< Numbers 6 >
1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis sị,
2 “Speak to the sons of Israel, and you shall say to them: A man or a woman, when they have made a vow so that they may be sanctified, and when they are willing to consecrate themselves to the Lord,
Gwa ndị Izrel sị ha, “Mgbe nwoke maọbụ nwanyị ṅụrụ iyi o ji kpebie ikwe nkwa pụrụ iche nke ikewapụ onwe ya nye Onyenwe anyị dịka onye Nazirait,
3 shall abstain from wine and from anything which is able to inebriate. They shall not drink vinegar made from wine or from any other drink, nor anything pressed from the grape. They shall not eat grapes, neither fresh nor dried.
ha ga-ekewapụ onwe ha site na ịṅụ mmanya, maọbụ detụ ihe ọṅụṅụ ọbụla na-aba nʼanya ire. Ha agaghị aṅụ mmiri mkpụrụ vaịnị, ọ gaghị ata mkpụrụ vaịnị ọhụrụ maọbụ nke a mịkpọrọ amịkpọ.
4 During all the days that they are consecrated to the Lord by vow, they shall not eat whatever may be from the vineyard, from raisins, even to grape seeds.
Oge ahụ niile ọ bụ onye Nazirait, ọ gaghị eri ihe ọbụla sitere na mkpụrụ osisi vaịnị maọbụ mkpụrụ ya maọbụ okpokoro azụ ya.
5 During all the time of his separation, no razor shall pass over his head, even until the completion of the day when he is consecrated to the Lord. He shall be holy, letting the hair of his head grow long.
“‘Nʼime oge niile nke imezu nkwa ikewapụ onwe ya nye Onyenwe anyị, agụba agaghị agabiga ya nʼisi. Ọ ga-anọgide bụrụ onye dị nsọ tutu ruo oge nkwa ikewapụ onwe ya nye Onyenwe anyị zuru. Nʼihi nke a, ọ ga-ahapụ agịrị isi ya ka o too.
6 During all the time of his consecration, he shall not enter because of a death,
“‘Nʼime oge niile nke imezu nkwa ikewapụ onwe ya nye Onyenwe anyị, ọ gaghị aga nso mmadụ ọbụla nwụrụ anwụ,
7 nor shall he contaminate himself, even over the funeral of his father, or his mother, or his brother, or his sister. For the consecration of his God is upon his head.
ọ bụladị na nna ya, maọbụ nne ya, maọbụ nwanne ya nwoke, maọbụ nwanne ya nwanyị anwụọ. Ọ gaghị emerụ onwe ya nʼihi ha, nʼihi na akara ikewapụ onwe ya iche nye Chineke dị ya nʼisi.
8 During all the days of his separation, he shall be holy to the Lord.
Nʼoge niile nke ikewapụ onwe ya, onye e doro nsọ nye Onyenwe anyị ka ọ bụ.
9 But if anyone will have died unexpectedly before him, the head of his consecration shall be polluted, and he shall shave it in that very place, on the same day of his purification, and again on the seventh day.
“‘Ọ bụrụ na mmadụ anwụọ na mberede nʼakụkụ onye nazirait, si otu a merụọ agịrị isi ya nke na-egosi ido nsọ ya, ọ ghaghị ịkpacha isi ya nʼụbọchị nke asaa bụ ụbọchị ime ka ọ dị ọcha.
10 Then, on the eighth day, he shall offer two turtledoves or two young pigeons, to the priest at the entrance to the covenant of the testimony.
Nʼụbọchị nke ọzọ ya, bụ nʼụbọchị nke asatọ. Ọ ghaghị iwetara onye nchụaja nduru abụọ maọbụ ụmụ kpalakwukwu abụọ, nʼọnụ ụzọ ụlọ nzute ahụ.
11 And the priest shall effect one for sin, and the other as a holocaust, and he shall pray for him, because he has sinned on account of the dead. And he shall sanctify his head on that day.
Onye nchụaja ahụ ga-ewere otu nʼime ha chụọrọ ya aja mmehie. Ọ ga-ewerekwa nnụnụ nke ọzọ chụọrọ ya aja nsure ọkụ maka ikpuchiri onye ahụ nwere akara ido nsọ mmehie ya, bụ nke o mere site nʼịnọ onye nwụrụ anwụ nso. Ọ ga-edokwa isi ya nsọ ọzọ nʼụbọchị ahụ.
12 And he shall consecrate to the Lord the days of his separation, offering a one-year-old lamb for sin, yet in such a manner that the former days will be made null and void, because his sanctification was polluted.
Ọ ga-ekewapụ onwe ya nye Onyenwe anyị dịka o mere na mmalite ụbọchị niile nke ido nsọ ya. Wetakwa otu nwa ebule gbara otu afọ maka aja ikpe ọmụma. A gaghị agụnyere ya ụbọchị ndị ahụ niile gafere tupu o merụọ onwe ya, nʼihi na o merụrụ onwe ya mgbe ọ nọ ọnọdụ imezu nkwa nkewapụ.
13 This is the law of consecration. When the days that he had decreed by vow have been completed, he shall bring him to the door of the tabernacle of the covenant,
“‘Nke a bụ iwu dịrị onye Nazirait mgbe oge ido onwe ya nsọ nye Onyenwe anyị zuru. A ga-eduru ya bịa nʼọnụ ụzọ ụlọ nzute ahụ.
14 and he shall offer his oblation to the Lord: an immaculate one-year-old male lamb as a holocaust, and an immaculate one-year-old female lamb for sin, and an immaculate ram, a peace-offering victim,
Nʼebe ahụ ka ọ ga-anọ chee onyinye ya ndị a nʼihu Onyenwe anyị: nwa ebule na-enweghị ntụpọ, gbara otu afọ, maka aja nsure ọkụ na otu nwa nne atụrụ na-enweghị ntụpọ gbara otu afọ maka aja mmehie, na otu ebule ahụ zuruoke maka aja udo,
15 also, a basket of unleavened bread, which has been sprinkled with oil, and cakes without leaven, anointed with oil, as well as the libations of each one.
tinyere aja mkpụrụ ọka, na aja ihe ọṅụṅụ na otu nkata achịcha a na-ejighị ihe na-eko achịcha mee, na achịcha e ji ezi ụtụ ọka a gwara mmanụ oliv mee, na achịcha mbadamba na-ekoghị eko nke e tere mmanụ oliv.
16 And the priest shall offer them before the Lord, and he shall perform both the sin offering and the holocaust.
“‘Onye nchụaja ahụ ga-eche ihe aja ndị a niile nʼihu Onyenwe anyị, chụọ aja mmehie na aja nsure ọkụ.
17 Yet truly, the ram he shall immolate as a peace-offering victim to the Lord, offering at the same time the basket of unleavened bread, and the libations which are required by custom.
Ọ ga-eji nwa ebule ahụ chụọ aja udo nye Onyenwe anyị, ya na nkata achịcha na-ekoghị eko ahụ. Ọ ga-achụkwa aja mkpụrụ ọka, na aja ihe ọṅụṅụ.
18 Then the Nazarite shall be shaved of the long hair of his consecration, before the door of the tabernacle of the covenant. And he shall take his hair, and he shall place it upon the fire, which is under the sacrifice of the peace offerings.
“‘Mgbe ahụ, onye ahụ doro onwe ya nsọ nye Onyenwe anyị ga-akpụchapụ agịrị isi ya nke bụ ihe na-egosi ido nsọ ya. Ọ ga-eme nke a na mbata ọnụ ụzọ ụlọ nzute ahụ. Emesịa, ọ ga-etinye agịrị isi ahụ ọ kpụchapụtara nʼọkụ ahụ dị nʼokpuru aja udo ahụ.
19 And he shall take the cooked shoulder of the ram, and one twist of bread without leaven from the basket, and one unleavened cake, and he shall deliver them into the hands of the Nazarite, after his head has been shaven.
“‘Mgbe a kpụchasịrị onye ahụ agịrị isi ya, nke na-egosi ido nsọ ya, onye nchụaja ga-ewere ubu aka ebule ahụ e sịrị esi, otu ogbe achịcha na-ekoghị eko na otu mbadamba achịcha na-ekoghị eko site na nkata ahụ, tinye ha niile nʼaka onye ahụ.
20 And receiving them again from him, he shall elevate them in the sight of the Lord. And having been sanctified, these shall be for the priest, as also the breast, which was ordered to be separated, and the leg. After this, the Nazarite is able to drink wine.
Onye nchụaja ahụ nʼoge a, ga-ewere aja ndị a fufee ha nʼihu Onyenwe anyị dịka aja mfufe. Ha niile ga-abụ ihe nsọ nye onye nchụaja ahụ, tinyere obi anụ ahụ e fufere efufe, na apata anụ ahụ e chere nʼihu Onyenwe anyị. Mgbe nke a gasịrị, onye ahụ doro onwe ya nsọ nwere onwe ya ịṅụ mmanya.
21 This is the law of the Nazarite, when he has vowed his oblation to the Lord in the time of his consecration, aside from those things which his hand shall find. According to what he had vowed in his mind, so shall he do, to the perfection of his sanctification.”
“‘Nke a bụ iwu dịrị onye ọ bụla kpebiri ikewapụ onwe ya nye Onyenwe anyị dịka onye Nazirait. Onyinye onye ahụ ga-enye ga-abụ dịka nkwa ido nsọ ya si dị, tinyere ihe ndị ọzọ ha nwere ike inye. Onye dị otu a aghaghị imezu nkwa ọbụla o kwere dịka iwu metụtara onye Nazirait si dị.’”
22 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis okwu sị,
23 “Say to Aaron and his sons: Thus shall you bless the sons of Israel, and you shall say to them:
“Gwa Erọn na ụmụ ya ndị ikom sị, ‘Otu a ka unu ga-esi gọzie ndị Izrel. Unu ga-asị ha,
24 ‘May the Lord bless you and keep you.
“‘“Onyenwe anyị gọzie unu ma chebe unu,
25 May the Lord reveal his face to you and take pity on you.
Onyenwe anyị mee ka ihu ya mụkwasị unu, ma meere unu amara,
26 May the Lord turn his countenance toward you and grant peace to you.’
Onyenwe anyị chee ihu ya nʼebe unu nọ, nyekwa unu udo.”’
27 And they shall invoke my name over the sons of Israel, and I will bless them.”
“Otu a ka ha ga-esi kwupụta aha m nye ụmụ Izrel. Mụ onwe m ga-agọzikwa ha.”
