Hesabu 5
1 BWANA alinena na Musa. Akasema,
Then the LORD said to Moses,
2 “Waamuru wana wa Israel wawatoe watu wote wenye magonjwa ya ngozi yanayoambukiza, na kila mwenye mwenye vidonda vinavyotoa harufu, na ambaye amenajisika kwa kugusa maiti.
“Command the Israelites to send away from the camp anyone with a skin disease, anyone who has a bodily discharge, and anyone who is defiled by a dead body.
3 Awe mme au mke, umtoa kambini. Ili wasije wakaitia unajisi kambi, kwa sababu Mimi huishi ndani yake,”
You must send away male and female alike; send them outside the camp so they will not defile their camp, where I dwell among them.”
4 Watu wa Israeli walifanya hivyo. Waliwatoa kambini, Kama BWANA alivyomwagiza Musa. Watu wa Israeli walimtii BWANA.
So the Israelites did this, sending such people outside the camp. They did just as the LORD had instructed Moses.
5 Tena BWANA akanena na Musa. Akasema,
And the LORD said to Moses,
6 “Nena na wana wa Israeli. mtu mume na mtu mke akifanya dhambi yeyote ambayo watu hufanyiana wao kwa wao, na mtu huyo akamwasi BWANA, mtu huyo atakuwa na hatia.
“Tell the Israelites that when a man or woman acts unfaithfully against the LORD by committing any sin against another, that person is guilty
7 Ndipo huyo mtu ataungama hiyo dhambi aliyoifanya. Mtu huyo atarudisha malipo ya hatia yake na kuongeza kwenye malipo hayo sehemu ya tano zaidi. Atamlipa huyo aliyemtendea makosa
and must confess the sin he has committed. He must make full restitution, add a fifth to its value, and give all this to the one he has wronged.
8 Lakini kama huyo mtu huyu aliyetendewa kosa hana ndugu wa kupokea hayo malipo, basi atalipa hayo malipo ya hatia kwangu kupitia kuhani pamoja na kondoo dume kwa ajili ya sadaka yake mwenyewe.
But if the man has no relative to whom restitution can be made for the wrong, the restitution belongs to the LORD and must be given to the priest along with the ram of atonement, by which the atonement is made for him.
9 Kila sadaka ya wana wa Israeli, vitu ambavyo vimetengwa na vikaletwa kwa kuhani na watu wa Israeli, vitakuwa vyake.
Every sacred contribution the Israelites bring to the priest shall belong to him.
10 Sadaka ya kila mtu itakuwa ya kuhani; kama mtu yeyote atatoa kitu chochote kwa kuhani, kitakuwa chake.”
Each man’s sacred gifts are his own, but whatever he gives to the priest will belong to the priest.”
11 Tena BWANA akanena na Musa. Akasema,
Then the LORD said to Moses,
12 “Nena na wana wa Israel. Uwaambie, 'kama mke wa mtu ataasi na kufanya dhambi dhidi ya mume wake.
“Speak to the Israelites and tell them that if any man’s wife goes astray and is unfaithful to him
13 Halafu mtu mwingine akalala naye. Kwa sababu, hiyo atakuwa amenajisika. Na hata kama mume wake hakuona na hajui, hata kama hakuna mtu aliyemkamta akiwa katika tendo na hakuna mtu wa kushuhudia dhidi yake; hata hivyo ile roho ya wivu itaendele kumjulisha yule mume kuwa mke wake amenajisika.
by sleeping with another man, and it is concealed from her husband and her impurity is undetected (since there is no witness against her and she was not caught in the act),
14 Ingawa, roho ya wivu inaweza kumdanganya yule mwanamume wakati mke wake hajanajisika.
and if a feeling of jealousy comes over her husband and he suspects his wife who has defiled herself—or if a feeling of jealousy comes over him and he suspects her even though she has not defiled herself—
15 Kwa mazingira hayo, yule mwanamume anapaswa kumpeleka mke wake kwa kuhani. Yule mwanamume anapaswa kutoa sadaka ya divai kwa ajili yake. Atapaswa kuleta sehemu ya kumi ya efa ya unga wa shayiri. Asitie mafuta juu yake wala asitie ubani juu yake maana ni sadaka ya unga ya wivu, ni sadaka ya unga ya ukumbusho wa uovu.
then he is to bring his wife to the priest. He must also bring for her an offering of a tenth of an ephah of barley flour. He is not to pour oil over it or put frankincense on it, because it is a grain offering for jealousy, an offering of memorial as a reminder of iniquity.
16 Ndipo kuhani atasogeza karibu na kumweka mbele ya BWANA.
The priest is to bring the wife forward and have her stand before the LORD.
17 Kuhani atachukua kikombe cha maji matakatifu na atachukua mavumbi ya kwenye masikani. Ataweka yale mavumbi kwenye maji.
Then he is to take some holy water in a clay jar and put some of the dust from the tabernacle floor into the water.
18 Kisha kuhani atamweka huyo mwanamke mbele za BWANA na atazifungua nywele kichwani kwa huyo mwanamke. Atamwekea mikononi mwake hiyo sadaka ya unga kwa ajili ya ukumbusho, ambayo ni sadaka ya unga kwa ajili ya wivu.
After the priest has the woman stand before the LORD, he is to let down her hair and place in her hands the grain offering of memorial, which is the grain offering for jealousy. The priest is to hold the bitter water that brings a curse.
19 Kuhani atashikilia mikononi mwake maji machungu yanayoweza kuleta laana. Kuhani atamweka huyo mwanamke chini ya kiapo na kumwambia. 'Kama haujafanya uzinzi na mwanaume mwingine, na kama hajakengeuka na kufanya uovu, basi utakuwa huru na maji haya yanayoweza kuleta laana.
And he is to put the woman under oath and say to her, ‘If no other man has slept with you and you have not gone astray and become defiled while under your husband’s authority, may you be immune to this bitter water that brings a curse.
20 Lakini kama wewe, mwanamke uliye chini ya mume wako, umekengeuka, na kama umenajisika, na kama mwanamume mwingina amelala nawe,
But if you have gone astray while under your husband’s authority and have defiled yourself and lain carnally with a man other than your husband’—
21 ndipo, (kuhani atamtaka huyo mwanamke aape kiapo kinachoweza kuleta laana kwake, na kwamba ataendelea kumwambia yule mwanamke) 'BWANA atakufanya wewe kuwa laana itakayooneshwa kuwa hivyo kwa watu wako. Hii itatokea pale BWANA atakapoyafanya mapaja yako kuoza na tumbo lako kuvimba.
and the priest shall have the woman swear under the oath of the curse—‘then may the LORD make you an attested curse among your people by making your thigh shrivel and your belly swell.
22 Haya maji ambayo huleta laana yataingia tumboni mwako na kulifanya tumbo lako kuvimba na mapaja yako kuoza,' mwanamke alitakiwa kujibu, 'Ndiyo, hayo yanipate kama mimi ni mwenye hatia.'
May this water that brings a curse enter your stomach and cause your belly to swell and your thigh to shrivel.’ Then the woman is to say, ‘Amen, Amen.’
23 Naye kuhani ataziandika laana hizi kwenye kitabu, na kisha kuzifuta laana zilizoandikwa kwa maji ya uchungu.
And the priest shall write these curses on a scroll and wash them off into the bitter water.
24 Naye kuhani atamwelekeza yule mwanamke kunywa yale maji machungu yaletayo laana. Yale maji yaletayo laana yataingia na kuwa machungu.
He is to have the woman drink the bitter water that brings a curse, and it will enter her and cause her bitter suffering.
25 Kuhani ataitwaa ile sadaka ya unga ya wivu mikononi mwa yule mwanamke. Atailekeza ile sadaka ya unga mbele ya BWANA na kuileta madhabahuni.
The priest shall take from her hand the grain offering for jealousy, wave it before the LORD, and bring it to the altar.
26 Kuhani atachukua konzi ya sadaka ya unga mkononi mwake kama sadaka ya kuwakilisha, na kuiteketeza madhabahuni. Ndipo atakapompatia mwanamke yale maji machungu ili ayanywe.
Then the priest is to take a handful of the grain offering as a memorial portion and burn it on the altar; after that he is to have the woman drink the water.
27 Wakati wa kumpa yale maji ili anywe, kama amenajisika kwa sababu alifanya uovu dhidi ya mume wake, ndipo yale maji yaletayo laana yatamwingia na kuwa machungu. Tumbo lake litavimba na paja lake litaoza. Yule mwanamke atalaaniwa kati ya watu wake.
When he has made her drink the water, if she has defiled herself and been unfaithful to her husband, then the water that brings a curse will enter her and cause bitter suffering; her belly will swell, her thigh will shrivel, and she will become accursed among her people.
28 Lakini kama yule mwanake hajanajisika na kama ni msafi, basi atakuwa huru. Tena ataweza kubeba uja uzito.
But if the woman has not defiled herself and is clean, she will be unaffected and able to conceive children.
29 Hii ndiyo sheria ya wivu. Ni sheria ya mwanamke anayekengeuka kwa mumewe na kunajisika.
This is the law of jealousy when a wife goes astray and defiles herself while under her husband’s authority,
30 Ni sheria ya mwanamume mwenye roho ya wivu kwa mkewe. Atamleta mwanamke mbele ya BWANA, na kuhani atamfanyia huyo mwanamke kila kitu ambacho sheria ya wivu inamtaka kufanya.
or when a feeling of jealousy comes over a husband and he suspects his wife. He is to have the woman stand before the LORD, and the priest is to apply to her this entire law.
31 Yule mwanamume atakuwa hana hatia kwa kumleta mke wake kwa kuhani. Na yule mwanmke atauchukua uovu wake.”
The husband will be free from guilt, but the woman shall bear her iniquity.”
