< 利未記 9 >
1 到了第八天,梅瑟召集亞郎和他的兒子以及以色列的長老,
And it came to pass on the eighth day that Moses called Aaron and his sons, and the elders of Israel;
2 然後對亞郎說:「你牽一條公牛贖來,作為贖罪祭,一隻公綿羊來,作為全燔祭,都應是無瑕的,牽到上主前。」
And he said unto Aaron, Take unto thyself a young calf for a sin-offering, and a ram for a burnt-offering, without blemish, and bring them near before the Lord.
3 又吩附以色列子民說:「你們應牽一隻公山羊來,作為贖罪祭;一頭公牛贖和一隻一歲的公羔羊來,都應是無瑕的,作為全燔祭;
And unto the children of Israel shalt thou speak, saying, Take ye a he-goat for a sin-offering; and a calf and a sheep, both of the first year, without blemish, for a burnt-offering;
4 再牽一頭公牛和一隻公綿羊來,作為和平祭,獻在上主面前;再帶些油調的素祭祭品來,因為今天上主要顯現給你們。」
Also a bullock and a ram for peace-offerings, to sacrifice before the Lord, and a meat-offering mingled with oil; for this day the Lord will appear unto you.
5 他們遂將梅瑟所吩附的,都帶到會幕前;全會眾都前來,站在上主面前。
And they brought that which Moses had commanded before the tabernacle of the congregation: and all the congregation drew near and stood before the Lord.
6 梅瑟遂說:「這是上主命你們做的事,好使上主的榮耀顯現給你們。」
And Moses said, This thing which the Lord hath commanded shall ye do: and then will the glory of the Lord appear unto you.
7 以後,梅瑟對亞郎說:「你走近祭壇,奉獻你的贖罪祭和全燔祭,為你自己和你的家族贖罪;然後奉獻人民的祭品,為他們贖罪,如上主所吩附的。」
And Moses said unto Aaron, Draw near unto the altar, and prepare thy sin-offering, and thy burnt-offering, and make an atonement for thyself, and for the people; and prepare the offering of the people, and make an atonement for them; as the Lord hath commanded.
8 亞郎於是走近祭壇,宰殺了那為自己作贖祭的公牛贖。
And Aaron drew near unto the altar; and he slew the calf of the sin-offering, which was for himself.
9 亞郎的兒子將血遞給他,他把手指浸在血裏,抹在祭壇的四角上,剩下的血都倒在祭壇腳旁。
And the sons of Aaron brought the blood unto him; and he dipped his finger in the blood, and put it upon the horns of the altar; and the [remaining] blood he poured out at the bottom of the altar.
10 贖罪祭犧牲的脂肪、兩腎和肝葉,都放在祭壇上焚燒,照上主對梅瑟的吩附。
And the fat, and the kidneys, and the midriff from the liver of the sin-offering, he burnt upon the altar; as the Lord had commanded Moses.
And the flesh and the hide he burnt with fire without the camp.
12 然後亞郎宰殺了全燔祭犧牲,亞郎的兒子將血遞給他,他將血灑在祭壇四週。
And he slew the burnt-offering; and the sons of Aaron presented unto him the blood, and he sprinkled it upon the altar round about.
13 以後,他們將切成塊的全燔祭犧牲和頭遞給他,他就放在祭壇上焚燒。
And the burnt-offering they presented unto him, in its proper pieces, together with the head: and he burnt them upon the altar.
14 內臟和腿洗淨後,也放在祭壇上同全燔祭犧牲一起焚燒。
And he washed the inwards and the legs; and he burnt them upon the burnt-offering on the altar.
15 隨後他奉獻了人民的祭品:將那為贖罪祭的公山羊牽來,宰殺了,獻作贖罪祭,如前一犧牲一樣。
And he brought near the people's offering; and he took the goat of the sin-offering which belonged to the people, and slew it, and made atonement with its blood, as the first.
And he brought near the burnt-offering, and offered it according to the prescribed manner.
17 又奉獻了素祭,由其中取了一滿把,放在祭壇上焚燒,這是早晨全燔祭以外的祭獻。
And he brought near the meat-offering, and he filled his hand thereof, and burnt it upon the altar, beside the burnt-sacrifice of the morning.
18 最後,他宰殺了為人民作和平祭的公牛和公綿羊;亞郎的兒子將血遞給他,他就將血灑在祭壇四週。
He slew also the bullock and the ram, the sacrifice of peace-offering which belonged to the people: and the sons of Aaron presented unto him the blood, and he sprinkled it upon the altar round about,
19 至於牛羊的脂肪、肥尾、遮蓋內臟的脂肪、兩腎和肝葉,
Also the fat of the bullock, and of the ram, the rump, and that which covereth the inwards, and the kidneys, and the midriff of the liver;
20 他們都放在犧牲的胸脯上;亞郎遂將脂肪放在祭壇上焚燒,
And they put these pieces of fat upon the breasts, and he burnt the fat upon the altar;
21 胸脯和右後腿,拿來在上主前行了奉獻的搖禮,照梅瑟所吩附的。
And with the breasts and the right shoulder Aaron made a waving before the Lord; as Moses had commanded.
22 以後亞郎的人民舉起手來,祝福了他們。當他獻完了贖罪祭、全燔祭及和平祭以後,就由祭壇上下來了。
And Aaron lifted up his hands toward the people, and blessed them; and came down after he had offered the sin-offering, and the burnt-offering, and peace-offerings.
23 以後,梅瑟和亞郎走進了會幕,兩人出來,祝福百姓時,上主的榮耀顯現給全體百姓。
And Moses and Aaron went into the tabernacle of the congregation, and came then out, and blessed the people: and the glory of the Lord appeared unto all the people.
24 由上主前出來了火,吞噬了祭壇上的全燔祭祭品和脂肪。全體百姓見了,齊聲歡呼,俯伏在地。
And there came forth a fire from before the Lord, and consumed upon the altar the burnt-offering and the fat; and when all the people saw this, they shouted, and fell on their faces.
