< Tim Jo-Lawi 5 >

1 “‘Ngʼato angʼata ma nokwongʼre kata ma notamre mar hulo wach moro mosewinjo kata moseneno, en bende nobed jaketho, kendo nyaka kume mi ochul.
If you sin by not giving the evidence you have about a legal case, whether you saw something yourself or heard about it, you bear responsibility for your guilt.
2 “‘Kata ka ngʼato omulo gimoro makwero, bed ni en le mar bungu motho kata gik mamol motho, ka ok ongʼeyo, mi ofwenye achien, to enodok jaketho.
If you touch anything unclean such as the dead body of any unclean wild animal or farm animals or vermin, even if you're unaware of it, you become unclean and guilty.
3 Kata ka orere kuom gimoro makwero moa kuom dhano ka ok ongʼeyo, mi ofwenyo achien, to enodok jaketho.
If you touch something unclean from someone else who is unclean, even if you're unaware of it, you become guilty.
4 Ka ngʼato ohedhore ma okwongʼore mar timo gimoro, maber kata marach ka ok ongʼeyo, (e wach moro ma ngʼato thoro hedhore ka kwongʼore) mi bangʼe achien ofwenyo, to enodok jaketho.
If you foolishly swear to do something, (whether good or bad, and in whatever way people impulsively swear an oath), even if you're unaware of it being wrong, when you eventually realize it, you are guilty.
5 Ka ngʼato angʼata en jaketho e achiel kuom wechegi, to nyaka ohul kaka oseketho,
If you become guilty in one of these ways, you must confess your sin,
6 kendo nyaka okel ni Jehova Nyasaye rombo kata diel madhako kaka misango mar golo richo kuom ketho mosetimo; bangʼe jadolo nopwodhnego kethoneno.
and you must take your guilt offering of a female lamb or goat to the Lord as a sin offering for your sin. The priest will make your sin right.
7 “‘To ka ok onyal chiwo nyarombo, to nokel akuche odugla ariyo kata nyithi akuru ariyo ni Jehova Nyasaye kuom richo mosetimono. Kuom mano, akuru achiel notimnego misango mar golo richo, to machielo to notimnego misango miwangʼo pep.
If you can't afford a lamb, you may offer to the Lord as compensation for your sin two turtledoves or two young pigeons, one as a sin offering and one as a burnt offering.
8 Enokelgi ne jadolo, eka jadolo nokwong ochiw winyo mar misango mar golo richo. Enomak wiye komino ngʼute, to ok nochode chuth,
You are to take them to the priest, who shall present the first one as the sin offering. He is to wring its head from the neck without removing it completely.
9 kendo nokir remb winyono moko e kor kendo mar misango, to remo modongʼ to mondo ochwer e tiend kendono, nikech en misango mar golo richo.
Then he is to sprinkle some of the blood of the sin offering on the side of the altar while the rest of the blood is poured out at the bottom of the altar. It is a sin offering.
10 Jadolo nochiw winyo machielo modongʼ kaka misango miwangʼo pep e yo ma chik dwaro kendo mondo opwodhego kuom richo mosetimo mi nowene.
The priest must then prepare the second bird as a burnt offering according to the regulations. In this way the priest will make you right for your sin, and you will be forgiven.
11 “‘To ka ok onyal yudo kata mana akuche odugla ariyo kata nyithi akuru ariyo, to chunoni nyaka ochiw kilo angʼwen mar mogo mayom kaka misango mar golo richo. Kik oolie mo kata kik oketie ubani, nikech en misango mar golo richo.
If you can't afford two turtledoves or two young pigeons you may bring a tenth of an ephah of the best flour as a sin offering. Don't put olive oil or frankincense on it, because it is a sin offering.
12 Eka enokel mogono ni jadolo eka jadolo nojuke sanja kaka rapar, mi nowangʼe e kendo mar misango ewi misengini miwangʼo gi mach ni Jehova Nyasaye. Mano en misango mar golo richo.
Take it to the priest, who shall take a handful as a ‘reminder part’ and burn it on the altar on top of the burnt offerings to the Lord. It is a sin offering.
13 Kamano e kaka jadolo notimne pwodhruok kuom richo mosetimo kendo nowene. Mana kaka chiwo mag cham, chiwo mamoko nobed mag jadolo.’”
This is how the priest will make right any of these sins you have committed, and you will be forgiven. The rest of the offering will belong to the priest, just like the grain offering.”
14 Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya,
The Lord told Moses,
15 “Ka ngʼato oketho mi otimo richo mar oyiem kaluwore gi chike maler mag Jehova Nyasaye, to nyaka okel ne Jehova Nyasaye im maonge songa kendo man-gi nengo kaluwore gi rapim mar shekel mar kama ler mar lemo. En misango michiwo mar pwodhruok e ketho.
“If any of you neglects unintentionally all that the Lord has declared belong to him and are holy, you must bring your guilt offering to the Lord: a ram without defects from your herd or but one of equivalent value in silver shekels (according to the sanctuary shekel standard). It is a guilt offering.
16 Nyaka ochul nengo mar gima ne ok ochiwo kaluwore gi chike maler, kendo bende omedi achiel kuom abich mar nengono kendo ochiwe duto ne jadolo, mabiro kawo imno kendo otimnego misango mar pwodhruok e ketho eka nowene richone.
As regards any holy requirement you failed to contribute, you must pay compensation by adding a fifth of its value to it and then give it to the priest, who will make it right with the ram as a guilt offering, and you will be forgiven.
17 “Ka ngʼata otimo richo kendo otimo gima okwer e chik moro amora mar Jehova Nyasaye, kata obedo ni ok ongʼeye, to en richo kendo en okwane jaketho.
If you sin and break any of the Lord's commandments, even if you are unaware of it, you are still guilty and bear responsibility for your guilt.
18 Nyaka okelne jadolo im man-gi nengo kendo maonge songa kaka misango mipwodhogo ketho. Kamano jadolo nopwodhe kuom ketho mosetimo kokia kendo nowene.
You must take to the priest a ram without defects of the appropriate value from the flock as a guilt offering. Then the priest will make right for you the wrong you did in ignorance, and you will be forgiven.
19 En misango mar pwodhruok e ketho; nikech osetimo marach e nyim Jehova Nyasaye.”
It is a guilt offering because you were guilty as far as the Lord was concerned.”
