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 new [corn], and thou shalt sacrifice the passover to the Lord thy God; because in the month of new corn thou camest 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 shalt sacrifice the passover to the Lord thy God, sheep and oxen in the place which the Lord thy God shall choose to have his name called upon it.

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 shalt not eat leaven with it; seven days shalt thou eat unleavened [bread] with it, bread of affliction, because ye came forth out of Egypt in haste; that ye may remember the day of your coming forth out of the land of Egypt all the days of your 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。

Leaven shall not be seen with thee in all thy borders for seven days, and there shall not be left of the flesh which thou shalt sacrifice at even on the first day 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 shalt not have power to sacrifice the passover in any of the cities, which the Lord 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 in the place which the Lord thy God shall choose, to have his name called there, thou shalt sacrifice the passover at even at the setting of the sun, at the time when thou camest 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 shalt boil and roast and eat it in the place, which the Lord thy God shall choose; and thou shalt return in the morning, and go to thy house.

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 shalt thou eat unleavened bread, and on the seventh day is a holiday, a feast to the Lord thy God: thou shalt not do in it any work, save what must be done by any one.

9 「你要計算七七日：從你開鐮收割禾稼時算起，共計七七日。

Seven weeks shalt thou number to thyself; when thou hast begun [to put] the sickle to the corn, thou shalt 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 shalt keep the feast of weeks to the Lord thy God, accordingly as thy hand has power in as many things as the Lord thy God shall give 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 shalt rejoice before the Lord thy God, thou and thy son, and thy daughter, thy man-servant and thy maid-servant, and the Levite, and the stranger, and the orphan, and the widow which dwells among you, in whatsoever place the Lord thy God shall choose, that his name should be called 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 shalt remember that thou wast a servant in the land of Egypt, and thou shalt observe and do these commands.

13 「你把禾場的穀、酒醡的酒收藏以後，就要守住棚節七日。

Thou shalt keep for thyself the feast of tabernacles seven days, when thou gatherest in [thy produce] from thy corn-floor and thy wine-press.

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 shalt rejoice in thy feast, thou, and thy son, and thy daughter, thy man-servant, and thy maid-servant, and the Levite, and the stranger, and the orphan, and the widow that is in thy cities.

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 shalt thou keep a feast to the Lord thy God in the place which the Lord thy God shall choose for himself; and if the Lord thy God shall bless thee in all thy fruits, and in every work of thy hands, then thou shalt rejoice.

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 the year shall all thy males appear before the Lord thy God in the place which the Lord shall choose in the feast of unleavened bread, and in the feast of weeks, and in the feast of tabernacles: thou shalt not appear before the Lord thy God 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。」

Each one according to his ability, according to the blessing of the Lord 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 shalt make for thyself judges and officers in thy cities, which the Lord thy God gives thee in [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。

they shall not wrest judgment, nor favour persons, nor receive a gift; for gifts blind the eyes of the wise, and pervert 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 shalt justly pursue justice, that ye may live, and go in and inherit the land which the Lord 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 shalt not plant for thyself a grove; thou shalt not plant for thyself any tree near the altar of thy God.

22 也不可為自己設立柱像；這是耶和華－你上帝所恨惡的。

Thou shalt not set up for thyself a pillar, which the Lord thy God hates.
