Lévitique 4

1 L’Éternel parla à Moïse, et dit:

And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,

2 Parle aux enfants d’Israël, et dis: Lorsque quelqu’un péchera involontairement contre l’un des commandements de l’Éternel, en faisant des choses qui ne doivent point se faire;

“Speak to the sons of Israel, saying, When a person sins through ignorance against any of the commands of YHWH [regarding things] which are not to be done, and has done [something] against one of these—

3 Si c’est le sacrificateur ayant reçu l’onction qui a péché et a rendu par là le peuple coupable, il offrira à l’Éternel, pour le péché qu’il a commis, un jeune taureau sans défaut, en sacrifice d’expiation.

if the priest who is anointed sins according to the guilt of the people, then he has brought near for his sin which he has sinned a bullock, a son of the herd, a perfect one, to YHWH, for a sin-offering,

4 Il amènera le taureau à l’entrée de la tente d’assignation, devant l’Éternel; et il posera sa main sur la tête du taureau, qu’il égorgera devant l’Éternel.

and he has brought in the bullock to the opening of the Tent of Meeting before YHWH, and has laid his hand on the head of the bullock, and has slaughtered the bullock before YHWH.

5 Le sacrificateur ayant reçu l’onction prendra du sang du taureau, et l’apportera dans la tente d’assignation;

And the priest who is anointed has taken of the blood of the bullock, and has brought it into the Tent of Meeting,

6 il trempera son doigt dans le sang, et il en fera sept fois l’aspersion devant l’Éternel, en face du voile du sanctuaire.

and the priest has dipped his finger in the blood, and sprinkled of the blood seven times before YHWH, at the front of the veil of the holy place;

7 Le sacrificateur mettra du sang sur les cornes de l’autel des parfums odoriférants, qui est devant l’Éternel dans la tente d’assignation; et il répandra tout le sang du taureau au pied de l’autel des holocaustes, qui est à l’entrée de la tente d’assignation.

and the priest has put of the blood on the horns of the altar of spice-incense before YHWH, which [is] in the Tent of Meeting, and he pours out all the blood of the bullock at the foundation of the altar of the burnt-offering, which [is] at the opening of the Tent of Meeting.

8 Il enlèvera toute la graisse du taureau expiatoire, la graisse qui couvre les entrailles et toute celle qui y est attachée,

And he lifts up from it all the fat of the bullock of the sin-offering, the fat which is covering over the innards, and all the fat which [is] on the innards,

9 les deux rognons, et la graisse qui les entoure, qui couvre les flancs, et le grand lobe du foie, qu’il détachera près des rognons.

and the two kidneys, and the fat which [is] on them, which [is] on the flanks, and the redundance on the liver above the kidneys—he turns it aside,

10 Le sacrificateur enlèvera ces parties comme on les enlève du taureau dans le sacrifice d’actions de grâces, et il les brûlera sur l’autel des holocaustes.

as it is lifted up from the ox of the sacrifice of the peace-offerings; and the priest has made them an incense on the altar of the burnt-offering.

11 Mais la peau du taureau, toute sa chair, avec sa tête, ses jambes, ses entrailles et ses excréments,

And the skin of the bullock, and all its flesh, with its head, and with its legs, and its innards, and its dung—

12 le taureau entier, il l’emportera hors du camp, dans un lieu pur, où l’on jette les cendres, et il le brûlera au feu sur du bois: c’est sur le tas de cendres qu’il sera brûlé.

he has even brought out the whole bullock to the outside of the camp, to a clean place, to the place of the pouring out of the ashes, and he has burned it on the wood with fire; it is burned beside the place of the pouring out of the ashes.

13 Si c’est toute l’assemblée d’Israël qui a péché involontairement et sans s’en apercevoir, en faisant contre l’un des commandements de l’Éternel des choses qui ne doivent point se faire et en se rendant ainsi coupable,

And if all the congregation of Israel errs ignorantly, and the thing has been hidden from the eyes of the assembly, and they have done [something against] one of all the commands of YHWH [regarding things] which are not to be done, and have been guilty;

14 et que le péché qu’on a commis vienne à être découvert, l’assemblée offrira un jeune taureau en sacrifice d’expiation, et on l’amènera devant la tente d’assignation.

when the sin which they have sinned concerning it has been known, then the assembly has brought a bullock near, a son of the herd, for a sin-offering, and they have brought it in before the Tent of Meeting;

15 Les anciens d’Israël poseront leurs mains sur la tête du taureau devant l’Éternel, et on égorgera le taureau devant l’Éternel.

and the elderly of the congregation have laid their hands on the head of the bullock, before YHWH, and [one] has slaughtered the bullock before YHWH.

16 Le sacrificateur ayant reçu l’onction apportera du sang du taureau dans la tente d’assignation;

And the priest who is anointed has brought in of the blood of the bullock to the Tent of Meeting,

17 il trempera son doigt dans le sang, et il en fera sept fois l’aspersion devant l’Éternel, en face du voile.

and the priest has dipped his finger in the blood, and has sprinkled seven times before YHWH at the front of the veil,

18 Il mettra du sang sur les cornes de l’autel qui est devant l’Éternel dans la tente d’assignation; et il répandra tout le sang au pied de l’autel des holocaustes, qui est à l’entrée de la tente d’assignation.

and he puts [some] of the blood on the horns of the altar which [is] before YHWH, which [is] in the Tent of Meeting; and he pours out all the blood at the foundation of the altar of the burnt-offering, which [is] at the opening of the Tent of Meeting;

19 Il enlèvera toute la graisse du taureau, et il la brûlera sur l’autel.

and he lifts up all its fat from it, and has made incense on the altar.

20 Il fera de ce taureau comme du taureau expiatoire; il fera de même. C’est ainsi que le sacrificateur fera pour eux l’expiation, et il leur sera pardonné.

And he has done to the bullock as he has done to the bullock of the sin-offering, so he does to it; and the priest has made atonement for them, and it has been forgiven them;

21 Il emportera le taureau hors du camp, et il le brûlera comme le premier taureau. C’est un sacrifice d’expiation pour l’assemblée.

and he has brought out the bullock to the outside of the camp, and has burned it as he has burned the first bullock; it [is] a sin-offering of the assembly.

22 Si c’est un chef qui a péché, en faisant involontairement contre l’un des commandements de l’Éternel, son Dieu, des choses qui ne doivent point se faire et en se rendant ainsi coupable,

When a prince sins, and has done [something against] one of all the commands of his God YHWH [regarding things] which are not to be done, through ignorance, and has been guilty,

23 et qu’il vienne à découvrir le péché qu’il a commis, il offrira en sacrifice un bouc mâle sans défaut.

or his sin wherein he has sinned has been made known to him, then he has brought in his offering, a kid of the goats, a male, a perfect one,

24 Il posera sa main sur la tête du bouc, qu’il égorgera dans le lieu où l’on égorge les holocaustes devant l’Éternel. C’est un sacrifice d’expiation.

and he has laid his hand on the head of the goat, and has slaughtered it in the place where he slaughters the burnt-offering before YHWH; it [is] a sin-offering.

25 Le sacrificateur prendra avec son doigt du sang de la victime expiatoire, il en mettra sur les cornes de l’autel des holocaustes, et il répandra le sang au pied de l’autel des holocaustes.

And the priest has taken of the blood of the sin-offering with his finger, and has put [it] on the horns of the altar of the burnt-offering, and he pours out its blood at the foundation of the altar of the burnt-offering,

26 Il brûlera toute la graisse sur l’autel, comme la graisse du sacrifice d’actions de grâces. C’est ainsi que le sacrificateur fera pour ce chef l’expiation de son péché, et il lui sera pardonné.

and he makes incense on the altar with all its fat, as the fat of the sacrifice of the peace-offerings; and the priest has made atonement for him because of his sin, and it has been forgiven him.

27 Si c’est quelqu’un du peuple qui a péché involontairement, en faisant contre l’un des commandements de l’Éternel des choses qui ne doivent point se faire et en se rendant ainsi coupable,

And if any person of the people of the land sins through ignorance, by his doing [something against] one of the commands of YHWH [regarding things] which are not to be done, and has been guilty,

28 et qu’il vienne à découvrir le péché qu’il a commis, il offrira en sacrifice une chèvre, une femelle sans défaut, pour le péché qu’il a commis.

or his sin which he has sinned has been made known to him, then he has brought in his offering, a kid of the goats, a perfect one, a female, for his sin which he has sinned,

29 Il posera sa main sur la tête de la victime expiatoire, qu’il égorgera dans le lieu où l’on égorge les holocaustes.

and he has laid his hand on the head of the sin-offering, and has slaughtered the sin-offering in the place of the burnt-offering.

30 Le sacrificateur prendra avec son doigt du sang de la victime, il en mettra sur les cornes de l’autel des holocaustes, et il répandra tout le sang au pied de l’autel.

And the priest has taken of its blood with his finger, and has put [it] on the horns of the altar of the burnt-offering, and he pours out all its blood at the foundation of the altar,

31 Le sacrificateur ôtera toute la graisse, comme on ôte la graisse du sacrifice d’actions de grâces, et il la brûlera sur l’autel, et elle sera d’une agréable odeur à l’Éternel. C’est ainsi que le sacrificateur fera pour cet homme l’expiation, et il lui sera pardonné.

and he turns aside all its fat, as the fat has been turned aside from off the sacrifice of the peace-offerings, and the priest has made incense on the altar for refreshing fragrance to YHWH; and the priest has made atonement for him, and it has been forgiven him.

32 S’il offre un agneau en sacrifice d’expiation, il offrira une femelle sans défaut.

And if he brings in a sheep [for] his offering, a female for a sin-offering, he brings in a perfect one,

33 Il posera sa main sur la tête de la victime, qu’il égorgera en sacrifice d’expiation dans le lieu où l’on égorge les holocaustes.

and he has laid his hand on the head of the sin-offering, and has slaughtered it for a sin-offering in the place where he slaughters the burnt-offering.

34 Le sacrificateur prendra avec son doigt du sang de la victime, il en mettra sur les cornes de l’autel des holocaustes, et il répandra tout le sang au pied de l’autel.

And the priest has taken of the blood of the sin-offering with his finger, and has put [it] on the horns of the altar of the burnt-offering, and he pours out all its blood at the foundation of the altar,

35 Le sacrificateur ôtera toute la graisse, comme on ôte la graisse de l’agneau dans le sacrifice d’actions de grâces, et il la brûlera sur l’autel, comme un sacrifice consumé par le feu devant l’Éternel. C’est ainsi que le sacrificateur fera pour cet homme l’expiation du péché qu’il a commis, et il lui sera pardonné.

and he turns aside all its fat, as the fat of the sheep is turned aside from the sacrifice of the peace-offerings, and the priest has made them an incense on the altar, according to the fire-offerings of YHWH, and the priest has made atonement for him, for his sin which he has sinned, and it has been forgiven him.”
