गिनती 6
Yahweh also said this to Moses/me:
2 २ “इस्राएलियों से कह कि जब कोई पुरुष या स्त्री नाज़ीर की मन्नत, अर्थात् अपने को यहोवा के लिये अलग करने की विशेष मन्नत माने,
“Tell this to the Israeli people: ‘If any of you [wants to] make a solemn promise to dedicate himself to belong to me in a special way, [after you obey these instructions], you will be called a Nazir-man, [which means “dedicated man”].
3 ३ तब वह दाखमधु और मदिरा से अलग रहे; वह न दाखमधु का, और न मदिरा का सिरका पीए, और न दाख का कुछ रस भी पीए, वरन् दाख न खाए, चाहे हरी हो चाहे सूखी।
You must not drink any wine or other alcoholic/fermented drink. You must not drink any vinegar made from wine or from any other alcoholic/fermented drink. You must not drink grape juice or eat grapes or raisins.
4 ४ जितने दिन यह अलग रहे उतने दिन तक वह बीज से लेकर छिलके तक, जो कुछ दाखलता से उत्पन्न होता है, उसमें से कुछ न खाए।
You must not eat anything that comes from grapevines, not even the skins or seeds of grapes, during the time that you are a Nazir-man.
5 ५ “फिर जितने दिन उसने अलग रहने की मन्नत मानी हो उतने दिन तक वह अपने सिर पर छुरा न फिराए; और जब तक वे दिन पूरे न हों जिनमें वह यहोवा के लिये अलग रहे तब तक वह पवित्र ठहरेगा, और अपने सिर के बालों को बढ़ाए रहे।
‘Even your hair will be dedicated to me during the time that you area Nazir-man, so you must never allow anyone to cut your hair. Until the time that your solemn promise to dedicate yourself to me is ended, you must allow your hair to grow long.
And you must not go near a corpse during the time that you are a Nazir-man.
7 ७ चाहे उसका पिता, या माता, या भाई, या बहन भी मरे, तो भी वह उनके कारण अशुद्ध न हो; क्योंकि अपने परमेश्वर के लिये अलग रहने का चिन्ह उसके सिर पर होगा।
Even if the person who died is your father or your mother or your brother or your sister, you must not cause yourself to become unacceptable to me [by coming close to the corpse]. Your long hair [MTY] shows that you belong to me in a special way, so you must not cut your hair.
You are required to keep doing this all the time that you are dedicated to me in this special way.
9 ९ “यदि कोई उसके पास अचानक मर जाए, और उसके अलग रहने का जो चिन्ह उसके सिर पर होगा वह अशुद्ध हो जाए, तो वह शुद्ध होने के दिन, अर्थात् सातवें दिन अपना सिर मुँड़ाएँ।
‘If anyone dies very suddenly when he is near you, then your hair that you have dedicated to me is no longer sacred. So you must wait seven days and then shave it all off. Then you must perform a special ritual to cause yourself to become acceptable to me again.
10 १० और आठवें दिन वह दो पंडुक या कबूतरी के दो बच्चे मिलापवाले तम्बू के द्वार पर याजक के पास ले जाए,
The next day you must bring two doves or two young pigeons to the priest at the entrance of the Sacred Tent.
11 ११ और याजक एक को पापबलि, और दूसरे को होमबलि करके उसके लिये प्रायश्चित करे, क्योंकि वह लोथ के कारण पापी ठहरा है। और याजक उसी दिन उसका सिर फिर पवित्र करे,
‘The priest must [kill the birds and] offer them as sacrifices. One of them will be an offering to enable me to forgive you for the sins you have committed, and the other will be an offering that is burned completely to please me. [After the priest burns them on the altar], I will forgive you for having come close to a corpse, and [when] your hair [grows again it] will be dedicated to me again.
12 १२ और वह अपने अलग रहने के दिनों को फिर यहोवा के लिये अलग ठहराए, और एक वर्ष का एक भेड़ का बच्चा दोषबलि करके ले आए; और जो दिन इससे पहले बीत गए हों वे व्यर्थ गिने जाएँ, क्योंकि उसके अलग रहने का चिन्ह अशुद्ध हो गया।
The amount of time that you were set apart for me the previous time does not count, because you had become unacceptable to me [by coming close to a corpse] during the time that you were a Nazir-man. So you must again make a solemn promise to dedicate yourself to me for the entire amount of time that you indicated the previous time. And you must also sacrifice a one-year-old lamb for not doing what you were required to do.
13 १३ “फिर जब नाज़ीर के अलग रहने के दिन पूरे हों, उस समय के लिये उसकी यह व्यवस्था है; अर्थात् वह मिलापवाले तम्बू के द्वार पर पहुँचाया जाए,
‘When the time that you promised to dedicate yourself to me is ended, go to the entrance of the Sacred Tent
14 १४ और वह यहोवा के लिये होमबलि करके एक वर्ष का एक निर्दोष भेड़ का बच्चा पापबलि करके, और एक वर्ष की एक निर्दोष भेड़ की बच्ची, और मेलबलि के लिये एक निर्दोष मेढ़ा,
and offer as sacrifices to me three animals that have no defects: Offer a one-year-old ram that will be burned completely, a one-year-old female lamb as a sacrifice to enable me to forgive your sins, and one full-grown ram as a sacrifice to maintain fellowship with me.
15 १५ और अख़मीरी रोटियों की एक टोकरी, अर्थात् तेल से सने हुए मैदे के फुलके, और तेल से चुपड़ी हुई अख़मीरी पपड़ियाँ, और उन बलियों के अन्नबलि और अर्घ; ये सब चढ़ावे समीप ले जाए।
‘When you bring those animals, you must also bring some wine to offer as a sacrifice. And you must also bring a basket of bread that you have made with very good flour and [olive] oil. But you must not put any yeast in the bread. Also brush/spread some [olive] oil on some thin wafers and bring them to the priest.
‘The priest will put the young lamb and the young ram on the altar and completely burn them, in order that I will be pleased and will forgive you for your sins.
17 १७ और अख़मीरी रोटी की टोकरी समेत मेढ़े को यहोवा के लिये मेलबलि करके, और उस मेलबलि के अन्नबलि और अर्घ को भी चढ़ाए।
Then he will kill the full-grown ram as an offering to restore fellowship with me, and he will also burn on the altar some of the bread and the grain and wine.
18 १८ तब नाज़ीर अपने अलग रहने के चिन्हवाले सिर को मिलापवाले तम्बू के द्वार पर मुँड़ाकर अपने बालों को उस आग पर डाल दे जो मेलबलि के नीचे होगी।
‘After that, you must [stand at] the entrance of the Sacred Tent and shave off your hair. Then you must put that hair in the fire that is under the [animal that has been sacrificed] on the altar to maintain fellowship with me.
19 १९ फिर जब नाज़ीर अपने अलग रहने के चिन्हवाले सिर को मुँड़ा चुके तब याजक मेढ़े का पकाया हुआ कंधा, और टोकरी में से एक अख़मीरी रोटी, और एक अख़मीरी पपड़ी लेकर नाज़ीर के हाथों पर धर दे,
‘The meat from the ram’s shoulder must be boiled. After it is cooked, the priest will take it along with one of the loaves of bread and one wafer which has been brushed with [olive] oil, and he will put them in your hands.
20 २० और याजक इनको हिलाने की भेंट करके यहोवा के सामने हिलाए; हिलाई हुई छाती और उठाई हुई जाँघ समेत ये भी याजक के लिये पवित्र ठहरें; इसके बाद वह नाज़ीर दाखमधु पी सकेगा।
Then the priest will [take them back and] lift them up high to dedicate them to me. They now belong to the priest, and he is permitted to eat some of the meat from the ram’s shoulder and from its ribs and from one of its thighs, because that meat is his share of the sacrifice. After that, you will no longer be a Nazir-man, and you will again be permitted to drink wine.
21 २१ “नाज़ीर की मन्नत की, और जो चढ़ावा उसको अपने अलग होने के कारण यहोवा के लिये चढ़ाना होगा उसकी भी यही व्यवस्था है। जो चढ़ावा वह अपनी पूँजी के अनुसार चढ़ा सके, उससे अधिक जैसी मन्नत उसने मानी हो, वैसे ही अपने अलग रहने की व्यवस्था के अनुसार उसे करना होगा।”
‘Those are the regulations about the offerings that Nazir-men solemnly promise to bring to me to end their time of being dedicated to me. They must bring these offerings, but if they want to, they may bring additional offerings. And they must do everything that they solemnly promised to do when they dedicated themselves to me.’”
Yahweh also said to Moses/me,
“Tell Aaron and his sons that when they [ask me to] bless the people, they must say,
‘I desire that Yahweh will bless you and protect you,
and that he will smile at you and act kindly toward you,
and that he will be good to you [IDM] and cause things to go well for you.’”
Then Yahweh said, “If Aaron and his sons ask me to bless the Israeli people, truly I will bless them.”
