Old Testament
Leviticus
Dixit quoque Dominus ad Moysen: Loquere ad sacerdotes filios Aaron, et dices ad eos: Ne contaminetur sacerdos in mortibus civium suorum,
The Lord said also to Moses: Speak to the priests the sons of Aaron, and thou shalt say for them: Let not a priest incur an uncleanness at the death of his citizens.
Domino etiam dic ad Moyse: loque ad sacerdotes filios Aarone, et dic ad illos: ne sacerdote contamina in mortes de cives suo,
nisi tantum in consanguineis, ac propinquis, id est, super patre et matre, et filio, et filia, fratre quoque,
But only for his kin, such as are near in blood: that is to say, for his father and for his mother, and for his son, and for his daughter, for his brother also:
Nisi tanto in consanguineanes, et propinquo, id es, super patre et matre, et filio, et filia, fratre etiam,
et sorore virgine quæ non est nupta viro:
And for a maiden sister, who hath had no husband.
Et sorore virgine que non es nube ad viro:
sed nec in principe populi sui contaminabitur.
But not even for the prince of his people shall he do any thing that may make him unclean.
Sed nec in principe de populo suo contamina.
Non radent caput, nec barbam, neque in carnibus suis facient incisuras.
Neither shall they shave their head, nor their beard, nor make incisions in their flesh.
Non rade capite, nec barba, neque in carnes suo fac incisuras.
Sancti erunt Deo suo, et non polluent nomen ejus: incensum enim Domini, et panes Dei sui offerunt, et ideo sancti erunt.
They shall be holy to their God, and shall not profane his name. For they offer the burnt offering of the Lord, and the bread of their God: and therefore they shall be holy.
Sancto es ad Deo suo, et non pollue nomine de illo: incenso nam de Domino, et panes de Deo suo offer, et ideo sancto es.
Scortum et vile prostibulum non ducent uxorem, nec eam quæ repudiata est a marito: quia consecrati sunt Deo suo,
They shall not take to wife a harlot or a vile prostitute, nor one that has been put away from her husband: because they are consecrated to their God,
Scorto et vili prostibulo non duc uxore, nec illa que repudia es ab marito: quia consecra es ad Deo suo,
et panes propositionis offerunt. Sint ergo sancti, quia et ego sanctus sum, Dominus qui sanctifico eos.
And offer the loaves of proposition. Let them therefore be holy because I also am holy: the Lord, who sanctify them.
Et panes de propositione offer. Es ergo sancto, quia et me sancto es, Domino qui sanctifica illos.
Sacerdotis filia si deprehensa fuerit in stupro, et violaverit nomen patris sui, flammis exuretur.
If the daughter of a priest be taken in whoredom and dishonour the name of her father, she shall be burnt with fire.
De sacerdote filia si depr(eh)enda es in stupro, et viola nomine de patre suo, flammos exure.
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:
The high priest, that is to say, the priest who is the greatest among his brethren, upon whose head the oil of unction hath been poured; and whose hands have been consecrated for the priesthood; and who hath been vested with the holy vestments. He shall not uncover his head: he shall not rend his garments.
Pontifice, id es, sacerdote magna inter fratres suo, super que capite funde es de unctione oleo, et de que manus in sacerdotio consecra es, et vestie es sancto vestes, capite suo non disce, vestimentos non sci:
et ad omnem mortuum non ingredietur omnino: super patre quoque suo et matre non contaminabitur.
Nor shall he go in at all to any dead person: not even for his father, or his mother, shall he be defiled.
Et ad omni more non ingredior omnino: super patre etiam suo et matre non contamina.
Nec egredietur de sanctis, ne polluat sanctuarium Domini, quia oleum sanctæ unctionis Dei sui super eum est. Ego Dominus.
Neither shall he go out of the holy places, lest he defile the sanctuary of the Lord: because the oil of the holy unction of his God is upon him. I am the Lord.
Nec egredior de sancto, ne pollue sanctuario de Domino, quia oleo sancto de unctione de Deo suo super illo es. Me Domino.
Virginem ducet uxorem:
He shall take a virgin unto his wife.
Virgine duc uxore:
viduam autem et repudiatam, et sordidam, atque meretricem non accipiet, sed puellam de populo suo:
But a widow or one that is divorced, or defied, or a harlot, he shall not take: but a maid of his own people.
Vidua autem et repudia, et sordido, et meretrice non accipe, sed puella de populo suo:
ne commisceat stirpem generis sui vulgo gentis suæ: quia ego Dominus, qui sanctifico eum.
He shall not mingle the stock of his kindred with the common people of this nation: for I am the Lord who sanctify him.
Ne commisce stirpe de genere suo vulgo de gente suo: quia me Domino, qui sanctifica illo.
Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen, dicens:
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
Et locuto es Domino ad Moyse, dicente:
Loquere ad Aaron: Homo de semine tuo per familias qui habuerit maculam, non offeret panes Deo suo,
Say to Aaron: Whosoever of thy seed throughout their families, hath a blemish, he shall not offer bread to his God.
Loque ad Aarone: homine de semine tuo per familia qui habe macula, non offer panes ad Deo suo,
nec accedet ad ministerium ejus: si cæcus fuerit, si claudus, si parvo vel grandi, vel torto naso,
Neither shall he approach to minister to him: If he be blind; if he be lame; if he have a little, or a great, or a crooked nose;
Nec accede ad ministerio de illo: si caeco es, si claudo, si minimo vel grandi, vel torto naso,
si fracto pede, si manu,
If his foot, or if his hand be broken;
Si frange pede, si manu,
si gibbus, si lippus, si albuginem habens in oculo, si jugem scabiem, si impetiginem in corpore, vel herniosus.
If he be crookbacked; or blear eyed; or have a pearl in his eye, or a continual scab, or a dry scurf in his body, or a rupture.
Si gibse, si lippo, si albugene habente in oculo, si iuge scabie, si impetigine in corpore, vel hernioso.
Omnis qui habuerit maculam de semine Aaron sacerdotis, non accedet offerre hostias Domino, nec panes Deo suo:
Whosoever of the seed of Aaron the priest hath a blemish: he shall not approach to offer sacrifices to the Lord, nor bread to his God.
Omni qui habe macula de semine Aarone de sacerdote, non accede offer hostias ad Domino, nec panes ad Deo suo:
vescetur tamen panibus qui offeruntur in sanctuario,
He shall eat nevertheless of the loaves that are offered in the sanctuary.
Vesce tamen panes qui offer in sanctuario,
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.
Yet so that he enter not within the veil, nor approach to the altar: because he hath a blemish, and he must not defile my sanctuary. I am the Lord who sanctify them.
Ita dumtaxat, ut intra velo non ingredior, nec accede ad altari, quia macula habe, et contamina non sanctuario meo debe. Me Domino qui sanctifica illos.
Locutus est ergo Moyses ad Aaron, et ad filios ejus, et ad omnem Israël cuncta quæ fuerant sibi imperata.
Moses, therefore spoke to Aaron, and to his sons and to all Israel, all the things that had been commanded him.
Locuto es ergo Moyse ad Aarone, et ad filios de illo, et ad omni Israële cuncta que es ad se impera.
