And the LORD said unto Moses, Speak unto the priests the sons of Aaron, and say unto them, There shall none be defiled for the dead among his people:
Seyè a di Moyiz konsa: -Pale ak pitit Arawon yo, prèt yo. W'a di yo konsa: Lè yon prèt gen yon moun mouri nan fanmi l', piga li patisipe nan ankenn seremoni yo fè pou mò, pou sa pa mete l' nan kondisyon pou l' pa ka fè sèvis Bondye,
They shall not make baldness upon their head, neither shall they shave off the corner of their beard, nor make any cuttings in their flesh.
Prèt yo pa gen dwa kale ankenn pati nan tèt yo, ni yo pa gen dwa taye pwent bab yo, ni yo pa gen dwa make kò yo avèk kouto, pou fè wè yo gen moun mouri.
They shall be holy unto their God, and not profane the name of their God: for the offerings of the LORD made by fire, and the bread of their God, they do offer: therefore they shall be holy.
Se pou yo viv apa nèt pou Bondye yo. Yo pa dwe derespekte non mwen. Paske se yo menm k'ap mete nan dife ofrann yo fè pou Seyè a, se manje Bondye y'ap ofri. Se pou yo toujou rete apa pou mwen.
They shall not take a wife that is a whore, or profane; neither shall they take a woman put away from her husband: for he is holy unto his God.
Yon prèt pa gen dwa marye ni ak yon fanm ki t'ap fè jennès, ni ak yon fanm ki konn gason deja, ni ak yon fanm mari l' kite l', paske yo mete yo apa pou fè sèvis mwen.
Thou shalt sanctify him therefore; for he offereth the bread of thy God: he shall be holy unto thee: for I the LORD, which sanctify you, am holy.
Tout moun dwe konsidere prèt yo tankou moun yo mete apa pou Bondye, paske se yo menm k'ap fè ofrann pou Bondye nou an. Mwen menm Seyè a, mwen yon Bondye apa. Se mwen k'ap fè nou viv apa pou mwen. Wi, se pou nou konsidere prèt yo tankou moun yo mete apa pou Bondye.
And he that is the high priest among his brethren, upon whose head the anointing oil was poured, and that is consecrated to put on the garments, shall not uncover his head, nor rend his clothes;
Granprèt la, se chèf li ye nan mitan tout prèt yo. Se moun yo te vide lwil sou tèt li a, moun yo te mete apa pou mete rad prèt la sou li a. Li pa fèt ni pou kite tèt li san penyen, ni pou l' chire rad sou li lè li gen moun mouri.
Neither shall he go in to any dead body, nor defile himself for his father, or for his mother;
Yo mete kouwòn mwen sou tèt li, yo vide lwil sou tèt li pou mete l' apa pou mwen. Li pa fèt pou l' fè bagay ki pou mete l' nan kondisyon pou li pa ka fè sèvis Bondye, pou l' derespekte kay yo mete apa pou Bondye a.
Neither shall he go out of the sanctuary, nor profane the sanctuary of his God; for the crown of the anointing oil of his God is upon him: I am the LORD.
Li pa fèt pou l' kite kay Bondye a pou l' al antre nan yon kay kote gen kadav moun mouri, menm si se papa l' osinon manman l' ki mouri a. Se mwen menm ki Seyè a!
A widow, or a divorced woman, or profane, or an harlot, these shall he not take: but he shall take a virgin of his own people to wife.
Li p'ap pran pou madanm yon fanm vèv, ni yon fanm divòse, ni yon fanm ki konn gason deja, osinon yon fanm ki t'ap fè jennès. Se sèlman yon jenn fi ki soti nan menm branch fanmi avè l' pou li pran pou madanm.
Speak unto Aaron, saying, Whosoever he be of thy seed in their generations that hath any blemish, let him not approach to offer the bread of his God.
-Pale ak Arawon, w'a di li: Si gen yon moun nan fanmi ou ki gen yon enfimite, li p'ap janm ka pwoche pou l' fè ofrann manje pou Bondye li. Regleman sa a ou fèt pou swiv li tout tan de pitit an pitit.
No man that hath a blemish of the seed of Aaron the priest shall come nigh to offer the offerings of the LORD made by fire: he hath a blemish; he shall not come nigh to offer the bread of his God.
Depi yon gason nan ras prèt Arawon an enfim yon kote nan kò li, li p'ap ka pwoche pou fè ofrann pou boule nan dife pou Seyè a. Wi, si li gen yon enfimite, li p'ap ka pwoche devan Bondye pou fè ofrann pou li.
Only he shall not go in unto the vail, nor come nigh unto the altar, because he hath a blemish; that he profane not my sanctuaries: for I the LORD do sanctify them.
Men, li pa gen dwa pwoche bò rido a ni vin bò lotèl la paske li enfim nan kò l'. Li pa fèt pou derespekte bagay ki apa pou mwen yo paske se mwen menm Seyè a ki mete yo apa pou mwen.
