利未記 19
1 耶和華對摩西說：
Yahweh also said to Moses/me,
2 「你曉諭以色列全會眾說：你們要聖潔，因為我耶和華－你們的上帝是聖潔的。
“Speak to all the people of Israel and tell them this: You must be holy, because I, Yahweh your God, am holy, [and I want you to be like me].
3 你們各人都當孝敬父母，也要守我的安息日。我是耶和華－你們的上帝。
‘Each of you must respect your father and your mother. And you must (honor/treat respectfully) the Sabbath days. I am Yahweh, your God, [and that is what I am commanding you to do].
4 你們不可偏向虛無的神，也不可為自己鑄造神像。我是耶和華－你們的上帝。
‘Do not worship idols or make metal statues of gods for yourselves. I am Yahweh, your God, [and I am the only one you must worship].
5 你們獻平安祭給耶和華的時候，要獻得可蒙悅納。
‘Then you bring an offering to maintain fellowship with me, offer it in a way that will cause me to accept it.
6 這祭物要在獻的那一天和第二天吃，若有剩到第三天的，就必用火焚燒。
The meat should be eaten on the day that you sacrifice it, but you are permitted to eat some of it on the next day. Anything that remains until the third/next day must be completely burned.
7 第三天若再吃，這就為可憎惡的，必不蒙悅納。
For any of it to be eaten on the third day is very displeasing to me, and I will not accept that offering.
8 凡吃的人必擔當他的罪孽；因為他褻瀆了耶和華的聖物，那人必從民中剪除。
I will punish anyone who eats it [after the second day], because he will not have respected that what I say is holy. And that person must no longer be allowed to associate with my people.
9 「在你們的地收割莊稼，不可割盡田角，也不可拾取所遺落的。
‘Then you harvest your grain, leave the grain at the very edge of the field, and do not pick up the grain that has fallen on the ground.
10 不可摘盡葡萄園的果子，也不可拾取葡萄園所掉的果子；要留給窮人和寄居的。我是耶和華－你們的上帝。
And when you harvest your grapes, do not go back a second time to try to harvest some more, and do not pick up the grapes that have fallen on the ground. Leave those things for the poor people and for foreigners who are living among you. I, Yahweh your God, [am commanding those things].
11 「你們不可偷盜，不可欺騙，也不可彼此說謊。
‘Do not steal anything. ‘Do not tell lies. ‘Do not deceive each other.
12 不可指着我的名起假誓，褻瀆你上帝的名。我是耶和華。
‘Do not show that you do not respect me by using/saying my name to falsely promise that you will do something. [Do not forget that] I am Yahweh, your God.
13 「不可欺壓你的鄰舍，也不可搶奪他的物。雇工人的工價，不可在你那裏過夜，留到早晨。
‘Do not cheat anyone or steal from anyone. [‘If you have agreed to] pay your workers at the end of the day, [do what you have promised]; do not keep those wages until the next day.
14 不可咒罵聾子，也不可將絆腳石放在瞎子面前，只要敬畏你的上帝。我是耶和華。
‘Do not curse deaf people, and do not put things in the path of blind people to cause them to stumble.
15 「你們施行審判，不可行不義；不可偏護窮人，也不可重看有勢力的人，只要按着公義審判你的鄰舍。
‘Always [LIT] judge people fairly [DOU]. Do not do special favors for either poor people or rich people.
16 不可在民中往來搬弄是非，也不可與鄰舍為敵，置之於死。我是耶和華。
‘Do not spread false rumors about other people. ‘Do not say anything [in court] that would result in some [innocent] person being executed. I, Yahweh, [am commanding this].
17 「不可心裏恨你的弟兄；總要指摘你的鄰舍，免得因他擔罪。
‘Do not hate anyone. Instead, honestly rebuke those who ought to be rebuked, in order that you also will not be guilty.
18 不可報仇，也不可埋怨你本國的子民，卻要愛人如己。我是耶和華。
‘Do not try to get revenge against someone or be angry with someone for a long time. Instead, love other people like you love yourself. I, Yahweh your God, [am commanding this].
19 「你們要守我的律例。不可叫你的牲畜與異類配合；不可用兩樣攙雜的種種你的地，也不可用兩樣攙雜的料做衣服穿在身上。
‘Obey my laws. ‘Do not allow two different kinds of animals to mate with each other. ‘Do not plant two different kinds of seed in the [same] field. ‘Do not wear clothing made from two different kinds of material.
20 「婢女許配了丈夫，還沒有被贖、得釋放，人若與她行淫，二人要受刑罰，卻不把他們治死，因為婢女還沒有得自由。
‘If a man has sex with a slave woman who has been promised to marry some other man, but she has not been bought by that man and is still a slave, the man who had sex with her must be punished. But because she is still a slave, she and the man who had sex with her must not be killed.
21 那人要把贖愆祭，就是一隻公綿羊牽到會幕門口、耶和華面前。
However, that man must bring a ram to [be slaughtered at] the entrance of the Sacred Tent area, to be an offering in order that he no longer be guilty for his sin.
22 祭司要用贖愆祭的羊在耶和華面前贖他所犯的罪，他的罪就必蒙赦免。
The priest will offer that ram to me in order that the man will be forgiven for the sin that he committed, and I will forgive him.
23 「你們到了迦南地，栽種各樣結果子的樹木，就要以所結的果子如未受割禮的一樣。三年之久，你們要以這些果子，如未受割禮的，是不可吃的。
‘When you enter the land [that I have promised to give to you], and when you plant various kinds of fruit trees, you must not eat any of their fruit for three years [DOU].
24 但第四年所結的果子全要成為聖，用以讚美耶和華。
In the fourth year all of their fruit must be set aside to belong to me; it must be brought to me to be an offering to praise me.
25 第五年，你們要吃那樹上的果子，好叫樹給你們結果子更多。我是耶和華－你們的上帝。
But in the fifth/next year, you will be permitted to eat their fruit. If you do that, your trees will produce much fruit. I, Yahweh your God, [am promising that].
26 「你們不可吃帶血的物；不可用法術，也不可觀兆。
‘Do not eat any meat that still has [the animal’s] blood in it. ‘Do not consult spirits to find out what will happen in the future, and do not practice sorcery.
27 頭的周圍不可剃，鬍鬚的周圍也不可損壞。
‘Do not shave the hair at the sides of your heads [like pagan people do].
28 不可為死人用刀劃身，也不可在身上刺花紋。我是耶和華。
‘Do not cut your bodies [when you are mourning] for people who have died, and do not put tattoos on your bodies. I, Yahweh your God, [am commanding this].
29 「不可辱沒你的女兒，使她為娼妓，恐怕地上的人專向淫亂，地就滿了大惡。
‘Do not disgrace your daughters by forcing them to become prostitutes. If you cause them to become prostitutes, soon the land will be filled with prostitutes and all other kinds of people’s wicked behavior.
30 你們要守我的安息日，敬我的聖所。我是耶和華。
‘Honor my Sabbath days and revere my Sacred Tent, because I, Yahweh, [live there].
31 「不可偏向那些交鬼的和行巫術的；不可求問他們，以致被他們玷污了。我是耶和華－你們的上帝。
‘Do not seek advice from those who (consult/talk with) the spirits of dead people [DOU], because if you do that, they will defile you. I, Yahweh your God, [am the one you should consult].
32 「在白髮的人面前，你要站起來；也要尊敬老人，又要敬畏你的上帝。我是耶和華。
‘Stand up when old people [enter the room], and show that you respect them, and also revere me, your God; [that is what] I, Yahweh, [am commanding].
33 「若有外人在你們國中和你同居，就不可欺負他。
‘When foreigners live among you [in your land], do not mistreat them.
34 和你們同居的外人，你們要看他如本地人一樣，並要愛他如己，因為你們在埃及地也作過寄居的。我是耶和華－你們的上帝。
You must treat them like you treat your fellow-citizens. Love them like you love yourselves, and do not forget that once, when you were foreigners in Egypt, [you were badly mistreated by the people of Egypt]. I, Yahweh your God, [am commanding you to do this].
35 「你們施行審判，不可行不義；在尺、秤、升、斗上也是如此。
‘When you are measuring things, to see how long they are or how much they weigh or how many there are,
36 要用公道天平、公道法碼、公道升斗、公道秤。我是耶和華－你們的上帝，曾把你們從埃及地領出來的。
use correct [measuring sticks and] scales and weights [on the scales] and measuring baskets and other measuring containers. I Yahweh, your God, who brought you out of Egypt, [am giving you these laws].
37 你們要謹守遵行我一切的律例典章。我是耶和華。」
‘Obey carefully [DOU] all my laws and decrees, because I, Yahweh, [am the one who am commanding them].’”
