Leviticus 22

1 Then the LORD said to Moses,

1 وَقَالَ الرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى:

2 “Tell Aaron and his sons to treat with respect the sacred offerings that the Israelites have consecrated to Me, so that they do not profane My holy name. I am the LORD.

2 «قُلْ لِهَرُونَ وَأَبْنَائِهِ أَلّا يَنْتَهِكُوا تَقْدِمَاتِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ الَّتِي يُقَدِّسُونَهَا، وَلا يُدَنِّسُوا اسْمِي الْقُدُّوسَ. فَأَنَا الرَّبُّ.

3 Tell them that for the generations to come, if any of their descendants in a state of uncleanness approaches the sacred offerings that the Israelites consecrate to the LORD, that person must be cut off from My presence. I am the LORD.

3 قُلْ لَهُمْ: إِيَّاكُمْ عَلَى مَدَى أَجْيَالِكُمْ أَنْ يَقْتَرِبَ كَاهِنٌ إِلَى التَّقْدِمَاتِ الَّتِي يُقَدِّسُهَا بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ وَهُوَ غَيْرُ طَاهِرٍ، فَإِنَّ تِلْكَ النَّفْسَ تُسْتَأْصَلُ مِنْ أَمَامِي، فَأَنَا الرَّبُّ.

4 If a descendant of Aaron has a skin disease or a discharge, he may not eat the sacred offerings until he is clean. Whoever touches anything defiled by a corpse or by a man who has an emission of semen,

4 أَيُّ كَاهِنٍ مِنْ نَسْلِ هَرُونَ مُصَابٌ بِالْبَرَصِ أَوِ السَّيَلانِ، لَا يَأْكُلْ مِنَ الذَّبَائِحِ الْمُقَدَّسَةِ حَتَّى يَطْهُرَ، وَكَذَلِكَ كُلُّ مَنْ لَمَسَ شَيْئاً تَنَجَّسَ بِجُثَّةِ مَيْتٍ، أَوْ شَخْصاً حَدَثَ مِنْهُ قَذْفٌ مَنَوِيٌّ.

5 or whoever touches a crawling creature or a person that makes him unclean, whatever the uncleanness may be—

5 أَيُّ كَاهِنٍ لَمَسَ حَيَوَاناً أَوْ إِنْسَاناً غَيْرَ طَاهِرٍ لِنَجَاسَةٍ فِيهِ،

6 the man who touches any of these will remain unclean until evening. He must not eat from the sacred offerings unless he has bathed himself with water.

6 فَاللّامِسُ يَكُونُ نَجِساً إِلَى الْمَسَاءِ، وَلا يَأْكُلُ مِنَ الذَّبَائِحِ الْمُقَدَّسَةِ، بَلْ يَسْتَحِمُّ بِمَاءٍ.

7 When the sun has set, he will become clean, and then he may eat from the sacred offerings, for they are his food.

7 وَلَكِنْ مَتَى غَرَبَتِ الشَّمْسُ يُصْبِحُ طَاهِراً، ثُمَّ يَأْكُلُ مِنَ الذَّبَائِحِ الْمُقَدَّسَةِ، لأَنَّهَا طَعَامُهُ.

8 He must not eat anything found dead or torn by wild animals, which would make him unclean. I am the LORD.

8 لَا يَأْكُلْ مِنْ جِيفَةِ حَيَوَانٍ أَوْ فَرِيسَةٍ فَيَتَنَجَّسَ بِها. فَأَنَا الرَّبُّ.

9 The priests must keep My charge, lest they bear the guilt and die because they profane it. I am the LORD who sanctifies them.

9 أَطِيعُوا شَعَائِرِي لِئَلَّا تَحْمِلُوا خَطِيئَتَهَا وَتَمُوتُوا بِسَبَبِهَا لأَنَّكُمْ دَنَّسْتُمُوهَا، فَأَنَا الرَّبُّ الَّذِي أُقَدِّسُكُمْ.

10 No one outside a priest’s family may eat the sacred offering, nor may the guest of a priest or his hired hand eat it.

10 يُحَظَرُ عَلَى غَيْرِ أُسْرَةِ الْكَاهِنِ أَنْ يَأْكُلُوا مِنَ الذَّبَائِحِ الْمُقَدَّسَةِ، سَوَاءٌ أَكَانَ ضَيْفَ الْكَاهِنِ أَمْ أَجِيرَهُ.

11 But if a priest buys a slave with his own money, or if a slave is born in his household, that slave may eat his food.

11 لَكِنْ إِذَا اشْتَرَى الْكَاهِنُ عَبْداً بِفِضَّةٍ، أَوْ وُلِدَ فِي بَيْتِهِ عَبْدٌ، فَإِنَّ ذَلِكَ الْعَبْدَ يَأْكُلُ مِنْ طَعَامِ الْكَاهِنِ.

12 If the priest’s daughter is married to a man other than a priest, she is not to eat of the sacred contributions.

12 وَإذَا تَزَوَّجَتِ ابْنَةُ الْكَاهِنِ مِنْ غَيْرِ كَاهِنٍ، فَإِنَّهَا لَا تَأْكُلُ مِنَ التَّقْدِمَاتِ الْمُقَدَّسَةِ.

13 But if a priest’s daughter with no children becomes widowed or divorced and returns to her father’s house, she may share her father’s food as in her youth. But no outsider may share it.

13 أَمَّا إِذَا أَصْبَحَتْ أَرْمَلَةً، أَوْ مُطَلَّقَةً مِنْ غَيْرِ عَائِلٍ مِنْ نَسْلِهَا، وَرَجَعَتْ إِلَى بَيْتِ أَبِيهَا كَمَا فِي أَيَّامِ صِبَاهَا، فَإِنَّهَا تَأْكُلُ مِنْ طَعَامِ أَبِيهَا. إِنَّمَا الْغَرِيبُ لَا يَأْكُلُ مِنْهُ.

14 If anyone eats a sacred offering in error, he must add a fifth to its value and give the sacred offering to the priest.

14 وَإذَا أَكَلَ أَحَدٌ مِنَ الذَّبَائِحِ الْمُقَدَّسَةِ سَهْواً، وَلَمْ يَكُنْ مِنْ نَسْلِ هَرُونَ، يَرُدُّ لِلْكَاهِنِ قِيمَةَ مَا أَكَلَهُ مِنَ الذَّبِيحَةِ، مُضَافاً إِلَيْهِ خُمْسُهُ.

15 The priests must not profane the sacred offerings that the Israelites present to the LORD

15 عَلَى الْكَهَنَةِ أَلّا يُدَنِّسُوا الذَّبَائِحَ الَّتِي يُحْضِرُهَا بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ لِلرَّبِّ،

16 by allowing the people to eat the sacred offerings and thus to bear the punishment for guilt. For I am the LORD who sanctifies them.”

16 لأَنَّهُمْ بِذَلِكَ يُحَمِّلُونَ الآكِلِينَ مِنَ الذَّبَائِحِ الْمُقَدَّسَةِ ذُنُوباً تَسْتَوْجِبُ الْعِقَابَ، لأَنِّي أَنَا الرَّبُّ الَّذِي أُقَدِّسُهَا».

17 Then the LORD said to Moses,

17 وَقَالَ الرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى:

18 “Speak to Aaron and his sons and all the Israelites and tell them, ‘Any man of the house of Israel or any foreign resident who presents a gift for a burnt offering to the LORD, whether to fulfill a vow or as a freewill offering,

18 «قُلْ لِهَرُونَ وَأَبْنَائِهِ وَسَائِرِ إِسْرَائِيلَ: كُلُّ إِسْرَائِيلِيٍّ، أَوْ مِنَ الْغُرَبَاءِ الْمُقِيمِينَ فِي إِسْرَائِيلَ يُقَدِّمُ قُرْبَاناً، سَوَاءٌ كَانَ وَفَاءً لِنَذْرٍ، أَمْ تَقْدِمَةً طَوْعِيَّةً يُقَرِّبُونَهَا مُحْرَقَةً لِلرَّبِّ،

19 must offer an unblemished male from the cattle, sheep, or goats in order for it to be accepted on your behalf.

19 تَكُونُ مُحْرَقَةً لِلرِّضَى عَنْكُمْ، ثَوْراً أَوْ كَبْشاً أَوْ تَيْساً سَلِيماً.

20 You must not present anything with a defect, because it will not be accepted on your behalf.

20 لَا تُقَرِّبُوا تَقْدِمَةً فِيهَا عَيْبٌ، لأَنَّهَا لَنْ تَكُونَ مَقْبُولَةً لِلرِّضَى عَنْكُمْ.

21 When a man presents a peace offering to the LORD from the herd or flock to fulfill a vow or as a freewill offering, it must be without blemish or defect to be acceptable.

21 وَإذَا أَصْعَدَ أَحَدُكُمْ ذَبِيحَةَ سَلامٍ لِلرَّبِّ، وَفَاءً لِنَذْرٍ، أَوْ ذَبِيحَةً طَوْعِيَّةً، فَلْتَكُنْ مِنَ الْبَقَرِ أَوِ الْغَنَمِ، سَلِيمَةً خَالِيَةً مِنْ كُلِّ عَيْبٍ لِيَرْضَى الرَّبُّ عَنْكُمْ.

22 You are not to present to the LORD any animal that is blind, injured, or maimed, or anything with a running sore, a festering rash, or a scab; you must not put any of these on the altar as a food offering to the LORD.

22 لَا تُقَرِّبُوا لِلرَّبِّ مِنَ الذَّبَائِحِ مَا هُوَ أَعْمَى أَوْ مَكْسُورٌ أَوْ مَجْرُوحٌ أَوْ بِهِ بُثُورٌ أَوْ أَجْرَبُ أَوْ أَكْلَفُ، وَلا تَجْعَلُوا مِنْهَا وَقُوداً عَلَى الْمَذْبَحِ لِلرَّبِّ.

23 You may present as a freewill offering an ox or sheep that has a deformed or stunted limb, but it is not acceptable in fulfillment of a vow.

23 أَمَّا الثَّوْرُ أَوِ الْحَمَلُ الَّذِي فِيهِ عُضْوٌ زَائِدٌ أَوْ نَاقِصٌ، فَلَكَ أَنْ تُقَرِّبَهُ تَقْدِمَةً طَوْعِيَّةً، وَلَكِنْ لَيْسَ وَفَاءً لِنَذْرٍ، فَإِنَّهُ يَكُونُ مَرْفُوضاً.

24 You are not to present to the LORD an animal whose testicles are bruised, crushed, torn, or cut; you are not to sacrifice them in your land.

24 لَا تُصْعِدُوا لِلرَّبِّ حَيَوَاناً ذَا خُصىً مَرْضُوضَةٍ أَوْ مَسْحُوقَةٍ أَوْ مَقْطُوعَةٍ. لَا تَفْعَلُوا هَذَا فِي أَرْضِكُمْ.

25 Neither you nor a foreigner shall present food to your God from any such animal. They will not be accepted on your behalf, because they are deformed and flawed.’”

25 لَا تَشْتَرُوا مِثْلَ هَذِهِ الْحَيَوَانَاتِ مِنْ غَرِيبٍ لِتُقَدِّمُوهَا ذَبَائِحَ لإِلَهِكُمْ، لأَنَّهُ لَنْ يَقْبَلَهَا مِنْكُمْ، لِمَا فِيهَا مِنْ تَشْوِيهٍ وَعَيْبٍ».

26 Then the LORD said to Moses,

26 وَقَالَ الرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى:

27 “When an ox, a sheep, or a goat is born, it must remain with its mother for seven days. From the eighth day on, it will be acceptable as a food offering presented to the LORD.

27 «مَتَى وَلَدَتْ بَقَرَةٌ أَوْ شَاةٌ أَوْ عَنْزَةٌ يَمْكُثُ وَلِيدُهَا مَعَهَا سَبْعَةَ أَيَّامٍ، ثُمَّ فِي الْيَوْمِ الثَّامِنِ يَصِحُّ تَقْدِيمُهَا قُرْبَانَ وَقُودٍ لِلرَّبِّ.

28 But you must not slaughter an ox or a sheep on the same day as its young.

28 لَا تَذْبَحُوا الْبَقَرَةَ أَوِ الشَّاةَ مَعَ ابْنِهَا فِي يَوْمٍ وَاحِدٍ.

29 When you sacrifice a thank offering to the LORD, offer it so that it may be acceptable on your behalf.

29 وَمَتَى ذَبَحْتُمْ قُرْبَانَ شُكْرٍ لِلرَّبِّ، فَاذْبَحُوهْ لِلرِّضَى عَنْكُمْ،

30 It must be eaten that same day. Do not leave any of it until morning. I am the LORD.

30 وَكُلُوهُ فِي الْيَوْمِ عَيْنِهِ، وَلا تُبْقُوا مِنْهُ شَيْئاً إِلَى الْغَدِ، فَأَنَا الرَّبُّ.

31 You are to keep My commandments and practice them. I am the LORD.

31 أَطِيعُوا وَصَايَايَ وَاعْمَلُوا بِها، فَأَنَا الرَّبُّ.

32 You must not profane My holy name. I must be acknowledged as holy among the Israelites. I am the LORD who sanctifies you,

32 وَلا تُدَنِّسُوا اسْمِي الْقُدُّوسَ، فَأَتَقَدَّسَ وَسَطَ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، فَأَنَا الرَّبُّ الَّذِي أُقَدِّسُكُمْ،

33 who brought you out of the land of Egypt to be your God. I am the LORD.”

33 وَالَّذِي أَخْرَجَكُمْ مِنْ دِيَارِ مِصْرَ لِيَكُونَ لَكُمْ إِلَهاً. أَنَا الرَّبُّ».
