1Ja Issand rääkis Moosesega, öeldes:
1Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
2'Räägi Aaroni ja ta poegade ning kõigi Iisraeli lastega ja ütle neile: Issand on käskinud öelda nõnda:
2“Speak to Aaron, and to his sons, and to all the children of Israel, and say to them: ‘This is the thing which Yahweh has commanded,
3Kes iganes Iisraeli soost tapab härja või lamba või kitse, leeris või väljaspool leeri,
3Whatever man there is of the house of Israel, who kills a bull, or lamb, or goat, in the camp, or who kills it outside the camp,
4aga ei vii seda kogudusetelgi ukse juurde ohvrianni toomiseks Issandale Issanda eluaseme ees, sellele loetakse see veresüüks: ta on valanud verd, ja see mees tuleb hävitada oma rahva seast!
4and hasn’t brought it to the door of the Tent of Meeting, to offer it as an offering to Yahweh before the tabernacle of Yahweh: blood shall be imputed to that man. He has shed blood; and that man shall be cut off from among his people.
5Seepärast toogu Iisraeli lapsed oma ohvriloomad, mis nad seni väljal tapsid, ja viigu kogudusetelgi ukse juurde preestri kätte ja tapku need tänuohvriks Issandale!
5This is to the end that the children of Israel may bring their sacrifices, which they sacrifice in the open field, that they may bring them to Yahweh, to the door of the Tent of Meeting, to the priest, and sacrifice them for sacrifices of peace offerings to Yahweh.
6Ja preester piserdagu veri Issanda altarile kogudusetelgi ukse ees ning süüdaku rasv põlema Issandale meeldivaks lõhnaks!
6The priest shall sprinkle the blood on the altar of Yahweh at the door of the Tent of Meeting, and burn the fat for a pleasant aroma to Yahweh.
7Ja nad ei tohi enam tappa oma tapaohvreid paharettidele, kelle järel nad hoora viisil käivad: see olgu nende sugupõlvedele igaveseks seaduseks!
7They shall no more sacrifice their sacrifices to the goat idols, after which they play the prostitute. This shall be a statute forever to them throughout their generations.’
8Ja ütle neile: Igaüks Iisraeli soost ja nende keskel asuvaist võõraist, kes ohverdab põletus- või tapaohvrit,
8“You shall say to them, ‘Any man there is of the house of Israel, or of the strangers who live as foreigners among them, who offers a burnt offering or sacrifice,
9aga ei vii seda kogudusetelgi ukse juurde Issandale ohverdamiseks, tuleb hävitada oma rahva seast!
9and doesn’t bring it to the door of the Tent of Meeting, to sacrifice it to Yahweh; that man shall be cut off from his people.
10Ja kui keegi Iisraeli soost ja nende keskel asuvaist võõraist sööb mingisugust verd, siis ma pööran oma palge selle veresööja vastu ja hävitan tema ta rahva seast.
10“‘Any man of the house of Israel, or of the strangers who live as foreigners among them, who eats any kind of blood, I will set my face against that soul who eats blood, and will cut him off from among his people.
11Sest liha hing on veres, ja selle ma olen teile andnud altari jaoks lepituse toimetamiseks teie hingede eest; sest veri lepitab temas oleva hinge tõttu.
11For the life of the flesh is in the blood; and I have given it to you on the altar to make atonement for your souls: for it is the blood that makes atonement by reason of the life.
12Seepärast ma olen öelnud Iisraeli lastele: Ükski teist ei tohi verd süüa, ka teie keskel asuv võõras ei tohi verd süüa!
12Therefore I have said to the children of Israel, “No person among you shall eat blood, neither shall any stranger who lives as a foreigner among you eat blood.”
13Igaüks Iisraeli lastest ja nende keskel asuvaist võõraist, kes kütib söödava jahilooma või linnu, peab selle vere maha kallama ja mullaga katma.
13“‘Whatever man there is of the children of Israel, or of the strangers who live as foreigners among them, who takes in hunting any animal or bird that may be eaten; he shall pour out its blood, and cover it with dust.
14Sest kõige liha hing on tema hinge sisaldav veri. Ja ma ütlen Iisraeli lastele: Te ei tohi süüa mitte ühegi liha verd, sest iga liha hingeks on ta veri. Igaüks, kes seda sööb, hävitatagu!
14For as to the life of all flesh, its blood is with its life: therefore I said to the children of Israel, “You shall not eat the blood of any kind of flesh; for the life of all flesh is its blood. Whoever eats it shall be cut off.”
15Ja igaüks, kes sööb raibet või mahamurtud looma, olgu päriselanik või võõras, peab pesema oma riided ja loputama ennast veega ning olema õhtuni roojane; siis ta on puhas!
15“‘Every person that eats what dies of itself, or that which is torn by animals, whether he is native-born or a foreigner, he shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the evening: then he shall be clean.
16Aga kui ta ei pese ja oma ihu ei loputa, siis ta kannab oma patusüüd.'
16But if he doesn’t wash them, or bathe his flesh, then he shall bear his iniquity.’”
