Levítico 21
1 Y el SEÑOR dijo a Moisés: Habla a los sacerdotes hijos de Aarón, y diles que no se contaminen por un muerto en sus pueblos.
And Yhwh said unto Moses, Speak unto the priests the sons of Aaron, and say unto them, There shall none be defiled for the dead among his people:
2 Mas por su pariente cercano a sí, por su madre, o por su padre, o por su hijo, o por su hermano,
But for his kin, that is near unto him, that is, for his mother, and for his father, and for his son, and for his daughter, and for his brother,
3 o por su hermana virgen, a él cercana, la cual no haya tenido marido, por ella se contaminará.
And for his sister a virgin, that is nigh unto him, which hath had no husband; for her may he be defiled.
4 No se contaminará, por el príncipe en su pueblo, ensuciándose.
But he shall not defile himself, being a chief man among his people, to profane himself.
5 No harán calva en su cabeza, ni raerán la punta de su barba, ni en su carne harán rasguños.
They shall not make baldness upon their head, neither shall they shave off the corner of their beard, nor make any cuttings in their flesh.
6 Santos serán a su Dios, y no ensuciarán el nombre de su Dios; porque los fuegos del SEÑOR, el pan de su Dios ofrecen; por tanto serán santos.
They shall be holy unto their God, and not profane the name of their God: for the offerings of Yhwh made by fire, and the bread of their God, they do offer: therefore they shall be holy.
7 Mujer ramera o infame no tomarán; ni tomarán mujer repudiada de su marido; porque el sacerdote es santo a su Dios.
They shall not take a wife that is a whore, or profane; neither shall they take a woman put away from her husband: for he is holy unto his God.
8 Y lo santificarás, porque el pan de tu Dios ofrece; santo será a ti, porque santo soy yo el SEÑOR vuestro santificador.
Thou shalt sanctify him therefore; for he offereth the bread of thy God: he shall be holy unto thee: for I Yhwh, which sanctify you, am holy.
9 Y la hija del varón sacerdote, si comenzare a fornicar, a su padre contamina; quemada será en fuego.
And the daughter of any priest, if she profane herself by playing the whore, she profaneth her father: she shall be burnt with fire.
10 Y el sumo sacerdote entre sus hermanos, sobre cuya cabeza fue derramado el aceite de la unción, y que fue consagrado para vestir las vestimentas, no descubrirá su cabeza, ni romperá sus vestidos;
And he that is the high priest among his brethren, upon whose head the anointing oil was poured, and that is consecrated to put on the garments, shall not uncover his head, nor rend his clothes;
11 ni entrará a alguna persona muerta, ni por su padre, o por su madre se contaminará.
Neither shall he go in to any dead body, nor defile himself for his father, or for his mother;
12 Ni saldrá del santuario, ni ensuciará el santuario de su Dios; porque la corona del aceite de la unción de su Dios está sobre él. Yo soy el SEÑOR.
Neither shall he go out of the sanctuary, nor profane the sanctuary of his God; for the crown of the anointing oil of his God is upon him: I am Yhwh.
13 Y tomará él mujer con su virginidad.
And he shall take a wife in her virginity.
14 Viuda, o repudiada, o infame, o ramera, éstas no tomará; mas tomará virgen de su pueblo por mujer.
A widow, or a divorced woman, or profane, or an harlot, these shall he not take: but he shall take a virgin of his own people to wife.
15 Y no ensuciará su simiente en su pueblo; porque yo el SEÑOR soy el que los santifico.
Neither shall he profane his seed among his people: for I Yhwh do sanctify him.
16 Y el SEÑOR habló a Moisés, diciendo:
And Yhwh spake unto Moses, saying,
17 Habla a Aarón, y dile: El varón de tu simiente en sus generaciones, en el cual hubiere falta, no se acercará para ofrecer el pan de su Dios.
Speak unto Aaron, saying, Whosoever he be of thy seed in their generations that hath any blemish, let him not approach to offer the bread of his God.
18 Porque ningún varón en el cual hubiere falta, se acercará: varón ciego, o cojo, o falto, o sobrado,
For whatsoever man he be that hath a blemish, he shall not approach: a blind man, or a lame, or he that hath a flat nose, or any thing superfluous,
19 o varón en el cual hubiere quebradura de pie o quebradura de mano,
Or a man that is brokenfooted, or brokenhanded,
20 o jorobado, o lagañoso, o que tuviere nube en el ojo, o que tuviere sarna, o empeine, o testículo atrofiado.
Or crookbackt, or a dwarf, or that hath a blemish in his eye, or be scurvy, or scabbed, or hath his stones broken;
21 Ningún varón de la simiente de Aarón sacerdote, en el cual hubiere falta, se acercará para ofrecer las ofrendas encendidas del SEÑOR. Hay falta en él; no se acercará a ofrecer el pan de su Dios.
No man that hath a blemish of the seed of Aaron the priest shall come nigh to offer the offerings of Yhwh made by fire: he hath a blemish; he shall not come nigh to offer the bread of his God.
22 El pan de su Dios, de lo santísimo y de las cosas santificadas, comerá.
He shall eat the bread of his God, both of the most holy, and of the holy.
23 Pero no entrará del velo adentro, ni se acercará al altar, por cuanto hay falta en él; y no ensuciará mi santuario, porque yo el SEÑOR soy el que los santifico.
Only he shall not go in unto the vail, nor come nigh unto the altar, because he hath a blemish; that he profane not my sanctuaries: for I Yhwh do sanctify them.
24 Y Moisés habló esto a Aarón, y a sus hijos, y a todos los hijos de Israel.
And Moses told it unto Aaron, and to his sons, and unto all the children of Israel.
