Hesabu 6
1 BWANA alinena na Musa. Akamwabia,
The Lord told Moses,
2 'Nena na wana wa Israeli, uwaambie, 'Kama mume au mke ataweka nadhiri kwa BWANA kwa kiapo maalumu cha mnadhiri, ndipo atajiepusha na divai na vileo. hatakunywa siki itokanayo na divai.
“Tell the Israelites: If a man or a woman makes a special promise to become a Nazirite, to dedicate themselves to the Lord,
3 Asinywe kileo kitokanacho na siki au kilevi. Asinywe maji ya divai yeyote au kula zabibu mbichi wala zilizokauka.
they must not drink any wine or other alcoholic drink. They must not even drink vinegar made from wine or other alcoholic drink, or any grape juice or eat grapes or raisins.
4 Katika siku zote ambazo amejitenga kwa ajili yangu, asile chochote kinachotokana na zabibu, wala kitu chochote kitokanacho na makokwa hadi maganda.
The whole time they are dedicated to the Lord they must not eat anything from a grapevine, not even grape seeds or skins.
5 Wakati wote wa nadhiri yake, wembe usiipite kichwani mwake mpaka siku zake za nadhiri kwa BWANA zitimilike. Lazima ajitenge kwa BWANA. Ataziacha nywele zake zikue kichwani mwake.
They must not use a razor on their heads during the whole time of this promise of dedication. They must remain holy until their time of dedication to the Lord is finished. They must let their hair grow long.
6 Wakati wote wa kujidhiri kwake kwa BWANA, asiikaribie maiti.
During this time of dedication to the Lord they must not go near a dead body.
7 Asijinajisi kwa namna yeyote hata kama atakufa baba yake, mama, dada, au ndugu yake. Hii ni kwa sababu amejitenga kwa ajili ya Mungu, kama ambavyo kila mmoja anavyoweza kumuona kwa uerfu wa nywele zake.
Even if it's their father, mother, brother or sister who has died, they are not to make themselves unclean, because their uncut hair announces their dedication to God.
8 Wakati wote wa kujidhiri kwake atakuwa mtakatifu, alijitunza kwa ajili ya BWANA.
Through the whole time of their dedication they are to be holy to the Lord.
9 Ikitokea mtu amekufa ghafla pembeni yake na kukitia unajisi kichwa chake kitakatifu, ndipo atakaponyoa kichwa chake katika siku ya kujitakasa —Siku ya saba atanyoa kichwa chake.
However, if someone dies suddenly close to them, making them unclean, they must wait seven days, and on the seventh day when they are made clean again they are to shave their heads.
10 Siku ya nane atamletea kuhani njiwa wawili au makinda mawili ya njiwa kwenye lango la hema ya kukutania.
On the eighth day they shall take two turtledoves or two young pigeons to the priest at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.
11 Naye kuhani atamtoa ndege mmoja kama sadaka ya dhambi na mwingine kama sadaka ya kuteketezwa. Hawa watafanyika sadaka ya upatanisho kwake kwa sababu atakuwa ametenda dhambi ya kuwa karibu na mfu. Atatakasika kichwa chake siku hiyo.
The priest will offer one as a sin offering and the other as a burnt offering to make them right, because they became guilty by being near the dead body. On that day they must re-dedicate themselves and let their hair grow again.
12 Atajitenga kwa BWANA tena katika siku hizo za utakaso. Ataleta kondoo mume mwenye umri wa mwaka mmoja kama sadaka ya hatia. Zile siku zake kabla ya kunajisika hazitahesabiwa, kwa sababu kujiweka wakfu kwake kulinajisika.
They must re-dedicate themselves to the Lord for the full time they originally promised and bring a one-year-old male lamb as a guilt offering. The previous days don't count towards the time of dedication because they became unclean.
13 Hii ndiyo sheria ya mnadhiri wakati wa muda wa kujidhiri unapokuwa umetimia. Ataletwa kwenye mlango wa hema ya kukutania.
These are the rules to be observed when the Nazirite's time of dedication is finished. They are to be taken to the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.
14 Ataleta sadaka yake kwa BWANA. Atatoa mwanakondoo mume wa mwaka mmoja asiye na hila kama sadaka ya kuteketezwa. Ataleta kondoo mke wa mwaka mmoja asiye na hila kama sadaka ya dhambi. Ataleta kondoo mume asiye na hila kama sadaka ya amani.
There they are to present an offering to the Lord of a one-year-old male lamb without defects as a burnt offering, a one-year-old female lamb without defects as a sin offering, and ram without defects as a peace offering.
15 Ataleta kikapu cha mikate iliyotengenezwa bila amira, mikate ya unga mwembamba iliyokandwa kwa mafuta, mikate ya kaki isiyo na amira iliyopakwa mafuta, pamoja na sadaka za unga na sadaka za vinywaji.
In addition they are to bring a basket of bread without yeast made from the best flour mixed with olive oil and wafers without yeast coated with olive oil as well as their grain offerings and drink offerings.
16 Kuhani atawaleta mbele za BWANA. Atazitoa hizo sadaka zake za dhambi na kuteketezwa.
The priest will present all these before the Lord as well as sacrificing the sin offering and the burnt offering.
17 Na kikapu cha mikate isiyowekwa amira, atamtoa yule kondoo mume kama sadaka ya amani kwa BWANA. Pia kuhani atatoa hiyo sadaka ya unga na sadaka ya vinywaji.
He will also sacrifice a ram as a peace offering to the Lord, together with the basket of bread made without yeast. In addition the priest will present the grain offering and drink offering.
18 Mnadhiri atanyoa nywele zake kama ishara ya kujitenga kwa ajili ya Mungu kwenye mlango wa hema ya kukutania. Atazitoa nywele zake kichwani kwake na kuzichoma kwa moto ulio chini ya sadaka ya amani.
Then the Nazirites are to shave their heads at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting. They shall take the hair from their heads that were dedicated, and place it on the fire under the peace offering.
19 Kuhani atachukua bega la kondoo mume lililotokoswa, na mkate usiotiwa amira toka kikapuni, na mkate mmoja wa kaki usiotiwa amira. Atauweka kwenye mikono ya Mnadhiri baada ya kuwa amenyoa nywele kwa ishara ya kujidhiri.
Once the Nazirites have shaved, the priest will take the boiled shoulder from the ram, one bread without yeast from the basket, and one wafer without yeast, and place them in their hands.
20 Kisha kuhani atavitikisa kuwa sadaka kwa BWANA, sehemu takatifu kwa kuhani, pamoja na kidari cha kutikiswa na paja lililotolewa kwa kwa kuhani. Baadaye, Mnadhiri anaweza kunywa divai.
The priest will wave them as a wave offering before the Lord. These items are holy and belong to the priest, as well as the breast of the wave offering and the thigh that was offered. Once this is finished, Nazirites may drink wine.
21 Hii ndiyo sheri ya Mnadhiri anayeapia sadaka yake kwa BWANA kwa ajili ya kujidhiri kwake. Chochote atakachotoa, lazima afanye kama alivyoapa, kuilinda ahadi yake kama ilivyoaniswa katika sheria ya Mnadhiri.
These are the rules to be observed when a Nazirite promises to give offerings to the Lord regarding their dedication. They can also bring additional offerings if they can afford it. Every Nazirite must fulfill whatever promises they have made when they dedicated themselves.”
22 Tena BWANA akanena na Musa, akasema,
The Lord told Moses,
23 “nena na Harunu na wanawe. Uwaambie, 'mtawabariki wana wa Israeli kwa njia hii. Mtawaambia,
“Tell Aaron and his sons: This is how you are to bless the Israelites. This is what they are to say:
24 BWANA na awabariki na kuwatunza.
‘May the Lord bless you and take care of you.
25 BWANA na awaangazie nuru ya uso wake na awe mwenye neema kwenu.
May the Lord smile on you and be gracious to you.
26 BWANA na awatazame kwa neema na awape amani.'”
May the Lord watch over you and give you peace.’
27 Ni kwa jinsi hii kwamba wanaweza kuwapa jina langu wana wa Israeli.”
Whenever the priests bless the Israelites in my name, I will bless them.”
