Levitico 21
1 At sinabi ng Panginoon kay Moises, Salitain mo sa mga saserdote na mga anak ni Aaron, at sabihin mo sa kanila, Sinoman ay huwag magpakahawa ng dahil sa patay, sa gitna ng kaniyang bayan,
And the Lord said to Moses, Say to the priests, the sons of Aaron, Let no man make himself unclean for the dead among his people;
2 Maliban sa kamaganak na malapit, sa kaniyang ina at sa kaniyang ama at sa kaniyang anak na lalake at babae, at sa kaniyang kapatid na lalake,
But only for his near relations, for his mother or his father, his son or his daughter, and his brother;
3 At sa kaniyang kapatid na dalaga, na malapit sa kaniya, na walang asawa, ay maaring magpakahawa siya.
And for his sister, a virgin, for she is his near relation and has had no husband, he may make himself unclean.
4 Yamang puno sa kaniyang bayan, ay huwag siyang magpapakahawa na magpapakarumi.
But let him, being a chief among his people, not make himself unclean in such a way as to put shame on himself.
5 Huwag nilang kakalbuhin ang kanilang ulo, o gugupitin man ang dulo ng kanilang balbas, o kukudlitan man ang kanilang laman.
They are not to have their hair cut off for the dead, or the hair on their chins cut short, or make cuts in their flesh.
6 Sila'y magpakabanal sa kanilang Dios, at huwag nilang lalapastanganin ang pangalan ng kanilang Dios: sapagka't sila ang naghahandog ng mga handog sa Panginoon na pinaraan sa apoy, na tinapay ng kanilang Dios, kaya't sila'y magpapakabanal.
Let them be holy to their God and not make the name of their God common; for the fire offerings of the Lord and the bread of their God are offered by them, and they are to be holy.
7 Huwag silang makikisama sa patutot o lapastangan, ni makikisama sa babaing inihiwalay ng kaniyang asawa: sapagka't ang saserdote ay banal sa kaniyang Dios.
They may not take as wife a loose or common woman, or one who has been put away by her husband: for the priest is holy to his God.
8 Papagbabanalin mo nga siya; sapagka't siya ang naghahandog ng tinapay ng inyong Dios: siya'y magiging banal sa inyo; sapagka't akong Panginoon nagpapaging banal sa inyo ay banal.
And he is to be holy in your eyes, for by him the bread of your God is offered; he is to be holy in your eyes, for I the Lord, who make you holy, am holy.
9 At kung ang anak na babae ng isang saserdote ay magpakarumi sa pagpapatutot, ay kaniyang binigyan ng kahihiyan ang kaniyang ama: siya'y susunugin sa apoy.
And if the daughter of a priest makes herself common and by her loose behaviour puts shame on her father, let her be burned with fire.
10 At ang pangulong saserdote sa kanilang magkakapatid, na binuhusan ang ulo ng langis na pang-pahid, at itinalaga, upang makapagbihis ng mga banal na bihisan ay huwag maglulugay ng buhok ng kaniyang ulo ni huwag hahapakin ang kaniyang mga suot;
And he who is the chief priest among his brothers, on whose head the holy oil has been put, who is marked out to put on the holy robes, may not let his hair go loose or have his clothing out of order as a sign of sorrow.
11 Ni papasok sa kinaroroonan ng bangkay nino man, ni magpapakahawa dahil sa kaniyang ama, o dahil sa kaniyang ina;
He may not go near any dead body or make himself unclean for his father or his mother;
12 Ni lalabas sa santuario, ni lalapastanganin ang santuario ng kaniyang Dios; sapagka't ang talaga na langis na pang-pahid ng kaniyang Dios ay nasa ulo niya: ako ang Panginoon.
He may not go out of the holy place or make the holy place of his God common; for the crown of the holy oil of his God is on him: I am the Lord.
13 At siya'y magaasawa sa isang dalagang malinis.
And let him take as his wife one who has not had relations with a man.
14 Sa bao o inihiwalay, sa lamas o patutot ay huwag siyang magaasawa; kundi sa isang dalagang malinis sa kaniyang sariling bayan magaasawa siya.
A widow, or one whose husband has put her away, or a common woman of loose behaviour, may not be the wife of a priest; but let him take a virgin from among his people.
15 At huwag niyang dudumhan ang kaniyang mga binhi sa gitna ng kaniyang bayan: sapagka't ako ang Panginoon na nagpapaging banal sa kaniya.
And he may not make his seed unclean among his people, for I the Lord have made him holy.
16 At sinalita ng Panginoon kay Moises, na sinasabi,
And the Lord said to Moses,
17 Iyong salitain kay Aaron, na iyong sasabihin, Sinoman sa iyong mga binhi, sa buong panahon ng kaniyang lahi, na magkaroon ng anomang kapintasan, ay huwag lumapit na maghandog ng tinapay ng kaniyang Dios.
Say to Aaron, If a man of your family, in any generation, is damaged in body, let him not come near to make the offering of the bread of his God.
18 Sapagka't sinomang magkaroon ng kapintasan ay huwag lalapit; maging ang taong bulag, o pilay, o magkaroon ng ilong na ungod, o ang mayroong kuntil,
For any man whose body is damaged may not come near: one who is blind, or has not the use of his legs, or one who has a broken nose or any unnatural growth,
19 O ang taong magkaroon ng paang bali o kamay na bali,
Or a man with broken feet or hands,
20 O taong kuba, o unano, o magkaroon ng kapintasan sa kaniyang mata, o galisin, o langibin, o luslusin:
Or one whose back is bent, or one who is unnaturally small, or one who has a damaged eye, or whose skin is diseased, or whose sex parts are damaged;
21 Walang tao sa binhi ni Aaron na saserdote, na magkaroon ng kapintasan, na lalapit upang magharap ng mga handog sa Panginoon na pinaraan sa apoy: siya'y may kapintasan; siya'y huwag lalapit na magharap ng tinapay ng kaniyang Dios.
No man of the offspring of Aaron whose body is damaged in any way may come near to give the fire offerings of the Lord: he is damaged, he may not come near to make the offerings.
22 Kaniyang kakanin ang tinapay ng kaniyang Dios, ang pinakabanal at ang mga bagay na banal:
He may take of the bread of God, the holy and the most holy;
23 Hindi lamang siya papasok sa loob ng tabing, o lalapit man sa dambana, sapagka't may kapintasan siya; upang huwag niyang lapastanganin ang aking mga santuario: sapagka't ako ang Panginoon na nagpapaging banal sa kanila.
But he may not go inside the veil or come near the altar, because he is damaged; and he may not make my holy places common; for I the Lord have made them holy.
24 Gayon sinalita ni Moises kay Aaron at sa kaniyang mga anak, at sa lahat ng mga anak ni Israel.
These are the words which Moses said to Aaron and to his sons and to all the children of Israel.
