< Numbers 18 >
1 So the LORD said to Aaron, “You and your sons and your father’s house must bear the iniquity involving the sanctuary. And you and your sons alone must bear the iniquity involving your priesthood.
斯てヱホバ、アロンに告て言たまはく汝と汝の子等および汝の父祖の家の者は聖所に關れる罪をその身に擔當べしまた汝と汝の子等は汝らがその祭司の職について獲ところの罪をその身に擔當べし
2 But bring with you also your brothers from the tribe of Levi, the tribe of your father, that they may join you and assist you and your sons before the Tent of the Testimony.
汝また汝の兄弟たるレビの支派の者すなはち汝の父祖の支派の者等をも率て汝に合せしめ汝に事しむべし但し汝と汝の子等は律法の幕屋の前に侍るべきなり
3 And they shall attend to your duties and to all the duties of the Tent; but they must not come near to the furnishings of the sanctuary or the altar, or both they and you will die.
彼らは汝の職守と聖所の職守とを守るべし只聖所の器具と壇とに近くべからず恐くは彼等も汝等も死るならん
4 They are to join you and attend to the duties of the Tent of Meeting, doing all the work at the Tent; but no outsider may come near you.
彼等は汝に合して集合の幕屋の職守を守り幕屋の諸の役事をなすべきなり外人は汝らに近づく可らず
5 And you shall attend to the duties of the sanctuary and of the altar, so that wrath may not fall on the Israelites again.
斯なんぢらは聖所の職守と祭壇の職守を守るべし然せばヱホバの震怒かさねてイスラエルの子孫に及ぶこと有じ
6 Behold, I Myself have selected your fellow Levites from the Israelites as a gift to you, dedicated to the LORD to perform the service for the Tent of Meeting.
視よ我なんぢらの兄弟たるレビ人をイスラエルの子孫の中より取りヱホバのために之を賜物として汝らに賜ふて集會の幕屋の役事を爲しむ
7 But only you and your sons shall attend to your priesthood for everything concerning the altar and what is inside the veil, and you are to perform that service. I am giving you the work of the priesthood as a gift, but any outsider who comes near the sanctuary must be put to death.”
汝と汝の子等は祭司の職を守りて祭壇の上と障蔽の幕の内の一切の事を執おこなひ斯ともに勤むべし我祭司の職の勤務と賜物として汝らに賜ふ外人の近く者は殺されん
8 Then the LORD said to Aaron, “Behold, I have put you in charge of My offerings. As for all the sacred offerings of the Israelites, I have given them to you and your sons as a portion and a permanent statute.
ヱホバ又アロンに言たまはく我イスラエルの子孫の諸の聖禮物の中我に擧祭とするところの者をもて汝に賜ひて得さす即ち我これを汝と汝の子等にあたへてその分となさしめ是を永く例となす
9 A portion of the most holy offerings reserved from the fire will be yours. From all the offerings they render to Me as most holy offerings, whether grain offerings or sin offerings or guilt offerings, that part belongs to you and your sons.
斯のごとく至聖禮物の中火にて燒ざる者は汝に歸すべし即ちその我に献る諸の禮物素祭罪祭愆祭等みな至聖くして汝と汝らの子等に歸すべし
10 You are to eat it as a most holy offering, and every male may eat it. You shall regard it as holy.
至聖所にて汝これを食ふべし男子等はみなこれを食ふことを得是は汝に歸すべき聖物たるなり
11 And this is yours as well: the offering of their gifts, along with all the wave offerings of the Israelites. I have given this to you and your sons and daughters as a permanent statute. Every ceremonially clean person in your household may eat it.
汝に歸すべき物は是なり即ちイスラエルの子孫の献る擧祭と搖祭の物我これを汝と汝の男子と女子に與へ是を永く例となす汝の家の者の中潔き者はみな之を食ふことを得るなり
12 I give you all the freshest olive oil and all the finest new wine and grain that the Israelites give to the LORD as their firstfruits.
油の嘉者酒の嘉者穀物の嘉者など凡てヱホバに献るその初の物を我なんぢに與ふ
13 The firstfruits of everything in their land that they bring to the LORD will belong to you. Every ceremonially clean person in your household may eat them.
最初に成る國の產物の中ヱホバに携へたる者は皆なんぢに歸すべし汝の家の者の中潔き者はみな之を食ふことを得るなり
14 Every devoted thing in Israel belongs to you.
イスラエルの人の献納る物は皆汝に歸すべし
15 The firstborn of every womb, whether man or beast, that is offered to the LORD belongs to you. But you must surely redeem every firstborn son and every firstborn male of unclean animals.
凡そ血肉ある者の首出子にしてヱホバに献らるる者は人にもあれ畜にもあれ皆なんぢに歸すべし但し人の首出子は必ず贖ふべくまた汚れたる畜獣の首出子も贖ふべきなり
16 You are to pay the redemption price for a month-old male according to your valuation: five shekels of silver, according to the sanctuary shekel, which is twenty gerahs.
之を贖ふにはその人の生れて一箇月に至れる後に汝その估價に依り聖所のシケルに循ひて銀五シケルに之を贖ふべし一シケルはすなはち二十ゲラなり
17 But you must not redeem the firstborn of an ox, a sheep, or a goat; they are holy. You are to sprinkle their blood on the altar and burn their fat as an offering made by fire, a pleasing aroma to the LORD.
然ど牛の首出子羊の首出子山羊の首出子は贖ふべからず是等は聖しその血を壇の上に灑ぎまたその脂を焚て火祭となしてヱホバに馨しき香をたてまつるべし
18 And their meat belongs to you, just as the breast and right thigh of the wave offering belong to you.
その肉は汝に歸すべし搖る胸と右の腿とおなじく是は汝に歸するなり
19 All the holy offerings that the Israelites present to the LORD I give to you and to your sons and daughters as a permanent statute. It is a permanent covenant of salt before the LORD for you and your offspring.”
イスラエルの子孫がヱホバに献て擧祭とする所の聖物はみな我これを汝と汝の男子女子に與へこれを永く例となす是はヱホバの前において汝と汝の子孫に對する鹽の契約にして變らざる者なり
20 Then the LORD said to Aaron, “You will have no inheritance in their land, nor will you have any portion among them. I am your portion and your inheritance among the Israelites.
ヱホバまたアロンに告たまはく汝はイスラエルの子孫の地の中に產業を有べからずまた彼等の中に何の分をも有べからず彼らの中において我は汝の分汝の產業たるなり
21 Behold, I have given to the Levites all the tithes in Israel as an inheritance in return for the work they do, the service of the Tent of Meeting.
またレビの子孫たる者には我イスラエルの中において物の十分の一を與へて之が產業となし其なすところの役事すなはち集會の幕屋の役事に報ゆ
22 No longer may the Israelites come near to the Tent of Meeting, or they will incur guilt and die.
イスラエルの子孫はかさねて集會の幕屋に近づくべからず恐くは罪を負て死ん
23 The Levites are to perform the work of the Tent of Meeting, and they must bear their iniquity. This is a permanent statute for the generations to come. The Levites will not receive an inheritance among the Israelites.
第レビ人集會の幕屋の役事をなすべしまた彼らはその罪な自己の身に負べし彼等はイスラエルの子孫の中に產業の地を有ざる事をもてその例となして汝らの世代の子孫の中に永く之を守るべきなり
24 For I have given to the Levites as their inheritance the tithe that the Israelites present to the LORD as a contribution. That is why I told them that they would not receive an inheritance among the Israelites.”
イスラエルの子孫が十に一を取り擧祭としてヱホバに献るところの物を我レビ人に與へてその產業となさしむるが故に我かれらにつきて言り彼等はイスラエルの子孫の中に產業の地を得べからずと
25 And the LORD instructed Moses,
ヱホバ、モーセに告て言たまはく
26 “Speak to the Levites and tell them: ‘When you receive from the Israelites the tithe that I have given you as your inheritance, you must present part of it as an offering to the LORD—a tithe of the tithe.
汝かくレビ人に告て之に言べし我がイスラエルの子孫より取て汝等に與へて產業となさしむるその什一の物を汝ら之より受る時はその什一の物の十分の一を献てヱホバの擧祭となすべし
27 Your offering will be reckoned to you as grain from the threshing floor or juice from the winepress.
汝等の擧祭の物品は禾場よりたてまつる穀物の如く酒醡の内よりたてまつる酒のごとくに見做れん
28 So you are to present an offering to the LORD from all the tithes you receive from the Israelites, and from these you are to give the LORD’s offering to Aaron the priest.
此のごとく汝等もまたイスラエルの子孫より受る一切の什一の物の中よりヱホバに擧祭を献げそのヱホバの擧祭を祭司アロンに與ふべし
29 You must present the offering due the LORD from all the best of every gift, the holiest part of it.’
汝らの受る一切の禮物の中より汝らはその嘉ところ即ちその聖き分を取てヱホバの擧祭を献べし
30 Therefore say to the Levites, ‘When you have presented the best part, it will be reckoned to you as the produce of the threshing floor or winepress.
汝かく彼等に言べし汝らその中より嘉ところを取て献るに於てはその殘餘の物は汝等レビ人におけること禾場より取る物のごとく酒醡より取る物のごとくならん
31 And you and your households may eat the rest of it anywhere; it is the compensation for your work at the Tent of Meeting.
汝等と汝らの眷屬何處にても之を食ふことを得べし是は汝らが集會の幕屋に於て爲す役事の報酬たればなり
32 Once you have presented the best part of it, you will not incur guilt because of it. But you must not defile the sacred offerings of the Israelites, or else you will die.’”
汝らその嘉ところを献るに於ては之がために罪を負こと有じ汝らはイスラエルの子孫の聖別て献る物を汚すべからず恐くは汝ら死ん
