< Leviticus 10 >

1 Arreptisque Nadab, et Abiu filii Aaron thuribulis, posuerunt ignem, et incensum desuper, offerentes coram Domino ignem alienum: quod eis praeceptum non erat.
And the two sons of Aaron, Nadab and Abiud, took each his censer, and put fire therein, and threw incense thereon, and offered strange fire before the Lord, which the Lord did not command them,
2 Egressusque ignis a Domino, devoravit eos, et mortui sunt coram Domino.
and fire came forth from the Lord, and devoured them, and they died before the Lord.
3 Dixitque Moyses ad Aaron: Hoc est quod locutus est Dominus: Sanctificabor in iis, qui appropinquant mihi, et in conspectu omnis populi glorificabor. Quod audiens tacuit Aaron.
And Moses said to Aaron, This is the thing which the Lord spoke, saying, I will be sanctified among them that draw night to me, and I will be glorified in the whole congregation; and Aaron was pricked [in his heart].
4 Vocatis autem Moyses Misaele, et Elisaphan filiis Oziel, patrui Aaron, ait ad eos: Ite et tollite fratres vestros de conspectu Sanctuarii, et asportate extra castra.
And Moses called Misadae, and Elisaphan, sons of Oziel, sons of the brother of Aaron's father, and said to them, Draw near and take your brethren from before the sanctuary out of the camp.
5 Confestimque pergentes, tulerunt eos sicut iacebant, vestitos lineis tunicis, et eiecerunt foras, ut sibi fuerat imperatum.
And they came near and took them in their coats out of the camp, as Moses said.
6 Locutusque est Moyses ad Aaron, et ad Eleazar, et Ithamar filios eius: Capita vestra nolite nudare, et vestimenta nolite scindere, ne forte moriamini, et super omnem coetum oriatur indignatio. Fratres vestri, et omnis domus Israel plangant incendium quod Dominus suscitavit:
And Moses said to Aaron, and Eleazar and Ithamar his sons that were left, Ye shall not make bare your heads, and ye shall not tear your garments; that ye die not, and [so] there should be wrath on all the congregation: but your brethren, [even] all the house of Israel, shall lament for the burning, with which they were burnt by the Lord.
7 vos autem non egrediemini fores tabernaculi, alioquin peribitis: oleum quippe sanctae unctionis est super vos. Qui fecerunt omnia iuxta praeceptum Moysi.
And ye shall not go forth from the door of the tabernacle of witness, that ye die not; for the Lord's anointing oil [is] upon you: and they did according to the word of Moses.
8 Dixitque Dominus ad Aaron:
And the Lord spoke to Aaron, saying,
9 Vinum, et omne quod inebriare potest, non bibetis tu et filii tui, quando intrabitis in tabernaculum testimonii, ne moriamini: quia praeceptum sempiternum est in generationes vestras.
Ye shall not drink wine nor strong drink, thou and thy sons with thee, whensoever ye enter into the tabernacle of witness, or when ye approach the altar, so shall ye not die; [it is] a perpetual statute for your generations,
10 Et ut habeatis scientiam discernendi inter sanctum et profanum, inter pollutum et mundum:
to distinguish between sacred and profane, and between clean and unclean,
11 doceatisque filios Israel omnia legitima mea quae locutus est Dominus ad eos per manum Moysi.
and to teach the children of Israel all the statutes, which the Lord spoke to them by Moses.
12 Locutusque est Moyses ad Aaron, et ad Eleazar, et Ithamar filios eius, qui erant residui: Tollite sacrificium, quod remansit de oblatione Domini, et comedite illud absque fermento iuxta altare, quia Sanctum sanctorum est.
And Moses said to Aaron, and to Eleazar and Ithamar, the sons of Aaron who survived, Take the sacrifice that is left of the burnt-offerings of the Lord, and ye shall eat unleavened bread by the altar: it is most holy.
13 Comedetis autem in loco sancto: quod datum est tibi et filiis tuis de oblationibus Domini, sicut praeceptum est mihi.
And ye shall eat it in the holy place; for this is a statute for thee and a statute for thy sons, of the burnt-offerings to the Lord; for so it has been commanded me.
14 Pectusculum quoque quod oblatum est, et armum qui separatus est, edetis in loco mundissimo tu et filii tui, et filiae tuae tecum. tibi enim ac liberis tuis reposita sunt de hostiis salutaribus filiorum Israel:
And ye shall eat the breast of separation, and the shoulder of the choice-offering in the holy place, thou and thy sons and thy house with thee; for it has been given as an ordinance for thee and an ordinance for thy sons, of the sacrifices of peace-offering of the children of Israel.
15 eo quod armum et pectus, et adipes qui cremantur in altari, elevaverunt coram Domino, et pertineant ad te, et ad filios tuos lege perpetua, sicut praecepit Dominus.
They shall bring the shoulder of the choice-offering, and the breast of the separation upon the burnt-offerings of the fat, to separate for a separation before the Lord; and it shall be a perpetual ordinance for thee and thy sons and thy daughters with thee, as the Lord commanded Moses.
16 Inter haec, hircum, qui oblatus fuerat pro peccato, cum quaereret Moyses, exustum reperit: iratusque contra Eleazar et Ithamar filios Aaron, qui remanserant, ait:
And Moses diligently sought the goat of the sin-offering, but it had been consumed by fire; and Moses was angry with Eleazar and Ithamar the sons of Aaron that were left, saying,
17 Cur non comedistis hostiam pro peccato in loco sancto, quae Sancta sanctorum est, et data vobis ut portetis iniquitatem multitudinis, et rogetis pro ea in conspectu Domini,
Why did ye not eat the sin-offering in the holy place? for because it is most holy he has given you this to eat, that ye might take away the sin of the congregation, and make atonement for them before the Lord.
18 praesertim cum de sanguine illius non sit illatum intra sancta, et comedere debueratis eam in Sanctuario, sicut praeceptum est mihi?
For the blood of it was not brought into the holy place: ye shall eat it within, before [the Lord], as the Lord commanded me.
19 Respondit Aaron: Oblata est hodie victima pro peccato, et holocaustum coram Domino: mihi autem accidit quod vides. quomodo potui comedere eam, aut placere Domino in ceremoniis mente lugubri?
And Aaron spoke to Moses, saying, If they have brought nigh to-day their sin-offerings, and their whole-burnt-offerings before the Lord, and these events have happened to me, and [yet] I should eat to-day of the sin-offerings, would it be pleasing to the Lord?
20 Quod cum audisset Moyses, recepit satisfactionem.
And Moses heard [it], and it pleased him.
