< Leviticus 20 >
SENYÈ a te pale avèk Moïse e te di:
2 “Tell the Israelites: these regulations are for both Israelites and foreigners living among them. Anyone who sacrifices their children to Molech must be executed. The community must stone them to death.
“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 I will disown them and expel them from their people, because by sacrificing their children to Molech they have polluted my sanctuary and disgraced my reputation.
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 If the community decides to look the other way and not execute those who sacrifice their children to Molech, then I will take action against them myself.
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 disown them and their family, and expel them from their people—and not just them, but everyone who follows them in spiritually prostituting themselves with Molech.
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 I will also disown and expel from their people anyone who goes to mediums or spiritists and in this way commits spiritual prostitution with them.
“‘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 So dedicate yourselves and be holy, because 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 Keep my rules and put them into practice. I am the Lord who makes you holy.
“‘Nou va kenbe règleman Mwen yo, e nou va swiv yo. Mwen se SENYÈ a ki fè nou sen an.
9 Anyone who curses their father or mother must be executed. They have cursed their father or mother; they bear the responsibility for their punishment.

“‘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 A man who marries both a woman and her mother has acted perversely. They must all be burned to death so that there will be no such wickedness among you.
“‘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 A man who has sex with an animal must be executed, and the animal must be killed too.
“‘Si gen yon mesye ki kouche avèk yon bèt, li va vrèman vin mete a lanmò. Nou va anplis touye bèt la.
16 A woman who gives herself to an animal to have sex with it must be executed, along with the animal. They must both be killed; they bear the responsibility for their punishment.
“‘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 A man who marries his sister, whether she's his father's daughter or his mother's daughter, and they have sex, has done something shameful. They must be expelled from their people in front of everybody. He has brought shame on his sister; he bears the responsibility for his punishment.
“‘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 A man who has sex with a woman having her period he has exposed where her blood flow comes from, and she has too. They must both be expelled from 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 Don't have sex with your aunt, whether on your father or your mother's side, because it brings shame on your own family. Both will bear responsibility for their sin.
“‘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.

22 So keep all my rules and regulations, so that the land where I'm taking you to live won't vomit you out.
“‘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 Don't follow the practices of the nations I'm expelling for you. I detested them because they did all these evil things.
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 have promised you that you will take over their land. I'm going to give it to you to own, a land that flows with milk and honey. I am the Lord your God, who has made you a distinctive people different from all others.
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 So make sure you observe the difference between clean and unclean animals and birds. Don't make yourselves unclean because of any animal or bird, or by anything that runs along the ground. I have made the difference clear: they are unclean for you.
“‘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 to me because I am holy. I am the Lord, and I have made you a distinctive people different from all other nations. You belong to me.
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 Anyone, man or a woman, who is a medium or a spiritist must be executed. They are to be stoned to death; they bear the responsibility for their punishment.”
“‘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.’”
