< 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:
The LORD spoke to Moses, after the death of the two sons of Aaron, when they drew near before the LORD, and died;
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 Aaron your brother, not to come at all times into the Most Holy Place within the veil, before the mercy seat which is on the ark; lest he die: for I will appear in the cloud on 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。
"Herewith shall Aaron come into the sanctuary: 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 shall put on the holy linen coat, and he shall have the linen breeches on his body, and shall put on the linen sash, and he shall be dressed with the linen turban. They are the holy garments. He shall bathe his body in water, and put them on.
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。
He shall take from the congregation of the children 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 shall offer the bull of the sin offering, which is for himself, and make atonement for himself and for his house.
He shall take the two goats, and set them before the LORD at the door of 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。
Aaron shall cast lots for the two goats; one lot for the LORD, and the other lot for the scapegoat.
Aaron shall present the goat on which the lot fell for the LORD, and offer him for 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, on which the lot fell for the scapegoat, shall be presented alive before the LORD, to make atonement for him, to send him away for the scapegoat into the wilderness.
11 「亞倫要把贖罪祭的公牛牽來宰了,為自己和本家贖罪;
"Aaron shall present the bull of the sin offering, which is for himself, and shall make atonement for himself and for his house, and shall kill the bull of the sin offering which is for himself.
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,
He shall take a censer full of coals of fire from off the altar before the LORD, and two handfuls of sweet incense beaten small, and bring it within 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;
and he shall put the incense on the fire before the LORD, that the cloud of the incense may cover the mercy seat that is on 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。
He shall take some of the blood of the bull, and sprinkle it with his finger on the mercy seat on the east; and before the mercy seat he shall sprinkle some of the blood with his finger seven times.
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。
"Then he shall kill the goat of the sin offering, that is for the people, and bring his blood within the veil, and do with his blood as he did with the blood of the bull, and sprinkle it on the mercy seat, and before the mercy seat:
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。
and he shall make atonement for the Holy Place, because of the uncleanness of the children of Israel, and because of their transgressions, even all their sins; and so he shall do for the Tent of Meeting, that dwells with them in the midst of their uncleanness.
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。
There shall be no one in the Tent of Meeting when he enters to make atonement in the Holy Place, until he comes out, and has made atonement for himself and for his household, and for all the 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;
"He shall go out to the altar that is before the LORD and make atonement for it, and shall take some of the bull's blood, and some of the goat's blood, and put it around on 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 shall sprinkle some of the blood on it with his finger seven times, and cleanse it, and make it holy from the uncleanness of the children of Israel.
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 he has made an end of atoning for the Holy Place, the Tent of Meeting, and the altar, he shall present 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。
Aaron shall lay both his hands on the head of the live goat, and confess over him all the iniquities of the children of Israel, and all their transgressions, even all their sins; and he shall put them on the head of the goat, and shall send him away into the wilderness by the hand of a man who is in readiness.
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 shall carry all their iniquities on himself to a solitary land, and he shall let the goat go in 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,
"Aaron shall come into the Tent of Meeting, and shall take off the linen garments, which he put on when he went into the Holy Place, and shall 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。
Then he shall bathe himself in water in a holy place, and put on his garments, and come out and offer his burnt offering and the burnt offering of the people, and make atonement for himself and for the people.
The fat of the sin offering he shall burn 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。
"He who lets the goat go for the scapegoat shall wash his clothes, and bathe his flesh in water, and afterward he shall come into 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 in to make atonement in the Holy Place, shall be carried forth outside the camp; and they shall burn their skins, their flesh, and their dung with fire.
He who burns them shall wash his clothes, and bathe his flesh in water, and afterward he shall come into 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。
"It shall be a statute to you forever: in the seventh month, on the tenth day of the month, you shall humble your souls, and shall do no manner of work, both the native and the foreigner who sojourns in your midst:
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。
for on this day shall atonement be made for you, to cleanse you; from all your sins you shall be clean 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 solemn rest to you, and you shall afflict your souls; it is a statute forever.
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 who is consecrated to be priest in his father's place, shall make the atonement, and shall put on the linen garments, even the holy 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。
Then he shall make atonement for the Holy Sanctuary; and he shall make atonement for the Tent of Meeting and for the altar; and he shall make atonement for the priests and for 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 shall be an everlasting statute for you, to make atonement for the children of Israel once in the year because of all their sins." It was done as the LORD commanded Moses.
