< Leviticus 1 >

1 And Jehovah called to Moses and spoke to him out of the tent of meeting, saying,
上主叫了梅瑟來,由會幕中訓示他說:
2 Speak unto the children of Israel and say unto them, When any man of you presenteth an offering to Jehovah, ye shall present your offering of the cattle, of the herd and of the flock.
你告訴以色列子民說:你們中若有人願意由家畜中給上主奉獻祭品。應以牛羊作你們的祭品。
3 If his offering be a burnt-offering of the herd, he shall present it a male without blemish: at the entrance of the tent of meeting shall he present it, for his acceptance before Jehovah.
若有人獻牛作全燔祭,該獻一條無瑕的公牛,牽到會幕門口,為在上主面前蒙受納悅;
4 And he shall lay his hand on the head of the burnt-offering; and it shall be accepted for him to make atonement for him.
先按手在全燔祭的頭上,使祭牲蒙受納悅,代自己贖罪。
5 And he shall slaughter the bullock before Jehovah; and Aaron's sons, the priests, shall present the blood and sprinkle the blood round about on the altar that is at the entrance of the tent of meeting.
以後在上主面前宰了那牛,亞郎的兒子司祭們,應奉獻牲血,將血灑在會幕門的祭壇的四週。
6 And he shall flay the burnt-offering, and cut it up into its pieces.
奉獻者剝去祭牲的皮,將犧牲切成塊。
7 And the sons of Aaron the priest shall put fire on the altar, and lay wood in order on the fire;
亞郎的兒子司祭們先將火放在祭壇上,火上擺上木柴;
8 and Aaron's sons, the priests, shall lay the pieces, the head, and the fat, in order on the wood that is on the fire which is on the altar;
然後亞郎的兒子司祭們,將成塊的肉、頭和脂肪,擺在祭壇火上的木柴上。
9 but its inwards and its legs shall he wash in water; and the priest shall burn all on the altar, a burnt-offering, an offering by fire to Jehovah of a sweet odour.
奉獻者應用水將內臟和小腿洗淨;司祭將這一切放在祭壇上焚燒,作為全燔祭,作為中悅上主的馨香火祭。
10 And if his offering be of the flock, of the sheep or of the goats, for a burnt-offering, he shall present it a male without blemish.
若有人獻羊作全燔祭,不論是綿羊,或是山羊,該獻一頭無瑕的公羊。
11 And he shall slaughter it on the side of the altar northward before Jehovah; and Aaron's sons, the priests, shall sprinkle its blood on the altar round about.
應在上主面前,祭台的北邊將牠宰了;亞郎的兒子司祭們,應將血灑在祭壇的四週。
12 And he shall cut it into its pieces, and its head, and its fat; and the priest shall lay them in order on the wood that is on the fire which is on the altar;
然後奉獻者應將祭牲切成塊,司祭將成塊的肉、頭和脂肪,擺在祭壇火上的木柴上。
13 but the inwards and the legs shall he wash with water; and the priest shall present [it] all, and burn [it] on the altar: it is a burnt-offering, an offering by fire to Jehovah of a sweet odour.
那人應用水將內臟和小腿洗淨;司祭將這一切放在祭壇上焚燒,作為全燔祭,作為中悅上主的馨香火祭。
14 And if his offering to Jehovah be a burnt-offering of fowls, then he shall present his offering of turtle-doves, or of young pigeons.
若有人給上主獻飛禽作全燔祭,該獻班鳩或雛鴿作祭品。
15 And the priest shall bring it near to the altar and pinch off its head and burn it on the altar; and its blood shall be pressed out at the side of the altar.
司祭應將牠帶到祭壇前,扭斷他的頭,放在祭壇上焚燒;先把牠的血靠在祭壇的旁邊擠盡,
16 And he shall remove its crop with its feathers, and cast it beside the altar on the east, into the place of the ashes;
然後那人將嗉囊和羽毛拔去,丟在祭壇東邊倒灰的地方。
17 and he shall split it open at its wings, [but] shall not divide [it] asunder; and the priest shall burn it on the altar on the wood that is on the fire: it is a burnt-offering, an offering by fire to Jehovah of a sweet odour.
然後司祭將犧牲由兩翼的中間撕開,但不可分離;放在祭壇上焚燒,作為全燔祭,作為中悅上主的馨香火祭。
