< Leviticus 10 >

1 [Two of] Aaron’s sons, Nadab and Abihu, took the pans in which they burned incense. They put some burning coals in them and put incense on top of the coals, but this fire was not acceptable [to Yahweh] because it was not the kind that he had commanded them to burn.
And they took [the] sons of Aaron Nadab and Abihu each censer his and they put in them fire and they placed on it incense and they presented before Yahweh fire strange which not he had commanded them.
2 So suddenly a fire from Yahweh appeared and burned them up [DOU] in the presence of Yahweh.
And it went out fire from to before Yahweh and it consumed them and they died before Yahweh.
3 Then Moses/I said to Aaron, “That is what Yahweh predicted. He said, ‘Those priests who come near to me, I will show them that they must (respect me/treat me as being holy); in the presence of all the people I am the one who must be honored.’” But Aaron said nothing.
And he said Moses to Aaron it [is that] which he spoke Yahweh - saying in midst my I will show myself holy and on [the] face of all the people I will gain glory and he was silent Aaron.
4 Then Moses/I summoned Mishael and Elzaphan, who were the sons of Aaron’s uncle Uzziel, and said to them, “Take [the corpses of] your cousins outside the camp, away from the front of the Sacred Tent.”
And he summoned Moses Mishael and Elzaphan [the] sons of Uzziel [the] uncle of Aaron and he said to them draw near carry relatives your from with [the] face of the holy place to from [the] outside of the camp.
5 So they carried the corpses, which still had their special gowns on, outside the camp, [and buried them].
And they drew near and they carried them in tunics their to from [the] outside of the camp just as he had spoken Moses.
6 Then Moses/I said to Aaron and his [other two] sons Eleazar and Ithamar, “[You are sad because Nadab and Abihu died, but you must act like you always do]. Do not allow the hair on your [heads] to remain uncombed, and do not tear your clothes. But your relatives and all your fellow Israelis are allowed to mourn for those whom Yahweh destroyed by fire.
And he said Moses to Aaron and to Eleazar and to Ithamar - sons his heads your may not you let loose - and garments your not you must tear and not you will die and towards all the congregation he will be angry and relatives your all [the] house of Israel they will weep for the burning which he has burned Yahweh.
7 But you must not leave the entrance of the Sacred Tent [to join those who are mourning], because if you do that, you also will die, and Yahweh will punish [MTY] all the people of Israel. Do not forget that Yahweh has set you apart [MTY] to work for him here, [and he does not want you to become defiled by touching a corpse].” So they did what Moses/I told them to do.
And from [the] entrance of [the] tent of meeting not you must go out lest you should die for [the] oil of [the] anointing of Yahweh [is] on you and they did according to [the] word of Moses.
8 Then Yahweh said to Aaron,
And he spoke Yahweh to Aaron saying.
9 “You and your [two] sons [who are still alive] must not drink wine or other fermented drinks before you enter the Sacred Tent; if you do that, you will die. That is a command that you and your descendants must obey forever.
Wine and strong drink may not you drink - you - and sons your with you when go you into [the] tent of meeting and not you will die a statute of perpetuity to generations your.
10 You must do that in order to learn what things are holy and what things are (not holy/common), and [from the things that are not holy] you must learn what things are acceptable to me and what things are not.
And to separate between the holy thing and between the profane thing and between the unclean [thing] and between the clean [thing].
11 And you must teach to the Israeli people all the laws that I gave to the Israeli people by telling them to Moses.”
And to teach [the] people of Israel all the statutes which he has spoken Yahweh to them by [the] hand of Moses.
12 Moses/I said to Aaron and his two sons who were still alive, Eleazar and Ithamar, “Take the offering made from grain that is left after a portion of it has been offered to Yahweh to be burned, and eat it alongside the altar. [It should not be eaten elsewhere], because it is very holy.
And he spoke Moses to Aaron and to Eleazar and to Ithamar - sons his who remained take the grain offering which remains of [the] fire offerings of Yahweh and eat it unleavened bread beside the altar for [is] a holy thing of holy things it.
13 Eat it in a holy place; it is the share for you and your sons from the offerings that were burned; I have commanded that it be your share.
And you will eat it in a place holy for [is] prescribed portion your and [the] prescribed portion of sons your it from [the] fire offerings of Yahweh for thus I have been commanded.
14 But you and your sons and daughters are permitted to eat the breast and the thigh that were lifted up in front of Yahweh. Eat them in any place that is (holy/acceptable to him). They have been given to you and your descendants as your share of the offerings to enable the Israelis to maintain fellowship [with Yahweh].
And [the] breast of the wave-offering and - [the] thigh of the contribution you will eat in a place pure you and sons your and daughters your with you for prescribed portion your and [the] prescribed portion of children your they have been given from [the] sacrifices of [the] peace offerings of [the] people of Israel.
15 The thigh and the breast that were lifted up in front of Yahweh must be brought with the portions of fat to be burned, to be lifted up in his presence. They will be the regular share for you and your descendants, as Yahweh has commanded.”
[the] thigh of The contribution and [the] breast of the wave-offering with [the] fire offerings of fat they will bring to wave a wave-offering before Yahweh and it will belong to you and to sons your with you to a prescribed portion of perpetuity just as he has commanded Yahweh.
16 When Moses/I inquired about the goat that had been sacrificed to enable the people to be forgiven by Yahweh for the sins they had committed, he/I found out that it had been completely burned. So he/I was angry with Eleazar and Ithamar and asked them,
And - [the] male goat of the sin offering carefully he sought Moses and there! it had been burned and he was angry towards Eleazar and towards Ithamar [the] sons of Aaron remaining saying.
17 “Why did you not eat near the Sacred Tent the meat of the offering for sin? It was very holy, and it was given to you to enable the Israeli people to no longer be guilty for their sins and to be forgiven for their sins.
Why? not did you eat the sin offering in [the] place of holiness for [is] a holy thing of holy things it and it - he gave to you to bear [the] iniquity of the congregation to make atonement on them before Yahweh.
18 Since its blood was not taken into the holy place inside the Sacred Tent, you should have eaten the [meat of] the goat near the Sacred Tent, as I commanded.”
Here! not it was brought blood its into the holy place within certainly you will eat it in the holy place just as I commanded.
19 Aaron replied to Moses/me, “Today the people brought to Yahweh their offering to be forgiven for the sins they had committed, and the offering to be completely burned, [and surely that pleased Yahweh], but [think about the terrible thing] that happened to my other two sons! Would [RHQ] Yahweh have been pleased if I had eaten some of the offering to cause the people to become acceptable to God?”
And he spoke Aaron to Moses here! this day they have presented sin offering their and burnt offering their before Yahweh and they have happened to me like these [things] and I will eat a sin offering this day ¿ will it be good in [the] eyes of Yahweh.
20 When Moses/I heard that, he/I was satisfied.
And he heard Moses and it was good in eyes his.
