Levítico 16
1 E falou o SENHOR a Moisés, depois que morreram os dois filhos de Arão, quando se chegaram diante do SENHOR, e morreram;
After the two sons of Aaron died because they burned incense to Yahweh [in a manner that was contrary to what Yahweh commanded], Yahweh spoke to Moses/me.
2 E o SENHOR disse a Moisés: Dize a Arão teu irmão, que não em todo tempo entre no santuário do véu dentro, diante do propiciatório que está sobre a arca, para que não morra: porque eu aparecerei na nuvem sobre o propiciatório.
He said to him/me, “Warn your [older] brother Aaron that he must not enter the Very Holy Place inside the curtain that is in the Sacred Tent whenever he wants to, because the cover of the sacred chest is there. That is the place where the priest (makes atonement for/requests me to forgive) sins. I am present in the cloud that is over the cover of the sacred chest. If Aaron goes in that room when it is not the proper time, he will die!
3 Com isto entrará Arão no santuário: com um bezerro por expiação, e um carneiro em holocausto.
“When Aaron enters the Sacred Tent area, he must bring a bull that [will be killed] to become an offering/sacrifice for sins, and a ram [to be killed] to be an offering that will be completely burned [on the altar].
4 A túnica santa de linho se vestirá, e sobre sua carne terá calções de linho, e se cingirá o cinto de linho; e com a mitra de linho se cobrirá: são as santas vestiduras: com elas, depois de lavar sua carne com água, se há de vestir.
Then he must bathe his whole body, and put on the linen underwear/undershorts and the linen gown. He must tie the linen sash/waistbands around his waist and wrap the turban around his head. Those are his sacred garments.
5 E da congregação dos filhos de Israel tomará dois machos de bode para expiação, e um carneiro para holocausto.
The Israeli people must then bring to him two male goats [to be killed] as an offering/sacrifice for sin, and a ram to be [killed and] burned completely [on the altar].
6 E fará achegar Arão o bezerro da expiação, que é seu, e fará a reconciliação por si e por sua casa.
“Aaron must offer the bull [to me] to be a sacrifice in order that (I will forgive his sins and the sins of his family/his sins and the sins of his family will be forgiven).
7 Depois tomará os dois machos de bode, e os apresentará diante do SENHOR à porta do tabernáculo do testemunho.
Then he must bring the two male goats to me at the entrance to the Sacred Tent.
8 E lançará sortes Arão sobre os dois machos de bode; uma sorte pelo SENHOR, e a outra sorte por Azazel.
He must (cast lots/throw down stones that have been marked) to determine which goat will be [sacrificed] to me, and which will be the goat that will be set free.
9 E fará achegar Arão o bode macho sobre o qual cair a sorte pelo SENHOR, e o oferecerá em expiação.
Aaron must bring to me the goat that was chosen to be sacrificed. It will be an offering for the people’s sins.
10 Mas o bode macho, sobre o qual cair a sorte por Azazel, o apresentará vivo diante do SENHOR, para fazer a reconciliação sobre ele, para enviá-lo a Azazel ao deserto.
Aaron must also bring to me the other goat, but it is not to be killed. It will be freed while it is still alive. As a result of Aaron sending it into the desert, the people’s sins will be forgiven.
11 E fará chegar Arão o bezerro que era seu para expiação, e fará a reconciliação por si e por sua casa, e degolará em expiação o bezerro que é seu.
“Then Aaron must bring the young bull to me, to be an offering/sacrifice for himself and for his family. He must slaughter that bull to be an offering for their sins, [and he must drain the blood into a basin].
12 Depois tomará o incensário cheio de brasas de fogo, do altar de diante do SENHOR, e seus punhos cheios do incenso aromático prensado, e o meterá do véu dentro:
Then he must take some burning coals from the [bronze] altar and put them in the incense burner. Then he must fill his hands with fragrant finely-ground incense. Then he must take the incense and the incense burner inside the curtain into the Very Holy Place [of the Sacred Tent].
13 E porá o incenso sobre o fogo diante do SENHOR, e a nuvem do incenso cobrirá o propiciatório que está sobre o testemunho, e não morrerá.
There he must put the incense on the burning coals, with the result that a cloud of burning incense will rise up over the lid of the sacred chest. If he obeys these instructions, he will not die [like Korah’s two sons did because of offering incense incorrectly] (OR, [because of being in God’s presence]).
14 Tomará logo do sangue do bezerro, e espargirá com seu dedo até o propiciatório ao lado oriental: até o propiciatório espargirá sete vezes daquele sangue com seu dedo.
Then he must dip his finger into [the basin] and sprinkle some blood on the lid of the sacred chest, and also sprinkle some blood seven times against the front of the chest.
15 Depois degolará em expiação o bode macho, que era do povo, e meterá o sangue dele do véu dentro; e fará de seu sangue como fez do sangue do bezerro, e espargirá sobre o propiciatório e diante do propiciatório:
[“Aaron must then go outside the Sacred Tent] and slaughter the goat to be an offering for the sins of the people. Then he must bring its blood into the Very Holy Place behind the curtain. There he must sprinkle [some of] that blood on the lid of the sacred chest and against the front of the chest, like he did with the bull’s blood.
16 E limpará o santuário, das imundícias dos filhos de Israel, e de suas rebeliões, e de todos os seus pecados: da mesma maneira fará também ao tabernáculo do testemunho, o qual reside entre eles em meio de suas imundícias.
By doing that, he will purify the Very Holy Place. And he must sprinkle more of the blood on the Sacred Tent, because the tent is in the midst of the camp of the Israeli people who have become unacceptable to me [because of their sins].
17 E nenhum homem estará no tabernáculo do testemunho quando ele entrar a fazer a reconciliação no santuário, até que ele saia, e haja feito a reconciliação por si, e por sua casa, e por toda a congregação de Israel.
When Aaron goes into the Very Holy Place [in the Sacred Tent] to purify it, no one else is permitted to enter [the other part of] the Sacred Tent. Only after Aaron has performed rituals to enable me to forgive him and his family, and all the Israeli people, is any priest permitted to enter the Sacred Tent.
18 E sairá ao altar que está diante do SENHOR, e o expiará; e tomará do sangue do bezerro, e do sangue do bode macho, e porá sobre as pontas do altar ao redor.
“Then Aaron must go outside the tent to purify my altar. He must do this by smearing some of the blood from the bull and some of the blood from the goat on each of the projections at the corners of the altar.
19 E espargirá sobre ele do sangue com seu dedo sete vezes, e o limpará, e o santificará das imundícias dos filhos de Israel.
Then Aaron must dip his finger into the [basin of] blood and sprinkle some of the blood over the altar seven times. By doing that, he will cleanse it from being unholy [because of the sins] of the Israeli people, and it will become holy again.
20 E quando houver acabado de expiar o santuário, e o tabernáculo do testemunho, e o altar, fará chegar o bode macho vivo:
“When Aaron has finished purifying the Very Holy Place [inside the Sacred Tent] and all of the Sacred Tent and the altar, he must bring the goat that was chosen to be set free.
21 E porá Arão ambas as mãos suas sobre a cabeça do bode macho vivo, e confessará sobre ele todas as iniquidades dos filhos de Israel, e todas suas rebeliões, e todos os seus pecados, pondo-os assim sobre a cabeça do bode macho, e o enviará ao deserto por meio de um homem destinado para isto.
He must put both of his hands on the head of the goat and confess all the sins [DOU] of the Israeli people. By doing that, he will put [the guilt of] their sins on the head of the goat. Then he must give the goat to a man who is chosen, and that man will send the goat out into the desert.
22 E aquele bode macho levará sobre si todas as iniquidades deles a terra inabitada: e deixará ir o bode macho pelo deserto.
[It is as though] the goat will carry away into the desert [the guilt for] the sins of all the people.
23 Depois virá Arão ao tabernáculo do testemunho, e se desnudará as vestimentas de linho, que havia vestido para entrar no santuário, e as porá ali.
“When Aaron approaches the Sacred Tent, he must take off the linen clothes that he wore when he [previously] entered the Very Holy Place, and he must leave those clothes there.
24 Lavará logo sua carne com água no lugar do santuário, e depois de se pôr suas roupas sairá, e fará seu holocausto, e o holocausto do povo, e fará a reconciliação por si e pelo povo.
Then he must bathe in a sacred place, put on his regular/ordinary clothes, and sacrifice the animals that will be burned completely on the altar for his own sins and for the sins of the Israeli people. By doing that he will enable me to forgive him and them.
25 E queimará a gordura da expiação sobre o altar.
He must also burn on the altar all the fat of the bull and the goat that were sacrificed.
26 E o que houver levado o bode macho a Azazel, lavará suas roupas, lavará também com água sua carne, e depois entrará no acampamento.
“The man who was chosen to send the other goat into the desert and free it there must afterwards wash his clothes and bathe. Then he may return to the camp.
27 E tirará fora do acampamento o bezerro do pecado, e o bode macho da culpa, o sangue dos quais foi metido para fazer a expiação no santuário; e queimarão no fogo suas peles, e suas carnes, e seu excremento.
The carcasses of the bull and the goat that were slaughtered to be an offering/sacrifice for the people’s sins, whose blood was taken inside the Very Holy Place to enable Yahweh to forgive the Israeli people, must be carried outside the camp and burned. The hides/skins of the animals, the inner organs, and the dung must also be burned.
28 E o que os queimar, lavará suas roupas, lavará também sua carne com água, e depois entrará no acampamento.
The man who burns those things must then wash his clothes and bathe before he returns to the camp.
29 E isto tereis por estatuto perpétuo: No mês sétimo, aos dez do mês, afligireis vossas almas, e nenhuma obra fareis, nem o natural nem o estrangeiro que peregrina entre vós:
“On (October/the month after the dry season ends), on the day that I have appointed, you all must (fast/abstain from eating food) and not do any work. This is a rule/law that will never end. It must be obeyed by you people who have been Israelis all your lives, and also by foreigners who are living among you.
30 Porque neste dia se vos reconciliará para limpar-vos; e sereis limpos de todos vossos pecados diante do SENHOR.
On that day, Aaron will perform rituals to enable me to forgive you all, and then I will cleanse/free you all from [the guilt of] all your sins and you will become acceptable to me.
31 Sábado de repouso é para vós, e afligireis vossas almas, por estatuto perpétuo.
That will be a day for you to rest and not do any work, like the Sabbath days, and you must (fast/abstain from eating food) all that day. That is a permanent command/law for you all to obey.
32 E fará a reconciliação o sacerdote que for ungido, e cuja mão houver sido cheia para ser sacerdote em lugar de seu pai; e se vestirá as vestimentas de linho, as vestiduras sagradas:
In future years, [after Aaron has died], this ritual/ceremony to enable me to forgive you all [DOU] will be performed by the Supreme Priest who is anointed [with olive oil] and appointed to serve instead of his ancestor Aaron. He must put on the sacred clothes made of linen
33 E expiará o santuário santo, e o tabernáculo do testemunho; expiará também o altar, e aos sacerdotes, e a todo o povo da congregação.
and offer sacrifices to purify the Very Holy Place, all of the Sacred Tent, the altar, the priests, and all the Israel people [like Aaron did].
34 E isto tereis por estatuto perpétuo, para expiar aos filhos de Israel de todos os seus pecados uma vez no ano. E Moisés o fez como o SENHOR lhe mandou.
This will be a permanent command/law for you to obey once every year, to enable me to forgive you Israeli people for the sins that you have committed.” Moses/I obeyed all those instructions/commands that Yahweh had given to him/me.
