Leviticus 10
1 [Two of] Aaron’s sons, Nadab and Abihu, took the pans in which they burned incense. They put some burning coals in them and put incense on top of the coals, but this fire was not acceptable [to Yahweh] because it was not the kind that he had commanded them to burn.
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 So suddenly a fire from Yahweh appeared and burned them up [DOU] in the presence of Yahweh.
那時由上主面前噴出火來，將他們燒死在上主面前。
3 Then Moses/I said to Aaron, “That is what Yahweh predicted. He said, ‘Those priests who come near to me, I will show them that they must (respect me/treat me as being holy); in the presence of all the people I am the one who must be honored.’” But Aaron said nothing.
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 Then Moses/I summoned Mishael and Elzaphan, who were the sons of Aaron’s uncle Uzziel, and said to them, “Take [the corpses of] your cousins outside the camp, away from the front of the Sacred Tent.”
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 So they carried the corpses, which still had their special gowns on, outside the camp, [and buried them].
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 Then Moses/I said to Aaron and his [other two] sons Eleazar and Ithamar, “[You are sad because Nadab and Abihu died, but you must act like you always do]. Do not allow the hair on your [heads] to remain uncombed, and do not tear your clothes. But your relatives and all your fellow Israelis are allowed to mourn for those whom Yahweh destroyed by fire.
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 But you must not leave the entrance of the Sacred Tent [to join those who are mourning], because if you do that, you also will die, and Yahweh will punish [MTY] all the people of Israel. Do not forget that Yahweh has set you apart [MTY] to work for him here, [and he does not want you to become defiled by touching a corpse].” So they did what Moses/I told them to do.
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 Then Yahweh said to Aaron,
上主訓示亞郎說：「
9 “You and your [two] sons [who are still alive] must not drink wine or other fermented drinks before you enter the Sacred Tent; if you do that, you will die. That is a command that you and your descendants must obey forever.
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 You must do that in order to learn what things are holy and what things are (not holy/common), and [from the things that are not holy] you must learn what things are acceptable to me and what things are not.
因為在聖與俗，潔與不潔之間，你們應分辨清楚，
11 And you must teach to the Israeli people all the laws that I gave to the Israeli people by telling them to 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 Moses/I said to Aaron and his two sons who were still alive, Eleazar and Ithamar, “Take the offering made from grain that is left after a portion of it has been offered to Yahweh to be burned, and eat it alongside the altar. [It should not be eaten elsewhere], because it is very 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 Eat it in a holy place; it is the share for you and your sons from the offerings that were burned; I have commanded that it be your share.
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 But you and your sons and daughters are permitted to eat the breast and the thigh that were lifted up in front of Yahweh. Eat them in any place that is (holy/acceptable to him). They have been given to you and your descendants as your share of the offerings to enable the Israelis to maintain fellowship [with Yahweh].
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 thigh and the breast that were lifted up in front of Yahweh must be brought with the portions of fat to be burned, to be lifted up in his presence. They will be the regular share for you and your descendants, as Yahweh 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 When Moses/I inquired about the goat that had been sacrificed to enable the people to be forgiven by Yahweh for the sins they had committed, he/I found out that it had been completely burned. So he/I was angry with Eleazar and Ithamar and asked them,
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 did you not eat near the Sacred Tent the meat of the offering for sin? It was very holy, and it was given to you to enable the Israeli people to no longer be guilty for their sins and to be forgiven for their sins.
「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 Since its blood was not taken into the holy place inside the Sacred Tent, you should have eaten the [meat of] the goat near the Sacred Tent, as I 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 Aaron replied to Moses/me, “Today the people brought to Yahweh their offering to be forgiven for the sins they had committed, and the offering to be completely burned, [and surely that pleased Yahweh], but [think about the terrible thing] that happened to my other two sons! Would [RHQ] Yahweh have been pleased if I had eaten some of the offering to cause the people to become acceptable to God?”
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 When Moses/I heard that, he/I was satisfied.
梅瑟聽了這話，也頗為滿意。
