Leviticus 18
1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
Ary Jehovah niteny tamin’ i Mosesy ka nanao hoe:
2 Speak to the children of Israel, and thou shalt say to them: I am the Lord your God.
Mitenena amin’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely hoe: Izaho no Jehovah Andriamanitrareo:
3 You shall not do according to the custom of the land of Egypt, in which you dwelt: neither shall you act according to the manner of the country of Chanaan, into which I will bring you, nor shall you walk in their ordinances.
Aza manao araka ny fanaon’ ny tany Egypta, izay nonenanareo; ary aza manao araka ny fanaon’ ny tany Kanana, izay ampidirako anareo, ary aza manaraka ny fombany.
4 You shall do my judgments, and shall observe my precepts, and shall walk in them. I am the Lord your God.
Ny fitsipiko no harahinareo, ary ny didiko no hotandremanareo, hanarahanareo azy: Izaho no Jehovah Andriamanitrareo.
5 Keep my laws and my judgments, which if a man do, he shall live in them. I am the Lord.
Ary tandremo ny didiko sy ny fitsipiko; fa raha mahatandrina izany ny olona, dia ho velona amin’ izany izy: Izaho no Jehovah.
6 No man shall approach to her that is near of kin to him, to uncover her nakedness. I am the Lord.
Aza misy mila izay havany akaiky handry aminy ianareo: Izaho no Jehovah.
7 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy father, or the nakedness of thy mother: she is thy mother, thou shalt not uncover her nakedness.
Aza mandry amin’ izay nandrian’ ny rainao; fa reninao izy, ka aza mandry aminy.
8 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy father’s wife: for it is the nakedness of thy father.
Aza mandry amin’ ny renikelinao; fa nandrian’ ny rainao izy.
9 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy sister by father or by mother, whether born at home or abroad.
Aza mandry amin’ ny anabavinao, zanaky ny rainao, na zanaky ny reninao, na teraka tao an-trano, na teraka tany ivelany; aza mandry aminy.
10 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy son’s daughter, or thy daughter’s daughter: because it is thy own nakedness.
Aza mandry amin’ ny zanakavavin’ ny zanakao-lahy, na ny zanakavavin’ ny zanakao-vavy; fa avy aminao no nihavian’ izy roa.
11 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy father’s wife’s daughter, whom she bore to thy father, and who is thy sister.
Aza mandry amin’ ny zanakavavin’ ny renikelinao, izay teraky ny rainao; fa anabavinao izy; aza mandry aminy.
12 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy father’s sister: because she is the flesh of thy father.
Aza mandry amin’ ny anabavin-drainao; fa havan-drainao akaiky izy.
13 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy mother’s sister: because she is thy mother’s flesh.
Aza mandry amin’ ny rahavavin-dreninao; fa havan-dreninao akaiky izy.
14 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy father’s brother: neither shalt thou approach to his wife, who is joined to thee by affinity.
Aza mandry amin’ izay nandrian’ ny rahalahin-drainao; aza mila ny vadiny fa vadin’ ny rahalahin-drainao izy.
15 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy daughter in law: because she is thy son’s wife, neither shalt thou discover her shame.
Aza mandry amin’ ny vinantovavinao; fa vadin’ ny zanakao-lahy izy, koa aza mandry aminy.
16 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy brother’s wife: because it is the nakedness of thy brother.
Aza mandry amin’ ny vadin-drahalahinao; fa nandrian’ ny rahalahinao izy.
17 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy wife and her daughter. Thou shalt not take her son’s daughter or her daughter’s daughter, to discover her shame: because they are her flesh, and such copulation is incest.
Aza mandry amin’ ny vehivavy sy ny zananivavy; aza maka ny zanakavavin’ ny zananilahy, na ny zanakavavin’ ny zananivavy, handry aminy; havany akaiky ireo, ka fahavetavetana izany.
18 Thou shalt not take thy wife’s sister for a harlot, to rival her, neither shalt thou discover her nakedness, while she is yet living.
Ary aza mampakatra vehivavy ho rafin’ ny rahavaviny izay mbola velona.
19 Thou shalt not approach to a woman having her flowers, neither shalt thou uncover her nakedness.
Ary aza mila vehivavy mararin’ ny fadim-bolany handry aminy.
20 Thou shalt not lie with thy neighbour’s wife, nor be defiled with mingling of seed.
Ary aza mandry amin’ ny vadin’ ny namanao, handoto ny tenanao aminy.
21 Thou shalt not give any of thy seed to be consecrated to the idol Moloch, nor defile the name of thy God: I am the Lord.
Ary aza misy ampandehaninao hamaky ny afo ho an’ i Moloka ny zanakao; ary aza manamavo ny anaran’ Andriamanitrao: Izaho no Jehovah.
22 Thou shalt not lie with mankind as with womankind, because it is an abomination.
Aza mandry amin’ ny lehilahy tahaka ny fandry amin’ ny vehivavy; fa fahavetavetana izany.
23 Thou shalt not copulate with any beast, neither shalt thou be defiled with it. A woman shall not lie down to a beast, nor copulate with it: because it is a heinous crime.
Ary aza mandry amin’ ny biby handoto ny tenanao aminy; ary aoka tsy hisy vehivavy hety handrian’ ny biby; fa zavatra fady indrindra izany.
24 Defile not yourselves with any of these things with which all the nations have been defiled, which I will cast out before you,
Aza mandoto ny tenanareo amin’ izany zavatra izany akory; fa izany rehetra izany no nandotoan’ ny jentilisa ny tenany, izay efa horoahiko eo anoloanareo.
25 And with which the land is defiled: the abominations of which I will visit, that it may vomit out its inhabitants.
Ary efa maloto ny tany, ka dia hamaly azy Aho noho ny helony, ary haloan’ ny tany ny mponina eo.
26 Keep ye my ordinances and my judgments, and do not any of these abominations: neither any of your own nation, nor any stranger that sojourneth among you.
Fa mitandrema ny didiko sy ny fitsipiko ianareo, ka aza misy ataonareo izany fahavetavetana izany, na ny tompon-tany, na ny vahiny eo aminareo
27 For all these detestable things the inhabitants of the land have done, that; were before you, and have defiled it.
(fa izany fahavetavetana rehetra izany no nataon’ ny tompon-tany izay talohanareo, ka dia naloto ny tany),
28 Beware then, lest in like manner, it vomit you also out, if you do the like things, as it vomited out the nation that was before you.
mba tsy handotoanareo ny tany ka tsy handoavany anareo, tahaka ny nandoavany ny firenena izay talohanareo.
29 Every soul that shall commit any of these abominations, shall perish from the midst of his people.
Fa izay rehetra manao izany fahavetavetana izany na dia iray aza dia hofongorana tsy ho amin’ ny fireneny.
30 Keep my commandments. Do not the things which they have done, that have been before you, and be not defiled therein. I am the Lord your God.
Koa dia tandremo izay asaiko tandremana, mba tsy hisy hataonareo akory izany fanao vetaveta izany, izay nataon’ ny olona talohanareo, ka aza mandoto ny tenanareo amin’ izany: Izaho no Jehovah Andriamanitrareo.
