< Leviticus 11 >
1 And YHWH speaks to Moses and to Aaron, saying to them,
耶和華對摩西、亞倫說:
2 “Speak to the sons of Israel, saying, This [is] the beast which you eat out of all the beasts which [are] on the earth:
「你們曉諭以色列人說,在地上一切走獸中可吃的乃是這些:
3 any dividing a hoof, and cleaving the cleft of the hooves, bringing up the cud, among the beasts—you eat it.
凡蹄分兩瓣、倒嚼的走獸,你們都可以吃。
4 Only, this you do not eat, of those bringing up the cud, and of those dividing the hoof: the camel, though it is bringing up the cud, yet the hoof is not dividing—it [is] unclean to you;
但那倒嚼或分蹄之中不可吃的乃是:駱駝-因為倒嚼不分蹄,就與你們不潔淨;
5 and the hyrax, though it is bringing up the cud, yet the hoof is not divided—it [is] unclean to you;
沙番-因為倒嚼不分蹄,就與你們不潔淨;
6 and the hare, though it is bringing up the cud, yet the hoof has not divided—it [is] unclean to you;
觠子-因為倒嚼不分蹄,就與你們不潔淨;
7 and the sow, though it is dividing the hoof, and cleaving the cleft of the hoof, yet it does not bring up the cud—it [is] unclean to you.
豬-因為蹄分兩瓣,卻不倒嚼,就與你們不潔淨。
8 You do not eat of their flesh, and you do not come against their carcass—they [are] unclean to you.
這些獸的肉,你們不可吃;死的,你們不可摸,都與你們不潔淨。
9 This you eat of all which [are] in the waters: anything that has fins and scales in the waters, in the seas, and in the brooks, them you eat;
「水中可吃的乃是這些:凡在水裏、海裏、河裏、有翅有鱗的,都可以吃。
10 and anything that does not have fins and scales in the seas, and in the brooks, of any teeming creature of the waters, and of any creature which lives, which [is] in the waters—they [are] an abomination to you;
凡在海裏、河裏,並一切水裏游動的活物,無翅無鱗的,你們都當以為可憎。
11 indeed, they are an abomination to you; you do not eat of their flesh, and you detest their carcass.
這些無翅無鱗、以為可憎的,你們不可吃牠的肉;死的也當以為可憎。
12 Anything that does not have fins and scales in the waters—it [is] an abomination to you.
凡水裏無翅無鱗的,你們都當以為可憎。
13 And these you detest of the bird—they are not eaten, they [are] an abomination: the eagle, and the bearded vulture, and the osprey,
「雀鳥中你們當以為可憎、不可吃的乃是:鵰、狗頭鵰、紅頭鵰、
14 and the kite, and the falcon after its kind,
鷂鷹、小鷹與其類;
15 every raven after its kind,
烏鴉與其類;
16 and the ostrich, and the nightjar [[or male ostrich]], and the seagull, and the hawk after its kind,
鴕鳥、夜鷹、魚鷹、鷹與其類;
17 and the little owl, and the cormorant, and the great owl,
鴞鳥、鸕鶿、貓頭鷹、
18 and the waterhen, and the pelican, and the Egyptian vulture,
角鴟、鵜鶘、禿鵰、
19 and the stork, the heron after its kind, and the hoopoe, and the bat.
鸛、鷺鷥與其類;戴鵀與蝙蝠。
20 Every teeming creature which is flying, which is going on four [legs]—it [is] an abomination to you.
「凡有翅膀用四足爬行的物,你們都當以為可憎。
21 Only, this you eat of any teeming thing which is flying, which is going on four, which has legs above its feet, to move with them on the earth;
只是有翅膀用四足爬行的物中,有足有腿,在地上蹦跳的,你們還可以吃。
22 these of them you eat: the locust after its kind, and the bald locust after its kind, and the cricket after its kind, and the grasshopper after its kind;
其中有蝗蟲、螞蚱、蟋蟀與其類;蚱蜢與其類;這些你們都可以吃。
23 and every teeming thing which is flying, which has four feet—it [is] an abomination to you.
但是有翅膀有四足的爬物,你們都當以為可憎。
24 And you are made unclean by these; anyone who is coming against their carcass is unclean until the evening;
「這些都能使你們不潔淨。凡摸了死的,必不潔淨到晚上。
25 and anyone who is lifting up of their carcass washes his garments, and has been unclean until the evening—
凡拿了死的,必不潔淨到晚上,並要洗衣服。
26 even every beast which is dividing the hoof, and is not cloven-footed, and is not bringing up the cud—they [are] unclean to you; anyone who is coming against them is unclean.
凡走獸分蹄不成兩瓣、也不倒嚼的,是與你們不潔淨;凡摸了的就不潔淨。
27 And anything going on its paws, among all the beasts which are going on four—they [are] unclean to you; anyone who is coming against their carcass is unclean until the evening;
凡四足的走獸,用掌行走的,是與你們不潔淨;摸其屍的,必不潔淨到晚上。
28 and he who is lifting up their carcass washes his garments, and has been unclean until the evening—they [are] unclean to you.
拿其屍的,必不潔淨到晚上,並要洗衣服。這些是與你們不潔淨的。
29 And this [is] the unclean to you among the teeming things which are teeming on the earth: the weasel, and the muroid, and the tortoise [[or large lizard]] after its kind,
「地上爬物與你們不潔淨的乃是這些:鼬鼠、鼫鼠、蜥蜴與其類;
30 and the gecko [[or ferret]], and the chameleon, and the lizard, and the snail, and the mole;
壁虎、龍子、守宮、蛇醫、蝘蜓。
31 these [are] the unclean to you among all which are teeming; anyone who is coming against them in their death is unclean until the evening.
這些爬物都是與你們不潔淨的。在牠死了以後,凡摸了的,必不潔淨到晚上。
32 And anything on which anyone of them falls, in their death, is unclean, of any vessel of wood or garment or skin or sack, any vessel in which work is done is brought into water, and has been unclean until the evening, then it has been clean;
其中死了的,掉在甚麼東西上,這東西就不潔淨,無論是木器、衣服、皮子、口袋,不拘是做甚麼工用的器皿,須要放在水中,必不潔淨到晚上,到晚上才潔淨了。
33 and any earthen vessel, into the midst of which [any] one of them falls, all that [is] in its midst is unclean, and you break it.
若有死了掉在瓦器裏的,其中不拘有甚麼,就不潔淨,你們要把這瓦器打破了。
34 Of all the food which is eaten, that on which comes [such] water, is unclean, and all drink which is drunk in any [such] vessel is unclean;
其中一切可吃的食物,沾水的就不潔淨,並且那樣器皿中一切可喝的,也必不潔淨。
35 and anything on which [any] of their carcass falls is unclean; oven or double pots, it is broken down, they [are] unclean, indeed, they are unclean to you.
其中已死的,若有一點掉在甚麼物件上,那物件就不潔淨,不拘是爐子,是鍋臺,就要打碎,都不潔淨,也必與你們不潔淨。
36 Only, a fountain or pit, a collection of water, is clean, but that which is coming against their carcass is unclean;
但是泉源或是聚水的池子仍是潔淨;惟挨了那死的,就不潔淨。
37 and when [any] of their carcass falls on any sown seed which is sown—it [is] clean;
若是死的,有一點掉在要種的子粒上,子粒仍是潔淨;
38 and when water is put on the seed, and [any] of its carcass has fallen on it—it [is] unclean to you.
若水已經澆在子粒上,那死的有一點掉在上頭,這子粒就與你們不潔淨。
39 And when any of the beasts which are for food for you dies, he who is coming against its carcass is unclean until the evening;
「你們可吃的走獸若是死了,有人摸牠,必不潔淨到晚上;
40 and he who is eating of its carcass washes his garments, and has been unclean until the evening; and he who is lifting up its carcass washes his garments, and has been unclean until the evening.
有人吃那死了的走獸,必不潔淨到晚上,並要洗衣服;拿了死走獸的,必不潔淨到晚上,並要洗衣服。
41 And every teeming thing which is teeming on the earth is an abomination, it is not eaten;
「凡地上的爬物是可憎的,都不可吃。
42 anything going on the belly, and any going on four, to every multiplier of feet, to every teeming thing which is teeming on the earth—you do not eat them, for they [are] an abomination;
凡用肚子行走的和用四足行走的,或是有許多足的,就是一切爬在地上的,你們都不可吃,因為是可憎的。
43 you do not make yourselves abominable with any teeming thing which is teeming, nor do you make yourselves unclean with them, so that you have been unclean with them.
你們不可因甚麼爬物使自己成為可憎的,也不可因這些使自己不潔淨,以致染了污穢。
44 For I [am] your God YHWH, and you have sanctified yourselves, and you have been holy, for I [am] holy; and you do not defile your persons with any teeming thing which is creeping on the earth;
我是耶和華-你們的上帝;所以你們要成為聖潔,因為我是聖潔的。你們也不可在地上的爬物污穢自己。
45 for I [am] YHWH who am bringing you up out of the land of Egypt to become your God; and you have been holy, for I [am] holy.
我是把你們從埃及地領出來的耶和華,要作你們的上帝;所以你們要聖潔,因為我是聖潔的。」
46 This [is] a law of the beasts, and of the bird, and of every living creature which is moving in the waters, and of every creature which is teeming on the earth,
這是走獸、飛鳥,和水中游動的活物,並地上爬物的條例。
47 to make separation between the unclean and the pure, and between the beast that is eaten, and the beast that is not eaten.”
要把潔淨的和不潔淨的,可吃的與不可吃的活物,都分別出來。
