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。
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。
Exodus 13
Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition
13 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
2 Sanctify unto me every firstborn that openeth the womb among the children of Israel, as well of men as of beasts: for they are all mine.
3 And Moses said to the people: Remember this day in which you came forth out of Egypt, and out of the house of bondage, for with a strong hand hath the Lord brought you forth out of this place: that you eat no leavened bread.
4 This day you go forth in the month of new corn.
5 And when the Lord shall have brought thee into the land of the Chanaanite, and the Hethite, and the Amorrhite, and the Hevite, and the Jebusite, which he swore to thy fathers that he would give thee, a land that floweth with milk and honey, thou shalt celebrate this manner of sacred rites in this month.
6 Seven days shalt thou eat unleavened bread: and on the seventh day shall be the solemnity of the Lord.
7 Unleavened bread shall you eat seven days: there shall not be seen any thing leavened with thee, nor in all thy coasts.
8 And thou shalt tell thy son in that day, saying: This is what the Lord did to me when I came forth out of Egypt.
9 And it shall be as a sign in thy hand, and as a memorial before thy eyes: and that the law of the Lord be always in thy mouth, for with a strong hand the Lord hath brought thee out of the land of Egypt.
10 Thou shalt keep this observance at the set time from days to days.
11 And when the Lord shall have brought thee into the land of the Chanaanite, as he swore to thee and thy fathers, and shall give it thee:
12 Thou shalt set apart all that openeth the womb for the Lord, and all that is first brought forth of thy cattle: whatsoever thou shalt have of the male sex, thou shalt consecrate to the Lord.
13 The firstborn of an ass thou shalt change for a sheep: and if thou do not redeem it, thou shalt kill it. And every firstborn of men thou shalt redeem with a price.
14 And when thy son shall ask thee to morrow, saying: What is this? thou shalt answer him: With a strong hand did the Lord bring us forth out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
15 For when Pharao was hardened, and would not let us go, the Lord slew every firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of man to the firstborn of beasts: therefore I sacrifice to the Lord all that openeth the womb of the male sex, and all the firstborn of my sons I redeem.
16 And it shall be as a sign in thy hand, and as a thing hung between thy eyes, for a remembrance: because the Lord hath brought us forth out of Egypt by a strong hand.
17 And when Pharao had sent out the people, the Lord led them not by the way of the land of the Philistines which is near: thinking lest perhaps they would repent, if they should see wars arise against them, and would return into Egypt.
18 But he led them about by the way of the desert, which is by the Red Sea: and the children of Israel went up armed out of the land of Egypt.
19 And Moses took Joseph's bones with him: because he had adjured the children of Israel, saying: God shall visit you, carry out my bones from hence with you.
20 And marching from Socoth they encamped in Etham in the utmost coasts of the wilderness.
21 And the Lord went before them to shew the way by day in a pillar of a cloud, and by night in a pillar of fire: that he might be the guide of their journey at both times.
22 There never failed the pillar of the cloud by day, nor the pillar of fire by night, before the people.
