Leviticus 16

1 Now the LORD spoke to Moses after the death of two of Aaron’s sons when they approached the presence of the LORD.

1 وَقَالَ الرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى بَعْدَ وَفَاةِ ابْنَيْ هَرُونَ، عِنْدَمَا اقْتَرَبَا أَمَامَ الرَّبِّ فَمَاتَا:

2 And the LORD said to Moses: “Tell your brother Aaron not to enter freely into the Most Holy Place behind the veil in front of the mercy seat on the ark, or else he will die, because I appear in the cloud above the mercy seat.

2 «كَلِّمْ أَخَاكَ هَرُونَ وَحَذِّرْهُ مِنَ الدُّخُولِ فِي كُلِّ وَقْتٍ إِلَى قُدْسِ الأَقْدَاسِ، وَرَاءَ الْحِجَابِ أَمَامَ غِطَاءِ التَّابُوتِ، لِئَلّا يَمُوتَ، لأَنَّنِي أَتَجَلَّى فِي السَّحَابِ عَلَى الْغِطَاءِ.

3 This is how Aaron is to enter the Holy Place: with a young bull for a sin offering and a ram for a burnt offering.

3 بِهَذَا يَدْخُلُ هَرُونُ إِلَى الْقُدْسِ: يَأْتِي بِثَوْرٍ لِذَبِيحَةِ خَطِيئَةٍ وَكَبْشٍ لِمُحْرَقَةٍ،

4 He is to wear the sacred linen tunic, with linen undergarments. He must tie a linen sash around him and put on the linen turban. These are holy garments, and he must bathe himself with water before he wears them.

4 وَعَلَيْهِ أَنْ يَلْبَسَ قَمِيصَ كَتَّانٍ مُقَدَّساً، وَيَرْتَدِيَ فَوْقَ جَسَدِهِ سَرَاوِيلَ كَتَّانٍ، وَيَتَنَطَّقَ بِحِزَامِ كَتَّانٍ، وَيَتَعَمَّمَ بِعِمَامَةِ كَتَّانٍ، بَعْدَ أَنْ يَغْتَسِلَ بِمَاءٍ. إِنَّهَا ثِيَابٌ مُقَدَّسَةٌ.

5 And he shall take from the congregation of Israel two male goats for a sin offering and one ram for a burnt offering.

5 يَأْخُذُ مِنْ شَعْبِ إِسْرَائِيلَ تَيْسَيْنِ مِنَ الْمَعْزِ لِذَبِيحَةِ الْخَطِيئَةِ، وَكَبْشاً وَاحِداً لِيَكُونَ مُحْرَقَةً،

6 Aaron is to present the bull for his sin offering and make atonement for himself and his household.

6 فَيُقَرِّبُ هَرُونُ ثَوْرَ الْخَطِيئَةِ تَكْفِيراً عَنْ نَفْسِهِ وَعَنْ أُسْرَتِهِ،

7 Then he shall take the two goats and present them before the LORD at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.

7 ثُمَّ يَأْخُذُ التَّيْسَيْنِ وَيُقَدِّمُهُمَا أَمَامَ الرَّبِّ عِنْدَ مَدْخَلِ خَيْمَةِ الاجْتِمَاعِ،

8 After Aaron casts lots for the two goats, one for the LORD and the other for the scapegoat,

8 وَيُلْقِي عَلَيْهِمَا قُرْعَتَيْنِ: قُرْعَةً لِلرَّبِّ وَقُرْعَةً لِعَزَازِيلَ (كَبْشِ الْفِدَاءِ).

9 he shall present the goat chosen by lot for the LORD and sacrifice it as a sin offering.

9 وَيُقَرِّبُ هَرُونُ التَّيْسَ الَّذِي وَقَعَتْ عَلَيْهِ قُرْعَةُ الرَّبِّ وَيُصْعِدُهُ ذَبِيحَةَ خَطِيئَةٍ،

10 But the goat chosen by lot as the scapegoat shall be presented alive before the LORD to make atonement by sending it into the wilderness as the scapegoat.

10 وَأَمَّا التَّيْسُ الَّذِي وَقَعَتْ عَلَيْهِ قُرْعَةُ عَزَازِيلَ، فَيُوْقِفُهُ حَيًّا أَمَامَ الرَّبِّ لِيُكَفِّرَ عَنْهُ، ثُمَّ يُطْلِقُهُ إِلَى الصَّحْرَاءِ، فَهُوَ كَبْشُ فِدَاءٍ.

11 When Aaron presents the bull for his sin offering and makes atonement for himself and his household, he is to slaughter the bull for his own sin offering.

11 وَبَعْدَ أَنْ يُقَدِّمَ هَرُونُ ثَوْرَ الْخَطِيئَةِ تَكْفِيراً عَنْ نَفْسِهِ وَعَنْ أُسْرَتِهِ وَيَذْبَحَهُ،

12 Then he must take a censer full of burning coals from the altar before the LORD, and two handfuls of finely ground fragrant incense, and take them inside the veil.

12 يَمْلأُ الْمِجْمَرَةَ بِجَمْرِ نَارٍ مِنْ عَلَى الْمَذْبَحِ مِنْ أَمَامِ الرَّبِّ، وَيَأْخُذُ مِلْءَ قَبْضَتِهِ مِنَ الْبَخُورِ الْعَطِرِ الدَّقِيقِ وَيَدْخُلُ بِهِمَا إِلَى مَا وَرَاءِ الْحِجَابِ.

13 He is to put the incense on the fire before the LORD, and the cloud of incense will cover the mercy seat above the Testimony, so that he will not die.

13 وَيَضَعُ الْبَخُورَ عَلَى النَّارِ فِي حَضْرَةِ الرَّبِّ، فَتُغَشِّي سَحَابَةُ الْبَخُورِ غِطَاءَ التَّابُوتِ، فَلا يَمُوتُ.

14 And he is to take some of the bull’s blood and sprinkle it with his finger on the east side of the mercy seat; then he shall sprinkle some of it with his finger seven times before the mercy seat.

14 ثُمَّ يَأْخُذُ بَعْضَ دَمِ الثَّوْرِ وَيَرُشُّ بِإِصْبَعِهِ عَلَى وَجْهِ الْجُزْءِ الشَّرْقِيِّ مِنْ غِطَاءِ التَّابُوتِ، كَمَا يَرُشُّ مِنَ الدَّمِ بِإِصْبَعِهِ سَبْعَ مَرَّاتٍ أَمَامَ الْغِطَاءِ.

15 Aaron shall then slaughter the goat for the sin offering for the people and bring its blood behind the veil, and with its blood he must do as he did with the bull’s blood: He is to sprinkle it against the mercy seat and in front of it.

15 وَيَذْبَحُ تَيْسَ الْخَطِيئَةِ الْمُقَدَّمَ مِنَ الشَّعْبِ، وَيَدْخُلُ بِدَمِهِ إِلَى مَا وَرَاءَ الْحِجَابِ، وَيَرُشُّ مِنْ دَمِهِ كَمَا رَشَّ مِنْ دَمِ الثَّوْرِ عَلَى الْغِطَاءِ وَأَمَامَهُ،

16 So he shall make atonement for the Most Holy Place because of the impurities and rebellious acts of the Israelites in regard to all their sins. He is to do the same for the Tent of Meeting which abides among them in the midst of their impurities.

16 فَيُكَفِّرُ عَنِ الْقُدْسِ مِنْ نَجَاسَاتِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ وَسَيِّئَاتِهِمْ وَسَائِرِ خَطَايَاهُمْ. وَمِثْلَ ذَلِكَ يَفْعَلُ لِخَيْمَةِ الاجْتِمَاعِ الْقَائِمَةِ فِي وَسَطِهِمْ، مُحَاطَةٍ بِنَجَاسَاتِهِمْ.

17 No one may be in the Tent of Meeting from the time Aaron goes in to make atonement in the Most Holy Place until he leaves, after he has made atonement for himself, his household, and the whole assembly of Israel.

17 وَلا يَكُنْ أَحَدٌ فِي خَيْمَةِ الاجْتِمَاعِ عِنْدَ دُخُولِ هَرُونَ إِلَى قُدْسِ الأَقْدَاسِ لِلتَّكْفِيرِ عَنْ نَفْسِهِ وَعَنْ أُسْرَتِهِ وَعَنْ كُلِّ جَمَاعَةِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَإِلَى وَقْتِ خُرُوجِهِ.

18 Then he shall go out to the altar that is before the LORD and make atonement for it. He is to take some of the bull’s blood and some of the goat’s blood and put it on all the horns of the altar.

18 ثُمَّ يَأْتِي إِلَى الْمَذْبَحِ الْقَائِمِ فِي حَضْرَةِ الرَّبِّ وَيُكَفِّرُ عَنْهُ، فَيَأْخُذُ مِنْ دَمِ الثَّوْرِ وَمِنْ دَمِ التَّيْسِ، وَيَضَعُ مِنْهُمَا عَلَى قُرُونِ جَوَانِبِ الْمَذْبَحِ.

19 He is to sprinkle some of the blood on it with his finger seven times to cleanse it and consecrate it from the uncleanness of the Israelites.

19 وَيَرُشُّ عَلَيْهِ مِنَ الدَّمِ بِإِصْبَعِهِ سَبْعَ مَرَّاتٍ وَيُطَهِّرُهُ وَيُقَدِّسُهُ مِنْ نَجَاسَاتِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ.

20 When Aaron has finished purifying the Most Holy Place, the Tent of Meeting, and the altar, he is to bring forward the live goat.

20 وَعِنْدَمَا يَنْتَهِي مِنَ التَّكْفِيرِ عَنْ قُدْسِ الأَقْدَاسِ، وَعَنْ خَيْمَةِ الاجْتِمَاعِ، وَعَنِ الْمَذْبَحِ، يَأْتِي بِالتَّيْسِ الْحَيِّ،

21 Then he is to lay both hands on the head of the live goat and confess over it all the iniquities and rebellious acts of the Israelites in regard to all their sins. He is to put them on the goat’s head and send it away into the wilderness by the hand of a man appointed for the task.

21 وَيَضَعُ هَرُونُ يَدَيْهِ عَلَى رَأْسِهِ، وَيَعْتَرِفُ بِجَمِيعِ خَطَايَا بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ وَسَيِّئَاتِهِمْ وَذُنُوبِهِمْ، وَيُحَمِّلُهَا عَلَى رَأْسِ التَّيْسِ، ثُمَّ يُطْلِقُهُ إِلَى الصَّحْرَاءِ مَعَ شَخْصٍ تَمَّ اخْتِيَارُهُ لِذَلِكَ.

22 The goat will carry on itself all their iniquities into a solitary place, and the man will release it into the wilderness.

22 فَيَحْمِلُ التَّيْسُ ذُنُوبَ الشَّعْبِ كُلَّهَا إِلَى أَرْضٍ مُقْفِرَةٍ، وَهُنَاكَ يُطْلِقُهُ فِي الصَّحْرَاءِ.

23 Then Aaron is to enter the Tent of Meeting, take off the linen garments he put on before entering the Most Holy Place, and leave them there.

23 ثُمَّ يَدْخُلُ هَرُونُ إِلَى خَيْمَةِ الاجْتِمَاعِ، حَيْثُ يَخْلَعُ الْمَلابِسَ الْكَتَّانِيَّةَ الَّتِي ارْتَدَاهَا عِنْدَ دُخُولِهِ إِلَى قُدْسِ الأَقْدَاسِ وَيَضَعُهَا هُنَاكَ،

24 He is to bathe himself with water in a holy place and put on his own clothes. Then he must go out and sacrifice his burnt offering and the people’s burnt offering to make atonement for himself and for the people.

24 وَيَسْتَحِمُّ بِمَاءٍ فِي مَكَانٍ مُقَدَّسٍ، ثُمَّ يَرْتَدِي ثِيَابَهُ وَيَخْرُجُ لِيُصْعِدَ مُحْرَقَتَهُ وَمُحْرَقَةَ الشَّعْبِ، وَيُكَفِّرَ عَنْ نَفْسِهِ وَعَنِ الشَّعْبِ،

25 He is also to burn the fat of the sin offering on the altar.

25 وَيُحْرِقَ شَحْمَ ذَبِيحَةِ الْخَطِيئَةِ عَلَى الْمَذْبَحِ،

26 The man who released the goat as the scapegoat must wash his clothes and bathe himself with water; afterward he may reenter the camp.

26 وَيَغْسِلَ ثِيَابَهُ وَيَسْتَحِمَّ بِمَاءٍ، وَبَعْدَ ذَلِكَ يَدْخُلُ إِلَى الْمُخَيَّمِ.

27 The bull for the sin offering and the goat for the sin offering, whose blood was brought into the Most Holy Place to make atonement, must be taken outside the camp; and their hides, flesh, and dung must be burned up.

27 ثُمَّ يُخْرِجُ هَرُونُ ثَوْرَ الْخَطِيئَةِ وَتَيْسَ الْخَطِيئَةِ اللَّذَيْنِ كَفَّرَ بِدَمِهِمَا فِي قُدْسِ الأَقْدَاسِ إِلَى خَارِجِ الْمُخَيَّمِ، وَتُحْرِقُونَهُمَا بِالنَّارِ: جِلْدَيْهِمَا وَلَحْمَهُمَا وَرَوْثَهُمَا،

28 The one who burns them must wash his clothes and bathe himself with water, and afterward he may reenter the camp.

28 وَعَلَى مَنْ يُحْرِقُهُمَا أَنْ يَغْسِلَ ثِيَابَهُ وَيَسْتَحِمَّ بِمَاءٍ، وَبَعْدَ ذَلِكَ يَدْخُلُ إِلَى الْمُخَيَّمِ.

29 This is to be a permanent statute for you: On the tenth day of the seventh month, you shall humble yourselves and not do any work—whether the native or the foreigner who resides among you—

29 وَإِلَيْكُمْ هَذِهِ الشَّرِيعَةَ الدَّائِمَةَ: إِنَّكُمْ فِي الْيَوْمِ الْعَاشِرِ مِنَ الشَّهْرِ السَّابِعِ (أَيْ شَهْرِ أَيْلُولَ – سِبْتَمْبَر) تَتَذَلَّلُونَ وَلا تَقُومُونَ بِأَيِّ عَمَلٍ. الْمُوَاطِنُ وَالْغَرِيبُ النَّازِلُ فِي وَسَطِكُمْ عَلَى حَدٍّ سَوَاءٍ،

30 because on this day atonement will be made for you to cleanse you, and you will be clean from all your sins before the LORD.

30 لأَنَّهُ فِي هَذَا الْيَوْمِ يَجْرِي التَّكْفِيرُ عَنْكُمْ، فَتَطْهُرُونَ مِنْ جَمِيعِ خَطَايَاكُمْ أَمَامَ الرَّبِّ.

31 It is a Sabbath of complete rest for you, that you may humble yourselves; it is a permanent statute.

31 إِنَّهُ يَوْمُ رَاحَةٍ مُقَدَّسَةٍ لَكُمْ تَتَذَلَّلُونَ فِيهِ، فَرِيضَةً دَائِمَةً.

32 The priest who is anointed and ordained to succeed his father as high priest shall make atonement. He will put on the sacred linen garments

32 وَيَقُومُ الْكَاهِنُ الْمَمْسُوحُ وَالْمُكَرَّسُ الَّذِي يَخْلِفُ وَالِدَهُ عَلَى رَئَاسَةِ الْكَهَنَةِ بِفَرَائِضِ التَّكْفِيرِ وَهُوَ لابِسٌ ثِيَابَ الْكَتَّانِ الْمُقَدَّسَةَ،

33 and make atonement for the Most Holy Place, the Tent of Meeting, and the altar, and for the priests and all the people of the assembly.

33 فَيُكَفِّرُ عَنْ قُدْسِ الأَقْدَاسِ، وَعَنْ خَيْمَةِ الاجْتِمَاعِ، وَالْمَذْبَحِ، وَيُكَفِّرُ أَيْضاً عَنِ الْكَهَنَةِ وَعَنْ كُلِّ شَعْبِ إِسْرَائِيلَ.

34 This is to be a permanent statute for you, to make atonement once a year for the Israelites because of all their sins.” And all this was done as the LORD had commanded Moses.

34 وَتَكُونُ هَذِهِ لَكُمْ فَرِيضَةً دَائِمَةً لِلتَّكْفِيرِ عَنْ جَمِيعِ خَطَايَا بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، مَرَّةً فِي السَّنَةِ». فَنَفَّذَ هَرُونُ مَا أَمَرَ بِهِ مُوسَى.
