申命記 16
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
逾越節
16 「你們要在亞筆月[a]為你們的上帝耶和華守逾越節,因為祂在這個月的一個晚上帶領你們離開了埃及。 2 你們要在你們的上帝耶和華選定的敬拜場所,把牛羊作為逾越節的祭牲獻給祂。 3 吃祭牲的時候,不可吃有酵的餅,七天之內要吃無酵餅,即憶苦餅,以便你們一生謹記離開埃及的日子,因為當時你們離開得很倉促。 4 那七天之內,你們境內不可有酵母。第一天傍晚獻的祭肉不可留到第二天早晨。 5 在你們的上帝耶和華將要賜給你們的各城中,你們不可隨便獻逾越節的祭牲, 6 而是要在傍晚日落時分,即你們離開埃及的時候,到你們的上帝耶和華選定的敬拜場所獻逾越節的祭牲。 7 你們要在那裡煮祭肉吃,第二天早晨可以返回自己的帳篷。 8 在隨後的六天之內,你們要吃無酵餅。第七天,要舉行莊嚴的聚會,敬拜你們的上帝耶和華。那一天你們不可做工。
七七收穫節
9 「從收割那天開始算起,你們要算出七週的時間。 10 七週後,要為你們的上帝耶和華守七七收穫節[b]。那時,你們要按照你們的上帝耶和華所賜的福分,甘心樂意地獻上祭物。 11 你們要和兒女、僕婢、同城的利未人、寄居者及孤兒寡婦在你們的上帝耶和華選定的敬拜場所,在祂面前一起歡喜快樂。 12 你們要記住自己曾在埃及做過奴隸,因此要謹遵這些律例。
住棚節
13 「在收藏好穀物和新酒後,你們要守七天的住棚節。 14 住棚節期間,你們要和兒女、僕婢、同城的利未人、寄居者及孤兒寡婦一起歡慶。 15 要在你們的上帝耶和華選定的地方,為祂守住棚節七天;要滿心歡喜,因為你們的上帝耶和華賜福你們,使你們的出產豐富、凡事順利。
16 「你們所有男子要每年三次,即在無酵節、七七收穫節和住棚節,在你們的上帝耶和華指定的地方朝見祂。你們不可空手朝見, 17 各人要按祂賜的福分,盡自己的能力獻上禮物。
委任審判官
18 「要在你們的上帝耶和華將要賜給你們的各城中,按支派委任審判官及其他官員。官員們要秉公審判, 19 不可徇私枉法、偏心待人,收受賄賂,因為賄賂能蒙蔽智者的眼睛,使正直人顛倒是非。 20 你們要追求公正公義,以便可以存活,承受你們的上帝耶和華將要賜給你們的土地。
不可拜偶像
21 「在為你們的上帝耶和華建造的祭壇旁,你們不可豎立亞舍拉木神像, 22 也不可豎立神柱,因為這些是你們的上帝耶和華所憎惡的。
Deuteronomy 16
Revised Standard Version
The Passover Reviewed
16 “Observe the month of Abib, and keep the passover to the Lord your God; for in the month of Abib the Lord your God brought you out of Egypt by night. 2 And you shall offer the passover sacrifice to the Lord your God, from the flock or the herd, at the place which the Lord will choose, to make his name dwell there. 3 You shall eat no leavened bread with it; seven days you shall eat it with unleavened bread, the bread of affliction—for you came out of the land of Egypt in hurried flight—that all the days of your life you may remember the day when you came out of the land of Egypt. 4 No leaven shall be seen with you in all your territory for seven days; nor shall any of the flesh which you sacrifice on the evening of the first day remain all night until morning. 5 You may not offer the passover sacrifice within any of your towns which the Lord your God gives you; 6 but at the place which the Lord your God will choose, to make his name dwell in it, there you shall offer the passover sacrifice, in the evening at the going down of the sun, at the time you came out of Egypt. 7 And you shall boil it and eat it at the place which the Lord your God will choose; and in the morning you shall turn and go to your tents. 8 For six days you shall eat unleavened bread; and on the seventh day there shall be a solemn assembly to the Lord your God; you shall do no work on it.
The Festival of Weeks Reviewed
9 “You shall count seven weeks; begin to count the seven weeks from the time you first put the sickle to the standing grain. 10 Then you shall keep the feast of weeks to the Lord your God with the tribute of a freewill offering from your hand, which you shall give as the Lord your God blesses you; 11 and you shall rejoice before the Lord your God, you and your son and your daughter, your manservant and your maidservant, the Levite who is within your towns, the sojourner, the fatherless, and the widow who are among you, at the place which the Lord your God will choose, to make his name dwell there. 12 You shall remember that you were a slave in Egypt; and you shall be careful to observe these statutes.
The Festival of Booths Reviewed
13 “You shall keep the feast of booths seven days, when you make your ingathering from your threshing floor and your wine press; 14 you shall rejoice in your feast, you and your son and your daughter, your manservant and your maidservant, the Levite, the sojourner, the fatherless, and the widow who are within your towns. 15 For seven days you shall keep the feast to the Lord your God at the place which the Lord will choose; because the Lord your God will bless you in all your produce and in all the work of your hands, so that you will be altogether joyful.
16 “Three times a year all your males shall appear before the Lord your God at the place which he will choose: at the feast of unleavened bread, at the feast of weeks, and at the feast of booths. They shall not appear before the Lord empty-handed; 17 every man shall give as he is able, according to the blessing of the Lord your God which he has given you.
Municipal Judges and Officers
18 “You shall appoint judges and officers in all your towns which the Lord your God gives you, according to your tribes; and they shall judge the people with righteous judgment. 19 You shall not pervert justice; you shall not show partiality; and you shall not take a bribe, for a bribe blinds the eyes of the wise and subverts the cause of the righteous. 20 Justice, and only justice, you shall follow, that you may live and inherit the land which the Lord your God gives you.
Forbidden Forms of Worship
21 “You shall not plant any tree as an Ashe′rah beside the altar of the Lord your God which you shall make. 22 And you shall not set up a pillar, which the Lord your God hates.
Deuteronomy 16
King James Version
16 Observe the month of Abib, and keep the passover unto the Lord thy God: for in the month of Abib the Lord thy God brought thee forth out of Egypt by night.
2 Thou shalt therefore sacrifice the passover unto the Lord thy God, of the flock and the herd, in the place which the Lord shall choose to place his name there.
3 Thou shalt eat no leavened bread with it; seven days shalt thou eat unleavened bread therewith, even the bread of affliction; for thou camest forth out of the land of Egypt in haste: that thou mayest remember the day when thou camest forth out of the land of Egypt all the days of thy life.
4 And there shall be no leavened bread seen with thee in all thy coast seven days; neither shall there any thing of the flesh, which thou sacrificedst the first day at even, remain all night until the morning.
5 Thou mayest not sacrifice the passover within any of thy gates, which the Lord thy God giveth thee:
6 But at the place which the Lord thy God shall choose to place his name in, there thou shalt sacrifice the passover at even, at the going down of the sun, at the season that thou camest forth out of Egypt.
7 And thou shalt roast and eat it in the place which the Lord thy God shall choose: and thou shalt turn in the morning, and go unto thy tents.
8 Six days thou shalt eat unleavened bread: and on the seventh day shall be a solemn assembly to the Lord thy God: thou shalt do no work therein.
9 Seven weeks shalt thou number unto thee: begin to number the seven weeks from such time as thou beginnest to put the sickle to the corn.
10 And thou shalt keep the feast of weeks unto the Lord thy God with a tribute of a freewill offering of thine hand, which thou shalt give unto the Lord thy God, according as the Lord thy God hath blessed thee:
11 And thou shalt rejoice before the Lord thy God, thou, and thy son, and thy daughter, and thy manservant, and thy maidservant, and the Levite that is within thy gates, and the stranger, and the fatherless, and the widow, that are among you, in the place which the Lord thy God hath chosen to place his name there.
12 And thou shalt remember that thou wast a bondman in Egypt: and thou shalt observe and do these statutes.
13 Thou shalt observe the feast of tabernacles seven days, after that thou hast gathered in thy corn and thy wine:
14 And thou shalt rejoice in thy feast, thou, and thy son, and thy daughter, and thy manservant, and thy maidservant, and the Levite, the stranger, and the fatherless, and the widow, that are within thy gates.
15 Seven days shalt thou keep a solemn feast unto the Lord thy God in the place which the Lord shall choose: because the Lord thy God shall bless thee in all thine increase, and in all the works of thine hands, therefore thou shalt surely rejoice.
16 Three times in a year shall all thy males appear before the Lord thy God in the place which he shall choose; in the feast of unleavened bread, and in the feast of weeks, and in the feast of tabernacles: and they shall not appear before the Lord empty:
17 Every man shall give as he is able, according to the blessing of the Lord thy God which he hath given thee.
18 Judges and officers shalt thou make thee in all thy gates, which the Lord thy God giveth thee, throughout thy tribes: and they shall judge the people with just judgment.
19 Thou shalt not wrest judgment; thou shalt not respect persons, neither take a gift: for a gift doth blind the eyes of the wise, and pervert the words of the righteous.
20 That which is altogether just shalt thou follow, that thou mayest live, and inherit the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee.
21 Thou shalt not plant thee a grove of any trees near unto the altar of the Lord thy God, which thou shalt make thee.
22 Neither shalt thou set thee up any image; which the Lord thy God hateth.
