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.
“‘Ọ bụrụ na mmadụ ọbụla emehie nʼihi na ọ jụrụ ikwupụta mgbe ọ nụrụ ọkwa amaara nʼọha maka ịgba ama banyere ihe ọ hụrụ maọbụ ihe ọ maara, ọ bụ onye ikpe mara.
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.
“‘Onye na-amaghị ama metụ ihe rụrụ arụ aka, dịka ozu anụ ọbụla iwu megidere, maọbụ anụ ụlọ, maọbụ anụ ọhịa, maọbụ anụ ọbụla na-akpụ akpụ nʼala. Ọ ghọọla onye rụrụ arụ, na onye ikpe mara.
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.
Ma ọ bụrụ na ha emetụ ihe ọbụla rụrụ arụ si nʼahụ mmadụ pụta aka, ihe ọbụla ga-eme ya ka ọ hapụ ịdị ọcha, ọ bụ ezie na ha amaghị na ọ bụ ihe rụrụ arụ, mgbe ọ matara ya, ọ ga-abụ onye ikpe mara.
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,
Ọ bụrụ na mmadụ a ṅụọ iyi nzuzu, nke ga-akwagide ya ime ihe ọbụla maọbụ ihe dị mma, maọbụ ihe dị njọ, mgbe onye ahụ ghọtara na ọ bụ iyi nzuzu ka ọ ṅụrụ, ọ bụrụla onye ikpe mara.
5 let him do penance for his sin,
Onye ọbụla sitere nʼụzọ dị otu a bụrụ onye ikpe mara, ga-ekwupụta mmehie ya, dịka o si dị.
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.
Ọ ga-ewetara Onyenwe anyị nne atụrụ, maọbụ nne ewu site nʼigwe ewu na atụrụ, dịka aja ikpe ọmụma maka mmehie ha mere. Onye nchụaja ga-achụrụ ha aja mkpuchi mmehie maka mmehie ha.
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.
“‘Ọ bụrụ na o nweghị ike iweta atụrụ, ọ ga-ewetara Onyenwe anyị nduru abụọ, maọbụ kpalakwukwu abụọ, dịka ihe ikpe ọmụma mmehie ha. Otu nʼime nnụnụ ndị a ga-abụ maka aja mmehie, nke ọzọ ga-abụ maka aja nsure ọkụ.
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.
Ọ ga-eweta ha nye onye nchụaja. Onye ga-ewere nnụnụ nke mbụ chụọ aja mmehie. Ọ ga-atụbipụ olu ya, kama ọ gaghị ekewapụcha isi nnụnụ ahụ site nʼahụ ya.
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.
Ọ ga-efesa ụfọdụ ọbara aja mmehie ahụ nʼakụkụ ebe ịchụ aja, ma ọbara fọdụrụ ka ọ ga-awụsa nʼụkwụ ala ala ebe ịchụ aja. Nke a ga-abụ aja mmehie.
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.
Onye nchụaja ga-eji nnụnụ nke ọzọ chụọ aja nsure ọkụ. Ọ ga-agbaso usoro e debere maka ịchụ aja nsure ọkụ. Ọ ga-ekpuchikwara ha mmehie ha mere. A ga-agbagharakwa ha.
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.
“‘Ọ bụrụ na onye ahụ enweghị ike iweta nduru abụọ, maọbụ kpalakwukwu abụọ, ọ ga-eweta iko ọka asaa a kwọrọ nke ọma ka ọ bụrụ onyinye aja mmehie. Ọ gaghị etinye ya mmanụ oliv na ụda na-esi isi ụtọ, nʼihi na ọ bụ aja mmehie.
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,
Ha ga-ewere ya bịakwute onye nchụaja, onye ga-ekporo nke ga-eju ya aka ya dịka oke ncheta. Kpọọ ya ọkụ nʼebe ịchụ aja nke onyinye nsure ọkụ e chere nʼihu Onyenwe anyị. Nke a ga-abụkwa aja mmehie ya.
13 praying for him and making atonement. Yet truly, the remaining part he himself shall have as a gift.
Nʼụzọ dị otu a, onye nchụaja ga-achụrụ ya aja ikpuchi mmehie ya niile. A ga-agbagharakwa ya. Ụtụ ọka fọdụrụ ga-abụ nke onye nchụaja, dịka e si mee ya nʼaja onyinye mkpụrụ ọka.’”
14 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis sị,
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.
“Mgbe onye ọbụla sitere na-amaghị ama mehie, merụọ ihe nsọ niile nke Onyenwe anyị, bụrụ onye nke nʼekwesighị ntụkwasị obi nye Onyenwe anyị. Ọ ga-ewetara Onyenwe anyị otu ebule na-enweghị ntụpọ site nʼigwe anụ, dịka ọnụahịa ya si dị nʼọlaọcha, nʼusoro shekel nke ebe nsọ. Ọ bụ aja ikpe ọmụma.
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.
Ọ ga-akwụghachikwa ụgwọ ihe nsọ ndị ahụ niile nke ọ na-emezughị. Ọ ga-atụkwasị otu ụzọ nʼime ụzọ ise nke ọnụahịa ya nʼelu ya, were ha niile nye onye nchụaja. Onye nchụaja ahụ ga-ewere ebule ahụ na ihe ndị a chụọrọ ya aja mkpuchi mmehie, nʼihi ikpe ọmụma ya. A ga-agbagharakwa ya.
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,
“Ma ọ bụrụ na mmadụ ọbụla emehie, mee ihe ọbụla megidere iwu ọbụla Onyenwe anyị nyere, ọ bụ ezie na e mere mmehie a na-amaghị ama, ma ikpe mara ha, ọ ga-atakwa ahụhụ soo ya.
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,
Ọ ga-ewetara onye nchụaja ihe aja ikpe ọmụma nke bụ otu ebule na-enweghị ntụpọ site nʼigwe anụ, nke ọnụahịa ga-abụ ihe o ruru. Nʼụzọ dị otu a, onye nchụaja ga-achụrụ ya aja mkpuchi mmehie nʼihi ihe ọjọọ o mere na-amaghị ama. A ga-agbaghara ya mmehie ya.
19 because by mistake he transgressed against the Lord.
Ọ bụ aja ikpe ọmụma, nʼihi na onye mehiere megide Onyenwe anyị ka ọ bụ.”
