< Numbers 18 >

1 And YHWH says to Aaron, “You, and your sons, and the house of your father with you, bear the iniquity of the sanctuary; and you and your sons with you 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 your brothers, the tribe of Levi, the tribe of your father, bring near with you, and they are joined to you, and serve you, even you and your sons with you, before the Tent 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 have kept your charge, and the charge of all the tent; only, they do not come near to the vessels of the holy place and to the altar, and they do 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 have been joined to you and have kept the charge of the Tent of Meeting for all the service of the tent; and a stranger does not come near to 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 you have kept the charge of the holy place and the charge of the altar, and there is no more wrath against the sons 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, have taken your brothers the Levites from the midst of the sons of Israel; they are a gift given to you by YHWH to do the service of the Tent of Meeting;
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 you and your sons with you keep your priesthood for everything of the altar and within the veil, and you have served; I make your priesthood a gift [for] service; and the stranger who is coming near is 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 YHWH speaks to Aaron: “And I, behold, have given to you the charge of My raised-offerings, of all the hallowed things of the sons of Israel—I have given them to you and to your sons for the anointing, by a continuous statute.
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 is yours from the most holy things, from the fire: all their offering, of all their present, and of all their sin-offering, and of all their guilt-offering, which they give back to Me, is most holy to you and to your 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 you eat it among the most holy things; every male eats it; it is holy to you.
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 [is] yours: the raised-offering of their gift, with all the wave-offerings of the sons of Israel; I have given them to you, and to your sons, and to your daughters with you, by a continuous statute; every clean one in your house eats it;
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 the oil, and all the best of the new wine, and wheat—their first-[fruits] which they give to YHWH—I have given them to you.
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-fruits of all that [is] in their land, which they bring to YHWH, are yours; every clean one in your house eats it;
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 devoted thing in Israel is yours;
以色列中一切永献的都必归与你。
15 everyone opening a womb of all flesh which they bring near to YHWH, among man and among beast, is yours; only, you certainly ransom the firstborn of man, and you ransom the firstling of the unclean beast.
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 their ransomed ones from a son of a month, you ransom with your valuation [for] five shekels of silver, by the shekel of the holy place; it [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 Only, the firstling of a cow, or the firstling of a sheep, or the firstling of a goat, you do not ransom, they [are] holy: you sprinkle their blood on the altar, and you make incense of their fat [as] a fire-offering of refreshing fragrance to YHWH;
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 is yours, as the breast of the wave-offering and as the right leg are yours.
它的肉必归你,像被摇的胸、被举的右腿归你一样。
19 All the raised-offerings of the holy things, which the sons of Israel lift up to YHWH, I have given to you, and to your sons, and to your daughters with you, by a continuous statute—a covenant of salt; it [is] continuous before YHWH to you and to your seed with you.”
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 YHWH says to Aaron, “You do not inherit in their land, and you do not have a portion in their midst: I [am] your portion and your inheritance in the midst of the sons 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 sons of Levi, behold, have given all the tenth in Israel for inheritance in exchange for their service which they are serving—the service of the Tent of Meeting.
“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 sons of Israel no longer come near to the Tent of Meeting, to bear sin, to die,
从今以后,以色列人不可挨近会幕,免得他们担罪而死。
23 and the Levites have done the service of the Tent of Meeting, and they bear their iniquity; [it is] a continuous statute throughout your generations that they have no inheritance in the midst of the sons of Israel;
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 tithe of the sons of Israel which they lift up to YHWH, a raised-offering, I have given to the Levites for inheritance; therefore I have said of them, They have no inheritance in the midst of the sons of Israel.”
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 YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
耶和华吩咐摩西说:
26 “And you speak to the Levites, and you have said to them: When you take the tithe from the sons of Israel which I have given to you from them for your inheritance, then you have lifted up the raised-offering of YHWH from it, a tithe 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 raised-offering has been reckoned to you as grain from the threshing-floor and as the fullness from the wine-vat;
这举祭要算为你们场上的谷,又如满酒榨的酒。
28 so you lift up—you also—the raised-offering of YHWH from all your tithes which you receive from the sons of Israel; and you have given the raised-offering of YHWH from it 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 out of all your gifts you lift up every raised-offering of YHWH, out of all its fat—its hallowed part—out of it.
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 you have said to them: In your lifting up its fat out of it, then it has been reckoned to the Levites as increase of a threshing-floor and as increase of a wine-vat;
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 you have eaten it in every place, you and your households, for it [is] your hire in exchange for your service in the Tent of Meeting;
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 you bear no sin for it in your lifting up its fat out of it, but you do not defile the holy things of the sons of Israel, and you do not 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。”
