< Leviticus 10 >
1 And the sons of Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, each take his censer, and put fire in them, and put incense on it, and bring strange fire near before YHWH, which He has not commanded them;
亞郎的兒子納達布和阿彼胡,各自取了火盤,放上火,加上乳香,在上主面前奉獻了上主所禁止的凡火。
2 and fire goes out from before YHWH and consumes them, and they die before YHWH.
那時由上主面前噴出火來,將他們燒死在上主面前。
3 And Moses says to Aaron, “It [is] that which YHWH has spoken, saying, By those drawing near to Me I am sanctified, and in the face of all the people I am honored”; and Aaron is silent.
梅瑟對亞郎說:「這就是上主所說:對親近我的人,我要顯我為聖;在全民眾前我要以我為尊。」亞郎默不作聲。
4 And Moses calls to Mishael and to Elzaphan, sons of Uzziel, uncle of Aaron, and says to them, “Come near, carry your brothers from the front of the holy place to the outside of the camp”;
梅瑟遂叫了亞郎的叔父烏齊耳的兒子米沙耳和厄耳匝番來,對他們說:「前來,將你們的兄弟由聖所前抬到營外去!」
5 and they come near, and carry them in their coats to the outside of the camp, as Moses has spoken.
他們就前去,抓住死者的衣服,將死者抬到營外,照梅瑟所吩附的。
6 And Moses says to Aaron and his sons, to Eleazar and to Ithamar, “You do not uncover your heads, and you do not tear your garments, that you do not die, and He is angry on all the congregation; as for your brothers, the whole house of Israel, they lament the burning which YHWH has kindled;
以後,梅瑟和亞郎的兒子厄肋阿匝爾及依塔瑪爾說:「不要散開你們的頭髮,不要撕裂你們的衣服,免得你們死亡,也免得上主對全會眾發怒;讓你們的弟兄以色列全家,去為上主燃起的火哀悼。
7 and you do not go out from the opening of the Tent of Meeting, lest you die, for the anointing oil of YHWH [is] on you”; and they do according to the word of Moses.
你們也不要走出會幕門口,免得你們死亡,因為上主的傅油還在你們身上。」他們就照梅瑟說的做了。
8 And YHWH speaks to Aaron, saying,
上主訓示亞郎說:「
9 “You do not drink wine and strong drink, you and your sons with you, in your going into the Tent of Meeting, and you do not die—a continuous statute throughout your generations,
你或你的兒子進入會幕時,清酒或醇酒都不可飲,免得你們死亡:這為你們世世代代是永久的法令。
10 so as to make a separation between the holy and the common, and between the unclean and the pure;
因為在聖與俗,潔與不潔之間,你們應分辨清楚,
11 and to teach the sons of Israel all the statutes which YHWH has spoken to them by the hand of Moses.”
並應教訓以色列子民,上主藉梅瑟吩附他們一切法令。」重申司祭的權利。
12 And Moses speaks to Aaron and his sons, to Eleazar and to Ithamar, who are left, “Take the present that is left from the fire-offerings of YHWH, and eat it unleavened near the altar, for it [is] most holy,
以後,梅瑟對亞郎和他尚存的兒子厄肋阿匝爾及依塔瑪爾說:「獻與上主的火祭中所剩下的素祭祭品,你們應拿來在祭壇旁吃,應吃死麵的,因為這是聖之物,
13 and you have eaten it in the holy place, for it [is] your portion, and the portion of your sons, from the fire-offerings of YHWH; for so I have been commanded.
你們在聖處吃,因為這是你和你的兒子,由獻與上主的火祭中,所獲得的權利;上主曾這樣吩附了我。
14 And you eat the breast of the wave-offering and the leg of the raised-offering in a clean place, you, and your sons, and your daughters with you; they have been given for your portion and the portion of your sons, out of the sacrifices of peace-offerings of the sons of Israel;
至於搖過的胸脯和祭過的後腿,你和你的兒子以及與你尚在一起的女兒,可在一清潔地方吃;這原是由以色列子民獻的和平祭中,給予你和你子女的權利。
15 the leg of the raised-offering, and breast of the wave-offering, besides fire-offerings of the fat, they bring in to wave [as] a wave-offering before YHWH, and it has been to you, and to your sons with you, by a continuous statute, as YHWH has commanded.”
與獻作火祭的脂肪一起所舉過的後腿和搖過的胸脯,上上主面前行過奉獻搖禮之後,都歸你和與你在一起的子女:這是你們永久的權利,照上主所吩附的。」
16 And Moses has diligently sought the goat of the sin-offering, and behold, it is burned, and he is angry against Eleazar and against Ithamar, sons of Aaron, who are left, saying,
梅色尋找那作贖罪祭的公山羊的時後,發現已經燒了;於是對亞郎尚存的兒子厄肋阿匝爾及依塔瑪爾發怒說:
17 “Why have you not eaten the sin-offering in the holy place, for it [is] most holy—and He has given it to you to take away the iniquity of the congregation, to make atonement for them before YHWH?
「為什麼你們沒有在聖處吃這贖罪祭肉﹖這原是至聖之物;上主所以給了你們,是為了消除會眾的罪過,在上主面前為他們贖罪。
18 Behold, its blood has not been brought into the holy place within; eating you eat it in the holy place, as I have commanded.”
這犧牲的血既然沒有帶到聖所裏去,你們應照我所吩附的,在聖處吃這祭肉。」
19 And Aaron speaks to Moses, “Behold, today they have brought their sin-offering and their burnt-offering near before YHWH; and [things] like these meet me, yet I have eaten a sin-offering today; is it good in the eyes of YHWH?”
亞郎對梅瑟說:「你看,他們今天在上主前奉獻了贖罪祭和全燔祭,竟有這樣的事發生在我身上! 我今天若吃了贖罪祭祭肉,上主豈能滿意﹖」
20 And Moses listens, and it is good in his eyes.
梅瑟聽了這話,也頗為滿意。
