利未記 16
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
贖罪日的條例
16 亞倫的兩個兒子死在耶和華面前以後， 2 耶和華對摩西說：「告訴你哥哥亞倫，他不可隨意進入幔子裡面的至聖所，走到約櫃上的施恩座前，免得死亡，因為我要在施恩座之上的雲彩中顯現。 3 亞倫進入聖所時，要帶一隻作贖罪祭的公牛犢和一隻作燔祭的公綿羊。 4 他要穿上聖潔的細麻內袍、細麻褲子，束上細麻腰帶，戴上細麻禮冠。這些是聖潔的衣物，他必須沐浴後才可穿戴。 5 他要從以色列會眾那裡取兩隻公山羊作贖罪祭、一隻公綿羊作燔祭。 6 亞倫要先獻上那頭公牛犢作贖罪祭，為自己和全家贖罪。 7 然後，他要把兩隻公山羊帶到會幕門口，放在耶和華面前， 8 抽籤決定哪隻歸耶和華、哪隻歸阿撒瀉勒[a]。 9 亞倫要獻上那隻歸耶和華的公山羊作贖罪祭， 10 要將那隻歸阿撒瀉勒的公山羊活著獻給耶和華，然後把牠放到曠野歸阿撒瀉勒，用來贖罪。
11 「亞倫要把那隻為他作贖罪祭的公牛犢牽來宰殺，為自己和全家贖罪， 12 然後拿一個香爐，盛滿從耶和華面前的祭壇上取的火炭，再拿兩把磨細的香帶進幔子裡。 13 他要在耶和華面前燒香，使香的煙籠罩約櫃上的施恩座，免得他死亡。 14 他要取一些牛血，用手指彈灑在施恩座的東面，也要在施恩座前用手指彈灑七次。 15 然後，亞倫要出去宰殺那隻為民眾作贖罪祭的公山羊，把羊血帶進幔子裡，像灑牛血一樣灑在施恩座的上面和前面。 16 因以色列人的污穢、叛逆和罪惡，他要這樣為至聖所贖罪。他也要同樣為會幕贖罪，因為會幕座落在以色列人中間，處在他們的污穢中。 17 從他進入聖所為自己全家和以色列全體會眾贖罪開始，直到他贖完罪出來為止，任何人都不可待在會幕裡。 18 之後，他要來到耶和華面前的祭壇那裡，為祭壇贖罪。他要取一些牛血和羊血，抹在祭壇的四角上， 19 用手指向祭壇灑血七次，除掉以色列人的污穢，使祭壇聖潔。
20 「他為至聖所、會幕和祭壇贖罪後，要牽來那隻活山羊， 21 把雙手放在羊頭上，承認以色列人的過犯、叛逆和罪惡，將這一切罪歸到公山羊的頭上，然後派人把牠送到曠野。 22 這隻公山羊擔當他們的一切罪，將這一切罪帶到荒無人煙的地方。
23 「亞倫要走進會幕，脫下他進至聖所時穿的細麻衣服，放在會幕裡。 24 他要在聖潔之處沐浴，穿上平時的衣服出去為自己和民眾獻燔祭，為自己和民眾贖罪。 25 他要將贖罪祭牲的脂肪焚燒在壇上。 26 把羊送交阿撒瀉勒的人要洗衣、沐浴，然後才可回到營裡。 27 作贖罪祭的公牛和公山羊的血被帶進聖所用來贖罪，要把公牛和公山羊帶到營外，用火焚燒牠們的皮、肉和糞。 28 負責焚燒的人要洗衣、沐浴，然後才可回到營裡。
29 「每年七月十日，不論是你們，還是寄居在你們中間的外族人，都要禁食，停止所有工作。這是你們要永遠遵守的律例。 30 因為在這一天要為你們贖罪，使你們在耶和華面前潔淨。 31 這天是你們的安息日，你們要禁食。這是一條永遠不變的律例。 32 那受膏、承受聖職、替代父親做大祭司的要獻祭贖罪。他要穿上聖潔的細麻衣， 33 為至聖所、會幕和祭壇贖罪，也要為祭司和全體會眾贖罪。 34 這是你們要永遠遵守的律例——每年一次為以色列人贖罪。」
於是，摩西遵行了耶和華的吩咐。

World English Bible
16 Yahweh spoke to Moses after the death of the two sons of Aaron, when they came near before Yahweh, and died; 2 and Yahweh said to Moses, “Tell Aaron your brother not to come at just any time into the Most Holy Place within the veil, before the mercy seat which is on the ark; lest he die; for I will appear in the cloud on the mercy seat.
3 “Aaron shall come into the sanctuary with a young bull for a sin offering, and a ram for a burnt offering. 4 He shall put on the holy linen tunic. He shall have the linen trousers on his body, and shall put on the linen sash, and he shall be clothed with the linen turban. They are the holy garments. He shall bathe his body in water, and put them on. 5 He shall take from the congregation of the children of Israel two male goats for a sin offering, and one ram for a burnt offering.
6 “Aaron shall offer the bull of the sin offering, which is for himself, and make atonement for himself and for his house. 7 He shall take the two goats, and set them before Yahweh at the door of the Tent of Meeting. 8 Aaron shall cast lots for the two goats: one lot for Yahweh, and the other lot for the scapegoat. 9 Aaron shall present the goat on which the lot fell for Yahweh, and offer him for a sin offering. 10 But the goat on which the lot fell for the scapegoat shall be presented alive before Yahweh, to make atonement for him, to send him away as the scapegoat into the wilderness.
11 “Aaron shall present the bull of the sin offering, which is for himself, and shall make atonement for himself and for his house, and shall kill the bull of the sin offering which is for himself. 12 He shall take a censer full of coals of fire from off the altar before Yahweh, and two handfuls of sweet incense beaten small, and bring it within the veil. 13 He shall put the incense on the fire before Yahweh, that the cloud of the incense may cover the mercy seat that is on the covenant, so that he will not die. 14 He shall take some of the blood of the bull, and sprinkle it with his finger on the mercy seat on the east; and before the mercy seat he shall sprinkle some of the blood with his finger seven times.
15 “Then he shall kill the goat of the sin offering that is for the people, and bring his blood within the veil, and do with his blood as he did with the blood of the bull, and sprinkle it on the mercy seat and before the mercy seat. 16 He shall make atonement for the Holy Place, because of the uncleanness of the children of Israel, and because of their transgressions, even all their sins; and so he shall do for the Tent of Meeting that dwells with them in the middle of their uncleanness. 17 No one shall be in the Tent of Meeting when he enters to make atonement in the Holy Place, until he comes out, and has made atonement for himself and for his household, and for all the assembly of Israel.
18 “He shall go out to the altar that is before Yahweh and make atonement for it, and shall take some of the bull’s blood, and some of the goat’s blood, and put it around on the horns of the altar. 19 He shall sprinkle some of the blood on it with his finger seven times, and cleanse it, and make it holy from the uncleanness of the children of Israel.
20 “When he has finished atoning for the Holy Place, the Tent of Meeting, and the altar, he shall present the live goat. 21 Aaron shall lay both his hands on the head of the live goat, and confess over him all the iniquities of the children of Israel, and all their transgressions, even all their sins; and he shall put them on the head of the goat, and shall send him away into the wilderness by the hand of a man who is ready. 22 The goat shall carry all their iniquities on himself to a solitary land, and he shall release the goat in the wilderness.
23 “Aaron shall come into the Tent of Meeting, and shall take off the linen garments which he put on when he went into the Holy Place, and shall leave them there. 24 Then he shall bathe himself in water in a holy place, put on his garments, and come out and offer his burnt offering and the burnt offering of the people, and make atonement for himself and for the people. 25 The fat of the sin offering he shall burn on the altar.
26 “He who lets the goat go as the scapegoat shall wash his clothes, and bathe his flesh in water, and afterward he shall come into the camp. 27 The bull for the sin offering, and the goat for the sin offering, whose blood was brought in to make atonement in the Holy Place, shall be carried outside the camp; and they shall burn their skins, their flesh, and their dung with fire. 28 He who burns them shall wash his clothes, and bathe his flesh in water, and afterward he shall come into the camp.
29 “It shall be a statute to you forever: in the seventh month, on the tenth day of the month, you shall afflict your souls, and shall do no kind of work, whether native-born or a stranger who lives as a foreigner among you; 30 for on this day shall atonement be made for you, to cleanse you. You shall be clean from all your sins before Yahweh. 31 It is a Sabbath of solemn rest to you, and you shall afflict your souls. It is a statute forever. 32 The priest, who is anointed and who is consecrated to be priest in his father’s place, shall make the atonement, and shall put on the linen garments, even the holy garments. 33 Then he shall make atonement for the Holy Sanctuary; and he shall make atonement for the Tent of Meeting and for the altar; and he shall make atonement for the priests and for all the people of the assembly.
34 “This shall be an everlasting statute for you, to make atonement for the children of Israel once in the year because of all their sins.”
It was done as Yahweh commanded Moses.
Leviticus 16
King James Version
16 And the Lord spake unto Moses after the death of the two sons of Aaron, when they offered before the Lord, and died;
2 And the Lord said unto Moses, Speak unto Aaron thy brother, that he come not at all times into the holy place within the vail before the mercy seat, which is upon the ark; that he die not: for I will appear in the cloud upon the mercy seat.
3 Thus shall Aaron come into the holy place: with a young bullock for a sin offering, and a ram for a burnt offering.
4 He shall put on the holy linen coat, and he shall have the linen breeches upon his flesh, and shall be girded with a linen girdle, and with the linen mitre shall he be attired: these are holy garments; therefore shall he wash his flesh in water, and so put them on.
5 And he shall take of the congregation of the children of Israel two kids of the goats for a sin offering, and one ram for a burnt offering.
6 And Aaron shall offer his bullock of the sin offering, which is for himself, and make an atonement for himself, and for his house.
7 And he shall take the two goats, and present them before the Lord at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
8 And Aaron shall cast lots upon the two goats; one lot for the Lord, and the other lot for the scapegoat.
9 And Aaron shall bring the goat upon which the Lord's lot fell, and offer him for a sin offering.
10 But the goat, on which the lot fell to be the scapegoat, shall be presented alive before the Lord, to make an atonement with him, and to let him go for a scapegoat into the wilderness.
11 And Aaron shall bring the bullock of the sin offering, which is for himself, and shall make an atonement for himself, and for his house, and shall kill the bullock of the sin offering which is for himself:
12 And he shall take a censer full of burning coals of fire from off the altar before the Lord, and his hands full of sweet incense beaten small, and bring it within the vail:
13 And he shall put the incense upon the fire before the Lord, that the cloud of the incense may cover the mercy seat that is upon the testimony, that he die not:
14 And he shall take of the blood of the bullock, and sprinkle it with his finger upon the mercy seat eastward; and before the mercy seat shall he sprinkle of the blood with his finger seven times.
15 Then shall he kill the goat of the sin offering, that is for the people, and bring his blood within the vail, and do with that blood as he did with the blood of the bullock, and sprinkle it upon the mercy seat, and before the mercy seat:
16 And he shall make an atonement for the holy place, because of the uncleanness of the children of Israel, and because of their transgressions in all their sins: and so shall he do for the tabernacle of the congregation, that remaineth among them in the midst of their uncleanness.
17 And there shall be no man in the tabernacle of the congregation when he goeth in to make an atonement in the holy place, until he come out, and have made an atonement for himself, and for his household, and for all the congregation of Israel.
18 And he shall go out unto the altar that is before the Lord, and make an atonement for it; and shall take of the blood of the bullock, and of the blood of the goat, and put it upon the horns of the altar round about.
19 And he shall sprinkle of the blood upon it with his finger seven times, and cleanse it, and hallow it from the uncleanness of the children of Israel.
20 And when he hath made an end of reconciling the holy place, and the tabernacle of the congregation, and the altar, he shall bring the live goat:
21 And Aaron shall lay both his hands upon the head of the live goat, and confess over him all the iniquities of the children of Israel, and all their transgressions in all their sins, putting them upon the head of the goat, and shall send him away by the hand of a fit man into the wilderness:
22 And the goat shall bear upon him all their iniquities unto a land not inhabited: and he shall let go the goat in the wilderness.
23 And Aaron shall come into the tabernacle of the congregation, and shall put off the linen garments, which he put on when he went into the holy place, and shall leave them there:
24 And he shall wash his flesh with water in the holy place, and put on his garments, and come forth, and offer his burnt offering, and the burnt offering of the people, and make an atonement for himself, and for the people.
25 And the fat of the sin offering shall he burn upon the altar.
26 And he that let go the goat for the scapegoat shall wash his clothes, and bathe his flesh in water, and afterward come into the camp.
27 And the bullock for the sin offering, and the goat for the sin offering, whose blood was brought in to make atonement in the holy place, shall one carry forth without the camp; and they shall burn in the fire their skins, and their flesh, and their dung.
28 And he that burneth them shall wash his clothes, and bathe his flesh in water, and afterward he shall come into the camp.
29 And this shall be a statute for ever unto you: that in the seventh month, on the tenth day of the month, ye shall afflict your souls, and do no work at all, whether it be one of your own country, or a stranger that sojourneth among you:
30 For on that day shall the priest make an atonement for you, to cleanse you, that ye may be clean from all your sins before the Lord.
31 It shall be a sabbath of rest unto you, and ye shall afflict your souls, by a statute for ever.
32 And the priest, whom he shall anoint, and whom he shall consecrate to minister in the priest's office in his father's stead, shall make the atonement, and shall put on the linen clothes, even the holy garments:
33 And he shall make an atonement for the holy sanctuary, and he shall make an atonement for the tabernacle of the congregation, and for the altar, and he shall make an atonement for the priests, and for all the people of the congregation.
34 And this shall be an everlasting statute unto you, to make an atonement for the children of Israel for all their sins once a year. And he did as the Lord commanded Moses.
