Leviticus 21
1 And Jehovah said to Moses, Speak unto the priests, the sons of Aaron, and say unto them, There shall none make himself unclean for a dead person among his peoples,
Alò SENYÈ a te pale avèk Moïse. Li te di: “Pale avèk prèt yo, fis Aaron yo. Di yo konsa: ‘Pèsòn pa pou konwonpi kò l avèk yon moun mouri pami pèp li a,
2 except for his immediate relation, who is near unto him — for his mother, and for his father, and for his son, and for his daughter, and for his brother;
sof pou fanmi ki pi prè li yo, tankou manman l, papa l, fis li, fi li ak frè li,
3 and for his sister, a virgin, that is near unto him, who hath had no husband, for her may he make himself unclean.
ak pou sè vyèj li, ki prè li, ki pa t gen mari. Pou sila a, li kapab konwonpi kò l.
4 He shall not make himself unclean [who is] a chief among his peoples, to profane himself.
Li pa pou konwonpi kò l, akoz li se yon gwo chèf pami pèp li a, e konsa, pou vin degrade tèt li.
5 They shall not make any baldness upon their head, neither shall they shave off the corners of their beard, nor make any cuttings in their flesh.
“‘Yo pa pou fè tèt yo kale, ni taye bab yo, ni fè okenn blese nan chè yo.
6 They shall be holy unto their God, and not profane the name of their God; for they present Jehovah's offerings by fire, the bread of their God; therefore shall they be holy.
Yo va rete sen a Bondye pa yo a, e yo p ap konwonpi non Bondye pa yo a, paske se yo ki prezante ofrann dife bay SENYÈ a, manje pou Bondye pa yo a. Alò, fòk yo sen.
7 They shall not take as wife a whore, or a dishonoured woman; neither shall they take a woman put away from her husband; for he is holy unto his God.
“‘Yo pa pou pran yon fanm ki degrade kòm pwostitiye, ni yo pa pou pran yon fanm ki divòse avèk mari li; paske li sen a Bondye pa li a.
8 And thou shalt hallow him; for the bread of thy God doth he present: he shall be holy unto thee; for I, Jehovah, who hallow you am holy.
Konsa, nou va konsakre li, paske li ofri ou manje Bondye nou an. Li va sen pou nou, paske Mwen, SENYÈ ki sanktifye nou an, Mwen sen.
9 And the daughter of any priest, if she profane herself by playing the whore, she profaneth her father: she shall be burned with fire.
“‘Fi a nenpòt prèt, si li degrade tèt li kòm pwostitiye, li degrade papa li. Li va brile nan dife.
10 And the high priest among his brethren, on whose head the anointing oil was poured, and who is consecrated to put on the garments, shall not uncover his head, nor rend his garments.
“‘Prèt ki se wo prèt pami frè li yo, sou tèt sila lwil onksyon an te vide a, e sila ki te konsakre pou abiye avèk vètman yo, pa pou dekouvri tèt li, ni chire rad li.
11 Neither shall he come near any person dead, nor make himself unclean for his father and for his mother;
Li pa pou pwoche okenn moun mouri, ni konwonpi tèt li menm si se pou papa li oswa manman li.
12 neither shall he go out of the sanctuary, nor profane the sanctuary of his God; for the consecration of the anointing oil of his God is upon him: I am Jehovah.
Li pa pou sòti nan sanktyè a, ni konwonpi sanktyè Bondye li a, paske konsekrasyon lwil sen an sou li. Mwen se SENYÈ a.
13 And he shall take a wife in her virginity.
“‘Li va pran yon madanm ki vyèj.
14 A widow, or a divorced woman, or a dishonoured one, a harlot, these shall he not take; but he shall take as wife a virgin from among his peoples.
Yon vèv, oswa yon fanm divòse, oswa youn ki degrade kòm pwostitiye, sa yo, li pa kapab pran yo. Men okontrè, fòk li marye ak yon vyèj pami pwòp pèp pa li a.
15 And he shall not profane his seed among his peoples; for I am Jehovah who do hallow him.
Li pa pou degrade desandan li yo pami pwòp pèp li a, paske Mwen se SENYÈ ki fè li sen an.’”
16 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
Alò SENYÈ a te pale avèk Moïse. Li te di:
17 Speak unto Aaron, saying, Any of thy seed throughout their generations that hath any defect, shall not approach to present the bread of his God;
“Pale avèk Aaron. Di l: ‘Okenn moun pami nou ki gen yon defo fizik p ap pwoche pou ofri manje bay Bondye li a.
18 for whatever man hath a defect, he shall not approach: a blind man, or a lame, or he that hath a flat nose, or one limb longer than the other,
Paske nenpòt moun ki gen yon defo p ap pwoche: yon nonm avèg, yon bwate, yon nonm ki gen figi defòme, oswa okenn manm kò defòme,
19 or a man that is broken-footed, or broken-handed,
yon nonm pye kase oswa men kase,
20 or hump-backed, or withered, or that hath a spot in his eye, or hath the itch, or scabs, or his testicles broken.
yon moun ki gen boul nan do oswa kata, oubyen yon moun ki gen defo nan zye li, oswa ekzema nan po, kal oswa boul grenn ki donmaje.
21 No man of the seed of Aaron the priest that hath defect shall come near to present Jehovah's offerings by fire: he hath a defect; he shall not come near to present the bread of his God.
Okenn moun nan ras Aaron, prèt ki gen defo pa pou pwoche pou fè ofrann SENYÈ a pa dife. Akoz li gen yon defo, li pa pou pwoche pou ofri pen ki pou Bondye li a.
22 The bread of his God, of the most holy and of the holy, shall he eat;
Li kapab manje pen Bondye li a, ni sa ki sen pase tout bagay yo, avèk sa ki sen an.
23 only he shall not come in unto the veil, nor shall he draw near unto the altar; for he hath a defect: that he profane not my sanctuaries; for I am Jehovah who do hallow them.
Se sèlman, li pa pou antre anndan vwal la, ni toupre lotèl la akoz ke li gen yon defo, pou li pa konwonpi sanktyè Mwen yo. Paske Mwen se SENYÈ ki fè yo sen an.’”
24 And Moses told it to Aaron, and to his sons, and to all the children of Israel.
Alò, Moïse te pale avèk Aaron, a fis li yo, e a tout fis Israël yo.
