लेवीहरू 22

1 परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्‍नुभयो,

The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,

2 “हारून र त्यसका छोराहरूलाई भन् कि इस्राएलका मानिसहरूले मेरो निम्ति अलग गरेका पवित्र कुराहरूबाट तिनीहरू टाढा रहून् । तिनीहरूले मेरो पवित्र नामलाई अपवित्र नबनाऊन् । म परमप्रभु हुँ ।

“Tell Aaron and his sons to separate themselves from the holy things of the children of Israel, which they make holy to me, and that they not profane my holy name. I am the LORD.

3 तिनीहरूलाई भन्, ‘तिमीहरूका सारा वंशहरूभित्र तिमीहरूका कुनै उत्तराधिकारीहरूमध्ये कोही अशुद्ध भएको बेला परमप्रभुका निम्ति इस्राएलका मानिसहरूले अलग गरेका पवित्र कुराहरूको नजिक गयो भने, त्यो मेरो नजिकबाट बहिष्‍कृत होस् । म परमप्रभु हुँ ।

“Tell them, ‘If anyone of all your offspring throughout your generations approaches the holy things which the children of Israel make holy to the LORD, having his uncleanness on him, that soul shall be cut off from before me. I am the LORD.

4 हारूनका उत्तराधिकारीहरूमध्ये जसलाई छालाको सरुवा रोग लागेको छ, वा जसको शरीरबाट कुनै सङ्क्रामक कुरा बगिरहेको छ भने, त्यो शुद्ध नभएसम्म त्यसले परमप्रभुकहाँ अर्पण गरिएको बलिदानबाट केही पनि खानुहुँदैन । मरेको मानिस, वा वीर्यपात भइरहेको मानिसजस्तो अशुद्ध कुरालाई छुने,

“‘Whoever of the offspring of Aaron is a leper or has a discharge shall not eat of the holy things until he is clean. Whoever touches anything that is unclean by the dead, or a man who has a seminal emission,

5 वा अशुद्ध बनाउने घस्रने पशु, वा अशुद्ध बनाउने कुनै मानिसलाई छुने, त्यो जस्तो किसिमको अशुद्धता भए तापनि,

or whoever touches any creeping thing by which he may be made unclean, or a man from whom he may become unclean, whatever uncleanness he has—

6 र कुनै अशुद्ध कुरालाई छुने पुजारी साँझसम्म अशुद्ध हुन्छ । त्यसले आफ्नो शरीर पानीले ननुहाएसम्म कुनै पवित्र कुरा नखाओस् ।

the person that touches any such shall be unclean until the evening, and shall not eat of the holy things unless he bathes his body in water.

7 घाम अस्ताएपछि त्यो शुद्ध हुने छ । घाम अस्ताएपछि त्यसले पवित्र कुराहरूबाट खान मिल्छ, किनभने त्यो त्यसकै भोजन हो ।

When the sun is down, he shall be clean; and afterward he shall eat of the holy things, because it is his bread.

8 मरेको वा वन पशुद्वारा मारिएको कुनै कुरा त्यसले नखाओस् । त्यसबाट त्यो अशुद्ध हुन्छ । म परमप्रभु हुँ ।

He shall not eat that which dies of itself or is torn by animals, defiling himself by it. I am the LORD.

9 पुजारीहरूले मेरा निर्देशनहरू पालन गरून्, नत्रता तिनीहरू पापको दोषी हुने छन् र मलाई अपवित्र तुल्याएको कारण तिनीहरू मर्न सक्छन् । तिनीहरूलाई पवित्र बनाउने परमप्रभु म नै हुँ ।

“‘They shall therefore follow my commandment, lest they bear sin for it and die in it, if they profane it. I am the LORD who sanctifies them.

10 पुजारीको परिवारमा कुनै बाहिरको मान्छे, पुजारीका पाहुनाहरू वा त्यसका ज्यालामा काम गर्ने नोकरहरू कसैले पनि पवित्र कुरा नखाऊन् ।

“‘No stranger shall eat of the holy thing: a foreigner living with the priests, or a hired servant, shall not eat of the holy thing.

11 तर पुजारीले आफ्नै पैसाले किनेको दासले परमप्रभुका निम्ति अलग गरिएका कुराहरूबाट खान सक्छ । पुजारीका परिवारका सदस्यहरू र त्यसको घरमा जन्मेका दासहरूले पनि त्योसँगै ती कुराहरूबाट खान सक्‍ने छन् ।

But if a priest buys a slave, purchased by his money, he shall eat of it; and those who are born in his house shall eat of his bread.

12 यदि पुजारीकी छोरीले पुजारीसँग बिहे नगरेर कोही अरूसँग बिहे गर्‍यो भने त्यसले अर्पण गरिएका पवित्र बलिदानहरूबाट नखाओस् ।

If a priest’s daughter is married to an outsider, she shall not eat of the heave offering of the holy things.

13 तर पुजारीकी छोरी विधवा, वा विच्‍छेद भएकी स्‍त्री हो, र त्यसको बालबच्‍चा छैन, र त्यो आफ्नो जवानीमा झैँ आफ्नै बुबाको घरमा बसोबास गर्न फर्की भने, त्यसले आफ्नो बुबाको भोजनबाट खान सक्छे । तर पुजारीको परिवारको सदस्य नभएको कसैले पनि पुजारीको भोजनबाट नखाओस् ।

But if a priest’s daughter is a widow, or divorced, and has no child, and has returned to her father’s house as in her youth, she may eat of her father’s bread; but no stranger shall eat any of it.

14 यदि कुनै मानिसले थाहा नपाई पवित्र भोजनबाट खायो भने, त्यसले त्यसको निम्ति पुजारीलाई दाम तिरोस्; त्यसले त्यसमा पाँचौँ भाग थपेर पुजारीलाई फिर्ता गरोस् ।

“‘If a man eats something holy unwittingly, then he shall add the fifth part of its value to it, and shall give the holy thing to the priest.

15 डोलाएर परमप्रभुलाई अर्पण गरिएका पवित्र कुराहरूलाई इस्राएलका मानिसहरूले अपवित्र नगरून्,

The priests shall not profane the holy things of the children of Israel, which they offer to the LORD,

16 नत्रता तिनीहरूले पाप बोक्‍ने छन् र पवित्र भोजन खाएको कारण तिनीहरू दोषी हुने छन्, किनभने तिनीहरूलाई पवित्र बनाउने परमप्रभु म नै हुँ’ ।”

and so cause them to bear the iniquity that brings guilt when they eat their holy things; for I am the LORD who sanctifies them.’”

17 परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्‍नुभयो,

The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,

18 “हारून र त्यसका छोराहरू, र इस्राएलका सारा मानिसहरूलाई यसो भन्, ‘कुनै इस्राएली, वा इस्राएलमा बसोबास गर्ने परदेशीले बलिदान अर्पण गर्दा चाहे त्यो कुनै भाकल पुरा गर्न होस्, वा त्यो स्वेच्‍छा भेटी होस्, वा तिनीहरूले परमप्रभुलाई होमबलि अर्पण गर्दा,

“Speak to Aaron, and to his sons, and to all the children of Israel, and say to them, ‘Whoever is of the house of Israel, or of the foreigners in Israel, who offers his offering, whether it is any of their vows or any of their free will offerings, which they offer to the LORD for a burnt offering:

19 तिनीहरूले गाई-गोरू, भेडा, वा बाख्राहरूमध्ये निष्‍खोट भाले अर्पण गरोस्, अनि त्यो स्वीकारिने छ ।

that you may be accepted, you shall offer a male without defect, of the bulls, of the sheep, or of the goats.

20 तर खोट भएको कुनै कुरा पनि अर्पण नगर्नू । म त्यो तिमीहरूबाट स्वीकार्ने छैनँ ।

But you shall not offer whatever has a defect, for it shall not be acceptable for you.

21 कसैले आफ्नो भाकल पुरा गर्न, वा स्वेच्‍छा भेटीस्वरूप बथान वा बगालबाट परमप्रभुको निम्ति मेलबलि चढाउँछ भने, त्यो निष्‍खोट होस्, अनि त्यो स्वीकारिने छ । त्यो पशुमा कुनै पनि खोट हुनुहुँदैन ।

Whoever offers a sacrifice of peace offerings to the LORD to accomplish a vow, or for a free will offering of the herd or of the flock, it shall be perfect to be accepted. It shall have no defect.

22 अन्धा, चोट भएका, अङ्गभङ्ग भएका, मूसा वा पाकेको घाउ भएका, वा चिलाउने रोग भएका पशु तिमीहरूले अर्पण नगर्नू । तिमीहरूले परमप्रभुको निम्ति वेदीमा होमबलिद्वारा यी अर्पण नगर्नू ।

You shall not offer what is blind, is injured, is maimed, has a wart, is festering, or has a running sore to the LORD, nor make an offering by fire of them on the altar to the LORD.

23 अङ्गभङ्ग भएको वा सानो साँढे वा भेडाचाहिँ तिमीहरूले स्वेच्‍छा भेटीस्वरूप अर्पण गर्न सक्छौ, तर भाकलको निम्ति त्यसको भेटी ग्रहण हुने छैन ।

Either a bull or a lamb that has any deformity or lacking in his parts, that you may offer for a free will offering; but for a vow it shall not be accepted.

24 चोट लागेका, कुच्‍च्याइएका, चिरिएका, वा काटिएका अण्डकोष भएका पशु परमप्रभुलाई अर्पण नगर्नू । तिमीहरूको देशैभरि त्यस्तो नगर्नू ।

You must not offer to the LORD that which has its testicles bruised, crushed, broken, or cut. You must not do this in your land.

25 परदेशीको हातबाट तिमीहरूका परमेश्‍वरको भोजन अर्पण नगर्नू । अङ्गभङ्ग भएका वा खोट भएका पशुहरू, तिमीहरूका निम्ति ग्रहण हुने छैनन्’ ।”

You must not offer any of these as the bread of your God from the hand of a foreigner, because their corruption is in them. There is a defect in them. They shall not be accepted for you.’”

26 परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्‍नुभयो,

The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,

27 “बाछा वा भेडा वा बाख्रा जन्मिँदा त्यो त्यसको माउसँग सात दिन रहोस् । आठौँ दिनबाट परमप्रभुको निम्ति होमबलि अर्पण गर्नलाई त्यो स्वीकारिने छ ।

“When a bull, a sheep, or a goat is born, it shall remain seven days with its mother. From the eighth day on it shall be accepted for the offering of an offering made by fire to the LORD.

28 गाई वा भेडीलाई एकै दिनमा त्यसको बच्‍चासमेत नमार्नू ।

Whether it is a cow or ewe, you shall not kill it and its young both in one day.

29 तिमीहरूले परमप्रभुलाई धन्यवादको बलि अर्पण गर्दा तिमीहरूले त्यो स्वीकारयोग्‍य तरिकामा बलि गर्नू ।

“When you sacrifice a sacrifice of thanksgiving to the LORD, you shall sacrifice it so that you may be accepted.

30 त्यसलाई त्यो बलि गरिएकै दिनमा खानू । अर्को बिहानीसम्म त्यसको केही भाग पनि नछोड्‍नू । म परमप्रभु हुँ ।

It shall be eaten on the same day; you shall leave none of it until the morning. I am the LORD.

31 यसैकारण तिमीहरूले मेरा आज्ञा मान्‍नू र तीअनुसार हिँड्नू । म परमप्रभु हुँ ।

“Therefore you shall keep my commandments, and do them. I am the LORD.

32 तिमीहरूले मेरो पवित्र नाउँलाई अपवित्र नतुल्याउनू । इस्राएलका मानिसहरूले म पवित्र छु भन्‍ने कुरा स्वीकारून् । तिमीहरूलाई पवित्र बनाउने परमप्रभु म नै हुँ,

You shall not profane my holy name, but I will be made holy among the children of Israel. I am the LORD who makes you holy,

33 र मैले नै तिमीहरूका परमेश्‍वर हुनको निम्ति तिमीहरूलाई मिश्र देशबाट बाहिर ल्याएँ । म परमप्रभु हुँ ।

who brought you out of the land of Egypt, to be your God. I am the LORD.”
