< Numbers 19 >

1 And YHWH speaks to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
Jehova akĩĩra Musa na Harũni atĩrĩ,
2 “This [is] a statute of the law which YHWH has commanded, saying, Speak to the sons of Israel, and they bring a red cow to you, a perfect one, in which there is no blemish, on which no yoke has gone up;
“Ũndũ ũyũ nĩ wa kũrũmĩrĩrwo thĩinĩ wa watho ũrĩa Jehova aathanĩte: Ĩra andũ a Isiraeli makũrehere moori ndune ĩtarĩ kaũũgũ kana kameni, na ĩtarĩ yekĩrwo icooki.
3 and you have given it to Eleazar the priest, and he has brought it out to the outside of the camp, and has slaughtered it before him.
Mũmĩnengere Eleazaru, ũrĩa mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai; ĩtwarwo nja ya kambĩ, na ĩthĩnjĩrwo hau mbere yake.
4 And Eleazar the priest has taken of its blood with his finger, and has sprinkled [it] toward the front of the face of the Tent of Meeting from its blood seven times;
Nake Eleazaru, ũcio mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai, oe thakame na kĩara gĩake, na amĩminjaminje maita mũgwanja amĩroretie na mwena wa mbere wa Hema-ya Gũtũnganwo.
5 and [one] has burned the cow before his eyes; her skin, and her flesh, and her blood, besides her dung, he burns;
Nayo moori ĩyo ĩcinwo yothe akĩonaga, ũguo nĩ kuuga rũũa rwayo, na nyama, na thakame, o na taatha wayo.
6 and the priest has taken cedar wood, and hyssop, and scarlet, and has cast [them] into the midst of the burning of the cow;
Mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũcio oe rũkũ rwa mũtarakwa, na mũthobi, na guoya wa rangi wa gakarakũ, aciikie igũrũ wa moori ĩyo ĩrahĩa.
7 and the priest has washed his garments, and has bathed his flesh with water, and afterward comes into the camp, and the priest is unclean until the evening;
Thuutha wa ũguo mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũcio no nginya athambie nguo ciake na ethambe mwĩrĩ na maaĩ. Thuutha ũcio no acooke kambĩ, no arĩ na thaahu o nginya hwaĩ-inĩ.
8 and he who is burning it washes his garments with water, and has bathed his flesh with water, and is unclean until the evening.
Mũndũ ũrĩa ũrĩcinaga moori ĩyo no nginya athambie nguo ciake na ethambe mwĩrĩ na maaĩ, na o nake atiinde arĩ na thaahu nginya hwaĩ-inĩ.
9 And a clean man has gathered the ashes of the cow, and has placed [them] at the outside of the camp in a clean place, and it has become a charge for the congregation of the sons of Israel for waters of separation—it [is for] sin;
“Mũndũ ũtarĩ na thaahu acooke ahakũre mũhu ũcio wa moori ĩyo na aũige handũ hatarĩ na thaahu nja ya kambĩ. Mũhu ũcio ũigagwo nĩ kĩrĩndĩ kĩa andũ a Isiraeli, nĩgeetha ũhũthagĩrwo maaĩ-inĩ ma kũniina thaahu; ũcio nĩguo wa gũtheranagia kuuma mehia-inĩ.
10 and he who is gathering the ashes of the heifer has washed his garments and is unclean until the evening; and it has been to the sons of Israel and to the sojourner who is sojourning in their midst for a continuous statute.
Mũndũ ũrĩa ũrĩhakũraga mũhu wa moori ĩyo, no nginya athambie nguo ciake, o nake atiinde arĩ na thaahu nginya hwaĩ-inĩ. Ũndũ ũyũ nĩ watho wa gũtũũra harĩ andũ a Isiraeli na ageni arĩa matũũranagia nao.
11 He who is coming against the dead body of any man is unclean [for] seven days;
“Mũndũ ũrĩa ũngĩhutia kĩimba kĩa mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ arĩikaraga arĩ na thaahu mĩthenya mũgwanja.
12 he cleanses himself for it on the third day and on the seventh day, [and] he is clean; and if he does not cleanse himself on the third day and on the seventh day, he is not clean.
No nginya etherie na maaĩ mũthenya wa gatatũ, na mũthenya wa mũgwanja; hĩndĩ ĩyo athirwo nĩ thaahu. No angĩaga gwĩtheria mũthenya wa gatatũ na wa mũgwanja, ndagaathirwo nĩ thaahu.
13 Anyone who is coming against the dead, against the body of man who dies, and does not cleanse himself, he has defiled the Dwelling Place of YHWH, and that person has been cut off from Israel, for water of separation is not sprinkled on him; he is unclean; his uncleanness [is] still on him.
Mũndũ o wothe ũngĩhutia kĩimba kĩa mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ na aage gwĩtheria, ũcio nĩathaahĩtie Hema-ĩrĩa-Nyamũre ya Jehova. Mũndũ ũcio no nginya aingatwo oime Isiraeli. Tondũ ndaminjaminjĩirio maaĩ ma kũniina thaahu, mũndũ ũcio arĩ na thaahu; thaahu wake ndũthirĩte.
14 This [is] the law when a man dies in a tent: everyone who is coming into the tent and all that [is] in the tent are unclean [for] seven days;
“Ũyũ nĩguo watho wa kũrũmĩrĩrwo rĩrĩa mũndũ akuĩra hema-inĩ: Mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ ũngĩtoonya hema ĩyo, mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ ũrĩa ũgaakorwo thĩinĩ wayo-rĩ, nĩakanyiitwo nĩ thaahu mĩthenya mũgwanja,
15 and every open vessel which has no covering of thread on it is unclean.
nakĩo kĩndũ o gĩothe kĩa nyũmba gĩgaakorwo gĩtarĩ gĩkunĩke nĩgĩkanyiitwo nĩ thaahu.
16 And everyone on the face of the field who comes against the pierced of a sword, or against the dead, or against a bone of man, or against a grave, is unclean [for] seven days;
“Mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ ũrĩ na kũu nja ũngĩhutia mũndũ ũragĩtwo na rũhiũ rwa njora kana mũndũ ũkuĩte gĩkuũ kĩa ndũire, kana mũndũ o wothe ũngĩhutia ihĩndĩ rĩa mũndũ kana mbĩrĩra, ũcio nĩakanyiitwo nĩ thaahu mĩthenya mũgwanja.
17 and for the unclean person they have taken from the ashes of the burning of the [cow], and he has put running water over it into a vessel;
“Nĩ ũndũ wa mũndũ ũrĩ na thaahu, ĩkĩra mũhu wa moori ĩrĩa yacinĩtwo ĩrĩ ya gũtherania ndigithũ-inĩ, naguo ũitĩrĩrio maaĩ matahĩtwo o hĩndĩ ĩyo.
18 and a clean person has taken hyssop, and has dipped [it] in water, and has sprinkled [it] on the tent, and on all the vessels, and on the persons who have been there, and on him who is coming against a bone, or against one pierced, or against the dead, or against a grave.
Nake mũndũ ũtarĩ na thaahu nĩoe mũthobi aũtobokie maaĩ-inĩ macio, na aminjaminjĩrie hema ĩyo na indo ciayo ciothe, na andũ arĩa maarĩ kũu thĩinĩ. Ningĩ no nginya aminjaminjĩrie mũndũ ũrĩa wothe ũhutĩtie ihĩndĩ rĩa mũndũ, kana mbĩrĩra, kana mũndũ ũragĩtwo, kana mũndũ ũkuĩte gĩkuũ kĩa ndũire.
19 And the clean has sprinkled [it] on the unclean on the third day and on the seventh day, and has cleansed him on the seventh day, and he has washed his garments, and has bathed with water, and has been clean in the evening.
Mũndũ ũrĩa ũtarĩ na thaahu nĩakaminjaminjĩria mũndũ ũcio ũrĩ na thaahu maaĩ macio mũthenya wa gatatũ na wa mũgwanja, naguo mũthenya wa mũgwanja nĩguo akamũtheria. Nake mũndũ ũcio ũgũtherio no nginya athambie nguo ciake na ethambe mwĩrĩ na maaĩ, naguo hwaĩ-inĩ ũcio nĩagakorwo athirĩtwo nĩ thaahu.
20 And the man who is unclean and does not cleanse himself, indeed, that person has been cut off from the midst of the assembly; for he has defiled the sanctuary of YHWH; water of separation is not sprinkled on him; he [is] unclean.
No rĩrĩ, mũndũ ũrĩ na thaahu angĩaga gwĩtheria, no nginya aingatwo kuuma kũrĩ kĩrĩndĩ, nĩ ũndũ nĩathaahĩtie handũ-harĩa-haamũre ha Jehova. Nĩgũkorwo ndaminjaminjĩirio maaĩ ma kũniina thaahu, nĩ ũndũ ũcio arĩ na thaahu.
21 And it has been for a continuous statute to them, that he who is sprinkling the water of separation washes his garments, and he who is coming against the water of separation is unclean until the evening,
Ũyũ nĩ watho wao wa gũtũũra. “Mũndũ ũcio wakũminjaminjanĩria maaĩ macio ma kũniina thaahu no nginya o nake athambie nguo ciake, na mũndũ o wothe ũngĩhutia maaĩ macio ma kũniina thaahu nĩagatinda arĩ na thaahu nginya hwaĩ-inĩ.
22 and all against which the unclean person comes is unclean, and the person who is coming against [it] is unclean until the evening.”
Kĩndũ gĩothe mũndũ ũrĩ na thaahu akaahutia nĩgĩkanyiitwo nĩ thaahu, na mũndũ ũrĩa ũngĩhutia kĩndũ kĩu nĩagatinda arĩ na thaahu nginya hwaĩ-inĩ.”
