出埃及 13
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
奉献头胎
13 耶和华对摩西说: 2 “以色列人中的长子和头生的牲畜都属于我,因此要把他们分别出来,使他们圣洁,归给我。”
3 摩西对百姓说:“你们要记住离开埃及的这一天,因为耶和华用大能的手把你们从受奴役的地方解救出来。不可吃带酵的食物。 4 你们是在亚笔月[a]的这一天从埃及出来的, 5 将来耶和华带领你们进入迦南以后,你们每逢此月都要为祂守节期。那里现在住着迦南人、赫人、亚摩利人、希未人和耶布斯人。耶和华已经向你们祖先起誓,应许赐给你们那奶蜜之乡。 6 在节期的七天之内,你们只可以吃无酵饼,到了第七天,你们要为耶和华守节期。 7 七天之内要吃无酵饼,你们境内不得有酵或是带酵的东西。 8 那时,要告诉你们的子孙,‘这节期是纪念我们离开埃及时耶和华为我们所做的一切。’ 9 这节期就好像在你们手上或额上作的记号,叫你们记得耶和华的律法,祂曾经用大能的手把你们带出埃及。 10 因此,每一年你们都要按时守这节期。
11 “将来耶和华成就祂起誓给你们祖先的应许,领你们进入迦南人的土地,把那里赐给你们以后, 12 你们要把所有长子和头生的公畜归给祂。 13 所有头生的公驴必须用羊羔赎回,不然就要打断它的脖子。要赎回你们所有的长子。 14 将来你们的子孙问起这件事的意义,你们就回答,‘耶和华曾经用大能的手把我们从受奴役之地——埃及领出来。 15 当时法老硬着心不肯放我们走,所以耶和华就把埃及人的长子和头生的牲畜全都杀了。因此,我们把所有头生的公畜当作祭牲献给耶和华,只把长子赎回来。’ 16 这事就像在你们手上作记号,额上作标记,以牢记耶和华曾用大能的手领我们离开埃及。”
云柱和火柱
17 法老让以色列人离开埃及后,上帝没有带领他们穿越非利士地区,虽然那是条捷径。因为上帝说:“如果他们遇上战争,就会改变主意,返回埃及。” 18 所以,上帝领他们绕道而行,走旷野的路,前往红海[b]。以色列人离开埃及时都带着兵器。 19 摩西把约瑟的骸骨一起带走,因为约瑟曾叫以色列人郑重发誓,对他们说:“上帝必眷顾你们,把你们带出埃及,那时你们要把我的骸骨也一起带走。” 20 以色列人从疏割启程,来到旷野边缘的以倘安营。 21 耶和华走在他们前面,白天用云柱为他们指示道路,晚上用火柱照亮他们,这样他们可以日夜赶路。 22 白天的云柱和晚上的火柱从不离开他们。
出埃及记 13
Chinese New Version (Traditional)
頭生歸耶和華為聖
13 耶和華告訴摩西說: 2 “在以色列人中,你要把所有頭生的都分別為聖歸我;無論是人或是牲畜,凡是頭生的都是我的。”
3 摩西對人民說:“你們要記念這一天,就是從埃及為奴之家出來的這一天,因為耶和華用大能的手把你們從這裡領出來;所以有酵之物都不可以吃。 4 你們是在亞筆月這一日出來的。 5 日後耶和華領你進到迦南人、赫人、亞摩利人、希未人、耶布斯人之地,就是他向你的列祖起誓要賜給你的那流奶與蜜之地,那時你要在這月守這敬拜之禮。 6 你要吃無酵餅七日,第七日要向耶和華守節。 7 七日之中你要吃無酵餅;在你四境之內,不可見有發過酵之物在你面前,也不可見有酵在你那裡。 8 在那日,你要告訴你的兒子說:‘這是因為耶和華在我從埃及出來的時候為我所行的事。’ 9 這要在你的手上作記號,在你額上作記念,好使耶和華的律法常在你的口中,因為耶和華曾用大能的手把你從埃及領出來。 10 所以,你要年年按著定期遵守這定例。
11 “日後,耶和華照著他向你和你的列祖所起的誓,把你領進迦南人之地,把這地賜給你之後, 12 你要把所有頭生的奉獻給耶和華,也要把你一切牲畜中所有頭生的小牲口奉獻給耶和華;公的都屬耶和華。 13 凡是頭生的驢,你要用羊羔代贖;如果你不代贖,就要打斷牠的頸項;凡是你兒子中頭生的人,你都要代贖。 14 日後你的兒子若是問你們:‘這是甚麼意思?’你就要回答他:‘耶和華曾經用大能的手把我們從埃及為奴之家領出來。 15 那時法老心裡剛硬,不讓我們離開,耶和華就把埃及地所有頭生的,無論是人或是牲畜都殺了;所以,我把所有頭生的公牲口都獻給耶和華為祭;但我所有頭生的兒子,卻都要代贖回來。 16 這要在你的手上作記號,在你的額上作頭帶;因為耶和華曾用大能的手把我們從埃及領出來。’”
出埃及的行程
17 法老讓人民離開的時候,雖然非利士的路很近, 神卻不領他們從那裡走,因為 神說:“恐怕百姓看見戰爭而後悔,就回埃及去。” 18 所以 神領人民繞道而行,走曠野的路到紅海去;以色列人從埃及地上來的時候,都帶著兵器。 19 摩西帶了約瑟的骸骨同去,因為約瑟曾經叫以色列人嚴肅地起誓,說:“ 神必定眷顧你們;你們要把我的骸骨從這裡也一同帶去。” 20 他們從疏割起程,在曠野邊界的以倘安營。 21 耶和華在他們前面行,日間用雲柱領他們的路,夜間用火柱光照他們,使他們日夜都可以行走。 22 日間雲柱,夜間火柱,都不離開眾民的面前。
Exodus 13
King James Version
13 And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,
2 Sanctify unto me all the firstborn, whatsoever openeth the womb among the children of Israel, both of man and of beast: it is mine.
3 And Moses said unto the people, Remember this day, in which ye came out from Egypt, out of the house of bondage; for by strength of hand the Lord brought you out from this place: there shall no leavened bread be eaten.
4 This day came ye out in the month Abib.
5 And it shall be when the Lord shall bring thee into the land of the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites, which he sware unto thy fathers to give thee, a land flowing with milk and honey, that thou shalt keep this service in this month.
6 Seven days thou shalt eat unleavened bread, and in the seventh day shall be a feast to the Lord.
7 Unleavened bread shall be eaten seven days; and there shall no leavened bread be seen with thee, neither shall there be leaven seen with thee in all thy quarters.
8 And thou shalt shew thy son in that day, saying, This is done because of that which the Lord did unto me when I came forth out of Egypt.
9 And it shall be for a sign unto thee upon thine hand, and for a memorial between thine eyes, that the Lord's law may be in thy mouth: for with a strong hand hath the Lord brought thee out of Egypt.
10 Thou shalt therefore keep this ordinance in his season from year to year.
11 And it shall be when the Lord shall bring thee into the land of the Canaanites, as he sware unto thee and to thy fathers, and shall give it thee,
12 That thou shalt set apart unto the Lord all that openeth the matrix, and every firstling that cometh of a beast which thou hast; the males shall be the Lord's.
13 And every firstling of an ass thou shalt redeem with a lamb; and if thou wilt not redeem it, then thou shalt break his neck: and all the firstborn of man among thy children shalt thou redeem.
14 And it shall be when thy son asketh thee in time to come, saying, What is this? that thou shalt say unto him, By strength of hand the Lord brought us out from Egypt, from the house of bondage:
15 And it came to pass, when Pharaoh would hardly let us go, that the Lord slew all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both the firstborn of man, and the firstborn of beast: therefore I sacrifice to the Lord all that openeth the matrix, being males; but all the firstborn of my children I redeem.
16 And it shall be for a token upon thine hand, and for frontlets between thine eyes: for by strength of hand the Lord brought us forth out of Egypt.
17 And it came to pass, when Pharaoh had let the people go, that God led them not through the way of the land of the Philistines, although that was near; for God said, Lest peradventure the people repent when they see war, and they return to Egypt:
18 But God led the people about, through the way of the wilderness of the Red sea: and the children of Israel went up harnessed out of the land of Egypt.
19 And Moses took the bones of Joseph with him: for he had straitly sworn the children of Israel, saying, God will surely visit you; and ye shall carry up my bones away hence with you.
20 And they took their journey from Succoth, and encamped in Etham, in the edge of the wilderness.
21 And the Lord went before them by day in a pillar of a cloud, to lead them the way; and by night in a pillar of fire, to give them light; to go by day and night:
22 He took not away the pillar of the cloud by day, nor the pillar of fire by night, from before the people.
