< Leviticus 5 >
1 If a soul will have sinned, and heard the voice of one testifying under oath, and he is a witness because either he has seen it himself, or he is aware of it: if he does not reveal it, he shall carry his 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 The soul that will have touched anything unclean, either that which has been killed by a beast, or that which has died on its own, or any other creeping thing, and will have forgotten its uncleanness, he is guilty and has committed a transgression.
“‘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 And if he will have touched anything from the uncleanness of man, according to every kind of impurity by which he may be defiled, and having forgotten it, afterwards realizes it, he shall be guilty of committing a transgression.
“‘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 The soul who swears and offers from his own lips that he would do either evil or good, and who will have bound the same with an oath and with his own words, and, having forgotten it, afterwards understands his transgression,
“‘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 let him do penance for his sin,
“‘Rĩrĩa mũndũ ahĩtĩtie na njĩra ĩmwe ya macio-rĩ, no nginya oimbũre ũndũ ũrĩa ehĩtie naguo,
6 and let him offer from the flocks a female lamb or a she-goat, and the priest shall pray for him and for 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 But if he is not able to offer a beast, let him offer two turtledoves or two young pigeons to the Lord, one for sin, and the other for a holocaust.
“‘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 And he shall give them to the priest, who, offering the first for sin, shall twist back its head to the little wings, so that it adheres to the neck and is not entirely broken off.
Nĩagacirehera mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai, ũrĩa ũkaamba kũruta ĩrĩa ya iruta rĩa kũhoroherio mehia. Nĩakamĩthiora ngingo yunĩke no ndakamĩtinanie,
9 And he shall sprinkle some of its blood at the side of the altar. But whatever will remain, he shall cause it to drip down to the base, because it is for sin.
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 Yet truly, the other he shall burn as a holocaust, just as is usually done. And the priest shall pray for him, and for his sin, and he shall be released from it.
Mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩagacooka arute ĩyo ĩngĩ ĩrĩ iruta rĩa njino o ta ũrĩa gũtuĩtwo, na amũhoroherie mehia marĩa ekĩte, nake nĩakarekerwo.
11 But if his hand is unable to offer two turtledoves or two young pigeons, he shall offer, for his sin, the tenth part of an ephah of fine wheat flour. He shall not put oil in it, nor place upon it any frankincense, because it is for sin.
“‘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 And he shall deliver it to the priest, who shall take a handful of it, and shall burn it upon the altar as a memorial for him who offered it,
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 praying for him and making atonement. Yet truly, the remaining part he himself shall have as a gift.
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 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ:
15 If a soul, by mistake, shall have transgressed the ceremonies in those things that are sanctified to the Lord, he shall offer for his offense an immaculate ram from the flocks, such as can be bought for two shekels, according to the weight of the Sanctuary.
“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 And he shall make restitution for the damage that he has brought, and he shall add a fifth part more, delivering it to the priest, who shall pray for him while offering the ram, and he shall be released from it.
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 a soul will have sinned through ignorance, and will have done one of those things which the law of the Lord prohibits, and, being guilty of sin, understands his iniquity,
“Mũndũ angĩĩhia eke ũndũ ũrĩa mũkananie thĩinĩ wa maathani mothe ma Jehova o na angĩkorwo ndaraũmenya-rĩ, nĩagacookererwo nĩ mahĩtia macio ekĩte.
18 he shall offer from the flocks an immaculate ram to the priest, according to the measure and estimation of the sin, who shall pray for him, because he did it unknowingly, and he shall be released from it,
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 because by mistake he transgressed against the Lord.
Rĩu nĩrĩo iruta rĩa mahĩtia; ti-itherũ mũndũ ũcio nĩahĩtĩirie Jehova.”
