Leviticus 10

1 Now Aaron’s sons Nadab and Abihu took their censers, put fire in them and added incense, and offered unauthorized fire before the LORD, contrary to His command.

1 ثُمَّ وَضَعَ نَادَابُ وَأَبِيهُو، ابْنَا هَرُونَ، فِي مِجْمَرَتَيْهِمَا نَاراً غَيْرَ مُقَدَّسَةٍ، وَبَخُوراً عَلَى خِلافِ مَا أَمَرَهُمَا الرَّبُّ، وَقَرَّبَا أَمَامَ الرَّبِّ

2 So fire came out from the presence of the LORD and consumed them, and they died in the presence of the LORD.

2 فَانْدَلَعَتْ نَارٌ مِنْ عِنْدِ الرَّبِّ فَالْتَهَمَتْهُمَا، فَمَاتَا فِي حَضْرَةِ الرَّبِّ.

3 Then Moses said to Aaron, “This is what the LORD meant when He said: ‘To those who come near Me I will show My holiness, and in the sight of all the people I will reveal My glory.’” But Aaron remained silent.

3 فَقَالَ مُوسَى لِهَرُونَ: «إِلَيْكَ مَا قَالَهُ الرَّبُّ: فِي الْقَرِيبِينَ مِنِّي أُظْهِرُ قَدَاسَتِي، وَأُعْلِنُ مَجْدِي أَمَامَ جَمِيعِ الشَّعْبِ». فَصَمَتَ هَرُونُ.

4 Moses summoned Mishael and Elzaphan, sons of Aaron’s uncle Uzziel, and said to them, “Come here; carry the bodies of your cousins outside the camp, away from the front of the sanctuary.”

4 وَاسْتَدْعَى مُوسَى مِيشَائِيلَ وَأَلْصَافَانَ ابْنَيْ عُزِّيئِيلَ عَمِّ هَروُنَ وَقَالَ لَهُمَا: «تَعَالَيَا وَاحْمِلا جُثَّتَيْ قَرِيبَيْكُمَا مِنْ أَمَامِ الْقُدْسِ إِلَى خَارِجِ الْمُخَيَّمِ».

5 So they came forward and carried them, still in their tunics, outside the camp, as Moses had directed.

5 فَتَقَدَّمَا وَرَفَعَاهُمَا بِقَمِيصَيْهِمَا إِلَى خَارِجِ الْمُخَيَّمِ، كَمَا أَمَرَ مُوسَى.

6 Then Moses said to Aaron and his sons Eleazar and Ithamar, “Do not let your hair become disheveled and do not tear your garments, or else you will die, and the LORD will be angry with the whole congregation. But your brothers, the whole house of Israel, may mourn on account of the fire that the LORD has ignited.

6 وَقَالَ مُوسَى لِهَرُونَ وَأَلِعَازَارَ وَإِيثَامَارَ ابْنَيْهِ: «لا تَكْشِفُوا رُؤُوسَكُمْ وَلا تَشُقُّوا ثِيَابَكُمْ حِدَاداً، لِئَلّا تَمُوتُوا وَيَسْخَطَ الرَّبُّ عَلَى كُلِّ الشَّعْبِ. وَأَمَّا بَقِيَّةُ الشَّعْبِ فَلْيَبْكُوا عَلَى اللَّذَيْنِ أَحْرَقَهُمَا الرَّبُّ.

7 You shall not go outside the entrance to the Tent of Meeting, or you will die, for the LORD’s anointing oil is on you.” So they did as Moses instructed.

7 وَإِيَّاكُمْ أَنْ تَخْرُجُوا مِنْ بَابِ خَيْمَةِ الاجْتِمَاعِ لِئَلّا تَمُوتُوا، لأَنَّ دُهْنَ مَسْحَةِ الرَّبِّ مَازَالَ عَلَيْكُمْ». فَنَفَّذُوا أَمْرَ مُوسَى.

8 Then the LORD said to Aaron,

8 وَأَمَرَ الرَّبُّ هَرُونَ:

9 “You and your sons are not to drink wine or strong drink when you enter the Tent of Meeting, or else you will die; this is a permanent statute for the generations to come.

9 «لا تَشْرَبْ أَنْتَ وَأَبْنَاؤُكَ خَمْراً مُسْكِراً عِنْدَ دُخُولِكُمْ لِخِدْمَتِي فِي خَيْمَةِ الاجْتِمَاعِ، لِئَلّا تَمُوتُوا، وَتَكُونُ هَذِهِ عَلَيْكُمْ فَرِيضَةً أَبَدِيَّةً جِيلاً بَعْدَ جِيلٍ،

10 You must distinguish between the holy and the common, between the clean and the unclean,

10 لِتُمَيِّزُوا بَيْنَ الْمُقَدَّسِ وَالْمُحَلَّلِ، النَّجِسِ وَالطَّاهِرِ،

11 so that you may teach the Israelites all the statutes that the LORD has given them through Moses.”

11 وَلِتُعَلِّمُوا شَعْبَ إِسْرَائِيلَ جَمِيعَ الْفَرَائِضِ الَّتِي أَمَرْتُ بِها عَلَى لِسَانِ مُوسَى».

12 And Moses said to Aaron and his remaining sons, Eleazar and Ithamar, “Take the grain offering that remains from the food offerings to the LORD and eat it without leaven beside the altar, because it is most holy.

12 وَقَالَ مُوسَى لِهَرُونَ وَابْنَيْهِ الْبَاقِيَيْنِ، أَلِعَازَارَ وَإِيثَامَارَ: «خُذُوا مَا تَبَقَّى مِنْ تَقْدِمَةِ الدَّقِيقِ الْمُقَرَّبَةِ إِلَى الرَّبِّ وَكُلُوهَا فَطِيراً إِلَى جِوَارِ الْمَذْبَحِ، لأَنَّهَا قُدْسُ أَقْدَاسٍ.

13 You shall eat it in a holy place, because it is your share and your sons’ share of the food offerings to the LORD; for this is what I have been commanded.

13 كُلُوهَا فِي مَكَانٍ مُقَدَّسٍ لأَنَّهَا نَصِيبُكَ وَنَصِيبُ ابْنَيْكَ مِنْ مُحْرَقَاتِ الرَّبِّ، لأَنَّنِي هَكَذَا أُمِرْتُ.

14 And you and your sons and daughters may eat the breast of the wave offering and the thigh of the contribution in a ceremonially clean place, because these portions have been assigned to you and your children from the peace offerings of the sons of Israel.

14 وَأَمَّا الصَّدْرُ الْمُرَجَّحُ وَالسَّاقُ الْيُمْنَى الْمُقَدَّمَةُ، فَكُلْهَا أَنْتَ وَبَنُوكَ وَبَنَاتُكَ فِي مَكَانٍ طَاهِرٍ، لأَنَّهَا نَصِيبُكَ وَنَصِيبُ أَبْنَائِكَ مِنْ ذَبَائِحِ سَلامِ شَعْبِ إِسْرَائِيلَ.

15 They are to bring the thigh of the contribution and the breast of the wave offering, together with the fat portions of the food offerings, to wave as a wave offering before the LORD. It will belong permanently to you and your children, as the LORD has commanded.”

15 عِنْدَمَا يَأْتِي الشَّعْبُ بِسَاقِ التَّقْدِمَةِ وَصَدْرِ التَّرْجِيحِ وَوَقَائِدِ الشَّحْمِ لِتَرْجِيحِهَا أَمَامَ الرَّبِّ، يُصْبِحَانِ مِنَ نَصِيبِكَ وَنَصِيبِ أَبْنَائِكَ، فَرِيضَةً أَبَدِيَّةً جِيلاً بَعْدَ جِيلٍ».

16 Later, Moses searched carefully for the goat of the sin offering, and behold, it had been burned up. He was angry with Eleazar and Ithamar, Aaron’s remaining sons, and asked,

16 وَبَحَثَ مُوسَى عَنْ تَيْسِ الْخَطِيئَةِ فَوَجَدَهُ قَدِ احْتَرَقَ فَاغْتَاظَ مِنْ أَلِعَازَارَ وَإِيثَامَارَ ابْنَيْ هَرُونَ الْبَاقِيَيْنِ وَقَالَ:

17 “Why didn’t you eat the sin offering in the holy place? For it is most holy; it was given to you to take away the guilt of the congregation by making atonement for them before the LORD.

17 «لِمَاذَا لَمْ تَأْكُلا ذَبِيحَةَ الْخَطِيئَةِ فِي الْمَكَانِ الْمُقَدَّسِ؟ إِنَّهَا قُدْسُ أَقْدَاسٍ، وَهَبَهَا الرَّبُّ لَكُمَا لِتَحْمِلا إِثْمَ الْجَمَاعَةِ، تَكْفِيراً عَنْهُمْ أَمَامَ الرَّبِّ.

18 Since its blood was not brought inside the holy place, you should have eaten it in the sanctuary area, as I commanded.”

18 مَادَامَ دَمُهَا لَمْ يُؤْخَذْ إِلَى دَاخِلِ الْقُدْسِ، كَانَ عَلَيْكُمَا أَنْ تَأْكُلاهَا فِي الْقُدْسِ كَمَا أَوْصَيْتُ».

19 But Aaron replied to Moses, “Behold, this very day they presented their sin offering and their burnt offering before the LORD. Since these things have happened to me, if I had eaten the sin offering today, would it have been acceptable in the sight of the LORD?”

19 فَقَالَ هَرُونُ لِمُوسَى: «لَقَدْ قَرَّبَا الْيَوْمَ ذَبِيحَةَ خَطِيئَتِهِمَا وَمُحْرَقَتَهُمَا فِي حَضْرَةِ الرَّبِّ، فَلَوْ أَكَلْنَا ذَبِيحَةَ الْخَطِيئَةِ فِي مِثْلِ هَذَا الْيَوْمِ، وَقَدْ أَصَابَنَا مَا أَصَابَنَا، فَهَلْ كَانَ الرَّبُّ يَرْضَى عَنَّا؟»

20 And when Moses heard this explanation, he was satisfied.

20 فَاقْتَنَعَ مُوسَى بِهَذَا الْجَوَابِ.
