Oekyuk 18

1 LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Aaron, “Kom, ac wen nutum ac mwet Levi, fah kaiyuk ke kutena tafongla ma sikyak ke pacl kowos orekma in Lohm Nuknuk Mutal sik; tusruktu kom ac wen nutum mukena pa ac kaiyuk ke kutena tafongla ma orek ke kunokon lun mwet tol.

And YHWH says to Aaron, “You, and your sons, and the house of your father with you, bear the iniquity of the sanctuary; and you and your sons with you bear the iniquity of your priesthood;

2 Use mwet in sou lom ke sruf lun Levi in wi kom orekma ac kasrekom pacl kom, ac wen nutum, orekma in Lohm Nuknuk Mutal.

and also your brothers, the tribe of Levi, the tribe of your father, bring near with you, and they are joined to you, and serve you, even you and your sons with you, before the Tent of the Testimony.

3 Elos enenu in akfalye ma kunalos nu sum ac oayapa fosrngakin orekma kunalos ke Lohm Nuknuk Mutal uh, tusruktu elos in tia kahl kutena ma akmutalyeyukla in Acn Mutal ku ke loang uh. Elos fin kahlya, komtal kewa fah anwuki.

And they have kept your charge, and the charge of all the tent; only, they do not come near to the vessels of the holy place and to the altar, and they do not die, either they or you;

4 Elos in wi kom orekma ac akfalye ma kunalos nukewa in Lohm Nuknuk Mutal, tusruktu wangin mwet su tia fal in wi orekma ke ma inge fah wi kom orekma.

and they have been joined to you and have kept the charge of the Tent of Meeting for all the service of the tent; and a stranger does not come near to you;

5 Kom ac wen nutum mukena fah akfalye orekma ke Acn Mutal ac ke loang uh, tuh kasrkusrak luk fah tia sifilpa tayak lain mwet Israel.

and you have kept the charge of the holy place and the charge of the altar, and there is no more wrath against the sons of Israel.

6 Nga pa sulela mwet Levi wiowos liki inmasrlon mwet Israel tuh in oana sie mwe kite nu sum. Akmutalyeyukla elos nu sik, tuh elos in ku in oru orekma kunalos in Lohm Nuknuk Mutal.

And I, behold, have taken your brothers the Levites from the midst of the sons of Israel; they are a gift given to you by YHWH to do the service of the Tent of Meeting;

7 Tusruktu kom ac wen nutum mukena fah akfalye kunokon nukewa lun mwet tol su ma nu ke loang uh ac nu ke ma su oan in Acn Mutal Na Mutal. Ma inge ma kunowos, mweyen nga sot nu suwos wal lun mwet tol oana sie mwe kite. Kutena mwet su tia fal in wi orekma ke ma inge su kalukyang apkuran nu ke ma mutal uh ac fah anwuki.”

and you and your sons with you keep your priesthood for everything of the altar and within the veil, and you have served; I make your priesthood a gift [for] service; and the stranger who is coming near is put to death.”

8 LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Aaron, “Esam lah nga sot nu sum mwe sang mutal nukewa ma ituku nu sik ac tia isisyak. Nga sot ma inge nu sum ac nu sin fwilin tulik nutum tuh in ip lowos nwe tok.

And YHWH speaks to Aaron: “And I, behold, have given to you the charge of My raised-offerings, of all the hallowed things of the sons of Israel—I have given them to you and to your sons for the anointing, by a continuous statute.

9 Pa inge ip lom ke mwe sang su arulana mutal su tia firriyuk fin loang uh: mwe kisa wheat, mwe kisa ke ma koluk, ac mwe kisa in akfalye ma koluk lukma. Ma nukewa ma ituku nu sik tuh in sie kisa mutal, ma lom ac lun wen nutum.

This is yours from the most holy things, from the fire: all their offering, of all their present, and of all their sin-offering, and of all their guilt-offering, which they give back to Me, is most holy to you and to your sons;

10 Kowos fah kang ma inge in sie acn mutal, ac mukul mukena fah ku in mongo kac. Kowos in eis mu ma inge ma na mutal.

you eat it among the most holy things; every male eats it; it is holy to you.

11 “Sayen ma inge, kutena mwe sang mutal su mwet Israel elos use nu sik ac fah ma lom. Nga sot ma inge nu sum, ac nu sin wen ac acn nutum tuh in ma lowos nwe tok. Mwet nukewa in sou lom su aknasnasyeyukla, elos ku in mongo kac.

And this [is] yours: the raised-offering of their gift, with all the wave-offerings of the sons of Israel; I have given them to you, and to your sons, and to your daughters with you, by a continuous statute; every clean one in your house eats it;

12 “Nga sot nu sum ma su wo emeet ke fahko se meet ma mwet Israel elos use nu sik ke kais sie yac: oil in olive, wain, ac wheat.

all the best of the oil, and all the best of the new wine, and wheat—their first-[fruits] which they give to YHWH—I have given them to you.

13 Ma inge nukewa ma lom. Mwet nukewa in sou lom su aknasnasyeyukla ku in mongo kac.

The first-fruits of all that [is] in their land, which they bring to YHWH, are yours; every clean one in your house eats it;

14 “Ma nukewa in Israel ma kisakinyukme na pwaye nu sik ma lom.

every devoted thing in Israel is yours;

15 “Wounse ke tulik ac kosro nukewa ma mwet Israel ase nu sik, ma nutum. Tusruktu kom fah eis molin sifil molela ke tulik wounse nukewa, ac oayapa eis molin sifil molela ke wounse ke kosro nukewa ma tia nasnas.

everyone opening a womb of all flesh which they bring near to YHWH, among man and among beast, is yours; only, you certainly ransom the firstborn of man, and you ransom the firstling of the unclean beast.

16 Tulik uh enenu in sifil moliyukla ke elos sun malem sie matwa, ke lupan moul se ma oasr ke ipin silver limekosr, fal nu ke lupa oakwuki tari.

And their ransomed ones from a son of a month, you ransom with your valuation [for] five shekels of silver, by the shekel of the holy place; it [is] twenty gerahs.

17 Tusruktu wounsien cow, sheep, ac nani uh ac fah tia sifil moliyukla; ma inge ma na luk, ma in kisakinyuk. Fwela loang uh ke srahn ma inge ac esukak kiris kac tuh in sie mwe kisa mongo, sie foul su akinsewowoyeyu.

Only, the firstling of a cow, or the firstling of a sheep, or the firstling of a goat, you do not ransom, they [are] holy: you sprinkle their blood on the altar, and you make incense of their fat [as] a fire-offering of refreshing fragrance to YHWH;

18 Ikwa ke ma inge ma nom, oapana iwa ac nia layen layot ke mwe kisa sriyukla.

and their flesh is yours, as the breast of the wave-offering and as the right leg are yours.

19 “Mwe sang mutal nukewa su mwet Israel use nu sik, nga sot nu sum ac nu sin wen ac acn nutum ke pacl nukewa fahsru uh. Sie wuleang na kawil pa nga orala inge nu sum ac nu sin fwilin tulik nutum.”

All the raised-offerings of the holy things, which the sons of Israel lift up to YHWH, I have given to you, and to your sons, and to your daughters with you, by a continuous statute—a covenant of salt; it [is] continuous before YHWH to you and to your seed with you.”

20 LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Aaron, “Ac fah wangin acn kom fah usrui, oayapa ac fah wangin ip ke acn lun Israel fah itukot lom. Nga, LEUM GOD, ac fah mwe usru lom ac ip lom.”

And YHWH says to Aaron, “You do not inherit in their land, and you do not have a portion in their midst: I [am] your portion and your inheritance in the midst of the sons of Israel;

21 LEUM GOD El fahk, “Nga sang nu sin mwet Levi sie tafu singoul nukewa ma mwet Israel use nu sik. Ma inge ma in moli orekma lalos ke elos karinganang Lohm Nuknuk Mutal sik.

and to the sons of Levi, behold, have given all the tenth in Israel for inheritance in exchange for their service which they are serving—the service of the Tent of Meeting.

22 Mwet Israel saya fah tia sifilpa kalukyang nu ke Lohm Nuknuk Mutal, mweyen elos fin oru, ma inge ac sang mwatalos in misa.

And the sons of Israel no longer come near to the Tent of Meeting, to bear sin, to die,

23 Inge fahla, mwet Levi mukena ac fah karingin Lohm Nuknuk Mutal ac oru kunokon nukewa nu kac. Sie oakwuk kawil pa inge, su ac ma pac nu sin fwilin tulik nutuwos. Ac fah wangin acn itukyang nu sin mwet Levi in Israel,

and the Levites have done the service of the Tent of Meeting, and they bear their iniquity; [it is] a continuous statute throughout your generations that they have no inheritance in the midst of the sons of Israel;

24 mweyen nga sang nu selos sie tafu ngoul ke mwe sang sriyukla ma mwet Israel elos use nu sik. Ma inge nga sang tuh in ma lun mwet Levi. Pa ingan sripa se oru nga fahk nu sin mwet Levi mu ac fah wangin acn itukyang nu selos in Israel.”

but the tithe of the sons of Israel which they lift up to YHWH, a raised-offering, I have given to the Levites for inheritance; therefore I have said of them, They have no inheritance in the midst of the sons of Israel.”

25 LEUM GOD El sapkin nu sel Moses

And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,

26 in fahk nu sin mwet Levi: “Ke kowos eis sin mwet Israel tafu ngoul lalos ma LEUM GOD El asot nu suwos tuh in ma lowos, kowos fah sang sie tafu singoul kac tuh in sie mwe sang sriyukla nu sin LEUM GOD.

“And you speak to the Levites, and you have said to them: When you take the tithe from the sons of Israel which I have given to you from them for your inheritance, then you have lifted up the raised-offering of YHWH from it, a tithe of the tithe;

27 Mwe sang sriyukla se inge ac fah oaoala mu oana mwe kisa ma mwet ima uh oru ke wheat sasu ac wain sasu.

and your raised-offering has been reckoned to you as grain from the threshing-floor and as the fullness from the wine-vat;

28 In ouiya se inge kowos wi pac sang mwe sang sriyukla se lun LEUM GOD inge liki sie tafu singoul nukewa su kowos eis sin mwet Israel. Kowos fah sang mwe sang sriyukla inge lun LEUM GOD nu sel Aaron mwet tol.

so you lift up—you also—the raised-offering of YHWH from all your tithes which you receive from the sons of Israel; and you have given the raised-offering of YHWH from it to Aaron the priest;

29 Sang ma wo oemeet ke ma kowos eis uh.

out of all your gifts you lift up every raised-offering of YHWH, out of all its fat—its hallowed part—out of it.

30 Tukun kowos use ip ma wo oemeet kac, kowos ku in orekmakin ma lula an, oana ke mwet ima uh ac sruokya ma lula tukun el oru mwe sang lal uh.

And you have said to them: In your lifting up its fat out of it, then it has been reckoned to the Levites as increase of a threshing-floor and as increase of a wine-vat;

31 Oana sie acn ma kowos, ac sou lowos uh, ku in kang ma lula inge we, mweyen ma inge molin orekma lowos ke kulansap lowos in Lohm Nuknuk Mutal.

and you have eaten it in every place, you and your households, for it [is] your hire in exchange for your service in the Tent of Meeting;

32 Kowos fin akfalye in sang ma wo emeet kac uh nu sin LEUM GOD, na ac fah wangin mwatuwos kowos fin kang ma lula an. Tusruktu taranna kowos in tia akkupatolye mwe sang mutal lun mwet Israel ke kowos kang kutena sin mwe sang inge meet liki itukyang ip wowo kac uh. Kowos fin oru, kowos ac fah anwuki.”

and you bear no sin for it in your lifting up its fat out of it, but you do not defile the holy things of the sons of Israel, and you do not die.”
