Alawii 12
1 Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ,
The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
2 “Ĩra andũ a Isiraeli ũũ: ‘Mũndũ-wa-nja angĩgĩa nda aciare kahĩĩ, nĩagaikara arĩ na thaahu mĩthenya mũgwanja o ta ũrĩa aikaraga arĩ na thaahu ihinda rĩake rĩa mweri.
“Speak to the children of Israel, saying, ‘If a woman conceives, and bears a male child, then she shall be unclean seven days; as in the days of her monthly period she shall be unclean.
3 Na mũthenya wa kanana wakinya, kahĩĩ kau nĩgakaaruithio.
In the eighth day the flesh of his foreskin shall be circumcised.
4 Nake mũndũ-wa-nja ũcio no nginya eterere mĩthenya mĩrongo ĩtatũ na ĩtatũ nĩguo atherio thaahu wa kuura thakame. Ndakanahutie kĩndũ kĩamũre kana atoonye handũ-harĩa-haamũre o nginya matukũ ma gũtherio gwake mathire.
She shall continue in the blood of purification thirty-three days. She shall not touch any holy thing, nor come into the sanctuary, until the days of her purifying are completed.
5 No angĩciara mwana wa kairĩtu, agaaikara arĩ na thaahu ciumia igĩrĩ, o ta ũrĩa aikaraga arĩ na thaahu ihinda rĩake rĩa mweri. Ningĩ no nginya eterere mĩthenya mĩrongo ĩtandatũ na ĩtandatũ nĩguo atherio thaahu wa kuura thakame.
But if she bears a female child, then she shall be unclean two weeks, as in her period; and she shall continue in the blood of purification sixty-six days.
6 “‘Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa matukũ make ma gũtherio, marĩ ma kahĩĩ kana ma kairĩtu, makahinga-rĩ, nĩakarehera mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai gatũrũme ka mwaka ũmwe hau itoonyero-inĩ rĩa Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo, karĩ iruta rĩa njino, na atware gatutura kana ndirahũgĩ ya iruta rĩa kũhoroherio mehia.
“‘When the days of her purification are completed for a son or for a daughter, she shall bring to the priest at the door of the Tent of Meeting, a year old lamb for a burnt offering, and a young pigeon or a turtledove, for a sin offering.
7 Nake mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩagacirutĩra hau mbere ya Jehova nĩguo amũhoroherie, nake mũndũ-wa-nja ũcio nĩagathirwo nĩ thaahu wa kuuma gwa thakame. “‘Macio nĩmo mawatho ma mũndũ-wa-nja ũrĩa ũciarĩte kahĩĩ kana kairĩtu.
He shall offer it before the LORD, and make atonement for her; then she shall be cleansed from the fountain of her blood. “‘This is the law for her who bears, whether a male or a female.
8 Angĩkorwo ndangĩhota kũruta gatũrũme, nĩakaruta ndirahũgĩ igĩrĩ kana tũtutuura twĩrĩ, kamwe ka iruta rĩa njino na karĩa kangĩ ka iruta rĩa kũhoroherio mehia. Ũguo nĩguo mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai akaamũhoroheria, nake mũndũ-wa-nja ũcio nĩagathera.’”
If she cannot afford a lamb, then she shall take two turtledoves or two young pigeons: the one for a burnt offering, and the other for a sin offering. The priest shall make atonement for her, and she shall be clean.’”
