Laws about Sacrifice
1 The Lord gave Moses 2 the following regulations for the people of Israel to observe in the land that he was going to give them. 3 A bull, a ram, a sheep, or a goat may be presented to the Lord as a burnt offering or as a sacrifice in fulfillment of a vow or as a freewill offering or as an offering at your regular religious festivals; the odor of these food offerings is pleasing to the Lord. 4-5 Whoever presents a sheep or a goat as a burnt offering to the Lord is to bring with each animal 2 pounds of flour mixed with 2 pints of olive oil as a grain offering, together with 2 pints of wine. 6 When a ram is offered, 4 pounds of flour mixed with 3 pints of olive oil are to be presented as a grain offering, 7 together with 3 pints of wine. The odor of these sacrifices is pleasing to the Lord. 8 When a bull is offered to the Lord as a burnt offering or as a sacrifice in fulfillment of a vow or as a fellowship offering, 9 a grain offering of 6 pounds of flour mixed with 4 pints of olive oil is to be presented, 10 together with 4 pints of wine. The odor of this sacrifice is pleasing to the Lord.
11 That is what shall be offered with each bull, ram, sheep, or goat. 12 When more than one animal is offered, the accompanying offering is to be increased proportionately. 13 All native Israelites are to do this when they present a food offering, an odor pleasing to the Lord. 14 And if at any time foreigners living among you, whether on a temporary or a permanent basis, make a food offering, an odor that pleases the Lord, they are to observe the same regulations. 15 For all time to come, the same rules are binding on you and on the foreigners who live among you. You and they are alike in the Lord's sight; 16 the same laws and regulations apply to you and to them.
17 The Lord gave Moses 18 the following regulations for the people of Israel to observe in the land that he was going to give them. 19 When any food produced there is eaten, some of it is to be set aside as a special contribution to the Lord. 20 When you bake bread, the first loaf of the first bread made from the new grain is to be presented as a special contribution to the Lord. This is to be presented in the same way as the special contribution you make from the grain you thresh. 21 For all time to come, this special gift is to be given to the Lord from the bread you bake.
22 But suppose someone unintentionally fails to keep some of these regulations which the Lord has given Moses. 23 And suppose that in the future the community fails to do everything that the Lord commanded through Moses. 24 If the mistake was made because of the ignorance of the community, they are to offer a bull as a burnt offering, an odor that pleases the Lord, with the proper grain offering and wine offering. In addition, they are to offer a male goat as a sin offering. 25 The priest shall perform the ritual of purification for the community, and they will be forgiven, because the mistake was unintentional and they brought their sin offering as a food offering to the Lord. 26 The whole community of Israel and the foreigners living among them will be forgiven, because everyone was involved in the mistake.
27 If any of you sin unintentionally, you are to offer a one-year-old female goat as a sin offering. 28 At the altar the priest shall perform the ritual of purification to purify you from your sin, and you will be forgiven. 29 The same regulation applies to all who unintentionally commit a sin, whether they are native Israelites or resident foreigners.
30 But any who sin deliberately, whether they are natives or foreigners, are guilty of treating the Lord with contempt, and they shall be put to death, 31 because they have rejected what the Lord said and have deliberately broken one of his commands. They are responsible for their own death.
The Man Who Broke the Sabbath
32 Once, while the Israelites were still in the wilderness, a man was found gathering firewood on the Sabbath. 33 He was taken to Moses, Aaron, and the whole community, 34 and was put under guard, because it was not clear what should be done with him. 35 Then the Lord said to Moses, “The man must be put to death; the whole community is to stone him to death outside the camp.” 36 So the whole community took him outside the camp and stoned him to death, as the Lord had commanded.
Rules about Tassels
37 The Lord commanded Moses 38 to say to the people of Israel: “Make tassels on the corners of your garments and put a blue cord on each tassel. You are to do this for all time to come. 39 The tassels will serve as reminders, and each time you see them you will remember all my commands and obey them; then you will not turn away from me and follow your own wishes and desires. 40 The tassels will remind you to keep all my commands, and you will belong completely to me. 41 I am the Lord your God; I brought you out of Egypt to be your God. I am the Lord.”

Ezimba lyondjambo ndjika otali opalele Omuwa.
11 “Shika osho shoka tashi ningwa, ngele taku yambwa ongombe ondumentu, onzi ondumentu, onzi nenge oshikombo. 12 Uuna taku yambwa iimuna yi vule shimwe, pamwe noshimuna kehe naku yambwe ondjambo yasho yiikulya nomaviinu. 13 Omuisraeli kehe ne shi ninge, uuna ta yamba ondjambo yiikulya, ezimba lya nika nawa tali opalele Omuwa. 14 Pethimbo kehe omukwiilongo a kala mokati keni, kashi na nee mbudhi, okathimbo okafupi nenge ethimbo ele, ta yamba oondjambo dhiikulya, ezimba lya nika nawa tali opalele Omuwa, oku na okugwanitha omautho tuu ngoka. 15 Osho ngaaka omautho ngoka tage mu manga aluhe sigo aluhe one yene naakwiilongo mboka ya kala mokati keni. Ne nayo omu thike pamwe koshipala shOmuwa. 16 Oompango tuu ndhoka dhimwe nomautho tage mu pula, osho nayo wo.”
17 Omuwa okwa lombwele Moses a ti: 18 “Lombwela Aaisraeli u tye: Ngele tamu ka ya mevi ndyoka tandi li mu pe, 19 omu na okugandja omagano kOmuwa miikulya mbyoka tamu li. 20 Nge tamu teleke iikwiila, gandjeni oshikwiila shotango shiilya iipe omagano kOmuwa.

22 “Ngele otamu ningi epuko noitamu gwanitha oshipango shontumba Omuwa a lombwele Moses, 23 — ano okuza kesiku ndyoka Omuwa a lombwele Moses iipango ye sigo okomaluvalo tage ya ngele itamu gwanitha sha shomiipango — 24 ihe egongalo lya yono mokwaashiwo, nali yambe ongombe ondumentu yi ninge efikilondjambo, ezimba lya nika nawa tali opalele Omuwa, pamwe nondjambo yiikulya nomaviinu.

27 “Ngele omuntu gumwe oye a yono mokwaashiwo, na yambe oshikombo oshikiintu shomumvo gumwe shi ninge eyonondjambo. 28 Poshiyambelo omuyambi ota gwanitha eyelithoyapulo lyomuntu ngoka, nota kala a dhiminwa po. 29 Eutho ndika olimwe kukehe ngoka ta yono mokwaashiwo, na kale nee Omuisraeli nenge omukwiilongo a kala mokati kAaisraeli.
30 “Ihe omuntu ngoka ta yono owina, na kale nee omuvalelwamo nenge omukwiilongo, oku na ondjo yokuhinda Omuwa noku na okudhipagwa, 31 oshoka okwa dhini shoka Omuwa a popi nokwa yono owina iipango ye. Okwi ilongela eso.”
Omuyoni gwEsabati
32 Esiku limwe manga Aaisraeli ya li mombuga, okwa monika omulumentu ta tyaya iikuni mEsabati. 33 Okwa falwa kuMoses, Aaron negongalo alihe, 34 noye mu manga, oshoka inaa tseya nkene ye na oku mu ninga. 35 Omuwa okwa ti kuMoses: “Omulumentu ngoka oku na okudhipagwa; egongalo alihe nali mu dhipage nomamanya pondje yoontanda.” 36 Egongalo alihe olye mu fala pondje yoontanda e tali mu dhipaga nomamanya, ngaashi Omuwa a lombwele Moses.
Omautho goondjendjelela
37 Omuwa okwa lombwele Moses a ti: 38 “Lombwela Aaisraeli u tye: Itungileni oondjendjelela dhi endjelele koonkotso dhomizalo dheni ne mu tule ko ongodhi ombulau kondjendjelela kehe. Shika omu na oku shi ninga aluhe sigo aluhe. 39 Oondjendjelela ohadhi mu dhimbulutha iipango yandje shaa ethimbo tamu dhi tala, opo mu vulike kuyo; nena itamu pilamene ndje we nokulandula omahalo nuuhalu weni. 40 Oondjendjelela ohadhi mu dhimbulutha mu dhiginine iipango yandje notamu ningi ihe yandjelela. 41 Ongame Omuwa, Kalunga keni; onde mu tembudha muEgipiti ndi ninge Kalunga keni. Ongame Omuwa.”
