Numbers 19
1 And he spoke Yahweh to Moses and to Aaron saying.
Bwana akamwambia Mose na Aroni:
2 This [is] [the] statute of the law which he has commanded Yahweh saying speak - to [the] people of Israel so they may bring to you a heifer red unblemished which there not in it [is] a blemish which not it has gone up on it a yoke.
“Hivi ndivyo sheria ambayo Bwana ameagiza itakavyo: Waambie Waisraeli wakuletee mtamba mwekundu asiye na dosari wala waa, na ambaye hajapata kufungwa nira.
3 And you will give it to Eleazar the priest and he will take out it to from [the] outside of the camp and someone will slaughter it before him.
Mpeni kuhani Eleazari huyo mtamba; naye atatolewa nje ya kambi na kuchinjwa mbele yake huyo kuhani.
4 And he will take Eleazar the priest some of blood its with finger his and he will spatter to before [the] face of [the] tent of meeting some of blood its seven times.
Kisha kuhani Eleazari atachukua baadhi ya damu yake kwenye kidole chake na kuinyunyiza mara saba kuelekea upande wa mbele ya Hema la Kukutania.
5 And he will burn the heifer to eyes his skin its and flesh its and blood its with offal its he will burn.
Wakati angali akitazama, mtamba huyo atateketezwa: ngozi yake, nyama yake, damu na sehemu zake za ndani.
6 And he will take the priest wood of cedar and hyssop and scarlet of scarlet stuff and he will throw [them] into [the] middle of [the] burning of the heifer.
Kuhani atachukua kuni za mti wa mwerezi, hisopo na sufu nyekundu, na kuvitupa kwenye huyo mtamba anayeungua.
7 And he will wash clothes his the priest and he will wash body his with water and after he will come into the camp and he will be unclean the priest until the evening.
Baada ya hayo, kuhani lazima afue nguo zake, na aoge mwili wake kwa maji. Kisha anaweza kurudi kambini, lakini atakuwa najisi kwa kawaida ya ibada mpaka jioni.
8 And the [one who] burns it he will wash clothes his with water and he will wash body his with water and he will be unclean until the evening.
Mtu amchomaye huyo mtamba lazima naye pia afue nguo zake na kuoga kwa maji, naye pia atakuwa najisi mpaka jioni.
9 And he will gather - a man clean [the] ash[es] of the heifer and he will deposit [them] from [the] outside of the camp in a place clean and it will become for [the] congregation of [the] people of Israel something kept to water of impurity [is] a sin offering it.
“Mtu ambaye ni safi atakusanya majivu ya mtamba huyo na kuyaweka mahali ambapo ni safi nje ya kambi kwa taratibu za kiibada. Yatahifadhiwa na jumuiya ya Kiisraeli kwa matumizi katika maji ya utakaso; ni kwa ajili ya kutakasa kutoka dhambini.
10 And he will wash the [one who] gathers [the] ash[es] of the heifer clothes his and he will be unclean until the evening and it will become for [the] people of Israel and for the sojourner who sojourns in midst of them a statute of perpetuity.
Mtu akusanyaye majivu ya huyo mtamba ni lazima pia afue nguo zake, kadhalika naye pia atakuwa najisi hadi jioni. Hili litakuwa agizo la kudumu kwa Waisraeli na kwa wageni wanaoishi miongoni mwao.
11 The [one who] touches a dead [body] of every corpse of a person and he will be unclean seven days.
“Mtu yeyote agusaye maiti ya mtu yeyote atakuwa najisi kwa siku saba.
12 He he will purify himself with it on the day third and on the day seventh he will be pure and if not he will purify himself on the day third and on the day seventh not he will be pure.
Ni lazima ajitakase mwenyewe kwa maji katika siku ya tatu na siku ya saba, ndipo atakuwa safi. Lakini kama hatajitakasa mwenyewe katika siku ya tatu na ya saba, hatakuwa safi.
13 Every [one who] touches a dead [body] [the] corpse of person who he will die and not he will purify himself [the] tabernacle of Yahweh he has made unclean and it will be cut off the person that from Israel for [the] water of impurity not it was sprinkled on him unclean he will be still uncleanness his [will be] on him.
Mtu yeyote agusaye maiti ya mtu yeyote na kushindwa kujitakasa mwenyewe hunajisi Maskani ya Bwana. Mtu huyo ni lazima akatiliwe mbali na Israeli. Kwa sababu hajanyunyiziwa maji ya utakaso, yeye ni najisi; unajisi wake unabaki juu yake.
14 This [is] the law anyone if he will die in a tent every [one who] goes into the tent and every [one] who [is] in the tent he will be unclean seven days.
“Hii ndiyo sheria itumikayo wakati mtu amekufa ndani ya hema: Yeyote aingiaye ndani ya hema hilo na yeyote aliye ndani yake watakuwa najisi kwa muda wa siku saba,
15 And every vessel open which there not [is] a cover of a cord on it [is] unclean it.
nacho kila chombo kisicho na kifuniko juu yake kitakuwa najisi.
16 And every [one] who he will touch on [the] face of the field [one] slain of a sword or a dead [body] or a bone of a human or a grave he will be unclean seven days.
“Mtu yeyote aliyeko nje mahali pa wazi agusaye mtu aliyeuawa kwa upanga au mtu aliyekufa kwa kifo cha kawaida, au mtu yeyote agusaye mfupa wa mtu aliyekufa au kaburi, atakuwa najisi kwa siku saba.
17 And people will take for the unclean [person] some of [the] dust of [the] burning of the sin offering and he will put on it water living into a vessel.
“Kwa mtu aliye najisi, weka majivu ya sadaka ya utakaso wa dhambi ndani ya chombo, umimine maji safi juu yao.
18 And he will take hyssop and he will dip [it] in the water a person clean and he will spatter [it] on the tent and on all the vessels and on the people who they were there and on the [one who] touched the bone or the [one] slain or the dead [body] or the grave.
Kisha mtu aliye safi kwa kawaida za kiibada atachukua hisopo, achovye ndani ya maji, na kunyunyizia hema na vifaa vyote pamoja na watu ambao walikuwamo. Pia ni lazima amnyunyizie mtu yeyote ambaye amegusa mfupa wa mtu aliyekufa, au kaburi, au mtu ambaye ameuawa, au mtu ambaye amekufa kifo cha kawaida.
19 And he will spatter [it] the clean [person] on the unclean [person] on the day third and on the day seventh and he will cleanse from sin him on the day seventh and he will wash clothes his and he will wash with water and he will be pure in the evening.
Mtu ambaye ni safi ndiye atakayemnyunyizia yeyote ambaye ni najisi siku ya tatu na siku ya saba, na katika siku ya saba atamtakasa mtu huyo. Mtu ambaye ametakaswa lazima afue nguo zake na kuoga kwa maji, na jioni ile atakuwa safi.
20 And a person who he will be unclean and not he will purify himself and it will be cut off the person that from among the assembly for [the] sanctuary of Yahweh he has made unclean water of impurity not it has been sprinkled on him [is] unclean he.
Lakini ikiwa mtu ambaye ni najisi hakujitakasa mwenyewe, ni lazima akatiliwe mbali na jumuiya, kwa sababu ameinajisi Maskani ya Bwana. Maji ya utakaso hayajanyunyizwa juu yake, naye ni najisi.
21 And it will become for them a statute of perpetuity and [the] [one who] spatters [the] water of impurity he will wash clothes his and the [one who] touches [the] water of impurity he will be unclean until the evening.
Hii ni sheria ya kudumu kwao. “Mtu yeyote ambaye ananyunyiza yale maji ya utakaso lazima pia afue nguo zake, na yeyote ambaye hugusa maji ya utakaso atakuwa najisi mpaka jioni.
22 And all that he will touch it the unclean [person] it will be unclean and the person who touches [it] it will be unclean until the evening.
Kitu chochote anachogusa mtu aliye najisi kitakuwa najisi, na yeyote akigusaye huwa najisi mpaka jioni.”
