< اَللَّاوِيِّينَ 21 >

وَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: «كَلِّمِ ٱلْكَهَنَةَ بَنِي هَارُونَ وَقُلْ لَهُمْ: لَا يَتَنَجَّسْ أَحَدٌ مِنْكُمْ لِمَيْتٍ فِي قَوْمِهِ، ١ 1
Adonai said to Moses [Drawn out], “Speak to the priests, the sons of Aaron [Light-bringer], and say to them, ‘A priest shall not defile himself for the dead among his people;
إِلَّا لِأَقْرِبَائِهِ ٱلْأَقْرَبِ إِلَيْهِ: أُمِّهِ وَأَبِيهِ وَٱبْنِهِ وَٱبْنَتِهِ وَأَخِيهِ ٢ 2
except for his relatives that are near to him: for his mother, for his father, for his son, for his daughter, for his brother,
وَأُخْتِهِ ٱلْعَذْرَاءِ ٱلْقَرِيبَةِ إِلَيْهِ ٱلَّتِي لَمْ تَصِرْ لِرَجُلٍ. لِأَجْلِهَا يَتَنَجَّسُ. ٣ 3
and for his virgin sister who is near to him, who has had no husband; for her he may defile himself.
كَزَوْجٍ لَا يَتَنَجَّسْ بِأَهْلِهِ لِتَدْنِيسِهِ. ٤ 4
He shall not defile himself, being a chief man among his people, to profane himself.
لَا يَجْعَلُوا قَرْعَةً فِي رُؤُوسِهِمْ، وَلَا يَحْلِقُوا عَوَارِضَ لِحَاهُمْ، وَلَا يَجْرَحُوا جِرَاحَةً فِي أَجْسَادِهِمْ. ٥ 5
“‘They shall not shave their heads or shave off the corners of their beards or make any cuttings in their flesh.
مُقَدَّسِينَ يَكُونُونَ لِإِلَهِهِمْ، وَلَا يُدَنِّسُونَ ٱسْمَ إِلَهِهِمْ، لِأَنَّهُمْ يُقَرِّبُونَ وَقَائِدَ ٱلرَّبِّ طَعَامَ إِلَهِهِمْ، فَيَكُونُونَ قُدْسًا. ٦ 6
They shall be holy to their God, and not profane the name of their God; for they offer the offerings of Adonai made by fire, the bread of their God; therefore they shall be holy.
اِمْرَأَةً زَانِيَةً أَوْ مُدَنَّسَةً لَا يَأْخُذُوا، وَلَا يَأْخُذُوا ٱمْرَأَةً مُطَلَّقَةً مِنْ زَوْجِهَا. لِأَنَّهُ مُقَدَّسٌ لِإِلَهِهِ. ٧ 7
“‘They shall not marry a woman who is a prostitute, who has been profaned. They shall not marry a woman divorced from her husband; for he is holy to his God.
فَتَحْسِبُهُ مُقَدَّسًا لِأَنَّهُ يُقَرِّبُ خُبْزَ إِلَهِكَ. مُقَدَّسًا يَكُونُ عِنْدَكَ لِأَنِّي قُدُّوسٌ أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ مُقَدِّسُكُمْ. ٨ 8
You shall sanctify him therefore; for he offers the bread of your God. He shall be holy to you; for I Adonai, who sanctify you, am holy.
وَإِذَا تَدَنَّسَتِ ٱبْنَةُ كَاهِنٍ بِٱلزِّنَى فَقَدْ دَنَّسَتْ أَبَاهَا. بِٱلنَّارِ تُحْرَقُ. ٩ 9
“‘The daughter of any priest, if she profanes herself by playing the prostitute, she profanes her father. She shall be burned with fire.
«وَٱلْكَاهِنُ ٱلْأَعْظَمُ بَيْنَ إِخْوَتِهِ ٱلَّذِي صُبَّ عَلَى رَأْسِهِ دُهْنُ ٱلْمَسْحَةِ، وَمُلِئَتْ يَدُهُ لِيَلْبَسَ ٱلثِّيَابَ، لَا يَكْشِفُ رَأْسَهُ، وَلَا يَشُقُّ ثِيَابَهُ، ١٠ 10
“‘He who is the high priest among his brothers, upon whose head the anointing oil is poured, and that is consecrated to put on the garments, shall not let the hair of his head hang loose, or tear his clothes.
وَلَا يَأْتِي إِلَى نَفْسٍ مَيْتَةٍ، وَلَا يَتَنَجَّسُ لِأَبِيهِ أَوْ أُمِّهِ، ١١ 11
He must not go in to any dead body, or defile himself for his father, or for his mother.
وَلَا يَخْرُجُ مِنَ ٱلْمَقْدِسِ لِئَلَّا يُدَنِّسَ مَقْدِسَ إِلَهِهِ، لِأَنَّ إِكْلِيلَ دُهْنِ مَسْحَةِ إِلَهِهِ عَلَيْهِ. أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ. ١٢ 12
He shall not go out of the sanctuary, nor profane the sanctuary of his God; for the crown of the anointing oil of his God is upon him. I am Adonai.
هَذَا يَأْخُذُ ٱمْرَأَةً عَذْرَاءَ. ١٣ 13
“‘He shall take a wife in her virginity.
أَمَّا ٱلْأَرْمَلَةُ وَٱلْمُطَلَّقَةُ وَٱلْمُدَنَّسَةُ وَٱلزَّانِيَةُ فَمِنْ هَؤُلَاءِ لَا يَأْخُذُ، بَلْ يَتَّخِذُ عَذْرَاءَ مِنْ قَوْمِهِ ٱمْرَأَةً. ١٤ 14
A widow, or one divorced, or a woman who has been defiled, or a prostitute, these he shall not marry: but a virgin of his own people shall he take as a wife.
وَلَا يُدَنِّسُ زَرْعَهُ بَيْنَ شَعْبِهِ لِأَنِّي أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ مُقَدِّسُهُ». ١٥ 15
He shall not profane his offspring among his people, for I am Adonai who sanctifies him.’”
وَكَلَّمَ ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى قَائِلًا: ١٦ 16
Adonai spoke to Moses [Drawn out], saying,
«كَلِّمْ هَارُونَ قَائِلًا: إِذَا كَانَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ نَسْلِكَ فِي أَجْيَالِهِمْ فِيهِ عَيْبٌ فَلَا يَتَقَدَّمْ لِيُقَرِّبَ خُبْزَ إِلَهِهِ. ١٧ 17
“Say to Aaron [Light-bringer], ‘None of your offspring throughout their generations who has a defect may approach to offer the bread of his God.
لِأَنَّ كُلَّ رَجُلٍ فِيهِ عَيْبٌ لَا يَتَقَدَّمْ. لَا رَجُلٌ أَعْمَى وَلَا أَعْرَجُ، وَلَا أَفْطَسُ وَلَا زَوَائِدِيٌّ، ١٨ 18
For whatever man he is that has a defect, he shall not draw near: a blind man, or a lame, or he who has a flat nose, or any deformity,
وَلَا رَجُلٌ فِيهِ كَسْرُ رِجْلٍ أَوْ كَسْرُ يَدٍ، ١٩ 19
or a man who has an injured foot, or an injured hand,
وَلَا أَحْدَبُ وَلَا أَكْشَمُ، وَلَا مَنْ فِي عَيْنِهِ بَيَاضٌ، وَلَا أَجْرَبُ وَلَا أَكْلَفُ، وَلَا مَرْضُوضُ ٱلْخُصَى. ٢٠ 20
or hunchbacked, or a dwarf, or one who has a defect in his eye, or an itching disease, or scabs, or who has damaged testicles.
كُلُّ رَجُلٍ فِيهِ عَيْبٌ مِنْ نَسْلِ هَارُونَ ٱلْكَاهِنِ لَا يَتَقَدَّمْ لِيُقَرِّبَ وَقَائِدَ ٱلرَّبِّ. فِيهِ عَيْبٌ لَا يَتَقَدَّمْ لِيُقَرِّبَ خُبْزَ إِلَهِهِ. ٢١ 21
No man of the offspring of Aaron [Light-bringer] the priest who has a defect shall come near to offer the offerings of Adonai made by fire. Since he has a defect, he shall not come near to offer the bread of his God.
خُبْزَ إِلَهِهِ مِنْ قُدْسِ ٱلْأَقْدَاسِ وَمِنَ ٱلْقُدْسِ يَأْكُلُ. ٢٢ 22
He shall eat the bread of his God, both of the most holy, and of the holy.
لَكِنْ إِلَى ٱلْحِجَابِ لَا يَأْتِي، وَإِلَى ٱلْمَذْبَحِ لَا يَقْتَرِبُ، لِأَنَّ فِيهِ عَيْبًا، لِئَلَّا يُدَنِّسَ مَقْدِسِي، لِأَنِّي أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ مُقَدِّسُهُمْ». ٢٣ 23
He shall not come near to the veil, nor come near to the altar, because he has a defect; that he may not profane my sanctuaries, for I am Yahweh M'Kaddesham [Yahweh our Santifier / He sustains breathing who makes them holy].’”
فَكَلَّمَ مُوسَى هَارُونَ وَبَنِيهِ وَكُلَّ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ. ٢٤ 24
So Moses [Drawn out] spoke to Aaron [Light-bringer], and to his sons, and to all the children of Israel [God prevails].
