利未记 21
1 耶和华对摩西说：“你告诉亚伦子孙作祭司的说：祭司不可为民中的死人沾染自己，
And the Lord said to Moses, Say to the priests, the sons of Aaron, Let no man make himself unclean for the dead among his people;
2 除非为他骨肉之亲的父母、儿女、弟兄，
But only for his near relations, for his mother or his father, his son or his daughter, and his brother;
3 和未曾出嫁、作处女的姊妹，才可以沾染自己。
And for his sister, a virgin, for she is his near relation and has had no husband, he may make himself unclean.
4 祭司既在民中为首，就不可从俗沾染自己。
But let him, being a chief among his people, not make himself unclean in such a way as to put shame on himself.
5 不可使头光秃；不可剃除胡须的周围，也不可用刀划身。
They are not to have their hair cut off for the dead, or the hair on their chins cut short, or make cuts in their flesh.
6 要归 神为圣，不可亵渎 神的名；因为耶和华的火祭，就是 神的食物，是他们献的，所以他们要成为圣。
Let them be holy to their God and not make the name of their God common; for the fire offerings of the Lord and the bread of their God are offered by them, and they are to be holy.
7 不可娶妓女或被污的女人为妻，也不可娶被休的妇人为妻，因为祭司是归 神为圣。
They may not take as wife a loose or common woman, or one who has been put away by her husband: for the priest is holy to his God.
8 所以你要使他成圣，因为他奉献你 神的食物；你要以他为圣，因为我—使你们成圣的耶和华—是圣的。
And he is to be holy in your eyes, for by him the bread of your God is offered; he is to be holy in your eyes, for I the Lord, who make you holy, am holy.
9 祭司的女儿若行淫辱没自己，就辱没了父亲，必用火将她焚烧。
And if the daughter of a priest makes herself common and by her loose behaviour puts shame on her father, let her be burned with fire.
10 “在弟兄中作大祭司、头上倒了膏油、又承接圣职、穿了圣衣的，不可蓬头散发，也不可撕裂衣服。
And he who is the chief priest among his brothers, on whose head the holy oil has been put, who is marked out to put on the holy robes, may not let his hair go loose or have his clothing out of order as a sign of sorrow.
11 不可挨近死尸，也不可为父母沾染自己。
He may not go near any dead body or make himself unclean for his father or his mother;
12 不可出圣所，也不可亵渎 神的圣所，因为 神膏油的冠冕在他头上。我是耶和华。
He may not go out of the holy place or make the holy place of his God common; for the crown of the holy oil of his God is on him: I am the Lord.
13 他要娶处女为妻。
And let him take as his wife one who has not had relations with a man.
14 寡妇或是被休的妇人，或是被污为妓的女人，都不可娶；只可娶本民中的处女为妻。
A widow, or one whose husband has put her away, or a common woman of loose behaviour, may not be the wife of a priest; but let him take a virgin from among his people.
15 不可在民中辱没他的儿女，因为我是叫他成圣的耶和华。”
And he may not make his seed unclean among his people, for I the Lord have made him holy.
16 耶和华对摩西说：
And the Lord said to Moses,
17 “你告诉亚伦说：你世世代代的后裔，凡有残疾的，都不可近前来献他 神的食物。
Say to Aaron, If a man of your family, in any generation, is damaged in body, let him not come near to make the offering of the bread of his God.
18 因为凡有残疾的，无论是瞎眼的、瘸腿的、塌鼻子的、肢体有余的、
For any man whose body is damaged may not come near: one who is blind, or has not the use of his legs, or one who has a broken nose or any unnatural growth,
19 折脚折手的、
Or a man with broken feet or hands,
20 驼背的、矮矬的、眼睛有毛病的、长癣的、长疥的，或是损坏肾子的，都不可近前来。
Or one whose back is bent, or one who is unnaturally small, or one who has a damaged eye, or whose skin is diseased, or whose sex parts are damaged;
21 祭司亚伦的后裔，凡有残疾的，都不可近前来，将火祭献给耶和华。他有残疾，不可近前来献 神的食物。
No man of the offspring of Aaron whose body is damaged in any way may come near to give the fire offerings of the Lord: he is damaged, he may not come near to make the offerings.
22 神的食物，无论是圣的，至圣的，他都可以吃。
He may take of the bread of God, the holy and the most holy;
23 但不可进到幔子前，也不可就近坛前；因为他有残疾，免得亵渎我的圣所。我是叫他成圣的耶和华。”
But he may not go inside the veil or come near the altar, because he is damaged; and he may not make my holy places common; for I the Lord have made them holy.
24 于是，摩西晓谕亚伦和亚伦的子孙，并以色列众人。
These are the words which Moses said to Aaron and to his sons and to all the children of Israel.
