Liber Levitici

Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen, dicens:

And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:

Et locuto es Domino ad Moyse, dicente:

Hæc loqueris filiis Israël: Homo de filiis Israël, et de advenis qui habitant in Israël, si quis dederit de semine suo idolo Moloch, morte moriatur: populus terræ lapidabit eum.

Thus shalt thou say to the children of Israel: If any man of the children Israel, or of the strangers that dwell in Israel, give of his seed to the idol Moloch, dying let him die. The people of the land shall stone him.

Hoc loque ad filios Israële: homine de filios Israële, et de advenos qui habita in Israële, si qui da de semine suo idolo Moloch, morte more: populo de terra lapida illo.

Et ego ponam faciem meam contra illum: succidamque eum de medio populi sui, eo quod dederit de semine suo Moloch, et contaminaverit sanctuarium meum, ac polluerit nomen sanctum meum.

And I will set my face against him: and I will cut him off from the midst of his people, because he hath given of his seed to Moloch, and hath defiled my sanctuary, and profaned my holy name.

Et me pone facie meo contra illo: et succide illo de medio de populo suo, eo quod da de semine suo Moloch, et contamina sanctuario meo, et pollue nomine sancto meo.

Quod si negligens populus terræ, et quasi parvipendens imperium meum, dimiserit hominem qui dedit de semine suo Moloch, nec voluerit eum occidere:

And if the people of the land neglecting, and as it were little regarding my commandment, let alone the man that hath given of his seed to Moloch, and will not kill him:

Quod si neglige populo de terra, et quasi parvipende imperio meo, dimitte homine qui da de semine suo Moloch, nec vol illo occide:

ponam faciem meam super hominem illum, et super cognationem ejus, succidamque et ipsum, et omnes qui consenserunt ei ut fornicarentur cum Moloch, de medio populi sui.

I will set my face against that man, and his kindred, and will cut off both him and all that consented with him, to commit fornication with Moloch, out of the midst of their people.

Pone facie meo super homine illo, et super cognatione de illo, et succide et ipso, et omni qui consentie ad illo ut fornicor cum Moloch, de medio de populo suo.

Anima, quæ declinaverit ad magos et ariolos, et fornicata fuerit cum eis, ponam faciem meam contra eam, et interficiam illam de medio populi sui.

The soul that shall go aside after magicians, and soothsayers, and shall commit fornication with them: I will set my face against that soul, and destroy it out of the midst of its people.

Anima, que declina ad magos et ariolos, et fornicor es cum illos, pone facie meo contra illa, et interfice illa de medio de populo suo.

Sanctificamini et estote sancti, quia ego sum Dominus Deus vester.

Sanctify yourselves, and be ye holy: because I am the Lord your God.

Sanctifica et es sancto, quia me es Domino Deo vestro.

Custodite præcepta mea, et facite ea: ego Dominus qui sanctifico vos.

Keep my precepts, and do them. I am the Lord that sanctify you.

Custodi praeceptos meo, et me Domino: qui sanctifica vos fac illa.

Separate ergo et vos jumentum mundum ab immundo, et avem mundam ab immunda: ne polluatis animas vestras in pecore, et avibus, et cunctis quæ moventur in terra, et quæ vobis ostendi esse polluta.

Therefore do you also separate the clean beast from the unclean, and the clean fowl from the unclean. Defile not your souls with beasts, or birds, or any things that move on the earth, and which I have shewn you to be unclean:
