«لَا يَكُونُ لِلْكَهَنَةِ ٱللَّاوِيِّينَ، كُلِّ سِبْطِ لَاوِي، قِسْمٌ وَلَا نَصِيبٌ مَعَ إِسْرَائِيلَ. يَأْكُلُونَ وَقَائِدَ ٱلرَّبِّ وَنَصِيبَهُ. ١ 1
The priests, the Levites, even the whole tribe of Levi, shall have no part nor inheritance with Israel; the burnt offerings of the Lord [are] their inheritance, they shall eat them.
فَلَا يَكُونُ لَهُ نَصِيبٌ فِي وَسَطِ إِخْوَتِهِ. ٱلرَّبُّ هُوَ نَصِيبُهُ كَمَا قَالَ لَهُ. ٢ 2
And they shall have no inheritance among their brethren; the Lord himself [is] his portion, as he said to him.
«وَهَذَا يَكُونُ حَقُّ ٱلْكَهَنَةِ مِنَ ٱلشَّعْبِ، مِنَ ٱلَّذِينَ يَذْبَحُونَ ٱلذَّبَائِحَ بَقَرًا كَانَتْ أَوْ غَنَمًا. يُعْطُونَ ٱلْكَاهِنَ ٱلسَّاعِدَ وَٱلْفَكَّيْنِ وَٱلْكِرْشَ. ٣ 3
And this [is] the due of the priests in the things coming from the people from those who offer sacrifices, whether it be a calf or a sheep; and you shall give the shoulder to the priest, and the cheeks, and the great intestine:
وَتُعْطِيهِ أَوَّلَ حِنْطَتِكَ وَخَمْرِكَ وَزَيْتِكَ، وَأَوَّلَ جَزَازِ غَنَمِكَ. ٤ 4
and the first fruits of your corn, and of your wine, and of your oil; and you shall give to him the first fruits of the fleeces of your sheep:
لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَكَ قَدِ ٱخْتَارَهُ مِنْ جَمِيعِ أَسْبَاطِكَ لِكَيْ يَقِفَ لِيَخْدِمَ بِٱسْمِ ٱلرَّبِّ، هُوَ وَبَنُوهُ كُلَّ ٱلْأَيَّامِ. ٥ 5
because the Lord has chosen him out of all your tribes, to stand before the Lord your God, to minister and bless in his name, himself and his sons among the children of Israel.
«وَإِذَا جَاءَ لَاوِيٌّ مِنْ أَحَدِ أَبْوَابِكَ مِنْ جَمِيعِ إِسْرَائِيلَ حَيْثُ هُوَ مُتَغَرِّبٌ، وَجَاءَ بِكُلِّ رَغْبَةِ نَفْسِهِ إِلَى ٱلْمَكَانِ ٱلَّذِي يَخْتَارُهُ ٱلرَّبُّ، ٦ 6
And if a Levite come from one of the cities of all the children of Israel, where he himself dwells, accordingly as his mind desires, to the place which he shall have chosen,
وَخَدَمَ بِٱسْمِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ مِثْلَ جَمِيعِ إِخْوَتِهِ ٱللَّاوِيِّينَ ٱلْوَاقِفِينَ هُنَاكَ أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ، ٧ 7
he shall minister to the name of the Lord his God, as all his brethren the Levites, who stand there present before the Lord your God.
يَأْكُلُونَ أَقْسَامًا مُتَسَاوِيَةً، عَدَا مَا يَبِيعُهُ عَنْ آبَائِهِ. ٨ 8
He shall eat an allotted portion, besides the sale of his hereditary property.
«مَتَى دَخَلْتَ ٱلْأَرْضَ ٱلَّتِي يُعْطِيكَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ، لَا تَتَعَلَّمْ أَنْ تَفْعَلَ مِثْلَ رِجْسِ أُولَئِكَ ٱلْأُمَمِ. ٩ 9
And when you shall have entered into the land which the Lord your God gives you, you shall not learn to do according to the abominations of those nations.
لَا يُوجَدْ فِيكَ مَنْ يُجِيزُ ٱبْنَهُ أَوِ ٱبْنَتَهُ فِي ٱلنَّارِ، وَلَا مَنْ يَعْرُفُ عِرَافَةً، وَلَا عَائِفٌ وَلَا مُتَفَائِلٌ وَلَا سَاحِرٌ، ١٠ 10
There shall not be found in you one who purges his son or his daughter with fire, one who uses divination, who deals with omens, and augury,
وَلَا مَنْ يَرْقِي رُقْيَةً، وَلَا مَنْ يَسْأَلُ جَانًّا أَوْ تَابِعَةً، وَلَا مَنْ يَسْتَشِيرُ ٱلْمَوْتَى. ١١ 11
a sorcerer employing incantation, one who has in him a divining spirit, and observer of signs, questioning the dead.
لِأَنَّ كُلَّ مَنْ يَفْعَلُ ذَلِكَ مَكْرُوهٌ عِنْدَ ٱلرَّبِّ. وَبِسَبَبِ هَذِهِ ٱلْأَرْجَاسِ، ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ طَارِدُهُمْ مِنْ أَمَامِكَ. ١٢ 12
For every one that does these things is an abomination to the Lord your God; for because of these abominations the Lord will destroy them from before your face.
تَكُونُ كَامِلًا لَدَى ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ. ١٣ 13
You shall be perfect before the Lord your God.
إِنَّ هَؤُلَاءِ ٱلْأُمَمَ ٱلَّذِينَ تَخْلُفُهُمْ يَسْمَعُونَ لِلْعَائِفِينَ وَٱلْعَرَّافِينَ. وَأَمَّا أَنْتَ فَلَمْ يَسْمَحْ لَكَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ هَكَذَا. ١٤ 14
For all these nations whose [land] you shall inherit, they will listen to omens and divinations; but the Lord your God has not permitted you so [to do].
«يُقِيمُ لَكَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ نَبِيًّا مِنْ وَسَطِكَ مِنْ إِخْوَتِكَ مِثْلِي. لَهُ تَسْمَعُونَ. ١٥ 15
The Lord your God shall raise up to you a prophet of your brethren, like me; him shall you hear:
حَسَبَ كُلِّ مَا طَلَبْتَ مِنَ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ فِي حُورِيبَ يَوْمَ ٱلِٱجْتِمَاعِ قَائِلًا: لَا أَعُودُ أَسْمَعُ صَوْتَ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِي وَلَا أَرَى هَذِهِ ٱلنَّارَ ٱلْعَظِيمَةَ أَيْضًا لِئَلَّا أَمُوتَ. ١٦ 16
according to all things which you did desire of the Lord your God in Choreb in the day of the assembly, saying, We will not again hear the voice of the Lord your God, and we will not any more see this great fire, and [so] we shall not die.
قَالَ لِيَ ٱلرَّبُّ: قَدْ أَحْسَنُوا فِي مَا تَكَلَّمُوا. ١٧ 17
And the Lord said to me, They have spoken rightly all that they have said to you.
أُقِيمُ لَهُمْ نَبِيًّا مِنْ وَسَطِ إِخْوَتِهِمْ مِثْلَكَ، وَأَجْعَلُ كَلَامِي فِي فَمِهِ، فَيُكَلِّمُهُمْ بِكُلِّ مَا أُوصِيهِ بِهِ. ١٨ 18
I will raise up to them a prophet of their brethren, like you; and I will put my words in his mouth, and he shall speak to them as I shall command him.
وَيَكُونُ أَنَّ ٱلْإِنْسَانَ ٱلَّذِي لَا يَسْمَعُ لِكَلَامِي ٱلَّذِي يَتَكَلَّمُ بِهِ بِٱسْمِي أَنَا أُطَالِبُهُ. ١٩ 19
And whatever man shall not listen to whatever words that prophet shall speak in my name, I will take vengeance on him.
وَأَمَّا ٱلنَّبِيُّ ٱلَّذِي يُطْغِي، فَيَتَكَلَّمُ بِٱسْمِي كَلَامًا لَمْ أُوصِهِ أَنْ يَتَكَلَّمَ بِهِ، أَوِ ٱلَّذِي يَتَكَلَّمُ بِٱسْمِ آلِهَةٍ أُخْرَى، فَيَمُوتُ ذَلِكَ ٱلنَّبِيُّ. ٢٠ 20
But the prophet whoever shall impiously speak in my name a word which I have not commanded him to speak, and whoever shall speak in the name of other gods, that prophet shall die.
وَإِنْ قُلْتَ فِي قَلْبِكَ: كَيْفَ نَعْرِفُ ٱلْكَلَامَ ٱلَّذِي لَمْ يَتَكَلَّمْ بِهِ ٱلرَّبُّ؟ ٢١ 21
But if you shall say in your heart, How shall we know the word which the Lord has not spoken?
فَمَا تَكَلَّمَ بِهِ ٱلنَّبِيُّ بِٱسْمِ ٱلرَّبِّ وَلَمْ يَحْدُثْ وَلَمْ يَصِرْ، فَهُوَ ٱلْكَلَامُ ٱلَّذِي لَمْ يَتَكَلَّمْ بِهِ ٱلرَّبُّ، بَلْ بِطُغْيَانٍ تَكَلَّمَ بِهِ ٱلنَّبِيُّ، فَلَا تَخَفْ مِنْهُ. ٢٢ 22
Whatsoever words that prophet shall speak in the name of the Lord, and they shall not come true, and not come to pass, this [is] the thing which the Lord has not spoken; that prophet has spoken wickedly: you shall not spare him.
