Levítico 4

1 Entonces el Señor le dijo a Moisés:

And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,

2 “Dile a los israelitas que estas son las reglas para manejar los casos de aquellos que pecan involuntariamente contra alguno de los mandamientos del Señor y hacen lo que no está permitido.

“Speak to the sons of Israel, saying, When a person sins through ignorance against any of the commands of YHWH [regarding things] which are not to be done, and has done [something] against one of these—

3 “Si es el Sumo Sacerdote quien peca y trae la culpa sobre todos, debe presentar al Señor un novillo sin defectos como ofrenda por su pecado.

if the priest who is anointed sins according to the guilt of the people, then he has brought near for his sin which he has sinned a bullock, a son of the herd, a perfect one, to YHWH, for a sin-offering,

4 Debes llevar el toro a la entrada del Tabernáculo de Reunión ante el Señor, poner su mano sobre su cabeza y matarlo ante el Señor.

and he has brought in the bullock to the opening of the Tent of Meeting before YHWH, and has laid his hand on the head of the bullock, and has slaughtered the bullock before YHWH.

5 Entonces el sumo sacerdote llevará parte de la sangre del toro al Tabernáculo de Reunión.

And the priest who is anointed has taken of the blood of the bullock, and has brought it into the Tent of Meeting,

6 El sumo sacerdote mojará su dedo en la sangre y rociará un poco de ella siete veces delante el Señor, frente del velo del santuario.

and the priest has dipped his finger in the blood, and sprinkled of the blood seven times before YHWH, at the front of the veil of the holy place;

7 El sacerdote pondrá un poco de sangre sobre los cuernos del altar de incienso aromático que está ante el Señor en el Tabernáculo de Reunión. El resto de la sangre del toro la derramará en el fondo del altar de los holocaustos, a la entrada del Tabernáculo de Reunión.

and the priest has put of the blood on the horns of the altar of spice-incense before YHWH, which [is] in the Tent of Meeting, and he pours out all the blood of the bullock at the foundation of the altar of the burnt-offering, which [is] at the opening of the Tent of Meeting.

8 Entonces quitará toda la grasa del toro de la ofrenda por el pecado: toda la grasa que cubre las entrañas,

And he lifts up from it all the fat of the bullock of the sin-offering, the fat which is covering over the innards, and all the fat which [is] on the innards,

9 ambos riñones con la grasa en ellos por los lomos, y la mejor parte del hígado, que debe eliminar junto con los riñones

and the two kidneys, and the fat which [is] on them, which [is] on the flanks, and the redundance on the liver above the kidneys—he turns it aside,

10 de la misma manera que la grasa se quita del toro de la ofrenda de paz. Entonces el sacerdote quemará esto en el altar de la ofrenda quemada.

as it is lifted up from the ox of the sacrifice of the peace-offerings; and the priest has made them an incense on the altar of the burnt-offering.

11 “Pero la piel del toro, toda su carne, cabeza, patas, interiores y desechos,

And the skin of the bullock, and all its flesh, with its head, and with its legs, and its innards, and its dung—

12 y todo el resto, tiene que llevarlo fuera del campamento a un lugar que esté ceremonialmente limpio, donde se arrojen las cenizas, y debe quemarlo en un fuego de leña allí en el montón de cenizas.

he has even brought out the whole bullock to the outside of the camp, to a clean place, to the place of the pouring out of the ashes, and he has burned it on the wood with fire; it is burned beside the place of the pouring out of the ashes.

13 “Si todo el pueblo de Israel se extravía sin querer, y aunque no sean conscientes de hacer lo que no está permitido por ninguno de los mandamientos del Señor, siguen siendo todos culpables.

And if all the congregation of Israel errs ignorantly, and the thing has been hidden from the eyes of the assembly, and they have done [something against] one of all the commands of YHWH [regarding things] which are not to be done, and have been guilty;

14 Cuando se den cuenta de su pecado, deben traer un toro joven como ofrenda por el pecado y presentarlo ante el Tabernáculo de Reunión.

when the sin which they have sinned concerning it has been known, then the assembly has brought a bullock near, a son of the herd, for a sin-offering, and they have brought it in before the Tent of Meeting;

15 Los ancianos de Israel pondrán sus manos sobre su cabeza y lo matarán delante el Señor.

and the elderly of the congregation have laid their hands on the head of the bullock, before YHWH, and [one] has slaughtered the bullock before YHWH.

16 Entonces el sumo sacerdote llevará parte de la sangre del toro al Tabernáculo de Reunión.

And the priest who is anointed has brought in of the blood of the bullock to the Tent of Meeting,

17 Mojará su dedo en la sangre y lo rociará siete veces ante el Señor delante del velo.

and the priest has dipped his finger in the blood, and has sprinkled seven times before YHWH at the front of the veil,

18 Pondrá un poco de sangre en los cuernos del altar que está delante del Señor en el Tabernáculo de Reunión. Luego derramará el resto de la sangre del toro en el fondo del altar de los holocaustos a la entrada del Tabernáculo de Reunión.

and he puts [some] of the blood on the horns of the altar which [is] before YHWH, which [is] in the Tent of Meeting; and he pours out all the blood at the foundation of the altar of the burnt-offering, which [is] at the opening of the Tent of Meeting;

19 Luego le quitará toda la grasa al toro y lo quemará en el altar.

and he lifts up all its fat from it, and has made incense on the altar.

20 Ofrecerá este toro de la misma manera que lo hizo para la ofrenda por el pecado. Así es como el sacerdote los expiará, y serán perdonados.

And he has done to the bullock as he has done to the bullock of the sin-offering, so he does to it; and the priest has made atonement for them, and it has been forgiven them;

21 Entonces tomará el toro fuera del campamento y lo quemará, tal y como quemó el toro anteriormente mencionado. Es la ofrenda por el pecado de todo el pueblo.

and he has brought out the bullock to the outside of the camp, and has burned it as he has burned the first bullock; it [is] a sin-offering of the assembly.

22 “Si un líder peca involuntariamente y hace lo que no está permitido por ninguno de los mandamientos del Señor su Dios, es culpable.

When a prince sins, and has done [something against] one of all the commands of his God YHWH [regarding things] which are not to be done, through ignorance, and has been guilty,

23 Cuando se dé cuenta de su pecado, debe traer un macho cabrío sin defectos como ofrenda.

or his sin wherein he has sinned has been made known to him, then he has brought in his offering, a kid of the goats, a male, a perfect one,

24 Debe poner su mano en la cabeza del cabrito y matarlo en el lugar donde se presenta la ofrenda quemada ante el Señor. Es una ofrenda por el pecado.

and he has laid his hand on the head of the goat, and has slaughtered it in the place where he slaughters the burnt-offering before YHWH; it [is] a sin-offering.

25 Entonces el sacerdote debe tomar parte de la sangre de la ofrenda por el pecado con su dedo y ponerla en los cuernos del altar de la ofrenda quemada, y derramar el resto de la sangre en la base del altar.

And the priest has taken of the blood of the sin-offering with his finger, and has put [it] on the horns of the altar of the burnt-offering, and he pours out its blood at the foundation of the altar of the burnt-offering,

26 Quemará toda su grasa en el altar como la grasa de las ofrendas de paz. De esta manera el sacerdote expiará el pecado del hombre y será perdonado.

and he makes incense on the altar with all its fat, as the fat of the sacrifice of the peace-offerings; and the priest has made atonement for him because of his sin, and it has been forgiven him.

27 “Si cualquier otro israelita peca involuntariamente y hace lo que no está permitido por ninguno de los mandamientos del Señor su Dios, es culpable.

And if any person of the people of the land sins through ignorance, by his doing [something against] one of the commands of YHWH [regarding things] which are not to be done, and has been guilty,

28 Cuando se dé cuenta de su pecado, debe traer una cabra sin defectos como ofrenda por ese pecado.

or his sin which he has sinned has been made known to him, then he has brought in his offering, a kid of the goats, a perfect one, a female, for his sin which he has sinned,

29 Debe poner su mano en la cabeza de la ofrenda por el pecado y matarla en el lugar del holocausto.

and he has laid his hand on the head of the sin-offering, and has slaughtered the sin-offering in the place of the burnt-offering.

30 Entonces el sacerdote debe tomar un poco de su sangre con su dedo y ponerla en los cuernos del altar de la ofrenda quemada, y derramar el resto de la sangre en la base del altar.

And the priest has taken of its blood with his finger, and has put [it] on the horns of the altar of the burnt-offering, and he pours out all its blood at the foundation of the altar,

31 Le quitará toda su grasa como la grasa de las ofrendas de paz y la quemará en el altar y será aceptada por el Señor. De esta manera el sacerdote expiará el pecado del hombre y será perdonado.

and he turns aside all its fat, as the fat has been turned aside from off the sacrifice of the peace-offerings, and the priest has made incense on the altar for refreshing fragrance to YHWH; and the priest has made atonement for him, and it has been forgiven him.

32 “Si trae un cordero como ofrenda por el pecado, debe traer una hembra sin defectos.

And if he brings in a sheep [for] his offering, a female for a sin-offering, he brings in a perfect one,

33 Debe poner su mano en la cabeza de la ofrenda por el pecado y matarla como ofrenda por el pecado en el lugar donde se hace el holocausto.

and he has laid his hand on the head of the sin-offering, and has slaughtered it for a sin-offering in the place where he slaughters the burnt-offering.

34 Entonces el sacerdote debe tomar un poco de su sangre con su dedo y ponerla en los cuernos del altar de la ofrenda quemada, y derramar el resto de la sangre en la base del altar.

And the priest has taken of the blood of the sin-offering with his finger, and has put [it] on the horns of the altar of the burnt-offering, and he pours out all its blood at the foundation of the altar,

35 Le quitará toda su grasa como la grasa del cordero se quita de las ofrendas de paz y la quemará en el altar y será aceptada por el Señor. De esta forma el sacerdote expiará el pecado del hombre, y será perdonado”.

and he turns aside all its fat, as the fat of the sheep is turned aside from the sacrifice of the peace-offerings, and the priest has made them an incense on the altar, according to the fire-offerings of YHWH, and the priest has made atonement for him, for his sin which he has sinned, and it has been forgiven him.”
