Leviticus 15

1 And the LORD said to Moses and Aaron,

1 Bwana akawaambia Mose na Aroni,

2 “Say to the Israelites, ‘When any man has a bodily discharge, the discharge is unclean.

2 “Semeni na Waisraeli mwaambie: ‘Wakati mtu yeyote anapotokwa na usaha mwilini, usaha huo ni najisi.

3 This uncleanness is from his discharge, whether his body allows the discharge to flow or blocks it. So his discharge will bring about uncleanness.

3 Iwe unaendelea kutiririka kutoka mwilini mwake au umeziba, utamfanya kuwa najisi. Hivi ndivyo usaha wake utakavyomletea unajisi:

4 Any bed on which the man with the discharge lies will be unclean, and any furniture on which he sits will be unclean.

4 “ ‘Kitanda chochote atakacholalia mtu mwenye kutokwa na usaha kitakuwa najisi, na chochote atakachokalia kitakuwa najisi.

5 Anyone who touches his bed must wash his clothes and bathe with water, and he will be unclean until evening.

5 Yeyote atakayegusa kitanda chake ni lazima afue nguo zake na aoge kwa maji, naye atakuwa najisi mpaka jioni.

6 Whoever sits on furniture on which the man with the discharge was sitting must wash his clothes and bathe with water, and he will be unclean until evening.

6 Yeyote atakayeketi juu ya kitu chochote alichokalia mwenye kutokwa na usaha, ni lazima afue nguo zake, na aoge kwa maji, naye atakuwa najisi mpaka jioni.

7 Whoever touches the body of the man with a discharge must wash his clothes and bathe with water, and he will be unclean until evening.

7 “ ‘Yeyote atakayemgusa mtu mwenye kutokwa na usaha, ni lazima afue nguo zake na aoge kwa maji, naye atakuwa najisi mpaka jioni.

8 If the man with the discharge spits on one who is clean, that person must wash his clothes and bathe with water, and he will be unclean until evening.

8 “ ‘Ikiwa mtu mwenye kutokwa na usaha atamtemea mate mtu yeyote ambaye ni safi, mtu huyo ni lazima afue nguo zake na aoge kwa maji, naye atakuwa najisi mpaka jioni.

9 Any saddle on which the man with the discharge rides will be unclean.

9 “ ‘Kila tandiko ambalo mtu huyo atalikalia wakati wa kupanda mnyama litakuwa najisi,

10 Whoever touches anything that was under him will be unclean until evening, and whoever carries such things must wash his clothes and bathe with water, and he will be unclean until evening.

10 na yeyote atakayegusa kitu chochote alichokuwa amekalia atakuwa najisi mpaka jioni. Yeyote atakayeinua vitu hivyo ni lazima afue nguo zake na aoge kwa maji, naye atakuwa najisi mpaka jioni.

11 If the man with the discharge touches anyone without first rinsing his hands with water, the one who was touched must wash his clothes and bathe with water, and he will be unclean until evening.

11 “ ‘Yeyote atakayeguswa na mtu anayetokwa na usaha bila kunawa mikono yake kwa maji, ni lazima afue nguo zake na aoge kwa maji, naye atakuwa najisi mpaka jioni.

12 Any clay pot that the man with the discharge touches must be broken, and any wooden utensil must be rinsed with water.

12 “ ‘Chungu cha udongo kitakachoguswa na mtu huyo ni lazima kivunjwe, na kifaa chochote cha mbao kitaoshwa kwa maji.

13 When the man has been cleansed from his discharge, he must count off seven days for his cleansing, wash his clothes, and bathe himself in fresh water, and he shall be clean.

13 “ ‘Wakati mtu atakapotakasika kutoka usaha wake, anapaswa kuhesabu siku saba kwa utakaso wake. Ni lazima afue nguo zake na aoge kwa maji safi, naye atatakasika.

14 On the eighth day he is to take two turtledoves or two young pigeons, come before the LORD at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting, and give them to the priest.

14 Siku ya nane, atachukua hua wawili au makinda mawili ya njiwa, aje mbele za Bwana kwenye ingilio la Hema la Kukutania, na kumpa kuhani.

15 The priest is to sacrifice them, one as a sin offering and the other as a burnt offering. In this way the priest will make atonement for the man before the LORD because of his discharge.

15 Kuhani atavitoa dhabihu, mmoja kwa ajili ya sadaka ya dhambi na huyo mwingine kwa ajili ya sadaka ya kuteketezwa. Kwa njia hii atafanya upatanisho mbele za Bwana kwa ajili ya huyo mtu kwa sababu ya kutokwa usaha kwake.

16 When a man has an emission of semen, he must bathe his whole body with water, and he will be unclean until evening.

16 “ ‘Wakati mtu akitokwa na shahawa, ni lazima aoge mwili mzima kwa maji, na atakuwa najisi mpaka jioni.

17 Any clothing or leather on which there is an emission of semen must be washed with water, and it will remain unclean until evening.

17 Vazi lolote ama ngozi yoyote yenye shahawa juu yake ni lazima ioshwe kwa maji, na itakuwa najisi mpaka jioni.

18 If a man lies with a woman and there is an emission of semen, both must bathe with water, and they will remain unclean until evening.

18 Ikiwa mtu atalala na mwanamke, na kukawa na kutoka kwa shahawa, ni lazima wote waoge kwa maji, nao watakuwa najisi mpaka jioni.

19 When a woman has a discharge consisting of blood from her body, she will be unclean due to her menstruation for seven days, and anyone who touches her will be unclean until evening.

19 “ ‘Ikiwa mwanamke atatokwa na damu ya kawaida ya mwezi, atakuwa najisi kwa siku saba, na yeyote atakayemgusa atakuwa najisi mpaka jioni.

20 Anything on which she lies or sits during her menstruation will be unclean,

20 “ ‘Chochote atakacholalia wakati wake wa hedhi kitakuwa najisi, na chochote atakachokikalia kitakuwa najisi.

21 and anyone who touches her bed must wash his clothes and bathe with water, and he will be unclean until evening.

21 Yeyote atakayegusa kitanda chake ni lazima afue nguo zake na aoge kwa maji, naye atakuwa najisi mpaka jioni.

22 Whoever touches any furniture on which she was sitting must wash his clothes and bathe with water, and he will be unclean until evening.

22 Yeyote atakayegusa chochote atakachokalia ni lazima afue nguo zake na aoge kwa maji, naye atakuwa najisi mpaka jioni.

23 And whether it is a bed or furniture on which she was sitting, whoever touches it will be unclean until evening.

23 Kiwe ni kitanda ama chochote alichokuwa amekikalia, ikiwa mtu yeyote atakigusa, atakuwa najisi mpaka jioni.

24 If a man lies with her and her menstrual flow touches him, he will be unclean for seven days, and any bed on which he lies will become unclean.

24 “ ‘Ikiwa mwanaume atalala naye na ile damu ya mwezi ikamgusa, atakuwa najisi kwa siku saba; kitanda chochote atakachokilalia huyo mwanaume kitakuwa najisi.

25 When a woman has a discharge of her blood for many days at a time other than her menstrual period, or if it continues beyond her period, she will be unclean all the days of her unclean discharge, just as she is during the days of her menstruation.

25 “ ‘Ikiwa mwanamke atatokwa na damu kwa siku nyingi zaidi ya siku zake za mwezi, au amekuwa na damu inayoendelea zaidi ya kipindi chake, atakuwa najisi kwa kipindi chote cha shida hiyo, kama ilivyokuwa katika siku za hedhi yake.

26 Any bed on which she lies or any furniture on which she sits during the days of her discharge will be unclean, like her bed during her menstrual period.

26 Kitanda chochote atakachokilalia huyo mwanamke wakati anaendelea kutokwa na damu kitakuwa najisi, kama kilivyokuwa kitanda chake wakati wa siku zake za hedhi, na chochote atakachokalia kitakuwa najisi, kama wakati wake wa hedhi.

27 Anyone who touches these things will be unclean; he must wash his clothes and bathe with water, and he will be unclean until evening.

27 Yeyote agusaye vitu hivyo atakuwa najisi; ni lazima afue nguo zake na kuoga kwa maji, naye atakuwa najisi mpaka jioni.

28 When a woman is cleansed of her discharge, she must count off seven days, and after that she will be ceremonially clean.

28 “ ‘Wakati atakapotakasika kutoka hedhi yake, ni lazima ahesabu siku saba, na baada ya hapo atakuwa safi kwa kawaida ya ibada.

29 On the eighth day she is to take two turtledoves or two young pigeons and bring them to the priest at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.

29 Siku ya nane ni lazima achukue hua wawili au makinda mawili ya njiwa, na kumletea kuhani kwenye mlango wa Hema la Kukutania.

30 The priest is to sacrifice one as a sin offering and the other as a burnt offering. In this way the priest will make atonement for her before the LORD for her unclean discharge.

30 Kuhani atatoa dhabihu, mmoja kwa ajili ya sadaka ya dhambi, na huyo mwingine kwa ajili ya sadaka ya kuteketezwa. Kwa njia hii, atafanya upatanisho kwa ajili yake mbele za Bwana kwa sababu ya unajisi wa kutokwa damu kwake.

31 You must keep the children of Israel separate from their uncleanness, so that they do not die by defiling My tabernacle, which is among them.

31 “ ‘Ni lazima uwatenge Waisraeli kutokana na vitu ambavyo vinawafanya najisi, ili wasife katika unajisi wao kwa kunajisi makao yangu, ambayo yapo katikati yao.’”

32 This is the law of him who has a discharge, of the man who has an emission of semen whereby he is unclean,

32 Haya ni masharti kwa ajili ya mtu mwenye kutokwa na usaha, kwa ajili ya yeyote atakayetokwa na shahawa,

33 of a woman in her menstrual period, of any male or female who has a discharge, and of a man who lies with an unclean woman.’”

33 kwa ajili ya mwanamke katika siku zake za hedhi, kwa ajili ya mwanaume au mwanamke atokwaye na usaha, na kwa ajili ya mwanaume alalaye na mwanamke ambaye ni najisi kwa kawaida ya ibada.
