Levítico 20
1 Y él Señor dijo a Moisés:
The Lord told Moses,
2 Nuevamente, di a los hijos de Israel: Si algún hombre de los hijos de Israel, o cualquier otro hombre que vive en Israel, le da su descendencia a Molec, ciertamente será ejecutado: debe ser apedreado. por el pueblo de la tierra;
“Tell the Israelites: these regulations are for both Israelites and foreigners living among them. Anyone who sacrifices their children to Molech must be executed. The community must stone them to death.
3 Y mi rostro se volverá contra ese hombre, y él será cortado de su pueblo; porque ha dado su descendencia a Molec, haciendo mi lugar santo inmundo, y profanar mi santo nombre.
I will disown them and expel them from their people, because by sacrificing their children to Molech they have polluted my sanctuary and disgraced my reputation.
4 Y si la gente de la tierra no toma nota de ese hombre cuando da su descendencia a Molec, y no lo mata,
If the community decides to look the other way and not execute those who sacrifice their children to Molech, then I will take action against them myself.
5 Entonces mi rostro se volverá contra él y su familia, y él y todos los que fornicaron prostituyéndose con él serán separados de entre su gente.
I will disown them and their family, and expel them from their people—and not just them, but everyone who follows them in spiritually prostituting themselves with Molech.
6 Y el que persiga a los que hacen uso de espíritus y adivinadores, prostituyéndose con ellos, se volverá contra él, y será cortado de entre su pueblo.
I will also disown and expel from their people anyone who goes to mediums or spiritists and in this way commits spiritual prostitution with them.
7 Así que se santo y mantente santo, porque yo soy el Señor, tu Dios.
So dedicate yourselves and be holy, because I am the Lord your God.
