Leviticus 24
1 Yahweh also said to Moses/me,
Le Seigneur parla encore à Moïse, disant:
2 “Command the Israeli people to continually bring to you clear oil made from pressed olives to burn in the lamps [in the Sacred Tent], in order that those lamps will burn all the time.
Ordonne aux enfants d’Israël qu’ils t’apportent de l’huile d’olives très pure et très claire pour entretenir des lampes perpétuellement,
3 Outside the curtain of the Very Holy Place, Aaron must take care of the lamps in my presence continually, in order that they will burn all during the night. That regulation must be obeyed forever.
En dehors du voile de témoignage dans le tabernacle d’alliance. Et Aaron les disposera depuis le soir jusqu’au matin devant le Seigneur par un culte et un rite perpétuel en vos générations.
4 Those lampstands that burn in my presence must be taken care of continually.
C’est sur le chandelier très pur qu’elles seront toujours placées en la présence du Seigneur.
5 “Also, [each week] you must take some fine flour and bake twelve [very big] loaves of bread, using about four quarts/liters of flour for each loaf.
Tu prendras aussi de la fleur de farine, et tu cuiras avec elle douze pains qui auront chacun deux décimes;
6 Put the loaves in two rows, with six loaves in each row, on the table covered with pure gold, in my presence.
Tu en placeras six des deux côtés sur la table très pure devant le Seigneur;
7 Along each row, place [in some gold cups] some pure incense to be burned to be an offering to me instead of the bread.
Et tu mettras sur eux de l’encens le plus luisant, afin que le pain soit un monument de l’oblation du Seigneur.
8 New/Fresh loaves of bread must be put [on the table] each Sabbath day, to signify the agreement that will never end, that I have made with you Israeli people.
À chaque sabbat, ils seront changés devant le Seigneur, après qu’ils auront été reçus des enfants d’Israël, par une alliance perpétuelle;
9 The bread [that is taken off the table] belongs to Aaron and his sons. They must eat it in a holy place, because it is a very holy part of the offerings that are given to me by being burned.”
Et ils appartiendront à Aaron et à ses fils, afin qu’ils les mangent dans un lieu saint, parce que c’est une chose très sainte des sacrifices du Seigneur en vertu d’un droit perpétuel.
10 There was a man whose mother’s name was Shelomith; she was an Israeli whose father was Dibri from the tribe of Dan. And that man’s father was from Egypt. One day that man and another Israeli man started to fight inside the camp. And while they were fighting, that man cursed Yahweh [MTY].
Or voilà que le fils d’une femme israélite qu’elle avait eu d’un Egyptien parmi les enfants d’Israël, étant sorti, eut une querelle dans le camp avec un Israélite.
Et comme il blasphéma le nom de Dieu et le maudit, il fut conduit à Moïse (or sa mère s’appelait Salumith, fille de Dabri, de la tribu de Dan);
12 So the Israeli people seized him and guarded him until they could find out what Yahweh would reveal to them [that they should do to that man].
Et on le mit en prison, jusqu’à ce qu’on sût ce que commanderait le Seigneur.
13 Then Yahweh said to Moses/me,
Le Seigneur parla à Moïse,
14 “[Tie up and] take outside the camp the man who has cursed me. There all those who heard what he said must put their hands on his head [to indicate that he is guilty], and then all the people must [kill him by] throwing stones at him.
Disant: Fais sortir hors du camp le blasphémateur; que tous ceux qui l’ont entendu mettent leurs mains sur sa tête, et que tout le peuple le lapide.
15 Tell the Israelis, ‘If anyone curses me, he must (endure the consequences/be punished).
Et aux enfants d’Israël tu diras: Un homme qui maudira son Dieu, portera son péché;
16 So anyone who curses me [MTY] must be executed. All the people must throw stones at him. It does not matter if he is a foreigner or an Israeli citizen; anyone who curses me must be executed.’
Et que celui qui blasphémera le nom du Seigneur, meure de mort; toute la multitude le lapidera, soit qu’il soit citoyen ou étranger. Que celui qui blasphème le nom du Seigneur meure de mort.
17 “Also, If anyone murders another person, he must be executed.
Que celui qui frappe et tue un homme, meure de mort.
18 And anyone who kills [another person’s] animal must give that person a live animal to replace the one that he killed.
Celui qui tuera un animal, en rendra un autre à sa place, c’est-à-dire, âme pour âme.
19 And if one person injures another person, the injured person is allowed to injure the person who injured him in the same way:
Celui qui fera un outrage à quelqu’un de ses concitoyens, comme il aura fait, ainsi il lui sera fait:
20 If someone breaks one of another person’s bones, that person is allowed to break one of the bones of the person who injured him. If someone gouges out an eye of another person, that person is allowed to gouge out the eye of the person who injured him. If someone knocks out the tooth of another person, that person is allowed to knock out one of his teeth. What is done to the offender must be the same as what he did to the other person.
Il rendra fracture pour fracture, œil pour œil, dent pour dent. Quelque outrage qu’il ait fait, il sera obligé de le souffrir.
21 Whoever kills [another person’s] animal must give that person a live animal to replace the one that he killed, but anyone who murders another person must be executed.
Celui qui frappera une bête, en rendra une autre. Celui qui frappera un homme, sera puni.
22 That law applies to you Israelis and and also to the foreigners who live among you; I, Yahweh your God [am the one who has commanded it].”
Qu’il y ait un jugement équitable parmi vous, que ce soit un étranger, ou un citoyen qui ait péché, parce que je suis le Seigneur votre Dieu.
23 Then Moses/I told the Israelis [what they must do to the man who cursed Yahweh], so they took the man outside the camp and [killed him by] throwing stones at him. They did what Yahweh commanded Moses/me [to tell them to do].
Moïse parla donc aux enfants d’Israël, et ils firent sortir celui qui avait blasphémé hors du camp, et ils le lapidèrent. Et les enfants d’Israël firent comme avait ordonné le Seigneur à Moïse.
