Leviticus 22
1 Locutus quoque est Dominus ad Moysen, dicens:
And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
2 Loquere ad Aaron et ad filios eius, ut caveant ab his quae consecrata sunt filiorum Israel, et non contaminent nomen sanctificatorum mihi, quae ipsi offerunt. ego Dominus.
“Speak to Aaron and to his sons, and they are separated from the holy things of the sons of Israel, and they do not defile My holy Name in what they are hallowing to Me; I [am] YHWH.
3 Dic ad eos, et ad posteros eorum: Omnis homo, qui accesserit de stirpe vestra ad ea quae consecrata sunt, et quae obtulerunt filii Israel Domino, in quo est immunditia, peribit coram Domino. ego sum Dominus.
Say to them: Throughout your generations, any man who draws near, out of all your seed, to the holy things which the sons of Israel sanctify to YHWH, and his uncleanness [is] on him—indeed, that person has been cut off from before My face; I [am] YHWH.
4 Homo de semine Aaron, qui fuerit leprosus, aut patiens fluxum seminis, non vescetur de his quae sanctificata sunt mihi donec sanetur. Qui tetigerit immundum super mortuo, et ex quo egreditur semen quasi coitus,
Any man of the seed of Aaron, and he is leprous or has discharging—he does not eat of the holy things until he is clean; and he who is coming against any uncleanness of a person, or a man whose seed [from] intercourse goes out from him,
5 et qui tangit reptile, et quodlibet immundum, cuius tactus est sordidus,
or a man who comes against any teeming thing which is unclean to him, or against a man who is unclean to him, even any of his uncleanness—
6 immundus erit usque ad vesperum, et non vescetur his quae sanctificata sunt: sed cum laverit carnem suam aqua,
the person who comes against it has even been unclean until the evening, and does not eat of the holy things, but has bathed his flesh with water,
7 et occubuerit sol, tunc mundatus vescetur de sanctificatis, quia cibus illius est.
and the sun has gone in, and he has been clean, and afterward he eats of the holy things, for it [is] his food;
8 Morticinum et captum a bestia non comedent, nec polluentur in eis. ego sum Dominus.
he does not eat a carcass or torn thing, to become unclean with it; I [am] YHWH.
9 Custodiant praecepta mea, ut non subiaceant peccato, et moriantur in Sanctuario, cum polluerint illud. ego Dominus qui sanctifico eos.
And they have kept My charge, and bear no sin for it, that they have died for it when they defile it; I [am] YHWH sanctifying them.
10 Omnis alienigena non comedet de sanctificatis, inquilinus sacerdotis, et mercenarius non vescentur ex eis.
And no stranger eats of the holy thing; a settler [with] a priest and a hired worker does not eat of the holy thing;
11 Quem autem sacerdos emerit, et qui vernaculus domus eius fuerit, his comedent ex eis.
but when a priest buys a person, the purchase of his money, he eats of it, also one born in his house; they eat of his bread.
12 Si filia sacerdotis cuilibet ex populo nupta fuerit: de his quae sanctificata sunt, et de primitiis non vescetur.
And a priest’s daughter, when she is a strange man’s, she does not eat of the raised-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 a priest’s daughter, when she is a widow, or cast out, and has no seed, and has turned back to the house of her father, as [in] her youth, she eats of her father’s bread; but no stranger eats of it.
14 Qui comederit de sanctificatis per ignorantiam, addet quintam partem cum eo quod comedit, et dabit sacerdoti in Sanctuarium.
And when a man eats of a holy thing through ignorance, then he has added its fifth part to it, and has given [it] to the priest, with the holy thing;
15 Nec contaminabunt sanctificata filiorum Israel, quae offerunt Domino:
and they do not defile the holy things of the sons of Israel—that which they lift up to YHWH,
16 ne forte sustineant iniquitatem delicti sui, cum sanctificata comederint. ego Dominus qui sanctifico eos.
or have caused them to bear the iniquity of the guilt-offering in their eating their holy things; for I [am] YHWH, sanctifying them.”
17 Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen, dicens:
And YHWH speaks to 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 to Aaron, and to his sons, and to all the sons of Israel, and you have said to them: Any man of the house of Israel, or of the sojourners in Israel, who brings his offering near, of all his vows, or of all his willing offerings which they bring near to YHWH for a burnt-offering—
19 ut offeratur per vos, masculus immaculatus erit ex bobus, et ovibus, et ex capris:
[you bring near] at your pleasure a perfect one, a male of the herd, of the sheep or of the goats;
20 si maculam habuerit, non offeretis, neque erit acceptabile.
nothing in which [is] blemish do you bring near, for it is not for a pleasing thing 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 when a man brings a sacrifice of peace-offerings near to YHWH, to complete a special vow, or for a willing-offering, of the herd or of the flock, it is perfect for a pleasing thing: no blemish is in it.
22 Si caecum 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] an oozing sore [[or a defect of the eye]], or itch, or scab—you do not bring these near to YHWH, and you do not make a fire-offering from them on the altar to YHWH.
23 Bovem et ovem, aure et cauda amputatis, voluntarie offerre potes, votum autem ex eis solvi non potest.
As for an ox or sheep [that] is deformed or stunted—you make it a willing-offering, but it is not pleasing for a vow.
24 Omne animal, quod vel contritis vel tonsis, vel sectis ablatisque testiculis est, non offeretis Domino, et in terra vestra hoc omnino ne faciatis.
As for bruised, or beaten, or torn, or cut—you do not bring [it] near to YHWH; and in your land you do not do it.
25 De manu alienigenae non offeretis panes Deo vestro, et quidquid aliud dare voluerit: quia corrupta, et maculata sunt omnia: non suscipietis ea.
And you do not bring the bread of your God near from the hand of a son of a stranger, from any of these, for their corruption [is] in them; blemish [is] in them; they are not pleasing for you.”
26 Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen, dicens:
And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
27 Bos, ovis, et capra cum genita fuerint, septem diebus erunt sub ubere matris suae: die autem octavo, et deinceps offerri poterunt Domino.
“When ox, or lamb, or goat is born, and it has been under its mother [for] seven days, then from the eighth day and from now on, it is pleasing for an offering, a fire-offering to YHWH;
28 Sive illa bos, sive ovis, non immolabuntur una die cum foetibus suis.
but an ox or sheep—you do not slaughter it and its young one in one day.
29 Si immolaveritis hostiam pro gratiarum actione Domino, ut possit esse placabilis,
And when you sacrifice a sacrifice of thanksgiving to YHWH, you sacrifice at your pleasure;
30 eodem die comedetis eam, non remanebit quidquam in mane alterius diei. ego Dominus.
it is eaten on that day—you do not leave of it until morning; I [am] YHWH.
31 Custodite mandata mea, et facite ea. ego Dominus.
And you have kept my commands and have done them; I [am] YHWH;
32 Ne polluatis nomen meum sanctum, ut sanctificer in medio filiorum Israel. Ego Dominus qui sanctifico vos,
and you do not defile My holy Name, and I have been hallowed in the midst of the sons of Israel; I [am] YHWH, sanctifying you,
33 et eduxi de Terra Aegypti, ut essem vobis in Deum. ego Dominus.
who am bringing you up out of the land of Egypt, to become your God; I [am] YHWH.”
