Leviticus 4
1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
Entonces el Señor le dijo a Moisés:
2 Speak to the children of Israel, saying, If a soul shall sin unwillingly before the Lord, in any of the commandments of the Lord concerning things which he ought not to do, and shall do some of them;
“Dile a los israelitas que estas son las reglas para manejar los casos de aquellos que pecan involuntariamente contra alguno de los mandamientos del Señor y hacen lo que no está permitido.
3 if the anointed priest sin so as to cause the people to sin, then shall he bring for his sin, which he has sinned, an unblemished calf of the herd to the Lord for his sin.
“Si es el Sumo Sacerdote quien peca y trae la culpa sobre todos, debe presentar al Señor un novillo sin defectos como ofrenda por su pecado.
4 And he shall bring the calf to the door of the tabernacle of witness before the Lord, and he shall put his hand on the head of the calf before the Lord, and shall kill the calf in the presence of the Lord.
Debes llevar el toro a la entrada del Tabernáculo de Reunión ante el Señor, poner su mano sobre su cabeza y matarlo ante el Señor.
5 And the anointed priest who has been consecrated having received of the blood of the calf, shall then bring it into the tabernacle of witness.
Entonces el sumo sacerdote llevará parte de la sangre del toro al Tabernáculo de Reunión.
6 And the priest shall dip his finger into the blood, and sprinkle of the blood seven times before the Lord, over against the holy veil.
El sumo sacerdote mojará su dedo en la sangre y rociará un poco de ella siete veces delante el Señor, frente del velo del santuario.
7 And the priest shall put of the blood of the calf on the horns of the altar of the compound incense which is before the Lord, which is in the tabernacle of witness; and all the blood of the calf shall he pour out by the foot of the altar of whole burnt offerings, which is by the doors of the tabernacle of witness.
El sacerdote pondrá un poco de sangre sobre los cuernos del altar de incienso aromático que está ante el Señor en el Tabernáculo de Reunión. El resto de la sangre del toro la derramará en el fondo del altar de los holocaustos, a la entrada del Tabernáculo de Reunión.
8 and all the fat of the calf of the sin-offering shall he take off from it; the fat that covers the inwards, and all the fat that is on the inwards,
Entonces quitará toda la grasa del toro de la ofrenda por el pecado: toda la grasa que cubre las entrañas,
9 and the two kidneys, and the fat that is upon them, which is on the thighs, and the caul that is on the liver with the kidneys, them shall he take away,
ambos riñones con la grasa en ellos por los lomos, y la mejor parte del hígado, que debe eliminar junto con los riñones
10 as he takes it away from the calf of the sacrifice of peace-offering, so shall the priest offer it on the altar of burnt offering.
de la misma manera que la grasa se quita del toro de la ofrenda de paz. Entonces el sacerdote quemará esto en el altar de la ofrenda quemada.
11 And [they shall take] the skin of the calf, and all his flesh with the head and the extremities and the belly and the dung,
“Pero la piel del toro, toda su carne, cabeza, patas, interiores y desechos,
12 and they shall carry out the whole calf out of the camp into a clean place, where they pour out the ashes, and they shall consume it there on wood with fire: it shall be burnt on the ashes poured out.
y todo el resto, tiene que llevarlo fuera del campamento a un lugar que esté ceremonialmente limpio, donde se arrojen las cenizas, y debe quemarlo en un fuego de leña allí en el montón de cenizas.
13 And if the whole congregation of Israel trespass ignorantly, and a thing should escape the notice of the congregation, and they should do one thing forbidden of any of the commands of the Lord, which ought not to be done, and should transgress:
“Si todo el pueblo de Israel se extravía sin querer, y aunque no sean conscientes de hacer lo que no está permitido por ninguno de los mandamientos del Señor, siguen siendo todos culpables.
14 and the sin wherein they have sinned should become known to them, then shall the congregation bring an unblemished calf of the herd for a sin-offering, and they shall bring it to the doors of the tabernacle of witness.
Cuando se den cuenta de su pecado, deben traer un toro joven como ofrenda por el pecado y presentarlo ante el Tabernáculo de Reunión.
15 And the elders of the congregation shall lay their hands on the head of the calf before the Lord, and they shall kill the calf before the Lord.
Los ancianos de Israel pondrán sus manos sobre su cabeza y lo matarán delante el Señor.
16 And the anointed priest shall bring in of the blood of the calf into the tabernacle of witness.
Entonces el sumo sacerdote llevará parte de la sangre del toro al Tabernáculo de Reunión.
17 And the priest shall dip his finger into some of the blood of the calf, and shall sprinkle it seven times before the Lord, in front of the veil of the sanctuary.
Mojará su dedo en la sangre y lo rociará siete veces ante el Señor delante del velo.
18 And the priest shall put some of the blood on the horns of the altar of the incense of composition, which is before the Lord, which is in the tabernacle of witness; and he shall pour out all the blood at the bottom of the altar of whole burnt offerings, which is by the door of the tabernacle of witness.
Pondrá un poco de sangre en los cuernos del altar que está delante del Señor en el Tabernáculo de Reunión. Luego derramará el resto de la sangre del toro en el fondo del altar de los holocaustos a la entrada del Tabernáculo de Reunión.
19 And he shall take away all the fat from it, and shall offer it up on the altar.
Luego le quitará toda la grasa al toro y lo quemará en el altar.
20 And he shall do to the calf as he did to the calf of the sin-offering, so shall it be done; and the priest shall make atonement for them, and the trespass shall be forgiven them.
Ofrecerá este toro de la misma manera que lo hizo para la ofrenda por el pecado. Así es como el sacerdote los expiará, y serán perdonados.
21 And they shall carry forth the calf whole without the camp, and they shall burn the calf as they burnt the former calf: it is the sin-offering of the congregation.
Entonces tomará el toro fuera del campamento y lo quemará, tal y como quemó el toro anteriormente mencionado. Es la ofrenda por el pecado de todo el pueblo.
22 And if a ruler sin, and break one of all the commands of the Lord his God, [doing the thing] which ought not to be done, unwillingly, and shall sin and trespass,
“Si un líder peca involuntariamente y hace lo que no está permitido por ninguno de los mandamientos del Señor su Dios, es culpable.
23 and his trespass wherein he has sinned, be known to him, then shall he offer for his gift a kid of the goats, a male without blemish.
Cuando se dé cuenta de su pecado, debe traer un macho cabrío sin defectos como ofrenda.
24 And he shall lay his hand on the head of the kid, and they shall kill it in the place where they kill the [victims for] whole burnt offerings before the Lord; it is a sin-offering.
Debe poner su mano en la cabeza del cabrito y matarlo en el lugar donde se presenta la ofrenda quemada ante el Señor. Es una ofrenda por el pecado.
25 And the priest shall put some of the blood of the sin-offering with his finger on the horns of the altar of whole burnt offering; and he shall pour out all its blood by the bottom of the altar of whole burnt offerings.
Entonces el sacerdote debe tomar parte de la sangre de la ofrenda por el pecado con su dedo y ponerla en los cuernos del altar de la ofrenda quemada, y derramar el resto de la sangre en la base del altar.
26 And he shall offer up all his fat on the altar, as the fat of the sacrifice of peace-offering; and the priest shall make atonement for him concerning his sin, and it shall be forgiven him.
Quemará toda su grasa en el altar como la grasa de las ofrendas de paz. De esta manera el sacerdote expiará el pecado del hombre y será perdonado.
27 And if a soul of the people of the land should sin unwillingly, in doing a thing [contrary to] any of the commandments of the Lord, which ought not to be done, and shall transgress,
“Si cualquier otro israelita peca involuntariamente y hace lo que no está permitido por ninguno de los mandamientos del Señor su Dios, es culpable.
28 and his sin should be known to him, wherein he has sinned, then shall he bring a kid of the goats, a female without blemish shall he bring for his sin, which he has sinned.
Cuando se dé cuenta de su pecado, debe traer una cabra sin defectos como ofrenda por ese pecado.
29 And he shall lay his hand on the head of his sin-offering, and they shall kill the kid of the sin-offering in the place where they kill the [victims for] whole burnt offerings.
Debe poner su mano en la cabeza de la ofrenda por el pecado y matarla en el lugar del holocausto.
30 And the priest shall take of its blood with his finger, and shall put it on the horns of the altar of whole burnt offerings; and all its blood he shall pour forth by the foot of the altar.
Entonces el sacerdote debe tomar un poco de su sangre con su dedo y ponerla en los cuernos del altar de la ofrenda quemada, y derramar el resto de la sangre en la base del altar.
31 And he shall take away all the fat, as the fat is taken away from the sacrifice of peace-offering, and the priest shall offer it on the altar for a smell of sweet savour to the Lord; and the priest shall make atonement for him, and [his sin] shall be forgiven him.
Le quitará toda su grasa como la grasa de las ofrendas de paz y la quemará en el altar y será aceptada por el Señor. De esta manera el sacerdote expiará el pecado del hombre y será perdonado.
32 And if he should offer a lamb for his sin-offering, he shall offer it a female without blemish.
“Si trae un cordero como ofrenda por el pecado, debe traer una hembra sin defectos.
33 And he shall lay his hand on the head of the sin-offerings, and they shall kill it in the place where they kill the [victims for] whole burnt offerings.
Debe poner su mano en la cabeza de la ofrenda por el pecado y matarla como ofrenda por el pecado en el lugar donde se hace el holocausto.
34 And the priest shall take of the blood of the sin-offering with his finger, and shall put it on the horns of the altar of whole burnt offerings, and he shall pour out all its blood by the bottom of the altar of whole burnt offering.
Entonces el sacerdote debe tomar un poco de su sangre con su dedo y ponerla en los cuernos del altar de la ofrenda quemada, y derramar el resto de la sangre en la base del altar.
35 And he shall take away all his fat, as the fat of the lamb of the sacrifice of peace-offering is taken away, and the priest shall put it on the altar for a whole burnt offering to the Lord; and the priest shall make atonement for him for the sin which he sinned, and it shall be forgiven him.
Le quitará toda su grasa como la grasa del cordero se quita de las ofrendas de paz y la quemará en el altar y será aceptada por el Señor. De esta forma el sacerdote expiará el pecado del hombre, y será perdonado”.
