Leviticus 18
1 Then the LORD said to Moses,
LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Moses
2 “Speak to the Israelites and tell them: I am the LORD your God.
elan fahkang nu sin mwet Israel, “Nga pa LEUM GOD lowos.
3 You must not follow the practices of the land of Egypt, where you used to live, and you must not follow the practices of the land of Canaan, into which I am bringing you. You must not walk in their customs.
Nik kowos oru ouiya lun mwet Egypt, yen ma kowos tuh muta we meet, ku ouiya lun mwet in acn Canaan, yen su nga ac us kowos nu we.
4 You are to practice My judgments and keep My statutes by walking in them. I am the LORD your God.
Akos ma sap luk, ac oru ma nga sapkin. Nga pa LEUM GOD lowos.
5 Keep My statutes and My judgments, for the man who does these things will live by them. I am the LORD.
Fahsr tukun oakwuk ac ma sap su nga sot nu suwos. Kowos fin oru ouinge, kowos ac fah moul. Nga pa LEUM GOD.”
6 None of you are to approach any close relative to have sexual relations. I am the LORD.
Nikmet orek kosro nu sin kutena mwet in sou lowos.
7 You must not expose the nakedness of your father by having sexual relations with your mother. She is your mother; you must not have sexual relations with her.
Nikmet akmwekinye papa tomom ke kom orek kosro nu sin nina kiom. Kom fah tiana akmwekinye nina kiom sifacna.
8 You must not have sexual relations with your father’s wife; it would dishonor your father.
Nikmet akmwekinye papa tomom ke kom orek kosro nu sin kutena sin mutan kial saya.
9 You must not have sexual relations with your sister, either your father’s daughter or your mother’s daughter, whether she was born in the same home or elsewhere.
Nik kom orek kosro nu sin tamtael lom, ku nu sin acn nutin papa tomom ku nina kiom saya — el finne wi kom matula in lohm sum, ku tia.
10 You must not have sexual relations with your son’s daughter or your daughter’s daughter, for that would shame your family.
Nikmet orek kosro nu sin acn nutin wen nutum ku acn nutin acn nutum — ma inge ac fah sie mwe akmwekin nu sum.
11 You must not have sexual relations with the daughter of your father’s wife, born to your father; she is your sister.
Nikmet orek kosro nu sin acn nutin mutan kien papa tomom — el ma pacna wiom.
12 You must not have sexual relations with your father’s sister; she is your father’s close relative.
Kom fah tiana orek kosro nu sin tamtael lun papa tomom, mweyen el ikwen pacna papa tomom.
13 You must not have sexual relations with your mother’s sister, for she is your mother’s close relative.
Kom fah tiana orek kosro nu sin tamtael lun nina kiom, mweyen el ikwen pacna nina kiom.
14 You must not dishonor your father’s brother by approaching his wife to have sexual relations with her; she is your aunt.
Nik kom orek kosro nu sin mutan kien tamulel lun papa tomom — el oapana nina se kiom.
15 You must not have sexual relations with your daughter-in-law. She is your son’s wife; you are not to have sexual relations with her.
Nik kom orek kosro nu sin mutan kien wen nutum,
16 You must not have sexual relations with your brother’s wife; that would shame your brother.
ku nu sin mutan kien tamulel lom.
17 You must not have sexual relations with both a woman and her daughter. You are not to marry her son’s daughter or her daughter’s daughter and have sexual relations with her. They are close relatives; it is depraved.
Nik kom orek kosro nu sin sie mutan nutin sie mutan su kom orek kosro nu se meet, ku nu sin tulik nutin natu. Sahp elos ac sou lom — ac tuh pwanang kom orek pukasr.
18 You must not take your wife’s sister as a rival wife and have sexual relations with her while your wife is still alive.
Nik kom payuk sin tamtael lun mutan kiom, ke lusenna pacl mutan kiom el srakna moul.
19 You must not approach a woman to have sexual relations with her during her menstrual period.
Nik kom orek kosro nu sin kutena mutan su oasr ke musen malem lal, mweyen el tia nasnas.
20 You must not lie carnally with your neighbor’s wife and thus defile yourself with her.
Nik kom orek kosro nu sin mutan kien siena mwet. Ma se inge ac fah akfohkfokye kom.
21 You must not give any of your children to be sacrificed to Molech, for you must not profane the name of your God. I am the LORD.
Nikmet sang kutena sin tulik nutum in kisakinyuk nu sin god Molech, mweyen ouiya sacn ac aklusrongtenye Inen LEUM GOD.
22 You must not lie with a man as with a woman; that is an abomination.
Wangin sie mukul ac fah oru inkanek in kosro nu sin siepah mukul — God El kwase ouiya sacn.
23 You must not lie carnally with any animal, thus defiling yourself with it; a woman must not stand before an animal to mate with it; that is a perversion.
Wangin mukul ku mutan ac fah orek kosro nu sin kutena ma orakrak. Kain in elah fohkfok inge ac fah akfohkfokye kom.
24 Do not defile yourselves by any of these practices, for by all these things the nations I am driving out before you have defiled themselves.
Nik kowos akfohkfokye kowos sifacna ke kain in ouiya inge, tuh pa inge ouiya ma akfohkfokye mwet pegan su muta in acn inge meet liki kowos, su LEUM GOD El ac lusak tuh kowos in ku in utyak nu in acn selos.
25 Even the land has become defiled, so I am punishing it for its sin, and the land will vomit out its inhabitants.
Orekma lalos akfohkfokyela acn uh, ouinge LEUM GOD El kalyei acn uh, ac oru tuh acn uh in wotela mwet su tuh muta we.
26 But you are to keep My statutes and ordinances, and you must not commit any of these abominations—neither your native-born nor the foreigner who lives among you.
Tusruktu kowos, mwet Israel oayapa mwetsac nukewa su muta inmasrlowos, fah liyaung ma nga sapkin ac oakwuk luk, ac tia oru kutena sin ouiya koluk inge.
27 For the men who were in the land before you committed all these abominations, and the land has become defiled.
(Mweyen mwet ma tuh muta fin acn se inge meet liki kowos, elos tuh oru ouiya koluk inge, pwanang kolukla acn se inge.)
28 So if you defile the land, it will vomit you out as it spewed out the nations before you.
Fin ouinge, acn uh ac fah tia siskowosla, oana ke el tuh sisla mwet pegan su muta we meet liki kowos.
29 Therefore anyone who commits any of these abominations must be cut off from among his people.
Kowos etu lah kutena mwet su oru kutena sin ouiya koluk inge ac fah tia sifil pangpang sie sin mwet lun God.
30 You must keep My charge not to practice any of the abominable customs that were practiced before you, so that you do not defile yourselves by them. I am the LORD your God.”
Ac LEUM GOD El fahk, “Akos oakwuk ma nga sot, ac tia fahsr tukun ouiya lun mwet su tuh muta fin acn se inge meet liki kowos, ac nikmet oru kutena sin ma inge in akfohkfokye kowos sifacna. Nga LEUM GOD lowos.”
