Levitik 17
1 Seyè a pale ak Moyiz, li di l' konsa:
And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,
2 -Pale ak Arawon ak pitit gason l' yo epi ak tout moun pèp Izrayèl yo. W'a di yo: Men bagay Seyè a bay lòd pou nou fè:
'Speak unto Aaron, and unto his sons, and unto all the sons of Israel; and thou hast said unto them, This [is] the thing which Jehovah hath commanded, saying,
3 Si yonn nan moun Izrayèl yo touye yon towo bèf, yon mouton osinon yon kabrit nan kan kote yo rete a, ou ankò lòt bò limit kan an,
Any man of the house of Israel who slaughtereth ox, or lamb, or goat, in the camp, or who slaughtereth at the outside of the camp,
4 depi se pa devan pòt Tant Randevou a li touye l' pou l' ofri l' bay Seyè a la devan kay Seyè a, moun sa a koupab, li fè yon krim, li fè san koule. Se pou yo wete l' nèt nan mitan moun pèp Bondye a.
and unto the opening of the tent of meeting hath not brought it in to bring near an offering to Jehovah before the tabernacle of Jehovah, blood is reckoned to that man — blood he hath shed — and that man hath been cut off from the midst of his people;
5 Sa vle di: Depi koulye a moun pèp Izrayèl yo gen pou mennen devan Seyè a tout bèt yo te konn touye nan jaden. Se pou yo mennen yo bay prèt la devan pòt Tant Randevou a. Se la y'a touye yo, menm jan yo touye bèt y'ap ofri pou di Bondye mèsi.
so that the sons of Israel do bring in their sacrifices which they are sacrificing on the face of the field, yea, they have brought them in to Jehovah, unto the opening of the tent of meeting, unto the priest, and they have sacrificed sacrifices of peace-offerings to Jehovah with them.
6 Prèt la va pran san an, l'a vide l' sou lotèl la, devan pòt Tant Randevou a. L'a boule grès la pou l' fè yon bon sant ki va fè Seyè a plezi.
'And the priest hath sprinkled the blood upon the altar of Jehovah, at the opening of the tent of meeting, and hath made perfume with the fat for sweet fragrance to Jehovah;
7 Se pou moun pèp Izrayèl yo sispann ofri bèt pou yo touye bay zidòl nan jaden tankou yo te konn fè lè yo te vire do bay Bondye a. Se pou pèp la toujou kenbe lòd sa a de pitit an pitit.
and they sacrifice not any more their sacrifices to goats after which they are going a-whoring; a statute age-during is this to them, to their generations.
8 Epi w'a di yo ankò: Ankenn moun nan pèp Izrayèl la, ni moun lòt nasyon k'ap viv nan mitan yo pa gen dwa touye bèt yo ofri ni pou yo boule nèt ni pou lòt kalite sèvis
'And unto them thou sayest: Any man of the house of Israel, or of the sojourners, who sojourneth in your midst, who causeth burnt-offering or sacrifice to ascend,
9 ankenn lòt kote, si se pa devan pòt Tant Randevou a pou li ofri l' bay Seyè a. Si se pa sa, y'a wete l' nèt nan mitan moun pèp Bondye a.
and unto the opening of the tent of meeting doth not bring it in to make it to Jehovah — that man hath been cut off from his people.
10 Pesonn ni nan pèp Izrayèl la, ni pami moun lòt nasyon k'ap viv nan mitan yo pa gen dwa manje vyann ak tout san li ladan l'. Si li fè l', mwen menm Seyè a, mwen p'ap okipe l' ankò, m'ap wete l' nan mitan pèp mwen an.
'And any man of the house of Israel, or of the sojourners, who is sojourning in your midst, who eateth any blood, I have even set My face against the person who is eating the blood, and have cut him off from the midst of his people;
11 Nanm tout bèt vivan se nan san an li ye. Se poutèt sa, mwen menm Seyè a, mwen mande pou yo vide tout san an sou lotèl la pou li ka wete peche pèp la. Nou bay san an pou nanm nou.
for the life of the flesh is in the blood, and I have given it to you on the altar, to make atonement for your souls; for it [is] the blood which maketh atonement for the soul.
12 Se poutèt sa Seyè a te di moun pèp Izrayèl yo: Pesonn nan pèp Izrayèl la, ni ankenn moun lòt nasyon k'ap viv nan mitan nou pa gen dwa manje vyann ki gen san ladan l'.
'Therefore I have said to the sons of Israel, No person among you doth eat blood, and the sojourner who is sojourning in your midst doth not eat blood;
13 Lè yon moun nan pèp Izrayèl la osinon yon moun lòt nasyon k'ap viv nan mitan yo al lachas, si li pran yon bèt osinon yon zwazo yo gen dwa manje, l'a vide tout san bèt la atè epi la kouvri l' ak tè.
and any man of the sons of Israel, or of the sojourners, who is sojourning in your midst, who hunteth venison, beast or fowl, which is eaten — hath even poured out its blood, and hath covered it with dust;
14 Paske nanm tout bèt vivan se nan san an li ye. Se poutèt sa mwen menm, Seyè a, mwen di moun pèp Izrayèl yo: Yo pa gen dwa manje vyann ankenn bèt ak tout san an ladan l'. Paske se nan san an nanm lan ye. Tout moun ki manje vyann ak san li ladan l', m'ap wete yo nan mitan pèp mwen an.
for [it is] the life of all flesh, its blood is for its life; and I say to the sons of Israel, Blood of any flesh ye do not eat, for the life of all flesh is its blood; any one eating it is cut off.
15 Mwen pa bezwen konnen si se moun pèp Izrayèl la osinon moun lòt nasyon k'ap viv nan mitan nou, depi yon moun manje vyann yon bèt mouri osinon vyann bèt yon lòt bèt nan bwa ta touye, l'a gen pou l' lave rad ki sou li, l'a benyen nan gwo dlo, epi li p'ap nan kondisyon pou fè sèvis Bondye jouk aswè. Se aprè sa l'a nan kondisyon pou fè sèvis Bondye ankò.
'And any person who eateth a carcase or torn thing, among natives or among sojourners — hath both washed his garments, and hath bathed with water, and hath been unclean until the evening — then he hath been clean;
16 Men, si li pa lave rad ki sou li yo, si li pa benyen nèt, l'a peye sa l' fè a.
and if he wash not, and his flesh bathe not — then he hath borne his iniquity.'
