Leviticus 21
1 And YHWH says to Moses, “Speak to the priests, sons of Aaron, and you have said to them: No one defiles himself for a [dead] person among his people,
Olúwa sọ fún Mose wí pe, “Bá àwọn àlùfáà tí wọ́n jẹ́ ọmọ Aaroni sọ̀rọ̀, kí o sì sọ fún wọn pé, ‘Ẹnikẹ́ni nínú wọn kò gbọdọ̀ sọ ara rẹ̀ di aláìmọ́ nítorí àwọn ènìyàn wọn tí ó kù.
2 except for his relation who [is] near to him: for his mother, and for his father, and for his son, and for his daughter, and for his brother,
Ṣùgbọ́n bí ó bá ṣe àwọn tí ó súnmọ́ ọn bí ìyá rẹ̀, baba rẹ̀, ọmọ rẹ̀ ọkùnrin tàbí obìnrin, àti arákùnrin rẹ̀.
3 and for his sister, the virgin, who is near to him, who has not been to a man; he is defiled for her.
Tàbí fún arábìnrin rẹ̀ tí kò ì tí ì wọ ilé ọkọ tí ó ń gbé lọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀. Nítorí tí arábìnrin bẹ́ẹ̀, ó lè sọ ara rẹ̀ di aláìmọ́.
4 A master [priest] does not defile himself among his people—to defile himself;
Nítorí tí ó jẹ́ olórí, òun kò gbọdọ̀ sọ ara rẹ̀ di aláìmọ́, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kò gbọdọ̀ ba ara rẹ̀ jẹ́ láàrín àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀.
5 they do not make baldness on their head, and they do not shave the corner of their beard, and they do not make a cutting in their flesh;
“‘Àlùfáà kò gbọdọ̀ fá irun orí rẹ̀ bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kò gbọdọ̀ rẹ́ irùngbọ̀n rẹ̀. Kò gbọdọ̀ fi abẹ ya ara rẹ̀ láti fihàn pé òun wà ní ipò ọ̀fọ̀.
6 they are holy to their God, and they do not defile the Name of their God, for the fire-offerings of YHWH, bread of their God, they are bringing near, and have been holy.
Wọ́n gbọdọ̀ jẹ́ mímọ́ fún Ọlọ́run, kí wọ́n má ba à sọ orúkọ Ọlọ́run wọn di àìmọ́, nítorí pé àwọn ni wọ́n ń fi iná sun ẹbọ sí Olúwa wọn, ti ó jẹ oúnjẹ Ọlọ́run wọn. Nítorí náà wọn gbọdọ̀ jẹ́ mímọ́.
7 They do not take a woman of harlotry, or defiled, and they do not take a woman cast out from her husband, for he [is] holy to his God;
“‘Àwọn àlùfáà kò gbọdọ̀ fẹ́ panṣágà tàbí obìnrin tí ó ti fi ọkùnrin ba ara rẹ̀ jẹ́ tàbí obìnrin tí ọkọ rẹ̀ ti kọ̀sílẹ̀ nítorí pé àwọn àlùfáà jẹ́ mímọ́ sí Ọlọ́run wọn.
8 and you have sanctified him, for he is bringing the bread of your God near. He is holy to you, for I, YHWH, sanctifying you, [am] holy.
Àwọn ènìyàn gbọdọ̀ máa kà wọ́n sí mímọ́, nítorí pé àwọn ni wọ́n ń rú ẹbọ oúnjẹ fún mi. Èmi ni Olúwa, mo jẹ́ mímọ́, mo sì ya àwọn ènìyàn mi sí mímọ́.
9 And when a daughter of any priest defiles herself by going whoring—she is defiling her father; she is burned with fire.
“‘Bí ọmọbìnrin àlùfáà kan bá fi iṣẹ́ àgbèrè ba ara rẹ̀ jẹ́, ó dójútì baba rẹ̀, iná ni a ó dá sun ún.
10 And the high priest of his brothers, on whose head the anointing oil is poured, and who has consecrated his hand to put on the garments, does not uncover his head, nor tear his garments,
“‘Lẹ́yìn tí a ti fi òróró yan olórí àlùfáà láàrín àwọn arákùnrin rẹ̀, tí a sì ti fi àmì òróró yàn án láti máa wọ aṣọ àlùfáà, ó gbọdọ̀ tọ́jú irun orí rẹ̀, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kò gbọdọ̀ fa aṣọ rẹ̀ ya láti fihàn pé òun wà ní ipò ọ̀fọ̀.
11 nor does he come beside any dead person; he does not defile himself for his father and for his mother;
Kí ó ma ṣe wọlé tọ òkú lọ, kí ó má ṣe sọ ará rẹ di àìmọ́ nítorí baba tàbí nítorí ìyá rẹ̀.
12 nor does he go out from the sanctuary, nor does he defile the sanctuary of his God, for the separation of the anointing oil of his God [is] on him; I [am] YHWH.
Kò gbọdọ̀ kúrò ní ibi mímọ́ Ọlọ́run tàbí kí ó sọ ọ́ di aláìmọ́ torí pé a ti fi ìfòróróyàn Ọlọ́run yà á sí mímọ́. Èmi ni Olúwa.
13 And he takes a wife in her virginity;
“‘Ọmọbìnrin tí yóò fẹ́ gbọdọ̀ jẹ́ ẹni tí kò mọ ọkùnrin rí.
14 a widow, or cast out, or defiled, [or] a harlot—these he does not take, but he takes a virgin of his own people [for] a wife,
Kò gbọdọ̀ fẹ́ opó tàbí ẹni tí a kọ̀sílẹ̀ tàbí obìnrin tí ó ti fi àgbèrè ba ara rẹ̀ jẹ́, ṣùgbọ́n kí ó fẹ́ obìnrin tí kò mọ ọkùnrin rí, láàrín àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀.
15 and he does not defile his seed among his people; for I [am] YHWH, sanctifying him.”
Kí ó má ba à sọ di aláìmọ́ nínú àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀. Èmi ni Olúwa tí ó sọ ọ́ di mímọ́.’”
16 And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
Olúwa sì bá Mose sọ̀rọ̀ pé,
17 “Speak to Aaron, saying, No man of your seed throughout their generations in whom there is blemish draws near to bring the bread of his God near,
“Sọ fún Aaroni pé, ‘Ẹnikẹ́ni nínú irú-ọmọ rẹ̀ ní ìran-ìran wọn, tí ó bá ní ààrùn kan, kí ó má ṣe súnmọ́ tòsí láti rú ẹbọ ohun jíjẹ sí Ọlọ́run rẹ̀.
18 for no man in whom [is] a blemish draws near: a man blind, or lame, or disfigured, or deformed,
Ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá ní àbùkù kò gbọdọ̀ súnmọ́ ibi ẹbọ náà. Kò gbọdọ̀ sí afọ́jú tàbí arọ, alábùkù ara tàbí àwọn tí ara wọn kò pé.
19 or a man in whom there is a breach in the foot, or a breach in the hand,
Kò gbọdọ̀ sí ẹnikẹ́ni yálà ó rọ lápá lẹ́sẹ̀,
20 or hunchbacked, or a dwarf, or [with] a defect in his eye, or [with] an itch, or [with] a scab, or [with] a broken testicle.
tàbí tí ó jẹ́ abuké, tàbí tí ó ya aràrá tàbí tí ó ní àìsàn ojú tàbí tí ó ní egbò tàbí tí a ti yọ nǹkan ọmọkùnrin rẹ̀.
21 No man in whom is blemish (of the seed of Aaron the priest) comes near to bring the fire-offerings of YHWH near; blemish [is] in him; he does not come near to bring the bread of his God near.
Ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó ní àbùkù nínú irú-ọmọ Aaroni àlùfáà kò gbọdọ̀ súnmọ́ tòsí láti rú ẹbọ tí fi iná sun sí Olúwa. Nítorí pé ó jẹ́ alábùkù, kò gbọdọ̀ súnmọ́ tòsí láti rú ẹbọ àkàrà sí Ọlọ́run rẹ̀.
22 Bread of his God—from the most holy things and from the holy things—he eats;
Ó lè jẹ́ oúnjẹ Ọlọ́run rẹ̀ tàbí èyí tí ó mọ́ jùlọ, ṣùgbọ́n torí pé ó ní àbùkù kò gbọdọ̀ súnmọ́ ibi aṣọ títa tàbí pẹpẹ.
23 only, he does not come toward the veil, and he does not draw near to the altar; for blemish [is] in him; and he does not defile My sanctuaries; for I [am] YHWH, sanctifying them.”
Nípa ṣíṣe bẹ́ẹ̀ yóò ba ibi mímọ́ mi jẹ́ torí pé, Èmi Olúwa ló ti sọ wọ́n di mímọ́.’”
24 And Moses speaks to Aaron, and to his sons, and to all the sons of Israel.
Wọ̀nyí ni àwọn ohun tí Mose sọ fún Aaroni, àwọn ọmọ Aaroni àti gbogbo ọmọ Israẹli.
