- Custodiant præcepta mea, ut non subjaceant peccato, et moriantur in sanctuario, cum polluerint illud. Ego Dominus qui sanctifico eos.
- Septuagint (Swete)
- καὶ φυλάξονται τὰ φυλάγματά μου, ἵνα μὴ λάβωσιν δι᾽ αὐτὰ ἁμαρτίαν, καὶ ἀποθάνωσιν δι᾽ αὐτό· ἐὰν δὲ βεβηλώσουσιν αὐτά, ἐγὼ Κύριος ὁ θεὸς ὁ ἁγιάζων αὐτούς.

- וְשָׁמְר֣וּ אֶת מִשְׁמַרְתִּ֗י וְלֹֽא יִשְׂא֤וּ עָלָיו֙ חֵ֔טְא וּמֵ֥תוּ ב֖וֹ כִּ֣י יְחַלְּלֻ֑הוּ אֲנִ֥י יְהוָ֖ה מְקַדְּשָֽׁם
Haydock's commentary
In the sanctuary, is not found in Hebrew which is difficult to explain. "They shall observe my precepts, (or "watches," entering upon the ministry at 17; Josephus; Menochius) and not bear sin for it, and die in it, because they have profaned it;" which it, may be understood either of the consecrated food, (ver. 7,) or of the sanctuary. (Calmet)
