< Leviticus 17 >
1 Then the LORD said to Moses,
Alò, SENYÈ a te pale avèk Moïse. Li te di:
2 “Speak to Aaron, his sons, and all the Israelites and tell them this is what the LORD has commanded:
“Pale avèk Aaron, avèk fis li yo e ak tout fis Israël yo. Di yo: ‘Se sa ke SENYÈ a te kòmande e te di:
3 ‘Anyone from the house of Israel who slaughters an ox, a lamb, or a goat in the camp or outside of it
“Nenpòt moun ki sòti lakay Israël ki touye yon bèf oswa yon jenn mouton, oswa yon kabrit nan kan an, oswa touye li deyò kan an,
4 instead of bringing it to the entrance to the Tent of Meeting to present it as an offering to the LORD before His tabernacle—that man shall incur bloodguilt. He has shed blood and must be cut off from among his people.
epi ki pa t pote li nan pòtay tant asanble a pou prezante li kòm yon ofrann a SENYÈ a devan tabènak SENYÈ a, koupabilite vèse san an va kontwole sou moun sila a. Li te vèse san e moun sa a va koupe retire de pèp li a.
5 For this reason the Israelites will bring to the LORD the sacrifices they have been offering in the open fields. They are to bring them to the priest at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting and offer them as sacrifices of peace to the LORD.
Rezon pou sa a se pou pèmèt fis Israël yo pote sakrifis ke y ap fè nan gran chan yo, pou yo kapab pote yo antre vè SENYÈ a, nan pòtay tant asanble a vè prèt la, e pou fè sakrifis yo kòm sakrifis ofrann lapè bay SENYÈ a.
6 The priest will then sprinkle the blood on the altar of the LORD at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting and burn the fat as a pleasing aroma to the LORD.
Prèt la va flite san an sou lotèl SENYÈ a nan pòtay tant asanble a, e li va ofri grès la nan lafimen kòm yon bagay santi bon bay SENYÈ a.
7 They must no longer offer their sacrifices to the goat demons to which they have prostituted themselves. This will be a permanent statute for them for the generations to come.’
Yo p ap fè sakrifis yo ankò bay kabrit a zidòl demon avèk sila yo fè jwèt pwostitisyon yo. Sa se yon règleman pou tout jenerasyon pa yo.”’”
8 Tell them that if anyone from the house of Israel or any foreigner living among them offers a burnt offering or a sacrifice
“Epi ou va di yo: ‘Nenpòt moun lakay Israël la, oswa etranje ki rete pami nou yo, ki ofri yon ofrann brile oswa yon sakrifis,
9 but does not bring it to the entrance to the Tent of Meeting to sacrifice it to the LORD, that man must be cut off from his people.
epi ki pa mennen li nan pòtay tant asanble a pou ofri li bay SENYÈ a, moun sila a osi va koupe retire de pèp li a.
10 If anyone from the house of Israel or a foreigner living among them eats any blood, I will set My face against that person and cut him off from among his people.
“‘Epi nenpòt moun lakay Israël la, oswa etranje ki rete pami yo, ki bwè nenpòt san, Mwen va mete figi Mwen kont moun sa a ki bwè san an, e li va koupe retire de pèp li a.’
11 For the life of the flesh is in the blood, and I have given it to you to make atonement for your souls upon the altar; for it is the blood that makes atonement for the soul.
Paske vi a chè a se nan san an, e Mwen te bannou li sou lotèl la pou fè ekspiyasyon pou nanm nou; paske se san li ye, akoz lavi ki fè ekspiyasyon an.
12 Therefore I say to the Israelites, ‘None of you may eat blood, nor may any foreigner living among you eat blood.’
Pou sa, Mwen te di a fis Israël yo: ‘Pèsòn pami nou pa pou bwè san, ni okenn etranje ki rete pami nou p ap kab bwè san.’
13 And if any Israelite or foreigner living among them hunts down a wild animal or bird that may be eaten, he must drain its blood and cover it with dirt.
“Pou sa, lè yon moun pami fis Israël yo oswa nan etranje ki rete pami yo, ki nan fè lachas kenbe yon bèt oswa yon zwazo ki kapab manje, li va vide san li e kouvri li avèk tè.
14 For the life of all flesh is its blood. Therefore I have told the Israelites, ‘You must not eat the blood of any living thing, because the life of all flesh is its blood; whoever eats it must be cut off.’
Paske lavi tout chè, se san li ki lavi li. Pou sa, Mwen te di a fis Israël yo: “Nou pa pou bwè san de okenn nan chè yo, paske lavi tout chè se san li. Nenpòt moun ki bwè li, va koupe retire.
15 And any person, whether native or foreigner, who eats anything found dead or mauled by wild beasts must wash his clothes and bathe with water, and he will be unclean until evening; then he will be clean.
“Lè yon moun manje yon bèt ki mouri oswa ki chire pa lòt bèt kit li se yon moun peyi a, oswa yon etranje, li va lave rad li, li va benyen nan dlo, e li va rete pa pwòp jis rive nan aswè. Konsa, li va vin pwòp.
16 But if he does not wash his clothes and bathe himself, then he shall bear his iniquity.”
Men si li pa lave oswa benyen kò li, li va pote koupabilite li.”
