Locutus quoque est Dominus ad Moysen, dicens:

And the Lord spoke to Moses

And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:

Loquere ad Aaron et ad filios ejus, ut caveant ab his quæ consecrata sunt filiorum Israël, et non contaminent nomen sanctificatorum mihi, quæ ipsi offerunt. Ego Dominus.

giving him this command for Aaron and his sons: They must beware what use they make of the offerings brought by Israel; they must not profane the honour of these consecrated things; of things consecrated to the Lord.

Speak to Aaron and to his sons, that they beware of those things that are consecrated of the children of Israel, and defile not the name of the things sanctified to me, which they offer. I am the Lord.

Dic ad eos, et ad posteros eorum: Omnis homo qui accesserit de stirpe vestra ad ea quæ consecrata sunt, et quæ obtulerunt filii Israël Domino, in quo est immunditia, peribit coram Domino. Ego sum Dominus.

Tell them, tell all who follow, that if any of their race comes near these sacred offerings in a state of defilement, he is lost to my service; the service of the Lord.

Say to them and to their posterity: Every man of your race, that approacheth to those things that are consecrated, and which the children of Israel have offered to the Lord, in whom there is uncleanness, shall perish before the Lord. I am the Lord.

Homo de semine Aaron, qui fuerit leprosus, aut patiens fluxum seminis, non vescetur de his quæ sanctificata sunt mihi, donec sanetur. Qui tetigerit immundum super mortuo, et ex quo egreditur semen quasi coitus,

Any of Aaron’s race who is a leper, or has a running at the reins, must cease to have any share of the hallowed food, until he is cured. Anyone of them who has touched a thing defiled by death, or has lost the seed of procreation,

The man of the seed of Aaron, that is a leper, or that suffereth a running of the seed, shall not eat of those things that are sanctified to me, until he be healed. He that toucheth any thing unclean by occasion of the dead, and he whose seed goeth from him as in generation,

et qui tangit reptile, et quodlibet immundum cujus tactus est sordidus,

or perhaps has touched some creeping animal, or anything whose touch defiles,

And he that toucheth a creeping thing, or any unclean thing, the touching of which is defiling,

immundus erit usque ad vesperum, et non vescetur his quæ sanctificata sunt: sed cum laverit carnem suam aqua,

remains unclean till sundown, so that he must not share the holy food. Not till he has bathed in water,

Shall be unclean until the evening, and shall not eat those things that are sanctified: but when he hath washed his flesh with water,

et occubuerit sol, tunc mundatus vescetur de sanctificatis, quia cibus illius est.

and waited for the sun to go down, may he enjoy his privilege of sharing in it.

And the sun is down, then being purified, he shall eat of the sanctified things, because it is his meat.

Morticinum et captum a bestia non comedent, nec polluentur in eis. Ego sum Dominus.

The priests must not defile themselves by eating anything that falls dead, or has been a prey of a wild beast; they are the Lord’s priests.

That which dieth of itself, and that which was taken by a beast, they shall not eat, nor be defiled therewith. I am the Lord.

Custodiant præcepta mea, ut non subjaceant peccato, et moriantur in sanctuario, cum polluerint illud. Ego Dominus qui sanctifico eos.

They must observe my commands, and commit no fault; death shall overtake them, there in my sanctuary, if they profane it. It is I, the Lord, who have set them apart.

Let them keep my precepts, that they may not fall into sin, and die in the sanctuary, when they shall have defiled it. I am the Lord who sanctify them.

Omnis alienigena non comedet de sanctificatis; inquilinus sacerdotis et mercenarius non vescentur ex eis.

No one that is not of their family may share the holy food, no guest the priest entertains, no hired servant of his;

No stranger shall eat of the sanctified things: a sojourner of the priests, or a hired servant, shall not eat of them.

Quem autem sacerdos emerit, et qui vernaculus domus ejus fuerit, his comedent ex eis.

only a slave bought with his money or born in his house has the privilege.

But he whom the priest hath bought, and he that is his servant, born in his house, these shall eat of them.

Si filia sacerdotis cuilibet ex populo nupta fuerit, de his quæ sanctificata sunt, et de primitiis non vescetur.

If a priest’s daughter marries out of her clan, she loses her right to these hallowed offerings;

If the daughter of a priest be married to any of the people, she shall not eat of those things that are sanctified, nor of the firstfruits.

Sin autem vidua, vel repudiata, et absque liberis reversa fuerit ad domum patris sui: sicut puella consueverat, aletur cibis patris sui. Omnis alienigena comedendi ex eis non habet potestatem.

but if she becomes a widow, or is rejected by her husband and comes home childless, she may eat with her family as when she was still a maid. It is only those who belong to another clan that may not share it.

But if she be a widow, or divorced, and having no children return to her father’s house, she shall eat of her father’s meats, as she was wont to do when she was a maid, no stranger hath leave to eat of them.

Qui comederit de sanctificatis per ignorantiam, addet quintam partem cum eo quod comedit, et dabit sacerdoti in sanctuarium.

If anyone partakes of the holy food through inadvertence, he must go to the sanctuary and make restitution to the priest of the same quantity, with a fifth part added.

He that eateth of the sanctified things through ignorance, shall add the fifth part with that which he ate, and shall give it to the priest into the sanctuary.

Nec contaminabunt sanctificata filiorum Israël, quæ offerunt Domino:

There must be no profaning what the sons of Israel have offered to their God;

And they shall not profane the sanctified things of the children of Israel, which they offer to the Lord:

ne forte sustineant iniquitatem delicti sui, cum sanctificata comederint. Ego Dominus qui sanctifico eos.

they will be held to account for it, if they eat this holy food. It is I, the Lord, who have set my priests apart.

Lest perhaps they bear the iniquity of their trespass, when they shall have eaten the sanctified things. I am the Lord who sanctify them.

Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen, dicens:

And the Lord spoke to Moses

And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:

Loquere ad Aaron et filios ejus, et ad omnes filios Israël, dicesque ad eos: Homo de domo Israël, et de advenis qui habitant apud vos, qui obtulerit oblationem suam, vel vota solvens, vel sponte offerens, quidquid illud obtulerit in holocaustum Domini,

bidding him tell Aaron and his sons and all Israel: When any Israelite, or any alien dwelling among you, would offer the Lord burnt-sacrifice, either in payment of a vow, or out of devotion,

Speak to Aaron, and to his sons, and to all the children of Israel, and thou shalt say to them: The man of the house of Israel, and of the strangers who dwell with you, that offereth his oblation, either paying his vows, or offering of his own accord, whatsoever it be which he presenteth for a holocaust of the Lord,

ut offeratur per vos, masculus immaculatus erit ex bobus, et ovibus, et ex capris:

and must present it through your hands, it must be a male victim, ox or sheep or goat, without blemish.

To be offered by you, it shall be a male without blemish of the beeves, or of the sheep, or of the goats.

si maculam habuerit, non offeretis, neque erit acceptabile.

If it has any blemish, it is unacceptable, and must not be offered.

If it have a blemish you shall not offer it, neither shall it be acceptable.

Homo qui obtulerit victimam pacificorum Domino, vel vota solvens, vel sponte offerens, tam de bobus quam de ovibus, immaculatum offeret ut acceptabile sit: omnis macula non erit in eo.

And anyone who makes the Lord a welcome-offering, either in payment of a vow or out of devotion, must offer an ox or a sheep that is without blemish, if it is to be acceptable. It must have no blemish of any sort;

The man that offereth a victim of peace offerings to the Lord, either paying his vows, or offering of his own accord, whether of beeves or of sheep, shall offer it without blemish, that it may be acceptable: there shall be no blemish in it.

Si cæcum fuerit, si fractum, si cicatricem habens, si papulas, aut scabiem, aut impetiginem: non offeretis ea Domino, nec adolebitis ex eis super altare Domini.

if it is blind, or crippled, or scarred, disfigured by blisters or scab or mange, you must not offer it to the Lord, or burn it on the Lord’s altar.

If it be blind, or broken, or have a scar or blisters, or a scab, or a dry scurf: you shall not offer them to the Lord, nor burn any thing of them upon the Lord’s altar.

Bovem et ovem, aure et cauda amputatis, voluntarie offerre potes, votum autem ex eis solvi non potest.

Ox or sheep that has ears or tail cut off may be offered out of devotion, but not in payment of a vow.

An ox or a sheep, that hath the ear and the tail cut off, thou mayst offer voluntarily: but a vow may not be paid with them.

Omne animal, quod vel contritis, vel tusis, vel sectis ablatisque testiculis est, non offeretis Domino, et in terra vestra hoc omnino ne faciatis.

No beast that has suffered crushing or bruising or gelding may be offered to the Lord; there must be no such custom in your country.

You shall not offer to the Lord any beast that hath the testicles bruised, or crushed, or cut and taken away: neither shall you do any such thing in your land.

De manu alienigenæ non offeretis panes Deo vestro, et quidquid aliud dare voluerit, quia corrupta, et maculata sunt omnia: non suscipietis ea.

You must not offer to your God either bread or any other gift that comes from an alien; such gifts are tainted, there is a blemish in them, they shall find no acceptance with you.

You shall not offer bread to your God, from the hand of a stranger, nor any other thing that he would give: because they are all corrupted, and defiled: you shall not receive them.

Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen, dicens:

And the Lord gave Moses this message:

And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:

Bos, ovis et capra, cum genita fuerint, septem diebus erunt sub ubere matris suæ: die autem octavo, et deinceps, offerri poterunt Domino.

Calf, or lamb, or kid, when it is newly born, must be allowed to suck for a whole week; only on the eighth day and afterwards may it be offered to the Lord.

When a bullock, or a sheep, or a goat, is brought forth, they shall be seven days under the udder of their dam: but the eighth day, and thenceforth, they may be offered to the Lord.

Sive illa bos, sive ovis, non immolabuntur una die cum fœtibus suis.

Cow or ewe, the dam must not be slaughtered on the same day as its young.

Whether it be a cow, or a sheep, they shall not be sacrificed the same day with their young ones.

Si immolaveritis hostiam pro gratiarum actione Domino, ut possit esse placabilis,

When you sacrifice a victim to the Lord by way of welcome-offering, to win his favour,

If you immolate a victim for thanksgiving to the Lord, that he may be favourable,

eodem die comedetis eam: non remanebit quidquam in mane alterius diei. Ego Dominus.

you must eat it the same day, none must be left over till the morrow; the Lord will have his precepts observed.

You shall eat it the same day, there shall not any of it remain until the morning of the next day. I am the Lord.

Custodite mandata mea, et facite ea. Ego Dominus.

Remember these commandments of mine, and live by them; the Lord’s commandments.

Keep my commandments, and do them. I am the Lord.

Ne polluatis nomen meum sanctum, ut sanctificer in medio filiorum Israël. Ego Dominus qui sanctifico vos,

Do not dishonour my holy name; it is among the sons of Israel that I would vindicate my holiness, I, the Lord, who have set you apart for myself,

Profane not my holy name, that I may be sanctified in the midst of the children of Israel. I am the Lord who sanctify you,

et eduxi de terra Ægypti, ut essem vobis in Deum. Ego Dominus.

and rescued you from the land of Egypt, so as to be your God; am I not the Lord?

And who brought you out of the land of Egypt, that I might be your God: I am the Lord.
