Omukolo ogw’Okutangiririra

16 (A)Awo Mukama n’ayogera ne Musa, abaana ba Alooni ababiri bwe baali bamaze okufa olwokubanga baasemberera Mukama. (B)Mukama n’agamba Musa nti, “Tegeeza muganda wo Alooni alemenga okujja buli w’anaayagaliranga, mu kifo Awatukuvu ekiri munda w’eggigi, okutunuulira entebe ey’okusaasira eri ku Ssanduuko ey’Endagaano; bw’alikikola talirema kufa; kubanga nzijanga kulabikira mu kire nga kiri waggulu w’entebe ey’okusaasira. (C)Naye Alooni bw’anaabanga ajja mu kifo Awatukuvu anaaleetanga ennyana ennume olw’ekiweebwayo olw’ekibi, n’endiga ennume olw’ekiweebwayo ekyokebwa. (D)Anaayambalanga ekkooti entukuvu eya bafuta, ne munda ku mubiri gwe anaasookangako empale eya bafuta, nga yeesibye olukoba olwa bafuta, ne ku mutwe ng’asibyeko ekitambaala ekya bafuta. Ebyambalo ebyo bitukuvu, noolwekyo kimusaaniranga okusooka okunaaba omubiri gwe mu mazzi nga tannabyambala. (E)Era anaggyanga mu baana ba Isirayiri embuzi ennume bbiri nga za kiweebwayo olw’ekibi, n’endiga emu nga ya kiweebwayo ekyokebwa.

(F)“Alooni anaawangayo ennyana ennume nga ya kiweebwayo kye olw’ekibi alyoke yeetangiririre awamu n’ab’omu maka ge. Era anaddiranga embuzi ebbiri n’azireeta eri Mukama mu mulyango gw’Eweema ya Mukama ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu. Embuzi ebbiri Alooni anaazikubirangako obululu; akalulu akamu nga ka kugwa ku mbuzi ya Mukama, n’akalala nga ka kugwa ku mbuzi enessibwangako omusango. Alooni anaddiranga embuzi akalulu ka Mukama kwe kanaagwanga, n’agiwaayo okubeera ekiweebwayo olw’okwonoona. 10 (G)Naye embuzi eneegwangako akalulu ak’okugissibyako omusango, eneeweebwangayo eri Mukama nga nnamu, n’eteebwa n’eddukira mu ddungu mu kifo Azazeri ng’esibiddwako omusango olw’okutangirira.

Ekiweebwayo olw’Ekibi ekya Kabona n’Abantu

11 (H)“Alooni anaawangayo ennyana eyo ennume nga ya kiweebwayo kye olw’ekibi, alyoke yeetangiririre awamu n’ab’omu maka ge; ennyana eyo ennume anaagittanga nga kye kiweebwayo kye olw’ekibi. 12 (I)Anaddiranga ekyoterezo ky’obubaane nga kijjudde amanda g’omuliro nga gavudde ku kyoto eri Mukama, n’embatu bbiri ez’obubaane obw’akaloosa obumerunguddwa obulungi, n’abireeta munda w’eggigi. 13 (J)Anassanga obubaane ku muliro eri Mukama, n’omukka ogunaavanga mu bubaane gunaabikkanga entebe ey’okusaasira eri kungulu w’Essanduuko ey’Endagaano, alyoke aleme okufa. 14 (K)Anaddiranga ku musaayi ogw’ennyana eyo ennume n’agumansira n’olunwe lwe ku ludda olw’ebuvanjuba olw’entebe ey’okusaasira; era omusaayi ogumu anaagumansiranga n’olunwe lwe emirundi musanvu mu maaso g’entebe ey’okusaasira.

15 (L)“Era anattanga embuzi ey’ekiweebwayo ky’abantu olw’ekibi, n’atwala omusaayi gwayo munda w’eggigi n’agukola nga bwe yakola omusaayi gw’ennyana ennume; anaagumansiranga ku ntebe ey’okusaasira ne mu maaso gaayo. 16 (M)Mu ngeri eyo anaatangiririranga Ekifo eky’Awatukuvu Ennyo olw’obutali bulongoofu n’obujeemu eby’abaana ba Isirayiri, n’olw’ebyonoono byabwe ebirala byonna nga bwe byali. Era anaakolanga bw’atyo ne ku Weema ya Mukama ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu eri mu bo wakati mu butali bulongoofu bwabwe. 17 Mu Weema ya Mukama ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu temuubengamu muntu n’omu Alooni bw’anaayingirangamu okutangiririra Ekifo eky’Awatukuvu Ennyo, okutuusa lw’anaafulumanga ng’amaze okwetangiririra awamu n’ab’omu maka ge, n’ekibiina kyonna ekya Isirayiri. 18 (N)Era anaafulumanga n’ajja ku kyoto ekiri awali Mukama n’akitangiririra. Anaddiranga ku musaayi gw’ennyana eya seddume ne ku musaayi gw’embuzi n’agusiiga ku mayembe gonna ag’ekyoto. 19 (O)Ku musaayi ogwo anaamansirangako ku kyoto n’olunwe lwe emirundi musanvu okukifuula ekirongoofu n’okukitukuza okukiggya mu butali bulongoofu obw’abaana ba Isirayiri.

Embuzi Esibibwako Omusango

20 “Awo Alooni bw’anaamalanga okutangiririra Ekifo eky’Awatukuvu Ennyo, n’Eweema ya Mukama ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu, n’ekyoto, anaaleetanga embuzi ennamu. 21 (P)Anaateekanga emikono gye gyombi ku mutwe gw’embuzi eyo ennamu n’agikwatako, n’agyenenyerezaako ebyonoono by’abaana ba Isirayiri, n’obujeemu bwabwe, n’ebibi byabwe byonna, ng’abitadde ku mutwe gw’embuzi eyo. Embuzi anaagisindikanga mu ddungu ng’etwalibwa omusajja anaalondebwanga okukola omulimu ogwo. 22 (Q)Embuzi eyo eneetikkanga ebyonoono by’abaana ba Isirayiri byonna n’ebitwala mu kifo eteri bantu, eyo omusajja oyo gy’anaagiteeranga n’eraga mu ddungu.

23 (R)“Alooni anaayingiranga mu Weema ya Mukama ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu, ne yeeyambulamu ebyambalo ebya bafuta bye yayambadde nga tannayingira mu Kifo eky’Awatukuvu Ennyo, era naabirekanga awo. 24 (S)Anaanaabiranga omubiri gwe mu mazzi nga gali mu kifo ekitukuvu, n’alyoka ayambala ebyambalo bye ebya bulijjo. Anaafulumanga n’awaayo ekiweebwayo kye ekyokebwa ku lulwe, n’ekiweebwayo ekyokebwa olw’abantu bonna, alyoke yeetangiririre era n’abantu abatangiririre. 25 Era n’amasavu ag’ekiweebwayo olw’ekibi anaagookeranga ku kyoto.

26 (T)“Omusajja anaatanga embuzi esibiddwako omusango, eraze mu Azazeri mu ddungu, kinaamugwaniranga okwoza engoye ze n’okunaaba omubiri gwe n’amazzi; oluvannyuma anaakomangawo mu lusiisira. 27 (U)Ennyana ennume n’embuzi ennume ez’okuwaayo olw’ebiweebwayo olw’ekibi, era omwava omusaayi ogwaleetebwa mu Kifo eky’Awatukuvu Ennyo olw’okutangiririra, ziteekwa okufulumizibwa ebweru w’olusiisira, amaliba gaazo n’ennyama yaazo eriibwa n’eyo eteriibwa, zonna binaayokebwanga. 28 Oyo anaazokyanga anaateekwanga okwoza engoye ze, n’okunaaba omubiri gwe mu mazzi; oluvannyuma anaakomangawo mu lusiisira.

Olunaku olw’Okutangiririra

29 (V)“Etteeka lino munaalikwatanga emirembe gyonna: Ku lunaku olw’ekkumi mu mwezi ogw’omusanvu muneelesanga eby’amasanyu byonna n’emirimu gyammwe gyonna, temuukolerengako mulimu gwonna mmwe bannannyini nsi era n’abagwira ababeera mu mmwe, 30 (W)kubanga ku lunaku olwo mulitangiririrwa ne mufuulibwa abalongoofu. Bwe mutyo munaabeeranga muvudde mu byonoono byammwe ne mufuulibwa balongoofu mu maaso ga Mukama Katonda. 31 (X)Lunaabanga ssabbiiti nga lwa kuwummula; era kibasaanira okwefiisanga bye mwandiyagadde; etteeka eryo linaabanga lya mirembe gyonna. 32 (Y)Kabona eyafukibwako amafuta ag’omuzeeyituuni era ng’ayawulibbwa n’asikira kitaawe, y’anaatangiririranga. Anaayambalanga ebyambalo ebya linena ebitukuvu, 33 (Z)n’atangiririra Ekifo Awatukuvu Ennyo, n’atangiririra n’Eweema ya Mukama ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu, n’atangiririra n’ekyoto, ne bakabona awamu n’abantu bonna mu kibiina kyonna.

34 (AA)“Etteeka eryo linaababeereranga lya mirembe gyonna, ng’okutangiririra okwo kukolebwa omulundi gumu buli mwaka olw’ebyonoono byonna eby’abaana ba Isirayiri.”

Awo byonna ne bikolebwa nga Mukama Katonda bwe yalagira Musa.

The Day of Atonement(A)

16 The Lord spoke to Moses after the death of the two sons of Aaron who died when they approached the Lord.(B) The Lord said to Moses: “Tell your brother Aaron that he is not to come whenever he chooses(C) into the Most Holy Place(D) behind the curtain(E) in front of the atonement cover(F) on the ark, or else he will die. For I will appear(G) in the cloud(H) over the atonement cover.

“This is how Aaron is to enter the Most Holy Place:(I) He must first bring a young bull(J) for a sin offering[a] and a ram for a burnt offering.(K) He is to put on the sacred linen tunic,(L) with linen undergarments next to his body; he is to tie the linen sash around him and put on the linen turban.(M) These are sacred garments;(N) so he must bathe himself with water(O) before he puts them on.(P) From the Israelite community(Q) he is to take two male goats(R) for a sin offering and a ram for a burnt offering.

“Aaron is to offer the bull for his own sin offering to make atonement for himself and his household.(S) Then he is to take the two goats and present them before the Lord at the entrance to the tent of meeting. He is to cast lots(T) for the two goats—one lot for the Lord and the other for the scapegoat.[b](U) Aaron shall bring the goat whose lot falls to the Lord and sacrifice it for a sin offering. 10 But the goat chosen by lot as the scapegoat shall be presented alive before the Lord to be used for making atonement(V) by sending it into the wilderness as a scapegoat.

11 “Aaron shall bring the bull for his own sin offering to make atonement for himself and his household,(W) and he is to slaughter the bull for his own sin offering. 12 He is to take a censer full of burning coals(X) from the altar before the Lord and two handfuls of finely ground fragrant incense(Y) and take them behind the curtain. 13 He is to put the incense on the fire before the Lord, and the smoke of the incense will conceal the atonement cover(Z) above the tablets of the covenant law, so that he will not die.(AA) 14 He is to take some of the bull’s blood(AB) and with his finger sprinkle it on the front of the atonement cover; then he shall sprinkle some of it with his finger seven times before the atonement cover.(AC)

15 “He shall then slaughter the goat for the sin offering for the people(AD) and take its blood behind the curtain(AE) and do with it as he did with the bull’s blood: He shall sprinkle(AF) it on the atonement cover and in front of it. 16 In this way he will make atonement(AG) for the Most Holy Place(AH) because of the uncleanness and rebellion of the Israelites, whatever their sins have been. He is to do the same for the tent of meeting,(AI) which is among them in the midst of their uncleanness. 17 No one is to be in the tent of meeting from the time Aaron goes in to make atonement in the Most Holy Place until he comes out, having made atonement for himself, his household and the whole community of Israel.

18 “Then he shall come out to the altar(AJ) that is before the Lord and make atonement for it. He shall take some of the bull’s blood and some of the goat’s blood and put it on all the horns of the altar.(AK) 19 He shall sprinkle some of the blood on it with his finger seven times to cleanse it and to consecrate it from the uncleanness of the Israelites.(AL)

20 “When Aaron has finished making atonement for the Most Holy Place, the tent of meeting and the altar, he shall bring forward the live goat.(AM) 21 He is to lay both hands on the head of the live goat(AN) and confess(AO) over it all the wickedness and rebellion of the Israelites—all their sins—and put them on the goat’s head. He shall send the goat away into the wilderness in the care of someone appointed for the task. 22 The goat will carry on itself all their sins(AP) to a remote place; and the man shall release it in the wilderness.

23 “Then Aaron is to go into the tent of meeting and take off the linen garments(AQ) he put on before he entered the Most Holy Place, and he is to leave them there.(AR) 24 He shall bathe himself with water in the sanctuary area(AS) and put on his regular garments.(AT) Then he shall come out and sacrifice the burnt offering for himself and the burnt offering for the people,(AU) to make atonement for himself and for the people.(AV) 25 He shall also burn the fat of the sin offering on the altar.

26 “The man who releases the goat as a scapegoat(AW) must wash his clothes(AX) and bathe himself with water;(AY) afterward he may come into the camp. 27 The bull and the goat for the sin offerings, whose blood was brought into the Most Holy Place to make atonement, must be taken outside the camp;(AZ) their hides, flesh and intestines are to be burned up. 28 The man who burns them must wash his clothes and bathe himself with water; afterward he may come into the camp.(BA)

29 “This is to be a lasting ordinance(BB) for you: On the tenth day of the seventh month(BC) you must deny yourselves[c](BD) and not do any work(BE)—whether native-born(BF) or a foreigner residing among you— 30 because on this day atonement will be made(BG) for you, to cleanse you. Then, before the Lord, you will be clean from all your sins.(BH) 31 It is a day of sabbath rest, and you must deny yourselves;(BI) it is a lasting ordinance.(BJ) 32 The priest who is anointed and ordained(BK) to succeed his father as high priest is to make atonement. He is to put on the sacred linen garments(BL) 33 and make atonement for the Most Holy Place, for the tent of meeting and the altar, and for the priests and all the members of the community.(BM)

34 “This is to be a lasting ordinance(BN) for you: Atonement is to be made once a year(BO) for all the sins of the Israelites.”

And it was done, as the Lord commanded Moses.
