Levitik 19
1 Alò, SENYÈ a te pale ak Moïse. Li te di:
The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
2 “Pale avèk tout asanble a fis Israël yo. Di yo: ‘Nou va sen, paske Mwen menm, SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, Mwen sen.
"Speak to all the congregation of the children of Israel, and tell them, 'You shall be holy; for I the LORD your God am holy.
3 “‘Nou chak va onore manman nou ak papa nou, e nou va kenbe Saba Mwen yo. Mwen se SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an.
"'Each one of you shall respect his mother and his father. You shall keep my Sabbaths. I am the LORD your God.
4 “‘Pa vire vè zidòl yo, ni fè pou nou menm dye metal fonn yo. Mwen se SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an.
"'Do not turn to idols, nor make molten gods for yourselves. I am the LORD your God.
5 “‘Alò, lè nou ofri yon sakrifis lapè bay SENYÈ a, nou va ofri li pou nou kapab vin aksepte.
"'When you offer a sacrifice of peace offerings to the LORD, you shall offer it so that you may be accepted.
6 Li va manje nan menm jou ke nou ofri li a, ak jou apre a. Si gen ki rete jis nan twazyèm jou a, li va vin brile avèk dife.
It shall be eaten the same day you offer it, and on the next day: and if anything remains until the third day, it shall be burned with fire.
7 Konsa, si li ta manje menm nan twazyèm jou a, sa se yon ofans. Li p ap aksepte.
If it is eaten at all on the third day, it is an abomination. It will not be accepted;
8 Tout sila ki manje li yo, va pote inikite li, paske li te degrade bagay sen SENYÈ a. Konsa, moun sa a va koupe retire de pèp li a.
but everyone who eats it shall bear his iniquity, because he has profaned the holy thing of the LORD, and that soul shall be cut off from his people.
9 “‘Alò, lè nou fè rekòlt nan tè nou, nou p ap rekòlte rive jis nan kwen chan an, ni nou p ap ranmase ti rès ki tonbe a.
"'When you reap the harvest of your land, you shall not wholly reap the corners of your field, neither shall you gather the gleanings of your harvest.
10 Ni nou p ap ranmase ti rès fwi nan chan rezen nou yo. Nou va kite yo pou malere yo ak etranje yo. Mwen se SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an.
You shall not glean your vineyard, neither shall you gather the fallen grapes of your vineyard; you shall leave them for the poor and for the foreigner. I am the LORD your God.
11 “‘Nou pa pou vòlè, ni twonpe, ni manti youn ak lòt.
"'You shall not steal; neither shall you deal falsely, nor lie to one another.
12 “‘Nou pa pou fè fo sèman nan non Mwen pou degrade non a Bondye nou an. Mwen se SENYÈ a.
"'You shall not swear by my name falsely, and profane the name of your God. I am the LORD.
13 “‘Nou pa pou oprime vwazen nou, ni vòlè li. Salè a yon ouvriye jounalye pa pou rete nan men nou tout lannwit pou rive nan maten.
"'You shall not oppress your neighbor, nor rob him. The wages of a hired servant shall not remain with you all night until the morning.
14 “‘Nou pa pou anmède yon moun soud, ni mete yon obstak pou fè avèg la tonbe, men nou va gen krentif pou Bondye nou an. Mwen se SENYÈ a.
"'You shall not curse the deaf, nor put a stumbling block before the blind; but you shall fear your God. I am the LORD.
15 “‘Nou pa pou fè lenjistis nan jijman nou yo. Nou pa pou apiye vè malere a, ni apiye vè moun pwisan an, men nou va jije vwazen nou avèk jistis.
"'You shall do no injustice in judgment: you shall not be partial to the poor, nor show favoritism to the great; but you shall judge your neighbor in righteousness.
16 “‘Nou pa pou mache bay kout lang pami pèp nou an. Nou pa pou fè zak kont lavi vwazen nou yo. Mwen se SENYÈ a.
"'You shall not go up and down as a slanderer among your people; neither shall you stand against the life of your neighbor. I am the LORD.
17 “‘Nou pa pou rayi pwochen peyi nou nan kè nou. Nou mèt toujou korije vwazen nou, pou nou pa pote peche akoz li.
"'You shall not hate your brother in your heart. You shall surely rebuke your neighbor, and not bear sin because of him.
18 “‘Nou pa pou pran vanjans ni pote lahèn nan kè nou kont fis pèp nou an; men nou va renmen pwochen nou tankou tèt nou. Mwen se SENYÈ a.
"'You shall not take vengeance, nor bear any grudge against the children of your people; but you shall love your neighbor as yourself. I am the LORD.
19 “‘Se pou nou kenbe règleman Mwen yo. Nou pa pou fè kwazman de ras bèf. Nou pa pou plante chan nou avèk de kalite grenn; Ni pou abiye ak yon vètman ki gen de kalite twal ki mele ansanm.
"'You shall keep my statutes. "'You shall not crossbreed different kinds of animals. "'you shall not sow your field with two kinds of seed; "'neither shall there come upon you a garment made of two kinds of material.
20 “‘Alò, si yon nonm kouche nan zak seksyèl avèk yon fanm ki se yon esklav ki te pwomèt pou yon lòt gason, men ki pa t peye ranson li, ni pa t bay li libète l, li va pini. Malgre sa, yo p ap mete li a lanmò, paske li pa t lib.
"'If a man lies carnally with a woman who is a slave girl, pledged to be married to another man, and not ransomed, or given her freedom; they shall be punished. They shall not be put to death, because she was not free.
21 Gason an va pote ofrann koupab li devan SENYÈ a nan pòtay tant asanble a; yon belye pou ofrann koupab la.
He shall bring his trespass offering to the LORD, to the door of the Tent of Meeting, even a ram for a trespass offering.
22 Prèt la va fè ekspiyasyon pou li avèk belye ofrann koupab la devan SENYÈ a pou peche ke li te fè a, e selon peche ke li te fè a, li va vin padone.
The priest shall make atonement for him with the ram of the trespass offering before the LORD for his sin which he has committed: and the sin which he has committed shall be forgiven him.
23 “‘Lè nou antre nan peyi sa a, e plante tout kalite bwa pou manje, alò, nou va kontwole premye fwi pa yo kòm entèdi. Pandan twazan, li va entèdi a nou menm. Li p ap pou manje.
"'When you come into the land, and have planted all kinds of trees for food, then you shall count their fruit as forbidden. Three years shall they be forbidden to you. It shall not be eaten.
24 Nan katriyèm ane a, tout fwi li yo va vin sen. Yo va vin yon ofrann lwanj bay SENYÈ a.
But in the fourth year all its fruit shall be holy, for giving praise to the LORD.
25 Nan senkyèm ane a, nou gen pou manje nan fwi li, pou donn li kapab vin anpil pou nou menm. Mwen se SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an.
In the fifth year you shall eat its fruit, that it may yield its increase to you. I am the LORD your God.
26 “‘Nou pa pou manje anyen avèk san ki rete nan li. Nou pa pou pratike maji ni divinasyon zetwal ni predi evenman k ap vin rive.
"'You shall not eat any meat with the blood still in it; neither shall you practice divination, nor practice sorcery.
27 “‘Nou pa pou koupe kwen cheve tèt nou, ni taye sou kote bab nou.
"'You shall not cut the hair on the sides of your heads, neither shall you clip off the edge of your beard.
28 “‘Nou pa pou koupe kò nou pou moun mouri yo, ni fè tatou sou kò nou: Mwen se SENYÈ a.
"'You shall not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor tattoo any marks on you. I am the LORD.
29 “‘Pa degrade pwòp fi nou pou fè l vin yon pwostitiye, sòf ke peyi a menm ta tonbe nan pwostitisyon, e ranpli avèk tout kalite bagay lèd.
"'Do not profane your daughter, to make her a prostitute; lest the land fall to prostitution, and the land become full of wickedness.
30 “‘Nou va kenbe Saba Mwen yo, e nou va onore sanktyè Mwen an. Mwen se SENYÈ a.
"'You shall keep my Sabbaths, and reverence my sanctuary; I am the LORD.
31 “‘Pa vire bò kote moun ki fè kontak ak mò yo, ni ki chache move lespri yo. Pa chache yo pou nou pa vin degrade pa yo menm. Mwen se SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an.
"'Do not turn to spirits of the dead, and do not inquire of familiar spirits, to be defiled by them. I am the LORD your God.
32 “‘Nou va leve devan moun cheve blanch yo. Nou va bay lonè a granmoun yo. Nou va gen lakrent pou Bondye nou an. Mwen se SENYÈ a.
"'You shall rise up before the gray head, and honor the face of an old man, and you shall fear your God. I am the LORD.
33 “‘Lè yon etranje rete avèk nou nan peyi nou, nou pa pou fè l tò.
"'If a stranger lives as a foreigner with you in your land, you shall not do him wrong.
34 Etranje ki rete avèk nou an va, pou nou, tankou pwòp moun peyi nou. Nou va renmen li tankou tèt nou, paske nou te etranje nan peyi Égypte la. Mwen se SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an.
The stranger who lives as a foreigner with you shall be to you as the native-born among you, and you shall love him as yourself; for you lived as foreigners in the land of Egypt. I am the LORD your God.
35 Nou pa pou fè move jijman, ni nan mezire longè, pwa, oubyen kapasite.
"'You shall do no unrighteousness in judgment, in measures of length, of weight, or of quantity.
36 Fòk balans nou yo jis, e pèz pwa nou yo jis; yon efa (22 lit) ki jis, e yon in (36 lit) ki jis. Mwen se SENYÈ nou an, ki te fè nou sòti nan peyi Égypte la.
You shall have just balances, just weights, a just ephah, and a just hin. I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt.
37 “‘Se konsa nou va obsève tout règleman Mwen yo ak tout òdonans Mwen yo, e fè yo. Mwen se SENYÈ a.’”
You shall observe all my statutes, and all my ordinances, and do them. I am the LORD.'"
