Tim Jo-Lawi 17
1 Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya:
Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
2 “Wuo gi Harun gi yawuote kaachiel gi nyithind Israel duto kendo iwachnegi kama: ‘Ma e chik ma Jehova Nyasaye ochiwo
“Speak to Aaron, and to his sons, and to all the children of Israel, and say to them, ‘This is the thing which Yahweh has commanded:
3 Ja-Israel moro amora motimo misango gi rwath kata nyaim, kata diel ei kambi kata oko mar kambi,
Whatever man there is of the house of Israel who kills a bull, or lamb, or goat in the camp, or who kills it outside the camp,
4 to ok okele e dho Hemb Romo mondo otimgo ni Jehova Nyasaye misango e nyim Hema Maler mar Jehova Nyasaye, to ngʼatno nokwan mana kaka ngʼama oneko nikech osechwero remo, omiyo nongʼad kare oko kuom ogandagi.
and hasn’t brought it to the door of the Tent of Meeting to offer it as an offering to Yahweh before Yahweh’s tabernacle: blood shall be imputed to that man. He has shed blood. That man shall be cut off from among his people.
5 Chikni oketi mondo omi jo-Israel okelne Jehova Nyasaye misengini makoro gitimo e pewe. Nyaka gikelgi ne jadolo manochiwgi e dho Hemb Romo kaka misango mar lalruok.
This is to the end that the children of Israel may bring their sacrifices, which they sacrifice in the open field, that they may bring them to Yahweh, to the door of the Tent of Meeting, to the priest, and sacrifice them for sacrifices of peace offerings to Yahweh.
6 Jadolo nokir remo e kendo mar misango mar Jehova Nyasaye manie dho Hemb Romo, kendo owangʼ boche madum tik mangʼwe ngʼar ni Jehova Nyasaye.
The priest shall sprinkle the blood on Yahweh’s altar at the door of the Tent of Meeting, and burn the fat for a pleasant aroma to Yahweh.
7 Ok gichak gichiw misengini ne jochiende ma gisebedo ka gidwanyorego. Koro ma en chik momakou nyaka chiengʼ kaachiel gi tienge mabiro.’
They shall no more sacrifice their sacrifices to the goat idols, after which they play the prostitute. This shall be a statute forever to them throughout their generations.’
8 “Wachnegi kama: ‘Ka ja-Israel moro amora kata jadak manie diergi otimo misango miwangʼo pep, kata misango moro amora,
“You shall say to them, ‘Any man there is of the house of Israel, or of the strangers who live as foreigners among them, who offers a burnt offering or sacrifice,
9 kendo ok okele e dho Hemb Romo mondo otimgo ni Jehova Nyasaye misango, to ngʼatno nyaka ngʼad kare oko kuom ogandagi.
and doesn’t bring it to the door of the Tent of Meeting to sacrifice it to Yahweh, that man shall be cut off from his people.
10 “‘Ka ja-Israel moro amora kata japiny moro modak e diergi ochamo remb chiayo moro amora to anabed jasike, kendo anangʼade oko kuom ogandani.
“‘Any man of the house of Israel, or of the strangers who live as foreigners among them, who eats any kind of blood, I will set my face against that soul who eats blood, and will cut him off from among his people.
11 Nimar gima ochwe ngimane nitie e remo, omiyo asemiyougo mondo utim-go misango e kendo mar misango mondo upwodhrugo nikech remo ema itimogo misango mar pwodho ngima ngʼato.
For the life of the flesh is in the blood. I have given it to you on the altar to make atonement for your souls; for it is the blood that makes atonement by reason of the life.
12 Kuom mano, anyiso jo-Israel kama: “Ngʼato angʼata kuomgi kik cham remo kendo jodak manie dieru bende kik cham remo.”
Therefore I have said to the children of Israel, “No person among you may eat blood, nor may any stranger who lives as a foreigner among you eat blood.”
13 “‘Ja-Israel moro amora kata jadak manie dieru modhi dwar, momako le kata winyo mondo ocham, nyaka ol rembe piny mi oik kod lowo,
“‘Whatever man there is of the children of Israel, or of the strangers who live as foreigners among them, who takes in hunting any animal or bird that may be eaten, he shall pour out its blood, and cover it with dust.
14 nikech gik mangima duto ngimagi ni e rembgi. Mano emomiyo asewacho ne jo-Israel niya, “Kik ucham remb gimoro amora, nikech gima ochwe ngimane ni e rembe, kendo ngʼato angʼata mochame nongʼad kare oko.”
For as to the life of all flesh, its blood is with its life. Therefore I said to the children of Israel, “You shall not eat the blood of any kind of flesh; for the life of all flesh is its blood. Whoever eats it shall be cut off.”
15 “‘Ngʼato angʼata ma ja-Israel kata jadak manie dieru mochamo gima otho kende, kata mondiek onego nyaka luok lepe kende olwokre, kendo nobed mogak nyaka odhiambo, eka bangʼe nobed maler.
“‘Every person that eats what dies of itself, or that which is torn by animals, whether he is native-born or a foreigner, shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the evening. Then he shall be clean.
16 To ka ok olwoko lepe kendo ok olwokore, to nyaka oyud kum kuom kethone.’”
But if he doesn’t wash them, or bathe his flesh, then he shall bear his iniquity.’”
