1 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ,
2 Speak to all the congregation of the sons of Israel, and say to them, Ye shall be holy, for I Jehovah your God am holy.
“Arĩria kĩũngano gĩothe kĩa Isiraeli, ũmeere atĩrĩ, ‘Tuĩkai atheru tondũ niĩ, Jehova Ngai wanyu, ndĩ mũtheru.
3 Every man shall fear his mother and his father. And ye shall keep my sabbaths. I am Jehovah your God.
“‘O mũndũ wanyu no nginya atĩĩe nyina na ithe, na no nginya mũrũmagie Thabatũ ciakwa. Niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova Ngai wanyu.

6 It shall be eaten the same day ye offer it, and on the morrow. And if any remain until the third day, it shall be burnt with fire.
Igongona rĩu mũrĩrĩĩage o mũthenya ũcio rĩarutwo, kana mũthenya ũyũ ũngĩ; kĩndũ o gĩothe kĩa rĩo kĩngĩtigara gĩkinyie mũthenya wa gatatũ, no nginya gĩcinwo kĩhĩe biũ.
7 And if it is eaten at all on the third day, it is an abomination. It shall not be accepted.
Kĩndũ o na kĩrĩkũ kĩarĩo kĩngĩkaarĩĩo mũthenya wa gatatũ, igongona rĩu ti rĩtheru na rĩtigetĩkĩrwo.
8 But he who eats it shall bear his iniquity, because he has profaned the holy thing of Jehovah, and that soul shall be cut off from his people.

20 And whoever lies carnally with a woman, who is a bondmaid, betrothed to a husband, and not at all redeemed, nor freedom given her, they shall be punished. They shall not be put to death, because she was not free.
“‘Mũndũ mũrũme angĩkoma na mũndũ-wa-nja ngombo, nake aakorwo nĩmũũrie nĩ mũndũ ũngĩ, no ndakũũrĩtwo kana akarekererio, no nginya maherithio ta ũrĩa kwagĩrĩire. No matikooragwo, tondũ mũndũ-wa-nja ũcio ndatigĩte gũtuĩka ngombo.
