< Leviticus 5 >
1 And if a soul sin, and hear the voice of swearing, and he is a witness or has seen or been conscious, if he do not report it, he shall bear his iniquity.
若有人詛咒的誓言,能為所見所知的事作證而不肯聲明,就犯了罪,應負罪咎;
2 That soul which shall touch any unclean thing, or carcase, or [that which is] unclean being taken of beasts, or the dead bodies of abominable [reptiles] which are unclean, or carcases of unclean cattle,
或有人誤觸了什麼不潔之物,不論是不潔野獸的屍體,或是不潔家畜的屍體,或是不節昆蟲的屍體,而未發覺,以後發覺自己成為不潔的,因而有罪;
3 or should touch the uncleanness of a man, or whatever kind, which he may touch and be defiled by, and it should have escaped him, but afterwards he should know, —then he shall have transgressed.
或有人誤摸了人的不潔,任何能玷污人的不潔,而未發覺,以後發覺,就有了罪;
4 That unrighteous soul, which determines with his lips to do evil or to do good according to whatsoever a man may determine with an oath, and it shall have escaped his notice, and he shall [afterwards] know [it], and [so] he should sin in some one of these things:
或有人出言輕易發了誓,或懷惡意,或懷善意,人無論在什麼事上輕易發了誓,當時未發覺,而以後發覺自己在某些事上有了罪;
5 —then shall he declare his sin in the tings wherein he has sinned by that sin.
那麼幾時他發覺在上述某件事上有了罪,就該承認自己所犯的罪,
6 And he shall bring for his transgressions against the Lord, for his sin which he has sinned, a ewe lamb of the flock, or a kid of the goats, for a sin-offering; and the priest shall make an atonement for him for his sin which he has sinned, and his sin shall be forgiven him.
為賠補所犯的罪,應由羊群中取一隻母羊或綿羊,或山羊,獻給上主作贖罪祭,司祭應為他的罪行贖罪禮。
7 And if he cannot afford a sheep, he shall bring for his sin which he has sinned, two turtle-doves or two young pigeons to the Lord; one for a sin-offering, and the other for a burnt-offering.
如果他的財力不足辦一隻羊,為賠補所犯的罪,應獻給上主兩隻班鳩或兩隻雛鴿:一隻做為贖罪祭,一隻做為全燔祭。
8 And he shall bring them to the priest, and the priest shall bring the sin-offering first; and the priest shall pinch off the head from the neck, and shall not divide the body.
將牠們交給司祭;司祭應先奉獻那作贖罪祭的一隻,掐住脖子扭斷牠的頭,卻不可分離;
9 And he shall sprinkle of the blood of the sin-offering on the side of the altar, but the rest of the blood he shall drop at the foot of the altar, for it is a sin-offering.
然後取些贖罪祭犧牲的血,灑在祭壇壁上,其餘的血都擠在祭檀腳旁:這是贖罪祭。
10 And he shall make the second a whole-burnt-offering, as it is fit; and the priest shall make atonement for his sin which he has sinned, and it shall be forgiven him.
至於第二隻:照全燔祭的儀式獻作全墦祭。司祭這樣為他所犯的罪行贖罪禮,他方可獲得罪赦。
11 And if he cannot afford a pair of turtle-doves, or two young pigeons, then shall he bring as his gift for his sin, the tenth part of an ephah of fine flour for a sin-offering; he shall not pour oil upon it, nor shall he put frankincense upon it, because it is a sin-offering.
如果他的財力連兩隻班鳩或兩隻雛鴿也不能備辦,為賠補所犯的罪,應獻十分之一「厄法」細麵,作贖罪祭祭品,上面不可倒油,也不可放乳香,因為是贖罪祭。
12 And he shall bring it to the priest; and the priest having taken a handful of it, shall lay the memorial of it on the altar of whole-burnt-offerings to the Lord; it is a sin-offering.
將祭品交給司祭,司祭就取出一把麵,放在祭壇上與獻給上主的火祭一同焚燒,為獲得記念:這是贖罪祭。
13 And the priest shall make atonement for him for his sin, which he has sinned in one of these things, and it shall be forgiven him; and that which is left shall be the priest's, as an offering of fine flour.
司祭這樣為他所犯的罪過行贖罪禮,他方可獲得罪赦。剩下的,如素祭一樣,應歸於司祭。」贖過祭祭儀。
14 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
上主訓示梅瑟說:「
15 The soul which shall be really unconscious, and shall sin unwillingly in any of the holy things of the Lord, shall even bring to the Lord for his transgression, a ram of the flock without blemish, valued according to shekels of silver according to the shekel of the sanctuary, for his [transgression] wherein he transgressed.
若有人有了過犯,不慎冒犯了上主的聖物,為賠補自己的過失,應從羊群中取一隻無瑕的公綿羊,依照你的估價,按聖所的幣制折合銀子,獻與上主作贖過祭。
16 And he shall make compensation for that wherein he has sinned in the holy things; and he shall add the fifth part to it, and give it to the priest; and the priest shall make atonement for him with the ram of transgression, and [his sin] shall be forgiven him.
為賠償他對聖物所犯的過失,應還另加五分之一,交給司祭。司祭應用贖過祭的公綿羊為他行贖罪禮,他方可獲得罪赦。
17 And the soul which shall sin, and do one thing [against] any of the commandments of the Lord, which it is not right to do, and has not known it, and shall have transgressed, and shall have contracted guilt,
若有人犯了罪,不慎做了上主戒命所不許做的事,有了過犯,應負罪債,
18 he shall even bring a ram without blemish from the flock, [valued] at a price of silver for his transgression to the priest; and the priest shall make atonement for his trespass of ignorance, wherein he ignorantly trespassed, and he knew it not; and it shall be forgiven him.
他應照你的估價,從羊群中取一隻無瑕的公綿羊,交給司祭做贖過祭。司祭這樣為他不慎而誤犯的過失,替他行贖罪禮,他才可獲得罪赦:
19 For he has surely been guilty of transgression before the Lord.
這是贖過祭,是他應向上主獻的贖過祭。」
