Leviticus 22
1 Locutus quoque est Dominus ad Moysen, dicens:
AND the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,
2 Loquere ad Aaron et ad filios eius, ut caveant ab his quæ consecrata sunt filiorum Israel, et non contaminent nomen sanctificatorum mihi, quæ ipsi offerunt. ego Dominus.
Speak unto Aaron and to his sons, that they separate themselves from the holy things of the children of Israel, and that they profane not my holy name in those things which they hallow unto me: I am the Lord.
3 Dic ad eos, et ad posteros eorum: Omnis homo, qui accesserit de stirpe vestra ad ea quæ consecrata sunt, et quæ obtulerunt filii Israel Domino, in quo est immunditia, peribit coram Domino. ego sum Dominus.
Say unto them, Whosoever he be of all your seed among your generations, that goeth unto the holy things, which the children of Israel hallow unto the Lord, having his uncleanness upon him, that soul shall be cut off from my presence: I am the Lord.
4 Homo de semine Aaron, qui fuerit leprosus, aut patiens fluxum seminis, non vescetur de his quæ sanctificata sunt mihi donec sanetur. Qui tetigerit immundum super mortuo, et ex quo egreditur semen quasi coitus,
What man soever of the seed of Aaron is a leper, or hath a running issue; he shall not eat of the holy things, until he be clean. And whoso toucheth any thing that is unclean by the dead, or a man whose seed goeth from him;
5 et qui tangit reptile, et quodlibet immundum, cuius tactus est sordidus,
Or whosoever toucheth any creeping thing, whereby he may be made unclean, or a man of whom he may take uncleanness, whatsoever uncleanness he hath;
6 immundus erit usque ad vesperum, et non vescetur his quæ sanctificata sunt: sed cum laverit carnem suam aqua,
The soul which hath touched any such shall be unclean until even, and shall not eat of the holy things, unless he wash his flesh with water.
7 et occubuerit sol, tunc mundatus vescetur de sanctificatis, quia cibus illius est.
And when the sun is down, he shall be clean, and shall afterward eat of the holy things; because it is his food.
8 Morticinum et captum a bestia non comedent, nec polluentur in eis. ego sum Dominus.
That which dieth of itself, or is torn with beasts, he shall not eat to defile himself therewith: I am the Lord.
9 Custodiant præcepta mea, ut non subiaceant peccato, et moriantur in Sanctuario, cum polluerint illud. ego Dominus qui sanctifico eos.
They shall therefore keep mine ordinance, lest they bear sin for it, and die therefore, if they profane it: I the Lord do sanctify them.
10 Omnis alienigena non comedet de sanctificatis, inquilinus sacerdotis, et mercenarius non vescentur ex eis.
There shall no stranger eat of the holy thing: a sojourner of the priest, or an hired servant, shall not eat of the holy thing.
11 Quem autem sacerdos emerit, et qui vernaculus domus eius fuerit, his comedent ex eis.
But if the priest buy any soul with his money, he shall eat of it, and he that is born in his house: they shall eat of his meat.
12 Si filia sacerdotis cuilibet ex populo nupta fuerit: de his quæ sanctificata sunt, et de primitiis non vescetur.
If the priest’s daughter also be married unto a stranger, she may not eat of an offering of the holy things.
13 sin autem vidua, vel repudiata, et absque liberis reversa fuerit ad domum patris sui: sicut puella consueverat, aletur cibis patris sui. Omnis alienigena comedendi ex eis non habet potestatem.
But if the priest’s daughter be a widow, or divorced, and have no child, and is returned unto her father’s house, as in her youth, she shall eat of her father’s meat: but there shall no stranger eat thereof.
14 Qui comederit de sanctificatis per ignorantiam, addet quintam partem cum eo quod comedit, et dabit sacerdoti in Sanctuarium.
And if a man eat of the holy thing unwittingly, then he shall put the fifth part thereof unto it, and shall give it unto the priest with the holy thing.
15 Nec contaminabunt sanctificata filiorum Israel, quæ offerunt Domino:
And they shall not profane the holy things of the children of Israel, which they offer unto the Lord;
16 ne forte sustineant iniquitatem delicti sui, cum sanctificata comederint. ego Dominus qui sanctifico eos.
Or suffer them to bear the iniquity of trespass, when they eat their holy things: for I the Lord do sanctify them.
17 Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen, dicens:
And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,
18 Loquere ad Aaron et filios eius et ad omnes filios Israel, dicesque ad eos: Homo de domo Israel, et de advenis qui habitant apud vos, qui obtulerit oblationem suam, vel vota solvens, vel sponte offerens, quidquid illud obtulerit in holocaustum Domini,
Speak unto Aaron, and to his sons, and unto all the children of Israel, and say unto them, Whatsoever he be of the house of Israel, or of the strangers in Israel, that will offer his oblation for all his vows, and for all his freewill offerings, which they will offer unto the Lord for a burnt offering;
19 ut offeratur per vos, masculus immaculatus erit ex bobus, et ovibus, et ex capris:
Ye shall offer at your own will a male without blemish, of the beeves, of the sheep, or of the goats.
20 si maculam habuerit, non offeretis, neque erit acceptabile.
But whatsoever hath a blemish, that shall ye not offer: for it shall not be acceptable for you.
21 Homo qui obtulerit victimam pacificorum Domino, vel vota solvens, vel sponte offerens, tam de bobus quam de ovibus, immaculatum offeret, ut acceptabile sit: omnis macula non erit in eo.
And whosoever offereth a sacrifice of peace offerings unto the Lord to accomplish his vow, or a freewill offering in beeves or sheep, it shall be perfect to be accepted; there shall be no blemish therein.
22 Si cæcum fuerit, si fractum, si cicatricem habens, si papulas, aut scabiem, aut impetiginem: non offeretis ea Domino, nec adolebitis ex eis super altare Domini.
Blind, or broken, or maimed, or having a wen, or scurvy, or scabbed, ye shall not offer these unto the Lord, nor make an offering by fire of them upon the altar unto the Lord.
23 Bovem et ovem, aure et cauda amputatis, voluntarie offerre potes, votum autem ex eis solvi non potest.
Either a bullock or a lamb that hath any thing superfluous or lacking in his parts, that mayest thou offer for a freewill offering; but for a vow it shall not be accepted.
24 Omne animal, quod vel contritis vel tusis, vel sectis ablatisque testiculis est, non offeretis Domino, et in terra vestra hoc omnino ne faciatis.
Ye shall not offer unto the Lord that which is bruised, or crushed, or broken, or cut; neither shall ye make any offering thereof in your land.
25 De manu alienigenæ non offeretis panes Deo vestro, et quidquid aliud dare voluerit: quia corrupta, et maculata sunt omnia: non suscipietis ea.
Neither from a stranger’s hand shall ye offer the bread of your God of any of these; because their corruption is in them, and blemishes be in them: they shall not be accepted for you.
26 Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen, dicens:
And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,
27 Bos, ovis, et capra cum genita fuerint, septem diebus erunt sub ubere matris suæ: die autem octavo, et deinceps offerri poterunt Domino.
When a bullock, or a sheep, or a goat, is brought forth, then it shall be seven days under the dam; and from the eighth day and thenceforth it shall be accepted for an offering made by fire unto the Lord.
28 Sive illa bos, sive ovis, non immolabuntur una die cum fœtibus suis.
And whether it be cow or ewe, ye shall not kill it and her young both in one day.
29 Si immolaveritis hostiam pro gratiarum actione Domino, ut possit esse placabilis,
And when ye will offer a sacrifice of thanksgiving unto the Lord, offer it at your own will.
30 eodem die comedetis eam, non remanebit quidquam in mane alterius diei. ego Dominus.
On the same day it shall be eaten up; ye shall leave none of it until the morrow: I am the Lord.
31 Custodite mandata mea, et facite ea. ego Dominus.
Therefore shall ye keep my commandments, and do them: I am the Lord.
32 Ne polluatis nomen meum sanctum, ut sanctificer in medio filiorum Israel. Ego Dominus qui sanctifico vos,
Neither shall ye profane my holy name; but I will be hallowed among the children of Israel: I am the Lord which hallow you,
33 et eduxi de Terra Ægypti, ut essem vobis in Deum. ego Dominus.
That brought you out of the land of Egypt, to be your God: I am the Lord.
