1 Nake Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ,
Then Yahweh told Moses/me,
2 “Arĩria andũ a Isiraeli, ũmeere atĩrĩ: ‘Thuutha wa gũtoonya bũrũri ũrĩa ngũmũhe ũtuĩke mũciĩ wanyu,
“Tell this to the Israeli people: When you arrive in the land that I am giving to you,
3 na mũrutĩre Jehova maruta ma njino kuuma rũũru rwa ngʼombe kana rwa mbũri, matuĩke mũtararĩko wa gũkenia Jehova, marĩ maruta ma njino, kana magongona, nĩ ũndũ wa mĩĩhĩtwa ya mwanya, kana maruta ma kwĩyendera kana maruta ma ciathĩ-rĩ,
you must offer to me special sacrifices which will be pleasing to me [when the priest burns them on the altar]. Some of them may be offerings that will be completely burned [on the altar]. Some of them may be to indicate that you have made a solemn promise to me. Some of them may be offerings that you yourselves have decided to make. Some of them may be offerings at one of the festivals that you celebrate each year. These offerings may be taken from your herds [of cattle] or from your flocks [of sheep and goats].
4 ũrĩa ũrĩĩrehaga iruta rĩake, arĩĩrutagĩra Jehova iruta rĩa mũtu gĩcunjĩ gĩa ikũmi kĩa eba ĩmwe ya mũtu mũhinyu mũno, ũtukanĩtio na gĩcunjĩ kĩa inya kĩa hini ĩmwe ya maguta.
When you give these offerings, you must also bring to me a grain offering of two quarts/liters of nice flour mixed with one quart/liter of [olive] oil.
5 Harĩ o gatũrũme ka iruta rĩa njino kana igongona, haaragĩria gĩcunjĩ kĩa inya kĩa hini ĩmwe ya ndibei ĩrĩ iruta rĩa kũnyuuo.
When you offer a lamb to be a sacrifice to be completely burned, you must also pour on the altar one quart/liter of wine.
6 “‘Igongona rĩa ndũrũme-rĩ, haarĩria igongona rĩa mũtu icunjĩ igĩrĩ cia ikũmi cia eba ĩmwe ya mũtu mũhinyu mũno, ũtukanĩtio na gĩcunjĩ gĩa ithatũ kĩa hini ĩmwe ya maguta,
‘When you offer a ram to be a sacrifice, you must also bring an offering of four quarts/liters of finely-ground flour mixed with (a third of a gallon/1.3 liters) of [olive] oil.
7 na gĩcunjĩ gĩa ithatũ kĩa hini ĩmwe ya ndibei ĩrĩ iruta rĩa kũnyuuo. Rĩrutei rĩrĩ mũtararĩko wa gũkenia Jehova.
And also pour on the altar (a third of a gallon/1.3 liters) of wine. While they are being burned, the smell will be very pleasing to me.
8 “‘Rĩrĩa mũkũhaarĩria gategwa nĩ ũndũ wa iruta rĩa njino kana igongona, nĩ ũndũ wa mwĩhĩtwa wa mwanya kana iruta rĩa ũiguano rĩrutĩirwo Jehova-rĩ,
‘Sometimes you will offer a young bull to be completely burned on the altar. Sometimes you will offer a sacrifice to indicate that you have made a solemn promise to me. Sometimes you will offer a sacrifice to maintain fellowship with me.
9 rehagai hamwe na ndegwa ĩyo iruta rĩa mũtu icunjĩ ithatũ cia ikũmi cia eba ĩmwe ya mũtu mũhinyu mũno, ũtukanĩtio na nuthu ya hini ĩmwe ya maguta.
When you offer these sacrifices, you must also offer a grain offering of six quarts/liters of finely-ground flour mixed with two quarts/liters of [olive] oil.
10 O na ningĩ rehagai nuthu ya hini ĩmwe ya ndibei ĩrĩ iruta rĩa kũnyuuo. Narĩo igongona rĩu rĩgatuĩka iruta rĩa njino rĩrĩ mũtararĩko wa gũkenia Jehova.
Also pour on the altar two quarts/liters of wine to be an offering. While those special gifts are being burned, the smell will be very pleasing to me.
11 Ndegwa kana ndũrũme o yothe, kana gatũrũme kana koori o gothe, irĩhaaragĩrio o ro ũguo.
Each time someone offers a bull or a ram or a male lamb or a young goat to be a sacrifice, it must be done that way.
12 Ĩkagai ũguo harĩ o ĩmwe yacio ya iria ciothe mũrĩharagĩria.
You must obey these instructions for each animal that you bring to me for an offering.
13 “‘Mũndũ wothe ũciarĩirwo kwanyu no nginya ekage maũndũ macio ũguo rĩrĩa arĩrehaga iruta rĩa gũcinwo na mwaki rĩrĩ mũtararĩko wa gũkenia Jehova.
‘All of you people who have been Israelis all of your lives must obey these regulations when you offer sacrifices that will be pleasing to me when they are burned on the altar.
14 Nĩ ũndũ wa njiarwa iria igooka, rĩrĩa rĩothe mũgeni kana mũndũ ũngĩ o wothe ũtũũranĩtie na inyuĩ arĩĩrutaga iruta rĩa gũcinwo na mwaki rĩrĩ mũtararĩko wa gũkenia Jehova-rĩ, no nginya ekage o ta ũrĩa inyuĩ mwĩkaga.
If any foreigners visit you or live among you, if they also want to bring a sacrifice that will be pleasing to me when it is burned on the altar, they must obey these same instructions.
15 Kĩrĩndĩ gĩkĩ kĩrĩkoragwo na watho o ũmwe wanyu na harĩ mũgeni ũrĩa ũtũũranĩtie na inyuĩ; ũyũ nĩ watho wa gũtũũra nĩ ũndũ wa njiarwa iria igooka. Inyuĩ na mũgeni mũrĩkoragwo mũrĩ o ũndũ ũmwe maitho-inĩ ma Jehova.
I consider that those who have always been Israelis and those who are foreigners are equal, and so they must all obey the same instructions. All of your descendants must also continue to obey these instructions.
16 Mawatho mamwe na mwathanĩre ũmwe nĩguo ũrĩhũthagĩrwo harĩ inyuĩ na harĩ mũgeni ũrĩa ũtũũranĩtie na inyuĩ.’”
You Israelis and the foreigners who live among you must all obey the same instructions.”
17 Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ,
Yahweh also said to Moses/me,
18 “Arĩria andũ a Isiraeli, ũmeere atĩrĩ: ‘Rĩrĩa mũgatoonya bũrũri ũrĩa ndĩramũtwara,
“Tell these instructions to the Israeli people: [Yahweh says this]: ‘When you arrive in the land to which I am taking you,
19 na mũrĩe irio cia bũrũri ũcio, heanai imwe ciacio irĩ iruta harĩ Jehova.
and you eat the crops that are growing there, you must set some of them aside to be a sacred offering to me.
20 Nĩ mũkaaruta tũmĩgate kuuma mũtu-inĩ wanyu ũrĩa mũgaathĩa rĩa mbere na mũtũheane tũrĩ iruta kĩhuhĩro-inĩ kĩa ngano.
[Each year] set aside some of the first grain that you gather after you have threshed it. Bake a loaf of bread from the first flour that you grind and bring it to me to be a sacred offering.
21 Nĩmũkaheanaga iruta rĩrĩ rĩa mũtu ũrĩa mũgathĩa rĩa mbere kũrĩ Jehova njiarwa-inĩ cianyu ciothe iria igooka thuutha.
Every year, you and your descendants must continue to make and bring to me [a loaf of bread baked] [MTY] [with flour] from the first part of the grain that you harvest.’”
22 “‘Na rĩrĩ, mũngĩkaaga kũrũmĩrĩra rĩathani o na rĩmwe rĩa maya Jehova aaheire Musa mũtekwenda-rĩ,
“‘There may be times when you Israelis do not obey all these instructions that I have given to Moses to tell you, but not because you intended to disobey them.
23 rĩathani o rĩothe Jehova aamũheire na kanua ka Musa kuuma mũthenya ũrĩa Jehova aamaheanire na kũrũmĩrĩra nginya njiarwa iria igooka,
There may be times when some of your descendants do not obey all these instructions that I have given to Moses to tell to you.
24 na ũndũ ũcio ũngĩkorwo wĩkĩtwo mũtekwenda, kĩrĩndĩ gĩtekũmenya ũhoro ũcio, hĩndĩ ĩyo kĩrĩndĩ gĩothe nĩgĩkaruta gategwa gatuĩke igongona rĩa njino rĩna mũtararĩko wa gũkenia Jehova, hamwe na maruta ma mũtu na ma kũnyuuo, marĩa matuĩtwo, na thenge ya igongona rĩa kũhoroheria mehia.
If you or they sin [by forgetting to obey these instructions] and none of the Israeli people realize that they were doing that, one young bull as an offering for all the people [must be brought to the priest]. That will be pleasing to me [when it is burned on the altar]. They must also bring to me a grain offering and an offering of wine, and a male goat, to be sacrificed to enable me to forgive them for the sins they have committed.
25 Mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩakahoroheria kĩrĩndĩ kĩu gĩothe kĩa andũ a Isiraeli, na nĩmakarekerwo, nĩgũkorwo ũndũ ũcio ndwarĩ wa rũtũrĩko, na nĩ ũndũ wa kũrutĩra Jehova iruta rĩa gũcinwo na mwaki rĩa mahĩtia mao, na iruta rĩa kũhoroherio mehia.
[By offering these sacrifices], the priest will make atonement for all of you Israeli people. Then, as a result of their bringing to me an offering to be burned [on the altar], (you will be forgiven/I will forgive you), because you sinned without realizing that you were sinning.
26 Kĩrĩndĩ gĩothe kĩa andũ a Isiraeli na ageni arĩa matũũranagia nao nĩmakarekerwo, nĩ ũndũ andũ othe mehĩtie matekwenda.
You Israeli people and the foreigners who are living among you will all be forgiven.
27 “‘No kũngĩkorwo no mũndũ ũmwe wĩhĩtie atekwenda, no nginya arehe kaharika ka mwaka ũmwe ka igongona rĩa kũhoroherio mehia.
If one person commits a sin without realizing that he was sinning, that person must bring to me a female goat to be an offering to enable me to forgive that person for the sins that person has committed.
28 Mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩakahoroheria mũndũ ũcio wĩhĩtie atekwenda hau mbere ya Jehova na aarĩkia kũhoroherio, nĩakarekerwo.
The priest will offer it to be a sacrifice to remove the guilt of that person, and that person will be forgiven.
29 Watho o ro ũmwe nĩguo ũrĩhũthagĩrwo harĩ mũndũ o wothe ũkehia atekwenda, arĩ Mũisiraeli ũciarĩirwo kwanyu kana arĩ mũgeni.
You Israelis and all the foreigners who live among you must obey these same instructions.
30 “‘No mũndũ ũrĩa ũkehia na rũtũrĩko akĩendaga, arĩ wa gũciarĩrwo kwanyu kana arĩ mũgeni, ũcio nĩarumĩte Jehova, na mũndũ ũcio no nginya aingatwo kuuma kũrĩ andũ ao.
But those who disobey my commands (deliberately/because they want to), both Israelis and the foreigners who live among you, have sinned against me [by doing that]. So (they must be expelled/you must expel them) from your camp.
31 Nĩ ũndũ nĩ amenete kiugo kĩa Jehova na akoina maathani make, mũndũ ũcio ti-itherũ no nginya aingatwo biũ naguo wĩhia wake nĩũkamũcokerera.’”
They have despised my commands and deliberately disobeyed them, so they must be punished for their sin by not being allowed to live among you any more.’”
32 Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa andũ a Isiraeli maarĩ werũ-inĩ, kũrĩ mũndũ wonirwo akiuna ngũ mũthenya wa Thabatũ.
One day, while the Israelis were in the desert, some of them saw a man who was gathering firewood on the Sabbath/rest day.
33 Arĩa maamuonire akiuna ngũ makĩmũtwara kũrĩ Musa na Harũni, o na kũrĩ kĩũngano kĩu gĩothe gĩa Isiraeli,
Those who saw him doing that brought him to Aaron and Moses/me and the rest of the Israeli people.
34 na makĩmũhingĩra nĩ ũndũ gũtiamenyekaga ũrĩa agĩrĩirwo nĩ gwĩkwo.
They guarded him carefully, because they did not know what to do [to punish] him.
35 Nake Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ, “Mũndũ ũcio no nginya akue. Kĩũngano gĩothe kĩa Isiraeli no nginya kĩmũhũũre na mahiga nyuguto nja ya kambĩ.”
Then Yahweh said to Moses/me, “The man must be executed. All of you must [kill him by throwing] stones at him outside the camp.”
36 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio kĩũngano kĩu gĩkĩmũtwara nja ya kambĩ gĩkĩmũhũũra na mahiga nyuguto agĩkua, o ta ũrĩa Jehova aathĩte Musa.
So they all took the man outside the camp and killed him by throwing stones at him, as Yahweh had commanded Moses/me that they should do.
37 Nake Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ,
Yahweh also said to Moses/me,
38 “Arĩria andũ a Isiraeli, ũmeere atĩrĩ: ‘Njiarwa-inĩ ciothe iria igooka, nĩmũgatumagĩrĩra ciohe cia ndigi koine-inĩ ka nguo cianyu, o kĩohe gĩkohererwo na rũrigi rwa rangi wa bururu.
“Tell this to the Israeli people: You and all your descendants must [twist threads together to] make tassels, and then attach them with blue cords to the bottom edges of your clothes.
39 Ciohe icio nĩcio mũrĩroraga nĩguo mũririkanage maathani mothe ma Jehova, nĩguo mũmathĩkagĩre, mũtikanahũũre ũmaraya na ũndũ wa kũrũmĩrĩra merirĩria ma ngoro o na kana maitho manyu.
When you look at the tassels, you will remember all the instructions that I gave to you, and you will obey them, instead of doing what you desire and as a result causing yourselves to become unacceptable to me.
40 Ningĩ nĩmũkaririkanaga gwathĩkagĩra maathani makwa mothe na mũtuĩke andũ mamũrĩirwo Ngai wanyu.
Seeing those tassels will help you to remember that you must obey all my commands and that you must be (my holy people/dedicated to me).
41 Niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova Ngai wanyu, ũrĩa wamũrutire bũrũri wa Misiri nĩguo nduĩke Ngai wanyu. Niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova Ngai wanyu.’”
Do not forget that I am Yahweh, your God. I am the one who brought you out of Egypt in order that you might belong to me. I am Yahweh, your God.”
