< Numbers 6 >

1 And the Lord spak to Moises and seide, Speke thou to the sones of Israel,
上主訓示梅瑟說:「
2 and thou schalt seie to hem, Whanne a man ether a womman makith auow, that thei be halewid, and thei wolen halewe hem silf to the Lord,
你告訴以色列子民說:無論男女,若許了一個特願,即「納齊爾」願,獻身於上主,
3 thei schulen absteyne fro wyn and fro al thing that may make drunkun; thei schulen not drynke vynegre of wyn, and of ony other drynkyng, and what euer thing is pressid out of the grape; thei schulen not ete freisch grapis and drie,
他該戒飲清酒和烈酒,不可喝清酒和烈酒製的醋,不可喝任何葡萄汁,也不可吃新鮮或乾葡萄。
4 alle dayes in whiche thei ben halewid bi a vow to the Lord; thei schulen not ete what euer thing may be of the vyner, fro a grape dried `til to the draf.
在整個獻身期內,凡葡萄樹所結的,甚至葡萄仁和皮,都不可吃。
5 In al tyme of his departyng a rasour schal not passe on his heed, `til to the day fillid in which he is halewid to the Lord; he schal be hooli while the heer of his heed `schal wexe.
在他整個守獻身願的時期內,不可剃頭;他幾時未滿獻身的願,是祝聖於上主的,應讓頭髮自由生長。
6 In al the tyme of his halewing he schal not entre on a deed bodi,
在他獻身於上主的整個時期內,凡有死人的地方,不可走進。
7 and sotheli he schal not be defoulid on the deed bodi of fadir and of moder, of brothir and of sistir, for the halewyng of his God is on his heed;
連父親母親或兄弟姊妹死時,也不可讓自己沾染不潔,因為在他頭上有奉獻於天主的記號。
8 ech dai of his departyng schal be hooli to the Lord.
在他整個獻身期內,他是祝聖於上主的。
9 But if ony man is deed sudeynly bifore hym, the heed of his halewyng schal be defoulid, which he schal schaue anoon in the same dai of his clensyng, and eft in the seuenthe dai;
若有人忽然在他身旁猝死,那獻身者的願就沾染了不潔,在他取潔的那一天,應剃頭,即在第七天他應剃頭。
10 forsothe in the eiyte dai he schal offre twei turtlis, ether twei `briddis of a culuer, to the preest, in the entryng of the boond of pees of witnessyng.
到第八天,他應帶兩隻斑鳩和兩隻雛鴿,在會幕門口交給司祭。
11 And the preest schal make oon for synne, and the tothir in to brent sacrifice; and the preest schal preie for hym, for he synnede on a deed bodi, and he schal halewe his heed in that dai.
司祭取一隻獻作贖罪祭,另一隻獻作全燔祭,為他因染死屍的不潔贖罪。他在當天應祝聖自己的頭,
12 And he schal halewe to the Lord the daies of his departyng, and he schal offre a lomb of o yeer for synne, so netheles that the formere daies be maad voide, for his halewyng is defoulid.
重新將獻身的日子奉獻於上主,且應獻一隻一歲羔羊作贖過祭;以前的日子無效,因為獻身者的頭沾染了不潔。
13 This is the lawe of consecracioun. Whanne the daies schulen be fillid, whiche he determynede by a vow, the preest schal brynge hym to the dore of the tabernacle of boond of pees, and schal offre his offryng to the Lord,
關於「納齊爾」人的法律如下:在他獻身願期滿的那一天,應引他到會幕門口,
14 a lomb of o yeer with out wem, in to brent sacrifice, and a scheep of o yeer with outen wem, for synne, and a ram with out wem, a pesible sacrifice;
他應獻給上主的祭品是:一隻無殘疾的一歲公羔羊作全燔祭,一隻無殘疾的母羔羊作贖罪祭,一隻無殘疾的公綿羊作和平祭,
15 also a panyere of theerf looues, that ben spreynt togidere with oile, and cakis sodun in watir, and aftir anoyntid with oile, with out sourdow, and fletyng sacrifices of alle bi hem silf;
一籃用細麵調油做的無酵餅,抹上油的無酵薄餅,以及同獻的素祭及奠祭。
16 whiche the preest schal offre bifor the Lord, and schal make as wel for synne as in to brent sacrifice.
司祭在上主面前獻上這些祭品後,就為他舉行贖罪祭和全燔祭;
17 Sotheli he schal offre the ram a pesible sacrifice to the Lord, and he schal offre togidere a panyere of therf looues and fletyng sacryfices, that ben due bi custom.
將公綿羊同一籃無酵餅獻給上主作和平祭;然後幾行素祭和奠祭。
18 Thanne the Nazarei schal be schauun fro the heer of his consecracioun, bifor the doore of the tabernacle of boond of pees; and the preest schal take hise heeris, and schal putte on the fier, which is put vndur the sacrifice of pesible thingis.
獻身者在會幕門口剃去自己祝聖的頭髮,把祝聖的頭髮,放在和平祭品的火上焚燒。
19 And he schal take the schuldur sodun of the ram, and o `cake of breed with out sourdow fro the panyere, and o theerf caak first sodun in watir and aftirward fried in oile, and he schal bitake in the hondis of the Nazarei, aftir that his heed is schauun.
他剃去祝聖的頭髮以後,司祭取出煮過的公綿羊肩部,與籃中的一塊無酵餅和一塊無酵的薄餅,放在獻身者手上。
20 And the preest schal reise in the `siyt of the Lord the thingis takun eft of hym. And the thingis halewid schulen be the preestis part, as the brest which is comaundid to be departid, and the hipe. Aftir these thingis the Nasarey may drynke wyn.
司祭將這些祭品在上主前,行奉獻的搖禮,除搖過的胸脯和舉過的腿外,這些亦是屬於司祭的聖物。此後,獻身者方可飲酒:
21 This is the lawe of the Nasarei, whanne he hath avowyd his offryng to the Lord in the tyme of his consecracioun, outakun these thingis whiche his hond fyndith. By this that he avowide in soule, so he schal do, to the perfeccioun of his halewyng.
這是關於許獻身願者的法律,獻身者應奉獻於上主的祭品;如果獻身者照自己的財力許願多獻,就應照所許的願,在獻身願所規定的以外,多作奉獻。」
22 And the Lord spak to Moyses and seide,
上主訓示梅瑟說:「
23 Speke thou to Aaron and to hise sones, Thus ye schulen blesse the sones of Israel, and ye schulen seie to hem,
你告訴亞郎和他的兒子說:你們應這樣祝福以色列子民說:『
24 The Lord blesse thee, and kepe thee;
願上主祝福你,保護你;
25 the Lord schewe his face to thee, and haue mercy on thee;
願上主的慈顏光照你,仁慈待你。
26 the Lord turne his cheer to thee, and yyue pees to thee.
願上主轉面垂顧你,賜你平安。』
27 Thei schulen clepe inwardli my name on the sones of Israel, and Y schal blesse hem.
這樣,他們將以色列子民歸我名下,我必祝福他們。」
