Numeri 5
1 Yehova anawuza Mose kuti,
The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
2 “Lamula Aisraeli kuti achotse mu msasa aliyense amene ali ndi matenda opatsirana a pa khungu kapena matenda otuluka madzi mʼthupi a mtundu uliwonse, kapena aliyense wodetsedwa chifukwa cha munthu wakufa.
“Command the children of Israel that they put out of the camp every leper, everyone who has a discharge, and whoever is unclean by a corpse.
3 Muchotse amuna komanso amayi ndipo muwatulutsire kunja kwa msasa kuti asadetse msasa wawo kumene Ine ndimakhala pakati pawo.”
You shall put both male and female outside of the camp so that they do not defile their camp, in the midst of which I dwell.”
4 Aisraeli anachitadi zimenezi. Anawatulutsira kunja kwa msasa monga momwe Yehova analamulira Mose.
The children of Israel did so, and put them outside of the camp; as the LORD spoke to Moses, so the children of Israel did.
5 Yehova anati kwa Mose,
The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
6 “Uza Aisraeli kuti, ‘Pamene mwamuna kapena mayi walakwira mnzake mwa njira iliyonse, ndiye kuti ndi wosakhulupirika pamaso pa Yehova. Munthuyo ndi wochimwa ndithu ndipo
“Speak to the children of Israel: ‘When a man or woman commits any sin that men commit, so as to trespass against the LORD, and that soul is guilty,
7 ayenera kuwulula tchimo limene anachitalo. Ayenera kubweza zonse zimene anawononga, ndipo awonjezerepo chimodzi mwa magawo asanu ndi kuzipereka kwa munthu amene anamulakwirayo.
then he shall confess his sin which he has done; and he shall make restitution for his guilt in full, add to it the fifth part of it, and give it to him in respect of whom he has been guilty.
8 Ngati wolakwiridwayo alibe mʼbale komwe kungapite zinthu zobwezedwazo, zinthuzo zikhale za Yehova ndipo azipereke kwa wansembe, pamodzi ndi nkhosa yayimuna ya nsembe yopepesera tchimo lake.
But if the man has no kinsman to whom restitution may be made for the guilt, the restitution for guilt which is made to the LORD shall be the priest’s, in addition to the ram of the atonement, by which atonement shall be made for him.
9 Zopereka zonse zopatulika zomwe Aisraeli abwera nazo kwa wansembe zikhale za wansembeyo.
Every heave offering of all the holy things of the children of Israel, which they present to the priest, shall be his.
10 Mphatso zilizonse zopatulika ndi za munthuyo, koma zomwe wapereka kwa wansembe ndi za wansembeyo.’”
Every man’s holy things shall be his; whatever any man gives the priest, it shall be his.’”
11 Kenaka Yehova anawuza Mose kuti,
The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
12 “Yankhula ndi Aisraeli ndipo uwawuze kuti, ‘Ngati mkazi wa munthu wina ayenda njira yosayenera nakhala wosakhulupirika kwa mwamuna wake,
“Speak to the children of Israel, and tell them: ‘If any man’s wife goes astray and is unfaithful to him,
13 nakagonana ndi mwamuna wina koma mwamuna wake wosadziwa, ndipo palibe wina aliyense wadziwa za kudzidetsa kwake (pakuti palibe mboni yomuneneza chifukwa sanagwidwe akuchita),
and a man lies with her carnally, and it is hidden from the eyes of her husband and this is kept concealed, and she is defiled, there is no witness against her, and she is not taken in the act;
14 mwamuna wake ndi kuyamba kuchita nsanje ndi kukayikira mkazi wakeyo kuti ndi wodetsedwa, komanso ngati amuchitira nsanje ndi kumukayikira ngakhale asanadzidetse,
and the spirit of jealousy comes on him, and he is jealous of his wife and she is defiled; or if the spirit of jealousy comes on him, and he is jealous of his wife and she is not defiled;
15 apite naye mkaziyo kwa wansembe. Ndipo popita atengenso gawo lakhumi la chopereka chaufa wa barele wokwana kilogalamu imodzi mʼmalo mwa mkaziyo. Asathire mafuta pa nsembeyo kapena lubani, chifukwa ndi nsembe ya chopereka ya chakudya yopereka chifukwa cha nsanje, nsembe yozindikiritsa tchimo.’”
then the man shall bring his wife to the priest, and shall bring her offering for her: one tenth of an ephah of barley meal. He shall pour no oil on it, nor put frankincense on it, for it is a meal offering of jealousy, a meal offering of memorial, bringing iniquity to memory.
16 “‘Wansembe abwere naye mkaziyo ndi kumuyimitsa pamaso pa Yehova.
The priest shall bring her near, and set her before the LORD.
17 Ndipo wansembeyo atenge madzi oyera mʼmbiya ya dothi ndi kuyika mʼmadzimo fumbi lapansi la mʼTenti ya Msonkhano.
The priest shall take holy water in an earthen vessel; and the priest shall take some of the dust that is on the floor of the tabernacle and put it into the water.
18 Wansembe atayimika mkaziyo pamaso pa Yehova, amumasule tsitsi lake, ndipo ayike mʼmanja mwake nsembe yozindikiritsa tchimo, nsembe yachakudya ya nsanje, wansembeyo atanyamula madzi owawa omwe amabweretsa temberero.’
The priest shall set the woman before the LORD, and let the hair of the woman’s head go loose, and put the meal offering of memorial in her hands, which is the meal offering of jealousy. The priest shall have in his hand the water of bitterness that brings a curse.
19 Kenaka wansembeyo alumbiritse mkaziyo ndi kuti, ‘Ngati mwamuna wina aliyense sanagonane ndi iwe ndipo sunayende njira yoyipa ndi kukhala wodetsedwa pomwe uli pa ukwati ndi mwamuna wako, madzi owawa awa omwe amabweretsa temberero asakupweteke.
The priest shall cause her to take an oath and shall tell the woman, “If no man has lain with you, and if you have not gone aside to uncleanness, being under your husband’s authority, be free from this water of bitterness that brings a curse.
20 Koma ngati wayenda njira yoyipa uli pa ukwati ndi mwamuna wako ndi kudzidetsa pogonana ndi mwamuna amene si mwamuna wako,’
But if you have gone astray, being under your husband’s authority, and if you are defiled, and some man has lain with you besides your husband—”
21 pamenepo wansembe alumbiritse mkaziyo ndi mawu a matemberero ndi kumuwuza kuti, ‘Yehova achititse anthu ako kukutemberera ndi kukunyoza pamene awononga ntchafu yako ndi kutupitsa mimba yako.
then the priest shall cause the woman to swear with the oath of cursing, and the priest shall tell the woman, “May the LORD make you a curse and an oath among your people, when the LORD allows your thigh to fall away, and your body to swell;
22 Madzi awa obweretsa temberero alowe mʼthupi mwako ndi kutupitsa mimba yako ndi kuwononga ntchafu yako.’” “Pamenepo mkaziyo anene kuti, ‘Ameni, ameni.’”
and this water that brings a curse will go into your bowels, and make your body swell, and your thigh fall away.” The woman shall say, “Amen, Amen.”
23 “‘Wansembe alembe matemberero amenewa mʼbuku ndi kuwanyika mʼmadzi owawa aja.
“‘The priest shall write these curses in a book, and he shall wipe them into the water of bitterness.
24 Amwetse mkaziyo madzi owawawo omwe amabweretsa temberero, ndipo madzi amenewo adzalowa mʼmimba mwake ndi kuyambitsa ululu woopsa.
He shall make the woman drink the water of bitterness that causes the curse; and the water that causes the curse shall enter into her and become bitter.
25 Wansembe achotse mʼmanja mwa mkaziyo nsembe yachakudya ya nsanje ija, nayiweyula pamaso pa Yehova ndi kuyipereka pa guwa lansembe.
The priest shall take the meal offering of jealousy out of the woman’s hand, and shall wave the meal offering before the LORD, and bring it to the altar.
26 Tsono wansembeyo atapeko ufa dzanja limodzi kuti ukhale wachikumbutso ndi kuwutentha pa guwa lansembe. Atatha izi, amwetse mkaziyo madzi aja.
The priest shall take a handful of the meal offering, as its memorial portion, and burn it on the altar, and afterward shall make the woman drink the water.
27 Ndipo ngati mkaziyo anadzidetsadi ndi kukhala wosakhulupirika kwa mwamuna wake, pamene amwa madzi obweretsa matemberero aja, nalowa mʼmimba mwake, adzamva ululu woopsa. Mimba yake idzatupa ndi ntchafu yake idzawonongeka ndipo adzakhala wotembereredwa pakati pa anthu ake.
When he has made her drink the water, then it shall happen, if she is defiled and has committed a trespass against her husband, that the water that causes the curse will enter into her and become bitter, and her body will swell, and her thigh will fall away; and the woman will be a curse among her people.
28 Koma ngati mkaziyo sanadzidetse ndi kuti alibe tchimo, adzakhala wopanda mlandu ndipo adzabereka ana.
If the woman is not defiled, but is clean; then she shall be free, and shall conceive offspring.
29 “‘Limeneli ndiye lamulo la nsanje pamene mkazi wayenda njira yoyipa ndi kudzidetsa ali pa ukwati ndi mwamuna wake,
“‘This is the law of jealousy, when a wife, being under her husband, goes astray, and is defiled,
30 kapena pamene maganizo a nsanje abwera kwa mwamuna wake chifukwa chokayikira mkazi wakeyo. Wansembe azitenga mkazi wotere ndi kumuyimiritsa pamaso pa Yehova ndipo agwiritse ntchito lamulo lonseli kwa mkaziyo.
or when the spirit of jealousy comes on a man, and he is jealous of his wife; then he shall set the woman before the LORD, and the priest shall execute on her all this law.
31 Mwamunayo adzakhala wopanda tchimo lililonse, koma mkaziyo adzasenza zotsatira za tchimo lake.’”
The man shall be free from iniquity, and that woman shall bear her iniquity.’”
