लेवीहरू 21
1 परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्नुभयो, “पुजारीहरू अर्थात् हारूनका छोराहरूलाई यसो भन्, ‘आफ्ना मानिसहरूका बिचमा मर्नेहरूका निम्ति तिमीहरूमध्ये कोहीले पनि आफूलाई अशुद्ध नबनाउनू,
And Jehovah said to Moses, Speak to the priests, the sons of Aaron, and say to them, There shall none defile himself for the dead among his people,
2 तर त्यसका नजिकका नातेदारहरू अर्थात् त्यसकी आमा, त्यसको बुबा, छोरा, त्यसकी छोरी, त्यसको दाजु वा भाइ,
except for his kin, who is near to him: for his mother, and for his father, and for his son, and for his daughter, and for his brother.
3 वा त्यसमा आश्रित त्यसकी कन्या दिदी वा बहिनी जसको पति छैन, यी सबैका निम्ति त्यसले आफैलाई अशुद्ध बनाउन सक्छ ।
And for his sister a virgin, who is near to him, who has had no husband, for her he may defile himself.
4 तर त्यसले आफ्ना अरू नातेदारहरूका निम्ति आफैलाई अशुद्ध नबनाओस् र आफैलाई अपवित्र नबनाओस् ।
He shall not defile himself, who is a chief man among his people, to profane himself.
5 पुजारीहरूले आफ्नो शिर नखौरून् वा तिनीहरूका दाह्रीका कुना-कुना नकाटून्, न त तिनीहरूले आफ्ना शरीरहरू काटून् ।
They shall not make baldness upon their head, neither shall they shave off the corner of their beard, nor make any cuttings in their flesh.
6 तिनीहरू आफ्ना परमेश्वरका निम्ति पवित्र रहून्, र तिनीहरूका परमेश्वरका नाउँको अपमान नगरून्, किनभने पुजारीहरूले परमप्रभुका भोजनको बलिदान अर्थात् तिनीहरूका परमेश्वरको भोजन अर्पण गर्दछन् । यसैकारण पुजारीहरू पवित्र रहून् ।
They shall be holy to their God, and not profane the name of their God. For they offer the offerings of Jehovah made by fire, the bread of their God. Therefore they shall be holy.
7 तिनीहरू आफ्ना परमेश्वरका निम्ति अलग गरिएका हुनाले तिनीहरूले त्यस्ती स्त्रीलाई विवाह नगरून् जो एउटी वेश्या हो र जो अपवित्र छे, र तिनीहरूले आफ्नो पतिबाट विच्छेद भएकी स्त्रीलाई विवाह नगरून् ।
They shall not take a woman who is a harlot, or profane, neither shall they take a woman put away from her husband, for he is holy to his God.
8 तैँले त्यसलाई अलग राख्नू, किनभने परमप्रभुलाई रोटी चढाउने त्यो नै हो । त्यो तेरो निम्ति पवित्र हुनुपर्छ, किनभने, तँलाई पवित्र तुल्याउने म परमप्रभु पवित्र छु ।
Thou shall sanctify him therefore, for he offers the bread of thy God. He shall be holy to thee, for I Jehovah, who sanctify you, am holy.
9 पुजारीकी छोरी जो वेश्या भएर आफैलाई अपवित्र बनाउछे, त्यसले आफ्नो बुबाको अपमान गर्छे । त्यो जलाइयोस् ।
And the daughter of any priest, if she profanes herself by playing the harlot, she profanes her father. She shall be burnt with fire.
10 आफ्ना दाजुभाइहरूका बिचमा प्रधान पुजारी भएको मानिस जसको शिरमा अभिषेकको तेल खन्याइएको छ, र प्रधान पुजारीको विशेष पोशाक लगाउनको निम्ति अर्पण गरी पवित्र गरिएको छ, त्यसले आफ्नो केश खुला नछोडोस् वा आफ्ना लुगाहरू नच्यातोस् ।
And he who is the high priest among his brothers, upon whose head the anointing oil is poured, and who is consecrated to put on the garments, shall not let the hair of his head go loose, nor tear his clothes,
11 आफ्नो बुबा वा आफ्नी आमा जो भए तापनि लाश भएको ठाउँमा त्यो नजाओस् र आफैलाई अपवित्र नबनाओस् ।
neither shall he go in to any dead body, nor defile himself for his father, or for his mother,
12 त्यो प्रधान पुजारी पवित्र स्थानबाट बाहिर ननिस्कोस् र त्यसले आफ्नो परमेश्वरको पवित्र स्थानलाई अशुद्ध नबनाओस्, किनभने त्यो आफ्नो परमेश्वरको अभिषेक गर्ने तेलद्वारा प्रधान पुजारीको रूपमा अर्पण गरिएको छ । म परमप्रभु हुँ ।
neither shall he go out of the sanctuary, nor profane the sanctuary of his God, for the crown of the anointing oil of his God is upon him. I am Jehovah.
13 प्रधान पुजारीले आफ्नी पत्नीको रूपमा कन्या केटी बिहे गरोस् ।
And he shall take a wife in her virginity.
14 त्यसले विधवा, विच्छेद भएकी स्त्री, वा वेश्या बिहे नगरोस् । यस्ता स्त्रीहरूलाई त्यसले बिहे नगरोस् । त्यसले आफ्नै मानिसहरूबाट एउटा कन्या केटी नै बिहे गरोस्,
A widow, or one divorced, or a profane woman, a harlot, these he shall not take, but he shall take to wife a virgin of his own people.
15 ताकि त्यसले आफ्ना मानिसहरूका बिचमा आफ्ना छोराछोरीहरूलाई अशुद्ध नबनाओस्, किनभने त्यसलाई पवित्र बनाउने परमप्रभु म नै हुँ’ ।”
And he shall not profane his seed among his people, for I am Jehovah who sanctifies him.
16 परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्नुभयो,
And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
17 “हारूनलाई यसो भन्, ‘तेरा सारा वंशहरूभित्र तेरा उत्तराधिकारीहरूमा कुनै शारीरिक खोट छ भने, त्यसले आफ्नो परमेश्वरलाई भोजन अर्पण गर्न नजिक नआओस् ।
Speak to Aaron, saying, Whoever he is of thy seed throughout their generations who has a blemish, let him not approach to offer the bread of his God.
18 शारीरिक खोट भएको मानिस परमप्रभुको नजिक नआओस्, जस्तै दृष्टिविहीन वा हिँड्न नसक्ने मानिस, विरूपित वा आकार विकृत भएको मानिस,
For whatever man he is who has a blemish, he shall not approach: not a blind man, or a lame man, or he who has a flat nose, or anything superfluous,
19 हात वा खुट्टा बाँङ्गिएको मानिस,
or a man who is broken-footed, or broken-handed,
20 पछाडि ढाडमा मासुको डल्ला पलाएको मानिस, वा धेरै पातलो वा होचो मानिस, वा आँखामा खोट भएको मानिस, वा रोग लागेको, घाउ भएको, चर्मरोग लागेको, वा अन्डाकोष पिसिएको मानिस ।
or crook-backed, or a dwarf, or who has a blemish in his eye, or is scurvy, or scabbed, or has his testicles broken.
21 पुजारी हारूनका उत्तराधिकारीहरूका बिचबाट शारीरिक खोट भएको कोही मानिस पनि परमप्रभुको निम्ति होमबलि अर्पण गर्नलाई नजिक नआओस् । शारीरिक खोट भएको मानिस आफ्नो परमप्रभुको रोटी अर्पण गर्न नजिक नआओस् ।
No man of the seed of Aaron the priest, who has a blemish, shall come near to offer the offerings of Jehovah made by fire; he has a blemish, he shall not come near to offer the bread of his God.
22 परमेश्वरको अति पवित्र वा पवित्र भोजनबाट त्यसले खान मिल्छ ।
He shall eat the bread of his God, both of the most holy, and of the holy,
23 तर, त्यो पर्दाभित्र प्रवेश नगरोस्, न त वेदीको नजिक आओस्, किनभने त्यसमा शारीरिक खोट छ, र त्यसले मेरो पवित्र स्थानलाई अशुद्ध नबनाओस्, किनभने तिनीहरूलाई पवित्र बनाउने परमप्रभु मै हुँ’ ।”
only he shall not go in to the veil, nor come near to the altar, because he has a blemish, that he not profane my sanctuaries, for I am Jehovah who sanctifies them.
24 यसैले मोशाले यी वचनहरू हारून, तिनका छोराहरू र इस्राएलका सारा मानिसहरूलाई सुनाए ।
So Moses spoke to Aaron, and to his sons, and to all the sons of Israel.
