1獻贖愆祭的幾種事例“如果有人犯罪:他聽見發誓的聲音(“發誓的聲音”或譯:“傳召作證的聲音”,或“發咒語的聲音”);他本是證人,卻不肯把看見或知道的說出來,他就要擔當自己的罪責。
1“‘If anyone sins, in that he hears the voice of adjuration, he being a witness, whether he has seen or known, if he doesn’t report it, then he shall bear his iniquity.
2或人摸了甚麼不潔淨的東西,無論是不潔淨野獸的屍體,或是不潔淨牲畜的屍體,或是不潔淨昆蟲的屍體,當時並不留意,他因為成了不潔淨,就有罪了;
2“‘Or if anyone touches any unclean thing, whether it is the carcass of an unclean animal, or the carcass of unclean livestock, or the carcass of unclean creeping things, and it is hidden from him, and he is unclean, then he shall be guilty.
3或有人摸了人的污穢,他沒有留意玷污了甚麼污穢;他一知道,就有罪了。
3“‘Or if he touches the uncleanness of man, whatever his uncleanness is with which he is unclean, and it is hidden from him; when he knows of it, then he shall be guilty.
4或有人嘴唇輕率發誓,無論是出於惡意或是出於好意,他沒有留意起了甚麼誓;他一知道,就有罪了。
4“‘Or if anyone swears rashly with his lips to do evil, or to do good, whatever it is that a man might utter rashly with an oath, and it is hidden from him; when he knows of it, then he shall be guilty of one of these.
5如果他在任何一件事上犯了罪,就要承認自己所犯的罪;
5It shall be, when he is guilty of one of these, he shall confess that in which he has sinned:
6他要為所犯的罪,把贖愆祭帶到耶和華面前當作贖罪祭,就是羊群中的母羊,或綿羊羔或山羊;祭司就為他的罪行贖罪。
6and he shall bring his trespass offering to Yahweh for his sin which he has sinned, a female from the flock, a lamb or a goat, for a sin offering; and the priest shall make atonement for him concerning his sin.
7“他的經濟能力若是不夠獻一隻羊,他就要為所犯的罪,帶兩隻斑鳩或兩隻雛鴿到耶和華面前作贖愆祭,一隻作贖罪祭,一隻作燔祭。
7“‘If he can’t afford a lamb, then he shall bring his trespass offering for that in which he has sinned, two turtledoves, or two young pigeons, to Yahweh; one for a sin offering, and the other for a burnt offering.
8他要把牠們帶到祭司那裡,祭司就要先獻上作為贖罪祭的一隻,把鳥的頭從頸項上扭斷,只是不可撕斷。
8He shall bring them to the priest, who shall first offer the one which is for the sin offering, and wring off its head from its neck, but shall not sever it completely.
9然後他要把贖罪祭牲的一些血,彈在祭壇旁邊,其餘的血要在祭壇腳那裡擠出來;這是贖罪祭。
9He shall sprinkle some of the blood of the sin offering on the side of the altar; and the rest of the blood shall be drained out at the base of the altar. It is a sin offering.
10第二隻作為燔祭的鳥,要按照燔祭的規則獻上,祭司為他的罪行贖罪,他就蒙赦免。
10He shall offer the second for a burnt offering, according to the ordinance; and the priest shall make atonement for him concerning his sin which he has sinned, and he shall be forgiven.
11“他的經濟能力若是不夠獻兩隻斑鳩或兩隻雛鴿,就要為所犯的罪,帶來一公斤的細麵作贖罪祭的供物;供物不可澆上油,也不可加上乳香,因為這是贖罪祭。
11“‘But if he can’t afford two turtledoves, or two young pigeons, then he shall bring his offering for that in which he has sinned, the tenth part of an ephah 1 ephah is about 22 litres or about 2/3 of a bushel of fine flour for a sin offering. He shall put no oil on it, neither shall he put any frankincense on it, for it is a sin offering.
12他要把供物帶到祭司那裡,祭司從其中取出一把,作為象徵,放在祭壇耶和華的火祭上面焚燒;這是贖罪祭。
12He shall bring it to the priest, and the priest shall take his handful of it as the memorial portion, and burn it on the altar, on the offerings of Yahweh made by fire. It is a sin offering.
13祭司為他所犯的任何一樣罪贖罪,他就蒙赦免。其餘的祭物要歸給祭司,好像素祭一樣。”
13The priest shall make atonement for him concerning his sin that he has sinned in any of these things, and he will be forgiven; and the rest shall be the priest’s, as the meal offering.’”
14贖愆祭的條例耶和華對摩西說:
14Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
15“如果有人在耶和華的聖物上不忠實,無意犯了罪,他就要依照你按著聖所衡量銀子標準所估的銀價,把他的贖愆祭牲,就是羊群中一隻沒有殘疾的公綿羊,牽到耶和華面前作贖愆祭。
15“If anyone commits a trespass, and sins unwittingly, in the holy things of Yahweh; then he shall bring his trespass offering to Yahweh, a ram without blemish from the flock, according to your estimation in silver by shekels, after the shekel of the sanctuary, for a trespass offering.
16他要補償他在聖物上所虧欠的,另加五分之一,交給祭司;祭司要用贖愆祭的公綿羊為他贖罪,他就蒙赦免。
16He shall make restitution for that which he has done wrong in the holy thing, and shall add a fifth part to it, and give it to the priest; and the priest shall make atonement for him with the ram of the trespass offering, and he will be forgiven.
17“如果有人犯了罪,行了一件耶和華吩咐不可行的事;他雖然不清楚,仍是有罪,他就要擔當自己的罪責。
17“If anyone sins, and does any of the things which Yahweh has commanded not to be done; though he didn’t know it, yet he is guilty, and shall bear his iniquity.
18他要依照你的估價,從羊群中把一隻沒有殘疾的公綿羊牽來,給祭司作贖愆祭。祭司為他贖罪,那不清楚的無心之失,就蒙赦免。
18He shall bring a ram without blemish from of the flock, according to your estimation, for a trespass offering, to the priest; and the priest shall make atonement for him concerning the thing in which he sinned and didn’t know it, and he will be forgiven.
19這是贖愆祭,他在耶和華面前實在有罪。”
19It is a trespass offering. He is certainly guilty before Yahweh.”
