申命記 18
1 肋未人司祭即全肋未支派，在以色列中沒有分子和產業，他們靠獻與上主的火祭祭品，和他們應得的一分維持生活。
Not it will belong to the priests the Levites all [the] tribe of Levi a portion and an inheritance with Israel [the] fire offerings of Yahweh and inheritance his they will eat!
2 他在兄弟中間沒有產業；照上主向他所說的，上主自己要作他們的產業。
And an inheritance not it will belong to him in [the] midst countrymen his Yahweh he [is] inheritance his just as he spoke to him.
3 這是司祭由人民應得的一份，就是宰殺牛羊作祭獻的人，應將前腿、兩腮和胃臟給司祭；
And this it will be [the] right of the priests from with the people from with [those who] sacrifice the sacrifice whether ox or sheep and he will give to the priest the arm and the two cheeks and the stomach.
4 初收的五穀、酒、油和初剪的羊毛，亦應給他，
[the] first of Grain your new wine your and fresh oil your and [the] first of [the] fleece of sheep your you will give to him.
5 因為上主你的天主由各支派中揀選了他，叫他和他的子孫，時時以上主的名義服役供職。
For him he has chosen Yahweh God your from all tribes your to stand to serve in [the] name of Yahweh he and descendants his all the days.
6 如果一個住在以色列境內任何城鎮的肋未人，離開了本地，一心一意地要到上主所選的地方去，
And if he will come Levite from one of gates your from all Israel where he [was] sojourning there and he will come in all [the] desire of self his to the place which he will choose Yahweh.
7 他可因上主的名義供職，如同在那裏侍立於上主面前的肋未弟兄們一樣，
And he will serve in [the] name of Yahweh God his like all relatives his the Levites who stand there before Yahweh.
8 分享同樣的口糧，不必變賣祖產。
A portion like a portion they will eat besides sales his on the fathers.
9 幾時你進入了上主你的天主賜給你的土地，不要仿傚那些異民做可憎惡的事。
If you [have] gone into the land which Yahweh God your [is] about to give to you not you will learn to do according to [the] abominations of the nations those.
10 在你中間，不可容許人使自己的兒子或女兒經過火，也不可容許人占卜、算卦、行妖術或魔術；
Not he will be found among you [one who] makes pass son his and daughter his in the fire [one who] divines divinations a soothsayer and an augurer and a sorcerer.
11 或念咒、問鬼、算命和求問死者；
And [one who] casts a spell and [one who] consults a necromancer and a familiar spirit and [one who] enquires to the dead.
12 因為凡做這些事的人，都是上主所憎惡的；其實就是為了這些可憎惡的事，上主你的天主纔把他們由你面前趕走。
That [is] [the] abomination of Yahweh every [one who] does these [things] and on account of the abominations these Yahweh God your [is] about to dispossess them from before you.
13 你應一心一意屬於上主你的天主。
Blameless you will be with Yahweh God your.
14 你要趕走的這些民族，聽信了算卦和占卜的人；但上主你的天主為你卻不是這樣安排；
For - the nations these which you [are] about to dispossess them to soothsayers and to diviners they listen and you not thus he has permitted to you Yahweh God your.
15 上主你的天主，要由你中間，由你兄弟中，為你興起一位像我一樣的先知，你們應聽信他。
A prophet from midst your one of countrymen your like me he will raise up for you Yahweh God your to him you will listen!
16 正如你在曷勒布集會之日，求上主你的天主說：「惟願我再不聽見上主我的天主的聲音，再不看見這烈火，免得我死亡。」
According to all that you asked from with Yahweh God your at Horeb on [the] day of the assembly saying not me repeat to hear [the] voice of Yahweh God my and the fire great this not let me see again and not I will die.
17 上主遂對我說：「他們說得有理，
And he said Yahweh to me they have done well [that] which they have spoken.
18 我要由他們的兄弟中，給他們興起一位像你一樣的先知，我要將我的話放在他口中，他要向他們講述我所吩咐他的一切。
A prophet I will raise up for them from [the] midst of countrymen their like you and I will put words my in mouth his and he will speak to them all that I will command him.
19 若有人不聽信他因我的名所說的話，我要親自同他算賬。
And it will be the person who not he will listen to words my which he will speak in name my I I will require from with him.
20 但是，若一位先知擅敢因我的名說我沒有吩咐他說的話，或因其他神的名說話，這位先知應該處死。」
Nevertheless the prophet who he will act presumptuously by speaking a word in name my [that] which not I commanded him to speak and who he will speak in [the] name of gods other and he will die the prophet him.
21 也許你心裏想：「我們怎能知道上主未曾說過這話﹖」
And if you will say in heart your how? will we know the word which not he has spoken it Yahweh.
22 幾時一位先知因上主之名說話，若他的話不實現，不應驗，這話就不是上主說的，是先知擅自說的，你不用怕他。
That he will speak the prophet in [the] name of Yahweh and not it will happen the thing and not it will come that [is] the word which not he has spoken it Yahweh with presumption he has spoken it the prophet not you will be afraid from him.
