Leviticus 18
1 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
Alò SENYÈ a te pale avèk Moïse. Li te di:
2 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, I am the LORD your God.
“Pale avèk fis Israël yo. Di yo: ‘Mwen se SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an.
3 After the doings of the land of Egypt, wherein ye dwelt, shall ye not do: and after the doings of the land of Canaan, whither I bring you, shall ye not do: neither shall ye walk in their statutes.
Pinga nou fè sa ki te fèt nan peyi Égypte kote nou te rete a, ni pinga nou fè sa ki fèt nan peyi Canaan kote Mwen ap mennen nou an. Pinga nou mache nan règleman pa yo.
4 My judgments shall ye do, and my statutes shall ye keep, to walk therein: I am the LORD your God.
Se pou nou aji selon jijman pa M e kenbe règleman pa M, pou mache nan yo. Mwen se SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an.
5 Ye shall therefore keep my statutes, and my judgments: which if a man do, he shall live in them: I am the LORD.
Konsa nou va kenbe règleman Mwen yo, ak jijman Mwen yo, pa sila yon nonm kapab viv si li fè yo. Mwen se SENYÈ a.
6 None of you shall approach to any that is near of kin to him, to uncover [their] nakedness: I am the LORD.
“‘Pinga okenn nan nou pwoche okenn fanmi de san nou pou dekouvri nidite li: Mwen se SENYÈ a.
7 The nakedness of thy father, even the nakedness of thy mother, shalt thou not uncover: she is thy mother; thou shalt not uncover her nakedness.
“‘Nou pa pou dekouvri nidite papa nou, ni nidite a manman nou. Li se manman nou; nou pa pou dekouvri nidite li.
8 The nakedness of thy father’s wife shalt thou not uncover: it is thy father’s nakedness.
“‘Nou pa pou dekouvri nidite madanm papa nou. Li se nidite a papa nou.
9 The nakedness of thy sister, the daughter of thy father, or the daughter of thy mother, whether born at home, or born abroad, even their nakedness thou shalt not uncover.
“‘Nidite a sè nou, oswa fi papa nou, oswa fi manman nou, kit li fèt nan kay la, kit li fèt deyò; nidite pa yo, nou pa pou dekouvri yo.
10 The nakedness of thy son’s daughter, or of thy daughter’s daughter, even their nakedness thou shalt not uncover: for theirs is thine own nakedness.
“‘Nidite fi a fis nou, oswa fi a fi nou; nidite yo, nou pa pou dekouvri yo; paske nidite pa yo se pa nou.
11 The nakedness of thy father’s wife’s daughter, begotten of thy father, she is thy sister, thou shalt not uncover her nakedness.
“‘Nidite a pitit fi madanm a papa nou, fèt pou papa nou, li se sè nou, nou pa pou dekouvri nidite li.
12 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy father’s sister: she is thy father’s near kinswoman.
“‘Nou pa pou dekouvri nidite sè papa nou. Li se pwòp relasyon san papa nou.
13 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy mother’s sister: for she is thy mother’s near kinswoman.
“‘Nou pa pou dekouvri nidite sè manman nou, paske li se pwòp san manman nou.
14 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy father’s brother, thou shalt not approach to his wife: she is thine aunt.
“‘Nou pa pou dekouvri nidite frè papa nou. Nou pa pou pwoche madanm li. Li se matant nou.
15 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy daughter in law: she is thy son’s wife; thou shalt not uncover her nakedness.
“‘Nou pa pou dekouvri nidite bèlfi nou. Li se madanm a fis nou. Nou pa pou dekouvri nidite li.
16 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy brother’s wife: it is thy brother’s nakedness.
“‘Nou pa pou dekouvri nidite madanm frè nou. Li se nidite a frè nou.
17 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of a woman and her daughter; thou shalt not take her son’s daughter, or her daughter’s daughter, to uncover her nakedness; they are near kinswomen: it is wickedness.
“‘Nou pa pou dekouvri nidite a yon fanm avèk fi li. Ni nou pa pou pran fi a fis li, ni fi a fi li, pou dekouvri nidite li. Yo se relasyon san. Sa vrèman lèd.
18 And thou shalt not take a woman to her sister, to be a rival [to her], to uncover her nakedness, beside the other in her life time.
“‘Nou pa pou marye yon fanm ansanm avèk sè li pou fè jalouzi pandan sè li toujou vivan an, pou dekouvri nidite li.
19 And thou shalt not approach unto a woman to uncover her nakedness, as long as she is impure by her uncleanness.
“‘Osi nou pa pou pwoche yon fanm pou dekouvri nidite li pandan règ li fè l pa pwòp.
20 And thou shalt not lie carnally with thy neighbour’s wife, to defile thyself with her.
“‘Nou pa pou fè zak seksyèl avèk madanm vwazen nou pou nou ta vin konwonpi ansanm avèk li.
21 And thou shalt not give any of thy seed to make them pass through [the fire] to Molech, neither shalt thou profane the name of thy God: I am the LORD.
“‘Nou pa pou bay okenn nan pitit nou yo pou ofri bay Moloc. Nou pa pou degrade non Bondye. Mwen se SENYÈ a.
22 Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination.
“‘Nou pa pou kouche avèk yon gason jan yon moun ta kouche avèk yon fanm. Li se yon abominasyon.
23 And thou shalt not lie with any beast to defile thyself therewith: neither shall any woman stand before a beast, to lie down thereto: it is confusion.
“‘Osi, nou pa pou fè zak seksyèl avèk okenn bèt pou nou ta vin degrade avèk li. Ni okenn fanm pa pou kanpe devan yon bèt pou kwaze avèk li. Sa se yon pèvèsyon.
24 Defile not ye yourselves in any of these things: for in all these the nations are defiled which I cast out from before you:
“‘Pa konwonpi tèt nou avèk okenn nan bagay sa yo; paske, se pou tout bagay sa yo, nasyon ke Mwen ap mete deyò devan nou yo, te vin konwonpi.
25 And the land is defiled: therefore I do visit the iniquity thereof upon it, and the land vomiteth out her inhabitants.
Paske peyi a gen tan vin konwonpi. Pou sa, Mwen te fè pinisyon li rive sou li, jiskaske peyi a vin krache moun ki rete la yo, mete yo deyò.
26 Ye therefore shall keep my statutes and my judgments, and shall not do any of these abominations; neither the homeborn, nor the stranger that sojourneth among you:
Men pou nou, se pou nou kenbe règleman Mwen yo, jijman Mwen yo, e pa fè okenn nan abominasyon sa yo, ni moun peyi a, ni etranje ki viv pami nou yo
27 (for all these abominations have the men of the land done, which were before you, and the land is defiled; )
(paske moun peyi a ki te devan nou yo, te fè tout abominasyon sa yo, e peyi a te vin konwonpi);
28 that the land vomit not you out also, when ye defile it, as it vomited out the nation that was before you.
pou peyi a pa krache mete nou deyò, si nou ta vin konwonpi li, tankou li te krache mete deyò nasyon ki te devan nou yo.
29 For whosoever shall do any of these abominations, even the souls that do them shall be cut off from among their people.
“‘Paske nenpòt moun ki fè okenn nan abominasyon sa yo, moun sa yo va vin koupe retire de pèp li a.
30 Therefore shall ye keep my charge, that ye do not any of these abominable customs, which were done before you, and that ye defile not yourselves therein: I am the LORD your God.
Konsa, se pou nou kenbe lòd Mwen, pou nou pa pratike okenn nan abitid abominab ki te konn fèt avan nou yo, pou nou pa konwonpi tèt nou avèk yo. Mwen se SENYÈ a, Bondye Nou an.’”
