Leviticus 22
1 And he spoke Yahweh to Moses saying.
The Lord told Moses,
2 Speak to Aaron and to sons his so they may separate themselves from [the] holy things of [the] people of Israel and not they will profane [the] name of holiness my which they [are] setting apart as holy to me I [am] Yahweh.
“Tell Aaron and his sons to be dedicated when dealing with the holy offerings that the Israelites have dedicated to me, so that they don't dishonor my holy character. I am the Lord.
3 Say to them to generations your every man - who he will draw near from all offspring your to the holy things which they will set apart as holy [the] people of Israel to Yahweh and uncleanness his [is] on him and it will be cut off the person that from to before me I [am] Yahweh.
Tell them: These rules apply for all future generations. If any of your descendants in an unclean state comes close to the holy offerings that the Israelites dedicate to honor the Lord, that person must be expelled from my presence. I am the Lord.
4 A man a man from [the] offspring of Aaron and he [is] having a serious skin disease or [is] discharging in the holy things not he will eat until that he will be pure and who [-ever] touches any [thing] unclean of a corpse or anyone whom it will go out from him a laying of seed.
If one of Aaron's descendants has a skin disease or a discharge, he is not allowed to eat the holy offerings until he is clean. Anyone who touches anything made unclean by a dead body or by a man who has had a release of semen,
5 Or anyone who he will touch any swarming thing which it is unclean to him or anyone who he is unclean to him to all uncleanness his.
or anyone who touches an unclean animal or an unclean person, (whatever the uncleanness is),
6 Anyone who it will touch it and it will be unclean until the evening and not he will eat any of the holy things that except he has washed body his with water.
anyone who touches anything like this will remain unclean until evening. He is not allowed to eat from the holy offerings unless he has washed himself with water.
7 And it will go the sun and he will be clean and after he will eat any of the holy things for [is] food his it.
At sunset he will become clean, and then he is allowed to eat from the holy offerings because they provide his food.
8 A carcass and a torn animal not he will eat to become unclean by it I [am] Yahweh.
He must not eat anything that's died, or killed by wild animals, because that would make him unclean. I am the Lord.
9 And they will keep duty my and not they will bear on it sin and they will die by it for they will profane it I [am] Yahweh [who] sets apart as holy them.
The priests must do as I demand, so that they don't become guilty and die because they have not done so, treating my requirements with contempt. I am the Lord who makes them holy.
10 And any stranger not he will eat a holy thing a resident alien of a priest and a hired laborer not he will eat a holy thing.
Anyone who isn't part of a priest's family is not allowed eat the holy offerings. This also applies to a priest's guest or his paid worker.
11 And a priest if he will acquire a person [the] acquisition of money his he he will eat in it and [the] one born of household his they they will eat in food his.
However, if a priest uses his own money to buy a slave, or if a slave is born in the priest's household, then that slave is allowed to eat his food.
12 And a daughter of a priest if she will belong to a man strange she in [the] contribution of the holy things not she will eat.
If the priest's daughter gets married to a man who isn't a priest, she is not allowed to eat the holy offerings.
13 And a daughter of a priest if she will be a widow and a divorced [woman] and offspring not [belongs] to her and she will return to [the] house of father her like youth her any of [the] food of father her she will eat and any stranger not he will eat in it.
But if a priest's daughter without children is widowed or divorced and goes back to her father's house, she is allowed to eat her father's food as she did when she was growing up. But no one outside the priest's family can eat it.
14 And anyone if he will eat a holy thing by inadvertence and he will add fifth its to it and he will give to the priest the holy thing.
Anyone who eats a holy offering by mistake must pay compensation by adding a fifth to its value, and give it all to the priest.
15 And not they will profane [the] holy things of [the] people of Israel which they will lift up to Yahweh.
The priests must not make the holy offerings the Israelites present to the Lord unclean
16 And they will cause to bear them iniquity of guilt when eat they holy things their for I [am] Yahweh [who] sets apart as holy them.
by allowing the people to eat them and in so doing take upon themselves the punishment for guilt. For I am the Lord who makes them holy.”
17 And he spoke Yahweh to Moses saying.
The Lord told Moses,
18 Speak to Aaron and to sons his and to all [the] people of Israel and you will say to them a person a person from [the] house of Israel and of the sojourner[s] in Israel who he will present present his for all vows their and for all freewill offerings their which they will present to Yahweh to a burnt offering.
“Tell Aaron, his sons and all the Israelites: If you or foreigner living with you wants to make a gift as a burnt offering to the Lord, whether it's to fulfill a promise or as a freewill offering, this is what you are to do.
19 For acceptance your unblemished a male among the cattle among the young rams and among the goats.
If it is to be accepted on your behalf you must offer a male without defects from the herds of cattle, sheep, or goats.
20 All that [is] in it a blemish not you will present for not for acceptance it will be of you.
Don't present anything with a defect because it won't be accepted on your behalf.
21 And anyone if he will present a sacrifice of peace offering to Yahweh to fulfill a vow or to a freewill offering in the herd or in the flock unblemished it will be for acceptance any blemish not it will be in it.
If you want to present a peace offering to the Lord from the herd or flock to fulfill a promise or as a freewill offering, in order to be acceptable the animal must be perfect, completely without defects.
22 Blindness or a fracture or a mutilation or a wart or eczema or scabs not you will present these to Yahweh and a fire offering not you must give any of them on the altar to Yahweh.
Don't present to the Lord an animal that is blind, injured, or damaged in some way, or has warts, skin sores, or scabs. Don't place any animal that has these on the altar as a food offering to the Lord.
23 And an ox and a sheep [having] something enlarged and [having] something stunted a freewill offering you will offer it and for a vow not it will be accepted.
However, you can present a freewill offering of a bull or sheep that has a leg that is too long or too short, but not if it is a sacrifice to fulfill a promise.
24 And [one which] is squashed and [one which] is crushed and [one which] is torn and [one which] is cut not you will present to Yahweh and in land your not you will do [it].
Don't present to the Lord an animal with testicles that are accidentally or deliberately damaged. You are not allowed to sacrifice any of these damaged animals in your land.
25 And from [the] hand of a son of foreignness not you must present [the] food of God your any of all these [animals] for disfigurement their [is] in them a blemish [is] in them not they will be accepted for you.
Nor are you allowed to accept such animals from a foreigner to be damaged and defective.”
26 And he spoke Yahweh to Moses saying.
The Lord told Moses,
27 An ox or a young ram or a goat if it will be born and it will be seven days under mother its and from [the] day eighth and onwards it will be accepted to a present of a fire offering to Yahweh.
“When a bull, a sheep, or a goat is born, it must stay with its mother for seven days. After eight days it can be accepted as a food offering to the Lord.
28 And an ox or a sheep it and young its not you must cut [the] throat of in a day one.
However, don't kill a bull or a sheep and its young on the same day.
29 And if you will sacrifice a sacrifice of thanksgiving to Yahweh for acceptance your you will sacrifice [it].
When you present a thank offering to the Lord, make sure to do so in a way that it will be accepted on your behalf.
30 On the day that it will be eaten not you will leave over any of it until morning I [am] Yahweh.
It has to be eaten on the same day. Don't leave any of it until morning. I am the Lord.
31 And you will keep commandments my and you will do them I [am] Yahweh.
Keep my rules and put them into practice. I am the Lord.
32 And not you will profane [the] name of holiness my and I will show myself holy in among [the] people of Israel I [am] Yahweh [who] sets apart as holy you.
Don't disgrace my holy character. I must be accepted as holy by you. I am the Lord who makes you holy.
33 Who brought out you from [the] land of Egypt to become for you God I [am] Yahweh.
I am the one who led you out of Egypt to be your God. I am the Lord.”
