< Leviticus 12 >
1 And the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,
Bwana akamwambia Mose,
2 Speake vnto the children of Israel, and say, When a woman hath brought forth seede, and borne a manchilde, shee shalbe vncleane seuen dayes, like as she is vncleane when she is put apart for her disease.
“Waambie Waisraeli: ‘Mwanamke ambaye atapata mimba na kuzaa mtoto wa kiume atakuwa najisi kwa kawaida ya ibada kwa siku saba, kama anavyokuwa najisi wakati wa siku zake za hedhi.
3 (And in the eight day, the foreskin of the childes flesh shalbe circumcised)
Mvulana atatahiriwa siku ya nane.
4 And she shall continue in the blood of her purifying three and thirtie dayes: she shall touch no halowed thing, nor come into the Sanctuarie, vntil the time of her purifying be out.
Kisha ni lazima huyo mwanamke asubiri kwa siku thelathini na tatu, ndipo atakaswe kutoka damu kwake. Hataruhusiwa kugusa kitu chochote kilicho kitakatifu au kuingia mahali patakatifu, mpaka siku za kutakaswa kwake zimetimia.
5 But if she beare a mayde childe, then shee shalbe vncleane two weekes, as when shee hath her disease: and she shall continue in the blood of her purifying three score and sixe dayes.
Kama akimzaa mtoto wa kike, mwanamke huyo atakuwa najisi kwa majuma mawili, kama wakati wake wa hedhi. Kisha atasubiri kwa siku sitini na sita, ndipo atatakaswa kutoka damu kwake.
6 Nowe when the dayes of her purifying are out, (whether it be for a sonne or for a daughter) shee shall bring to the Priest a lambe of one yeere olde for a burnt offering, and a yong pigeon or a turtle doue for a sinne offring, vnto the doore of the Tabernacle of the Congregation,
“‘Siku zake za utakaso kwa ajili ya mwana au binti zitakapotimia, mwanamke huyo atamletea kuhani kwenye ingilio la Hema la Kukutania mwana-kondoo mwenye umri wa mwaka mmoja kwa ajili ya sadaka ya kuteketezwa, na kinda la njiwa au hua kwa ajili ya sadaka ya dhambi.
7 Who shall offer it before the Lord, and make an atonement for her: so she shalbe purged of the issue of her blood this is the law for her that hath borne a male or female.
Atavitoa mbele za Bwana ili kufanya upatanisho kwa ajili yake, na kisha atakuwa safi kwa desturi ya ibada kutokana na kutokwa damu kwake. “‘Haya ndiyo masharti kwa ajili ya mwanamke atakayezaa mtoto wa kiume au wa kike.
8 But if she bee not able to bring a lambe, she shall bring two turtles, or two yong pigeons: the one for a burnt offring, and the other for a sinne offring: and the Priest shall make an atonement for her: so she shall be cleane.
Kama huyo mwanamke hana uwezo wa kumpata mwana-kondoo, ataleta hua wawili au makinda mawili ya njiwa, moja kwa ajili ya sadaka ya kuteketezwa na mwingine kwa ajili ya sadaka ya dhambi. Kwa njia hii, kuhani atafanya upatanisho kwa ajili yake, naye atakuwa safi.’”
