Levitik 1
1 Seyè a rete nan Tant Randevou a, li rele Moyiz, li di l' konsa:
And the Lord called Moses, and spoke to him from the tabernacle of the testimony, saying:
2 -W'a pale ak moun pèp Izrayèl yo, w'a di yo: Lè yon moun vle fè Seyè a yon ofrann, si se yon bèt li vle ofri, l'a ofri yon bèf osinon yon kabrit ou ankò yon mouton l'a pran nan bèt li yo.
Speak to the children of Israel, and thou shalt say to them: The man among you that shall offer to the Lord a sacrifice of the cattle, that is, offering victims of oxen and sheep,
3 Si se yon gwo bèt li vle ofri pou yo boule pou Seyè a, l'a mennen yon towo bèf ki pa gen ankenn enfimite. L'a vin avè l' jouk devan pòt Tant Randevou a pou Seyè a ka asepte l'.
If his offering be a holocaust, and of the herd, he shall offer a male without blemish, at the door of the testimony, to make the Lord favourable to him:
4 L'a mete men l' sou tèt bèt l'ap ofri a pou Bondye ka asepte l' tankou yon ofrann l'ap fè pou mande Bondye fè li gras.
And he shall put his hand upon the head of the victim, and it shall be acceptable, and help to its expiation.
5 L'a touye towo a la devan Seyè a. Apre sa, prèt yo, pitit Arawon yo, va pran san an pou yo ofri l' bay Seyè a. Lèfini, y'a voye san an sou kat bò lotèl ki toupre pòt Tant Randevou a.
And he shall immolate the calf before the Lord, and the priests the sons of Aaron shall offer the blood thereof, pouring it round about the altar, which is before the door of the tabernacle.
6 Apre sa, y'a kòche towo a, y'a koupe l' an moso.
And when they have flayed the victim, they shall cut the joints into pieces,
7 Prèt yo, pitit Arawon, prèt la, va limen dife sou lotèl la, y'a mete bwa nan dife a.
And shall put fire on the altar, having before laid in order a pile of wood:
8 Apre sa, prèt yo, pitit Arawon yo, va mete moso vyann yo ansanm ak tèt la ak moso grès yo sou dife ki sou lotèl la.
And they shall lay the parts that are cut out in order thereupon, to wit, the head, and all things that cleave to the liver,
9 Moun k'ap fè ofrann lan va lave tripay yo ak pye dèyè yo nan dlo. Lèfini, prèt yo va ofri yo bay Seyè a. Konsa y'a boule tout ofrann lan nèt sou lotèl la. Se sa yo rele yon ofrann bèt ou boule pou Seyè a, yon ofrann ou boule nèt nan dife epi k'ap fè Seyè a plezi ak bon sant li.
The entrails and feet being washed with water: and the priest shall burn them upon the altar for a holocaust, and a sweet savour to the Lord.
10 Si se yon ti bèt moun lan vle ofri pou boule nèt pou Seyè a, l'a ofri yon ti bouk kabrit osinon yon belye mouton ki pa gen ankenn enfimite.
And if the offering be of the hocks, a holocaust of sheep or of goats, he shall offer a male without blemish:
11 L'a touye l' sou bò nò lotèl la, devan Seyè a. Apre sa, prèt yo, pitit Arawon yo, va voye san an sou kat bò lotèl la.
And he shall immolate it at the side of the altar that looketh to the north, before the Lord: but the sons of Aaron shall pour the blood thereof upon the altar round about:
12 Lèfini, nonm lan va koupe l' an moso. Prèt yo va mete tout moso yo ansanm ak tèt la ak moso grès yo sou dife ki sou lotèl la.
And they shall divide the joints, the head, and all that cleave to the liver: and shall lay them upon the wood, under which the fire is to be put:
13 Moun k'ap fè ofrann lan va lave tripay yo ak pye dèyè yo nan dlo. Apre sa, prèt yo va ofri yo bay Seyè a. Konsa l'a boule tout ofrann lan nèt sou lotèl la. Se sa yo rele yon ofrann bèt ou boule pou Seyè a, yon ofrann ou boule nèt nan dife epi k'ap fè Seyè a plezi ak bon sant li.
But the entrails and the feet they shall wash with water. And the priest shall offer it all and burn it all upon the altar for a holocaust, and most sweet savour to the Lord.
14 Si se zwazo nonm lan ap ofri pou yo boule pou Seyè a, se va toutrèl osinon pijon.
But if the oblation of a holocaust to the Lord be of birds, of turtles, or of young pigeons,
15 Prèt la va pran zwazo a, l'a pote l' bò lotèl la, l'a peze bèk li, l'a tòde kou l' pou l' touye l'. Y'a boule tèt la sou lotèl la, y'a fè san li koule sou kat bò lotèl la.
The priest shall offer it at the altar: and twisting back the neck, and breaking the place of the wound, he shall make the blood run down upon the brim of the altar.
16 L'a rache fal zwazo a ak tout plim li sou li. L'a jete l' bò lotèl la, sou bò solèy leve, kote yo mete sann dife a.
But the crop of the throat, and the feathers he shall cast beside the altar at the east side, in the place where the ashes are wont to be poured out,
17 Apre sa, l'a bay yon kout kouto nan mitan de zèl yo, l'a kenbe zèl yo, l'a louvri kò zwazo a ande san li pa detache zèl yo. Lèfini, prèt la va boule l' nèt sou dife ki sou lotèl la. Se sa yo rele yon ofrann bèt yo boule pou Seyè a, yon ofrann ou boule nèt nan dife epi k'ap fè Seyè a plezi ak bon sant li.
And he shall break the pinions thereof, and shall not cut, nor divide it with a knife, and shall burn it upon the altar, putting fire under the wood. It is a holocaust and oblation of most sweet savour to the Lord.
