< 利未記 10 >

1 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。
And the two sons of Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, each took his censer and put fire in it, and laid incense on it, and offered strange fire before the LORD, which he had not commanded them.
2 那時由上主面前噴出火來,將他們燒死在上主面前。
And fire came forth from before the LORD, and devoured them, and they died before the LORD.
3 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。
Then Moses said to Aaron, "This is what the LORD spoke of, saying, 'I will show myself holy to those who come near me, and before all the people I will be glorified.'" Aaron held his peace.
4 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!」
Moses called Mishael and Elzaphan, the sons of Uzziel the uncle of Aaron, and said to them, "Draw near, carry your brothers from before the sanctuary out of the camp."
5 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。
So they drew near, and carried them in their coats out of the camp, as Moses had said.
6 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。
Moses said to Aaron, and to Eleazar and to Ithamar, his sons, "Do not let the hair of your heads go loose, neither tear your clothes; that you do not die, and that he not be angry with all the congregation: but let your brothers, the whole house of Israel, bewail the burning which the LORD has kindled.
7 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。
You shall not go out from the door of the Tent of Meeting, lest you die; for the anointing oil of the LORD is on you." They did according to the word of Moses.
8 上主訓示亞郎說:「
The LORD spoke to Aaron, saying,
9 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。
"Drink no wine nor strong drink, you, nor your sons with you, when you go into the Tent of Meeting, that you do not die: it shall be a statute forever throughout your generations:
10 因為在聖與俗,潔與不潔之間,你們應分辨清楚,
and that you are to make a distinction between the holy and the common, and between the unclean and the clean;
11 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。
and that you are to teach the children of Israel all the statutes which the LORD has spoken to them by Moses."
12 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,
Moses spoke to Aaron, and to Eleazar and to Ithamar, his sons who were left, "Take the meal offering that remains of the offerings of the LORD made by fire, and eat it without yeast beside the altar; for it is most holy;
13 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。
and you shall eat it in a holy place, because it is your portion, and your sons' portion, of the offerings of the LORD made by fire: for so I am commanded.
14 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。
The waved breast and the heaved thigh you shall eat in a clean place, you, and your sons, and your daughters with you: for they are given as your portion, and your sons' portion, out of the sacrifices of the peace offerings of the children of Israel.
15 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。」
The heaved thigh and the waved breast they shall bring with the offerings made by fire of the fat, to wave it for a wave offering before the LORD: and it shall be yours, and your sons' with you, as a portion forever; as the LORD has commanded."
16 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:
Moses diligently inquired about the goat of the sin offering, and, look, it was burned: and he was angry with Eleazar and with Ithamar, the sons of Aaron who were left, saying,
17 「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。
"Why haven't you eaten the sin offering in the place of the sanctuary, seeing it is most holy, and he has given it you to bear the iniquity of the congregation, to make atonement for them before the LORD?
18 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。」
Look, its blood was not brought into the inner part of the sanctuary: you certainly should have eaten it in the sanctuary, as I commanded."
19 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﹖」
Aaron spoke to Moses, "Look, this day they have offered their sin offering and their burnt offering before the LORD; and such things as these have happened to me: and if I had eaten the sin offering today, would it have been pleasing in the sight of the LORD?"
20 梅瑟聽了這話,也頗為滿意。
When Moses heard that, it was pleasing in his sight.
