Leviticus 21
1 LEUM GOD El sapkin nu sel Moses elan fahkang nu sin mwet tol in fwil natul Aaron, ac fahk, “Wangin mwet tol fah sifacna oru elan tia nasnas ke sripen el wi orekma ke mas misa ke pacl sie mwet in sou lal ah misa,
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, Speak to the priests the sons of Aaron, and you shall tell them [that] they shall not defile themselves in their nation for the dead,
2 sayen nina kial, papa tumal, wen se natul, acn se natul, tamulel se lal,
but [they may mourn] for a relative who is very near to them, for a father and mother, and sons and daughters, for a brother,
3 ku tamtael lolap se lal su muta in lohm sel.
and for a virgin sister that is near to one, that is not espoused to a man; for these one shall defile himself.
4 El fah tia akfohkfokyal sifacna ke misa lun mwet su kupasr nu sel ke sripen payuk.
He shall not defile himself suddenly among his people to profane himself.
5 “Wangin mwet tol ac fah resai kutena ip ke sifal, ku kalla sisken alut lal, ku sipik manol in akkalemye lah el asor.
And you shall not shave your head for the dead with a baldness on the top; and they shall not shave their beard, neither shall they make gashes on their flesh.
6 Enenu elan mutal na ac tia aklusrongtenye Inek. El oru kisa ke mwe mongo nu sik, ke ma inge el enenu in mutal.
They shall be holy to their God, and they shall not profane the name of their God; for they offer the sacrifices of the Lord as the gifts of their God, and they shall be holy.
7 Sie mwet tol fah tiana payuk sin sie mutan kosro su eis molin kosro lal, ku sie mutan su tia virgin, ku sie su mukul tumal sisella. Sie mwet tol el mutal.
They shall not take a woman who is a harlot and profaned, or a woman put away from her husband; for he is holy to the Lord his God.
8 Enenu mwet uh in akilen mu mwet tol el sie mwet mutal, mweyen el oru kisa ke mwe mongo nu sik. Nga pa LEUM GOD. Nga mutal ac nga oru mwet luk in mutal.
And you shall hallow him; he offers the gifts of the Lord your God: he shall be holy, for I the Lord that sanctify them [am] holy.
9 Fin acn nutin sie mwet tol el orek kosro in eis moul kac, el akmwekinye papa tumal, na enenu in isisyak el nwe ke el misa.
And if the daughter of a priest should be profaned to go a whoring, she profanes the name of her father: she shall be burnt with fire.
10 “Oil in akmusra okwokyang tari nu fin sifen Mwet Tol Fulat, ac el akmutalyeyuk in nukum nuknuk lun mwet tol. Ke ma inge tia enenu in miraung sifal, ac el tia enenu in seya nuknuk lal in akkalemye lah el asor.
And the priest that is chief among his brethren, the oil having been poured upon the head of the anointed one, and he having been consecrated to put on the garments, shall not take the mitre off his head, and shall not rend his garments:
11 El fah tia som nu yen mano misa oan we — finne papa tumal ku nina kial, el fah tia akkolukyal kac.
neither shall he go in to any dead body, neither shall he defile himself for his father or his mother.
12 Oil in akmusra lun God lal oan facl, ke ma inge el fah tia akfohkfokye Lohm Nuknuk Mutal sik ke el illa liki in som nu ke mas misa. Nga LEUM GOD.
And he shall not go forth out of the sanctuary, and he shall not profane the sanctuary of his God, because the holy anointing oil of God [is] upon him: I [am] the Lord.
13 El fah payuk sin sie virgin,
He shall take for a wife a virgin of his own tribe.
14 ac tia sie katinmas ku sie mutan su mukul tumal sisella, ku sie mutan kosro su eis molin kosro lal. El fah payukna sin sie virgin in sruf lal sifacna.
But a widow, or one that is put away, or profaned, or a harlot, these he shall not take; but he shall take for a wife a virgin of his own people.
15 El fin tia oru ma inge, tulik natul, su fal in mutal, ac fah tia nasnas. Nga LEUM GOD, ac nga srella tari tuh elan Mwet Tol Fulat.”
And he shall not profane his seed among his people: I [am] the Lord that sanctifies him.
16 LEUM GOD El sapkin nu sel Moses, ac fahk,
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
17 “Fahkang nu sel Aaron, wangin sie mwet inmasrlon sou lom su oasr kutena acn sukapas ke mano fah ase nu sik mwe kisa mongo. Oakwuk se inge ac fah ma nwe tok.
Say to Aaron, A man of your tribe throughout your generations, who shall have a blemish on him, shall not draw near to offer the gifts of his God.
18 Wangin sie mwet su sukapas in mano fah orek kisa: tia sie su kun, ku ul, ku musalla mano, ku fihkala;
No man who has a blemish on him shall draw near; a man blind, lame, with his nose disfigured, or his ears cut,
19 tia sie su ulla pao ku nia;
a man who has a broken hand or a broken foot,
20 tia sie su foingyak ku sie su srikac; tia sie su maskin muta ku mas ke kolo; ac tia sie eunuch.
or humpbacked, or blear-eyed, or that has lost his eye-lashes, or a man who has a malignant ulcer, or tetter, or one that has lost a testicle.
21 Wangin mwet in fwil natul Aaron, mwet tol, su oasr acn musalla in mano fah oru kisa mwe mongo nu sik.
Whoever of the seed of Aaron the priest has a blemish on him, shall not draw near to offer sacrifices to your God, because he has a blemish on him; he shall not draw near to offer the gifts of God.
22 Kain mwet se inge ku in kang mwe mongo ma kisakinyuk nu sik, kewana mongo mutal ac mongo arulana mutal,
The gifts of God [are] most holy, and he shall eat of the holy things.
23 tusruktu ke sripen el sukapas in mano, el fah tia kalukyang nu ke lisrlisr mutal, ku tuku apkuran nu ke loang uh. El fah tiana akkolukye ma mutal inge, mweyen nga LEUM GOD, ac nga oru tuh ma inge in mutal.”
Only he shall not approach the veil, and he shall not draw near to the altar, because he has a blemish; and he shall not profane the sanctuary of his God, for I am the Lord that sanctifies them.
24 Pa inge ma Moses el fahk nu sel Aaron, nu sin wen natul Aaron, ac mwet Israel nukewa.
And Moses spoke to Aaron and his sons, and to all the children of Israel.
