< Leviticus 23 >

1 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ,
2 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, [Concerning] the set feasts of Jehovah, which ye shall proclaim as holy convocations — these are my set feasts.
“Arĩria andũ a Isiraeli, ũmeere atĩrĩ: ‘Ici nĩcio ciathĩ ciakwa iria ciathanĩtwo, o iria ciathanĩtwo cia Jehova, iria mũkaahunjanĩria ũhoro wacio atĩ nĩ ciũngano theru.
3 Six days shall work be done; but on the seventh day is the sabbath of rest, a holy convocation; no manner of work shall ye do: it is the sabbath to Jehovah in all your dwellings.
“‘Kũrĩ na mĩthenya ĩtandatũ rĩrĩa mũngĩruta wĩra, no mũthenya wa mũgwanja nĩ Thabatũ ya kũhurũka, mũthenya wa kĩũngano gĩtheru. Mũtikanarute wĩra o na ũrĩkũ; kũrĩa guothe mũgaatũũra, ĩyo nĩ Thabatũ ya Jehova.
4 These are the set feasts of Jehovah, holy convocations, which ye shall proclaim in their seasons:
“‘Ici nĩcio ciathĩ iria ciathanĩtwo cia Jehova, nĩcio ciũngano iria theru, iria mũrĩhunjanagĩria mahinda ma cio makinya.
5 In the first month, on the fourteenth of the month, between the two evenings, is the passover to Jehovah.
Bathaka ya Jehova ĩrĩambagĩrĩria hwaĩ-inĩ kwaira, mũthenya wa ikũmi na ĩna wa mweri wa mbere.
6 And on the fifteenth day of this month is the feast of unleavened bread to Jehovah; seven days shall ye eat unleavened bread.
Mũthenya wa ikũmi na ĩtano, wa mweri ũcio nĩguo gĩathĩ kĩa Jehova kĩa Mĩgate ĩtarĩ Mĩĩkĩre Ndawa ya Kũimbia kĩrĩambagĩrĩria, na kwa ihinda rĩa mĩthenya mũgwanja no nginya mũrĩĩage mĩgate ĩtarĩ na ndawa ya kũimbia.
7 On the first day ye shall have a holy convocation: no manner of servile work shall ye do.
Mũthenya wa mbere mũgĩe na kĩũngano gĩtheru, na mũtikarute wĩra ũrĩa mũrutaga.
8 And ye shall present to Jehovah an offering by fire seven days; on the seventh day is a holy convocation: no manner of servile work shall ye do.
Mĩthenya mũgwanja rutagĩrai Jehova iruta rĩa gũcinwo na mwaki. Na mũthenya wa mũgwanja, mũgĩage na kĩũngano gĩtheru, na mũtikanarute wĩra ũrĩa mũrutaga.’”
9 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ,
10 Speak unto the children of Israel and say unto them, When ye come into the land that I give unto you, and ye reap the harvest thereof, then ye shall bring a sheaf of the first-fruits of your harvest unto the priest.
“Arĩria andũ a Isiraeli, ũmeere atĩrĩ: ‘Rĩrĩa mũgaatoonya bũrũri ũcio ngũmũhe na mũgethe magetha maguo, nĩmũkarehere mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai kĩohe kĩa mbere kĩa ngano ĩrĩa mũkaagetha.
11 And he shall wave the sheaf before Jehovah, to be accepted for you; on the next day after the sabbath the priest shall wave it.
Nake athũngũthie kĩohe kĩu mbere ya Jehova nĩguo gĩĩtĩkĩrĩke handũ-inĩ hanyu; mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai agagĩthũngũthia mũthenya ũrĩa ũrũmĩrĩire Thabatũ.
12 And ye shall offer that day when ye wave the sheaf, a he-lamb without blemish, a yearling, for a burnt-offering to Jehovah;
Mũthenya ũcio mũgaathũngũthia kĩohe kĩu, no nginya mũkaarutĩra Jehova iruta rĩa njino rĩa gatũrũme ka ũkũrũ wa mwaka ũmwe gatarĩ na kaũũgũ,
13 and the oblation thereof: two tenths of fine flour mingled with oil, an offering by fire to Jehovah for a sweet odour; and the drink-offering thereof, of wine, a fourth part of a hin.
hamwe na iruta rĩarĩo rĩa mũtu wa gĩthimi gĩa icunjĩ igĩrĩ cia ikũmi cia eba ĩmwe ya mũtu ũrĩa mũhinyu mũno ũtukanĩtio na maguta, nĩrĩo iruta rĩrutĩirwo Jehova rĩa gũcinwo na mwaki, rĩrĩ na mũtararĩko mwega, na iruta rĩa kũnyuuo, rĩrĩ gacunjĩ kamwe ka inya ka hini ĩmwe ya ndibei.
14 And ye shall not eat bread, or roast corn, or green ears, until the same day that ye have brought the offering of your God: [it is] an everlasting statute throughout your generations in all your dwellings.
Mũtikanarĩe mũgate o na ũrĩkũ, kana ngano ya kũhĩĩhio, kana ya mũgethano, o nginya mũthenya ũrĩa mũkaarehera Ngai wanyu iruta rĩĩrĩ. Ũndũ ũyũ ũtuĩke watho mwandĩke wa gũtũũra nginya kũrĩ njiarwa iria igooka, kũrĩa guothe mũgaatũũra.
15 And ye shall count from the morning after the sabbath, from the day that ye brought the sheaf of the wave-offering, seven weeks; they shall be complete;
“‘Kuuma mũthenya ũrĩa ũrũmĩrĩire Thabatũ, mũthenya ũrĩa mwatwarire kĩohe kĩa iruta rĩa gũthũngũthio, mũgatara ciumia ingĩ mũgwanja.
16 even unto the morning after the seventh sabbath shall ye count fifty days; and ye shall present a new oblation to Jehovah.
Mũtare matukũ mĩrongo ĩtano kuuma mũthenya ũrĩa ũrũmĩrĩire Thabatũ ya kũhingithia mũgwanja, mũcooke mũrutĩre Jehova iruta rĩa mũtu wa ngano ya mũgethano.
17 Out of your dwellings shall ye bring two wave-loaves, of two tenths of fine flour; with leaven shall they be baken; [as] first-fruits to Jehovah.
Kuuma kũrĩa guothe mũtũũraga, mũrehe mĩgate ĩĩrĩ ĩthondeketwo na tũcunjĩ twĩrĩ twa ikũmi twa eba ĩmwe ya mũtu ũrĩa mũhinyu mũno, ĩrugĩtwo na ndawa ya kũimbia, ĩtuĩke ya iruta rĩa gũthũngũthio rĩa maciaro ma mbere marutĩirwo Jehova.
18 And ye shall present with the bread seven he-lambs without blemish, yearlings, and one young bullock, and two rams: they shall be a burnt-offering to Jehovah with their oblation, and their drink-offerings, an offering by fire of a sweet odour to Jehovah.
Rutanĩriai mĩgate ĩyo na tũtũrũme mũgwanja, o kamwe karĩ na ũkũrũ wa mwaka ũmwe, na tũtarĩ na kaũũgũ, na gategwa kamwe, na ndũrũme igĩrĩ. Nacio igaatuĩka iruta rĩa njino rĩrutĩirwo Jehova, hamwe na maruta macio ma mũtu na ma kũnyuuo, rĩĩrĩ nĩ iruta rĩa gũcinwo na mwaki, rĩrĩ na mũtararĩko mwega wa gũkenia Jehova.
19 And ye shall sacrifice one buck of the goats for a sin-offering, and two he-lambs, yearlings, for a sacrifice of peace-offering.
Mũcooke mũrute thenge ĩmwe ya igongona rĩa kũhoroherio mehia, na tũtũrũme twĩrĩ, o kamwe karĩ na ũkũrũ wa mwaka ũmwe, twa iruta rĩa ũiguano.
20 And the priest shall wave them with the bread of the first-fruits as a wave-offering before Jehovah, with the two he-lambs; they shall be holy to Jehovah, for the priest.
Mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩagathũngũthia tũtũrũme tũu tweerĩ mbere ya Jehova, tũtuĩke iruta rĩa gũthũngũthio, hamwe na mĩgate ĩyo ya maciaro ma mbere. Macio nĩ maruta matheru marutĩirwo Jehova nĩ ũndũ wa mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai.
21 And ye shall make proclamation on that same day — a holy convocation shall it be unto you: no manner of servile work shall ye do: [it is] an everlasting statute in all your dwellings throughout your generations.
Mũthenya o ro ũcio, nĩmũkahunjanĩria kĩũngano gĩtheru, na mũtikanarute wĩra ũrĩa mũrutaga. Ũyũ nĩguo ũgaatuĩka watho mwandĩke wa gũtũũra nginya harĩ njiarwa iria igooka, o kũrĩa guothe mũgaatũũra.
22 And when ye reap the harvest of your land, thou shalt not in thy harvest entirely reap the corners of thy field, and the gleaning of thy harvest shalt thou not gather: thou shalt leave them unto the poor and to the stranger: I am Jehovah your God.
“‘Rĩrĩa mũkaagetha irio bũrũri-inĩ wanyu, mũtikanagethe nginya ndeere-inĩ cia mĩgũnda yanyu, o na mũtikanonganie rũitĩki rwa magetha manyu. Rũtigagĩriei andũ arĩa athĩĩni na arĩa ageni. Niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova Ngai wanyu.’”
23 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ,
24 Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, In the seventh month, on the first of the month, shall ye have a rest, a memorial of blowing of trumpets, a holy convocation.
“Ĩra andũ a Isiraeli atĩrĩ: ‘Mũthenya wa mbere wa mweri wa mũgwanja-rĩ, nĩmũrĩgĩaga na mũthenya wa kũhurũka, kĩũngano gĩtheru, na ũririkanagwo na ũndũ wa kũhuha tũrumbeta.
25 No manner of servile work shall ye do; and ye shall present an offering by fire to Jehovah.
Mũtikanarute wĩra ũrĩa mũrutaga, no mũrutagĩre Jehova iruta rĩa gũcinwo na mwaki.’”
26 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ,
27 Also on the tenth of this seventh month is the day of the atonement: a holy convocation shall it be unto you; and ye shall afflict your souls, and present an offering by fire to Jehovah.
“Mũthenya wa ikũmi wa mweri ũyũ wa mũgwanja, nĩguo Mũthenya wa Kũhoroherio Mehia. Mũgĩage na kĩũngano gĩtheru na mwĩimage irio, na mũrutagĩre Jehova iruta rĩa gũcinwo na mwaki.
28 And ye shall do no manner of work on that same day; for it is a day of atonement, to make atonement for you before Jehovah your God.
Mũtikanarute wĩra mũthenya ũcio, tondũ nĩguo Mũthenya wa Kũhoroherio Mehia, hĩndĩ ĩrĩa mũrahoroherio mehia mbere ya Jehova-Ngai wanyu.
29 For every soul that is not afflicted on that same day, shall be cut off from among his peoples.
Mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ ũrĩa ũtakeima irio mũthenya ũcio nĩakaingatwo kuuma kũrĩ andũ ao.
30 And every soul that doeth any manner of work on that same day, the same soul will I destroy from among his people.
Mũndũ o wothe ũkaaruta wĩra mũthenya ũcio nĩngamũniina kuuma thĩinĩ wa andũ ao.
31 No manner of work shall ye do: [it is] an everlasting statute throughout your generations in all your dwellings.
Mũtikanarute wĩra o na ũrĩkũ. Ũyũ ũgũtuĩka watho mwandĩke wa gũtũũra nginya harĩ njiarwa iria igooka, o kũrĩa guothe mũgaatũũra.
32 A sabbath of rest shall it be unto you; and ye shall afflict your souls. On the ninth of the month at even, from even unto even, shall ye celebrate your sabbath.
Ĩyo nĩ Thabatũ yanyu ya kũhurũka, na no nginya mwĩime irio. Kuuma hwaĩ-inĩ wa mũthenya wa kenda wa mweri o ro ũcio nginya hwaĩ-inĩ wa mũthenya ũcio ũngĩ, nĩmũrĩmenyagĩrĩra Thabatũ yanyu.”
33 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ,
34 Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, On the fifteenth day of this seventh month is the feast of booths seven days to Jehovah.
“Ĩra andũ a Isiraeli atĩrĩ: ‘Mũthenya wa ikũmi na ĩtano wa mweri wa mũgwanja nĩguo Gĩathĩ kĩa Jehova gĩa Ithũnũ gĩkaambĩrĩria, na gĩgaaikara mĩthenya mũgwanja.
35 On the first day there shall be a holy convocation: no manner of servile work shall ye do.
Mũthenya wa mbere nĩ wa kĩũngano gĩtheru; mũtikanarute wĩra ũrĩa mũrutaga.
36 Seven days ye shall present an offering by fire to Jehovah; on the eighth day shall be a holy convocation unto you; and ye shall present an offering by fire to Jehovah: it is a solemn assembly; no manner of servile work shall ye do.
Mĩthenya mũgwanja mũkaarutagĩra Jehova maruta ma gũcinwo na mwaki, naguo mũthenya wa ĩnana-rĩ, mũgĩe na kĩũngano gĩtheru, na mũrutĩre Jehova iruta rĩa gũcinwo na mwaki. Mũthenya ũcio nĩguo wa kũhinga kĩũngano; mũtikanarute wĩra ũrĩa mũrutaga.
37 These are the set feasts of Jehovah, which ye shall proclaim as holy convocations, to present an offering by fire to Jehovah, a burnt-offering, and an oblation, a sacrifice, and drink-offerings, everything upon its day;
(“‘Ici nĩcio ciathĩ cia Jehova iria ciathanĩtwo, iria mũkaahunjanĩria irĩ ciũngano theru cia kũrehere Jehova maruta ma gũcinwo na mwaki, na nĩmo maruta ma njino, na maruta ma mũtu, na magongona na maruta ma kũnyuuo marĩa marĩbataranagia o mũthenya.
38 besides the sabbaths of Jehovah, and besides your gifts, and besides all your vows, and besides all your voluntary offerings, which ye give to Jehovah.
Maruta maya nĩ ma kuongererwo harĩ marĩa mangĩ ma Thabatũ cia Jehova na nyongerera ya iheo cianyu na kĩrĩa gĩothe mwĩranĩire na mwĩhĩtwa, na maruta mothe ma kwĩyendera marĩa mũrutagĩra Jehova.)
39 But on the fifteenth day of the seventh month, when ye have gathered in the produce of the land, ye shall celebrate the feast of Jehovah seven days: on the first day there shall be rest, and on the eighth day there shall be rest.
“‘Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, kwambĩrĩria mũthenya wa ikũmi na ĩtano wa mweri wa mũgwanja, mwarĩkia kũgetha irio bũrũri-inĩ, nĩ mũgaakũngũĩra gĩathĩ kĩu kĩa Jehova mĩthenya mũgwanja. Mũthenya wa mbere nĩ wa kũhurũka, na mũthenya wa ĩnana o naguo no wa kũhurũka.
40 And ye shall take on the first day the fruit of beautiful trees, palm branches and the boughs of leafy trees, and willows of the brook; and ye shall rejoice before Jehovah your God seven days.
Mũthenya wa mbere nĩmũkooya maciaro marĩa mega mũno ma mĩtĩ, na mathĩgĩ ma mĩtende, na honge cia mĩtĩ ĩrĩa ĩrĩ na mathangũ maingĩ, na cia mĩtĩ ĩrĩa ĩmeraga tũrũũĩ-inĩ, na mũkene mũrĩ mbere ya Jehova Ngai wanyu mĩthenya mũgwanja.
41 And ye shall celebrate it as a feast to Jehovah seven days in the year: [it is] an everlasting statute throughout your generations; in the seventh month shall ye celebrate it.
