< Numbers 19 >

1 Yahweh said to Aaron and Moses/me,
OLELO mai la o Iehova ia Mose a ia Aarona, i mai la,
2 “I am now giving to you another regulation. Tell the Israeli people to bring to you one reddish-brown cow that has no defects. It must be an animal that (has never been/no one has ever) used for plowing ground.
Eia ke kau ana i ke kanawai a Iehova i kauoha mai ai, penei, E olelo aku i na mamo a Iseraela, e lawe mai lakou iou la i bipiwahine hou ulaula maikai kina ole, aole hoi i kau ka auamo maluna ona.
3 Give it to Eleazar, the priest. He must take it outside the camp and slaughter it [and drain the blood in a basin].
A e haawi aku olua ia mea ia Eleazara ke kahuna, a e kai aku kela ia ia mawaho o kahi hoomoana, a e pepehiia oia imua o kona maka.
4 He must dip one of his fingers in the blood and sprinkle some of it seven times [on the ground] near the Sacred Tent.
A e lawe o Eleazara ke kahuna i wahi koko ona ma kona manamanalima, a e kapipi i kona koko ma kahi e ku pono ana i ka halelewa o ke anaina, i ehiku kapipi ana.
5 Then, while Eleazar watches, the cow must be burned completely—its hide, its meat, [the rest of] its blood, and even its dung.
A e puhiia i ke ahi ua bipiwahine hou la imua o kona mau maka, o kona ili, o kona io, me kona koko a me kona lepo kana e puhi ai.
6 Eliezer then must take a stick of cedar wood, a stalk of [a plant named] hyssop, and some scarlet/red yarn, and throw them into the fire where the cow is burning.
A e lawe ke kahuna i ka laau kedera, a me ka husopa, a me ka mea ulaula, a e hoolei aku iloko o ke ahi lapalapa o ka bipiwahine.
7 “Then the priest must wash his clothes and bathe. After doing that, he may return to the camp. But he will be unfit for doing any sacred work until that evening.
Alaila e holoi ke kahuna i kona mau kapa, a e auau i kona kino i ka wai, a mahope iho e hele mai ia iloko o kahi hoomoana, a e haumia ke kahuna a hiki i ke ahiahi.
8 The man who burns the cow must also wash his clothes and bathe, and he will also be unacceptable to me until that evening.
A o ka mea nana e puhi aku ia, e holoi oia i kona mau kapa i ka wai, a e auau ia i kona kino i ka wai, a e haumia oia a hiki i ke ahiahi.
9 “Then someone who has not become unacceptable to me must gather up the ashes of the cow and put them in a (sacred place/place that is acceptable to me) outside the camp. The ashes must be kept there for the people of Israel to [use when they] mix it with water for the ritual to remove the guilt of sin.
A e hoiliili kekahi kanaka maemae i ka lehu o ua bipiwahine la, a e waiho aku ia mea ma kahi maemae mawaho o kahi hoomoana: a e malamaia ia mea no ke anaina kanaka o na mamo a Iseraela, i wai huikala: he mea huikala ia no ka hewa.
10 The man who gathers up the ashes of the cow must [also] wash his clothes, and he [also] will be unfit to do any more sacred work until that evening. That is a regulation that will never be changed. It must be obeyed by you Israeli people and by any foreigners who live among you.
A o ka mea nana e hoiliili i ka lehu o ka bipiwahine, e holoi ia i kona mau kapa, a e haumia oia a hiki i ke ahiahi: a e lilo ia no na mamo a Iseraela, a no ke kanaka e i noho pu ana me lakou, i kanawai mau loa.
11 “All those who touch a corpse will be unacceptable to me for seven days.
O ka mea hoopa aku i ke kupapau o kekahi kanaka, e haumia oia i na la ehiku.
12 On the third day and on the seventh day [after touching a corpse], in order to become acceptable to me again, [they must have sprinkled on them] some of that water for removing the guilt of their sin. If they do not do that on both of those days, they will continue to be unacceptable to me.
E huikala no oia ia ia iho me ia i ke kolu o ka la aku; a i ka hiku o ka la e maemae ia: aka, i ole oia e huikala ia ia iho i ke kolu o ka la, alaila, aole ia e maemae i ka hiku o ka la.
13 All those who touch a corpse, and do not perform in the correct way the ritual to become acceptable to me again, defile Yahweh’s Sacred Tent. They will no longer be permitted to live among the Israeli people. The water to remove the guilt of sin was not sprinkled on them, so they continue to be unacceptable to me.
O kela mea keia mea e hoopa aku i ke kupapau o ke kanaka i make, a i huikala ole oia ia ia iho, ua hoohaumia oia i ka halelewa o Iehova; a e okiia ua kanaka la mai ka Iseraela aku: no ka mea, aole i kapipiia ka wai huikala maluna ona; e haumia no oia, e kau ana no kona haumia maluna ona.
14 “There is another ritual that must be performed when someone dies inside a tent. All those who were inside that tent when that person died or who enter that tent will be unacceptable to me for seven days.
Eia ke kanawai i ka wa e make ai ke kanaka maloko o kekahi halelole: o na mea a pau i komo iloko o ua halelole la, a o na mea a pau oloko o ua halelole la, e haumia no lakou i na la ehiku.
15 Any jars that are inside that tent that are not covered are not permitted to be used.
A o na ipu hamama a pau, o na mea pani ole i haweleia a paa maluna, ua haumia ia.
16 If someone who is out in a field touches the corpse of someone who was murdered, or who died from natural causes, or if someone touches a bone from some human or touches a grave, that person will be unacceptable to me for seven days.
A o ka mea hoopa aku i ka mea i pepehiia i ka pahikaua ma ke kula, a i ke kupapau paha, a i ka iwikanaka paha, a i ka hekupapau paha, e haumia no oia i na la ehiku.
17 “For someone like that to become acceptable to me again, some of the ashes from [the cow] that was burned must be taken and put in a jar. Then some fresh water must be poured over the ashes.
A no ka haumia, e lawe lakou i kekahi lehu o ka bipiwahine i puhiia i ke ahi no ka huikala ana i ka hewa, a e hui pu ia ka wai puna me ia maloko o kekahi ipu.
18 Then someone who is still acceptable to me must take a stalk of [a plant named] hyssop and dip it into the water. Then that person must sprinkle some of the water on the tent where that person died, on the things that are in the tent, and on the people who were in the tent. He must also sprinkle some of that water on any person who touched a human bone or who touched a person who died, or who touched a grave.
A e lawe ke kanaka maemae i ka husopa, a e hou iho iloko o ka wai, a e kapipi ia maluna o ka halelole, a maluna o na ipu a pau, a maluna o na kanaka malaila, a maluna o ka mea nana i hoopa ka iwikanaka, a i ka mea i pepehiia paha, a i ke kupapau paha, a i ka hekupapau paha.
19 On the third day and on the seventh day after that, the person who is acceptable to me must sprinkle some of that water on those who have become unacceptable to me. On the seventh day, the people who are performing that ritual to become acceptable to me again must wash their clothes and bathe. If they do that, on that evening they will become acceptable to me again.
E kapipi ka mea maemae i ka mea haumia i ke kolu o ka la, a i ka hiku o ka la: a i ka hiku o ka la, e hoomaemae oia ia ia iho, a e holoi oia i kona mau kapa, a e auau ia i ka wai, a i ke ahiahi e huikala ia.
20 “If those who have become unacceptable to me do not become acceptable to me again by doing this, they will no longer be permitted to live among the Israeli people, because they have defiled my Sacred Tent. They did not sprinkle on themselves the water that removes the guilt of their sins, so they remain unacceptable to me.
Aka, o ke kanaka haumia, a i huikala ole oia ia ia iho, e hookiia'ku ua kanaka la mai ke anaina aku, no ka mea, ua hoohaumia oia i ke keenakapu o Iehova; aole i kapipiia ka wai huikala maluna ona; ua haumia oia.
21 That is a law for the Israeli people that will never be changed. Those who sprinkle that water on themselves must then wash their clothes. And anyone who touches that water which removes guilt for sins will remain unacceptable to God until that evening.
A e lilo ia i kanawai mau loa no lakou; o ka mea nana e kapipi i ka wai huikala, e holoi ia i kona mau kapa; o ka mea hoi nana e hoopa aku i ka wai huikala, e haumia oia a hiki i ke ahiahi.
22 “If someone touches a thing or a person that has become unacceptable to me, that person will remain unacceptable to me until that evening.”
O kela mea keia mea a ka mea haumia e hoopa aku ai, e haumia hoi ia mea: a o ke kanaka nana e hoopa aku, e haumia oia a hiki i ke ahiahi.
