Leviticus 1 The LORD said to Moses, 上主训示梅瑟说： 2 ＂Speak to Aaron and his sons, as well as to all the Israelites, and tell them: This is what the LORD has commanded. ＂你告诉亚郎和他的儿子以及全体以色列子民说：上主这样吩咐说： 3 1 Any Israelite who slaughters an ox or a sheep or a goat, whether in the camp or outside of it, 以色列家中任何人，在营内或在营外，宰杀牛或绵羊或山羊， 4 without first bringing it to the entrance of the meeting tent to present it as an offering to the LORD in front of his Dwelling, shall be judged guilty of bloodshed; and for this, such a man shall be cut off from among his people. 而不牵到会幕门口，在上主住所前，奉献给上主作祭品，这人就应负流血的罪债；他既使血流出，就应由民间铲除。 5 Therefore, such sacrifices as they used to offer up in the open field the Israelites shall henceforth offer to the LORD, bringing them to the priest at the entrance of the meeting tent and sacrificing them there as peace offerings to the LORD. 为此，以色列子民应将他们平素在野外宰杀的牺牲，牵到上主前，在会幕门口交与司祭宰杀这些牺牲，献给上主作和平祭。 6 The priest shall splash the blood on the altar of the LORD at the entrance of the meeting tent and there burn the fat for an odor pleasing to the LORD. 司祭将牲血洒在会幕门口上主的祭坛上，焚烧脂肪，化为中悦上主的馨香。 7 No longer shall they offer their sacrifices to the satyrs to whom they used to render their wanton worship. This shall be an everlasting ordinance for them and their descendants. 从此以后，他们不应再宰杀牺牲，献给他们非法敬拜的一些山羊神：这为他们世世代代是一项永久的法令。 8 ＂Tell them, therefore: Anyone, whether of the house of Israel or of the aliens residing among them, who offers a holocaust or sacrifice 此外，你应吩咐他们说：以色列家及侨居在他们中间的外方人，谁若愿意献全燔祭或祭献， 9 without bringing it to the entrance of the meeting tent to offer it to the LORD, shall be cut off from his kinsmen. 而不牵到会幕门口，奉献给上主，这人就应由民间铲除。 10 And if anyone, whether of the house of 以色列家及侨居在他们中间的外方人，有人吃了什么血，我必怒容而视，与这吃血的人作对，由民间将他铲除。 11 2 Since the life of a living body is in its blood, I have made you put it on the altar, so that atonement may thereby be made for your own lives, because it is the blood, as the seat of life, that makes atonement. 因为肉躯的生命是在血内，我为你们指定了血，在祭坛上为你们的生命赎罪，因为血具有生命，故能赎罪。 12 That is why I have told the Israelites: No one among you, not even a resident alien, may partake of blood. 为此，我吩咐以色列子民说：你们中任何人都不可吃血；侨居在你们中间的外方人，也不可吃血。 13 ＂Anyone hunting, whether of the Israelites or of the aliens residing among them, who catches an animal or a bird that may be eaten, shall pour out its blood and cover it with earth. 以色列子民和侨居在他们中间的外方人，谁若猎取了可食的野兽或飞禽，该放尽它的血，用泥土盖上。 14 Since the life of every living body is its blood, I have told the Israelites: You shall not partake of the blood of any meat. Since the life of every living body is its blood, anyone who partakes of it shall be cut off. 因为一切肉躯的生命都系于血，为此，我吩咐以色列子民说：任何肉上的血，你们都不可吃，因为一切肉躯的生命，都系于血，谁吃了，应被铲除。 15 ＂Everyone, whether a native or an alien, who eats of an animal that died of itself or was killed by a wild beast, shall wash his garments, bathe in water, and be unclean until evening, and then he will be clean. 不论是本地人或是外方人，吃了自死或被猛兽撕裂的禽兽，应洗自己的衣服，用水洗澡，直到晚上是不洁的；以后他才洁净。 16 If he does not wash or does not bathe his body, he shall have the guilt to bear.＂ 但是，如果他不洗衣，也不洗身，应负罪债。＂ Footnotes(注解) 1 [3-5] The ancients considered blood the seat and sign of life, and therefore something sacred, even in animals. Cf Genesis 9:4-5. Hence, even the ordinary butchering of an animal for meat was looked upon as having a sacrificial character, so that it should be performed at the sanctuary. This law, however, could not be carried out without great difficulty when the Israelites were scattered throughout 2 [11] That atonement may thereby be made for your own lives: hence, the sacrifice of an animal was a symbolic act which substituted the victim's life for the life of the offerer, who thus acknowledged that he deserved God's punishments for his sins. This idea of sacrifice is applied in Hebrews 9-10 to the death of Christ, inasmuch as ＂without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness＂ (Hebrews 9:22). |
