Alawii 22
1 Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ,
And Yahweh spake unto Moses, saying:
2 “Ĩra Harũni na ariũ ake matĩĩage maruta marĩa matheru marĩa andũ a Isiraeli maanyamũrĩire, nĩgeetha matikanathaahie rĩĩtwa rĩakwa itheru. Niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova.
Speak unto Aaron, and unto his sons, That they hold sacredly aloof from the holy things of the sons of Israel, so as not to profane my holy name, —in the things which they are hallowing unto me—I, am Yahweh.
3 “Meere atĩrĩ, ‘Njiarwa iria igooka thuutha, mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ wa njiaro cianyu angĩgakorwo ethaahĩtie, nake akuhĩrĩrie maruta marĩa matheru marĩa andũ a Isiraeli maamũrĩire Jehova, mũndũ ũcio no nginya aingatwo, ehere mbere yakwa. Niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova.
Say unto them—Unto your generations, as touching any man who cometh near from among any of your seed, unto the hallowed things which the sons of Israel may hallow unto Yahweh, while his uncleanness is upon him, then shall that person be cut off from before me—I, am Yahweh.
4 “‘Mũndũ wa njiaro cia Harũni angĩkorwo arĩ na mũrimũ wa ngoothi ũngĩgwatanio, kana mwĩrĩ wake ũkoira, ndakaarĩa indo iria theru irutĩtwo cia maruta, nginya agaathirwo nĩ thaahu. Ningĩ nĩakanyiitwo nĩ thaahu angĩkaahutia kĩndũ gĩthaahie nĩ kĩimba, kana ahutie mũndũ o wothe ũrĩa uumĩtwo nĩ hinya wa arũme,
No man soever of the seed of Aaron who is a leper, or hath a flux, shall eat of the holy things, until he be clean, —And as for him who toucheth anything that is unclean by the dead, or a man whose seed goeth from him;
5 o na kana angĩhutia kĩndũ o gĩothe kĩrĩa gĩtambaga thĩ kĩrĩa kĩngĩmũgwatia thaahu, kana ahutie mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ ũngĩtũma anyiitwo nĩ thaahu, o na thaahu ũcio ũngĩkorwo nĩ ũrĩkũ.
or a man who toucheth any creeping thing, which is unclean to him, —or [toucheth] any human being who hath uncleanness, to the extent of any thing that maketh him unclean,
6 Mũndũ ũrĩa ũngĩhutia kĩndũ o na kĩrĩkũ ta kĩu nĩakanyiitwo nĩ thaahu o nginya hwaĩ-inĩ. Ndakanarĩe kĩndũ o na kĩrĩkũ kĩa maruta marĩa maamũre, no akorirwo ethambĩte mwĩrĩ na maaĩ.
any person who toucheth any such, shall then be unclean until the evening, —and shall not eat of the hallowed things, unless he bathe his flesh in water.
7 Riũa rĩathũa nĩagathirwo nĩ thaahu, na thuutha ũcio no arĩe maruta marĩa maamũre, tondũ nĩcio irio ciake.
When the sun tooth in, then is he clean, —and thereafter, he may eat of the hallowed things, for, his food, it is.
8 Ndakanarĩe nyama cia nyamũ ĩkuĩte, kana nyama cia nyamũ ĩtambuurĩtwo nĩ nyamũ cia gĩthaka, nĩguo ndakae gũthaahio nĩcio. Niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova.
That which dieth of itself or is torn in pieces, shall he not eat to make himself unclean thereby, —I, am Yahweh.
9 “‘Athĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩmarũmagie mawatho makwa nĩgeetha matikahĩtagie, nao makue nĩ ũndũ wa kwaga gũtĩĩa mawatho macio. Niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova ũrĩa ũmatheragia.
Therefore shall they keep my charge, and shall not bear, for it, sin, and die therein, when they profane it, —I—Yahweh, am hallowing them.
10 “‘Gũtirĩ mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ ũtarĩ wa nyũmba ya mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai wagĩrĩirwo nĩ kũrĩa maruta marĩa matheru, o na mũgeni wa mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai, kana mũruti wa wĩra gwake o nao matigacirĩe.
And, no stranger, shall eat what is hallowed, —neither, one who dwelleth with a priest nor a hireling shall eat what is hallowed.
11 No mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai angĩgũra ngombo na mbeeca, kana ngombo ĩciarĩrwo gwake mũciĩ, ngombo ĩyo no ĩrĩe irio ciake.
But when, a priest, buyeth any person, as the purchase of his silver, he may eat thereof, —and, the children of his household, they, may eat of his food.
12 Mwarĩ wa mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai angĩhikio nĩ mũndũ ũtarĩ mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai, ndakanarĩe kĩndũ o na kĩmwe kĩa maruta macio matheru.
And, when, a priest’s daughter, belongeth to a husband, who is a stranger, she, of the heave-offering of the hallowed things, may not eat.
13 No mwarĩ wa mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai angĩtuĩka mũtumia wa ndigwa, kana matigane na mũthuuriwe na ndarĩ ciana, nake acooke agaikare gwa ithe o ta rĩrĩa aarĩ mwĩthĩ, no arĩe irio icio nyamũre cia ithe. No mũndũ ũtetĩkĩrĩtio, ndakanarĩe kĩndũ o na kĩmwe gĩacio.
But, when a priest’s daughter, cometh to be a widow or divorced and hath no seed, and so she returneth unto the house of her father, as in her youth, of the food of her father, she may eat, —but no stranger, shall eat thereof.
14 “‘Mũndũ o wothe angĩrĩa maruta matheru atekũmenya, no nginya acookerie mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai kĩndũ kĩu kĩamũre arĩĩte na ongerere gĩcunjĩ gĩa gatano gĩa thogora wakĩo.
And, when, any man, eateth what is hallowed, by mistake, then shall he add the fifth part of it thereunto, and give unto the priest the hallowed thing:
15 Athĩnjĩri-Ngai matikanathaahie maruta marĩa matheru marĩa andũ a Isiraeli marutagĩra Jehova,
So shall they not profane the hallowed things of the sons of Israel, —which they heave up unto Yahweh;
16 na ũndũ wa kũmetĩkĩria marĩe maruta macio matheru, na ũguo ũtũme mũcookererwo nĩ mahĩtia marĩa mũngĩrĩhio. Niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova ũrĩa ũmatheragia.’”
nor cause them to bear guilty iniquity, when they eat their hallowed things, —For, I—Yahweh, am hallowing them.
17 Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ,
And Yahweh spake unto Moses, saying:
18 “Arĩria Harũni na ariũ ake, na warĩrie andũ a Isiraeli othe, ũmeere atĩrĩ: ‘Mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ thĩinĩ wanyu, arĩ Mũisiraeli kana arĩ mũgeni ũtũũraga Isiraeli, angĩkaarutĩra Jehova kĩheo kĩa iruta rĩa njino nĩ ũndũ wa kũhingia mwĩhĩtwa, kana kĩrĩ kĩa iruta rĩa kwĩyendera,
Speak unto Aaron, and unto his sons, and unto all the sons of Israel, and thou shalt say unto them—What man, soever, of the house of Israel, or of the sojourners in Israel, may bring near his oblation, as regardeth any of their vows, or any of their freewill offerings which they may bring near unto Yahweh, as an ascending-sacrifice,
19 no nginya akaaruta njamba ĩtarĩ na kaũũgũ kuuma kũrĩ ngʼombe, kana ngʼondu, kana mbũri, nĩgeetha kĩheo kĩu gĩĩtĩkĩrĩke handũ-inĩ hanyu.
that ye may be accepted, [it must be] a male without defect, of the beeves, or of the sheep, or of the goats:
20 Mũtikanarehe kĩndũ o na kĩrĩkũ kĩrĩ na kaũũgũ, tondũ gĩtigeetĩkĩrĩka handũ-inĩ hanyu.
whatsoever hath in it a blemish, shall ye not bring near, —for it shall not be accepted for you.
21 Rĩrĩa mũndũ arĩĩrutaga kĩndũ kiumĩte rũrũ-inĩ rwake rwa ngʼombe kana rwa mbũri, kĩrĩ kĩa iruta rĩa ũiguano rĩa kũrutĩrwo Jehova, nĩguo ahingie mwĩhĩtwa wa mwanya, kana kĩa iruta rĩa kwĩyendera, no nginya gĩkoragwo gĩtarĩ na kaũũgũ kana kameni nĩguo gĩĩtĩkĩrĩke.
And, whosoever would bring near a peace-offering unto Yahweh, to consecrate a vow or as a freewill-offering with a bullock or a sheep, without defect, shall it be, to be accepted, no, blemish, shall be therein.
22 Mũtikanarutĩre Jehova nyamũ ndumumu kana ndihie, kana ĩrathua, kana kĩndũ o gĩothe kĩrĩ na mbatata, kana kĩrĩ na ironda iratogota kana iroira. Mũtikanaigĩrĩre o na ĩmwe ya icio kĩgongona-inĩ ĩtuĩke ya iruta rĩa gũcinwo na mwaki harĩ Jehova.
Blind, or broken, or rent, or having a running sore, or scurvy, or scab, ye shall not bring these near unto Yahweh, —and no, altar-flame, shall ye present therefrom upon the altar, unto Yahweh.
23 No rĩrĩ, no mũrute ndegwa, kana ngʼondu nyonju kana homu, ĩrĩ ya igongona rĩa kwĩyendera, no ĩyo ndĩngĩtĩkĩrwo ĩtuĩke ya kũhingia mwĩhĩtwa.
Whether an ox or a lamb long or short limb, as a free-will offering, thou mayest offer it, but, for a vow, it shall not be accepted.
24 Mũtikanarutĩre Jehova nyamũ ĩrĩa ĩtihĩtio nyee, kana ĩkamendereka, kana ndarũre, kana hakũre. Mũtikanarute magongona ta macio bũrũri-inĩ wanyu,
But that which is bruised in the stones or broken therein, or torn or cut, shall ye neither bring ear unto Yahweh, nor on your own land, shall ye offer.
25 na mũtikanamũkĩre nyamũ ta icio kuuma kũrĩ mũndũ mũgeni atĩ nĩguo mũcirute ituĩke irio cia Ngai wanyu. Nyamũ ta icio itingĩtĩkĩrĩka handũ-inĩ hanyu, nĩ ũndũ nĩ nyonju, na irĩ na ũũgũ.’”
Even at the hand of the son of a stranger, shall ye not bring near the food of your God of any of these, —for, their damage is in them, a blemish, is in them, they shall not be accepted for you.
26 Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ,
And Yahweh spake unto Moses, saying: —
27 “Rĩrĩa gacaũ, kana gatũrũme, kana koori gaaciarwo, karĩikaraga na nyina mĩthenya mũgwanja. Kuuma mũthenya wa kanana na thuutha ũcio, nĩgagetĩkĩrĩka gatuĩke iruta rĩa gũcinwo na mwaki harĩ Jehova.
When, a beeve or a sheep or a goat, is brought forth, then shall it be seven days under its dam, —and, from the eighth day and onwards, it shall be accepted as an oblation of an altar-flame unto Yahweh,
28 Mũtikanathĩnje ngʼombe kana ngʼondu hamwe na mwana wayo mũthenya ũmwe.
Whether cow or ewe—it and its young, shall ye not slaughter on one day.
29 “Rĩrĩa mũkũruta igongona rĩa gũcookeria Jehova ngaatho, rĩrutagei na njĩra ya gũtũma rĩtĩkĩrĩke nĩ ũndũ wanyu.
And when ye would offer a sacrifice of thanksgiving unto Yahweh, for your acceptance, shall ye offer it.
30 No nginya rĩrĩĩo mũthenya o ro ũcio rĩarutwo; mũtikanatigie kĩndũ kĩarĩo gĩkinyie rũciinĩ. Niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova.
On the same day, shall it be eaten, ye shall not leave thereof until morning, —I, am Yahweh.
31 “Rũmagiai maathani makwa na mũmarũmagĩrĩre. Niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova.
So then ye shall observe my commandments, and do them, —I, am Yahweh.
32 Mũtikanathaahie rĩĩtwa rĩakwa itheru. No nginya andũ a Isiraeli mamenyage atĩ ndĩ mũtheru. Niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova ũrĩa ũmũtheragia,
So shall ye not profane my holy name, So shall I be hallowed in the midst of the sons of Israel, —I, am Yahweh, who am hallowing you;
33 na ũrĩa wamũrutire bũrũri wa Misiri nduĩke Ngai wanyu. Niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova.”
Who brought you forth out of the land of Egypt, that I might become your God, —I, am Yahweh.
