< Numbers 6 >

1 YHWH spoke to Moses, saying,
BWANA alinena na Musa. Akamwabia,
2 "Speak to the children of Israel, and tell them: When either man or woman shall make a special vow, the vow of a Nazirite, to separate himself to YHWH,
'Nena na wana wa Israeli, uwaambie, 'Kama mume au mke ataweka nadhiri kwa BWANA kwa kiapo maalumu cha mnadhiri, ndipo atajiepusha na divai na vileo. hatakunywa siki itokanayo na divai.
3 he shall separate himself from wine and strong drink. He shall drink no vinegar of wine, or vinegar of fermented drink, neither shall he drink any juice of grapes, nor eat fresh grapes or dried.
Asinywe kileo kitokanacho na siki au kilevi. Asinywe maji ya divai yeyote au kula zabibu mbichi wala zilizokauka.
4 All the days of his separation he shall eat nothing that is made of the grapevine, from the seeds even to the skins.
Katika siku zote ambazo amejitenga kwa ajili yangu, asile chochote kinachotokana na zabibu, wala kitu chochote kitokanacho na makokwa hadi maganda.
5 "All the days of his vow of separation there shall no razor come on his head, until the days are fulfilled, in which he separates himself to YHWH. He shall be holy. He shall let the locks of the hair of his head grow long.
Wakati wote wa nadhiri yake, wembe usiipite kichwani mwake mpaka siku zake za nadhiri kwa BWANA zitimilike. Lazima ajitenge kwa BWANA. Ataziacha nywele zake zikue kichwani mwake.
6 "All the days that he separates himself to YHWH he shall not go near a dead body.
Wakati wote wa kujidhiri kwake kwa BWANA, asiikaribie maiti.
7 He shall not make himself unclean for his father, or for his mother, for his brother, or for his sister, when they die; because his separation to God is on his head.
Asijinajisi kwa namna yeyote hata kama atakufa baba yake, mama, dada, au ndugu yake. Hii ni kwa sababu amejitenga kwa ajili ya Mungu, kama ambavyo kila mmoja anavyoweza kumuona kwa uerfu wa nywele zake.
8 All the days of his separation he is holy to YHWH.
Wakati wote wa kujidhiri kwake atakuwa mtakatifu, alijitunza kwa ajili ya BWANA.
9 "If any man dies very suddenly beside him, and he defiles the head of his separation; then he shall shave his head in the day of his cleansing. On the seventh day he shall shave it.
Ikitokea mtu amekufa ghafla pembeni yake na kukitia unajisi kichwa chake kitakatifu, ndipo atakaponyoa kichwa chake katika siku ya kujitakasa —Siku ya saba atanyoa kichwa chake.
10 On the eighth day he shall bring two turtledoves or two young pigeons to the priest, to the door of the Tent of Meeting.
Siku ya nane atamletea kuhani njiwa wawili au makinda mawili ya njiwa kwenye lango la hema ya kukutania.
11 The priest shall offer one for a sin offering, and the other for a burnt offering, and make atonement for him, because he sinned by reason of the dead, and shall make his head holy that same day.
Naye kuhani atamtoa ndege mmoja kama sadaka ya dhambi na mwingine kama sadaka ya kuteketezwa. Hawa watafanyika sadaka ya upatanisho kwake kwa sababu atakuwa ametenda dhambi ya kuwa karibu na mfu. Atatakasika kichwa chake siku hiyo.
12 He shall separate to YHWH the days of his separation, and shall bring a male lamb a year old for a trespass offering; but the former days shall be void, because his separation was defiled.
Atajitenga kwa BWANA tena katika siku hizo za utakaso. Ataleta kondoo mume mwenye umri wa mwaka mmoja kama sadaka ya hatia. Zile siku zake kabla ya kunajisika hazitahesabiwa, kwa sababu kujiweka wakfu kwake kulinajisika.
13 "This is the law of the Nazirite: when the days of his separation are fulfilled, he shall be brought to the door of the Tent of Meeting,
Hii ndiyo sheria ya mnadhiri wakati wa muda wa kujidhiri unapokuwa umetimia. Ataletwa kwenye mlango wa hema ya kukutania.
14 and he shall offer his offering to YHWH, one male lamb a year old without blemish for a burnt offering, and one ewe lamb a year old without blemish for a sin offering, and one ram without blemish for peace offerings,
Ataleta sadaka yake kwa BWANA. Atatoa mwanakondoo mume wa mwaka mmoja asiye na hila kama sadaka ya kuteketezwa. Ataleta kondoo mke wa mwaka mmoja asiye na hila kama sadaka ya dhambi. Ataleta kondoo mume asiye na hila kama sadaka ya amani.
15 and a basket of unleavened bread, cakes of fine flour mixed with oil, and unleavened wafers anointed with oil, and their meal offering, and their drink offerings.
Ataleta kikapu cha mikate iliyotengenezwa bila amira, mikate ya unga mwembamba iliyokandwa kwa mafuta, mikate ya kaki isiyo na amira iliyopakwa mafuta, pamoja na sadaka za unga na sadaka za vinywaji.
16 The priest shall present them before YHWH, and shall offer his sin offering, and his burnt offering.
Kuhani atawaleta mbele za BWANA. Atazitoa hizo sadaka zake za dhambi na kuteketezwa.
17 He shall offer the ram for a sacrifice of peace offerings to YHWH, with the basket of unleavened bread. The priest shall offer also its meal offering, and its drink offering.
Na kikapu cha mikate isiyowekwa amira, atamtoa yule kondoo mume kama sadaka ya amani kwa BWANA. Pia kuhani atatoa hiyo sadaka ya unga na sadaka ya vinywaji.
18 The Nazirite shall shave the head of his separation at the door of the Tent of Meeting, and shall take the hair of the head of his separation, and put it on the fire which is under the sacrifice of peace offerings.
Mnadhiri atanyoa nywele zake kama ishara ya kujitenga kwa ajili ya Mungu kwenye mlango wa hema ya kukutania. Atazitoa nywele zake kichwani kwake na kuzichoma kwa moto ulio chini ya sadaka ya amani.
19 The priest shall take the boiled shoulder of the ram, and one unleavened cake out of the basket, and one unleavened wafer, and shall put them on the hands of the Nazirite, after he has shaved the head of his separation;
Kuhani atachukua bega la kondoo mume lililotokoswa, na mkate usiotiwa amira toka kikapuni, na mkate mmoja wa kaki usiotiwa amira. Atauweka kwenye mikono ya Mnadhiri baada ya kuwa amenyoa nywele kwa ishara ya kujidhiri.
20 and the priest shall wave them for a wave offering before YHWH. This is holy for the priest, together with the breast that is waved and the thigh that is offered. After that the Nazirite may drink wine.
Kisha kuhani atavitikisa kuwa sadaka kwa BWANA, sehemu takatifu kwa kuhani, pamoja na kidari cha kutikiswa na paja lililotolewa kwa kwa kuhani. Baadaye, Mnadhiri anaweza kunywa divai.
21 "This is the law of the Nazirite who vows, and of his offering to YHWH for his separation, besides that which he is able to get. According to his vow which he vows, so he must do after the law of his separation."
Hii ndiyo sheri ya Mnadhiri anayeapia sadaka yake kwa BWANA kwa ajili ya kujidhiri kwake. Chochote atakachotoa, lazima afanye kama alivyoapa, kuilinda ahadi yake kama ilivyoaniswa katika sheria ya Mnadhiri.
22 YHWH spoke to Moses, saying,
Tena BWANA akanena na Musa, akasema,
23 "Speak to Aaron and to his sons, saying, 'This is how you shall bless the children of Israel.' You shall tell them,
“nena na Harunu na wanawe. Uwaambie, 'mtawabariki wana wa Israeli kwa njia hii. Mtawaambia,
24 'YHWH bless you, and keep you.
BWANA na awabariki na kuwatunza.
25 YHWH make his face to shine on you, and be gracious to you.
BWANA na awaangazie nuru ya uso wake na awe mwenye neema kwenu.
26 YHWH lift up his face toward you, and give you peace.'
BWANA na awatazame kwa neema na awape amani.'”
27 "So they shall put my name on the children of Israel; and I will bless them."
Ni kwa jinsi hii kwamba wanaweza kuwapa jina langu wana wa Israeli.”
