< Numbers 6 >
1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
Nake Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ,
2 Speak to the children of Israel, and thou shalt say to them: When a man, or woman, shall make a vow to be sanctified, and will consecrate themselves to the Lord:
“Arĩria andũ a Isiraeli, ũmeere atĩrĩ: ‘Mũndũ mũrũme kana mũndũ-wa-nja angĩenda kwĩhĩta mwĩhĩtwa wa mwanya, ũrĩ mwĩhĩtwa wa kwĩyamũrĩra Jehova atuĩke Mũnaziri,
3 They shall abstain from wine, and from every thing that may make a man drunk. They shall not drink vinegar of wine, or of any other drink, nor any thing that is pressed out of the grape: nor shall they eat grapes either fresh or dried.
no nginya atige kũnyua ndibei o na indo iria ingĩ ngagatu cia kũnyua, na ndakananyue thiki ĩthondeketwo kuuma kũrĩ ndibei kana kĩndũ kĩngĩ kĩgagatu gĩa kũnyua. Ndakananyue maaĩ ma thabibũ, kana arĩe thabibũ, kana thabibũ iria nyũmithie.
4 All the days that they are consecrated to the Lord by vow: they shall eat nothing that cometh of the vineyard, from the raisin even to the kernel.
Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa yothe arĩkoragwo arĩ Mũnaziri, ndakanarĩe kĩndũ gĩa kuuma he mũthabibũ, irĩ mbegũ kana makoni.
5 All the time of his separation no razor shall pass over his head, until the day be fulfilled of his consecration to the Lord. He shall be holy, and shall let the hair of his head grow.
“‘Ihinda rĩothe rĩa mwĩhĩtwa ũcio wa kwĩyamũra, ndakanenjwo mũtwe. No nginya aikarage arĩ mũtheru o nginya ihinda rĩake rĩa kwĩyamũrĩra Jehova rĩthire; no nginya areke njuĩrĩ cia mũtwe wake ikũre iraihe.
6 All the time of his consecration he shall not go in to any dead,
Ihinda rĩu rĩothe eyamũrĩire Jehova ndakanakuhĩrĩrie kĩimba.
7 Neither shall he make himself unclean, even for his father, or for his mother, or for his brother, or for his sister, when they die, because the consecration of his God is upon his head.
O na ithe, kana nyina, kana mũrũ wa nyina, kana mwarĩ wa nyina angĩkua, ndakanethaahie nĩ ũndũ wao, tondũ arĩ na rũũri rwa kwĩyamũrĩra Ngai mũtwe.
8 All the days of his separation he shall be holy to the Lord.
Ihinda rĩothe rĩa kwĩyamũra gwake arĩkoragwo aamũrĩirwo Jehova.
9 But if any man die suddenly before him: the head of his consecration shall be defiled: and he shall shave it forthwith on the same day of his purification, and again on the seventh day.
“‘Mũndũ angĩkua gĩkuũ kĩa narua arĩ ho, naguo ũndũ ũcio ũthaahie njuĩrĩ ĩrĩa aamũrĩte, no nginya enjwo mũtwe mũthenya wake wa gũtherio, na nĩguo wa mũgwanja.
10 And on the eighth day he shall bring two turtles, or two young pigeons to the priest in the entry of the covenant of the testimony.
Ningĩ mũthenya wa ĩnana no nginya atware ndirahũgĩ igĩrĩ kana tũtutuura twĩrĩ harĩ mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai hau itoonyero-inĩ rĩa Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo.
11 And the priest shall offer one for sin, and the other for a holocaust, and shall pray for him, for that he hath sinned by the dead: and he shall sanctify his head that day:
Nake mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai arute ĩmwe ĩtuĩke igongona rĩa kũhoroherio mehia, nayo ĩyo ĩngĩ ĩtuĩke nĩ iruta rĩa njino nĩguo ahoroherio, nĩ ũndũ nĩehĩtie nĩgũkorwo arĩ hamwe na kĩimba. Mũthenya o ro ũcio no nginya aamũrĩre Jehova mũtwe wake rĩngĩ.
12 And shall consecrate to the Lord the days of his separation, offering a lamb of one year for sin: yet so that the former days be made void, because his sanctification was profaned.
No nginya eyamũrĩre Jehova ihinda rĩu rĩa kwĩyamũra, na no nginya arute gatũrũme ka mwaka ũmwe gatuĩke ka igongona rĩa mahĩtia. Mĩthenya ĩrĩa mĩhĩtũku ndĩgũtarwo, tondũ nĩathaahirio ihinda rĩrĩa eyaamũrĩte.
13 This is the law of consecration. When the days which he had determined by vow shall be expired, he shall bring him to the door of the tabernacle of the covenant,
“‘Na rĩrĩ, ũyũ nĩguo watho wa Mũnaziri ihinda rĩake rĩa kwĩyamũrĩra Ngai rĩathira. Nĩakarehwo itoonyero-inĩ rĩa Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo.
14 And shall offer his oblation to the Lord: one he lamb of a year old without blemish for a holocaust, and one awe lamb of a year old without blemish for a sin offering, and one ram without blemish for a victim of peace offering,
Hau nĩho akaarehe maruta make harĩ Jehova, namo nĩ: gatũrũme ka mwaka ũmwe gatarĩ na kaũũgũ gatuĩke ka iruta rĩa njino, na kamwatĩ ka mwaka ũmwe karĩ igongona rĩa kũhoroheria mehia, na ndũrũme ĩmwe ĩtarĩ na kaũũgũ ĩrĩ iruta rĩa ũiguano,
15 A basket also of unleavened bread, tempered with oil, and wafers without leaven anointed with oil, and the libations of each:
hamwe na maruta ma mũtu na maruta ma kũnyuuo, na gĩkabũ kĩa mĩgate ĩtarĩ na ndawa ya kũimbia, na keki cia mũtu ũrĩa mũhinyu mũno ũtukanĩtio na maguta, na tũmĩgate tũhũthũ tũhakĩtwo maguta.
16 And the priest shall present them before the Lord, and shall offer both the sin offering and the holocaust.
“‘Mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩakaiga indo icio mbere ya Jehova, na acooke arute igongona rĩa kũhoroheria mehia o na iruta rĩa njino.
17 But the ram he shall immolate for a sacrifice of peace offering to the Lord, offering at the same time the basket of unleavened bread, and the libations that are due by custom.
Nĩakarehe gĩkabũ kĩu kĩa mĩgate ĩtarĩ mĩimbie na arute ndũrũme ĩyo ĩrĩ igongona rĩa ũiguano kũrĩ Jehova, hamwe na igongona rĩayo rĩa mũtu na rĩa indo cia kũnyuuo.
18 Then shall the hair of the consecration of the Nazarite, be shaved off before the door of the tabernacle of the covenant: and he shall take his hair, and lay it upon the fire, which is under the sacrifice of the peace offerings.
“‘Ningĩ hau itoonyero-inĩ rĩa Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo, Mũnaziri no nginya enjwo njuĩrĩ ĩrĩa aamũrĩte. Nĩakoya njuĩrĩ ĩyo na amĩikie mwaki-inĩ ũrĩa ũrĩ rungu rwa igongona rĩu rĩa ũiguano.
19 And shall take the boiled shoulder of the ram, and one unleavened cake out of the basket, and one unleavened wafer, and he shall deliver them into the hands of the Nazarite, after his head is shaven.
“‘Thuutha wa Mũnaziri ũcio kwenjwo njuĩrĩ yake ya kwĩyamũra, mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩ akoya kĩande gĩtherũkĩtio kĩa ndũrũme ĩyo, na keki na tũmĩgate tũrĩa tũhũthũ kuuma gĩkabũ-inĩ kĩu, cierĩ itarĩ ndawa ya kũimbia.
20 And receiving them again from him, he shall elevate them in the sight of the Lord: and they being sanctified shall belong to the priest, as the breast, which was commanded to be separated, and the shoulder. After this the Nazarite may drink wine.
Mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai acooke acithũngũthie mbere ya Jehova, ituĩke igongona rĩa gũthũngũthio; nĩ nyamũre, na nĩ cia mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai, hamwe na gĩthũri kĩrĩa gĩthũngũthĩtio, o na kĩero kĩrĩa kĩrutĩtwo. Thuutha ũcio Mũnaziri no anyue ndibei.
21 This is the law of the Nazarite, when he hath vowed his oblation to the Lord in the time of his consecration, besides those things which his hand shall find, according to that which he had vowed in his mind, so shall he do for the fulfilling of his sanctification.
“‘Ũcio nĩguo watho wa Mũnaziri ũrĩa wĩhĩtaga kũrutĩra Jehova indo kũringana na ũrĩa eyaamũrĩte, hamwe na kĩrĩa kĩngĩ gĩothe angĩhota kũruta. No nginya ahingie mwĩhĩtwa ũrĩa ehĩtĩte, kũringana na watho wa Mũnaziri.’”
22 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ,
23 Say to Aaron and his sons: Thus shall you bless the children of Israel, and you shall say to them:
“Ĩra Harũni na ariũ ake atĩrĩ, ‘Ũũ nĩguo mũrĩrathimaga andũ a Isiraeli. Meragei atĩrĩ:
24 The Lord bless thee, and keep thee.
“‘“Jehova arokũrathima, na akũmenyagĩrĩre;
25 The Lord shew his face to thee, and have mercy on thee.
Jehova arotũma ũthiũ wake ũkwarĩre, na agũkinyagĩrie wega wake;
26 The Lord turn his countenance to thee, and give thee peace.
Jehova arogũtiirĩra gĩthiithi gĩake, na akũhe thayũ.”’
27 And they shall invoke my name upon the children of Israel, and I will bless them.
“Nĩ ũndũ ũcio athĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩmarĩgwetaga rĩĩtwa rĩakwa kũrĩ andũ a Isiraeli, na niĩ nĩndĩĩmarathimaga.”
