申命記 16

1 「你要注意亞筆月，向耶和華－你的上帝守逾越節，因為耶和華－你的上帝在亞筆月夜間領你出埃及。

Observe the month of Abib, and keep the Passover to Jehovah thy God, for in the month of Abib Jehovah thy God brought thee forth out of Egypt by night.

2 你當在耶和華所選擇要立為他名的居所，從牛群羊群中，將逾越節的祭牲獻給耶和華－你的上帝。

And thou shall sacrifice the Passover to Jehovah thy God, of the flock and the herd, in the place which Jehovah shall choose to cause his name to dwell there.

3 你吃這祭牲，不可吃有酵的餅；七日之內要吃無酵餅，就是困苦餅－你本是急忙出了埃及地－要叫你一生一世記念你從埃及地出來的日子。

Thou shall eat no leavened bread with it. Seven days thou shall eat unleavened bread with it, even the bread of affliction, for thou came forth out of the land of Egypt in haste, that thou may remember the day when thou came forth out of the land of Egypt all the days of thy life.

4 在你四境之內，七日不可見麵酵，頭一日晚上所獻的肉，一點不可留到早晨。

And there shall be no leaven seen with thee in all thy borders seven days. Neither shall any of the flesh, which thou sacrifice the first day at evening, remain all night until the morning.

5 在耶和華－你上帝所賜的各城中，你不可獻逾越節的祭；

Thou may not sacrifice the Passover within any of thy gates, which Jehovah thy God gives thee,

6 只當在耶和華－你上帝所選擇要立為他名的居所，晚上日落的時候，乃是你出埃及的時候，獻逾越節的祭。

but at the place which Jehovah thy God shall choose to cause his name to dwell in, there thou shall sacrifice the Passover at evening, at the going down of the sun, at the season that thou came forth out of Egypt.

7 當在耶和華－你上帝所選擇的地方把肉烤了吃，次日早晨就回到你的帳棚去。

And thou shall roast and eat it in the place which Jehovah thy God shall choose, and thou shall turn in the morning, and go to thy tents.

8 你要吃無酵餅六日，第七日要向耶和華－你的上帝守嚴肅會，不可做工。」

Six days thou shall eat unleavened bread, and on the seventh day shall be a solemn assembly to Jehovah thy God. Thou shall do no work.

9 「你要計算七七日：從你開鐮收割禾稼時算起，共計七七日。

Thou shall number to thee seven weeks. From the time thou begin to put the sickle to the standing grain thou shall begin to number seven weeks.

10 你要照耶和華－你上帝所賜你的福，手裏拿着甘心祭，獻在耶和華－你的上帝面前，守七七節。

And thou shall keep the feast of weeks to Jehovah thy God with a tribute of a freewill offering from thy hand, which thou shall give, according as Jehovah thy God blesses thee.

11 你和你兒女、僕婢，並住在你城裏的利未人，以及在你們中間寄居的與孤兒寡婦，都要在耶和華－你上帝所選擇立為他名的居所，在耶和華－你的上帝面前歡樂。

And thou shall rejoice before Jehovah thy God, thou, and thy son, and thy daughter, and thy man-servant, and thy maid-servant, and the Levite who is within thy gates, and the sojourner, and the fatherless, and the widow, who are in the midst of thee, in the place which Jehovah thy God shall choose to cause his name to dwell there,

12 你也要記念你在埃及作過奴僕。你要謹守遵行這些律例。」

and thou shall remember that thou were a bondman in Egypt. And thou shall observe and do these statutes.

13 「你把禾場的穀、酒醡的酒收藏以後，就要守住棚節七日。

Thou shall keep the feast of tabernacles seven days after thou have gathered in from thy threshing-floor and from thy winepress.

14 守節的時候，你和你兒女、僕婢，並住在你城裏的利未人，以及寄居的與孤兒寡婦，都要歡樂。

And thou shall rejoice in thy feast, thou, and thy son, and thy daughter, and thy man-servant, and thy maid-servant, and the Levite, and the sojourner, and the fatherless, and the widow, who are within thy gates.

15 在耶和華所選擇的地方，你當向耶和華－你的上帝守節七日；因為耶和華－你上帝在你一切的土產上和你手裏所辦的事上要賜福與你，你就非常地歡樂。

Seven days thou shall keep a feast to Jehovah thy God in the place which Jehovah shall choose, because Jehovah thy God will bless thee in all thine increase, and in all the work of thy hands, and thou shall be altogether joyful.

16 你一切的男丁要在除酵節、七七節、住棚節，一年三次，在耶和華－你上帝所選擇的地方朝見他，卻不可空手朝見。

Three times in a year all thy males shall appear before Jehovah thy God in the place which he shall choose: in the feast of unleavened bread, and in the feast of weeks, and in the feast of tabernacles. And they shall not appear before Jehovah empty.

17 各人要按自己的力量，照耶和華－你上帝所賜的福分，奉獻禮物。」

Every man shall give as he is able, according to the blessing of Jehovah thy God which he has given thee.

18 「你要在耶和華－你上帝所賜的各城裏，按着各支派設立審判官和官長。他們必按公義的審判判斷百姓。

Thou shall make judges and officers for thee in all thy gates, which Jehovah thy God gives thee, according to thy tribes, and they shall judge the people with righteous judgment.

19 不可屈枉正直；不可看人的外貌。也不可受賄賂；因為賄賂能叫智慧人的眼變瞎了，又能顛倒義人的話。

Thou shall not distort justice. Thou shall not respect persons, neither shall thou take a bribe, for a bribe blinds the eyes of the wise, and perverts the words of the righteous.

20 你要追求至公至義，好叫你存活，承受耶和華－你上帝所賜你的地。

Thou shall follow that which is altogether just, that thou may live, and inherit the land which Jehovah thy God gives thee.

21 「你為耶和華－你的上帝築壇，不可在壇旁栽甚麼樹木作為木偶。

Thou shall not plant for thee an Asherah of any kind of tree beside the altar of Jehovah thy God, which thou shall make for thee.

22 也不可為自己設立柱像；這是耶和華－你上帝所恨惡的。

Neither shall thou set up a pillar for thee, which Jehovah thy God hates.
