लेवीहरू 11

1 परमप्रभु मोशा र हारूनसँग यसरी बोल्‍नुभयो,

And the LORD spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying to them,

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

Speak to the children of Israel, saying, These are the beasts which ye may eat among all the beasts that are on the earth.

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

Whatever parteth the hoof, and is clovenfooted, and cheweth the cud, among the beasts, that shall 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, or of them that divide the hoof: the camel, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he is unclean to you.

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

And the coney, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he is unclean to you.

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

And the hare, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he is unclean to you.

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

And the swine, though he divideth the hoof, and is clovenfooted, yet he cheweth not the cud; he is unclean 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; they are unclean to you.

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

These shall ye eat of all that are in the waters: whatever hath fins and scales in the waters, in the seas, and in the rivers, them shall 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 ।

And all that have not fins nor scales in the seas, and in the rivers, of all that move in the waters, and of any living creature which is in the waters, they shall be an abomination to you:

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

They shall be even an abomination to you; ye shall not eat of their flesh, but ye shall have their carcases in abomination.

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

Whatever hath no fins nor scales in the waters, that shall be an abomination to you.

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

And these are they which ye shall have in abomination among the fowls; they shall not be eaten, they are an abomination: the eagle, and the ossifrage, and the ospray,

14 चील, सबै प्रकारका बेसारो,

And the vulture, and the kite after his kind;

15 सबै प्रकारका काग,

Every raven after his kind;

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

And the owl, and the night hawk, and the cuckow, and the hawk after his kind,

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

And the little owl, and the cormorant, and the great owl,

18 राजहंस र धनेस, माछा खाने चील,

And the swan, and the pelican, and the gier eagle,

19 सारस, सबै प्रकारका बकुल्‍ला, फाप्रेचरो र चमेरो ।

And the stork, and the heron after her kind, and the lapwing, and the bat.

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

All fowls that creep, going upon all four, shall be an abomination to you.

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

Yet these may ye eat of every flying creeping thing that goeth upon all four, which have legs above their feet, to leap with upon the earth;

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

Even these of them ye may eat; the locust after its kind, and the bald locust after its kind, and the beetle after its kind, and the grasshopper after its kind.

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

But all other flying creeping things, which have four feet, shall be an abomination to you.

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

And for these ye shall be unclean: whoever 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 whoever beareth any 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 ।

The carcases of every beast which divideth the hoof, and is not clovenfooted, nor cheweth the cud, are unclean to you: every one that 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 whatever goeth upon its paws, among all manner of beasts that go on all four, those are unclean to you: whoever toucheth their carcase 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 the carcase of them shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening: they are unclean to you.

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

These also shall be unclean to you among the creeping things that creep upon the earth; the weasel, and the mouse, and the tortoise after its kind,

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

And the ferret, and the chameleon, and the lizard, and the snail, and the mole.

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

These are unclean to you among all that creep: whoever doth touch 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 upon whatever any of them, when they are dead, doth fall, it shall be unclean; whether it is any vessel of wood, or raiment, or skin, or sack, whatever vessel it is, in which any work is done, it must be put into water, and it shall be unclean until the evening; so it shall be cleansed.

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

And every earthen vessel, into which any of them falleth, whatever is in it shall be unclean; and ye shall break it.

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

Of all food which may be eaten, that on which such water cometh shall be unclean: and all drink that may be drunk in every 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 every thing on which any part of their carcase falleth shall be unclean; whether an oven, or ranges for pots, they shall be broken down: for they are unclean, and shall be unclean to you.

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

Nevertheless a fountain or pit, in which there is plenty of water, shall be clean: but that which toucheth their carcase shall be unclean.

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

And if any part of their carcase shall fall upon any sowing seed which is to be sown, it shall be clean.

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

But if any water shall be put upon the seed, and any part of their carcase shall fall on it, it shall be unclean to you.

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

And if any beast, of which ye may eat, shall die; he that toucheth its carcase 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 its carcase shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening: he also that beareth its carcase shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening.

41 जमिनमा घस्रने सबै प्राणी घृणित हुनुपर्छ । ती नखानू ।

And every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth shall be an abomination; 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 ।

Whatever goeth upon the belly, and whatever goeth upon all four, or whatever hath many feet among all creeping things that creep upon the earth, them ye shall not eat; for they are an abomination.

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

Ye shall not make yourselves abominable with any creeping thing that creepeth, neither shall ye make yourselves unclean with them, that ye should be defiled by them.

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 am the LORD your God: ye shall therefore sanctify yourselves, and ye shall be holy; for I am holy: neither shall ye defile yourselves with any manner of creeping thing that creepeth 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 am the LORD that bringeth you out of the land of Egypt, to be your God: ye shall therefore be holy, for I am holy.

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

This is the law of the beasts, and of the fowl, and of every living creature that moveth in the waters, and of every creature that creepeth upon the earth:

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

To make a difference between the unclean and the clean, and between the beast that may be eaten and the beast that may not be eaten.
