< Leviticus 21 >
1 And the Lord said vnto Moses, Speake vnto the Priestes the sonnes of Aaron, and say vnto them, Let none be defiled by the dead among his people,
Seyè a di Moyiz konsa: -Pale ak pitit Arawon yo, prèt yo. W'a di yo konsa: Lè yon prèt gen yon moun mouri nan fanmi l', piga li patisipe nan ankenn seremoni yo fè pou mò, pou sa pa mete l' nan kondisyon pou l' pa ka fè sèvis Bondye,
2 But by his kinseman that is neere vnto him: to wit, by his mother, or by his father, or by his sonne, or by his daughter, or by his brother,
esepte pou fanmi pre anpil tankou manman, papa, pitit fi, pitit gason, frè.
3 Or by his sister a maid, that is neere vnto him, which hath not had a husband: for her he may lament.
Pou yon sè, si sè a poko fè zafè, li gen dwa mete tèt li nan kondisyon pou l' pa ka fè sèvis Bondye.
4 He shall not lament for the Prince among his people, to pollute him selfe.
Yon prèt pa gen dwa mete tèt li nan kondisyon pou l' pa ka fè sèvis Bondye lè se yon sè li ki deja marye ki mouri.
5 They shall not make balde partes vpon their head, nor shaue off the locks of their beard, nor make any cuttings in their flesh.
Prèt yo pa gen dwa kale ankenn pati nan tèt yo, ni yo pa gen dwa taye pwent bab yo, ni yo pa gen dwa make kò yo avèk kouto, pou fè wè yo gen moun mouri.
6 They shalbe holy vnto their God, and not pollute the name of their God: for the sacrifices of the Lord made by fire, and the bread of their God they doe offer: therefore they shalbe holie.
Se pou yo viv apa nèt pou Bondye yo. Yo pa dwe derespekte non mwen. Paske se yo menm k'ap mete nan dife ofrann yo fè pou Seyè a, se manje Bondye y'ap ofri. Se pou yo toujou rete apa pou mwen.
7 They shall not take to wife an whore, or one polluted, neither shall they marrie a woman diuorced from her husband: for such one is holy vnto his God.
Yon prèt pa gen dwa marye ni ak yon fanm ki t'ap fè jennès, ni ak yon fanm ki konn gason deja, ni ak yon fanm mari l' kite l', paske yo mete yo apa pou fè sèvis mwen.
8 Thou shalt sanctifie him therefore, for he offereth the bread of thy God: he shall be holy vnto thee: for I the Lord, which sanctifie you, am holy.
Tout moun dwe konsidere prèt yo tankou moun yo mete apa pou Bondye, paske se yo menm k'ap fè ofrann pou Bondye nou an. Mwen menm Seyè a, mwen yon Bondye apa. Se mwen k'ap fè nou viv apa pou mwen. Wi, se pou nou konsidere prèt yo tankou moun yo mete apa pou Bondye.
9 If a Priestes daughter fall to play the whore, she polluteth her father: therefore shall she be burnt with fire.
Si pitit fi yon prèt tonbe nan fè jennès, l'ap avili papa l', y'a boule l' nan dife pou touye l'.
10 Also ye hie Priest among his brethren, (vpon whose head the anointing oyle was powred, and hath consecrated his hand to put on the garments) shall not vncouer his head, nor rent his clothes,
Granprèt la, se chèf li ye nan mitan tout prèt yo. Se moun yo te vide lwil sou tèt li a, moun yo te mete apa pou mete rad prèt la sou li a. Li pa fèt ni pou kite tèt li san penyen, ni pou l' chire rad sou li lè li gen moun mouri.
11 Neither shall he goe to any dead bodie, nor make him selfe vncleane by his father or by his mother,
Yo mete kouwòn mwen sou tèt li, yo vide lwil sou tèt li pou mete l' apa pou mwen. Li pa fèt pou l' fè bagay ki pou mete l' nan kondisyon pou li pa ka fè sèvis Bondye, pou l' derespekte kay yo mete apa pou Bondye a.
12 Neither shall he goe out of the Sanctuarie, nor pollute the holy place of his God: for the crowne of the anoynting oyle of his God is vpon him: I am the Lord.
Li pa fèt pou l' kite kay Bondye a pou l' al antre nan yon kay kote gen kadav moun mouri, menm si se papa l' osinon manman l' ki mouri a. Se mwen menm ki Seyè a!
13 Also he shall take a maide vnto his wife:
Granprèt la va marye ak yon jenn fi ki tifi.
14 But a widowe, or a diuorced woman, or a polluted, or an harlot, these shall he not marrie, but shall take a maide of his owne people to wife:
Li p'ap pran pou madanm yon fanm vèv, ni yon fanm divòse, ni yon fanm ki konn gason deja, osinon yon fanm ki t'ap fè jennès. Se sèlman yon jenn fi ki soti nan menm branch fanmi avè l' pou li pran pou madanm.
15 Neyther shall he defile his seede among his people: for I am the Lord which sanctifie him.
Sinon, pitit li yo va yon wont pou fanmi an. Se mwen menm, Seyè a, ki mete li apa pou sèvis mwen.
16 And the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,
Seyè a pale ak Moyiz, li di l' konsa:
17 Speake vnto Aaron, and say, Whosoeuer of thy seede in their generations hath any blemishes, shall not prease to offer the bread of his God:
-Pale ak Arawon, w'a di li: Si gen yon moun nan fanmi ou ki gen yon enfimite, li p'ap janm ka pwoche pou l' fè ofrann manje pou Bondye li. Regleman sa a ou fèt pou swiv li tout tan de pitit an pitit.
18 For whosoeuer hath any blemish, shall not come neere: as a man blinde or lame, or that hath a flat nose, or that hath any misshapen member,
Ankenn gason enfim pa gen dwa prezante ofrann bay Bondye, kit li avèg, kit li bwete, kit li domaje nan figi, kit li difòm,
19 Or a man that hath a broken foote, or a broken hande,
kit li enfim nan men osinon nan pye,
20 Or is crooke backt, or bleare eyed, or hath a blemish in his eye, or be skiruie, or skabbed, or haue his stones broken.
kit li gen boul nan do, kit li rachitik, kit li malad nan je, kit li gen maladi po, kit grenn li kraze.
21 None of the seede of Aaron the Priest that hath a blemish, shall come neere to offer the sacrifices of the Lord made by fire, hauing a blemish: he shall not prease to offer the bread of his God.
Depi yon gason nan ras prèt Arawon an enfim yon kote nan kò li, li p'ap ka pwoche pou fè ofrann pou boule nan dife pou Seyè a. Wi, si li gen yon enfimite, li p'ap ka pwoche devan Bondye pou fè ofrann pou li.
22 The bread of his God, euen of the most holie, and of the holy shall he eate:
Yon nonm konsa ka toujou manje nan manje yo ofri ban mwen, kit se nan manje yo ofri m' lan osinon nan manje yo mete apa pou mwen an.
23 But he shall not goe in vnto the vaile, nor come neere the altar, because hee hath a blemish, least he pollute my Sanctuaries: for I am the Lord that sanctifie them.
Men, li pa gen dwa pwoche bò rido a ni vin bò lotèl la paske li enfim nan kò l'. Li pa fèt pou derespekte bagay ki apa pou mwen yo paske se mwen menm Seyè a ki mete yo apa pou mwen.
24 Thus spake Moses vnto Aaron, and to his sonnes, and to all the children of Israel.
Se konsa, Moyiz pale ak Arawon, ak pitit gason l' yo ansanm ak tout moun pèp Izrayèl yo, li di yo tou sa.
