Leviticus 20
1 The Lord told Moses,
Ary Jehovah niteny tamin’ i Mosesy ka nanao hoe:
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.
Lazao amin’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely hoe: Na iza na iza amin’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely, na amin’ ny vahiny eo aminy, no manolotra ny zanany ho an’ i Moloka, dia hatao maty tokoa: ny vahoaka no hitora-bato azy.
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.
Ary ny Tavako hanandrina izany olona izany, ka hofongorana tsy ho amin’ ny fireneny izy, satria nisy natolony ho an’ i Moloka ny zanany, handotoany ny fitoerako masìna sy hanamavoany ny anarako masìna.
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.
Ary raha mody tsy mahita izany olona izany ny vahoaka mba tsy hahafaty azy, raha anolorany ho an’ i Moloka ny zanany,
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.
dia hanandrina izany olona izany sy ny ankohonany ny Tavako, ka haringako tsy ho amin’ ny fireneny izy mbamin’ izay rehetra mijangajanga manaraka azy hijangajanga amin’ i Moloka.
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.
Ary ny olona izay mivily hanaraka izay manao azy ho tsindrian-javatra na izay mpanao hatsarana, hijangajanga hanaraka azy, dia hanandrina izany olona izany ny Tavako, ka hofongorako tsy ho amin’ ny fireneny izy.
7 So dedicate yourselves and be holy, because I am the Lord your God.
Dia manamasìna ny tenanareo ianareo, ka aoka ho masìna ianareo; fa Izaho no Jehovah Andriamanitrareo.
8 Keep my rules and put them into practice. I am the Lord who makes you holy.
Ary tandremo ny didiko, ka araho izany: Izaho no Jehovah, Izay manamasìna anareo.
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.
Fa na iza na iza no manozona ny rainy na ny reniny dia hatao maty tokoa: efa nanozona ny rainy na ny reniny izy; ny ràny dia ho aminy ihany.
10 Any man who commits adultery with someone else's wife must be executed, as well as the woman.
Ary ny lehilahy mijangajanga amin’ ny vadin’ olona, dia izay mijangajanga amin’ ny vadin’ ny namany, hatao maty tokoa, na ny mila, na ny ilainy.
11 A man who has sex with his father's wife has brought shame on his father. Both the man and the woman must be executed. Both must surely be put to death; they bear the responsibility for their punishment.
Ary ny olona izay mandry amin’ ny vadin-drainy dia efa nandry tamin’ izay nandrian-drainy; hatao maty tokoa izy roroa; ny ràny dia ho aminy ihany.
12 A man who has sex with his daughter-in-law must be executed, as well as the woman. They have done something perverse; they bear the responsibility for their punishment.
Ary raha misy lehilahy mandry amin’ ny vinantovaviny, dia hatao maty tokoa izy roroa; efa nanao zavatra izay fady indrindra izy; ny ràny dia ho aminy ihany.
13 Men who have sex with other men as with a woman have done something disgusting. They must be executed; they bear the responsibility for their punishment.
Ary raha misy lehilahy mandry amin’ ny lehilahy, tahaka ny fandry amin’ ny vehivavy, dia efa nanao fahavetavetana izy roa lahy; hatao maty tokoa izy; ny ràny dia ho aminy ihany.
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.
Ary raha misy lehilahy nampirafy vehivavy mianaka, dia fahavetavetana izany; hodorana amin’ ny afo izy telo, mba tsy hisy fahavetavetana eo aminareo.
15 A man who has sex with an animal must be executed, and the animal must be killed too.
Ary raha misy lehilahy mandry amin’ ny biby, dia hatao maty tokoa izy; ary ilay biby dia hovonoinareo koa.
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.
Ary raha misy vehivavy manatona handry amin’ ny biby, dia, hovonoina izy sy ny biby; hatao maty tokoa izy roroa; ny ràny dia ho aminy ihany.
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.
Ary raha misy lehilahy manambady ny anabaviny, na zanakavavin’ ny rainy, na zanakavavin’ ny reniny, ka mahita ny fitanjahany, ary ravehivavy mahita ny fitanjahany kosa, dia zava-dratsy izany, ka hofongorana eo imason’ ny fireneny izy roroa; fa nandry tamin’ ny anabaviny ralehilahy ka meloka.
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.
Ary raha misy lehilahy mandry amin’ ny vehivavy izay mararin’ ny fadim-bolany, dia nampisokatra ny fandehanan’ ny ràny izy, ary ravehivavy koa nanokatra ny fandehanan’ ny ràny, dia hofongorana tsy ho amin’ ny fireneny izy roroa.
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.
Ary aza mandry amin’ ny rahavavin-dreninao, na amin’ ny anabavin-drainao; fa mandry amin’ ny havany akaiky izay manao izany ka ho meloka.
20 A man who has sex with his uncle's wife brings shame on his uncle. They will bear responsibility for their sin; they shall die without having children.
Ary raha misy lehilahy mandry amin’ ny vadin’ ny rahalahin-drainy, dia efa nandry tamin’ izay nandrian’ ny rahalahin-drainy izy ho meloka izy roroa ka ho faty momba.
21 A man who marries his brother's wife does something that is unclean. He has brought shame on his brother; the couple will have no children.
Ary raha misy lehilahy maka ny vadin-drahalahiny, dia fahalotoana izany; nandry tamin’ izay nandrian’ ny rahalahiny izy, ka ho momba izy roroa.
22 So keep all my rules and regulations, so that the land where I'm taking you to live won't vomit you out.
Ary tandremo ny didiko rehetra sy ny fitsipiko rehetra, ka araho izy, mba tsy handoa anareo ny tany izay itondrako anareo honenana.
23 Don't follow the practices of the nations I'm expelling for you. I detested them because they did all these evil things.
Ary aza manaraka ny fanaon’ ny firenena izay efa horoahiko eo anoloanareo; fa nanao izany rehetra izany izy, ka dia halako.
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.
Fa efa nolazaiko taminareo hoe: Hianareo handova ny taniny, fa Izaho no hanome azy ho lovanareo, dia tany tondra-dronono sy tantely: Izaho no Jehovah Andriamanitrareo, Izay nanavaka anareo tamin’ ny firenena samy hafa.
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.
Ary avaho ny biby madio sy ny maloto, ary ny vorona maloto sy ny madio; ary aza mametaveta ny fanahinareo amin’ ny biby, na amin’ ny vorona, na amin’ izay rehetra mandady na mikisaka amin’ ny tany, izay navahako ka nolazaiko taminareo fa maloto.
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.
Ary aoka ho masìna ho Ahy ianareo, satria masìna Aho Jehovah; ary efa navahako tamin’ ny firenena samy hafa ianareo mba ho Ahy.
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.”
Ary na lehilahy na vehivavy izay manao azy ho tsindrian-javatra na izay mpanao hatsarana dia hatao maty tokoa: hitora-bato azy ny olona; ny ràny dia ho aminy ihany.
