Levítico 16
1 El Señor habló a Moisés después de la muerte de dos de los hijos de Aarón cuando fueron a la presencia del Señor.
And YHWH speaks to Moses after the death of the two sons of Aaron, in their drawing near before YHWH, and they die;
2 El Señor le dijo a Moisés: “Adviértele a tu hermano Aarón que no venga al Lugar Santísimo en cualquier momento que lo desee, de lo contrario morirá. Porque ahí es donde aparezco en la nube sobre la cubierta de expiación del Arca, detrás del velo.
indeed, YHWH says to Moses, “Speak to your brother Aaron, and he does not come in at all times to the holy place within the veil, to the front of the propitiatory covering, which [is] on the Ark, and he does not die, for I am seen in a cloud on the propitiatory covering.
3 “Estas son las instrucciones para que Aarón entre en el santuario. Debe venir con un toro joven para una ofrenda por el pecado y con un carnero para una ofrenda quemada.
With this Aaron comes into the holy place: with a bullock, a son of the herd, for a sin-offering, and a ram for a burnt-offering;
4 Debe llevar la túnica de lino sagrada, con ropa interior de lino. Tiene que atar una faja de lino a su alrededor y ponerse el turbante de lino. Estas son ropas sagradas. Debe lavarse con agua antes de ponérsela.
he puts on a holy linen coat, and linen trousers are on his flesh, and he girds himself with a linen girdle, and he wraps himself up with a linen turban; they [are] holy garments; and he has bathed his flesh with water and put them on.
5 Del pueblo de Israel debe traer dos machos cabríos para la ofrenda por el pecado, y un carnero para el holocausto.
And from the congregation of the sons of Israel he takes two kids of the goats for a sin-offering and one ram for a burnt-offering;
6 Aarón presentará el toro como su propia ofrenda por el pecado para hacerse a sí mismo y a su familia.
and Aaron has brought the bullock of the sin-offering near, which is his own, and has made atonement for himself and for his house;
7 Luego traerá los dos machos cabríos y los presentará ante el Señor a la entrada del Tabernáculo de Reunión.
and he has taken the two goats, and has caused them to stand before YHWH, at the opening of the Tent of Meeting.
8 Aarón echará suertes para elegir entre los cabritos, uno para el Señor y otro para el chivo expiatorio.
And Aaron has given lots over the two goats, one lot for YHWH and one lot for a goat of departure;
9 Presentará el macho cabrío elegido por sorteo para el Señor y lo sacrificará como ofrenda por el pecado.
and Aaron has brought the goat near, on which the lot for YHWH has gone up, and has made it a sin-offering.
10 El macho cabrío elegido por sorteo como chivo expiatorio será presentado vivo ante el Señor para arreglar las cosas enviándolo al desierto como chivo expiatorio.
And the goat on which the lot for a goat of departure has gone up is caused to stand living before YHWH to make atonement by it, to send it away for a goat of departure into the wilderness.
11 “Aarón debe presentar el toro para su ofrenda por el pecado para hacer las cosas bien para él y su casa matando el toro como su propia ofrenda por el pecado.
And Aaron has brought the bullock of the sin-offering near, which is his own, and has made atonement for himself and for his house, and has slaughtered the bullock of the sin-offering which [is] his own,
12 Luego llenará un quemador de incienso con carbones encendidos del altar que está ante el Señor, y con sus manos llenas de incienso de olor dulce finamente molido, los llevará detrás del velo.
and has taken the fullness of the censer of burning coals of fire from off the altar, from before YHWH, and the fullness of his hands of thin spice-incense, and has brought [it] within the veil;
13 Pondrá el incienso en presencia del Señor, sobre las brasas, y el humo del incienso cubrirá la tapa de la expiación sobre el Testimonio, para que no muera.
and he has put the incense on the fire before YHWH, and the cloud of the incense has covered the propitiatory covering which [is] on the Testimony, and he does not die.
14 Tomará un poco de sangre del toro y con su dedo la rociará en el lado este de la tapa de expiación. También rociará un poco con su dedo siete veces delante de la tapa de la expiación.
And he has taken of the blood of the bullock, and has sprinkled with his finger on the front of the propitiatory covering eastward; even at the front of the propitiatory covering he sprinkles seven times of the blood with his finger.
15 “Entonces Aarón sacrificará el macho cabrío para la ofrenda por el pecado del pueblo y traerá su sangre detrás del velo, y con su sangre deberá hacer lo mismo que hizo con la sangre del toro: La rociará contra el propiciatorio y delante de él.
And he has slaughtered the goat of the sin-offering which [is] the people’s, and has brought in its blood to the inside of the veil, and has done with its blood as he has done with the blood of the bullock, and has sprinkled it on the propitiatory covering, and at the front of the propitiatory covering,
16 Así es como corregirá el Lugar Santísimo y lo purificará de la inmundicia de los israelitas, de sus actos de rebelión y de todos sus pecados. Hará lo mismo con el Tabernáculo de Reunión que está en medio de su campamento, rodeado de sus vidas inmundas.
and he has made atonement for the holy place because of the uncleanness of the sons of Israel, and because of their transgressions in all their sins; and so he does for the Tent of Meeting which is dwelling with them in the midst of their uncleannesses.
17 Nadie puede estar en el Tabernáculo de Reunión desde que Aarón entra para purificar el Lugar Santísimo hasta que sale, después de haber arreglado las cosas para él, su casa y todos los israelitas.
And no man is in the Tent of Meeting in his going in to make atonement in the holy place, until his coming out; and he has made atonement for himself, and for his house, and for all the assembly of Israel.
18 “Entonces irá al altar que está delante del Señor y lo purificará. Tomará la sangre del toro y del macho cabrío y la pondrá en todos los cuernos del altar.
And he has gone out to the altar which [is] before YHWH, and has made atonement for it; and he has taken of the blood of the bullock and of the blood of the goat, and has put [it] around the horns of the altar;
19 Rociará con su dedo siete veces la sangre para dedicarla y purificarla de la inmundicia de los israelitas.
and he has sprinkled on it of the blood with his finger seven times, and has cleansed it, and has hallowed it from the uncleannesses of the sons of Israel.
20 Una vez que Aarón haya terminado de purificar el Lugar Santísimo, el Tabernáculo de Reunión y el altar, presentará el macho cabrío vivo.
And he has ceased from making atonement [for] the holy place, and the Tent of Meeting, and the altar, and has brought the living goat near;
21 Luego pondrá ambas manos sobre la cabeza del macho cabrío vivo y confesará sobre él todas las faltas de los israelitas, todos sus actos de rebelión y todos sus pecados. Los pondrá sobre la cabeza del macho cabrío y lo enviará al desierto, llevado allí por un hombre elegido para hacerlo.
and Aaron has laid his two hands on the head of the living goat, and has confessed over it all the iniquities of the sons of Israel, and all their transgressions in all their sins, and has put them on the head of the goat, and has sent [it] away by the hand of a ready man into the wilderness;
22 El macho cabrío tomará sobre sí mismo todos sus pecados y se irá a un lugar lejano, y el hombre lo enviará al desierto.
and the goat has borne on himself all their iniquities to a land of separation. And he has sent the goat away into the wilderness,
23 “Aarón volverá al Tabernáculo de Reunión, se quitará las ropas de lino que se puso antes de entrar en el Lugar Santísimo, y las dejará allí.
and Aaron has come into the Tent of Meeting, and has stripped off the linen garments which he had put on in his going into the holy place, and has placed them there;
24 Se lavará con agua en el santuario y se pondrá su propia ropa. Luego saldrá a sacrificar su holocausto y el holocausto del pueblo que le da la razón a él y al pueblo.
and he has bathed his flesh with water in the holy place, and has put on his garments, and has come out, and has made his burnt-offering, and the burnt-offering of the people, and has made atonement for himself and for the people;
25 También debe quemar la grasa de la ofrenda por el pecado en el altar.
and with the fat of the sin-offering he makes incense on the altar.
26 “El hombre que fue y envió al chivo expiatorio debe lavar sus ropas y lavarse con agua; entonces podrá volver al campamento.
And he who is sending the goat away for a goat of departure washes his garments, and has bathed his flesh with water, and afterward he comes into the camp.
27 “Los restos del toro usado para la ofrenda por el pecado y la cabra para la ofrenda por el pecado, cuya sangre fue traída al Lugar Santísimo para purificarla, deben ser llevados fuera del campamento. Su piel, carne y desechos deben ser quemados.
And the bullock of the sin-offering and the goat of the sin-offering, whose blood has been brought in to make atonement in the holy place, [one] brings out to the outside of the camp, and they have burned their skins, and their flesh, and their dung with fire;
28 La persona que los queme debe lavar sus ropas y lavarse con agua; luego puede volver al campamento.
and he who is burning them washes his garments, and has bathed his flesh with water, and afterward he comes into the camp.
29 “Este reglamento se aplica a todos los tiempos. El décimo día del séptimo mes es un día de ayuno para ustedes. No debes hacer ningún trabajo. Esto se aplica a todos los nacidos en el país y también a cualquier extranjero que viva entre ustedes,
And it has been for a continuous statute to you, in the seventh month, on the tenth of the month, you humble yourselves, and do no work—the native and the sojourner who is sojourning in your midst;
30 porque en este día se hará el proceso de corregiros, para haceros limpios de todos sus pecados, limpios ante el Señor.
for on this day he makes atonement for you, to cleanse you; you are clean from all your sins before YHWH;
31 Es un sábado de los sábados, un día de descanso y de ayuno. Esta regulación se aplica para todo el tiempo.
it [is] a Sabbath of rest for you, and you have humbled yourselves—a continuous statute.
32 El sacerdote que es ungido y dedicado a suceder a su padre como sumo sacerdote llevará a cabo la ceremonia de hacer las cosas bien, y se pondrá las ropas de lino sagrado.
And the priest whom he anoints, and whose hand he consecrates to act as priest instead of his father, has made atonement, and has put on the linen garments, the holy garments;
33 Llevará a cabo la purificación del Lugar Santísimo, el Tabernáculo de Reunión y el altar, corrigiendo también a los sacerdotes y a todo el pueblo.
and he has made atonement [for] the holy sanctuary; and [for] the Tent of Meeting, even [for] the altar he makes atonement; indeed, he makes atonement for the priests and for all the people of the assembly.
34 Esta regla se aplica a ustedes para siempre: una vez al año los israelitas harán expiación por todos sus pecados”. Moisés hizo todo lo que el Señor le ordenó.
And this has been for a continuous statute to you, to make atonement for the sons of Israel, because of all their sins, once in a year”; and he does as YHWH has commanded Moses.
