Imamat 17
1 TUHAN menyuruh Musa
And the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,
2 memberikan peraturan-peraturan ini kepada Harun, anak-anaknya dan seluruh bangsa Israel.
Speake vnto Aaron, and to his sonnes, and to all the children of Israel, and say vnto them, This is the thing which the Lord hath commanded, saying,
3 Apabila seorang bangsa Israel mempersembahkan sapi, domba atau kambing kepada TUHAN, binatang itu harus disembelihnya di depan pintu Kemah TUHAN. Kalau ia menyembelihnya di tempat lain, ia melanggar hukum karena menumpahkan darah. Ia tidak lagi dianggap anggota umat Allah.
Whosoeuer he be of the house of Israel that killeth a bullocke, or lambe, or goate in the hoste, or that killeth it out of the hoste,
And bringeth it not vnto the doore of the Tabernacle of the Congregation to offer an offring vnto the Lord before the Tabernacle of the Lord, blood shalbe imputed vnto that man: he hath shed blood, wherefore that man shall be cut off from among his people.
5 Perintah itu dimaksudkan supaya bangsa Israel membawa ke Kemah TUHAN semua binatang persembahan yang biasanya mereka sembelih di ladang. Mereka wajib membawa persembahan itu kepada imam di depan pintu Kemah TUHAN dan menyembelihnya di situ untuk kurban perdamaian.
Therefore the children of Israel shall bring their offrings, which they would offer abroad in the fielde, and present the vnto ye Lord at the doore of the Tabernacle of ye Congregation by ye Priest, and offer them for peace offrings vnto the Lord.
6 Imam harus menyiramkan darah binatang itu pada sisi-sisi mezbah di depan pintu Kemah TUHAN lalu membakar lemaknya supaya baunya menyenangkan hati TUHAN.
Then the Priest shall sprinkle the blood vpon the Altar of the Lord before the doore of the Tabernacle of the Congregation, and burne the fat for a sweete sauour vnto the Lord.
7 Bangsa Israel harus tetap setia kepada TUHAN dan sekali-kali tak boleh menyembelih binatang di ladang-ladang untuk persembahan kepada jin-jin jahat. Peraturan itu harus ditaati untuk selama-lamanya.
And they shall no more offer their offerings vnto deuils, after whom they haue gone a whoring: this shalbe an ordinance for euer vnto them in their generations.
8 Apabila seorang Israel atau seorang asing yang tinggal menetap di antara orang Israel mempersembahkan kurban bakaran atau kurban lain
Also thou shalt say vnto them, whosoeuer he be of the house of Israel, or of the strangers which soiourne among them, that offreth a burnt offring or sacrifice,
9 kepada TUHAN, ia harus mempersembahkannya di depan pintu Kemah TUHAN. Kalau ia mempersembahkannya di tempat lain, ia tak boleh lagi dianggap anggota umat Allah.
And bringeth it not vnto ye doore of the Tabernacle of the Congregation to offer it vnto the Lord, euen that man shall be cut off from his people.
10 Kalau seorang Israel atau seorang asing yang tinggal menetap di antara orang Israel makan darah, ia akan dihukum TUHAN dan tidak lagi dianggap anggota umat-Nya.
Likewise whosoeuer he be of the house of Israel, or of the strangers that soiourne among them, that eateth any blood, I will euen set my face against that person that eateth blood, and will cut him off from among his people.
11 Nyawa setiap makhluk ada di dalam darahnya. Karena itu TUHAN memerintahkan supaya semua darah disiramkan ke atas mezbah supaya dosa-dosa umat dihapuskan. Darah yaitu nyawa, menghapuskan dosa.
For the life of the flesh is in the blood, and I haue giuen it vnto you to offer vpon the altar, to make an atonement for your soules: for this blood shall make an atonement for the soule.
12 Itulah sebabnya bangsa Israel atau orang asing yang menetap di antara mereka dilarang makan darah.
Therefore I saide vnto ye children of Israel, None of you shall eate blood: neither the stranger that soiourneth among you, shall eate blood.
13 Apabila seorang Israel atau seorang asing yang tinggal menetap di antara bangsa Israel menangkap burung atau binatang lain yang tidak haram, ia harus mengeluarkan darah binatang itu dan menimbuninya dengan tanah.
Moreouer whosoeuer he be of the children of Israel, or of the strangers that soiourne among the, which by hunting taketh any beast or foule that may be eaten, he shall powre out the blood thereof, and couer it with dust:
14 Nyawa setiap makhluk ada di dalam darahnya, sebab itu TUHAN melarang bangsa Israel makan darah. Setiap orang yang melakukan perbuatan terlarang itu tidak lagi dianggap anggota umat Allah.
For ye life of all flesh is his blood, it is ioyned with his life: therefore I sayd vnto the children of Israel, Ye shall eate the blood of no flesh: for the life of al flesh is the blood thereof: whosoeuer eateth it, shalbe cut off.
15 Setiap orang Israel atau orang asing yang makan daging binatang yang mati dengan sendirinya atau mati diterkam binatang buas, harus mencuci pakaiannya lalu mandi dan menunggu sampai matahari terbenam, barulah ia menjadi bersih.
And euery person that eateth it which dyeth alone, or that which is torne with beastes, whether it be one of the same countrey or a stranger, he shall both wash his clothes, and wash himselfe in water, and be vncleane vnto the euen: after he shalbe cleane.
16 Kalau ia tidak melakukan itu, ia harus menanggung akibatnya.
But if he wash them not, nor wash his flesh, then he shall beare his iniquitie.
