Leviticus 21
1 And the Lord said unto Moses, Speak unto the priests the sons of Aaron, and say unto them, None [of them] shall defile himself on the dead, among his people;
Y Jehová dijo a Moisés: Habla a los sacerdotes, hijos de Aarón, y díles que por ninguna alma se contaminen en sus pueblos:
2 But on his kin, that is near unto him, [that is, ] on his mother, and on his father, and on his son, and on his daughter, and on his brother,
Mas por su pariente cercano a sí, como por su madre, o por su padre, o por su hijo, o por su hija, o por su hermano,
3 And on his sister that is a virgin, that is nigh unto him, who hath had no husband: on her may he defile himself.
O por su hermana virgen cercana a sí, que no haya tenido varón, por ella se contaminará.
4 The chief man among his people shall not defile himself, to be profaned thereby.
No se contaminará por el príncipe en sus pueblos ensuciándose.
5 They shall not make any baldness upon their head, and the corner of their beard shall they not shave off, and in their flesh shall they not make any incision.
No harán calva en su cabeza, ni raerán la punta de su barba, ni en su carne harán rasguño.
6 Holy shall they be unto their God, and they shall not profane the name of their God; for the fire-offerings of the Lord, the bread of their God, do they offer, they shall therefore be holy.
Santos serán a su Dios, y no ensuciarán el nombre de su Dios, porque los fuegos de Jehová, el pan de su Dios ofrecen, por tanto serán santos.
7 A woman that is a harlot, or one profaned, shall they not take; and a woman put away from her husband shall they not take; for holy is he unto his God.
Mujer ramera, o infame no tomarán: ni tomarán mujer repudiada de su marido: porque es santo a su Dios.
8 And thou shalt sanctify him; for the bread of thy God doth he offer: holy shall he be unto thee; for I the Lord, who sanctify you, am holy.
Y santificarle has, porque el pan de tu Dios ofrece: santo será a ti, porque santo soy yo Jehová vuestro santificador.
9 And if the daughter of any priest profane herself by committing incest, her father doth she profane: with fire shall she be burnt.
Ítem, la hija del varón sacerdote, cuando comenzare a fornicar, a su padre contamina, será quemada en fuego.
10 And the priest that is highest among his brethren, upon whose head the anointing oil hath been poured, and who hath been consecrated to put on the garments, shall not let the hair of his head grow long, and his garments shall he not rend;
Ítem, el sumo sacerdote entre sus hermanos, sobre cuya cabeza fue derramado el aceite de la unción, y que hinchió su mano para vestir las vestiduras, no descubrirá su cabeza, ni romperá sus vestidos.
11 Neither shall he go in to any dead body; even on his father, and on his mother shall he not defile himself.
Ni entrará a ninguna persona muerta, ni por su padre, o por su madre se contaminará.
12 And out of the sanctuary shall he not go, that he may not profane the sanctuary of his God; for the crown of the anointing oil of his God is upon him: I am the Lord.
Ni saldrá del santuario, ni ensuciará el santuario de su Dios; porque la corona del aceite de la unción de su Dios está sobre él: Yo Jehová.
13 And he shall take a wife in her virgin state.
Ítem, él tomará mujer con su virginidad.
14 A widow, and a divorced woman, and one profaned, [and] a harlot, these shall he not take; but a virgin of his own people shall he take for wife;
Viuda, o repudiada, o infame, o ramera, estas no tomará: mas virgen tomará de sus pueblos: por mujer.
15 So that he may not profane his seed among his people; for I, the Lord, do sanctify him.
Y no ensuciará su simiente en sus pueblos: porque yo Jehová soy el que le santifico.
16 And the Lord spoke unto Moses, saying,
Ítem, Jehová habló a Moisés, diciendo:
17 Speak unto Aaron, saying, Whosoever of thy seed in their generations it be on whom there is any blemish, shall not approach to offer the bread of his God.
Habla a Aarón, y díle: El varón de tu simiente en sus generaciones, en el cual hubiere falta, no se allegará para ofrecer el pan de su Dios:
18 For whatsoever man it be on whom there is a blemish, shall not approach: a blind, or a lame man, or one that hath a flattened nose, or a man one of whose limbs is too long,
Porque ningún varón, en el cual hubiere falta, se allegará: varón ciego, o cojo, o falto, o sobrado de nariz,
19 Or a man who hath a broken foot, or a broken hand,
O varón en el cual hubiere quebradura de pie, o quebradura de mano:
20 Or a crookbacked, or a dwarf, or one that hath a blemish in his eye, or the itch, or the scurvy, or the testicles broken.
O corcobado, o lagañoso, o que tuviere nube en el ojo, o que tuviere sarna, o empeine, o compañón quebrado.
21 Every man on whom there is a blemish, of the seed of Aaron the priest, shall not come nigh to offer the fire-offerings of the Lord: there is a blemish on him; he shall not come nigh to offer the bread of his God.
Ningún varón de la simiente de Aarón sacerdote, en el cual hubiere falta, se allegará para ofrecer las ofrendas encendidas de Jehová. ¿ Hay falta en él? no se allegará a ofrecer el pan de su Dios.
22 The brewed of his God, both of the most holy, and of the holy things he may eat.
El pan de su Dios de las santidades de santidades, y las cosas santificadas comerá.
23 Only unto the vail, and unto the altar shall he not come nigh, because there is a blemish on him; that he profane not my holy things; for I the Lord do sanctify them.
Empero no entrará del velo adentro, ni se allegará al altar, por cuanto hay falta en él: y no ensuciará mi santuario, porque yo Jehová soy el que los santifico.
24 And Moses spoke thus unto Aaron, and to his sons, and unto all the children of Israel.
Y Moisés habló a Aarón, y a sus hijos, y a todos los hijos de Israel.
