¹Markaasaa Rabbigu Muuse ku yidhi, La hadal wadaaddada ah wiilashii Haaruun, oo waxaad ku tidhaahdaa, Ninkiinna yuusan isu nijaasayn mid dadkiisa ah oo dhintay,

¹And Jehovah saith unto Moses, `Speak unto the priests, sons of Aaron, and thou hast said unto them, For [any] person [a priest] is not defiled among his people,

²xigaalkiisa u dhow mooyaane, kuwaasoo ah hooyadiis, ama aabbihiis, ama wiilkiisa, ama gabadhiisa, ama walaalkiis,

²except for his relation who [is] near unto him — for his mother, and for his father, and for his son, and for his daughter, and for his brother.

³ama walaashiisa bikradda ah oo isaga u dhow, oo aan weli nin guursan; taas wuu isu nijaasayn karaa.

³and for his sister, the virgin, who is near unto him, who hath not been to a man; for her he is defiled.

⁴Waa inuusan isnijaasayn isagoo dadkiisa madax u ah, yuusan nijaas iska dhigin.

⁴`A master [priest] doth not defile himself among his people — to pollute himself;

⁵Oo waa inaan ninkoodna madaxa xiiran, oo waa inayan gadhkooda xiirin, ama ayan jidhkooda gooyn.

⁵they do not make baldness on their head, and the corner of their beard they do not shave, and in their flesh they do not make a cutting;

⁶Iyagu waa inay Ilaahooda quduus u ahaadaan, oo ayan wax nijaas ah ka sheegin magaca Ilaahooda, waayo, iyagu waxay bixiyaan qurbaannadii Rabbiga ee dabka lagu sameeyo oo ah cuntada Ilaahooda, oo sidaas daraaddeed waa inay quduus ahaadaan.

⁶they are holy to their God, and they pollute not the name of their God, for the fire-offerings of Jehovah, bread of their God, they are bringing near, and have been holy.

⁷Waa inayan guursan naag dhillo ah ama mid la nijaaseeyey, oo waa inayan guursan naag la furay, waayo, wadaadku quduus buu Ilaahiis u yahay.

⁷`A woman, a harlot, or polluted, they do not take, and a woman cast out from her husband they do not take, for he [is] holy to his God;

⁸Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed waa inaad isaga quduus ka dhigtaa, waayo, isagu wuxuu bixiyaa cuntada Ilaahaaga, oo isagu waa inuu quduus kuu ahaadaa, waayo, anba quduus baan ahay, anigoo ah Rabbiga quduus idinka dhiga.

⁸and thou hast sanctified him, for the bread of thy God he is bringing near; he is holy to thee; for holy [am] I, Jehovah, sanctifying you.

⁹Oo wadaad kasta haddii ay gabadhiisu isnijaasayso oo ay dhillowdo, iyadu nijaas bay ka dhigaysaa aabbaheed, oo waa in dab lagu gubaa.

⁹`And a daughter of any priest when she polluteth herself by going a-whoring — her father she is polluting; with fire she is burnt.

¹⁰Oo kii wadaadka sare walaalihiis ka dhex ah, oo madaxiisa lagu shubay saliiddii subkidda, oo ah kan loo daahiriyey inuu xidho dharka quduuska ah waa inaanay timaha madaxiisu arbushnaan ama uusan dharkiisa dildillaacin.

¹⁰`And the high priest of his brethren, on whose head is poured the anointing oil, and hath consecrated his hand to put on the garments, his head doth not uncover, nor rend his garments,

¹¹Oo weliba waa inuusan meyd gudaha ugu gelin, oo xataa waa inuusan isu nijaasayn aabbihiis iyo hooyadiis toona.

¹¹nor beside any dead person doth he come; for his father and for his mother he doth not defile himself;

¹²Oo waa inuusan dibadda uga bixin meesha quduuska ah, waana inuusan nijaasayn meesha quduuska ah ee Ilaahiisa, waayo, isaga waxaa kor saaran taajkii saliidda subkidda ee Ilaahiisa, waayo, aniga ayaa Rabbiga ah.

¹²nor from the sanctuary doth he go out, nor doth he pollute the sanctuary of his God, for the separation of the anointing oil of his God [is] on him; I [am] Jehovah.

¹³Oo isagu waa inuu guursadaa gabadh bikrad ah.

¹³`And he taketh a wife in her virginity;

¹⁴Waa inuusan marnaba guursan carmal, ama naag la furay, ama naag nijaasowday oo dhillo ah, laakiinse waa inuu guursadaa gabadh bikrad ah oo dadkiisa ka dhalatay.

¹⁴widow, or cast out, or polluted one — a harlot — these he doth not take, but a virgin of his own people he doth take [for] a wife,

¹⁵Oo waa inuusan dhashiisa ku dhex nijaasayn dadkiisa, waayo, aniga ayaa ah Rabbiga isaga quduus ka dhiga.

¹⁵and he doth not pollute his seed among his people; for I [am] Jehovah, sanctifying him.`

¹⁶Markaasaa Rabbigu Muuse la hadlay oo wuxuu ku yidhi,

¹⁶And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,

¹⁷Haaruun la hadal, oo waxaad ku tidhaahdaa, Tan iyo ab ka ab ku alla kii farcankaaga ahu, isagoo iin leh, yuusan u dhowaan inuu cuntada Ilaahiisa bixiyo.

¹⁷`Speak unto Aaron, saying, No man of thy seed to their generations in whom there is blemish doth draw near to bring near the bread of his God,

¹⁸Waayo, nin alla ninkuu yahayba, kii iin lahu waa inuusan u soo dhowaan, kaasoo ah ninkii indha la' ama curyaan ah, ama kii sankiisu faruuran yahay, ama jidhkiisu leeyahay wax dheeraad ah,

¹⁸for no man in whom [is] blemish doth draw near — a man blind, or lame or dwarfed, or enlarged,

¹⁹ama ninkii cag jaban, ama gacan jaban,

¹⁹or a man in whom there is a breach in the foot, or a breach in the hand,

²⁰ama kii tuur leh, ama kii cilin ah, ama kii ishiisu iin leedahay, ama kii cambaar qaba, ama kii cadho qaba, ama kii xiniinyihiisu burbureen.

²⁰or hump-backed, or a dwarf, or with a mixture in his eye, or a scurvy person, or scabbed, or broken-testicled.

²¹Wadaadka Haaruun ah nin alla ninkii farcankiisa ka mid ahu isagoo iin leh waa inuusan u soo dhowaan inuu bixiyo qurbaannada Rabbiga oo dabka lagu sameeyo, waayo, isagu iin buu leeyahay, oo waa inuusan u soo dhowaan inuu cuntada Ilaahiisa bixiyo.

²¹`No man in whom is blemish (of the seed of Aaron the priest) doth come nigh to bring near the fire-offerings of Jehovah; blemish [is] in him; the bread of his God he doth not come nigh to bring near.

²²Isagu waa inuu cunaa cuntada Ilaahiisa, tan quduuska ah iyo tan ugu wada quduusanba.

²²`Bread of his God — of the most holy things, and of the holy things — he doth eat;

²³Laakiinse waa inuusan meesha daaha leh gelin, ama uusan meesha allabariga u dhowaan, si uusan u nijaasayn meelahayga quduuska ah, maxaa yeelay, isagu iin buu leeyahay, oo aniga ayaa ah Rabbiga iyaga quduus ka dhiga.Muuse sidaasuu kula hadlay Haaruun iyo wiilashiisii, iyo dadkii reer binu Israa'iil oo dhanba.

²³only, unto the vail he doth not enter, and unto the altar he doth not draw nigh; for blemish [is] in him; and he doth not pollute My sanctuaries; for I [am] Jehovah, sanctifying them.`

²⁴Muuse sidaasuu kula hadlay Haaruun iyo wiilashiisii, iyo dadkii reer binu Israa'iil oo dhanba.

²⁴And Moses speaketh unto Aaron, and unto his sons, and unto all the sons of Israel.
