Leviticus 18
1 Yahweh said to Moses,
Alò SENYÈ a te pale avèk Moïse. Li te di:
2 “Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them, ‘I am Yahweh your God.
“Pale avèk fis Israël yo. Di yo: ‘Mwen se SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an.
3 You shall not do as they do in the land of Egypt, where you lived. You shall not do as they do in the land of Canaan, where I am bringing you. You shall not follow their statutes.
Pinga nou fè sa ki te fèt nan peyi Égypte kote nou te rete a, ni pinga nou fè sa ki fèt nan peyi Canaan kote Mwen ap mennen nou an. Pinga nou mache nan règleman pa yo.
4 You shall do my ordinances. You shall keep my statutes and walk in them. I am Yahweh your God.
Se pou nou aji selon jijman pa M e kenbe règleman pa M, pou mache nan yo. Mwen se SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an.
5 You shall therefore keep my statutes and my ordinances, which if a man does, he shall live in them. I am Yahweh.
Konsa nou va kenbe règleman Mwen yo, ak jijman Mwen yo, pa sila yon nonm kapab viv si li fè yo. Mwen se SENYÈ a.
6 “‘None of you shall approach any close relatives, to uncover their nakedness: I am Yahweh.
“‘Pinga okenn nan nou pwoche okenn fanmi de san nou pou dekouvri nidite li: Mwen se SENYÈ a.
7 “‘You shall not uncover the nakedness of your father, nor the nakedness of your mother: she is your mother. You shall not uncover her nakedness.
“‘Nou pa pou dekouvri nidite papa nou, ni nidite a manman nou. Li se manman nou; nou pa pou dekouvri nidite li.
8 “‘You shall not uncover the nakedness of your father’s wife. It is your father’s nakedness.
“‘Nou pa pou dekouvri nidite madanm papa nou. Li se nidite a papa nou.
9 “‘You shall not uncover the nakedness of your sister, the daughter of your father, or the daughter of your mother, whether born at home or born abroad.
“‘Nidite a sè nou, oswa fi papa nou, oswa fi manman nou, kit li fèt nan kay la, kit li fèt deyò; nidite pa yo, nou pa pou dekouvri yo.
10 “‘You shall not uncover the nakedness of your son’s daughter, or of your daughter’s daughter, even their nakedness; for theirs is your own nakedness.
“‘Nidite fi a fis nou, oswa fi a fi nou; nidite yo, nou pa pou dekouvri yo; paske nidite pa yo se pa nou.
11 “‘You shall not uncover the nakedness of your father’s wife’s daughter, conceived by your father, since she is your sister.
“‘Nidite a pitit fi madanm a papa nou, fèt pou papa nou, li se sè nou, nou pa pou dekouvri nidite li.
12 “‘You shall not uncover the nakedness of your father’s sister. She is your father’s near kinswoman.
“‘Nou pa pou dekouvri nidite sè papa nou. Li se pwòp relasyon san papa nou.
13 “‘You shall not uncover the nakedness of your mother’s sister, for she is your mother’s near kinswoman.
“‘Nou pa pou dekouvri nidite sè manman nou, paske li se pwòp san manman nou.
14 “‘You shall not uncover the nakedness of your father’s brother. You shall not approach his wife. She is your aunt.
“‘Nou pa pou dekouvri nidite frè papa nou. Nou pa pou pwoche madanm li. Li se matant nou.
15 “‘You shall not uncover the nakedness of your daughter-in-law. She is your son’s wife. You shall not uncover her nakedness.
“‘Nou pa pou dekouvri nidite bèlfi nou. Li se madanm a fis nou. Nou pa pou dekouvri nidite li.
16 “‘You shall not uncover the nakedness of your brother’s wife. It is your brother’s nakedness.
“‘Nou pa pou dekouvri nidite madanm frè nou. Li se nidite a frè nou.
17 “‘You shall not uncover the nakedness of a woman and her daughter. You shall not take her son’s daughter, or her daughter’s daughter, to uncover her nakedness. They are near kinswomen. It is wickedness.
“‘Nou pa pou dekouvri nidite a yon fanm avèk fi li. Ni nou pa pou pran fi a fis li, ni fi a fi li, pou dekouvri nidite li. Yo se relasyon san. Sa vrèman lèd.
18 “‘You shall not take a wife in addition to her sister, to be a rival, to uncover her nakedness, while her sister is still alive.
“‘Nou pa pou marye yon fanm ansanm avèk sè li pou fè jalouzi pandan sè li toujou vivan an, pou dekouvri nidite li.
19 “‘You shall not approach a woman to uncover her nakedness, as long as she is impure by her uncleanness.
“‘Osi nou pa pou pwoche yon fanm pou dekouvri nidite li pandan règ li fè l pa pwòp.
20 “‘You shall not lie carnally with your neighbor’s wife, and defile yourself with her.
“‘Nou pa pou fè zak seksyèl avèk madanm vwazen nou pou nou ta vin konwonpi ansanm avèk li.
21 “‘You shall not give any of your children as a sacrifice to Molech. You shall not profane the name of your God. I am Yahweh.
“‘Nou pa pou bay okenn nan pitit nou yo pou ofri bay Moloc. Nou pa pou degrade non Bondye. Mwen se SENYÈ a.
22 “‘You shall not lie with a man as with a woman. That is detestable.
“‘Nou pa pou kouche avèk yon gason jan yon moun ta kouche avèk yon fanm. Li se yon abominasyon.
23 “‘You shall not lie with any animal to defile yourself with it. No woman may give herself to an animal, to lie down with it: it is a perversion.
“‘Osi, nou pa pou fè zak seksyèl avèk okenn bèt pou nou ta vin degrade avèk li. Ni okenn fanm pa pou kanpe devan yon bèt pou kwaze avèk li. Sa se yon pèvèsyon.
24 “‘Don’t defile yourselves in any of these things; for in all these the nations which I am casting out before you were defiled.
“‘Pa konwonpi tèt nou avèk okenn nan bagay sa yo; paske, se pou tout bagay sa yo, nasyon ke Mwen ap mete deyò devan nou yo, te vin konwonpi.
25 The land was defiled. Therefore I punished its iniquity, and the land vomited out her inhabitants.
Paske peyi a gen tan vin konwonpi. Pou sa, Mwen te fè pinisyon li rive sou li, jiskaske peyi a vin krache moun ki rete la yo, mete yo deyò.
26 You therefore shall keep my statutes and my ordinances, and shall not do any of these abominations; neither the native-born, nor the stranger who lives as a foreigner among you
Men pou nou, se pou nou kenbe règleman Mwen yo, jijman Mwen yo, e pa fè okenn nan abominasyon sa yo, ni moun peyi a, ni etranje ki viv pami nou yo
27 (for the men of the land that were before you had done all these abominations, and the land became defiled),
(paske moun peyi a ki te devan nou yo, te fè tout abominasyon sa yo, e peyi a te vin konwonpi);
28 that the land not vomit you out also, when you defile it, as it vomited out the nation that was before you.
pou peyi a pa krache mete nou deyò, si nou ta vin konwonpi li, tankou li te krache mete deyò nasyon ki te devan nou yo.
29 “‘For whoever shall do any of these abominations, even the souls that do them shall be cut off from among their people.
“‘Paske nenpòt moun ki fè okenn nan abominasyon sa yo, moun sa yo va vin koupe retire de pèp li a.
30 Therefore you shall keep my requirements, that you do not practice any of these abominable customs which were practiced before you, and that you do not defile yourselves with them. I am Yahweh your God.’”
Konsa, se pou nou kenbe lòd Mwen, pou nou pa pratike okenn nan abitid abominab ki te konn fèt avan nou yo, pou nou pa konwonpi tèt nou avèk yo. Mwen se SENYÈ a, Bondye Nou an.’”
