Leviticus 21
1 The LORD said to Moses, "Speak to the cohanim, the sons of Aaron, and say to them, 'A cohen shall not defile himself for the dead among his people;
耶和华对摩西说：“你告诉亚伦子孙作祭司的说：祭司不可为民中的死人沾染自己，
2 except for his relatives that are near to him: for his mother, for his father, for his son, for his daughter, for his brother,
除非为他骨肉之亲的父母、儿女、弟兄，
3 and for his virgin sister who is near to him, who has had no husband; for her he may defile himself.
和未曾出嫁、作处女的姊妹，才可以沾染自己。
4 He shall not defile himself, being a chief man among his people, to profane himself.
祭司既在民中为首，就不可从俗沾染自己。
5 "'They shall not shave their heads, neither shall they shave off the corners of their beards, nor make any cuttings in their flesh.
不可使头光秃；不可剃除胡须的周围，也不可用刀划身。
6 They shall be holy to their God, and not profane the name of their God; for they offer the offerings of the LORD made by fire, the bread of their God; therefore they shall be holy.
要归 神为圣，不可亵渎 神的名；因为耶和华的火祭，就是 神的食物，是他们献的，所以他们要成为圣。
7 "'They shall not marry a woman who is a prostitute, or profane; neither shall they marry a woman divorced from her husband: for he is holy to his God.
不可娶妓女或被污的女人为妻，也不可娶被休的妇人为妻，因为祭司是归 神为圣。
8 You shall sanctify him therefore; for he offers the bread of your God: he shall be holy to you: for I the LORD, who sanctify you, am holy.
所以你要使他成圣，因为他奉献你 神的食物；你要以他为圣，因为我—使你们成圣的耶和华—是圣的。
9 "'The daughter of any cohen, if she profanes herself by playing the prostitute, she profanes her father: she shall be burned with fire.
祭司的女儿若行淫辱没自己，就辱没了父亲，必用火将她焚烧。
10 "'He who is the cohen hagadol among his brothers, upon whose head the anointing oil is poured, and that is consecrated to put on the garments, shall not let the hair of his head hang loose, nor tear his clothes;
“在弟兄中作大祭司、头上倒了膏油、又承接圣职、穿了圣衣的，不可蓬头散发，也不可撕裂衣服。
11 neither shall he go in to any dead body, nor defile himself for his father, or for his mother;
不可挨近死尸，也不可为父母沾染自己。
12 neither shall he go out of the sanctuary, nor profane the sanctuary of his God; for the crown of the anointing oil of his God is upon him. I am the LORD.
不可出圣所，也不可亵渎 神的圣所，因为 神膏油的冠冕在他头上。我是耶和华。
13 "'He shall take a wife in her virginity.
他要娶处女为妻。
14 A widow, or one divorced, or a woman who has been defiled, or a prostitute, these he shall not marry: but a virgin of his own people shall he take as a wife.
寡妇或是被休的妇人，或是被污为妓的女人，都不可娶；只可娶本民中的处女为妻。
15 He shall not profane his offspring among his people: for I am the LORD who sanctifies him.'"
不可在民中辱没他的儿女，因为我是叫他成圣的耶和华。”
16 The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
耶和华对摩西说：
17 "Say to Aaron, 'None of your descendants throughout their generations who has a blemish, may approach to offer the bread of his God.
“你告诉亚伦说：你世世代代的后裔，凡有残疾的，都不可近前来献他 神的食物。
18 For whatever man he is that has a blemish, he shall not draw near: a blind man, or a lame, or he who has a flat nose, or any deformity,
因为凡有残疾的，无论是瞎眼的、瘸腿的、塌鼻子的、肢体有余的、
19 or a man who has an injured foot, or an injured hand,
折脚折手的、
20 or hunchbacked, or a dwarf, or one who has a defect in his eye, or an itching disease, or scabs, or who has damaged testicles;
驼背的、矮矬的、眼睛有毛病的、长癣的、长疥的，或是损坏肾子的，都不可近前来。
21 no man of the descendants of Aaron the cohen, who has a blemish, shall come near to present offerings to your God made by fire. Since he has a blemish, he shall not come near to offer the bread of his God.
祭司亚伦的后裔，凡有残疾的，都不可近前来，将火祭献给耶和华。他有残疾，不可近前来献 神的食物。
22 He shall eat the bread of his God, both of the most holy, and of the holy.
神的食物，无论是圣的，至圣的，他都可以吃。
23 He shall not come near to the veil, nor come near to the altar, because he has a blemish; that he may not profane my sanctuaries, for I am the LORD who sanctifies them.'"
但不可进到幔子前，也不可就近坛前；因为他有残疾，免得亵渎我的圣所。我是叫他成圣的耶和华。”
24 So Moses spoke to Aaron, and to his sons, and to all the children of Israel.
于是，摩西晓谕亚伦和亚伦的子孙，并以色列众人。
