Numbers 18
1 And the Lord said unto Aaron, Thou and thy sons and thy father's house with thee shall bear the iniquity of the sanctuary; and thou and thy sons with thee shall bear the iniquity of your priesthood.
耶和华对亚伦说：“你和你的儿子，并你本族的人，要一同担当干犯圣所的罪孽。你和你的儿子也要一同担当干犯祭司职任的罪孽。
2 And also thy brethren, the tribe of Levi, the tribe of thy father, bring thou near with thee, that they may be joined with thee, and minister unto thee; while thou and thy sons with thee shall be before the tabernacle of the testimony.
你要带你弟兄利未人，就是你祖宗支派的人前来，使他们与你联合，服事你，只是你和你的儿子，要一同在法柜的帐幕前供职。
3 And they shall keep thy charge, and the charge of all the tabernacle: only unto the vessels of the sanctuary and unto the altar shall they not come near, that they may not die, either they or you.
他们要守所吩咐你的，并守全帐幕，只是不可挨近圣所的器具和坛，免得他们和你们都死亡。
4 And they shall be joined unto thee, and keep the charge of the tabernacle of the congregation, respecting all the service of the tabernacle: and a stranger shall not come nigh unto you.
他们要与你联合，也要看守会幕，办理帐幕一切的事，只是外人不可挨近你们。
5 And ye shall keep the charge of the sanctuary, and the charge of the altar; that there be not any more wrath upon the children of Israel.
你们要看守圣所和坛，免得忿怒再临到以色列人。
6 And I, behold, I have taken your brethren the Levites from the midst of the children of Israel; unto you are they given as a gift for the Lord, to perform the service of the tabernacle of the congregation.
我已将你们的弟兄利未人从以色列人中拣选出来归耶和华，是给你们为赏赐的，为要办理会幕的事。
7 And thou and thy sons with thee shall keep your priesthood concerning every matter of the altar, and for that within the vail, where ye shall serve: as a service of gift do I give you your priesthood; and the stranger that cometh nigh shall be put to death.
你和你的儿子要为一切属坛和幔子内的事一同守祭司的职任。你们要这样供职；我将祭司的职任给你们当作赏赐事奉我。凡挨近的外人必被治死。”
8 And the Lord spoke unto Aaron, And I, behold, I give thee the charge of my heave-offerings; of all the hallowed things of the children of Israel, unto thee have I given them as an official portion, and to thy sons, as a fixed right for ever.
耶和华晓谕亚伦说：“我已将归我的举祭，就是以色列人一切分别为圣的物，交给你经管；因你受过膏，把这些都赐给你和你的子孙，当作永得的分。
9 This shall belong to thee of the most holy things, from the fire-[offerings]: every oblation of theirs, namely, every meat-offering of theirs, and every sin-offering of theirs, and every, trespass-offering of theirs, which they shall render unto me, shall, as most holy things, belong to thee and to thy sons.
以色列人归给我至圣的供物，就是一切的素祭、赎罪祭、赎愆祭，其中所有存留不经火的，都为至圣之物，要归给你和你的子孙。
10 In a most holy place shalt thou eat it: every male shall eat it; holy shall it be unto thee.
你要拿这些当至圣物吃；凡男丁都可以吃。你当以此物为圣。
11 And this shall be thine, as the heave-offering of their gift, of all the wave-offerings of the children of Israel; unto thee have I given them, and to thy sons and to thy daughters with thee, as a fixed portion for ever: every one that is clean in thy house may eat thereof.
以色列人所献的举祭并摇祭都是你的；我已赐给你和你的儿女，当作永得的分；凡在你家中的洁净人都可以吃。
12 All the best of oil, and all the best of wine, and of corn, the first-fruits thereof which they shall offer unto the Lord, to thee have I given them.
凡油中、新酒中、五谷中至好的，就是以色列人所献给耶和华初熟之物，我都赐给你。
13 The first ripe fruit of whatsoever is in their land, which they may bring unto the Lord, shall be thine: every one that is clean in thy house may eat thereof.
凡从他们地上所带来给耶和华初熟之物也都要归与你。你家中的洁净人都可以吃。
14 Every thing devoted in Israel shall be thine.
以色列中一切永献的都必归与你。
15 Whatever openeth the womb of all flesh, which they bring unto the Lord, be it of men or of cattle, shall be thine: nevertheless thou shalt redeem the first-born of man, and the firstling of the unclean cattle shalt thou redeem.
他们所有奉给耶和华的，连人带牲畜，凡头生的，都要归给你；只是人头生的，总要赎出来；不洁净牲畜头生的，也要赎出来。
16 And those that are to be redeemed from a month old shalt thou redeem, according to the usual estimation of five shekels of silver, after the shekel of the sanctuary, which is twenty gerahs.
其中在一月之外所当赎的，要照你所估定的价，按圣所的平，用银子五舍客勒赎出来（一舍客勒是二十季拉）。
17 But the firstling of an ox, or the firstling of a sheep, or the firstling of a goat, thou shalt not redeem; they are holy: their blood shalt thou sprinkle upon the altar, and their fat shalt thou burn as a fire-offering, for a sweet savor unto the Lord.
只是头生的牛，或是头生的绵羊和山羊，必不可赎，都是圣的，要把它的血洒在坛上，把它的脂油焚烧，当作馨香的火祭献给耶和华。
18 And their flesh shall be thine: as the breast that is waved and as the right shoulder shall it be thine.
它的肉必归你，像被摇的胸、被举的右腿归你一样。
19 All the heave-offerings of the holy things, which the children of Israel set apart unto the Lord, I have given to thee, and to thy sons and to thy daughters with thee, as a fixed portion for ever: it is a covenant of salt for ever before the Lord for thee and for thy seed with thee.
凡以色列人所献给耶和华圣物中的举祭，我都赐给你和你的儿女，当作永得的分。这是给你和你的后裔、在耶和华面前作为永远的盐约。”
20 And the Lord said unto Aaron, In their land shalt thou have no inheritance, and any portion shalt thou not have among them: I am thy portion and thy inheritance among the children of Israel.
耶和华对亚伦说：“你在以色列人的境内不可有产业，在他们中间也不可有分。我就是你的分，是你的产业。”
21 And to the children of Levi, behold, I have given every tithe in Israel, for an inheritance, in lieu of their service which they render, the service of the tabernacle of the congregation.
“凡以色列中出产的十分之一，我已赐给利未的子孙为业；因他们所办的是会幕的事，所以赐给他们为酬他们的劳。
22 And the children of Israel shall not henceforth come nigh unto the tabernacle of the congregation, to bear sin, to die thereby.
从今以后，以色列人不可挨近会幕，免得他们担罪而死。
23 But they of the tribe of Levi themselves shall perform the service of the tabernacle of the congregation, and they shall bear their iniquity: a statute for ever shall it be throughout your generations; and among the children of Israel shall they not possess any inheritance.
惟独利未人要办会幕的事，担当罪孽；这要作你们世世代代永远的定例。他们在以色列人中不可有产业；
24 But the tithes of the children of Israel, which they offer as a heave-offering unto the Lord, have I given to the Levites for an inheritance: therefore have I said unto them, Among the children of Israel shall they obtain no inheritance.
因为以色列人中出产的十分之一，就是献给耶和华为举祭的，我已赐给利未人为业。所以我对他们说：‘在以色列人中不可有产业。’”
25 And the Lord spoke unto Moses, saying,
耶和华吩咐摩西说：
26 And unto the Levites shalt thou speak, and say unto them, When ye take from the children of Israel the tithes which I have given you from them for your inheritance: then shall ye separate therefrom a heave-offering of the Lord, the tenth part of the tithe.
“你晓谕利未人说：你们从以色列人中所取的十分之一，就是我给你们为业的，要再从那十分之一中取十分之一作为举祭献给耶和华，
27 And your heave-offering shall be reckoned unto you, like the corn of the threshing-floor, and as the fulness of the wine-press.
这举祭要算为你们场上的谷，又如满酒榨的酒。
28 Thus shall ye also offer a heave-offering unto the Lord from all your tithes, which ye may receive from the children of Israel; and ye shall give thereof the heave-offering of the Lord to Aaron the priest.
这样，你们从以色列人中所得的十分之一也要作举祭献给耶和华，从这十分之一中，将所献给耶和华的举祭归给祭司亚伦。
29 From all your gifts shall ye set apart every heave-offering of the Lord, from every best part thereof, its hallowed portion therefrom.
奉给你们的一切礼物，要从其中将至好的，就是分别为圣的，献给耶和华为举祭。
30 And thou shalt say unto them, When ye have separated the best thereof from it: then shall [the remainder] be counted unto the Levites as the produce of the threshing-floor, and as the produce of the wine-press.
所以你要对利未人说：你们从其中将至好的举起，这就算为你们场上的粮，又如酒榨的酒。
31 And ye may eat it in every place, ye and your households; for it is your reward in lieu of your service at the tabernacle of the congregation.
你们和你们家属随处可以吃；这原是你们的赏赐，是酬你们在会幕里办事的劳。
32 And ye shall not bear any sin by reason of it, when ye have separated its best part from it: and the holy things of the children of Israel shall ye not profane, lest ye die.
你们从其中将至好的举起，就不至因这物担罪。你们不可亵渎以色列人的圣物，免得死亡。”
