1 و َقالَ اللهُ لِمُوسَى:

And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,

2 « قُلْ لِبَنِي إسْرائِيلَ: كُلُّ واحِدٍ مِنْ بَنِي إسْرائِيلَ أوِ الغُرَباءِ السّاكِنِينَ فِي إسْرائِيلَ يُقَدِّمُ مِنْ أولادِهِ لِلإلَهِ مُولَكَ، يَنبَغِي أنْ يُقتَلَ. عَلَى شَعبِ الأرْضِ أنْ يَقتُلُوهُ بِرَجمِهِ بِالحِجارَةِ.

Thou shalt say also to the children of Israel, Every one of the children of Israel, or of the strangers who sojourn in Israel, that giveth of his seed unto Molech, shall certainly be put to death: the people of the land shall stone him with stones.

3 ف َسَأُواجِهُهُ وَسَأعزِلُهُ مِنَ الشَّعبِ، لِأنَّهُ أعطَى مِنْ أولادِهِ لِلإلَهِ مُولَكَ فَنَجَّسَ مَكانِيَ المُقَدَّسَ، وَلَمْ يُكْرِمْ اسْمِي المُقَدَّسَ.

And I will set my face against that man, and will cut him off from among his people; because he hath given of his seed unto Molech, so as to make my sanctuary unclean, and to profane my holy name.

4 ل َكِنْ إنْ تَجاهَلَ شَعبُ الأرْضِ ذَلِكَ الرَّجُلَ الَّذِي أعطَى مِنْ أولادِهِ لِلإلَهِ مُولَكَ فَلَمْ يَقتُلُوهُ،

And if the people of the land do any ways hide their eyes from that man, when he giveth of his seed unto Molech, that they kill him not,

5 ف َسَأُواجِهُ ذَلِكَ الرَّجُلِ وَعائِلَتِهِ وَسَأعزِلُهُمْ مِنْ شَعبِهِمْ ذَلِكَ الرَّجُلَ وَالَّذِينَ يَخُونُونَنِي وَيَسِيرُونَ وَراءَ الإلَهِ مُولَكَ.

then I will set my face against that man, and against his family, and will cut him off, and all that go a whoring after him, to commit whoredom with Molech, from among their people.

6 « إنْ خانَنِي أحَدٌ وَالتَجَأ لِلوُسَطاءِ وَالمُشَعوِذاتِ لِأجلِ النَّصِيحَةِ، فَسَأُواجِهُهُ وَسَأقطَعُهُ مِنَ الشَّعبِ.

—And the soul that turneth unto necromancers and unto soothsayers, to go a whoring after them, I will set my face against that soul, and will cut him off from among his people.

7 « كَرِّسُوا أنفُسَكُمْ وَكُونُوا قِدِّيسِينَ، لِأنِّي أنا إلَهُكُمْ.

Hallow yourselves therefore, and be holy; for I am Jehovah your God.

8 « احفَظُوا شَرائِعِي وَاعمَلُوا بِها. أنا اللهُ الَّذِي أُقَدِّسُكُمْ.

And ye shall observe my statutes, and do them: I am Jehovah who hallow you.

9 « إنْ شَتَمَ أحَدٌ أباهُ أوْ أُمَّهُ فَيَنبَغِي أنْ يُعدَمَ. قَدْ شَتَمَ أباهُ وَأُمَّهُ، فَهُوَ مَسؤُولٌ عَنْ مَوتِهِ. عُقُوباتُ الخَطايا الجِنسِيَّة

Whatever man revileth his father and his mother shall certainly be put to death: he hath reviled his father and his mother; his blood is upon him.

10 « إنْ زَنَى رَجُلٌ بِزَوجَةِ رَجُلٍ آخَرَ، فَإنَّهُ يَنبَغِي إعدامُ الرَّجُلِ وَالمَرأةِ اللَذينِ زَنَيا.

And a man that committeth adultery with a man's wife, who committeth adultery with his neighbour's wife,—the adulterer and the adulteress shall certainly be put to death.

11 إ نْ عاشَرَ رَجُلٌ زَوجَةَ أبِيهِ، فَإنَّهُ قَدْ جَلَبَ العارَ لِأبِيهِ. يَنبَغِي إعدامُ الرَّجُلِ وَالمَرأةِ. هُما مَسؤُولانِ عَنْ مَوتِهِما.

And a man that lieth with his father's wife hath uncovered his father's nakedness: both of them shall certainly be put to death; their blood is upon them.

12 إ نْ عاشَرَ رَجُلٌ كِنَّتَهُ، فَإنَّهُ يَنبَغِي إعدامُهُما. قَدِ ارتَكَبا انحِرافاً عَظِيماً. هُما مَسؤُولانِ عَنْ مَوتِهِما.

And if a man lie with his daughter-in-law, both of them shall certainly be put to death: they have wrought confusion; their blood is upon them.

13 إ نْ عاشَرَ رَجُلٌ رَجُلاً آخَرَ كَما يُعاشِرُ امْرأةً، فَإنَّ كِلَيهِما قَدْ عَمِلا خَطِيَّةً بَغِيضَةً، وَيَنبَغِي إعدامُهُما. هُما مَسؤُولانِ عَنْ مَوتِهِما.

And if a man lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall certainly be put to death; their blood is upon them.

14 إ نْ تَزَوَّجَ رَجُلٌ امْرأةً وَأُمَّها، فَهَذا شَرٌّ. لِيَحْرِقْهُ الشَّعبُ هُوَ وَالمَرأتَينِ بِالنّارِ حَتَّى المَوتِ، لِئَلّا يَكُونَ هَذا الشَّرُّ فِي وَسَطِكُمْ.

And if a man take a wife and her mother, it is infamy: they shall burn him and them with fire, that there be no infamy among you.

15 « الرَّجُلُ الَّذِي يُعاشِرُ حَيَواناً يَنبَغِي إعدامُهُ، كَما يَنبَغِي أنْ تَقتُلُوا الحَيوانَ.

And if a man lie with a beast for copulation, he shall certainly be put to death; and ye shall kill the beast.

16 و َإنْ عاشَرَتِ امْرأةٌ حَيواناً، فَيَنبَغِي إعدامُ المَرأةِ وَالحَيوانِ. يَنبَغِي قَتلُهُما. هُما مَسؤُولانِ عَنْ مَوتِهِما.

And if a woman approach unto any beast to gender therewith, thou shalt kill the woman and the beast: they shall certainly be put to death; their blood is upon them.

17 « إنْ تَزَوَّجَ رَجُلٌ بِأُختِهِ غَيْرِ الشَّقِيقَةِ، ابْنَةِ أبِيهِ أوِ ابْنَةِ أُمِّهِ، فَعاشَرَها وَعاشَرَتْهُ، فَهَذا عارٌ. يَنبَغِي عَزلُهُما مِنْ شَعبِهِما أمامَ عائِلَتَيهِما. قَدْ عاشَرَ أُختَهُ، فَيَنبَغِي أنْ يُعاقَبَ عَلَى خَطِيَّتِهِ.

And if a man take his sister, his father's daughter, or his mother's daughter, and see her nakedness, and she see his nakedness, that is a disgrace; and they shall be cut off before the eyes of the children of their people: he hath uncovered his sister's nakedness; he shall bear his iniquity.

18 إ نْ عاشَرَ رَجُلٌ امْرأةً فِي فَترَةِ حَيضِها الشَّهرِيَّةِ فَكَشَفَ مَصدَرَ دَمِها، وَهِيَ كَشَفَتْ مَصدَرَ دَمِها، فَيَنبَغِي أنْ يُقطَعا مِنْ شَعبِهِما.

And if a man shall lie with a woman in her infirmity, and uncover her nakedness, her flux doth he lay bare, and she hath uncovered the fountain of her blood; and both of them shall be cut off from among their people.

19 « لا تُعاشِرْ أُختَ أُمِّكَ أوْ أُختَ أبِيكَ، لِأنَّهُما قَرِيبَتانِ مِنكَ. إنْ حَدَثَ هَذا يَنبَغِي أنْ يُعاقَبا عَلَى خَطِيَّتِهِما.

And the nakedness of thy mother's sister, and of thy father's sister shalt thou not uncover; for he hath laid naked his near relation: they shall bear their iniquity.

20 إ نْ عاشَرَ رَجُلٌ زَوجَةَ عَمِّهِ، فَإنَّهُ يَكُونُ قَدْ جَلَبَ العارَ عَلَى عَمِّهِ. يَنبَغِي أنْ يُعاقَبا عَلَى خَطِيَّتِهِما. سَيَمُوتانِ بِلا أولادٍ.

And if a man lie with his aunt, he hath uncovered his uncle's nakedness: their sin shall they bear: they shall die childless.

21 إ نْ عاشَرَ رَجُلٌ زَوجَةَ أخِيهِ، فَهَذِهِ نَجاسَةٌ. قَدْ جَلَبَ العارَ لِأخِيهِ. سَيَمُوتانِ بِلا أولادٍ.

And if a man take his brother's wife, it is an unclean thing: he hath uncovered his brother's nakedness: they shall be childless.

22 « احْفَظُوا كُلَّ شَرائِعِي وَأحكامِي وَاعْمَلُوا بِها لِئَلّا تَتَقَيَّأكُمُ الأرْضُ الَّتِي أقُودُكُمْ إلَيها.

And ye shall observe all my statutes, and all mine ordinances, and do them, that the land whither I bring you to dwell therein vomit you not out.

23 ل ا تَسلُكُوا بِحَسَبِ عاداتِ الأُمَمِ الَّذِينَ سَأطرُدُهُمْ مِنَ الأرْضِ أمامَكُمْ، لِأنَّهُمْ عَمِلُوا هَذِهِ الخَطايا فَأبْغَضْتُهُمْ.

And ye shall not walk in the customs of the nation which I am casting out before you; for all these things have they done, and they became an abomination to me.

24 ل َكِنِّي قُلْتُ لَكُمْ: سَتَمتَلِكُونَ أرْضَهُمْ، وَسَأُعطِيها لَكُمْ لِتَمتَلِكُوها، أرْضاً تَفِيضُ لَبَناً وَعَسَلاً. أنا إلَهُكُمْ. «قَدْ مَيَّزتُكُمْ عَنْ كُلِّ الأُمَمِ الأُخرَى.

And I have said unto you, Ye shall possess their land, and I will give it unto you for a possession; a land flowing with milk and honey: I am Jehovah your God, who have separated you from the peoples.

25 ف َيَنبَغِي أنْ تُمَيِّزُوا بَينَ الحَيواناتِ وَالطُّيُورِ الطّاهِرَةِ وَغَيرِ الطّاهِرَةِ. لا تُنَجِّسُوا أنفُسَكُمْ بِأنْ تَأكُلُوا حَيواناً أوْ طَيراً أوْ أيَّ كائِنٍ يَزحَفُ عَلَى الأرْضِ قَدِ اعتَبَرتُهُ نَجِساً لَكُمْ.

And ye shall make a separation between the clean beast and the unclean, and between the unclean fowl and the clean, and ye shall not make yourselves an abomination by beast, or by fowl, or by anything that creepeth on the ground which I have separated for you, declaring as unclean.

26 ك ُونُوا قِدِّيسِينَ، لِأنِّي أنا اللهُ قُدُّوسٌ. قَدْ مَيَّزْتُكُمْ مِنْ كُلِّ الشُّعُوبِ الأُخرَى لِتَكُونُوا لِي.

And ye shall be holy unto me; for I Jehovah am holy, and have separated you from the peoples to be mine.

27 « أيُّ رَجُلٍ، أوِ امْرأةٍ، يُحاوِلُ اسْتِحْضارَ أرْواحِ المَوتَى، أوْ يَتَعامَلُ بِالسِّحرِ، يَنبَغِي إعدامُهُ. يَرجُمُهُ الشَّعبُ بِالحِجارَةِ حَتَّى المَوتِ. هُوَ مَسؤُولٌ عَنْ مَوتِهِ.»

And if there be a man or a woman in whom is a spirit of Python or of divination, they shall certainly be put to death: they shall stone them with stones; their blood is upon them.
