Leviticus 20
1 And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying:
Yahvé habló a Moisés y dijo:
2 Moreover, thou shalt say to the children of Israel: Whosoever he be of the children of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn in Israel, that giveth of his seed unto Molech; he shall surely be put to death; the people of the land shall stone him with stones.
“Di a los hijos de Israel: Cualquier hombre de entre los hijos de Israel o de los extranjeros que habitan en Israel, si entregare uno de sus hijos a Moloc, será muerto irremisiblemente; el pueblo del país lo apedreará.
3 I also will set My face against that man, and will cut him off from among his people, because he hath given of his seed unto Molech, to defile My sanctuary, and to profane My holy name.
Yo mismo volveré mi rostro contra el tal hombre y lo extirparé de en medio de su pueblo, por haber dado un hijo suyo a Moloc, contaminando mi Santuario y profanando mi santo nombre.
4 And if the people of the land do at all hide their eyes from that man, when he giveth of his seed unto Molech, and put him not to death;
Si el pueblo del país apartare sus ojos de ese hombre que dio uno de sus hijos a Moloc, y no le diere muerte,
5 then I will set My face against that man, and against his family, and will cut him off, and all that go astray after him, to go astray after Molech, from among their people.
yo mismo volveré mi rostro contra aquel hombre y contra su familia, y le extirparé de entre su pueblo, a él y a todos los que como él se prostituyan a Moloc.
6 And the soul that turneth unto the ghosts, and unto the familiar spirits, to go astray after them, I will even set My face against that soul, and will cut him off from among his people.
Si una persona consultare a los que evocan a los muertos, y a los que adivinan, fornicando en pos de ellos, Yo volveré mi rostro contra ella y la extirparé de en medio de su pueblo.
7 Sanctify yourselves therefore, and be ye holy; for I am the LORD your God.
Santificaos y sed santos; porque Yo soy Yahvé, vuestro Dios.
8 And keep ye My statutes, and do them: I am the LORD who sanctify you.
Guardad mis leyes y cumplidlas. Yo soy Yahvé quien os santifico.
9 For whatsoever man there be that curseth his father or his mother shall surely be put to death; he hath cursed his father or his mother; his blood shall be upon him.
Quien maldiga a su padre o a su madre será muerto sin remedio; ha maldecido a su padre o a su madre; recaiga sobre él su sangre.
10 And the man that committeth adultery with another man's wife, even he that committeth adultery with his neighbour's wife, both the adulterer and the adulteress shall surely be put to death.
El hombre que cometa adulterio con la mujer de otro, con la mujer de su prójimo, ambos serán muertos irremisiblemente, tanto el adúltero como la adúltera.
11 And the man that lieth with his father's wife — he hath uncovered his father's nakedness — both of them shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.
El que se acueste con la mujer de su padre, descubre la desnudez de su padre; ambos serán muertos irremisiblemente; recaiga sobre ellos su sangre.
12 And if a man lie with his daughter-in-law, both of them shall surely be put to death; they have wrought corruption; their blood shall be upon them.
El hombre que se acueste con su nuera, mueran ambos; han hecho cosa abominable; su sangre recaiga sobre ellos.
13 And if a man lie with mankind, as with womankind, both of them have committed abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.
El que se acueste con varón, como se hace con mujer; ambos han cometido abominación: mueran irremisiblemente; su sangre recaiga sobre ellos.
14 And if a man take with his wife also her mother, it is wickedness: they shall be burnt with fire, both he and they; that there be no wickedness among you.
Si uno toma por mujeres a la hija y a la madre, es un crimen. Serán entregados a las llamas tanto él como ellas, para que no haya tal crimen en medio de vosotros.
15 And if a man lie with a beast, he shall surely be put to death; and ye shall slay the beast.
El que se ayuntare con bestia, muera irremisiblemente. Mataréis también la bestia.
16 And if a woman approach unto any beast, and lie down thereto, thou shalt kill the woman, and the beast: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.
Si una mujer se acerca a una bestia para ayuntarse con ella, matarás a la mujer y a la bestia. Morirán irremisiblemente; recaiga sobre ellos su sangre.
17 And if a man shall take his sister, his father's daughter, or his mother's daughter, and see her nakedness, and she see his nakedness: it is a shameful thing; and they shall be cut off in the sight of the children of their people: he hath uncovered his sister's nakedness; he shall bear his iniquity.
El que tomare a su hermana, hija de su padre o hija de su madre, viendo así la desnudez de ella, y ella viendo la desnudez de él, es cosa vergonzosa. Se les dará muerte en presencia de los hijos de su pueblo; ha descubierto la desnudez de su hermana; llevará su iniquidad.
18 And if a man shall lie with a woman having her sickness, and shall uncover her nakedness — he hath made naked her fountain, and she hath uncovered the fountain of her blood — both of them shall be cut off from among their people.
El que se acostare con mujer que padece la indisposición mensual, descubriendo la desnudez de ella, ha descubierto su flujo y ella también ha descubierto el flujo de su sangre. Ambos serán extirpados de entre su pueblo.
19 And thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy mother's sister, nor of thy father's sister; for he hath made naked his near kin; they shall bear their iniquity.
No descubras la desnudez de la hermana de tu madre, ni de la hermana de tu padre, porque es desnudar su propia carne; por eso llevarán su iniquidad.
20 And if a man shall lie with his uncle's wife — he hath uncovered his uncle's nakedness — they shall bear their sin; they shall die childless.
El que se acostare con su tía, descubre la desnudez de su tía. Llevarán su pecado; morirán sin prole.
21 And if a man shall take his brother's wife, it is impurity: he hath uncovered his brother's nakedness; they shall be childless.
Si uno se casa con la mujer de su hermano, hace cosa impura, pues descubre la desnudez de su hermano; quedarán sin hijos.
22 Ye shall therefore keep all My statutes, and all Mine ordinances, and do them, that the land, whither I bring you to dwell therein, vomit you not out.
Guardad, pues, todas mis leyes y todos mis preceptos y cumplidlos, no sea que os vomite el país adonde os llevo para habitarlo.
23 And ye shall not walk in the customs of the nation, which I am casting out before you; for they did all these things, and therefore I abhorred them.
No caminéis según las costumbres de los pueblos que Yo voy a expulsar de vuestra vista; pues por haber hecho ellos todas esas cosas les tengo asco.
24 But I have said unto you: 'Ye shall inherit their land, and I will give it unto you to possess it, a land flowing with milk and honey.' I am the LORD your God, who have set you apart from the peoples.
Mas a vosotros os he dicho: Poseeréis su tierra, la que Yo os daré en herencia, tierra que mana leche y miel. Yo soy Yahvé, vuestro Dios, que os he separado de los demás pueblos.
25 Ye shall therefore separate between the clean beast and the unclean, and between the unclean fowl and the clean; and ye shall not make your souls detestable by beast, or by fowl, or by any thing wherewith the ground teemeth, which I have set apart for you to hold unclean.
Habéis de hacer distinción entre animales puros e impuros, y entre aves impuras y puras; y no os contaminéis, ni con animales, ni con aves, ni con lo que anda arrastrándose por el suelo. Todas esas cosas os he señalado como impuras.
26 And ye shall be holy unto Me; for I the LORD am holy, and have set you apart from the peoples, that ye should be Mine.
Sed, pues, santos para Mí, porque Yo, Yahvé, soy santo; y os he elegido de entre los pueblos, para que seáis míos.
27 A man also or a woman that divineth by a ghost or a familiar spirit, shall surely be put to death; they shall stone them with stones; their blood shall be upon them.
El hombre o la mujer que evoque a los muertos o que se dedique a la adivinación muera irremisiblemente; serán apedreados; recaiga sobre ellos su sangre.”
