1 A nd Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, took either of them his censer, and put fire therein, and put incense thereon, and offered strange fire before the Lord, which he commanded them not.

وَأخَذَ ابْنا هارُونَ، نادابُ وَأبِيهُو، كُلُّ واحِدٍ مِجمَرَتَهُ، وَوَضَعا فِيهما ناراً، وَوَضَعا عَلَى النّارِ بَخُوراً، وَقَدَّما فِي حَضْرَةِ اللهِ ناراً مِنْ مَصدَرٍ غَرِيبٍ لَمْ يَأْمُرْهُما اللهُ بِاستِخدامِها.

2 A nd there went out fire from the Lord, and devoured them, and they died before the Lord.

فَخَرَجَتْ نارٌ مِنْ مَحضَرِ اللهِ وَأحرَقَتْهُما، فَماتا فِي حَضْرَةِ اللهِ.

3 T hen Moses said unto Aaron, This is it that the Lord spake, saying, I will be sanctified in them that come nigh me, and before all the people I will be glorified. And Aaron held his peace.

حِينَئِذٍ، قالَ مُوسَى لِهارُونَ: «هَذا ما قَصَدَهُ اللهُ بِقَولِهِ: ‹سَأتَقَدَّسُ بِالكَهَنَةِ الَّذِينَ يَقتَرِبُونَ إلَيَّ، وَسَأتَمَجَّدُ أمامَ كُلِّ الشَّعبِ.›» وَكانَ هارُونُ صامِتاً.

4 A nd Moses called Mishael and Elzaphan, the sons of Uzziel the uncle of Aaron, and said unto them, Come near, carry your brethren from before the sanctuary out of the camp.

وَدَعا مُوسَى مِيشائِيلَ وَألْصافانَ ابْنَي عُزِّيئِيلَ، عَمِّ هارُونَ. وَقالَ لَهُما: «تَعالا وَاحْمِلا قَرِيبَيكُما إلَى خارِجِ المُخَيَّمِ مِنْ أمامِ المَكانِ المُقَدَّسِ.»

5 S o they went near, and carried them in their coats out of the camp; as Moses had said.

فَأتَيا وَحَمَلاهُما إلَى خارِجِ المُخَيَّمِ وَهُما فِي ثِيابِهِما الخاصَّةِ، كَما قالَ مُوسَى.

6 A nd Moses said unto Aaron, and unto Eleazar and unto Ithamar, his sons, Uncover not your heads, neither rend your clothes; lest ye die, and lest wrath come upon all the people: but let your brethren, the whole house of Israel, bewail the burning which the Lord hath kindled.

ثُمَّ قالَ مُوسَى لِهارُونَ وَابْنَيهِ، ألِيعازارَ وَإيثامارَ: «لا تَشُدُّوا شَعرَكُمْ وَلا تُمَزِّقُوا ثِيابَكُمْ، لِئَلّا تَمُوتُوا، وَلِئَلّا يَغضَبَ اللهُ عَلَى كُلِّ الشَّعبِ. وَأمّا أقرِباؤكُمْ، كُلُّ بَنِي إسْرائِيلَ، فَيُمكِنُهُمْ أنْ يَبكُوا بِسَبَبِ إحراقِ اللهِ لِنادابَ وَأبِيهُو.

7 A nd ye shall not go out from the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, lest ye die: for the anointing oil of the Lord is upon you. And they did according to the word of Moses.

لا تَخرُجُوا إلَى خارِجِ مَدْخَلِ خَيمَةِ الاجْتِماعِ، وَإلّا فَإنَّكُمْ سَتَمُوتُونَ، لِأنَّ زَيتَ مَسحَةِ اللهِ عَلَيكُمْ.» فَعَمِلُوا كَما قالَ مُوسَى لَهُمْ.

8 A nd the Lord spake unto Aaron, saying,

ثُمَّ قالَ اللهُ لِهارُونَ:

9 D o not drink wine nor strong drink, thou, nor thy sons with thee, when ye go into the tabernacle of the congregation, lest ye die: it shall be a statute for ever throughout your generations:

«لا تَشرَبْ أنتَ وَابْناؤكَ خَمْراً وَلا شَراباً مُسكِراً حِينَ تَدخُلُونَ إلَى خَيمَةِ الاجْتِماعِ لِئَلّا تَمُوتُوا. هَذِهِ شَرِيعَةٌ دائِمَةٌ لَكُمْ جِيلاً بَعْدَ جِيلٍ.

10 a nd that ye may put difference between holy and unholy, and between unclean and clean;

مَيِّزُوا بَينَ ما هُوَ مُقَدَّسٌ وَما هُوَ نَجِسٌ، وَبَينَ ما هُوَ طاهِرٌ وَما هُوَ نَجِسٌ.

11 a nd that ye may teach the children of Israel all the statutes which the Lord hath spoken unto them by the hand of Moses.

لِأنَّكُمْ سَتُعَلِّمُونَ بَنِي إسْرائِيلَ كُلَّ الشَّرائِعِ الَّتِي أعطاها اللهُ لَهُمْ مِنْ خِلالِ مُوسَى.»

12 A nd Moses spake unto Aaron, and unto Eleazar and unto Ithamar, his sons that were left, Take the meat offering that remaineth of the offerings of the Lord made by fire, and eat it without leaven beside the altar: for it is most holy:

وَقالَ مُوسَى لِهارُونَ وَابْنَيهِ الباقِيَينِ، ألِيعازارَ وَإيثامارَ: «خُذُوا تَقدِمَةَ الطَّحِينِ الباقِيَةِ مِنْ تَقدِماتِ اللهِ ، وَكُلُوها بِلا خَمِيرٍ بِجانِبِ المَذبَحِ، لِأنَّها نَصِيبٌ مُخَصَّصٌ لِلكَهَنَةِ بِالكامِلِ.

13 a nd ye shall eat it in the holy place, because it is thy due, and thy sons’ due, of the sacrifices of the Lord made by fire: for so I am commanded.

كُلُوها فِي مَكانٍ مُقَدَّسٍ لِأنَّها حِصَّتُكَ وَحِصَّةُ أبْنائِكَ مِنْ تَقدِماتِ اللهِ ، لِأنَّ اللهَ أمَرَنِي بِهَذا.

14 A nd the wave breast and heave shoulder shall ye eat in a clean place; thou, and thy sons, and thy daughters with thee: for they be thy due, and thy sons’ due, which are given out of the sacrifices of peace offerings of the children of Israel.

«وَأمّا صَدرُ وَفَخذُ التَّقدِمَةِ اللَّذانِ رَفَعَهُما الكَاهِنُ قِي حَضرَةِ اللهِ، فَتَأكُلُونَهما فِي مَكانٍ طاهِرٍ أنتَ وَأبناؤُكَ. قَدْ أُعطِيا كَحِصَّةٍ لَكَ وَلِأبنائِكَ مِنْ ذَبائِحِ السَّلامِ الَّتِي يُقَدِّمُها بَنُو إسْرائِيلَ.

15 T he heave shoulder and the wave breast shall they bring with the offerings made by fire of the fat, to wave it for a wave offering before the Lord; and it shall be thine, and thy sons’ with thee, by a statute for ever; as the Lord hath commanded.

يُقَدِّمُ الشَّعبُ السّاقَ وَالصَّدرَ المَرْفُوعانِ فِي حَضرَةِ اللهِ مَعَ تَقدِماتِ الشَّحمِ المُعَدَّةِ بِالنّارِ إلَى مَحْضَرِ اللهِ. هَذِهِ حِصَّتُكَ الدّائِمَةُ أنتَ وَأبناؤُكَ كَما أمَرَ اللهُ.»

16 A nd Moses diligently sought the goat of the sin offering, and, behold, it was burnt: and he was angry with Eleazar and Ithamar, the sons of Aaron which were left alive, saying,

ثُمَّ سَألَ مُوسَى عَنْ تَيسِ الخَطِيَّةِ، وَكانَ قَدِ احْتَرَقَ. فَغَضِبَ مُوسَى عَلَى ألِيعازارَ وَإيثامارَ، ابْنَي هارُونَ الباقِيَينِ، وَقالَ:

17 W herefore have ye not eaten the sin offering in the holy place, seeing it is most holy, and God hath given it you to bear the iniquity of the congregation, to make atonement for them before the Lord ?

«لِماذا لَمْ تَأكُلا ذَبِيحَةَ الخَطِيَّةِ فِي مَكانٍ مُقَدَّسٍ؟ فَهِيَ نَصِيبٌ مُخَصَّصٌ لَكُما بِالكامِلِ، وَقَدْ أعطاها اللهُ لَكُما لإزالَةِ ذَنبِ الشَّعبِ وَعَمَلِ كَفّارَةٍ لَهُ فِي حَضْرَةِ اللهِ.

18 B ehold, the blood of it was not brought in within the holy place: ye should indeed have eaten it in the holy place, as I commanded.

لَمْ يُحْضَرْ دَمُهُما إلَى داخِلِ المَكانِ المُقَدَّسِ، لِذا كانَ يَنبَغِي أنْ تَأكُلاها فِي المَكانِ المُقَدَّسِ كَما أمَرْتُ.»

19 A nd Aaron said unto Moses, Behold, this day have they offered their sin offering and their burnt offering before the Lord; and such things have befallen me: and if I had eaten the sin offering to day, should it have been accepted in the sight of the Lord ?

فَقالَ هارُونُ لِمُوسَى: «لَقَدْ قَدَّما اليَومَ عَنْهُما ذَبِيحَتَي خَطِيَّةٍ وَتَقدِمَتَينِ صاعِدَتَينِ، وَانظُرْ ما الَّذِي حَدَثَ! فَهَلْ يَرضَى اللهُ بِأنْ آكُلَ هَذِهِ الذَّبائِحَ؟»

20 A nd when Moses heard that, he was content.

وَحِينَ سَمِعَ مُوسَى هَذا اقتَنَعَ.
