< Leviticus 22 >

1 locutus quoque est Dominus ad Mosen dicens
The Lord also spoke to Moses saying:
2 loquere ad Aaron et ad filios eius ut caveant ab his quae consecrata sunt filiorum Israhel et non contaminent nomen sanctificatorum mihi quae ipsi offerunt ego Dominus
Speak to Aaron and to his sons, so that they may be careful of those things which have been consecrated for the sons of Israel, and so that they may not contaminate the name of the things sanctified to me, which they offer. I am the Lord.
3 dic ad eos et ad posteros eorum omnis homo qui accesserit de stirpe vestra ad ea quae consecrata sunt et quae obtulerunt filii Israhel Domino in quo est inmunditia peribit coram Domino ego sum Dominus
Say to them and to their posterity: Every man of your stock, who approaches toward those things which have been consecrated, and which the sons of Israel have brought forward to the Lord, in whom there is uncleanness, shall perish before the Lord. I am the Lord.
4 homo de semine Aaron qui fuerit leprosus aut patiens fluxum seminis non vescetur de his quae sanctificata sunt mihi donec sanetur qui tetigerit inmundum super mortuo et ex quo egreditur semen quasi coitus
The man of the offspring of Aaron, who is a leper or who is suffering a flow of seed, shall not eat of those things which have been sanctified to me, until he is healed. Whoever will have touched what is unclean because of the dead, and he whose seed goes out from him, as if from sexual intercourse,
5 et qui tangit reptile et quodlibet inmundum cuius tactus est sordidus
and whoever has touched a creeping thing, or any kind of unclean thing, the touching of which is filthy,
6 inmundus erit usque ad vesperum et non vescetur his quae sanctificata sunt sed cum laverit carnem suam aqua
shall be unclean until evening, and shall not eat those things which have been sanctified. But when he has washed his flesh with water,
7 et occubuerit sol tunc mundatus vescetur de sanctificatis quia cibus illius est
and the sun has set, then, having been purified, he shall eat from what has been sanctified, because it is his food.
8 morticinum et captum a bestia non comedent nec polluentur in eis ego sum Dominus
Whatever dies on its own, and whatever has been seized by a wild beast, they shall not eat, nor shall they be polluted by these. I am the Lord.
9 custodient praecepta mea ut non subiaceant peccato et moriantur in sanctuario cum polluerint illud ego Dominus qui sanctifico eos
Let them observe my precepts, so that they may not fall under sin, and die in the Sanctuary, when they will have defiled it. I am the Lord, who sanctifies them.
10 omnis alienigena non comedet de sanctificatis inquilinus sacerdotis et mercennarius non vescentur ex eis
No foreigner shall eat from what has been sanctified; a guest of the priests and a hired servant shall not eat from them.
11 quem autem sacerdos emerit et qui vernaculus domus eius fuerit hii comedent ex eis
But whomever the priest has bought, and whoever has been born into his house, these shall eat from them.
12 si filia sacerdotis cuilibet ex populo nupta fuerit de his quae sanctificata sunt et de primitiis non vescetur
If the daughter of a priest has been married to any of the people, she shall not eat from what has been sanctified, nor from the first-fruits.
13 sin autem vidua vel repudiata et absque liberis reversa fuerit ad domum patris sui sicut puella consuerat aletur cibis patris sui omnis alienigena comedendi ex eis non habet potestatem
But if she is a widow or divorced, and, being without children, she returns to her father’s house, she shall be nourished by her father’s foods, just as she was accustomed to do as a girl. No foreigner shall have the authority to eat from them.
14 qui comederit de sanctificatis per ignorantiam addet quintam partem cum eo quod comedit et dabit sacerdoti in sanctuarium
Whoever, through ignorance, eats from what has been sanctified shall add a fifth part to that which he ate, and he shall give it to the priest at the Sanctuary.
15 nec contaminabunt sanctificata filiorum Israhel quae offerunt Domino
And they shall not contaminate what has been sanctified from the sons of Israel, which they offer to the Lord,
16 ne forte sustineant iniquitatem delicti sui cum sanctificata comederint ego Dominus qui sanctifico eos
lest perhaps they may suffer the iniquity of their offense, when they will have eaten what has been sanctified. I am the Lord, who sanctifies them.
17 locutus est Dominus ad Mosen dicens
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
18 loquere ad Aaron et filios eius et ad omnes filios Israhel dicesque ad eos homo de domo Israhel et de advenis qui habitant apud vos qui obtulerit oblationem suam vel vota solvens vel sponte offerens quicquid illud obtulerit in holocaustum Domini
Speak to Aaron, and to his sons, and to all the sons of Israel, and you shall say to them: The man from the house of Israel, or from the newcomers who live with you, who would bring forward his oblation, either fulfilling his vows or offering spontaneously, whatever he brings forward as a holocaust for the Lord,
19 ut offeratur per vos masculus inmaculatus erit ex bubus et ex ovibus et ex capris
in order to be offered through you, shall offer an immaculate male from the oxen, or from the sheep, or from the goats.
20 si maculam habuerit non offeretis neque erit acceptabile
If it has a blemish, you shall not offer it, and it shall not be acceptable.
21 homo qui obtulerit victimam pacificorum Domino vel vota solvens vel sponte offerens tam de bubus quam de ovibus inmaculatum offeret ut acceptabile sit omnis macula non erit in eo
The man who will have offered a victim of peace offerings to the Lord, either fulfilling his vows or offering spontaneously, whether of oxen, or of sheep, shall offer what is immaculate, so that it may be acceptable. There shall be no blemish in it.
22 si caecum fuerit si fractum si cicatricem habens si papulas aut scabiem vel inpetiginem non offeretis ea Domino neque adolebitis ex eis super altare Domini
If it is blind, or if it is broken, or if it has a scar, or if it is has a boil, or a skin disease or infection, you shall not offer these to the Lord, nor shall you burn any of these upon the altar of the Lord.
23 bovem et ovem aure et cauda amputatis voluntarie offerre potes votum autem ex his solvi non potest
An ox or a sheep, having an amputated ear or tail, you are able to offer voluntarily, but a vow is not able to be fulfilled by these.
24 omne animal quod vel contritis vel tunsis vel sectis ablatisque testiculis est non offeretis Domino et in terra vestra hoc omnino ne faciatis
You shall not offer to the Lord any animal which has the testicles bruised, or crushed, or cut and taken away, and you shall not cause any of these things in your land.
25 de manu alienigenae non offeretis panes Deo vestro et quicquid aliud dare voluerint quia corrupta et maculata sunt omnia non suscipietis ea
From the hand of a foreigner, you shall not offer bread to your God, nor anything else that he would choose to give; for all this has been corrupted and blemished. You shall not accept them.
26 locutusque est Dominus ad Mosen dicens
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
27 bos ovis et capra cum genita fuerint septem diebus erunt sub ubere matris suae die autem octavo et deinceps offerri poterunt Domino
An ox, a sheep, or a goat, when they have been born, shall be under the udder of their mother for seven days. But on the eighth day and thereafter, they are able to be offered to the Lord.
28 sive illa bos sive ovis non immolabuntur una die cum fetibus suis
Whether it is an ox, or a sheep, they shall not be immolated on the same day with their newborns.
29 si immolaveritis hostiam pro gratiarum actione Domino ut possit esse placabilis
If you immolate a victim as an act of thanksgiving to the Lord, so that he may be pleased,
30 eodem die comedetis eam non remanebit quicquam in mane alterius diei ego Dominus
you shall eat it on the same day; none of it shall remain until morning on the next day. I am the Lord.
31 custodite mandata mea et facite ea ego Dominus
Observe my commandments, and do them. I am the Lord.
32 ne polluatis nomen meum sanctum ut sanctificer in medio filiorum Israhel ego Dominus qui sanctifico vos
Do not pollute my holy name, so that I may be sanctified in the midst of the sons of Israel. I am the Lord, who sanctifies you,
33 et eduxi de terra Aegypti ut essem vobis in Deum ego Dominus
and who led you away from the land of Egypt, so that I may be to you as God. I am the Lord.
