Leviticus 20
1 And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
Yahvé habló a Moisés y dijo:
2 “And you say to the sons of Israel: Any man of the sons of Israel, and of the sojourners who is sojourning in Israel, who gives to the Molech from his seed, is certainly put to death; the people of the land stone him with stone;
“Di a los hijos de Israel: Cualquier hombre de entre los hijos de Israel o de los extranjeros que habitan en Israel, si entregare uno de sus hijos a Moloc, será muerto irremisiblemente; el pueblo del país lo apedreará.
3 and I set My face against that man, and have cut him off from the midst of his people, for he has given to the Molech from his seed, so as to defile My sanctuary, and to defile My holy Name.
Yo mismo volveré mi rostro contra el tal hombre y lo extirparé de en medio de su pueblo, por haber dado un hijo suyo a Moloc, contaminando mi Santuario y profanando mi santo nombre.
4 And if the people of the land really hide their eyes from that man, in his giving to the Molech from his seed, so as not to put him to death,
Si el pueblo del país apartare sus ojos de ese hombre que dio uno de sus hijos a Moloc, y no le diere muerte,
5 then I have set My face against that man and against his family, and have cut him off, and all who are going whoring after him, even going whoring after the Molech, from the midst of their people.
yo mismo volveré mi rostro contra aquel hombre y contra su familia, y le extirparé de entre su pueblo, a él y a todos los que como él se prostituyan a Moloc.
6 And the person who turns to those having familiar spirits, and to the wizards, to go whoring after them, I have even set My face against that person, and cut him off from the midst of his people.
Si una persona consultare a los que evocan a los muertos, y a los que adivinan, fornicando en pos de ellos, Yo volveré mi rostro contra ella y la extirparé de en medio de su pueblo.
7 And you have sanctified yourselves, and you have been holy, for I [am] your God YHWH;
Santificaos y sed santos; porque Yo soy Yahvé, vuestro Dios.
8 and you have kept My statutes and have done them; I [am] YHWH, sanctifying you.
Guardad mis leyes y cumplidlas. Yo soy Yahvé quien os santifico.
9 For any man who reviles his father and his mother is certainly put to death; he has reviled his father and his mother: his blood [is] on him.
Quien maldiga a su padre o a su madre será muerto sin remedio; ha maldecido a su padre o a su madre; recaiga sobre él su sangre.
10 And a man who commits adultery with a man’s wife—who commits adultery with the wife of his neighbor—the adulterer and the adulteress are surely put to death.
El hombre que cometa adulterio con la mujer de otro, con la mujer de su prójimo, ambos serán muertos irremisiblemente, tanto el adúltero como la adúltera.
11 And a man who lies with his father’s wife—he has uncovered the nakedness of his father—both of them are certainly put to death; their blood [is] on them.
El que se acueste con la mujer de su padre, descubre la desnudez de su padre; ambos serán muertos irremisiblemente; recaiga sobre ellos su sangre.
12 And a man who lies with his daughter-in-law—both of them are certainly put to death; they have done perversion; their blood [is] on them.
El hombre que se acueste con su nuera, mueran ambos; han hecho cosa abominable; su sangre recaiga sobre ellos.
13 And a man who lies with a male as one lies with a woman—both of them have done an abomination; they are certainly put to death; their blood [is] on them.
El que se acueste con varón, como se hace con mujer; ambos han cometido abominación: mueran irremisiblemente; su sangre recaiga sobre ellos.
14 And a man who takes the woman and her mother—it [is] wickedness; they burn him and them with fire, and there is no wickedness in your midst.
Si uno toma por mujeres a la hija y a la madre, es un crimen. Serán entregados a las llamas tanto él como ellas, para que no haya tal crimen en medio de vosotros.
15 And a man who commits his intercourse with a beast is certainly put to death, and you slay the beast.
El que se ayuntare con bestia, muera irremisiblemente. Mataréis también la bestia.
16 And a woman who draws near to any beast to mate with it—you have even slain the woman and the beast; they are certainly put to death; their blood [is] on them.
Si una mujer se acerca a una bestia para ayuntarse con ella, matarás a la mujer y a la bestia. Morirán irremisiblemente; recaiga sobre ellos su sangre.
17 And a man who takes his sister, a daughter of his father or daughter of his mother, and he has seen her nakedness, and she sees his nakedness—it is a shame; and they have been cut off before the eyes of the sons of their people; he has uncovered the nakedness of his sister; he bears his iniquity.
El que tomare a su hermana, hija de su padre o hija de su madre, viendo así la desnudez de ella, y ella viendo la desnudez de él, es cosa vergonzosa. Se les dará muerte en presencia de los hijos de su pueblo; ha descubierto la desnudez de su hermana; llevará su iniquidad.
18 And a man who lies with a sick woman and has uncovered her nakedness, her fountain he has made bare, and she has uncovered the fountain of her blood—even both of them have been cut off from the midst of their people.
El que se acostare con mujer que padece la indisposición mensual, descubriendo la desnudez de ella, ha descubierto su flujo y ella también ha descubierto el flujo de su sangre. Ambos serán extirpados de entre su pueblo.
19 And you do not uncover the nakedness of your mother’s sister and your father’s sister, because his relation he has made bare; they bear their iniquity.
No descubras la desnudez de la hermana de tu madre, ni de la hermana de tu padre, porque es desnudar su propia carne; por eso llevarán su iniquidad.
20 And a man who lies with his aunt, he has uncovered the nakedness of his uncle; they bear their sin; they die childless.
El que se acostare con su tía, descubre la desnudez de su tía. Llevarán su pecado; morirán sin prole.
21 And a man who takes his brother’s wife—it [is] impurity; he has uncovered the nakedness of his brother; they are childless.
Si uno se casa con la mujer de su hermano, hace cosa impura, pues descubre la desnudez de su hermano; quedarán sin hijos.
22 And you have kept all My statutes and all My judgments, and have done them, and the land does not vomit you out to where I am bringing you in to dwell in it;
Guardad, pues, todas mis leyes y todos mis preceptos y cumplidlos, no sea que os vomite el país adonde os llevo para habitarlo.
23 and you do not walk in the statutes of the nation which I am sending away from before you, for they have done all these, and I am wearied with them.
No caminéis según las costumbres de los pueblos que Yo voy a expulsar de vuestra vista; pues por haber hecho ellos todas esas cosas les tengo asco.
24 And I say to you, You possess their ground, and I give it to you to possess it—a land flowing with milk and honey. I [am] your God YHWH, who has separated you from the peoples.
Mas a vosotros os he dicho: Poseeréis su tierra, la que Yo os daré en herencia, tierra que mana leche y miel. Yo soy Yahvé, vuestro Dios, que os he separado de los demás pueblos.
25 And you have made separation between the pure beasts and the unclean, and between the unclean bird and the pure, and you do not make yourselves abominable by beast or by bird, or by anything which creeps [on] the ground which I have separated to you for unclean.
Habéis de hacer distinción entre animales puros e impuros, y entre aves impuras y puras; y no os contaminéis, ni con animales, ni con aves, ni con lo que anda arrastrándose por el suelo. Todas esas cosas os he señalado como impuras.
26 And you have been holy to Me, for I, YHWH, [am] holy; and I separate you from the peoples to become Mine.
Sed, pues, santos para Mí, porque Yo, Yahvé, soy santo; y os he elegido de entre los pueblos, para que seáis míos.
27 And a man or woman, when there is a familiar spirit in them, or who [are] wizards, are certainly put to death; they stone them with stone; their blood [is] on them.”
El hombre o la mujer que evoque a los muertos o que se dedique a la adivinación muera irremisiblemente; serán apedreados; recaiga sobre ellos su sangre.”
