< Numeri 6 >

1 Yehova anawuza Mose kuti,
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
2 “Yankhula ndi Aisraeli ndipo uwawuze kuti, ‘Ngati mwamuna kapena mkazi afuna kuchita lonjezo lapadera, lonjezo lodzipatula yekha kwa Yehova ngati Mnaziri,
“Speak to the sons of Israel, and you shall say to them: A man or a woman, when they have made a vow so that they may be sanctified, and when they are willing to consecrate themselves to the Lord,
3 sayenera kumwa vinyo kapena zakumwa zosasa ndipo asamamwe chakumwa chilichonse cha mphesa. Asamamwe madzi a mphesa kapena kudya mphesa zaziwisi kapena zowuma.
shall abstain from wine and from anything which is able to inebriate. They shall not drink vinegar made from wine or from any other drink, nor anything pressed from the grape. They shall not eat grapes, neither fresh nor dried.
4 Pa nthawi yonse imene ali Mnaziri, asamadye chilichonse chopangidwa kuchokera ku mphesa ngakhale mbewu zake kapena makungu ake.’
During all the days that they are consecrated to the Lord by vow, they shall not eat whatever may be from the vineyard, from raisins, even to grape seeds.
5 “‘Pa nthawi yonse ya lonjezo lodzipatula yekhalo, asamete kumutu kwake ndi lumo. Akhale wopatulika mpaka nthawi yake yonse ya kudzipatula yekha kwa Yehova itatha. Alileke tsitsi la pamutu pake kuti likule.’
During all the time of his separation, no razor shall pass over his head, even until the completion of the day when he is consecrated to the Lord. He shall be holy, letting the hair of his head grow long.
6 Pa nthawi yonse imene munthuyo wadzipatula yekha kwa Yehova asayandikire mtembo.
During all the time of his consecration, he shall not enter because of a death,
7 Ngakhale abambo ake kapena amayi ake kapena mchimwene wake kaya mchemwali wake atamwalira, asadzidetse pokhudza mitembo yawo chifukwa kulumbira kwake kwa kudzipatula yekha kwa Yehova kuli pamutu pake.
nor shall he contaminate himself, even over the funeral of his father, or his mother, or his brother, or his sister. For the consecration of his God is upon his head.
8 Munthuyo ndi wopatulika masiku onse odzipereka kwake kwa Yehova.
During all the days of his separation, he shall be holy to the Lord.
9 “Ngati munthu wina afa mwadzidzidzi pafupi naye ndi kudetsa tsitsi lake loperekedwalo, amete mutu wake pa tsiku lodziyeretsa, tsiku lachisanu ndi chiwiri.
But if anyone will have died unexpectedly before him, the head of his consecration shall be polluted, and he shall shave it in that very place, on the same day of his purification, and again on the seventh day.
10 Tsono pa tsiku lachisanu ndi chitatu abweretse nkhunda ziwiri kapena mawunda awiri anjiwa kwa wansembe pa khomo lolowera ku tenti ya msonkhano.
Then, on the eighth day, he shall offer two turtledoves or two young pigeons, to the priest at the entrance to the covenant of the testimony.
11 Wansembe apereke imodzi kuti ikhale nsembe yauchimo ndi ina nsembe yopsereza yotetezera tchimo chifukwa anachimwa popezeka pafupi ndi mtembo. Ndipo tsiku lomwelo apatulenso tsitsi la pamutu pake.
And the priest shall effect one for sin, and the other as a holocaust, and he shall pray for him, because he has sinned on account of the dead. And he shall sanctify his head on that day.
12 Adzipereke kwa Yehova pa nthawi yodzipatula ndipo abweretse nkhosa yayimuna ya chaka chimodzi ngati nsembe yopepesera. Masiku akale sawerengedwanso chifukwa anadzidetsa pa nthawi yodzipatulira kwake.
And he shall consecrate to the Lord the days of his separation, offering a one-year-old lamb for sin, yet in such a manner that the former days will be made null and void, because his sanctification was polluted.
13 “Tsono ili ndi lamulo la Mnaziri pamene nthawi yodzipatula kwake yatha: Abwere naye pa khomo la tenti ya msonkhano.
This is the law of consecration. When the days that he had decreed by vow have been completed, he shall bring him to the door of the tabernacle of the covenant,
14 Pamenepo apereke chopereka chake kwa Yehova: Nkhosa yayimuna ya chaka chimodzi yopanda chilema kuti ikhale nsembe yopsereza, mwana wankhosa wamkazi mmodzi wopanda chilema kuti ikhale nsembe yauchimo, ndi nkhosa imodzi yayikulu yayimuna kuti ikhale nsembe yachiyanjano,
and he shall offer his oblation to the Lord: an immaculate one-year-old male lamb as a holocaust, and an immaculate one-year-old female lamb for sin, and an immaculate ram, a peace-offering victim,
15 ndipo abwere pamodzi ndi nsembe yachakudya ndi nsembe yachakumwa ndi dengu la buledi wopanda yisiti, makeke opangidwa ndi ufa wosalala wosakaniza ndi mafuta, ndi timitanda ta buledi topakidwa mafuta.
also, a basket of unleavened bread, which has been sprinkled with oil, and cakes without leaven, anointed with oil, as well as the libations of each one.
16 “Wansembe apereke zimenezi pamaso pa Yehova ndi kuchita nsembe ya uchimo ndi nsembe yopsereza.
And the priest shall offer them before the Lord, and he shall perform both the sin offering and the holocaust.
17 Apereke dengu la buledi wopanda yisiti ndiponso nsembe yachiyanjano kwa Yehova ya nkhosa yayimuna, pamodzi ndi chopereka cha chakudya ndi chopereka cha chakumwa.
Yet truly, the ram he shall immolate as a peace-offering victim to the Lord, offering at the same time the basket of unleavened bread, and the libations which are required by custom.
18 “Mnaziriyo amete tsitsi limene analipereka lija pa khomo la tenti ya msonkhano. Atenge tsitsilo ndi kuliyika pa moto umene uli pansi pa nsembe yachiyanjano.
Then the Nazarite shall be shaved of the long hair of his consecration, before the door of the tabernacle of the covenant. And he shall take his hair, and he shall place it upon the fire, which is under the sacrifice of the peace offerings.
19 “Mnaziriyo atatha kumeta tsitsi analiperekalo, wansembe ayike mʼmanja mwake mwendo wa mmwamba wankhosa yayimuna umene waphikidwa ndipo atengenso keke ndi kamtanda ka buledi, zonse zopanda yisiti zomwe zili mʼdengu lija.
And he shall take the cooked shoulder of the ram, and one twist of bread without leaven from the basket, and one unleavened cake, and he shall deliver them into the hands of the Nazarite, after his head has been shaven.
20 Wansembe aziweyule pamaso pa Yehova ngati nsembe yoweyula. Zimenezi ndi zopatulika ndipo ndi za wansembe pamodzi ndi chidale chimene anachiweyula ndi ntchafu yomwe anayipereka ija. Zitatha izi, Mnaziri akhoza kumwa vinyo.
And receiving them again from him, he shall elevate them in the sight of the Lord. And having been sanctified, these shall be for the priest, as also the breast, which was ordered to be separated, and the leg. After this, the Nazarite is able to drink wine.
21 “Ili ndi lamulo la Mnaziri yemwe walonjeza kudzipereka kwa Yehova podzipatula yekha kuphatikiza pa zomwe angathe kukwaniritsa. Ayenera kukwaniritsa lonjezo lomwe wachitalo potsata lamulo la Mnaziri.”
This is the law of the Nazarite, when he has vowed his oblation to the Lord in the time of his consecration, aside from those things which his hand shall find. According to what he had vowed in his mind, so shall he do, to the perfection of his sanctification.”
22 Yehova anawuza Mose kuti,
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
23 “Uza Aaroni ndi ana ake aamuna kuti, ‘Umu ndi mmene muzidalitsira Aisraeli. Muzinena kuti,
“Say to Aaron and his sons: Thus shall you bless the sons of Israel, and you shall say to them:
24 “‘Yehova akudalitse ndi kukusunga;
‘May the Lord bless you and keep you.
25 Yehova awalitse nkhope yake pa iwe, nakuchitira chisomo;
May the Lord reveal his face to you and take pity on you.
26 Yehova akweze nkhope yake pa iwe, nakupatse mtendere.’”
May the Lord turn his countenance toward you and grant peace to you.’
27 Choncho akadzatchula dzina langa podalitsa Aisraeli, Ine ndidzawadalitsadi.
And they shall invoke my name over the sons of Israel, and I will bless them.”
