Kwan 6
1 Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya,
The Lord told Moses,
2 “Wuo kod jo-Israel kendo inyisgi kama: ‘Ka dichwo kata dhako dwaro chiwo singruok makende, ma en singruok makende ne Jehova Nyasaye kaka ja-Nazir,
“Tell the Israelites: If a man or a woman makes a special promise to become a Nazirite, to dedicate themselves to the Lord,
3 to nyaka owe madho divai kod math mamoko moket e thowi kendo ok onego omadh kongʼo kata kongʼo moa kuom math mamoko moket e thowi. Ok onego omadh gimoro amora molos gi olemb mzabibu, kata chamo olemb mzabibu manumu kata motwo.
they must not drink any wine or other alcoholic drink. They must not even drink vinegar made from wine or other alcoholic drink, or any grape juice or eat grapes or raisins.
4 E kinde duto ma en ja-Nazir, ok onego ocham gimoro amora mowuok kuom olemb mzabibu, bed ni en kothe kata opokone.
The whole time they are dedicated to the Lord they must not eat anything from a grapevine, not even grape seeds or skins.
5 “‘E thuoloni duto ma en e bwo singruok mar bedo tenge, wiye ok noliel gi wembe. Enorite maler ne Jehova Nyasaye nyaka ndalone mag kwongʼruok norum; kendo enopidh yie wiye maboyo.
They must not use a razor on their heads during the whole time of this promise of dedication. They must remain holy until their time of dedication to the Lord is finished. They must let their hair grow long.
6 “‘E thuoloni duto ma en e bwo singruok mar bedo tenge ne Jehova Nyasaye, ok onego osud machiegni gi ringre ngʼama otho.
During this time of dedication to the Lord they must not go near a dead body.
7 Bed ni wuon-gi kata min-gi kata owadgi kata nyamin-gi ema otho, to ok onego obed mogak, nikech ranyisi mar bedo ngʼat mowal ne Nyasaye ni e wiye.
Even if it's their father, mother, brother or sister who has died, they are not to make themselves unclean, because their uncut hair announces their dedication to God.
8 E kindeno duto ma okete tenge, en ngʼama owal ne Jehova Nyasaye.
Through the whole time of their dedication they are to be holy to the Lord.
9 “‘Ka dipo ni ngʼato otho bute, mi yie wiye mosewal ogak, to nyaka oliel yie wiyeno chiengʼ mar abiriyo mipwodhee.
However, if someone dies suddenly close to them, making them unclean, they must wait seven days, and on the seventh day when they are made clean again they are to shave their heads.
10 To chiengʼ mar aboro nyaka okel akuch odugla ariyo kata nyithi akuru ne jadolo e dhoranga Hemb Romo.
On the eighth day they shall take two turtledoves or two young pigeons to the priest at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.
11 Jadolo nochiw achiel kaka misango mar golo richo to machielo kaka misango miwangʼo pep mar kwayone ngʼwono nikech notimo richo kuom bedo kama ringre ngʼama otho nitie. E odiechiengno nyaka opwodh wiye.
The priest will offer one as a sin offering and the other as a burnt offering to make them right, because they became guilty by being near the dead body. On that day they must re-dedicate themselves and let their hair grow again.
12 E kindeno duto mokete tenge nyaka ochiwre ne Jehova Nyasaye kendo okel nyaim ma hike achiel kaka misango michiwo mar pwodhruok e ketho. To kinde mane osetieko kowale ok nokwan nikech yie wiye mane nyiso ni owaleno ne odoko mogak.
They must re-dedicate themselves to the Lord for the full time they originally promised and bring a one-year-old male lamb as a guilt offering. The previous days don't count towards the time of dedication because they became unclean.
13 “‘Koro mano e chik momi ja-Nazir ka kinde mokete tenge orumo kendo nyaka kele e dhoranga Hemb Romo.
These are the rules to be observed when the Nazirite's time of dedication is finished. They are to be taken to the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.
14 E dhorangach kanyo ema nyaka ochiwe misangone ne Jehova Nyasaye ma gin: nyaim ma hike achiel maonge songa kaka misango miwangʼo pep, sibini ma hike achiel maonge songa kaka misango migologo richo; im maonge songa kaka chiwo mar lalruok,
There they are to present an offering to the Lord of a one-year-old male lamb without defects as a burnt offering, a one-year-old female lamb without defects as a sin offering, and ram without defects as a peace offering.
15 kaachiel gi chiwo mar cham kod misango miolo piny, kod okapu mopongʼ gi makati ma ok oketie thowi kaka kek molos gi mogo mayom moru gi mo, kod chapat mowir gi mo.
In addition they are to bring a basket of bread without yeast made from the best flour mixed with olive oil and wafers without yeast coated with olive oil as well as their grain offerings and drink offerings.
16 “‘Jadolo nochiwgi e nyim Jehova Nyasaye kaka misango mar pwodhruok e richo kod misango miwangʼo pep.
The priest will present all these before the Lord as well as sacrificing the sin offering and the burnt offering.
17 Bende nochiw okapu man-gi makati ma ok oketie thowi kod im kaka misango mar lalruok ne Jehova Nyasaye, kaachiel gi chiwo mar cham kod misango miolo piny.
He will also sacrifice a ram as a peace offering to the Lord, together with the basket of bread made without yeast. In addition the priest will present the grain offering and drink offering.
18 “‘Bangʼe e dhoranga Hemb Romo, ja-Nazirno nyaka liel yie wiye mane osewal tenge. Enokaw yie wiyeno mi olute e mach mantiere e bwo misango mar chiwo mar lalruok.
Then the Nazirites are to shave their heads at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting. They shall take the hair from their heads that were dedicated, and place it on the fire under the peace offering.
19 “‘Bangʼ ka ja-Nazirno oselielo yie wiye mane osewal tenge, jadolo nomiye bad im mosechwaki, kod kek kod chapat mogoloe okapu, mago molos ma ok oketie thowi.
Once the Nazirites have shaved, the priest will take the boiled shoulder from the ram, one bread without yeast from the basket, and one wafer without yeast, and place them in their hands.
20 Bangʼ mano jadolo noliergi e nyim Jehova Nyasaye kaka misango mifwayo; kaachiel gi agoko kod em mane olier nimar gin gik mopwodhi kendo gin mek jadolo. Bangʼ timo kamano, ja-Nazir koro nyalo mana madho divai.
The priest will wave them as a wave offering before the Lord. These items are holy and belong to the priest, as well as the breast of the wave offering and the thigh that was offered. Once this is finished, Nazirites may drink wine.
21 “‘Mano e chik momako ja-Nazir mosekwongʼore kaluwore gi pwodhruok mare kendo mano e misango manyaka otimne Jehova Nyasaye kaachiel gi gimoro monyalo chiwo. Nyaka ochop singo mar kwongʼruok mane ochiwo, kaluwore gi chik mar ja-Nazir.’”
These are the rules to be observed when a Nazirite promises to give offerings to the Lord regarding their dedication. They can also bring additional offerings if they can afford it. Every Nazirite must fulfill whatever promises they have made when they dedicated themselves.”
22 Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya,
The Lord told Moses,
23 “Nyis Harun kod yawuote ni, ‘Ma e kaka onego ugwedh jo-Israel. Wachnegi kama:
“Tell Aaron and his sons: This is how you are to bless the Israelites. This is what they are to say:
24 “‘Jehova Nyasaye mondo ogwedhu kendo oritu;
‘May the Lord bless you and take care of you.
25 Wangʼ Jehova Nyasaye mondo orieny kuomu kendo omiu ngʼwono mogundho;
May the Lord smile on you and be gracious to you.
26 Jehova Nyasaye orangu maber kendo omiu kwe.’
May the Lord watch over you and give you peace.’
27 “Kamano e kaka ginihul nyinga kuom jo-Israel, kendo anagwedhgi.”
Whenever the priests bless the Israelites in my name, I will bless them.”
