< Leviticus 27 >
1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ,
2 Speak to the children of Israel, and thou shalt say to them: The man that shall have made a vow, and promised his soul to God, shall give the price according to estimation.
“Arĩria andũ a Isiraeli, ũmeere atĩrĩ: ‘Mũndũ o wothe angĩkeehĩta mwĩhĩtwa wa mwanya wa kwamũrĩra Jehova andũ, na ũndũ wa kũruta indo iria ciiganĩire iruta rĩu,
3 If it be a man from twenty years old unto sixty years old, he shall give fifty sides of silver, after the weight of the sanctuary:
nĩũgaatua irĩhi rĩa mũndũ mũrũme wa kuuma mĩaka mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ nginya mĩaka mĩrongo ĩtandatũ rĩkorwo rĩrĩ cekeri mĩrongo ĩtano cia betha, kũringana na cekeri ya handũ-harĩa-haamũre,
na aakorwo nĩ mũndũ-wa-nja, ũgaatua irĩhi rĩkorwo rĩrĩ cekeri mĩrongo ĩtatũ.
5 But from the fifth year until the twentieth, a man shall give twenty sicles: a woman ten.
Aakorwo nĩ mũndũ wa kuuma mĩaka ĩtano nginya mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ, ũgaatua irĩhi rĩa mũndũ mũrũme rĩtuĩke nĩ cekeri mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ, na irĩhi rĩa mũndũ-wa-nja nĩ cekeri ikũmi.
6 From one month until the fifth year. for a male shall be given five sides: for a female three.
Aakorwo nĩ mũndũ wa kuuma mweri ũmwe nginya mĩaka ĩtano, ũgaatua irĩhi rĩa kahĩĩ rĩtuĩke nĩ cekeri ithano cia betha, na irĩhi rĩa kairĩtu nĩ cekeri ithatũ cia betha.
7 A man that is sixty years old or upward, shall give fifteen aisles: a woman ten.
Aakorwo nĩ mũndũ wa mĩaka mĩrongo ĩtandatũ kana makĩrĩa, ũgaatua irĩhi rĩa mũndũ mũrũme rĩtuĩke nĩ cekeri ikũmi na ithano, na rĩa mũndũ-wa-nja nĩ cekeri ikũmi.
8 If he be poor, and not able to pay tile estimation, he shall stand before tile priest: and as much as he shall value him at, and see him able to pay, so much shall he give.
Angĩkorwo mũndũ ũrĩa wĩhĩtĩte mwĩhĩtwa nĩ mũthĩĩni mũno ndaangĩhota kũrĩha irĩhi rĩrĩa rĩtuĩtwo, nĩagatwara mũndũ ũcio kũrĩ mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai, ũrĩa ũgaatua irĩhi rĩrĩa mũndũ ũcio wĩhĩtĩte mwĩhĩtwa angĩhota kũrĩha.
9 But a beast that may be sacrificed to the Lord, if ally one shall vow, shall be holy,
“‘Angĩkorwo kĩndũ kĩrĩa eeranĩire na mwĩhĩtwa nĩ nyamũ ĩngĩĩtĩkĩrĩka ĩrĩ iruta kũrĩ Jehova, nyamũ ta ĩyo ĩheanĩtwo kũrĩ Jehova ĩrĩtuĩkaga nĩ nyamũre.
10 And cannot be changed, that is to say, neither a better for a worse, nor a worse for a better. And if he shall change it: both that which was changed, and that for which it was changed, shall be consecrated to the Lord.
Ndakanamĩkũũranie kana amĩgarũranie, aige ĩrĩa njega ithenya rĩa ĩrĩa njũru, kana aige ĩrĩa njũru ithenya rĩa ĩrĩa njega; angĩgakũũrania nyamũ ĩyo na ĩngĩ, cierĩ ĩyo ya mbere na ĩyo ya gũkũũranio nĩigatuĩka nyamũre.
11 An unclean beast, which cannot be sacrificed to the Lord, if my man shall vow, shall be brought before the priest:
Angĩkorwo kĩndũ kĩu ehĩtĩte kũruta nĩ nyamũ ĩrĩ na thaahu, ĩrĩa ĩtangĩĩtĩkĩrĩka ĩrĩ iruta kũrĩ Jehova, nyamũ ĩyo no nginya ĩtwarĩrwo mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai,
12 Who judging whether it be good or bad, shall set the price:
ũrĩa ũgaatua kana nĩ njega kana ti njega. Thogora ũrĩa mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai agaatua, ũcio nĩguo ũgaatuĩka thogora wayo.
13 Which if he that offereth it will give, he shall add above the estimation the fifth part.
Angĩkorwo mwene no ende gũkũũra nyamũ ĩyo, no nginya ongerere gĩcunjĩ kĩngĩ gĩa ithano harĩ thogora ũrĩa ũtuĩtwo.
14 If a man shall vow his house, and sanctify it to the Lord, the priest shall consider it, whether it be good or bad, and it shall be sold according to the price, which he shall appoint.
“‘Mũndũ angĩamũra nyũmba yake ĩrĩ kĩndũ kĩamũrĩirwo Jehova, mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩagatua itua kana nĩ njega kana ti njega. Thogora ũrĩa mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai agaatua, ũcio nĩguo ũgaatuĩka thogora wayo.
15 But if he that vowed, will redeem it, he shall give the fifth part of the estimation over and above, and shall have the house.
Mũndũ ũrĩa wamũrĩte nyũmba yake angĩmĩkũũra-rĩ, no nginya ongerere gĩcunjĩ kĩngĩ gĩa ithano gĩa thogora wayo, nayo nyũmba ĩyo nĩĩgatuĩka yake rĩngĩ.
16 And if he vow the field of his possession, and consecrate it to the Lord, the price shall be rated according to the measure of the seed. If the ground be sowed with thirty bushels of barley, let it be sold for fifty sides of silver.
“‘Angĩkorwo mũndũ nĩakamũrĩra Jehova gĩcunjĩ kĩa mũgũnda wa nyũmba yao, thogora waguo ũgaatuuo kũringana na mbeũ iria ingĩhaandwo, nacio nĩ cekeri mĩrongo ĩtano cia betha, iria arĩ kĩbaba kĩmwe kĩa omeri ya mbeũ cia cairi.
17 If he vow his field immediately from the year of jubilee that is beginning, as much as it may be worth, at so much it shall be rated.
Angĩkaamũra mũgũnda wake Mwaka-inĩ wa Jubilii, thogora ũrĩa ũtuĩtwo nĩguo ũgaatuĩka thogora waguo.
18 But if some time after, the priest shall reckon the money according to the number of years that remain until the jubilee, and the price shall be abated.
No angĩamũra mũgũnda wake thuutha wa Jubilii, mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩagatua thogora kũringana na mĩaka ĩrĩa ĩtigarĩte Jubilii ĩrĩa ĩngĩ ĩgĩgaakinya, naguo thogora waguo nĩũkanyihanyiihio.
19 And if he that had vowed, will redeem his field, he shall add the fifth part of the money of the estimation, and shall possess it.
Mũndũ ũcio wamũrĩte mũgũnda wake angĩenda kũũkũũra, nĩakongerera gĩcunjĩ kĩngĩ gĩa ithano harĩ thogora waguo, mũgũnda ũcio ũcooke ũtuĩke wake rĩngĩ.
20 And if he will not redeem it, but it be sold to any other man, he that vowed it, may not redeem it any more:
No rĩrĩ, angĩkorwo ndegũkũũra mũgũnda ũcio, kana aakorwo nĩawendeirie mũndũ ũngĩ, mũgũnda ũcio ndũrĩ hĩndĩ ũgaakũũrwo o na rĩ.
21 For when the day of jubilee cometh, it shall be sanctified to the Lord, and as a possession consecrated, pertaineth to the right of the priests.
Rĩrĩa mũgũnda ũcio ũkaarekererio Mwaka-inĩ wa Jubilii, nĩũgatuĩka mwamũre, o ta mũgũnda wamũrĩirwo Jehova; ũgaatuĩka mũgũnda wa athĩnjĩri-Ngai.
22 If a field that was bought, and not of a man’s ancestors’ possession, be sanctified to the Lord,
“‘Ningĩ mũndũ angĩkaamũrĩra Jehova mũgũnda ũrĩa agũrĩte, na ti mũgũnda wa nyũmba yao,
23 The priest shall reckon the price according to the number of years: unto the jubilee: and he that had vowed, shall give that to the Lord.
mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩagatua thogora waguo nginya Mwaka wa Jubilii, nake mũndũ ũcio nĩakarĩha irĩhi rĩu mũthenya ũcio taarĩ kĩndũ kĩamũrĩirwo Jehova.
24 But in the jubilee, it shall return to the former owner, who had sold it, and had it in the lot of his possession.
Mwaka-inĩ wa Jubilii, mũgũnda ũcio nĩũgacookerera mwene ũrĩa wamwendeirie, ũrĩa warĩ mwene mũgũnda ũcio.
25 All estimation shall be made according to the side of the sanctuary. A sicle hath twenty obols.
Thogora wothe ũrĩtuagwo kũringana na cekeri ya handũ-harĩa-haamũre, nacio nĩ geera mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ harĩ cekeri ĩmwe.
26 The firstborn, which belong to the Lord, no man may sanctify and vow: whether it be bullock, or sheep, they are the Lord’s.
“‘Na rĩrĩ, gũtirĩ mũndũ ũngĩamũrĩra Jehova irigithathi rĩa nyamũ, nĩ ũndũ marigithathi mothe nĩ ma Jehova; arĩ ndegwa, kana ngʼondu, icio nĩ cia Jehova.
27 And if it be an unclean beast, he that offereth it shall redeem it, according to thy estimation, and shall add the fifth part of the price. If he will not redeem it, it shall be sold to another for how much soever it was estimated by thee.
Angĩkorwo nĩ nyamũ ĩmwe ya iria irĩ thaahu, no amĩgũre na thogora ũrĩa ĩtuĩrĩirwo, ongerere gĩcunjĩ kĩngĩ gĩa ithano harĩ thogora ũcio. Aakorwo ndekũmĩkũũra, nyamũ ĩyo nĩĩkeendio na thogora ũrĩa ũtuĩtwo.
28 Any thing that is devoted to the Lord, whether it be man, or beast, or field, shall not be sold, neither may it be redeemed. Whatsoever is once consecrated shall be holy of holies to the Lord.
“‘No gũtirĩ kĩndũ kĩa mũndũ kĩrĩa aamũrĩire Jehova, arĩ mũndũ, kana nyamũ, kana mũgũnda wa nyũmba yao, kĩngĩendio kana gĩkũũrwo; indo ciothe ciamũrĩirwo Jehova nĩ nyamũre harĩ Jehova.
29 And any consecration that is offered by man, shall not be redeemed, but dying shall die.
“‘Na rĩrĩ, gũtirĩ mũndũ wamũrĩirwo kũũragwo ũngĩkũũrwo; no nginya ooragwo.
30 All tithes of the land, whether of corn, or of the fruits of trees, are the Lord’s, and are sanctified to him.
“‘Gĩcunjĩ gĩa ikũmi kĩa indo ciothe cia kuuma mũgũnda, arĩ ngano ya mũgũnda kana maciaro ma mĩtĩ, nĩ kĩa Jehova; gĩcunjĩ kĩu kĩamũrĩirwo Jehova.
31 And if any man will redeem his tithes, he shall add the fifth part of them.
Mũndũ angĩgakũũra gĩcunjĩ gĩake gĩa ikũmi, no nginya akongerera gĩcunjĩ kĩngĩ gĩa ithano harĩ thogora ũrĩa ũtuĩtwo.
32 Of all the tithes of oxen, and sheep, and goats, that pass under the shepherd’s rod, every tenth that cometh shall be sanctified to the Lord.
Gĩcunjĩ gĩa ikũmi gĩothe kĩa rũũru rwa ngʼombe kana rwa mbũri, nyamũ ya ikũmi yothe ĩrĩa ĩhĩtũkagĩra rungu rwa rũthanju rwa mũrĩithi nĩĩkamũrĩrwo Jehova.
33 It shall not be chosen neither good nor bad, neither shall it be changed for another. If any man change it: both that which was changed, and that for which it was changed, shall be sanctified to the Lord, and shall not be redeemed.
Mũndũ ndagathuure ĩrĩa njega kana ĩrĩa njũru, kana akũũranie. Angĩgakũũrania nyamũ ĩyo na ĩngĩ, cierĩ, ya mbere na ĩyo ya gũkũũranio, nĩ igaatuĩka nyamũre, na icio itingĩkũũrwo.’”
34 These are the precepts which the Lord commanded Moses for the children of Israel in mount Sinai.
Macio nĩmo maathani marĩa Jehova aaheire Musa Kĩrĩma-inĩ gĩa Sinai makoniĩ andũ a Isiraeli.
