Levítico 7
1 Esta es la Ley de la ofrenda por la culpa. Es cosa santísima.
“These are the regulations concerning the offerings to be made by people who are guilty of not giving to me the things that are required to be given to me. Those are very sacred offerings.
2 En el lugar donde se degüella el holocausto degollarán la ofrenda por la culpa, y el sacerdote rociará la sangre sobre el altar por todos los lados.
Each animal that is to be offered by such people must be slaughtered in the same place where the animals that will be completely burned [on the altar] are slaughtered, and their blood must be sprinkled against all sides of the altar.
3 Luego ofrecerá toda su grasa: la cola gorda, la grasa que cubre los intestinos,
All their fat, the fat tails that are cut close to the backbone, and all the fat that covers the inner parts of the animals or which is attached to them, must be burned [on the altar].
4 los dos riñones y la grasa que los cubre y sobre los ijares, y juntamente con los riñones sacará la grasa del hígado.
That includes the kidneys with their fat near the lower back muscle, and the protruding lobe that is attached to the liver.
5 Luego el sacerdote lo quemará sobre el altar como ofrenda quemada a Yavé. Es sacrificio por la culpa.
The priest must burn them on the altar to be offerings to me, Yahweh. They are an offering for the people to be forgiven for not doing what they were required to do.
6 Todo varón de entre los sacerdotes la comerá en un lugar santo. Es cosa santísima.
All the males in the priest’s family are permitted to eat its meat, but it must be eaten in a sacred place, because it is very sacred.
7 El sacrificio por el pecado es como el sacrificio por la culpa. Tienen una misma ley. Será de aquel sacerdote que haga con él el sacrificio que apacigua.
“The regulation is the same for the offerings [to enable people to be forgiven for the sins they have committed] and the offerings for when they are guilty of not giving to me the things that are required to be given to me. The meat of those offerings belongs to the priest who offers them in order that the people will be forgiven.
8 El sacerdote que presente el holocausto de alguno, tendrá para él mismo la piel del holocausto que presentó.
The priest who slaughters an animal that will be completely burned on the altar is permitted to keep the animal’s hide for himself.
9 Toda ofrenda vegetal que sea horneada y todo lo cocinado en cazuela o en sartén será del sacerdote que la presentó.
Offerings of things made from grain that are baked in an oven or cooked in a pan or (in a shallow pan/on a griddle) belong to the priest who makes those offerings [for another person].
10 Pero toda ofrenda vegetal amasada con aceite, o seca, será para todos los hijos de Aarón por igual.
And offerings of things made from grain, whether they were mixed with olive oil or not, also belong to the sons of Aaron.”
11 Esta es la Ley del sacrificio de paz que se presentará a Yavé:
These are the regulations concerning the offerings that people make to maintain fellowship [with Yahweh]:
12 Si lo presenta en acción de gracias, entonces, junto con el sacrificio de acción de gracias, presentará tortas sin levadura amasadas con aceite, hojaldres sin levadura untados con aceite y tortas fritas de flor de harina amasadas con aceite.
“If you bring an offering to thank [Yahweh], along with [the animal that you slaughter] you must offer loaves of bread made with olive oil mixed [with the flour] but without yeast, and wafers that are made without yeast but with olive oil smeared on them, and loaves made from fine flour with olive oil well mixed with the flour.
13 Además del sacrificio de sus ofrendas de paz en acción de gracias, presentará su ofrenda con tortas de pan leudado.
Along with that offering to thank Yahweh, you must bring an offering of loaves made with yeast.
14 De esta ofrenda se presentará una parte de cada sacrificio como ofrenda alzada a Yavé, y será del sacerdote que roció la sangre del sacrificio de paz.
You must bring one of each kind for an offering to Yahweh, but they belong to the priest who sprinkles against the altar the blood of the animal that is [slaughtered as an offering] to maintain fellowship with Yahweh.
15 La carne del sacrificio de paz en acción de gracias se comerá el día de su ofrecimiento. Nada se dejará para la mañana siguiente.
The meat of that offering must be eaten on the day that it is offered; none of it should be left to [be eaten on] the next day.
16 Pero si el sacrificio de la ofrenda es por un voto o una ofrenda voluntaria, se comerá el día cuando se presente el sacrificio y su sobrante podrá comerse al día siguiente.
“However, if your offering is the result of a solemn promise that you made to Yahweh, or if it is an offering that you make (voluntarily/without being required to), you are permitted to eat some of the meat on the day it is offered, but anything that is left may be eaten on the next day.
17 Pero si queda parte de la carne del sacrificio sobrante para el tercer día, se quemará en el fuego,
But any meat that is left until the third day must be completely burned.
18 pues si la carne del sacrificio de paz se come el tercer día, ciertamente no será aceptado ni tomado en cuenta. Será cosa repugnante, y la persona que coma de él cargará su pecado.
If any meat from the offering to maintain fellowship with Yahweh is eaten on the third day, Yahweh will not accept that offering; it will be useless to offer it, because Yahweh will consider that it is worthless. Anyone who eats some of it will have to pay a penalty [to Yahweh].
19 La carne que toque alguna cosa impura no se comerá. Será quemada en fuego. En cuanto a la otra carne, todo el que esté limpio puede comer tal carne.
“Meat that touches something [that God considers to be] impure must not be eaten; it must be completely burned. Anyone who has performed the rituals to become acceptable to God is allowed to eat other meat [which has been offered as a sacrifice].
20 Pero la persona que esté impura y coma carne del sacrificio de paz que pertenece a Yavé, será cortada de su pueblo.
But if anyone who has not performed those rituals eats some of the meat of the offering to maintain fellowship with Yahweh, meat that belongs to Yahweh, he must no longer be allowed to associate with God’s people.
21 Si alguno toca cosa impura, de impureza de hombre o de animal impuro, o de cualquier repugnancia impura, y luego come la carne del sacrificio de paz que pertenece a Yavé, será cortada de su pueblo.
If anyone touches something that God considers to be impure and very displeasing to him, whether it is from a human or from an animal, and then he eats any of the meat of the offering to maintain fellowship with Yahweh, meat that belongs to Yahweh, he must no longer be allowed to associate with God’s people.”
22 Yavé habló a Moisés:
Yahweh also said to Moses/me:
23 Habla a los hijos de Israel: No comerán grasa de becerro, ni de cordero, ni de cabra.
“Say this to the Israeli people: ‘Do not eat any of the fat of cattle or sheep or goats.
24 La grasa de animal muerto o destrozado podrá servir para cualquier uso, pero ciertamente no la comerán.
The fat of an animal that is found dead or that has been killed by a wild animal may be used for other purposes, but you must not eat it.
25 Porque cualquiera que coma la grasa del animal del cual se ofrece sacrificio que apacigua a Yavé será cortada de su pueblo.
Anyone who eats the fat of an animal from which an offering has been made to Yahweh must no longer be allowed to associate with God’s people.
26 Además, no comerán sangre ni de aves ni de bestias, en ningún lugar donde vivan.
And wherever you live, you must not eat the blood of any bird or animal.
27 Cualquier persona que coma sangre será cortada de su pueblo.
If anyone eats blood, he must no longer be allowed to associate with God’s people.’”
28 Yavé habló a Moisés:
Yahweh also said to Moses/me,
29 Habla a los hijos de Israel: El que presente un sacrificio de paz ante Yavé, conducirá su animal para el sacrificio de paz ante Yavé.
“Tell the Israeli people this: ‘Anyone who brings an offering to maintain fellowship with Yahweh must bring part of it to be a sacrifice to Yahweh.
30 Sus propias manos llevarán el animal que se quemará para Yavé. Presentará la grasa y el pecho. El pecho será ofrecido como ofrenda mecida a Yavé.
He himself must bring the offering that will be burned in the fire. He must bring the fat along with the breast of the animal and lift it up in front of Yahweh to indicate that it is an offering to him.
31 El sacerdote quemará la grasa en el altar, pero el pecho será para Aarón y sus hijos.
The Supreme Priest must burn the fat on the altar, but the breast belongs to Aaron and all his sons.
32 También darán el muslo derecho de sus ofrendas de paz al sacerdote como ofrenda mecida.
You must give to the Supreme Priest the right thigh of the animal that is sacrificed to maintain fellowship with Yahweh.
33 El hijo de Aarón que ofrezca la sangre del sacrificio de paz y la grasa recibirá el muslo derecho como porción suya.
The son of Aaron who offers the blood and the fat of that sacrifice must be given the right thigh of the animal as his share.
34 Porque Yo tomé el pecho que se mece y el muslo que se alza de los sacrificios de paz de los hijos de Israel, y los concedí al sacerdote Aarón y a sus hijos como estatuto perpetuo para los hijos de Israel.
From the offerings that the Israeli people give to maintain fellowship with Yahweh, he has declared that he has given to Aaron and his sons the breast that is lifted up and the right thigh that is offered; those portions must always be their regular share from the Israeli people.’”
35 Tal es la porción para Aarón y sus hijos de las ofrendas quemadas a Yavé, desde el día cuando Él los consagró para servir como sacerdotes de Yavé.
Those are the portions of the offerings brought/given to Yahweh and burned in fire that are allotted to Aaron and his sons on the day that they are set apart to serve Yahweh as priests.
36 Es lo que Yavé ordenó que se les dé como estatuto perpetuo en sus generaciones, desde el día cuando fueron ungidos por los hijos de Israel.
Yahweh commands that on the day that the priests are appointed [MTY], the Israeli people must always give those portions to the priests.
37 Tal es la Ley del holocausto, de la ofrenda vegetal, de la ofrenda por el pecado, de la ofrenda por la culpa, de las consagraciones y del sacrificio de las ofrendas de paz
Those are the regulations for the offerings that are to be completely burned on the altar, the offerings made from grain, the offerings to enable people to become acceptable to God again, the offerings for when people are guilty of not giving to Yahweh the things that are required to be given to him, the offerings given when the priests are appointed, and the offerings to maintain fellowship with Yahweh.
38 que Yavé ordenó a Moisés en la montaña Sinaí el día cuando mandó a los hijos de Israel que presentaran sus ofrendas ante Yavé en el desierto de Sinaí.
They are regulations that Yahweh gave to Moses/me on Sinai Mountain in the Sinai Desert, on the day that he commanded the Israeli people to start bringing their offerings to him.
