< Alawii 27 >
1 Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ,
Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
2 “Arĩria andũ a Isiraeli, ũmeere atĩrĩ: ‘Mũndũ o wothe angĩkeehĩta mwĩhĩtwa wa mwanya wa kwamũrĩra Jehova andũ, na ũndũ wa kũruta indo iria ciiganĩire iruta rĩu,
“Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them, ‘When a man consecrates a person to Yahweh in a vow, according to your valuation,
3 nĩũgaatua irĩhi rĩa mũndũ mũrũme wa kuuma mĩaka mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ nginya mĩaka mĩrongo ĩtandatũ rĩkorwo rĩrĩ cekeri mĩrongo ĩtano cia betha, kũringana na cekeri ya handũ-harĩa-haamũre,
your valuation of a male from twenty years old to sixty years old shall be fifty shekels of silver, according to the shekel of the sanctuary.
4 na aakorwo nĩ mũndũ-wa-nja, ũgaatua irĩhi rĩkorwo rĩrĩ cekeri mĩrongo ĩtatũ.
If she is a female, then your valuation shall be thirty shekels.
5 Aakorwo nĩ mũndũ wa kuuma mĩaka ĩtano nginya mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ, ũgaatua irĩhi rĩa mũndũ mũrũme rĩtuĩke nĩ cekeri mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ, na irĩhi rĩa mũndũ-wa-nja nĩ cekeri ikũmi.
If the person is from five years old to twenty years old, then your valuation shall be for a male twenty shekels, and for a female ten shekels.
6 Aakorwo nĩ mũndũ wa kuuma mweri ũmwe nginya mĩaka ĩtano, ũgaatua irĩhi rĩa kahĩĩ rĩtuĩke nĩ cekeri ithano cia betha, na irĩhi rĩa kairĩtu nĩ cekeri ithatũ cia betha.
If the person is from a month old to five years old, then your valuation shall be for a male five shekels of silver, and for a female your valuation shall be three shekels of silver.
7 Aakorwo nĩ mũndũ wa mĩaka mĩrongo ĩtandatũ kana makĩrĩa, ũgaatua irĩhi rĩa mũndũ mũrũme rĩtuĩke nĩ cekeri ikũmi na ithano, na rĩa mũndũ-wa-nja nĩ cekeri ikũmi.
If the person is from sixty years old and upward; if he is a male, then your valuation shall be fifteen shekels, and for a female ten shekels.
8 Angĩkorwo mũndũ ũrĩa wĩhĩtĩte mwĩhĩtwa nĩ mũthĩĩni mũno ndaangĩhota kũrĩha irĩhi rĩrĩa rĩtuĩtwo, nĩagatwara mũndũ ũcio kũrĩ mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai, ũrĩa ũgaatua irĩhi rĩrĩa mũndũ ũcio wĩhĩtĩte mwĩhĩtwa angĩhota kũrĩha.
But if he is poorer than your valuation, then he shall be set before the priest, and the priest shall assign a value to him. The priest shall assign a value according to his ability to pay.
9 “‘Angĩkorwo kĩndũ kĩrĩa eeranĩire na mwĩhĩtwa nĩ nyamũ ĩngĩĩtĩkĩrĩka ĩrĩ iruta kũrĩ Jehova, nyamũ ta ĩyo ĩheanĩtwo kũrĩ Jehova ĩrĩtuĩkaga nĩ nyamũre.
“‘If it is an animal of which men offer an offering to Yahweh, all that any man gives of such to Yahweh becomes holy.
10 Ndakanamĩkũũranie kana amĩgarũranie, aige ĩrĩa njega ithenya rĩa ĩrĩa njũru, kana aige ĩrĩa njũru ithenya rĩa ĩrĩa njega; angĩgakũũrania nyamũ ĩyo na ĩngĩ, cierĩ ĩyo ya mbere na ĩyo ya gũkũũranio nĩigatuĩka nyamũre.
He shall not alter it, nor exchange it, a good for a bad, or a bad for a good. If he shall at all exchange animal for animal, then both it and that for which it is exchanged shall be holy.
11 Angĩkorwo kĩndũ kĩu ehĩtĩte kũruta nĩ nyamũ ĩrĩ na thaahu, ĩrĩa ĩtangĩĩtĩkĩrĩka ĩrĩ iruta kũrĩ Jehova, nyamũ ĩyo no nginya ĩtwarĩrwo mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai,
If it is any unclean animal, of which they do not offer as an offering to Yahweh, then he shall set the animal before the priest;
12 ũrĩa ũgaatua kana nĩ njega kana ti njega. Thogora ũrĩa mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai agaatua, ũcio nĩguo ũgaatuĩka thogora wayo.
and the priest shall evaluate it, whether it is good or bad. As the priest evaluates it, so it shall be.
13 Angĩkorwo mwene no ende gũkũũra nyamũ ĩyo, no nginya ongerere gĩcunjĩ kĩngĩ gĩa ithano harĩ thogora ũrĩa ũtuĩtwo.
But if he will indeed redeem it, then he shall add the fifth part of it to its valuation.
14 “‘Mũndũ angĩamũra nyũmba yake ĩrĩ kĩndũ kĩamũrĩirwo Jehova, mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩagatua itua kana nĩ njega kana ti njega. Thogora ũrĩa mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai agaatua, ũcio nĩguo ũgaatuĩka thogora wayo.
“‘When a man dedicates his house to be holy to Yahweh, then the priest shall evaluate it, whether it is good or bad. As the priest evaluates it, so it shall stand.
15 Mũndũ ũrĩa wamũrĩte nyũmba yake angĩmĩkũũra-rĩ, no nginya ongerere gĩcunjĩ kĩngĩ gĩa ithano gĩa thogora wayo, nayo nyũmba ĩyo nĩĩgatuĩka yake rĩngĩ.
If he who dedicates it will redeem his house, then he shall add the fifth part of the money of your valuation to it, and it shall be his.
16 “‘Angĩkorwo mũndũ nĩakamũrĩra Jehova gĩcunjĩ kĩa mũgũnda wa nyũmba yao, thogora waguo ũgaatuuo kũringana na mbeũ iria ingĩhaandwo, nacio nĩ cekeri mĩrongo ĩtano cia betha, iria arĩ kĩbaba kĩmwe kĩa omeri ya mbeũ cia cairi.
“‘If a man dedicates to Yahweh part of the field of his possession, then your valuation shall be according to the seed for it. The sowing of a homer of barley shall be valued at fifty shekels of silver.
17 Angĩkaamũra mũgũnda wake Mwaka-inĩ wa Jubilii, thogora ũrĩa ũtuĩtwo nĩguo ũgaatuĩka thogora waguo.
If he dedicates his field from the Year of Jubilee, according to your valuation it shall stand.
18 No angĩamũra mũgũnda wake thuutha wa Jubilii, mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩagatua thogora kũringana na mĩaka ĩrĩa ĩtigarĩte Jubilii ĩrĩa ĩngĩ ĩgĩgaakinya, naguo thogora waguo nĩũkanyihanyiihio.
But if he dedicates his field after the Jubilee, then the priest shall reckon to him the money according to the years that remain to the Year of Jubilee; and an abatement shall be made from your valuation.
19 Mũndũ ũcio wamũrĩte mũgũnda wake angĩenda kũũkũũra, nĩakongerera gĩcunjĩ kĩngĩ gĩa ithano harĩ thogora waguo, mũgũnda ũcio ũcooke ũtuĩke wake rĩngĩ.
If he who dedicated the field will indeed redeem it, then he shall add the fifth part of the money of your valuation to it, and it shall remain his.
20 No rĩrĩ, angĩkorwo ndegũkũũra mũgũnda ũcio, kana aakorwo nĩawendeirie mũndũ ũngĩ, mũgũnda ũcio ndũrĩ hĩndĩ ũgaakũũrwo o na rĩ.
If he will not redeem the field, or if he has sold the field to another man, it shall not be redeemed any more;
21 Rĩrĩa mũgũnda ũcio ũkaarekererio Mwaka-inĩ wa Jubilii, nĩũgatuĩka mwamũre, o ta mũgũnda wamũrĩirwo Jehova; ũgaatuĩka mũgũnda wa athĩnjĩri-Ngai.
but the field, when it goes out in the Jubilee, shall be holy to Yahweh, as a devoted field. It shall be owned by the priests.
22 “‘Ningĩ mũndũ angĩkaamũrĩra Jehova mũgũnda ũrĩa agũrĩte, na ti mũgũnda wa nyũmba yao,
“‘If he dedicates a field to Yahweh which he has bought, which is not of the field of his possession,
23 mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩagatua thogora waguo nginya Mwaka wa Jubilii, nake mũndũ ũcio nĩakarĩha irĩhi rĩu mũthenya ũcio taarĩ kĩndũ kĩamũrĩirwo Jehova.
then the priest shall reckon to him the worth of your valuation up to the Year of Jubilee; and he shall give your valuation on that day, as a holy thing to Yahweh.
24 Mwaka-inĩ wa Jubilii, mũgũnda ũcio nĩũgacookerera mwene ũrĩa wamwendeirie, ũrĩa warĩ mwene mũgũnda ũcio.
In the Year of Jubilee the field shall return to him from whom it was bought, even to him to whom the possession of the land belongs.
25 Thogora wothe ũrĩtuagwo kũringana na cekeri ya handũ-harĩa-haamũre, nacio nĩ geera mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ harĩ cekeri ĩmwe.
All your valuations shall be according to the shekel of the sanctuary: twenty gerahs to the shekel.
26 “‘Na rĩrĩ, gũtirĩ mũndũ ũngĩamũrĩra Jehova irigithathi rĩa nyamũ, nĩ ũndũ marigithathi mothe nĩ ma Jehova; arĩ ndegwa, kana ngʼondu, icio nĩ cia Jehova.
“‘However the firstborn among animals, which belongs to Yahweh as a firstborn, no man may dedicate, whether an ox or a sheep. It is Yahweh’s.
27 Angĩkorwo nĩ nyamũ ĩmwe ya iria irĩ thaahu, no amĩgũre na thogora ũrĩa ĩtuĩrĩirwo, ongerere gĩcunjĩ kĩngĩ gĩa ithano harĩ thogora ũcio. Aakorwo ndekũmĩkũũra, nyamũ ĩyo nĩĩkeendio na thogora ũrĩa ũtuĩtwo.
If it is an unclean animal, then he shall buy it back according to your valuation, and shall add to it the fifth part of it; or if it isn’t redeemed, then it shall be sold according to your valuation.
28 “‘No gũtirĩ kĩndũ kĩa mũndũ kĩrĩa aamũrĩire Jehova, arĩ mũndũ, kana nyamũ, kana mũgũnda wa nyũmba yao, kĩngĩendio kana gĩkũũrwo; indo ciothe ciamũrĩirwo Jehova nĩ nyamũre harĩ Jehova.
“‘Notwithstanding, no devoted thing that a man devotes to Yahweh of all that he has, whether of man or animal, or of the field of his possession, shall be sold or redeemed. Everything that is permanently devoted is most holy to Yahweh.
29 “‘Na rĩrĩ, gũtirĩ mũndũ wamũrĩirwo kũũragwo ũngĩkũũrwo; no nginya ooragwo.
“‘No one devoted to destruction, who shall be devoted from among men, shall be ransomed. He shall surely be put to death.
30 “‘Gĩcunjĩ gĩa ikũmi kĩa indo ciothe cia kuuma mũgũnda, arĩ ngano ya mũgũnda kana maciaro ma mĩtĩ, nĩ kĩa Jehova; gĩcunjĩ kĩu kĩamũrĩirwo Jehova.
“‘All the tithe of the land, whether of the seed of the land or of the fruit of the trees, is Yahweh’s. It is holy to Yahweh.
31 Mũndũ angĩgakũũra gĩcunjĩ gĩake gĩa ikũmi, no nginya akongerera gĩcunjĩ kĩngĩ gĩa ithano harĩ thogora ũrĩa ũtuĩtwo.
If a man redeems anything of his tithe, he shall add a fifth part to it.
32 Gĩcunjĩ gĩa ikũmi gĩothe kĩa rũũru rwa ngʼombe kana rwa mbũri, nyamũ ya ikũmi yothe ĩrĩa ĩhĩtũkagĩra rungu rwa rũthanju rwa mũrĩithi nĩĩkamũrĩrwo Jehova.
All the tithe of the herds or the flocks, whatever passes under the rod, the tenth shall be holy to Yahweh.
33 Mũndũ ndagathuure ĩrĩa njega kana ĩrĩa njũru, kana akũũranie. Angĩgakũũrania nyamũ ĩyo na ĩngĩ, cierĩ, ya mbere na ĩyo ya gũkũũranio, nĩ igaatuĩka nyamũre, na icio itingĩkũũrwo.’”
He shall not examine whether it is good or bad, neither shall he exchange it. If he exchanges it at all, then both it and that for which it is exchanged shall be holy. It shall not be redeemed.’”
34 Macio nĩmo maathani marĩa Jehova aaheire Musa Kĩrĩma-inĩ gĩa Sinai makoniĩ andũ a Isiraeli.
These are the commandments which Yahweh commanded Moses for the children of Israel on Mount Sinai.
