Leviticus 20
1 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
Yahvé habló a Moisés, diciendo:
2 Moreover, thou shall say to the sons of Israel, Whoever he is of the sons of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn in Israel, who gives of his seed to Molech, he shall surely be put to death. The people of the land shall stone him with stones.
“Además, dirás a los hijos de Israel: ‘Cualquiera de los hijos de Israel, o de los extranjeros que vivan como forasteros en Israel, que entregue alguno de sus vástagos a Moloc, morirá. El pueblo del país apedreará a esa persona con piedras.
3 I also will set my face against that man, and will cut him off from among his people, because he has given of his seed to Molech, to defile my sanctuary, and to profane my holy name.
Yo también pondré mi rostro contra esa persona, y la cortaré de entre su pueblo, porque ha dado de su descendencia a Moloc, para profanar mi santuario, y para profanar mi santo nombre.
4 And if the people at the land do at all hide their eyes from that man, when he gives of his seed to Molech, and do not put him to death,
Si todos los pueblos de la tierra esconden sus ojos de esa persona cuando da de su descendencia a Moloc, y no le dan muerte,
5 then I will set my face against that man, and against his family, and will cut him off, and all who play the harlot after him, to play the harlot with Molech, from among their people.
entonces yo pondré mi rostro contra ese hombre y contra su familia, y lo cortaré de entre su pueblo, y a todos los que se prostituyen después de él para prostituirse con Moloc.
6 And the soul that turns to those who have familiar spirits, and to the wizards, to play the harlot after them, I will even set my face against that soul, and will cut him off from among his people.
“‘La persona que se vuelve a los que son médiums y magos, para jugar a la prostitución después de ellos, incluso pondré mi cara contra esa persona, y la cortaré de entre su pueblo.
7 Sanctify yourselves therefore, and become ye holy, for I am Jehovah your God.
“‘Santificaos, pues, y sed santos, porque yo soy Yahvé, vuestro Dios.
8 And ye shall keep my statutes, and do them. I am Jehovah who sanctifies you.
Guardarán mis estatutos y los pondrán en práctica. Yo soy Yahvé, que os santifico.
9 For he who curses his father or his mother shall surely be put to death. He has cursed his father or his mother; his blood shall be upon him.
“‘Porque todo el que maldiga a su padre o a su madre será condenado a muerte. Ha maldecido a su padre o a su madre. Su sangre caerá sobre él.
10 And the man who commits adultery with another man's wife, even he who commits adultery with his neighbor's wife, the adulterer and the adulteress shall surely be put to death.
“‘El hombre que comete adulterio con la mujer de otro hombre, incluso el que comete adulterio con la mujer de su prójimo, el adúltero y la adúltera serán condenados a muerte.
11 And the man who lies with his father's wife has uncovered his father's nakedness. Both of them shall surely be put to death, their blood shall be upon them.
“‘El hombre que se acuesta con la mujer de su padre ha descubierto la desnudez de su padre. Ambos serán condenados a muerte. Su sangre será sobre ellos.
12 And if a man lies with his daughter-in-law, both of them shall surely be put to death. They have wrought perversion. Their blood shall be upon them.
“‘Si un hombre se acuesta con su nuera, ambos serán condenados a muerte. Han cometido una perversión. Su sangre caerá sobre ellos.
13 And if a man lies with a man, as with a woman, both of them have committed abomination. They shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.
“‘Si un hombre se acuesta con un varón como con una mujer, ambos han cometido una abominación. Serán condenados a muerte. Su sangre será sobre ellos mismos.
14 And if a man takes a wife and her mother, it is wickedness. They shall be burnt with fire, both he and they, that there be no wickedness among you.
“‘Si un hombre toma una esposa y a su madre, es una maldad. Serán quemados con fuego, tanto él como ellas, para que no haya maldad entre vosotros.
15 And if a man lies with a beast, he shall surely be put to death, and ye shall kill the beast.
“‘Si un hombre se acuesta con un animal, será condenado a muerte; y matarás al animal.
16 And if a woman approaches to any beast, and lies down with it, thou shall kill the woman and the beast. They shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.
“‘Si una mujer se acerca a un animal y se acuesta con él, matarás a la mujer y al animal. Serán condenados a muerte. Su sangre caerá sobre ellos.
17 And if a man shall take his sister, his father's daughter, or his mother's daughter, and see her nakedness, and she sees his nakedness, it is a shameful thing, and they shall be cut off in the sight of the sons of their people. He has uncovered his sister's nakedness; he shall bear his iniquity.
“‘Si un hombre toma a su hermana — la hija de su padre o de su madre — y ve su desnudez, y ella ve la suya, es cosa vergonzosa. Serán cortados a la vista de los hijos de su pueblo. Él ha descubierto la desnudez de su hermana. Llevará su iniquidad.
18 And if a man shall lie with a woman having her sickness, and shall uncover her nakedness, he has made naked her fountain, and she has uncovered the fountain of her blood. And both of them shall be cut off from among their people.
“‘Si un hombre se acuesta con una mujer que tiene su menstruación y descubre su desnudez, él ha desnudado su fuente, y ella ha descubierto la fuente de su sangre. Ambos serán cortados de entre su pueblo.
19 And thou shall not uncover the nakedness of thy mother's sister, nor of thy father's sister, for he has made naked his near kin. They shall bear their iniquity.
“‘No descubrirás la desnudez de la hermana de tu madre, ni la de la hermana de tu padre, porque ha desnudado a su pariente cercano. Ellos cargarán con su iniquidad.
20 And if a man shall lie with his uncle's wife, he has uncovered his uncle's nakedness. They shall bear their sin; they shall die childless.
Si un hombre se acuesta con la mujer de su tío, ha descubierto la desnudez de su tío. Ellos cargarán con su pecado. Morirán sin hijos.
21 And if a man shall take his brother's wife, it is impurity. He has uncovered his brother's nakedness; they shall be childless.
“‘Si un hombre toma la mujer de su hermano, es una impureza. Ha descubierto la desnudez de su hermano. No tendrán hijos.
22 Ye shall therefore keep all my statutes, and all my ordinances, and do them, that the land, where I bring you to dwell in it, not vomit you out.
“‘Por lo tanto, guardaréis todos mis estatutos y todas mis ordenanzas, y los pondréis en práctica, para que la tierra donde os traigo a vivir no os vomite.
23 And ye shall not walk in the customs of the nation which I cast out before you, for they did all these things, and therefore I abhorred them.
No andarás en las costumbres de la nación que estoy echando delante de ti; porque ellos hicieron todas estas cosas, y por eso los aborrecí.
24 But I have said to you, Ye shall inherit their land, and I will give it to you to possess it, a land flowing with milk and honey. I am Jehovah your God, who has separated you from the peoples.
Pero a vosotros os he dicho: “Heredaréis su tierra, y os la daré para que la poseáis, una tierra que mana leche y miel”. Yo soy Yahvé, tu Dios, que te ha separado de los pueblos.
25 Ye shall therefore make a distinction between the clean beast and the unclean, and between the unclean fowl and the clean. And ye shall not make your souls abominable by beast, or by bird, or by anything with which the ground teems, which I have separated from you as unclean.
“‘Por tanto, distinguiréis entre el animal limpio y el impuro, y entre las aves impuras y las limpias. No os haréis abominables con ningún animal, ni con ninguna ave, ni con nada de lo que abunda en la tierra, que yo he separado de vosotros como impuro para vosotros.
26 And ye shall be holy to me, for I, Jehovah, am holy, and have set you apart from the peoples, that ye should be mine.
Seréis santos para mí, porque yo, Yahvé, soy santo, y os he apartado de los pueblos para que seáis míos.
27 A man or also a woman who has a familiar spirit, or that is a wizard, shall surely be put to death. They shall stone them with stones; their blood shall be upon them.
“‘El hombre o la mujer que sea un médium o un mago serán condenados a muerte. Serán apedreados. Su sangre será sobre ellos”.
