The Latin Vulgate VUL
Revised Standard Version RSV
1 arreptisque Nadab et Abiu filii Aaron turibulis posuerunt ignem et incensum desuper offerentes coram Domino ignem alienum quod eis praeceptum non erat
1
Now Nadab and Abi'hu, the sons of Aaron, each took his censer, and put fire in it, and laid incense on it, and offered unholy fire before the LORD, such as he had not commanded them.
2 egressusque ignis a Domino devoravit eos et mortui sunt coram Domino
2
And fire came forth from the presence of the LORD and devoured them, and they died before the LORD.
3 dixitque Moses ad Aaron hoc est quod locutus est Dominus sanctificabor in his qui adpropinquant mihi et in conspectu omnis populi glorificabor quod audiens tacuit Aaron
3
Then Moses said to Aaron, "This is what the LORD has said, 'I will show myself holy among those who are near me, and before all the people I will be glorified.'" And Aaron held his peace.
4 vocatis autem Moses Misahel et Elsaphan filios Ozihel patrui Aaron ait ad eos ite et colligite fratres vestros de conspectu sanctuarii et asportate extra castra
4
And Moses called Mish'a-el and Elza'phan, the sons of Uz'ziel the uncle of Aaron, and said to them, "Draw near, carry your brethren from before the sanctuary out of the camp."
5 confestimque pergentes tulerunt eos sicut iacebant vestitos lineis tunicis et eiecerunt foras ut sibi fuerat imperatum
5
So they drew near, and carried them in their coats out of the camp, as Moses had said.
6 locutus est Moses ad Aaron et ad Eleazar atque Ithamar filios eius capita vestra nolite nudare et vestimenta nolite scindere ne forte moriamini et super omnem coetum oriatur indignatio fratres vestri et omnis domus Israhel plangant incendium quod Dominus suscitavit
6
And Moses said to Aaron and to Elea'zar and Ith'amar, his sons, "Do not let the hair of your heads hang loose, and do not rend your clothes, lest you die, and lest wrath come upon all the congregation; but your brethren, the whole house of Israel, may bewail the burning which the LORD has kindled.
7 vos autem non egredimini fores tabernaculi alioquin peribitis oleum quippe sanctae unctionis est super vos qui fecerunt omnia iuxta praeceptum Mosi
7
And do not go out from the door of the tent of meeting, lest you die; for the anointing oil of the LORD is upon you." And they did according to the word of Moses.
8 dixit quoque Dominus ad Aaron
8
And the LORD spoke to Aaron, saying,
9 vinum et omne quod inebriare potest non bibetis tu et filii tui quando intratis tabernaculum testimonii ne moriamini quia praeceptum est sempiternum in generationes vestras
9
"Drink no wine nor strong drink, you nor your sons with you, when you go into the tent of meeting, lest you die; it shall be a statute for ever throughout your generations.
10 et ut habeatis scientiam discernendi inter sanctum et profanum inter pollutum et mundum
10
You are to distinguish between the holy and the common, and between the unclean and the clean;
11 doceatisque filios Israhel omnia legitima mea quae locutus est Dominus ad eos per manum Mosi
11
and you are to teach the people of Israel all the statutes which the LORD has spoken to them by Moses."
12 locutusque est Moses ad Aaron et ad Eleazar atque Ithamar filios eius qui residui erant tollite sacrificium quod remansit de oblatione Domini et comedite illud absque fermento iuxta altare quia sanctum sanctorum est
12
And Moses said to Aaron and to Elea'zar and Ith'amar, his sons who were left, "Take the cereal offering that remains of the offerings by fire to the LORD, and eat it unleavened beside the altar, for it is most holy;
13 comedetis autem in loco sancto quod datum est tibi et filiis tuis de oblationibus Domini sicut praeceptum est mihi
13
you shall eat it in a holy place, because it is your due and your sons' due, from the offerings by fire to the LORD; for so I am commanded.
14 pectusculum quoque quod oblatum est et armum qui separatus est edetis in loco mundissimo tu et filii tui ac filiae tuae tecum tibi enim ac liberis tuis reposita sunt de hostiis salutaribus filiorum Israhel
14
But the breast that is waved and the thigh that is offered you shall eat in any clean place, you and your sons and your daughters with you; for they are given as your due and your sons' due, from the sacrifices of the peace offerings of the people of Israel.
15 eo quod armum et pectus et adipes qui cremantur in altari elevaverint coram Domino et pertineant ad te et ad filios tuos lege perpetua sicut praecepit Dominus
15
The thigh that is offered and the breast that is waved they shall bring with the offerings by fire of the fat, to wave for a wave offering before the LORD, and it shall be yours, and your sons' with you, as a due for ever; as the LORD has commanded."
16 inter haec hircum qui oblatus fuerat pro peccato cum quaereret Moses exustum repperit iratusque contra Eleazar et Ithamar filios Aaron qui remanserant ait
16
Now Moses diligently inquired about the goat of the sin offering, and behold, it was burned! And he was angry with Elea'zar and Ith'amar, the sons of Aaron who were left, saying,
17 cur non comedistis hostiam pro peccato in loco sancto quae sancta sanctorum est et data vobis ut portetis iniquitatem multitudinis et rogetis pro ea in conspectu Domini
17
"Why have you not eaten the sin offering in the place of the sanctuary, since it is a thing most holy and has been given to you that you may bear the iniquity of the congregation, to make atonement for them before the LORD?
18 praesertim cum de sanguine illius non sit inlatum intra sancta et comedere eam debueritis in sanctuario sicut praeceptum est mihi
18
Behold, its blood was not brought into the inner part of the sanctuary. You certainly ought to have eaten it in the sanctuary, as I commanded."
19 respondit Aaron oblata est hodie victima pro peccato et holocaustum coram Domino mihi autem accidit quod vides quomodo potui comedere eam aut placere Domino in caerimoniis mente lugubri
19
And Aaron said to Moses, "Behold, today they have offered their sin offering and their burnt offering before the LORD; and yet such things as these have befallen me! If I had eaten the sin offering today, would it have been acceptable in the sight of the LORD?"
20 quod cum audisset Moses recepit satisfactionem
20
And when Moses heard that, he was content.
