< Leviticus 20 >
1 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
耶和華對摩西說:
2 Thou shalt say also to the children of Israel, Every one of the children of Israel, or of the strangers who sojourn in Israel, that giveth of his seed unto Molech, shall certainly be put to death: the people of the land shall stone him with stones.
「你還要曉諭以色列人說:凡以色列人,或是在以色列中寄居的外人,把自己的兒女獻給摩洛的,總要治死他;本地人要用石頭把他打死。
3 And I will set my face against that man, and will cut him off from among his people; because he hath given of his seed unto Molech, so as to make my sanctuary unclean, and to profane my holy name.
我也要向那人變臉,把他從民中剪除;因為他把兒女獻給摩洛,玷污我的聖所,褻瀆我的聖名。
4 And if the people of the land do any ways hide their eyes from that man, when he giveth of his seed unto Molech, that they kill him not,
那人把兒女獻給摩洛,本地人若佯為不見,不把他治死,
5 then I will set my face against that man, and against his family, and will cut him off, and all that go a whoring after him, to commit whoredom with Molech, from among their people.
我就要向這人和他的家變臉,把他和一切隨他與摩洛行邪淫的人都從民中剪除。
6 — And the soul that turneth unto necromancers and unto soothsayers, to go a whoring after them, I will set my face against that soul, and will cut him off from among his people.
「人偏向交鬼的和行巫術的,隨他們行邪淫,我要向那人變臉,把他從民中剪除。
7 Hallow yourselves therefore, and be holy; for I am Jehovah your God.
所以你們要自潔成聖,因為我是耶和華-你們的上帝。
8 And ye shall observe my statutes, and do them: I am Jehovah who hallow you.
你們要謹守遵行我的律例;我是叫你們成聖的耶和華。
9 Whatever man revileth his father and his mother shall certainly be put to death: he hath reviled his father and his mother; his blood is upon him.
凡咒罵父母的,總要治死他;他咒罵了父母,他的罪要歸到他身上。
10 And a man that committeth adultery with a man's wife, who committeth adultery with his neighbour's wife, — the adulterer and the adulteress shall certainly be put to death.
「與鄰舍之妻行淫的,姦夫淫婦都必治死。
11 And a man that lieth with his father's wife hath uncovered his father's nakedness: both of them shall certainly be put to death; their blood is upon them.
與繼母行淫的,就是羞辱了他父親,總要把他們二人治死,罪要歸到他們身上。
12 And if a man lie with his daughter-in-law, both of them shall certainly be put to death: they have wrought confusion; their blood is upon them.
與兒婦同房的,總要把他們二人治死;他們行了逆倫的事,罪要歸到他們身上。
13 And if a man lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall certainly be put to death; their blood is upon them.
人若與男人苟合,像與女人一樣,他們二人行了可憎的事,總要把他們治死,罪要歸到他們身上。
14 And if a man take a wife and her mother, it is infamy: they shall burn him and them with fire, that there be no infamy among you.
人若娶妻,並娶其母,便是大惡,要把這三人用火焚燒,使你們中間免去大惡。
15 And if a man lie with a beast for copulation, he shall certainly be put to death; and ye shall kill the beast.
人若與獸淫合,總要治死他,也要殺那獸。
16 And if a woman approach unto any beast to gender therewith, thou shalt kill the woman and the beast: they shall certainly be put to death; their blood is upon them.
女人若與獸親近,與牠淫合,你要殺那女人和那獸,總要把他們治死,罪要歸到他們身上。
17 And if a man take his sister, his father's daughter, or his mother's daughter, and see her nakedness, and she see his nakedness, that is a disgrace; and they shall be cut off before the eyes of the children of their people: he hath uncovered his sister's nakedness; he shall bear his iniquity.
「人若娶他的姊妹,無論是異母同父的,是異父同母的,彼此見了下體,這是可恥的事;他們必在本民的眼前被剪除。他露了姊妹的下體,必擔當自己的罪孽。
18 And if a man shall lie with a woman in her infirmity, and uncover her nakedness, her flux doth he lay bare, and she hath uncovered the fountain of her blood; and both of them shall be cut off from among their people.
婦人有月經,若與她同房,露了她的下體,就是露了婦人的血源,婦人也露了自己的血源,二人必從民中剪除。
19 And the nakedness of thy mother's sister, and of thy father's sister shalt thou not uncover; for he hath laid naked his near relation: they shall bear their iniquity.
不可露姨母或是姑母的下體,這是露了骨肉之親的下體;二人必擔當自己的罪孽。
20 And if a man lie with his aunt, he hath uncovered his uncle's nakedness: their sin shall they bear: they shall die childless.
人若與伯叔之妻同房,就羞辱了他的伯叔;二人要擔當自己的罪,必無子女而死。
21 And if a man take his brother's wife, it is an unclean thing: he hath uncovered his brother's nakedness: they shall be childless.
人若娶弟兄之妻,這本是污穢的事,羞辱了他的弟兄;二人必無子女。
22 And ye shall observe all my statutes, and all mine ordinances, and do them, that the land whither I bring you to dwell therein vomit you not out.
「所以,你們要謹守遵行我一切的律例典章,免得我領你們去住的那地把你們吐出。
23 And ye shall not walk in the customs of the nation which I am casting out before you; for all these things have they done, and they became an abomination to me.
我在你們面前所逐出的國民,你們不可隨從他們的風俗;因為他們行了這一切的事,所以我厭惡他們。
24 And I have said unto you, Ye shall possess their land, and I will give it unto you for a possession; a land flowing with milk and honey: I am Jehovah your God, who have separated you from the peoples.
但我對你們說過,你們要承受他們的地,就是我要賜給你們為業、流奶與蜜之地。我是耶和華-你們的上帝,使你們與萬民有分別的。
25 And ye shall make a separation between the clean beast and the unclean, and between the unclean fowl and the clean, and ye shall not make yourselves an abomination by beast, or by fowl, or by anything that creepeth on the ground which I have separated for you, declaring [it] as unclean.
所以,你們要把潔淨和不潔淨的禽獸分別出來;不可因我給你們分為不潔淨的禽獸,或是滋生在地上的活物,使自己成為可憎惡的。
26 And ye shall be holy unto me; for I Jehovah am holy, and have separated you from the peoples to be mine.
你們要歸我為聖,因為我-耶和華是聖的,並叫你們與萬民有分別,使你們作我的民。
27 And if there be a man or a woman in whom is a spirit of Python or of divination, they shall certainly be put to death: they shall stone them with stones; their blood is upon them.
