Laawiyiintii 21
1 Markaasaa Rabbigu Muuse ku yidhi, La hadal wadaaddada ah wiilashii Haaruun, oo waxaad ku tidhaahdaa, Ninkiinna yuusan isu nijaasayn mid dadkiisa ah oo dhintay,
The Lord also said to Moses: Speak to the priests, the sons of Aaron, and you shall say to them: Do not allow a priest to be contaminated by the death of his citizens,
2 xigaalkiisa u dhow mooyaane, kuwaasoo ah hooyadiis, ama aabbihiis, ama wiilkiisa, ama gabadhiisa, ama walaalkiis,
except only by his blood-relatives and near-relatives, that is, by a father or mother, or by a son or daughter, or also a brother,
3 ama walaashiisa bikradda ah oo isaga u dhow, oo aan weli nin guursan; taas wuu isu nijaasayn karaa.
or a virgin sister, who is not married to a husband.
4 Waa inuusan isnijaasayn isagoo dadkiisa madax u ah, yuusan nijaas iska dhigin.
But not even by the leader of his people shall he be contaminated.
5 Oo waa inaan ninkoodna madaxa xiiran, oo waa inayan gadhkooda xiirin, ama ayan jidhkooda gooyn.
Neither shall they shave their head or their beard, and they shall not make incisions in their flesh.
6 Iyagu waa inay Ilaahooda quduus u ahaadaan, oo ayan wax nijaas ah ka sheegin magaca Ilaahooda, waayo, iyagu waxay bixiyaan qurbaannadii Rabbiga ee dabka lagu sameeyo oo ah cuntada Ilaahooda, oo sidaas daraaddeed waa inay quduus ahaadaan.
They shall be holy to their God, and they shall not pollute his name. For they offer the incense of the Lord and the bread of their God, and because of this they shall be holy.
7 Waa inayan guursan naag dhillo ah ama mid la nijaaseeyey, oo waa inayan guursan naag la furay, waayo, wadaadku quduus buu Ilaahiis u yahay.
They shall not take as a wife a promiscuous woman, or a prostitute, or her who has been repudiated by her husband. For they are consecrated to their God,
8 Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed waa inaad isaga quduus ka dhigtaa, waayo, isagu wuxuu bixiyaa cuntada Ilaahaaga, oo isagu waa inuu quduus kuu ahaadaa, waayo, anba quduus baan ahay, anigoo ah Rabbiga quduus idinka dhiga.
and they offer the bread of the presence. Therefore, let them be holy, for I also am holy: the Lord, who sanctifies them.
9 Oo wadaad kasta haddii ay gabadhiisu isnijaasayso oo ay dhillowdo, iyadu nijaas bay ka dhigaysaa aabbaheed, oo waa in dab lagu gubaa.
If the daughter of a priest will have been taken into prostitution, and will have violated the name of her father, she shall be consumed by fire.
10 Oo kii wadaadka sare walaalihiis ka dhex ah, oo madaxiisa lagu shubay saliiddii subkidda, oo ah kan loo daahiriyey inuu xidho dharka quduuska ah waa inaanay timaha madaxiisu arbushnaan ama uusan dharkiisa dildillaacin.
The high priest, that is, the priest who is the greatest among his brothers, upon whose head the oil of anointing has been poured, and whose hands have been consecrated for the priesthood, and who has been vested with the holy vestments: he shall not expose his head; he shall not rend his vestments.
11 Oo weliba waa inuusan meyd gudaha ugu gelin, oo xataa waa inuusan isu nijaasayn aabbihiis iyo hooyadiis toona.
And he shall not enter to any dead body whatsoever; likewise, not even by his father or mother shall he be contaminated.
12 Oo waa inuusan dibadda uga bixin meesha quduuska ah, waana inuusan nijaasayn meesha quduuska ah ee Ilaahiisa, waayo, isaga waxaa kor saaran taajkii saliidda subkidda ee Ilaahiisa, waayo, aniga ayaa Rabbiga ah.
Neither shall he exit from the holy places, lest he pollute the Sanctuary of the Lord. For the oil of the holy anointing of his God is upon him. I am the Lord.
13 Oo isagu waa inuu guursadaa gabadh bikrad ah.
He shall take a virgin as his wife.
14 Waa inuusan marnaba guursan carmal, ama naag la furay, ama naag nijaasowday oo dhillo ah, laakiinse waa inuu guursadaa gabadh bikrad ah oo dadkiisa ka dhalatay.
But a widow, or one who has been repudiated or defiled, or also a mistress, he shall not accept, but only a maiden from among his own people.
15 Oo waa inuusan dhashiisa ku dhex nijaasayn dadkiisa, waayo, aniga ayaa ah Rabbiga isaga quduus ka dhiga.
He shall not mingle the stock of his family with the common people of his nation. For I am the Lord, who sanctifies him.
16 Markaasaa Rabbigu Muuse la hadlay oo wuxuu ku yidhi,
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
17 Haaruun la hadal, oo waxaad ku tidhaahdaa, Tan iyo ab ka ab ku alla kii farcankaaga ahu, isagoo iin leh, yuusan u dhowaan inuu cuntada Ilaahiisa bixiyo.
Say to Aaron: A man from your offspring, throughout their families, who has a blemish, shall not offer the bread to his God.
18 Waayo, nin alla ninkuu yahayba, kii iin lahu waa inuusan u soo dhowaan, kaasoo ah ninkii indha la' ama curyaan ah, ama kii sankiisu faruuran yahay, ama jidhkiisu leeyahay wax dheeraad ah,
Neither shall he approach to minister to him: if he is blind, if he is lame, if he is small, or large, or has a crooked nose,
19 ama ninkii cag jaban, ama gacan jaban,
if his foot or hand is broken,
20 ama kii tuur leh, ama kii cilin ah, ama kii ishiisu iin leedahay, ama kii cambaar qaba, ama kii cadho qaba, ama kii xiniinyihiisu burbureen.
if he has a bulging back or bleary eyes, or if he has a white spot in his eye, or a chronic scab, or a skin disease on his body, or a hernia.
21 Wadaadka Haaruun ah nin alla ninkii farcankiisa ka mid ahu isagoo iin leh waa inuusan u soo dhowaan inuu bixiyo qurbaannada Rabbiga oo dabka lagu sameeyo, waayo, isagu iin buu leeyahay, oo waa inuusan u soo dhowaan inuu cuntada Ilaahiisa bixiyo.
Anyone from the offspring of Aaron, the priest, who has a blemish, shall not approach to offer sacrifices to the Lord, nor the bread to his God.
22 Isagu waa inuu cunaa cuntada Ilaahiisa, tan quduuska ah iyo tan ugu wada quduusanba.
Nevertheless, he shall eat from the loaves which are offered in the Sanctuary.
23 Laakiinse waa inuusan meesha daaha leh gelin, ama uusan meesha allabariga u dhowaan, si uusan u nijaasayn meelahayga quduuska ah, maxaa yeelay, isagu iin buu leeyahay, oo aniga ayaa ah Rabbiga iyaga quduus ka dhiga.
But even so, he may not enter within the veil, nor approach to the altar. For he has a blemish, and he must not contaminate my Sanctuary. I am the Lord, who sanctifies them.
24 Muuse sidaasuu kula hadlay Haaruun iyo wiilashiisii, iyo dadkii reer binu Israa'iil oo dhanba.
Therefore, Moses spoke to Aaron, and to his sons, and to all of Israel, everything that had been commanded to him.
