Levítico 17
1 Y habló el SEÑOR a Moisés, diciendo:
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
2 Habla a Aarón y a sus hijos, y a todos los hijos de Israel, y diles: Esto es lo que ha mandado el SEÑOR, diciendo:
Speak to Aaron and to his sons, and to all the children of Israel, and you shall say to them, This is the word which the Lord has commanded, saying,
3 Cualquier varón de la Casa de Israel que degollare buey, o cordero, o cabra, en el real, o fuera del real,
Every man of the children of Israel, or of the strangers dwelling amongst you, who shall kill a calf, or a sheep, or a goat in the camp, or who shall kill it out of the camp,
4 y no lo trajere a la puerta del tabernáculo del testimonio, para ofrecer ofrenda al SEÑOR delante del tabernáculo del SEÑOR, sangre será imputada al tal varón; sangre derramó; el tal varón será cortado de entre su pueblo;
and shall not bring it to the door of the tabernacle of witness, so as to sacrifice it for a whole burnt offering or peace-offering to the Lord to be acceptable for a sweet smelling savour: and whoever shall kill it without, and shall not bring it to the door of the tabernacle of witness, so as to offer it as a gift to the Lord before the tabernacle of the Lord; blood shall be imputed to that man, he has shed blood; that soul shall be cut off from his people.
5 a fin de que traigan los hijos de Israel sus sacrificios, los que sacrifican sobre la faz del campo, para que los traigan al SEÑOR a la puerta del tabernáculo del testimonio al sacerdote, y sacrifiquen ellos sacrificios de paz al SEÑOR.
That the children of Israel may offer their sacrifices, all that they shall kill in the fields, and bring them to the Lord to the doors of the tabernacle of witness to the priest, and they shall sacrifice them as a peace-offering to the Lord.
6 Y el sacerdote esparza la sangre sobre el altar del SEÑOR, a la puerta del tabernáculo del testimonio, y haga perfume del sebo en olor muy aceptable al SEÑOR.
And the priest shall pour the blood on the altar round about before the Lord by the doors of the tabernacle of witness, and shall offer the fat for a sweet smelling savour to the Lord.
7 Y nunca más sacrificarán sus sacrificios a los demonios, tras de los cuales fornican; tendrán esto por estatuto perpetuo por sus edades.
And they shall no longer offer their sacrifices to vain [gods] after which they go a whoring; it shall be a perpetual statute to you for your generations.
8 Les dirás también: Cualquier varón de la Casa de Israel, o de los extranjeros que peregrinan entre vosotros, que ofreciere holocausto o sacrificio,
And you shall say to them, Whatever man of the children of Israel, or of the sons of the proselytes dwelling amongst you, shall offer a whole burnt offering or a sacrifice,
9 y no lo trajere a la puerta del tabernáculo del testimonio, para hacerlo al SEÑOR, el tal varón también será cortado de su pueblo.
and shall not bring it to the door of the tabernacle of witness to sacrifice it to the Lord, that man shall be destroyed from amongst his people.
10 Y cualquier varón de la Casa de Israel, o de los extranjeros que peregrinan entre ellos, que comiere alguna sangre, yo pondré mi rostro contra la persona que comiere sangre, y la cortaré de entre su pueblo.
And whatever man of the children of Israel, or of the strangers dwelling amongst you, shall eat any blood, I will even set my face against that soul that eats blood, and will destroy it from its people.
11 Porque el alma ( o la vida ) de la carne en la sangre está; y yo os la he dado para expiar vuestras personas ( almas ) sobre el altar; por lo cual la misma sangre expiará la persona.
For the life of flesh is its blood, and I have given it to you on the altar to make atonement for your souls; for its blood shall make atonement for the soul.
12 Por tanto, he dicho a los hijos de Israel: Ninguna persona de vosotros comerá sangre, ni el extranjero que peregrina entre vosotros comerá sangre.
Therefore I said to the children of Israel, No soul of you shall eat blood, and the stranger that abides amongst you shall not eat blood.
13 Y cualquier varón de los hijos de Israel, o de los extranjeros que peregrinan entre ellos, que cogiere caza de animal o de ave que sea de comer, derramará su sangre y la cubrirá con tierra.
And whatever man of the children of Israel, or of the strangers dwelling amongst you shall take any animal in hunting, beast, or bird, which is eaten, then shall he pour out the blood, and cover it in the dust.
14 Porque el alma de toda carne, su vida, está en su sangre; por tanto he dicho a los hijos de Israel: No comeréis la sangre de ninguna carne, porque el alma ( o la vida ) de toda carne es su sangre; cualquiera que la comiere será cortado.
For the blood of all flesh is its life; and I said to the children of Israel, You shall not eat the blood of any flesh, for the life of all flesh is its blood: every one that eats it shall be destroyed.
15 Y cualquiera persona que comiere cosa mortecina o despedazada por fiera, así de los naturales como de los extranjeros, lavará sus vestidos, y a sí mismo se lavará con agua, y será inmundo hasta la tarde; y se limpiará.
And every soul which eats that which has died of itself, or is taken of beasts, either amongst the natives or amongst the strangers, shall wash his garments, and bathe himself in water, and shall be unclean until evening: then shall he be clean.
16 Y si no los lavare, ni lavare su carne, llevará su iniquidad.
But if he do not wash his garments, and do not bathe his body in water, then shall he bear his iniquity.
