Левит 16
1 И глагола Господь к Моисею, по умертвии двух сынов Аароних, егда принесоста огнь чуждий пред Господа и скончастася.
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 И рече Господь к Моисею: глаголи Аарону, брату твоему, да не входит по вся часы в святое внутрь завесы, пред лице очистилища, еже есть над кивотом свидения, и да не умрет: во облаце бо явлюся над очистилищем:
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 сице внидет Аарон в святое: с телцем от говяд греха ради, и со овном на всесожжение,
“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 и в ризу льняну освящену да облечется, и надраги льняны да будут на теле его, и поясом льняным да опояшется, и клобук льнян да возложит, ризы святы суть: и да омыет водою все тело свое, и да облечется в ня:
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 и от сонма сынов Израилевых да возмет два козла от коз греха ради, и овна единаго во всесожжение,
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 и да приведет Аарон телца, иже греха ради своего, и да помолится о себе и о доме своем,
“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 и да возмет два козла, и поставит я пред Господем у дверий скинии свидения:
Then he must bring the two male goats to me at the entrance to the Sacred Tent.
8 и да возложит Аарон на оба козла жребия: жребий един Господу и жребий другий отпущению.
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 И да приведет Аарон козла, на немже паде жребий Господу, и да принесет греха ради:
Aaron must bring to me the goat that was chosen to be sacrificed. It will be an offering for the people’s sins.
10 и козла, на немже паде жребий отпущения, да поставит его жива пред Господем, яко помолитися над ним и яко отпустити его во отпущение, и да отпустит его в пустыню: и возмет козел на ся беззакония их в землю непроходиму.
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 И да приведет Аарон телца, иже греха ради своего, и да помолится о себе и о доме своем: и да заколет телца, иже греха ради своего.
“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 И да возмет кадилник полн углия огненна от олтаря, иже пред Господем, и да наполнит руце фимиама сложения чиста, и да принесет внутрь завесы:
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 и да возложит фимиам на огнь пред Господем, и покрыет дым фимиамный очистилище еже на свидениих, и не умрет.
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 И да возмет от крове телца, и да воскропит перстом на очистилище на востоки: пред лицем очистилище да воскропит седмижды от крове перстом своим.
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 И да заколет козла иже греха ради, иже за люди, пред Господем: и да внесет от крове его внутрь завесы, и да сотворит крови его, якоже сотвори крови телчи, и да воскропит кровию его на очистилище прямо очистилищу,
[“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 и очистит святое от нечистот сынов Израилевых и от неправд их, о всех гресех их: и тако сотворит скинии свидения сотворенней в них посреде нечистоты их.
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 И всяк человек да не будет в скинии свидения, егда входит молитися во святое, дондеже изыдет: и да помолится о себе и о доме своем и о всем сонме сынов Израилевых.
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 И изыдет ко олтарю, иже есть пред Господем, и помолится на нем, и да возмет от крове телца и от крове козла, и возложит на роги олтаря окрест:
“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 и да воскропит перстом своим нань седмижды от крове, и очистит его и освятит его от нечистот сынов Израилевых.
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 И совершит очищая святое и скинию свидения и олтарь, и от жерцех очистит, и приведет козла живаго:
“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 и да возложит Аарон обе руце свои на главу козла живаго, и да исповесть на нем вся беззакония сынов Израилевых и вся неправды их и вся грехи их: и возложит я на главу козла живаго, и отпустит рукою человека уготованнаго в пустыню:
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 и возмет козел на ся неправды их в землю непроходиму: и да отпустит козла в пустыню.
[It is as though] the goat will carry away into the desert [the guilt for] the sins of all the people.
23 И да внидет Аарон в скинию свидения, и да совлечет ризы льняны, в няже оболчен бяше, входящу ему во святое, и положит я тамо:
“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 и омыет тело свое водою на месте святе и да облечется в ризы своя, и изшед да сотворит всесожжение свое и всеплодие людское, и да помолится о себе и о доме своем, и о людех якоже и о жерцех:
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 и тук иже грехов ради да вознесет на олтарь.
He must also burn on the altar all the fat of the bull and the goat that were sacrificed.
26 И отпустивый козла отпущенаго во отпущение да исперет ризы своя и да омыет плоть свою водою, и по сих да внидет в полк.
“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 И телца иже греха ради, и козла иже греха ради, ихже кровь внесеся на очищение во святое, да изнесут я вне полка и да сожгут я на огни, и кожы их и мяса их и мотыла их:
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 сожигаяй же я да исперет ризы своя и да омыет тело свое водою, и по сем да внидет в полк.
The man who burns those things must then wash his clothes and bathe before he returns to the camp.
29 И будет сие вам законное вечное: в месяц седмый, в десятый день месяца, покорите душы вашя, и всякаго дела да не сотворите, ни туземец, ни пришлец прилежай в вас:
“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 в той бо день помолится о вас, еже очистити вас от всех грехов ваших пред Господем, и чисти будете:
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 суббота суббот покой да будет сия вам, и покорите душы вашя, законно вечно.
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 Помолится жрец, егоже аще помажут и егоже аще совершат руце его, еже жрети ему по отце своем, и да облечется в ризу льняну свою, ризу святу,
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 и да очистит Святое святаго и скинию свидения, и олтарь да очистит, и о жерцех и о всем сонме да помолится.
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 И будет сие вам законное вечное, еже молитися о сынех Израилевых о всех гресех их, единою в лето да сотворится, якоже заповеда Господь Моисею.
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.
