< Numbers 19 >

1 The Lord told Moses and Aaron,
Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa gi Harun niya,
2 “This is a legal regulation the Lord has ordered, saying, ‘Tell the Israelites to bring you a red cow without defects which has never been yoked.
“Ma e dwaro mar chik ma Jehova Nyasaye osechiko: Nyis jo-Israel mondo okel nyaroya ma silwal maonge songa kata ma ok ongʼol kendo mapok otwe e jok.
3 Hand it over to Eleazar the priest, and he will take it outside the camp and have it slaughtered before him.
Chiwe ne Eliazar jadolo; kendo nyaroyano nyaka gol oko mar kambi mi yangʼe ka oneno.
4 Eleazar the priest will put some of its blood on his finger and sprinkle it seven times towards the entrance of the Tent of Meeting.
Bangʼe Eliazar jadolo nyaka kaw rembe moko e lith lwete kendo okwoye nyadibiriyo kochiko nyim Hemb Romo.
5 Then the cow must be burned as he watches All of it is to be burned—its skin, meat, and blood, as well as its excrement.
E kinde ma pod ongʼicho nyaroyano nyaka wangʼ piende, ringe, rembe kod wen.
6 The priest shall throw cedar wood, hyssop, and crimson thread on the burning cow.
Jadolo nokaw yiende moko mag sida, owino gi usi marakwaro kendo owitgi kuom nyaroya ma wangʼno.
7 Then the priest shall wash his clothes and his body in water, and after that he may enter the camp, but he will remain unclean until the evening.
Bangʼ mano, jadolo nyaka luok lepe kendo olwokre gi pi. Bangʼe onyalo donjo e kambi, makmana ni obiro bedo mochido nyaka chop odhiambo.
8 The person who burned the cow shall also wash his clothes and his body in water, and he too will remain unclean until the evening.
Ngʼatno mowangʼo nyaroyano bende nyaka luok lepe, kendo olwokre, en bende nobed mochido nyaka chop odhiambo.
9 Then a man who is clean shall collect the ashes of the cow and keep them in a clean place outside the camp. They are to be kept by the Israelites to prepare the water of purification which is for purifying from sin.
“Ngʼat maler nochok buru mag nyaroyano kendo oketgi kar misango maler e oko mar kambi. Ginikan-gi gi dhout oganda mar jo-Israel mondo ti kodgi e pi pwodhruok; nikech en mar pwodho ji aa e richo.
10 The man who collected the ashes of the cow shall also wash his clothes, and he will remain unclean until the evening. This is a permanent rule for the Israelites and for the foreigner that lives with them.
Ngʼatno mochoko buch nyaroyano nyaka luok lepe bende, to en bende nobed mochido nyaka chop odhiambo. Ma nobedi chik mosiko ne jo-Israel kaachiel gi jopinje mamoko modak kodgi.
11 If you touch a dead body you will be unclean for seven days.
“Ngʼato angʼata momulo ringre ngʼama otho biro bedo mochido kuom ndalo abiriyo.
12 You must purify yourself with the water of purification on the third day and on the seventh day, and then you will be clean. But if you don't purify yourself on the third and seventh days, you won't be clean.
Nyaka opwodhre owuon gi pi chiengʼ mar adek kod chiengʼ mar abiriyo; eka obiro bedo maler. To ka ok opwodhore owuon chiengʼ mar adek gi chiengʼ mar abiriyo, to ok obi bedo maler.
13 If you touch a dead body and don't purify yourself you make the Tabernacle of the Lord unclean and must be expelled from Israel. You are still unclean because the water of purification hasn't been sprinkled on you, and your uncleanness remains.
Ngʼato angʼata momulo ringre ngʼama otho kendo ma ok opwodhore owuon ochido hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye. Ngʼatno nyaka gol oko mar Israel. Nikech pi mar pwodhruok pod ok okir kuome, ochido; kendo chidono odongʼ kuome.
14 The following regulation applies when a person dies in a tent. Everyone who comes into the tent and everyone who is already in the tent will be unclean for seven days.
“Chik momako ngʼama otho e hema ema: Ngʼato angʼata modonjo ei hema kendo ngʼato angʼata mantiere e iye nobed mochido kuom ndalo abiriyo,
15 Any open container there that doesn't have a closed lid is unclean.
kendo mikebe moro amora maonge raum moumego nobed mochido.
16 If you're out in the open and you touch someone who has been killed by the sword or who has died naturally, or if you touch a human bone or a grave, then you'll be unclean for seven days.
“Ngʼato angʼata man oko momulo ngʼatno mane onegi gi ligangla kata ngʼat motho kende, kata ngʼatno momulo chok dhano, kata liel, nobedi mochido kuom ndalo abiriyo.
17 This is the process for the purification if you are unclean. Take some of the ashes of the burnt offering for purification, and put them in a jar with fresh water.
“Ne ngʼatno mochido, ket buru moko moa e misango mar pwodhruok kendo uruw gi pi maler mi uol e wigi.
18 A man who is clean shall take some hyssop and dip it in the water. Then sprinkle the tent and everything inside it, and everybody who was there. He would also need to sprinkle you if you who touched a bone, or a grave, or someone who has died or has been killed.
Eka ngʼatno maler nokaw owino, gilute e pi kendo gikuo pi e hema kod e gik moko duto molosgo ii hekalu gi ji man kanyo. Bende nyaka okwo pi kuom ngʼato angʼata mabed ni osemulo chok ngʼama osetho kata liel kata ngʼato ma osenegi kata ngʼato motho athoya.
19 The man who is clean is to sprinkle you both on the third day and on the seventh day. After you are purified on the seventh day, you must wash your clothes and yourself in water, and that evening you'll be clean.
Ngʼat maler ema nyaka kir pi kuom ngʼat mochidono chiengʼ mar adek gi mar abiriyo, to kochopo e odiechiengʼ mar abiriyo nyaka opwodhe. Ngʼama ipwodhono nyaka luok lepe kendo luokre gi pi, kendo odhiambono nobed mapoth.
20 But if you don't purify yourself, you will be expelled from the Israelites, because you have made the Tabernacle of the Lord unclean. The water of purification hasn't been sprinkled on you, and you remain unclean.
To ka ngʼat mochido ok opwodhore owuon, nyaka gole oko e dier oganda, nikech osemiyo kama ler mar lemo mar Jehova Nyasaye ochido. Pi pwodhruokgo pod ok okir kuome, omiyo ochido.
21 This is a permanent rule for the everyone. The man who sprinkles the water of purification must wash his clothes, and anyone who touches the water of purification will be unclean until the evening.
Chik mosiko ne gin ema. “Ngʼat mokiro pi mar pwodhruok nyaka luok lepe bende, kendo ngʼato angʼata momulo pi mar pwodhruok nobed mochido nyaka chop odhiambo.
22 Anything the unclean person touches will be unclean, and anyone who touches it will be unclean until the evening.”
Gimoro amora ma ngʼat mochido omulo nobed mochido, kendo ngʼato angʼata momule nobed mochido nyaka chop odhiambo.”
