< Leviticus 23 >
1 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
上主訓示梅瑟說:「
2 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, [Concerning] the set feasts of Jehovah, which ye shall proclaim as holy convocations — these are my set feasts.
你告訴以色列子民說:以下是我的節日,是你們應召集聖會的上主節日。安息日
3 Six days shall work be done; but on the seventh day is the sabbath of rest, a holy convocation; no manner of work shall ye do: it is the sabbath to Jehovah in all your dwellings.
六天工作,但第七天,應是完全休息的安息日,應召集聖會,任何工作都不可做;在你們任何住處,這日是應為上主手的安息日。
4 These are the set feasts of Jehovah, holy convocations, which ye shall proclaim in their seasons:
以下是上主的節日,你們應依照時期召集聖會:逾越節
5 In the first month, on the fourteenth of the month, between the two evenings, is the passover to Jehovah.
正月十四日傍晚,應為上主守逾越節。
6 And on the fifteenth day of this month is the feast of unleavened bread to Jehovah; seven days shall ye eat unleavened bread.
這月十五日,應為上主守無酵節,七天之內,應吃無酵餅。
7 On the first day ye shall have a holy convocation: no manner of servile work shall ye do.
第一日,應召集聖會,任何勞工都不可做;
8 And ye shall present to Jehovah an offering by fire seven days; on the seventh day is a holy convocation: no manner of servile work shall ye do.
七天內,應給上主奉獻火祭;到第七日,應應召集聖會,任何勞工都不可做。」[春季薦新節]
9 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
上主訓示梅瑟說:」
10 Speak unto the children of Israel and say unto them, When ye come into the land that I give unto you, and ye reap the harvest thereof, then ye shall bring a sheaf of the first-fruits of your harvest unto the priest.
你告訴以色列子民說:幾時你們進入了我賜給你們的地方,在那裡有一收穫,應把你們收穫的第一束交給司祭。
11 And he shall wave the sheaf before Jehovah, to be accepted for you; on the next day after the sabbath the priest shall wave it.
司祭應拿這一束行搖禮獻於上主面前,好為你們獲得悅納;司祭應在安息日的次日行搖禮。
12 And ye shall offer that day when ye wave the sheaf, a he-lamb without blemish, a yearling, for a burnt-offering to Jehovah;
在你們拿這一束行搖禮的那一天,還應給上主獻一隻一歲無瑕的公羔羊,作全番祭;
13 and the oblation thereof: two tenths of fine flour mingled with oil, an offering by fire to Jehovah for a sweet odour; and the drink-offering thereof, of wine, a fourth part of a hin.
同獻應是十分之二「厄法」油調的細麵,作為中悅上主的馨香火祭;再加四分之一」辛「酒,作為奠祭。
14 And ye shall not eat bread, or roast corn, or green ears, until the same day that ye have brought the offering of your God: [it is] an everlasting statute throughout your generations in all your dwellings.
直到那一天,即直到你們給你們的天主奉獻祭品的一天,你們不可吃新麥做的餅烤的或新鮮的麥穗:這為你們世世代代,在任何住處,是一永久法令。[五旬節]
15 And ye shall count from the morning after the sabbath, from the day that ye brought the sheaf of the wave-offering, seven weeks; they shall be complete;
從你們獻麥束行搖禮的安息日的次日,應計算整個七星期,
16 even unto the morning after the seventh sabbath shall ye count fifty days; and ye shall present a new oblation to Jehovah.
即直到第七個安息日後的次日,共計五十天,那天應給上主奉獻薦新的素祭。
17 Out of your dwellings shall ye bring two wave-loaves, of two tenths of fine flour; with leaven shall they be baken; [as] first-fruits to Jehovah.
由你們的住處帶來兩個行搖禮的餅,每個用十分之二」厄法「的發酵細麵烤成,獻與上主作初熟之祭。
18 And ye shall present with the bread seven he-lambs without blemish, yearlings, and one young bullock, and two rams: they shall be a burnt-offering to Jehovah with their oblation, and their drink-offerings, an offering by fire of a sweet odour to Jehovah.
餅以外,還應奉獻七隻一歲無瑕的公羔羊,一頭公牛犢和兩隻公綿羊,作獻與上主的全番祭;還有同奉獻的素祭和奠祭,作為中悅上主的馨香火祭;
19 And ye shall sacrifice one buck of the goats for a sin-offering, and two he-lambs, yearlings, for a sacrifice of peace-offering.
還應獻一之公山羊作贖罪祭,兩隻一歲的公羔羊作和平祭。
20 And the priest shall wave them with the bread of the first-fruits as a wave-offering before Jehovah, with the two he-lambs; they shall be holy to Jehovah, for the priest.
司祭應拿這兩隻公羔羊同初熟祭的餅,上主面前行奉獻的搖禮;這是屬於上主的聖物,應歸於司祭。
21 And ye shall make proclamation on that same day — a holy convocation shall it be unto you: no manner of servile work shall ye do: [it is] an everlasting statute in all your dwellings throughout your generations.
在這一日,你們應召集聖會,任何勞工也不可做:這為你們世世代代,在任何住處,是一永久法令。
22 And when ye reap the harvest of your land, thou shalt not in thy harvest entirely reap the corners of thy field, and the gleaning of thy harvest shalt thou not gather: thou shalt leave them unto the poor and to the stranger: I am Jehovah your God.
你們收擱在你們地內的莊稼時,你不可割到地邊;收穫後剩下的穗子,不可再拾,應留給窮人和外方人:我,上主是你們的天主。[新年節]
23 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
上主訓示梅瑟說:」
24 Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, In the seventh month, on the first of the month, shall ye have a rest, a memorial of blowing of trumpets, a holy convocation.
你告訴以色列子民說:七月初一,為你是完全休息的日子,應吹號角,召集聖會,
25 No manner of servile work shall ye do; and ye shall present an offering by fire to Jehovah.
任何勞工都不可做,應給上主獻一火祭。[贖罪節]
26 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
上主訓示梅瑟說:」
27 Also on the tenth of this seventh month is the day of the atonement: a holy convocation shall it be unto you; and ye shall afflict your souls, and present an offering by fire to Jehovah.
還有七月初十是贖罪節,是你們應召集聖會的日子,要克己苦身,並給上主獻一火祭。
28 And ye shall do no manner of work on that same day; for it is a day of atonement, to make atonement for you before Jehovah your God.
這一天,任何工作都不可做,因為是贖罪節,應在你們的上主天主面前,為你們自己行贖罪祭。
29 For every soul that is not afflicted on that same day, shall be cut off from among his peoples.
這一天,凡不克己苦身的人,應由民間剷除;
30 And every soul that doeth any manner of work on that same day, the same soul will I destroy from among his people.
這一天凡做任何工作的人,我必由民間消滅這人;
31 No manner of work shall ye do: [it is] an everlasting statute throughout your generations in all your dwellings.
任何工作不可做:這為你們世世代代,在任何住處,是一永久法令。
32 A sabbath of rest shall it be unto you; and ye shall afflict your souls. On the ninth of the month at even, from even unto even, shall ye celebrate your sabbath.
這是你們應完全休息的安息日,應克己苦身。這月初九傍晚,到次日傍晚,你們應守這安息日。「帳棚節
33 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
上主訓示梅瑟說:
34 Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, On the fifteenth day of this seventh month is the feast of booths seven days to Jehovah.
「你告訴以色列子民說:七月十五是帳棚節,應為上主舉行七天:
35 On the first day there shall be a holy convocation: no manner of servile work shall ye do.
第一天應召集聖會,任何勞工都不可做,
36 Seven days ye shall present an offering by fire to Jehovah; on the eighth day shall be a holy convocation unto you; and ye shall present an offering by fire to Jehovah: it is a solemn assembly; no manner of servile work shall ye do.
七天之久,應給上主獻火祭;到第八天,又應召集聖會,給上主獻火祭;這天是盛大集會的日子,任何勞工都不可做。
37 These are the set feasts of Jehovah, which ye shall proclaim as holy convocations, to present an offering by fire to Jehovah, a burnt-offering, and an oblation, a sacrifice, and drink-offerings, everything upon its day;
以上是上主的節日,你們應召集聖會,照每日得規定給上主獻火祭、全番祭、素祭、祭獻和奠祭;
38 besides the sabbaths of Jehovah, and besides your gifts, and besides all your vows, and besides all your voluntary offerings, which ye give to Jehovah.
此外,還有在上主的安息日,你們獻於上主的禮品、還願祭和自願祭。
39 But on the fifteenth day of the seventh month, when ye have gathered in the produce of the land, ye shall celebrate the feast of Jehovah seven days: on the first day there shall be rest, and on the eighth day there shall be rest.
七月十五日,你們收了那地方的出產,應七天舉行上午的節期:第一天和第八天應完全休息。
40 And ye shall take on the first day the fruit of beautiful trees, palm branches and the boughs of leafy trees, and willows of the brook; and ye shall rejoice before Jehovah your God seven days.
第一天,你們應拿著樹木結的美果、棕旅樹枝、葉密的大樹枝和溪邊的柳條;如此七天之久,應在上主你們的天主面前喜樂。
41 And ye shall celebrate it as a feast to Jehovah seven days in the year: [it is] an everlasting statute throughout your generations; in the seventh month shall ye celebrate it.
你們每年應七天之久舉行這上主的節日,且應在七月舉行這節日:這為你們世世代代是一永久的法令。
42 In booths shall ye dwell seven days; all born in Israel shall dwell in booths;
七天之久,你們應住在帳棚內,凡以色列公民,都應住在帳棚內,
43 that your generations may know that I caused the children of Israel to dwell in booths, when I brought them out of the land of Egypt: I am Jehovah your God.
好叫你們的後代知道,當我領以色列子民出離埃及國的時候,曾使他們住在帳棚內:我,上主是你們的天主。」
44 And Moses declared the set feasts of Jehovah to the children of Israel.
梅瑟就這樣給以色列子民宣布了上主的節日。
