Числа 19
1 И рече Господь к Моисею и Аарону, глаголя:
Yahweh said to Aaron and Moses/me,
2 се, расположение закона, елика заповеда Господь, глаголя: глаголи сыном Израилевым, и да приведут к тебе юницу рыжу непорочну, яже не имать на себе порока, и на нюже не бе возложено иго:
“I am now giving to you another regulation. Tell the Israeli people to bring to you one reddish-brown cow that has no defects. It must be an animal that (has never been/no one has ever) used for plowing ground.
3 и даси ю ко Елеазару жерцу: и да изведут ю вне полка на место чисто, и да заколют ю пред ним:
Give it to Eleazar, the priest. He must take it outside the camp and slaughter it [and drain the blood in a basin].
4 и да возмет Елеазар от крове ея и да покропит спреди скинии свидения от крове ея седмижды:
He must dip one of his fingers in the blood and sprinkle some of it seven times [on the ground] near the Sacred Tent.
5 и да сожгут ю пред ним, и кожу ея и мяса ея и кровь ея с мотылы ея да сожгут:
Then, while Eleazar watches, the cow must be burned completely—its hide, its meat, [the rest of] its blood, and even its dung.
6 и да возмет жрец древо кедрово, и иссоп, и соскание червленое, и да вложат в средину сожжения юницы:
Eliezer then must take a stick of cedar wood, a stalk of [a plant named] hyssop, and some scarlet/red yarn, and throw them into the fire where the cow is burning.
7 и да измыет ризы своя жрец и да омыет тело свое водою, и потом да внидет в полк, и нечист будет жрец до вечера:
“Then the priest must wash his clothes and bathe. After doing that, he may return to the camp. But he will be unfit for doing any sacred work until that evening.
8 и иже сожигает ю, да исперет ризы своя и да омыет тело свое водою, и нечист будет до вечера:
The man who burns the cow must also wash his clothes and bathe, and he will also be unacceptable to me until that evening.
9 и да соберет чистый человек пепел юницы и да изнесет вне полка на место чисто, и да будет сонму сынов Израилевых в сохранение: вода окропления очищение есть:
“Then someone who has not become unacceptable to me must gather up the ashes of the cow and put them in a (sacred place/place that is acceptable to me) outside the camp. The ashes must be kept there for the people of Israel to [use when they] mix it with water for the ritual to remove the guilt of sin.
10 и собираяй пепел юницы да исперет ризы своя, и нечист будет до вечера: и да будет сыном Израилевым и пришелцем прилежащым посреде вас законно вечно.
The man who gathers up the ashes of the cow must [also] wash his clothes, and he [also] will be unfit to do any more sacred work until that evening. That is a regulation that will never be changed. It must be obeyed by you Israeli people and by any foreigners who live among you.
11 Прикасаяйся мертвому всякия души человечи нечист будет седмь дний:
“All those who touch a corpse will be unacceptable to me for seven days.
12 сей да очистится (сею водою) в день третий и в день седмый, и чист будет: аще же не очистится ею в день третий и в день седмый, нечист будет.
On the third day and on the seventh day [after touching a corpse], in order to become acceptable to me again, [they must have sprinkled on them] some of that water for removing the guilt of their sin. If they do not do that on both of those days, they will continue to be unacceptable to me.
13 Всяк прикасаяйся мертвому от всякия души человечи, аще умрет, и не очистится, скинию Господню оскверни: потребится душа та от Израиля, яко вода окропления не воскропися нань, нечист есть, еще нечистота его на нем есть.
All those who touch a corpse, and do not perform in the correct way the ritual to become acceptable to me again, defile Yahweh’s Sacred Tent. They will no longer be permitted to live among the Israeli people. The water to remove the guilt of sin was not sprinkled on them, so they continue to be unacceptable to me.
14 И сей закон: человек аще умрет в дому, всяк входяй в дом, и елика суть в дому, нечиста будут седмь дний.
“There is another ritual that must be performed when someone dies inside a tent. All those who were inside that tent when that person died or who enter that tent will be unacceptable to me for seven days.
15 И всяк сосуд непокровен, и елики обвязанием не обвязаны, нечисти суть.
Any jars that are inside that tent that are not covered are not permitted to be used.
16 И всяк иже аще прикоснется на поли язвенному, или мертвому, или кости человечи, или гробу, седмь дний нечист будет:
If someone who is out in a field touches the corpse of someone who was murdered, or who died from natural causes, or if someone touches a bone from some human or touches a grave, that person will be unacceptable to me for seven days.
17 и да возмут нечистому от пепела сожженнаго очищения, и да возлиют нань воду живу в сосуд:
“For someone like that to become acceptable to me again, some of the ashes from [the cow] that was burned must be taken and put in a jar. Then some fresh water must be poured over the ashes.
18 и да возмет иссоп и омочит в воду муж чист, и да воскропит на дом и на сосуды и на душы, елики суть тамо, и на коснувшася кости человечей, или язвенному, или мертвечине, или гробу:
Then someone who is still acceptable to me must take a stalk of [a plant named] hyssop and dip it into the water. Then that person must sprinkle some of the water on the tent where that person died, on the things that are in the tent, and on the people who were in the tent. He must also sprinkle some of that water on any person who touched a human bone or who touched a person who died, or who touched a grave.
19 и да воскропит чистый на нечистаго в день третий и в день седмый, и очистится седмаго дне: и да исперет ризы своя и да омыет тело свое водою, и нечист будет до вечера.
On the third day and on the seventh day after that, the person who is acceptable to me must sprinkle some of that water on those who have become unacceptable to me. On the seventh day, the people who are performing that ritual to become acceptable to me again must wash their clothes and bathe. If they do that, on that evening they will become acceptable to me again.
20 И человек, иже аше осквернится, и не очистит себе, потребится душа та от среды сонма, яко святая Господня осквернави, яко вода окропления не воскропися Нань, нечист есть.
“If those who have become unacceptable to me do not become acceptable to me again by doing this, they will no longer be permitted to live among the Israeli people, because they have defiled my Sacred Tent. They did not sprinkle on themselves the water that removes the guilt of their sins, so they remain unacceptable to me.
21 И да будет вам законно вечно, и окропляяй водою окропления да исперет ризы своя, и прикасаяся воде окропления нечист будет до вечера.
That is a law for the Israeli people that will never be changed. Those who sprinkle that water on themselves must then wash their clothes. And anyone who touches that water which removes guilt for sins will remain unacceptable to God until that evening.
22 И всякое, емуже прикоснется нечистый, нечисто будет: и душа прикасающаяся нечиста будет до вечера.
“If someone touches a thing or a person that has become unacceptable to me, that person will remain unacceptable to me until that evening.”
