Levítico 20
1 El Señor le dijo a Moisés:
And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
2 “Diles a los israelitas: estas normas son para los israelitas y los extranjeros que viven entre ellos. Cualquiera que sacrifique sus hijos a Moloc debe ser ejecutado. La comunidad debe apedrearlos hasta la muerte.
Moreover, thou shall say to the sons of Israel, Whoever he is of the sons of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn in Israel, who gives of his seed to Molech, he shall surely be put to death. The people of the land shall stone him with stones.
3 Los repudiaré y los expulsaré de su pueblo, porque al sacrificar sus hijos a Moloc, han contaminado mi santuario y deshonrado mi reputación.
I also will set my face against that man, and will cut him off from among his people, because he has given of his seed to Molech, to defile my sanctuary, and to profane my holy name.
4 Si la comunidad decide mirar hacia otro lado y no ejecutar a aquellos que sacrifican sus hijos a Moloch, entonces yo mismo tomaré medidas contra ellos.
And if the people at the land do at all hide their eyes from that man, when he gives of his seed to Molech, and do not put him to death,
5 Los repudiaré a ellos y a su familia, y los expulsaré de su pueblo, y no sólo a ellos, sino a todos los que los sigan en la prostitución espiritual con Moloc.
then I will set my face against that man, and against his family, and will cut him off, and all who play the harlot after him, to play the harlot with Molech, from among their people.
6 “También repudiaré y expulsaré de su gente a cualquiera que vaya a médiums o espiritistas y de esta manera cometa prostitución espiritual con ellos.
And the soul that turns to those who have familiar spirits, and to the wizards, to play the harlot after them, I will even set my face against that soul, and will cut him off from among his people.
7 “Así que dedíquense y sean santos, porque yo soy el Señor su Dios.
Sanctify yourselves therefore, and become ye holy, for I am Jehovah your God.
8 Guarden mis reglas y pónganlas en práctica. Yo soy el Señor que los santifica.
And ye shall keep my statutes, and do them. I am Jehovah who sanctifies you.
9 “Cualquiera que maldiga a su padre o madre debe ser ejecutado. Han maldecido a su padre o madre; ellos son los responsables de su castigo.
For he who curses his father or his mother shall surely be put to death. He has cursed his father or his mother; his blood shall be upon him.
10 “Cualquier hombre que cometa adulterio con la esposa de otro debe ser ejecutado, así como la mujer.
And the man who commits adultery with another man's wife, even he who commits adultery with his neighbor's wife, the adulterer and the adulteress shall surely be put to death.
11 “Un hombre que tiene sexo con la esposa de su padre ha traído la vergüenza a su padre. Tanto el hombre como la mujer deben ser ejecutados. Ambos deben ser ejecutados; ellos son responsables de su castigo.
And the man who lies with his father's wife has uncovered his father's nakedness. Both of them shall surely be put to death, their blood shall be upon them.
12 “Un hombre que tiene relaciones sexuales con su nuera debe ser ejecutado, así como ella. Han hecho algo perverso; ellos son los responsables de su castigo.
And if a man lies with his daughter-in-law, both of them shall surely be put to death. They have wrought perversion. Their blood shall be upon them.
13 “Los hombres que tienen relaciones sexuales con otros hombres como con una mujer habrán hecho algo repugnante. Deben ser ejecutados; ellos son culpables de su castigo.
And if a man lies with a man, as with a woman, both of them have committed abomination. They shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.
14 “Un hombre que se casa con una mujer y con su madre ha actuado de manera perversa. Deben ser quemados hasta la muerte para que no haya tal maldad entre ustedes.
And if a man takes a wife and her mother, it is wickedness. They shall be burnt with fire, both he and they, that there be no wickedness among you.
15 “El hombre que tenga relaciones sexuales con un animal debe ser ejecutado, y el animal debe ser matado también.
And if a man lies with a beast, he shall surely be put to death, and ye shall kill the beast.
16 “Una mujer que se entrega a un animal para tener sexo con él debe ser ejecutada, junto con el animal. Ambos deben ser asesinados; ellos son responsables de su castigo.
And if a woman approaches to any beast, and lies down with it, thou shall kill the woman and the beast. They shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.
17 “Un hombre que se casa con su hermana, ya sea hija de su padre o de su madre, y tienen relaciones sexuales, ha hecho algo vergonzoso. Deben ser expulsados de su pueblo delante de todos. Ha avergonzado a su hermana; él tiene la responsabilidad de su castigo.
And if a man shall take his sister, his father's daughter, or his mother's daughter, and see her nakedness, and she sees his nakedness, it is a shameful thing, and they shall be cut off in the sight of the sons of their people. He has uncovered his sister's nakedness; he shall bear his iniquity.
18 “Un hombre que tiene relaciones sexuales con una mujer que está teniendo su período ha expuesto de dónde proviene el flujo de sangre de ella, y ella también lo ha hecho. Ambos deben ser expulsados de su pueblo.
And if a man shall lie with a woman having her sickness, and shall uncover her nakedness, he has made naked her fountain, and she has uncovered the fountain of her blood. And both of them shall be cut off from among their people.
19 “No tengas relaciones sexuales con tu tía, ya sea por parte de tu padre o de tu madre, porque eso avergüenza a tu propia familia. Ambos serán responsables de su pecado.
And thou shall not uncover the nakedness of thy mother's sister, nor of thy father's sister, for he has made naked his near kin. They shall bear their iniquity.
20 “Un hombre que tiene sexo con la esposa de su tío trae vergüenza a su tío. Ellos serán responsables de su pecado; morirán sin tener hijos.
And if a man shall lie with his uncle's wife, he has uncovered his uncle's nakedness. They shall bear their sin; they shall die childless.
21 “Un hombre que se casa con la mujer de su hermano hace algo que es impuro. Ha avergonzado a su hermano; la pareja no tendrá hijos.
And if a man shall take his brother's wife, it is impurity. He has uncovered his brother's nakedness; they shall be childless.
22 “Así que guarda todas mis reglas y regulaciones, para que la tierra donde te llevo a vivir no te vomite.
Ye shall therefore keep all my statutes, and all my ordinances, and do them, that the land, where I bring you to dwell in it, not vomit you out.
23 No sigas las prácticas de las naciones que estoy expulsando por ti. Las detesté porque hicieron todas estas cosas malvadas.
And ye shall not walk in the customs of the nation which I cast out before you, for they did all these things, and therefore I abhorred them.
24 Pero te he prometido que te harás cargo de su tierra. Te la voy a dar en propiedad, una tierra que fluye con leche y miel. Yo soy el Señor tu Dios, que te ha hecho un pueblo distinto de todos los demás.
But I have said to you, Ye shall inherit their land, and I will give it to you to possess it, a land flowing with milk and honey. I am Jehovah your God, who has separated you from the peoples.
25 “Así que asegúrate de observar la diferencia entre las aves y animales limpios e inmundos. No se vuelvan inmundos por causa de ningún animal o ave, ni por nada que corra por la tierra. He dejado clara la diferencia: son inmundos para ustedes.
Ye shall therefore make a distinction between the clean beast and the unclean, and between the unclean fowl and the clean. And ye shall not make your souls abominable by beast, or by bird, or by anything with which the ground teems, which I have separated from you as unclean.
26 Ustedes serán santos para mí porque yo soy santo. Yo soy el Señor, y los he hecho un pueblo distinto de todas las demás naciones. Ustedes me pertenecen.
And ye shall be holy to me, for I, Jehovah, am holy, and have set you apart from the peoples, that ye should be mine.
27 “Todo hombre o mujer que sea médium o espiritista debe ser ejecutado. Deben ser apedreados hasta la muerte; ellos son responsables de su castigo”.
A man or also a woman who has a familiar spirit, or that is a wizard, shall surely be put to death. They shall stone them with stones; their blood shall be upon them.
