< Alawii 24 >

1 Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ,
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
2 “Atha andũ a Isiraeli makũrehere maguta marĩa makeere wega ma ndamaiyũ hihe ma gũkũheaga ũtheri, nĩgeetha matawa maikarage maakanĩte hĩndĩ ciothe.
Command the children of Israel, that they bring unto thee the finest and dearest oil of olives, to furnish the lamps continually,
3 Nja ya gĩtambaya gĩa gũcuurio kĩrĩa kĩrĩ mbere ya ithandũkũ rĩa Ũira o kũu Hema-inĩ-ya-Gũtũnganwo-rĩ, Harũni nĩamenyagĩrĩre matawa macio mbere ya Jehova kuuma hwaĩ-inĩ o nginya rũciinĩ, hĩndĩ ciothe. Ũndũ ũyũ ũgaatuĩka watho mwandĩke wa gũtũũra wa njiarwa iria igooka.
Without the veil of the testimony in the tabernacle of the covenant. And Aaron shall set them from evening until morning before the Lord, by a perpetual service and rite in your generations.
4 Matawa macio marĩ mbere ya Jehova, o macio maigĩrĩirwo mũtĩ-inĩ wa matawa wa thahabu ĩrĩa therie no nginya mamenyagĩrĩrwo hĩndĩ ciothe.
They shall be set upon the most pure candlestick before the Lord continually.
5 “Oya mũtu ũrĩa mũhinyu mũno, ũthondeke mĩgate ikũmi na ĩĩrĩ, o mũgate ũmwe ũrugwo na tũcunjĩ twĩrĩ twa ikũmi twa eba ĩmwe.
Thou shalt take also fine hour, and shalt bake twelve leaves thereof, two tenths shall be in every loaf:
6 Ũcooke ũmĩare mĩhari ĩĩrĩ, o mũhari mĩgate ĩtandatũ, ũmĩigĩrĩre igũrũ rĩa metha ya thahabu therie hau mbere ya Jehova.
And thou shalt set them six and six one against another upon the most clean table before the Lord:
7 Na o mũhari-inĩ nĩhaigwo ũbani ũrĩa mũtherie ũtuĩke gĩcunjĩ gĩa kĩririkano ũrũgamĩrĩire mĩgate ĩyo, na ũtuĩke iruta rĩa njino rĩrutĩirwo Jehova na mwaki.
And thou shalt put upon them the dearest frankincense, that the bread may be for a memorial of the oblation of the Lord.
8 Mĩgate ĩyo nĩ ĩigagwo mbere ya Jehova hĩndĩ ciothe, o Thabatũ o Thabatũ, ĩrũgamagĩrĩre andũ a Isiraeli, ĩtuĩke kĩrĩkanĩro gĩa gũtũũra.
Every sabbath they shall be changed before the Lord, being received of the children of Israel by an everlasting covenant:
9 Mĩgate ĩyo nĩ ya Harũni na ariũ ake, nao mamĩrĩagĩre handũ hatheru, nĩ tondũ mĩgate ĩyo nĩ gĩcunjĩ gĩtheru mũno harĩ rwĩga rwao rwa maruta marĩa marutĩirwo Jehova ma gũcinwo na mwaki.”
And they shall be Aaron’s and his sons’, that they may eat them in the holy place: because it is most holy of the sacrifices of the Lord by a perpetual right.
10 Na rĩrĩ, mũrũ wa mũtumia Mũisiraeli, no ithe aarĩ Mũmisiri, nĩathiire gũceerera andũ a Isiraeli, nake mũndũ ũcio na Mũisiraeli makĩrũa marĩ kũu kambĩ.
And behold there went out the son of a woman of Israel, whom she had of an Egyptian, among the children of Israel, and fell at words in the camp with a man of Israel.
11 Ũcio mũrũ wa mũtumia Mũisiraeli nĩarumire Rĩĩtwa rĩa Ngai na kĩrumi; nĩ ũndũ ũcio makĩmũtwarĩra Musa. (Nyina wa mũndũ ũcio eetagwo Shelomithu, mwarĩ wa Dibiri ũrĩa Mũdani.)
And when he had blasphemed the name, and had cursed it, he was brought to Moses: (now his mother was called Salumith, the daughter of Dabri, of the tribe of Dan: )
12 Makĩmũikia thĩinĩ, makĩmũrangĩra nginya rĩrĩa mangĩamenyire wega wendi wa Jehova.
And they put him into prison, till they might know what the Lord would command.
13 Nake Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ:
And the Lord spoke to Moses,
14 “Twara mũrumani ũcio nja ya kambĩ. Andũ arĩa othe maamũiguire akĩrumana mamũigĩrĩre moko mũtwe, nakĩo kĩũngano gĩothe kĩmũhũũre na mahiga nyuguto.
Saying: Bring forth the blasphemer without the camp, and let them that heard him, put their hands upon his head, and let all the people stone him.
15 Ĩra andũ a Isiraeli atĩrĩ, ‘Mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ angĩkaaruma Ngai wake, no nginya agaacookererwo nĩ ũũru ũcio ekĩte:
And thou shalt speak to the children of Israel: the man that curseth his God, shall bear his sin:
16 Mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ ũkaaruma rĩĩtwa rĩa Jehova no nginya akooragwo. Kĩũngano gĩothe gĩa Isiraeli no nginya gĩkaamũhũũra na mahiga nyuguto. Aakorwo arĩ mũgeni kana arĩ mũndũ ũciarĩirwo bũrũri-inĩ wanyu, rĩrĩa akaaruma Rĩĩtwa rĩu rĩa Jehova, no nginya akooragwo.
And he that blasphemeth the name of the Lord, dying let him die: all the multitude shall stone him, whether he be a native or a stranger. He that blasphemeth the name of the Lord, dying let him die.
17 “‘Mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ angĩkooraga mũndũ ũngĩ, no nginya nake akooragwo.
He that striketh and killeth a man, dying let him die.
18 Mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ angĩũraga nyamũ ya mũndũ ũrĩa ũngĩ, no nginya akaamĩrĩha, nyamũ ĩrĩhwo na nyamũ ĩngĩ.
He that killeth a beast, shall make it good, that is to say, shall give beast for beast.
19 Mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ angĩgatiihia ũrĩa ũngĩ, o ũrĩa ekanĩte no nginya nake ekwo o ũguo:
He that giveth a blemish to any of his neighbours: as he hath done, so shall it be done to him:
20 Mũndũ oina mũndũ ũrĩa ũngĩ ihĩndĩ, nake akoinwo ihĩndĩ, riitho rĩrĩhagio na riitho, igego rĩrĩhagio na igego. O ũrĩa mũndũ atiihĩtie mũndũ ũngĩ, o nake atiihio o ro ũguo.
Breach for breach, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, shall he restore. What blemish he gave, the like shall he be compelled to suffer.
21 Mũndũ ũrĩa ũkooraga nyamũ nĩakamĩrĩha, no ũrĩa ũkooraga mũndũ ũrĩa ũngĩ no nginya akooragwo.
He that striketh a beast, shall render another. He that striketh a man shall be punished.
22 Mũrĩkoragwo na watho o ro ũmwe ũkoniĩ mũgeni na mũndũ ũrĩa ũciarĩirwo bũrũri wanyu. Niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova Ngai wanyu.’”
Let there be equal judgment among you, whether he be a stranger, or a native that offends: because I am the Lord your God.
23 Nake Musa akĩarĩria andũ a Isiraeli, nao magĩtwara mũndũ ũcio warumĩte Ngai nja ya kambĩ, makĩmũhũũra na mahiga nyuguto. Nao andũ a Isiraeli magĩĩka o ta ũrĩa Jehova aathĩte Musa.
And Moses spoke to the children of Israel: and they brought forth him that had blasphemed, without the camp, and they stoned him. And the children of Israel did as the Lord had commanded Moses.
