojourn among you, that offereth a burnt offering of sacrifice,

⁹asingauyi nacho kumukova wetende rokusangana, kuti achibayire Jehovha, munhu uyo anofanira kubviswa pakati porudzi rwake.'And bringeth it not unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, to offer it unto the LORD; even that man shall be cut off from among his people.

¹⁰Munhu upi noupi waveimba yaIsiraeri, kana wavatorwa vagere pakati pavo, unodya ropa ripi neripi, ndichatonga munhu uyo unodya ropa, ndimubvise pakati porudzi rwake.And whatsoever man there be of the house of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn among you, that eateth any manner of blood; I will even set my face against that soul that eateth blood, and will cut him off from among his people.

¹¹Nokuti upenyu hwenyama huri muropa; ndakakupai iro paaritari, kuti riyananisire mweya yenyu; nokuti iropa rinoyananisira nokuda kwoupenyu hurimo.For the life of the flesh is in the blood: and I have given it to you upon the altar to make an atonement for your souls: for it is the blood that maketh an atonement for the soul.

¹²Naizvozvo ndakati kuvana vaIsiraeri, `Kurege kuva nomumwe wenyu uchadya ropa, kana mutorwa upi noupi ugere pakati penyu, ngaarege kudya ropa.'Therefore I said unto the children of Israel, No soul of you shall eat blood, neither shall any stranger that sojourneth among you eat blood.

¹³Munhu upi noupi kuvana vaIsiraeri, kana kuvatorwa vagere pakati pavo, wakabata pakuvhima kwake mhuka ipi neipi kana shiri inodyiwa, anofanira kudurura ropa rayo, ndokurifukidza neguruva.And whatsoever man there be of the children of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn among you, which hunteth and catcheth any beast or fowl that may be eaten; he shall even pour out the blood thereof, and cover it with dust.

¹⁴Nokuti kana huri upenyu hwenyama yose, ropa razvo ndihwo upenyu hwazvo, naizvozvo ndakati kuvana vaIsiraeri, `Regai kudya ropa razvo; ani naani unoridya anofanira kubviswa:For it is the life of all flesh; the blood of it is for the life thereof: therefore I said unto the children of Israel, Ye shall eat the blood of no manner of flesh: for the life of all flesh is the blood thereof: whosoever eateth it shall be cut off.

¹⁵Munhu upi noupi unodya chinhu chakangofa choga, kana chakaurawa nezvikara, kana ari munhu wakaberekerwa pakati penyu, kana ari mutorwa, anofanira kusuka nguvo dzake, nokuzvishambidza nemvura, ave usina kunaka kusvikira madeko; ipapo uchazova wakanaka.And every soul that eateth that which died of itself, or that which was torn with beasts, whether it be one of your own country, or a stranger, he shall both wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the even: then shall he be clean.

¹⁶Asi kana asingadzisuki, kana kushambidza muviri wake, uchafanira' kuva nemhosva yake.But if he wash them not, nor bathe his flesh; then he shall bear his iniquity.
