Leviticus 18
1 LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Moses
And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying:
2 elan fahkang nu sin mwet Israel, “Nga pa LEUM GOD lowos.
Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them: I am the LORD your God.
3 Nik kowos oru ouiya lun mwet Egypt, yen ma kowos tuh muta we meet, ku ouiya lun mwet in acn Canaan, yen su nga ac us kowos nu we.
After the doings of the land of Egypt, wherein ye dwelt, shall ye not do; and after the doings of the land of Canaan, whither I bring you, shall ye not do; neither shall ye walk in their statutes.
4 Akos ma sap luk, ac oru ma nga sapkin. Nga pa LEUM GOD lowos.
Mine ordinances shall ye do, and My statutes shall ye keep, to walk therein: I am the LORD your God.
5 Fahsr tukun oakwuk ac ma sap su nga sot nu suwos. Kowos fin oru ouinge, kowos ac fah moul. Nga pa LEUM GOD.”
Ye shall therefore keep My statutes, and Mine ordinances, which if a man do, he shall live by them: I am the LORD.
6 Nikmet orek kosro nu sin kutena mwet in sou lowos.
None of you shall approach to any that is near of kin to him, to uncover their nakedness. I am the LORD.
7 Nikmet akmwekinye papa tomom ke kom orek kosro nu sin nina kiom. Kom fah tiana akmwekinye nina kiom sifacna.
The nakedness of thy father, and the nakedness of thy mother, shalt thou not uncover: she is thy mother; thou shalt not uncover her nakedness.
8 Nikmet akmwekinye papa tomom ke kom orek kosro nu sin kutena sin mutan kial saya.
The nakedness of thy father's wife shalt thou not uncover: it is thy father's nakedness.
9 Nik kom orek kosro nu sin tamtael lom, ku nu sin acn nutin papa tomom ku nina kiom saya — el finne wi kom matula in lohm sum, ku tia.
The nakedness of thy sister, the daughter of thy father, or the daughter of thy mother, whether born at home, or born abroad, even their nakedness thou shalt not uncover.
10 Nikmet orek kosro nu sin acn nutin wen nutum ku acn nutin acn nutum — ma inge ac fah sie mwe akmwekin nu sum.
The nakedness of thy son's daughter, or of thy daughter's daughter, even their nakedness thou shalt not uncover; for theirs is thine own nakedness.
11 Nikmet orek kosro nu sin acn nutin mutan kien papa tomom — el ma pacna wiom.
The nakedness of thy father's wife's daughter, begotten of thy father, she is thy sister, thou shalt not uncover her nakedness.
12 Kom fah tiana orek kosro nu sin tamtael lun papa tomom, mweyen el ikwen pacna papa tomom.
Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy father's sister: she is thy father's near kinswoman.
13 Kom fah tiana orek kosro nu sin tamtael lun nina kiom, mweyen el ikwen pacna nina kiom.
Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy mother's sister; for she is thy mother's near kinswoman.
14 Nik kom orek kosro nu sin mutan kien tamulel lun papa tomom — el oapana nina se kiom.
Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy fathers brother, thou shalt not approach to his wife: she is thine aunt.
15 Nik kom orek kosro nu sin mutan kien wen nutum,
Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy daughter-in-law: she is thy son' wife; thou shalt not uncover her nakedness.
16 ku nu sin mutan kien tamulel lom.
Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy brother's wife: it is thy brother's nakedness.
17 Nik kom orek kosro nu sin sie mutan nutin sie mutan su kom orek kosro nu se meet, ku nu sin tulik nutin natu. Sahp elos ac sou lom — ac tuh pwanang kom orek pukasr.
Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of a woman and her daughter; thou shalt not take her son's daughter, or her daughter's daughter, to uncover her nakedness: they are near kinswomen; it is lewdness.
18 Nik kom payuk sin tamtael lun mutan kiom, ke lusenna pacl mutan kiom el srakna moul.
And thou shalt not take a woman to her sister, to be a rival to her, to uncover her nakedness, beside the other in her lifetime.
19 Nik kom orek kosro nu sin kutena mutan su oasr ke musen malem lal, mweyen el tia nasnas.
And thou shalt not approach unto a woman to uncover her nakedness, as long as she is impure by her uncleanness.
20 Nik kom orek kosro nu sin mutan kien siena mwet. Ma se inge ac fah akfohkfokye kom.
And thou shalt not lie carnally with thy neighbour's wife, to defile thyself with her.
21 Nikmet sang kutena sin tulik nutum in kisakinyuk nu sin god Molech, mweyen ouiya sacn ac aklusrongtenye Inen LEUM GOD.
And thou shalt not give any of thy seed to set them apart to Molech, neither shalt thou profane the name of thy God: I am the LORD.
22 Wangin sie mukul ac fah oru inkanek in kosro nu sin siepah mukul — God El kwase ouiya sacn.
Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind; it is abomination.
23 Wangin mukul ku mutan ac fah orek kosro nu sin kutena ma orakrak. Kain in elah fohkfok inge ac fah akfohkfokye kom.
And thou shalt not lie with any beast to defile thyself therewith; neither shall any woman stand before a beast, to lie down thereto; it is perversion.
24 Nik kowos akfohkfokye kowos sifacna ke kain in ouiya inge, tuh pa inge ouiya ma akfohkfokye mwet pegan su muta in acn inge meet liki kowos, su LEUM GOD El ac lusak tuh kowos in ku in utyak nu in acn selos.
Defile not ye yourselves in any of these things; for in all these the nations are defiled, which I cast out from before you.
25 Orekma lalos akfohkfokyela acn uh, ouinge LEUM GOD El kalyei acn uh, ac oru tuh acn uh in wotela mwet su tuh muta we.
And the land was defiled, therefore I did visit the iniquity thereof upon it, and the land vomited out her inhabitants.
26 Tusruktu kowos, mwet Israel oayapa mwetsac nukewa su muta inmasrlowos, fah liyaung ma nga sapkin ac oakwuk luk, ac tia oru kutena sin ouiya koluk inge.
Ye therefore shall keep My statutes and Mine ordinances, and shall not do any of these abominations; neither the home-born, nor the stranger that sojourneth among you —
27 (Mweyen mwet ma tuh muta fin acn se inge meet liki kowos, elos tuh oru ouiya koluk inge, pwanang kolukla acn se inge.)
for all these abominations have the men of the land done, that were before you, and the land is defiled —
28 Fin ouinge, acn uh ac fah tia siskowosla, oana ke el tuh sisla mwet pegan su muta we meet liki kowos.
that the land vomit not you out also, when ye defile it, as it vomited out the nation that was before you.
29 Kowos etu lah kutena mwet su oru kutena sin ouiya koluk inge ac fah tia sifil pangpang sie sin mwet lun God.
For whosoever shall do any of these abominations, even the souls that do them shall be cut off from among their people.
30 Ac LEUM GOD El fahk, “Akos oakwuk ma nga sot, ac tia fahsr tukun ouiya lun mwet su tuh muta fin acn se inge meet liki kowos, ac nikmet oru kutena sin ma inge in akfohkfokye kowos sifacna. Nga LEUM GOD lowos.”
Therefore shall ye keep My charge, that ye do not any of these abominable customs, which were done before you, and that ye defile not yourselves therein: I am the LORD your God.
