Levítico 24
1 Yahvé habló a Moisés, diciendo:
Yahweh also said to Moses/me,
2 “Ordena a los hijos de Israel que te traigan aceite de oliva puro batido para la luz, para hacer arder continuamente una lámpara.
“Command the Israeli people to continually bring to you clear oil made from pressed olives to burn in the lamps [in the Sacred Tent], in order that those lamps will burn all the time.
3 Fuera del velo del Testimonio, en la Tienda del Encuentro, Aarón la mantendrá en orden desde la tarde hasta la mañana ante Yahvé continuamente. Será un estatuto para siempre a lo largo de vuestras generaciones.
Outside the curtain of the Very Holy Place, Aaron must take care of the lamps in my presence continually, in order that they will burn all during the night. That regulation must be obeyed forever.
4 El mantendrá en orden las lámparas en el candelabro de oro puro ante el Señor continuamente.
Those lampstands that burn in my presence must be taken care of continually.
5 “Tomarás harina fina y cocerás con ella doce tortas; dos décimas de efa irán en una torta.
“Also, [each week] you must take some fine flour and bake twelve [very big] loaves of bread, using about four quarts/liters of flour for each loaf.
6 Las pondrás en dos hileras, seis en cada hilera, sobre la mesa de oro puro delante de Yahvé.
Put the loaves in two rows, with six loaves in each row, on the table covered with pure gold, in my presence.
7 Pondrás incienso puro en cada hilera, para que sea para el pan un memorial, una ofrenda encendida a Yahvé.
Along each row, place [in some gold cups] some pure incense to be burned to be an offering to me instead of the bread.
8 Cada día de reposo lo pondrá en orden delante de Yahvé continuamente. Es un pacto eterno a favor de los hijos de Israel.
New/Fresh loaves of bread must be put [on the table] each Sabbath day, to signify the agreement that will never end, that I have made with you Israeli people.
9 Será para Aarón y sus hijos. Lo comerán en un lugar sagrado, porque es lo más sagrado para él de las ofrendas de Yahvé hechas por fuego por un estatuto perpetuo.”
The bread [that is taken off the table] belongs to Aaron and his sons. They must eat it in a holy place, because it is a very holy part of the offerings that are given to me by being burned.”
10 El hijo de una mujer israelita, cuyo padre era egipcio, salió entre los hijos de Israel; y el hijo de la mujer israelita y un hombre de Israel se pelearon en el campamento.
There was a man whose mother’s name was Shelomith; she was an Israeli whose father was Dibri from the tribe of Dan. And that man’s father was from Egypt. One day that man and another Israeli man started to fight inside the camp. And while they were fighting, that man cursed Yahweh [MTY].
11 El hijo de la mujer israelita blasfemó el Nombre y maldijo, y lo llevaron a Moisés. Su madre se llamaba Selomit, hija de Dibri, de la tribu de Dan.
12 Lo pusieron en custodia hasta que se les declarara la voluntad de Yahvé.
So the Israeli people seized him and guarded him until they could find out what Yahweh would reveal to them [that they should do to that man].
13 Yahvé habló a Moisés, diciendo:
Then Yahweh said to Moses/me,
14 “Saca del campamento al que ha maldecido, y que todos los que lo hayan oído pongan sus manos sobre su cabeza, y que toda la congregación lo apedree.
“[Tie up and] take outside the camp the man who has cursed me. There all those who heard what he said must put their hands on his head [to indicate that he is guilty], and then all the people must [kill him by] throwing stones at him.
15 Hablarás a los hijos de Israel diciendo: “El que maldiga a su Dios cargará con su pecado.
Tell the Israelis, ‘If anyone curses me, he must (endure the consequences/be punished).
16 El que blasfeme el nombre de Yahvé, ciertamente morirá. Toda la congregación lo apedreará ciertamente. Tanto el extranjero como el nativo serán condenados a muerte cuando blasfemen el Nombre.
So anyone who curses me [MTY] must be executed. All the people must throw stones at him. It does not matter if he is a foreigner or an Israeli citizen; anyone who curses me must be executed.’
17 “‘El que hiera mortalmente a un hombre, morirá.
“Also, If anyone murders another person, he must be executed.
18 El que hiera mortalmente a un animal, lo compensará, vida por vida.
And anyone who kills [another person’s] animal must give that person a live animal to replace the one that he killed.
19 Si alguien hiere a su prójimo, se hará con él lo mismo que él ha hecho:
And if one person injures another person, the injured person is allowed to injure the person who injured him in the same way:
20 fractura por fractura, ojo por ojo, diente por diente. Se hará con él lo mismo que haya hecho con alguien.
If someone breaks one of another person’s bones, that person is allowed to break one of the bones of the person who injured him. If someone gouges out an eye of another person, that person is allowed to gouge out the eye of the person who injured him. If someone knocks out the tooth of another person, that person is allowed to knock out one of his teeth. What is done to the offender must be the same as what he did to the other person.
21 El que mate a un animal lo compensará, y el que mate a un hombre será condenado a muerte.
Whoever kills [another person’s] animal must give that person a live animal to replace the one that he killed, but anyone who murders another person must be executed.
22 Tendrás un mismo tipo de ley tanto para el extranjero como para el nativo, porque yo soy Yahvé, tu Dios”.
That law applies to you Israelis and and also to the foreigners who live among you; I, Yahweh your God [am the one who has commanded it].”
23 Moisés habló a los hijos de Israel, y sacaron del campamento al que había maldecido y lo apedrearon. Los hijos de Israel hicieron lo que Yahvé les ordenó a Moisés.
Then Moses/I told the Israelis [what they must do to the man who cursed Yahweh], so they took the man outside the camp and [killed him by] throwing stones at him. They did what Yahweh commanded Moses/me [to tell them to do].
