< Alawii 14 >
1 Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ,
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
2 “Maya nĩmo mawatho makoniĩ mũndũ mũrũaru hĩndĩ yake ya gũtherio thaahu, rĩrĩa aarehwo kũrĩ mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai:
This is the rite of a leper, when he is to be cleansed: he shall be brought to the priest:
3 Mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩakoima nja ya kambĩ amũrore. Angĩkorwo mũndũ ũcio nĩahonete mũrimũ ũcio wa kũgwatanio wa ngoothi,
Who going out of the camp when he shall And that the leprosy is cleansed,
4 mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩagaathana areherwo nyoni igĩrĩ irĩ muoyo na itarĩ na thaahu, na kamũtĩ ka mũtarakwa, na rũrigi rwa rangi wa gakarakũ, na mũthobi irehwo nĩ ũndũ wa mũndũ ũcio ũgũtherio.
Shall command him that is to be purified, to offer for himself two living sparrows, which it is lawful to eat, and cedar wood, and scarlet, and hyssop.
5 Mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai acooke aathane atĩ nyoni ĩmwe yacio ĩthĩnjĩrwo igũrũ rĩa nyũngũ ya rĩũmba ĩrĩ na maaĩ matahĩtwo o hĩndĩ ĩyo.
And he shall command one of the sparrows to be immolated in an earthen vessel over living waters:
6 Ningĩ acooke oe nyoni ĩyo ĩrĩ muoyo, amĩtobokie, hamwe na kamũtĩ kau ka mũtarakwa, na rũrigi rũu rwa gakarakũ na mũthobi thĩinĩ wa thakame ya nyoni ĩyo ĩthĩnjĩirwo igũrũ wa maaĩ macio matahĩtwo o hĩndĩ ĩyo.
But the other that is alive he shall dip, with the cedar wood, and the scarlet and the hyssop, in the blood of the sparrow that is immolated:
7 Mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩakaminjĩria mũndũ ũcio ũratherio mũrimũ ũcio ũngĩgwatanio thakame ĩyo maita mũgwanja, na acooke oige atĩ mũndũ ũcio ndarĩ na thaahu. Ningĩ acooke arekererie nyoni ĩyo ĩngĩ ĩrĩ muoyo yũmbũke ĩthiĩ werũ-inĩ.
Wherewith he shall sprinkle him that is to be cleansed seven times, that he may be rightly purified: and he shall let go the living sparrow, that it may fly into the field.
8 “Mũndũ ũcio ũtheretio no nginya athambie nguo ciake, no nginya enjwo njuĩrĩ yake yothe na ethambe na maaĩ nĩguo athirwo nĩ thaahu. Thuutha ũcio, no atoonye kambĩ; no rĩrĩ, no nginya aikare nja ya hema yake mĩthenya mũgwanja.
And when the man hath washed his clothes, he shall shave all the hair of his body, and shall be washed with water: and being purified, he shall enter into the camp, yet so that he tarry without his own tent seven days:
9 Mũthenya wa mũgwanja no nginya enjwo njuĩrĩ yake yothe; no nginya enjwo mũtwe, na nderu, na ngobe, na njuĩrĩ iria ingĩ ciake ciothe. Na no nginya athambie nguo ciake na ethambe na maaĩ, nake nĩagathirwo nĩ thaahu.
And on the seventh day he shall shave the hair of his head, and his beard and his eyebrows, and the hair of all his body. And having washed again his clothes, and his body,
10 “Mũthenya wa kanana wakinya, no nginya atwarĩre mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai tũtũrũme twĩrĩ na kamwatĩ, o kamwe ka ũkũrũ wa mwaka ũmwe, na ciothe ikorwo itarĩ na kaũũgũ, atware hamwe na icunjĩ ithatũ cia ikũmi cia eba ya mũtu mũhinyu ũtukanĩtio na maguta nĩ ũndũ wa iruta rĩa mũtu, na kabakũri kamwe ka maguta.
On the eighth day he shall take two lambs without blemish, and an ewe of a year old without blemish, and three tenths of flour tempered with oil for a sacrifice, and a sextary of oil apart.
11 Mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũrĩa ũgaatua atĩ mũndũ ũcio ndarĩ na thaahu nĩagatwara mũndũ ũcio ũratherio hamwe na maruta make mbere ya Jehova hau itoonyero-inĩ rĩa Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo.
And when the priest that purifieth the man, hath presented him, and all these things before the Lord, at the door of the tabernacle of the testimony,
12 “Ningĩ mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũcio nĩakoya gatũrũme kamwe gatuo, akarute karĩ iruta rĩa mahĩtia, hamwe na kabakũri kau ka maguta; nĩagacithũngũthĩria hau mbere ya Jehova ituĩke iruta rĩa gũthũngũthio.
He shall take a. lamb, and offer it for a trespass offering with the sextary of oil: and having offered all before the Lord,
13 Nĩagathĩnjĩra gatũrũme kau handũ harĩa hatheru, harĩa iruta rĩa kũhoroherio mehia na iruta rĩa njino ithĩnjagĩrwo. O ta ũrĩa iruta rĩa kũhoroherio mehia rĩrĩ rĩa mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai-rĩ, no taguo iruta rĩa mahĩtia rĩrĩ rĩake, rĩu nĩ iruta itheru mũno makĩria.
He shall immolate the lamb, where the victim for sin is wont to be immolated, and the holocaust, that is, in the holy place: for as that which is for sin, so also the victim for a trespass offering pertaineth to the priest: it is holy of holies.
14 Mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũcio nĩakoya thakame ĩmwe ya iruta rĩu rĩa mahĩtia na amĩhake moni ya gũtũ kwa ũrĩo kwa mũndũ ũcio ũratherio, na kĩara kĩrĩa kĩnene gĩa guoko gwake kwa ũrĩo, na kĩara kĩrĩa kĩnene gĩa kũgũrũ gwake kwa ũrĩo.
And the priest taking of the blood of the victim that was immolated for trespass, shall put it upon the tip of the right ear of him that is cleansed, and upon the thumb of his right hand and the great toe of his right foot:
15 Mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩagacooka oe maguta mamwe marĩa marĩ kabakũri-inĩ amaitĩrĩre rũhĩ rwake rwa mwena wa ũmotho,
And he shall pour of the sextary of oil into his own left. hand,
16 acooke atobokie kĩara gĩake kĩa muoroto kĩa ũrĩo maguta-inĩ macio marĩ rũhĩ rwake, aminjaminje maguta mamwe ma macio marĩ kĩara gĩake mbere ya Jehova maita mũgwanja.
And shall dip his right finger in it, and sprinkle it before the Lord seven times.
17 Mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũcio nĩakoya maguta mamwe ma marĩa matigaire rũhĩ rwake amahake moni ya gũtũ kwa ũrĩo kwa mũndũ ũcio ũratherio, na kĩara kĩrĩa kĩnene gĩa guoko gwake kwa ũrĩo, na kĩara kĩrĩa kĩnene gĩa kũgũrũ gwake kwa ũrĩo, igũrũ rĩa thakame ĩyo ya iruta rĩa mahĩtia.
And the rest of the oil in his left band, he shall pour upon the tip of the right ear of him that is cleansed, and upon the thumb of his right hand and the great toe of his right foot, and upon the blood that was shed for trespass,
18 Namo maguta macio mangĩ marĩ rũhĩ rwake, mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩakamahaka mũtwe wa mũndũ ũcio ũratherio nĩguo amũhoroherie hau mbere ya Jehova.
And upon his head.
19 “Ningĩ mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩakaruta igongona rĩa kũhoroherio mehia ahoroherie mũndũ ũcio ũratherio thaahu wake. Thuutha ũcio, mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩagathĩnja iruta rĩa njino
And he shall pray for him before the Lord, and shall offer the sacrifice for sin: then shall he immolate the holocaust,
20 na arĩrutĩre kĩgongona-inĩ, hamwe na iruta rĩa mũtu nĩguo amũhoroherie, nake athirwo nĩ thaahu.
And put it on the altar with the libations thereof, and the man shall be rightly cleansed.
21 “No rĩrĩ angĩkorwo mũndũ ũcio nĩ mũthĩĩni na ndangĩhota kũruta indo icio, no nginya arute gatũrũme kamwe gatuĩke iruta rĩa mahĩtia rĩa gũthũngũthio nĩguo rĩmũhoroherie, hamwe na gĩcunjĩ gĩa ikũmi kĩa eba ya mũtu ũrĩa mũhinyu mũno ũtukanĩtio na maguta, rĩtuĩke iruta rĩa mũtu, na kabakũri ka maguta,
But if he be poor, and his hand cannot find the things aforesaid: he shall take a lamb for an offering for trespass, that the priest may pray for him, and a tenth part of hour tempered with oil for a sacrifice, and a sextary of oil,
22 na ndirahũgĩ igĩrĩ kana tũtutuura twĩrĩ, o iria angĩhota kũruta, ĩmwe ĩtuĩke ya iruta rĩa kũhoroherio mehia, na ĩrĩa ĩngĩ ya iruta rĩa njino.
And two turtles or two young pigeons, of which one may be for sin, and the other for a holocaust:
23 “Mũthenya wa kanana wakinya no nginya acirehe kũrĩ mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai hau itoonyero rĩa Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo nĩgeetha athererio hau mbere ya Jehova.
And he shall offer them on the eighth day of his purification to the priest, at the door of the tabernacle of the testimony before the Lord.
24 Nake mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩakoya gatũrũme kau ka iruta rĩa mahĩtia, hamwe na kabakũri ka maguta, acithũngũthĩrie mbere ya Jehova ituĩke iruta rĩa gũthũngũthio.
And the priest receiving the lamb for trespass, and the sextary of oil, shall elevate them together.
25 Nĩagathĩnja gatũrũme ka iruta rĩa mahĩtia na acooke oe thakame ĩmwe yako amĩhake moni ya gũtũ kwa ũrĩo kwa mũndũ ũcio ũratherio, na amĩhake kĩara kĩrĩa kĩnene gĩa guoko gwake kwa ũrĩo na kĩara kĩrĩa kĩnene gĩa kũgũrũ gwake kwa ũrĩo.
And the lamb being immolated, he shall put of the blood thereof upon the tip of the right ear of him that is cleansed, and upon the thumb of his right hand, and the great toe of his right foot:
26 Mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩagekĩra maguta mamwe rũhĩ rwa mwena wake wa ũmotho,
But he shall pour part of the oil into his own left hand,
27 na aminjaminje maguta mamwe ma macio marĩ rũhĩ rwake na kĩara kĩa muoroto gĩa guoko gwake kwa ũrĩo, hau mbere ya Jehova, maita mũgwanja.
And dipping the finger of his right hand in it, he shall sprinkle it seven times before the Lord:
28 Maguta mamwe ma macio marĩ rũhĩ rwake amahake o harĩa aahakĩte thakame ya iruta rĩa mahĩtia, moni-inĩ ya gũtũ kwa ũrĩo kwa mũndũ ũcio ũratherio, na kĩara kĩrĩa kĩnene gĩa guoko gwake kwa ũrĩo na kĩara kĩrĩa kĩnene gĩa kũgũrũ gwake kwa ũrĩo.
And he shall touch the tip of the right ear of him that is cleansed, and the thumb of his right hand and the great toe of his right foot, in the place of the blood that was shed for trespass.
29 Namo maguta macio mangĩ marĩ rũhĩ rwake, mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩakamahaka mũtwe wa mũndũ ũcio ũratherio, nĩguo amũhoroherie hau mbere ya Jehova.
And the other part of the oil that is in his left hand, he shall pour upon the head of the purified person, that he may appease the Lord for him.
30 Ningĩ nĩakaruta igongona rĩa ndirahũgĩ kana tũtutuura, o iria mũndũ ũcio angĩhota kũruta,
And he shall offer a turtle, or young pigeon,
31 ĩmwe ĩrĩ iruta rĩa kũhoroherio mehia na ĩyo ĩngĩ ĩrĩ iruta rĩa njino, o hamwe na iruta rĩa mũtu. Ũguo nĩguo mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai akaahoroheria mũndũ ũcio ũratherio hau mbere ya Jehova.”
One for trespass, and the other for a holocaust, with their libations.
32 Macio nĩmo mawatho makoniĩ mũndũ o wothe ũrĩa ũrĩ na mũrimũ wa ngoothi ũngĩgwatanio, na ndangĩhota kũruta iruta rĩrĩa rĩathanĩtwo rĩa gũtherio gwake.
This is the sacrifice of a leper, that is not able to have all things that appertain to his cleansing.
33 Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa na Harũni atĩrĩ,
And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying:
34 “Rĩrĩa mũgaakinya bũrũri wa Kaanani, ũrĩa ngũmũhe ũtuĩke igai rĩanyu, na niĩ njĩkĩre ũgumu ũgũthegea nyũmba thĩinĩ bũrũri-inĩ ũcio-rĩ,
When you shall be come into the land of Chanaan, which I will give you for a possession, if there be the plague of leprosy in a house,
35 mwene nyũmba ĩyo no nginya athiĩ akeere mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai atĩrĩ, ‘Nĩnyonete kĩndũ kĩhaana ta ũgumu thĩinĩ wa nyũmba yakwa.’
He whose house it is, shall go and tell the priest, saying: It seemeth to me, that there is the plague of leprosy in my house,
36 Mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũcio nĩagaathana indo ciothe irutwo nyũmba ĩyo atanatoonya kũrora ũgumu ũcio, nĩgeetha gũtikagĩe kĩndũ o na kĩmwe kĩrĩ nyũmba ĩyo kĩngĩtuuo atĩ kĩrĩ na thaahu. Thuutha wa ũguo mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩagatoonya arore nyũmba ĩyo.
And he shall command, that they carry forth all things out of the house, before he go into it, and see whether it have the leprosy, lest all things become unclean that are in the house. And afterwards he shall go in to view the leprosy of the house.
37 Nĩakarora ũgumu rũthingo-inĩ, na aakorwo rũrĩ na tũrima twa rangi ta wa nyeki nduru kana wa rangi mũtune tũhaana ta tũtoonyete thĩinĩ wa rũthingo-rĩ,
And if he see in the walls thereof as it were little dints, disfigured with paleness or redness, and lower than all the rest,
38 mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũcio nĩakoima nja ya nyũmba ĩyo na acooke amĩhinge gwa kahinda ka mĩthenya mũgwanja.
He shall go out of the door of the house, and forthwith shut it up seven days,
39 Mũthenya wa mũgwanja wakinya, mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩagacooka athiĩ arore nyũmba ĩyo. Angĩona ũgumu ũcio nĩũthegeete thingo-inĩ,
And returning on the seventh day, he shall look upon it. If he find that the leprosy is spread,
40 nĩagaathana mahiga marĩa marĩ na ũgumu mamomorwo na mateo handũ hatarĩ hatheru na kũu nja ya itũũra.
He shall command, that the stones wherein the leprosy is, be taken out, and cast without the city into an unclean place:
41 Nĩagaathana thingo ciothe ikũrũrwo mwena wa na thĩinĩ, namo makũrũro macio mateo kĩara-inĩ na kũu nja ya itũũra.
And that the house be scraped on the inside round about, and the dust of the scraping be scattered without the city into an unclean place:
42 Ningĩ moe mahiga mangĩ make namo mathenya macio mamomoretwo, na macooke moe rĩũmba rĩerũ mathinge nyũmba ĩyo narĩo.
And that other stones be laid in the place of them that were taken away, and the house be plastered with other mortar.
43 “Ũgumu ũcio ũngĩcooka woneke rĩngĩ nyũmba-inĩ ĩyo, thuutha wa mahiga macio kũmomorwo, na thingo icio gũkũrũrwo na igathiingwo rĩngĩ-rĩ,
But if, after the stones be taken out, and the dust scraped off, and it be plastered with other earth,
44 mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩagacooka athiĩ amĩrore rĩngĩ, na angĩona ũgumu ũcio nĩũthegeete nyũmba-inĩ ĩyo, ũcio nĩ ũgumu wa kwananga; nyũmba ĩyo ĩrĩ na thaahu.
The priest going in perceive that the leprosy is returned, and the walls full of spots, it is a lasting leprosy, and the house is unclean:
45 No nginya ĩmomorwo: mahiga mayo, na mbaũ, na thingo ciothe, nacio indo icio itwarwo handũ hatarĩ hatheru na kũu nja ya itũũra.
And they shall destroy it forthwith, and shall cast the stones and timber thereof, and all the dust without the town into an unclean place.
46 “Mũndũ o wothe ũngĩtoonya nyũmba ĩyo hĩndĩ ĩyo ĩrĩ hinge nĩakanyiitwo nĩ thaahu o nginya hwaĩ-inĩ.
He that entereth into the house when it is shut, shall be unclean until evening,
47 Mũndũ o wothe ũngĩkoma kana arĩĩre irio nyũmba ĩyo, no nginya athambie nguo ciake.
And he that sleepeth in it, and eateth any thing, shall wash his clothes.
48 “No rĩrĩ, mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai angĩũka kũmĩrora akore atĩ ũgumu ũcio ndũthegeete thuutha wa nyũmba ĩyo gũthingwo rĩngĩ-rĩ, nĩagatua atĩ nyũmba ĩyo ndĩrĩ na thaahu, nĩgũkorwo ũgumu ũcio nĩũthirĩte.
But if the priest going in perceive that the leprosy is not spread in the house, after it was plastered again, he shall purify it, it being cured,
49 Nĩgeetha atherie nyũmba ĩyo, nĩakoya nyoni igĩrĩ, na kamũtĩ ka mũtarakwa, na rũrigi rwa rangi wa gakarakũ, na mũthobi.
And for the purification thereof he shall take two sparrows, and cedar wood, and scarlet, and hyssop:
50 Nĩagathĩnjĩra nyoni ĩmwe ya icio igũrũ rĩa nyũngũ ya rĩũmba ĩrĩ na maaĩ matahĩtwo o hĩndĩ ĩyo.
And having immolated one sparrow In an earthen vessel over living waters,
51 Acooke oe kamũtĩ ka mũtarakwa, na mũthobi, na rũrigi rwa rangi wa gakarakũ na nyoni ĩyo ĩrĩ muoyo, acitobokie thĩinĩ wa thakame ĩyo ya nyoni ĩyo thĩnje, na maaĩ-inĩ macio matahĩtwo o hĩndĩ ĩyo, aminjaminjĩrie nyũmba ĩyo maita mũgwanja.
He shall take the cedar wood, and the hyssop, and the scarlet, and the living sparrow, and shall dip all in the blood of the sparrow that is immolated, and in the living water, and he shall sprinkle the house seven times:
52 Nĩagatheria nyũmba ĩyo na thakame ya nyoni ĩyo, na maaĩ macio matahĩtwo o hĩndĩ ĩyo, na nyoni ĩyo ĩrĩ muoyo, na kamũtĩ kau ka mũtarakwa, na mũthobi ũcio, na rũrigi rũu rwa rangi wa gakarakũ.
And shall purify it as well with the blood of the sparrow, as with the living water, and with the living sparrow, and with the cedar wood, and the hyssop, and the scarlet.
53 Acooke arekererie nyoni ĩyo ĩrĩ muoyo yũmbũke ĩthiĩ na kũu werũ-inĩ, nja ya itũũra. Ũguo nĩguo akaahoroheria nyũmba ĩyo, nayo nĩĩgathirwo nĩ thaahu.”
And when he hath let go the sparrow to fly freely away into the field, he shall pray for the house, and it shall be rightly cleansed.
54 Macio nĩmo mawatho makoniĩ mũrimũ o ro wothe wa ngoothi ũrĩa ũngĩgwatanio, na ũhere,
This is the law of every kind of leprosy and stroke.
55 na ũgumu ũrĩ nguo-inĩ kana thĩinĩ wa nyũmba,
Of the leprosy of garments and houses,
56 na handũ haimbu, na handũ harĩ na mũtũnda, kana handũ hakaragacũku,
Of a scar and of blisters breaking out, of a shining spot, and when the colours are diversely changed:
57 nĩguo kũmenyekage rĩrĩa kĩndũ gĩtarĩ na thaahu na rĩrĩa kĩrĩ na thaahu. Macio nĩmo mawatho makoniĩ mĩrimũ ya ngoothi ĩrĩa ĩngĩgwatanio, na makoniĩ ũgumu.
That it may be known when a thing is clean or unclean.
