Leviticus 19
1 And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,
1 Locutus est Dominus ad Moysen, dicens:
2 Speak unto all the congregation of the children of Israel, and say unto them, Ye shall be holy: for I the Lord your God am holy.
2 Loquere ad omnem cœtum filiorum Israël, et dices ad eos: Sancti estote, quia ego sanctus sum, Dominus Deus vester.
3 ¶ Ye shall fear every man his mother, and his father, and keep my sabbaths: I am the Lord your God.
3 Unusquisque patrem suum, et matrem suam timeat. Sabbata mea custodite. Ego Dominus Deus vester.
4 ¶ Turn ye not unto idols, nor make to yourselves molten gods: I am the Lord your God.
4 Nolite converti ad idola, nec deos conflatiles faciatis vobis. Ego Dominus Deus vester.
5 ¶ And if ye offer a sacrifice of peace offerings unto the Lord, ye shall offer it at your own will.
5 Si immolaveritis hostiam pacificorum Domino, ut sit placabilis,
6 It shall be eaten the same day ye offer it, and on the morrow: and if ought remain until the third day, it shall be burnt in the fire.
6 eo die quo fuerit immolata, comedetis eam, et die altero: quidquid autem residuum fuerit in diem tertium, igne comburetis.
7 And if it be eaten at all on the third day, it is abominable; it shall not be accepted.
7 Si quis post biduum comederit ex ea, profanus erit, et impietatis reus:
8 Therefore every one that eateth it shall bear his iniquity, because he hath profaned the hallowed thing of the Lord: and that soul shall be cut off from among his people.
8 portabitque iniquitatem suam, quia sanctum Domini polluit, et peribit anima illa de populo suo.
9 ¶ And when ye reap the harvest of your land, thou shalt not wholly reap the corners of thy field, neither shalt thou gather the gleanings of thy harvest.
9 ¶ Cumque messueris segetes terræ tuæ, non tondebis usque ad solum superficiem terræ, nec remanentes spicas colliges,
10 And thou shalt not glean thy vineyard, neither shalt thou gather every grape of thy vineyard; thou shalt leave them for the poor and stranger: I am the Lord your God.
10 neque in vinea tua racemos et grana decidentia congregabis: sed pauperibus et peregrinis carpenda dimittes. Ego Dominus Deus vester.
11 ¶ Ye shall not steal, neither deal falsely, neither lie one to another.
11 Non facietis furtum. Non mentiemini, nec decipiet unusquisque proximum suum.
12 ¶ And ye shall not swear by my name falsely, neither shalt thou profane the name of thy God: I am the Lord.
12 Non perjurabis in nomine meo, nec pollues nomen Dei tui. Ego Dominus.
13 ¶ Thou shalt not defraud thy neighbour, neither rob him: the wages of him that is hired shall not abide with thee all night until the morning.
13 Non facies calumniam proximo tuo nec vi opprimes eum. Non morabitur opus mercenarii tui apud te usque mane.
14 ¶ Thou shalt not curse the deaf, nor put a stumblingblock before the blind, but shalt fear thy God: I am the Lord.
14 Non maledices surdo, nec coram cæco pones offendiculum: sed timebis Dominum Deum tuum, quia ego sum Dominus.
15 ¶ Ye shall do no unrighteousness in judgment: thou shalt not respect the person of the poor, nor honour the person of the mighty: but in righteousness shalt thou judge thy neighbour.
15 Non facies quod iniquum est, nec injuste judicabis. Non consideres personam pauperis, nec honores vultum potentis. Juste judica proximo tuo.
16 ¶ Thou shalt not go up and down as a talebearer among thy people: neither shalt thou stand against the blood of thy neighbour: I am the Lord.
16 Non eris criminator, nec susurro in populo. Non stabis contra sanguinem proximi tui. Ego Dominus.
17 ¶ Thou shalt not hate thy brother in thine heart: thou shalt in any wise rebuke thy neighbour, and not suffer sin upon him.
17 Non oderis fratrem tuum in corde tuo, sed publice argue eum, ne habeas super illo peccatum.
18 ¶ Thou shalt not avenge, nor bear any grudge against the children of thy people, but thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself: I am the Lord.
18 Non quæras ultionem, nec memor eris injuriæ civium tuorum. Diliges amicum tuum sicut teipsum. Ego Dominus.
19 ¶ Ye shall keep my statutes. Thou shalt not let thy cattle gender with a diverse kind: thou shalt not sow thy field with mingled seed: neither shall a garment mingled of linen and woollen come upon thee.
19 ¶ Leges meas custodite. Jumentum tuum non facies coire cum alterius generis animantibus. Agrum tuum non seres diverso semine. Veste, quæ ex duobus texta est, non indueris.
20 ¶ And whosoever lieth carnally with a woman, that is a bondmaid, betrothed to an husband, and not at all redeemed, nor freedom given her; she shall be scourged; they shall not be put to death, because she was not free.
20 Homo, si dormierit cum muliere coitu seminis, quæ sit ancilla etiam nubilis, et tamen pretio non redempta, nec libertate donata: vapulabunt ambo, et non morientur, quia non fuit libera.
21 And he shall bring his trespass offering unto the Lord, unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, even a ram for a trespass offering.
21 Pro delicto autem suo offeret Domino ad ostium tabernaculi testimonii arietem:
22 And the priest shall make an atonement for him with the ram of the trespass offering before the Lord for his sin which he hath done: and the sin which he hath done shall be forgiven him.
22 orabitque pro eo sacerdos, et pro peccato ejus coram Domino, et repropitiabitur ei, dimitteturque peccatum.
23 ¶ And when ye shall come into the land, and shall have planted all manner of trees for food, then ye shall count the fruit thereof as uncircumcised: three years shall it be as uncircumcised unto you: it shall not be eaten of.
23 Quando ingressi fueritis terram, et plantaveritis in ea ligna pomifera, auferetis præputia eorum: poma, quæ germinant, immunda erunt vobis, nec edetis ex eis.
24 But in the fourth year all the fruit thereof shall be holy to praise the Lord withal.
24 Quarto autem anno omnis fructus eorum sanctificabitur, laudabilis Domino.
25 And in the fifth year shall ye eat of the fruit thereof, that it may yield unto you the increase thereof: I am the Lord your God.
25 Quinto autem anno comedetis fructus, congregantes poma, quæ proferunt. Ego Dominus Deus vester.
26 ¶ Ye shall not eat any thing with the blood: neither shall ye use enchantment, nor observe times.
26 Non comedetis cum sanguine. Non augurabimini, nec observabitis somnia.
27 Ye shall not round the corners of your heads, neither shalt thou mar the corners of thy beard.
27 Neque in rotundum attondebitis comam, nec radetis barbam.
28 Ye shall not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor print any marks upon you: I am the Lord.
28 Et super mortuo non incidetis carnem vestram, neque figuras aliquas aut stigmata facietis vobis. Ego Dominus.
29 ¶ Do not prostitute thy daughter, to cause her to be a whore; lest the land fall to whoredom, and the land become full of wickedness.
29 Ne prostituas filiam tuam, ne contaminetur terra et impleatur piaculo.
30 ¶ Ye shall keep my sabbaths, and reverence my sanctuary: I am the Lord.
30 Sabbata mea custodite, et sanctuarium meum metuite. Ego Dominus.
31 ¶ Regard not them that have familiar spirits, neither seek after wizards, to be defiled by them: I am the Lord your God.
31 Non declinetis ad magos, nec ab ariolis aliquid sciscitemini, ut polluamini per eos. Ego Dominus Deus vester.
32 ¶ Thou shalt rise up before the hoary head, and honour the face of the old man, and fear thy God: I am the Lord.
32 Coram cano capite consurge, et honora personam senis: et time Dominum Deum tuum. Ego sum Dominus.
33 ¶ And if a stranger sojourn with thee in your land, ye shall not vex him.
33 ¶ Si habitaverit advena in terra vestra, et moratus fuerit inter vos, non exprobretis ei:
34 But the stranger that dwelleth with you shall be unto you as one born among you, and thou shalt love him as thyself; for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt: I am the Lord your God.
34 sed sit inter vos quasi indigena, et diligetis eum quasi vosmetipsos: fuistis enim et vos advenæ in terra Ægypti. Ego Dominus Deus vester.
35 ¶ Ye shall do no unrighteousness in judgment, in meteyard, in weight, or in measure.
35 ¶ Nolite facere iniquum aliquid in judicio, in regula, in pondere, in mensura.
36 Just balances, just weights, a just ephah, and a just hin, shall ye have: I am the Lord your God, which brought you out of the land of Egypt.
36 Statera justa, et æqua sint pondera, justus modius, æquusque sextarius. Ego Dominus Deus vester, qui eduxi vos de terra Ægypti.
37 Therefore shall ye observe all my statutes, and all my judgments, and do them: I am the Lord.
37 Custodite omnia præcepta mea, et universa judicia, et facite ea. Ego Dominus.
