Λευϊτικόν 6
1 καὶ ἐλάλησεν κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν λέγων
Yahweh also said to Moses/me,
2 ψυχὴ ἐὰν ἁμάρτῃ καὶ παριδὼν παρίδῃ τὰς ἐντολὰς κυρίου καὶ ψεύσηται τὰ πρὸς τὸν πλησίον ἐν παραθήκῃ ἢ περὶ κοινωνίας ἢ περὶ ἁρπαγῆς ἢ ἠδίκησέν τι τὸν πλησίον
“If any one of you you sins against me by deceiving someone—if you refuse to return what someone has lent you, or if you steal something of his, or if you find something and claim that you do not have it,
3 ἢ εὗρεν ἀπώλειαν καὶ ψεύσηται περὶ αὐτῆς καὶ ὀμόσῃ ἀδίκως περὶ ἑνὸς ἀπὸ πάντων ὧν ἐὰν ποιήσῃ ὁ ἄνθρωπος ὥστε ἁμαρτεῖν ἐν τούτοις
you are guilty. You must return to its owner what you have stolen or what someone has lent you and you have not returned, or what you found that someone else had lost,
4 καὶ ἔσται ἡνίκα ἐὰν ἁμάρτῃ καὶ πλημμελήσῃ καὶ ἀποδῷ τὸ ἅρπαγμα ὃ ἥρπασεν ἢ τὸ ἀδίκημα ὃ ἠδίκησεν ἢ τὴν παραθήκην ἥτις παρετέθη αὐτῷ ἢ τὴν ἀπώλειαν ἣν εὗρεν
or whatever you lied about.
5 ἀπὸ παντὸς πράγματος οὗ ὤμοσεν περὶ αὐτοῦ ἀδίκως καὶ ἀποτείσει αὐτὸ τὸ κεφάλαιον καὶ τὸ πέμπτον προσθήσει ἐπ’ αὐτό τίνος ἐστίν αὐτῷ ἀποδώσει ᾗ ἡμέρᾳ ἐλεγχθῇ
You must not only return anything like that to its owner, but you must also pay to the owner one-fifth of its value.
6 καὶ τῆς πλημμελείας αὐτοῦ οἴσει τῷ κυρίῳ κριὸν ἀπὸ τῶν προβάτων ἄμωμον τιμῆς εἰς ὃ ἐπλημμέλησεν αὐτῷ
You must also bring to the Supreme Priest a ram to be an offering to me in order that you will no longer be guilty. The ram that you bring must be one that has no defects, one that has the value that has been officially determined.
7 καὶ ἐξιλάσεται περὶ αὐτοῦ ὁ ἱερεὺς ἔναντι κυρίου καὶ ἀφεθήσεται αὐτῷ περὶ ἑνὸς ἀπὸ πάντων ὧν ἐποίησεν καὶ ἐπλημμέλησεν αὐτῷ
Then he will offer that ram to be a sacrifice that will cause you to no longer be guilty, and you will be forgiven for the wrong things that you did.”
8 καὶ ἐλάλησεν κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν λέγων
Yahweh also said to Moses/me,
9 ἔντειλαι Ααρων καὶ τοῖς υἱοῖς αὐτοῦ λέγων οὗτος ὁ νόμος τῆς ὁλοκαυτώσεως αὐτὴ ἡ ὁλοκαύτωσις ἐπὶ τῆς καύσεως αὐτῆς ἐπὶ τοῦ θυσιαστηρίου ὅλην τὴν νύκτα ἕως τὸ πρωί καὶ τὸ πῦρ τοῦ θυσιαστηρίου καυθήσεται ἐπ’ αὐτοῦ οὐ σβεσθήσεται
“Tell this to Aaron and his sons: These are the regulations concerning the offerings that will be completely burned [on the altar]: The offering must remain on the altar all during the night, and the fire on the altar must always be kept burning.
10 καὶ ἐνδύσεται ὁ ἱερεὺς χιτῶνα λινοῦν καὶ περισκελὲς λινοῦν ἐνδύσεται περὶ τὸ σῶμα αὐτοῦ καὶ ἀφελεῖ τὴν κατακάρπωσιν ἣν ἂν καταναλώσῃ τὸ πῦρ τὴν ὁλοκαύτωσιν ἀπὸ τοῦ θυσιαστηρίου καὶ παραθήσει αὐτὸ ἐχόμενον τοῦ θυσιαστηρίου
[The next morning] the priest must put on his linen under-clothes and linen outer clothes. Then he must remove the ashes of the offering from the fire and put them beside the altar.
11 καὶ ἐκδύσεται τὴν στολὴν αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐνδύσεται στολὴν ἄλλην καὶ ἐξοίσει τὴν κατακάρπωσιν ἔξω τῆς παρεμβολῆς εἰς τόπον καθαρόν
Then he must take off those clothes and put on other clothes, and take the ashes outside the camp, to a place that is acceptable to me.
12 καὶ πῦρ ἐπὶ τὸ θυσιαστήριον καυθήσεται ἀπ’ αὐτοῦ καὶ οὐ σβεσθήσεται καὶ καύσει ὁ ἱερεὺς ἐπ’ αὐτὸ ξύλα τὸ πρωὶ καὶ στοιβάσει ἐπ’ αὐτοῦ τὴν ὁλοκαύτωσιν καὶ ἐπιθήσει ἐπ’ αὐτὸ τὸ στέαρ τοῦ σωτηρίου
The fire on the altar must always be kept burning; the priest must not allow it to (go out/quit burning). Each morning the priest must put more firewood on the fire. Then he must arrange more offerings on the fire, and burn on the altar the fat of the offerings to be burned to maintain fellowship [with me].
13 καὶ πῦρ διὰ παντὸς καυθήσεται ἐπὶ τὸ θυσιαστήριον οὐ σβεσθήσεται
The fire on the altar must be kept burning continually; the priest must not allow it to go out.”
14 οὗτος ὁ νόμος τῆς θυσίας ἣν προσάξουσιν αὐτὴν οἱ υἱοὶ Ααρων ἔναντι κυρίου ἀπέναντι τοῦ θυσιαστηρίου
“These are the regulations concerning the offerings made from grain: Aaron’s sons must bring them to me in front of the altar.
15 καὶ ἀφελεῖ ἀπ’ αὐτοῦ τῇ δρακὶ ἀπὸ τῆς σεμιδάλεως τῆς θυσίας σὺν τῷ ἐλαίῳ αὐτῆς καὶ σὺν τῷ λιβάνῳ αὐτῆς τὰ ὄντα ἐπὶ τῆς θυσίας καὶ ἀνοίσει ἐπὶ τὸ θυσιαστήριον κάρπωμα ὀσμὴ εὐωδίας τὸ μνημόσυνον αὐτῆς τῷ κυρίῳ
The priest must take a handful of fine flour mixed with olive oil and incense and burn that on the altar. That handful will signify that the whole offering truly belongs to me. And the aroma while it burns will be pleasing to me.
16 τὸ δὲ καταλειφθὲν ἀπ’ αὐτῆς ἔδεται Ααρων καὶ οἱ υἱοὶ αὐτοῦ ἄζυμα βρωθήσεται ἐν τόπῳ ἁγίῳ ἐν αὐλῇ τῆς σκηνῆς τοῦ μαρτυρίου ἔδονται αὐτήν
Aaron and his sons may eat the remaining part of the grain offering. But they must eat it in a holy place, in the courtyard of the Sacred Tent.
17 οὐ πεφθήσεται ἐζυμωμένη μερίδα αὐτὴν ἔδωκα αὐτοῖς ἀπὸ τῶν καρπωμάτων κυρίου ἅγια ἁγίων ὥσπερ τὸ τῆς ἁμαρτίας καὶ ὥσπερ τὸ τῆς πλημμελείας
It must not have yeast mixed with it. Like the offerings for sin and the offerings to cause people to no longer be guilty of sin, that offering is very holy.
18 πᾶν ἀρσενικὸν τῶν ἱερέων ἔδονται αὐτήν νόμιμον αἰώνιον εἰς τὰς γενεὰς ὑμῶν ἀπὸ τῶν καρπωμάτων κυρίου πᾶς ὃς ἐὰν ἅψηται αὐτῶν ἁγιασθήσεται
Any male descendants of Aaron are permitted to eat it, because it is forever their regular share of the offerings given to me and burned in the fire [on the altar]. Anyone else who touches those offerings made from grain will be punished by God.”
19 καὶ ἐλάλησεν κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν λέγων
Yahweh also said to Moses/me,
20 τοῦτο τὸ δῶρον Ααρων καὶ τῶν υἱῶν αὐτοῦ ὃ προσοίσουσιν κυρίῳ ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ᾗ ἂν χρίσῃς αὐτόν τὸ δέκατον τοῦ οιφι σεμιδάλεως εἰς θυσίαν διὰ παντός τὸ ἥμισυ αὐτῆς τὸ πρωὶ καὶ τὸ ἥμισυ αὐτῆς τὸ δειλινόν
“Tell Aaron and his sons that this is the offering that they must bring to Yahweh on the day that any of them (is ordained/becomes a priest): That person must bring two quarts/liters of fine flour as an offering made from grain. He must bring half of it in the morning and half of it in the evening.
21 ἐπὶ τηγάνου ἐν ἐλαίῳ ποιηθήσεται πεφυραμένην οἴσει αὐτήν ἑλικτά θυσίαν ἐκ κλασμάτων θυσίαν ὀσμὴν εὐωδίας κυρίῳ
He must mix it well with olive oil and bake it in a shallow pan. He must then break it into small pieces to be burned [on the altar]. And the aroma while it burns will be pleasing to Yahweh.
22 ὁ ἱερεὺς ὁ χριστὸς ἀντ’ αὐτοῦ ἐκ τῶν υἱῶν αὐτοῦ ποιήσει αὐτήν νόμος αἰώνιος ἅπαν ἐπιτελεσθήσεται
I have commanded that the descendants of Aaron who are appointed in turn to become the Supreme Priests after Aaron dies are the ones who must prepare those things. These offerings must be completely burned [on the altar] to be sacrifices to me, Yahweh.
23 καὶ πᾶσα θυσία ἱερέως ὁλόκαυτος ἔσται καὶ οὐ βρωθήσεται
Every offering that a priest gives that is made from grain must be completely burned; none of it is to be eaten.”
24 καὶ ἐλάλησεν κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν λέγων
Yahweh also said to Moses/me,
25 λάλησον Ααρων καὶ τοῖς υἱοῖς αὐτοῦ λέγων οὗτος ὁ νόμος τῆς ἁμαρτίας ἐν τόπῳ οὗ σφάζουσιν τὸ ὁλοκαύτωμα σφάξουσιν τὰ περὶ τῆς ἁμαρτίας ἔναντι κυρίου ἅγια ἁγίων ἐστίν
“Tell Aaron and his sons: These are the regulations concerning the offerings that people must bring to me so that I will forgive the people for the sins they have committed:
26 ὁ ἱερεὺς ὁ ἀναφέρων αὐτὴν ἔδεται αὐτήν ἐν τόπῳ ἁγίῳ βρωθήσεται ἐν αὐλῇ τῆς σκηνῆς τοῦ μαρτυρίου
The animals must be slaughtered in my presence in the same place that the animals that are to be completely burned [on the altar] are slaughtered, in the courtyard in front of the Sacred Tent.
27 πᾶς ὁ ἁπτόμενος τῶν κρεῶν αὐτῆς ἁγιασθήσεται καὶ ᾧ ἐὰν ἐπιρραντισθῇ ἀπὸ τοῦ αἵματος αὐτῆς ἐπὶ τὸ ἱμάτιον ὃ ἐὰν ῥαντισθῇ ἐπ’ αὐτὸ πλυθήσεται ἐν τόπῳ ἁγίῳ
Any other person who touches any of its meat will be punished by God. And if its blood is splattered on your clothes, you must wash the clothes in a holy place.
28 καὶ σκεῦος ὀστράκινον οὗ ἐὰν ἑψηθῇ ἐν αὐτῷ συντριβήσεται ἐὰν δὲ ἐν σκεύει χαλκῷ ἑψηθῇ ἐκτρίψει αὐτὸ καὶ ἐκκλύσει ὕδατι
If the meat is cooked in a clay pot, the pot must be broken [afterwards]. But if it is cooked in a bronze pot, the pot must be scoured [afterwards] and rinsed with water.
29 πᾶς ἄρσην ἐν τοῖς ἱερεῦσιν φάγεται αὐτά ἅγια ἁγίων ἐστὶν κυρίου
Any male in a priest’s family may eat some of the cooked meat; that meat is very holy.
30 καὶ πάντα τὰ περὶ τῆς ἁμαρτίας ὧν ἐὰν εἰσενεχθῇ ἀπὸ τοῦ αἵματος αὐτῶν εἰς τὴν σκηνὴν τοῦ μαρτυρίου ἐξιλάσασθαι ἐν τῷ ἁγίῳ οὐ βρωθήσεται ἐν πυρὶ κατακαυθήσεται
But if the blood of those sin offerings is brought into the Sacred Tent to enable the people to be forgiven for having sinned, the meat of those animals must not be eaten. The meat must be completely burned.”
