Mambo ya Walawi 12

1 Yahweh akamwambia Musa,

And Jehovah spake unto Moses, saying,

2 “zungumza na watu wa Israeli, uwaambie, 'endapo mwanamke anakuwa mjamzito na kujifungua mtoto wa kiume, naye atakuwa najisi kwa muda wasiku saba, ni kama tu vile anavyokuwa najisi katika siku za kipindi chake kwa mwezi.

Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, If a woman conceive seed, and bear a man-child, then she shall be unclean seven days; as in the days of the impurity of her sickness shall she be unclean.

3 Katika siku ya nane nyama ya govi la mtoto mvulana itatahiriwa.

And in the eighth day the flesh of his foreskin shall be circumcised.

4 Kisha utakaso wa mama wa kutokwa damu yake utaendelea kwa muda wa siku tatu. Haimpasi kugusa kitu chochote kilicho kitakatifu au kukaribia eneo la hema mpaka zitakapomalizika siku za kutakaswa kwake.

And she shall continue in the blood of [her] purifying three and thirty days; she shall touch no hallowed thing, nor come into the sanctuary, until the days of her purifying be fulfilled.

5 Lakini kama atajifungua mtoto wa kike, naye atakuwa najisi kwa mud wa majuma mawili, kama alivyo wakati wa kipindi chake. Kisha utakaso wa mama utaendelea kwa siku sitini sita.

But if she bear a maid-child, then she shall be unclean two weeks, as in her impurity; and she shall continue in the blood of [her] purifying threescore and six days.

6 Siku za kutakaswa kwake zitakapoisha, kwa ajili ya mwana au binti, atalazimika kuleta kwa kuhani mwana-kondoo wa mwaka mmoja kuwa sadaka ya kuteketezwa, na kinda la njiwa au huwa kuwa sadaka ya dhambi, mbele ya ingilio la hema la kukutania,

And when the days of her purifying are fulfilled, for a son, or for a daughter, she shall bring a lamb a year old for a burnt-offering, and a young pigeon, or a turtle-dove, for a sin-offering, unto the door of the tent of meeting, unto the priest:

7 Kisha atawatoa mbele za Yahweh na kufanya sadaka ya upatanisho kwa ajili yake, naye atatakaswa kutokana kutiririka kwa damu yake. Hii ndiyo sheria kuhusu mwanamke aifunguaye ama mtoto wa kiume au wa kike.

and he shall offer it before Jehovah, and make atonement for her; and she shall be cleansed from the fountain of her blood. This is the law for her that beareth, whether a male or a female.

8 Na kama hana uwezo wa kutoa mwana-kondoo, naye ataleta makinda mawili ya njiwa ua hua, mmoja kwa ajili ya sadaka ya kuteketezwa na mwingine kuwa sadaka ya dhambi, naye kuhani atafanya upatanisho kwa ajili yake; naye atakuwa safi.”

And if her means suffice not for a lamb, then she shall take two turtle-doves, or two young pigeons; the one for a burnt-offering, and the other for a sin-offering: and the priest shall make atonement for her, and she shall be clean.
