Leviticus 20
1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
SENYÈ a te pale avèk Moïse e te di:
2 Thus shalt thou say to the children of Israel: If any man of the children of Israel, or of the strangers, that dwell in Israel, give of his seed to the idol Moloch, dying let him die: the people of the land shall stone him.
“Ou va osi di a fis Israël yo: ‘Nenpòt moun nan fis Israël yo, oswa nan etranje ki rete an Israël yo ki bay nenpòt nan pitit li yo a Moloc, li va vrèman vin mete a lanmò. Pèp peyi a va lapide moun sa a avèk kout wòch.
3 And I will set my face against him: and I will cut him off from the midst of his people, because he hath given of his seed to Moloch, and hath defiled my sanctuary, and profaned my holy name.
Mwen va osi mete figi Mwen kont moun sa a. Mwen va koupe retire li de pèp li a, akoz li te bay nan pitit li bay Moloc pou konwonpi sanktyè Mwen an, e degrade non sen Mwen an.
4 And if the people of the land neglecting, and as it were little regarding my commandment, let alone the man that hath given of his seed to Moloch, and will not kill him:
Men si moun nan peyi a ta janm tolere moun sa a lè li bay nan pitit li yo bay Moloc, e pa mete l a lanmò,
5 I will set my face against that man, and his kindred, and will cut off both him and all that consented with him, to commit fornication with Moloch, out of the midst of their people.
alò, Mwen menm va mete figi Mwen kont moun sila a ak kont fanmi li, e Mwen va koupe retire de pèp li a; non sèlman li menm, men tout sila ki jwe pwostitiye dèyè li yo, lè yo jwe pwostitiye dèyè Moloc.
6 The soul that shall go aside after magicians, and soothsayers, and shall commit fornication with them, I will set my face against that soul, and destroy it out of the midst of its people.
“‘Epi pou moun ki vire vè moun k ap fè kontak ak mò yo, ki swiv lespri dyab yo, pou yo jwe pwostitiye avèk yo, Mwen va osi mete figi Mwen kont moun sa a e Mwen va koupe retire li de pèp li a.
7 Sanctify yourselves, and be ye holy because I am the Lord your God.
“‘Konsa, nou va konsakre nou menm e nou va rete sen, paske Mwen se SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an.
8 Keep my precepts, and do them. I am the Lord that sanctify you.
“‘Nou va kenbe règleman Mwen yo, e nou va swiv yo. Mwen se SENYÈ a ki fè nou sen an.
9 He that curseth his father, or mother, dying let him die: he hath cursed his father, and mother, let his blood be upon him.
“‘Si yon moun anmède papa li oswa manman li, li va vrèman vin mete a lanmò. Li te anmède papa li oswa manman li. Koupabilite san li rete sou li.
10 If any man commit adultery with the wife of another, and defile his neighbour’s wife, let them be put to death, both the adulterer and the adulteress.
“‘Si yon mesye fè adiltè avèk madanm a yon lòt, menm sila ki fè adiltè avèk madanm zanmi li an, adiltè la avèk fanm adiltè la va vrèman vin mete a lanmò.
11 If a man lie with his stepmother, and discover the nakedness of his father, let them both be put to death: their blood be upon them.
“‘Si yon nonm vin kouche avèk madanm a papa li, li te dekouvri nidite a papa li. Yo tou de va vin mete a lanmò. Koupabilite san yo rete sou yo.
12 If any man lie with his daughter in law, let both die, because they have done a heinous crime: their blood be upon them.
“‘Si gen yon nonm ki kouche avèk bèlfi li, tou de va vin mete a lanmò. Yo te fè ensès; koupabilite san an sou yo.
13 If any one lie with a man as with a woman, both have committed an abomination, let them be put to death: their blood be upon them.
“‘Si gen yon gason ki kouche avèk yon lòt gason, menm jan ke li ta kouche avèk yon fanm, tou de te fè yon zak abominab. Yo va vrèman vin mete a lanmò. Koupabilite san yo sou yo.
14 If any man after marrying the daughter, marry her mother, he hath done a heinous crime: he shall be burnt alive with them: neither shall so great an abomination remain in the midst of you.
“‘Si gen yon mesye ki marye avèk yon fanm ansanm ak manman li, sa se konwonpi. Yo tout va brile avèk dife pou mechanste pa rete nan mitan nou.
15 He that shall copulate with any beast or cattle, dying let him die, the beast also ye shall kill.
“‘Si gen yon mesye ki kouche avèk yon bèt, li va vrèman vin mete a lanmò. Nou va anplis touye bèt la.
16 The woman that shall lie under any beast, shall be killed together with the same: their blood be upon them.
“‘Si gen yon fanm ki vin pwoche yon bèt pou kouche avèk li, nou va touye fanm nan ansanm ak bèt la. Yo va vrèman vin mete a lanmò. Koupabilite san an sou yo.
17 If any man take his sister, the daughter of his father, or the daughter of his mother, and see her nakedness, and she behold her brother’s shame: they have committed a crime: they shall be slain, in the sight of their people, because they have discovered one another’s nakedness, and they shall bear their iniquity.
“‘Si yon mesye pran sè li, oswa fi a papa li, oswa fi a manman li, pou l wè nidite li, epi li wè nidite li, sa se yon gwo wont. Yo va koupe retire devan zye a fis pèp Israël la. Li te dekouvri nidite sè li. Li pote koupabilite pa l.
18 If any man lie with a woman in her flowers, and uncover her nakedness, and she open the fountain of her blood, both shall be destroyed out of the midst of their people.
“‘Si gen yon mesye ki kouche avèk yon fanm sou règ li e dekouvri nidite li, li te vin dekouvri flèv li, e li te fè flèv san li vin parèt. Pou sa, tou de va koupe retire de pèp pa yo a.
19 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy aunt by thy mother, and of thy aunt by thy father: he that doth this, hath uncovered the shame of his own flesh, both shall bear their iniquity.
“‘Nou pa pou dekouvri nidite sè manman nou, ni sè papa nou, paske yon nonm konsa te fè nidite a fanmi de san li vin parèt. Yo va pote koupabilite yo.
20 If any mall lie with the wife of his uncle by the father, or of his uncle by the mother, and uncover the shame of his near akin, both shall bear their sin: they shall die without children.
“‘Si gen yon mesye ki kouche avèk madanm tonton li, li te dekouvri nidite tonton li. Yo va pote peche yo. Yo va mouri san fè pitit.
21 He that marrieth his brother’s wife, doth an unlawful thing, he hath uncovered his brother’s nakedness: they shall be without children.
“‘Si gen yon mesye ki pran madanm a frè li, sa se abominab. Li te dekouvri nidite a frè li. Yo p ap janm fè pitit.
22 Keep my laws and my judgments, and do them: lest the land into which you are to enter to dwell therein, vomit you also out.
“‘Konsa, nou gen pou kenbe tout règleman ak tout òdonans Mwen yo e fè yo, pou peyi kote M ap mennen nou pou viv la, pa krache mete nou deyò.
23 Walk not after the laws of the nations, which I will cast out before you. For they have done all these things, and therefore I abhorred them.
Anplis, nou pa pou swiv koutim nasyon sa yo ke Mwen va pouse fè sòti devan nou yo, paske yo te fè tout bagay sa yo, e konsa, Mwen te vin rayi yo.
24 But to you I say: Possess their land which I will give you for an inheritance, a land flowing with milk and honey. I am the Lord your God, who have separated you from other people.
Konsa Mwen te di nou: “Nou dwe posede peyi pa yo a, e Mwen menm va bannou li pou posesyon, yon peyi k ap koule lèt ak siwo myèl.” Mwen se SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, ki te mete nou apa de lòt pèp yo.
25 Therefore do you also separate the clean beast from the unclean, and the clean fowl from the unclean: defile not your souls with beasts, or birds, or any things that move on the earth, and which I have shewn you to be unclean.
“‘Se konsa ke nou gen pou distinge antre bèt ki pwòp ak bèt ki pa pwòp, e antre zwazo ki pa pwòp ak sa ki pwòp la. Nou pa pou fè tèt nou vin abominab ni pa bèt, ni pa zwazo, ni pa sa ki trennen atè reptil ke Mwen te separe pou nou kòm pa pwòp.
26 You shall be holy unto me, because I the Lord am holy, and I have separated you from other people, that you should be mine.
Se konsa, nou va sen pou Mwen, paske Mwen, SENYÈ a, Mwen sen. Mwen te mete nou apa de lòt pèp yo pou nou kapab pa Mwen.
27 A man, or woman, in whom there is a pythonical or divining spirit, dying let them die: they shall stone them: their blood be upon them.
“‘Alò, yon nonm oswa yon fanm ki kontakte mò yo, oswa lespri yo, yo va anverite vin mete a lanmò. Yo va vin lapide avèk kout wòch. Koupabilite san rete sou yo.’”
