< Números 18 >
1 Então disse o Senhor a Aarão: Tu, e teus filhos, e a casa de teu pae comtigo, levareis sobre vós a iniquidade do sanctuario: e tu e teus filhos comtigo levareis sobre vós a iniquidade do vosso sacerdocio.
Yahweh said to Aaron, “You and your sons and the other members of your father’s family are the ones (who will be punished/whom I will punish) [if anything bad happens to the things] inside the Sacred Tent. But only you and your sons will be punished if the priests do something bad.
2 E tambem farás chegar comtigo a teus irmãos, a tribu de Levi, a tribu de teu pae, para que se ajuntem a ti, e te sirvam; mas tu e teus filhos comtigo estareis perante a tenda do testemunho.
Require that those who belong to your tribe, the tribe of Levi, must assist you and your sons while you perform your work at the Sacred Tent.
3 E elles farão a tua guarda, a guarda de toda a tenda: mas não se chegarão aos vasos do sanctuario, e ao altar, para que não morram, tanto elles como vós
But while they do that work, they must not go near the sacred items inside the tent or near the altar. If they do that, they will die, and you will die, too!
4 Mas se ajuntarão a ti, e farão a guarda da tenda da congregação em todo o ministerio da tenda; e o estranho não se chegará a vós
They may assist you in doing all the work to take care of the Sacred Tent, but no one else is permitted to come near the place where you are working.
5 Vós pois fareis a guarda do sanctuario e a guarda do altar; para que não haja outra vez furor sobre os filhos d'Israel.
“You are the ones who will do the sacred work inside the Sacred Tent and at the altar. If you obey these instructions, I will not become very angry with the Israeli people again.
6 E eu, eis-que eu tenho tomado vossos irmãos, os levitas, do meio dos filhos d'Israel: a vós são dados em dadiva pelo Senhor, para administrar o ministerio da tenda da congregação.
I myself have chosen the descendants of Levi from the other Israelis in order that they may be your special helpers. They are like a gift that I have given you to work at the Sacred Tent.
7 Mas tu e teus filhos comtigo guardareis o vosso sacerdocio em todo o negocio do altar, e no que estiver dentro do véu, isto administrareis: eu vos tenho dado o vosso sacerdocio em dadiva ministerial, e o estranho que se chegar morrerá.
But it is you and your sons, who are the priests, who must perform all the rituals concerning the altar and with what happens inside the Very Holy Place. I am giving to you this work of serving as priests. So anyone else who tries to do that work must be executed.”
8 Disse mais o Senhor a Aarão: E eu, eis-que te tenho dado a guarda das minhas offertas alçadas, com todas as coisas sanctas dos filhos d'Israel; por causa da uncção as tenho dado a ti e a teus filhos por estatuto perpetuo.
Yahweh also said to Aaron, “I myself have appointed you to take care of all the sacred offerings that the Israeli people bring to me. I have given all these sacred offerings to you and to your sons. You and your descendants will get a share of these offerings permanently.
9 Isto terás das coisas sanctissimas do fogo: todas as suas offertas com todas as suas offertas de manjares, e com todas as suas expiações do peccado, e com todas as suas expiações da culpa, que me restituirão; será coisa sanctissima para ti e para teus filhos
The parts of the offerings that are not completely burned on the altar belong to you. Those parts of the sacred offerings, including the offerings of grain, the offerings for sins and for the people to be forgiven for not giving me what they are required to give, are set apart, and are to be given to you and your sons.
10 No logar sanctissimo o comerás: todo o macho o comerá; sanctidade será para ti
You must eat those offerings in a sacred place, [near the Sacred Tent]. You and all of the other males [in your clan] may eat them, but you must consider those offerings to be holy/dedicated to me.
11 Tambem isto será teu: a offerta alçada dos seus dons com todas as offertas movidas dos filhos d'Israel; a ti, a teus filhos, e a tuas filhas comtigo, as tenho dado por estatuto perpetuo; todo o que estiver limpo na tua casa as comerá.
“The priests lift up high the sacred offerings while they are standing in front of the altar. All of those offerings that the Israelis offer to me belong to you and your sons and daughters. They will always be your share. All the members of your family who [have performed the rituals to cause them to] be acceptable to me are permitted to eat from these offerings.
12 Tudo o melhor do azeite, e tudo o melhor do mosto e do grão, as suas primicias que derem ao Senhor, as tenho dado a ti.
“am [also] giving to you the first food that people harvest each year and bring to me—the best [olive] oil and new wine and grain.
13 Os primeiros fructos de tudo que houver na terra, que trouxerem ao Senhor, serão teus: todo o que estiver limpo na tua casa os comerá.
All of the first crops that people harvest and bring to me belong to you. Anyone in your family who has [performed the ritual to] become acceptable to me is permitted to eat that food.
14 Toda a coisa consagrada em Israel será tua.
“Everything in Israel that is set apart to belong to me also belongs to you.
15 Tudo o que abrir a madre, de toda a carne que trouxerem ao Senhor, tanto d'homens como d'animaes, será teu; porém os primogenitos dos homens resgatarás; tambem os primogenitos dos animaes immundos resgatarás.
The firstborn males, both humans and domestic animals, that are offered to me, will be yours. But people must buy back their firstborn sons and the firstborn animals that may not be used for sacrifices.
16 Os que pois d'elles se houverem de resgatar resgatarás, da edade d'um mez, segundo a tua avaliação, por cinco siclos de dinheiro, segundo o siclo do sanctuario, que é de vinte geras.
They must buy them back when they are one month old. The price that they must pay [for each one] is five pieces of silver. They must weigh the silver on the scales that are in the Sacred Tent.
17 Mas o primogenito de vacca, ou primogenito d'ovelha, ou primogenito de cabra, não resgatarás, sanctos são: o seu sangue espargirás sobre o altar, e a sua gordura queimarás em offerta queimada de cheiro suave ao Senhor.
“But they are not permitted to buy back the firstborn cattle or sheep or goats. They are holy and have been set apart for me. [Slaughter them and] sprinkle their blood on the altar. Then completely burn the fat of those animals [on the altar] to be an offering to me. The smell as they burn will be very pleasing to me.
18 E a carne d'elles será tua: assim como o peito do movimento, e como o hombro direito, tua será.
The meat from those offerings will be yours, just like the breast and right thigh of animals that are presented to me to maintain fellowship with me as the priest lifts them up high in front of the altar are yours.
19 Todas as offertas alçadas das sanctidades, que os filhos de Israel offerecerem ao Senhor, tenho dado a ti, e a teus filhos e a tuas filhas comtigo, por estatuto perpetuo: concerto perpetuo de sal perante o Senhor é, para ti e para a tua semente comtigo.
Anything that the Israeli people present to me as holy/sacred gifts, I am giving to you. They are for you and your sons and daughters [to eat]. They will always be your share. This is an agreement that I am making with you, an agreement that will (last forever/never be changed). I am also making this agreement with your descendants.”
20 Disse tambem o Senhor a Aarão: Na sua terra possessão nenhuma terás, e no meio d'elles, nenhuma parte terás: eu sou a tua parte e a tua herança no meio dos filhos d'Israel.
Yahweh also said to Aaron, “You priests will not receive any of the land or the property like the [other] Israeli people will receive. I am what you will receive.
21 E eis-que aos filhos de Levi tenho dado todos os dizimos em Israel por herança, pelo seu ministerio que administra, o ministerio da tenda da congregação.
“Then the Israeli people bring to me a tenth of all [the crops and of their newborn animals], I will give that to you descendants of Levi. That will be your payment for the work you do at the Sacred Tent.
22 E nunca mais os filhos de Israel se chegarão á tenda da congregação, para que não levem sobre si o peccado, e morram.
The other Israelis must not go near that tent. If they go near it, [I will consider that their doing that is a sin, and] they will die for committing that sin.
23 Mas os levitas administrarão o ministerio da tenda da congregação, e elles levarão sobre si a sua iniquidade: pelas vossas gerações estatuto perpetuo será; e no meio dos filhos d'Israel nenhuma herança herdarão.
Only the descendants of Levi are permitted to work at the Sacred Tent, and they will be punished if anything bad happens to it. That is a law that will never be changed. You descendants of Levi will not receive any land among the other Israeli people,
24 Porque os dizimos dos filhos d'Israel, que offerecerem ao Senhor em offerta alçada, tenho dado por herança aos levitas: porquanto eu lhes disse: No meio dos filhos de Israel nenhuma herança herdarão.
because I will give you one tenth of all the [crops and animals] that the Israelis bring to be offerings to me. That is why I said that you will not receive any land like the other Israelis will receive.”
25 E fallou o Senhor a Moysés, dizendo:
Yahweh said to Moses/me,
26 Tambem fallarás aos levitas, e dir-lhes-has: Quando receberdes os dizimos dos filhos de Israel, que eu d'elles vos tenho dado em vossa herança, d'elles offerecereis uma offerta alçada ao Senhor; os dizimos dos dizimos.
“Tell this to the descendants of Levi: ‘When you receive one tenth of all [the crops and animals] from the Israeli people, you must give one tenth of all that to me to be a sacred offering.
27 E contar-se-vos-ha a vossa offerta alçada, como grão da eira, e como plenitude do lagar.
Just like the other Israelis give one tenth of the grain and wine that they produce,
28 Assim tambem offerecereis ao Senhor uma offerta alçada de todos os vossos dizimos, que receberdes dos filhos d'Israel, e d'elles dareis a offerta alçada do Senhor a Aarão, o sacerdote.
you must give to me one tenth of all that you receive from them. That will be your sacred offering to me. You must present it to Aaron.
29 De todos os vossos dons offerecereis toda a offerta alçada do Senhor: de tudo o melhor d'elles, a sua sancta parte.
Select the best parts of the things that are given to you to give them to me.’
30 Dir-lhes-has pois: Quando offerecerdes o melhor d'elles, como novidade da eira, e como novidade do lagar, se contará aos levitas.
“Also, tell this to the descendants of Levi: ‘When you present those best portions of grain and wine as your offering to me, I will consider that those gifts are as though they came from your own grain fields and vineyards.
31 E o comereis em todo o logar, vós e a vossa casa, porque vosso galardão é pelo vosso ministerio na tenda da congregação.
You descendants of Levi and your families are permitted to eat [the rest of] that food, and you may eat it wherever [you want to], because it is your payment for the work that you do at the Sacred Tent.
32 Pelo que não levareis sobre vós o peccado, quando d'elles offerecerdes o melhor: e não profanareis as coisas sanctas dos filhos de Israel, para que não morraes.
If you give to the priests the best portions of what you receive, you will not be punished [by me] for accepting one tenth of the gifts that the people bring to me. But you must consider those gifts to be sacred/holy. If you sin [by eating those things in ways that are contrary to these regulations that I have given to you], you will be executed.’”
