< Leviticus 19 >

1 Locutus est Dominus ad Moysen, dicens:
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
2 Loquere ad omnem cœtum filiorum Israel, et dices ad eos: Sancti estote, quia ego sanctus sum, Dominus Deus vester.
Speak to the congregation of the children of Israel, and you shall say to them, You shall be holy; for I the Lord your God [am] holy.
3 Unusquisque patrem suum, et matrem suam timeat. Sabbata mea custodite. Ego Dominus Deus vester.
Let every one of you reverence his father and his mother; and you shall keep my sabbaths: I [am] the Lord your God.
4 Nolite converti ad idola, nec deos conflatiles faciatis vobis. Ego Dominus Deus vester.
You shall not follow idols, and you shall not make to yourselves molten gods: I [am] the Lord your God.
5 Si immolaveritis hostiam pacificorum Domino ut sit placabilis,
And if you will sacrifice a peace-offering to the Lord, you shall offer it acceptable from yourselves.
6 eo die quo fuerit immolata, comedetis eam, et die altero: quidquid autem residuum fuerit in diem tertium, igne comburetis.
In what day soever you shall sacrifice it, it shall be eaten; and on the following day, and if any of it should be left till the third day, it shall be thoroughly burnt with fire.
7 Si quis post biduum comederit ex ea, profanus erit, et impietatis reus:
And if it should be at all eaten on the third day, it is unfit for sacrifice: it shall not be accepted.
8 portabitque iniquitatem suam, quia sanctum Domini polluit, et peribit anima illa de populo suo.
And he that eats it shall bear his iniquity, because he has profaned the holy things of the Lord; and the souls that eat it shall be destroyed from among their people.
9 Cumque messueris segetes terræ tuæ, non tondebis usque ad solum superficiem terræ: nec remanentes spicas colliges.
And when you reap the harvest of your land, you shall not complete the reaping of your field with exactness, and you shall not gather that which falls from your reaping.
10 Neque in vinea tua racemos et grana decidentia congregabis, sed pauperibus et peregrinis carpenda dimittes. Ego Dominus Deus vester.
And you shall not go over the gathering of your vineyard, neither shall you gather the remaining grapes of your vineyard: you shall leave them for the poor and the stranger: I am the Lord your God.
11 Non facietis furtum. Non mentiemini, nec decipiet unusquisque proximum suum.
You shall not steal, you shall not lie, neither shall one bear false witness as an informer against his neighbor.
12 Non periurabis in nomine meo, nec pollues nomen Dei tui. Ego Dominus.
And you shall not swear unjustly by my name, and you shall not profane the holy name of your God: I am the Lord your God.
13 Non facies calumniam proximo tuo, nec vi opprimes eum. Non morabitur opus mercenarii tui apud te usque mane.
You shall not injure your neighbor, neither do you rob [him], neither shall the wages of your hireling remain with you until the morning.
14 Non maledices surdo, nec coram cæco pones offendiculum: sed timebis Dominum Deum tuum, quia ego sum Dominus.
You shall not revile the deaf, neither shall you put a stumbling block in the way of the blind; and you shall fear the Lord your God: I am the Lord your God.
15 Non facies quod iniquum est, nec iniuste iudicabis. Non consideres personam pauperis, nec honores vultum potentis. Iuste iudica proximo tuo.
You shall not act unjustly in judgment: you shall not accept the person of the poor, nor admire the person of the mighty; with justice shall you judge your neighbor.
16 Non eris criminator, nec susurro in populo. Non stabis contra sanguinem proximi tui. Ego Dominus.
You shall not walk deceitfully among your people; you shall not rise up against the blood of your neighbor: I am the Lord your God.
17 Non oderis fratrem tuum in corde tuo, sed publice argue eum, ne habeas super illo peccatum.
You shall not hate your brother in your heart: you shall in any wise rebuke your neighbor, so you shall not bear sin on his account.
18 Non quæras ultionem, nec memor eris iniuriæ civium tuorum. Diliges amicum tuum sicut teipsum. Ego Dominus.
And your hand shall not avenge you; and you shall not be angry with the children of your people; and you shall love your neighbor as yourself; I am the Lord.
19 Leges meas custodite. Iumentum tuum non facies coire cum alterius generis animantibus. Agrum tuum non seres diverso semine. Veste, quæ ex duobus texta est, non indueris.
You shall observe my law: you shall not let your cattle gender with one of a different kind, and you shall not sow your vineyard with diverse seed; and you shall not put upon yourself a mingled garment woven of two [materials].
20 Homo si dormierit cum muliere coitu seminis, quæ sit ancilla etiam nubilis, et tamen pretio non redempta, nec libertate donata: vapulabunt ambo, et non morientur, quia non fuit libera.
And if any one lie carnally with a woman, and she should be a home-servant kept for a man, and she has not been ransomed, [and] her freedom has not been given to her, they shall be visited [with punishment]; but they shall not die, because she was not set at liberty.
21 Pro delicto autem suo offeret Domino ad ostium tabernaculi testimonii arietem:
And he shall bring for his trespass to the Lord to the door of the tabernacle of witness, a ram for a trespass-offering.
22 orabitque pro eo sacerdos, et pro peccato eius coram Domino, et repropitiabitur ei, dimitteturque peccatum.
And the priest shall make atonement for him with the ram of the trespass-offering, before the Lord, for the sin which he sinned; and the sin which he sinned shall be forgiven him.
23 Quando ingressi fueritis terram, et plantaveritis in ea ligna pomifera, auferetis præputia eorum: poma, quæ germinant, immunda erunt vobis, nec edetis ex eis.
And whenever you shall enter into the land which the Lord your God gives you, and shall plant any fruit tree, then shall you purge away its uncleanness; its fruit shall be three years uncleansed to you, it shall not be eaten.
24 Quarto autem anno omnis fructus eorum sanctificabitur laudabilis Domino.
And in the fourth year all its fruit shall be holy, a subject of praise to the Lord.
25 Quinto autem anno comedetis fructus, congregantes poma quæ proferunt. Ego Dominus Deus vester.
And in the fifth year you shall eat the fruit, its produce is an increase to you. I am the Lord your God.
26 Non comedetis cum sanguine. Non augurabimini, nec observabitis somnia.
Eat not on the mountains, nor shall you employ auguries, nor divine by inspection of birds.
27 Neque in rotundum attondebitis comam: nec radetis barbam.
You shall not make a round cutting of the hair of your head, nor disfigure your beard.
28 Et super mortuo non incidetis carnem vestram, neque figuras aliquas, aut stigmata facietis vobis. Ego Dominus.
And you shall not make cuttings in your body for a [dead] body, and you shall not inscribe on yourselves any marks. I am the Lord your God.
29 Ne prostituas filiam tuam, ne contaminetur terra, et impleatur piaculo.
You shall not profane your daughter to prostitute her; so the land shall not go a whoring, and the land be filled with iniquity.
30 Sabbata mea custodite, et Sanctuarium meum metuite. Ego Dominus.
You shall keep my sabbaths, and reverence my sanctuaries: I am the Lord.
31 Non declinetis ad magos, nec ab ariolis aliquid sciscitemini, ut polluamini per eos. Ego Dominus Deus vester.
You shall not attend to those who have in them divining spirits, nor attach yourselves to enchanters, to pollute yourselves with them: I am the Lord your God.
32 Coram cano capite consurge, et honora personam senis: et time Dominum Deum tuum. Ego sum Dominus.
You shall rise up before the hoary head, and honor the face of the old man, and shall fear your God: I am the Lord your God.
33 Si habitaverit advena in terra vestra, et moratus fuerit inter vos, non exprobretis ei:
And if there should come to you a stranger in your land, you shall not afflict him.
34 sed sit inter vos quasi indigena: et diligetis eum quasi vosmetipsos: fuistis enim et vos advenæ in Terra Ægypti. Ego Dominus Deus vester.
The stranger that comes to you shall be among you as the native, and you shall love him as yourself; for you were strangers in the land of Egypt: I am the Lord your God.
35 Nolite facere iniquum aliquid in iudicio, in regula, in pondere, in mensura.
You shall not act unrighteously in judgment, in measures and weights and scales.
36 Statera iusta, et æqua sint pondera, iustus modius, æquusque sextarius. Ego Dominus Deus vester, qui eduxi vos de Terra Ægypti.
There shall be among you just balances and just weights and just liquid measure. I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt.
37 Custodite omnia præcepta mea, et universa iudicia, et facite ea. Ego Dominus.
And you shall keep all my law and all my ordinances, and you shall do them: I am the Lord your God.
