Leviticus 20
1 The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
Y HABLÓ Jehová á Moisés diciendo:
2 "Moreover, you shall tell the children of Israel, 'Anyone of the children of Israel, or of the foreigners who sojourn in Israel, who gives any of his offspring to Molech; he shall surely be put to death. The people of the land shall stone him with stones.
Dirás asimismo á los hijos de Israel: Cualquier varón de los hijos de Israel, ó de los extranjeros que peregrinan en Israel, que diere de su simiente á Moloch, de seguro morirá: el pueblo de la tierra lo apedreará con piedras.
3 I also will set my face against that person, and will cut him off from among his people because he has given of his offspring to Molech, to defile my sanctuary, and to profane my holy name.
Y yo pondré mi rostro contra el tal varón, y lo cortaré de entre su pueblo; por cuanto dió de su simiente á Moloch, contaminando mi santuario, y amancillando mi santo nombre.
4 If the people of the land all hide their eyes from that person, when he gives of his offspring to Molech, and do not put him to death;
Que si escondiere el pueblo de la tierra sus ojos de aquel varón que hubiere dado de su simiente á Moloch, para no matarle,
5 then I will set my face against that man, and against his family, and will cut him off, and all who play the prostitute after him, to play the prostitute with Molech, from among their people.
Entonces yo pondré mi rostro contra aquel varón, y contra su familia, y le cortaré de entre su pueblo, con todos los que fornicaron en pos de él, prostituyéndose con Moloch.
6 "'The person that turns to spirits of the dead, and to familiar spirits, to prostitute himself with them, I will even set my face against that person, and will cut him off from among his people.
Y la persona que atendiere á encantadores ó adivinos, para prostituirse tras de ellos, yo pondré mi rostro contra la tal persona, y cortaréla de entre su pueblo.
7 "'Sanctify yourselves therefore, and be holy; for I am the LORD your God.
Santificaos, pues, y sed santos, porque yo Jehová soy vuestro Dios.
8 You shall keep my statutes, and do them. I am the LORD who sanctifies you.
Y guardad mis estatutos, y ponedlos por obra: Yo Jehová que os santifico.
9 "'For everyone who curses his father or his mother shall surely be put to death: he has cursed his father or his mother; his blood shall be upon him.
Porque varón que maldijere á su padre ó á su madre, de cierto morirá: á su padre ó á su madre maldijo; su sangre será sobre él.
10 "'The man who commits adultery with another man's wife shall surely be put to death, both the adulterer and the adulteress.
Y el hombre que adulterare con la mujer de otro, el que cometiere adulterio con la mujer de su prójimo, indefectiblemente se hará morir al adúltero y á la adúltera.
11 The man who lies with his father's wife has uncovered his father's nakedness: both of them shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.
Y cualquiera que se echare con la mujer de su padre, la desnudez de su padre descubrió: ambos han de ser muertos; su sangre será sobre ellos.
12 "'If a man lies with his daughter-in-law, both of them shall surely be put to death: they have committed a perversion; their blood shall be upon them.
Y cualquiera que durmiere con su nuera, ambos han de morir: hicieron confusión; su sangre será sobre ellos.
13 "'If a man has sexual relations with a male, as with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.
Y cualquiera que tuviere ayuntamiento con varón como con mujer, abominación hicieron: entrambos han de ser muertos; sobre ellos será su sangre.
14 "'If a man takes a wife and her mother, it is wickedness: they shall be burned with fire, both he and they; that there may be no wickedness among you.
Y el que tomare mujer y á la madre de ella, comete vileza: quemarán en fuego á él y á ellas, porque no haya vileza entre vosotros.
15 "'If a man lies with an animal, he shall surely be put to death; and you shall kill the animal.
Y cualquiera que tuviere cópula con bestia, ha de ser muerto; y mataréis á la bestia.
16 "'If a woman approaches any animal, and lies down with it, you shall kill the woman, and the animal: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.
Y la mujer que se allegare á algún animal, para tener ayuntamiento con él, á la mujer y al animal matarás: morirán infaliblemente; será su sangre sobre ellos.
17 "'If a man takes his sister, his father's daughter, or his mother's daughter, and sees her nakedness, and she sees his nakedness; it is a shameful thing; and they shall be cut off in the sight of the children of their people: he has uncovered his sister's nakedness; he shall bear his iniquity.
Y cualquiera que tomare á su hermana, hija de su padre ó hija de su madre, y viere su desnudez, y ella viere la suya, cosa es execrable; por tanto serán muertos á ojos de los hijos de su pueblo: descubrió la desnudez de su hermana; su pecado llevará.
18 "'If a man lies with a woman having her monthly period, and uncovers her nakedness; he has made naked her fountain, and she has uncovered the fountain of her blood: and both of them shall be cut off from among their people.
Y cualquiera que durmiere con mujer menstruosa, y descubriere su desnudez, su fuente descubrió, y ella descubrió la fuente de su sangre: ambos serán cortados de entre su pueblo.
19 "'You shall not uncover the nakedness of your mother's sister, nor of your father's sister; for he has made naked his close relative: they shall bear their iniquity.
La desnudez de la hermana de tu madre, ó de la hermana de tu padre, no descubrirás: por cuanto descubrió su parienta, su iniquidad llevarán.
20 If a man lies with his uncle's wife, he has uncovered his uncle's nakedness: they shall bear their sin; they shall die childless.
Y cualquiera que durmiere con la mujer del hermano de su padre, la desnudez del hermano de su padre descubrió; su pecado llevarán; morirán sin hijos.
21 "'If a man takes his brother's wife, it is an impurity: he has uncovered his brother's nakedness; they shall be childless.
Y el que tomare la mujer de su hermano, es suciedad; la desnudez de su hermano descubrió; sin hijos serán.
22 "'You shall therefore keep all my statutes, and all my ordinances, and do them; that the land, where I am bringing you to dwell, may not vomit you out.
Guardad, pues, todos mis estatutos y todos mis derechos, y ponedlos por obra: y no os vomitará la tierra, en la cual yo os introduzco para que habitéis en ella.
23 You shall not walk in the customs of the nation, which I am casting out before you: for they did all these things, and therefore I abhorred them.
Y no andéis en las prácticas de la gente que yo echaré de delante de vosotros: porque ellos hicieron todas estas cosas, y los tuve en abominación.
24 But I have said to you, "You shall inherit their land, and I will give it to you to possess it, a land flowing with milk and honey." I am the LORD your God, who has separated you from the peoples.
Empero á vosotros os he dicho: Vosotros poseeréis la tierra de ellos, y yo os la daré para que la poseáis por heredad, tierra que fluye leche y miel: Yo Jehová vuestro Dios, que os he apartado de los pueblos.
25 "'You shall therefore make a distinction between the clean animal and the unclean, and between the unclean fowl and the clean: and you shall not make yourselves abominable by animal, or by bird, or by anything with which the ground teems, which I have separated from you as unclean for you.
Por tanto, vosotros haréis diferencia entre animal limpio é inmundo, y entre ave inmunda y limpia: y no ensuciéis vuestras personas en los animales, ni en las aves, ni en ninguna cosa que va arrastrando por la tierra, las cuales os he apartado por inmundas.
26 You shall be holy to me: for I, the LORD, am holy, and have set you apart from the peoples, that you should be mine.
Habéis, pues, de serme santos, porque yo Jehová soy santo, y os he apartado de los pueblos, para que seáis míos.
27 "'A man or a woman that is a medium, or is a wizard, shall surely be put to death: they shall stone them with stones; their blood shall be upon them.'"
Y el hombre ó la mujer en quienes hubiere espíritu pithónico ó de adivinación, han de ser muertos: los apedrearán con piedras; su sangre sobre ellos.
