Leviticus 18
1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्नुभयो,
2 Speak to the children of Israel, and you shall say to them, I [am] the Lord your God.
“इस्राएलका मानिसहरूलाई यसो भन्, ‘म परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्वर हुँ ।
3 You shall not do according to the devices of Egypt, in which you lived: and according to the devices of the land of Chanaan, into which I bring you, you shall not do; and you shall not walk in their ordinances.
तिमीहरू पहिले बसोबास गर्ने मिश्रका मानिसहरूले त्यहाँ जे गर्थे ती तिमीहरूले नगर्नू । मैले तिमीहरूलाई लैजान लागेको देश अर्थात् कनानका मानिसहरूले त्यहाँ जे गर्थे ती तिमीहरूले नगर्नू । तिमीहरूले तिनीहरूका रीतिरिवाजहरू नपछ्याउनू ।
4 You shall observe my judgments, and shall keep my ordinances, and shall walk in them: I [am] the Lord your God.
मेरो व्यवस्था तिमीहरूले पालन गर्नू, र मेरा आज्ञाहरू मान्नू, र तीअनुसार तिमीहरू हिँड्नू, किनभने म परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्वर हुँ ।
5 So you shall keep all my ordinances, and all my judgments, and do them; which if a man do, he shall live in them: I [am] the Lord your God.
यसैकारण तिमीहरूले मेरा आज्ञाहरू मान्नू र मेरा व्यवस्था पालन गर्नू । ती पालन गर्ने मानिस तीद्वारा नै बाँच्दछ । म परमप्रभु हुँ ।
6 No man shall draw near to any of his near kindred to uncover their nakedness; I [am] the Lord.
आफ्नो नजिकको नातेदारसँग सुतेर कसैले पनि आफ्नो नग्नता नदेखाओस् । म परमप्रभु हुँ ।
7 You shall not uncover the nakedness of your father, or the nakedness of your mother, for she is your mother; you shall not uncover her nakedness.
आफ्नी आमासँग सुतेर आफ्ना बुबाको अनादार नगर्नू । त्यो तेरी आमा हो! तैँले त्यसलाई अनादर नगर् ।
8 You shall not uncover the nakedness of your father's wife; it is your father's nakedness.
आफ्ना बुबाकी कुनै पत्नीसँग पनि नसुत् । त्यस्तो काम गरेर आफ्ना बुबाको अनादर नगर् ।
9 The nakedness of your sister by your father or by your mother, born at home or abroad, their nakedness you shall not uncover.
आफ्नी कुनै दिदी-बहिनीसँग नसुत्, चाहे त्यो तेरो बुबाकी छोरी वा आमाकी छोरी होस्, चाहे त्यो तेरो घरमा वा घरबाट टाढा हुर्काइएकी होस् । आफ्नी दिदी-बहिनीसँग नसुत् ।
10 The nakedness of your son's daughter, or your daughter's daughter, their nakedness you shall not uncover; because it is your nakedness.
आफ्नो छोरा वा छोरीको छोरीसँग नसुत् । त्यो तेरो निम्ति शर्मको कुरा हो ।
11 You shall not uncover the nakedness of the daughter of your father's wife; she is your sister by the same father: you shall not uncover her nakedness.
आफ्ना बुबाकी पत्नीकी छोरीसँग नसुत्, जो तेरो बुबाबाट जन्मेकी थिई । त्यो तेरो बहिनी हो, र तँ त्योसँग नसुत् ।
12 You shall not uncover the nakedness of your father's sister, for she is near akin to your father.
आफ्ना बुबाकी दिदी-बहिनीसँग नसुत् । त्यो तेरो बुबाको नजिकको नातेदार हो ।
13 You shall not uncover the nakedness of your mother's sister, for she is near akin to your mother.
आफ्नी आमाकी दिदी-बहिनीसँग नसुत् । त्यो तेरी आमाको नजिकको नातेदार हो ।
14 You shall not uncover the nakedness of your father's brother, and you shall not go in to his wife; for she is your relation.
आफ्ना बुबाको दाजु वा भाइकी पत्नीसँग सुतेर त्यसको अनादर नगर् । त्यस्तो कामको निम्ति त्यसको नजिक नजा, त्यो तेरी काकी हो ।
15 You shall not uncover the nakedness of your daughter-in-law, for she is your son's wife, you shall not uncover her nakedness.
आफ्नी बुहारीसँग नसुत् । त्यो तेरो छोरोकी पत्नी हो, त्योसँग नसुत् ।
16 You shall not uncover the nakedness of your brother's wife: it is your brother's nakedness.
आफ्नो दाजु वा भाइकी पत्नीसँग नसुत् । यस्तो काम गरेर त्यसको अनादर नगर् ।
17 The nakedness of a woman and her daughter shall you not uncover; her son's daughter, and her daughter's daughter, shall you not take, to uncover their nakedness, for they are your kinswomen: it is impiety.
कुनै स्त्री र त्यसकी छोरी दुवैसँग नसुत्, वा त्यसको छोराकी छोरीसँग वा त्यसकी छोरीकी छोरीसँग नसुत् । तिनीहरू त्यस स्त्रीका नजिकका नातेदार हुन् र तिनीहरूसँग सुत्नु दुष्टता हो ।
18 You shall not take a wife in addition to her sister, as a rival, to uncover her nakedness in opposition to her, while she is yet living.

19 And you shall not go in to a woman under separation for her uncleanness, to uncover her nakedness.

21 And you shall not give of your seed to serve a ruler; and you shall not profane my holy name; I [am] the Lord.
आफ्ना छोराछोरीहरूलाई मोलोखको निम्ति बलि गर्नलाई तिनीहरूलाई आगोमा नहाल्नू, किनभने तिमीहरूले यसो गरेर आफ्ना परमेश्वरको नाउँलाई अपवित्र नबनाउनू । म परमप्रभु हुँ ।
22 And you shall not lie with a man as with a woman, for it is an abomination.
स्त्रीसँगझैँ गरी अरू पुरुषहरूसँग नसुत्नू । यो दुष्टता हो ।
23 Neither shall you lie with any quadruped for copulation, to be polluted with it: neither shall a woman present herself before any quadruped to have connexion with it; for it is an abomination.
कुनै पशुसँग सहवास गरेर आफैलाई अशुद्ध नबनाउनू । कुनै पनि स्त्री कुनै पशुसँग नसुत्नू । यो अस्वाभाविक दुराचरण हो ।
24 Do not defile yourselves with any of these things; for in all these things the nations are defiled, which I drive out before you,
यस्ता कामहरू गरेर आफैलाई अपवित्र नबनाउनू, किनभने जुन जातिहरूलाई मैले तिमीहरूका सामुबाट निकाल्दै छु ती यी सबै कारणले अपवित्र भएका छन् ।
25 and the land is polluted; and I have recompensed their iniquity to them because of it, and the land is aggrieved with them that dwell upon it.
तिनीहरूको भूमि अपवित्र भयो, र यसैकारण मैले तिनीहरूका पापको दण्ड दिएँ, र त्यस भूमिले त्यसका बासिन्दाहरूलाई उकेलेर निकालिदियो ।
26 And you shall keep all my statutes and all my ordinances, and you shall do none of these abominations; neither the native, nor the stranger that joins himself with you:
यसैकारण, तिमीहरूले मेरा आज्ञाहरू र विधिहरू पालन गर्नू, र इस्राएलका स्वदेशी वा तिमीहरूका बिचमा बसोबास गर्ने परदेशी जोकोहीले कुनै पनि यस्ता घृणास्पद काम नगर्नू ।
27 (for all these abominations the men of the land did who were before you, and the land was defiled, )
तिमीहरूभन्दा अगि यस भूमिमा बसोबास गर्ने मानिसहरूले यस्तै दुष्ट काम गरे, र यसैकारण सारा देश नै अपवित्र भयो ।
28 and lest the land be aggrieved with you in your polluting it, as it was aggrieved with the nations before you.
तिमीहरूका अपवित्रताका कारण तिमीहरूभन्दा अगिका मानिसहरूलाई झैँ त्यस भूमिले तिमीहरूलाई पनि उकेलेर बाहिर ननिकालोस् ।
29 For whoever shall do any of these abominations, the souls that do them shall be destroyed from among their people.
तिमीहरूमध्ये जो कोहीले यस्ता घृणास्पद कामहरू गर्दछन् भने, तिनीहरू आफ्ना मानिसहरूबाट बहिष्कृत हुने छन् ।
30 And you shall keep mine ordinances, that you may not do any of the abominable practices, which have taken place before your time: and you shall not be polluted in them; for I [am] the Lord your God.
तिमीहरूभन्दा अगि यहाँ अभ्यास हुने गरेका कुनै यस्ता घृणास्पद रीतिरिवाजहरूलाई तिमीहरूले अभ्यास नगरेर मेरो आज्ञा पालन गर्नू अनि यसरी तिमीहरूले यस्ता कामले आफैलाई अपवित्र बनाउने छैनौ । म परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्वर हुँ’ ।”
