Levitik 17
1 Alò, SENYÈ a te pale avèk Moïse. Li te di:
And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
2 “Pale avèk Aaron, avèk fis li yo e ak tout fis Israël yo. Di yo: ‘Se sa ke SENYÈ a te kòmande e te di:
Speak to Aaron, and to his sons, and to all the sons of Israel, and say to them, This is the thing which Jehovah has commanded, saying,
3 “Nenpòt moun ki sòti lakay Israël ki touye yon bèf oswa yon jenn mouton, oswa yon kabrit nan kan an, oswa touye li deyò kan an,
Whatever man there is of the house of Israel, who kills an ox, or lamb, or goat, in the camp, or who kills it outside the camp,
4 epi ki pa t pote li nan pòtay tant asanble a pou prezante li kòm yon ofrann a SENYÈ a devan tabènak SENYÈ a, koupabilite vèse san an va kontwole sou moun sila a. Li te vèse san e moun sa a va koupe retire de pèp li a.
and has not brought it to the door of the tent of meeting, to offer it as an oblation to Jehovah before the tabernacle of Jehovah, blood shall be imputed to that man. He has shed blood, and that man shall be cut off from among his people,
5 Rezon pou sa a se pou pèmèt fis Israël yo pote sakrifis ke y ap fè nan gran chan yo, pou yo kapab pote yo antre vè SENYÈ a, nan pòtay tant asanble a vè prèt la, e pou fè sakrifis yo kòm sakrifis ofrann lapè bay SENYÈ a.
to the end that the sons of Israel may bring their sacrifices, which they sacrifice in the open field, even that they may bring them to Jehovah, to the door of the tent of meeting, to the priest, and sacrifice them for sacrifices of peace offerings to Jehovah.
6 Prèt la va flite san an sou lotèl SENYÈ a nan pòtay tant asanble a, e li va ofri grès la nan lafimen kòm yon bagay santi bon bay SENYÈ a.
And the priest shall sprinkle the blood upon the altar of Jehovah at the door of the tent of meeting, and burn the fat for a sweet savor to Jehovah.
7 Yo p ap fè sakrifis yo ankò bay kabrit a zidòl demon avèk sila yo fè jwèt pwostitisyon yo. Sa se yon règleman pou tout jenerasyon pa yo.”’”
And they shall no more sacrifice their sacrifices to the he-goats, after which they play the harlot. This shall be a statute forever to them throughout their generations.
8 “Epi ou va di yo: ‘Nenpòt moun lakay Israël la, oswa etranje ki rete pami nou yo, ki ofri yon ofrann brile oswa yon sakrifis,
And thou shall say to them, Whatever man there is of the house of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn among them, who offers a burnt offering or sacrifice,
9 epi ki pa mennen li nan pòtay tant asanble a pou ofri li bay SENYÈ a, moun sila a osi va koupe retire de pèp li a.
and does not bring it to the door of the tent of meeting, to sacrifice it to Jehovah, that man shall be cut off from his people.
10 “‘Epi nenpòt moun lakay Israël la, oswa etranje ki rete pami yo, ki bwè nenpòt san, Mwen va mete figi Mwen kont moun sa a ki bwè san an, e li va koupe retire de pèp li a.’
And whatever man there is of the house of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn among them, who eats any manner of blood, I will set my face against that soul who eats blood, and will cut him off from among his people.
11 Paske vi a chè a se nan san an, e Mwen te bannou li sou lotèl la pou fè ekspiyasyon pou nanm nou; paske se san li ye, akoz lavi ki fè ekspiyasyon an.
For the life of the flesh is in the blood, and I have given it to you upon the altar to make atonement for your souls, for it is the blood that makes atonement by reason of the life.
12 Pou sa, Mwen te di a fis Israël yo: ‘Pèsòn pami nou pa pou bwè san, ni okenn etranje ki rete pami nou p ap kab bwè san.’
Therefore I said to the sons of Israel, No soul of you shall eat blood, nor shall any stranger that sojourns among you eat blood.
13 “Pou sa, lè yon moun pami fis Israël yo oswa nan etranje ki rete pami yo, ki nan fè lachas kenbe yon bèt oswa yon zwazo ki kapab manje, li va vide san li e kouvri li avèk tè.
And whatever man there is of the sons of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn among them, who takes any beast or bird in hunting that may be eaten, he shall pour out the blood of it, and cover it with dust.
14 Paske lavi tout chè, se san li ki lavi li. Pou sa, Mwen te di a fis Israël yo: “Nou pa pou bwè san de okenn nan chè yo, paske lavi tout chè se san li. Nenpòt moun ki bwè li, va koupe retire.
For as to the life of all flesh, the blood of it is with the life of it. Therefore I said to the sons of Israel, Ye shall eat the blood of no manner of flesh, for the life of all flesh is the blood of it. Whoever eats it shall be cut off.
15 “Lè yon moun manje yon bèt ki mouri oswa ki chire pa lòt bèt kit li se yon moun peyi a, oswa yon etranje, li va lave rad li, li va benyen nan dlo, e li va rete pa pwòp jis rive nan aswè. Konsa, li va vin pwòp.
And every soul who eats that which dies of itself, or that which is torn of beasts, whether he be home-born or a sojourner, he shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the evening, then he shall be clean.
16 Men si li pa lave oswa benyen kò li, li va pote koupabilite li.”
But if he does not wash them, nor bathe his flesh, then he shall bear his iniquity.
