Leviticus 20
1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
SENYÈ a te pale avèk Moïse e te di:
2 You shall speak these things to the sons of Israel: A man among the sons Israel, or among the newcomers who live in Israel, if he will have given from his seed to the idol Moloch, he shall be put to death: the people of the land shall stone him.
“Ou va osi di a fis Israël yo: ‘Nenpòt moun nan fis Israël yo, oswa nan etranje ki rete an Israël yo ki bay nenpòt nan pitit li yo a Moloc, li va vrèman vin mete a lanmò. Pèp peyi a va lapide moun sa a avèk kout wòch.
3 And I will set my face against him. And I will cut him down from the midst of his people, because he has given from his seed to Moloch, and he has contaminated my Sanctuary, and polluted my holy name.
Mwen va osi mete figi Mwen kont moun sa a. Mwen va koupe retire li de pèp li a, akoz li te bay nan pitit li bay Moloc pou konwonpi sanktyè Mwen an, e degrade non sen Mwen an.
4 But if the people of the land, having been neglectful and holding little regard for my authority, release the man who has given from his seed to Moloch, and they are not willing to kill him,
Men si moun nan peyi a ta janm tolere moun sa a lè li bay nan pitit li yo bay Moloc, e pa mete l a lanmò,
5 I will set my face over that man and over his kindred, and I will cut down both him and all who consented with him to fornicate with Moloch, from the midst of their people.
alò, Mwen menm va mete figi Mwen kont moun sila a ak kont fanmi li, e Mwen va koupe retire de pèp li a; non sèlman li menm, men tout sila ki jwe pwostitiye dèyè li yo, lè yo jwe pwostitiye dèyè Moloc.
6 The soul who will have turned aside to astrologers and soothsayers, and who will have fornicated with them, I will set my face against him, and I will destroy him from the midst of his people.
“‘Epi pou moun ki vire vè moun k ap fè kontak ak mò yo, ki swiv lespri dyab yo, pou yo jwe pwostitiye avèk yo, Mwen va osi mete figi Mwen kont moun sa a e Mwen va koupe retire li de pèp li a.
7 Be sanctified and be holy, for I am the Lord your God.
“‘Konsa, nou va konsakre nou menm e nou va rete sen, paske Mwen se SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an.
8 Observe my precepts, and do them. I am the Lord, who sanctifies you.
“‘Nou va kenbe règleman Mwen yo, e nou va swiv yo. Mwen se SENYÈ a ki fè nou sen an.
9 Whoever curses his father or mother shall die a death; he has cursed his father and mother. So let his blood be upon him.
“‘Si yon moun anmède papa li oswa manman li, li va vrèman vin mete a lanmò. Li te anmède papa li oswa manman li. Koupabilite san li rete sou li.
10 If anyone will have committed sexual acts with the wife of another, or will have perpetrated adultery with his neighbor’s spouse, they shall die a death, both the adulterer and the adulteress.
“‘Si yon mesye fè adiltè avèk madanm a yon lòt, menm sila ki fè adiltè avèk madanm zanmi li an, adiltè la avèk fanm adiltè la va vrèman vin mete a lanmò.
11 Whoever will have slept with his stepmother, or will have uncovered the shame of his father, they shall both die a death. So let their blood be upon them.
“‘Si yon nonm vin kouche avèk madanm a papa li, li te dekouvri nidite a papa li. Yo tou de va vin mete a lanmò. Koupabilite san yo rete sou yo.
12 If any man will have slept with his daughter-in-law, both shall die, for they have acted according to wickedness. So let their blood be upon them.
“‘Si gen yon nonm ki kouche avèk bèlfi li, tou de va vin mete a lanmò. Yo te fè ensès; koupabilite san an sou yo.
13 If any man has slept with a male in place of sexual intercourse with a female, both have committed a nefarious act, they shall die a death. So let their blood be upon them.
“‘Si gen yon gason ki kouche avèk yon lòt gason, menm jan ke li ta kouche avèk yon fanm, tou de te fè yon zak abominab. Yo va vrèman vin mete a lanmò. Koupabilite san yo sou yo.
14 If any man, having taken the daughter as a wife, will have married her mother, he has acted according to wickedness. He shall be burnt alive with them. Neither shall so great a nefarious act persist in your midst.
“‘Si gen yon mesye ki marye avèk yon fanm ansanm ak manman li, sa se konwonpi. Yo tout va brile avèk dife pou mechanste pa rete nan mitan nou.
15 Whoever will have committed sexual acts with any animal or cattle, he shall die a death. Likewise, you shall slay the beast.
“‘Si gen yon mesye ki kouche avèk yon bèt, li va vrèman vin mete a lanmò. Nou va anplis touye bèt la.
16 The woman who will have lain under any animal at all shall be destroyed together with it. So let their blood be upon them.
“‘Si gen yon fanm ki vin pwoche yon bèt pou kouche avèk li, nou va touye fanm nan ansanm ak bèt la. Yo va vrèman vin mete a lanmò. Koupabilite san an sou yo.
17 Whoever will have taken his sister, the daughter of his father or the daughter of his mother, and will have seen her nakedness, and she will have looked upon her brother’s shame, they have committed a nefarious act. They shall be slain in the sight of their people, because they have uncovered one another’s nakedness. And they shall bear their iniquity.
“‘Si yon mesye pran sè li, oswa fi a papa li, oswa fi a manman li, pou l wè nidite li, epi li wè nidite li, sa se yon gwo wont. Yo va koupe retire devan zye a fis pèp Israël la. Li te dekouvri nidite sè li. Li pote koupabilite pa l.
18 Whoever has sexual intercourse with a woman in her menstrual flow, and has uncovered her nakedness, and she has opened the fountain of her blood, both shall be destroyed from the midst of their people.
“‘Si gen yon mesye ki kouche avèk yon fanm sou règ li e dekouvri nidite li, li te vin dekouvri flèv li, e li te fè flèv san li vin parèt. Pou sa, tou de va koupe retire de pèp pa yo a.
19 You shall not expose the nakedness of your maternal or paternal aunt. Whoever does this has laid bare the shame of his own flesh; both shall bear their iniquity.
“‘Nou pa pou dekouvri nidite sè manman nou, ni sè papa nou, paske yon nonm konsa te fè nidite a fanmi de san li vin parèt. Yo va pote koupabilite yo.
20 If any man has had sexual intercourse with the wife of his paternal or maternal uncle, and he has uncovered the shame of his close relative, both shall bear their sin. They shall die without children.
“‘Si gen yon mesye ki kouche avèk madanm tonton li, li te dekouvri nidite tonton li. Yo va pote peche yo. Yo va mouri san fè pitit.
21 Whoever will have married his brother’s wife has done an unlawful thing; he has uncovered his brother’s nakedness. They shall be without children.
“‘Si gen yon mesye ki pran madanm a frè li, sa se abominab. Li te dekouvri nidite a frè li. Yo p ap janm fè pitit.
22 Observe my laws as well as my judgments, and act according to them, lest the land, into which you will enter and live, may vomit you out, too.
“‘Konsa, nou gen pou kenbe tout règleman ak tout òdonans Mwen yo e fè yo, pou peyi kote M ap mennen nou pou viv la, pa krache mete nou deyò.
23 Do not be willing to walk by the ordinances of the nations, which I will expel before you. For they have done all these things, and so I abominate them.
Anplis, nou pa pou swiv koutim nasyon sa yo ke Mwen va pouse fè sòti devan nou yo, paske yo te fè tout bagay sa yo, e konsa, Mwen te vin rayi yo.
24 But I say to you: Possess their land, which I will give to you as an inheritance, a land flowing with milk and honey. I am the Lord your God, who has separated you from the other peoples.
Konsa Mwen te di nou: “Nou dwe posede peyi pa yo a, e Mwen menm va bannou li pou posesyon, yon peyi k ap koule lèt ak siwo myèl.” Mwen se SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, ki te mete nou apa de lòt pèp yo.
25 Therefore, you must also separate the clean animals from the unclean, and the clean birds from the unclean. Do not pollute your souls with cattle, or birds, or anything that moves upon the earth, and which I have shown you to be unclean.
“‘Se konsa ke nou gen pou distinge antre bèt ki pwòp ak bèt ki pa pwòp, e antre zwazo ki pa pwòp ak sa ki pwòp la. Nou pa pou fè tèt nou vin abominab ni pa bèt, ni pa zwazo, ni pa sa ki trennen atè reptil ke Mwen te separe pou nou kòm pa pwòp.
26 You shall be holy unto me, because I, the Lord, am holy, and I have separated you from the other peoples, so that you would be mine.
Se konsa, nou va sen pou Mwen, paske Mwen, SENYÈ a, Mwen sen. Mwen te mete nou apa de lòt pèp yo pou nou kapab pa Mwen.
27 A man or a woman, in whom there is an oracle-like or a divining spirit, shall be put to death. They shall stone them. So let their blood be upon them.
“‘Alò, yon nonm oswa yon fanm ki kontakte mò yo, oswa lespri yo, yo va anverite vin mete a lanmò. Yo va vin lapide avèk kout wòch. Koupabilite san rete sou yo.’”
