1 परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्‍नुभयो,
And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
2 “इस्राएलका मानिसहरूलाई यसो भन्, ‘म परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्‍वर हुँ ।
Speak to the sons of Israel, and say to them, I am Jehovah your God.
3 तिमीहरू पहिले बसोबास गर्ने मिश्रका मानिसहरूले त्यहाँ जे गर्थे ती तिमीहरूले नगर्नू । मैले तिमीहरूलाई लैजान लागेको देश अर्थात् कनानका मानिसहरूले त्यहाँ जे गर्थे ती तिमीहरूले नगर्नू । तिमीहरूले तिनीहरूका रीतिरिवाजहरू नपछ्‍याउनू ।
Ye shall not do after the doings of the land of Egypt, in which ye dwelt, and ye shall not do after the doings of the land of Canaan, where I bring you, nor shall ye walk in their statutes.
4 मेरो व्यवस्था तिमीहरूले पालन गर्नू, र मेरा आज्ञाहरू मान्‍नू, र तीअनुसार तिमीहरू हिँड्नू, किनभने म परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्‍वर हुँ ।
Ye shall do my ordinances, and ye shall keep my statutes, to walk therein. I am Jehovah your God.
5 यसैकारण तिमीहरूले मेरा आज्ञाहरू मान्‍नू र मेरा व्यवस्था पालन गर्नू । ती पालन गर्ने मानिस तीद्वारा नै बाँच्‍दछ । म परमप्रभु हुँ ।
Ye shall therefore keep my statutes, and my ordinances, which if a man does, he shall live in them. I am Jehovah.
6 आफ्नो नजिकको नातेदारसँग सुतेर कसैले पनि आफ्नो नग्‍नता नदेखाओस् । म परमप्रभु हुँ ।
None of you shall approach to any who are near of kin to him, to uncover nakedness. I am Jehovah.
7 आफ्नी आमासँग सुतेर आफ्ना बुबाको अनादार नगर्नू । त्यो तेरी आमा हो! तैँले त्यसलाई अनादर नगर् ।

Do not defile ye yourselves in any of these things. For in all these the nations are defiled which I cast out from before you,
25 तिनीहरूको भूमि अपवित्र भयो, र यसैकारण मैले तिनीहरूका पापको दण्ड दिएँ, र त्यस भूमिले त्यसका बासिन्दाहरूलाई उकेलेर निकालिदियो ।
and the land is defiled. Therefore I visit the iniquity of it upon it, and the land vomits out its inhabitants.
26 यसैकारण, तिमीहरूले मेरा आज्ञाहरू र विधिहरू पालन गर्नू, र इस्राएलका स्वदेशी वा तिमीहरूका बिचमा बसोबास गर्ने परदेशी जोकोहीले कुनै पनि यस्ता घृणास्‍पद काम नगर्नू ।
Ye therefore shall keep my statutes and my ordinances, and shall not do any of these abominations, neither the home-born, nor the stranger that sojourns among you,
27 तिमीहरूभन्दा अगि यस भूमिमा बसोबास गर्ने मानिसहरूले यस्तै दुष्‍ट काम गरे, र यसैकारण सारा देश नै अपवित्र भयो ।
(for all these abominations the men of the land have done, who were before you, and the land is defiled),
28 तिमीहरूका अपवित्रताका कारण तिमीहरूभन्दा अगिका मानिसहरूलाई झैँ त्यस भूमिले तिमीहरूलाई पनि उकेलेर बाहिर ननिकालोस् ।
that the land not vomit you out also, when ye defile it, as it vomited out the nation that was before you.
29 तिमीहरूमध्ये जो कोहीले यस्ता घृणास्पद कामहरू गर्दछन् भने, तिनीहरू आफ्ना मानिसहरूबाट बहिष्‍कृत हुने छन् ।
For whoever shall do any of these abominations, even the souls that do them shall be cut off from among their people.
30 तिमीहरूभन्दा अगि यहाँ अभ्यास हुने गरेका कुनै यस्ता घृणास्‍पद रीतिरिवाजहरूलाई तिमीहरूले अभ्यास नगरेर मेरो आज्ञा पालन गर्नू अनि यसरी तिमीहरूले यस्ता कामले आफैलाई अपवित्र बनाउने छैनौ । म परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्‍वर हुँ’ ।”
Therefore ye shall keep my charge, that ye not practice any of these abominable customs, which were practiced before you, and that ye not defile yourselves in it. I am Jehovah your God.
