Levitik 20
1 Seyè a pale ak Moyiz, li di l' konsa:
The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
2 -Men sa pou ou di moun pèp Izrayèl yo: Depi yon moun bay yonn nan pitit li yo pou sèvi nan sèvis zidòl Molòk, li te mèt moun peyi a osinon moun lòt nasyon k'ap viv nan peyi a, se pou yo touye l'. Wi, tout moun nan peyi a va kalonnen l' wòch jouk li mouri.
"Moreover, you shall tell the children of Israel, 'Anyone of the children of Israel, or of the foreigners who sojourn in Israel, who gives any of his offspring to Molech; he shall surely be put to death. The people of the land shall stone him with stones.
3 Mwen menm bò pa m', mwen p'ap okipe l' ankò, m'ap wete l' nan mitan pèp mwen an. Paske li te bay yonn nan pitit li yo pou sèvi nan sèvis Molòk, li mete kay ki apa pou mwen an nan kondisyon yo pa ka fè sèvis ladan l' pou mwen, li derespekte non mwen.
I also will set my face against that person, and will cut him off from among his people because he has given of his offspring to Molech, to defile my sanctuary, and to profane my holy name.
4 Men, si moun ki nan peyi a fèmen je yo sou sa nonm lan fè a, lè li te bay pitit li pou fè sèvis pou Molòk la, si yo pa touye l',
If the people of the land all hide their eyes from that person, when he gives of his offspring to Molech, and do not put him to death;
5 se mwen menm ki p'ap okipe l' ankò, li menm ak tout fanmi l'. M'ap wete yo nan mitan pèp mwen an, ni li, ni nenpòt lòt moun k'ap vire do ban mwen tankou l' pou y al sèvi Molòk.
then I will set my face against that man, and against his family, and will cut him off, and all who play the prostitute after him, to play the prostitute with Molech, from among their people.
6 Si yon moun vire do ban mwen poul al konsilte moun k'ap rele mò nan tab tounant, osinon moun k'ap fè divinò, mwen p'ap okipe l' ankò, m'ap wete l' nan mitan pèp mwen an.
"'The person that turns to spirits of the dead, and to familiar spirits, to prostitute himself with them, I will even set my face against that person, and will cut him off from among his people.
7 Se pou nou viv apa pou mwen. Piga nou fè bagay mwen di nou pa fè, paske se mwen menm ki Seyè a, Bondye nou an.
"'Sanctify yourselves therefore, and be holy; for I am the LORD your God.
8 Se pou nou kenbe lòd mwen ban nou yo, se pou nou swiv yo. Se mwen menm Seyè a, se mwen menm k'ap fè nou sèvi m' nan tou sa n'ap fè!
You shall keep my statutes, and do them. I am the LORD who sanctifies you.
9 Depi yon moun bay manman l' osinon papa l' madichon, se pou yo touye l'. Paske li madichonnen manman l' ak papa l', se li menm sèl kab reskonsab lanmò li.
"'For everyone who curses his father or his mother shall surely be put to death: he has cursed his father or his mother; his blood shall be upon him.
10 Depi yon nonm fè adiltè ak madanm yon frè parèy li, se pou yo touye yo, ni li ni madanm lan.
"'The man who commits adultery with another man's wife shall surely be put to death, both the adulterer and the adulteress.
11 Depi yon nonm kouche madanm papa l', li jete dezonè sou papa l'. Se pou yo touye yo, ni li ni madanm lan. Lè konsa, se yo menm sèl k'ap reskonsab lanmò yo.
The man who lies with his father's wife has uncovered his father's nakedness: both of them shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.
12 Depi yon moun kouche bèlfi li, se pou yo touye tou de. Sa yo fè a se yon wont. Lè konsa, se yo menm sèl k'ap reskonsab lanmò yo.
"'If a man lies with his daughter-in-law, both of them shall surely be put to death: they have committed a perversion; their blood shall be upon them.
13 Depi yon nonm kouche yon nonm tankou li ta fè l' ak yon fanm, sa yo fè la a se bagay Bondye pi pa vle we. Se pou yo touye tou de. Lè konsa, se yo menm sèl k'ap reskonsab lanmò yo.
"'If a man has sexual relations with a male, as with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.
14 Si yon nonm marye ak yon fi ansanm ak manman fi a tou, se bagay ki sal nèt yo fè la a. Se pou yo boule tou twa nan dife. Bagay konsa pa fèt pou fèt nan mitan nou.
"'If a man takes a wife and her mother, it is wickedness: they shall be burned with fire, both he and they; that there may be no wickedness among you.
15 Si yon nonm kwaze ak yon zannimo, se pou yo touye l', li menm ansanm ak zannimo a. Wi, se pou yo touye yo.
"'If a man lies with an animal, he shall surely be put to death; and you shall kill the animal.
16 Si yon fanm chache yon jan pou li kwaze ak yon zannimo, se pou yo touye l', li menm ansanm ak zannimo a. Wi, se pou yo touye yo. Lè konsa, se yo menm sèl k'ap reskonsab lanmò yo.
"'If a woman approaches any animal, and lies down with it, you shall kill the woman, and the animal: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.
17 Si yon nonm marye ak sè li, li te mèt pitit fi manman l' osinon pitit fi papa l', si yo kouche yonn ak lòt, yo avili tèt yo devan tout pèp Izrayèl la. Sa yo fè a se yon gwo wont. Se pou yo chase yo nan mitan pèp la. Li te kouche sè li, se pou li peye pou sa l' fè a.
"'If a man takes his sister, his father's daughter, or his mother's daughter, and sees her nakedness, and she sees his nakedness; it is a shameful thing; and they shall be cut off in the sight of the children of their people: he has uncovered his sister's nakedness; he shall bear his iniquity.
18 Si yon nonm kouche yon fanm ki gen règ li, se pou yo wete yo nan mitan pèp la.
"'If a man lies with a woman having her monthly period, and uncovers her nakedness; he has made naked her fountain, and she has uncovered the fountain of her blood: and both of them shall be cut off from among their people.
19 Si yon nonm kouche matant li, matant bò papa l' osinon matant bò manman l', li kouche pwòp fanmi l'. Se pou yo fè tou de peye pou sa yo fè a.
"'You shall not uncover the nakedness of your mother's sister, nor of your father's sister; for he has made naked his close relative: they shall bear their iniquity.
20 Si yon nonm kouche madanm tonton li, li jete dezonè sou tonton li. Lè konsa, ni li, ni madanm lan, yo gen pou peye pou sa yo fè a. Y'a mouri san fè pitit.
If a man lies with his uncle's wife, he has uncovered his uncle's nakedness: they shall bear their sin; they shall die childless.
21 Si yon nonm marye ak madanm frè li, sa l' fè a se yon bagay k'ap mete l' nan kondisyon li pa ka sèvi Bondye, li jete dezonè sou frè li. Se poutèt sa, ni li ni madanm lan va rete san fè pitit.
"'If a man takes his brother's wife, it is an impurity: he has uncovered his brother's nakedness; they shall be childless.
22 Seyè a di ankò: -Se pou nou kenbe tout lòd mwen yo ak tout kòmandman mwen ban nou yo, se pou nou swiv yo. Konsa, peyi kote mwen pral mennen nou pou nou rete a p'ap voye nou jete deyò.
"'You shall therefore keep all my statutes, and all my ordinances, and do them; that the land, where I am bringing you to dwell, may not vomit you out.
23 Piga nou swiv move mès moun lòt nasyon mwen te mete deyò pou nou te ka antre nan peyi a. Yo te ban m' degoutans ak tout move bagay yo t'ap fè a.
You shall not walk in the customs of the nation, which I am casting out before you: for they did all these things, and therefore I abhorred them.
24 Men, mwen te pwomèt mwen t'ap ban nou peyi sa a pou peyi pa nou. Se yon peyi kote lèt ak siwo myèl koule tankou dlo. Wi, se mwen menm Seyè a, Bondye nou an, ki te chwazi nou nan mitan tout pèp yo pou mete nou apa.
But I have said to you, "You shall inherit their land, and I will give it to you to possess it, a land flowing with milk and honey." I am the LORD your God, who has separated you from the peoples.
25 Se konsa, koulye a, piga nou mele zannimo nou gen dwa manje ak zannimo nou pa gen dwa manje, zwazo nou gen dwa manje ak zwazo nou pa gen dwa manje. Pa kite ankenn zannimo ni ankenn zwazo nou pa gen dwa manje, ni bèt k'ap trennen sou vant mwen menm mwen di ki pa bon pou nou, mete nou nan kondisyon pou nou pa ka fè sèvis mwen.
"'You shall therefore make a distinction between the clean animal and the unclean, and between the unclean fowl and the clean: and you shall not make yourselves abominable by animal, or by bird, or by anything with which the ground teems, which I have separated from you as unclean for you.
26 Se pou nou viv apa pou mwen, paske mwen menm se yon Bondye apa mwen ye. Mwen menm Seyè a, mwen mete nou apa nan mitan tout lòt pèp yo pou nou ka pou mwen nèt.
You shall be holy to me: for I, the LORD, am holy, and have set you apart from the peoples, that you should be mine.
27 Depi yon nonm osinon yon fanm gen lespri yon mò sou li, osinon yon lòt lespri k'ap fè l' fè divinò, se pou yo touye yo. Y'a touye yo ak kout wòch. Lè konsa, se yo menm sèl k'ap reskonsab lanmò yo.
"'A man or a woman that is a medium, or is a wizard, shall surely be put to death: they shall stone them with stones; their blood shall be upon them.'"
