申命記 14
1 你們是上主你們天主的兒女。你們不應為死者割傷自己，不應將頭頂剃光，
'Sons ye [are] to Jehovah your God; ye do not cut yourselves, nor make baldness between your eyes for the dead;
2 因為你是屬於上主你天主的聖潔人民，上主由地上的萬民中，特選了你做他自己的人民。
for a holy people [art] thou to Jehovah thy God, and on thee hath Jehovah fixed to be to Him for a people, a peculiar treasure, out of all the peoples who [are] on the face of the ground.
3 凡是可憎惡之物，你不可吃。
'Thou dost not eat any abominable thing;
4 你們可吃的走獸如下：牛、綿羊、山羊、
'this [is] the beast which ye do eat: ox, lamb of the sheep, or kid of the goats,
5 鹿、羚羊、黈鹿、野山羊、臆羚、野牛和野羊。
hart, and roe, and fallow deer, and wild goat, and pygarg, and wild ox, and chamois;
6 走獸中，凡有偶蹄分趾而又反芻的走獸，你們都可以吃。
and every beast dividing the hoof, and cleaving the cleft into two hoofs, bringing up the cud, among the beasts — it ye do eat.
7 但是在反芻或有偶蹄分趾的走獸中，你們不可吃的：有駱駝、兔子或岩狸，因為牠們雖反芻，蹄卻不分趾，對你們仍是不潔的。
'Only, this ye do not eat, of those bringing up the cud, and of those dividing the cloven hoof: the camel, and the hare, and the rabbit, for they are bringing up the cud but the hoof have not divided; unclean they [are] to you;
8 至於豬，雖有偶蹄，卻不反芻，對你們也是不潔的；你們不可吃這些走獸的肉，也不可摸牠們的屍體。
and the sow, for it is dividing the hoof, and not [bringing] up the cud, unclean it [is] to you; of their flesh ye do not eat, and against their carcase ye do not come.
9 水族中你們可吃的如下：凡有鰭有鱗的，都可以吃；
'This ye do eat of all that [are] in the waters; all that hath fins and scales ye do eat;
10 凡無鰭無鱗的，都不可吃；這一切對你們都是不潔的。
and anything which hath not fins and scales ye do not eat; unclean it [is] to you.
11 凡是潔淨的飛禽，都可以吃。
'Any clean bird ye do eat;
12 飛禽中不可吃的：有鷹、鶚、禿鷲、
and these [are] they of which ye do not eat: the eagle, and the ossifrage, and the ospray,
13 鳶隼、鵰類，
and the glede, and the kite, and the vulture after its kind,
14 凡烏鴉之類，
and every raven after its kind;
15 駝鳥、夜鷹、海鷗，凡蒼鷹之類，
and the owl, and the night-hawk, and the cuckoo, and the hawk after its kind;
16 小梟、鴟梟、梟、白鷺、
the [little] owl, and the [great] owl, and the swan,
17 塘鵝、鴇、鸕鶿、
and the pelican, and the gier-eagle, and the cormorant,
18 鸛鷺類、戴勝和蝙蝠。
and the stork, and the heron after its kind, and the lapwing, and the bat;
19 凡有翅的昆蟲，對你們都是不潔的，都不可吃。
and every teeming thing which is flying, unclean it [is] to you; they are not eaten;
20 凡潔淨的飛禽，都可以吃。
any clean fowl ye do eat.
21 凡自死的動物，你們不可吃，卻可送給在你城內的外方人吃，或賣給外邦人，因為你是屬於上主你天主的聖潔人民。不可煮羊羔在其母奶之中。
'Ye do not eat of any carcase; to the sojourner who [is] within thy gates thou dost give it, and he hath eaten it; or sell [it] to a stranger; for a holy people thou [art] to Jehovah thy God; thou dost not boil a kid in its mother's milk.
22 你每年在田地內播種所得的出產，應繳納十分之一。
'Thou dost certainly tithe all the increase of thy seed which the field is bringing forth year by year;
23 你應在上主選定為立自己名號的地方，於上主你的天主面前，吃那五穀、酒、油的十分之一，及你的頭胎牛羊，好使你能學習著常敬畏上主你的天主。
and thou hast eaten before Jehovah thy God, in the place where He doth choose to cause His name to tabernacle, the tithe of thy corn, of thy new wine, and of thine oil, and the firstlings of thy herd, and of thy flock, so that thou dost learn to fear Jehovah thy God all the days.
24 如果為你路途太遠，你不能把十分之一之物運去，因為上主你的天主選定為立自己名號的地方離你太遠，那麼若上主你的天主祝福了你，
'And when the way is too much for thee, that thou art not able to carry it — when the place is too far off from thee which Jehovah thy God doth choose to put His name there, when Jehovah thy God doth bless thee; —
25 你可以把物品換成銀錢，手中帶著銀錢，往上主你的天主所選的地方，
then thou hast given [it] in money, and hast bound up the money in thy hand, and gone unto the place on which Jehovah thy God doth fix;
26 在那裏可隨意用銀錢買牛羊、清酒和濃酒，以及你願意要的，在上主你的天主面前吃喝，與你的家屬一同歡樂；
and thou hast given the money for any thing which thy soul desireth, for oxen, and for sheep, and for wine, and for strong drink, and for any thing which thy soul asketh, and thou hast eaten there before Jehovah thy God, and thou hast rejoiced, thou and thy house.
27 但在你城內的肋未人，你不可忘記，因為他在你中間沒有分得產業。
As to the Levite who [is] within thy gates, thou dost not forsake him, for he hath no portion and inheritance with thee.
28 每過三年，你應取出全部出產的十分之一，儲藏在你城鎮內，
'At the end of three years thou dost bring out all the tithe of thine increase in that year, and hast placed [it] within thy gates;
29 那沒有與你分得產業的肋未人，和在你城鎮內的外方人、孤兒、寡婦都可來吃喝，得享飽飫，好叫上主你的天主，在你所做的一切事業上祝福你。
and come in hath the Levite (for he hath no part and inheritance with thee), and the sojourner, and the fatherless, and the widow, who [are] within thy gates, and they have eaten, and been satisfied, so that Jehovah thy God doth bless thee in all the work of thy hand which thou dost.
