< Leviticus 5 >

1 “If someone sins by failing to testify when he hears a public charge about something he has witnessed, whether he has seen it or learned of it, he shall bear the iniquity.
“‘Mũndũ angĩaga kũruta ũira rĩrĩa etĩtwo arute ũira igũrũ rĩa ũndũ oonete kana akaigua, mũndũ ũcio nĩehĩtie, na nĩagacookererwo nĩ wĩhia ũcio wake.
2 Or if a person touches anything unclean—whether the carcass of any unclean wild animal or livestock or crawling creature—even if he is unaware of it, he is unclean and guilty.
“‘Kana mũndũ angĩhutia kĩndũ o nakĩ kĩrĩ thaahu, kĩrĩ kĩimba kĩa nyamũ ya gĩthaka ĩrĩ thaahu kana kĩa ũhiũ ũrĩ thaahu, kana gĩa ciũmbe iria itambaga thĩ irĩ thaahu, o na aakorwo ndooĩ ũndũ ũcio, mũndũ ũcio nĩanyiitĩtwo nĩ thaahu na nĩahĩtĩtie.
3 Or if he touches human uncleanness—anything by which one becomes unclean—even if he is unaware of it, when he realizes it, he is guilty.
“‘Kana angĩhutia kĩndũ kĩrĩ thaahu kiumĩte harĩ mũndũ, kĩndũ o nakĩ kĩrĩa kĩngĩmũthaahia, o na akorwo ũndũ ũcio ndaũũĩ-rĩ, hĩndĩ ĩrĩa akaaũmenya, nĩagatuĩka nĩahĩtĩtie.
4 Or if someone swears thoughtlessly with his lips to do anything good or evil—in whatever matter a man may rashly pronounce an oath—even if he is unaware of it, when he realizes it, he is guilty in the matter.
“‘Kana mũndũ angĩĩhĩta gwĩka ũndũ o na ũrĩkũ atawĩcirĩtie wega, ũrĩ ũndũ mwega kana mũũru, ũndũ-inĩ o wothe ũrĩa mũndũ angĩhiũha kwĩhĩta, o na angĩkorwo atekũũmenya-rĩ, rĩrĩa akaaũmenya, nĩagatuĩka nĩahĩtĩtie ũndũ-inĩ ũcio.
5 If someone incurs guilt in one of these ways, he must confess the sin he has committed,
“‘Rĩrĩa mũndũ ahĩtĩtie na njĩra ĩmwe ya macio-rĩ, no nginya oimbũre ũndũ ũrĩa ehĩtie naguo,
6 and he must bring his guilt offering to the LORD for the sin he has committed: a female lamb or goat from the flock as a sin offering. And the priest will make atonement for him concerning his sin.
na nĩ ũndũ wa rĩĩhia rĩu ekĩte, no nginya arehere Jehova kamwatĩ kana mbũri kuuma rũũru-inĩ, rĩrĩ iruta rĩa kũhoroherio mehia; nake mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩakamũhoroheria mehia make.
7 If, however, he cannot afford a lamb, he may bring to the LORD as restitution for his sin two turtledoves or two young pigeons—one as a sin offering and the other as a burnt offering.
“‘Angĩkorwo ndangĩona kagondu, nĩakarehera Jehova ndirahũgĩ igĩrĩ kana tũtutuura twĩrĩ, rĩrĩ irĩhi rĩa wĩhia wake, ĩmwe ĩrĩ ya iruta rĩa kũhoroherio mehia na ĩrĩa ĩngĩ ĩrĩ ya iruta rĩa njino.
8 He is to bring them to the priest, who shall first present the one for the sin offering. He is to twist its head at the front of its neck without severing it;
Nĩagacirehera mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai, ũrĩa ũkaamba kũruta ĩrĩa ya iruta rĩa kũhoroherio mehia. Nĩakamĩthiora ngingo yunĩke no ndakamĩtinanie,
9 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 drained out at the base of the altar. It is a sin offering.
na nĩagacooka aminjaminje thakame ĩmwe ya iruta rĩu rĩa mehia mwena-inĩ wa kĩgongona, na thakame ĩyo ĩngĩ amĩite thĩ gĩtina-inĩ gĩa kĩgongona. Rĩu nĩrĩo iruta rĩa kũhoroherio mehia.
10 And the priest must prepare the second bird as a burnt offering according to the ordinance. In this way the priest will make atonement for him for the sin he has committed, and he will be forgiven.
Mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩagacooka arute ĩyo ĩngĩ ĩrĩ iruta rĩa njino o ta ũrĩa gũtuĩtwo, na amũhoroherie mehia marĩa ekĩte, nake nĩakarekerwo.
11 But if he cannot afford two turtledoves or two young pigeons, he may bring a tenth of an ephah of fine flour as a sin offering. He must not put olive oil or frankincense on it, because it is a sin offering.
“‘No rĩrĩ, angĩkorwo ndangĩona ndirahũgĩ igĩrĩ kana tũtutuura twĩrĩ, nĩakĩrute gĩcunjĩ gĩa ikũmi kĩa eba ya mũtu ũrĩa mũhinyu mũno ũrĩ iruta rĩa mehia make. Ndakawĩkĩre maguta kana ũbani, nĩ ũndũ rĩu nĩ iruta rĩa kũhoroherio mehia.
12 He is to bring it to the priest, who shall take a handful from it as a memorial portion and burn it on the altar atop the offerings made by fire to the LORD; it is a sin offering.
Nĩakaũtwarĩra mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai, nake arũme ngundi yaguo ũtuĩke gĩcunjĩ gĩa kĩririkano acooke aũcinĩre kĩgongona-inĩ igũrũ rĩa maruta marĩa marutĩirwo Jehova na mwaki. Rĩu nĩrĩo iruta rĩa kũhoroherio mehia.
13 In this way the priest will make atonement for him for any of these sins he has committed, and he will be forgiven. The remainder will belong to the priest, like the grain offering.”
Ũguo nĩguo mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai akaahoroheria mũndũ ũcio rĩĩhia o rĩothe rĩa macio angĩkorwo ekĩte, nake nĩakarekerwo. Matigari ma iruta rĩu magaatuĩka ma mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai, o ta ũrĩa gwĩkagwo hĩndĩ ya iruta rĩa mũtu.’”
14 Then the LORD said to Moses,
Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ:
15 “If someone acts unfaithfully and sins unintentionally against any of the LORD’s holy things, he must bring his guilt offering to the LORD: an unblemished ram from the flock, of proper value in silver shekels according to the sanctuary shekel; it is a guilt offering.
“Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa mũndũ angĩhĩtia na ehie atekwenda wĩhia ũkoniĩ indo iria nyamũrĩre Jehova-rĩ, nĩakarehera Jehova ndũrũme ĩrĩ iruta rĩa irĩhi rĩa ihĩtia kuuma rũũru-inĩ, ndũrũme ĩtarĩ na kaũũgũ, ĩkorwo ĩrĩ ya thogora ũrĩa mũiganĩru wa betha, kũringana na cekeri ya handũ-harĩa-haamũre. Rĩu nĩrĩo iruta rĩa ihĩtia.
16 Regarding any holy thing he has harmed, he must make restitution by adding a fifth of its value to it and giving it to the priest, who will make atonement on his behalf with the ram as a guilt offering, and he will be forgiven.
No nginya arĩhe irĩhi nĩ ũndũ wa ũndũ ũrĩa aagĩte kũhingia ũkoniĩ indo iria nyamũre, na ongerere gĩcunjĩ gĩa ithano gĩa thogora wa kĩndũ kĩu ararĩha, na acinengere mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ciothe, ũrĩa ũkamũhoroheria na ndũrũme ĩyo ya iruta rĩa mahĩtia, nake nĩakarekerwo.
17 If someone sins and violates any of the LORD’s commandments even though he was unaware, he is guilty and shall bear his punishment.
“Mũndũ angĩĩhia eke ũndũ ũrĩa mũkananie thĩinĩ wa maathani mothe ma Jehova o na angĩkorwo ndaraũmenya-rĩ, nĩagacookererwo nĩ mahĩtia macio ekĩte.
18 He is to bring to the priest an unblemished ram of proper value from the flock as a guilt offering. Then the priest will make atonement on his behalf for the wrong he has committed in ignorance, and he will be forgiven.
Nĩakarehera mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ndũrũme ya iruta rĩa mahĩtia kuuma rũũru-inĩ, ndũrũme ĩtarĩ na kaũũgũ na ya thogora ũrĩa wagĩrĩire. Ũguo nĩguo mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai akaahoroheria mũndũ ũcio nĩ ũndũ wa mahĩtia marĩa ekĩte atekwenda, nake nĩakarekerwo.
19 It is a guilt offering; he was certainly guilty before the LORD.”
Rĩu nĩrĩo iruta rĩa mahĩtia; ti-itherũ mũndũ ũcio nĩahĩtĩirie Jehova.”
