BSB

1 Then the LORD said to Moses,

SVD

1 وَكَلَّمَ ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى قَائِلًا:

BSB

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.

SVD

2 «كَلِّمْ هَارُونَ وَبَنِيهِ أَنْ يَتَوَقَّوْا أَقْدَاسَ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ ٱلَّتِي يُقَدِّسُونَهَا لِي وَلَا يُدَنِّسُوا ٱسْمِي ٱلْقُدُّوسَ. أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ.

BSB

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.

SVD

3 قُلْ لَهُمْ: فِي أَجْيَالِكُمْ كُلُّ إِنْسَانٍ مِنْ جَمِيعِ نَسْلِكُمُ ٱقْتَرَبَ إِلَى ٱلْأَقْدَاسِ ٱلَّتِي يُقَدِّسُهَا بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ لِلرَّبِّ، وَنَجَاسَتُهُ عَلَيْهِ، تُقْطَعُ تِلْكَ ٱلنَّفْسُ مِنْ أَمَامِي. أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ.

BSB

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,

SVD

4 كُلُّ إِنْسَانٍ مِنْ نَسْلِ هَارُونَ وَهُوَ أَبْرَصُ أَوْ ذُو سَيْلٍ، لَا يَأْكُلْ مِنَ ٱلْأَقْدَاسِ حَتَّى يَطْهُرَ. وَمَنْ مَسَّ شَيْئًا نَجِسًا لِمَيْتٍ، أَوْ إِنْسَانٌ حَدَثَ مِنْهُ ٱضْطِجَاعُ زَرْعٍ،

BSB

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

SVD

5 أَوْ إِنْسَانٌ مَسَّ دَبِيبًا يَتَنَجَّسُ بِهِ، أَوْ إِنْسَانًا يَتَنَجَّسُ بِهِ لِنَجَاسَةٍ فِيهِ،

BSB

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.

SVD

6 فَٱلَّذِي يَمَسُّ ذَلِكَ يَكُونُ نَجِسًا إِلَى ٱلْمَسَاءِ، وَلَا يَأْكُلْ مِنَ ٱلْأَقْدَاسِ، بَلْ يَرْحَضُ جَسَدَهُ بِمَاءٍ.

BSB

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

SVD

7 فَمَتَى غَرَبَتِ ٱلشَّمْسُ يَكُونُ طَاهِرًا، ثُمَّ يَأْكُلُ مِنَ ٱلْأَقْدَاسِ لِأَنَّهَا طَعَامُهُ.

BSB

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

SVD

8 مِيْتَةً أَوْ فَرِيسَةً لَا يَأْكُلْ فَيَتَنَجَّسَ بِهَا. أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ.

BSB

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.

SVD

9 فَيَحْفَظُونَ شَعَائِرِي لِكَيْ لَا يَحْمِلُوا لِأَجْلِهَا خَطِيَّةً يَمُوتُونَ بِهَا لِأَنَّهُمْ يُدَنِّسُونَهَا. أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ مُقَدِّسُهُمْ.

BSB

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.

SVD

10 «وَكُلُّ أَجْنَبِيٍّ لَا يَأْكُلُ قُدْسًا. نَزِيلُ كَاهِنٍ وَأَجِيرُهُ لَا يَأْكُلُونَ قُدْسًا.

BSB

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.

SVD

11 لَكِنْ إِذَا ٱشْتَرَى كَاهِنٌ أَحَدًا شِرَاءَ فِضَّةٍ، فَهُوَ يَأْكُلُ مِنْهُ، وَٱلْمَوْلُودُ فِي بَيْتِهِ. هُمَا يَأْكُلَانِ مِنْ طَعَامِهِ.

BSB

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

SVD

12 وَإِذَا صَارَتِ ٱبْنَةُ كَاهِنٍ لِرَجُلٍ أَجْنَبِيٍّ لَا تَأْكُلُ مِنْ رَفِيعَةِ ٱلْأَقْدَاسِ.

BSB

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.

SVD

13 وَأَمَّا ٱبْنَةُ كَاهِنٍ قَدْ صَارَتْ أَرْمَلَةً أَوْ مُطَلَّقَةً، وَلَمْ يَكُنْ لَهَا نَسْلٌ، وَرَجَعَتْ إِلَى بَيْتِ أَبِيهَا كَمَا فِي صِبَاهَا، فَتَأْكُلُ مِنْ طَعَامِ أَبِيهَا. لَكِنَّ كُلَّ أَجْنَبِيٍّ لَا يَأْكُلُ مِنْهُ.

BSB

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.

SVD

14 وَإِذَا أَكَلَ إِنْسَانٌ قُدْسًا سَهْوًا، يَزِيدُ عَلَيْهِ خُمْسَهُ وَيَدْفَعُ ٱلْقُدْسَ لِلْكَاهِنِ.

BSB

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

SVD

15 فَلَا يُدَنِّسُونَ أَقْدَاسَ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ ٱلَّتِي يَرْفَعُونَهَا لِلرَّبِّ،

BSB

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.”

SVD

16 فَيُحَمِّلُونَهُمْ ذَنْبَ إِثْمٍ بِأَكْلِهِمْ أَقْدَاسَهُمْ. لِأَنِّي أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ مُقَدِّسُهُمْ».

BSB

17 Then the LORD said to Moses,

SVD

17 وَكَلَّمَ ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى قَائِلًا:

BSB

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,

SVD

18 «كَلِّمْ هَارُونَ وَبَنِيهِ وَجَمِيعَ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ وَقُلْ لَهُمْ: كُلُّ إِنْسَانٍ مِنْ بَيْتِ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَمِنَ ٱلْغُرَبَاءِ فِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، قَرَّبَ قُرْبَانَهُ مِنْ جَمِيعِ نُذُورِهِمْ وَجَمِيعِ نَوَافِلِهِمِ ٱلَّتِي يُقَرِّبُونَهَا لِلرَّبِّ مُحْرَقَةً،

BSB

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

SVD

19 فَلِلرِّضَا عَنْكُمْ يَكُونُ ذَكَرًا صَحِيحًا مِنَ ٱلْبَقَرِ أَوِ ٱلْغَنَمِ أَوِ ٱلْمَعْزِ.

BSB

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

SVD

20 كُلُّ مَا كَانَ فِيهِ عَيْبٌ لَا تُقَرِّبُوهُ لِأَنَّهُ لَا يَكُونُ لِلرِّضَا عَنْكُمْ.

BSB

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.

SVD

21 وَإِذَا قَرَّبَ إِنْسَانٌ ذَبِيحَةَ سَلَامَةٍ لِلرَّبِّ وَفَاءً لِنَذْرٍ، أَوْ نَافِلَةً مِنَ ٱلْبَقَرِ أَوِ ٱلْأَغْنَامِ، تَكُونُ صَحِيحَةً لِلرِّضَا. كُلُّ عَيْبٍ لَا يَكُونُ فِيهَا.

BSB

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.

SVD

22 ٱلْأَعْمَى وَٱلْمَكْسُورُ وَٱلْمَجْرُوحُ وَٱلْبَثِيرُ وَٱلْأَجْرَبُ وَٱلْأَكْلَفُ، هَذِهِ لَا تُقَرِّبُوهَا لِلرَّبِّ، وَلَا تَجْعَلُوا مِنْهَا وَقُودًا عَلَى ٱلْمَذْبَحِ لِلرَّبِّ.

BSB

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.

SVD

23 وَأَمَّا ٱلثَّوْرُ أَوِ ٱلشَّاةُ ٱلزَّوَائِدِيُّ أَوِ ٱلْقُزُمُ فَنَافِلَةً تَعْمَلُهُ، وَلَكِنْ لِنَذْرٍ لَا يُرْضَى بِهِ.

BSB

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.

SVD

24 وَمَرْضُوضَ ٱلْخِصْيَةِ وَمَسْحُوقَهَا وَمَقْطُوعَهَا لَا تُقَرِّبُوا لِلرَّبِّ. وَفِي أَرْضِكُمْ لَا تَعْمَلُوهَا.

BSB

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.’”

SVD

25 وَمِنْ يَدِ ٱبْنِ ٱلْغَرِيبِ لَا تُقَرِّبُوا خُبْزَ إِلَهِكُمْ مِنْ جَمِيعِ هَذِهِ، لِأَنَّ فِيهَا فَسَادَهَا. فِيهَا عَيْبٌ لَا يُرْضَى بِهَا عَنْكُمْ».

BSB

26 Then the LORD said to Moses,

SVD

26 وَكَلَّمَ ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى قَائِلًا:

BSB

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.

SVD

27 «مَتَى وُلِدَ بَقَرٌ أَوْ غَنَمٌ أَوْ مِعْزًى يَكُونُ سَبْعَةَ أَيَّامٍ تَحْتَ أُمِّهِ، ثُمَّ مِنَ ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلثَّامِنِ فَصَاعِدًا يُرْضَى بِهِ قُرْبَانَ وَقُودٍ لِلرَّبِّ.

BSB

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

SVD

28 وَأَمَّا ٱلْبَقَرَةُ أَوِ ٱلشَّاةُ فَلَا تَذْبَحُوهَا وَٱبْنَهَا فِي يَوْمٍ وَاحِدٍ.

BSB

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

SVD

29 وَمَتَى ذَبَحْتُمْ ذَبِيحَةَ شُكْرٍ لِلرَّبِّ، فَلِلرِّضَا عَنْكُمْ تَذْبَحُونَهَا.

BSB

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

SVD

30 فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ تُؤْكَلُ. لَا تُبْقُوا مِنْهَا إِلَى ٱلْغَدِ. أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ.

BSB

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

SVD

31 فَتَحْفَظُونَ وَصَايَايَ وَتَعْمَلُونَهَا. أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ.

BSB

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

SVD

32 وَلَا تُدَنِّسُونَ ٱسْمِي ٱلْقُدُّوسَ، فَأَتَقَدَّسُ فِي وَسَطِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ. أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ مُقَدِّسُكُمُ

BSB

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

SVD

33 ٱلَّذِي أَخْرَجَكُمْ مِنْ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ لِيَكُونَ لَكُمْ إِلَهًا. أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ».
