Okubala 19
1 Mukama Katonda n’agamba Musa ne Alooni nti,
Then the LORD said to Moses and Aaron,
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 that the LORD has commanded: Instruct the Israelites to bring you an unblemished red heifer that has no defect and has never been placed under a yoke.
3 Ogiwanga Eriyazaali kabona; eneetwalibwanga ebweru w’olusiisira n’ettirwa mu maaso ge.
Give it to Eleazar the priest, and he will have it brought outside the camp and slaughtered in his presence.
4 Eriyazaali anaddiranga ku musaayi gwayo n’olunwe lwe n’agumansira okwolekera obwenyi bwa Weema ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu emirundi musanvu.
Eleazar the priest is to take some of its blood on his finger and sprinkle it seven times toward the front of the Tent of Meeting.
5 Ente eyo eneeyokerwanga mu maaso ge; ne bookya eddiba lyayo, n’ennyama yaayo, n’omusaayi gwayo n’obusa bwayo.
Then the heifer must be burned in his sight. Its hide, its flesh, and its blood are to be burned, along with its dung.
6 Kabona anaddiranga omuti omwerezi, n’ezobu n’olugoye olumyufu n’abisuula wakati mu nte eyokebwa.
The priest is to take cedar wood, hyssop, and scarlet wool and throw them onto the burning 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 must wash his clothes and bathe his body in water; after that he may enter the camp, but he will be ceremonially unclean until evening.
8 N’omusajja anaayokyanga ente eyo, kinaamusaaniranga okwoza engoye ze n’okunaaba omubiri gwe n’amazzi, era naye anaabanga atali mulongoofu okutuusa akawungeezi.
The one who burned the heifer must also wash his clothes and bathe his body in water, and he too will be ceremonially unclean until 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.
Then a man who is ceremonially clean is to gather up the ashes of the heifer and store them in a ceremonially clean place outside the camp. They must be kept by the congregation of Israel for preparing the water of purification; this is for purification from sin.
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.
The man who has gathered up the ashes of the heifer must also wash his clothes, and he will be ceremonially unclean until evening. This is a permanent statute for the Israelites and for the foreigner residing among them.
11 “Buli anaakwatanga ku mulambo ogw’omuntu yenna, anaabanga atali mulongoofu okumala ennaku musanvu.
Whoever touches any dead body will be unclean for 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 must purify himself with the water on the third day and on the seventh day; then he will be clean. But if he does not purify himself on the third and seventh days, he will 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.
Anyone who touches a human corpse and fails to purify himself defiles the tabernacle of the LORD. That person must be cut off from Israel. He remains unclean, because the water of purification has not been sprinkled on him, and his uncleanness is still 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 person dies in a tent: Everyone who enters the tent and everyone already in the tent will be unclean for seven days,
15 Buli kintu ekiterekwamu ekyasaamiridde ekitaliiko kisaanikira tekiibenga kirongoofu.
and any open container without a lid fastened 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.
Anyone in the open field who touches someone who has been killed by the sword or has died of natural causes, or anyone who touches a human bone or a grave, will be unclean for 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 purification of the unclean person, take some of the ashes of the burnt sin offering, put them in a jar, and pour fresh water over them.
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.
Then a man who is ceremonially clean is to take some hyssop, dip it in the water, and sprinkle the tent, all the furnishings, and the people who were there. He is also to sprinkle the one who touched a bone, a grave, or a person who has died or been slain.
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 man who is ceremonially clean is to sprinkle the unclean person on the third day and on the seventh day. After he purifies the unclean person on the seventh day, the one being cleansed must wash his clothes and bathe in water, and that evening he will be clean.
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 if a person who is unclean does not purify himself, he will be cut off from the assembly, because he has defiled the sanctuary of the LORD. The water of purification 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.
This is a permanent statute for the people: The one who sprinkles the water of purification must wash his clothes, and whoever touches the water of purification will be unclean until evening.
22 Buli kintu atali mulongoofu ky’akwatako, kinaabanga ekitali kirongoofu; na buli anaakikwatangako anaabanga atali mulongoofu okutuusa akawungeezi.”
Anything the unclean person touches will become unclean, and anyone who touches it will be unclean until evening.”
