< 利未記 1 >

1 上主叫了梅瑟來,由會幕中訓示他說:
And the Lord called unto Moses, and spoke unto him out of the tabernacle of the congregation, 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 unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, If any one of you wish to bring an offering unto the Lord: of the cattle, either of the herds, or of the flocks, shall ye bring your offering.
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 his offering be a burnt-sacrifice of the herds, then shall he offer a male without blemish: unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation shall he bring it, that it may be favorably received for him 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。
And he shall lay his hand upon the head of the burnt-offering; and it shall be accepted for him 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 kill the young steer before the Lord: and the sons of Aaron the priests shall bring near the blood, and they shall sprinkle the blood round about upon the altar that is by the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
6 奉獻者剝去祭牲的皮,將犧牲切成塊。
And he shall flay the burnt-offering, and cut it into its pieces.
7 亞郎的兒子司祭們先將火放在祭壇上,火上擺上木柴;
And the sons of Aaron the priest shall put fire upon the altar, and lay the wood in order upon 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。
And the sons of Aaron the priests shall lay in order the parts, the head, and the fat, upon the wood that is on the fire which is upon 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。
But its inwards and its legs shall he wash in water; and the priest shall burn the whole on the altar, as a burnt-sacrifice, an offering made by fire, of a sweet savor unto 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。
And if his offering be of the flocks, of the sheep, or of the goats, for a burnt-sacrifice: then shall he offer a male without blemish as the same.
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。
And he shall kill it on the side of the altar, northward, before the Lord; and the sons of Aaron the priests shall sprinkle its blood upon the altar round about.
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。
And he shall cut it into its pieces, with its head and its fat; and the priest shall lay them in order on the wood that is on the fire which is upon 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。
But the inwards and the legs shall he wash with water; and the priest shall bring near the whole, and burn it upon the altar; it is a burnt-sacrifice, an offering made by fire, of a sweet savor unto 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。
And if of fowls be the burnt-sacrifice for his offering to the Lord: then shall he bring his offering of turtle-doves, or of young pigeons.
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,
And the priest shall bring it near unto the altar, and pinch off its head, and burn it on the altar; and the blood thereof shall be wrung out on the wall 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 shall remove its crop with its feathers, and cast it beside the altar on the east part, at the place of the 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。
And he shall cleave it by its wings, but shall not divide it asunder; and the priest shall burn it upon the altar, upon the wood that is on the fire: it is a burnt-sacrifice, an offering made by fire, of a sweet savor unto the Lord.
