1 Kinasarita ni Yahweh da Aaron ken Moises. Kinunana,
Yahweh said to Aaron and Moses/me,
2 “Maysa daytoy nga alagaden, maysa a linteg nga ibilbilinko kadakayo: Ibagayo kadagiti tattao iti Israel a nasken a mangiyegda kadakayo iti nalabaga nga urbon a baka nga awan pakapilawan wenno mulitna, ken saan pay a pulos a naipakpako iti sangol.
“I am now giving to you another regulation. Tell the Israeli people to bring to you one reddish-brown cow that has no defects. It must be an animal that (has never been/no one has ever) used for plowing ground.
3 Itedyonto ti urbon a baka kenni Eleazar a padi. Masapul nga ipanna daytoy iti ruar ti kampo, ken masapul nga addanto mangpatayi iti daytoy iti sangoananna.
Give it to Eleazar, the priest. He must take it outside the camp and slaughter it [and drain the blood in a basin].
4 Masapul nga isawsaw ni Eleazar a padi ti ramayna iti dara sana iwarsi daytoy iti maminpito a daras iti sangoanan ti tabernakulo.
He must dip one of his fingers in the blood and sprinkle some of it seven times [on the ground] near the Sacred Tent.
5 Sabali met a padi ti nasken a mangpuor iti urbon a baka iti imatang ni Eleazar. Nasken a puoranna ti lalat, ti lasag, ken ti dara agraman ti takki ti baka.
Then, while Eleazar watches, the cow must be burned completely—its hide, its meat, [the rest of] its blood, and even its dung.
6 Masapul a mangala ti padi iti kayo a sedro, hisopo, ken escarlata, sana ipuruak amin dagitoy iti tengnga ti pakapupuoran ti baka.
Eliezer then must take a stick of cedar wood, a stalk of [a plant named] hyssop, and some scarlet/red yarn, and throw them into the fire where the cow is burning.
7 Kalpasanna, masapul a labaanna ti kawesna ken agdigos isuna iti danum. Ket mabalinton isuna a mapan iti kampo, ket agtalinaedto a narugit sadiay agingga iti rabii.
“Then the priest must wash his clothes and bathe. After doing that, he may return to the camp. But he will be unfit for doing any sacred work until that evening.
8 Masapul met a labaan ti tao a nangpuor iti baka dagiti kawesna iti danum sa agdigos iti danum. Agtalinaed isuna a narugit agingga iti rabii.
The man who burns the cow must also wash his clothes and bathe, and he will also be unacceptable to me until that evening.
9 Maysa a tao a nadalus ti nasken a mangurnong iti dapo ti urbon a baka sana ikabil dagitoy iti nadalus a disso iti ruar ti kampo. Nasken a maidulin dagitoy a dapo para kadagiti tattao iti Israel. Ilaokda dagiti dapo iti danum para iti pannakadalus manipud iti basol, agsipud ta dagiti dapo ket nagtaud iti daton gapu iti basol.
“Then someone who has not become unacceptable to me must gather up the ashes of the cow and put them in a (sacred place/place that is acceptable to me) outside the camp. The ashes must be kept there for the people of Israel to [use when they] mix it with water for the ritual to remove the guilt of sin.
10 Ti tao a nangurnong kadagiti dapo ti urbon a baka ket nasken a labaanna dagiti kawesna. Agtalinaed isuna a narugit agingga iti rabii. Agbalinto daytoy nga agnanayon a linteg kadagiti tattao ti Israel ken dagiti ganggannaet a makipagnanaed kadakuada.
The man who gathers up the ashes of the cow must [also] wash his clothes, and he [also] will be unfit to do any more sacred work until that evening. That is a regulation that will never be changed. It must be obeyed by you Israeli people and by any foreigners who live among you.
11 Siasinoman a mangsagid iti bangkay ti siasinoman a tao ket agbalinto a narugit iti las-ud ti pito nga aldaw.
“All those who touch a corpse will be unacceptable to me for seven days.
12 Nasken a dalusan ti kasta a tao ti bagina iti maikatlo nga aldaw ken iti maikapito nga aldaw. Ket agbalinton isuna a nadalus. Ngem no saanna a dalusan ti bagina iti maikatlo nga aldaw, saanto ngarud isuna a nadalus iti maikapito nga aldaw.
On the third day and on the seventh day [after touching a corpse], in order to become acceptable to me again, [they must have sprinkled on them] some of that water for removing the guilt of their sin. If they do not do that on both of those days, they will continue to be unacceptable to me.
13 Siasinoman a mangsagid iti maysa a natay a tao, ti bangkay ti maysa a tao, ken saanna a dalusan ti bagina—rugitan daytoy a tao ti tabernakulo ni Yahweh. Rumbeng a mapapanaw dayta a tao manipud iti Israel gapu ta saan a naiwarsi kenkuana ti danum a maipaay iti saan a kinasin-aw. Agtalinaed isuna a narugit; agtalinaed kenkuana ti kinarugitna.
All those who touch a corpse, and do not perform in the correct way the ritual to become acceptable to me again, defile Yahweh’s Sacred Tent. They will no longer be permitted to live among the Israeli people. The water to remove the guilt of sin was not sprinkled on them, so they continue to be unacceptable to me.
14 Daytoy ti linteg tunggal adda matay iti uneg ti maysa a tolda. Amin nga umuneg iti tolda ken amin nga addan iti uneg ti tolda ket agbalin a narugit iti las-ud ti pito nga aldaw.
“There is another ritual that must be performed when someone dies inside a tent. All those who were inside that tent when that person died or who enter that tent will be unacceptable to me for seven days.
15 Agbalin a narugit amin a nakalukat a pagkargaan nga awan kalubna.
Any jars that are inside that tent that are not covered are not permitted to be used.
16 Kasta met a ti siasinoman nga adda iti ruar ti tolda a mangsagid iti tao a napapatay iti kampilan, aniaman a bangkay, tulang ti tao, wenno tanem—dayta a tao ket agbalin a narugit iti las-ud ti pito nga aldaw.
If someone who is out in a field touches the corpse of someone who was murdered, or who died from natural causes, or if someone touches a bone from some human or touches a grave, that person will be unacceptable to me for seven days.
17 Aramidenyo daytoy iti narugit a tao: Mangalakayo kadagiti dapo iti naipuor a daton a gapu iti basol ket ilaokyo iti danum nga adda iti maysa a pagkargaan.
“For someone like that to become acceptable to me again, some of the ashes from [the cow] that was burned must be taken and put in a jar. Then some fresh water must be poured over the ashes.
18 Masapul a mangala ti maysa a nadalus a tao iti mula a hisopo, isawsawna daytoy iti danum, sana iwarsi iti tolda, kadagiti amin a pagkargaan nga adda iti uneg ti tolda, kadagiti tattao nga adda sadiay, ken iti tao a nangsagid iti tulang, ti napapatay a tao, ti natay a tao, wenno ti tanem. Iti maikatlo nga aldaw ken ti maikapito nga aldaw, nasken a warsian ti nadalus a tao ti narugit a tao.
Then someone who is still acceptable to me must take a stalk of [a plant named] hyssop and dip it into the water. Then that person must sprinkle some of the water on the tent where that person died, on the things that are in the tent, and on the people who were in the tent. He must also sprinkle some of that water on any person who touched a human bone or who touched a person who died, or who touched a grave.
19 Iti maikapito nga aldaw, nasken a dalusan ti narugit a tao ti bagina. Masapul a labaanna dagiti kawesna ken agdigos iti danum. Agbalinto isuna a nadalus iti karabianna.
On the third day and on the seventh day after that, the person who is acceptable to me must sprinkle some of that water on those who have become unacceptable to me. On the seventh day, the people who are performing that ritual to become acceptable to me again must wash their clothes and bathe. If they do that, on that evening they will become acceptable to me again.
20 Ngem siasinoman nga agtalinaed a narugit, nga agkedked a mangdalus iti bagina—mapapanaw dayta a tao manipud iti kagimongan, gapu ta rinugitanna ti santuario ni Yahweh. Saan a naiwarsi kenkuana ti danum a maipaay iti saan a kinasin-aw; agtalinaed isuna a narugit.
“If those who have become unacceptable to me do not become acceptable to me again by doing this, they will no longer be permitted to live among the Israeli people, because they have defiled my Sacred Tent. They did not sprinkle on themselves the water that removes the guilt of their sins, so they remain unacceptable to me.
21 Daytoyto ti agbalin nga agtultuloy a linteg maipapan kadagitoy a pasamak. Ti tao a mangiwarsi iti danum a maipaay iti saan a kinasin-aw ket nasken a labaanna dagiti kawesna. Ti tao a mangsagid iti danum a maipaay iti saan a kinasin-aw ket agbalin a narugit agingga iti rabii.
That is a law for the Israeli people that will never be changed. Those who sprinkle that water on themselves must then wash their clothes. And anyone who touches that water which removes guilt for sins will remain unacceptable to God until that evening.
22 Aniaman a sagiden ti narugit a tao ket agbalinto a narugit. Ti tao a mangsagid iti dayta ket agbalinto a narugit agingga iti rabii.”
“If someone touches a thing or a person that has become unacceptable to me, that person will remain unacceptable to me until that evening.”
