< Leviticus 5 >

1 [Yahweh also said to tell the people], “If [a judge] orders any of you to tell [in court] something that you have seen or something that you heard someone say, if you refuse to say what you know is true, you must (pay a penalty/be punished) [MTY] for refusing to tell what you know.
إِذَا أَخْطَأَ أَحَدٌ لأَنَّهُ صَمَتَ عِنْدَمَا اسْتُحْلِفَ، وَلَمْ يُدْلِ بِشَهَادَتِهِ حَوْلَ جَرِيمَةٍ رَآهَا أَوْ عَلِمَ بِها، فَإِنَّهُ يَكُونُ شَرِيكاً فِي الذَّنْبِ.١
2 If you accidentally touch something which God considers impure [DOU], such as the carcass of a wild animal or the carcass of a bull or cow, or of an animal that scurries across the ground, you must (pay a penalty/be punished).
كُلُّ مَنْ يَلْمِسُ شَيْئاً نَجِساً، سَوَاءٌ أَكَانَ جُثَّةَ حَيَوَانٍ مُحَرَّمٍ أَكْلُهُ، أَمْ جُثَّةَ وَحْشٍ أَوْ حَشَرَةٍ مُحَرَّمَةٍ، يَكُونُ مُذْنِباً وَنَجِساً، حَتَّى لَوْ لَمْ يَعْلَمْ أَنَّهُ لَمَسَهَا.٢
3 If you touch any human feces, even if you do not intend to do that, when you realize what you have done, you must (pay a penalty/be punished).
كُلُّ مَنْ يَمَسُّ إِحْدَى نَجَاسَاتِ الإِنْسَانِ الَّتِي يَتَنَجَّسُ بِها، عَنْ غَيْرِ عِلْمٍ مِنْهُ، ثُمَّ نُبِّهَ إِلَى الأَمْرِ، يُصْبِحُ مُذْنِباً.٣
4 If you carelessly make a solemn promise [to do something] that is good or that is bad, when you realize what you have done, you must (pay a penalty/be punished).
كُلُّ مَنْ يَحْلِفْ بِشَفَتَيْهِ دُونَ أَنْ يَتَفَكَّرَ، سَوَاءٌ لِلإِحْسَانِ أَوْ لِلإِسَاءَةِ مِنْ جَمِيعِ الأَحْلافِ الَّتِي يَفْرُطُ بِها اللِّسَانُ، مِنْ غَيْرِ عِلْمٍ مِنْهُ، ثُمَّ نُبِّهَ إِلَى الأَمْرِ، يُصْبِحْ مُذْنِباً فِي كِلا الْحَالَيْنِ.٤
5 If you are guilty of committing any of those sins, you must confess what you have done.
فَكُلُّ مَنْ يَكُونُ مُذْنِباً فِي أَحَدِ هَذِهِ الأُمُورِ، عَلَيْهِ الإِقْرَارُ بِمَا أَخْطَأَ بِهِ،٥
6 And for a penalty you must bring to Yahweh a female lamb or female goat, to be an offering for the sin that you have committed, and the priest will sacrifice it, and then you will no longer be guilty for your sin.
ثُمَّ يُحْضِرُ إِلَى الرَّبِّ ذَبِيحَةَ إِثْمٍ عَنْ خَطِيئَتِهِ الَّتِي اقْتَرَفَهَا: نَعْجَةً أَوْ عَنْزَةً، فَيُكَفِّرُ الْكَاهِنُ عَنْ خَطِيئَتِهِ.٦
7 If you [are poor and] cannot afford to bring a lamb, you must bring to Yahweh two doves or two young pigeons. One will be an offering for your sin and one will be an offering that will be completely burned [on the altar].
وَإِنْ كَانَ فَقِيراً، غَيْرَ قَادِرٍ عَلَى إِحْضَارِ شَاةٍ، فَلْيُقَدِّمْ إِلَى الرَّبِّ ذَبِيحَةً عَنْ إِثْمِهِ الَّذِي ارْتَكَبَهُ يَمَامَتَيْنِ أَوْ فَرْخَيْ حَمَامٍ، فَيَكُونُ أَحَدُهَا ذَبِيحَةَ خَطِيئَةٍ وَالآخَرُ مُحْرَقَةً،٧
8 You must bring them to the priest. First he will offer one of them to be an offering for your sin. He will wring/twist its neck [to kill it], but he must not pull off its head completely.
فَيَأْخُذُ الْكَاهِنُ ذَبِيحَةَ الْخَطِيئَةِ أَوَّلاً، وَيُقَرِّبُهَا بِأَنْ يَحُزَّ رَأْسَهَا مِنَ الْخَلْفِ وَلا يَفْصِلَهُ،٨
9 Then he must sprinkle some of the blood against the side of the altar. The remaining blood must be drained out at the base of the altar. That will be an offering for your sin.
وَيَرُشُّ بَعْضَ دَمِهَا عَلَى حَائِطِ الْمَذْبَحِ، وَيُصَفِّي بَقِيَّةَ الدَّمِ عِنْدَ قَاعِدَةِ الْمَذْبَحِ. إِنَّهَا ذَبِيحَةُ خَطِيئَةٍ.٩
10 The priest will then do what I have commanded and offer the other bird to be completely burned [on the altar]. Then you will no longer be guilty for the sin you have committed, and Yahweh will forgive you.
ثُمَّ يُقَدِّمُ الثَّانِي مُحْرَقَةً وَفْقاً لِلنِّظَامِ الْمُتَّبَعِ، وَهَكَذَا يُكَفِّرُ الْكَاهِنُ عَنْ خَطِيئَةِ الْمُذْنِبِ وَيَغْفِرُ الرَّبُّ لَهُ.١٠
11 However, if you [are very poor and] cannot afford two doves or two young pigeons, you must bring to be an offering for your sin (2 pounds/1 kg.) of fine flour. You must not put olive oil or incense on it, because it is an offering for sin.
وَإِنْ كَانَ الْمُذْنِبُ أَفْقَرَ مِنْ أَنْ يُقَدِّمَ يَمَامَتَيْنِ أَوْ فَرْخَيْ حَمَامٍ، فَلْيُحْضِرْ قُرْبَاناً عَنْ خَطِيئَتِهِ. عُشْرَ الإِيفَةِ (نَحْوَ لِتْرَيْنِ وَنِصْفِ اللِّتْرِ) مِنْ دَقِيقٍ نَاعِمٍ، لَا يَضَعُ عَلَيْهِ زَيْتاً أَوْ لُبَاناً، لأَنَّهُ قُرْبَانُ خَطِيئَةٍ،١١
12 You must take it to the priest. He will take a handful of it, to symbolize that the whole offering truly belongs to Yahweh, and burn it on the altar, on top of the other offerings.
وَيُقَدِّمْهُ إِلَى الْكَاهِنِ، فَيَمْلأُ مِنْهُ قَبْضَتَهُ لِلتَّذْكَارِ، وَيُحْرِقُهُ عَلَى الْمَذْبَحِ، عَلَى وَقَائِدِ الرَّبِّ. إِنَّهُ قُرْبَانُ خَطِيئَةٍ.١٢
13 And by doing that, the priest will enable you to no longer be guilty for any of the sins that you have committed, and you will be forgiven. The part of the offering that is not burned will belong to the priest, like was true for the offerings made from grain.”
فَيُكَفِّرُ الْكَاهِنُ بِذَلِكَ عَنْ أَيِّ خَطِيئَةٍ مِنَ الْخَطَايَا السَّالِفَةِ الَّتِي ارْتَكَبَهَا، فَيَغْفِرُ الرَّبُّ لَهُ. أَمَّا بَقِيَّةُ التَّقْدِمَةِ فَتَكُونُ مِنْ نَصِيبِ الْكَاهِنِ عَلَى غِرَارِ تَقْدِمَةِ الدَّقِيقِ».١٣
14 Yahweh also said to Moses/me,
قَالَ الرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى:١٤
15 “When you sin, without intending to, by not giving to Yahweh the things that you are required to give to him, you must pay a penalty by bringing to Yahweh a ram that has no defects. You must determine how much silver it is worth, by using the official standard in the temple. It will be an offering to cause you to no longer be guilty.
«إِنْ سَهَا أَحَدٌ وَتَعَدَّى عَلَى وَاحِدٍ مِنْ أَقْدَاسِ الرَّبِّ، يُحْضِرُ إِلَى الرَّبِّ ذَبِيحَةَ إِثْمٍ: كَبْشاً سَلِيماً، يُقَدِّرُ الْكَاهِنُ قِيمَتَهُ مِنَ الْفِضَّةِ وَفْقاً لِلْمَعَايِيرِ الْمُسْتَعْمَلَةِ فِي الْقُدْسِ،١٥
16 But you must also make restitution for what you failed to give to Yahweh, adding one-fifth of its value. You must give that to the priest. He will offer the ram as a sacrifice for the sin that you have committed, and cause you to no longer be guilty; and you will be forgiven.
فَيُعَوِّضُ عَمَّا أَخْطَأَ بِهِ مِنَ الْقُدْسِ، بَعْدَ أَنْ يُضِيفَ عَلَيْهِ مَا يُعَادِلُ خُمْسَهُ غَرَامَةً، وَيُؤَدِّيَهُ لِلْكَاهِنِ. فَيُكَفِّرُ الْكَاهِنُ عَنْهُ بِكَبْشِ الإِثْمِ، وَيَغْفِرُ الرَّبُّ لَهُ.١٦
17 If you sin by doing something that is forbidden by any of Yahweh’s commands, even if you do not know that you have disobeyed one of my commands, you are guilty and must pay a penalty [to me].
إِنْ أَخْطَأَ أَحَدٌ سَهْواً وَارْتَكَبَ إِحْدَى نَوَاهِي الرَّبِّ الَّتِي يَنْبَغِي أَلّا يَرْتَكِبَهَا، يَكُونُ مُذْنِباً وَمَسْؤولاً عَنْ إِثْمِهِ.١٧
18 [When you realize what you have done], you must bring a ram to the Supreme Priest to be an offering in order that you will no longer be guilty. You must bring one that has no defects. He will offer the ram to be a sacrifice to me, and as a result you will no longer be guilty for the sin that you have committed, and you will be forgiven.
وَعَلَيْهِ أَنْ يُحْضِرَ إِلَى الْكَاهِنِ ذَبِيحَةَ إِثْمٍ كَبْشاً سَلِيماً تُقَدِّرُ أَنْتَ ثَمَنَهُ، فَيُكَفِّرُ الْكَاهِنُ عَمَّا ارْتَكَبَهُ الْمُخْطِئُ مِنْ سَهْوٍ عَلَى غَيْرِ عِلْمٍ مِنْهُ، فَيَغْفِرُ الرَّبُّ لَهُ.١٨
19 It is an offering to cause you to no longer be guilty for sinning against me.”
إِنَّهُ ذَبِيحَةُ إِثْمٍ، إِذْ قَدِ ارْتَكَبَ ذَنْباً فِي حَقِّ الرَّبِّ».١٩
