Ndari 18

1 Nake Jehova akĩĩra Harũni atĩrĩ, “Wee, na ariũ aku, na andũ a nyũmba ya thoguo, nĩ inyuĩ mũrĩcookagĩrĩrwo nĩ mahĩtia marĩa mangĩĩkwo makoniĩ handũ-harĩa-haamũre, na wee na ariũ aku inyuĩ nĩ inyuĩ mũrĩcookagĩrĩrwo nĩ mahĩtia marĩa mangĩĩkwo makoniĩ wĩra wa ũthĩnjĩri-Ngai.

And the Lord sayd vnto Aaron, Thou, and thy sonnes and thy fathers house with thee, shall beare the iniquitie of the Sanctuarie: both thou and thy sonnes with thee shall beare the iniquitie of your Priestes office.

2 Rehe Alawii a mbarĩ yanyu, a mũhĩrĩga wa maithe manyu, nĩguo manyiitane na inyuĩ na mamũteithagĩrĩrie rĩrĩa wee na ariũ aku mũgũtungata mbere ya Hema-ya-Ũira.

And bring also with thee thy brethren of the tribe of Leui of ye familie of thy father, which shalbe ioyned with thee, and minister vnto thee: but thou, and thy sonnes with thee shall minister before the Tabernacle of the Testimonie:

3 Acio nĩwe marĩathĩkagĩra na marutage wĩra wothe wa Hema ĩyo, no matikanakuhĩrĩrie indo cia handũ hau haamũre kana kĩgongona, kana wee hamwe nao mũkue.

And they shall keepe thy charge, euen the charge of all the Tabernacle: but they shall not come neere the instruments of the Sanctuary, nor to the altar, lest they die, both they and you:

4 Marĩrutithanagia wĩra na inyuĩ na mamenyagĩrĩre Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo, marutage wĩra wothe wa Hema ĩyo na gũtikagĩe na mũndũ ũngĩ o wothe ũngĩkuhĩrĩria harĩa mũrĩ.

And they shalbe ioyned with thee, and keepe the charge of the Tabernacle of the Congregation for all the seruice of the Tabernacle: and no stranger shall come neere vnto you:

5 “Nĩ wĩra wanyu kũmenyerera handũ hau haamũre o na kĩgongona, nĩguo mangʼũrĩ ma Jehova matikanakinyĩre andũ a Isiraeli rĩngĩ.

Therefore shall ye keepe the charge of the Sanctuarie, and the charge of the altar: so there shall fall no more wrath vpon the children of Israel.

6 Niĩ mwene nĩthuurĩte Alawii athiritũ anyu kuuma thĩinĩ wa andũ a Isiraeli matuĩke kĩheo kĩanyu, maamũrĩirwo Jehova nĩguo marutage wĩra wa Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo.

For lo, I haue taken your brethren the Leuites from among the children of Israel, which as a gift of yours, are giuen vnto the Lord, to do the seruice of the Tabernacle of the Congregation.

7 No rĩrĩ, no wee na ariũ aku mũrĩĩtungataga ta athĩnjĩri-Ngai maũndũ-inĩ mothe ma kĩgongona, na mũtungatage o na mwena ũcio ũngĩ wa gĩtambaya kĩu gĩa kũhakania. Niĩ nĩndamũhe ũtungata wa ũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ta kĩheo. Mũndũ ũngĩ o wothe ũngĩkuhĩrĩria handũ hau haamũre no nginya ooragwo.”

But thou, and thy sonnes with thee shall keepe your Priestes office for all things of the altar, and within the vaile: therefore shall ye serue: for I haue made your Priestes office an office of seruice: therefore the stranger that cometh neere, shalbe slayne.

8 Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Harũni atĩrĩ, “Niĩ mwene nĩngũtuĩte mũmenyereri wa maruta marĩa ndehagĩrwo; maruta mothe maamũre marĩa andũ a Isiraeli marĩndutagĩra nĩ ndakũhe wee na ariũ aku matuĩke gĩcunjĩ gĩaku na rũgai rwaku rwa mahinda mothe.

Againe the Lord spake vnto Aaron, Behold, I haue giuen thee the keeping of mine offrings, of all the hallowed things of the children of Israel: vnto thee I haue giuen them for the anoyntings sake, and to thy sonnes, for a perpetuall ordinance.

9 Wee ũrĩheagwo gĩcunjĩ kĩa maruta marĩa maamũre mũno marĩa matarĩ ma gũcinwo na mwaki. Kuuma kũrĩ iheo ciothe iria andũ a Isiraeli marĩndutagĩra irĩ maruta maamũre mũno, marĩ ma mũtu, kana ma kũhoroherio mehia, kana maruta ma mahĩtia, gĩcunjĩ kĩu nĩ gĩaku na ciana ciaku.

This shalbe thine of the most holy things, reserued from the fire: all their offering of all their meate offring, and of all their sinne offring, and of all their trespasse offring, which they bring vnto me, that shalbe most holy vnto thee, and to thy sonnes.

10 Rĩĩaga gĩcunjĩ kĩu ta kĩndũ kĩamũre mũno; mũndũ mũrũme o wothe wa nyũmba yaku nĩagakĩrĩĩaga. Wee no nginya ũtuage atĩ gĩcunjĩ kĩu nĩ kĩamũre.

In the most holy place shalt thou eate it: euery male shall eate of it: it is holy vnto thee.

11 “O na ningĩ ici no ciaku: kĩrĩa gĩothe kĩamũrĩtwo kuuma iheo ciothe cia gũthũngũthio cia andũ a Isiraeli. Icio nĩndakũhe wee, na ariũ aku, na airĩtu aku, ituĩke rũgai rwaku rwa hĩndĩ ciothe. Mũndũ o wothe wa nyũmba yaku ũtarĩ na thaahu no acirĩe.

This also shalbe thine: the heaue offering of their gift, with all the shake offerings of the children of Israel: I haue giuen them vnto thee and to thy sonnes and to thy daughters with thee, to be a duetie for euer al the cleane in thine house shall eate of it.

12 “Nĩndakũhe maguta mothe marĩa mega mũno ma mũtamaiyũ na ndibei yothe ĩrĩa njega mũno ya mũhihano, na ngano ĩrĩa maheaga Jehova ĩrĩ maciaro ma mbere ma magetha mao.

All the fat of the oyle, and all the fat of the wine, and of the wheate, which they shall offer vnto the Lord for their first fruites, I haue giuen them vnto thee.

13 Maciaro mothe ma bũrũri ma mbere marĩa marĩrehagĩra Jehova marĩtuĩkaga maku. Mũndũ o wothe wa nyũmba yaku ũtarĩ thaahu no amarĩe.

And the first ripe of al that is in their land, which they shall bring vnto Lord, shalbe thine: all the cleane in thine house shall eate of it.

14 “Kĩndũ gĩothe kĩrĩ Isiraeli kĩrĩa kĩamũrĩirwo Jehova nĩ gĩaku.

Euery thing separate from the common vse in Israel, shalbe thine.

15 Marigithathi mothe, marĩ ma andũ kana ma nyamũ, marĩa marĩrutagĩrwo Jehova nĩ maku. No rĩrĩ, no nginya ũkũũrithagie irigithathi rĩothe rĩa kahĩĩ, na ũkũũrithagie irigithathi rĩa njamba rĩa nyamũ iria irĩ thaahu.

All that first openeth the matrice of any flesh, which they shall offer vnto the Lord, of man or beast, shalbe thine: but the first borne of man shalt thou redeeme, and the first borne of the vncleane beast shalt thou redeeme.

16 Marigithathi macio marĩ ma mweri ũmwe, no nginya ũkaamakũũrithia na thogora wa gũkũũrana ũrĩa ũtuĩtwo wa cekeri ithano cia betha, kũringana na cekeri ya handũ-harĩa-haamũre, ĩrĩa ĩrĩ na ũritũ wa geera mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ.

And those that are to bee redeemed, shalt thou redeeme from the age of a moneth, according to thy estimation, for the money of fiue shekels, after the shekel of the Sanctuarie, which is twentie gerahs.

17 “No mũtikanakũũrithie marigithathi ma ndegwa, kana ma ngʼondu, kana ma mbũri; icio nĩ nyamũre. Thakame yacio nĩĩminjaminjagwo kĩgongona-inĩ igũrũ, na maguta ma cio macinwo na mwaki nĩguo matuĩke igongona rĩ na mũtararĩko wa gũkenia Jehova.

But the first borne of a kow, or the first borne of a sheepe, or the first borne of a goate shalt thou not redeeme: for they are holy: thou shalt sprinkle their blood at the altar, and thou shalt burne their fat: it is a sacrifice made by fire for a sweete sauour vnto the Lord.

18 Nyama ciacio nĩ ciaku, o ta ũrĩa gĩthũri kĩa igongona rĩa gũthũngũthio na kĩero kĩa ũrĩo irĩ ciaku.

And the flesh of them shalbe thine, as the shake breast, and as the right shoulder shalbe thine.

19 Kĩrĩa gĩothe kĩamũragĩrwo Jehova nĩ andũ a Isiraeli kĩrĩ kĩamũre nĩndakũhe wee mwene, na ariũ aku, na airĩtu aku, kĩrĩ rũgai rwaku rwa hĩndĩ ciothe. Nĩkĩo kĩrĩkanĩro gĩa tene na tene gĩa cumbĩ mbere ya Jehova kũrĩ wee na njiaro ciaku.”

All the heaue offrings of the holy things which the children of Israel shall offer vnto the Lord, haue I giuen thee, and thy sonnes, and thy daughters with thee, to be a duetie for euer: it is a perpetual couenant of salt before the Lord, to thee, and to thy seede with thee.

20 Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Harũni atĩrĩ, “Wee ndũgakorwo na igai bũrũri-inĩ wao, kana ũgĩe na rũgai thĩinĩ wao; niĩ nĩ niĩ rũgai rwaku o na igai rĩaku thĩinĩ wa andũ a Isiraeli.

And the Lord sayde vnto Aaron, Thou shalt haue none inheritance in their lande, neyther shalt thou haue any parte among them: I am thy part and thine inheritance among the children of Israel.

21 “Nĩndahe Alawii icunjĩ ciothe cia ikũmi thĩinĩ wa Isiraeli, arĩ rĩo igai rĩao nĩ ũndũ wa wĩra ũrĩa marutaga rĩrĩa megũtungata Hema-inĩ-ya-Gũtũnganwo.

For beholde, I haue giuen the children of Leui all the tenth in Israel for an inheritance, for their seruice which they serue in the Tabernacle of the Congregation.

22 Kuuma rĩu andũ a Isiraeli matigakuhagĩrĩrie Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo, kana macookererwo nĩ mehia mao, nao makue.

Neyther shall the children of Israel any more come neere the Tabernacle of the Congregation, lest they susteine sinne, and die.

23 Alawii nĩo marĩrutaga wĩra Hema-inĩ-ya-Gũtũnganwo na nĩo marĩcookagĩrĩrwo nĩ mahĩtia marĩa meekĩirwo hau. Ũyũ nĩ watho wa gũtũũrio nĩ njiaro iria igooka. Matikagĩa na igai thĩinĩ wa andũ a Isiraeli.

But the Leuites shall do the seruice in the Tabernacle of the Congregation, and they shall beare their sinne: it is a law for euer in your generations, that among the children of Israel they possesse none inheritance.

24 Handũ ha ũguo-rĩ, ngũhe Alawii icunjĩ cia ikũmi iria andũ a Isiraeli marehaga irĩ maruta kũrĩ Jehova ituĩke igai rĩao. Nĩkĩo ndoigire igũrũ rĩao atĩrĩ: ‘Matikagĩa na igai thĩinĩ wa andũ a Isiraeli.’”

For the tythes of the children of Israel, which they shall offer as an offring vnto the Lord, I haue giuen the Leuites for an inheritance: therfore I haue said vnto them, Among the children of Israel ye shall possesse none inheritance.

25 Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ,

And the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,

26 “Arĩria Alawii, ũmeere atĩrĩ: ‘Rĩrĩa mwamũkĩra icunjĩ cia ikũmi kuuma kũrĩ andũ a Isiraeli iria ndĩmũheete arĩ cio igai rĩanyu-rĩ, no nginya mũrehage gĩcunjĩ gĩa ikũmi gĩa gĩcunjĩ kĩu, kĩrĩ iruta kũrĩ Jehova.

Speake also vnto the Leuites and say vnto them, When ye shall take of the children of Israel the tithes, which I haue giuen you of them for your inheritance, then shall ye take an heaue offring of that same for the Lord, euen the tenth part of the tithe.

27 Maruta manyu marĩtuĩkaga ta ngano ĩrĩa ĩrutĩtwo kĩhuhĩro-inĩ, kana ndibei ĩrĩa ĩrutĩtwo kĩhihĩro-inĩ.

And your heaue offering shalbe reckened vnto you, as the corne of the barne, or as the abundance of the wine presse.

28 Ũguo nĩguo o na inyuĩ mũrĩrutagĩra Jehova iruta kuuma kũrĩ icunjĩ cia ikũmi iria mũrĩamũkagĩra ciumĩte kũrĩ andũ a Isiraeli. Kuuma kũrĩ icunjĩ icio cia ikũmi, no nginya mũnengagĩre Harũni mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai gĩcunjĩ kĩa Jehova.

So ye shall also offer an heaue offring vnto the Lord of all your tithes, which ye shall receiue of the children of Israel, and ye shall giue thereof the Lords heaue offring to Aaron the Priest.

29 No nginya mũkarutagĩra Jehova gĩcunjĩ kĩrĩa kĩega mũno na kĩrĩa kĩamũre mũno kĩa indo ciothe iria mũheetwo.’

Ye shall offer of all your gifts al the Lords heaue offrings: of all the fat of the same shall ye offer the holy things thereof.

30 “Ĩra Alawii atĩrĩ, ‘Rĩrĩa mwaruta gĩcunjĩ kĩrĩa kĩega mũno-rĩ, kĩrĩtuĩkaga ta iruta rĩanyu riumĩte kĩhuhĩro-inĩ kĩa ngano kana kĩhihĩro-inĩ kĩa ndibei.

Therefore thou shalt say vnto them, When ye haue offred the fat thereof, then it shalbe couted vnto the Leuites, as the encrease of the corne floore, or as the encrease of the wine presse.

31 Inyuĩ na andũ a nyũmba cianyu no mũrĩĩre icio ingĩ handũ o hothe, nĩgũkorwo ũcio nĩ mũcaara wanyu nĩ ũndũ wa wĩra wanyu kũu Hema-inĩ-ya-Gũtũnganwo.

And ye shall eate it in al places, ye, and your housholdes: for it is your wages for your seruice in the Tabernacle of the Congregation.

32 Nĩ ũndũ wa kũruta gĩcunjĩ kĩu kĩega mũno gĩacio, mũtigaatuĩrwo mahĩtia nĩ ũndũ wa ũndũ ũyũ; na ningĩ mũtigathaahia maruta marĩa maamũre ma andũ a Isiraeli, na nĩ ũndũ ũcio mũtigaakua.’”

And ye shall beare no sinne by the reason of it, when ye haue offred the fatte of it: neither shall ye pollute the holy things of the children of Israel, lest ye die.
