Ọnụọgụgụ 5
1 Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis okwu sị ya,
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
2 “Nye ndị Izrel iwu ka ha site nʼọmụma ụlọ ikwu ha kpọpụ onye ekpenta ọbụla maọbụ onye ihe si nʼahụ na-asọpụta, na ndị merụrụ onwe ha site nʼimetụ onye nwụrụ anwụ aka.
“Instruct the sons of Israel to cast out of the camp every leper, and those who have a flow of seed, and those who have been polluted because of the dead;
3 Iwu a metụtara onye ọbụla, nwoke na nwanyị. Kpọpụ ha ka ha gaa nʼazụ ọmụma ụlọ ikwu, ka ha ghara imerụ ogige ụlọ ikwu ha bụ ebe ahụ m binyere unu.”
cast out of the camp both male and female, lest they contaminate it while I am dwelling with you.”
4 Ndị Izrel mezuru iwu a, site nʼetiti ha kpọpụ ndị dị otu a, dịka Onyenwe anyị nyere Mosis nʼiwu.
And the sons of Israel did so, and they cast them out, beyond the camp, just as the Lord had spoken to Moses.
5 Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis okwu sị ya,
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
6 “Gwa ụmụ Izrel okwu sị ha, ‘Mgbe onye ọbụla, nwoke maọbụ nwanyị, mejọrọ mmadụ ibe ya nʼụzọ ọbụla, si otu a bụrụ onye na-ekwesighị ntụkwasị obi nye Onyenwe anyị bụ onye ikpe mara.
“Say to the sons of Israel: A man or a woman, when they have done anything out of all the sins that often befall men, or if, by negligence, they have transgressed the commandment of the Lord, and so have committed an offense,
7 Onye dị otu a aghaghị ikwupụta mmehie ya, kwụghachi onye ahụ o mejọrọ ihe iwu kwuru na ọ ga-akwụ. Ọ ga-atụkwasị nʼelu ihe ọ na-akwụghachi onye ahụ o mejọrọ ego ọzọ ruru otu ụzọ nʼụzọ ise.
they shall confess their sin, and they shall restore the principle itself, plus a fifth part above it, to any against whom they have sinned.
8 Ma ọ bụrụ na onye ahụ enweghị onye ikwu ya bụ onye a ga-akwụghachi ụgwọ nʼihi mejọọ ahụ, ihe ịkwụghachi ụgwọ ahụ ga-abụ nke Onyenwe anyị, aghaghị inye onye nchụaja. A ga-atụkwasịkwa ya ebule a ga-eji chụọ aja mkpuchi mmehie nʼihi onye ahụ mehiere.
But if there would be no one to receive it, they shall give it to the Lord, and it shall be for the priest, except for the ram, which is offered for expiation, in order to be a pleasing victim.
9 Onyinye niile dị nsọ ndị Izrel wetaara onye nchụaja bụ nke onye nchụaja ahụ.
Likewise, all the first-fruits, which the sons of Israel offer, belong to the priest,
10 Onyinye dị nsọ niile mmadụ na-eweta bụ nke onye na-eweta ya, ma onyinye e nyere onye nchụaja bụ nke onye nchụaja.’”
with whatever is offered by each one at the Sanctuary, and which is delivered into the hands of the priest; it shall be his.”
11 Mgbe ahụ, Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis okwu sị,
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
12 “Gwa ụmụ Izrel okwu sị ha, Ọ bụrụ na nwunye mmadụ ejehie ụzọ bụrụ onye na-ekwesighị ntụkwasị obi nʼebe di ya nọ
“Speak to the sons of Israel, and you shall say to them: The man whose wife will have gone astray, and, disdaining her husband,
13 site nʼidinakwuru nwoke ọzọ nʼụzọ zoro ezo nʼebe di ya nọ ruo na achọpụtaghị adịghị ọcha ya (ebe a na-enweghị onye ga-agba akaebe megide ya, maọbụ na e jidere ya mgbe ọ na-akwa iko ahụ),
will have slept with another man, and if her husband cannot discover it, but the adultery is secret, and if it cannot be proved by witnesses, because she was not caught in the shameful act,
14 ọ bụrụ na mmụọ ekworo abịakwasị di ya, ọ bụrụkwa na di nwanyị ahụ na-enyo nwunye ya enyo, na-ele ya anya dịka onye merụrụ onwe ya, ma ọ bụkwanụ, ọ bụrụ na di ya esite nʼekworo nyoo nwunye ya, ọ bụ ezie na nwanyị ahụ bụ onye na-emerụghị onwe ya,
if the spirit of jealousy stirs up the husband against his wife, who either has been polluted or is being assailed with a false suspicion,
15 nwoke a ga-akpọrọ nwunye ya bịakwute onye nchụaja. Ọ ga-eweta onyinye iji ịbịaru nso nʼihi nwunye ya, nke bụ iko ụtụ ọka balị abụọ a na-awụkwasịghị mmanụ, maọbụ ụda na-esi isi ụtọ a gwakọrọ agwakọ, nʼihi na ọ bụ onyinye mkpụrụ ọka e sitere nʼobi jupụtara nʼekworo nye, onyinye ịkpọtụ uche nʼikpe ọmụma.
he shall bring her to the priest, and he shall offer an oblation for her, a tenth part of native barley meal. He shall not pour oil over it, nor shall he place frankincense on it, because it is a sacrifice for jealousy, or an oblation investigating adultery.
16 “‘Onye nchụaja ga-akpọbata nwanyị a mee ka o guzo nʼihu Onyenwe anyị.
Therefore, the priest shall offer it, and he shall set it in the sight of the Lord.
17 Ọ ga-ekunye mmiri nsọ nʼime ite aja, kporo aja nʼala site nʼụlọ nzute ahụ wụnye ya nʼime mmiri ahụ.
And he shall take up holy water in an earthen vessel, and he shall cast a little earth from the pavement of the tabernacle into it.
18 Dịka nwanyị ahụ guzo nʼihu Onyenwe anyị, onye nchụaja ahụ ga-atọsa agịrị isi ya, tinye onyinye mkpụrụ ọka ncheta ahụ, nke bụ onyinye mkpụrụ ọka ekworo ahụ nʼọbụaka nwanyị a. Onye nchụaja nʼonwe ya ga-eguzo nʼihu nwanyị a jide ite mmiri ilu ahụ na-eweta ọbụbụ ọnụ.
And while the woman stands before the Lord, he shall uncover her head, and he shall place over her hands the sacrifice of recollection and oblation of jealousy. But he shall take hold of the most bitter waters, in which he has gathered curses with loathing.
19 Mgbe ahụ, onye nchụaja ga-eme ka nwanyị a ṅụọ iyi, mgbe ọ na-agwa ya okwu sị, “Ọ bụrụ na o nweghị nwoke ọbụla gị na ya nwere mmekọ, ọ bụrụ na ị kpafughị ghọọ onye na-adịghị ọcha mgbe ị nọ nʼụlọ di gị, ka ihe ọjọọ ọbụla ghara izute gị site na mmiri ilu a na-eweta ọbụbụ ọnụ.
And he shall bind her by an oath, and he shall say: ‘If another man has not slept with you, and if you have not been polluted by forsaking the bed of your husband, these most bitter waters, into which I have gathered curses, shall not harm you.
20 Ma ọ bụrụ na ị kpafuola mgbe ị ka nọ nʼụlọ di gị, ọ bụrụ na i merụọla onwe gị site na idinakwuru nwoke ọzọ na-abụghị di gị,”
But if you have turned away from your husband, and also have been defiled, and have lain together with another man,
21 (nʼoge a, onye nchụaja ga-eme ka nwanyị a ṅụọ iyi nke ya na ọbụbụ ọnụ a so, gwa nwanyị okwu sị ya) “ka Onyenwe anyị mee ka ndị ị nọ nʼetiti ha bụọ gị ọnụ ma kọchaa gị mgbe o mere ka apata gị ree ure, mgbe o mere ka afọ gị koo eko.
these curses shall be thrown upon you: May the Lord turn you into a curse and an example among all his people. May he cause your thigh to rot, and may your abdomen swell up and burst out.
22 Ka mmiri ilu a, nke na-eweta ọbụbụ ọnụ banye gị nʼahụ ime ka afọ gị koo eko, imekwa ka akpanwa gị daa ada.” “‘Nwanyị ahụ ga-aza sị, “Amen, ya dịrị m otu a.”
May the cursed waters enter into your stomach, and may your womb swell and your thigh rot.’ And the woman shall respond: ‘Amen, amen.’
23 “‘Mgbe ahụ onye nchụaja ahụ ga-ede ọbụbụ ọnụ ndị a nʼakwụkwọ, sanye ha nʼime mmiri ilu ahụ.
And the priest shall write these curses in a little book, and then he shall erase them with the very bitter waters, into which he had gathered the curses,
24 Mgbe ahụ, ọ ga-enye nwanyị a mmiri ilu ahụ na-eweta ọbụbụ ọnụ ka ọ ṅụọ, mmiri a ga-abanye ya nʼime ahụ, wetara ya ịta ahụhụ dị ilu.
and he shall give it to her to drink. And when she has emptied it,
25 Emesịa, onye nchụaja ga-anara nwanyị ahụ onyinye mkpụrụ ọka ekworo ahụ o ji nʼọbụaka ya, fegharịa ya nʼihu Onyenwe anyị, buru ya gaa nʼebe ịchụ aja.
the priest shall take from her hand the sacrifice of jealousy, and he shall elevate it before the Lord, and he shall impose it upon the altar. Yet only after he first
26 Onye nchụaja ga-esite nʼonyinye mkpụrụ ahụ kporo nke ga-eju ya aka, nke na-anọchite anya ha niile, suo ha ọkụ nʼelu ebe ịchụ aja. Emesịa, ọ ga-enye nwanyị ahụ mmiri ahụ ka ọ ṅụọ.
takes a handful of the sacrifice from that which is offered, and burns it upon the altar, and then he may give the most bitter waters to the woman as a drink.
27 Ọ bụrụ na nwanyị a emerụọla onwe ya, bụrụ onye na-ekwesighị ntụkwasị obi nye di ya, mgbe ọ ṅụrụ mmiri na-eweta ọbụbụ ọnụ, ọ ga-abanye nʼime ya wetara ya ahụhụ dị ilu. Afọ ya ga-eko, buo ibu, akpanwa ya a gaghị anagide nwa. Ọ ga-aghọ onye a bụrụ ọnụ nʼetiti ndị ya.
And when she drinks it, if she has been defiled, and, having despised her husband, is guilty of adultery, the curse shall pass through her, and as her belly swells up, her thigh shall decay, and the woman shall become a curse and an example to all the people.
28 Ma ọ bụrụ na nwanyị emerụghị onwe ya, kama ọ bụ onye dị ọcha, ọ ga-abụ onye nwere onwe ya site nʼikpe ọmụma. Ọ ga-atụrụ ime mụta ụmụ.
But if she has not been defiled, she shall be unharmed and she shall bear children.
29 “‘Nke a bụ iwu metụtara ikwo ekworo mgbe nwanyị bi nʼụlọ di ya kpafuru merụọ onwe ya.
This is the law for jealousy. If a woman has turned aside from her husband, and if she has been polluted,
30 Maọbụ mgbe ekworo jupụtara nwoke nʼobi nʼihi na ọ gụrụ nwunye ya dịka onye na-ekwesighị ntụkwasị obi. Onye nchụaja ga-eme ka nwanyị a guzo nʼihu Onyenwe anyị, mezuokwa ihe niile nʼusoro dịka e si depụta ha nʼebe a.
and if the husband, being stirred up by the spirit of jealousy, has brought her before the sight of the Lord, and the priest has acted toward her according to all that has been written:
31 A gaghị ama di nwanyị a ikpe dịka onye mere ihe ọjọọ, kama nwanyị a ga-ebu ahụhụ ya na mmehie ya naanị ya.’”
then the husband shall be without guilt, and she shall bear her iniquity.”
