Ọnụọgụgụ 6
1 Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis sị,
The Lord told Moses,
2 Gwa ndị Izrel sị ha, “Mgbe nwoke maọbụ nwanyị ṅụrụ iyi o ji kpebie ikwe nkwa pụrụ iche nke ikewapụ onwe ya nye Onyenwe anyị dịka onye Nazirait,
“Tell the Israelites: If a man or a woman makes a special promise to become a Nazirite, to dedicate themselves to the Lord,
3 ha ga-ekewapụ onwe ha site na ịṅụ mmanya, maọbụ detụ ihe ọṅụṅụ ọbụla na-aba nʼanya ire. Ha agaghị aṅụ mmiri mkpụrụ vaịnị, ọ gaghị ata mkpụrụ vaịnị ọhụrụ maọbụ nke a mịkpọrọ amịkpọ.
they must not drink any wine or other alcoholic drink. They must not even drink vinegar made from wine or other alcoholic drink, or any grape juice or eat grapes or raisins.
4 Oge ahụ niile ọ bụ onye Nazirait, ọ gaghị eri ihe ọbụla sitere na mkpụrụ osisi vaịnị maọbụ mkpụrụ ya maọbụ okpokoro azụ ya.
The whole time they are dedicated to the Lord they must not eat anything from a grapevine, not even grape seeds or skins.
5 “‘Nʼime oge niile nke imezu nkwa ikewapụ onwe ya nye Onyenwe anyị, agụba agaghị agabiga ya nʼisi. Ọ ga-anọgide bụrụ onye dị nsọ tutu ruo oge nkwa ikewapụ onwe ya nye Onyenwe anyị zuru. Nʼihi nke a, ọ ga-ahapụ agịrị isi ya ka o too.
They must not use a razor on their heads during the whole time of this promise of dedication. They must remain holy until their time of dedication to the Lord is finished. They must let their hair grow long.
6 “‘Nʼime oge niile nke imezu nkwa ikewapụ onwe ya nye Onyenwe anyị, ọ gaghị aga nso mmadụ ọbụla nwụrụ anwụ,
During this time of dedication to the Lord they must not go near a dead body.
7 ọ bụladị na nna ya, maọbụ nne ya, maọbụ nwanne ya nwoke, maọbụ nwanne ya nwanyị anwụọ. Ọ gaghị emerụ onwe ya nʼihi ha, nʼihi na akara ikewapụ onwe ya iche nye Chineke dị ya nʼisi.
Even if it's their father, mother, brother or sister who has died, they are not to make themselves unclean, because their uncut hair announces their dedication to God.
8 Nʼoge niile nke ikewapụ onwe ya, onye e doro nsọ nye Onyenwe anyị ka ọ bụ.
Through the whole time of their dedication they are to be holy to the Lord.
9 “‘Ọ bụrụ na mmadụ anwụọ na mberede nʼakụkụ onye nazirait, si otu a merụọ agịrị isi ya nke na-egosi ido nsọ ya, ọ ghaghị ịkpacha isi ya nʼụbọchị nke asaa bụ ụbọchị ime ka ọ dị ọcha.
However, if someone dies suddenly close to them, making them unclean, they must wait seven days, and on the seventh day when they are made clean again they are to shave their heads.
10 Nʼụbọchị nke ọzọ ya, bụ nʼụbọchị nke asatọ. Ọ ghaghị iwetara onye nchụaja nduru abụọ maọbụ ụmụ kpalakwukwu abụọ, nʼọnụ ụzọ ụlọ nzute ahụ.
On the eighth day they shall take two turtledoves or two young pigeons to the priest at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.
11 Onye nchụaja ahụ ga-ewere otu nʼime ha chụọrọ ya aja mmehie. Ọ ga-ewerekwa nnụnụ nke ọzọ chụọrọ ya aja nsure ọkụ maka ikpuchiri onye ahụ nwere akara ido nsọ mmehie ya, bụ nke o mere site nʼịnọ onye nwụrụ anwụ nso. Ọ ga-edokwa isi ya nsọ ọzọ nʼụbọchị ahụ.
The priest will offer one as a sin offering and the other as a burnt offering to make them right, because they became guilty by being near the dead body. On that day they must re-dedicate themselves and let their hair grow again.
12 Ọ ga-ekewapụ onwe ya nye Onyenwe anyị dịka o mere na mmalite ụbọchị niile nke ido nsọ ya. Wetakwa otu nwa ebule gbara otu afọ maka aja ikpe ọmụma. A gaghị agụnyere ya ụbọchị ndị ahụ niile gafere tupu o merụọ onwe ya, nʼihi na o merụrụ onwe ya mgbe ọ nọ ọnọdụ imezu nkwa nkewapụ.
They must re-dedicate themselves to the Lord for the full time they originally promised and bring a one-year-old male lamb as a guilt offering. The previous days don't count towards the time of dedication because they became unclean.
13 “‘Nke a bụ iwu dịrị onye Nazirait mgbe oge ido onwe ya nsọ nye Onyenwe anyị zuru. A ga-eduru ya bịa nʼọnụ ụzọ ụlọ nzute ahụ.
These are the rules to be observed when the Nazirite's time of dedication is finished. They are to be taken to the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.
14 Nʼebe ahụ ka ọ ga-anọ chee onyinye ya ndị a nʼihu Onyenwe anyị: nwa ebule na-enweghị ntụpọ, gbara otu afọ, maka aja nsure ọkụ na otu nwa nne atụrụ na-enweghị ntụpọ gbara otu afọ maka aja mmehie, na otu ebule ahụ zuruoke maka aja udo,
There they are to present an offering to the Lord of a one-year-old male lamb without defects as a burnt offering, a one-year-old female lamb without defects as a sin offering, and ram without defects as a peace offering.
15 tinyere aja mkpụrụ ọka, na aja ihe ọṅụṅụ na otu nkata achịcha a na-ejighị ihe na-eko achịcha mee, na achịcha e ji ezi ụtụ ọka a gwara mmanụ oliv mee, na achịcha mbadamba na-ekoghị eko nke e tere mmanụ oliv.
In addition they are to bring a basket of bread without yeast made from the best flour mixed with olive oil and wafers without yeast coated with olive oil as well as their grain offerings and drink offerings.
16 “‘Onye nchụaja ahụ ga-eche ihe aja ndị a niile nʼihu Onyenwe anyị, chụọ aja mmehie na aja nsure ọkụ.
The priest will present all these before the Lord as well as sacrificing the sin offering and the burnt offering.
17 Ọ ga-eji nwa ebule ahụ chụọ aja udo nye Onyenwe anyị, ya na nkata achịcha na-ekoghị eko ahụ. Ọ ga-achụkwa aja mkpụrụ ọka, na aja ihe ọṅụṅụ.
He will also sacrifice a ram as a peace offering to the Lord, together with the basket of bread made without yeast. In addition the priest will present the grain offering and drink offering.
18 “‘Mgbe ahụ, onye ahụ doro onwe ya nsọ nye Onyenwe anyị ga-akpụchapụ agịrị isi ya nke bụ ihe na-egosi ido nsọ ya. Ọ ga-eme nke a na mbata ọnụ ụzọ ụlọ nzute ahụ. Emesịa, ọ ga-etinye agịrị isi ahụ ọ kpụchapụtara nʼọkụ ahụ dị nʼokpuru aja udo ahụ.
Then the Nazirites are to shave their heads at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting. They shall take the hair from their heads that were dedicated, and place it on the fire under the peace offering.
19 “‘Mgbe a kpụchasịrị onye ahụ agịrị isi ya, nke na-egosi ido nsọ ya, onye nchụaja ga-ewere ubu aka ebule ahụ e sịrị esi, otu ogbe achịcha na-ekoghị eko na otu mbadamba achịcha na-ekoghị eko site na nkata ahụ, tinye ha niile nʼaka onye ahụ.
Once the Nazirites have shaved, the priest will take the boiled shoulder from the ram, one bread without yeast from the basket, and one wafer without yeast, and place them in their hands.
20 Onye nchụaja ahụ nʼoge a, ga-ewere aja ndị a fufee ha nʼihu Onyenwe anyị dịka aja mfufe. Ha niile ga-abụ ihe nsọ nye onye nchụaja ahụ, tinyere obi anụ ahụ e fufere efufe, na apata anụ ahụ e chere nʼihu Onyenwe anyị. Mgbe nke a gasịrị, onye ahụ doro onwe ya nsọ nwere onwe ya ịṅụ mmanya.
The priest will wave them as a wave offering before the Lord. These items are holy and belong to the priest, as well as the breast of the wave offering and the thigh that was offered. Once this is finished, Nazirites may drink wine.
21 “‘Nke a bụ iwu dịrị onye ọ bụla kpebiri ikewapụ onwe ya nye Onyenwe anyị dịka onye Nazirait. Onyinye onye ahụ ga-enye ga-abụ dịka nkwa ido nsọ ya si dị, tinyere ihe ndị ọzọ ha nwere ike inye. Onye dị otu a aghaghị imezu nkwa ọbụla o kwere dịka iwu metụtara onye Nazirait si dị.’”
These are the rules to be observed when a Nazirite promises to give offerings to the Lord regarding their dedication. They can also bring additional offerings if they can afford it. Every Nazirite must fulfill whatever promises they have made when they dedicated themselves.”
22 Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis okwu sị,
The Lord told Moses,
23 “Gwa Erọn na ụmụ ya ndị ikom sị, ‘Otu a ka unu ga-esi gọzie ndị Izrel. Unu ga-asị ha,
“Tell Aaron and his sons: This is how you are to bless the Israelites. This is what they are to say:
24 “‘“Onyenwe anyị gọzie unu ma chebe unu,
‘May the Lord bless you and take care of you.
25 Onyenwe anyị mee ka ihu ya mụkwasị unu, ma meere unu amara,
May the Lord smile on you and be gracious to you.
26 Onyenwe anyị chee ihu ya nʼebe unu nọ, nyekwa unu udo.”’
May the Lord watch over you and give you peace.’
27 “Otu a ka ha ga-esi kwupụta aha m nye ụmụ Izrel. Mụ onwe m ga-agọzikwa ha.”
Whenever the priests bless the Israelites in my name, I will bless them.”
