17 ¹Ndipo Atate wathu anayankhula ndi Mose, nati:

²“Uza Eleazara mwana wa Aroni wansembe kuti atenge zofukizira mu makala oyaka, naumwaze moto kutali—pakuti ndi zoyera. ³Zofukizira za anthu awa amene anachimwa nataya miyoyo yawo. Uzisule kuti zikhale mbale zophimbira guwa—popeza zinaperekedwa pamaso panga nakhala zoyera—monga chizindikiro kwa ana a Israeli.”

⁴Ndipo Eleazara wansembe anatenga zofukizira za mkuwa zimene anthu amene anatentha anapereka, nazisula kukhala chophimbira guwa. ⁵Chikumbutso kwa ana a Israeli kuti palibe mlendo—osati wa mbumba ya Aroni—angayandikire kufukiza lubani pamaso pa Atate wathu, kuti asakhale ngati Kora ndi gulu lake, monga momwe Atate wathu anawuzira Aroni kudzera mwa Mose.

⁶Mmawa mwake gulu lonse la ana a Israeli linang'ung'udzira Mose ndi Aroni, kuti: “Inu mwapha anthu a Atate wathu.” ⁷Pamene gulu linasonkhana kutsutsana ndi Mose ndi Aroni, iwo anatembenukira ku chihema cha msonkhano, ndipo mtambo unaphimba chihema, nawonekera ulemerero wa Atate wathu.

⁸Ndipo Mose ndi Aroni anafika patsogolo pa chihema cha msonkhano. ⁹Ndipo Atate wathu anayankhula ndi Mose, nati:

¹⁰“Chokani pakati pa gulu ili kuti ndiwawononge nthawi yomweyo.” Ndipo iwo anagwa pansi chafufumimba.

¹¹Mose anauza Aroni, kuti: “Tenga chofukizira, uyikepo moto wochokera pa guwa, nuwonjezere lubani, nuchifulumitse ku gulu kuti uwapepesere, pakuti mkwiyo wafuma pamaso pa Atate wathu; mliri wayamba.”

¹²Aroni anatenga monga Mose ananena, nathamangira pakati pa gulu—mliri unali utayamba kale pakati pa anthu—nafukiza lubani, nawapepesera anthu. ¹³Ndipo anayima pakati pa akufa ndi amoyo, ndipo mliri unaletsedwa. ^a a v13 Kuyima kwa Aroni pakati pa akufa ndi amoyo kuletsa mliri kunaonetseratu Yesu, nkhoswe mmodzi yekha amene ayima pakati pa chiweruzo cha Atate wathu ndi anthu ake, nachita chiombolo ndi moyo wake womwe. ¹⁴Amene anafa ndi mliri analipo 14,700, osawerengera amene anafa chifukwa cha Kora. ¹⁵Aroni anabwerera kwa Mose pa khomo la chihema cha msonkhano, pakuti mliri unaletsedwa. ¹⁶Ndipo Atate wathu anayankhula ndi Mose, nati:

¹⁷“Yankhula ndi ana a Israeli, nutenge kwa iwo ndodo imodzi pa banja lililonse la makolo—ndodo khumi ndi ziwiri zochokera kwa atsogoleri awo onse monga mwa mabanja a makolo awo. Lemba dzina la munthu aliyense pa ndodo yake. ¹⁸Lemba dzina la Aroni pa ndodo ya Levi, pakuti padzakhala ndodo imodzi pa mutu wa banja lililonse la makolo. ¹⁹Uziyike mu chihema cha msonkhano patsogolo pa umboni, pamene ndimakumana nawe. ^b b v19 Umboni ukutanthauza mapale amiyala a Chilamulo osungidwa mkati mwa likasa, mu chihema chopatulika. ²⁰Ndodo ya munthu amene ndidzamsankha idzaphuka, motero ndidzaletsa pamaso panga kung'ung'udza kwa ana a Israeli amene akung'ung'udzira iwe.”

²¹Mose anayankhula ndi ana a Israeli, ndipo mtsogoleri aliyense anamupatsa ndodo—imodzi pa mtsogoleri aliyense monga mwa mabanja a makolo awo, ndodo khumi ndi ziwiri—ndodo ya Aroni ili pakati pawo. ²²Ndipo Mose anayika ndodozo pamaso pa Atate wathu mu chihema cha umboni. ²³Mmawa mwake Mose analowa mu chihema cha umboni, napeza kuti ndodo ya Aroni, ya nyumba ya Levi, inali itaphuka—inatungira mphukira, inachita maluwa, nabala alimondi akupsa. ^c c v23 Ahebri 9:4 akumbukira ndodo ya Aroni yophuka yosungidwa mu likasa. Moyo wophuka kuchokera mu nkhuni zakufa unatsimikizira wansembe amene Atate wathu anamsankha, ndipo ukuloza patsogolo kwa Yesu, amene Atate wathu anatsimikizira unsembe wake pomuukitsa kwa akufa. ²⁴Mose anatulutsa ndodo zonse pamaso pa Atate wathu kupita kwa ana onse a Israeli; iwo anaona, ndipo munthu aliyense anatenga ndodo yake.

²⁵Ndipo Atate wathu anauza Mose, kuti: “Bwezera ndodo ya Aroni patsogolo pa umboni, isungidwe ngati chizindikiro kwa anthu owukira, kuti kung'ung'udza kwawo kutsutsana nane kuthe, kuti asafe.”

²⁶Ndipo Mose anachita motero; monga momwe Atate wathu anamlamulira, momwemonso anachita. ²⁷Ana a Israeli anati kwa Mose: “Taonani, ife tikufa, tatayika, tonse tatayika! ²⁸Aliyense amene ayandikira, amene ayandikira chihema cha Atate wathu, afa. Kodi tonsefe tidzawonongeka?”
