Leviticus 11
1 And YHWH speaks to Moses and to Aaron, saying to them,
Yahvé habló a Moisés y a Aarón, diciéndoles:
2 “Speak to the sons of Israel, saying, This [is] the beast which you eat out of all the beasts which [are] on the earth:
“Hablad a los hijos de Israel, diciendo: “Estos son los seres vivos que podéis comer de entre todos los animales que hay en la tierra.
3 any dividing a hoof, and cleaving the cleft of the hooves, bringing up the cud, among the beasts—you eat it.
Todo lo que tiene pezuña hendida y rumia entre los animales, eso podéis comer.
4 Only, this you do not eat, of those bringing up the cud, and of those dividing the hoof: the camel, though it is bringing up the cud, yet the hoof is not dividing—it [is] unclean to you;
“‘Sin embargo, no comeréis de los que rumian, ni de los que parten la pezuña: el camello, porque rumia pero no tiene la pezuña partida, es inmundo para vosotros.
5 and the hyrax, though it is bringing up the cud, yet the hoof is not divided—it [is] unclean to you;
El huracán, porque mastica el bolo alimenticio, pero no tiene la pezuña partida, es impuro para ti.
6 and the hare, though it is bringing up the cud, yet the hoof has not divided—it [is] unclean to you;
La liebre, por masticar el bolo alimenticio, pero sin tener la pezuña abierta, es impura para ustedes.
7 and the sow, though it is dividing the hoof, and cleaving the cleft of the hoof, yet it does not bring up the cud—it [is] unclean to you.
El cerdo, porque tiene la pezuña hendida y es de pezuña hendida, pero no rumia, es inmundo para ti.
8 You do not eat of their flesh, and you do not come against their carcass—they [are] unclean to you.
No comerás su carne. No tocarás sus cadáveres. Son impuros para ti.
9 This you eat of all which [are] in the waters: anything that has fins and scales in the waters, in the seas, and in the brooks, them you eat;
“‘Puedes comer de todo lo que está en las aguas: todo lo que tiene aletas y escamas en las aguas, en los mares y en los ríos, eso puedes comer.
10 and anything that does not have fins and scales in the seas, and in the brooks, of any teeming creature of the waters, and of any creature which lives, which [is] in the waters—they [are] an abomination to you;
Todo lo que no tiene aletas y escamas en los mares y ríos, todo lo que se mueve en las aguas, y todos los seres vivos que están en las aguas, son una abominación para ti,
11 indeed, they are an abomination to you; you do not eat of their flesh, and you detest their carcass.
y los detestarás. No comerás su carne, y aborrecerás sus cadáveres.
12 Anything that does not have fins and scales in the waters—it [is] an abomination to you.
Todo lo que no tenga aletas ni escamas en las aguas es una abominación para ti.
13 And these you detest of the bird—they are not eaten, they [are] an abomination: the eagle, and the bearded vulture, and the osprey,
“‘Aborrecerás éstas entre las aves; no se comerán porque son una abominación: el águila, el buitre, el buitre negro,
14 and the kite, and the falcon after its kind,
el milano real, cualquier tipo de milano negro,
15 every raven after its kind,
cualquier tipo de cuervo,
16 and the ostrich, and the nightjar [[or male ostrich]], and the seagull, and the hawk after its kind,
el búho cornudo, el búho chillón, la gaviota, cualquier tipo de halcón,
17 and the little owl, and the cormorant, and the great owl,
el búho pequeño, el cormorán, el búho grande,
18 and the waterhen, and the pelican, and the Egyptian vulture,
el búho blanco, el búho del desierto, el águila pescadora,
19 and the stork, the heron after its kind, and the hoopoe, and the bat.
la cigüeña, cualquier tipo de garza, la abubilla y el murciélago.
20 Every teeming creature which is flying, which is going on four [legs]—it [is] an abomination to you.
“‘Todos los insectos voladores que andan a cuatro patas son una abominación para ti.
21 Only, this you eat of any teeming thing which is flying, which is going on four, which has legs above its feet, to move with them on the earth;
Sin embargo, puedes comer estos: de todos los reptiles alados que andan a cuatro patas, que tienen patas largas y articuladas para saltar sobre la tierra.
22 these of them you eat: the locust after its kind, and the bald locust after its kind, and the cricket after its kind, and the grasshopper after its kind;
Incluso de estos podréis comer: cualquier tipo de langosta, cualquier tipo de cateta, cualquier tipo de grillo y cualquier tipo de saltamontes.
23 and every teeming thing which is flying, which has four feet—it [is] an abomination to you.
Pero todos los reptiles alados que tienen cuatro patas son una abominación para ustedes.
24 And you are made unclean by these; anyone who is coming against their carcass is unclean until the evening;
“‘Por ellos quedarás impuro: el que toque sus cadáveres quedará impuro hasta la noche.
25 and anyone who is lifting up of their carcass washes his garments, and has been unclean until the evening—
El que levante alguna parte de sus cadáveres se lavará la ropa y quedará impuro hasta la noche.
26 even every beast which is dividing the hoof, and is not cloven-footed, and is not bringing up the cud—they [are] unclean to you; anyone who is coming against them is unclean.
“‘Todo animal que tenga una pezuña partida que no esté completamente dividida, o que no rumie, es impuro para ti. Todo el que los toque será impuro.
27 And anything going on its paws, among all the beasts which are going on four—they [are] unclean to you; anyone who is coming against their carcass is unclean until the evening;
Todo lo que vaya sobre sus patas, entre todos los animales que van a cuatro patas, son inmundos para ti. El que toque sus cadáveres quedará impuro hasta la noche.
28 and he who is lifting up their carcass washes his garments, and has been unclean until the evening—they [are] unclean to you.
El que levante su cadáver se lavará la ropa y quedará impuro hasta la noche. Son inmundos para ti.
29 And this [is] the unclean to you among the teeming things which are teeming on the earth: the weasel, and the muroid, and the tortoise [[or large lizard]] after its kind,
“‘Estos son los inmundos para vosotros entre los reptiles que se arrastran por la tierra: la comadreja, la rata, cualquier clase de lagarto grande,
30 and the gecko [[or ferret]], and the chameleon, and the lizard, and the snail, and the mole;
la salamanquesa, y el lagarto monitor, el lagarto de pared, el eslizón y el camaleón.
31 these [are] the unclean to you among all which are teeming; anyone who is coming against them in their death is unclean until the evening.
Estos son los impuros para vosotros entre todos los que se arrastran. El que los toque cuando estén muertos será impuro hasta la noche.
32 And anything on which anyone of them falls, in their death, is unclean, of any vessel of wood or garment or skin or sack, any vessel in which work is done is brought into water, and has been unclean until the evening, then it has been clean;
Todo lo que caiga sobre ellos cuando estén muertos será impuro; ya sea un recipiente de madera, ropa, piel o saco, cualquiera que sea el recipiente con el que se haga cualquier trabajo, deberá ser puesto en agua, y quedará impuro hasta la noche. Entonces quedará limpio.
33 and any earthen vessel, into the midst of which [any] one of them falls, all that [is] in its midst is unclean, and you break it.
Toda vasija de barro en la que caiga cualquiera de ellas y todo lo que haya en ella será impuro. Lo romperás.
34 Of all the food which is eaten, that on which comes [such] water, is unclean, and all drink which is drunk in any [such] vessel is unclean;
Todo alimento que se pueda comer y que esté empapado en agua será impuro. Toda la bebida que se beba en cualquiera de esos recipientes será inmunda.
35 and anything on which [any] of their carcass falls is unclean; oven or double pots, it is broken down, they [are] unclean, indeed, they are unclean to you.
Todo aquello sobre lo que caiga una parte de su cuerpo será inmundo; ya sea el horno o la cocina para las ollas, se romperá en pedazos. Son inmundos, y serán inmundos para vosotros.
36 Only, a fountain or pit, a collection of water, is clean, but that which is coming against their carcass is unclean;
Sin embargo, el manantial o la cisterna donde se recoja el agua serán limpios, pero lo que toque su cadáver será impuro.
37 and when [any] of their carcass falls on any sown seed which is sown—it [is] clean;
Si parte de su cadáver cae sobre cualquier semilla que se vaya a sembrar, será limpia.
38 and when water is put on the seed, and [any] of its carcass has fallen on it—it [is] unclean to you.
Pero si se pone agua sobre la semilla, y parte de su cadáver cae sobre ella, será impuro para ti.
39 And when any of the beasts which are for food for you dies, he who is coming against its carcass is unclean until the evening;
“‘Si algún animal de los que puedes comer muere, el que toque su cadáver quedará impuro hasta la noche.
40 and he who is eating of its carcass washes his garments, and has been unclean until the evening; and he who is lifting up its carcass washes his garments, and has been unclean until the evening.
El que coma de su cadáver lavará sus vestidos y quedará impuro hasta la noche. El que lleve su cadáver lavará su ropa y quedará impuro hasta la noche.
41 And every teeming thing which is teeming on the earth is an abomination, it is not eaten;
“‘Todo lo que se arrastra por la tierra es una abominación. No se comerá.
42 anything going on the belly, and any going on four, to every multiplier of feet, to every teeming thing which is teeming on the earth—you do not eat them, for they [are] an abomination;
Todo lo que ande sobre su vientre, y todo lo que ande a cuatro patas, o todo lo que tenga muchas patas, todo lo que se arrastra sobre la tierra, no lo comeréis, porque es una abominación.
43 you do not make yourselves abominable with any teeming thing which is teeming, nor do you make yourselves unclean with them, so that you have been unclean with them.
No os haréis abominables con ningún reptil que se arrastre. No os haréis inmundos con ellos, para que os contaminéis con ellos.
44 For I [am] your God YHWH, and you have sanctified yourselves, and you have been holy, for I [am] holy; and you do not defile your persons with any teeming thing which is creeping on the earth;
Porque yo soy Yahvé, vuestro Dios. Santificaos, pues, y sed santos, porque yo soy santo. No os contaminaréis con ningún animal que se mueva sobre la tierra.
45 for I [am] YHWH who am bringing you up out of the land of Egypt to become your God; and you have been holy, for I [am] holy.
Porque yo soy Yahvé, que os he sacado de la tierra de Egipto para ser vuestro Dios. Seréis, pues, santos, porque yo soy santo.
46 This [is] a law of the beasts, and of the bird, and of every living creature which is moving in the waters, and of every creature which is teeming on the earth,
“‘Esta es la ley del animal, del ave y de todo ser viviente que se mueve en las aguas, y de todo ser que se arrastra por la tierra,
47 to make separation between the unclean and the pure, and between the beast that is eaten, and the beast that is not eaten.”
para distinguir entre lo inmundo y lo limpio, y entre lo que se puede comer y lo que no se puede comer’”.
