Leviticus 21
1 LEUM GOD El sapkin nu sel Moses elan fahkang nu sin mwet tol in fwil natul Aaron, ac fahk, “Wangin mwet tol fah sifacna oru elan tia nasnas ke sripen el wi orekma ke mas misa ke pacl sie mwet in sou lal ah misa,
And YHWH says to Moses, “Speak to the priests, sons of Aaron, and you have said to them: No one defiles himself for a [dead] person among his people,
2 sayen nina kial, papa tumal, wen se natul, acn se natul, tamulel se lal,
except for his relation who [is] near to him: for his mother, and for his father, and for his son, and for his daughter, and for his brother,
3 ku tamtael lolap se lal su muta in lohm sel.
and for his sister, the virgin, who is near to him, who has not been to a man; he is defiled for her.
4 El fah tia akfohkfokyal sifacna ke misa lun mwet su kupasr nu sel ke sripen payuk.
A master [priest] does not defile himself among his people—to defile himself;
5 “Wangin mwet tol ac fah resai kutena ip ke sifal, ku kalla sisken alut lal, ku sipik manol in akkalemye lah el asor.
they do not make baldness on their head, and they do not shave the corner of their beard, and they do not make a cutting in their flesh;
6 Enenu elan mutal na ac tia aklusrongtenye Inek. El oru kisa ke mwe mongo nu sik, ke ma inge el enenu in mutal.
they are holy to their God, and they do not defile the Name of their God, for the fire-offerings of YHWH, bread of their God, they are bringing near, and have been holy.
7 Sie mwet tol fah tiana payuk sin sie mutan kosro su eis molin kosro lal, ku sie mutan su tia virgin, ku sie su mukul tumal sisella. Sie mwet tol el mutal.
They do not take a woman of harlotry, or defiled, and they do not take a woman cast out from her husband, for he [is] holy to his God;
8 Enenu mwet uh in akilen mu mwet tol el sie mwet mutal, mweyen el oru kisa ke mwe mongo nu sik. Nga pa LEUM GOD. Nga mutal ac nga oru mwet luk in mutal.
and you have sanctified him, for he is bringing the bread of your God near. He is holy to you, for I, YHWH, sanctifying you, [am] holy.
9 Fin acn nutin sie mwet tol el orek kosro in eis moul kac, el akmwekinye papa tumal, na enenu in isisyak el nwe ke el misa.
And when a daughter of any priest defiles herself by going whoring—she is defiling her father; she is burned with fire.
10 “Oil in akmusra okwokyang tari nu fin sifen Mwet Tol Fulat, ac el akmutalyeyuk in nukum nuknuk lun mwet tol. Ke ma inge tia enenu in miraung sifal, ac el tia enenu in seya nuknuk lal in akkalemye lah el asor.
And the high priest of his brothers, on whose head the anointing oil is poured, and who has consecrated his hand to put on the garments, does not uncover his head, nor tear his garments,
11 El fah tia som nu yen mano misa oan we — finne papa tumal ku nina kial, el fah tia akkolukyal kac.
nor does he come beside any dead person; he does not defile himself for his father and for his mother;
12 Oil in akmusra lun God lal oan facl, ke ma inge el fah tia akfohkfokye Lohm Nuknuk Mutal sik ke el illa liki in som nu ke mas misa. Nga LEUM GOD.
nor does he go out from the sanctuary, nor does he defile the sanctuary of his God, for the separation of the anointing oil of his God [is] on him; I [am] YHWH.
13 El fah payuk sin sie virgin,
And he takes a wife in her virginity;
14 ac tia sie katinmas ku sie mutan su mukul tumal sisella, ku sie mutan kosro su eis molin kosro lal. El fah payukna sin sie virgin in sruf lal sifacna.
a widow, or cast out, or defiled, [or] a harlot—these he does not take, but he takes a virgin of his own people [for] a wife,
15 El fin tia oru ma inge, tulik natul, su fal in mutal, ac fah tia nasnas. Nga LEUM GOD, ac nga srella tari tuh elan Mwet Tol Fulat.”
and he does not defile his seed among his people; for I [am] YHWH, sanctifying him.”
16 LEUM GOD El sapkin nu sel Moses, ac fahk,
And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
17 “Fahkang nu sel Aaron, wangin sie mwet inmasrlon sou lom su oasr kutena acn sukapas ke mano fah ase nu sik mwe kisa mongo. Oakwuk se inge ac fah ma nwe tok.
“Speak to Aaron, saying, No man of your seed throughout their generations in whom there is blemish draws near to bring the bread of his God near,
18 Wangin sie mwet su sukapas in mano fah orek kisa: tia sie su kun, ku ul, ku musalla mano, ku fihkala;
for no man in whom [is] a blemish draws near: a man blind, or lame, or disfigured, or deformed,
19 tia sie su ulla pao ku nia;
or a man in whom there is a breach in the foot, or a breach in the hand,
20 tia sie su foingyak ku sie su srikac; tia sie su maskin muta ku mas ke kolo; ac tia sie eunuch.
or hunchbacked, or a dwarf, or [with] a defect in his eye, or [with] an itch, or [with] a scab, or [with] a broken testicle.
21 Wangin mwet in fwil natul Aaron, mwet tol, su oasr acn musalla in mano fah oru kisa mwe mongo nu sik.
No man in whom is blemish (of the seed of Aaron the priest) comes near to bring the fire-offerings of YHWH near; blemish [is] in him; he does not come near to bring the bread of his God near.
22 Kain mwet se inge ku in kang mwe mongo ma kisakinyuk nu sik, kewana mongo mutal ac mongo arulana mutal,
Bread of his God—from the most holy things and from the holy things—he eats;
23 tusruktu ke sripen el sukapas in mano, el fah tia kalukyang nu ke lisrlisr mutal, ku tuku apkuran nu ke loang uh. El fah tiana akkolukye ma mutal inge, mweyen nga LEUM GOD, ac nga oru tuh ma inge in mutal.”
only, he does not come toward the veil, and he does not draw near to the altar; for blemish [is] in him; and he does not defile My sanctuaries; for I [am] YHWH, sanctifying them.”
24 Pa inge ma Moses el fahk nu sel Aaron, nu sin wen natul Aaron, ac mwet Israel nukewa.
And Moses speaks to Aaron, and to his sons, and to all the sons of Israel.
