¹[Ny nitondran'i Nadaba sy Abiho afo tsy izy, sy ny nataon'Andriamanitra noho izany] Ary Nadaba sy Abiho, zanak'i Arona, samy naka ny fitondran'afony avy ka nanisy afo teo anatiny, ary nanisy ditin-kazo manitra teo, dia nanatitra afo tsy izy teo anatrehan'i Jehovah, izay tsy nandidiany azy.

¹And the sons of Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, take each his censer, and put in them fire, and put on it perfume, and bring near before Jehovah strange fire, which He hath not commanded them;

²Dia nisy afo nivoaka avy teo anatrehan'i Jehovah ka nahafaty azy roa lahy, dia maty teo anatrehan'i Jehovah izy.

²and fire goeth out from before Jehovah, and consumeth them, and they die before Jehovah.

³Dia hoy Mosesy tamin'i Arona: Izany dia ilay nolazain'i Jehovah hoe: Amin'izay akaiky Ahy no hisehoako ho masina, ary eo anatrehan'ny olona rehetra no hampisehoako ny voninahitro. Dia sina Arona.

³And Moses saith unto Aaron, `It [is] that which Jehovah hath spoken, saying, By those drawing near to Me I am sanctified, and in the face of all the people I am honoured;` and Aaron is silent.

⁴Ary Mosesy dia nampaka an'i Misaela sy Elzafana, zanak'i Oziela, rahalahin-drain'i Arona, ka nanao taminy hoe: Manatòna, ka ento ny rahalahinareo hiala eo anoloan'ny fitoerana masina ho eny ivelan'ny toby.

⁴And Moses calleth unto Mishael and unto Elzaphan, sons of Uzziel, uncle of Aaron, and saith unto them, `Come near, bear your brethren from the front of the sanctuary unto the outside of the camp;`

⁵Dia nanatona izy roa lahy ka nitondra azy, mbola miakanjo ny akanjo lavany ihany, ho eny ivelan'ny toby, araka izay efa nolazain'i Mosesy.

⁵and they come near, and bear them in their coats unto the outside of the camp, as Moses hath spoken.

⁶Ary hoy Mosesy tamin'i Arona ary tamin'i Eleazara sy Itamara, zananilahy: Aza mirakaraka volo, na mandriatra ny akanjonareo, fandrao mba maty koa ianareo, sady hisy fahatezerana hahatratra ny olona rehetra; fa aoka ny rahalahinareo, dia ny taranak'Isiraely rehetra, no hitomany noho ny fahamaizana izay narehitr'i Jehovah.

⁶And Moses saith unto Aaron, and to Eleazar, and to Ithamar his sons, `Your heads ye do not uncover, and your garments ye do not rend, that ye die not, and on all the company He be wroth; as to your brethren, the whole house of Israel, they bewail the burning which Jehovah hath kindled;

⁷Ary aza miala eo anoloan'ny varavaran'ny trano-lay fihaonana, fandrao maty ianareo; fa efa mby aminareo ny diloilo fanosoran'i Jehovah. Dia nanao araka ny tenin'i Mosesy izy.

⁷and from the opening of the tent of meeting ye do not go out, lest ye die, for the anointing oil of Jehovah [is] upon you;` and they do according to the word of Moses.

⁸Ary Jehovah niteny tamin'i Arona ka nanao hoe:

⁸And Jehovah speaketh unto Aaron, saying,

⁹Aza misotro divay na toaka ianao, na ny zanakao, raha miditra ao amin'ny trano-lay fihaonana, mba tsy ho faty ianareo (ho lalàna mandrakizay amin'ny taranakareo hatramin'ny fara mandimby izany),

⁹`Wine and strong drink thou dost not drink, thou, and thy sons with thee, in your going in unto the tent of meeting, and ye die not — a statute age-during to your generations;

¹⁰ary mba hahaizanareo manavaka ny masina sy ny tsy masina, ary ny madio sy ny tsy madio,

¹⁰so as to make a separation between the holy and the common, and between the unclean and the pure;

¹¹ary mba hampianarinareo ny Zanak'Isiraely ny didy rehetra izay nasain'i Jehovah holazain'i Mosesy taminy.

¹¹and to teach the sons of Israel all the statutes which Jehovah hath spoken unto them by the hand of Moses.`

¹²Ary hoy Mosesy tamin'i Arona ary tamin'i Eleazara sy Itamara zananilahy sisa: Alao ny fanatitra hohanina izay sisa amin'ny fanatitra natao tamin'ny afo ho an'i Jehovah, ka hano eo anilan'ny alitara izany, nefa aza asiana masirasira; fa masina dia masina izany.

¹²And Moses speaketh unto Aaron, and unto Eleazar, and unto Ithamar his sons, who are left, `Take ye the present that is left from the fire-offerings of Jehovah, and eat it unleavened near the altar, for it [is] most holy,

¹³Ary hano eo amin'izay fitoerana masina izany, fa anjaranao sy ny zanakao avy amin'ny fanatitra atao amin'ny afo ho an'i Jehovah izany; fa izany no nandidiany ahy.

¹³and ye have eaten it in the holy place, for it [is] thy portion, and the portion of thy sons, from the fire-offerings of Jehovah; for so I have been commanded.

¹⁴Ary ny tratrany ahevaheva sy ny sorony asandratra hohaninareo eo amin'izay fitoerana madio, dia ianao mbamin'ny zanakao-lahy sy ny zanakao-vavy koa; fa nomena ho anjaranao sy ny zanakao ireo avy amin'ny fanati-pihavanana aterin'ny Zanak'Isiraely.

¹⁴`And the breast of the wave-offering, and the leg of the heave-offering, ye do eat in a clean place, thou, and thy sons, and thy daughters with thee; for thy portion and the portion of thy sons they have been given, out of the sacrifices of peace-offerings of the sons of Israel;

¹⁵Ny sorony asandratra sy ny tratrany ahevaheva mbamin'ny saborany izay fanatitra atao amin'ny afo dia ho entiny mba hahevaheva ho fanatitra ahevaheva eo anatrehan'i Jehovah; dia ho anao sy ny zanakao koa ireo, ho anjaranareo mandrakizay, araka izay nandidian'i Jehovah.

¹⁵the leg of the heave-offering, and breast of the wave-offering, besides fire-offerings of the fat, they do bring in to wave a wave-offering before Jehovah, and it hath been to thee, and to thy sons with thee, by a statute age-during, as Jehovah hath commanded.`

¹⁶Ary Mosesy nitady fatratra ny osilahy izay natao fanatitra noho ny ota, kanjo efa voadotra izany; dia tezitra tamin'ny zanak'i Arona sisa izy, dia tamin'i Eleazara sy Itamara, ka hoy izy:

¹⁶And the goat of the sin-offering hath Moses diligently sought, and lo, it is burnt, and he is wroth against Eleazar, and against Ithamar, sons of Aaron, who are left, saying,

¹⁷Nahoana no tsy nohaninareo teo amin'ny fitoerana masina ny fanatitra noho ny ota? fa masina dia masina izany, ary efa nomeny anareo izy hitondranareo ny heloky ny fiangonana, hanaovana fanavotana ho azy eo anatrehan'i Jehovah.

¹⁷`Wherefore have ye not eaten the sin-offering in the holy place, for it [is] most holy — and it He hath given to you to take away the iniquity of the company, to make atonement for them before Jehovah?

¹⁸Indro, ny ràny tsy nampidirina tao anatin'ny fitoerana masina, koa tokony ho nihinana azy mihitsy teo amin'ny fitoerana masina ianareo, araka izay nandidiako.

¹⁸lo, its blood hath not been brought in unto the holy place within; eating ye do eat it in the holy place, as I have commanded.`

¹⁹Ary Arona niteny tamin'i Mosesy ka nanao hoe: Indro, androany no nanaterany ny fanatiny noho ny ota sy ny fanatitra dorany teo anatrehan'i Jehovah, ary efa azon'izao manjo izao aho; koa raha tàhiny nihinana ny fanatitra noho ny ota androany aho, moa ho tsara teo imason'i Jehovah va izany?Ary raha ren'i Mosesy izany, dia nankasitrahany.

¹⁹And Aaron speaketh unto Moses, `Lo, to-day they have brought near their sin-offering and their burnt-offering before Jehovah; and [things] like these meet me, yet I have eaten a sin-offering to-day; is it good in the eyes of Jehovah?`

²⁰Ary raha ren'i Mosesy izany, dia nankasitrahany.

²⁰And Moses hearkeneth, and it is good in his eyes.
