Deuteronomy 13
1 If a prophet or a dreamer of dreams arises amongst you, and he gives you a sign or a wonder,
“你们中间若有先知或是做梦的起来，向你显个神迹奇事，
2 and the sign or the wonder comes to pass, of which he spoke to you, saying, “Let’s go after other gods” (which you have not known) “and let’s serve them,”
对你说：‘我们去随从你素来所不认识的别神，事奉它吧。’他所显的神迹奇事虽有应验，
3 you shall not listen to the words of that prophet, or to that dreamer of dreams; for the LORD your God is testing you, to know whether you love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul.
你也不可听那先知或是那做梦之人的话；因为这是耶和华—你们的 神试验你们，要知道你们是尽心尽性爱耶和华—你们的 神不是。
4 You shall walk after the LORD your God, fear him, keep his commandments, and obey his voice. You shall serve him, and cling to him.
你们要顺从耶和华—你们的 神，敬畏他，谨守他的诫命，听从他的话，事奉他，专靠他。
5 That prophet, or that dreamer of dreams, shall be put to death, because he has spoken rebellion against the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt and redeemed you out of the house of bondage, to draw you aside out of the way which the LORD your God commanded you to walk in. So you shall remove the evil from amongst you.
那先知或是那做梦的既用言语叛逆那领你们出埃及地、救赎你脱离为奴之家的耶和华—你们的 神，要勾引你离开耶和华—你 神所吩咐你行的道，你便要将他治死。这样，就把那恶从你们中间除掉。
6 If your brother, the son of your mother, or your son, or your daughter, or the wife of your bosom, or your friend who is as your own soul, entices you secretly, saying, “Let’s go and serve other gods”—which you have not known, you, nor your fathers;
“你的同胞弟兄，或是你的儿女，或是你怀中的妻，或是如同你性命的朋友，若暗中引诱你，说：‘我们不如去事奉你和你列祖素来所不认识的别神—
7 of the gods of the peoples who are around you, near to you, or far off from you, from the one end of the earth even to the other end of the earth—
是你四围列国的神。’无论是离你近，离你远，从地这边到地那边的神，
8 you shall not consent to him nor listen to him; neither shall your eye pity him, neither shall you spare, neither shall you conceal him;
你不可依从他，也不可听从他，眼不可顾惜他。你不可怜恤他，也不可遮庇他，
9 but you shall surely kill him. Your hand shall be first on him to put him to death, and afterwards the hands of all the people.
总要杀他；你先下手，然后众民也下手，将他治死。
10 You shall stone him to death with stones, because he has sought to draw you away from the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
要用石头打死他，因为他想要勾引你离开那领你出埃及地为奴之家的耶和华—你的 神。
11 All Israel shall hear, and fear, and shall not do any more wickedness like this amongst you.
以色列众人都要听见害怕，就不敢在你们中间再行这样的恶了。
12 If you hear about one of your cities, which the LORD your God gives you to dwell there, that
“在耶和华—你 神所赐你居住的各城中，你若听人说，有些匪类从你们中间的一座城出来勾引本城的居民，说：‘我们不如去事奉你们素来所不认识的别神’；
13 certain wicked fellows have gone out from amongst you and have drawn away the inhabitants of their city, saying, “Let’s go and serve other gods,” which you have not known,
14 then you shall enquire, investigate, and ask diligently. Behold, if it is true, and the thing certain, that such abomination was done amongst you,
你就要探听，查究，细细地访问，果然是真，准有这可憎恶的事行在你们中间，
15 you shall surely strike the inhabitants of that city with the edge of the sword, destroying it utterly, with all that is therein and its livestock, with the edge of the sword.
你必要用刀杀那城里的居民，把城里所有的，连牲畜，都用刀杀尽。
16 You shall gather all its plunder into the middle of its street, and shall burn with fire the city, with all of its plunder, to the LORD your God. It shall be a heap forever. It shall not be built again.
你从那城里所夺的财物都要堆积在街市上，用火将城和其内所夺的财物都在耶和华—你 神面前烧尽；那城就永为荒堆，不可再建造。
17 Nothing of the devoted thing shall cling to your hand, that the LORD may turn from the fierceness of his anger and show you mercy, and have compassion on you and multiply you, as he has sworn to your fathers,
那当毁灭的物连一点都不可粘你的手。你要听从耶和华—你 神的话，遵守我今日所吩咐你的一切诫命，行耶和华—你 神眼中看为正的事，耶和华就必转意，不发烈怒，恩待你，怜恤你，照他向你列祖所起的誓使你人数增多。”
18 when you listen to the LORD your God’s voice, to keep all his commandments which I command you today, to do that which is right in the LORD your God’s eyes.
