Mbadiko 8:1-26
8 Yehowa balunguile Moyise’shi:
2 “Lungula Alona’shi, ‘Nsaa y’otembesha bimunyi, abitungu biabia bimunyi musambobidi bimunyikie mbalo i kumpala kua kitudilo kia bimunyi.’”
3 Biabia Alona nkukita bino: Aye nkutembesha biabia bimunyi bua’shi bimunyikie mbalo i kumpala kua kitudilo kia bimunyi, nka bibaadi Yehowa mutumine Moyise eyi.
4 Kitudilo kia bimunyi kibaadi kikitshibue bino: kibaadi kikitshibue na ôlo mufushue; kubanga ku mukoolo wakio mpa na ku bilongo biakio, kibaadi kikitshibue na ôlo mufushue. Kitudilo kia bimunyi kibaadi kikitshibue muyile kimonua kibaadi Yehowa muleshe Moyise.
5 Yehowa nkulungula dingi Moyise’shi:
6 “Ata bena Levi munkatshi mua bena Isalele, na w’ebatooshe.
7 Bino nyi abitungu’shi w’ebatooshe: W’ebamiamine mema a kutoosha nao muluisho, na abitungu bakuule mbidi yabo yoso na kabuembe, batumpe bilamba biabo na b’etooshe.
8 Akupu baate ngombe mulume muana na mulambu waye wa ntete wa bukula buibuwa busangie na muimu, na wate ungi ngombe mulume muana bua mulambu wa muluisho.
9 Na abitungu wende na bena Levi kumpala kua kashibo k’epema ka kufumankena na obungie kakongie koso ka bena Isalele.
10 P’otuala bena Levi kumpala kua Yehowa, abitungu bena Isalele batentekie bena Levi maasa aabo.
11 Abitungu Alona alambule* bena Levi kumpala kua Yehowa bu mulambu wa kupuka aufiki kui bena Isalele, na abitungu bakumbashe mufubo wa Yehowa.
12 “Akupu bena Levi batentekie maasa aabo pa mitue ya ngombe ilume na balambule Yehowa umune bu mulambu wa muluisho na ungi bu mulambu wa kushiika kaalo bua’shi bena Levi bafuidibue lusa.
13 Na wemikie bena Levi kumpala kua Alona na bana baye balume na w’ebalambule* bu mulambu wa kupuka kui Yehowa.
14 Abitungu wabuule bena Levi kui bena Isalele, na bena Levi abekala bande.
15 Akupu, bena Levi abatuele bua kufuba mu kashibo k’epema ka kufumankena. Bino nyi abitungu’shi w’ebatooshe na w’ebalambule* bu mulambu wa kupuka.
16 Muanda mbapebue, bapebue kuandi, baatshibue munkatshi mua bena Isalele. Nebaata bu bande pa mbalo ya bana mbedi* boso ba bena Isalele.
17 Muanda muana mbedi oso a munkatshi mua bena Isalele ngande, biabikala muntu sunga nyema. Naadi muibekashe ba kishila buande muifuku dinaadi muipee bana mbedi boso muiumbo dia Ejipitu.
18 Nakaata bena Levi pa mbalo ya bana mbedi boso ba munkatshi mua bena Isalele.
19 Nakapa bena Levi bu bapebue kui Alona na bana baye balume munkatshi mua bena Isalele, bua’shi bakitshine bena Isalele mufubo ku kashibo k’epema ka kufumankena na bakite bia’shi bena Isalele bafuidibue lusa, bua’shi kipupa su nkimune takifikanga munkatshi mua bena Isalele, muanda muilo wa Isalele nguifubuile pepi na mbalo ya kishila.”
20 Moyise na Alona na kakongie koso ka bena Isalele babaadi bakite bino pabitale bena Levi. Bino nyi bibaadi bena Isalele bakite pabitale bena Levi muyile bioso bibaadi Yehowa mutumine Moyise eyi.
21 Biabia bena Levi abaadi betooshe na batumpa bilamba biabo, kunyima Alona baadi muibalambule bu mulambu wa kupuka kumpala kua Yehowa. Akupu Alona nkukita bia’shi bafuidibue lusa bua kuibatoosha.
22 Kunyima bena Levi babaadi batuele bua kukumbasha mufubo wabo ku kashibo k’epema ka kufumankena kumpala kua Alona na bana baye balume. Nka bibaadi Yehowa mutumine Moyise eyi pabitale bena Levi, biabia nyi bibaabadi bakite pa bibatale.
23 Biabia Yehowa nkulungula Moyise’shi:
24 “Bino mbitale bena Levi: Muana mulume e na bipua kubanga pa 25 na kunundu, atuele mu kisaka kia baba abakitshi mufubo mu kashibo k’epema ka kufumankena.
25 Anka kunyima kuaye kukita bipua 50, akakatuka mu kisaka kia baba bakuete kufuba na t’afubu dingi.
26 Mmulombene kukuasha bakuabo bakuete kufuba ku kashibo k’epema ka kufumankena, anka aye t’abitungu afube kuanka nya. Bino nyi abitungu’shi okite pabitale bena Levi na mifubo yabo.”
