10 “‘Munthu adakhonda kutawiriswa nee asafunika kudya pinthu pyakucena.+ Pontho, mulendo wa dziko inango adafikira panyumba ya nyantsembe, peno nyabasa wace nee asafunika kudya pinthu pyakucena. 11 Mbwenye khala nyantsembe ali na bitcu adagula iye na kobiri yace, bitcu unoyu anakwanisa kudya pinthu pyakucena.

14 “‘Munthu angadodomeka mbadya pinthu pyakucena, iye asafunika abwerese ntsembe inango, mbathimiza khundu yacixanu ya ntsembe ineyi, mbapipereka kuna nyantsembe.+ 15 Natenepa, anyantsembe nee asafunika kupswipisa pinthu pyakucena pinapereka Aizraeli kuna Yahova,+ 16 mbacitisa kuti mbumba itcunyuswe thangwi yakukhala na mulando wa kudya pinthu pyakucena; ine ndine Yahova, ule anaacenesa.’”
17 Yahova apitiriza kulonga na Mose: 18 “Panga Aroni na anace pabodzi na Aizraeli onsene kuti: ‘Munthu wa dzindza ya Izraeli peno munthu wakudza anakhala mu dziko ya Izraeli angapereka kuna Yahova ntsembe yakupiswa+ toera kucita pidapikira iye* peno angapereka muoni,+ 19 iye asafunika apereke cifuyo cimuna+ cakusowa cilema: Ngʼombe, mwanabira, peno mbuzi, toera Mulungu akomerwe na iye. 20 Lekani kupereka pinyama pyakuti piri na cilema,+ thangwi nee pinakuphedzani toera Mulungu akomerwe na imwe.
21 “‘Munthu angapereka kuna Yahova ntsembe toera kupereka takhuta+ toera kucita pidapikira iye* peno kupereka muoni, isafunika ikhale ya cinyama cakusowa cilema: Ngʼombe, bira peno mbuzi, toera Mulungu akomerwe na iye. Cinyama ceneci nee cisafunika kukhala na cilema. 22 Lekani kupereka ninga ntsembe cinyama cakuti nkhabe kuona, cidakhumuka mwendo, ciri na cironda, ciri na mberewere, cakuti ciri na mphere peno cikulukuta. Lekani kupereka pinyama ninga pyenepi kuna Yahova, nee kupipereka pa guwa ninga ntsembe kuna Yahova. 23 Khala ngʼombe peno bira iri na mwendo ubodzi wakulapha kakamwe peno wakubvira maningi, unakwanisa kuipereka ninga muoni, mbwenye ungaipereka toera kucita pidapikira iwe, Mulungu nee anaitawira. 24 Lekani kupereka kuna Yahova cinyama cakuti macende ace alamala, aswiwa, akhwedzulwa peno agwandwa, pontho lekani kupereka pinyama pyenepi ninga ntsembe mu dziko yanu. 25 Pontho munthu wakudza angabweresa pinyama ninga pyenepi, lekani kupipereka ninga nkate wa Mulungu wanu, thangwi pinyama pyenepi ndi pyakulamala, pontho piri na cilema. Natenepa Mulungu nee anadzapitawira.’”
26 Yahova alonga pontho na Mose: 27 “Ngʼombe, bira peno mbuzi ingabala, mwanace anapitiriza kukhala na mai wace mu ntsiku zinomwe,+ mbwenye kutomera pa ntsiku yacisere, munakwanisa kumpereka ninga ntsembe yakutawirika, ninga ntsembe yakupiswa pa moto inaperekwa kuna Yahova. 28 Ngʼombe peno bira, lekani kuipha pa ntsiku ibodzi ene+ na mwanace.
29 “Mungapereka kuna Yahova+ ntsembe toera kupereka takhuta, musafunika kuipereka munjira yakutawirika toera iye akomerwe na imwe. 30 Isafunika kudyiwa pa ntsiku ibodzi ene. Nee isafunika kusala mpaka mangwana mwace.+ Ine ndine Yahova.
