Leviticus 19
1 The Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
Seyè a pale ak Moyiz, li di l' konsa:
2 Speak to all the congregation of the children of Israel, and thou shalt say to them: Be ye holy, because I the Lord your God am holy.
-Pale ak tout moun ki fè pati pèp Izrayèl la. W'a di yo: Se pou nou viv apa pou mwen paske mwen menm, Seyè a, Bondye nou an, mwen se yon Bondye apa.
3 Let every one fear his father, and his mother. Keep my sabbaths. I am the Lord your God.
Se pou nou tout respekte manman ak papa nou. Se pou nou respekte regleman jou repo mwen yo. Se mwen menm ki Seyè a, Bondye nou an!
4 Turn ye not to idols, nor make to yourselves molten gods. I am the Lord your God.
Pa janm vire do ban mwen pou n' al sèvi zidòl. Piga nou janm fonn metal pou fè estati ki pou sèvi nou bondye. Se mwen menm ki Seyè a, Bondye nou an!
5 If ye offer in sacrifice a peace offering to the Lord, that he may be favourable,
Lè n'ap touye bèt pou fè ofrann pou di Seyè a mèsi, se pou nou fè l' jan mwen mande l' la pou m' ka asepte l' nan men nou.
6 You shall eat it on the same day it was offered, and the next day: and whatsoever shall be left until the third day, you shall burn with fire.
Se pou nou manje vyann bèt yo ofri ban mwen an menm jou a, osinon nan denmen. Men, sou twazyèm jou a, tout sa ki rete nan vyann lan, se pou nou boule l'.
7 If after two days ally man eat thereof, he shall be profane and guilty of impiety:
Paske si nou manje l' sou twazyèm jou a, se yon manje gate li ye! Seyè a p'ap asepte l' nan men nou.
8 And shall bear his iniquity, because he hath defiled the holy thing of the Lord, and that soul shall perish from among his people.
Se poutèt sa, tout moun ki va manje yon vyann konsa va gen pou peye pou sa l' fè a, paske li pa respekte bagay yo te mete apa pou mwen. Moun konsa se pou nou wete yo nan mitan pèp mwen an.
9 When thou reapest the corn of thy land, thou shalt not cut down all that is on the face of the earth to the very ground: nor shalt thou gather the ears that remain.
Lè n'ap ranmase rekòt nan jaden nou, se pa pou nou ranmase sa ki toupre lizyè jaden an, ni nou pa bezwen tounen dèyè pou nou ranmase ti grenn ki te tonbe atè.
10 Neither shalt thou gather the bunches and grapes that fall down in thy vineyard, but shalt leave them to the poor and the strangers to take. I am the Lord your God.
Nou pa bezwen tounen nan jaden rezen an pou nou ranmase dènye ti grap rezen yo te bliye, osinon pou nou ranmase ti grenn rezen ki te tonbe atè. N'a kite sa pou moun peyi a ki pa gen anyen, ak pou moun lòt nasyon k'ap viv nan mitan nou yo. Se mwen menm ki Seyè a, Bondye nou an!
11 You shall not steal. You shall not lie, neither shall any man deceive his neighbour.
Piga nou pran sa ki pa pou nou. Piga nou yonn twonpe lòt. Piga nou bay frè parèy nou manti.
12 Thou shalt not swear falsely by my name, nor profane the name of thy God. I am the Lord.
Piga nou pran non m' pou fè sèman pou twonpe moun. Si nou fè sa, se derespekte n'ap derespekte non Bondye nou an. Se mwen menm ki Seyè a!
13 Thou shalt not calumniate thy neighbour, nor oppress him by violence. The wages of him that hath been hired by thee shall not abide with thee until the morning.
Piga nou pwofite sou moun menm ras ak nou. Lè lè pou nou peye moun ki travay pou nou an rive, peye l' lajan l'. Piga nou voye l' pou denmen maten.
14 Thou shalt not speak evil of the deaf, nor put a stumblingblock before the blind: but thou shalt fear the Lord thy God, because I am the Lord.
Piga ou madichonnen moun soud. Piga ou mete ankenn bagay sou chemen moun avèg pou fè yo tonbe. Se pou nou gen krentif pou mwen. Se mwen menm ki Seyè a!
15 Thou shalt not do that which is unjust, nor judge unjustly. Respect not the person of the poor, nor honour the countenance of the mighty. But judge thy neighbour according to justice.
Piga nou fè lenjistis lè nou nan tribinal. Piga nou fè patipri pou pòv. Piga nou achte figi grannèg. N'a rann jistis pou tout frè parèy nou san fè paspouki.
16 Thou shalt not be a detractor nor a whisperer among the people. Thou shalt not stand against the blood of thy neighbour. I am the Lord.
Pa mache bay manti sou moun menm ras avèk nou. Piga nou kanpe pou fè yo touye san rezon yon moun menm ras avèk nou. Se mwen menm ki Seyè a!
17 Thou shalt not hate thy brother in thy heart, but reprove him openly, lest thou incur sin through him.
Piga nou kenbe frè nou nan kè. Si yo gen kichòy avèk nou, regle sa la pou la. Konsa, yo p'ap lakòz nou tonbe nan peche.
18 Seek not revenge, nor be mindful of the injury of thy citizens. Thou shalt love thy friend as thyself. I am the Lord.
Piga nou tire revanj sou pesonn. Piga nou kenbe moun menm ras ak nou nan kè, men se pou nou renmen yo tankou nou renmen pwòp tèt pa nou. Se mwen menm ki Seyè a!
19 Keep ye my laws. Thou shalt not make thy cattle to gender with beasts of any other kind. Thou shalt not sow thy field with different seeds. Thou shalt not wear a garment that is woven of two sorts.
Se pou nou kenbe lòd mwen ban nou yo. Piga nou kwaze de zannimo ki pa menm kalite. Piga nou plante de kalite plant anmenmtan nan jaden nou. Piga nou mete sou nou rad depaman.
20 If a man carnally lie with a woman that is a bondservant and marriageable, and yet not redeemed with a price, nor made free: they both shall be scourged, and they shall not be put to death, because she was not a free woman.
Lè yon moun te gen tan pwomèt vann yon esklav fi bay yon nonm pou madanm, men lòt nonm lan poko peye pou esklav la, ni li menm li poko ba li libète l', si li kouche fi a, se pou yo peni yo san yo pa bezwen touye yo, paske fanm lan te esklav li toujou.
21 And for his trespass he shall offer a ram to the Lord, at the door of the tabernacle of the testimony:
Nonm lan va mennen yon belye mouton devan pòt Tant Randevou a, l'a ofri l' bay Seyè a pou peye pou sa l' fè a.
22 And the priest shall pray for him and for his sin before the Lord, and he shall have mercy on him, and the sin shall be forgiven.
Prèt la va pran belye mouton an, l'a fè sèvis pou l' mande Bondye gras pou peche li te fè a epi Bondye va padonnen l' sa.
23 When you shall be come into the land, and shall have planted in it fruit trees, you shall take away the firstfruits of them: the fruit that comes forth shall be unclean to you, neither shall you eat of them.
Le n'a antre nan peyi Kanaran an, apre n'a fin plante tout kalite pyebwa ki ka donnen, n'a konsidere rekòt twa premye lanne yo tankou bagay ki pa bon pou nou manje. Pandan twazan, piga nou manje anyen nan rekòt la.
24 But in the fourth year, all their fruit shall be sanctified, to the praise of the Lord.
Lè katriyèm lanne a vin rive, n'a pran tout rekòt katriyèm lanne a, n'a ofri l' ban mwen, mwen menm Seyè a, pou nou moutre jan nou genyen m' rekonesans.
25 And in the fifth year you shall eat the fruits thereof, gathering the increase thereof. I am the Lord your God.
Men sou senkyèm lanne a, nou ka manje donn yo. Si nou fè sa konsa, pyebwa nou yo va donnen pi plis toujou. Se mwen menm ki Seyè a, Bondye nou an!
26 You shall not eat with blood. You shall not divine nor observe dreams.
Piga nou manje ankenn vyann ak tout san li ladan l'. Piga nou chache konnen davans bagay ki gen pou rive nou nan lavi. Pa etidye pozisyon zetwal pou chache konnen sa ki pral rive sou latè.
27 Nor shall you cut your hair roundwise: nor shave your beard.
Lè nou gen moun mouri, piga nou koupe pafouten nou raz, piga nou taye pwent bab nou,
28 You shall not make any cuttings in your flesh, for the dead, neither shall you make in yourselves any figures or marks: I am the Lord.
piga nou make kò nou avèk kout kouto, ni piga nou fè desen ak lank sou kò nou. Se mwen menm ki Seyè a!
29 Make not thy daughter a common strumpet, lest the land be defiled, and filled with wickedness.
Piga nou avili pitit fi nou yo pou nou voye yo fè jennès nan tanp zidòl yo. Si nou fè sa, tout peyi a va vire al jwenn zidòl yo. Lè sa a, tout moun va lage kò yo nan fè sa ki mal.
30 Keep ye my sabbaths, and reverence my sanctuary. I am the Lord.
Se pou nou respekte regleman jou repo mwen yo. Se pou nou respekte kay ki apa pou mwen an. Se mwen menm ki Seyè a!
31 Go not aside after wizards, neither ask any thing of soothsayers, to be defiled by them: I am the Lord your God.
Piga n' al konsilte moun k'ap rele mò nan tab tounant osinon moun k'ap fè divinò. Si nou fè sa, n'ap tounen tankou moun sa yo, nou p'ap nan kondisyon pou fè sèvis pou mwen. Se mwen menm ki Seyè a, Bondye nou an!
32 Rise up before the hoary head, and honour the person of the aged man: and fear the Lord thy God. I am the Lord.
Toujou leve kanpe devan granmoun cheve blan. Respekte figi vye granmoun, paske nou gen krentif pou mwen menm, Bondye nou an. Se mwen menm ki Seyè a!
33 If a stranger dwell in your land, and abide among you, do not upbraid him:
Piga nou maltrete moun lòt nasyon ki vin rete nan peyi a ansanm ak nou.
34 But let him be among you as one of the same country: and you shall love him as yourselves: for you were strangers in the land of Egypt. I am the Lord your God.
Se pou nou aji ak yo menm jan nou gen pou nou aji ak moun natif natal peyi a. Se pou nou renmen yo tankou nou renmen pwòp tèt pa nou. Pa bliye nou menm tou yon lè nou te rete nan peyi Lejip ki pa t' peyi pa nou! Se mwen menm ki Seyè a, Bondye nou an!
35 Do not any unjust thing in judgment, in rule, in weight, or in measure.
Piga nou fè lenjistis nan tribinal. Piga nou twonpe moun lè n'ap mezire longè yon bagay, lè n'ap peze nan balans, lè n'ap mezire pa mamit.
36 Let the balance be just and the weights equal, the bushel just, and the sextary equal. I am the Lord your God, that brought you out of the land of Egypt.
N'a toujou gen bon balans, bon pwa, bon lòn, bon mezi. Se mwen menm ki Seyè a, Bondye nou an. Se mwen menm ki te fè nou soti kite peyi Lejip!
37 Keep all my precepts, and all my judgments, and do them. I am the Lord.
Se pou nou kenbe tout lòd ak tout kòmandman mwen ban nou yo. Se pou nou swiv yo. Se mwen menm ki Seyè a!
