Levitikosy 22

1 Ary Jehovah niteny tamin’ i Mosesy, ka nanao hoe:

And the Lord said to Moses,

2 Mitenena amin’ i Arona sy ny zanany mba hitandremany ny amin’ ny tsy hanakekeny ny zava-masìna izay hamasinin’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely ho Ahy tsy hanamavoany ny anarako masìna: Izaho no Jehovah.

Give orders to Aaron and to his sons to keep themselves separate from the holy things of the children of Israel which they give to me, and not to make my holy name common: I am the Lord,

3 Lazao aminy hoe: Izay rehetra maloto amin’ ny zanakareo, hatramin’ ny taranakareo fara mandimby, nefa manakaiky ny zava-masìna izay hamasinin’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely ho an’ i Jehovah, dia hofongorana tsy ho eo anatrehako: Izaho no Jehovah.

Say to them, If any man of all your seed through all your generations, being unclean, comes near the holy things which the children of Israel make holy to the Lord, he will be cut off from before me: I am the Lord.

4 Na iza na iza amin’ ny taranak’ i Arona no boka na marary mitsika dia tsy hihinana ny zava-masìna mandra-pahadiony. Ary izay rehetra mikasika izay maloto amim-paty, na izay lehilahy nialan’ ny azy,

No man of the seed of Aaron who is a leper, or who has a flow from his body, may take of the holy food till he is clean. And any man touching anything which is unclean because of the dead, or any man whose seed goes from him;

5 na izay mikasika biby mandady na mikisaka izay mahaloto, na lehilahy izay mahaloto, na inona na inona no fahalotoany,

Or anyone touching any unclean thing which goes flat on the earth, or someone by whom he may be made unclean in any way whatever;

6 ny olona izay mikasika izany dia haloto mandra-paharivan’ ny andro ka tsy hihinana amin’ ny zava-masìna, raha tsy mandro amin’ ny rano.

Any person touching any such unclean thing will be unclean till evening, and may not take of the holy food till his flesh has been bathed in water;

7 Ary rehefa milentika ny masoandro, dia hadio izy, ka vao izay no mahazo mihinana amin’ ny zava-masìna, satria fihinany izany.

And when the sun has gone down he will be clean; and after that he may take part in the holy food, because it is his bread.

8 Izay maty ho azy, na izay noviravirain-biby, dia tsy hohaniny, mba tsy hahaloto azy: Izaho no Jehovah.

That which comes to a natural death, or is attacked by beasts, he may not take as food, for it will make him unclean: I am the Lord.

9 Ary aoka hitandrina izay nasaiko tandremana izy, fandrao ho meloka noho izany izy ka ho fatin’ ny nanamavoany azy: Izaho Jehovah no manamasìna azy.

So then, let them keep what I have put into their care, for fear that sin may come on them because of it, so causing their death because they have made it common: I am the Lord, who make them holy.

10 Ary aza avela hisy olon-kafa hihinana zava-masìna; na izay mivahiny ao amin’ ny mpisorona, na izay mpikarama, dia samy tsy mahazo mihinana zava-masìna.

No outside person may take of the holy food, or one living as a guest in the priest's house, or a servant working for payment.

11 Fa raha misy olona novidin’ ny mpisorona, dia hahazo mihinana amin’ izany ihany izy; ary ny ompikeliny hahazo mihinana amin’ ny fihinan’ ny mpisorona koa.

But any person for whom the priest has given money, to make him his, may take of it with him; and those who come to birth in his house may take of his bread.

12 Ary raha misy zanakavavin’ ny mpisorona manambady olon-kafa, dia tsy hihinana amin’ ny fanatitra avy amin’ ny zava-masìna izy.

And if the daughter of a priest is married to an outside person she may not take of the holy things which are lifted up as offerings.

13 Fa raha misy zanakavavin’ ny mpisorona maty vady, na efa nisaorana, ka tsy manan-janaka, ary mody any an-tranon-drainy izy toy ny fony izy mbola kely, dia mahazo mihinana ny fihinan-drainy ihany izy; fa aoka tsy hisy olon-kafa hihinana izany.

But if a priest's daughter is a widow, or parted from her husband, and has no child, and has come back to her father's house as when she was a girl, she may take of her father's bread; but no outside person may do so.

14 Ary raha misy olona mihinana tsy nahy amin’ ny zava-masìna, dia honerany ny zava-masìna ka homeny ny mpisorona sady hampiany ho tonga avy fahenina:

And if a man takes the holy food in error, he will have to give the holy thing back to the priest, with the addition of a fifth part.

15 Ary aoka tsy hisy hametaveta ny zava-masin’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely, izay ateriny ho an’ i Jehovah,

And they may not make common the holy things which the children of Israel give to the Lord,

16 na hahatonga ota aman-keloka noho ny nihinanany ny zava-masiny; fa Izaho Jehovah no manamasìna azy.

So causing sin to come on them when they take their holy things for food: I am the Lord who make them holy.

17 Ary Jehovah niteny tamin’ i Mosesy ka nanao hoe:

And the Lord said to Moses,

18 Mitenena amin’ i Arona sy ny zanany ary ny zanak’ Isiraely rehetra hoe: Na iza na iza amin’ ny taranak’ Isiraely, na amin’ ny vahiny eo amin’ ny Isiraely, no manatitra ny fanatiny ho fanatitra hanalany voady na ho fanati-tsitrapony, izay hateriny ho an’ i Jehovah ho fanatitra dorana,

Say to Aaron and to his sons and to all the children of Israel, If any man of the children of Israel, or of another nation living in Israel, makes an offering, given because of an oath or freely given to the Lord for a burned offering;

19 dia lahy tsy misy kilema no hateriny, na omby izany, na zanak’ ondry, na osy, mba hankasitrahana anareo.

So that it may be pleasing to the Lord, let him give a male, without any mark, from among the oxen or the sheep or the goats.

20 Izay rehetra misy kilema dia tsy haterinareo; fa tsy hankasitrahana anareo izany.

But anything which has a mark you may not give; it will not make you pleasing to the Lord.

21 Ary raha misy manatitra fanati-pihavanana ho an’ i Jehovah, na ho fanatitra hanalany voady, na ho fanati-tsitrapo, na omby izany, na ondry, na osy, dia ny tsara izay tsy misy kilema na kely akory aza no hateriny mba hankasitrahana azy.

And whoever makes a peace-offering to the Lord, in payment of an oath or as a free offering, from the herd or the flock, if it is to be pleasing to the Lord, let it be free from any mark or damage.

22 Fa ny jamba na ny misy tapaka, na ny kilemaina, na ny ferena, na ny boka, na ny kongonina, dia izany no tsy haterinareo ho an’ i Jehovah, na hataonareo fanatitra amin’ ny afo eo ambonin’ ny alitara ho an’ i Jehovah.

Anything blind or broken or damaged or having any disease or any mark on it may not be offered to the Lord; you may not make an offering of it by fire on the altar to the Lord.

23 Na omby, na ondry, na osy, izay misy sampona, dia azonao haterina ho fanati-tsitrapo; fa raha atao fanatitra hanalam-boady, dia tsy hankasitrahana izy.

An ox or a lamb which has more or less than its natural parts, may be given as a free offering; but it will not be taken in payment of an oath.

24 Izay voaporitra, na voatoro, na voaombotra, na voadidy ho afaka ny vihiny, dia tsy azonareo aterina ho an’ i Jehovah; ary aza manao izany eo amin’ ny taninareo.

An animal which has its sex parts damaged or crushed or broken or cut, may not be offered to the Lord; such a thing may not be done anywhere in your land.

25 Ary raha misy entin’ olona hafa firenena aza izany zavatra izany, dia tsy azonareo haterina ho hanin’ Andriamanitrareo, satria efa simba izy ka misy kilema; tsy mba hankasitrahana anareo izany.

And from one who is not an Israelite you may not take any of these for an offering to the Lord; for they are unclean, there is a mark on them, and the Lord will not be pleased with them.

26 Ary Jehovah niteny tamin’ i Mosesy ka nanao hoe:

And the Lord said to Moses,

27 Raha misy omby, na ondry, na osy, vao teraka, dia hitoetra amin-dreniny hafitoana izy; fa rehefa hatramin’ ny andro fahavalo no ho miakatra, dia hankasitrahana izy, raha atao fanatitra atao amin’ ny afo ho an’ i Jehovah.

When an ox or a sheep or a goat is given birth, let it be with its mother for seven days; and after the eighth day it may be taken as an offering made by fire to the Lord.

28 Ary ny ombivavy, na ny ondrivavy, na ny osivavy, dia tsy hovonoinareo indray andro izy sy ny zanany.

A cow or a sheep may not be put to death with its young on the same day.

29 Ary raha mamono zavatra hatao fanati-pisaorana ho an’ i Jehovah ianareo, dia amin’ izay hankasitrahana anareo no hamonoanareo azy.

And when you make an offering of praise to the Lord, make it in a way which is pleasing to him.

30 Amin’ izany andro izany ihany no hihinanana azy, fa aza amelana ho tra-maraina: Izaho no Jehovah

Let it be used for food on the same day; do not keep any part of it till the morning: I am the Lord.

31 Ary tandremo ny didiko, ka araho izany: Izaho no Jehovah.

So then, keep my orders and do them: I am the Lord.

32 Ary aza manamavo ny anarako masìna; fa hohamasinina eo amin’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely Aho: Izaho Jehovah,

And do not make my holy name common; so that it may be kept holy by the children of Israel: I am the Lord who make you holy,

33 Izay nitondra anareo nivoaka avy tany amin’ ny tany Egypta mba ho Andriamanitrareo, no manamasìna anareo; Izaho no Jehovah.

Who took you out of the land of Egypt that I might be your God: I am the Lord.
