利未記 22
1 上主訓示梅瑟：」
And Yahweh spake unto Moses, saying:
2 你告訴亞郎和他的兒子，叫他們對以色列子民獻與我的聖物應謹慎，免得褻瀆了我的聖名：我是上主。
Speak unto Aaron, and unto his sons, That they hold sacredly aloof from the holy things of the sons of Israel, so as not to profane my holy name, —in the things which they are hallowing unto me—I, am Yahweh.
3 你對他們說：世世代代，你們後裔中，若有玷汙不潔的，竟敢接近以色列子民獻與上主的聖物，這人應由我面前剷除：我是上主。
Say unto them—Unto your generations, as touching any man who cometh near from among any of your seed, unto the hallowed things which the sons of Israel may hallow unto Yahweh, while his uncleanness is upon him, then shall that person be cut off from before me—I, am Yahweh.
4 亞郎的後裔中，凡患癩病或淋病的，在他未取潔之前，不可吃聖物；凡摸過死屍所染不潔之物的，或遺精的人，
No man soever of the seed of Aaron who is a leper, or hath a flux, shall eat of the holy things, until he be clean, —And as for him who toucheth anything that is unclean by the dead, or a man whose seed goeth from him;
5 或摸了任何能染上不潔的爬蟲，或摸了能使自己染上任何不潔的人；
or a man who toucheth any creeping thing, which is unclean to him, —or [toucheth] any human being who hath uncleanness, to the extent of any thing that maketh him unclean,
6 凡摸了這些東西的人，直到晚上是不潔的，除非他用水洗身，不准吃聖物。
any person who toucheth any such, shall then be unclean until the evening, —and shall not eat of the hallowed things, unless he bathe his flesh in water.
7 太陽一落，他就潔淨了，以後可以吃聖物，因為這是屬他的食物。
When the sun tooth in, then is he clean, —and thereafter, he may eat of the hallowed things, for, his food, it is.
8 不可吃自死或被猛壽撕裂的獸肉，免得染上不潔：我是上主。
That which dieth of itself or is torn in pieces, shall he not eat to make himself unclean thereby, —I, am Yahweh.
9 他們應遵守我的訓令，免陷於罪惡；因此褻瀆訓令的，必遭死亡：我是使他們成聖的上主。
Therefore shall they keep my charge, and shall not bear, for it, sin, and die therein, when they profane it, —I—Yahweh, am hallowing them.
10 任何族外人，不准吃聖物；司祭的客人和傭工，也不准吃聖物；
And, no stranger, shall eat what is hallowed, —neither, one who dwelleth with a priest nor a hireling shall eat what is hallowed.
11 但是司祭用銀錢買來的僕人，卻可以吃；凡生在他家的人，也可以吃這食物。
But when, a priest, buyeth any person, as the purchase of his silver, he may eat thereof, —and, the children of his household, they, may eat of his food.
12 司祭的女兒，如嫁給族外人為妻，不准吃作獻儀的聖物；
And, when, a priest’s daughter, belongeth to a husband, who is a stranger, she, of the heave-offering of the hallowed things, may not eat.
13 但是司祭的女兒，如成了寡婦或棄婦，因沒有兒子，又回到父家，如同她年輕時一樣，可以吃她父親的食物；但是任何族外人不得吃。
But, when a priest’s daughter, cometh to be a widow or divorced and hath no seed, and so she returneth unto the house of her father, as in her youth, of the food of her father, she may eat, —but no stranger, shall eat thereof.
14 如果一人因不慎而吃了聖物，應償還所吃的聖物，還應另加五分之一，交與司祭。
And, when, any man, eateth what is hallowed, by mistake, then shall he add the fifth part of it thereunto, and give unto the priest the hallowed thing:
15 司祭不應讓以色列子民褻瀆所獻與上主的聖物，
So shall they not profane the hallowed things of the sons of Israel, —which they heave up unto Yahweh;
16 而使他們應吃自己獻的聖物，負起賠償的罪債；因為我是使他們成聖的上主。「祭牲應無瑕疵
nor cause them to bear guilty iniquity, when they eat their hallowed things, —For, I—Yahweh, am hallowing them.
17 上主訓示梅瑟說：」
And Yahweh spake unto Moses, saying:
18 你告訴和亞郎和他的兒子，以及全體以色列子民說：以色列家中或住在以色列中的外方人，任何人如奉獻祭品，不管是為還願，或出於自願，獻給上主作全番祭的，
Speak unto Aaron, and unto his sons, and unto all the sons of Israel, and thou shalt say unto them—What man, soever, of the house of Israel, or of the sojourners in Israel, may bring near his oblation, as regardeth any of their vows, or any of their freewill offerings which they may bring near unto Yahweh, as an ascending-sacrifice,
19 應是一隻無暇的公牛，公綿羊，或公山羊，方蒙悅納。
that ye may be accepted, [it must be] a male without defect, of the beeves, or of the sheep, or of the goats:
20 凡身上有殘疾的，你們不應奉獻，因為這樣為你們決不會獲得悅納。
whatsoever hath in it a blemish, shall ye not bring near, —for it shall not be accepted for you.
21 如有人為還願，或出於自願，給上主奉獻牛羊作和平祭品，應是無暇的，方蒙悅納；身上不應有任何殘疾。
And, whosoever would bring near a peace-offering unto Yahweh, to consecrate a vow or as a freewill-offering with a bullock or a sheep, without defect, shall it be, to be accepted, no, blemish, shall be therein.
22 眼瞎的或殘廢的，或斷肢的，或患潰瘍的，或生痲疹的，或長癬疥的：這樣的牲畜，你們不可獻給上主；任何這樣的牲畜，不可放在祭壇上，獻給上主作火祭。
Blind, or broken, or rent, or having a running sore, or scurvy, or scab, ye shall not bring these near unto Yahweh, —and no, altar-flame, shall ye present therefrom upon the altar, unto Yahweh.
23 一腿太長或太短的牛或羊，你可現為自願祭祭品；但為還願，必不被悅納。
Whether an ox or a lamb long or short limb, as a free-will offering, thou mayest offer it, but, for a vow, it shall not be accepted.
24 此外，凡睪丸傷壞，砸碎，破裂，割去的牲畜，你們不可獻給上主；在你們的地域內，萬不可舉行這樣的祭獻，
But that which is bruised in the stones or broken therein, or torn or cut, shall ye neither bring ear unto Yahweh, nor on your own land, shall ye offer.
25 也不可由外邦人手內接受這樣的牲畜，獻給你們的天主作供物，因為身上殘廢的，有缺陷的，為你們不會獲得悅納。」
Even at the hand of the son of a stranger, shall ye not bring near the food of your God of any of these, —for, their damage is in them, a blemish, is in them, they shall not be accepted for you.
26 上主訓示梅瑟說：
And Yahweh spake unto Moses, saying: —
27 「幾時牛或綿羊或山羊一生下，應七天同其母在一起；自第八天，作為上主的火祭祭品，方蒙悅納。
When, a beeve or a sheep or a goat, is brought forth, then shall it be seven days under its dam, —and, from the eighth day and onwards, it shall be accepted as an oblation of an altar-flame unto Yahweh,
28 牛羊及其幼雛，不可在同一日內宰殺。
Whether cow or ewe—it and its young, shall ye not slaughter on one day.
29 幾時你們給上主奉獻感恩祭，應這樣奉獻，才獲得悅納：
And when ye would offer a sacrifice of thanksgiving unto Yahweh, for your acceptance, shall ye offer it.
30 祭肉，應在當天吃完，不應留到次日早晨：我是上主。
On the same day, shall it be eaten, ye shall not leave thereof until morning, —I, am Yahweh.
31 你們應遵守我的命令，一一依照執行：我是上主。
So then ye shall observe my commandments, and do them, —I, am Yahweh.
32 不要褻瀆我的聖名，叫我在以色列子民中常被尊為聖；我是使你們成聖的上主，
So shall ye not profane my holy name, So shall I be hallowed in the midst of the sons of Israel, —I, am Yahweh, who am hallowing you;
33 是我由埃及地領你們出來，為作為你們的天主：我是上主。」
Who brought you forth out of the land of Egypt, that I might become your God, —I, am Yahweh.
