利未記 4
1 上主訓示梅瑟說：
And YHWH speaks 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，
“Speak to the sons of Israel, saying, When a person sins through ignorance against any of the commands of YHWH [regarding things] which are not to be done, and has done [something] against one of these—
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 sins according to the guilt of the people, then he has brought near for his sin which he has sinned a bullock, a son of the herd, a perfect one, to YHWH, for a sin-offering,
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 has brought in the bullock to the opening of the Tent of Meeting before YHWH, and has laid his hand on the head of the bullock, and has slaughtered the bullock before YHWH.
5 然後受傅的司祭取些牛血，帶進會幕，
And the priest who is anointed has taken of the blood of the bullock, and has brought it into the Tent of Meeting,
6 將手指浸在牲血裏，在上主面前向聖所帳幔灑血七次；
and the priest has dipped his finger in the blood, and sprinkled of the blood seven times before YHWH, at the front of the veil of the holy place;
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 the priest has put of the blood on the horns of the altar of spice-incense before YHWH, which [is] in the Tent of Meeting, and he pours out all the blood of the bullock at the foundation of the altar of the burnt-offering, which [is] at the opening of the Tent of Meeting.
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 he lifts up from it all the fat of the bullock of the sin-offering, the fat which is covering over the innards, and all the fat which [is] on the innards,
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，
and the two kidneys, and the fat which [is] on them, which [is] on the flanks, and the redundance on the liver above the kidneys—he turns it aside,
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。
as it is lifted up from the ox of the sacrifice of the peace-offerings; and the priest has made them an incense on the altar of the burnt-offering.
11 至於公牛贖的皮，所有的肉、頭、腿、內臟和糞，
And the skin of the bullock, and all its flesh, with its head, and with its legs, and its innards, and its 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。
he has even brought out the whole bullock to the outside of the camp, to a clean place, to the place of the pouring out of the ashes, and he has burned it on the wood with fire; it is burned beside the place of the pouring out of the ashes.
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。
And if all the congregation of Israel errs ignorantly, and the thing has been hidden from the eyes of the assembly, and they have done [something against] one of all the commands of YHWH [regarding things] which are not to be done, and have been guilty;
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；
when the sin which they have sinned concerning it has been known, then the assembly has brought a bullock near, a son of the herd, for a sin-offering, and they have brought it in before the Tent of Meeting;
15 會眾的長老在上主前，按手在牛頭上，在上主前宰；
and the elderly of the congregation have laid their hands on the head of the bullock, before YHWH, and [one] has slaughtered the bullock before YHWH.
16 然後受傅的司祭取些牛血帶進會幕，
And the priest who is anointed has brought in of the blood of the bullock to the Tent of Meeting,
17 將手指浸在牲血裏，在上主面前向帳幔灑血七次。
and the priest has dipped his finger in the blood, and has sprinkled seven times before YHWH at the front of 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 puts [some] of the blood on the horns of the altar which [is] before YHWH, which [is] in the Tent of Meeting; and he pours out all the blood at the foundation of the altar of the burnt-offering, which [is] at the opening of the Tent of Meeting;
19 至於脂肪應完全取出，放在祭壇上焚燒。
and he lifts up all its fat from it, and has made incense on 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。
And he has done to the bullock as he has done to the bullock of the sin-offering, so he does to it; and the priest has made atonement for them, and it has been forgiven 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。
and he has brought out the bullock to the outside of the camp, and has burned it as he has burned the first bullock; it [is] a sin-offering of the assembly.
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。
When a prince sins, and has done [something against] one of all the commands of his God YHWH [regarding things] which are not to be done, through ignorance, and has been guilty,
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，
or his sin wherein he has sinned has been made known to him, then he has brought in his offering, a kid of the goats, a male, a perfect one,
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 has laid his hand on the head of the goat, and has slaughtered it in the place where he slaughters the burnt-offering before YHWH; it [is] a sin-offering.
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。
And the priest has taken of the blood of the sin-offering with his finger, and has put [it] on the horns of the altar of the burnt-offering, and he pours out its blood at the foundation of the altar of the burnt-offering,
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
and he makes incense on the altar with all its fat, as the fat of the sacrifice of the peace-offerings; and the priest has made atonement for him because of his sin, and it has been forgiven him.
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。
And if any person of the people of the land sins through ignorance, by his doing [something against] one of the commands of YHWH [regarding things] which are not to be done, and has been guilty,
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；
or his sin which he has sinned has been made known to him, then he has brought in his offering, a kid of the goats, a perfect one, a female, for his sin which he has sinned,
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 has laid his hand on the head of the sin-offering, and has slaughtered the sin-offering in the place of the burnt-offering.
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 has taken of its blood with his finger, and has put [it] on the horns of the altar of the burnt-offering, and he pours out all its blood at the foundation of the altar,
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。
and he turns aside all its fat, as the fat has been turned aside from off the sacrifice of the peace-offerings, and the priest has made incense on the altar for refreshing fragrance to YHWH; and the priest has made atonement for him, and it has been forgiven him.
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。
And if he brings in a sheep [for] his offering, a female for a sin-offering, he brings in a perfect one,
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。
and he has laid his hand on the head of the sin-offering, and has slaughtered it for a sin-offering in the place where he slaughters the burnt-offering.
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 has taken of the blood of the sin-offering with his finger, and has put [it] on the horns of the altar of the burnt-offering, and he pours out all its blood at the foundation of the altar,
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。
and he turns aside all its fat, as the fat of the sheep is turned aside from the sacrifice of the peace-offerings, and the priest has made them an incense on the altar, according to the fire-offerings of YHWH, and the priest has made atonement for him, for his sin which he has sinned, and it has been forgiven him.”
