1 El Señor ordenó a Moisés
1 Yahweh said to Moses,
2 que les dijera a los israelitas: «Yo soy el Señor su Dios.
2 “Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them, ‘I am Yahweh your God.
3 Por lo tanto, no se comporten como los paganos, como el pueblo de Egipto donde vivieron tanto tiempo, ni como los cananeos a cuya tierra los conduzco.
3 You shall not do as they do in the land of Egypt, where you lived. You shall not do as they do in the land of Canaan, where I am bringing you. You shall not follow their statutes.
4 Solamente obedecerán mis leyes y las cumplirán al pie de la letra, porque yo soy el Señor su Dios. Si las obedecen tendrán vida. Yo soy el Señor.
4 You shall do my ordinances. You shall keep my statutes and walk in them. I am Yahweh your God.

25 The land was defiled. Therefore I punished its iniquity, and the land vomited out her inhabitants.
26 Deben obedecer completamente todas mis leyes y ordenanzas, y no deben hacer ninguna de las depravaciones que ellos practican. Estas leyes tienen vigor para los que han nacido en Israel y para los extranjeros que vivan entre ustedes.
26 You therefore shall keep my statutes and my ordinances, and shall not do any of these abominations; neither the native-born, nor the stranger who lives as a foreigner among you
27 »Todas estas depravaciones han sido practicadas habitualmente por los habitantes de la tierra a donde los llevaré, por eso la tierra está contaminada.
27 (for the men of the land that were before you had done all these abominations, and the land became defiled),
28 No deben hacer estas cosas, o los expulsaré de la tierra, del mismo modo que arrojaré a las naciones que allí viven ahora.
28 that the land not vomit you out also, when you defile it, as it vomited out the nation that was before you.
29 »Cualquiera que practique alguna de estas inmundicias será expulsado del pueblo. Obedezcan, pues, mis leyes y no practiquen las costumbres detestables de la gente de esos pueblos. No se contaminen con las prácticas inmundas de los que viven en la tierra a la que entrarán ustedes. Yo soy el Señor su Dios».
