1 Mukama Katonda n’agamba Musa ne Alooni nti,
The LORD spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
2 “Kino kye kiragiro eky’etteeka Mukama ky’alagidde: Gamba abaana ba Isirayiri bakuleetere ente enduusi eya lukunyu eteriiko kamogo wadde ekikyamu kyonna, era nga tesibibwangamu kikoligo.
“This is the statute of the law which the LORD has commanded. Tell the children of Israel to bring you a red heifer without spot, in which is no defect, and which was never yoked.
3 Ogiwanga Eriyazaali kabona; eneetwalibwanga ebweru w’olusiisira n’ettirwa mu maaso ge.
You shall give her to Eleazar the priest, and he shall bring her outside of the camp, and one shall kill her before his face.
4 Eriyazaali anaddiranga ku musaayi gwayo n’olunwe lwe n’agumansira okwolekera obwenyi bwa Weema ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu emirundi musanvu.
Eleazar the priest shall take some of her blood with his finger, and sprinkle her blood toward the front of the Tent of Meeting seven times.
5 Ente eyo eneeyokerwanga mu maaso ge; ne bookya eddiba lyayo, n’ennyama yaayo, n’omusaayi gwayo n’obusa bwayo.
One shall burn the heifer in his sight; her skin, and her meat, and her blood, with her dung, shall he burn.
6 Kabona anaddiranga omuti omwerezi, n’ezobu n’olugoye olumyufu n’abisuula wakati mu nte eyokebwa.
The priest shall take cedar wood, hyssop, and scarlet, and cast it into the middle of the burning of the heifer.
7 Ebyo nga biwedde kabona anaayozanga ebyambalo bye n’anaaba omubiri gwe n’amazzi. Anaddangayo mu lusiisira, naye anaabanga atali mulongoofu okutuusa akawungeezi.
Then the priest shall wash his clothes, and he shall bathe his flesh in water, and afterward he shall come into the camp, and the priest shall be unclean until the evening.
8 N’omusajja anaayokyanga ente eyo, kinaamusaaniranga okwoza engoye ze n’okunaaba omubiri gwe n’amazzi, era naye anaabanga atali mulongoofu okutuusa akawungeezi.
He who burns her shall wash his clothes in water, and bathe his flesh in water, and shall be unclean until the evening.
9 “Omusajja omulongoofu anaayoolanga evvu ly’ente, anaaliteekanga mu kifo ekirongoofu ebweru w’olusiisira. Linaalabirirwanga abaana ba Isirayiri ne balikozesanga mu mazzi ag’okwerongoosa; kwe kulongoosebwa okw’okuggibwako ekibi.
“A man who is clean shall gather up the ashes of the heifer, and lay them up outside of the camp in a clean place; and it shall be kept for the congregation of the children of Israel for use in water for cleansing impurity. It is a sin offering.
10 Omuntu oyo anaayoolanga evvu ly’ente, kinaamusaaniranga okwoza engoye ze, era naye taabenga mulongoofu okutuusa akawungeezi. Eryo linaabanga etteeka ery’emirembe n’emirembe eri abaana ba Isirayiri n’eri bannamawanga abanaatuulanga mu bo.
He who gathers the ashes of the heifer shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening. It shall be to the children of Israel, and to the stranger who lives as a foreigner among them, for a statute forever.
11 “Buli anaakwatanga ku mulambo ogw’omuntu yenna, anaabanga atali mulongoofu okumala ennaku musanvu.
“He who touches the dead body of any man shall be unclean seven days.
12 Kinaamusaaniranga okwerongoosa n’amazzi ku lunaku olwokusatu ne ku lunaku olw’omusanvu, olwo n’alyoka abeera omulongoofu. Naye bw’ateerongoosenga ku lunaku olwokusatu ne ku lunaku olw’omusanvu, taabenga mulongoofu.
He shall purify himself with water on the third day, and on the seventh day he shall be clean; but if he does not purify himself the third day, then the seventh day he shall not be clean.
13 Buli anaakwatanga ku mulambo gw’omuntu n’ateelongoosa, anaabanga ayonoonye ennyumba ya Mukama Katonda. Omuntu oyo anaagobwanga mu Isirayiri. Kubanga teyamansirwako mazzi agalongoosa, anaabeeranga atali mulongoofu; obutali bulongoofu bwe bunaamusigalangako.
Whoever touches a dead person, the body of a man who has died, and does not purify himself, defiles the LORD’s tabernacle; and that soul shall be cut off from Israel; because the water for impurity was not sprinkled on him, he shall be unclean. His uncleanness is yet on him.
14 “Lino lye tteeka erikwata ku muntu anaafiiranga mu weema: Buli anaayingiranga mu weema omwo n’oyo anaabanga agirimu banaabanga abatali balongoofu okumala ennaku musanvu.
“This is the law when a man dies in a tent: everyone who comes into the tent, and everyone who is in the tent, shall be unclean seven days.
15 Buli kintu ekiterekwamu ekyasaamiridde ekitaliiko kisaanikira tekiibenga kirongoofu.
Every open vessel, which has no covering bound on it, is unclean.
16 “Omuntu yenna ng’abadde ali ebweru mu kyererezi, n’akwata ku muntu attiddwa n’ekitala oba olumbe gwe lusse, oba omuntu yenna anaakwatanga ku ggumba ly’omuntu oba ku malaalo, anaabeeranga atali mulongoofu okumala ennaku musanvu.
“Whoever in the open field touches one who is slain with a sword, or a dead body, or a bone of a man, or a grave, shall be unclean seven days.
17 “Nga mukola ku muntu atali mulongoofu, munaatoolanga ku vvu ery’oku kiweebwayo olw’ekibi ne muliteeka mu bbakuli ne muliyiwako amazzi amalungi.
“For the unclean, they shall take of the ashes of the burning of the sin offering; and running water shall be poured on them in a vessel.
18 Omusajja omulongoofu anaddiranga ezobu n’aginnyika mu mazzi, n’agamansira ku weema ne ku bintu byamu byonna ne ku bantu bonna abanaabanga balimu. Era anaamansiranga ne ku muntu anaabanga akutte ku ggumba ery’omuntu, ne ku malaalo, ne ku muntu attiddwa, ne ku oyo afudde olumbe.
A clean person shall take hyssop, dip it in the water, and sprinkle it on the tent, on all the vessels, on the persons who were there, and on him who touched the bone, or the slain, or the dead, or the grave.
19 Omusajja omulongoofu anaamansiranga ku oyo atali mulongoofu ku lunaku olwokusatu ne ku lw’omusanvu, ne ku lunaku olw’omusanvu anaabanga amulongoosezza. Omuntu oyo alongoosebwa anaayozanga engoye ze mu mazzi, n’okunaaba n’anaaba yenna; era akawungeezi ako anaabeeranga mulongoofu.
The clean person shall sprinkle on the unclean on the third day, and on the seventh day. On the seventh day, he shall purify him. He shall wash his clothes and bathe himself in water, and shall be clean at evening.
20 “Naye omuntu atali mulongoofu bw’ateerongoosenga anaagobwanga mu banne bonna, n’asalibwa ku kibiina kyabwe, kubanga anaabeeranga ayonoonye awatukuvu wa Mukama Katonda. Amazzi agalongoosa nga tegamumansiddwako, taabeerenga mulongoofu.
But the man who shall be unclean, and shall not purify himself, that soul shall be cut off from among the assembly, because he has defiled the sanctuary of the LORD. The water for impurity has not been sprinkled on him. He is unclean.
21 Eryo linaabanga tteeka lyabwe lya mirembe gyonna. Oyo anaamansiranga amazzi ag’obulongoofu, naye anaayozanga engoye ze, n’oyo anaakwatanga ku mazzi ag’okulongoosa anaabeeranga atali mulongoofu okutuusa akawungeezi.
It shall be a perpetual statute to them. He who sprinkles the water for impurity shall wash his clothes, and he who touches the water for impurity shall be unclean until evening.
22 Buli kintu atali mulongoofu ky’akwatako, kinaabanga ekitali kirongoofu; na buli anaakikwatangako anaabanga atali mulongoofu okutuusa akawungeezi.”
“Whatever the unclean person touches shall be unclean; and the soul that touches it shall be unclean until evening.”
