< Numbers 6 >

1 Yahweh also said this to Moses/me:
OLELO mai la o Iehova ia Mose, i mai la,
2 “Tell this to the Israeli people: ‘If any of you [wants to] make a solemn promise to dedicate himself to belong to me in a special way, [after you obey these instructions], you will be called a Nazir-man, [which means “dedicated man”].
E olelo aku oe i na mamo a Iseraela, e i aku ia lakou, O ke kanaka, o ka wahine paha ke hoolaa ia ia iho no ka hoohiki i ka hoohiki ana a ka Nazarite, a e hookaawale ia ia iho no Iehova;
3 You must not drink any wine or other alcoholic/fermented drink. You must not drink any vinegar made from wine or from any other alcoholic/fermented drink. You must not drink grape juice or eat grapes or raisins.
E hookaawale ia ia iho i ka waina, a me ka mea ona, aole ia e inu i ka vinega o ka waina, aole hoi i ka vinega o ka mea ona, aole hoi ia e inu i ka wai i kohu i na huawaina, aole hoi ia e ai i na huawaina maka, aole hoi i na huawaina maloo.
4 You must not eat anything that comes from grapevines, not even the skins or seeds of grapes, during the time that you are a Nazir-man.
I na la a pau o kona kaawale ana no Iehova, aole ia e ai i kekahi mea no ke kumuwaina, aole i na anoano, aole hoi i ka ili.
5 ‘Even your hair will be dedicated to me during the time that you area Nazir-man, so you must never allow anyone to cut your hair. Until the time that your solemn promise to dedicate yourself to me is ended, you must allow your hair to grow long.
I na la a pau o kona hoohiki ana e noho kaawale, aole e pili mai ka pahi amu ma kona poo; a pau na la i hookaawaleia'i oia no Iehova, e noho laa ia, a e ulu loa na lauoho o kona poo.
6 And you must not go near a corpse during the time that you are a Nazir-man.
I na la a pau o kona noho kaawale ana no Iehova, aole ia e hele a pili aku i ke kupapau.
7 Even if the person who died is your father or your mother or your brother or your sister, you must not cause yourself to become unacceptable to me [by coming close to the corpse]. Your long hair [MTY] shows that you belong to me in a special way, so you must not cut your hair.
Aole ia e hoohaumia ia ia iho no kona makuakane, aole hoi no kona makuwahine, aole hoi no kona hoahanaukane, aole hoi no ko na hoahanauwahine, ke make lakou; no ka mea, aia no maluna ona ke kapu no kona Akua.
8 You are required to keep doing this all the time that you are dedicated to me in this special way.
I na la a pau o kona kaawale ana, ua laa ia no Iehova.
9 ‘If anyone dies very suddenly when he is near you, then your hair that you have dedicated to me is no longer sacred. So you must wait seven days and then shave it all off. Then you must perform a special ritual to cause yourself to become acceptable to me again.
A ina e make koke kekahi kanaka e pili ana me ia, a haumia ke poo o kona laa ana: alaila e amu ia i kona poo i ka la o kona huikala ana, i ka hiku o ka la e amu ai ia.
10 The next day you must bring two doves or two young pigeons to the priest at the entrance of the Sacred Tent.
A i ka walu o ka la, e lawe mai oia i elua manu kuhukuku, a i elua manu nunu opiopio paha i ke kahuna, ma ka puka o ka halelewa o ke anaina.
11 ‘The priest must [kill the birds and] offer them as sacrifices. One of them will be an offering to enable me to forgive you for the sins you have committed, and the other will be an offering that is burned completely to please me. [After the priest burns them on the altar], I will forgive you for having come close to a corpse, and [when] your hair [grows again it] will be dedicated to me again.
A e kaumaha aku ke kahuna i kekahi i mohaihala, a i kekahi i mohaikuni, a e hookalahala aku ia nona, no ka mea ana i hewa ai i ke kupapau, a e hoolaa aku ia i kona poo ia la.
12 The amount of time that you were set apart for me the previous time does not count, because you had become unacceptable to me [by coming close to a corpse] during the time that you were a Nazir-man. So you must again make a solemn promise to dedicate yourself to me for the entire amount of time that you indicated the previous time. And you must also sacrifice a one-year-old lamb for not doing what you were required to do.
A e hoolaa aku ia no Iehova i na la o kona kaawale ana, a e lawe mai ia i keikihipa o ka makahiki mua i mohaihala: aka e haule wale iho na la mamua, no ka mea, ua haumia kona kaawale ana.
13 ‘When the time that you promised to dedicate yourself to me is ended, go to the entrance of the Sacred Tent
Eia hoi ke kanawai no ka Nazarite: aia pau na la o kona kaawale ana, e hele mai ia ma ka puka o ka halelewa o ke anaina:
14 and offer as sacrifices to me three animals that have no defects: Offer a one-year-old ram that will be burned completely, a one-year-old female lamb as a sacrifice to enable me to forgive your sins, and one full-grown ram as a sacrifice to maintain fellowship with me.
A e kaumaha aku ia i kana mohai na Iehova, i hookahi keikihipa o ka makahiki mua, i mohaikuni; a i hookahi keikihipa wahine kina ole o ka makahiki mua, i mohaihala; a i hookahi hipakane kina ole i mohaihoomalu;
15 ‘When you bring those animals, you must also bring some wine to offer as a sacrifice. And you must also bring a basket of bread that you have made with very good flour and [olive] oil. But you must not put any yeast in the bread. Also brush/spread some [olive] oil on some thin wafers and bring them to the priest.
A me ka hinai berena hu ole, me na pai palaoa i kawili pu ia me ka aila, a me na wepa palaoa ha ole i kahinuia i ka aila, a me ka lakou mohaiai, a me ka lakou mohaiinu.
16 ‘The priest will put the young lamb and the young ram on the altar and completely burn them, in order that I will be pleased and will forgive you for your sins.
A e lawe mai ke kahuna ia mau mea imua o Iehova, a e kaumaha aku i kana mohaihala a me kana mohaikuni.
17 Then he will kill the full-grown ram as an offering to restore fellowship with me, and he will also burn on the altar some of the bread and the grain and wine.
E kaumaha aku hoi ia i ka hipakane i mohai hoomalu no Iehova, me ka hinai berena hu ole: e kaumaha hoi ke kahuna i kana mohaiai a me kana mohaiinu.
18 ‘After that, you must [stand at] the entrance of the Sacred Tent and shave off your hair. Then you must put that hair in the fire that is under the [animal that has been sacrificed] on the altar to maintain fellowship with me.
A e amu ka Nazarite i kona poo i hoolaaia ma ka puka o ka halelewa o ke anaina; a e lawe ia i ka lauoho o kona poo i hoolaaia, a e waiho iloko o ke ahi malalo o na mohaihoomalu.
19 ‘The meat from the ram’s shoulder must be boiled. After it is cooked, the priest will take it along with one of the loaves of bread and one wafer which has been brushed with [olive] oil, and he will put them in your hands.
A e lawe ke kahuna i ka uha mua o ka hipakane i hoolapalapaia, me kekahi pai palaoa hu ole mailoko mai o ka hinai, a me kekahi wepa hu ole, a e kau aku ia mau mea ma na lima o ka Nazarite, mahope iho o kona amu ana i ka mea laa.
20 Then the priest will [take them back and] lift them up high to dedicate them to me. They now belong to the priest, and he is permitted to eat some of the meat from the ram’s shoulder and from its ribs and from one of its thighs, because that meat is his share of the sacrifice. After that, you will no longer be a Nazir-man, and you will again be permitted to drink wine.
A e hoali ke kahuna ia mau mea i mohaihoali imua o Iehova: oia ka mea laa na ke kahuna, me ka umauma hoali a me ka uha mua i kaikaiia. A mahope e pono no ka Nazarite ke inu i ka waina.
21 ‘Those are the regulations about the offerings that Nazir-men solemnly promise to bring to me to end their time of being dedicated to me. They must bring these offerings, but if they want to, they may bring additional offerings. And they must do everything that they solemnly promised to do when they dedicated themselves to me.’”
Oia ke kanawai no ka Nazarite hoohiki, a no kana mohai na Iehova no kona hookaawale ana; he okoa ka mea a kona lima i loaa'i: e like me ka hoohiki ana ana i hoohiki ai, pela no oia e hana'i ma ke kanawai o kona kaawale ana.
22 Yahweh also said to Moses/me,
Olelo mai la o Iehova ia Mose, i mai la,
23 “Tell Aaron and his sons that when they [ask me to] bless the people, they must say,
E olelo aku oe ia Aarona a me kana mau keiki, e i aku, Penei oukou e hoomaikai aku ai i na mamo a Iseraela, i ka i ana aku ia lakou,
24 ‘I desire that Yahweh will bless you and protect you,
Na Iehova oe e hoomaikai mai, a e malama mai;
25 and that he will smile at you and act kindly toward you,
Na Iehova e kau mai i ka malamalama o kona maka maluna iho ou, a e lokomaikai mai ia oe.
26 and that he will be good to you [IDM] and cause things to go well for you.’”
Na Iehova e maliu mai ia oe, a e haawi mai i malu nou.
27 Then Yahweh said, “If Aaron and his sons ask me to bless the Israeli people, truly I will bless them.”
A e kau aku lakou i ko'u inoa maluna iho o na mamo a Iseraela, a e hoopomaikai aku au ia lakou.
