Numbers 18
1 The LORD said to Aaron, “You and your sons and your fathers’ house with you shall bear the iniquity of the sanctuary; and you and your sons with you shall bear the iniquity of your priesthood.
Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Harun niya, “In gi yawuoti kod od wuonu nyaka ukaw tingʼ mag richo motimne kama ler mar lemo, kendo in-gi yawuoti kende ema nyaka ukaw tingʼ richo motimne jodolo.
2 Bring your brothers also, the tribe of Levi, the tribe of your father, near with you, that they may be joined to you, and minister to you; but you and your sons with you shall be before the Tent of the Testimony.
Kel jo-Lawi weteu koa e dhoutu mag anywola mondo oriwre kodi kendo gikonyu ka in kod yawuote tiyo e nyim Hema mar Sandug Rapar.
3 They shall keep your commands and the duty of the whole Tent; only they shall not come near to the vessels of the sanctuary and to the altar, that they not die, neither they nor you.
Nyaka giwinju kendo giti tije duto mag Hema, to kik gidhi machiegni gi gig kama ler mar lemo kata mag kendo mar misango, ka ok kamano to gin kod un duto ubiro tho.
4 They shall be joined to you and keep the responsibility of the Tent of Meeting, for all the service of the Tent. A stranger shall not come near to you.
Nyaka giriwre kodi kendo gikaw tich mar rito Hemb Romo kaachiel gi tije duto manie Hema, kendo onge ngʼat machielo moyiene biro machiegni gi kama intie.
5 “You shall perform the duty of the sanctuary and the duty of the altar, that there be no more wrath on the children of Israel.
“Nyaka ikaw tich mar rito kama ler mar lemo kod kendo mar misango, mondo mi masira kik lwar kuom jo-Israel kendo.
6 Behold, I myself have taken your brothers the Levites from amongst the children of Israel. They are a gift to you, dedicated to the LORD, to do the service of the Tent of Meeting.
An awuon aseyiero jo-Lawi weteni koa kuom jo-Israel kaka chiwo ne un, mowal ne Jehova Nyasaye mondo oti e Hemb Romo.
7 You and your sons with you shall keep your priesthood for everything of the altar, and for that within the veil. You shall serve. I give you the service of the priesthood as a gift. The stranger who comes near shall be put to death.”
To in kod yawuoti kende ema onego bed jodolo kaluwore gi gik moko duto manie kendo mar misango kod mago mantiere ei pasia. Amiyou tich mar bedo jodolo kaka chiwo. Ngʼato angʼata ma osudo machiegni gi kama ler mar lemo nyaka negi.”
8 The LORD spoke to Aaron, “Behold, I myself have given you the command of my wave offerings, even all the holy things of the children of Israel. I have given them to you by reason of the anointing, and to your sons, as a portion forever.
Eka Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Harun niya, “An awuon aseketi jarit mar chiwo duto mokelna; chiwo maler duto ma jo-Israel omiya amiyi kod yawuoti kaka pok maru kendo mano ema unuyud pile.
9 This shall be yours of the most holy things from the fire: every offering of theirs, even every meal offering of theirs, and every sin offering of theirs, and every trespass offering of theirs, which they shall render to me, shall be most holy for you and for your sons.
Nyaka ikaw thoth bath chiwo duto maler ma ok owangʼ e mach. Koa kuom mich duto ma gikelona kaka chiwo maler moloyo, bedni en chiwo mar cham, kata mar misango mar golo richo kata mar pwodhruok, pokno en mari kod yawuoti.
10 You shall eat of it like the most holy things. Every male shall eat of it. It shall be holy to you.
Chame kaka gima ler moloyo; chwo duto nochame. Nyaka ikawe kaka gima ler.
11 “This is yours, too: the wave offering of their gift, even all the wave offerings of the children of Israel. I have given them to you, and to your sons and to your daughters with you, as a portion forever. Everyone who is clean in your house shall eat of it.
“Gimoro amora mowal tenge koa e mich mag misango mifwayo mar jo-Israel bende nobed mari. Achiwo ma ne in kod yawuoti gi nyigi kaka pok maru mapile pile. Ngʼato angʼata mantiere e odi mopwodhore maler nyalo chame.
12 “I have given to you all the best of the oil, all the best of the vintage, and of the grain, the first fruits of them which they give to the LORD.
“Amiyou mo zeituni mayom duto kod divai manyien mayom duto kod cham ma gichiwone Jehova Nyasaye kaka olemo mokwongo mar keyo margi.
13 The first-ripe fruits of all that is in their land, which they bring to the LORD, shall be yours. Everyone who is clean in your house shall eat of it.
Olembe mokwongo duto moa e puodho ma gikelone Jehova Nyasaye nobed mari. Ngʼato angʼata mantiere e odi mopwodhore maler nyalo chame.
14 “Everything devoted in Israel shall be yours.
“Gimoro amora mochiwne Jehova Nyasaye chuth nobed magu.
15 Everything that opens the womb, of all flesh which they offer to the LORD, both of man and animal, shall be yours. Nevertheless, you shall surely redeem the firstborn of man, and you shall redeem the firstborn of unclean animals.
Nyodo mokwongo mar ich, obed dhano kata chiayo, mochiwne Jehova Nyasaye en mari. To nyaka uwar wuowi makayo moro amora kod kayo madichwo moro amora mar jamni ma ok ler.
16 You shall redeem those who are to be redeemed of them from a month old, according to your estimation, for five shekels of money, according to the shekel of the sanctuary, which weighs twenty gerahs.
Ka giromo dwe achiel, nyaka iwargi e nengo mar wero ma en shekel abich mar fedha, kaluwore gi shekel mar kama ler mar lemo, ma pekne romo gera piero ariyo.
17 “But you shall not redeem the firstborn of a cow, or the firstborn of a sheep, or the firstborn of a goat. They are holy. You shall sprinkle their blood on the altar, and shall burn their fat for an offering made by fire, for a pleasant aroma to the LORD.
“To kik iwar kayo ma rwath, rombo kata diel; nikech giler. Kir rembgi e kendo mar misango kendo iwangʼ mo mawuok kuomgi kaka misango miwangʼo gi mach, ma en gima dungʼ tik mangʼwe ngʼar mamoro Jehova Nyasaye.
18 Their meat shall be yours, as the wave offering breast and as the right thigh, it shall be yours.
Ring jamnigo gin magu, mana kaka misango mifwayo mar agoko kod em korachwich bende maru.
19 All the wave offerings of the holy things which the children of Israel offer to the LORD, I have given you and your sons and your daughters with you, as a portion forever. It is a covenant of salt forever before the LORD to you and to your offspring with you.”
Gimoro amora mowal tenge koa kuom misengini maler ma jo-Israel ochiwo ne Jehova Nyasaye, amiyoi gi yawuoti kod nyigi kaka pok maru mapile. En singruok ma ok rum e nyim Jehova Nyasaye ne in kaachiel gi nyikwayi.”
20 The LORD said to Aaron, “You shall have no inheritance in their land, neither shall you have any portion amongst them. I am your portion and your inheritance amongst the children of Israel.
Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Harun niya, “Ok iniyud girkeni mora amora e piny jogi, kata pok moro amora ok inibedgo e kindgi nimar an e pok maru kendo girkeni maru e kind jo-Israel.
21 “To the children of Levi, behold, I have given all the tithe in Israel for an inheritance, in return for their service which they serve, even the service of the Tent of Meeting.
“Amiyo jo-Lawi achiel kuom apar duto mantiere e Israel kaka girkeni margi ka achulogigo kuom tich ma gitiyo e Hemb Romo.
22 Henceforth the children of Israel shall not come near the Tent of Meeting, lest they bear sin, and die.
Chakre kawuono jo-Israel ok onego dhi machiegni gi Hemb Romo, ka ok kamano to ibiro kumogi kuom richo mag-gi kendo gibiro tho.
23 But the Levites shall do the service of the Tent of Meeting, and they shall bear their iniquity. It shall be a statute forever throughout your generations. Amongst the children of Israel, they shall have no inheritance.
En mana jo-Lawi ema oyienegi mar tiyo tij Hemb Romo kendo kaw tingʼ duto mag richo motimie Hemb Romo. Ma en chik mogik makende ne tiengʼ mabiro. Ok giniyud girkeni moro amora kuom jo-Israel.
24 For the tithe of the children of Israel, which they offer as a wave offering to the LORD, I have given to the Levites for an inheritance. Therefore I have said to them, ‘Amongst the children of Israel they shall have no inheritance.’”
Kata kamano, amiyo jo-Lawi kaka girkeni margi achiel kuom apar ma jo-Israel ochiwo kaka misango ne Jehova Nyasaye. Mano emomiyo ne awacho kama kuomgi: ‘Ok giniyud girkeni e dier jo-Israel.’”
25 The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya,
26 “Moreover you shall speak to the Levites, and tell them, ‘When you take of the children of Israel the tithe which I have given you from them for your inheritance, then you shall offer up a wave offering of it for the LORD, a tithe of the tithe.
“Wuo gi jo-Lawi kendo iwachnegi kama: ‘Ka uyudo koa kuom jo-Israel achiel kuom apar ma amiyou kaka girkeni magu, to nyaka un bende ugol achiel kuom apar mar achiel kuom aparno kaka chiwo ne Jehova Nyasaye.
27 Your wave offering shall be credited to you, as though it were the grain of the threshing floor, and as the fullness of the wine press.
Chiwouno nokwan kaka cham moa kar dino kata kaka divai mimadho moa kar biyo divai.
28 Thus you also shall offer a wave offering to the LORD of all your tithes, which you receive of the children of Israel; and of it you shall give the LORD’s wave offering to Aaron the priest.
E yo machalo kama ema un bende ubiro chiwoe chiwo ne Jehova Nyasaye koa kuom achiel kuom apar duto muyudo koa kuom jo-Israel. E achiel kuom apargo, nyaka ichiw pok mar Jehova Nyasaye ne Harun, jadolo.
29 Out of all your gifts, you shall offer every wave offering to the LORD, of all its best parts, even the holy part of it.’
Nyaka ichiw pok mar Jehova Nyasaye gino maber kendo maler moloyo mar gik moko duto ma omiu.’
30 “Therefore you shall tell them, ‘When you heave its best from it, then it shall be credited to the Levites as the increase of the threshing floor, and as the increase of the wine press.
“Wachne jo-Lawi kama: ‘Ka ichiwo mano maber, to ibiro kwane ne in kaka gima oa e kar dino cham kata kar biyo divai.
31 You may eat it anywhere, you and your households, for it is your reward in return for your service in the Tent of Meeting.
Un kod jouteu duto unyalo chamo bathe moko kamoro amora, nimar en pok maru ne tich mutiyo e Hemb Romo.
32 You shall bear no sin by reason of it, when you have heaved from it its best. You shall not profane the holy things of the children of Israel, that you not die.’”
Ka usegolone Jehova Nyasaye gik mabeyo moloyo kamano, to ok unubed joketho kuom wachno, kendo ok nobed ni udwanyo gik maler ma jo-Israel ochiwo kendo ok ubi tho.’”
