Ndari 5
1 Nake Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ,
Yahweh spoke to Moses. He said,
2 “Atha andũ a Isiraeli maingate kuuma kambĩ-inĩ yao mũndũ o wothe ũrũarĩte mũrimũ wa ngoothi ũrĩa ũngĩgwatanio, kana mũndũ ũrĩ na handũ o na ha he kuura, kana mũndũ ũrĩ na thaahu nĩ ũndũ wa kũhutia kĩimba.
“Command the people of Israel to send away from the camp everyone with an infectious skin disease, and everyone who has an oozing sore, and whoever is unclean through touching a dead body.
3 Ingata arũme o na andũ-a-nja; ũmaingate nja ya kambĩ nĩguo matigathaahie kambĩ yao kũrĩa niĩ ndũũranagia na inyuĩ.”
Whether male or female, you must send them out of the camp. They must not defile the camp, because I live in it.”
4 Ũguo noguo andũ a Isiraeli meekire; makĩruta andũ acio nja ya kambĩ. Magĩĩka o ũrĩa Jehova aathĩte Musa gwĩkwo.
The people of Israel did so. They sent them out of the camp, as Yahweh commanded Moses. The people of Israel obeyed Yahweh.
5 Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ,
Again Yahweh spoke to Moses. He said,
6 “Ĩra andũ a Isiraeli atĩrĩ, ‘Rĩrĩa mũndũ mũrũme kana mũndũ-wa-nja angĩhĩtĩria mũndũ ũrĩa ũngĩ na njĩra o yothe, na nĩ ũndũ ũcio aage kwĩhokeka harĩ Jehova-rĩ, mũndũ ũcio nĩ mũhĩtia,
“Speak to the people of Israel. When a man or woman commits any sin such as people do to one another, and is unfaithful to me, that person is guilty.
7 na no nginya oimbũre mehia marĩa ekĩte. No nginya arute irĩhi rĩothe nĩ ũndũ wa mahĩtia macio make, na ongerere gĩcunjĩ gĩa ithano kũrĩ irĩhi rĩu, anengere mũndũ ũcio ahĩtĩirie.
Then he must confess the sin that he has done. He must completely pay back the price of his guilt and add to the price one-fifth more. He must give this to the one he has wronged.
8 No mũndũ ũcio angĩkorwo ndarĩ na mũndũ wa nyũmba yao ũrĩa ũngĩrĩhwo nĩ ũndũ wa ihĩtia rĩu, irĩhi rĩu rĩrĩtuĩkaga rĩa Jehova, na no nginya rĩnengerwo mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai rĩrĩ hamwe na ndũrũme ya kũrutwo igongona rĩa horohio nĩ ũndũ wake.
But if the wronged person has no close relative to receive the payment, he must pay the price for his guilt to me through a priest, along with a ram to atone for himself.
9 Maruta mothe maamũre marĩa andũ a Isiraeli marĩrehagĩra mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai-rĩ, marĩtuĩkaga make.
Every offering of the people of Israel, the things that are set aside and brought to the priest by the people of Israel, will belong to him.
10 Iheo cia o mũndũ iria nyamũre nĩ ciake we mwene, no kĩrĩa angĩhe mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai, gĩgaatuĩka kĩa mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũcio.’”
The offerings of every person will be for the priest; if anyone gives anything to the priest, it will belong to him.”
11 Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ,
Again, Yahweh spoke to Moses. He said,
12 “Arĩria andũ a Isiraeli, ũmeere atĩrĩ: ‘Mũtumia wa mũndũ angĩhĩngĩcania mĩthiĩre yake, atuĩke ti mwĩhokeku harĩ we
“Speak to the people of Israel. Say to them, 'Suppose that a man's wife turns away and sins against her husband.
13 na ũndũ wa gũkoma na mũndũ ũngĩ, na ũndũ ũcio ũhithwo mũthuuriwe na thaahu wake wage kũmenyeka (tondũ hatirĩ mũira wa kũmuumbũra, na ndaakorereirwo agĩĩka ũndũ ũcio-rĩ),
Then suppose that another man sleeps with her. In that case, she is defiled. Even if her husband does not see it or know about it, and even if no one catches her in the act and there is no one to testify against her,
14 na mũthuuriwe aiguĩre mũtumia wake ũiru na amwĩkũũĩre atĩ nĩethaahĩtie, kana amũiguĩre ũiru na amwĩkũũĩre o na akorwo atethaahĩtie,
nevertheless, a spirit of jealousy might still inform the husband that his wife is defiled. However, a spirit of jealousy might falsely come on a man when his wife is not defiled.
15 hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩatware mũtumia wake harĩ mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai. Ningĩ no nginya atware gĩcunjĩ gĩa ikũmi kĩa eba ĩmwe ya mũtu wa cairi nĩ ũndũ wa mũtumia wake. Ndagaitĩrĩrie mũtu ũcio maguta kana awĩkĩre ũbumba, nĩ ũndũ rĩu nĩ iruta rĩa mũtu rĩrutagwo nĩ ũndũ wa ũiru, iruta rĩa mũtu rĩa kĩririkano, rĩa kũririkanania ihĩtia rĩu.
In such cases, the man must bring his wife to the priest. The husband must take an offering required on her behalf, a tenth of an ephah of barley flour. He must pour no oil on it and put no frankincense on it, because it is a grain offering of jealousy, a grain offering for remembering, as a reminder of the iniquity.
16 “‘Mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩagatwara mũtumia ũcio amũrũgamie mbere ya Jehova.
The priest must bring her near and place her before Yahweh.
17 Acooke oe maaĩ maamũre marĩ ndigithũ-inĩ ya rĩũmba, na ahakũre rũkũngũ hau thĩ ya Hema-ĩrĩa-Nyamũre arwĩkĩre maaĩ-inĩ macio.
The priest must take a jar of holy water and take dust from the floor of the tabernacle. He must put the dust into the water.
18 Mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai aarĩkia kũrũgamia mũtumia ũcio mbere ya Jehova, nĩakamuohora njuĩrĩ yake, acooke amũnengere iruta rĩu rĩa kĩririkano rĩa mũtu nĩ ũndũ wa ũiru arĩnyiite na moko, nake mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai we mwene akorwo anyiitĩte maaĩ macio marũrũ marĩa marehaga kĩrumi.
The priest will set the woman before Yahweh and he will untie the hair on the woman's head. He will put into her hands the grain offering of remembrance, which is the grain offering of suspicion. The priest will hold in his hand the bitter water that can bring a curse.
19 Mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai acooke ehĩtithie mũtumia ũcio, amwĩre atĩrĩ, “Angĩkorwo hatirĩ mũndũ ũngĩ ũkomete nawe, na ndũhĩngĩcanĩtie mĩthiĩre yaku ũgethaahia hĩndĩ ĩrĩa ũrĩ na mũthuuri-rĩ, maaĩ maya marũrũ marĩa marehaga kĩrumi maroaga gũgwĩka ũũru.
The priest will put the woman under an oath and say to her, 'If no other man had sexual relations with you, and if you have not gone astray and committed impurity, then you will be free from this bitter water that can bring a curse.
20 No angĩkorwo nĩũhĩngĩcanĩtie mĩthiĩre yaku ũrĩ na mũthuuri na ũgethaahia nĩ ũndũ wa gũkoma na mũndũ ũngĩ tiga mũthuuriguo-rĩ,”
But if you, a woman under her husband, have gone astray, if you are defiled, and if some other man has slept with you,
21 hĩndĩ ĩyo mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩakehĩtithia mũtumia ũcio na mwĩhĩtwa ũyũ ũrehanagĩra kĩrumi, oige atĩrĩ, “Jehova arotũma andũ anyu makũrume na magũkaane, rĩrĩa agaatũma kĩero gĩaku kĩhinyare na nda yaku ĩimbe.
then, (the priest must cause the woman to swear an oath that can bring down a curse on her, and then he must continue speaking to the woman) 'Yahweh will make you into a curse that will be shown to your people to be such. This will happen if Yahweh causes your thigh to waste away and your abdomen to swell.
22 Namo maaĩ maya marehaga kĩrumi marotoonya mwĩrĩ waku, nayo nda yaku ĩimbe na kĩero gĩaku kĩhinyare.” “‘Nake mũtumia ũcio acooke oige atĩrĩ, “Ameni, nĩgũtuĩke ũguo.”
This water that brings the curse will go into your stomach and make your abdomen swell and your thighs waste away.' The woman is to reply, 'Yes, let that happen if I am guilty.'
23 “‘Mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩakandĩka irumi icio ibuku-inĩ rĩa gĩkũnjo, acooke acithambĩrie maaĩ-inĩ macio marũrũ.
The priest must write these curses on a scroll, and then he must wash away the written curses into the bitter water.
24 Nĩagatũma mũtumia ũcio anyue maaĩ macio marũrũ marehaga kĩrumi, namo maaĩ macio mamũtoonye na matũme aigue ruo rũnene mũno.
The priest must make the woman drink the bitter water that brings the curse. The water that brings the curse will enter her and become bitter.
25 Mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai acooke oe iruta rĩu rĩa mũtu nĩ ũndũ wa ũiru kuuma moko-inĩ ma mũtumia ũcio, arĩthũngũthie mbere ya Jehova, na acooke arĩrehe kĩgongona-inĩ.
The priest must take the grain offering of jealousy out of the woman's hand. He must hold up the grain offering before Yahweh and bring it to the altar.
26 Ningĩ mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũcio arũme ngundi ĩmwe ya mũtu ũcio ũrutĩtwo ũrĩ wa kĩririkano na aũcinĩre igũrũ rĩa kĩgongona; thuutha ũcio atũme mũtumia ũcio anyue maaĩ macio.
The priest must take a handful of the grain offering as a representative offering, and burn it on the altar. Then he must give the woman the bitter water to drink.
27 Angĩkorwo nĩethaahĩtie na ti mwĩhokeku harĩ mũthuuriwe-rĩ, rĩrĩa akaanyuithio maaĩ macio marehaga kĩrumi, nĩ makaamũtoonya matũme aigue ruo rũnene mũno, na nda yake ĩimbe na kĩero gĩake kĩhinyare, nake atuĩke thaahu kũrĩ andũ ao.
When he gives her the water to drink, if she is defiled because she has committed a sin against her husband, then the water that brings the curse will enter her and become bitter. Her abdomen will swell and her thigh will waste away. The woman will be cursed among her people.
28 No rĩrĩ, angĩkorwo mũtumia ũcio ndethaahĩtie na akorwo nĩ mũthingu-rĩ, ndagatuuo mũhĩtia, na nĩakahota kũgĩa na ciana.
But if the woman is not defiled and if she is clean, then she must be free. She will be able to conceive children.
29 “‘Ũyũ nĩguo watho wa ũiru rĩrĩa mũtumia angĩhĩngĩcania mĩthiĩre yake, ethaahie o arĩ na mũthuuri,
This is the law of jealousy. It is the law for a woman who strays away from her husband and is defiled.
30 kana rĩrĩa mũndũ mũrũme angĩnyiitwo nĩ ũiru nĩ ũndũ nĩegwĩkũũa mũtumia ũcio wake. Mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai arĩmũrũgamagia mbere ya Jehova na arũmĩrĩre watho ũcio wothe.
It is the law for a man with a spirit of jealousy when he is jealous of his wife. He must bring the woman before Yahweh, and the priest must do to her everything that this law of jealousy describes.
31 Mũthuuriwe nĩagatuuo ndarĩ na ihĩtia o na rĩrĩkũ, no mũtumia ũcio nĩwe ũgaacookererwo nĩ mehia make.’”
The man will be free from guilt for bringing his wife to the priest. The woman must bear any guilt she might have.”
