利未記 1
1 上主叫了梅瑟來，由會幕中訓示他說：
Then the LORD called to Moses and spoke to him from the Tent of Meeting, saying,
2 你告訴以色列子民說：你們中若有人願意由家畜中給上主奉獻祭品。應以牛羊作你們的祭品。
“Speak to the Israelites and tell them: When any of you brings an offering to the LORD, you may bring as your offering an animal from the herd or the flock.
3 若有人獻牛作全燔祭，該獻一條無瑕的公牛，牽到會幕門口，為在上主面前蒙受納悅；
If one’s offering is a burnt offering from the herd, he is to present an unblemished male. He must bring it to the entrance to the Tent of Meeting for its acceptance before the LORD.
4 先按手在全燔祭的頭上，使祭牲蒙受納悅，代自己贖罪。
He is to lay his hand on the head of the burnt offering, so it can be accepted on his behalf to make atonement for him.
5 以後在上主面前宰了那牛，亞郎的兒子司祭們，應奉獻牲血，將血灑在會幕門的祭壇的四週。
And he shall slaughter the young bull before the LORD, and Aaron’s sons the priests are to present the blood and sprinkle it on all sides of the altar at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.
6 奉獻者剝去祭牲的皮，將犧牲切成塊。
Next, he is to skin the burnt offering and cut it into pieces.
7 亞郎的兒子司祭們先將火放在祭壇上，火上擺上木柴；
The sons of Aaron the priest shall put a fire on the altar and arrange wood on the fire.
8 然後亞郎的兒子司祭們，將成塊的肉、頭和脂肪，擺在祭壇火上的木柴上。
Then Aaron’s sons the priests are to arrange the pieces, including the head and the fat, atop the burning wood on the altar.
9 奉獻者應用水將內臟和小腿洗淨；司祭將這一切放在祭壇上焚燒，作為全燔祭，作為中悅上主的馨香火祭。
The entrails and legs must be washed with water, and the priest shall burn all of it on the altar as a burnt offering, an offering made by fire, a pleasing aroma to the LORD.
10 若有人獻羊作全燔祭，不論是綿羊，或是山羊，該獻一頭無瑕的公羊。
If, however, one’s offering is a burnt offering from the flock—from the sheep or goats—he is to present an unblemished male.
11 應在上主面前，祭台的北邊將牠宰了；亞郎的兒子司祭們，應將血灑在祭壇的四週。
He shall slaughter it on the north side of the altar before the LORD, and Aaron’s sons the priests are to sprinkle its blood against the altar on all sides.
12 然後奉獻者應將祭牲切成塊，司祭將成塊的肉、頭和脂肪，擺在祭壇火上的木柴上。
He is to cut the animal into pieces, and the priest shall arrange them, including the head and fat, atop the burning wood that is on the altar.
13 那人應用水將內臟和小腿洗淨；司祭將這一切放在祭壇上焚燒，作為全燔祭，作為中悅上主的馨香火祭。
The entrails and legs must be washed with water, and the priest shall bring all of it and burn it on the altar; it is a burnt offering, an offering made by fire, a pleasing aroma to the LORD.
14 若有人給上主獻飛禽作全燔祭，該獻班鳩或雛鴿作祭品。
If, instead, one’s offering to the LORD is a burnt offering of birds, he is to present a turtledove or a young pigeon.
15 司祭應將牠帶到祭壇前，扭斷他的頭，放在祭壇上焚燒；先把牠的血靠在祭壇的旁邊擠盡，
Then the priest shall bring it to the altar, twist off its head, and burn it on the altar; its blood should be drained out on the side of the altar.
16 然後那人將嗉囊和羽毛拔去，丟在祭壇東邊倒灰的地方。
And he is to remove the crop with its contents and throw it to the east side of the altar, in the place for ashes.
17 然後司祭將犧牲由兩翼的中間撕開，但不可分離；放在祭壇上焚燒，作為全燔祭，作為中悅上主的馨香火祭。
He shall tear it open by its wings, without dividing the bird completely. And the priest is to burn it on the altar atop the burning wood. It is a burnt offering, an offering made by fire, a pleasing aroma to the LORD.
