¹祭司和利未人的职责

¹And Jehovah saith unto Aaron, `Thou, and thy sons, and the house of thy father with thee, do bear the iniquity of the sanctuary; and thou, and thy sons with thee, do bear the iniquity of your priesthood;

²你要带着你的亲族利未支派的人，就是你祖宗支派的人，与你一同前来，使他们与你联合，并且服事你；只是你和你的儿子要与你一同在约柜的会幕前供职。

²and also thy brethren, the tribe of Levi, the tribe of thy father, bring near with thee, and they are joined unto thee, and serve thee, even thou and thy sons with thee, before the tent of the testimony.

³他们要守你所吩咐的，和会幕里的一切事，只是不可走近圣所的器具和祭坛，免得他们和你们都死亡。

³`And they have kept thy charge, and the charge of all the tent; only, unto the vessels of the sanctuary and unto the altar they do not come near, and they die not, either they or you;

⁴他们要与你联合，也要守会幕的本分，办理会幕的一切事务；只是外人不可走近你们。

⁴and they have been joined unto thee, and have kept the charge of the tent of meeting, for all the service of the tent; and a stranger doth not come near unto you;

⁵你们要看守圣所和祭坛，免得震怒再临到以色列人。

⁵and ye have kept the charge of the sanctuary, and the charge of the altar, and there is no more wrath against the sons of Israel.

⁶我已经把你们的亲族利未人，从以色列人中拣选出来，给你们作礼物献与耶和华，为要办理会幕的事。

⁶`And I, lo, I have taken your brethren the Levites from the midst of the sons of Israel; to you a gift they are given by Jehovah, to do the service of the tent of meeting;

⁷你和你的儿子，要与你一同守你们祭司的职分，办理一切属祭坛和幔子内的事；你们要这样供职。我把祭司的职分赐给你们作服事我的赏赐；外人若是近前来，必被处死。”

⁷and thou, and thy sons with thee, do keep your priesthood, for everything of the altar, and within the vail, and ye have served; a service of gift I make your priesthood; and the stranger who is coming near is put to death.`

⁸祭司应得之分耶和华对亚伦说：“我已经把保留归我的举祭，就是以色列人一切分别为圣的物，都赐给你和你的子孙，作为永远应得的分。

⁸And Jehovah speaketh unto Aaron: `And I, lo, I have given to thee the charge of My heave-offerings, of all the hallowed things of the sons of Israel — to thee I have given them for the anointing, and to thy sons, by a statute age-during.

⁹以色列人所献一切不经过火、至圣的供物，就是一切素祭、一切赎罪祭和一切赎愆祭，都要作至圣的物，归给你和你的子孙。

⁹This is thine of the most holy things, from the fire: all their offering, to all their present, and to all their sin-offering, and to all their guilt-offering, which they give back to Me, is most holy to thee, and to thy sons;

¹⁰你要在至圣的地方吃，凡是男的都可以吃；你要以此物为圣。

¹⁰in the holy of holies thou dost eat it; every male doth eat it; holy it is to thee.

¹¹以色列人礼物中的举祭，与他们的摇祭，都是你的；我已经给了你和你的儿女，作为永远应得的分；在你家中洁净的人都可以吃。

¹¹`And this [is] thine: the heave-offering of their gift, to all the wave-offerings of the sons of Israel, to thee I have given them, and to thy sons, and to thy daughters with thee, by a statute age-during; every clean one in thy house doth eat it;

¹²最好的油、最好的新酒和五谷，就是以色列人献给耶和华的初熟的物，我都赐给你。

¹²all the best of the oil, and all the best of the new wine, and wheat — their first-[fruits] which they give to Jehovah — to thee I have given them.

¹³从他们地上带来给耶和华的初熟的物，都要归给你们；在你家中洁净的人，都可以吃。

¹³`The first-fruits of all that [is] in their land, which they bring in to Jehovah, are thine; every clean one in thy house doth eat it;

¹⁴以色列中一切永献的物，都必归给你。

¹⁴every devoted thing in Israel is thine,

¹⁵有血肉生命头生的，无论是人或是牲畜，就是他们献给耶和华的，都必归给你；只是人类头生的，你总要赎出来；不洁净牲畜头生的，也要赎出来。

¹⁵every one opening a womb of all flesh which they bring near to Jehovah, among man and among beast, is thine; only, thou dost certainly ransom the first-born of man, and the firstling of the unclean beast thou dost ransom.

¹⁶关于他们的赎价，一个月以上的，你要照你估定的价，按着圣所的秤，就是按照圣所的标准重量（“就是按照圣所的标准重量”，原文作“一舍客勒是二十季拉”），用五十七克银子赎出来。

¹⁶`And their ransomed ones from a son of a month, thou dost ransom with thy valuation, of silver, five shekels, by the shekel of the sanctuary, twenty gerahs it [is].

¹⁷只是头生的牛、头生的绵羊，或是头生的山羊，你不可赎出来；它们都是圣的。你要把它们的血洒在祭坛上，把它们的脂油焚烧，作为献给耶和华馨香的火祭。

¹⁷`Only, the firstling of a cow, or the firstling of a sheep, or the firstling of a goat, thou dost not ransom, holy they [are]: their blood thou dost sprinkle on the altar, and of their fat thou makest perfume, a fire-offering of sweet fragrance to Jehovah,

¹⁸它们的肉却要归给你，像摇过的胸和右腿要归给你一样。

¹⁸and their flesh is thine, as the breast of the wave-offering, and as the right leg, it is thine;

¹⁹以色列人奉献给耶和华圣物中的举祭，我都赐给了你和与你在一起的儿女，作永远应得的分；这是在耶和华面前给你和与你在一起的后裔作永远的盐约。”

¹⁹all the heave-offerings of the holy things which the sons of Israel lift up to Jehovah I have given to thee and to thy sons, and to thy daughters with thee, by a statute age-during, a covenant of salt, age-during it [is] before Jehovah, to thee and to thy seed with thee.`

²⁰耶和华对亚伦说：“你在以色列人的地不可有产业，在他们中间也不可有分；在以色列人中间，我就是你的分，是你的产业。

²⁰And Jehovah saith unto Aaron, `In their land thou dost not inherit, and a portion thou hast not in their midst: I [am] thy portion, and thine inheritance in the midst of the sons of Israel;

²¹利未人应得之分“至于利未的子孙，我已经把以色列中所有的十分之一，赐给了他们作产业，这是为酬报他们在会幕里办理的事务。

²¹and to the sons of Levi, lo, I have given all the tenth in Israel for inheritance in exchange for their service which they are serving — the service of the tent of meeting.

²²从今以后，以色列人不可走近会幕，免得他们负罪而死。

²²`And the sons of Israel come no more near unto the tent of meeting, to bear sin, to die,

²³唯独利未人要办理会幕的事，要担当他们的罪孽，这要作你们世世代代永远的条例；在以色列人中，他们不可有产业。

²³and the Levites have done the service of the tent of meeting, and they — they bear their iniquity; a statute age-during to your generations, that in the midst of the sons of Israel they have no inheritance;

²⁴因为以色列人献给耶和华为举祭的十分之一，我已经赐给了利未人作产业；所以我对他们说：在以色列人中，他们不可有产业。”

²⁴but the tithe of the sons of Israel which they lift up to Jehovah, a heave-offering, I have given to the Levites for inheritance; therefore I have said of them, In the midst of the sons of Israel they have no inheritance.`

²⁵利未人应纳的十分之一耶和华对摩西说：

²⁵And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,

²⁶“你要告诉利未人：你们既然从以色列人手中，取得了我赐给你们作产业的十分之一，你们就要从这十分之一中，取出十分之一，献给耶和华作为举祭。

²⁶`And unto the Levites thou dost speak; and thou hast said unto them, When ye take from the sons of Israel the tithe which I have given to you from them, for your inheritance, then ye have lifted up from it the heave-offering of Jehovah, a tithe of the tithe;

²⁷这要算为你们的举祭，好像禾场上的五谷，又像榨酒池中的酒。

²⁷and your heave-offering hath been reckoned to you as corn from the threshing-floor, and as fulness from the wine-vat;

²⁸这样，你们也要把从以色列人取得的十分之一，作举祭献给耶和华；你们要把献给耶和华的举祭，归给亚伦祭司。

²⁸so ye do lift up — ye also — the heave-offering of Jehovah from all your tithes which ye receive from the sons of Israel; and ye have given from it the heave-offering of Jehovah to Aaron the priest;

²⁹从你们得的一切礼物中，要把最好的，分别为圣，献给耶和华为举祭。

²⁹out of all your gifts ye do lift up the whole heave-offering of Jehovah; out of all its fat, — its hallowed part — out of it.

³⁰所以你要对利未人说：‘如果你们把最好的献上，这就算为你们禾场上的粮和榨酒池中的酒了。

³⁰`And thou hast said unto them, In your lifting up its fat out of it, then it hath been reckoned to the Levites, as increase of a threshing-floor, and as increase of a wine-vat;

³¹你们和你们的家人，随处都可以吃，因为这是你们的工价，是你们在会幕里办事的报酬。

³¹and ye have eaten it in every place, ye and your households, for it [is] your hire in exchange for your service in the tent of meeting;

³²如果你们把最好的献上，就不致因此担罪。以色列人的圣物，你们不可亵渎，免得你们死亡。’”

³²and ye bear no sin for it, in your lifting up its fat out of it, and the holy things of the sons of Israel ye do not pollute, and ye die not.`
