Numbers 6

1 Yahweh also said this to Moses/me:

LEUM GOD El sapkin nu sel Moses

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”].

elan sang oakwuk inge nu sin mwet Israel: Kutena mukul ku mutan su orala sie wuleang ku in moul oana sie Nazirite ac kisakunulang sifacna nu sin LEUM GOD

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.

fah srella liki mwe nim ku ac mwe sruhi. El fah tia nim kutena mwe nim ma orekla ke sronin grape, ku kang grape ku raisin.

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.

Ke lusenna pacl ma el oaoa mu el sie mwet Nazirite, el fah tia kang kutena ma su tuku ke oa in grape, finne ke fita ku ke kulun grape.

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.

Ke lusenna pacl el muta ye wuleang lun Nazirite, el fah tia kalla aunsifal ku resaela alut lal. El kapiri ke wuleang sac ke lusenna pacl el kisakunulang nu sin LEUM GOD, ac el fah fuhlela aunsifal ac alut lal uh in kapna.

6 And you must not go near a corpse during the time that you are a Nazir-man.

In len nukewa ma el srella nu sin LEUM GOD, el fah tia apkuran nu ke sie mano misa.

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.

Finne misa papa tumal ku nina kial, ku tamulel ac tamtael lal, el enenu na elan tia apkuran nu ke manolos ac akfohkfokyal sifacna. Aunsifal pa akkalemye lah el sriyukla nu sin God.

8 You are required to keep doing this all the time that you are dedicated to me in this special way.

Ke lusen pacl el sie mwet Nazirite el sriyukla ac akmutalyeyuk nu sin LEUM GOD.

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.

Fin fohkfokla aunsuf ma mutal lun sie Nazirite ke sripen oasr mwet se misa in kitin pacl ah na siskal, el enenu in soano len itkosr, na resaela aunsifal ac alut lal; ac ouinge el fah sifilpa nasnasla.

10 The next day you must bring two doves or two young pigeons to the priest at the entrance of the Sacred Tent.

Ke len se akoalkosr uh, el ac fah use luo wuleoa ku luo na wule nu sin mwet tol ke nien utyak lun Lohm Nuknuk Mutal sin LEUM GOD.

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.

Mwet tol el fah kisakin sie tuh in mwe kisa ke ma koluk, ac sie tuh in mwe kisa firir, in aknasnasyalla ke sripen el pusral mano misa se. Ke len sacna, mwet sac fah sifilpa akmutalye aunsifal,

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.

ac elan sifilpa kisakunang pacl lal nu sin LEUM GOD, fal nu ke sie mwet Nazirite. Pacl meet ah tia oaoa, mweyen aunsuf mutal lal meet ah fohkfokla. Ac nu ke kisa in akfalye ma koluk lukma, el fah use soko sheep mukul yac sie matwa.

13 ‘When the time that you promised to dedicate yourself to me is ended, go to the entrance of the Sacred Tent

Pa inge ma oakwuk nu sin sie Nazirite su aksafyela tari wuleang lal. El fah som nu ke acn in utyak lun Lohm Nuknuk Mutal

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.

ac kisakin tolkwe kosro ma wangin ma koluk ke mano nu sin LEUM GOD; soko sheep mukul yac se matwa nu ke mwe kisa firir, ac soko sheep mutan yac se matwa in mwe kisa ke ma koluk, ac soko ma mukul nu ke mwe kisa in akinsewowo.

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.

El fah oayapa sang sie fotoh in bread ma wangin mwe pulol kac: lof matoltol orekla ke flao karyak ke oil in olive, ac cake minini akmusrala ke oil in olive. Ma inge ac weang mwe sang ke flao ac wain.

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.

Mwet tol fah sang ma inge nukewa nu sin LEUM GOD ac oru mwe kisa ke ma koluk ac mwe kisa firir.

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.

El fah kisakin sheep mukul soko ah nu sin LEUM GOD tuh in mwe kisa in akinsewowo, ac kisakin wi fotoh in bread sac; el fah oayapa oru mwe kisa ke mwe mongo ac ke wain.

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.

Mwet Nazirite sac fah resaela aunsifal ke acn in utyak nu in Lohm Nuknuk Mutal uh, ac sang nu fin e se ma kisa in akinsewowo firriyukyak fac.

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.

Na ke pacl se poelyak tari ikwa se ke finpisen sheep mukul soko ah, mwet tol sac fah eisla wi lof matoltol soko ac sie cake minini uh liki fotoh sac, ac sang nu inpoun Nazirite sac.

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.

Toko, mwet tol el ac fah sang ma inge tuh in sie mwe sang sriyukla nu sin LEUM GOD. Ma inge sie mwe sang mutal nu sin mwet tol sac, in weang iniwa ac nien sheep mukul soko ah, su ke oakwuk lun ma sap uh ac ma lun mwet tol sac. Tukun ma inge, mwet Nazirite sac ac ku in nim wain.

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.’”

Pa inge ma sap nu sin mwet Nazirite uh. Tusruktu sie Nazirite fin wulela in sang yohk liki ma sap nu sel uh, el fah akfalye in oana ke el wulela uh.

22 Yahweh also said to Moses/me,

LEUM GOD El sapkin nu sel Moses

23 “Tell Aaron and his sons that when they [ask me to] bless the people, they must say,

tuh elan fahk nu sel Aaron ac wen natul in orekmakin kas inge ke elos akinsewowoye mwet Israel:

24 ‘I desire that Yahweh will bless you and protect you,

LEUM GOD Elan akinsewowoyekowos ac karingin kowos.

25 and that he will smile at you and act kindly toward you,

LEUM GOD Elan kulang ac pakoten nu suwos.

26 and that he will be good to you [IDM] and cause things to go well for you.’”

LEUM GOD Elan ngeti nu fowos ke lungse, ac sot misla nu suwos.

27 Then Yahweh said, “If Aaron and his sons ask me to bless the Israeli people, truly I will bless them.”

Ac LEUM GOD El fahk, “Elos fin fahkak Inek in mwe akinsewowo nu fin mwet Israel uh, na nga fah akinsewowoyalos.”
