利未記 16
1 亞倫的兩個兒子近到耶和華面前死了。死了之後，耶和華曉諭摩西說：
Now the LORD spoke to Moses after the death of two of Aaron’s sons when they approached the presence of the LORD.
2 「要告訴你哥哥亞倫，不可隨時進聖所的幔子內、到櫃上的施恩座前，免得他死亡，因為我要從雲中顯現在施恩座上。
And the LORD said to Moses: “Tell your brother Aaron not to enter freely into the Most Holy Place behind the veil in front of the mercy seat on the ark, or else he will die, because I appear in the cloud above the mercy seat.
3 亞倫進聖所，要帶一隻公牛犢為贖罪祭，一隻公綿羊為燔祭。
This is how Aaron is to enter the Holy Place: with a young bull for a sin offering and a ram for a burnt offering.
4 要穿上細麻布聖內袍，把細麻布褲子穿在身上，腰束細麻布帶子，頭戴細麻布冠冕；這都是聖服。他要用水洗身，然後穿戴。
He is to wear the sacred linen tunic, with linen undergarments. He must tie a linen sash around him and put on the linen turban. These are holy garments, and he must bathe himself with water before he wears them.
5 要從以色列會眾取兩隻公山羊為贖罪祭，一隻公綿羊為燔祭。
And he shall take from the congregation of Israel two male goats for a sin offering and one ram for a burnt offering.
6 「亞倫要把贖罪祭的公牛奉上，為自己和本家贖罪；
Aaron is to present the bull for his sin offering and make atonement for himself and his household.
7 也要把兩隻公山羊安置在會幕門口、耶和華面前，
Then he shall take the two goats and present them before the LORD at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.
8 為那兩隻羊拈鬮，一鬮歸與耶和華，一鬮歸與阿撒瀉勒。
After Aaron casts lots for the two goats, one for the LORD and the other for the scapegoat,
9 亞倫要把那拈鬮歸與耶和華的羊獻為贖罪祭，
he shall present the goat chosen by lot for the LORD and sacrifice it as a sin offering.
10 但那拈鬮歸與阿撒瀉勒的羊要活着安置在耶和華面前，用以贖罪，打發人送到曠野去，歸與阿撒瀉勒。
But the goat chosen by lot as the scapegoat shall be presented alive before the LORD to make atonement by sending it into the wilderness as the scapegoat.
11 「亞倫要把贖罪祭的公牛牽來宰了，為自己和本家贖罪；
When Aaron presents the bull for his sin offering and makes atonement for himself and his household, he is to slaughter the bull for his own sin offering.
12 拿香爐，從耶和華面前的壇上盛滿火炭，又拿一捧搗細的香料，都帶入幔子內，
Then he must take a censer full of burning coals from the altar before the LORD, and two handfuls of finely ground fragrant incense, and take them inside the veil.
13 在耶和華面前，把香放在火上，使香的煙雲遮掩法櫃上的施恩座，免得他死亡；
He is to put the incense on the fire before the LORD, and the cloud of incense will cover the mercy seat above the Testimony, so that he will not die.
14 也要取些公牛的血，用指頭彈在施恩座的東面，又在施恩座的前面彈血七次。
And he is to take some of the bull’s blood and sprinkle it with his finger on the east side of the mercy seat; then he shall sprinkle some of it with his finger seven times before the mercy seat.
15 「隨後他要宰那為百姓作贖罪祭的公山羊，把羊的血帶入幔子內，彈在施恩座的上面和前面，好像彈公牛的血一樣。
Aaron shall then slaughter the goat for the sin offering for the people and bring its blood behind the veil, and with its blood he must do as he did with the bull’s blood: He is to sprinkle it against the mercy seat and in front of it.
16 他因以色列人諸般的污穢、過犯，就是他們一切的罪愆，當這樣在聖所行贖罪之禮，並因會幕在他們污穢之中，也要照樣而行。
So he shall make atonement for the Most Holy Place because of the impurities and rebellious acts of the Israelites in regard to all their sins. He is to do the same for the Tent of Meeting which abides among them, because it is surrounded by their impurities.
17 他進聖所贖罪的時候，會幕裏不可有人，直等到他為自己和本家並以色列全會眾贖了罪出來。
No one may be in the Tent of Meeting from the time Aaron goes in to make atonement in the Most Holy Place until he leaves, after he has made atonement for himself, his household, and the whole assembly of Israel.
18 他出來，要到耶和華面前的壇那裏，在壇上行贖罪之禮，又要取些公牛的血和公山羊的血，抹在壇上四角的周圍；
Then he shall go out to the altar that is before the LORD and make atonement for it. He is to take some of the bull’s blood and some of the goat’s blood and put it on all the horns of the altar.
19 也要用指頭把血彈在壇上七次，潔淨了壇，從壇上除掉以色列人諸般的污穢，使壇成聖。」
He is to sprinkle some of the blood on it with his finger seven times to cleanse it and consecrate it from the uncleanness of the Israelites.
20 「亞倫為聖所和會幕並壇獻完了贖罪祭，就要把那隻活着的公山羊奉上。
When Aaron has finished purifying the Most Holy Place, the Tent of Meeting, and the altar, he is to bring forward the live goat.
21 兩手按在羊頭上，承認以色列人諸般的罪孽過犯，就是他們一切的罪愆，把這罪都歸在羊的頭上，藉着所派之人的手，送到曠野去。
Then he is to lay both hands on the head of the live goat and confess over it all the iniquities and rebellious acts of the Israelites in regard to all their sins. He is to put them on the goat’s head and send it away into the wilderness by the hand of a man appointed for the task.
22 要把這羊放在曠野，這羊要擔當他們一切的罪孽，帶到無人之地。
The goat will carry on itself all their iniquities into a solitary place, and the man will release it into the wilderness.
23 「亞倫要進會幕，把他進聖所時所穿的細麻布衣服脫下，放在那裏，
Then Aaron is to enter the Tent of Meeting, take off the linen garments he put on before entering the Most Holy Place, and leave them there.
24 又要在聖處用水洗身，穿上衣服，出來，把自己的燔祭和百姓的燔祭獻上，為自己和百姓贖罪。
He is to bathe himself with water in a holy place and put on his own clothes. Then he must go out and sacrifice his burnt offering and the people’s burnt offering to make atonement for himself and for the people.
25 贖罪祭牲的脂油要在壇上焚燒。
He is also to burn the fat of the sin offering on the altar.
26 那放羊歸與阿撒瀉勒的人要洗衣服，用水洗身，然後進營。
The man who released the goat as the scapegoat must wash his clothes and bathe himself with water; afterward he may reenter the camp.
27 作贖罪祭的公牛和公山羊的血既帶入聖所贖罪，這牛羊就要搬到營外，將皮、肉、糞用火焚燒。
The bull for the sin offering and the goat for the sin offering, whose blood was brought into the Most Holy Place to make atonement, must be taken outside the camp; and their hides, flesh, and dung must be burned up.
28 焚燒的人要洗衣服，用水洗身，然後進營。」
The one who burns them must wash his clothes and bathe himself with water, and afterward he may reenter the camp.
29 「每逢七月初十日，你們要刻苦己心，無論是本地人，是寄居在你們中間的外人，甚麼工都不可做；這要作你們永遠的定例。
This is to be a permanent statute for you: On the tenth day of the seventh month, you shall humble yourselves and not do any work—whether the native or the foreigner who resides among you—
30 因在這日要為你們贖罪，使你們潔淨。你們要在耶和華面前得以潔淨，脫盡一切的罪愆。
because on this day atonement will be made for you to cleanse you, and you will be clean from all your sins before the LORD.
31 這日你們要守為聖安息日，要刻苦己心；這為永遠的定例。
It is a Sabbath of complete rest for you, that you may humble yourselves; it is a permanent statute.
32 那受膏、接續他父親承接聖職的祭司要穿上細麻布的聖衣，行贖罪之禮。
The priest who is anointed and ordained to succeed his father as high priest shall make atonement. He will put on the sacred linen garments
33 他要在至聖所和會幕與壇行贖罪之禮，並要為眾祭司和會眾的百姓贖罪。
and make atonement for the Most Holy Place, the Tent of Meeting, and the altar, and for the priests and all the people of the assembly.
34 這要作你們永遠的定例－就是因以色列人一切的罪，要一年一次為他們贖罪。」 於是，亞倫照耶和華所吩咐摩西的行了。
This is to be a permanent statute for you, to make atonement once a year for the Israelites because of all their sins.” And all this was done as the LORD had commanded Moses.
