Exodus 23
1 “You shall not spread a false report. Don’t join your hand with the wicked to be a malicious witness.
不可傳播謠言；不可與惡人攜手作假見証。
2 “You shall not follow a crowd to do evil. You shall not testify in court to side with a multitude to pervert justice.
不可隨從多數以附和惡事；在爭訟的事上，不可隨從多數說歪曲正義的話。
3 You shall not favor a poor man in his cause.
在爭訟的事上，也不可偏袒弱小。
4 “If you meet your enemy’s ox or his donkey going astray, you shall surely bring it back to him again.
假使你遇見你仇人的牛或驢迷了路，應給他領回去。
5 If you see the donkey of him who hates you fallen down under his burden, don’t leave him. You shall surely help him with it.
假使你遇見你仇人的驢跌臥在重載下，不可棄而不顧，應幫助驢主卸下重載。
6 “You shall not deny justice to your poor people in their lawsuits.
你對窮人的訴訟，不可歪曲他的正義。
7 “Keep far from a false charge, and don’t kill the innocent and righteous; for I will not justify the wicked.
作偽的案件，你應戒避。不可殺無辜和正義的人，因為我決不以惡人為義人。
8 “You shall take no bribe, for a bribe blinds those who have sight and perverts the words of the righteous.
不可受賄賂，因為賄賂能使明眼人眼瞎，能顛倒正義者的言語。

10 “For six years you shall sow your land, and shall gather in its increase,
你應種地六年之久，收穫地的出產；
11 but the seventh year you shall let it rest and lie fallow, that the poor of your people may eat; and what they leave the animal of the field shall eat. In the same way, you shall deal with your vineyard and with your olive grove.
但第七年，你應讓地休息，把出產留給你百姓中的窮人吃；他們吃剩的，給野獸吃。對葡萄和橄欖園，也應這樣行。
12 “Six days you shall do your work, and on the seventh day you shall rest, that your ox and your donkey may have rest, and the son of your servant, and the alien may be refreshed.
六天內你應工作，第七天要停工，使你的牛驢休息，使你婢女的兒子和外僑都獲得喘息。
13 “Be careful to do all things that I have said to you; and don’t invoke the name of other gods or even let them be heard out of your mouth.
凡我吩咐你們的，都應遵守。你們不可提及外神的名字，決不可讓人由你口中聽到。以色列的慶節
14 “You shall observe a feast to me three times a year.
每年三次應為我舉行慶節。
15 You shall observe the feast of unleavened bread. Seven days you shall eat unleavened bread, as I commanded you, at the time appointed in the month Abib (for in it you came out of Egypt), and no one shall appear before me empty.
應遵守無酵節：照我所命的，在阿彼布月所定的日期，七天之久吃無酵餅，因為你在這個月離開了埃及。誰也不可空著手到我台前來。
16 And the feast of harvest, the first fruits of your labors, which you sow in the field; and the feast of ingathering, at the end of the year, when you gather in your labors out of the field.
又應遵守收成節，即你在田地播種勞力之後，獻初熟之果的慶節。還應遵守收藏節，即在年尾，由田地中收斂你勞力所得的慶節。
17 Three times in the year all your males shall appear before the Lord GOD.
你所有的男子一年三次應到上主台前來。
18 “You shall not offer the blood of my sacrifice with leavened bread. The fat of my feast shall not remain all night until the morning.

19 You shall bring the first of the first fruits of your ground into the house of the LORD your God. “You shall not boil a young goat in its mother’s milk.
你田中最上等的初熟之果，應獻到上主你天主的殿中；不可煮山羊羔在其母奶中。應許與訓戒
20 “Behold, I send an angel before you, to keep you by the way, and to bring you into the place which I have prepared.
看我在你面前派遣我的使者，為在路上保護你，領你到我所準備的地方。
21 Pay attention to him, and listen to his voice. Don’t provoke him, for he will not pardon your disobedience, for my name is in him.
在他面前應謹慎，聽他的話，不可違背他，不然他決不赦免你們的過犯，因為在他身上有我的名號。
22 But if you indeed listen to his voice, and do all that I speak, then I will be an enemy to your enemies, and an adversary to your adversaries.
如果你聽從他的話，作我所吩咐的一切，我要以你的仇人為仇，以你的敵人為敵。

我的使者將走在你前，領你到阿摩黎人、赫特人、培黎齊人、客納罕人、希崴人和耶步斯人那裏；我要消滅他們。
24 You shall not bow down to their gods, nor serve them, nor follow their practices, but you shall utterly overthrow them and demolish their pillars.
他們的神像，你不可朝拜，也不可事奉，也不可作那些人所作的；反之，應徹底破壞那些神像，打碎他們的神柱。

我要在你前顯示我的威嚴；凡你所到之處，我要使那裏的百姓慌亂，使你的一切仇敵見你而逃。
28 I will send the hornet before you, which will drive out the Hivite, the Canaanite, and the Hittite, from before you.
我要在你前打發黃蜂，將希威人、客納罕人和郝特人，由你面前趕走。
29 I will not drive them out from before you in one year, lest the land become desolate, and the animals of the field multiply against you.
我不在一年之內將他們由們你面前趕走，免得田地荒蕪，野獸多起來害你。
30 Little by little I will drive them out from before you, until you have increased and inherit the land.
我要漸漸將他們由你面前趕走，一直到你繁殖增多起來，能佔領那地為止。
31 I will set your border from the Red Sea even to the sea of the Philistines, and from the wilderness to the River; for I will deliver the inhabitants of the land into your hand, and you shall drive them out before you.
我要劃定你的國界，由紅海直到培勒舍特海，從曠野直到大河；並將那地的居民教在你手中，你要在他們面前趕走，
32 You shall make no covenant with them, nor with their gods.
決不可與他們和他們的神立約，
33 They shall not dwell in your land, lest they make you sin against me, for if you serve their gods, it will surely be a snare to you.”
決不准他們住在你境內，免得引你得罪我，引你事奉他們的神：這為你是一種陷阱。」
