| 1 καὶ εἶπεν κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν λέγων εἰπὸν τοῖς ἱερεῦσιν τοῖς υἱοῖς Ααρων καὶ ἐρεῖς πρὸς αὐτούς ἐν ταῖς ψυχαῖς οὐ μιανθήσονται ἐν τῷ ἔθνει αὐτῶν 2 ἀλ{L'} ἢ ἐν τῷ οἰκείῳ τῷ ἔγγιστα αὐτῶν ἐπὶ πατρὶ καὶ μητρὶ καὶ υἱοῖς καὶ θυγατράσιν ἐ{P'} ἀδελφῷ 3 καὶ ἐ{P'} ἀδελφῇ παρθένῳ τῇ ἐγγιζούσῃ αὐτῷ τῇ μὴ ἐκδεδομένῃ ἀνδρί ἐπὶ τούτοις μιανθήσεται 4 οὐ μιανθήσεται ἐξάπινα ἐν τῷ λαῷ αὐτοῦ εἰς βεβήλωσιν αὐτοῦ | 1 The Lord also spoke to Moses giving him a message for the priests, the sons of Aaron: When a fellow-citizen dies, a priest is not to expose himself to defilement, 2 unless it be the funeral of one of his near kin, father or mother, son or daughter, a brother of his 3 or a sister that is a virgin unwed. 4 Nay, he must not expose himself to defilement even for the ruler among the people.[1] | 1 Dixit quoque Dominus ad Moysen: Loquere ad sacerdotes filios Aaron, et dices ad eos: Ne contaminetur sacerdos in mortibus civium suorum, 2 nisi tantum in consanguineis, ac propinquis, id est, super patre et matre, et filio, et filia, fratre quoque, 3 et sorore virgine quæ non est nupta viro: 4 sed nec in principe populi sui contaminabitur. |
| 5 καὶ φαλάκρωμα οὐ ξυρηθήσεσθε τὴν κεφαλὴν ἐπὶ νεκρῷ καὶ τὴν ὄψιν τοῦ πώγωνος οὐ ξυρήσονται καὶ ἐπὶ τὰς σάρκας αὐτῶν οὐ κατατεμοῦσιν ἐντομίδας 6 ἅγιοι ἔσονται τῷ θεῷ αὐτῶν καὶ οὐ βεβηλώσουσιν τὸ ὄνομα τοῦ θεοῦ αὐτῶν τὰς γὰρ θυσίας κυρίου δῶρα τοῦ θεοῦ αὐτῶν αὐτοὶ προσφέρουσιν καὶ ἔσονται ἅγιοι 7 γυναῖκα πόρνην καὶ βεβηλωμένην οὐ λήμψονται καὶ γυναῖκα ἐκβεβλημένην ἀπὸ ἀνδρὸς αὐτῆς ἅγιός ἐστιν τῷ κυρίῳ θεῷ αὐτοῦ 8 καὶ ἁγιάσει αὐτόν τὰ δῶρα κυρίου τοῦ θεοῦ ὑμῶν οὗτος προσφέρει ἅγιος ἔσται ὅτι ἅγιος ἐγὼ κύριος ὁ ἁγιάζων αὐτούς 9 καὶ θυγάτηρ ἀνθρώπου ἱερέως ἐὰν βεβηλωθῇ τοῦ ἐκπορνεῦσαι τὸ ὄνομα τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτῆς αὐτὴ βεβηλοῖ ἐπὶ πυρὸς κατακαυθήσεται | 5 Priests are not to shave their heads or beards, or make gashes in their skin for mourning. 6 They are men set apart for their God, and must never bring reproach on his name; they burn incense[2] to the Lord, offer their God his consecrated loaves, and shall they not be holy? 7 They must not wed harlots, or women dishonoured, or those whom their husbands have rejected, these men vowed to the service of their God, 8 who set out the consecrated loaves before him. They must be set apart, as I, the Lord, am set apart, the Lord that hallows them. 9 If the daughter of a priest is convicted of playing the harlot, and bringing dishonour on her father’s name, she must be given to the flames. | 5 Non radent caput, nec barbam, neque in carnibus suis facient incisuras. 6 Sancti erunt Deo suo, et non polluent nomen ejus: incensum enim Domini, et panes Dei sui offerunt, et ideo sancti erunt. 7 Scortum et vile prostibulum non ducent uxorem, nec eam quæ repudiata est a marito: quia consecrati sunt Deo suo, 8 et panes propositionis offerunt. Sint ergo sancti, quia et ego sanctus sum, Dominus qui sanctifico eos. 9 Sacerdotis filia si deprehensa fuerit in stupro, et violaverit nomen patris sui, flammis exuretur. |
| 10 καὶ ὁ ἱερεὺς ὁ μέγας ἀπὸ τῶν ἀδελφῶν αὐτοῦ τοῦ ἐπικεχυμένου ἐπὶ τὴν κεφαλὴν τοῦ ἐλαίου τοῦ χριστοῦ καὶ τετελειωμένου ἐνδύσασθαι τὰ ἱμάτια τὴν κεφαλὴν οὐκ ἀποκιδαρώσει καὶ τὰ ἱμάτια οὐ διαρρήξει 11 καὶ ἐπὶ πάσῃ ψυχῇ τετελευτηκυίᾳ οὐκ εἰσελεύσεται ἐπὶ πατρὶ αὐτοῦ οὐδὲ ἐπὶ μητρὶ αὐτοῦ οὐ μιανθήσεται 12 καὶ ἐκ τῶν ἁγίων οὐκ ἐξελεύσεται καὶ οὐ βεβηλώσει τὸ ἡγιασμένον τοῦ θεοῦ αὐτοῦ ὅτι τὸ ἅγιον ἔλαιον τὸ χριστὸν τοῦ θεοῦ ἐ{P'} αὐτῷ ἐγὼ κύριος 13 οὗτος γυναῖκα παρθένον ἐκ τοῦ γένους αὐτοῦ λήμψεται 14 χήραν δὲ καὶ ἐκβεβλημένην καὶ βεβηλωμένην καὶ πόρνην ταύτας οὐ λήμψεται ἀλ{L'} ἢ παρθένον ἐκ τοῦ γένους αὐτοῦ λήμψεται γυναῖκα 15 καὶ οὐ βεβηλώσει τὸ σπέρμα αὐτοῦ ἐν τῷ λαῷ αὐτοῦ ἐγὼ κύριος ὁ ἁγιάζων αὐτόν | 10 The high priest, that one who is chief among his brethren, whose brow has been anointed with the holy oil, and his hands consecrated for the priestly office, who wears the sacred vestments, may never bare his head, or rend his garments, 11 or go near a dead body upon any occasion. Though it be his father or mother, he must not expose himself to defilement, 12 but keep within the Lord’s holy precincts, so as not to bring defilement on them, a man consecrated to his God by the holy oil that anointed him; the Lord’s own priest. 13 And when he marries, he must marry a virgin; 14 not a widow, or a rejected wife, or a harlot, or a woman dishonoured; she must be a virgin of his own clan,[3] 15 so that the stock of his family is not debased by the blood of common folk; I, the Lord, have set him apart. | 10 Pontifex, id est, sacerdos maximus inter fratres suos, super cujus caput fusum est unctionis oleum, et cujus manus in sacerdotio consecratæ sunt, vestitusque est sanctis vestibus, caput suum non discooperiet, vestimenta non scindet: 11 et ad omnem mortuum non ingredietur omnino: super patre quoque suo et matre non contaminabitur. 12 Nec egredietur de sanctis, ne polluat sanctuarium Domini, quia oleum sanctæ unctionis Dei sui super eum est. Ego Dominus. 13 Virginem ducet uxorem: 14 viduam autem et repudiatam, et sordidam, atque meretricem non accipiet, sed puellam de populo suo: 15 ne commisceat stirpem generis sui vulgo gentis suæ: quia ego Dominus, qui sanctifico eum. |
| 16 καὶ ἐλάλησεν κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν λέγων 17 εἰπὸν Ααρων ἄνθρωπος ἐκ τοῦ γένους σου εἰς τὰς γενεὰς ὑμῶν τίνι ἐὰν ᾖ ἐν αὐτῷ μῶμος οὐ προσελεύσεται προσφέρειν τὰ δῶρα τοῦ θεοῦ αὐτοῦ 18 πᾶς ἄνθρωπος ᾧ ἂν ᾖ ἐν αὐτῷ μῶμος οὐ προσελεύσεται ἄνθρωπος χωλὸς ἢ τυφλὸς ἢ κολοβόρριν ἢ ὠτότμητος 19 ἢ ἄνθρωπος ᾧ ἐστιν ἐν αὐτῷ σύντριμμα χειρὸς ἢ σύντριμμα ποδός 20 ἢ κυρτὸς ἢ ἔφηλος ἢ πτίλος τοὺς ὀφθαλμοὺς ἢ ἄνθρωπος ᾧ ἂν ᾖ ἐν αὐτῷ ψώρα ἀγρία ἢ λιχήν ἢ μόνορχις 21 πᾶς ᾧ ἐστιν ἐν αὐτῷ μῶμος ἐκ τοῦ σπέρματος Ααρων τοῦ ἱερέως οὐκ ἐγγιεῖ τοῦ προσενεγκεῖν τὰς θυσίας τῷ θεῷ σου ὅτι μῶμος ἐν αὐτῷ τὰ δῶρα τοῦ θεοῦ οὐ προσελεύσεται προσενεγκεῖν 22 τὰ δῶρα τοῦ θεοῦ τὰ ἅγια τῶν ἁγίων καὶ ἀπὸ τῶν ἁγίων φάγεται 23 πλὴν πρὸς τὸ καταπέτασμα οὐ προσελεύσεται καὶ πρὸς τὸ θυσιαστήριον οὐκ ἐγγιεῖ ὅτι μῶμον ἔχει καὶ οὐ βεβηλώσει τὸ ἅγιον τοῦ θεοῦ αὐτοῦ ὅτι ἐγώ εἰμι κύριος ὁ ἁγιάζων αὐτούς | 16 The Lord, too, spoke to Moses, 17 bidding him tell Aaron: No descendant of thine that has any blemish shall be allowed to offer his God the consecrated loaves, 18 nor to come forward and do him service. Such are the blind, the lame, one whose nose is deformed in size or twisted awry,[4] 19 one who has a crushed hand or foot, 20 is hunch-backed or blear-eyed,[5] or wall-eyed, has a continual scab or itch on him, or a rupture. 21 No one of the priestly line of Aaron who has such a blemish must come forward to sacrifice to the Lord, or offer his God the consecrated loaves. 22 He is allowed to eat the bread which is offered in the sanctuary, 23 but he must have no access to the veil,[6] must not go near the altar; my sanctuary must not be profaned by any blemish. I, the Lord, have set priests apart for myself. | 16 Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen, dicens: 17 Loquere ad Aaron: Homo de semine tuo per familias qui habuerit maculam, non offeret panes Deo suo, 18 nec accedet ad ministerium ejus: si cæcus fuerit, si claudus, si parvo vel grandi, vel torto naso, 19 si fracto pede, si manu, 20 si gibbus, si lippus, si albuginem habens in oculo, si jugem scabiem, si impetiginem in corpore, vel herniosus. 21 Omnis qui habuerit maculam de semine Aaron sacerdotis, non accedet offerre hostias Domino, nec panes Deo suo: 22 vescetur tamen panibus qui offeruntur in sanctuario, 23 ita dumtaxat, ut intra velum non ingrediatur, nec accedat ad altare, quia maculam habet, et contaminare non debet sanctuarium meum. Ego Dominus qui sanctifico eos. |
| 24 καὶ ἐλάλησεν Μωυσῆς πρὸς Ααρων καὶ τοὺς υἱοὺς αὐτοῦ καὶ πρὸς πάντας υἱοὺς Ισραηλ | 24 All these commands Moses handed on to Aaron, and to his sons, and to the people of Israel. | 24 Locutus est ergo Moyses ad Aaron, et ad filios ejus, et ad omnem Israël cuncta quæ fuerant sibi imperata. |
[1] The sense of this verse in the Hebrew text is uncertain.
[2] According to the Hebrew text, ‘offerings’. In this chapter, by a metaphor, the priests seem to be thought of as servants waiting at their master’s table.
[3] Literally, ‘his own people’, but the context seems to indicate that the Latin version uses the word here in a restricted sense. The Hebrew text has simply ‘She must be a virgin, of his own people, and he must not dishonour his race among his people’.
[4] The Hebrew text is generally understood as meaning ‘one who is mutilated (probably in the face) or has an over-developed limb’.
[5] The word in the Hebrew text seems to mean ‘withered’.
[6] Literally, according to the Latin text, ‘go within the veil’, but this was in any case forbidden to all except the high priest (Heb. 9.7). The Hebrew text has ‘come up to the veil’ (cf. 4.6 above).
