< Leviticus 21 >

1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, Speak to the priests the sons of Aaron, and you shall tell them [that] they shall not defile themselves in their nation for the dead,
Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya, “Wuo kod jodolo ma yawuot Harun, kendo iwachnegi ni: ‘Kik jadolo tim gimoro ne ringre jadhodgi moro amora motho ma dimi obed mogak,
2 but [they may mourn] for a relative who is very near to them, for a father and mother, and sons and daughters, for a brother,
makmana kaponi ngʼat ma othoni en watne manie ot kaka min kata wuon kata wuode kata nyare kata owadgi,
3 and for a virgin sister that is near to one, that is not espoused to a man; for these one shall defile himself.
kata nyamin-gi manie lwete mapok okendi. Nyamin-gi mapok okendino kende ema nyalo miyo obed mogak.
4 He shall not defile himself suddenly amongst his people to profane himself.
Kik obed mogak kuom mulo ringre joma otho ma gin wedene kuom kend.
5 And you shall not shave your head for the dead with a baldness on the top; and they shall not shave their beard, neither shall they make gashes on their flesh.
“‘Jodolo ok oyienegi mondo giliel wigi, kata tito yie tikgi bende kik gisar dendgi.
6 They shall be holy to their God, and they shall not profane the name of their God; for they offer the sacrifices of the Lord as the gifts of their God, and they shall be holy.
Nyaka gibed jomaler e nyim Nyasachgi, kendo kik gicha nying Nyasachgi. Nikech gin ema gichiwo misengini miwangʼo e mach ni Jehova Nyasaye, ma en chiemb Nyasachgi, omiyo nyaka gibed maler.
7 They shall not take a woman who is a harlot and profaned, or a woman put away from her husband; for he is holy to the Lord his God.
“‘Jodolo ok oyienegi kendo nyako mochot kata nyako mosewere gi chwore, nikech jodolo nyaka bed maler e nyim Nyasachgi.
8 And you shall hallow him; he offers the gifts of the Lord your God: he shall be holy, for I the Lord that sanctify them [am] holy.
Kwan-giuru kaka jomaler, nikech gin ema gichiwo chiemo ni Nyasachu. Kawgiuru kaka jomaler nikech an Jehova Nyasaye aler; an mamiyo ubedo maler.
9 And if the daughter of a priest should be profaned to go a whoring, she profanes the name of her father: she shall be burnt with fire.
“‘Ka nyar jadolo olokore ochot, to nyakoni okuodo wi wuon-gi, omiyo nyaka wangʼe gi mach.
10 And the priest that is chief amongst his brethren, the oil having been poured upon the head of the anointed one, and he having been consecrated to put on the garments, shall not take the mitre off his head, and shall not rend his garments:
“‘Jadolo maduongʼ e kind owetene, kendo moseol mor pwodhruok e wiye, kendo owal mondo orwak lep dolo, kik owe wiye obed mogar, kata kik orwak law moyiech.
11 neither shall he go in to any dead body, neither shall he defile himself for his father or his mother.
Jadolono ok oyiene donjo e ot ma ngʼato othoe. Kik obed mogak kata bedni ngʼatno en wuon mare kata min mare,
12 And he shall not go forth out of the sanctuary, and he shall not profane the sanctuary of his God, because the holy anointing oil of God [is] upon him: I [am] the Lord.
kata kik owuogi koa kama ler mar lemo mar Nyasache, kata miyo kanyo bedo mogak, nikech en ngʼama owal kendo owir gi mor pwodhruok mar Nyasache. An e Jehova Nyasaye.
13 He shall take for a wife a virgin of his own tribe.
“‘Nyako mokendo nyaka bed nyako ngili.
14 But a widow, or one that is put away, or profaned, or a harlot, these he shall not take; but he shall take for a wife a virgin of his own people.
Kik okend dhako ma chwore otho, kata dhako mowere gi chwore, kata dhako mochot, makmana nyako ngili,
15 And he shall not profane his seed amongst his people: I [am] the Lord that sanctifies him.
mondo omi kik onywol nyithindo mogak e kind ogandane. An e Jehova Nyasaye mamiyo obedo maler.’”
16 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya,
17 Say to Aaron, A man of your tribe throughout your generations, who shall have a blemish on him, shall not draw near to offer the gifts of his God.
“Nyis Harun ni: ‘Kuom tiengeu duto, onge ngʼama ongʼol ma oyiene mondo ochiw chiemo ni Nyasache.
18 No man who has a blemish on him shall draw near; a man blind, lame, with his nose disfigured, or his ears cut,
Ngʼato angʼata man-gi songa kik sud machiegni gi Nyasaye, obed ni en muofu kata rangʼol, kata ma dende kamoro otimo mbala,
19 a man who has a broken hand or a broken foot,
kata ka tiende kata bade ongʼol,
20 or humpbacked, or blear-eyed, or that has lost his eye-lashes, or a man who has a malignant ulcer, or tetter, or one that has lost a testicle.
kata ka en rakuom kata othwogo, kata ka en rachiero, kata ka wangʼe chwero pi, kata ka en gi adhola monyaa kata ka en bwoch.
21 Whoever of the seed of Aaron the priest has a blemish on him, shall not draw near to offer sacrifices to your God, because he has a blemish on him; he shall not draw near to offer the gifts of God.
Nyakwar Harun moro amora man-gi songa kik sud machiegni mar timo ne Jehova Nyasaye misango miwangʼo. Nikech en gi songa ok onego osud machiegni mondo ochiw chiemo ne Nyasache.
22 The gifts of God [are] most holy, and he shall eat of the holy things.
Onyalo chamo chiemb Nyasache, bedni ogol chiemono kuom gik maler kata kuom gik maler moloyo;
23 Only he shall not approach the veil, and he shall not draw near to the altar, because he has a blemish; and he shall not profane the sanctuary of his God, for I am the Lord that sanctifies them.
to nikech ngʼol mare ok onego osud machiegni gi Pasia kata gi kendo mar misango, nikech dipo ka omiyo kara maler mar lemo obedo mogak nimar en gi songa. An e Jehova Nyasaye mapwodhogi.’”
24 And Moses spoke to Aaron and his sons, and to all the children of Israel.
Kuom mano Musa nonyiso Harun gi yawuote kod jo-Israel duto wachno.
