Levitikosy 17

1 Ary Jehovah niteny tamin’ i Mosesy ka nanao hoe:

And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,

2 Mitenena amin’ i Arona sy ny zanany ary ny Zanak’ Isiraely rehetra hoe: Izao no nandidian’ i Jehovah:

Speak unto Aaron, and unto his sons, and unto all the children of Israel, and say unto them, This is the thing which Jehovah hath commanded, saying,

3 Na iza na iza amin’ ny taranak’ Isiraely no mamono omby, na zanak’ ondry, na osy, na eo an-toby, na any ivelan’ ny toby,

Every one of the house of Israel that slaughtereth an ox, or sheep, or goat, in the camp, or that slaughtereth it out of the camp,

4 ka tsy mitondra azy ho eo anoloan’ ny varavaran’ ny trano-lay fihaonana, hanaterana azy ho fanatitra ho an’ i Jehovah eo anoloan’ ny tabernakelin’ i Jehovah, dia ho meloka noho ny rà nalatsany izany olona izany, ka hofongorana tsy ho amin’ ny fireneny izy,

and doth not bring it to the entrance of the tent of meeting to present it as an offering to Jehovah, before the tabernacle of Jehovah, blood shall be reckoned unto that man: he hath shed blood; and that man shall be cut off from among his people,

5 mba ho entin’ ny Zanak’ isiraely ho an’ i Jehovah eo anoloan’ ny varavaran’ ny trano-lay fihaonana, ho amin’ ny mpisorona, ny zavatra vonoiny ho fanatitra, izay famonony tany an-tsaha; ary dia hateriny ho fanati-pihavanana ho an’ i Jehovah izany.

to the end that the children of Israel bring their sacrifices, which they sacrifice in the open field, that they bring them to Jehovah, unto the entrance of the tent of meeting, unto the priest, and sacrifice them as sacrifices of peace-offerings to Jehovah.

6 Ary ny mpisorona hanopy ny rà amin’ ny alitaran’ i Jehovah eo anoloan’ ny varavaran’ ny trano-lay fihaonana ka handoro ny saborany ho fofona ho hanitra ankasitrahana ho an’ i Jehovah.

And the priest shall sprinkle the blood upon the altar of Jehovah, at the entrance of the tent of meeting, and burn the fat for a sweet odour to Jehovah.

7 Ary tsy hateriny intsony ny fanatiny ho an’ ny Seïrima izay nijangajangany. Ho lalàna mandrakizay hatramin’ ny taranany fara mandimby izany.

And they shall no more sacrifice their sacrifices unto demons, after whom they go a whoring. This shall be an everlasting statute unto them for their generations.

8 Ary lazao aminy hoe: Na iza na iza amin’ ny taranak’ Isiraely, na amin’ ny vahiny eo aminareo, no manatitra fanatitra dorana, na fanatitra hafa alatsa-drà,

And thou shalt say unto them, Every one of the house of Israel, and of the strangers who sojourn among them, that offereth up a burnt-offering or sacrifice,

9 ka tsy mitondra azy ho eo anoloan’ ny varavaran’ ny trano-lay fihaonana hanatitra azy ho an’ i Jehovah, dia hofongorana tsy ho amin’ ny fireneny.

and bringeth it not to the entrance of the tent of meeting, to offer it up to Jehovah — that man shall be cut off from his peoples.

10 Ary na iza na iza amin’ ny taranak’ Isiraely, na amin’ ny vahiny eo aminareo, no mihinan-drà, ny Tavako dia hanandrina ny olona izay mihinan-drà, ka hofongorana tsy ho amin’ ny fireneny izy.

And every one of the house of Israel, or of the strangers who sojourn among them, that eateth any manner of blood, — I will set my face against the soul that hath eaten blood, and will cut him off from among his people;

11 Fa ny ain’ ny nofo dia amin’ ny rà; ary nomeko anareo izany hatao ambonin’ ny alitara hanao fanavotana ho an’ ny ainareo, fa ny rà no manao fanavotana, satria aina izany.

for the soul of the flesh is in the blood; and I have given it to you upon the altar to make atonement for your souls, for it is the blood that maketh atonement for the soul.

12 Koa izany no nilazako tamin’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely hoe: Aza misy mihinan-drà, na ianareo, na ny vahiny eo aminareo.

Therefore have I said unto the children of Israel, No soul of you shall eat blood, neither shall the stranger who sojourneth among you eat blood.

13 Na iza na iza amin’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely, na amin’ ny vahiny eo aminy, no mihaza ka mahazo biby na vorona izay fihinana, dia haidiny amin’ ny tany ny ràny ka hototofany;

And every one of the children of Israel, and of the strangers who sojourn among them, that catcheth in the hunt a beast or fowl that may be eaten, he shall pour out the blood thereof, and cover it with earth;

14 fa ny amin’ ny amin’ ny nofo rehetra, dia ny ràny no ainy; koa izany no nilazako tamin’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely hoe: Aza mihinana ny ran’ ny nofo; fa ny ràny no ain’ ny nofo rehetra, ka izay rehetra mihinana azy dia haringana.

for as to the life of all flesh, its blood is the life in it; and I have said unto the children of Israel, Of the blood of no manner of flesh shall ye eat, for the life of all flesh is its blood: whoever eateth it shall be cut off.

15 Ary ny olona rehetra, na tompon-tany, na vahiny, izay mihinana izay maty ho azy, na izay noviraviraim-biby, dia hanasa fitafiana sy handro amin’ ny rano, ary haloto mandra-paharivan’ ny andro izy, vao hadio.

And every soul that eateth of a dead carcase, or of that which was torn, be it one home-born, or a stranger, he shall wash his clothes, and bathe in water, and be unclean until the even: then he shall be clean.

16 Fa raha tsy manasa fitafiana sy mandro izy, dia ho meloka.

And if he wash them not nor bathe his flesh, then he shall bear his iniquity.
