< Leviticus 22 >

1 Yahweh also said to Moses/me,
Seyè a pale ak Moyiz, li di li:
2 “Tell Aaron and his sons to greatly respect the sacred offerings that the Israeli people bring to me; by doing that you will respect me [MTY], Yahweh.
-Men sa w'a di Arawon ak pitit gason l' yo. Se pou yo konnen ki jan pou yo sèvi ak sa moun pèp Izrayèl yo ofri m', ofrann yo mete apa pou mwen, pou yo pa derespekte non m'. Se mwen menm ki Seyè a.
3 “Tell them that for all future time, if any of their descendants comes near to the sacred offerings that the Israeli people dedicate to me while he is unfit to work for me, that person will no longer be allowed to work for me. I, Yahweh, [am commanding this].
W'a di yo pou mwen: Lè yon gason nan fanmi nou pa nan kondisyon pou fè sèvis mwen, si li pwoche bò kote ofrann moun pèp Izrayèl yo mete apa pou mwen, piga yo janm kite l' parèt devan m' ankò! Se mwen menm ki Seyè a.
4 “If any descendant of Aaron has a contagious skin disease or a discharge from his sexual organs, he is not allowed to eat any of the sacred offerings until he is cured. He will also be unfit for his work if he touches anything which has become unacceptable to me because it has touched a corpse, or if he touches anyone who as an emission of semen,
Si yon gason nan branch fanmi Arawon an gen yon move maladi po osinon ekoulman, li p'ap ka manje nan ofrann yo mete apa pou Bondye toutotan li pa nan kondisyon pou fè sèvis Bondye ankò. Konsa tou, si yon prèt manyen yon kadav, osinon yon nonm ki gen ekoulman, li pa nan kondisyon pou l' fè sèvis Bondye a.
5 or if he touches anything that crawls on the ground, or if he touches any person who causes him to be unfit for his work.
Ou ankò si yon prèt manyen yonn nan bèt k'ap trennen sou vant yo, bèt ki ka mete l' nan kondisyon pou l' pa kapab fè sèvis Bondye, ou ankò si li manyen yon moun ki deja nan kondisyon sa a pou tèt pa l', prèt la tou pa ka fè sèvis Bondye.
6 Any priest who touches such things must bathe, and he must not touch anyone else until that evening.
L'a rete nan kondisyon sa a jouk aswè, lèfini tou li p'ap ka manje nan ofrann yo mete apa pou Bondye yo. Se pou li pran yon bon beny nan dlo anvan.
7 After the sun sets, he will be permitted to eat some of the sacred offerings that are for him to eat.
Apre solèy kouche, l'a nan kondisyon pou l' fè sèvis Bondye. Se lè sa a l'a ka manje nan ofrann yo mete apa pou Bondye a, paske se sa ki manje l'.
8 He must not eat anything that is found dead or that has been killed by wild animals, because if he did that, he would be unfit to work for me. I, Yahweh [am commanding those things].
Li pa gen dwa manje ni vyann bèt ki mouri mò natirèl, ni vyann bèt bèt nan bwa touye. Bagay konsa ap mete l' nan kondisyon pou li pa kapab fè sèvis Bondye. Se mwen menm ki Seyè a!
9 “The priests must obey my commandments in order that they will not become guilty and die as a result of (despising/not obeying) them.
Se pou tout prèt yo swiv regleman mwen bay yo. Si yo pa swiv yo, y'a koupab, epi y'ap mouri paske yo pa respekte lòd Bondye menm te bay yo. Se mwen menm ki Seyè a, se mwen menm ki mete yo apa pou yo viv apa pou mwen.
10 “Anyone who is not a member of a priest’s family is not permitted to eat any of a sacred offering, and no one who is visiting the priest or whom the priest has hired is permitted to eat it.
Depi yon moun pa fè pati fanmi prèt yo, li te mèt yon moun ki rete lakay yon prèt osinon yon moun k'ap travay pou lajan l' lakay prèt la, li pa gen dwa manje nan ofrann yo mete apa pou Bondye yo.
11 But if a priest buys a slave, or if a slave is born in his house, that slave is permitted to eat such food.
Men, esklav yon prèt, kit se achte li te achte l', kit li te fèt lakay li, gen dwa manje nan manje prèt la resevwa a.
12 If a priest’s daughter marries a man who is not a priest, she no longer is permitted to eat the sacred food.
Si pitit fi yon prèt marye ak yon nonm ki pa prèt, li p'ap ka manje anyen nan ofrann yo fè pou Bondye yo.
13 But if a priest’s daughter who has no children becomes a widow or becomes divorced, if she returns to her father’s house to live there like she did when she was young, she may eat the same food that her father eats. But no other person is permitted to eat any of it.
Men, si pitit fi a vèv osinon si li divòse, si li pa gen pitit epi li tounen kay papa l' sou kont papa l', l'a ka manje nan manje papa l'. Men, moun ki pa fè pati fanmi prèt yo pa gen dwa manje anyen ladan l'.
14 “If anyone who is not permitted to eat a sacred offering eats it without realizing that it is sacred, he must pay the priest for the offering, and pay him an extra one-fifth of its value.
Si yon moun ki pa fè pati fanmi prèt yo manje nan manje yo mete apa pou Bondye a san li pa konnen, li gen pou l' renmèt sa l' manje a plis ven pou san valè bagay la.
15 When the priests bring offerings to me, the sacred offerings that the Israeli people bring to them, they must not treat those offerings as though they are not sacred
Prèt yo pa gen dwa kite moun ki pa fè pati fanmi yo derespekte manje yo mete apa pou Bondye.
16 by allowing those who are not priests to eat any of those offerings. If they did that, they would become guilty and must make a payment. I am Yahweh, the one who causes those offerings to be sacred.”
Si yo kite sa rive, moun lan va antò, l'ap peye pou sa. Se mwen menm ki Seyè a. Se mwen menm ki mete ofrann yo apa pou mwen.
17 Yahweh also said to Moses/me,
Seyè a pale ak Moyiz, li di l' konsa:
18 “Speak to Aaron and his sons and to all the Israeli people and tell them that I command this: ‘If any of you Israelis or foreigners who live in Israel brings to me an animal that will be completely burned [on the altar], either as a result of a solemn promise that you made to me or to be an offering that is given voluntarily,
-Pale ak Arawon ak pitit gason l' yo ak tout moun pèp Izrayèl la. Men sa w'a di yo: Lè yon moun nan pèp Izrayèl la, osinon yon moun lòt nasyon k'ap viv nan peyi a fè ofrann pou boule pou Seyè a, kit se paske li te fè yon ve, kit se paske li menm li fè lide fè ofrann lan,
19 it must be an animal that has no defects, in order that it will be accepted by me.
se pou l' chwazi yon towo bèf, yon belye osinon yon bouk kabrit san ankenn enfimite si li vle pou m' asepte ofrann lan.
20 Do not bring any animals that have defects, because I will not accept them as an offering from you.
Si nou ofri yon bèt ki gen nenpòt enfimite, Seyè a p'ap asepte l' nan men nou.
21 [Similarly], when someone brings from his cattle or sheep or goats an offering to maintain fellowship with me, either to fulfill a promise that he made to me or to be a voluntary offering, in order that I will accept it, it must have no defects [DOU] or blemishes.
Lè yon moun ap fè ofrann pou di Bondye mèsi, kit se paske li te fè yon ve, kit se paske li menm li vle fè ofrann lan, se pou bèt l'ap ofri a, li te mèt gwo bèt, li te mèt ti bèt, pa gen ankenn enfimite, si li vle pou m' asepte l'.
22 Do not offer to me animals that are blind or injured or maimed/crippled, or any animal that has warts or a festering sore [DOU].
Piga nou janm ofri bay Seyè a bèt je pete, bèt k'ap bwete, bèt ki pèdi janm, bèt ki gen malenng, bèt ki gen maladi po. Piga nou janm pran yon bèt konsa pou nou mete sou lotèl la pou nou boule nan dife pou Seyè a.
23 You may present to me to be a voluntary offering an ox or a sheep that is injured or stunted, but it will not be accepted to fulfill a promise made to me.
Lè nou menm nou fè lide fè yon ofrann pou Seyè a, nou ka ofri yon towo bèf osinon yon belye ki difòm osinon ki kata. Men, nou pa ka sèvi ak yo pou yon ofrann n'ap fè paske nou te fè yon ve. Mwen p'ap asepte l'.
24 You must not offer to me animals whose testicles are bruised or crushed or torn or cut. You must not injure the testicles of any animal in your land,
Pa ofri bay Seyè a yon mal bèt ki gen grenn li yo foule, kraze, rache, osinon koupe. Nou pa gen dwa ofri bèt konsa nan peyi nou an.
25 and you must not accept such animals that are sold/given to you by a foreigner. You must not offer them to me as a sacrifice for me. Such animals will not be accepted by me, because they are deformed or have defects.’”
Piga nou pran bèt moun lòt nasyon fè nou kado pou n' ofri bay Seyè a. Paske bèt konsa pa antye, yo manke kichòy nan kò yo. Seyè a p'ap asepte yo nan men nou.
26 Yahweh also said to Moses/me,
Seyè a pale ak Moyiz, li di l' konsa:
27 “When a calf or lamb or goat is born, it must remain with its mother for seven days. After that, it will be acceptable as an offering to me that will be burned.
-Lè yon ti bèf, yon ti mouton osinon yon ti kabrit fenk fèt, se pou nou kite l' dèyè manman l' pandan sèt jou. Depi sou wityèm jou a, nou gen dwa ofri l' pou boule nan dife pou Seyè a.
28 Do not slaughter a cow or a sheep and its baby on the same day.
Kit se bèf, kit se mouton, pa janm ofri yon bèt ansanm ak pitit li menm jou a.
29 “Then you sacrifice an animal to thank [me for what I have done], sacrifice it in a way that is acceptable to me.
Lè n'ap fè ofrann pou di Bondye mèsi, se pou nou swiv tout regleman yo si nou vle Seyè a asepte ofrann lan nan men nou.
30 The meat must be eaten on that day; do not leave any of it until the next morning. I, Yahweh, [am the one who am commanding this].
Se pou nou manje l' menm jou a. Pa kite anyen pou denmen maten. Se mwen menm ki Seyè a!
31 “Obey all my commands [DOU]. I, Yahweh, [am commanding them];
Se pou nou fè tou sa mwen ban nou lòd fè. Wi, se pou nou swiv lòd mwen yo. Se mwen menm ki Seyè a!
32 do not dishonor me [MTY] [by disobeying them]. You Israeli people must acknowledge that I, Yahweh, am holy, and I am the one who causes you to be holy.
Piga nou derespekte non mwen. Se pou tout moun pèp Izrayèl la respekte m'. Se mwen menm ki Seyè a, se mwen menm ki mete nou apa pou nou viv apa pou mwen.
33 And I am the one who brought you out of Egypt in order to show that that I, Yahweh, am [and will always be] your God.”
Se mwen menm ki te fè nou soti kite peyi Lejip pou m' te ka Bondye nou. Se mwen menm ki Seyè a!
