< Leviticus 17 >
YHWH spoke to Moses, saying,
2 “Sọ fún Aaroni àti àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ pẹ̀lú gbogbo àwọn ọmọ Israẹli: ‘Ohun tí Olúwa pàṣẹ nìyí,
"Speak to Aaron, and to his sons, and to all the children of Israel, and say to them: 'This is the thing which YHWH has commanded,
3 bí ẹnikẹ́ni nínú ìdílé Israẹli bá pa màlúù tàbí ọ̀dọ́-àgùntàn tàbí àgbò nínú ibùdó tàbí bí ó bá pa á lẹ́yìn ibùdó
Whatever man there is of the house of Israel, who kills a bull, or lamb, or goat, in the camp, or who kills it outside the camp,
4 tí kò sì mú un wá sí ibi àgọ́ ìpàdé láti fi rú ẹbọ sí Olúwa níwájú àgọ́ ìpàdé, ẹ̀bi ìtàjẹ̀ sílẹ̀ ni kí ẹ kà sí ẹni náà lọ́rùn: torí pé ó ti ta ẹ̀jẹ̀ sílẹ̀, ẹni náà ni a ó sì gé kúrò láàrín àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀.
and hasn't brought it to the door of the Tent of Meeting, so as to sacrifice it for a burnt offering or peace offering to YHWH to be acceptable as a soothing aroma, and whoever shall kill it outside, and shall not bring it to the door of the Tent of Meeting to offer it as an offering to YHWH before the tabernacle of YHWH, blood shall be imputed to that man. He has shed blood; and that man shall be cut off from among his people.
5 Èyí rí bẹ́ẹ̀ kí àwọn ọmọ Israẹli le è máa mú ẹbọ wọn tí wọn ti rú ní ìta gbangba wá sí iwájú Olúwa: wọ́n gbọdọ̀ mú un wá síwájú àlùfáà àní sí Olúwa ní ẹnu-ọ̀nà àgọ́ ìpàdé, kí wọ́n sì rú wọn gẹ́gẹ́ bí ẹbọ àlàáfíà sí Olúwa.
This is to the end that the children of Israel may bring their sacrifices, which they sacrifice in the open field, that they may bring them to YHWH, to the door of the Tent of Meeting, to the priest, and sacrifice them for sacrifices of peace offerings to YHWH.
6 Àlùfáà náà yóò sì fi ẹ̀jẹ̀ náà wọ́n ibi pẹpẹ Olúwa ní ẹnu-ọ̀nà àgọ́ ìpàdé, yóò sì sun ọ̀rá rẹ̀ ní òórùn dídùn sí Olúwa.
The priest shall sprinkle the blood on the altar of YHWH at the door of the Tent of Meeting, and burn the fat for a pleasant aroma to YHWH.
7 Nítorí náà, kí wọn má ṣe rú ẹbọ wọn sí ère ẹranko mọ́, nínú èyí tí wọ́n ti ṣe àgbèrè tọ̀ lọ. Èyí yóò sì jẹ́ ìlànà títí láé láti ìran dé ìran wọn tí ń bọ̀.’
They shall no more sacrifice their sacrifices to the goat idols, after which they play the prostitute. This shall be a statute forever to them throughout their generations.'
8 “Kí ó sọ fún wọn pé, ‘Ọkùnrin yówù kí ó jẹ́ ní ìdílé Israẹli tàbí ti àwọn àlejò tí ń gbé láàrín wọn tí ó bá rú ẹbọ sísun tàbí ṣe ẹbọ
"You shall say to them, 'Any man there is of the house of Israel, or of the strangers who live as foreigners among them, who offers a burnt offering or sacrifice,
9 tí kò sì mú un wá sí ẹnu-ọ̀nà àgọ́ ìpàdé láti fi rú ẹbọ sí Olúwa irú ẹni bẹ́ẹ̀ ni a ó gé kúrò láàrín àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀.
and doesn't bring it to the door of the Tent of Meeting, to sacrifice it to YHWH; that man shall be cut off from his people.
10 “‘Bí ẹnikẹ́ni bá jẹ ẹ̀jẹ̀ yálà nínú ìdílé Israẹli tàbí àwọn àlejò tí ń gbé láàrín wọn, Èmi yóò bínú sí irú ẹni náà tí ó jẹ ẹ̀jẹ̀, èmi yóò sì gé e kúrò láàrín àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀.
"'Any man of the house of Israel, or of the foreigners who sojourn among you, who eats any kind of blood, I will set my face against that soul who eats blood, and will cut him off from among his people.
11 Nítorí pé nínú ẹ̀jẹ̀ ni ẹ̀mí ẹ̀dá wà, èmi sì ti fi fún yín lórí pẹpẹ fún ètùtù ọkàn yín: nítorí pé ẹ̀jẹ̀ ni a fi ń ṣe ètùtù fún ẹ̀mí ènìyàn.
For the life of the flesh is in the blood; and I have given it to you on the altar to make atonement for your souls: for it is the blood that makes atonement by reason of the life.
12 Ìdí nìyí tí mo fi sọ fún àwọn ọmọ Israẹli pé, ọ̀kankan nínú yín kò gbọdọ̀ jẹ ẹ̀jẹ̀, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni àlejò kan tí ń ṣe àtìpó nínú yín kò gbọdọ̀ jẹ ẹ̀jẹ̀.
Therefore I have said to the children of Israel, "No person among you shall eat blood, neither shall any stranger who lives as a foreigner among you eat blood."
13 “‘Ẹnikẹ́ni yálà nínú àwọn ọmọ Israẹli tàbí àlejò tí ń gbé láàrín wọn, tí ó bá pa ẹranko tàbí ẹyẹ tí ó yẹ fún jíjẹ gbọdọ̀ ro ẹ̀jẹ̀ rẹ̀ sílẹ̀ kí ó sì bò ó mọ́lẹ̀.
"'Whatever man there is of the children of Israel, or of the foreigners who sojourn among you, who takes in hunting any animal or bird that may be eaten; he shall pour out its blood, and cover it with dust.
14 Torí pé ẹ̀mí gbogbo ẹ̀dá ni ẹ̀jẹ̀ rẹ̀, torí náà ni mo fi kìlọ̀ fún àwọn ọmọ Israẹli pé wọn kò gbọdọ̀ jẹ ẹ̀jẹ̀ ohun abẹ̀mí kankan, torí pé nínú ẹ̀jẹ̀ ohun abẹ̀mí wọ̀nyí ni ẹ̀mí wọn wà, ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá jẹ ẹ́ ni a ó gé kúrò.
For as to the life of all flesh, its blood is with its life: therefore I said to the children of Israel, "You shall not eat the blood of any kind of flesh; for the life of all flesh is its blood. Whoever eats it shall be cut off."
15 “‘Ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá jẹ ohun tí ó kú sílẹ̀ fúnra rẹ̀, tàbí èyí tí ẹranko búburú pa kálẹ̀ yálà onílé tàbí àlejò, ó ní láti fọ aṣọ rẹ̀. Kí ó sì fi omi wẹ ara rẹ̀, yóò sì wà ní ipò àìmọ́ títí di àṣálẹ́ lẹ́yìn èyí ni yóò tó di mímọ́.
"'Every person that eats what dies of itself, or that which is torn by animals, whether he is native-born or a foreigner, he shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the evening: then he shall be clean.
16 Ṣùgbọ́n bí ó bá kọ̀ láti wẹ ara rẹ̀ tí kò sì fọ aṣọ rẹ̀ náà: ẹ̀bi rẹ̀ yóò wà lórí ara rẹ̀.’”
But if he doesn't wash them, or bathe his flesh, then he shall bear his iniquity.'"
