1 INkosi yasikhuluma kuMozisi isithi:
The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
2 Tshono ebantwaneni bakoIsrayeli uthi kubo: Owesilisa loba owesifazana, uba ezehlukanisela ukuthembisa isithembiso somNaziri, ukuze azehlukanisele iNkosi,
“Speak to the children of Israel, and tell them: ‘When either man or woman shall make a special vow, the vow of a Nazirite, to separate himself to the LORD,
3 uzazehlukanisa lewayini lokunathwayo okulamandla, anganathi iviniga lewayini, leviniga lokunathwayo okulamandla, anganathi lamhluzi wezithelo zevini, angadli izithelo zevini ezimanzi lezomileyo.
he shall separate himself from wine and strong drink. He shall drink no vinegar of wine, or vinegar of fermented drink, neither shall he drink any juice of grapes, nor eat fresh grapes or dried.
4 Zonke insuku zokuzehlukanisela kwakhe kayikudla okolutho olwenziwe ngevini lewayini, kusukela enhlamvini kusiya emakhasini.
All the days of his separation he shall eat nothing that is made of the grapevine, from the seeds even to the skins.
5 Zonke insuku zesithembiso sokuzehlukanisela kwakhe impuco kayiyikudlula phezu kwekhanda lakhe; kuze kugcwaliseke insuku zokuzehlukanisela kwakhe iNkosi uzakuba ngcwele, ayekele izihluthu zenwele zekhanda lakhe zikhule.
“‘All the days of his vow of separation no razor shall come on his head, until the days are fulfilled in which he separates himself to the LORD. He shall be holy. He shall let the locks of the hair of his head grow long.
6 Zonke insuku azehlukanisele iNkosi ngazo kayikuya esidunjini.
“‘All the days that he separates himself to the LORD he shall not go near a dead body.
7 Kayikuzingcolisa ngoyise, langonina, ngomfowabo, langodadewabo, uba befile, ngoba ukwehlukaniselwa uNkulunkulu wakhe kuphezu kwekhanda lakhe.
He shall not make himself unclean for his father, or for his mother, for his brother, or for his sister, when they die, because his separation to God is on his head.
8 Zonke insuku zokuzehlukanisela kwakhe ungcwele eNkosini.
All the days of his separation he is holy to the LORD.
9 Uba-ke ofayo ejunywa masinyane yikufa phansi kwakhe, usengcolise ikhanda lokuzehlukanisela kwakhe, uzaphuca ikhanda lakhe ngosuku lokuhlanjululwa kwakhe, uzaliphuca ngosuku lwesikhombisa.
“‘If any man dies very suddenly beside him, and he defiles the head of his separation, then he shall shave his head in the day of his cleansing. On the seventh day he shall shave it.
10 Langosuku lwesificaminwembili uzaletha amajuba amabili loba amaphuphu amabili enkwilimba kumpristi emnyango wethente lenhlangano.
On the eighth day he shall bring two turtledoves or two young pigeons to the priest, to the door of the Tent of Meeting.
11 Lompristi uzanikela enye ibe ngumnikelo wesono, lenye ibe ngumnikelo wokutshiswa, amenzele inhlawulo yokuthula, ngoba wonile ngesidumbu. Njalo uzangcwelisa ikhanda lakhe ngalona lolosuku,
The priest shall offer one for a sin offering, and the other for a burnt offering, and make atonement for him, because he sinned by reason of the dead, and shall make his head holy that same day.
12 azehlukanisele iNkosi insuku zokuzehlukanisela kwakhe, alethe iwundlu elilomnyaka owodwa libe ngumnikelo wecala; kodwa insuku zakuqala zizakuwa, ngoba ukuzehlukanisela kwakhe kungcolisiwe.
He shall separate to the LORD the days of his separation, and shall bring a male lamb a year old for a trespass offering; but the former days shall be void, because his separation was defiled.
13 Lalo ngumlayo womNaziri ngosuku lapho insuku zokuzehlukanisela kwakhe sezigcwalisekile. Uzaletha lokhu emnyango wethente lenhlangano,
“‘This is the law of the Nazirite: when the days of his separation are fulfilled, he shall be brought to the door of the Tent of Meeting,
14 anikele umnikelo wakhe eNkosini, iwundlu elilodwa elilomnyaka owodwa elingelasici libe ngumnikelo wokutshiswa, lewundlukazi elilodwa elilomnyaka owodwa elingelasici libe ngumnikelo wesono, lenqama ibenye engelasici ibe yiminikelo yokuthula,
and he shall offer his offering to the LORD: one male lamb a year old without defect for a burnt offering, one ewe lamb a year old without defect for a sin offering, one ram without defect for peace offerings,
15 lesitsha sezinkwa ezingelamvubelo, amaqebelengwana empuphu ecolekileyo ehlanganiswe lamafutha, lezinkwana eziyizipatalala ezingelamvubelo ezinindwe ngamafutha, lomnikelo wazo wokudla leminikelo yazo yokunathwayo.
a basket of unleavened bread, cakes of fine flour mixed with oil, and unleavened wafers anointed with oil with their meal offering and their drink offerings.
16 Njalo umpristi uzakusondeza phambi kweNkosi, anikele umnikelo wakhe wesono lomnikelo wakhe wokutshiswa.
The priest shall present them before the LORD, and shall offer his sin offering and his burnt offering.
17 Lenqama uzayinikela ibe ngumhlatshelo weminikelo yokuthula eNkosini kanye lesitsha sezinkwa ezingelamvubelo; lompristi uzanikela umnikelo wakhe wokudla lomnikelo wakhe wokunathwayo.
He shall offer the ram for a sacrifice of peace offerings to the LORD, with the basket of unleavened bread. The priest shall offer also its meal offering and its drink offering.
18 UmNaziri uzaphuca-ke ikhanda lokuzehlukanisela kwakhe emnyango wethente lenhlangano, athathe inwele zekhanda lokuzehlukanisela kwakhe, azifake emlilweni ongaphansi komhlatshelo weminikelo yokuthula.
The Nazirite shall shave the head of his separation at the door of the Tent of Meeting, take the hair of the head of his separation, and put it on the fire which is under the sacrifice of peace offerings.
19 Lompristi uzathatha umkhono ophekiweyo wenqama, leqebelengwana elilodwa elingelamvubelo esitsheni, lesinkwana esisodwa esiyisipatalala esingelamvubelo, akubeke ezandleni zomNaziri esephucile ukuzehlukanisela kwakhe,
The priest shall take the boiled shoulder of the ram, one unleavened cake out of the basket, and one unleavened wafer, and shall put them on the hands of the Nazirite after he has shaved the head of his separation;
20 umpristi akuzunguze-ke kube ngumnikelo wokuzunguzwa phambi kweNkosi; kungcwele kumpristi, kanye lesifuba esizunguziweyo kanye lomlenze wokuphakanyiswa. Emva kwalokhu umNaziri usenganatha iwayini.
and the priest shall wave them for a wave offering before the LORD. They are holy for the priest, together with the breast that is waved and the thigh that is offered. After that the Nazirite may drink wine.
21 Lo ngumlayo womNaziri othembise umnikelo wakhe wokuzehlukanisela kwakhe eNkosini, ngaphandle kwalokho isandla sakhe singafinyelela kukho; njengesithembiso sakhe asithembisileyo uzakwenza njalo, njengomlayo wobuNaziri bakhe.
“‘This is the law of the Nazirite who vows and of his offering to the LORD for his separation, in addition to that which he is able to afford. According to his vow which he vows, so he must do after the law of his separation.’”
22 INkosi yasikhuluma kuMozisi isithi:
The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
23 Tshono kuAroni lakumadodana akhe uthi: Lizabusisa kanje abantwana bakoIsrayeli, lisithi kubo:
“Speak to Aaron and to his sons, saying, ‘This is how you shall bless the children of Israel.’ You shall tell them,
24 INkosi kayikubusise, ikulondoloze.
‘The LORD bless you, and keep you.
25 INkosi kayikhanyise ubuso bayo kuwe, ibe lomusa kuwe.
The LORD make his face to shine on you, and be gracious to you.
26 INkosi kayiphakamise ubuso bayo kuwe, ikunike ukuthula.
The LORD lift up his face towards you, and give you peace.’
27 Ngokunjalo bazabeka ibizo lami phezu kwabantwana bakoIsrayeli, mina-ke ngizababusisa.
“So they shall put my name on the children of Israel; and I will bless them.”
