Nomery 19

1 Ary Jehovah niteny tamin’ i Mosesy sy Arona ka nanao hoe:

And Yahweh spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying:

2 Izao no lalàna hotandremana, izay efa nandidian’ i Jehovah: Lazao amin’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely mba hitondrany vantotr’ ombivavy mena, izay tsy misy kilema na tsiny sady tsy mbola nasiana zioga.

This, is the statute of the law, which Yahweh hath commanded, saying, —Speak unto the sons of Israel—That they bring unto thee a red heifer, without defect wherein is no blemish, and whereupon hath come no yoke.

3 Ary omeo ho an’ i Eleazara mpisorona iny, dia hasaina ho entina eny ivelan’ ny toby ka hovonoina eo anatrehany.

Then shall ye give her unto Eleazar the priest, and he shall take her forth unto the outside of the camp, and she shall be slain before him;

4 Dia hanalan’ i Eleazara mpisorona amin’ ny fanondrony ny ràny ka hafafiny impito manandrify ny trano-lay fihaonana.

and Eleazar the priest shall take of her blood with his finger, —and shall sprinkle towards the front of the tent of meeting: of her blood, seven times;

5 Dia hodorana eo imasony ilay vantotr’ ombivavy: ny hodiny sy ny henany ary ny ràny mbamin’ ny tain-drorohany dia hodorana avokoa.

and the heifer shall be burned up before his eyes, —her skin, and her flesh, and her blood, with her dung shall be burned up.

6 Ary ny mpisorona dia haka hazo sedera sy hysopa ary jaky ka hanipy azy eo afovoan’ ny afo andoroana ny vantotr’ ombivavy.

Then shall the priest take cedar-wood and hyssop and crimson, —and cast into the midst of the burning up of the heifer.

7 Dia hosasan’ ny mpisorona ny fitafiany, ary handro amin’ ny rano izy, ary rehefa afaka izany, dia hankeo amin’ ny toby izy; ary haloto mandra-paharivan’ ny andro ny mpisorona.

And the priest shall wash his clothes and bathe his flesh in water, and afterwards come into the camp, —but the priest shall be unclean until the evening,

8 Ary izay mandoro ilay ombivavy dia hanasa ny fitafiany sady handro amin’ ny rano, ary haloto mandra-paharivan’ ny andro.

And, he that burneth her, shall wash his clothes in water, and bathe his flesh in water, —and be unclean until the evening,

9 Dia hangonin’ izay lehilahy madio anankiray ny lavenon’ ilay vantotr’ ombivavy ka hapetrany eo ivelan’ ny toby eo amin’ izay fitoerana madio anankiray, dia hotehirizina ho an’ ny fiangonan’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely izany ho rano fanadiovana: fanatitra noho ny ota izany.

Then shall a man that is clean gather up the ashes of the heifer, and put them by, outside the camp, in a clean place, —so shall they be for the assembly of the sons of Israel to keep for water of separation it is a taking away of sin.

10 Ary ilay nanangona ny lavenon’ ny vantotr’ ombivavy dia hanasa ny fitafiany, ary haloto mandra-paharivan’ ny andro; ary ho lalàna mandrakizay ho an’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely sy ny vahiny eo aminy izany.

Then shall he that gathered up the ashes wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening, —so shall it be for the sons of Israel and for the sojourner that sojourneth in your midst by a statute age-abiding.

11 Izay mikasika fatin’ olona dia haloto hafitoana.

He that toucheth the dead, even any human person, shall be unclean seven days.

12 Hanadio ny tenany amin’ izany rano izany izy amin’ ny andro fahatelo, ary amin’ ny andro fahafito dia hadio izy; fa raha tsy manadio ny tenany amin’ ny andro fahatelo kosa izy, dia tsy hadio amin’ ny andro fahafito.

He, shall cleanse himself from sin therewith on the third day, then on the seventh day, shall he be clean, —but if he cleanse not himself from sin on the third day, then on the seventh day, shall he not be clean,

13 Izay rehetra mikasika fatin’ olona ka tsy manadio ny tenany dia mandoto ny tabernakelin’ i Jehovah ka hofongorana tsy ho amin’ ny Isiraely; satria tsy nofafazana ny rano fanadiovana izy, dia haloto: ny fahalotoany mbola eo aminy ihany.

Whosoever toucheth the dead the person of the human being that dieth and doth not cleanse himself from sin, the habitation of Yahweh, hath he made unclean; that person therefore shall be cut off out of Israel, —because, the water of separation, was not dashed upon him, unclean, shall he be, his uncleanness is yet upon him.

14 Izao no lalàna, raha misy olona maty ao an-day: Izay rehetra miditra ao an-day sy izay rehetra ao anatin’ ny lay dia haloto hafitoana.

This, is the law—When, a human being, shall die in a tent, every one who goeth into the tent and every one who is in the tent shall be unclean seven days.

15 Ary ny fanaka rehetra misokatra izay tsy misy rakotra voafehy aminy, dia haloto.

And, in the case of every open vessel, on which no cover is fastened, unclean, it is.

16 Ary izay rehetra mikasika izay matin-tsabatra any an-tsaha, na fatin’ olona, na taolan’ olona, na fasana, dia haloto hafitoana.

And, whosoever toucheth on the face of the field, one slain with a sword, or one who hath died, or a human bone or a grave, shall be unclean seven days.

17 Dia hangalana ho an’ ny maloto ny lavenon’ ilay nodorana teo ho fanatitra noho ny ota, ary hasiany rano nalaina tamin’ ny rano mandeha izany eo am-bilia.

And they shall take, for him that is unclean, of the ashes of the burning of the sin-bearer, —and living water shall be put thereon in a vessel,

18 Dia haka hysopa ny lehilahy madio anankiray ka hanoboka azy eo amin’ ny rano, dia hafafiny amin’ ny lay mbamin’ ny fanaka rehetra sy ny olona izay eo ary ilay nikasika ny taolana, na ny novonoina, na ny matin’ aretina, na ny fasana.

Then shall a man that is clean take hyssop, and dip in the water, and sprinkle upon the tent, and upon all the vessels, and upon the persons who were there, —and upon him that touched the bone or him who had been slain, or him who had died of himself or the grave;

19 Ary ny maloto dia hofafazan’ ilay olona madio amin’ ny andro fahatelo sy ny fahafito; dia hanadio ny tenany amin’ ny andro fahafito izy ka hanasa ny fitafiany sy handro amin’ ny rano, dia hadio rehefa hariva.

and the clean person shall sprinkle upon the unclean, on the third day, and on the seventh day, —so shall he cleanse himself from sin, on the seventh day, and shall wash his clothes, and bathe in water and be clean in the evening.

20 Fa ny olona izay naloto ka tsy nanadio ny tenany dia hofongorana tsy ho amin’ ny fiangonana, satria nandoto ny fitoera-masin’ i Jehovah izy; ny rano fanadiovana tsy nafafy taminy: maloto izy.

But in the case of the man who shall be unclean and shall not cleanse himself from sin, that person shall be cut off, out of the midst of the convocation, —for, the sanctuary of Yahweh, hath he made unclean, the water of separation, hath not been dashed upon him unclean, he is.

21 Dia ho lalàna mandrakizay aminy izany, fa izay mamafy ny rano fanadiovana dia hanasa ny fitafiany; ary izay mikasika ny rano fanadiovana dia haloto mandra-paharivan’ ny andro.

So shall it be unto them for statute age-abiding, —and, he that sprinkleth the water of separation, shall wash his clothes, and he that toucheth the water of separation shall be unclean until the evening;

22 Ary ny zavatra rehetra izay voakasiky ny maloto dia haloto; ary ny olona izay mikasika azy dia haloto mandra-paharivan’ ny andro.

and, whatsoever the unclean person toucheth, shall be unclean, —and the person who toucheth it shall be unclean until the evening.
