祭司たるレビ人およびレビの支派は都てイスラエルの中に分なく產業なし彼らはヱホバの火祭の品とその產業の物を食ふべし
2 and thei schulen not take ony othir thing of the possessioun of her britheren; for the Lord hym silf is the `eritage of hem, as he spak to hem.
彼らはその兄弟の中間に產業を有じヱホバこれが產業たるたり即ちその曾て之に言たまひしが如し
3 This schal be the doom of preestis of the puple, and of hem that offren sacrifices; whether `thei offren an oxe, ether a scheep, thei schulen yyue to the preest the schuldre, and the paunche, the firste fruytis of wheete,

4 and of wyn, and of oile, and a part of wollis of the scheryng of scheep.
また汝の穀物と酒と油の初および羊の毛の初をも之にあたふべし
5 For thi Lord God chees hym of alle thi lynagis, that he stonde and mynystre to `the name of the Lord, he and hise sones, with outen ende.
其は汝の神ヱホバ汝の諸の支派の中より彼を選び出し彼とその子孫をして永くヱホバの名をもて立て奉事をなさしめたまへばなり
6 If a dekene goith out of oon of thi citees of al Israel, in which he dwellith, `and wole come and desirith the place which the Lord chees,
レビ人はイスラエルの全地の中何の處に居る者にもあれその寄寓たる汝の邑を出てヱホバの選びたま處に到るあらば

その人はヱホバの前に侍るその諸兄弟のレビ人とおなじくその神ヱホバの名をもて奉事をなすことを得べし
8 He schal take the same part of meetis, `which and othere dekenes schulen take; outakun that that is due to hym in his citee, bi `successioun ethir eritage `of fadir.
その人の得て食ふ分は彼らと同じ但しその父の遺業を賣て獲たる物はこの外に彼に屬す
9 Whanne thou hast entrid in to the lond which thi Lord God schal yyue to thee, be thou war lest thou wole sue abhomynaciouns of tho folkis;
汝の神ヱホバの汝に賜ふ池にいたるに及びて汝その國々の民の憎むべき行爲を倣ひ行ふなかれ
10 noon be foundun in thee that clensith his sone, ether his douytir, `and ledith bi the fier, ethir that axith questiouns of dyuynouris `that dyuynen aboute the auteris, and that taketh hede to dremes and chiteryng of bryddis; nethir ony wicche be,
汝らの中間にその男子女子をして火の中を通らしむる者あるべからずまた卜筮する者邪法を行なふ者禁厭する者魔術を使ふ者
11 nethir an enchauntere, `that is, that disseyueth mennus iyen that a thing seme that is not; nether a man take counsel at hem that han a feend spekynge `in the wombe, nether take counsel at false dyuynouris nethir seke of deed men the treuthe.
法印を結ぶ者憑鬼する者巫覡の業をなす者死人に詢ことをする者あるべからず
12 For the Lord hath abhomynacioun of alle these thingis, and for siche wickidnessis he schal do awei hem in thin entryng.
凡て是等の事を爲す者はヱホバこれを憎たまふ汝の神ヱホバが彼らを汝の前より逐はらひたまひしも是等の憎むべき事のありしに因てなり
13 Thou schalt be perfit and without filthe, with thi Lord God.

14 These hethen men, `the lond of whiche thou schalt welde, heren hem that worchen bi chiteryng of briddis, and false dyuynouris; forsothe thou art tauyt in other maner of thi Lord God.
汝が逐はらふ故の國々の民は邪法師卜筮師などに聽ことをなせり然ど汝には汝の神ヱホバ然する事を許したまはず
15 Thi Lord God schal reise a prophete of thi folk and of thi britheren as me, thou schalt here hym;
汝の神ヱホバ汝の中汝の兄弟の中より我のごとき一箇の預言者を汝のために興したまはん汝ら之に聽ことをすべし
16 as thou axidist of thi Lord God in Oreb, whanne the cumpany was gaderid, and thou seidist, Y schal no more here the vois of my Lord God, and Y schal no more se `this grettiste fier, lest Y die.
是まったく汝が集會の日にホレブにおいて汝の神ヱホバに求めたる所なり即ち汝言けらく我をして重てこの我神ヱホバの聲を聞しむる勿れまた重てこの大なる火を見さする勿れ恐くは我死んと
17 And the Lord seide to me, Thei spaken wel alle thingis.
是においてヱホバ我に言たまひけるは彼らの言る所は善し
18 Y schal reise to hem a prophete, lijk thee, of the myddis of her britheren, and Y schal putte my wordis in his mouth, and he schal speke to hem alle thingis, whiche I schal comaunde to him.
我かれら兄弟の中より汝のごとき一箇の預言者を彼らのために興し我言をその口に授けん我が彼に命ずる言を彼ことごとく彼らに告べし
19 Forsothe Y schal be vengere of `that man, that nyle here the wordis `of hym, whiche he schal speke in my name.
凡て彼が吾名をもて語るところの吾言に聽したがはざる者は我これを罰せん
20 `Sotheli a prophete `schal be slayn, which is bischrewid with pride, and wole speke in my name tho thingis, whiche Y comaundide not to hym, that he schulde seie, ethir bi the name of alien goddis.
但し預言者もし我が語れと命ぜざる言を吾名をもて縦肆に語りまたは他の神々の名をもて語ることを爲すならばその預言者は殺さるべし
21 That if thou answerist bi pryuy thouyt, Hou may Y vndirstonde the word, which the Lord spak not? thou schalt haue this signe,
汝あるひは心に謂ん我ら如何にしてその言のヱホバの言たまふ者にあらざるを知んと
22 `The Lord spak not this thing which thilke prophete biforseid in the name of the Lord, `and it bifallith not, but `the prophete feynede bi the pride of his soule, and therfor thou schalt not drede hym.
然ば若し預言者ありてヱホバの名をもて語ることをなすにその言就ずまた效あらざる時は是ヱホバの語りたまふ言にあらずしてその預言者が縦肆に語るところなり汝その預言者を畏るるに及ばす
