< Numbers 19 >
1 And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying,
Senyè a te pale ak Moïse avèk Aaron e te di:
2 This is the constitution of the law, as the Lord has commanded, saying, Speak to the sons of Israel, and let them take for you a red heifer without spot, which has no spot on her, and on which no yoke has been put.
“Sa se règleman lalwa ke SENYÈ a te kòmande a. Li te di: ‘Pale a fis Israël yo pou yo pote ba ou yon gazèl wouj, san defo, sou sila yon jouk pa t janm vin poze.
3 And you shall give her to Eleazar the priest; and they shall bring her out of the camp into a clean place, and shall kill her before his face.
Nou va bay li a Éléazar, prèt la, li va pote li deyò kan an, e touye li nan prezans li.
4 And Eleazar shall take of her blood, and sprinkle of her blood seven times in front of the tabernacle of witness.
Apre, Éléazar, prèt la, va pran kèk nan san li avèk dwèt li, e flite kèk nan san li an pa devan tant asanble a sèt fwa.
5 And they shall burn her to ashes before him; and her skin and her flesh and her blood, with her dung, shall be consumed.
Alò, gazèl la va brile devan zye li; po li, chè li avèk san li, avèk poupou li, va brile.
6 And the priest shall take cedar wood and hyssop and scarlet wool, and they shall cast them into the midst of the burning of the heifer.
Prèt la va pran bwa sèd avèk izòp ak twal wouj, e li va jete li nan mitan gazèl k ap brile a.
7 And the priest shall wash his garments, and bathe his body in water, and afterwards he shall go into the camp, and the priest shall be unclean till evening.
Epi prèt la va lave vètman li yo, benyen kò li nan dlo, e apre, li va antre nan kan an.
8 And he that burns her shall wash his garments, and bathe his body, and shall be unclean till evening.
Sila ki brile li a, va osi lave kò li nan dlo, apre li va vini nan kan an, e li va rete pa pwòp jis rive nan aswè.
9 And a clean man shall gather up the ashes of the heifer, and lay them up in a clean place outside the camp; and they shall be for the congregation of the children of Israel to keep: it is the water of sprinkling, a purification.
“‘Alò, yon nonm ki pwòp, va ranmase sann gazèl la pou depoze yo deyò kan an nan yon kote ki pwòp. Epi fis Israël yo va konsève li pou sèvi nan dlo pirifikasyon. Li se yon ofrann pou peche.
10 And he that gathers up the ashes of the heifer shall wash his garments, and shall be unclean until evening; and it shall be a perpetual statute for the children of Israel and for the strangers joined to them.
Sila ki ranmase sann gazèl la va lave rad li, e li va rete pa pwòp pou jis rive nan aswè. Li va yon règleman ki pou tout tan pou fis Israël yo ak pou etranje ki rete pami yo a.
11 He that touches the dead body of any man, shall be unclean seven days.
“‘Sila ki touche kadav a nenpòt moun, va pa pwòp pandan sèt jou.
12 He shall be purified on the third day and the seventh day, and shall be clean; but if he be not purged on the third day and the seventh day, he shall not be clean.
Li dwe pirifye tèt li avèk dlo nan twazyèm jou a ak nan setyèm jou a. Apre, li va pwòp. Men si li pa pirifye tèt li nan twazyèm jou a ak nan setyèm jou a, li p ap vin pwòp.
13 Every one that touches the carcase of the person of a man, if he should have died, and [the other] not have been purified, has defiled the tabernacle of the Lord: that soul shall be cut off from Israel, because the water of sprinkling has not been sprinkled upon him; he is unclean; his uncleanness is yet upon him.
Nenpòt moun ki touche yon mò, kò a yon moun mouri, e li pa pirifye tèt li, li degrade tabènak a SENYÈ a; epi moun sa va koupe retire de Israël a. Akoz dlo pirifikasyon an pa t flite sou li, li va vin pa pwòp. Pa pwòp li a rete sou li.
14 And this [is] the law; if a man die in a house, every one that goes into the house, and all things in the house, shall be unclean seven days.
“‘Sa se lalwa lè yon nonm mouri nan yon tant: tout moun ki antre nan tant lan ak tout moun ki deja nan tant lan, vin pa pwòp pandan sèt jou.
15 And every open vessel which has not a covering bound upon it, shall be unclean.
Tout veso ki louvri, ki pa gen kouvèti mare sou li, pa pwòp.
16 And every one who shall touch a man slain by violence, or a corpse, or human bone, or sepulchre, shall be unclean seven days.
“‘Osi, nenpòt moun ki nan chan louvri, e ki touche yon moun ki te touye pa nepe, oswa ki te mouri nenpòt jan, swa yon zo Kretyen oswa yon tonm, li va vin pa pwòp pandan sèt jou.
17 And they shall take for the unclean of the burnt ashes of purification, and they shall pour upon them running water into a vessel.
“‘Alò, pou sila ki pa pwòp yo, yo va pran kèk nan sann pirifikasyon peche ki te brile a, e dlo k ap koule va mele avèk yo nan yon veso.
18 And a clean man shall take hyssop, and dip it into the water, and sprinkle it upon the house, and the furniture, and all the souls that are therein, and upon him that touched the human bone, or the slain man, or the corpse, or the tomb.
Yon moun pwòp va pran izòp e fonse li nan dlo a, flite li sou tant lan ak sou tout zafè li yo, ak sou tout moun ki te ladann yo, tout sila ki te touche zo a, oswa sa ki te touye, oswa sa ki te mouri yon lòt jan, oswa yon tonm.
19 And the clean man shall sprinkle [the water] on the unclean on the third day and on the seventh day, and on the seventh day he shall purify himself; and [the other] shall wash his garments, and bathe himself in water, and shall be unclean until evening.
Alò, moun pwòp la va flite sou sila ki pa pwòp la nan twazyèm jou a ak nan setyèm jou a. Nan setyèm jou a, li dwe pirifye tèt li. Li va lave rad li, benyen nan dlo e li va pwòp nan aswè.
20 And whatever man shall be defiled and shall not purify himself, that soul shall be cut off from the midst of the congregation, because he has defiled the holy things of the Lord, because the water of sprinkling has not been sprinkled upon him; he is unclean.
Men sila ki pa pwòp la, ki pa pirifye tèt li a, li va koupe retire nan mitan asanble a, akoz li te degrade sanktyè SENYÈ a. Dlo pirifikasyon an pa t flite sou li, e li pa pwòp.
21 And it shall be to you a perpetual statute; and he that sprinkles the water of sprinkling shall wash his garments; and he that touches the water of sprinkling shall be unclean until evening.
“‘Se konsa sa va yon règleman pou tout tan pou yo. Sila ki flite dlo pirifikasyon an, va osi lave rad li, e sila ki touche dlo pirifikasyon an va rete pa pwòp jis rive nan aswè.
22 And whatever the unclean man shall touch shall be unclean, and the soul that touches it shall be unclean till evening.
Anplis, nenpòt bagay ke moun pa pwòp la touche, va vin pa pwòp. Moun ki touche li a, va vin pa pwòp jis rive nan aswè.’”
