Ααρων καὶ τοῖς υἱοῖς αὐτοῦ καὶ προσεχέτωσαν ἀπὸ τῶν ἁγίων τῶν υἱῶν Ισραηλ καὶ οὐ βεβηλώσουσιν τὸ ὄνομα τὸ ἅγιόν μου ὅσα αὐτοὶ ἁγιάζουσίν μοι ἐγὼ κύριος
Speak to Aaron and to his sons, and let them take heed of the holy things of the sons of Israel, and they shall not profane my holy name, those things which they themselves consecrate to me; I am the Lord
αὐτοῖς εἰς τὰς γενεὰς ὑμῶν πᾶς ἄνθρωπος ὃς ἂν προσέλθῃ ἀπὸ παντὸς τοῦ σπέρματος ὑμῶν πρὸς τὰ ἅγια ὅσα ἂν ἁγιάζωσιν οἱ υἱοὶ Ισραηλ τῷ κυρίῳ καὶ ἡ ἀκαθαρσία αὐτοῦ ἐπ᾿ αὐτῷ ἐξολεθρευθήσεται ἡ ψυχὴ ἐκείνη ἀπ᾿ ἐμοῦ ἐγὼ κύριος ὁ θεὸς ὑμῶν
Say to them, throughout your generations: any man who shall come from any of your seed to the holy things, which the sons of Israel consecrate to the Lord, and his uncleanness is upon him, that soul shall be cut off from me; I am the Lord your God.
ἄνθρωπος ἐκ τοῦ σπέρματος Ααρων τοῦ ἱερέως καὶ οὗτος λεπρᾷ ἢ γονορρυής τῶν ἁγίων οὐκ ἔδεται ἕως ἂν καθαρισθῇ καὶ ὁ ἁπτόμενος πάσης ἀκαθαρσίας ψυχῆς ἢ ἄνθρωπος ᾧ ἂν ἐξέλθῃ ἐξ αὐτοῦ κοίτη σπέρματος
And a man from the seed of Aaron the priest, and he being leprous or having a discharge, shall not eat of the holy things until he is cleansed; and the one touching any uncleanness of a soul, or a man from whom a lying of seed may go out,
ὅστις ἂν ἅψηται παντὸς ἑρπετοῦ ἀκαθάρτου ὃ μιανεῖ αὐτόν ἢ ἐπ᾿ ἀνθρώπῳ ἐν ᾧ μιανεῖ αὐτὸν κατὰ πᾶσαν ἀκαθαρσίαν αὐτοῦ
or whoever touches any unclean creeping thing by which he will be defiled, or a man by whom he will be defiled, according to all his uncleanness
ἥτις ἂν ἅψηται αὐτῶν ἀκάθαρτος ἔσται ἕως ἑσπέρας οὐκ ἔδεται ἀπὸ τῶν ἁγίων ἐὰν μὴ λούσηται τὸ σῶμα αὐτοῦ ὕδατι
A soul that touches any of them shall be unclean until evening; he shall not eat of the holy things unless he has bathed his body in water.
and the sun shall set and he shall be clean, and then he shall eat of the holy things, because it is his bread
He shall not eat a carcass or what is torn by beasts, so as to defile himself by them; I am the Lord.
φυλάξονται τὰ φυλάγματά μου ἵνα μὴ λάβωσιν δι᾿ αὐτὰ ἁμαρτίαν καὶ ἀποθάνωσιν δι᾿ αὐτά ἐὰν βεβηλώσωσιν αὐτά ἐγὼ κύριος ὁ θεὸς ὁ ἁγιάζων αὐτούς
And they shall keep my observances, that they may not take sin through them and die through them, if they profane them; I am the Lord God who sanctifies them.
And no foreigner shall eat the holy things; a sojourner of a priest or a hired worker shall not eat the holy things.
δὲ ἱερεὺς κτήσηται ψυχὴν ἔγκτητον ἀργυρίου οὗτος φάγεται ἐκ τῶν ἄρτων αὐτοῦ καὶ οἱ οἰκογενεῖς αὐτοῦ καὶ οὗτοι φάγονται τῶν ἄρτων αὐτοῦ
But if a priest acquires a soul with money, this one shall eat of his bread, and his household, and these shall eat of his bread
And if the daughter of a priestly man becomes the wife of a foreign man, she shall not eat of the firstfruits of the holy things.
θυγάτηρ ἱερέως ἐὰν γένηται χήρα ἢ ἐκβεβλημένη σπέρμα δὲ μὴ ἦν αὐτῇ ἐπαναστρέψει ἐπὶ τὸν οἶκον τὸν πατρικὸν κατὰ τὴν νεότητα αὐτῆς ἀπὸ τῶν ἄρτων τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτῆς φάγεται καὶ πᾶς ἀλλογενὴς οὐ φάγεται ἀπ᾿ αὐτῶν
And if a priest’s daughter becomes a widow or is cast out and she has no seed, she shall return to her father’s house, according to her youth; from the bread of her father she shall eat, and every foreigner shall not eat of them.
ἄνθρωπος ὃς ἂν φάγῃ ἅγια κατὰ ἄγνοιαν καὶ προσθήσει τὸ ἐπίπεμπτον αὐτοῦ ἐπ᾿ αὐτὸ καὶ δώσει τῷ ἱερεῖ τὸ ἅγιον
And a man who shall eat holy things in ignorance shall add its fifth on it, and shall give the holy thing to the priest.
And they shall not profane the holy things of the sons of Israel, which they themselves take away for the Lord
ἐπάξουσιν ἐφ᾿ ἑαυτοὺς ἀνομίαν πλημμελείας ἐν τῷ ἐσθίειν αὐτοὺς τὰ ἅγια αὐτῶν ὅτι ἐγὼ κύριος ὁ ἁγιάζων αὐτούς
and they shall bring upon themselves the iniquity of trespass in their eating the holy things of them, because I am the Lord who sanctifies them
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying
Ααρων καὶ τοῖς υἱοῖς αὐτοῦ καὶ πάσῃ συναγωγῇ Ισραηλ καὶ ἐρεῖς πρὸς αὐτούς ἄνθρωπος ἄνθρωπος ἀπὸ τῶν υἱῶν Ισραηλ ἢ τῶν υἱῶν τῶν προσηλύτων τῶν προσκειμένων πρὸς αὐτοὺς ἐν Ισραηλ ὃς ἂν προσενέγκῃ τὰ δῶρα αὐτοῦ κατὰ πᾶσαν ὁμολογίαν αὐτῶν ἢ κατὰ πᾶσαν αἵρεσιν αὐτῶν ὅσα ἂν προσενέγκωσιν τῷ θεῷ εἰς ὁλοκαύτωμα
Speak to Aaron and to his sons and to all the assembly of Israel, and you shall say to them: Any man, any man from the sons of Israel or from the sons of the proselytes who are joined to them in Israel, whoever might bring his gifts according to all their vow or according to all their choice, whatever they might bring to God for a whole burnt offering
it shall be acceptable for you, male, without blemish, from the herd and from the sheep and from the goats
Anything that has a blemish in it, they shall not bring near to the Lord, because it will not be acceptable to you.
ἄνθρωπος ὃς ἂν προσενέγκῃ θυσίαν σωτηρίου τῷ κυρίῳ διαστείλας εὐχὴν κατὰ αἵρεσιν ἢ ἐν ταῖς ἑορταῖς ὑμῶν ἐκ τῶν βουκολίων ἢ ἐκ τῶν προβάτων ἄμωμον ἔσται εἰς δεκτόν πᾶς μῶμος οὐκ ἔσται ἐν αὐτῷ
And a man who may bring a sacrifice of peace-offering to the Lord, having distinguished a vow according to choice or at your feasts, from the cattle or from the sheep, it shall be unblemished for acceptance; there shall be no blemish in it.
ἢ συντετριμμένον ἢ γλωσσότμητον ἢ μυρμηκιῶντα ἢ ψωραγριῶντα ἢ λιχῆνας ἔχοντα οὐ προσάξουσιν ταῦτα τῷ κυρίῳ καὶ εἰς κάρπωσιν οὐ δώσετε ἀπ᾿ αὐτῶν ἐπὶ τὸ θυσιαστήριον τῷ κυρίῳ
A blind one or one broken or one cut in the tongue or one having warts or one having scurfy eruptions or one having ringworm, these you shall not bring near to the Lord, and for an offering you shall not give from them upon the altar to the Lord
μόσχον ἢ πρόβατον ὠτότμητον ἢ κολοβόκερκον σφάγια ποιήσεις αὐτὰ σεαυτῷ εἰς δὲ εὐχήν σου οὐ δεχθήσεται
And a calf or a sheep with an ear cut off or with a docked tail you shall make a sacrifice for yourself, but for your vow it shall not be accepted
καὶ ἐκτεθλιμμένον καὶ ἐκτομίαν καὶ ἀπεσπασμένον οὐ προσάξεις αὐτὰ τῷ κυρίῳ καὶ ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς ὑμῶν οὐ ποιήσετε
one that is crushed and one that is pressed and one that is cut off and one that is torn off you shall not bring these to the Lord, and in your land you shall not do
ἐκ χειρὸς ἀλλογενοῦς οὐ προσοίσετε τὰ δῶρα τοῦ θεοῦ ὑμῶν ἀπὸ πάντων τούτων ὅτι φθάρματά ἐστιν ἐν αὐτοῖς μῶμος ἐν αὐτοῖς οὐ δεχθήσεται ταῦτα ὑμῖν
And from the hand of a stranger you shall not bring the gifts of your God from all these, because there is corruption in them; there is a blemish in them; these shall not be accepted for you.
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying
ἢ πρόβατον ἢ αἶγα ὡς ἂν τεχθῇ καὶ ἔσται ἑπτὰ ἡμέρας ὑπὸ τὴν μητέρα τῇ δὲ ἡμέρᾳ τῇ ὀγδόῃ καὶ ἐπέκεινα δεχθήσεται εἰς δῶρα κάρπωμα κυρίῳ
A calf or a sheep or a goat, whenever it is born, then it shall be seven days under its mother, and on the eighth day and thereafter it shall be accepted for gifts, an offering by fire to the Lord
And a calf or a sheep, it and its young, you shall not slaughter in one day.
And if you sacrifice a sacrifice of vow of thanksgiving to the Lord, you shall sacrifice it so as to be acceptable for you.
On that very day it shall be eaten; you shall not leave any of the flesh until morning; I am the Lord
And you shall keep my commandments and shall do them
And you shall not profane the name of the Holy One, and I shall be sanctified among the sons of Israel; I am the Lord who sanctifies you.
the one who brought you out from the land of Egypt so as to be your God, I am the Lord
