Trešā Mozus 21
1 Un Tas Kungs sacīja uz Mozu: runā uz tiem priesteriem, Ārona dēliem, un saki tiem: pie miroņa lai (priesteris) nepaliek nešķīsts starp saviem ļaudīm,
Yahweh also said to Moses/me, “Speak to the priests, the sons of Aaron, and say to them,
2 Kā tik vien pie sava asinsrada, kas viņam tuvu rada, pie savas mātes un pie sava tēva un pie sava dēla un pie savas meitas un pie sava brāļa,
‘You priests must not cause yourselves to become unfit to do my work by [touching] corpses. Priests are permitted to touch only the corpses of close relatives, such as the priest’s mother or father or his son or daughter or his brother.
3 Un pie savas māsas, kas vēl jumprava un viņam klāt, kas vēl nav pie vīra, pie tiem tas var palikt nešķīsts.
Priests are also permitted to touch the corpse of a sister if she is not married, because she has no husband [to bury her body].
4 Nešķīstam nebūs palikt kungam pār saviem ļaudīm, sevi apgānot.
Priests must not cause themselves to become unfit to do my work [DOU] by [touching corpses of] people who were married to one of their close relatives.
5 Uz savas galvas tiem nebūs izcirpt plikumu, nedz nogriezt savas bārdas malas, nedz iegriezt zīmes savā miesā.
You priests must not shave your heads or shave the edges of your beards or cut your bodies [to show that you are mourning for someone who has died].
6 Tiem būs svētiem būt savam Dievam un sava Dieva vārdu tiem nebūs sagānīt, jo tie upurē Tā Kunga uguns upurus, sava Dieva maizi, tāpēc tiem būs svētiem būt.
You must act in ways that I, your God, consider to be holy, and not disgrace my name/reputation. You are the ones who present to me the offerings that are burned. [It is as though] those offerings are food for me, your God; so you must act in ways that are holy.
7 Mauku vai apsmietu tiem nebūs ņemt, un sievu, kas atstādināta no sava vīra, tiem nebūs ņemt, jo viņš ir savam Dievam svēts.
You priests must not marry women who have been prostitutes or who have been divorced from their husbands, because you priests are (set apart for me/holy).
8 Tāpēc to turi par svētu, jo viņš upurē tava Dieva maizi; tam būs tev svētam būt, jo Es esmu svēts, Es Tas Kungs, kas jūs svētī.
You must consider that you are holy, because you offer food to me, your God. Consider yourselves to be holy because I, Yahweh, [the one who caused you to be priests and] the one who enables you to be holy, am holy.
9 Ja nu kāda priestera meita sāk maucību dzīt, tā sagāna savu tēvu; ar uguni to būs sadedzināt.
If a priest’s daughter disgraces herself by becoming a prostitute, she disgraces her father; and she must be killed by being burned in a fire.
10 Un tam augstam priesterim starp saviem brāļiem, uz kura galvu svaidāmā eļļa ir izlieta un kas iesvētīts, ka tas apģērbts ar (svētām) drēbēm, tam nebūs savu galvu atsegt nedz savas drēbes saplosīt.
The Supreme Priest is the one among his relatives who has been [appointed for that work] by having his head anointed with olive oil. He is also the one who has been appointed to wear the special garments that priests wear. He must not allow the hair on his [head] to remain uncombed, and he must not tear his clothes [when he is mourning for someone].
11 Tam arī nebūs iet pie neviena miroņa, ne pie sava tēva ne pie savas mātes, tam nebūs palikt nešķīstam.
He must not enter some place where there is a corpse. He must not do that and cause himself to become unfit for his work, even if it is his father or his mother who has died.
12 Un no tās svētās vietas tam nebūs iziet, ka tas nesagāna sava Dieva svēto vietu, jo tas kronis, viņa Dieva svaidāmā eļļa, ir uz viņa; - Es esmu Tas Kungs.
He must not leave the Sacred Tent [to join those who are mourning], because he would cause himself to become unfit for his work and would also defile/desecrate the Sacred Tent. He must not leave the Sacred Tent [at that time], because by being anointed with olive oil he has been (appointed/set apart) to serve his God [in the Sacred Tent]. I, Yahweh, [am the one who am commanding this].
13 Un tam būs ņemt jumpravu par sievu.
Women whom you priests marry must be virgins.
14 Atraitni, vai atstādinātu, vai apsmietu mauku, tādu tam nebūs ņemt, bet jumpravu no saviem ļaudīm viņam būs ņemt par sievu.
You priests must not marry widows or prostitutes or divorced women, because if you did that, [if you later have] sons, they would not be acceptable to be priests among your people. You must marry only virgins from among your own people. I am Yahweh, who sets priests apart to be holy.’”
15 Tam nebūs sagānīt savu dzimumu starp saviem ļaudīm; jo Es esmu Tas Kungs, kas viņu svētī.
16 Un Tas Kungs runāja uz Mozu un sacīja:
Yahweh also said to Moses/me,
17 Runā uz Āronu un saki: nevienam no tava dzimuma jūsu rados, kam kāda vaina, nebūs pieiet, sava Dieva maizi upurēt.
“Say this to Aaron: 'For all future time, none of your descendants who has any defects [on his body] will be allowed to come near [the altar] to offer [sacrifices to me which will be like] [MET] my food:
18 Jo nevienam vīram, kam kāda vaina, nebūs pieiet, ne aklam, ne tizlam, nedz kam vaina ģīmī, nedz kroplim,
No one who is blind or lame or deformed, or whose [face is] disfigured,
19 Nedz kam kāja vai roka lauzta,
no man with a crippled foot or a crippled hand,
20 Nedz kam kupris, nedz kas izdilis, nedz kam plēve pār aci, nedz kam kraupis, nedz kam ēde, nedz kas kaunumā maitāts.
no man who is a hunchback or a dwarf, no man whose eyes are defective, no man who has a skin disease [DOU] or whose testicles have been damaged is allowed to brings sacrifices.
21 Nevienam vīram no priestera Ārona dzimuma, kam ir kāda vaina, nebūs pieiet, uguns upurus nest Tā Kunga priekšā. Viņam ir vaina, viņam nebūs pieiet, sava Dieva maizi upurēt.
No descendant of Aaron, the [first Supreme] Priest, who has any defect is allowed to come to the altar to offer to me, his God, sacrifices that will be burned.
22 Sava Dieva maizi tas var ēst, gan no tām vissvētākajām, gan no tām svētām dāvanām.
Priests who have defects are permitted to eat the various kinds of holy food offered to me.
23 Bet pie tā priekškaramā tam nebūs nākt un nepieiet pie altāra, tāpēc ka viņam ir vaina, lai tas nesagāna Manu svēto vietu; jo Es esmu Tas Kungs, kas tos svētī.
But because of their defects, they must not go near the curtain [in the Sacred Tent] or near the altar, because if they did that, they would desecrate my Sacred Tent. I am Yahweh, the one who sets those places apart as being holy.'”
24 Un Mozus to runāja uz Āronu un uz viņa dēliem un uz visiem Israēla bērniem.
So Moses/I told this to Aaron and to his sons and to all the Israeli people.
