लेवीहरू 11

1 परमप्रभु मोशा र हारूनसँग यसरी बोल्‍नुभयो,

And Yahweh spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying unto them:

2 “इस्राएलका मानिसहरूलाई यसो भन्‍नू, ‘पृथ्‍वीमा भएका सबै पशुहरूमध्ये तिमीहरूले खान मिल्‍ने जीवित प्राणीहरू यी नै हुन् ।

Speak ye unto the sons of Israel saying, —These are the living things which ye may eat, of all the beasts which are upon the earth:

3 चिरिएको खुर भएको र उग्राएर चबाउने सबै पशु तिमीहरूले खान मिल्‍छ ।

Whatsoever parteth the hoof and is cloven-footed, and cheweth the cud among beasts, that, may ye eat.

4 तर, उग्राएर चबाउने वा चिरिएको खुर मात्र भएको पशुचाहिँ तिमीहरूले नखानू, जस्तै ऊँट, किनभने त्यसले उग्राएर चबाउँछ तर त्यसको खुर चिरिएको हुँदैन । यसकारण त्यो तिमीहरूका निम्ति अशुद्ध हो ।

Nevertheless, these, shall ye not eat, of them that chew the cud, and of them that part the hoof, —the camel, because though he, cheweth the cud, yet, the hoof, he parteth not, unclean, he is to you;

5 अनि शापन किनभने त्यसले उग्राएर चबाउँछ तर त्यसको खुर चिरिएको हुँदैन । त्यो तिमीहरूका निम्ति अशुद्ध हो ।

And, the coney, because, though he cheweth the cud, yet, the hoof, he parteth not, —unclean, he is to you;

6 अनि खरायो तिमीहरूका निम्ति अशुद्ध हो किनभने त्यसले उग्राएर चबाउँछ तर त्यसको खुर चिरिएको हुँदैन ।

And the hare, because though she cheweth the cud, yet the hoof, she parteth not, —unclean, she is to you;

7 अनि सुँगुरको खुर चिरिएको भए तापनि त्यसले उग्राएर चबाउँदैन । यसैकारण त्यो तिमीहरूका निम्ति अशुद्ध हो ।

And, the swine, because though he parteth the hoof, and is cloven-footed, yet, the cud, he cheweth not, —unclean, he is to you;

8 तिमीहरूले यी कुनै पशुको मासु नखानू, न त तिनीहरूको सिनु छुनू । यी तिमीहरूका निम्ति अशुद्ध हुन् ।

Of their flesh, shall ye not eat, and, their carcase, shall ye not touch, —unclean, they are to you.

9 पानीमा पाइने प्राणीहरूमा सागर वा नदीहरूमा पाइने पखेटा र कत्‍ला भएका सबै तिमीहरूले खान मिल्‍छ ।

these, may ye eat, of all that are in the waters, —all that have fins and scales in the waters, in the seas and in the rivers, them, may ye eat.

10 तर सागर वा नदीहरूका सबै जीवित प्राणीहरू र पानीमा हिँड्ने र पानीमा पाइने सबै जीवित प्राणीहरू जसका पखेटा र कत्‍ला हुँदैनन्, ती तिमीहरूले घृणा गर्नू ।

But, all that have not fins and scales, in the seas and in the rivers, of all that swarm in the waters, and of all the living souls that are in the waters, an abomination, they are unto you;

11 ती घृणित भएका हुनाले, तिमीहरूले तिनका मासु नखानू, र तिनका सिनुलाई पनि घृणा गर्नू ।

and an abomination, shall they remain to you, —of their flesh, ye shall not eat, and their carcases, shall ye abhor.

12 पानीमा पाइने प्राणी जसका पखेटा र कत्‍ला हुँदैनन्, ती तिमीहरूद्वारा घृणित होस् ।

Whatsoever hath not fins and scales in the waters, an abomination, it is unto you.

13 तिमीहरूले घृणा गर्नुपर्ने र खान नहुने पक्षीहरू यी हुन्ः गरुड, गिद्ध,

And, these, shall ye abhor of birds, they shall not be eaten, an abomination, they are, —the eagle, and the ossifrage, and the osprey;

14 चील, सबै प्रकारका बेसारो,

and the vulture, and the falcon, after its kind;

15 सबै प्रकारका काग,

every raven, after its kind;

16 सुतुरमुर्ग र हुचील, समुद्रीचरो, र सबै प्रकारका बाज ।

and the female ostrich, and the male ostrich, and the sea-gull, —and the hawk after its kind;

17 तिमीहरूले यी पक्षीहरूलाई पनि घृणा गर्नू, सानो र ठुलो लाटोकोसेरो, जलकाग,

and the pelican and the gannet, and the bittern;

18 राजहंस र धनेस, माछा खाने चील,

and the swan and the vomiting pelican and the little vulture;

19 सारस, सबै प्रकारका बकुल्‍ला, फाप्रेचरो र चमेरो ।

and the stork, and the parrot, after its kind, —and the mountain-cock and the bat.

20 चार खुट्‍टाले हिँड्ने पखेटा भएका सबै किराहरू तिमीहरूका निम्ति घृणित हुन् ।

Every creeping thing that flieth, that goeth on all-fours, an abomination, it is unto you.

21 तर उड्ने किराहरूमा चार खुट्‍टाले हिँड्ने र जमिनमा उफ्रनको निम्ति खुट्‍टामा जोर्नीहरू भएकाहरूचाहिँ तिमीहरूले खान मिल्छ ।

Nevertheless, these, may ye eat, of all creeping things that fly, that go on all-fours, —such as have legs above their feet, to leap therewith, upon the earth—

22 तिमीहरूले कुनै पनि प्रकारका सलह, खुइले-सलह, किथ्रो, वा फटेङ्ग्रो पनि खान मिल्छ ।

these of them, may ye eat: the swarming-locust after its kind, and the devouring locust after its kind, —and the chargol-locust after its kind, and the chagab-locust after its kind.

23 तर चार खुट्‍टा भएका सबै उड्ने किराहरूचाहिँ तिमीहरूद्वारा घृणित होस् ।

But every [other] creeping thing that flieth, which hath four feet, an abomination, it is unto you;

24 यदि तिमीहरूले यीमध्ये कुनैको सिनुलाई छोयौ भने तिमीहरू साँझसम्म अशुद्ध हुने छौ ।

and, for these, shall ye count yourselves unclean—whosoever toucheth the carcase of them shall be unclean until the evening;

25 जसले तीमध्ये कसैको सिनु बोक्‍छ, उसले आफ्ना लुगा धोओस् र साँझसम्मै त्यो अशुद्ध रहने छ ।

and whosoever beareth away aught of the carcase of them, shall wash his clothes and be unclean until the evening.

26 हरेक पशु जसको खुर पुरै चिरिएको छैन वा जसले उग्राएर चबाउँदैन, त्यो तिमीहरूका निम्ति अशुद्ध हुन्छ । ती छुने सबै अशुद्ध हुने छन् ।

As for every kind of beast which, though it parteth the hoof, yet is not cloven-footed nor cheweth the cud, unclean, they are unto you, —every one who toucheth them shall be unclean.

27 चार खुट्‍टाले हिँड्ने पशुहरूमध्ये आफ्ना पन्‍जाले हिँड्नेचाहिँ तिमीहरूका निम्ति अशुद्ध हुन्छन् । त्यस्तो सिनु छुने जो कोही साँझसम्म अशुद्ध हुने छ ।

And, all that go upon their paws, among all the living things that go on all-fours, unclean, they are unto you, —whoso toucheth the carcase of them, shall be unclean until the evening.

28 त्यस्तो सिनु बोक्‍ने जो कोहीले आफ्ना लुगाहरू धोओस् र साँझसम्म त्यो अशुद्ध रहोस् । यी पशुहरू तिमीहरूका निम्ति अशुद्ध हुने छन् ।

And, he that beareth away the carcase of them shall wash his clothes, and shall be unclean until the evening, —unclean, they are unto you.

29 जमिनमा घस्रने पशुहरूमा यी प्राणीहरू तिमीहरूका निम्ति अशुद्ध हुने छन्ः न्याउरीमूसो, मूसो, सबै थरीका ठुलो छेपारो,

And, these, unto you, shall be unclean, among the creeping things that creep upon the earth, —the weasel and the mouse, and the lizard after its kind;

30 गोहोरो, सालक, भालेमुङ्‍रो, बालुवाको छेपारो, र रङ्ग बदल्‍ने छेपारो ।

and the ferret and the chameleon and the wall-lizard, —and the winding lizard, and the mole.

31 घस्रने पशुहरूमा यी सबै तिमीहरूका निम्ति अशुद्ध हुने छन् । ती मरेपछि ती छुने सबै साँझसम्म अशुद्ध हुने छन् ।

These, are they which are unclean to you among all that creep, —whosoever toucheth them when they are dead shall be unclean until the evening;

32 तिनीहरूमध्ये कोही मरेर केही कुरामाथि पर्‍यो भने, त्यो वस्तु काठ, कपडा, छाला, वा भाङ्‍रो, जे सुकैबाट बनेको भए तापनि त्यो अशुद्ध हुने छ । त्यो जे भए तापनि र त्यो जे सुकैको निम्ति प्रयोग हुने भए तापनि, त्यो पानीमा डुबाइनुपर्छ, र त्यो साँझसम्म अशुद्ध रहने छ । त्यसपछि त्यो शुद्ध हुने छ ।

and, everything whereon any of them shall fall when they are dead shall be unclean—of any articles of wood, or cloth, or skin, or sackcloth, any article wherewith any work is done, —shall be put in water and shall be unclean until the evening, and then be clean,

33 यदि कुनै माटोको भाँडोमा कुनै अशुद्ध प्राणी पर्‍यो भने, त्यस भाँडोमा भएको जेसुकै अशुद्ध हुने छ, र तिमीहरूले त्यो भाँडोलाई नष्‍ट गर्नू ।

And, as for any earthen vessel whereinto any of them may fall, everything therein shall be unclean, and, the vessel itself, shall ye break in pieces.

34 कुनै खान मिल्‍ने कुरामा त्यस्तो भाँडोको पानी पर्‍यो भने त्यो अशुद्ध हुन्छ । त्यस भाँडोको कुनै पनि पिउने तरल पदार्थ अशुद्ध हुन्छ ।

Of all the food that may be eaten, that whereon shall come water, shall be unclean, —and, all drink which might be drunk in any [such] vessel, shall be unclean.

35 जुन कुरामाथि तिनीहरूको सिनु खस्‍छ, त्यो वस्तु भट्‍टी वा सानो चुलो जे भए तापनि त्यसलाई टुक्रा-टुक्रा गरिनुपर्छ । ती अशुद्ध हुन् र तिमीहरूका निम्ति ती अशुद्ध रहून् ।

And, everything whereon shall fall any part of the carcase of them shall be unclean, oven or fire-range, it shall be destroyed, unclean, they are, —and, unclean, Shall they remain to you.

36 जरुवा वा दहको पानी शुद्ध रहने छ; तर तिनीहरूको सिनु छुने सबै अशुद्ध हुन्छन् ।

Notwithstanding, a fountain or cistern wherein is a gathering of waters shall be clean, —but, he that toucheth the carcase of them shall be unclean.

37 यदि तिनीहरूको सिनुको कुनै भाग छरिने बिउमा पर्‍यो भने, ती बिउहरू भने शुद्ध नै रहन्छन् ।

And when any part of the carcase of them shall fall upon seed for sowing, which is to be sown, the same is, clean.

38 तर यदि बिउमा पानी राखिएको भए, र तिनीहरूको सिनुको कुनै भाग तीमाथि पर्‍यो भने, ती तिमीहरूका निम्ति अशुद्ध हुने छन् ।

But, when water shall be put upon seed, and there shall fall thereon any part of the carcase of them, unclean, it is to you.

39 तिमीहरूले खाने गरेका कुनै पशु मर्‍यो भने, त्यसको सिनु छुने कोही पनि साँझसम्म अशुद्ध हुने छ ।

And, when any of the beasts which are yours for food shall die, he that toucheth the carcase of it shall be unclean until the evening.

40 त्यस्तो सिनु खाने जो कोहीले आफ्ना लुगाहरू धुनुपर्छ र त्यो साँझसम्म अशुद्ध रहने छ । त्यस्तो सिनुबाट केही लिने जो कोहीले आफ्ना लुगाहरू धोओस् र त्यो साँझसम्म अशुद्ध रहने छ ।

And, he that eateth of the carcase of it, shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening, —he also that carrieth away the carcase thereof shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening.

41 जमिनमा घस्रने सबै प्राणी घृणित हुनुपर्छ । ती नखानू ।

And, any creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth, an abomination, it is—it shall not be eaten.

42 आफ्नो पेटले हिँड्ने, वा सबै चार खुट्‍टा प्रयोग गरी हिँड्ने, वा धेरै खुट्‍टा भएका जुनसुकै जमिनमा घस्रेर हिँड्ने प्राणी तिमीहरूले नखानू, किनकि ती घृणित हुनुपर्छ ।

Everything that goeth upon the belly, and everything that goeth upon all-fours, even to everything having many feet, as regardeth any creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth, ye shall not eat them for, an abomination, they are.

43 कुनै पनि घस्रने प्राणीबाट तिमीहरू अशुद्ध नहुनू; आफूलाई अपवित्र बनाउने गरी तीबाट तिमीहरू अशुद्ध नहुनू ।

Do not make your persons abominable, with any creeping thing that creepeth, —neither shall ye make yourselves unclean with them, that ye should become unclean thereby.

44 किनभने म परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्‍वर हुँ । म पवित्र भएको कारण तिमीहरूले आफैलाई पवित्र राख्‍नुपर्छ, र यसैकारण तिमीहरू पवित्र होओ । जमिनमा घस्रने कुनै पनि प्राणीबाट तिमीहरूले आफैलाई अपवित्र नबनाओ ।

For, I—Yahweh, am your God, therefore shall ye hallow yourselves and remain holy; for, holy, am, I,—therefore shall ye not make your persons unclean, with any creeping thing that crawleth upon the earth;

45 किनभने तिमीहरूका परमेश्‍वर हुनलाई तिमीहरूलाई मिश्र देशबाट बाहिर ल्याउने परमप्रभु म नै हुँ । यसैकारण म पवित्र भएको हुनाले तिमीहरू पवित्र होओ ।

for, I—Yahweh, am he that brought you up out of the land of Egypt, that I might become your God, —therefore shall ye be holy, for, holy, am, I.

46 सबै पशु, पक्षी, पानीमा चलहल गर्ने सबै जीवित प्राणी, र जमिनमा घस्रने सबै प्राणीसम्बन्धी विधि यी नै हुन्,

This, is the law of beast and of bird, and of every living soul that moveth in the waters, —and as to every soul that creepeth upon the earth:

47 जसका बिचमा अशुद्ध र शुद्ध, र खान मिल्‍ने र नमिल्‍ने प्राणीहरू भनेर छुट्ट्‍याउन जरुरी छ’ ।”

That ye may make a difference—between the unclean and the clean, —and between the living thing that may be eaten, and the living thing which may not be eaten.
