Levitico 23
1 Nagsao ni Yahweh kenni Moises:
Yahweh said to Moses/me,
2 “Agsaoka kadagiti Israelita, ket ibagam kadakuada, 'Dagiti naituding a fiesta a maipaay kenni Yahweh, a masapul nga iwaragawagyo a kas nasantoan a panagtitipon, ket dagiti kadawyan a fiestak.
“Tell the Israeli people about the festivals that I have chosen, the days when you all must gather together [to worship me].”
3 Mabalinkayo nga agtrabaho iti innem nga aldaw, ngem ti maikapito nga aldaw ket naan-anay nga Aldaw a Panaginana, maysa a nasantoan a panagtitipon. Masapul a saankayo nga agtrabaho gapu ta Aldaw a Panaginana daytoy para kenni Yahweh iti amin a lugar a pagnaedanyo.
“You may work for six days [each week], but on the seventh day you must not do any work. You must rest. It is a sacred/holy day when you must gather together [to worship me]. Wherever you live, you must rest on that day.”
4 Dagitoy dagiti naituding a fiesta ni Yahweh, dagiti nasantoan a panagtitipon a masapul nga ipablaakyo kadagiti naituding a tiempoda:
“There are festivals that I have established for you. Those will also be sacred/holy days when you must gather together [to worship me].
5 Iti umuna a bulan, iti maika-sangapulo ket uppat nga aldaw ti bulan iti sumipnget ket ti Fiesta ti Ilalabas ni Yahweh.
[The first festival is] (the Passover/when you remember that I spared your ancestors when I killed all the firstborn Egyptian sons). That festival will begin at twilight/dusk/sunset on the chosen day (each spring/in March or April each year), [and end on the following day].
6 Ti maika-sangapulo ket lima nga aldaw iti isu met laeng a bulan ket ti Fiesta ti Tinapay nga Awan Lebadurana. Masapul a mangankayo iti tinapay nga awan lebadurana iti las-ud iti pito nga aldaw.
The next day, the Festival of Eating Bread That Has No Yeast will begin. That festival will continue for seven days. During that time, the bread that you eat must be made without yeast.
7 Iti umuna nga aldaw, adda iti panagtitiponyo a maipaay kenni Yahweh, masapul a saanyo nga aramiden ti kadawyan a trabahoyo.
On the first day of that festival, you all must stop your regular work and you must gather together [to worship me].
8 Masapul nga agidatonkayo kenni Yahweh iti daton a maipuor iti las-ud iti pito nga aldaw. Ti maikapito nga aldaw ket maysa a panagtitipon a maipaay kenni Yahweh a masapul a saankayo nga agaramid iti kadawyan a trabahoyo.'”
On each of the seven days, you must present to me [several animals to be] an offering/sacrifice to be completely burned [on the altar]. On the seventh day, you all must again stop your regular work and gather to worship me.”
9 Nagsao ni Yahweh kenni Moises, kinunana,
Yahweh also told Moses/me
10 “Agsaoka kadagiti Israelita ket ibagam kadakuada, 'Inton mapankayo iti daga nga itedkonto kadakayo, ken inton agapitkayo, ket nga ipanyo iti padi ti sangkareppet kadagiti umuna a bunga.
to tell the Israeli people [about other festivals]. He said, “When you arrive in the land which I am giving to you, and you harvest your crops [for the first time] there, bring to the priest some of the first grain that you harvest.
11 Itag-aynanto ti sangkareppet iti sangoanan ni Yahweh ket idatagnanto daytoy kenkuana, tapno maawat daytoy iti biangyo. Itag-ay ken idatagto ti padi daytoy kaniak iti aldaw a kalpasan ti Aldaw a Panaginana.
On the day after the [next] Sabbath/rest day, the priest will lift it up [high to dedicate it] to me, in order that I will accept it as your [gift].
12 Iti aldaw nga itag-ayyo ti sangkareppet ken idatagyo daytoy kaniak, masapul nga agidatonkayo iti kalakian nga urbon a karnero nga agtawen iti maysa ken awan iti mulitna a kas daton a maipuor amin kenni Yahweh.
That same day, you must sacrifice to me a one-year-old male lamb that has no defects. You must burn it [on the altar].
13 Masapul a dua nga apagkapullo iti efa iti napino nga arina ti daton a bukbukel a nalaokan iti lana, maysa a daton a mapuoran para kenni Yahweh a mangparnuay iti nabanglo nga ayamuom, ket kakuyog daytoy ti daton a mainum nga arak, a kakapat iti hin (3. 70 a litro).
You must also burn an offering of grain. That offering must consist of (three quarts/3.5 liters) of good flour mixed with [olive] oil. The smell [of those things burning] will be very pleasing to me. Along with that, you must also offer one quart/liter of wine, which will be a liquid offering.
14 Masapul a saankayo a mangan iti tinapay, inuruban man wenno kaan-ani a bukel, agingga iti isu met laeng nga aldaw nga impanyo daytoy a daton iti Diosyo. Agnanayonto daytoy a bilin kadagiti henerasion dagiti tattaoyo, iti tunggal lugar a pagnaedanyo.
Do not eat any bread or any roasted grain or unroasted grain on that day until after you have brought those offerings to me, your God. You must always obey [LIT] those commands, wherever you live.”
15 Masapul a bilangenyo manipud iti aldaw kalpasan dayta nga Aldaw a Panaginana, manipud iti aldaw nga inyegyo ti sangkareppet iti daton tapno maitag-ay ken maidatag, pito a lawas, pito nga Aldaw a Panaginana,
“Seven weeks after the priest offers that grain to me,
16 agingga iti aldaw kalpasan iti maikapito nga Aldaw a Panaginana. Dayta ket, masapul nga agbilangkayo iti limapulo nga aldaw. Ket masapul nga agidatonkayo kenni Yahweh iti daton a baro a bukel.
on the next/50th day after he offers it, [each family] must bring to me an offering from the new crop of grain.
17 Masapul nga irruaryo manipud iti babbalayyo ti dua a tinapay a naaramid iti dua nga apagkapullo iti efa. Masapul a naaramid dagitoy manipud iti napino nga arina ken naluto nga addaan iti lebadura; agbalindanto a daton manipud kadagiti umuna a bunga a maitag-ay ken maidatag kenni Yahweh.
From your homes, bring two loaves of bread [to the priest]. He will lift them up [high to dedicate them] as an offering to me. Those loaves must be baked from three quarts/liters of good flour that has yeast mixed with it. That bread will be an offering to me from the first wheat that you harvest [each year].
18 Masapul nga idatagyo ti tinapay a kakuyog dagiti pito nga urbon a karnero nga agtawen iti maysa ken awan mulitda, maysa a bumaro a baka, ken dua a kalakian a karnero. Masapul a daton a maipuor dagitoy para kenni Yahweh, a kakuyog dagiti datonda a bukbukel ken dagiti datonda a mainum, maysa a daton a maipuor ken mangparnuay iti nabanglo nga ayamuom para kenni Yahweh.
Along with this bread, you must present to me seven one-year-old lambs with no defects, one young bull, and two rams. They must all be completely burned [on the altar]. All those offerings, with the grain offering and the wine offering, will be burned, and the smell [of all those things burning] will be very pleasing to me.
19 Masapul nga agidatonkayo iti maysa a kalakian a kalding para iti daton gapu iti basol, ken dua a kalakian nga urbon a karnero nga agtawen iti maysa a kas daton para iti panagkakadua.
Then you must also kill one male goat to be an offering/sacrifice for your sins, and two one-year-old male lambs to be an offering to enable you to maintain fellowship with me.
20 Masapul nga itag-ay ti padi dagitoy iti sangoanan ni Yahweh, a kakuyog ti tinapay manipud kadagiti umuna a bunga, ken idatagna dagitoy kenkuana a kas daton a kakuyog dagiti dua nga urbon a karnero. Agbalinto dagitoy a nasantoan a daton kenni Yahweh para iti padi.
The priest will lift up these offerings [high to dedicate them] to me. He will also offer the loaves of bread that were baked from the first wheat that you harvest. Those offerings are sacred to me, but they are for the priests [to eat].
21 Masapul nga agiwaragawagkayo iti dayta met laeng nga aldaw. Addanto iti nasantoan a panagtitipon, ket masapul a saanyo nga aramiden ti gagangay a trabahoyo. Agnanayonto daytoy a bilin kadagiti henerasion dagiti tattaoyo, iti tunggal lugar a pagnaedanyo.
On that day, you must stop your regular work and gather to worship me. You must always obey those instructions/commands, and you must obey them wherever you live.
22 Inton apitenyo dagiti maapit iti dagayo, masapul a saanyo nga apiten a naan-anay dagiti adda iti suli dagiti taltalonyo, ket masapul a saanyo nga urnongen dagiti nabati iti apityo. Masapul nga ibatiyo dagitoy para kadagiti marigrigat ken para kadagiti ganggannaet. Siak ni Yahweh a Diosyo.'”
“When you harvest the grain in your fields, do not harvest the grain along the edges of the fields, and do not pick up the grain that the harvesters drop. Leave that grain for the poor people and for the foreigners who are living among you. [Do not forget that it is] I, Yahweh your God, [who am commanding those things]!”
23 Nagsao ni Yahweh kenni Moises, imbagana,
Yahweh also told Moses/me
24 “Agsaoka kadagiti Israelita ken ibagam, 'Iti maikapito a bulan, ti umuna nga aldaw iti dayta a bulan ket napasnek a panaginana para kadakayo, maysa a pananglaglagip a mabuyogan iti panagpuyot kadagiti trumpeta, ken maysa a nasantoan a panagtitipon.
to give these instructions/commands to the Israeli people: “[Each year] in September, on the day that I have chosen, you all must celebrate it by completely resting. You must not do any work on that day. When [the priests] blow their trumpets loudly, you all must gather together to worship me.
25 Masapul a saanyo nga aramiden ti gagangay a trabahoyo, ken masapul nga agidatonkayo iti daton a maipuor para kenni Yahweh.'”
All of you must not do your regular work on that day. Instead, you must present offerings to me that will be burned [on the altar].”
26 Kalpasanna, nagsao ni Yahweh kenni Moises, imbagana,
Yahweh also said to Moses/me,
27 “Ita, ti maikasangapulo nga aldaw iti maikapito a bulan ket agbalinto nga Aldaw ti Pannakapakawan ti basol. Masapul a panagtitipon daytoy a maipaay kenni Yahweh, masapul nga ipakumbabayo dagiti bagbagiyo ken mangidatonkayo iti daton mapuoran para kenni Yahweh.
“You must celebrate a day [on which you request that I] forgive you for the sins that you have committed. That day will be nine days after the festival [when the priests blow] the trumpets. On that day you must (fast/abstain from eating food). You must gather together to worship me and present offerings to me that will be burned [on the altar].
28 Masapul a saankayo nga agtrabaho iti dayta nga aldaw gapu ta dayta ti Aldaw ti Pannakapakawan ti basol, tapno mangaramidkayo iti seremonia ti pannakpakawan para iti bagbagiyo iti sangoanan ni Yahweh a Diosyo.
You must not do any work on that day, because it is the day when the priests will offer sacrifices to me to (atone for/ask me to forgive) your sins.
29 Masapul a mailaksid manipud kadagiti tattaona ti siasinoman a saan a mangipakumbaba iti bagina iti dayta nga aldaw.
You must expel from your group anyone who does not (fast/abstain from eating food) on that day.
30 Siasinoman nga agtrabaho iti dayta nga aldaw, Siak ni Yahweh, dadaelekto isuna manipud kadagiti tattaona.
I will get rid of anyone who does any kind of work on that day.
31 Masapul a saankayo nga agaramid iti aniaman a kita ti trabaho iti dayta nga aldaw. Agnanayonto daytoy a bilin kadagiti henerasion dagiti tattaoyo kadagiti amin a lugar a pagnaedanyo.
You must not work at all! You must always obey those instructions/commands, and you must obey them wherever you live.
32 Masapul a natalna nga Aldaw a Panaginana para kadakayo daytoy nga aldaw, ken ipakumbabayo dagiti bagbagiyo iti maikasiam nga aldaw ti bulan. Masapul a ngilinenyo ti Aldaw a Panaginana manipud iti rabii agingga iti rabii.”
That day will be a day of complete rest for all of you, and on that day you must (fast/abstain from eating food) [to show that you are sorry for having sinned]. That day of rest and (fasting/abstaining from eating food) will begin on the evening before the day in which you ask me to forgive you for your sins, and it will end on the evening of the following day.”
33 Nagsao ni Yahweh kenni Moises, imbagana
Yahweh also said to Moses/me,
34 “Agsaoka kadagiti Israelita, ibagam, 'Fiesta dagiti Abong-abong para kenni Yahweh ti maika-15 nga aldaw iti maikapito a bulan. Agpaut daytoy iti pito nga aldaw.
“Tell the Israeli people that [each year] they must also celebrate a festival of living in temporary shelters. That festival will begin five days after the day in which they request me to forgive them for their sins. It will last for seven days.
35 Iti umuna nga aldaw, masapul nga adda iti nasantoan a panagtitipon. Masapul a saanyo nga aramiden dagiti gagangay a trabahoyo.
On the first day of that festival, the people must gather together to worship me, and they must not do any regular work on that day.
36 Iti las-ud iti pito nga aldaw ket agidatonkayo kenni Yahweh iti daton a mapuoran. Iti maikawalo nga aldaw, masapul nga adda iti nasantoan a panagtitipon, ket masapul nga agidatonkayo kenni Yahweh iti daton a maipuor. Napasnek daytoy a panagtitipon, ken masapul a saanyo nga aramiden dagiti gagangay a trabahoyo.
On each of the seven days of the festival, they must present to me an offering [of animals] that will be burned [on the altar]. On the next day, they must gather again to worship me and present to me another animal that will be burned [on the altar]. That also will be a sacred gathering, and they must not work on that day, either.
37 Dagitoy dagiti naituding a fiesta para kenni Yahweh, a masapul nga iwaragawagyo a kas nasantoan a panagtitipon tapno agidaton kenni Yahweh iti daton mapuoran, daton a maipuor amin ken daton a bukbukel, dagiti sakripisio ken dagiti daton a mainum, iti tunggal bukod dagitoy nga aldaw.
“[To summarize], those are the festivals that I have appointed. Celebrate those sacred festivals by gathering together to present to me all the various offerings that will be burned [on the altar]—animals that will be burned completely, and offerings of grain, and offerings to enable the Israeli people to maintain fellowship with me, and offerings of wine. Each offering must be brought on the day that I have indicated.
38 Mainayonto dagitoy a fiesta iti Aldaw a Panaginana ni Yahweh ken dagiti sagutyo, dagiti amin a kariyo, ken amin dagiti daton a situtulokyo nga ited kenni Yahweh.
(Those festivals must be celebrated/You must celebrate those festivals) in addition to [worshiping on] the (Sabbath days/days of rest). And all those offerings must be given in addition to the offerings that people personally decide to give, and in addition to the offerings that people make to accompany the solemn promises that they have made, or offerings that people make (voluntarily/because they themselves want to).
39 Maipapan iti Fiesta dagiti Abong-abong, iti maika-15 nga aldaw iti maikapito a bulan, inton naurnongyon dagiti umuna a bunga ti daga, masapul a ngilinenyo daytoy a Fiesta ni Yahweh iti las-ud iti pito nga aldaw. Agbalinto a napasnek a panaginana ti umuna nga aldaw, ken agbalinto met a napasnek a panaginana ti maikawalo nga aldaw.
“[Returning to my instructions about] the Festival of Living in Temporary Shelters, you must celebrate this festival after you have harvested all the crops. On the first day and on the last day of that festival, you must rest completely.
40 Iti umuna nga aldaw, masapul nga alaenyo ti kasasayaatan a bunga manipud kadagiti kaykayo, dagiti palatang dagiti palma a kaykayo, ken dagiti nabulong a sanga dagiti narukbos a kaykayo, ken wilow kadagiti waig, ket agrag-okayo iti sangoanan ni Yahweh a Diosyo iti las-ud iti pito nga aldaw.
But on the first day, you are permitted to pick fruit from trees. Cut palm fronds/branches and other leafy branches from trees or from bushes that grow by the streams, [and make shelters/huts to live in for that week]. Then rejoice in my presence for those seven days.
41 Iti pito nga aldaw iti tunggal tawen, masapul a rambakanyo daytoy a fiesta ni Yahweh. Agnanayonto daytoy a bilin kadagiti henerasion dagiti tattaoyo kadagiti amin a lugar a pagnaedanyo. Masapul a rambakanyo daytoy a fiesta iti maikapito a bulan.
You must celebrate this festival for seven days every year. You must never stop obeying my commands/instructions for that festival. You must celebrate it in September.
42 Masapul nga agnaedkayo kadagiti babassit nga abong-abong iti las-ud iti pito nga aldaw. Masapul nga agnaed dagiti amin a naiyanak nga umili nga Israelita kadagiti babassit nga abong-abong iti las-ud iti pito nga aldaw,
During the seven days of that festival, all of you people who have been Israelis your entire lives must live in shelters/huts.
43 tapno dagiti kaputotanyo, dagiti henerasyon, ket maammoanda no kasanok a pinagnaed dagiti Israelita kadagiti kasta nga abong-abong idi inruarko ida manipud iti daga ti Egipto. Siak ni Yahweh a Diosyo.'”
That will remind your descendants that their ancestors lived in shelters [for many years] after I rescued them from Egypt. [Do not forget that] I, Yahweh your God, [am the one who is commanding this].”
44 Iti kastoy a wagas, impablaak ni Moises kadagiti Israelita dagiti naituding a fiesta para kenni Yahweh.
So Moses/I gave to the Israeli people all those instructions concerning the festivals that Yahweh [wanted them to celebrate] each year.
