利未记 1
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
献燔祭的条例
1 耶和华在会幕里呼唤摩西,对他说: 2 “你把以下条例告诉以色列人。
“如果你们有人献祭给耶和华,要用牛羊作祭物。 3 如果用牛作燔祭,必须用毫无残疾的公牛,在会幕门口献上,便可蒙耶和华悦纳。 4 献祭者要把手放在牛头上,所献的燔祭便蒙悦纳,为他赎罪。 5 他要在耶和华面前宰牛,然后祭司——亚伦的子孙要把牛血洒在会幕门口的祭坛四周。 6 献祭者要剥掉牛皮,把牛切成块。 7 祭司——亚伦的子孙要在祭坛上生火,把木柴摆在火上, 8 然后将肉块、头颅和脂肪都摆在祭坛燃烧的木柴上。 9 献祭者要用水洗净牛的内脏和腿。祭司要把这一切都放在坛上焚烧。这是燔祭,是蒙耶和华悦纳的馨香火祭。
10 “如果用绵羊或山羊作燔祭,必须用毫无残疾的公羊。 11 献祭者要在祭坛北面,在耶和华面前宰羊。祭司——亚伦的子孙要把羊血洒在祭坛四周。 12 献祭者将羊切成块后,祭司要把肉块、头颅和脂肪摆在祭坛燃烧的木柴上。 13 献祭者要用水洗净羊的内脏和腿。祭司要把这一切都放在坛上焚烧。这是燔祭,是蒙耶和华悦纳的馨香火祭。
14 “如果有人用鸟作燔祭,要用斑鸠或雏鸽。 15 祭司要把鸟带到祭坛前,拧下鸟头,放在祭坛上焚烧;要在祭坛旁放尽鸟血; 16 要除掉鸟的嗉子和羽毛,丢在祭坛东边倒灰的地方。 17 祭司要抓着两个翅膀把鸟撕开,但不可撕断,然后把鸟放在坛上焚烧。这是燔祭,是蒙耶和华悦纳的馨香火祭。
Leviticus 1
Easy-to-Read Version
Voluntary Sacrifices and Offerings
1 [a] So the Lord called out to Moses from inside the Meeting Tent and said, 2 “Tell the Israelites: When you bring an offering to the Lord, the offering must be one of your tame animals—it can be a sheep, a goat, or one of your cattle.
3 “If you offer one of your cattle as a burnt offering, it must be a bull that has nothing wrong with it. You must take the animal to the entrance of the Meeting Tent where the Lord will accept the offering. 4 You must put your hand on the animal’s head while it is being killed. So the Lord will accept it as your burnt offering to make you pure.
5 “You[b] must kill the young bull in front of the Lord. Then Aaron’s sons, the priests, will bring the blood to the altar that is near the entrance of the Meeting Tent. He will splash the blood on all four sides of the altar. 6 You must remove the skin from that animal and then cut the animal into pieces. 7 Aaron’s sons, the priests, will put the fire on the altar and arrange the wood on the fire. 8 They will lay the pieces of the animal, including the head and fat, on top of the burning wood. 9 You must wash the legs and inner parts of the animal with water. Then the priest will bring all these parts to the altar to be offered as a burnt offering, a sweet-smelling gift to the Lord.
10 “If you offer a sheep or a goat as a burnt offering, it must be a male that has nothing wrong with it. 11 You must kill the animal on the north side of the altar in front of the Lord. Then Aaron’s sons, the priests, will splash the animal’s blood on all four sides of the altar. 12 You must cut the animal into pieces and remove the head and the fat. The priest will then lay them on the wood that is on the fire of the altar. 13 You must wash the legs and inner parts of the animal with water. Then the priest will bring all these parts to the altar to be offered as a burnt offering, a sweet-smelling gift to the Lord.
14 “If you offer a bird as a burnt offering to the Lord, that bird must be a dove or a young pigeon. 15 The priest will bring the offering to the altar. There the priest will remove the bird’s head, drain out the blood on the side of the altar, and burn the bird on the altar. 16 He will remove the bird’s tail and inner parts[c] and throw them onto the pile of ashes east of the altar. 17 Then the priest will tear the bird open by its wings, but he must not divide it completely into two parts. So he will bring the bird to the altar to be offered as a burnt offering, a sweet-smelling gift to the Lord.
