Nadab and Abihu bring fire wey dia Papa no ever command, and fire from am consume dem. Aaron keep quiet. Den dem forbid priests to drink wine for duty and charge dem to teach wetin holy from wetin common — and Moses accept Aaron sorrow over one offering wey dem no chop.

Chapter 10.

Nadab and Abihu, Aaron im sons, each one carry im censer, put fire inside, add incense, and offer fire wey dem no get permission for am before our Papa, wey he no tell dem make dem do. Fire come comot from our Papa im presence and burn dem finish, and dem die before our Papa. a a v2 Di very fire wey fall from our Papa to accept di people im worship now dey fall to burn dem wey come near am anyhow — im nearness na gift and na holy fire together.

Moses talk give Aaron say, “Na dis one our Papa talk: ‘Among dem wey dey near me I go show mysef holy, and before all di people I go dey honored.’” Aaron keep quiet.

Moses call Mishael and Elzaphan, Uzziel im sons, wey be Aaron im uncle, and talk give dem say, “Come near, carry una brothers from in front of di sanctuary, comot go outside di camp.” Dem come near and carry dem still inside dia tunics comot from di camp, as Moses talk.

Moses talk give Aaron and im sons Eleazar and Ithamar say, “No make una hair scatter loose or tear una clothes, if not una go die and vex go come on di whole community. But una relatives, di whole house of Israel, fit cry for di burning wey our Papa kindle. No comot from di Tent of Meeting entrance, if not una go die—our Papa im anointing oil dey on una.” Dem do as Moses talk.

Our Papa talk give Aaron say,

“You and una sons no must drink wine or strong drink when una enter di tent of meeting, if not una go die. Dis one na statute wey go last for una generations, make una fit separate holy from common, and unclean from clean, and so dat una go fit teach di people of Israel all di statutes wey I tell dem through Moses.”

Moses talk give Aaron and im sons wey remain, Eleazar and Ithamar say: “Take di grain offering wey remain from di fire offerings to our Papa, and chop am without yeast beside di altar—e be most holy. Chop am for holy place—e be una portion and una sons portion from di fire offerings to our Papa, because na so dem command me. But you, una sons, and una daughters fit chop di breast wey dem wave and di thigh wey dem raise for clean place; dem give am as una portion and una sons portion from Israel im peace offerings. b b v14 Wave offering na ritual gesture wey di priest go move di portion go toward di altar and come back, dey present am symbolically to God and dey collect am back as priest im portion. Dem must bring di thigh wey dem raise and di breast wey dem wave, together with di fat offerings wey dem burn with fire, dey wave dem as wave offering before our Papa; dem be una own and una sons own as portion wey go last, as our Papa command.”

Moses ask well well about di goat of di sin offering and find out say dem don burn am finish. E vex with Eleazar and Ithamar, Aaron im sons wey remain, and talk say, “Why una no chop di sin offering for di place of di sanctuary? Since e be most holy, our Papa give am to una make una fit remove di congregation im guilt and make atonement for dem before our Papa. Since dem no bring im blood inside di sanctuary, una for chop am inside di sanctuary, as I command.”

Aaron talk give Moses say, “Look, today my sons offer dia sin offering and dia burnt offering before our Papa, and still all dis one happen to me. If I bin chop di sin offering today, e for please our Papa?”

When Moses hear dat one, im mind rest.
