< Numbers 8 >
1 And the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,
Nake Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ,
2 Speake vnto Aaron, and say vnto him, When thou lightest the lampes, the seuen lampes shall giue light towarde the forefront of the Candlesticke.
“Arĩria Harũni, ũmwĩre atĩrĩ, ‘Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa ũrĩbangaga matawa marĩa mũgwanja, mabangage nĩguo ũtheri wamo waragĩre mwena wa na mbere wa mũtĩ ũcio wa kũigĩrĩrwo matawa.’”
3 And Aaron did so, lighting the lampes thereof towarde ye forefront of the Candlesticke, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
Harũni agĩĩka o ta ũguo; akĩbanga matawa macio amaroretie mwena ũrĩa ũtheri wamo watheragĩra hau mbere ya mũtĩ ũcio maaigagĩrĩrwo, o ta ũrĩa Jehova aathĩte Musa gwĩkwo.
4 And this was the worke of the Candlesticke, euen of golde beaten out with the hammer, both the shafte, and the flowres thereof was beaten out with the hammer: according to the paterne, which the Lord had shewed Moses, so made he the Candlesticke.
Mũtĩ ũcio wa kũigĩrĩrwo matawa wathondeketwo ũũ: wathondeketwo na thahabu ya gũturwo, kuuma gĩtina-inĩ kĩaguo o nginya kũrĩa mahũa maguo maarĩ. Mũhianĩre wa mũtĩ ũcio wa kũigĩrĩrwo matawa wathondeketwo o ta ũrĩa mũhianĩre waguo wonetio Musa nĩ Jehova.
5 And the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,
Nake Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ:
6 Take the Leuites from among the children of Israel, and purifie them.
“Oya Alawii ũmeherie kuuma kũrĩ andũ arĩa angĩ a Isiraeli, ũmatherie mathirwo nĩ thaahu.
7 And thus shalt thou doe vnto them, when thou purifiest them, Sprinckle water of purification vpon them, and let them shaue all their flesh, and wash their clothes: so they shalbe cleane.
Ũkĩmatheria ũgeekaga ũũ: Maminjaminjĩrie maaĩ ma kũmatheria thaahu; macooke menje njuĩrĩ cia mĩĩrĩ yao kũndũ guothe na mathambie nguo ciao, nĩguo metherie.
8 Then they shall take a yong bullocke with his meate offring of fine floure, mingled with oyle, and another yong bullocke shalt thou take for a sinne offring.
Ningĩ ũreke moe gategwa hamwe na iruta rĩako rĩa mũtu ũrĩa mũhinyu mũno ũtukanĩtio na maguta; nawe ũcooke woe gategwa kangĩ ga keerĩ ga kũrutwo igongona rĩa kũhoroherio mehia.
9 Then thou shalt bring the Leuites before the Tabernacle of the Congregation, and asseble all the Congregation of the children of Israel.
Ũrehe Alawii acio mbere ya Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo, na ũcooke wĩte kĩrĩndĩ gĩothe kĩa andũ a Isiraeli hamwe.
10 Thou shalt bring the Leuites also before the Lord, and the children of Israel shall put their handes vpon the Leuites.
Ũrehe Alawii acio mbere ya Jehova, nao andũ a Isiraeli mamaigĩrĩre moko mĩtwe.
11 And Aaron shall offer the Leuites before the Lord, as a shake offring of ye childre of Israel, that they may execute the seruice of the Lord.
Nake Harũni arutĩre Jehova Alawii acio hau mbere yake taarĩ igongona rĩa gũthũngũthio rĩrutĩtwo nĩ andũ a Isiraeli, nĩguo maikarage mehaarĩirie kũruta wĩra wa Jehova.
12 And the Leuites shall put their handes vpon the heades of the bullockes, and make thou the one a sinne offring, and the other a burnt offring vnto the Lord, that thou mayest make an atonement for the Leuites.
“Thuutha ũcio Alawii maigĩrĩre moko mao mĩtwe ya ndegwa icio, ũcirutĩre Jehova, ĩmwe ĩtuĩke ya igongona rĩa kũhoroherio mehia na ĩyo ĩngĩ ĩtuĩke iruta rĩa njino, nĩgeetha Alawii mahoroherio.
13 And thou shalt set the Leuites before Aaron and before his sonnes, and offer the as a shake offring to the Lord.
Reke Alawii marũgame mbere ya Harũni na ariũ ake, na ũcooke ũmarutĩre Jehova taarĩ igongona rĩa gũthũngũthio.
14 Thus thou shalt separate the Leuites from among the children of Israel, and the Leuites shall be mine.
Ũguo nĩguo ũkaamũra Alawii, ũmeherie kuuma kũrĩ andũ arĩa angĩ a Isiraeli, nao Alawii acio matuĩke akwa.
15 And afterwarde shall the Leuites goe in, to serue in the Tabernacle of the Congregation, and thou shalt purifie them and offer them, as a shake offering.
“Warĩkia gũtheria Alawii acio na kũmaruta matuĩke ta igongona rĩa gũthũngũthio-rĩ, nĩmarutage wĩra wao Hema-inĩ-ya-Gũtũnganwo.
16 For they are freely giuen vnto me from among the children of Israel, for such as open any wombe: for all the first borne of the children of Israel haue I taken them vnto me.
Acio nĩo andũ a Isiraeli arĩa mekũheanwo kũrĩ niĩ biũ. Ndĩmeyoeire marĩ akwa ithenya rĩa marigithathi ma ciana cia tũhĩĩ kuuma kũrĩ mũtumia o wothe Mũisiraeli.
17 For all the first borne of the children of Israel are mine, both of man and of beast: since the day that I smote euery first borne in the land of Egypt, I sanctified them for my selfe.
Irigithathi o rĩothe rĩa njamba gũkũ Isiraeli, kana nĩ rĩa mũndũ kana nĩ rĩa nyamũ-rĩ, nĩ rĩakwa. Rĩrĩa ndooragire marigithathi mothe kũu bũrũri wa Misiri-rĩ, hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩguo ndaamaamũrire matuĩke akwa mwene.
18 And I haue taken the Leuites for all the first borne of the children of Israel,
Na niĩ nĩ njoete Alawii ithenya rĩa marigithathi mothe ma ciana cia tũhĩĩ thĩinĩ wa Isiraeli.
19 And haue giuen the Leuites as a gift vnto Aaron, and to his sonnes from among the children of Israel, to do the seruice of the children of Israel in the Tabernacle of the Congregation, and to make an atonement for the children of Israel, that there be no plague among the children of Israel, when the children of Israel come neere vnto the Sanctuarie.
Thĩinĩ wa andũ a Isiraeli othe-rĩ, nĩheanĩte Alawii matuĩke iheo kũrĩ Harũni na ariũ ake, na marutage wĩra Hema-inĩ-ĩno-ya-Gũtũnganwo handũ ha andũ a Isiraeli, na mamahorohagĩrie nĩgeetha andũ a Isiraeli matikae kũniinwo na mũthiro hĩndĩ ĩrĩa mangĩkuhĩrĩria handũ-harĩa-haamũre.”
20 Then Moses and Aaron and all the Cogregation of the children of Israel did with the Leuites, according vnto all that the Lord had commanded Moses concerning the Leuites: so did the children of Israel vnto them.
Musa, na Harũni marĩ na kĩrĩndĩ kĩu gĩothe kĩa andũ a Isiraeli magĩĩka Alawii o ta ũguo Jehova aathĩte Musa.
21 So the Leuites were purified, and washed their clothes, and Aaron offred them as a shake offring before the Lord, and Aaron made an atonement for them, to purifie them.
Alawii acio magĩĩtheria na magĩthambia nguo ciao. Harũni nake agĩcooka akĩmaruta ta igongona rĩa gũthũngũthio mbere ya Jehova, na akĩmahoroheria nĩguo amatherie.
22 And after that, went the Leuites in to doe their seruice in the Tabernacle of the Congregation, before Aaron and before his sonnes: as the Lord had commanded Moses concerning the Leuites, so they did vnto them.
Thuutha ũcio, Alawii magĩtoonya Hema-inĩ-ĩyo-ya-Gũtũnganwo marutage wĩra wao marũgamĩrĩirwo nĩ Harũni na ariũ ake. Magĩĩka Alawii acio o ta ũrĩa Jehova aathĩte Musa gwĩkwo.
23 And the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,
Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ,
24 This also belongeth to the Leuites: from fiue and twentie yeere olde and vpwarde, they shall goe in, to execute their office in the seruice of the Tabernacle of the Congregation.
“Ũndũ ũyũ nĩguo ũkoniĩ Alawii: Atĩrĩ, arũme othe arĩa mahingĩtie mĩaka mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na ĩtano na makĩria nĩo marĩũkaga kũruta wĩra Hema-inĩ-ya-Gũtũnganwo,
25 And after the age of fiftie yeere, they shall cease from executing the office, and shall serue no more:
no mahingia mĩaka mĩrongo ĩtano-rĩ, no nginya mahurũke kuuma wĩra ũcio wao wa gũtungata, matigacooke kũruta wĩra.
26 But they shall minister with their brethre in the Tabernacle of the Congregation, to keepe things committed to their charge, but they shall doe no seruice: thus shalt thou doe vnto the Leuites touching their charges.
No rĩrĩ, no mateithagĩrĩrie ariũ a ithe wao rĩrĩa mekũruta wĩra Hema-inĩ-ya-Gũtũnganwo, no-o ene matikarute wĩra ũcio. Ũguo nĩguo ũrĩgayagĩra Alawii wĩra ũrĩa marĩrutaga.”
