< レビ記 21 >
1 ヱホバ、モーセに告て言たまはくアロンの子等なる祭司等に告てこれに言へ民の中の死人のために身を汚す者あるべからず
And Jehovah saith unto Moses, 'Speak unto the priests, sons of Aaron, and thou hast said unto them, For [any] person [a priest] is not defiled among his people,
2 但しその骨肉の親のためすなはちその母のため父のため男子のため女子のため兄弟のため
except for his relation who [is] near unto him — for his mother, and for his father, and for his son, and for his daughter, and for his brother.
3 またその姉妹の處女にして未だ夫あらざる者のためには身を汚すも宜し
and for his sister, the virgin, who is near unto him, who hath not been to a man; for her he is defiled.
4 祭司はその民の中の長者なれば身を汚して褻たる者となるべからず
'A master [priest] doth not defile himself among his people — to pollute himself;
5 彼等は髮をそりて頭に毛なき所をつくるべからずその鬚の兩傍を損ずべからずまたその身に傷つくべからず
they do not make baldness on their head, and the corner of their beard they do not shave, and in their flesh they do not make a cutting;
6 その神に對て聖あるべくまたその神の名をけがすべからず彼等はヱホバの火祭すなはち其神の食物を献ぐる者なれば聖あるべきなり
they are holy to their God, and they pollute not the name of their God, for the fire-offerings of Jehovah, bread of their God, they are bringing near, and have been holy.
7 彼等は妓女または汚れたる女を妻に娶るべからずまた夫に出されたる女を娶るべからず其はその身ヱホバにむかひて聖ければなり
'A woman, a harlot, or polluted, they do not take, and a woman cast out from her husband they do not take, for he [is] holy to his God;
8 汝かれをもて聖者とすべし彼は汝の神ヱホバの食物を献ぐる者なればなり汝すなはちこれをもて聖者となすべし其は我ヱホバ汝らを聖別る者聖ければなり
and thou hast sanctified him, for the bread of thy God he is bringing near; he is holy to thee; for holy [am] I, Jehovah, sanctifying you.
9 祭司の女たる者淫行をなしてその身を汚さば是その父を汚すなり火をもてこれを燒べし
'And a daughter of any priest when she polluteth herself by going a-whoring — her father she is polluting; with fire she is burnt.
10 その兄弟の中灌膏を首にそそがれ職に任ぜられて祭司の長となれる者はその頭をあらはすべからずまたその衣服を裂べからず
'And the high priest of his brethren, on whose head is poured the anointing oil, and hath consecrated his hand to put on the garments, his head doth not uncover, nor rend his garments,
11 死人の所に往べからずまたその父のためにも母のためにも身を汚すべからず
nor beside any dead person doth he come; for his father and for his mother he doth not defile himself;
12 また聖所より出べからずその神の聖所を褻すべからず其はその神の任職の灌膏首にあればなり我はヱホバなり
nor from the sanctuary doth he go out, nor doth he pollute the sanctuary of his God, for the separation of the anointing oil of his God [is] on him; I [am] Jehovah.
'And he taketh a wife in her virginity;
14 寡婦休れたる婦または汚れたる婦妓女等は娶るべからず惟自己の民の中の處女を妻にめとるべし
widow, or cast out, or polluted one — a harlot — these he doth not take, but a virgin of his own people he doth take [for] a wife,
15 その民の中に自己の子孫を汚すべからずヱホバこれを聖別ればなり
and he doth not pollute his seed among his people; for I [am] Jehovah, sanctifying him.'
And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,
17 アロンに告て言へ凡そ汝の歴代の子孫の中身に疵ある者は進みよりてその神ヱホバの食物を献ぐる事を爲べからず
'Speak unto Aaron, saying, No man of thy seed to their generations in whom there is blemish doth draw near to bring near the bread of his God,
18 凡て疵ある人は進みよるべからずすなはち瞽者跛者および鼻の缺たる者成餘るところ身にある者
for no man in whom [is] blemish doth draw near — a man blind, or lame or dwarfed, or enlarged,
or a man in whom there is a breach in the foot, or a breach in the hand,
20 傴僂者侏儒目に雲膜ある者疥ある者癬ある者外腎の壞れたる者等は進みよるべからず
or hump-backed, or a dwarf, or with a mixture in his eye, or a scurvy person, or scabbed, or broken-testicled.
21 凡そ祭司アロンの子孫の中身に疵ある者は進みよりてヱホバの火祭を献ぐべからず彼は身に疵あるなれば進みよりてヱホバの食物を献ぐべからざるなり
'No man in whom is blemish (of the seed of Aaron the priest) doth come nigh to bring near the fire-offerings of Jehovah; blemish [is] in him; the bread of his God he doth not come nigh to bring near.
'Bread of his God — of the most holy things, and of the holy things — he doth eat;
23 然ど障蔽の幕に至べからずまた祭壇に近よるべからず其は身に疵あればなり斯かれわが聖所を汚すべからず其は我ヱホバこれを聖別ればなり
only, unto the vail he doth not enter, and unto the altar he doth not draw nigh; for blemish [is] in him; and he doth not pollute My sanctuaries; for I [am] Jehovah, sanctifying them.'
24 モーセすなはちアロンとその子等およびイスラエルの一切の子孫にこれを告たり
And Moses speaketh unto Aaron, and unto his sons, and unto all the sons of Israel.
