Leviticus 20

1 And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,

Y habló el SEÑOR a Moisés diciendo:

2 Again, you shall say to the children of Israel, Whoever he be of the children of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn in Israel, that gives any of his seed to Molech; he shall surely be put to death: the people of the land shall stone him with stones.

Dirás asimismo a los hijos de Israel: Cualquier varón de los hijos de Israel, o de los extranjeros que peregrinan en Israel, que diere de su simiente a Moloc, de seguro morirá; el pueblo de la tierra lo apedreará con piedras.

3 And I will set my face against that man, and will cut him off from among his people; because he has given of his seed to Molech, to defile my sanctuary, and to profane my holy name.

Y yo pondré mi rostro contra el tal varón, y lo cortaré de entre su pueblo; por cuanto dio de su simiente a Moloc, contaminando mi santuario, y ensuciando mi santo nombre.

4 And if the people of the land do any ways hide their eyes from the man, when he gives of his seed to Molech, and kill him not:

Y si escondiere el pueblo de la tierra sus ojos de aquel varón que hubiere dado de su simiente a Moloc, para no matarle,

5 Then I will set my face against that man, and against his family, and will cut him off, and all that go a whoring after him, to commit prostitution with Molech, from among their people.

entonces yo pondré mi rostro contra aquel varón, y contra su familia, y le cortaré de entre su pueblo, con todos los que fornicaron en pos de él, prostituyéndose en pos de Moloc.

6 And the soul that turns after such as have familiar spirits, and after wizards, to go a whoring after them, I will even set my face against that soul, and will cut him off from among his people.

Y la persona que atendiere a encantadores o adivinos, para prostituirse tras de ellos, yo pondré mi rostro contra la tal persona, y la cortaré de entre su pueblo.

7 Sanctify yourselves therefore, and be you holy: for I am the LORD your God.

Santificaos, pues, y sed santos, porque yo soy el SEÑOR vuestro Dios.

8 And you shall keep my statutes, and do them: I am the LORD which sanctify you.

Y guardad mis estatutos, y ponedlos por obra. Yo soy el SEÑOR que os santifico.

9 For every one that curses his father or his mother shall be surely put to death: he has cursed his father or his mother; his blood shall be on him.

Porque varón que maldijere a su padre o a su madre, de cierto morirá; a su padre o a su madre maldijo; su sangre será sobre él.

10 And the man that commits adultery with another man’s wife, even he that commits adultery with his neighbor’s wife, the adulterer and the adulteress shall surely be put to death.

Y el varón que adulterare con la mujer de otro, el que cometiere adulterio con la mujer de su prójimo, indefectiblemente morirá el adúltero y la adúltera.

11 And the man that lies with his father’s wife has uncovered his father’s nakedness: both of them shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be on them.

Y cualquiera que se echare con la mujer de su padre, la desnudez de su padre descubrió; ambos morirán; su sangre será sobre ellos.

12 And if a man lie with his daughter in law, both of them shall surely be put to death: they have worked confusion; their blood shall be on them.

Y cualquiera que durmiere con su nuera, ambos morirán; hicieron mistura; su sangre será sobre ellos.

13 If a man also lie with mankind, as he lies with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be on them.

Y cualquiera que tuviere ayuntamiento con macho como con mujer, abominación hicieron; ambos morirán; su sangre será sobre ellos.

14 And if a man take a wife and her mother, it is wickedness: they shall be burnt with fire, both he and they; that there be no wickedness among you.

Y el que tomare mujer y a la madre de ella, comete vileza; quemarán en fuego a él y a ellas, para que no haya vileza entre vosotros.

15 And if a man lie with a beast, he shall surely be put to death: and you shall slay the beast.

Y cualquiera que tuviere cópula con bestia, morirá; y mataréis a la bestia.

16 And if a woman approach to any beast, and lie down thereto, you shall kill the woman, and the beast: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be on them.

Y la mujer que se acercare a algún animal, para tener ayuntamiento con él, a la mujer y al animal matarás; morirán infaliblemente; su sangre será sobre ellos.

17 And if a man shall take his sister, his father’s daughter, or his mother’s daughter, and see her nakedness, and she see his nakedness; it is a wicked thing; and they shall be cut off in the sight of their people: he has uncovered his sister’s nakedness; he shall bear his iniquity.

Y cualquiera que tomare a su hermana, hija de su padre o hija de su madre, y viere su desnudez, y ella viere la suya, cosa es execrable; por tanto serán muertos a ojos de los hijos de su pueblo; descubrió la desnudez de su hermana; su pecado llevará.

18 And if a man shall lie with a woman having her sickness, and shall uncover her nakedness; he has discovered her fountain, and she has uncovered the fountain of her blood: and both of them shall be cut off from among their people.

Y cualquiera que durmiere con mujer menstruosa, y descubriere su desnudez, su fuente descubrió, y ella descubrió la fuente de su sangre; ambos serán cortados de entre su pueblo.

19 And you shall not uncover the nakedness of your mother’s sister, nor of your father’s sister: for he uncovers his near kin: they shall bear their iniquity.

La desnudez de la hermana de tu madre, o de la hermana de tu padre, no descubrirás; por cuanto descubrió su parienta, su iniquidad llevarán.

20 And if a man shall lie with his uncle’s wife, he has uncovered his uncle’s nakedness: they shall bear their sin; they shall die childless.

Y cualquiera que durmiere con la mujer del hermano de su padre, la desnudez del hermano de su padre descubrió; su pecado llevarán; morirán sin hijos.

21 And if a man shall take his brother’s wife, it is an unclean thing: he has uncovered his brother’s nakedness; they shall be childless.

Y el que tomare la mujer de su hermano, es suciedad; la desnudez de su hermano descubrió; sin hijos serán.

22 You shall therefore keep all my statutes, and all my judgments, and do them: that the land, where I bring you to dwell therein, spew you not out.

Guardad, pues, todos mis estatutos y todos mis derechos, y ponedlos por obra; y no os vomitará la tierra, en la cual yo os introduzco para que habitéis en ella.

23 And you shall not walk in the manners of the nation, which I cast out before you: for they committed all these things, and therefore I abhorred them.

Y no andéis en las prácticas de los gentiles que yo echaré de delante de vosotros; porque ellos hicieron todas estas cosas, y los tuve en abominación.

24 But I have said to you, You shall inherit their land, and I will give it to you to possess it, a land that flows with milk and honey: I am the LORD your God, which have separated you from other people.

Pero a vosotros os he dicho: Vosotros poseeréis la tierra de ellos, y yo os la daré para que la poseáis por heredad, tierra que fluye leche y miel. Yo soy el SEÑOR vuestro Dios, que os he apartado de los pueblos.

25 You shall therefore put difference between clean beasts and unclean, and between unclean fowls and clean: and you shall not make your souls abominable by beast, or by fowl, or by any manner of living thing that creeps on the ground, which I have separated from you as unclean.

Por tanto, vosotros haréis diferencia entre animal limpio e inmundo, y entre ave inmunda y limpia; y no ensuciéis vuestras personas en los animales, ni en las aves, ni en ninguna cosa que se va arrastrando por la tierra, las cuales os he apartado por inmundas.

26 And you shall be holy to me: for I the LORD am holy, and have severed you from other people, that you should be mine.

Habéis, pues, de serme santos, porque yo el SEÑOR soy santo, y os he apartado de los pueblos, para que seáis míos.

27 A man also or woman that has a familiar spirit, or that is a wizard, shall surely be put to death: they shall stone them with stones: their blood shall be on them.

Y el hombre o la mujer en quienes hubiere espíritu pitónico o de adivinación, morirán; los apedrearán con piedras; su sangre será sobre ellos.
