Levitik 22
1 Seyè a pale ak Moyiz, li di li:
And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
2 -Men sa w'a di Arawon ak pitit gason l' yo. Se pou yo konnen ki jan pou yo sèvi ak sa moun pèp Izrayèl yo ofri m', ofrann yo mete apa pou mwen, pou yo pa derespekte non m'. Se mwen menm ki Seyè a.
“Speak to Aaron and to his sons, and they are separated from the holy things of the sons of Israel, and they do not defile My holy Name in what they are hallowing to Me; I [am] YHWH.
3 W'a di yo pou mwen: Lè yon gason nan fanmi nou pa nan kondisyon pou fè sèvis mwen, si li pwoche bò kote ofrann moun pèp Izrayèl yo mete apa pou mwen, piga yo janm kite l' parèt devan m' ankò! Se mwen menm ki Seyè a.
Say to them: Throughout your generations, any man who draws near, out of all your seed, to the holy things which the sons of Israel sanctify to YHWH, and his uncleanness [is] on him—indeed, that person has been cut off from before My face; I [am] YHWH.
4 Si yon gason nan branch fanmi Arawon an gen yon move maladi po osinon ekoulman, li p'ap ka manje nan ofrann yo mete apa pou Bondye toutotan li pa nan kondisyon pou fè sèvis Bondye ankò. Konsa tou, si yon prèt manyen yon kadav, osinon yon nonm ki gen ekoulman, li pa nan kondisyon pou l' fè sèvis Bondye a.
Any man of the seed of Aaron, and he is leprous or has discharging—he does not eat of the holy things until he is clean; and he who is coming against any uncleanness of a person, or a man whose seed [from] intercourse goes out from him,
5 Ou ankò si yon prèt manyen yonn nan bèt k'ap trennen sou vant yo, bèt ki ka mete l' nan kondisyon pou l' pa kapab fè sèvis Bondye, ou ankò si li manyen yon moun ki deja nan kondisyon sa a pou tèt pa l', prèt la tou pa ka fè sèvis Bondye.
or a man who comes against any teeming thing which is unclean to him, or against a man who is unclean to him, even any of his uncleanness—
6 L'a rete nan kondisyon sa a jouk aswè, lèfini tou li p'ap ka manje nan ofrann yo mete apa pou Bondye yo. Se pou li pran yon bon beny nan dlo anvan.
the person who comes against it has even been unclean until the evening, and does not eat of the holy things, but has bathed his flesh with water,
7 Apre solèy kouche, l'a nan kondisyon pou l' fè sèvis Bondye. Se lè sa a l'a ka manje nan ofrann yo mete apa pou Bondye a, paske se sa ki manje l'.
and the sun has gone in, and he has been clean, and afterward he eats of the holy things, for it [is] his food;
8 Li pa gen dwa manje ni vyann bèt ki mouri mò natirèl, ni vyann bèt bèt nan bwa touye. Bagay konsa ap mete l' nan kondisyon pou li pa kapab fè sèvis Bondye. Se mwen menm ki Seyè a!
he does not eat a carcass or torn thing, to become unclean with it; I [am] YHWH.
9 Se pou tout prèt yo swiv regleman mwen bay yo. Si yo pa swiv yo, y'a koupab, epi y'ap mouri paske yo pa respekte lòd Bondye menm te bay yo. Se mwen menm ki Seyè a, se mwen menm ki mete yo apa pou yo viv apa pou mwen.
And they have kept My charge, and bear no sin for it, that they have died for it when they defile it; I [am] YHWH sanctifying them.
10 Depi yon moun pa fè pati fanmi prèt yo, li te mèt yon moun ki rete lakay yon prèt osinon yon moun k'ap travay pou lajan l' lakay prèt la, li pa gen dwa manje nan ofrann yo mete apa pou Bondye yo.
And no stranger eats of the holy thing; a settler [with] a priest and a hired worker does not eat of the holy thing;
11 Men, esklav yon prèt, kit se achte li te achte l', kit li te fèt lakay li, gen dwa manje nan manje prèt la resevwa a.
but when a priest buys a person, the purchase of his money, he eats of it, also one born in his house; they eat of his bread.
12 Si pitit fi yon prèt marye ak yon nonm ki pa prèt, li p'ap ka manje anyen nan ofrann yo fè pou Bondye yo.
And a priest’s daughter, when she is a strange man’s, she does not eat of the raised-offering of the holy things;
13 Men, si pitit fi a vèv osinon si li divòse, si li pa gen pitit epi li tounen kay papa l' sou kont papa l', l'a ka manje nan manje papa l'. Men, moun ki pa fè pati fanmi prèt yo pa gen dwa manje anyen ladan l'.
but a priest’s daughter, when she is a widow, or cast out, and has no seed, and has turned back to the house of her father, as [in] her youth, she eats of her father’s bread; but no stranger eats of it.
14 Si yon moun ki pa fè pati fanmi prèt yo manje nan manje yo mete apa pou Bondye a san li pa konnen, li gen pou l' renmèt sa l' manje a plis ven pou san valè bagay la.
And when a man eats of a holy thing through ignorance, then he has added its fifth part to it, and has given [it] to the priest, with the holy thing;
15 Prèt yo pa gen dwa kite moun ki pa fè pati fanmi yo derespekte manje yo mete apa pou Bondye.
and they do not defile the holy things of the sons of Israel—that which they lift up to YHWH,
16 Si yo kite sa rive, moun lan va antò, l'ap peye pou sa. Se mwen menm ki Seyè a. Se mwen menm ki mete ofrann yo apa pou mwen.
or have caused them to bear the iniquity of the guilt-offering in their eating their holy things; for I [am] YHWH, sanctifying them.”
17 Seyè a pale ak Moyiz, li di l' konsa:
And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
18 -Pale ak Arawon ak pitit gason l' yo ak tout moun pèp Izrayèl la. Men sa w'a di yo: Lè yon moun nan pèp Izrayèl la, osinon yon moun lòt nasyon k'ap viv nan peyi a fè ofrann pou boule pou Seyè a, kit se paske li te fè yon ve, kit se paske li menm li fè lide fè ofrann lan,
“Speak to Aaron, and to his sons, and to all the sons of Israel, and you have said to them: Any man of the house of Israel, or of the sojourners in Israel, who brings his offering near, of all his vows, or of all his willing offerings which they bring near to YHWH for a burnt-offering—
19 se pou l' chwazi yon towo bèf, yon belye osinon yon bouk kabrit san ankenn enfimite si li vle pou m' asepte ofrann lan.
[you bring near] at your pleasure a perfect one, a male of the herd, of the sheep or of the goats;
20 Si nou ofri yon bèt ki gen nenpòt enfimite, Seyè a p'ap asepte l' nan men nou.
nothing in which [is] blemish do you bring near, for it is not for a pleasing thing for you.
21 Lè yon moun ap fè ofrann pou di Bondye mèsi, kit se paske li te fè yon ve, kit se paske li menm li vle fè ofrann lan, se pou bèt l'ap ofri a, li te mèt gwo bèt, li te mèt ti bèt, pa gen ankenn enfimite, si li vle pou m' asepte l'.
And when a man brings a sacrifice of peace-offerings near to YHWH, to complete a special vow, or for a willing-offering, of the herd or of the flock, it is perfect for a pleasing thing: no blemish is in it.
22 Piga nou janm ofri bay Seyè a bèt je pete, bèt k'ap bwete, bèt ki pèdi janm, bèt ki gen malenng, bèt ki gen maladi po. Piga nou janm pran yon bèt konsa pou nou mete sou lotèl la pou nou boule nan dife pou Seyè a.
Blind, or broken, or maimed, or [having] an oozing sore [[or a defect of the eye]], or itch, or scab—you do not bring these near to YHWH, and you do not make a fire-offering from them on the altar to YHWH.
23 Lè nou menm nou fè lide fè yon ofrann pou Seyè a, nou ka ofri yon towo bèf osinon yon belye ki difòm osinon ki kata. Men, nou pa ka sèvi ak yo pou yon ofrann n'ap fè paske nou te fè yon ve. Mwen p'ap asepte l'.
As for an ox or sheep [that] is deformed or stunted—you make it a willing-offering, but it is not pleasing for a vow.
24 Pa ofri bay Seyè a yon mal bèt ki gen grenn li yo foule, kraze, rache, osinon koupe. Nou pa gen dwa ofri bèt konsa nan peyi nou an.
As for bruised, or beaten, or torn, or cut—you do not bring [it] near to YHWH; and in your land you do not do it.
25 Piga nou pran bèt moun lòt nasyon fè nou kado pou n' ofri bay Seyè a. Paske bèt konsa pa antye, yo manke kichòy nan kò yo. Seyè a p'ap asepte yo nan men nou.
And you do not bring the bread of your God near from the hand of a son of a stranger, from any of these, for their corruption [is] in them; blemish [is] in them; they are not pleasing for you.”
26 Seyè a pale ak Moyiz, li di l' konsa:
And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
27 -Lè yon ti bèf, yon ti mouton osinon yon ti kabrit fenk fèt, se pou nou kite l' dèyè manman l' pandan sèt jou. Depi sou wityèm jou a, nou gen dwa ofri l' pou boule nan dife pou Seyè a.
“When ox, or lamb, or goat is born, and it has been under its mother [for] seven days, then from the eighth day and from now on, it is pleasing for an offering, a fire-offering to YHWH;
28 Kit se bèf, kit se mouton, pa janm ofri yon bèt ansanm ak pitit li menm jou a.
but an ox or sheep—you do not slaughter it and its young one in one day.
29 Lè n'ap fè ofrann pou di Bondye mèsi, se pou nou swiv tout regleman yo si nou vle Seyè a asepte ofrann lan nan men nou.
And when you sacrifice a sacrifice of thanksgiving to YHWH, you sacrifice at your pleasure;
30 Se pou nou manje l' menm jou a. Pa kite anyen pou denmen maten. Se mwen menm ki Seyè a!
it is eaten on that day—you do not leave of it until morning; I [am] YHWH.
31 Se pou nou fè tou sa mwen ban nou lòd fè. Wi, se pou nou swiv lòd mwen yo. Se mwen menm ki Seyè a!
And you have kept my commands and have done them; I [am] YHWH;
32 Piga nou derespekte non mwen. Se pou tout moun pèp Izrayèl la respekte m'. Se mwen menm ki Seyè a, se mwen menm ki mete nou apa pou nou viv apa pou mwen.
and you do not defile My holy Name, and I have been hallowed in the midst of the sons of Israel; I [am] YHWH, sanctifying you,
33 Se mwen menm ki te fè nou soti kite peyi Lejip pou m' te ka Bondye nou. Se mwen menm ki Seyè a!
who am bringing you up out of the land of Egypt, to become your God; I [am] YHWH.”
