利未記 4
1 上主訓示梅瑟說：
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
2 你告訴以色列子民說：若有人不慎，誤犯了上主的禁令，做了一件不許做的事：為大司祭贖罪，
Say to the sons of Israel: The soul which will have sinned through ignorance, and concerning any of the commandments of the Lord that he instructed not to be done, if anything at all has been done:
3 如果是一位受傅的司祭犯了罪，連累了人民，他為這罪，應獻一頭無瑕的公牛贖，作贖罪祭。
if the priest, who is anointed, will have sinned, causing the people to commit a transgression, he shall offer to the Lord for his sin an immaculate calf.
4 將牛牽到會幕門口，到上主前，先按手在牛頭上，在上主前宰了。
And he shall lead it to the door of the tabernacle of the testimony in the sight of the Lord. And he shall place his hand upon its head, and he shall immolate it to the Lord.
5 然後受傅的司祭取些牛血，帶進會幕，
Likewise, he shall take from the blood of the calf, carrying it into the tabernacle of the testimony,
6 將手指浸在牲血裏，在上主面前向聖所帳幔灑血七次；
and having dipped his finger into the blood, he shall sprinkle it seven times in the sight of the Lord, opposite the veil of the Sanctuary.
7 再將一些牲血，塗在會幕內上主面前的香壇四角上；其餘的牛血都應倒在會幕門口全幡祭壇腳旁。
And he shall place some of the same blood over the horns of the altar of most pleasing incense to the Lord, which is in the tabernacle of the testimony. Then he shall pour out the remainder of the blood at the base of the altar of holocaust at the entrance of the tabernacle.
8 以後取出作贖罪的公牛贖所有的脂肪：即遮蓋內臟的脂肪，貼再內臟上所有的脂肪，
And, on behalf of the sin, he shall take the fat of the calf, both that which covers the vital organs and all that is interior,
9 左右兩腎和兩腎上靠腰部的脂肪以及同兩腎一起取出的肝葉，
the two little kidneys, and the mesh that is on them near the sides, and the fat of the liver with the little kidneys,
10 全照從和平祭犧牲的公牛所取出的一樣；司祭應將這一切放在全幡祭上焚燒。
just as it is taken from the calf of the sacrifice of peace offerings. And he shall burn them upon the altar of holocaust.
11 至於公牛贖的皮，所有的肉、頭、腿、內臟和糞，
Yet truly, the skin and all the flesh, with the head and the feet, and the intestines and the dung,
12 即整個公牛贖，應運到營外倒壇灰的清潔地方，放再木柴上用火焚燒：即在倒壇灰的地方將牠燃燒。為全會眾贖罪。
and the remainder of the body, he shall carry away, beyond the camp, to the clean place where the ashes are usually poured out. And he shall burn them upon a stack of wood. There, in the place where the ashes have been poured out, they will be burned.
13 如果是全以色列會眾誤犯了過失，而會眾又沒有發覺做了上主戒命所不許做的事，因而有罪。
But if all the crowd of Israel will have been ignorant, and through inexperience will have done what is contrary to the commandment of the Lord,
14 當他們一發覺自己所犯的罪，會眾就應獻一頭公牛犢作贖罪祭，牽到會幕前；
and afterwards shall understand their sin: they shall offer a calf on behalf of their sin, and they shall lead it to the door of the tabernacle.
15 會眾的長老在上主前，按手在牛頭上，在上主前宰；
And the elders of the people shall place their hands upon its head in the sight of the Lord. And when the calf has been immolated in the sight of the Lord,
16 然後受傅的司祭取些牛血帶進會幕，
the priest who is anointed shall carry some of its blood into the tabernacle of the testimony.
17 將手指浸在牲血裏，在上主面前向帳幔灑血七次。
and he shall dip his finger in it, sprinkling it seven times opposite the veil.
18 再將一些牲血塗在會幕內上主面前的祭壇四角上；其餘的血，都應倒在會幕門口的全燔祭壇腳旁。
And he shall place some of the same blood on the horns of the altar, which is in the presence of the Lord in the tabernacle of the testimony. But the remainder of the blood he shall pour out at the base of the altar of holocaust, which is at the door of the tabernacle of the testimony.
19 至於脂肪應完全取出，放在祭壇上焚燒。
And he shall take all its fat and burn it upon the altar,
20 處置這牛，如處置贖罪祭的公牛犢一樣處置。司祭如此為他們贖了罪，他們方可獲得罪赦。
doing so with this calf in the same manner as he did before. And while the priest is praying for them, the Lord will forgive them.
21 以後應將這公牛犢運到營外焚燒，如焚燒上述的公牛犢一樣：這是為會眾的贖罪祭。為首長贖罪。
But the calf itself he shall carry away, beyond the camp, and he shall also burn it, just as with the previous calf, because it is for the sin of the multitude.
22 如果是一位首長犯了罪，不慎做了上主他的天主的誡命所不許做的事，因而有罪。
If a leader will have sinned, and through ignorance will have done one of the many things which the law of the Lord prohibits,
23 當他一發覺自己犯了罪，就奉獻一隻無瑕的公山羊做祭品，
and afterwards he shall understand his sin: he shall offer an immaculate he-goat from among the goats, as a sacrifice to the Lord.
24 先按手在羊頭上，後在宰殺全燔祭犧牲的地方，在上主前將牠宰了：這是贖罪祭。
And he shall place his hand upon its head. And when he will have immolated it, in the place where the holocaust is usually slain, in the sight of the Lord, because it is for sin,
25 然後司祭用手指蘸些贖罪祭犧牲的血，塗在全燔祭祭壇四角上；其餘的血，都應倒在會幕門口的全燔祭壇腳旁。
the priest shall dip his finger in the blood of the victim for sin, touching the horns of the altar of holocaust, and pouring out the remainder at its base.
26 所有的脂肪，如同和平祭犧牲的脂肪一樣，都應放在祭壇上焚燒。司祭如此為他的罪行了贖罪禮，他方可穫得罪赦。為平民贖罪
Yet truly, the fat he shall burn upon it, just as is usually done with the victims of peace offerings. And the priest shall pray for him and for his sin, and he shall be released from it.
27 如果是一個平民不慎犯了罪，做了上主的誡命所不許做的事，因而有罪。
But if a soul from the people of the land will have sinned through ignorance, so as to have done any of those things that the law of the Lord prohibits, and so commit a transgression,
28 當他一發覺自己犯了罪，就應為自己所犯的罪，奉獻一隻無瑕的母山羊作祭品；
and he shall realize his sin: he shall offer an immaculate she-goat.
29 先按手在贖罪祭犧牲的頭上，後在宰殺全燔祭犧牲的地方，將贖罪祭犧牲宰了。
And he shall place his hand upon the head of the victim which is for sin. And he shall immolate it in the place of the holocaust.
30 然後司祭用手蘸些牲血，塗在全燔祭壇四角上；其餘的血，都應倒在祭壇腳旁。
And the priest shall take some of the blood with his finger, and touching the horns of the altar of holocaust, he shall pour out the remainder at its base.
31 所有的脂肪像和平祭犧牲一樣，都應取出；司祭應將這一切放在祭台上焚燒，化為中悅上主的馨香。司祭如此為他贖了罪，他方可獲得罪赦。
But taking away all the fat, just as it is usually taken away from the victims of peace offerings, he shall burn it upon the altar as a sweet odor to the Lord. And he shall pray for him, and he shall be released from it.
32 如果是奉獻一隻小綿羊做為贖罪祭犧牲，應獻一隻無瑕的母羊。
But if instead he will offer from the flock a victim for his sin, specifically, an immaculate female sheep:
33 先按手在贖罪祭犧牲的頭上，後在宰殺全燔祭犧牲的地方宰了，作為贖罪祭。
he shall place his hand upon its head, and he shall immolate it in the place where the victims of holocausts are usually slain.
34 司祭用手指蘸些贖罪祭犧牲的血，塗在全燔祭壇四角上；其餘的血，都應倒在祭壇腳旁。
And the priest shall take some of its blood with his finger, and touching the horns of the altar of holocaust, he shall pour out the remainder at its base.
35 所有的脂肪都應取出，有如由和平祭犧牲的小羊所取出的脂肪一樣。司祭應將這一切放在祭壇上，與獻給上主的火祭一同焚燒。司祭如此為他的罪行了贖罪禮，他方可獲得罪赦。
Likewise, all of the fat shall be taken away, just as the fat of the ram, which is immolated for peace offerings, is usually taken away. And he shall burn it upon the altar as an incense of the Lord. And he shall pray for him and for his sin, and he shall be released from it.
