| 肋未紀 |
Leviticus |
| 1亞郎的兒子納達布和阿彼胡，各自取了火盤，放上火，加上乳香，在上主面前奉獻了上主所禁止的凡火。 |
1 During this time Aaron's sons Nadab and Abihu took their censers and, strewing incense on the fire they had put in them, they offered up before the LORD profane fire, such as he had not authorized. |
| 2那時由上主面前噴出火來，將他們燒死在上主面前。 |
2 Fire therefore came forth from the LORD'S presence and consumed them, so that they died in his presence. |
| 3梅瑟遂對亞郎說：「這就是上主所說：對親近我的人，我要顯我為聖；在全民眾前我要以我為尊。」亞郎默不作聲。 |
3 Moses then said to Aaron, "This is as the LORD said: Through those who approach me I will manifest my sacredness; In the sight of all the people I will reveal my glory." But Aaron said nothing. |
| 4梅瑟遂叫了亞郎的叔父烏齊耳的兒子米沙耳和厄耳匝番來，對他們說：「前來，將你們的兄弟由聖所前抬到營外去！」 |
4Then Moses summoned Mishael and Elzaphan, the sons of Aaron's uncle Uzziel, with the order, "Come, remove your kinsmen from the sanctuary and carry them to a place outside the camp." |
| 5他們就前去，抓住死者的衣服，將死者抬到營外，照梅瑟所吩咐的。 |
5 So they went in and took them, in their tunics, outside the camp, as Moses had commanded. |
| 6以後，梅瑟對亞郎和他的兒子厄肋阿匝爾及依塔瑪爾說：「不要散開你們的頭髮，不要撕裂你們的衣服，免得你們死亡，也免得上主對全會眾發怒；讓你們的弟兄以色列全家，去為上主燃起的火哀悼。 |
6 Moses said to Aaron and his sons Eleazar and Ithamar, "Do not bare your heads or tear your garments, lest you bring not only death on yourselves but God's wrath also on the whole community. Your kinsmen, the rest of the house of Israel, shall mourn for those whom the LORD'S fire has smitten; |
| 7你們也不要走出會幕門口，免得你們死亡，因為上主的傅油還在你們身上。」他們就照梅瑟說的做了。 |
7but do not you go beyond the entry of the meeting tent, else you shall die; for the anointing oil of the LORD is upon you." So they did as Moses told them. |
| 8上主訓示亞郎說： |
8The LORD said to Aaron, |
| 9「你或你的兒子進入會幕時，清酒或醇酒都不可飲，免得你們死亡：這為你們世世代代是一條永久的法令。 |
9"When you are to go to the meeting tent, you and your sons are forbidden under pain of death, by a perpetual ordinance throughout your generations, to drink any wine or strong drink. |
| 10因為在聖與俗，潔與不潔之間，你們應分辨清楚， |
10You must be able to distinguish between what is sacred and what is profane, between what is clean and what is unclean; |
| 11並應教訓以色列子民，上主藉梅瑟吩咐他們的一切法令。」 |
11you must teach the Israelites all the laws that the LORD has given them through Moses." |
| 12以後，梅瑟對亞郎和他尚存的兒子厄肋阿匝爾及依塔瑪爾說：「獻與上主的火祭中所剩下的素祭祭品，你們應拿來在祭壇旁吃，應吃死麵的，因為這是至聖之物。 |
12Moses said to Aaron and his surviving sons, Eleazar and Ithamar, "Take the cereal offering left over from the oblations of the LORD, and eat it beside the altar in the form of unleavened cakes. Since it is most sacred, |
| 13你們在聖處吃，因為這是你和你的兒子，由獻與上主的火祭中，所獲得的權利；上主曾這樣吩咐了我。 |
13you must eat it in a sacred place. This is your due from the oblations of the LORD, and that of your sons; such is the command I have received. |
| 14至於搖過的胸脯和舉過的後腿，你和你的兒子以及與你尚在一起的女兒，可在一清潔地方吃；這原是由以色列子民獻的和平祭中，給予你和你子女的權利。 |
14With your sons and daughters you shall also eat the breast of the wave offering and the leg of the raised offering, in a clean place; for these have been assigned to you and your children as your due from the peace offerings of the Israelites. |
| 15與獻作火祭的脂肪一起所舉過的後腿和搖過的胸脯，在上主面前行過奉獻搖禮之後，都歸你和與你在一起的子女：這是你們永久的權利，照上主所吩咐的。」 |
15The leg of the raised offering and the breast of the wave offering shall first be brought in with the oblations, the fatty portions, that are to be waved as a wave offering before the LORD. Then they shall belong to you and your children by a perpetual ordinance, as the LORD has commanded." |
| 16梅瑟尋找那作贖罪祭的公山羊的時候，發現已經燒了；於是對亞郎尚存的兒子厄肋阿匝爾及依塔瑪爾發怒說： |
16 When Moses inquired about the goat of the sin offering, he discovered that it had all been burned. So he was angry with the surviving sons of Aaron, Eleazar and Ithamar, and said, |
| 17「為什麼你們沒有在聖處吃這贖罪祭祭肉？這原是至聖之物；上主所以給了你們，是為消除會眾的罪過，在上主面前為他們贖罪。 |
17"Why did you not eat the sin offering in the sacred place, since it is most sacred? It has been given to you that you might bear the guilt of the community and make atonement for them before the LORD. |
| 18這犧牲的血既然沒有帶到聖所裏去，你們應照我所吩咐的，在聖處吃這祭肉。」 |
18If its blood was not brought into the inmost part of the sanctuary, you should certainly have eaten the offering in the sanctuary, in keeping with the command I had received." |
| 19亞郎對梅瑟說：「你看，他們今天在上主面前奉獻了贖罪祭和全燔祭，竟有這樣的事發生在我身上！我今天若吃贖罪祭祭肉，上主豈能滿意？」 |
19Aaron answered Moses, "Even though they presented their sin offering and holocaust before the LORD today, yet this misfortune has befallen me. Had I then eaten of the sin offering today, would it have been pleasing to the LORD?" |
| 20梅瑟聽了這話，也頗為滿意。 |
20On hearing this, Moses was satisfied. |
