< Leviticus 5 >

1 [Yahweh also said to tell the people], “If [a judge] orders any of you to tell [in court] something that you have seen or something that you heard someone say, if you refuse to say what you know is true, you must (pay a penalty/be punished) [MTY] for refusing to tell what you know.
“‘Ngʼato angʼata ma nokwongʼre kata ma notamre mar hulo wach moro mosewinjo kata moseneno, en bende nobed jaketho, kendo nyaka kume mi ochul.
2 If you accidentally touch something which God considers impure [DOU], such as the carcass of a wild animal or the carcass of a bull or cow, or of an animal that scurries across the ground, you must (pay a penalty/be punished).
“‘Kata ka ngʼato omulo gimoro makwero, bed ni en le mar bungu motho kata gik mamol motho, ka ok ongʼeyo, mi ofwenye achien, to enodok jaketho.
3 If you touch any human feces, even if you do not intend to do that, when you realize what you have done, you must (pay a penalty/be punished).
Kata ka orere kuom gimoro makwero moa kuom dhano ka ok ongʼeyo, mi ofwenyo achien, to enodok jaketho.
4 If you carelessly make a solemn promise [to do something] that is good or that is bad, when you realize what you have done, you must (pay a penalty/be punished).
Ka ngʼato ohedhore ma okwongʼore mar timo gimoro, maber kata marach ka ok ongʼeyo, (e wach moro ma ngʼato thoro hedhore ka kwongʼore) mi bangʼe achien ofwenyo, to enodok jaketho.
5 If you are guilty of committing any of those sins, you must confess what you have done.
Ka ngʼato angʼata en jaketho e achiel kuom wechegi, to nyaka ohul kaka oseketho,
6 And for a penalty you must bring to Yahweh a female lamb or female goat, to be an offering for the sin that you have committed, and the priest will sacrifice it, and then you will no longer be guilty for your sin.
kendo nyaka okel ni Jehova Nyasaye rombo kata diel madhako kaka misango mar golo richo kuom ketho mosetimo; bangʼe jadolo nopwodhnego kethoneno.
7 If you [are poor and] cannot afford to bring a lamb, you must bring to Yahweh two doves or two young pigeons. One will be an offering for your sin and one will be an offering that will be completely burned [on the altar].
“‘To ka ok onyal chiwo nyarombo, to nokel akuche odugla ariyo kata nyithi akuru ariyo ni Jehova Nyasaye kuom richo mosetimono. Kuom mano, akuru achiel notimnego misango mar golo richo, to machielo to notimnego misango miwangʼo pep.
8 You must bring them to the priest. First he will offer one of them to be an offering for your sin. He will wring/twist its neck [to kill it], but he must not pull off its head completely.
Enokelgi ne jadolo, eka jadolo nokwong ochiw winyo mar misango mar golo richo. Enomak wiye komino ngʼute, to ok nochode chuth,
9 Then he must sprinkle some of the blood against the side of the altar. The remaining blood must be drained out at the base of the altar. That will be an offering for your sin.
kendo nokir remb winyono moko e kor kendo mar misango, to remo modongʼ to mondo ochwer e tiend kendono, nikech en misango mar golo richo.
10 The priest will then do what I have commanded and offer the other bird to be completely burned [on the altar]. Then you will no longer be guilty for the sin you have committed, and Yahweh will forgive you.
Jadolo nochiw winyo machielo modongʼ kaka misango miwangʼo pep e yo ma chik dwaro kendo mondo opwodhego kuom richo mosetimo mi nowene.
11 However, if you [are very poor and] cannot afford two doves or two young pigeons, you must bring to be an offering for your sin (2 pounds/1 kg.) of fine flour. You must not put olive oil or incense on it, because it is an offering for sin.
“‘To ka ok onyal yudo kata mana akuche odugla ariyo kata nyithi akuru ariyo, to chunoni nyaka ochiw kilo angʼwen mar mogo mayom kaka misango mar golo richo. Kik oolie mo kata kik oketie ubani, nikech en misango mar golo richo.
12 You must take it to the priest. He will take a handful of it, to symbolize that the whole offering truly belongs to Yahweh, and burn it on the altar, on top of the other offerings.
Eka enokel mogono ni jadolo eka jadolo nojuke sanja kaka rapar, mi nowangʼe e kendo mar misango ewi misengini miwangʼo gi mach ni Jehova Nyasaye. Mano en misango mar golo richo.
13 And by doing that, the priest will enable you to no longer be guilty for any of the sins that you have committed, and you will be forgiven. The part of the offering that is not burned will belong to the priest, like was true for the offerings made from grain.”
Kamano e kaka jadolo notimne pwodhruok kuom richo mosetimo kendo nowene. Mana kaka chiwo mag cham, chiwo mamoko nobed mag jadolo.’”
14 Yahweh also said to Moses/me,
Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya,
15 “When you sin, without intending to, by not giving to Yahweh the things that you are required to give to him, you must pay a penalty by bringing to Yahweh a ram that has no defects. You must determine how much silver it is worth, by using the official standard in the temple. It will be an offering to cause you to no longer be guilty.
“Ka ngʼato oketho mi otimo richo mar oyiem kaluwore gi chike maler mag Jehova Nyasaye, to nyaka okel ne Jehova Nyasaye im maonge songa kendo man-gi nengo kaluwore gi rapim mar shekel mar kama ler mar lemo. En misango michiwo mar pwodhruok e ketho.
16 But you must also make restitution for what you failed to give to Yahweh, adding one-fifth of its value. You must give that to the priest. He will offer the ram as a sacrifice for the sin that you have committed, and cause you to no longer be guilty; and you will be forgiven.
Nyaka ochul nengo mar gima ne ok ochiwo kaluwore gi chike maler, kendo bende omedi achiel kuom abich mar nengono kendo ochiwe duto ne jadolo, mabiro kawo imno kendo otimnego misango mar pwodhruok e ketho eka nowene richone.
17 If you sin by doing something that is forbidden by any of Yahweh’s commands, even if you do not know that you have disobeyed one of my commands, you are guilty and must pay a penalty [to me].
“Ka ngʼata otimo richo kendo otimo gima okwer e chik moro amora mar Jehova Nyasaye, kata obedo ni ok ongʼeye, to en richo kendo en okwane jaketho.
18 [When you realize what you have done], you must bring a ram to the Supreme Priest to be an offering in order that you will no longer be guilty. You must bring one that has no defects. He will offer the ram to be a sacrifice to me, and as a result you will no longer be guilty for the sin that you have committed, and you will be forgiven.
Nyaka okelne jadolo im man-gi nengo kendo maonge songa kaka misango mipwodhogo ketho. Kamano jadolo nopwodhe kuom ketho mosetimo kokia kendo nowene.
19 It is an offering to cause you to no longer be guilty for sinning against me.”
En misango mar pwodhruok e ketho; nikech osetimo marach e nyim Jehova Nyasaye.”
