申命記

Moses' final speeches and the renewal of the covenant

The fifth book of the Torah, presented as the farewell discourses of Moses on the plains of Moab. It re-narrates the wilderness journey, restates the law, and frames the covenant in terms of blessing and curse before Israel enters Canaan.

第1章
1
以下所记的、是摩西在约但河东的旷野、疏弗对面的亚拉巴、就是巴兰、陀弗、拉班、哈洗录、底撒哈中间、向以色列众人所说的话。
These are the words which Moses spake unto all Israel beyond the Jordan in the wilderness, in the Arabah over against Suph, between Paran, and Tophel, and Laban, and Hazeroth, and Di-zahab.
2
从何烈山经过西珥山、到加低斯巴尼亚、有十一天的路程。
It is eleven days` [journey] from Horeb by the way of mount Seir unto Kadesh-barnea.
3
出埃及第四十年十一月初一日、摩西照耶和华借着他所吩咐以色列人的话、都晓谕他们。
And it came to pass in the fortieth year, in the eleventh month, on the first day of the month, that Moses spake unto the children of Israel, according unto all that Jehovah had given him in commandment unto them;
4
那时、他已经击杀了住希实本的亚摩利王西宏、和住以得来亚斯他录的巴珊王噩。
after he had smitten Sihon the king of the Amorites, who dwelt in Heshbon, and Og the king of Bashan, who dwelt in Ashtaroth, at Edrei.
5
摩西在约但河东的摩押地、讲律法说、
Beyond the Jordan, in the land of Moab, began Moses to declare this law, saying,
6
耶和华我们的 神在何烈山晓谕我们说、你们在这山上住的日子彀了.
Jehovah our God spake unto us in Horeb, saying, Ye have dwelt long enough in this mountain:
7
要起行转到亚摩利人的山地、和靠近这山地的各处、就是亚拉巴、山地、高原、南地、沿海一带迦南人的地、并利巴嫩山又到伯拉大河.
turn you, and take your journey, and go to the hill-country of the Amorites, and unto all [the places] nigh thereunto, in the Arabah, in the hill-country, and in the lowland, and in the South, and by the sea-shore, the land of the Canaanites, and Lebanon, as far as the great river, the river Euphrates.
8
如今我将这地摆在你们面前、你们要进去得这地、就是耶和华向你们列祖亚伯拉罕、以撒、雅各、起誓应许赐给他们和他们后裔为业之地。
Behold, I have set the land before you: go in and possess the land which Jehovah sware unto your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give unto them and to their seed after them.
9
那时我对你们说、管理你们的重任、我独自担当不起。
And I spake unto you at that time, saying, I am not able to bear you myself alone:
10
耶和华你们的 神使你们多起来、看哪、你们今日像天上的星那样多。
Jehovah your God hath multiplied you, and, behold, ye are this day as the stars of heaven for multitude.
11
惟愿耶和华你们列祖的 神、使你们比如今更多千倍、照他所应许你们的话、赐福与你们。
Jehovah, the God of your fathers, make you a thousand times as many as ye are, and bless you, as he hath promised you!
12
但你们的麻烦、和管理你们的重任、并你们的争讼、我独自一人怎能担当得起呢。
How can I myself alone bear your cumbrance, and your burden, and your strife?
13
你们要按着各支派、选举有智慧、有见识、为众人所认识的、我立他们为你们的首领。
Take you wise men, and understanding, and known, according to your tribes, and I will make them heads over you.
14
你们回答我说、照你所说的行了为妙。
And ye answered me, and said, The thing which thou hast spoken is good [for us] to do.
15
我便将你们各支派的首领、有智慧为众人所认识的、照你们的支派、立他们为官长、千夫长、百夫长、五十夫长、十夫长、管理你们。
So I took the heads of your tribes, wise men, and known, and made them heads over you, captains of thousands, and captains of hundreds, and captains of fifties, and captains of tens, and officers, according to your tribes.
16
当时、我嘱咐你们的审判官说、你们听讼、无论是弟兄彼此争讼、是与同居的外人争讼、都要按公义判断。
And I charged your judges at that time, saying, Hear [the causes] between your brethren, and judge righteously between a man and his brother, and the sojourner that is with him.
17
审判的时候、不可看人的外貌、听讼不可分贵贱、不可惧怕人、因为审判是属乎 神的.若有难断的案件、可以呈到我这里、我就判断。
Ye shall not respect persons in judgment; ye shall hear the small and the great alike; ye shall not be afraid of the face of man; for the judgment is God`s: and the cause that is too hard for you ye shall bring unto me, and I will hear it.
18
那时、我将你们所当行的事、都吩咐你们了。
And I commanded you at that time all the things which ye should do.
19
我们照着耶和华我们 神所吩咐的、从何烈山起行、经过你们所看见那大而可怕的旷野、往亚摩利人的山地去、到了加低斯巴尼亚。
And we journeyed from Horeb, and went through all that great and terrible wilderness which ye saw, by the way to the hill-country of the Amorites, as Jehovah our God commanded us; and we came to Kadesh-barnea.
20
我对你们说、你们已经到了耶和华我们 神所赐给我们的亚摩利人之山地。
And I said unto you, Ye are come unto the hill-country of the Amorites, which Jehovah our God giveth unto us.
21
看哪、耶和华你的 神已将那地摆在你面前、你要照耶和华你列祖的 神所说的上去得那地为业.不要惧怕、也不要惊惶。
Behold, Jehovah thy God hath set the land before thee: go up, take possession, as Jehovah, the God of thy fathers, hath spoken unto thee; fear not, neither be dismayed.
22
你们都就近我来说、我们要先打发人去、为我们窥探那地、将我们上去该走何道、必进何城、都回报我们。
And ye came near unto me every one of you, and said, Let us send men before us, that they may search the land for us, and bring us word again of the way by which we must go up, and the cities unto which we shall come.
23
这话我以为美、就从你们中间选了十二个人、每支派一人。
And the thing pleased me well; and I took twelve men of you, one man for every tribe:
24
于是他们起身上山地去、到以实各谷、窥探那地。
and they turned and went up into the hill-country, and came unto the valley of Eshcol, and spied it out.
25
他们手里拿着那地的果子下来、到我们那里、回报说、耶和华我们的 神所赐给我们的是美地。
And they took of the fruit of the land in their hands, and brought it down unto us, and brought us word again, and said, It is a good land which Jehovah our God giveth unto us.
26
你们却不肯上去、竟违背了耶和华你们 神的命令.
Yet ye would not go up, but rebelled against the commandment of Jehovah your God:
27
在帐棚内发怨言、说、耶和华因为恨我们、所以将我们从埃及地领出来、要交在亚摩利人手中、除灭我们。
and ye murmured in your tents, and said, Because Jehovah hated us, he hath brought us forth out of the land of Egypt, to deliver us into the hand of the Amorites, to destroy us.
28
我们上那里去呢.我们的弟兄使我们的心消化、说、那地的民比我们又大又高、城邑又广大又坚固、高得顶天、并且我们在那里看见亚衲族的人。
Whither are we going up? our brethren have made our heart to melt, saying, The people are greater and taller than we; the cities are great and fortified up to heaven; and moreover we have seen the sons of the Anakim there.
29
我就对你们说、不要惊恐、也不要怕他们。
Then I said unto you, Dread not, neither be afraid of them.
30
在你们前面行的耶和华你们的 神、必为你们争战、正如他在埃及和旷野、在你们眼前所行的一样.
Jehovah your God who goeth before you, he will fight for you, according to all that he did for you in Egypt before your eyes,
31
你们在旷野所行的路上、也曾见耶和华你们的 神、抚养你们、如同人抚养儿子一般、直等你们来到这地方。
and in the wilderness, where thou hast seen how that Jehovah thy God bare thee, as a man doth bear his son, in all the way that ye went, until ye came unto this place.
32
你们在这事上却不信耶和华你们的 神。
Yet in this thing ye did not believe Jehovah your God,
33
他在路上、在你们前面行、为你们找安营的地方、夜间在火柱里、日间在云柱里、指示你们所当行的路。
who went before you in the way, to seek you out a place to pitch your tents in, in fire by night, to show you by what way ye should go, and in the cloud by day.
34
耶和华听见你们这话、就发怒起誓说、
And Jehovah heard the voice of your words, and was wroth, and sware, saying,
35
这恶世代的人、连一个也不得见我起誓应许赐给你们列祖的美地.
Surely there shall not one of these men of this evil generation see the good land, which I sware to give unto your fathers,
36
惟有耶孚尼的儿子迦勒、必得看见、并且我要将他所踏过的地赐给他、和他的子孙、因为他专心跟从我。
save Caleb the son of Jephunneh: he shall see it; and to him will I give the land that he hath trodden upon, and to his children, because he hath wholly followed Jehovah.
37
耶和华为你的缘故、也向我发怒、说、你必不得进入那地。
Also Jehovah was angry with me for your sakes, saying, Thou also shalt not go in thither:
38
伺候你嫩的儿子约书亚、他必得进入那地、你要勉励他、因为他要使以色列人承受那地为业。
Joshua the son of Nun, who standeth before thee, he shall go in thither: encourage thou him; for he shall cause Israel to inherit it.
39
并且你们的妇人孩子、就是你们所说必被掳掠的、和今日不知善恶的儿女、必进入那地、我要将那地赐给他们、他们必得为业。
Moreover your little ones, that ye said should be a prey, and your children, that this day have no knowledge of good or evil, they shall go in thither, and unto them will I give it, and they shall possess it.
40
至于你们、要转回、从红海的路往旷野去。
But as for you, turn you, and take your journey into the wilderness by the way to the Red Sea.
41
那时、你们回答我说、我们得罪了耶和华、情愿照耶和华我们 神一切所吩咐的、上去争战、于是你们各人带着兵器、争先上山地去了。
Then ye answered and said unto me, We have sinned against Jehovah, we will go up and fight, according to all that Jehovah our God commanded us. And ye girded on every man his weapons of war, and were forward to go up into the hill-country.
42
耶和华吩咐我说、你对他们说、不要上去、也不要争战、因我不在你们中间、恐怕你们被仇敌杀败了。
And Jehovah said unto me, Say unto them, Go not up, neither fight; for I am not among you; lest ye be smitten before your enemies.
43
我就告诉了你们、你们却不听从、竟违背耶和华的命令、擅自上山地去了。
So I spake unto you, and ye hearkened not; but ye rebelled against the commandment of Jehovah, and were presumptuous, and went up into the hill-country.
44
住那山地的亚摩利人、就出来攻击你们、追赶你们如蜂拥一般、在西珥杀退你们、直到何珥玛。
And the Amorites, that dwelt in that hill-country, came out against you, and chased you, as bees do, and beat you down in Seir, even unto Hormah.
45
你们便回来、在耶和华面前哭号、耶和华却不听你们的声音、也不向你们侧耳。
And ye returned and wept before Jehovah; but Jehovah hearkened not to your voice, nor gave ear unto you.
46
于是你们在加低斯住了许多日子。
So ye abode in Kadesh many days, according unto the days that ye abode [there].
第2章
1
此后、我们转回、从红海的路往旷野去、是照耶和华所吩咐我的.我们在西珥山绕行了许多日子。
Then we turned, and took our journey into the wilderness by the way to the Red Sea, as Jehovah spake unto me; and we compassed mount Seir many days.
2
耶和华对我说、
And Jehovah spake unto me, saying,
3
你们绕行这山的日子彀了、要转向北去。
Ye have compassed this mountain long enough: turn you northward.
4
你吩咐百姓说、你们弟兄以扫的子孙、住在西珥、你们要经过他们的境界.他们必惧怕你们、所以你们要分外谨慎。
And command thou the people, saying, Ye are to pass through the border of your brethren the children of Esau, that dwell in Seir; and they will be afraid of you: take ye good heed unto yourselves therefore;
5
不可与他们争战、他们的地、连脚掌可踏之处、我都不给你们、因我已将西珥山赐给以扫为业。
contend not with them; for I will not give you of their land, no, not so much as for the sole of the foot to tread on; because I have given mount Seir unto Esau for a possession.
6
你们要用钱向他们买粮吃、也要用钱向他们买水喝。
Ye shall purchase food of them for money, that ye may eat; and ye shall also buy water of them for money, that ye may drink.
7
因为耶和华你的 神、在你手里所办的一切事上、已赐福与你.你走这大旷野他都知道了.这四十年、耶和华你的 神常与你同在、故此你一无所缺。
For Jehovah thy God hath blessed thee in all the work of thy hand; he hath known thy walking through this great wilderness: these forty years Jehovah thy God hath been with thee; thou hast lacked nothing.
8
于是我们离了我们弟兄以扫子孙所住的西珥、从亚拉巴的路、经过以拉他、以旬迦别、转向摩押旷野的路去。
So we passed by from our brethren the children of Esau, that dwell in Seir, from the way of the Arabah from Elath and from Ezion-geber. And we turned and passed by the way of the wilderness of Moab.
9
耶和华吩咐我说、不可扰害摩押人、也不可与他们争战.他们的地我不赐给你为业、因我已将亚珥赐给罗得的子孙为业。
And Jehovah said unto me, Vex not Moab, neither contend with them in battle; for I will not give thee of his land for a possession; because I have given Ar unto the children of Lot for a possession.
10
(先前、有以米人住在那里、民数众多、身体高大、像亚衲人一样。
(The Emim dwelt therein aforetime, a people great, and many, and tall, as the Anakim:
11
这以米人像亚衲人、也算为利乏音人、摩押人称他们为以米人。
these also are accounted Rephaim, as the Anakim; but the Moabites call them Emim.
12
先前、何利人也住在西珥、但以扫的子孙将他们除灭、得了他们的地、接着居住、就如以色列在耶和华赐给他为业之地所行的一样。)
The Horites also dwelt in Seir aforetime, but the children of Esau succeeded them; and they destroyed them from before them, and dwelt in their stead; as Israel did unto the land of his possession, which Jehovah gave unto them.)
13
现在起来过撒烈溪.于是我们过了撒烈溪。
Now rise up, and get you over the brook Zered. And we went over the brook Zered.
14
自从离开加低斯巴尼亚、到过了撒烈溪的时候、共有三十八年、等那世代的兵丁、都从营中灭尽、正如耶和华向他们所起的誓。
And the days in which we came from Kadesh-barnea, until we were come over the brook Zered, were thirty and eight years; until all the generation of the men of war were consumed from the midst of the camp, as Jehovah sware unto them.
15
耶和华的手也攻击他们、将他们从营中除灭、直到灭尽。
Moreover the hand of Jehovah was against them, to destroy them from the midst of the camp, until they were consumed.
16
兵丁从民中都灭尽死亡以后、
So it came to pass, when all the men of war were consumed and dead from among the people,
17
耶和华吩咐我说、
that Jehovah spake unto me, saying,
18
你今天要从摩押的境界亚珥经过、
Thou art this day to pass over Ar, the border of Moab:
19
走近亚扪人之地、不可扰害他们、也不可与他们争战、亚扪人的地我不赐给你们为业、因我已将那地赐给罗得的子孙为业。
and when thou comest nigh over against the children of Ammon, vex them not, nor contend with them; for I will not give thee of the land of the children of Ammon for a possession; because I have given it unto the children of Lot for a possession.
20
(那地也算为利乏音人之地、先前、利乏音人住在那里、亚扪人称他们为散送冥。
(That also is accounted a land of Rephaim: Rephaim dwelt therein aforetime; but the Ammonites call them Zamzummim,
21
那民众多身体高大、像亚衲人一样、但耶和华从亚扪人面前除灭他们、亚扪人就得了他们的地、接着居住.
a people great, and many, and tall, as the Anakim; but Jehovah destroyed them before them; and they succeeded them, and dwelt in their stead;
22
正如耶和华从前为住西珥的以扫子孙、将何利人从他们面前除灭.他们得了何利人的地、接着居住一样、直到今日。
as he did for the children of Esau, that dwell in Seir, when he destroyed the Horites from before them; and they succeeded them, and dwelt in their stead even unto this day:
23
从迦斐托出来的迦斐托人、将先前住在乡村直到迦萨的亚卫人除灭、接着居住。)
and the Avvim, that dwelt in villages as far as Gaza, the Caphtorim, that came forth out of Caphtor, destroyed them, and dwelt in their stead.)
24
你们起来前往、过亚嫩谷、我已将亚摩利人希实本王西宏、和他的地、交在你手中、你要与他争战得他的地为业。
Rise ye up, take your journey, and pass over the valley of the Arnon: behold, I have given into thy hand Sihon the Amorite, king of Heshbon, and his land; begin to possess it, and contend with him in battle.
25
从今日起我要使天下万民、听见你的名声都惊恐、惧怕、且因你发颤伤恸。
This day will I begin to put the dread of thee and the fear of thee upon the peoples that are under the whole heaven, who shall hear the report of thee, and shall tremble, and be in anguish because of thee.
26
我从基底莫的旷野、差遣使者去见希实本王西宏、用和睦的话说、
And I sent messengers out of the wilderness of Kedemoth unto Sihon king of Heshbon with words of peace, saying,
27
求你容我从你的地经过、只走大道、不偏左右。
Let me pass through thy land: I will go along by the highway, I will turn neither unto the right hand nor to the left.
28
你可以卖粮给我吃、也可以卖水给我喝、只要容我步行过去.
Thou shalt sell me food for money, that I may eat; and give me water for money, that I may drink: only let me pass through on my feet,
29
就如住西珥的以扫子孙、和住亚珥的摩押人待我一样、等我过了约但河、好进入耶和华我们 神所赐给我们的地。
as the children of Esau that dwell in Seir, and the Moabites that dwell in Ar, did unto me; until I shall pass over the Jordan into the land which Jehovah our God giveth us.
30
但希实本王西宏、不容我们从他那里经过、因为耶和华你的 神使他心中刚硬、性情顽梗、为要将他交在你手中、像今日一样。
But Sihon king of Heshbon would not let us pass by him; for Jehovah thy God hardened his spirit, and made his heart obstinate, that he might deliver him into thy hand, as at this day.
31
耶和华对我说、从此起首、我要将西宏和他的地、交给你、你要得他的地为业。
And Jehovah said unto me, Behold, I have begun to deliver up Sihon and his land before thee: begin to possess, that thou mayest inherit his land.
32
那时西宏和他的众民、出来攻击我们、在雅杂与我们交战。
Then Sihon came out against us, he and all his people, unto battle at Jahaz.
33
耶和华我们的 神、将他交给我们、我们就把他和他的儿子、并他的众民都击杀了。
And Jehovah our God delivered him up before us; and we smote him, and his sons, and all his people.
34
我们夺了他的一切城邑、将有人烟的各城、连女人带孩子、尽都毁灭、没有留下一个。
And we took all his cities at that time, and utterly destroyed every inhabited city, with the women and the little ones; we left none remaining:
35
惟有牲畜、和所夺的各城、并其中的财物、都取为自己的掠物。
only the cattle we took for a prey unto ourselves, with the spoil of the cities which we had taken.
36
从亚嫩谷边的亚罗珥、和谷中的城、直到基列、耶和华我们的 神都交给我们了、没有一座城高得使我们不能攻取的。
From Aroer, which is on the edge of the valley of the Arnon, and [from] the city that is in the valley, even unto Gilead, there was not a city too high for us; Jehovah our God delivered up all before us:
37
惟有亚扪人之地、凡靠近雅博河的地、并山地的城邑、与耶和华我们 神所禁止我们去的地方、都没有挨近。
only to the land of the children of Ammon thou camest not near; all the side of the river Jabbok, and the cities of the hill-country, and wheresoever Jehovah our God forbade us.
第3章
1
以后我们转回向巴珊去、巴珊王噩和他的众民都出来、在以得来与我们交战。
Then we turned, and went up the way to Bashan: and Og the king of Bashan came out against us, he and all his people, unto battle at Edrei.
2
耶和华对我说、不要怕他、因我已将他和他的众民、并他的地、都交在你手中、你要待他像从前待住希实本的亚摩利王西宏一样。
And Jehovah said unto me, Fear him not; for I have delivered him, and all his people, and his land, into thy hand; and thou shalt do unto him as thou didst unto Sihon king of the Amorites, who dwelt at Heshbon.
3
于是耶和华我们的 神、也将巴珊王噩、和他的众民、都交在我们手中、我们杀了他们、没有留下一个。
So Jehovah our God delivered into our hand Og also, the king of Bashan, and all his people: and we smote him until none was left to him remaining.
4
那时我们夺了他所有的城、共有六十座、没有一座城不被我们所夺、这为亚珥歌伯的全境、就是巴珊地、噩王的国。
And we took all his cities at that time; there was not a city which we took not from them; threescore cities, all the region of Argob, the kingdom of Og in Bashan.
5
这些城都有坚固的高墙、有门有闩.此外还有许多无城墙的乡村。
All these were cities fortified with high walls, gates, and bars; besides the unwalled towns a great many.
6
我们将这些都毁灭了、像从前待希实本王西宏一样、把有人烟的各城、连女人带孩子、尽都毁灭。
And we utterly destroyed them, as we did unto Sihon king of Heshbon, utterly destroying every inhabited city, with the women and the little ones.
7
惟有一切牲畜、和城中的财物、都取为自己的掠物。
But all the cattle, and the spoil of the cities, we took for a prey unto ourselves.
8
那时我们从约但河东两个亚摩利王的手、将亚嫩谷直到黑门山之地夺过来。
And we took the land at that time out of the hand of the two kings of the Amorites that were beyond the Jordan, from the valley of the Arnon unto mount Hermon;
9
(这黑门山、西顿人称为西连、亚摩利人称为示尼珥。)
([which] Hermon the Sidonians call Sirion, and the Amorites call it Senir;)
10
就是夺了平原的各城、基列全地、巴珊全地、直到撒迦、和以得来、都是巴珊王噩国内的城邑。
all the cities of the plain, and all Gilead, and all Bashan, unto Salecah and Edrei, cities of the kingdom of Og in Bashan.
11
(利乏音人所剩下的、只有巴珊王噩.他的床是铁的、长九肘、宽四肘、都是以人肘为度.现今岂不是在亚扪人的拉巴么。)
(For only Og king of Bashan remained of the remnant of the Rephaim; behold, his bedstead was a bedstead of iron; is it not in Rabbah of the children of Ammon? nine cubits was the length thereof, and four cubits the breadth of it, after the cubit of a man.)
12
那时我们得了这地.从亚嫩谷边的亚罗珥起、我将基列山地的一半、并其中的城邑、都给了流便人、和迦得人。
And this land we took in possession at that time: from Aroer, which is by the valley of the Arnon, and half the hill-country of Gilead, and the cities thereof, gave I unto the Reubenites and to the Gadites:
13
其馀的基列地、和巴珊全地、就是噩王的国、我给了玛拿西半支派.亚珥歌伯全地乃是巴珊全地、这叫作利乏音人之地。
and the rest of Gilead, and all Bashan, the kingdom of Og, gave I unto the half-tribe of Manasseh; all the region of Argob, even all Bashan. (The same is called the land of Rephaim.
14
玛拿西的子孙睚珥、占了亚珥歌伯全境、直到基述人、和玛迦人的交界、就按自己的名称这巴珊地为哈倭特睚珥、直到今日。
Jair the son of Manasseh took all the region of Argob, unto the border of the Geshurites and the Maacathites, and called them, even Bashan, after his own name, Havvoth-jair, unto this day.)
15
我又将基列给了玛吉。
And I gave Gilead unto Machir.
16
从基列到亚嫩谷、以谷中为界、直到亚扪人交界的雅博河、我给了流便人、和迦得人.
And unto the Reubenites and unto the Gadites I gave from Gilead even unto the valley of the Arnon, the middle of the valley, and the border [thereof], even unto the river Jabbok, which is the border of the children of Ammon;
17
又将亚拉巴、和靠近约但河之地、从基尼烈直到亚拉巴海、就是盐海、并毘斯迦山根东边之地.都给了他们。
the Arabah also, and the Jordan and the border [thereof], from Chinnereth even unto the sea of the Arabah, the Salt Sea, under the slopes of Pisgah eastward.
18
那时我吩咐你们说、耶和华你们的 神、已将这地赐给你们为业.你们所有的勇士、都要带着兵器、在你们的弟兄以色列人前面过去。
And I commanded you at that time, saying, Jehovah your God hath given you this land to possess it: ye shall pass over armed before your brethren the children of Israel, all the men of valor.
19
但你们的妻子、孩子、牲畜(我知道你们有许多的牲畜)可以住在我所赐给你们的各城里.
But your wives, and your little ones, and your cattle, (I know that ye have much cattle,) shall abide in your cities which I have given you,
20
等到你们弟兄在约但河那边、也得耶和华你们 神所赐给他们的地、又使他们得享平安、与你们一样、你们才可以回到我所赐给你们为业之地。
until Jehovah give rest unto your brethren, as unto you, and they also possess the land which Jehovah your God giveth them beyond the Jordan: then shall ye return every man unto his possession, which I have given you.
21
那时我吩咐约书亚说、你亲眼看见了耶和华你 神向这二王所行的、耶和华也必向你所要去的各国照样行。
And I commanded Joshua at that time, saying, Thine eyes have seen all that Jehovah your God hath done unto these two kings: so shall Jehovah do unto all the kingdoms whither thou goest over.
22
你不要怕他们、因那为你争战的、是耶和华你的 神。
Ye shall not fear them; for Jehovah your God, he it is that fighteth for you.
23
那时我恳求耶和华说、
And I besought Jehovah at that time, saying,
24
主耶和华阿、你已将你的大力大能显给仆人看、在天上、在地下、有甚么神能像你行事、像你有大能的作为呢。
O Lord Jehovah, thou hast begun to show thy servant thy greatness, and thy strong hand: for what god is there in heaven or in earth, that can do according to thy works, and according to thy mighty acts?
25
求你容我过去、看约但河那边的美地、就是那佳美的山地、和利巴嫩。
Let me go over, I pray thee, and see the good land that is beyond the Jordan, that goodly mountain, and Lebanon.
26
但耶和华因你们的缘故向我发怒、不应允我、对我说、罢了、你不要向我再题这事。
But Jehovah was wroth with me for your sakes, and hearkened not unto me; and Jehovah said unto me, Let it suffice thee; speak no more unto me of this matter.
27
你且上毘斯迦山顶去、向东、西、南、北、举目观望、因为你必不能过这约但河。
Get thee up unto the top of Pisgah, and lift up thine eyes westward, and northward, and southward, and eastward, and behold with thine eyes: for thou shalt not go over this Jordan.
28
你却要嘱咐约书亚、勉励他、使他胆壮、因为他必在这百姓前面过去使他们承受你所要观看之地。
But charge Joshua, and encourage him, and strengthen him; for he shall go over before this people, and he shall cause them to inherit the land which thou shalt see.
29
于是我们住在伯毘珥对面的谷中。
So we abode in the valley over against Beth-peor.
第4章
1
以色列人哪、现在我所教训你们的律例、典章、你们要听从遵行、好叫你们存活、得以进入耶和华你们列祖之 神所赐给你们的地、承受为业。
And now, O Israel, hearken unto the statutes and unto the ordinances, which I teach you, to do them; that ye may live, and go in and possess the land which Jehovah, the God of your fathers, giveth you.
2
所吩咐你们的话、你们不可加添、也不可删减、好叫你们遵守我所吩咐的、就是耶和华你们 神的命令。
Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish from it, that ye may keep the commandments of Jehovah your God which I command you.
3
耶和华因巴力毘珥的事所行的、你们亲眼看见了、凡随从巴力毘珥的人、耶和华你们的 神都从你们中间除灭了。
Your eyes have seen what Jehovah did because of Baal-peor; for all the men that followed Baal-peor, Jehovah thy God hath destroyed them from the midst of thee.
4
惟有你们专靠耶和华你们 神的人、今日全都存活。
But ye that did cleave unto Jehovah your God are alive every one of you this day.
5
我照着耶和华我 神所吩咐的、将律例、典章、教训你们、使你们在所要进去得为业的地上遵行。
Behold, I have taught you statutes and ordinances, even as Jehovah my God commanded me, that ye should do so in the midst of the land whither ye go in to possess it.
6
所以你们要谨守遵行、这就是你们在万民眼前的智慧、聪明.他们听见这一切律例、必说、这大国的人真是有智慧、有聪明。
Keep therefore and do them; for this is your wisdom and your understanding in the sight of the peoples, that shall hear all these statutes, and say, Surely this great nation is a wise and understanding people.
7
那一大国的人有神与他们相近、像耶和华我们的 神、在我们求告他的时候与我们相近呢。
For what great nation is there, that hath a god so nigh unto them, as Jehovah our God is whensoever we call upon him?
8
又那一大国有这样公义的律例、典章、像我今日在你们面前所陈明的这一切律法呢。
And what great nation is there, that hath statutes and ordinances so righteous as all this law, which I set before you this day?
9
你只要谨慎、殷勤保守你的心灵、免得忘记你亲眼所看见的事、又免得你一生、这事离开你的心.总要传给你的子子孙孙。
Only take heed to thyself, and keep thy soul diligently, lest thou forget the things which thine eyes saw, and lest they depart from thy heart all the days of thy life; but make them known unto thy children and thy children`s children;
10
你在何烈山站在耶和华你 神面前的那日.耶和华对我说、你为我招聚百姓、我要叫他们听见我的话、使他们存活在世的日子、可以学习敬畏我、又可以教训儿女这样行。
the day that thou stoodest before Jehovah thy God in Horeb, when Jehovah said unto me, Assemble me the people, and I will make them hear my words, that they may learn to fear me all the days that they live upon the earth, and that they may teach their children.
11
那时你们近前来、站在山下、山上有火焰冲天、并有昏黑、密云、幽暗。
And ye came near and stood under the mountain; and the mountain burned with fire unto the heart of heaven, with darkness, cloud, and thick darkness.
12
耶和华从火焰中对你们说话、你们只听见声音、却没有看见形像。
And Jehovah spake unto you out of the midst of the fire: ye heard the voice of words, but ye saw no form; only [ye heard] a voice.
13
他将所吩咐你们当守的约、指示你们、就是十条诫.并将这诫写在两块石版上。
And he declared unto you his covenant, which he commanded you to perform, even the ten commandments; and he wrote them upon two tables of stone.
14
那时耶和华又吩咐我将律例、典章教训你们、使你们在所要过去得为业的地上遵行。
And Jehovah commanded me at that time to teach you statutes and ordinances, that ye might do them in the land whither ye go over to possess it.
15
所以你们要分外谨慎、因为耶和华在何烈山、从火中对你们说话的那日、你们没有看见甚么形像。
Take ye therefore good heed unto yourselves; for ye saw no manner of form on the day that Jehovah spake unto you in Horeb out of the midst of the fire.
16
惟恐你们败坏自己、雕刻偶像、仿佛甚么男像、女像、
Lest ye corrupt yourselves, and make you a graven image in the form of any figure, the likeness of male or female,
17
或地上走兽的像、或空中飞鸟的像、
the likeness of any beast that is on the earth, the likeness of any winged bird that flieth in the heavens,
18
或地上爬物的像、或地底下水中鱼的像。
the likeness of anything that creepeth on the ground, the likeness of any fish that is in the water under the earth;
19
又恐怕你向天举目观看、见耶和华你的 神为天下万民所摆列的日月星、就是天上的万象.自己便被勾引敬拜事奉他。
and lest thou lift up thine eyes unto heaven, and when thou seest the sun and the moon and the stars, even all the host of heaven, thou be drawn away and worship them, and serve them, which Jehovah thy God hath allotted unto all the peoples under the whole heaven.
20
耶和华将你们从埃及领出来脱离铁炉、要特作自己产业的子民、像今日一样。
But Jehovah hath taken you, and brought you forth out of the iron furnace, out of Egypt, to be unto him a people of inheritance, as at this day.
21
耶和华又因你们的缘故、向我发怒起誓、必不容我过约但河、也不容我进入耶和华你 神所赐你为业的那美地。
Furthermore Jehovah was angry with me for your sakes, and sware that I should not go over the Jordan, and that I should not go in unto that good land, which Jehovah thy God giveth thee for an inheritance:
22
我只得死在这地、不能过约但河.但你们必过去得那美地。
but I must die in this land, I must not go over the Jordan; but ye shall go over, and possess that good land.
23
你们要谨慎、免得忘记耶和华你们 神与你们所立的约、为自己雕刻偶像、就是耶和华你 神所禁止你作的偶像、
Take heed unto yourselves, lest ye forget the covenant of Jehovah your God, which he made with you, and make you a graven image in the form of anything which Jehovah thy God hath forbidden thee.
24
因为耶和华你的 神乃是烈火、是忌邪的 神。
For Jehovah thy God is a devouring fire, a jealous God.
25
你们在那地住久了、生子生孙、就雕刻偶像仿佛甚么形像、败坏自己、行耶和华你 神眼中看为恶的事、惹他发怒。
When thou shalt beget children, and children`s children, and ye shall have been long in the land, and shall corrupt yourselves, and make a graven image in the form of anything, and shall do that which is evil in the sight of Jehovah thy God, to provoke him to anger;
26
我今日呼天唤地向你们作见证、你们必在过约但河得为业的地上、速速灭尽.你们不能在那地上长久、必尽行除灭。
I call heaven and earth to witness against you this day, that ye shall soon utterly perish from off the land whereunto ye go over the Jordan to possess it; ye shall not prolong your days upon it, but shall utterly be destroyed.
27
耶和华必使你们分散在万民中、在他所领你们到的万国里、你们剩下的人数稀少。
And Jehovah will scatter you among the peoples, and ye shall be left few in number among the nations, whither Jehovah shall lead you away.
28
在那里你们必事奉人手所造的神、就是用木石造成、不能看、不能听、不能吃、不能闻的神。
And there ye shall serve gods, the work of men`s hands, wood and stone, which neither see, nor hear, nor eat, nor smell.
29
但你们在那里必寻求耶和华你的 神.你尽心尽性寻求他的时候、就必寻见。
But from thence ye shall seek Jehovah thy God, and thou shalt find him, when thou searchest after him with all thy heart and with all thy soul.
30
日后你遭遇一切患难的时候、你必归回耶和华你的 神、听从他的话。
When thou art in tribulation, and all these things are come upon thee, in the latter days thou shalt return to Jehovah thy God, and hearken unto his voice:
31
耶和华你 神原是有怜悯的 神、他总不撇下你、不灭绝你、也不忘记他起誓与你列祖所立的约。
for Jehovah thy God is a merciful God; he will not fail thee, neither destroy thee, nor forget the covenant of thy fathers which he sware unto them.
32
你且考察在你以前的世代、自 神造人在世以来、从天这边到天那边、曾有何民听见 神在火中说话的声音、像你听见、还能存活呢.这样的大事、何曾有、何曾听见呢。
For ask now of the days that are past, which were before thee, since the day that God created man upon the earth, and from the one end of heaven unto the other, whether there hath been [any such thing] as this great thing is, or hath been heard like it?
33
你且考察在你以前的世代、自 神造人在世以来、从天这边到天那边、曾有何民听见 神在火中说话的声音、像你听见、还能存活呢.这样的大事、何曾有、何曾听见呢。
Did ever a people hear the voice of God speaking out of the midst of the fire, as thou hast heard, and live?
34
神何曾从别的国中将一国的人民领出来、用试验、神迹、奇事、争战、大能的手、和伸出来的膀臂、并大可畏的事、像耶和华你们的 神在埃及、在你们眼前为你们所行的一切事呢。
Or hath God assayed to go and take him a nation from the midst of [another] nation, by trials, by signs, and by wonders, and by war, and by a mighty hand, and by an outstretched arm, and by great terrors, according to all that Jehovah your God did for you in Egypt before your eyes?
35
这是显给你看、要使你知道惟有耶和华他是 神、除他以外、再无别神。
Unto thee it was showed, that thou mightest know that Jehovah he is God; there is none else besides him.
36
他从天上使你听见他的声音、为要教训你、又在地上使你看见他的烈火、并且听见他从火中所说的话。
Out of heaven he made thee to hear his voice, that he might instruct thee: and upon earth he made thee to see his great fire; and thou heardest his words out of the midst of the fire.
37
因他爱你的列祖、所以拣选他们的后裔、用大能亲自领你出了埃及、
And because he loved thy fathers, therefore he chose their seed after them, and brought thee out with his presence, with his great power, out of Egypt;
38
要将比你强大的国民、从你面前赶出、领你进去、将他们的地赐你为业、像今日一样。
to drive out nations from before thee greater and mightier than thou, to bring thee in, to give thee their land for an inheritance, as at this day.
39
所以今日你要知道、也要记在心上、天上地下、惟有耶和华他是 神、除他以外、再无别神。
Know therefore this day, and lay it to thy heart, that Jehovah he is God in heaven above and upon the earth beneath; there is none else.
40
我今日将他的律例、诫命、晓谕你、你要遵守、使你和你的子孙可以得福、并使你的日子、在耶和华你 神所赐的地上、得以长久。
And thou shalt keep his statutes, and his commandments, which I command thee this day, that it may go well with thee, and with thy children after thee, and that thou mayest prolong thy days in the land, which Jehovah thy God giveth thee, for ever.
41
那时摩西在约但河东、向日出之地、分定三座城、
Then Moses set apart three cities beyond the Jordan toward the sunrising;
42
使那素无仇恨、无心杀了人的、可以逃到这三城之中的一座城、就得存活。
that the manslayer might flee thither, that slayeth his neighbor unawares, and hated him not in time past; and that fleeing unto one of these cities he might live:
43
为流便人、分定旷野平原的比悉.为迦得人、分定基列的拉末.为玛拿西人、分定巴珊的哥兰。
[namely], Bezer in the wilderness, in the plain country, for the Reubenites; and Ramoth in Gilead, for the Gadites; and Golan in Bashan, for the Manassites.
44
摩西在以色列人面前所陈明的律法、
And this is the law which Moses set before the children of Israel:
45
就是摩西在以色列人出埃及后、所传给他们的法度、律例、典章。
these are the testimonies, and the statutes, and the ordinances, which Moses spake unto the children of Israel, when they came forth out of Egypt,
46
在约但河东伯毘珥对面的谷中、在住希实本亚摩利王西宏之地.这西宏、是摩西和以色列人出埃及后所击杀的。
beyond the Jordan, in the valley over against Beth-peor, in the land of Sihon king of the Amorites, who dwelt at Heshbon, whom Moses and the children of Israel smote, when they came forth out of Egypt.
47
他们得了他的地、又得了巴珊王噩的地、就是两个亚摩利王、在约但河东向日出之地.
And they took his land in possession, and the land of Og king of Bashan, the two kings of the Amorites, who were beyond the Jordan toward the sunrising;
48
从亚嫩谷边的亚罗珥、直到西云山、就是黑门山.
from Aroer, which is on the edge of the valley of the Arnon, even unto mount Sion (the same is Hermon),
49
还有约但河东的全亚拉巴、直到亚拉巴海、靠近毘斯迦山根。
and all the Arabah beyond the Jordan eastward, even unto the sea of the Arabah, under the slopes of Pisgah.
第5章
1
摩西将以色列众人召了来、对他们说、以色列人哪、我今日晓谕你们的律例、典章、你们要听、可以学习、谨守遵行。
And Moses called unto all Israel, and said unto them, Hear, O Israel, the statutes and the ordinances which I speak in your ears this day, that ye may learn them, and observe to do them.
2
耶和华我们的 神在何烈山与我们立约。
Jehovah our God made a covenant with us in Horeb.
3
这约不是与我们列祖立的、乃是与我们今日在这里存活之人立的。
Jehovah made not this covenant with our fathers, but with us, even us, who are all of us here alive this day.
4
耶和华在山上、从火中、面对面与你们说话。
Jehovah spake with you face to face in the mount out of the midst of the fire,
5
(那时我站在耶和华和你们中间、要将耶和华的话传给你们、因为你们惧怕那火、没有上山)
(I stood between Jehovah and you at that time, to show you the word of Jehovah: for ye were afraid because of the fire, and went not up into the mount;) saying,
6
说、我是耶和华你的 神、曾将你从埃及地、为奴之家领出来。
I am Jehovah thy God, who brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
7
除了我以外、你不可有别的神。
Thou shalt have no other gods before me.
8
不可为自己雕刻偶像.也不可作甚么形像、仿佛上天、下地、和地底下水中的百物。
Thou shalt not make unto thee a graven image, [nor] any likeness [of anything] that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth:
9
不可跪拜那些像、也不可事奉他、因为我耶和华你的 神、是忌邪的 神、恨我的、我必追讨他的罪、自父及子、直到三四代.
thou shalt not bow down thyself unto them, nor serve them; for I, Jehovah, thy God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, and upon the third and upon the fourth generation of them that hate me;
10
爱我守我诫命的、我必向他们发慈爱直到千代、
and showing lovingkindness unto thousands of them that love me and keep my commandments.
11
不可妄称耶和华你 神的名、因为妄称耶和华名的、耶和华必不以他为无罪。
Thou shalt not take the name of Jehovah thy God in vain: for Jehovah will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.
12
当照耶和华你 神所吩咐的、守安息日为圣日。
Observe the sabbath day, to keep it holy, as Jehovah thy God commanded thee.
13
六日要劳碌作你一切的工、
Six days shalt thou labor, and do all thy work;
14
但第七日、是向耶和华你 神当守的安息日.这一日你和你的儿女、仆婢、牛、驴、牲畜、并在你城里寄居的客旅、无论何工都不可作、使你的仆婢可以和你一样安息。
but the seventh day is a sabbath unto Jehovah thy God: [in it] thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, nor thy man-servant, nor thy maid-servant, nor thine ox, nor thine ass, nor any of thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates; that thy man-servant and thy maid-servant may rest as well as thou.
15
你也要记念你在埃及地作过奴仆.耶和华你 神用大能的手、和伸出来的膀臂、将你从那里领出来、因此、耶和华你的 神吩咐你守安息日。
And thou shalt remember that thou wast a servant in the land of Egypt, and Jehovah thy God brought thee out thence by a mighty hand and by an outstretched arm: therefore Jehovah thy God commanded thee to keep the sabbath day.
16
当照耶和华你 神所吩咐的、孝敬父母、使你得福、并使你的日子在耶和华你 神所赐你的地上、得以长久。
Honor thy father and thy mother, as Jehovah thy God commanded thee; that thy days may be long, and that it may go well with thee, in the land which Jehovah thy God giveth thee.
17
不可杀人。
Thou shalt not kill.
18
不可奸淫。
Neither shalt thou commit adultery.
19
不可偷盗。
Neither shalt thou steal.
20
不可作假见证陷害人。
Neither shalt thou bear false witness against thy neighbor.
21
不可贪恋人的妻子、也不可贪图人的房屋、田地、仆婢、牛、驴、并他一切所有的。
Neither shalt thou covet thy neighbor`s wife; neither shalt thou desire thy neighbor`s house, his field, or his man-servant, or his maid-servant, his ox, or his ass, or anything that is thy neighbor`s.
22
这些话是耶和华在山上、从火中、云中、幽暗中、大声晓谕你们全会众的、此外并没有添别的话.他就把这话写在两块石版上、交给我了。
These words Jehovah spake unto all your assembly in the mount out of the midst of the fire, of the cloud, and of the thick darkness, with a great voice: and he added no more. And he wrote them upon two tables of stone, and gave them unto me.
23
那时火焰烧山、你们听见从黑暗中出来的声音、你们支派中所有的首领、和长老、都来就近我.
And it came to pass, when ye heard the voice out of the midst of the darkness, while the mountain was burning with fire, that ye came near unto me, even all the heads of your tribes, and your elders;
24
说、看哪、耶和华我们 神将他的荣光、和他的大能、显给我们看.我们又听见他的声音从火中出来.今日我们得见 神与人说话、人还存活。
and ye said, Behold, Jehovah our God hath showed us his glory and his greatness, and we have heard his voice out of the midst of the fire: we have seen this day that God doth speak with man, and he liveth.
25
现在这大火将要烧灭我们、我们何必冒死呢.若再听见耶和华我们 神的声音、就必死亡。
Now therefore why should we die? for this great fire will consume us: if we hear the voice of Jehovah our God any more, then we shall die.
26
凡属血气的、曾有何人听见永生 神的声音从火中出来、像我们听见、还能存活呢。
For who is there of all flesh, that hath heard the voice of the living God speaking out of the midst of the fire, as we have, and lived?
27
求你近前去、听耶和华我们 神所要说的一切话、将他对你说的话都传给我们、我们就听从遵行。
Go thou near, and hear all that Jehovah our God shall say: and speak thou unto us all that Jehovah our God shall speak unto thee; and we will hear it, and do it.
28
你们对我说的话、耶和华都听见了.耶和华对我说、这百姓的话我听见了、他们所说的、都是。
And Jehovah heard the voice of your words, when ye spake unto me; and Jehovah said unto me, I have heard the voice of the words of this people, which they have spoken unto thee: they have well said all that they have spoken.
29
惟愿他们存这样的心、敬畏我、常遵守我的一切诫命、使他们和他们的子孙、永远得福。
Oh that there were such a heart in them, that they would fear me, and keep all my commandments always, that it might be well with them, and with their children for ever!
30
你去对他们说、你们回帐棚去罢。
Go say to them, Return ye to your tents.
31
至于你、可以站在我这里、我要将一切诫命、律例、典章、传给你、你要教训他们、使他们在我赐他们为业的地上遵行。
But as for thee, stand thou here by me, and I will speak unto thee all the commandment, and the statutes, and the ordinances, which thou shalt teach them, that they may do them in the land which I give them to possess it.
32
所以你们要照耶和华你们 神所吩咐的谨守遵行.不可偏离左右。
Ye shall observe to do therefore as Jehovah your God hath commanded you: ye shall not turn aside to the right hand or to the left.
33
耶和华你们 神所吩咐你们行的、你们都要去行、使你们可以存活得福、并使你们的日子、在所要承受的地上、得以长久。
Ye shall walk in all the way which Jehovah your God hath commanded you, that ye may live, and that it may be well with you, and that ye may prolong your days in the land which ye shall possess.
第6章
1
这是耶和华你们 神所吩咐教训你们的诫命、律例、典章、使你们在所要过去得为业的地上、遵行.
Now this is the commandment, the statutes, and the ordinances, which Jehovah your God commanded to teach you, that ye might do them in the land whither ye go over to possess it;
2
好叫你和你子子孙孙、一生敬畏耶和华你的 神、谨守他的一切律例、诫命、就是我所吩咐你的、使你的日子得以长久。
that thou mightest fear Jehovah thy God, to keep all his statutes and his commandments, which I command thee, thou, and thy son, and thy son`s son, all the days of thy life; and that thy days may be prolonged.
3
以色列阿、你要听、要谨守遵行、使你可以在那流奶与蜜之地、得以享福、人数极其增多、正如耶和华你列祖的 神所应许你的。
Hear therefore, O Israel, and observe to do it; that it may be well with thee, and that ye may increase mightily, as Jehovah, the God of thy fathers, hath promised unto thee, in a land flowing with milk and honey.
4
以色列阿、你要听.耶和华我们 神是独一的主。
Hear, O Israel: Jehovah our God is one Jehovah:
5
你要尽心、尽性、尽力、爱耶和华你的 神。
and thou shalt love Jehovah thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might.
6
我今日所吩咐你的话、都要记在心上.
And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be upon thy heart;
7
也要殷勤教训你的儿女、无论你坐在家里、行在路上、躺下、起来、都要谈论。
and thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thy house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up.
8
也要系在手上为记号、戴在额上为经文。
And thou shalt bind them for a sign upon thy hand, and they shall be for frontlets between thine eyes.
9
又要写在你房屋的门框上、并你的城门上。
And thou shalt write them upon the door-posts of thy house, and upon thy gates.
10
耶和华你的 神、领你进他向你列祖亚伯拉罕、以撒、雅各、起誓应许给你的地.那里有城邑、又大又美、非你所建造的.
And it shall be, when Jehovah thy God shall bring thee into the land which he sware unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give thee, great and goodly cities, which thou buildest not,
11
有房屋、装满各样美物、非你所装满的.有凿成的水井、非你所凿成的.还有葡萄园、橄榄园、非你所栽种的、你吃了而且饱足.
and houses full of all good things, which thou filledst not, and cisterns hewn out, which thou hewedst not, vineyards and olive-trees, which thou plantedst not, and thou shalt eat and be full;
12
那时你要谨慎、免得你忘记将你从埃及地为奴之家、领出来的耶和华。
then beware lest thou forget Jehovah, who brought thee forth out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
13
你要敬畏耶和华你的 神、事奉他、指着他的名起誓。
Thou shalt fear Jehovah thy God; and him shalt thou serve, and shalt swear by his name.
14
不可随从别神、就是你们四围国民的神.
Ye shall not go after other gods, of the gods of the peoples that are round about you;
15
因为在你们中间的耶和华你 神、是忌邪的 神.惟恐耶和华你 神的怒气向你发作、就把你从地上除灭。
for Jehovah thy God in the midst of thee is a jealous God; lest the anger of Jehovah thy God be kindled against thee, and he destroy thee from off the face of the earth.
16
你们不可试探耶和华你们的 神、像你们在玛撒那样试探他。
Ye shall not tempt Jehovah your God, as ye tempted him in Massah.
17
要留意遵守耶和华你们 神所吩咐的诫命、法度、律例。
Ye shall diligently keep the commandments of Jehovah your God, and his testimonies, and his statutes, which he hath commanded thee.
18
耶和华眼中看为正、看为善的、你都要遵行、使你可以享福、并可以进去、得耶和华向你列祖起誓应许的那美地.
And thou shalt do that which is right and good in the sight of Jehovah; that it may be well with thee, and that thou mayest go in and possess the good land which Jehovah sware unto thy fathers,
19
照耶和华所说的、从你面前撵出你的一切仇敌。
to thrust out all thine enemies from before thee, as Jehovah hath spoken.
20
日后、你的儿子问你说、耶和华我们 神吩咐你们的这些法度、律例、典章、是甚么意思呢。
When thy son asketh thee in time to come, saying, What mean the testimonies, and the statutes, and the ordinances, which Jehovah our God hath commanded you?
21
你就告诉你的儿子说、我们在埃及作过法老的奴仆、耶和华用大能的手、将我们从埃及领出来.
then thou shalt say unto thy son, We were Pharaoh`s bondmen in Egypt: and Jehovah brought us out of Egypt with a mighty hand;
22
在我们眼前、将重大可怕的神迹、奇事、施行在埃及地、和法老并他全家的身上.
and Jehovah showed signs and wonders, great and sore, upon Egypt, upon Pharaoh, and upon all his house, before our eyes;
23
将我们从那里领出来、要领我们进入他向我们列祖起誓应许之地、把这地赐给我们。
and he brought us out from thence, that he might bring us in, to give us the land which he sware unto our fathers.
24
耶和华又吩咐我们遵行这一切律例、要敬畏耶和华我们的 神、使我们常得好处、蒙他保全我们的生命、像今日一样。
And Jehovah commanded us to do all these statutes, to fear Jehovah our God, for our good always, that he might preserve us alive, as at this day.
25
我们若照耶和华我们 神所吩咐的一切诫命、谨守遵行、这就是我们的义了。
And it shall be righteousness unto us, if we observe to do all this commandment before Jehovah our God, as he hath commanded us.
第7章
1
耶和华你 神领你进入要得为业之地、从你面前赶出许多国民、就是赫人、革迦撒人、亚摩利人、迦南人、比利洗人、希未人、耶布斯人、共七国的民、都比你强大。
When Jehovah thy God shall bring thee into the land whither thou goest to possess it, and shall cast out many nations before thee, the Hittite, and the Girgashite, and the Amorite, and the Canaanite, and the Perizzite, and the Hivite, and the Jebusite, seven nations greater and mightier than thou;
2
耶和华你 神将他们交给你击杀、那时你要把他们灭绝净尽、不可与他们立约、也不可怜恤他们。
and when Jehovah thy God shall deliver them up before thee, and thou shalt smite them; then thou shalt utterly destroy them: thou shalt make no covenant with them, nor show mercy unto them;
3
不可与他们结亲、不可将你的女儿嫁他们的儿子、也不可叫你的儿子娶他们的女儿.
neither shalt thou make marriages with them; thy daughter thou shalt not give unto his son, nor his daughter shalt thou take unto thy son.
4
因为他必使你儿子转离不跟从主、去事奉别神、以致耶和华的怒气向你们发作、就速速的将你们灭绝。
For he will turn away thy son from following me, that they may serve other gods: so will the anger of Jehovah be kindled against you, and he will destroy thee quickly.
5
你们却要这样待他们、拆毁他们的祭坛、打碎他们的柱像、砍下他们的木偶、用火焚烧他们雕刻的偶像。
But thus shall ye deal with them: ye shall break down their altars, and dash in pieces their pillars, and hew down their Asherim, and burn their graven images with fire.
6
因为你归耶和华你 神为圣洁的民、耶和华你 神从地上的万民中拣选你、特作自己的子民。
For thou art a holy people unto Jehovah thy God: Jehovah thy God hath chosen thee to be a people for his own possession, above all peoples that are upon the face of the earth.
7
耶和华专爱你们、拣选你们、并非因你们的人数多于别民、原来你们的人数、在万民中是最少的。
Jehovah did not set his love upon you, nor choose you, because ye were more in number than any people; for ye were the fewest of all peoples:
8
只因耶和华爱你们、又因要守他向你们列祖所起的誓、就用大能的手领你们出来、从为奴之家救赎你们、脱离埃及王法老的手。
but because Jehovah loveth you, and because he would keep the oath which he sware unto your fathers, hath Jehovah brought you out with a mighty hand, and redeemed you out of the house of bondage, from the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt.
9
所以你要知道耶和华你的 神、他是 神、是信实的 神、向爱他守他诫命的人、守约施慈爱、直到千代.
Know therefore that Jehovah thy God, he is God, the faithful God, who keepeth covenant and lovingkindness with them that love him and keep his commandments to a thousand generations,
10
向恨他的人、当面报应他们、将他们灭绝.凡恨他的人必报应他们、决不迟延。
and repayeth them that hate him to their face, to destroy them: he will not be slack to him that hateth him, he will repay him to his face.
11
所以你要谨守遵行我今日所吩咐你的诫命、律例、典章。
Thou shalt therefore keep the commandment, and the statutes, and the ordinances, which I command thee this day, to do them.
12
你们果然听从这些典章、谨守遵行、耶和华你 神就必照他向你列祖所起的誓、守约施慈爱。
And it shall come to pass, because ye hearken to these ordinances, and keep and do them, that Jehovah thy God will keep with thee the covenant and the lovingkindness which he sware unto thy fathers:
13
他必爱你、赐福与你、使你人数增多、也必在他向你列祖起誓应许给你的地上、赐福与你身所生的、地所产的、并你的五谷、新酒、和油、以及牛犊、羊羔。
and he will love thee, and bless thee, and multiply thee; he will also bless the fruit of thy body and the fruit of thy ground, thy grain and thy new wine and thine oil, the increase of thy cattle and the young of thy flock, in the land which he sware unto thy fathers to give thee.
14
你必蒙福胜过万民、你们的男女没有不能生养的、牲畜也没有不能生育的。
Thou shalt be blessed above all peoples: there shall not be male or female barren among you, or among your cattle.
15
耶和华必使一切的病症离开你、你所知道埃及各样的恶疾、他不加在你身上、只加在一切恨你的人身上。
And Jehovah will take away from thee all sickness; and none of the evil diseases of Egypt, which thou knowest, will he put upon thee, but will lay them upon all them that hate thee.
16
耶和华你 神所要交给你的一切人民、你要将他们除灭、你眼不可顾惜他们.你也不可事奉他们的神、因这必成为你的网罗。
And thou shalt consume all the peoples that Jehovah thy God shall deliver unto thee; thine eye shall not pity them: neither shalt thou serve their gods; for that will be a snare unto thee.
17
你若心里说、这些国的民比我更多、我怎能赶出他们呢。
If thou shalt say in thy heart, These nations are more than I; how can I dispossess them?
18
你不要惧怕他们、要牢牢记念耶和华你 神向法老和埃及全地所行的事.
thou shalt not be afraid of them: thou shalt well remember what Jehovah thy God did unto Pharaoh, and unto all Egypt;
19
就是你亲眼所看见的大试验、神迹、奇事、和大能的手、并伸出来的膀臂、都是耶和华你 神领你出来所用的.耶和华你 神必照样待你所惧怕的一切人民。
the great trials which thine eyes saw, and the signs, and the wonders, and the mighty hand, and the outstretched arm, whereby Jehovah thy God brought thee out: so shall Jehovah thy God do unto all the peoples of whom thou art afraid.
20
并且耶和华你 神必打发黄蜂、飞到他们中间、直到那剩下而藏躲的人、从你面前灭亡。
Moreover Jehovah thy God will send the hornet among them, until they that are left, and hide themselves, perish from before thee.
21
你不要因他们惊恐、因为耶和华你 神在你们中间是大而可畏的 神。
Thou shalt not be affrighted at them; for Jehovah thy God is in the midst of thee, a great God and a terrible.
22
耶和华你 神必将这些国的民、从你面前渐渐赶出、你不可把他们速速灭尽、恐怕野地的兽多起来害你。
And Jehovah thy God will cast out those nations before thee by little and little: thou mayest not consume them at once, lest the beasts of the field increase upon thee.
23
耶和华你 神必将他们交给你、大大的扰乱他们、直到他们灭绝了。
But Jehovah thy God will deliver them up before thee, and will discomfit them with a great discomfiture, until they be destroyed.
24
又要将他们的君王交在你手中、你就使他们的名从天下消灭.必无一人能在你面前站立得住、直到你将他们灭绝了。
And he will deliver their kings into thy hand, and thou shalt make their name to perish from under heaven: there shall no man be able to stand before thee, until thou have destroyed them.
25
他们雕刻的神像、你们要用火焚烧、其上的金银你不可贪图、也不可收取、免得你因此陷入网罗.这原是耶和华你 神所憎恶的。
The graven images of their gods shall ye burn with fire: thou shalt not covet the silver or the gold that is on them, nor take it unto thee, lest thou be snared therein; for it is an abomination to Jehovah thy God.
26
可憎的物、你不可带进家去、不然、你就成了当毁灭的、与那物一样.你要十分厌恶、十分憎嫌、因为这是当毁灭的物。
And thou shalt not bring an abomination into thy house, and become a devoted thing like unto it: thou shalt utterly detest it, and thou shalt utterly abhor it; for it is a devoted thing.
第8章
1
我今日所吩咐的一切诫命、你们要谨守遵行、好叫你们存活、人数增多、且进去得耶和华向你们列祖起誓应许的那地。
All the commandment which I command thee this day shall ye observe to do, that ye may live, and multiply, and go in and possess the land which Jehovah sware unto your fathers.
2
你也要记念耶和华你的 神在旷野引导你、这四十年、是要苦炼你、试验你、要知道你心内如何、肯守他的诫命不肯。
And thou shalt remember all the way which Jehovah thy God hath led thee these forty years in the wilderness, that he might humble thee, to prove thee, to know what was in thy heart, whether thou wouldest keep his commandments, or not.
3
他苦炼你、任你饥饿、将你和你列祖所不认识的吗哪赐给你吃、使你知道人活着、不是单靠食物、乃是靠耶和华口里所出的一切话。
And he humbled thee, and suffered thee to hunger, and fed thee with manna, which thou knewest not, neither did thy fathers know; that he might make thee know that man doth not live by bread only, but by everything that proceedeth out of the mouth of Jehovah doth man live.
4
这四十年、你的衣服没有穿破、你的脚也没有肿。
Thy raiment waxed not old upon thee, neither did thy foot swell, these forty years.
5
你当心里思想、耶和华你 神管教你、好像人管教儿子一样。
And thou shalt consider in thy heart, that, as a man chasteneth his son, so Jehovah thy God chasteneth thee.
6
你要谨守耶和华你 神的诫命、遵行他的道、敬畏他.
And thou shalt keep the commandments of Jehovah thy God, to walk in his ways, and to fear him.
7
因为耶和华你 神领你进入美地、那地有河、有泉、有源、从山谷中流出水来。
For Jehovah thy God bringeth thee into a good land, a land of brooks of water, of fountains and springs, flowing forth in valleys and hills;
8
那地有小麦、大麦、葡萄树、无花果树、石榴树、橄榄树、和蜜。
a land of wheat and barley, and vines and fig-trees and pomegranates; a land of olive-trees and honey;
9
你在那地不缺食物、一无所缺.那地的石头是铁、山内可以挖铜。
a land wherein thou shalt eat bread without scarceness, thou shalt not lack anything in it; a land whose stones are iron, and out of whose hills thou mayest dig copper.
10
你吃得饱足、就要称颂耶和华你的 神、因他将那美地赐给你了。
And thou shalt eat and be full, and thou shalt bless Jehovah thy God for the good land which he hath given thee.
11
你要谨慎、免得忘记耶和华你的 神、不守他的诫命、典章、律例、就是我今日所吩咐你的。
Beware lest thou forget Jehovah thy God, in not keeping his commandments, and his ordinances, and his statutes, which I command thee this day:
12
恐怕你吃得饱足、建造美好的房屋居住.
lest, when thou hast eaten and art full, and hast built goodly houses, and dwelt therein;
13
你的牛羊加多、你的金银增添、并你所有的全都加增、
and when thy herds and thy flocks multiply, and thy silver and thy gold is multiplied, and all that thou hast is multiplied;
14
你就心高气傲、忘记耶和华你的 神、就是将你从埃及地为奴之家领出来的、
then thy heart be lifted up, and thou forget Jehovah thy God, who brought thee forth out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage;
15
引你经过那大而可怕的旷野、那里有火蛇、蝎子、干旱无水之地.他曾为你使水从坚硬的磐石中流出来.
who led thee through the great and terrible wilderness, [wherein were] fiery serpents and scorpions, and thirsty ground where was no water; who brought thee forth water out of the rock of flint;
16
又在旷野、将你列祖所不认识的吗哪赐给你吃、是要苦炼你、试验你、叫你终久享福。
who fed thee in the wilderness with manna, which thy fathers knew not; that he might humble thee, and that he might prove thee, to do thee good at thy latter end:
17
恐怕你心里说、这货财是我力量我能力得来的。
and [lest] thou say in thy heart, My power and the might of my hand hath gotten me this wealth.
18
你要记念耶和华你的 神、因为得货财的力量是他给你的、为要坚定他向你列祖起誓所立的约、像今日一样。
But thou shalt remember Jehovah thy God, for it is he that giveth thee power to get wealth; that he may establish his covenant which he sware unto thy fathers, as at this day.
19
你若忘记耶和华你的 神、随从别神、事奉敬拜、你们必定灭亡、这是我今日警戒你们的。
And it shall be, if thou shalt forget Jehovah thy God, and walk after other gods, and serve them, and worship them, I testify against you this day that ye shall surely perish.
20
耶和华在你们面前怎样使列国的民灭亡、你们也必照样灭亡、因为你们不听从耶和华你们 神的话。
As the nations that Jehovah maketh to perish before you, so shall ye perish; because ye would not hearken unto the voice of Jehovah your God.
第9章
1
以色列阿、你当听.你今日要过约但河、进去赶出比你强大的国民、得着广大坚固、高得顶天的城邑。
Hear, O Israel: thou art to pass over the Jordan this day, to go in to dispossess nations greater and mightier than thyself, cities great and fortified up to heaven,
2
那民是亚衲族的人、又大又高、是你所知道的、也曾听见有人指着他们说、谁能在亚衲族人面前站立得住呢。
a people great and tall, the sons of the Anakim, whom thou knowest, and of whom thou hast heard say, Who can stand before the sons of Anak?
3
你今日当知道、耶和华你的 神在你前面过去、如同烈火、要灭绝他们、将他们制伏在你面前、这样你就要照耶和华所说的赶出他们、使他们速速灭亡。
Know therefore this day, that Jehovah thy God is he who goeth over before thee as a devouring fire; he will destroy them, and he will bring them down before thee: so shalt thou drive them out, and make them to perish quickly, as Jehovah hath spoken unto thee.
4
耶和华你的 神将这些国民从你面前撵出以后、你心里不可说、耶和华将我领进来得这地是因我的义.其实耶和华将他们从你面前赶出去、是因他们的恶。
Speak not thou in thy heart, after that Jehovah thy God hath thrust them out from before thee, saying, For my righteousness Jehovah hath brought me in to possess this land; whereas for the wickedness of these nations Jehovah doth drive them out from before thee.
5
你进去得他们的地、并不是因你的义、也不是因你心里正直、乃是因这些国民的恶、耶和华你的 神将他们从你面前赶出去、又因耶和华要坚定他向你列祖亚伯拉罕、以撒、雅各、起誓所应许的话。
Not for thy righteousness, or for the uprightness of thy heart, dost thou go in to possess their land; but for the wickedness of these nations Jehovah thy God doth drive them out from before thee, and that he may establish the word which Jehovah sware unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.
6
你当知道、耶和华你 神将这美地赐你为业、并不是因你的义、你本是硬着颈项的百姓。
Know therefore, that Jehovah thy God giveth thee not this good land to possess it for thy righteousness; for thou art a stiffnecked people.
7
你当记念不忘、你在旷野怎样惹耶和华你 神发怒.自从你出了埃及地的那日、直到你们来到这地方、你们时常悖逆耶和华。
Remember, forget thou not, how thou provokedst Jehovah thy God to wrath in the wilderness: from the day that thou wentest forth out of the land of Egypt, until ye came unto this place, ye have been rebellious against Jehovah.
8
你们在何烈山又惹耶和华发怒、他恼怒你们、要灭绝你们。
Also in Horeb ye provoked Jehovah to wrath, and Jehovah was angry with you to destroy you.
9
我上了山、要领受两块石版、就是耶和华与你们立约的版.那时我在山上住了四十昼夜、没有吃饭、也没有喝水。
When I was gone up into the mount to receive the tables of stone, even the tables of the covenant which Jehovah made with you, then I abode in the mount forty days and forty nights; I did neither eat bread nor drink water.
10
耶和华把那两块石版交给我、是 神用指头写的、版上所写的、是照耶和华在大会的日子、在山上、从火中对你们所说的一切话。
And Jehovah delivered unto me the two tables of stone written with the finger of God; and on them [was written] according to all the words, which Jehovah speak with you in the mount out of the midst of the fire in the day of the assembly.
11
过了四十昼夜、耶和华把那两块石版、就是约版、交给我.
And it came to pass at the end of forty days and forty nights, that Jehovah gave me the two tables of stone, even the tables of the covenant.
12
对我说、你起来、赶快下去、因为你从埃及领出来的百姓、已经败坏了自己、他们快快的偏离了我所吩咐的道、为自己铸成了偶像。
And Jehovah said unto me, Arise, get thee down quickly from hence; for thy people that thou hast brought forth out of Egypt have corrupted themselves; they are quickly turned aside out of the way which I commanded them; they have made them a molten image.
13
耶和华又对我说、我看这百姓是硬着颈项的百姓。
Furthermore Jehovah spake unto me, saying, I have seen this people, and, behold, it is a stiffnecked people:
14
你且由着我、我要灭绝他们、将他们的名从天下涂抹、使你的后裔比他们成为更大更强的国。
let me alone, that I may destroy them, and blot out their name from under heaven; and I will make of thee a nation mightier and greater than they.
15
于是我转身下山、山被火烧𤏲.两块约版在我两手之中。
So I turned and came down from the mount, and the mount was burning with fire: and the two tables of the covenant were in my two hands.
16
我一看见你们得罪了耶和华你们的 神、铸成了牛犊、快快的偏离了耶和华所吩咐你们的道、
And I looked, and, behold, ye had sinned against Jehovah your God; ye had made you a molten calf: ye had turned aside quickly out of the way which Jehovah had commanded you.
17
我就把那两块版从我手中扔下去、在你们眼前摔碎了。
And I took hold of the two tables, and cast them out of my two hands, and brake them before your eyes.
18
因你们所犯的一切罪、行了耶和华眼中看为恶的事、惹他发怒、我就像从前俯伏在耶和华面前四十昼夜、没有吃饭、也没有喝水。
And I fell down before Jehovah, as at the first, forty days and forty nights; I did neither eat bread nor drink water; because of all your sin which ye sinned, in doing that which was evil in the sight of Jehovah, to provoke him to anger.
19
我因耶和华向你们大发烈怒、要灭绝你们、就甚害怕、但那次耶和华又应允了我。
For I was afraid of the anger and hot displeasure, wherewith Jehovah was wroth against you to destroy you. But Jehovah hearkened unto me that time also.
20
耶和华也向亚伦甚是发怒、要灭绝他、那时我又为亚伦祈祷。
And Jehovah was very angry with Aaron to destroy him: and I prayed for Aaron also at the same time.
21
我把那叫你们犯罪所铸的牛犊、用火焚烧、又捣碎磨得很细、以至细如灰尘.我就把这灰尘撒在从山上流下来的溪水中。
And I took your sin, the calf which ye had made, and burnt it with fire, and stamped it, grinding it very small, until it was as fine as dust: and I cast the dust thereof into the brook that descended out of the mount.
22
你们在他备拉、玛撒、基博罗哈他瓦、又惹耶和华发怒。
And at Taberah, and at Massah, and at Kibroth-hattaavah, ye provoked Jehovah to wrath.
23
耶和华打发你们离开加低斯巴尼亚说、你们上去、得我所赐给你们的地、那时你们违背了耶和华你们 神的命令、不信服他、不听从他的话。
And when Jehovah sent you from Kadesh-barnea, saying, Go up and possess the land which I have given you; then ye rebelled against the commandment of Jehovah your God, and ye believed him not, nor hearkened to his voice.
24
自从我认识你们以来、你们常常悖逆耶和华。
Ye have been rebellious against Jehovah from the day that I knew you.
25
我因耶和华说要灭绝你们、就在耶和华面前照旧俯伏四十昼夜。
So I fell down before Jehovah the forty days and forty nights that I fell down, because Jehovah had said he would destroy you.
26
我祈祷耶和华说、主耶和华阿、求你不要灭绝你的百姓、他们是你的产业、是你用大力救赎的、用大能从埃及领出来的。
And I prayed unto Jehovah, and said, O Lord Jehovah, destroy not thy people and thine inheritance, that thou hast redeemed through thy greatness, that thou hast brought forth out of Egypt with a mighty hand.
27
求你记念你的仆人亚伯拉罕、以撒、雅各、不要想念这百姓的顽梗、邪恶、罪过.
Remember thy servants, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; look not unto the stubbornness of this people, nor to their wickedness, nor to their sin,
28
免得你领我们出来的那地之人说、耶和华因为不能将这百姓领进他所应许之地、又因恨他们、所以领他们出去、要在旷野杀他们。
lest the land whence thou broughtest us out say, Because Jehovah was not able to bring them into the land which he promised unto them, and because he hated them, he hath brought them out to slay them in the wilderness.
29
其实他们是你的百姓、你的产业、是你用大能、和伸出来的膀臂领出来的。
Yet they are thy people and thine inheritance, which thou broughtest out by thy great power and by thine outstretched arm.
第10章
1
那时耶和华吩咐我说、你要凿出两块石版、和先前的一样、上山到我这里来、又要作一木柜。
At that time Jehovah said unto me, Hew thee two tables of stone like unto the first, and come up unto me into the mount, and make thee an ark of wood.
2
你先前摔碎的那版、其上的字我要写在这版上、你要将这版放在柜中。
And I will write on the tables the words that were on the first tables which thou brakest, and thou shalt put them in the ark.
3
于是我用皂荚木作了一柜、又凿出两块石版和先前的一样、手里拿这两块版上山去了。
So I made an ark of acacia wood, and hewed two tables of stone like unto the first, and went up into the mount, having the two tables in my hand.
4
耶和华将那大会之日、在山上从火中所传与你们的十条诫、照先前所写的、写在这版上、将版交给我了。
And he wrote on the tables, according to the first writing, the ten commandments, which Jehovah spake unto you in the mount out of the midst of the fire in the day of the assembly: and Jehovah gave them unto me.
5
我转身下山、将这版放在我所作的柜中、现今还在那里、正如耶和华所吩咐我的。
And I turned and came down from the mount, and put the tables in the ark which I had made; and there they are as Jehovah commanded me.
6
(以色列人从比罗比尼亚干〈或作亚干井〉起行、到了摩西拉。亚伦死在那里、就葬在那里.他儿子以利亚撒、接续他供祭司的职分。
(And the children of Israel journeyed from Beeroth Bene-jaakan to Moserah. There Aaron died, and there he was buried; and Eleazar his son ministered in the priest`s office in his stead.
7
他们从那里起行、到了谷歌大、又从谷歌大到了有溪水之地的约巴他。
From thence they journeyed unto Gudgodah; and from Gudgodah to Jotbathah, a land of brooks of water.
8
那时耶和华将利未支派分别出来、抬耶和华的约柜、又侍立在耶和华面前事奉他、奉他的名祝福、直到今日。
At that time Jehovah set apart the tribe of Levi, to bear the ark of the covenant of Jehovah, to stand before Jehovah to minister unto him, and to bless in his name, unto this day.
9
所以利未人在他弟兄中无分无业、耶和华是他的产业、正如耶和华你 神所应许他的。)
Wherefore Levi hath no portion nor inheritance with his brethren; Jehovah is his inheritance, according as Jehovah thy God spake unto him.)
10
我又像从前在山上住了四十昼夜.那次耶和华也应允我、不忍将你灭绝。
And I stayed in the mount, as at the first time, forty days and forty nights: and Jehovah hearkened unto me that time also; Jehovah would not destroy thee.
11
耶和华吩咐我说、你起来引导这百姓、使他们进去得我向他们列祖起誓应许所赐之地。
And Jehovah said unto me, Arise, take thy journey before the people; and they shall go in and possess the land, which I sware unto their fathers to give unto them.
12
以色列阿、现在耶和华你 神向你所要的是甚么呢、只要你敬畏耶和华你的 神、遵行他的道、爱他、尽心尽性事奉他、
And now, Israel, what doth Jehovah thy God require of thee, but to fear Jehovah thy God, to walk in all his ways, and to love him, and to serve Jehovah thy God with all thy heart and with all thy soul,
13
遵守他的诫命、律例、就是我今日所吩咐你的、为要叫你得福。
to keep the commandments of Jehovah, and his statutes, which I command thee this day for thy good?
14
看哪、天和天上的天、地和地上所有的、都属耶和华你的 神。
Behold, unto Jehovah thy God belongeth heaven and the heaven of heavens, the earth, with all that is therein.
15
耶和华但喜悦你的列祖、爱他们、从万民中拣选他们的后裔就是你们、像今日一样。
Only Jehovah had a delight in thy fathers to love them, and he chose their seed after them, even you above all peoples, as at this day.
16
所以你们要将心里的污秽除掉。不可再硬着颈项.
Circumcise therefore the foreskin of your heart, and be no more stiffnecked.
17
因为耶和华你们的 神他是万神之神、万主之主、至大的 神、大有能力、大而可畏、不以貌取人、也不受贿赂。
For Jehovah your God, he is God of gods, and Lord of lords, the great God, the mighty, and the terrible, who regardeth not persons, nor taketh reward.
18
他为孤儿寡妇伸冤、又怜爱寄居的、赐给他衣食。
He doth execute justice for the fatherless and widow, and loveth the sojourner, in giving him food and raiment.
19
所以你们要怜爱寄居的、因为你们在埃及地也作过寄居的。
Love ye therefore the sojourner; for ye were sojourners in the land of Egypt.
20
你要敬畏耶和华你的 神、事奉他、专靠他、也要指着他的名起誓。
Thou shalt fear Jehovah thy God; him shalt thou serve; and to him shalt thou cleave, and by his name shalt thou swear.
21
他是你所赞美的、是你的 神、为你作了那大而可畏的事、是你亲眼所看见的。
He is thy praise, and he is thy God, that hath done for thee these great and terrible things, which thine eyes have seen.
22
你的列祖七十人下埃及、现在耶和华你的 神使你如同天上的星那样多。
Thy fathers went down into Egypt with threescore and ten persons; and now Jehovah thy God hath made thee as the stars of heaven for multitude.
第11章
1
你要爱耶和华你的 神、常守他的吩咐、律例、典章、诫命。
Therefore thou shalt love Jehovah thy God, and keep his charge, and his statutes, and his ordinances, and his commandments, alway.
2
你们今日当知道、我本不是和你们的儿女说话、因为他们不知道、也没有看见耶和华你们 神的管教、威严、大能的手、和伸出来的膀臂、
And know ye this day: for [I speak] not with your children that have not known, and that have not seen the chastisement of Jehovah your God, his greatness, his mighty hand, and his outstretched arm,
3
并他在埃及中向埃及王法老、和其全地所行的神迹奇事、
and his signs, and his works, which he did in the midst of Egypt unto Pharaoh the king of Egypt, and unto all his land;
4
也没有看见他怎样待埃及的军兵、车马、他们追赶你们的时候、耶和华怎样使红海的水淹没他们、将他们灭绝直到今日.
and what he did unto the army of Egypt, unto their horses, and to their chariots; how he made the water of the Red Sea to overflow them as they pursued after you, and how Jehovah hath destroyed them unto this day;
5
并他在旷野怎样待你们、以致你们来到这地方.
and what he did unto you in the wilderness, until ye came unto this place;
6
也没有看见他怎样待流便子孙以利押的儿子、大坍、亚比兰、地怎样在以色列人中间开口吞了他们、和他们的家眷、并帐棚、与跟他们的一切活物.
and what he did unto Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, the son of Reuben; how the earth opened its mouth, and swallowed them up, and their households, and their tents, and every living thing that followed them, in the midst of all Israel:
7
惟有你们亲眼看见耶和华所作的一切大事。
but your eyes have seen all the great work of Jehovah which he did.
8
所以你们要守我今日所吩咐的一切诫命、使你们胆壮、能以进去、得你们所要得的那地.
Therefore shall ye keep all the commandment which I command thee this day, that ye may be strong, and go in and possess the land, whither ye go over to possess it;
9
并使你们的日子、在耶和华向你们列祖起誓应许给他们、和他们后裔的地上、得以长久.那是流奶与蜜之地。
and that ye may prolong your days in the land, which Jehovah sware unto your fathers to give unto them and to their seed, a land flowing with milk and honey.
10
你要进去得为业的那地、本不像你出来的埃及地、你在那里撒种、用脚浇灌、像浇灌菜园一样。
For the land, whither thou goest in to possess it, is not as the land of Egypt, from whence ye came out, where thou sowedst thy seed, and wateredst it with thy foot, as a garden of herbs;
11
你们要过去得为业的那地、乃是有山、有谷、雨水滋润之地。
but the land, whither ye go over to possess it, is a land of hills and valleys, [and] drinketh water of the rain of heaven,
12
是耶和华你 神所眷顾的、从岁首到年终、耶和华你 神的眼目时常看顾那地。
a land which Jehovah thy God careth for: the eyes of Jehovah thy God are always upon it, from the beginning of the year even unto the end of the year.
13
你们若留意听从我今日所吩咐的诫命、爱耶和华你们的 神、尽心、尽性、事奉他、
And it shall come to pass, if ye shall hearken diligently unto my commandments which I command you this day, to love Jehovah your God, and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul,
14
他〈原文作我〉必按时降秋雨春雨、在你们的地上、使你们可以收藏五谷、新酒、和油.
that I will give the rain of your land in its season, the former rain and the latter rain, that thou mayest gather in thy grain, and thy new wine, and thine oil.
15
也必使你吃得饱足、并使田野为你的牲畜长草。
And I will give grass in thy fields for thy cattle, and thou shalt eat and be full.
16
你们要谨慎、免得心中受迷惑、就偏离正路、去事奉敬拜别神。
Take heed to yourselves, lest your heart be deceived, and ye turn aside, and serve other gods, and worship them;
17
耶和华的怒气向你们发作、就使天闭塞不下雨、地也不出产、使你们在耶和华所赐给你们的美地上、速速灭亡。
and the anger of Jehovah be kindled against you, and he shut up the heavens, so that there shall be no rain, and the land shall not yield its fruit; and ye perish quickly from off the good land which Jehovah giveth you.
18
你们要将我这话存在心内、留在意中、系在手上为记号、戴在额上为经文、
Therefore shall ye lay up these my words in your heart and in your soul; and ye shall bind them for a sign upon your hand, and they shall be for frontlets between your eyes.
19
也要教训你们的儿女、无论坐在家里、行在路上、躺下、起来、都要谈论。
And ye shall teach them your children, talking of them, when thou sittest in thy house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up.
20
又要写在房屋的门框上、并城门上、
And thou shalt write them upon the door-posts of thy house, and upon thy gates;
21
使你们和你们子孙的日子、在耶和华向你们列祖起誓应许给他们的地上、得以增多、如天覆地的日子那样多。
that your days may be multiplied, and the days of your children, in the land which Jehovah sware unto your fathers to give them, as the days of the heavens above the earth.
22
你们若留意谨守遵行我所吩咐这一切的诫命、爱耶和华你们的 神、行他的道、专靠他、
For if ye shall diligently keep all this commandment which I command you, to do it, to love Jehovah your God, to walk in all his ways, and to cleave unto him;
23
他必从你们面前赶出这一切国民、就是比你们更大更强的国民、你们也要得他们的地。
then will Jehovah drive out all these nations from before you, and ye shall dispossess nations greater and mightier than yourselves.
24
凡你们脚掌所踏之地、都必归你们、从旷野和利巴嫩、并伯拉大河、直到西海、都要作你们的境界。
Every place whereon the sole of your foot shall tread shall be yours: from the wilderness, and Lebanon, from the river, the river Euphrates, even unto the hinder sea shall be your border.
25
必无一人能在你们面前站立得住.耶和华你们的 神、必照他所说的、使惧怕惊恐临到你们所踏之地的居民。
There shall no man be able to stand before you: Jehovah your God shall lay the fear of you and the dread of you upon all the land that ye shall tread upon, as he hath spoken unto you.
26
看哪、我今日将祝福与咒诅的话、都陈明在你们面前。
Behold, I set before you this day a blessing and a curse:
27
你们若听从耶和华你们 神的诫命、就是我今日所吩咐你们的、就必蒙福。
the blessing, if ye shall hearken unto the commandments of Jehovah your God, which I command you this day;
28
你们若不听从耶和华你们 神的诫命、偏离我今日所吩咐你们的道、去事奉你们素来所不认识的别神、就必受祸。
and the curse, if ye shall not hearken unto the commandments of Jehovah your God, but turn aside out of the way which I command you this day, to go after other gods, which ye have not known.
29
及至耶和华你的 神领你进入要去得为业的那地、你就要将祝福的话陈明在基利心山上、将咒诅的话陈明在以巴路山上。
And it shall come to pass, when Jehovah thy God shall bring thee into the land whither thou goest to possess it, that thou shalt set the blessing upon mount Gerizim, and the curse upon mount Ebal.
30
这二山岂不是在约但河那边、日落之处、在住亚拉巴的迦南人之地、与吉甲相对、靠近摩利橡树么。
Are they not beyond the Jordan, behind the way of the going down of the sun, in the land of the Canaanites that dwell in the Arabah, over against Gilgal, beside the oaks of Moreh?
31
你们要过约但河、进去得耶和华你们 神所赐你们为业之地、在那地居住。
For ye are to pass over the Jordan to go in to possess the land which Jehovah your God giveth you, and ye shall possess it, and dwell therein.
32
你们要谨守遵行我今日在你们面前所陈明的一切律例、典章。
And ye shall observe to do all the statutes and the ordinances which I set before you this day.
第12章
1
你们存活于世的日子、在耶和华你们列祖的 神所赐你们为业的地上、要谨守遵行的律例、典章、乃是这些.
These are the statutes and the ordinances which ye shall observe to do in the land which Jehovah, the God of thy fathers, hath given thee to possess it, all the days that ye live upon the earth.
2
你们要将所赶出的国民事奉神的各地方、无论是在高山、在小山、在各青翠树下、都毁坏了。
Ye shall surely destroy all the places wherein the nations that ye shall dispossess served their gods, upon the high mountains, and upon the hills, and under every green tree:
3
也要拆毁他们的祭坛、打碎他们的柱像、用火焚烧他们的木偶、砍下他们雕刻的神像、并将其名从那地方除灭。
and ye shall break down their altars, and dash in pieces their pillars, and burn their Asherim with fire; and ye shall hew down the graven images of their gods; and ye shall destroy their name out of that place.
4
你们不可照他们那样事奉耶和华你们的 神。
Ye shall not do so unto Jehovah your God.
5
但耶和华你们的 神从你们各支派中、选择何处为立他名的居所、你们就当往那里去求问.
But unto the place which Jehovah your God shall choose out of all your tribes, to put his name there, even unto his habitation shall ye seek, and thither thou shalt come;
6
将你们的燔祭平安祭、十分取一之物、和手中的举祭、并还愿祭、甘心祭、以及牛群羊群中头生的、都奉到那里.
and thither ye shall bring your burnt-offerings, and your sacrifices, and your tithes, and the heave-offering of your hand, and your vows, and your freewill-offerings, and the firstlings of your herd and of your flock:
7
在那里、耶和华你们 神的面前、你们和你们的家属、都可以吃.并且因你手所办的一切事、蒙耶和华你的 神赐福、就都欢乐。
and there ye shall eat before Jehovah your God, and ye shall rejoice in all that ye put your hand unto, ye and your households, wherein Jehovah thy God hath blessed thee.
8
我们今日在这里所行的、是各人行自己眼中看为正的事、你们将来不可这样行.
Ye shall not do after all the things that we do here this day, every man whatsoever is right in his own eyes;
9
因为你们还没有到耶和华你 神所赐你的安息地、所给你的产业。
for ye are not as yet come to the rest and to the inheritance, which Jehovah thy God giveth thee.
10
但你们过了约但河、得以住在耶和华你们 神使你们承受为业之地、又使你们太平、不被四围的一切仇敌扰乱、安然居住.
But when ye go over the Jordan, and dwell in the land which Jehovah your God causeth you to inherit, and he giveth you rest from all your enemies round about, so that ye dwell in safety;
11
那时要将我所吩咐你们的燔祭平安祭十分取一之物、和手中的举祭、并向耶和华许愿献的一切美祭、都奉到耶和华你们 神所选择要立为他名的居所。
then it shall come to pass that to the place which Jehovah your God shall choose, to cause his name to dwell there, thither shall ye bring all that I command you: your burnt-offerings, and your sacrifices, your tithes, and the heave-offering of your hand, and all your choice vows which ye vow unto Jehovah.
12
你们和儿女、仆婢、并住在你们城里无分无业的利未人、都要在耶和华你们的 神面前欢乐。
And ye shall rejoice before Jehovah your God, ye, and your sons, and your daughters, and your men-servants, and your maid-servants, and the Levite that is within your gates, forasmuch as he hath no portion nor inheritance with you.
13
你要谨慎、不可在你所看中的各处献燔祭。
Take heed to thyself that thou offer not thy burnt-offerings in every place that thou seest;
14
惟独耶和华从你那一支派中所选择的地方、你就要在那里献燔祭、行我一切所吩咐你的。
but in the place which Jehovah shall choose in one of thy tribes, there thou shalt offer thy burnt-offerings, and there thou shalt do all that I command thee.
15
然而在你各城里、都可以照耶和华你 神所赐你的福分、随心所欲宰牲吃肉、无论洁净人、不洁净人、都可以吃、就如吃羚羊与鹿一般。
Notwithstanding, thou mayest kill and eat flesh within all thy gates, after all the desire of thy soul, according to the blessing of Jehovah thy God which he hath given thee: the unclean and the clean may eat thereof, as of the gazelle, and as of the hart.
16
只是不可吃血、要倒在地上、如同倒水一样。
Only ye shall not eat the blood; thou shalt pour it out upon the earth as water.
17
你的五谷、新酒、和油的十分之一、或是牛群羊群中头生的、或是你许愿献的、甘心献的、或是手中的举祭、都不可在你城里吃、
Thou mayest not eat within thy gates the tithe of thy grain, or of thy new wine, or of thine oil, or the firstlings of thy herd or of thy flock, nor any of thy vows which thou vowest, nor thy freewill-offerings, nor the heave-offering of thy hand;
18
但要在耶和华你的 神面前吃、在耶和华你 神所要选择的地方、你和儿女、仆婢、并住在你城里的利未人、都可以吃、也要因你手所办的、在耶和华你 神面前欢乐。
but thou shalt eat them before Jehovah thy God in the place which Jehovah thy God shall choose, thou, and thy son, and thy daughter, and thy man-servant, and thy maid-servant, and the Levite that is within thy gates: and thou shalt rejoice before Jehovah thy God in all that thou puttest thy hand unto.
19
你要谨慎、在你所住的地方、永不可丢弃利未人。
Take heed to thyself that thou forsake not the Levite as long as thou livest in thy land.
20
耶和华你的 神照他所应许、扩张你境界的时候、你心里想要吃肉、说、我要吃肉、就可以随心所欲的吃肉。
When Jehovah thy God shall enlarge thy border, as he hath promised thee, and thou shalt say, I will eat flesh, because thy soul desireth to eat flesh; thou mayest eat flesh, after all the desire of thy soul.
21
耶和华你 神所选择要立他名的地方、若离你太远、就可以照我所吩咐的、将耶和华赐给你的牛羊取些宰了、可以随心所欲在你城里吃。
If the place which Jehovah thy God shall choose, to put his name there, be too far from thee, then thou shalt kill of thy herd and of thy flock, which Jehovah hath given thee, as I have commanded thee; and thou mayest eat within thy gates, after all the desire of thy soul.
22
你吃那肉、要像吃羚羊与鹿一般、无论洁净人、不洁净人、都可以吃。
Even as the gazelle and as the hart is eaten, so thou shalt eat thereof: the unclean and the clean may eat thereof alike.
23
只是你要心意坚定不可吃血、因为血是生命、不可将血〈原文作生命〉与肉同吃。
Only be sure that thou eat not the blood: for the blood is the life; and thou shalt not eat the life with the flesh.
24
不可吃血、要倒在地上、如同倒水一样。
Thou shalt not eat it; thou shalt pour it out upon the earth as water.
25
不可吃血、这样、你行耶和华眼中看为正的事、你和你的子孙就可以得福。
Thou shalt not eat it; that it may go well with thee, and with thy children after thee, when thou shalt do that which is right in the eyes of Jehovah.
26
只是你分别为圣的物、和你的还愿祭、要奉到耶和华所选择的地方去。
Only thy holy things which thou hast, and thy vows, thou shalt take, and go unto the place which Jehovah shall choose:
27
你的燔祭、连肉带血、都要献在耶和华你 神的坛上.平安祭的血、要倒在耶和华你 神的坛上.平安祭的肉、你自己可以吃。
and thou shalt offer thy burnt-offerings, the flesh and the blood, upon the altar of Jehovah thy God; and the blood of thy sacrifices shall be poured out upon the altar of Jehovah thy God; and thou shalt eat the flesh.
28
你要谨守听从我所吩咐的一切话、行耶和华你 神眼中看为善、看为正的事、这样、你和你的子孙就可以永远享福。
Observe and hear all these words which I command thee, that it may go well with thee, and with thy children after thee for ever, when thou doest that which is good and right in the eyes of Jehovah thy God.
29
耶和华你 神将你要去赶出的国民、从你面前剪除、你得了他们的地居住.
When Jehovah thy God shall cut off the nations from before thee, whither thou goest in to dispossess them, and thou dispossessest them, and dwellest in their land;
30
那时就要谨慎、不可在他们除灭之后、随从他们的恶俗、陷入网罗、也不可访问他们的神、说、这些国民怎样事奉他们的神、我也要照样行。
take heed to thyself that thou be not ensnared to follow them, after that they are destroyed from before thee; and that thou inquire not after their gods, saying, How do these nations serve their gods? even so will I do likewise.
31
你不可向耶和华你的 神这样行、因为他们向他们的神、行了耶和华所憎嫌所恨恶的一切事、甚至将自己的儿女用火焚烧、献与他们的神。
Thou shalt not do so unto Jehovah thy God: for every abomination to Jehovah, which he hateth, have they done unto their gods; for even their sons and their daughters do they burn in the fire to their gods.
32
凡我所吩咐的、你们都要谨守遵行、不可加添、也不可删减。
What thing soever I command you, that shall ye observe to do: thou shalt not add thereto, nor diminish from it.
第13章
1
你们中间若有先知、或是作梦的起来、向你显个神迹奇事、
If there arise in the midst of thee a prophet, or a dreamer of dreams, and he give thee a sign or a wonder,
2
对你说、我们去随从你素来所不认识的别神、事奉他罢.他所显的神迹奇事、虽有应验、
and the sign or the wonder come to pass, whereof he spake unto thee, saying, Let us go after other gods, which thou hast not known, and let us serve them;
3
你也不可听那先知、或是那作梦之人的话、因为这是耶和华你们的 神试验你们、要知道你们是尽心、尽性、爱耶和华你们的 神不是。
thou shalt not hearken unto the words of that prophet, or unto that dreamer of dreams: for Jehovah your God proveth you, to know whether ye love Jehovah your God with all your heart and with all your soul.
4
你们要顺从耶和华你们的 神、敬畏他、谨守他的诫命、听从他的话、事奉他、专靠他。
Ye shall walk after Jehovah your God, and fear him, and keep his commandments, and obey his voice, and ye shall serve him, and cleave unto him.
5
那先知、或是那作梦的、既用言语叛逆那领你们出埃及地、救赎你脱离为奴之家的耶和华你们的 神、要勾引你离开耶和华你 神所吩咐你行的道、你便要将他治死.这样就把那恶从你们中间除掉。
And that prophet, or that dreamer of dreams, shall be put to death, because he hath spoken rebellion against Jehovah your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, and redeemed thee out of the house of bondage, to draw thee aside out of the way which Jehovah thy God commanded thee to walk in. So shalt thou put away the evil from the midst of thee.
6
你的同胞弟兄、或是你的儿女、或是你怀中的妻、或是如同你性命的朋友、若暗中引诱你、说、我们不如去事奉你和你列祖素来所不认识的别神、
If thy brother, the son of thy mother, or thy son, or thy daughter, or the wife of thy bosom, or thy friend, that is as thine own soul, entice thee secretly, saying, Let us go and serve other gods, which thou hast not known, thou, nor thy fathers;
7
是你四围列国的神、无论是离你近、离你远、从地这边到地那边的神、
of the gods of the peoples that are round about you, nigh unto thee, or far off from thee, from the one end of the earth even unto the other end of the earth;
8
你不可依从他、也不可听从他、眼不可顾惜他、你不可怜恤他、也不可遮庇他、
thou shalt not consent unto him, nor hearken unto him; neither shall thine eye pity him, neither shalt thou spare, neither shalt thou conceal him:
9
总要杀他、你先下手、然后众民也下手、将他治死。
but thou shalt surely kill him; thy hand shall be first upon him to put him to death, and afterwards the hand of all the people.
10
要用石头打死他、因为他想要勾引你离开那领你出埃及地为奴之家的耶和华你的 神。
And thou shalt stone him to death with stones, because he hath sought to draw thee away from Jehovah thy God, who brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
11
以色列众人都要听见害怕、就不敢在你们中间再行这样的恶了。
And all Israel shall hear, and fear, and shall do not more any such wickedness as this is in the midst of thee.
12
在耶和华你 神所赐你居住的各城中、你若听人说、有些匪类从你们中间的一座城出来勾引本城的居民、说、我们不如去事奉你们素来所不认识的别神.
If thou shalt hear tell concerning one of thy cities, which Jehovah thy God giveth thee to dwell there, saying,
13
在耶和华你 神所赐你居住的各城中、你若听人说、有些匪类从你们中间的一座城出来勾引本城的居民、说、我们不如去事奉你们素来所不认识的别神.
Certain base fellows are gone out from the midst of thee, and have drawn away the inhabitants of their city, saying, Let us go and serve other gods, which ye have not known;
14
你就要探听、查究、细细的访问、果然是真、准有这可憎恶的事行在你们中间、
then shalt thou inquire, and make search, and ask diligently; and, behold, if it be truth, and the thing certain, that such abomination is wrought in the midst of thee,
15
你必要用刀杀那城里的居民、把城里所有的、连牲畜、都用刀杀尽。
thou shalt surely smite the inhabitants of that city with the edge of the sword, destroying it utterly, and all that is therein and the cattle thereof, with the edge of the sword.
16
你从那城里所夺的财物都要堆积在街市上、用火将城和其内所夺的财物、都在耶和华你 神、面前烧尽.那城就永为荒堆、不可再建造。
And thou shalt gather all the spoil of it into the midst of the street thereof, and shalt burn with fire the city, and all the spoil thereof every whit, unto Jehovah thy God: and it shall be a heap for ever; it shall not be built again.
17
那当毁灭的物、连一点都不可粘你的手.你要听从耶和华你 神的话、遵守我今日所吩咐你的一切诫命、行耶和华你 神眼中看为正的事、耶和华就必转意不发烈怒、恩待你、怜恤你、照他向你列祖所起的誓、使你人数增多。
And there shall cleave nought of the devoted thing to thy hand; that Jehovah may turn from the fierceness of his anger, and show thee mercy, and have compassion upon thee, and multiply thee, as he hath sworn unto thy fathers;
18
那当毁灭的物、连一点都不可粘你的手.你要听从耶和华你 神的话、遵守我今日所吩咐你的一切诫命、行耶和华你 神眼中看为正的事、耶和华就必转意不发烈怒、恩待你、怜恤你、照他向你列祖所起的誓、使你人数增多。
when thou shalt hearken to the voice of Jehovah thy God, to keep all his commandments which I command thee this day, to do that which is right in the eyes of Jehovah thy God.
第14章
1
你们是耶和华你们 神的儿女.不可为死人用刀划身、也不可将额上剃光.
Ye are the children of Jehovah your God: ye shall not cut yourselves, nor make any baldness between your eyes for the dead.
2
因为你归耶和华你 神为圣洁的民、耶和华从地上的万民中、拣选你特作自己的子民。
For thou art a holy people unto Jehovah thy God, and Jehovah hath chosen thee to be a people for his own possession, above all peoples that are upon the face of the earth.
3
凡可憎的物都不可吃。
Thou shalt not eat any abominable thing.
4
可吃的牲畜就是牛、绵羊、山羊、
These are the beasts which ye may eat: the ox, the sheep, and the goat,
5
鹿、羚羊、麅子、野山羊、麋鹿、黄羊、青羊。
the hart, and the gazelle, and the roebuck, and the wild goat, and the pygarg, and the antelope, and the chamois.
6
凡分蹄成为两瓣、又倒嚼的走兽、你们都可以吃。
And every beast that parteth the hoof, and hath the hoof cloven in two, [and] cheweth the cud, among the beasts, that may ye eat.
7
但那些倒嚼、或是分蹄之中不可吃的、乃是骆驼、兔子、沙番、因为是倒嚼不分蹄、就与你们不洁净。
Nevertheless these ye shall not eat of them that chew the cud, or of them that have the hoof cloven: the camel, and the hare, and the coney; because they chew the cud but part not the hoof, they are unclean unto you.
8
猪因为是分蹄却不倒嚼、就与你们不洁净.这些兽的肉你们不可吃、死的也不可摸。
And the swine, because he parteth the hoof but cheweth not the cud, he is unclean unto you: of their flesh ye shall not eat, and their carcasses ye shall not touch.
9
水中可吃的、乃是这些.凡有翅有鳞的、都可以吃、
These ye may eat of all that are in the waters: whatsoever hath fins and scales may ye eat;
10
凡无翅无鳞的、都不可吃、是与你们不洁净。
and whatsoever hath not fins and scales ye shall not eat; it is unclean unto you.
11
凡洁净的鸟、你们都可以吃。
Of all clean birds ye may eat.
12
不可吃的、乃是雕、狗头雕、红头雕、
But these are they of which ye shall not eat: the eagle, and the gier-eagle, and the ospray,
13
鹯、小鹰、鹞鹰、与其类.
and the glede, and the falcon, and the kite after its kind,
14
乌鸦与其类.
and every raven after its kind,
15
鸵鸟、夜鹰、鱼鹰、鹰与其类.
and the ostrich, and the night-hawk, and the sea-mew, and the hawk after its kind,
16
鸮鸟、猫头鹰、角鸱、
the little owl, and the great owl, and the horned owl,
17
鹈鹕、秃雕、鸬鹚、
and the pelican, and the vulture, and the cormorant,
18
鹳、鹭鸶、与其类.戴鵀、与蝙蝠。
and the stork, and the heron after its kind, and the hoopoe, and the bat.
19
凡有翅膀爬行的物、是与你们不洁净、都不可吃。
And all winged creeping things are unclean unto you: they shall not be eaten.
20
凡洁净的鸟、你们都可以吃。
Of all clean birds ye may eat.
21
凡自死的、你们都不可吃、可以给你城里寄居的吃、或卖与外人吃.因为你是归耶和华你 神为圣洁的民。不可用山羊羔母的奶煮山羊羔。
Ye shall not eat of anything that dieth of itself: thou mayest give it unto the sojourner that is within thy gates, that he may eat it; or thou mayest sell it unto a foreigner: for thou art a holy people unto Jehovah thy God. Thou shalt not boil a kid in its mother`s milk.
22
你要把你撒种所产的、就是你田地每年所出的、十分取一分。
Thou shalt surely tithe all the increase of thy seed, that which cometh forth from the field year by year.
23
又要把你的五谷、新酒、和油的十分之一、并牛群羊群中头生的、吃在耶和华你 神面前、就是他所选择要立为他名的居所.这样、你可以学习时常敬畏耶和华你的 神。
And thou shalt eat before Jehovah thy God, in the place which he shall choose, to cause his name to dwell there, the tithe of thy grain, of thy new wine, and of thine oil, and the firstlings of thy herd and of thy flock; that thou mayest learn to fear Jehovah thy God always.
24
当耶和华你 神赐福与你的时候、耶和华你 神所选择要立为他名的地方、若离你太远、那路也太长、使你不能把这物带到那里去、
And if the way be too long for thee, so that thou art not able to carry it, because the place is too far from thee, which Jehovah thy God shall choose, to set his name there, when Jehovah thy God shall bless thee;
25
你就可以换成银子、将银子包起来、拿在手中、往耶和华你 神所要选择的地方去。
then shalt thou turn it into money, and bind up the money in thy hand, and shalt go unto the place which Jehovah thy God shall choose:
26
你用这银子、随心所欲、或买牛羊、或买清酒、浓酒、凡你心所想的、都可以买.你和你的家属、在耶和华你 神的面前、吃喝快乐。
and thou shalt bestow the money for whatsoever thy soul desireth, for oxen, or for sheep, or for wine, or for strong drink, or for whatsoever thy soul asketh of thee; and thou shalt eat there before Jehovah thy God, and thou shalt rejoice, thou and thy household.
27
住在你城里的利未人、你不可丢弃他、因为他在你们中间无分无业。
And the Levite that is within thy gates, thou shalt not forsake him; for he hath no portion nor inheritance with thee.
28
每逢三年的末一年、你要将本年的土产十分之一、都取出来、积存在你的城中。
At the end of every three years thou shalt bring forth all the tithe of thine increase in the same year, and shalt lay it up within thy gates:
29
在你城里无分无业的利未人、和你城里寄居的、并孤儿寡妇、都可以来、吃得饱足.这样、耶和华你的 神必在你手里所办的一切事上、赐福与你。
and the Levite, because he hath no portion nor inheritance with thee, and the sojourner, and the fatherless, and the widow, that are within thy gates, shall come, and shall eat and be satisfied; that Jehovah thy God may bless thee in all the work of thy hand which thou doest.
第15章
1
每逢七年末一年、你要施行豁免。
At the end of every seven years thou shalt make a release.
2
豁免的定例乃是这样.凡债主要把所借给邻舍的豁免了、不可向邻舍和弟兄追讨、因为耶和华的豁免年已经宣告了。
And this is the manner of the release: every creditor shall release that which he hath lent unto his neighbor; he shall not exact it of his neighbor and his brother; because Jehovah`s release hath been proclaimed.
3
若借给外邦人、你可以向他追讨、但借给你弟兄、无论是甚么、你要松手豁免了。
Of a foreigner thou mayest exact it: but whatsoever of thine is with thy brother thy hand shall release.
4
你若留意听从耶和华你 神的话、谨守遵行我今日所吩咐你这一切的命令、就必在你们中间没有穷人了.(在耶和华你 神所赐你为业的地上、耶和华必大大赐福与你)
Howbeit there shall be no poor with thee; (for Jehovah will surely bless thee in the land which Jehovah thy God giveth thee for an inheritance to possess it;)
5
你若留意听从耶和华你 神的话、谨守遵行我今日所吩咐你这一切的命令、就必在你们中间没有穷人了.(在耶和华你 神所赐你为业的地上、耶和华必大大赐福与你)
if only thou diligently hearken unto the voice of Jehovah thy God, to observe to do all this commandment which I command thee this day.
6
因为耶和华你的 神、必照他所应许你的赐福与你、你必借给许多国民、却不至向他们借贷.你必管辖许多国民、他们却不能管辖你。
For Jehovah thy God will bless thee, as he promised thee: and thou shalt lend unto many nations, but thou shalt not borrow; and thou shalt rule over many nations, but they shall not rule over thee.
7
在耶和华你 神所赐你的地上、无论那一座城里、你弟兄中若有一个穷人、你不可忍着心、揝着手、不帮补你穷乏的弟兄。
If there be with thee a poor man, one of thy brethren, within any of thy gates in thy land which Jehovah thy God giveth thee, thou shalt not harden thy heart, nor shut thy hand from thy poor brother;
8
总要向他松开手、照他所缺乏的借给他、补他的不足。
but thou shalt surely open thy hand unto him, and shalt surely lend him sufficient for his need [in that] which he wanteth.
9
你要谨慎、不可心里起恶念、说、第七年的豁免年、快到了.你便恶眼看你穷乏的弟兄、甚么都不给他、以致他因你求告耶和华、罪便归于你了。
Beware that there be not a base thought in thy heart, saying, The seventh year, the year of release, is at hand; and thine eye be evil against thy poor brother, and thou give him nought; and he cry unto Jehovah against thee, and it be sin unto thee.
10
你总要给他、给他的时候、心里不可愁烦、因耶和华你的 神必在你这一切所行的、并你手里所办的事上、赐福与你。
Thou shalt surely give him, and thy heart shall not be grieved when thou givest unto him; because that for this thing Jehovah thy God will bless thee in all thy work, and in all that thou puttest thy hand unto.
11
原来那地上的穷人永不断绝、所以我吩咐你说、总要向你地上困苦穷乏的弟兄松开手。
For the poor will never cease out of the land: therefore I command thee, saying, Thou shalt surely open thy hand unto thy brother, to thy needy, and to thy poor, in thy land.
12
你弟兄中若有一个希伯来男人、或希伯来女人被卖给你、服事你六年、到第七年就要任他自由出去。
If thy brother, a Hebrew man, or a Hebrew woman, be sold unto thee, and serve thee six years; then in the seventh year thou shalt let him go free from thee.
13
你任他自由的时候、不可使他空手而去.
And when thou lettest him go free from thee, thou shalt not let him go empty:
14
要从你羊群、禾场、酒醡之中、多多的给他、耶和华你的 神怎样赐福与你、你也要照样给他。
thou shalt furnish him liberally out of thy flock, and out of thy threshing-floor, and out of thy winepress; as Jehovah thy God hath blessed thee thou shalt give unto him.
15
要记念你在埃及地作过奴仆、耶和华你的 神将你救赎、因此、我今日吩咐你这件事。
And thou shalt remember that thou wast a bondman in the land of Egypt, and Jehovah thy God redeemed thee: therefore I command thee this thing to-day.
16
他若对你说、我不愿意离开你、是因他爱你和你的家、且因在你那里很好、
And it shall be, if he say unto thee, I will not go out from thee; because he loveth thee and thy house, because he is well with thee;
17
你就要拿锥子、将他的耳朵在门上刺透、他便永为你的奴仆了.你待婢女也要这样。
then thou shalt take an awl, and thrust it through his ear unto the door, and he shall be thy servant for ever. And also unto thy maid-servant thou shalt do likewise.
18
你任他自由的时候、不可以为难事、因他服事你六年、较比雇工的工价多加一倍了.耶和华你的 神、就必在你所作的一切事上、赐福与你。
It shall not seem hard unto thee, when thou lettest him go free from thee; for to the double of the hire of a hireling hath he served thee six years: and Jehovah thy God will bless thee in all that thou doest.
19
你牛群羊群中头生的、凡是公的、都要分别为圣归耶和华你的 神.牛群中头生的、不可用他耕地.羊群中头生的不可剪毛。
All the firstling males that are born of thy herd and of thy flock thou shalt sanctify unto Jehovah thy God: thou shalt do no work with the firstling of thy herd, nor shear the firstling of thy flock.
20
这头生的、你和你的家属、每年要在耶和华所选择的地方、在耶和华你 神面前吃。
Thou shalt eat it before Jehovah thy God year by year in the place which Jehovah shall choose, thou and thy household.
21
这头生的、若有甚么残疾、就如瘸腿的、瞎眼的、无论有甚么恶残疾、都不可献给耶和华你的 神。
And if it have any blemish, [as if it be] lame or blind, any ill blemish whatsoever, thou shalt not sacrifice it unto Jehovah thy God.
22
可以在你城里吃、洁净人、与不洁净人、都可以吃、就如吃羚羊、与鹿一般。
Thou shalt eat it within thy gates: the unclean and the clean [shall eat it] alike, as the gazelle, and as the hart.
23
只是不可吃他的血、要倒在地上、如同倒水一样。
Only thou shalt not eat the blood thereof; thou shalt pour it out upon the ground as water.
第16章
1
你要注意亚笔月、向耶和华你的 神守逾越节、因为耶和华你的 神在亚笔月夜间、领你出埃及。
Observe the month of Abib, and keep the passover unto Jehovah thy God; for in the month of Abib Jehovah thy God brought thee forth out of Egypt by night.
2
你当在耶和华所选择要立为他名的居所、从牛群羊群中、将逾越节的祭牲献给耶和华你的 神.
And thou shalt sacrifice the passover unto Jehovah thy God, of the flock and the herd, in the place which Jehovah shall choose, to cause his name to dwell there.
3
你吃这祭牲不可吃有酵的饼、七日之内要吃无酵饼、就是困苦饼.(你本是急忙出了埃及地)要叫你一生一世记念你从埃及地出来的日子。
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
在你四境之内、七日不可见面酵.头一日晚上所献的肉、一点不可留到早晨。
And there shall be no leaven seen with thee in all thy borders seven days; neither shall any of the flesh, which thou sacrificest the first day at even, remain all night until the morning.
5
在耶和华你 神所赐的各城中、你不可献逾越节的祭、
Thou mayest not sacrifice the passover within any of thy gates, which Jehovah thy God giveth thee;
6
只当在耶和华你 神所选择要立为他名的居所、晚上日落的时候、乃是你出埃及的时候、献逾越节的祭。
but at the place which Jehovah thy God shall choose, to cause his name to dwell 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
当在耶和华你 神所选择的地方、把肉烤了吃.〈烤或作煮〉次日早晨就回到你的帐棚去。
And thou shalt roast and eat it in the place which Jehovah thy God shall choose: and thou shalt turn in the morning, and go unto thy tents.
8
你要吃无酵饼六日、第七日要向耶和华你的 神守严肃会、不可作工。
Six days thou shalt eat unleavened bread; and on the seventh day shall be a solemn assembly to Jehovah thy God; thou shalt do no work [therein].
9
你要计算七七日、从你开镰收割禾稼时算起、共计七七日。
Seven weeks shalt thou number unto thee: from the time thou beginnest to put the sickle to the standing grain shalt thou begin to number seven weeks.
10
你要照耶和华你 神所赐你的福、手里拿着甘心祭、献在耶和华你的 神面前守七七节。
And thou shalt keep the feast of weeks unto Jehovah thy God with a tribute of a freewill-offering of thy hand, which thou shalt give, according as Jehovah thy God blesseth thee:
11
你和你儿女、仆婢、并住在你城里的利未人、以及在你们中间寄居的、与孤儿寡妇、都要在耶和华你 神所选择立为他名的居所、在耶和华你的 神面前欢乐。
and thou shalt rejoice before Jehovah thy God, thou, and thy son, and thy daughter, and thy man-servant, and thy maid-servant, and the Levite that is within thy gates, and the sojourner, and the fatherless, and the widow, that are in the midst of thee, in the place which Jehovah thy God shall choose, to cause his name to dwell there.
12
你也要记念你在埃及作过奴仆.你要谨守遵行这些律例。
And thou shalt remember that thou wast a bondman in Egypt: and thou shalt observe and do these statutes.
13
你把禾场的谷、酒醡的酒、收藏以后、就要守住棚节七日。
Thou shalt keep the feast of tabernacles seven days, after that thou hast gathered in from thy threshing-floor and from thy winepress:
14
守节的时候、你和你儿女、仆婢、并住在你城里的利未人、以及寄居的、与孤儿寡妇、都要欢乐。
and thou shalt rejoice in thy feast, thou, and thy son, and thy daughter, and thy man-servant, and thy maid-servant, and the Levite, and the sojourner, and the fatherless, and the widow, that are within thy gates.
15
在耶和华所选择的地方、你当向耶和华你的 神守节七日.因为耶和华你 神在你一切的土产上、和你手里所办的事上、要赐福与你、你就非常的欢乐。
Seven days shalt thou keep a feast unto Jehovah thy God in the place which Jehovah shall choose; because Jehovah thy God will bless thee in all thine increase, and in all the work of thy hands, and thou shalt be altogether joyful.
16
你一切的男丁、要在除酵节、七七节、住棚节、一年三次、在耶和华你 神所选择的地方朝见他、却不可空手朝见.
Three times in a year shall all thy males appear before Jehovah 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 Jehovah empty:
17
各人要按自己的力量、照耶和华你 神所赐的福分、奉献礼物。
every man shall give as he is able, according to the blessing of Jehovah thy God which he hath given thee.
18
你要在耶和华你 神所赐的各城里、按着各支派、设立审判官、和官长。他们必按公义的审判、判断百姓。
Judges and officers shalt thou make thee in all thy gates, which Jehovah thy God giveth thee, according to thy tribes; and they shall judge the people with righteous judgment.
19
不可屈枉正直、不可看人的外貌、也不可受贿赂、因为贿赂能叫智慧人的眼变瞎了、又能颠倒义人的话。
Thou shalt not wrest justice: thou shalt not respect persons; neither shalt thou take a bribe; for a bribe doth blind the eyes of the wise, and pervert the words of the righteous.
20
你要追求至公、至义、好叫你存活、承受耶和华你 神所赐你的地。
That which is altogether just shalt thou follow, that thou mayest live, and inherit the land which Jehovah thy God giveth thee.
21
你为耶和华你的 神筑坛、不可在坛旁栽甚么树木、作为木偶。
Thou shalt not plant thee an Asherah of any kind of tree beside the altar of Jehovah thy God, which thou shalt make thee.
22
也不可为自己设立柱像、这是耶和华你 神所恨恶的。
Neither shalt thou set thee up a pillar; which Jehovah thy God hateth.
第17章
1
凡有残疾、或有甚么恶病的牛羊、你都不可献给耶和华你的 神、因为这是耶和华你 神所憎恶的。
Thou shalt not sacrifice unto Jehovah thy God an ox, or a sheep, wherein is a blemish, [or] anything evil; for that is an abomination unto Jehovah thy God.
2
在你们中间、在耶和华你 神所赐你的诸城中、无论那座城里、若有人、或男、或女、行耶和华你 神眼中看为恶的事、违背了他的约、
If there be found in the midst of thee, within any of thy gates which Jehovah thy God giveth thee, man or woman, that doeth that which is evil in the sight of Jehovah thy God, in transgressing his covenant,
3
去事奉敬拜别神、或拜日头、或拜月亮、或拜天象、是主不曾吩咐的.
and hath gone and served other gods, and worshipped them, or the sun, or the moon, or any of the host of heaven, which I have not commanded;
4
有人告诉你、你也听见了、就要细细的探听、果然是真、准有这可憎恶的事、行在以色列中、
and it be told thee, and thou hast heard of it, then shalt thou inquire diligently; and, behold, if it be true, and the thing certain, that such abomination is wrought in Israel,
5
你就要将行这恶事的男人、或女人、拉到城门外、用石头将他打死。
then shalt thou bring forth that man or that woman, who hath done this evil thing, unto thy gates, even the man or the woman; and thou shalt stone them to death with stones.
6
要凭两三个人的口作见证、将那当死的人治死、不可凭一个人的口作见证、将他治死。
At the mouth of two witnesses, or three witnesses, shall he that is to die be put to death; at the mouth of one witness he shall not be put to death.
7
见证人要先下手、然后众民也下手、将他治死.这样、就把那恶从你们中间除掉。
The hand of the witnesses shall be first upon him to put him to death, and afterward the hand of all the people. So thou shalt put away the evil from the midst of thee.
8
你城中若起了争讼的事、或因流血、或因争竞、或因殴打、是你难断的案件、你就当起来、往耶和华你 神所选择的地方、
If there arise a matter too hard for thee in judgment, between blood and blood, between plea and plea, and between stroke and stroke, being matters of controversy within thy gates; then shalt thou arise, and get thee up unto the place which Jehovah thy God shall choose;
9
去见祭司利未人、并当时的审判官、求问他们、他们必将判语指示你。
and thou shalt come unto the priests the Levites, and unto the judge that shall be in those days: and thou shalt inquire; and they shall show thee the sentence of judgment.
10
他们在耶和华所选择的地方指示你的判语、你必照着他们所指教你的一切话、谨守遵行.
And thou shalt do according to the tenor of the sentence which they shall show thee from that place which Jehovah shall choose; and thou shalt observe to do according to all that they shall teach thee:
11
要按他们所指教你的律法、照他们所断定的去行、他们所指示你的判语、你不可偏离左右。
according to the tenor of the law which they shall teach thee, and according to the judgment which they shall tell thee, thou shalt do; thou shalt not turn aside from the sentence which they shall show thee, to the right hand, nor to the left.
12
若有人擅敢不听从那侍立在耶和华你 神面前的祭司、或不听从审判官、那人就必治死.这样、便将那恶从以色列中除掉。
And the man that doeth presumptuously, in not hearkening unto the priest that standeth to minister there before Jehovah thy God, or unto the judge, even that man shall die: and thou shalt put away the evil from Israel.
13
众百姓都要听见害怕、不再擅敢行事。
And all the people shall hear, and fear, and do no more presumptuously.
14
到了耶和华你 神所赐你的地、得了那地、居住的时候、若说、我要立王治理我、像四围的国一样。
When thou art come unto the land which Jehovah thy God giveth thee, and shalt possess it, and shalt dwell therein, and shalt say, I will set a king over me, like all the nations that are round about me;
15
你总要立耶和华你 神所拣选的人为王.必从你弟兄中立一人、不可立你弟兄以外的人为王。
thou shalt surely set him king over thee, whom Jehovah thy God shall choose: one from among thy brethren shalt thou set king over thee; thou mayest not put a foreigner over thee, who is not thy brother.
16
只是王不可为自己加添马匹、也不可使百姓回埃及去、为要加添他的马匹、因耶和华曾吩咐你们说、不可再回那条路去。
Only he shall not multiply horses to himself, nor cause the people to return to Egypt, to the end that he may multiply horses; forasmuch as Jehovah hath said unto you, Ye shall henceforth return no more that way.
17
他也不可为自己多立妃嫔、恐怕他的心偏邪.也不可为自己多积金银。
Neither shall he multiply wives to himself, that his heart turn not away: neither shall he greatly multiply to himself silver and gold.
18
他登了国位、就要将祭司利未人面前的这律法书、为自己抄录一本、
And it shall be, when he sitteth upon the throne of his kingdom, that he shall write him a copy of this law in a book, out of [that which is] before the priests the Levites:
19
存在他那里、要平生诵读、好学习敬畏耶和华他的 神、谨守遵行这律法书上的一切言语、和这些律例.
and it shall be with him, and he shall read therein all the days of his life; that he may learn to fear Jehovah his God, to keep all the words of this law and these statutes, to do them;
20
免得他向弟兄心高气傲、偏左偏右、离了这诫命.这样、他和他的子孙便可在以色列中在国位上年长日久。
that his heart be not lifted up above his brethren, and that he turn not aside from the commandment, to the right hand, or to the left: to the end that he may prolong his days in his kingdom, he and his children, in the midst of Israel.
第18章
1
祭司利未人和利未全支派、必在以色列中无分无业、他们所吃用的、就是献给耶和华的火祭、和一切所捐的。
The priests the Levites, [even] all the tribe of Levi, shall have no portion nor inheritance with Israel: they shall eat the offerings of Jehovah made by fire, and his inheritance.
2
他们在弟兄中必没有产业、耶和华是他们的产业、正如耶和华所应许他们的。
And they shall have no inheritance among their brethren: Jehovah is their inheritance, as he hath spoken unto them.
3
祭司从百姓所当得的分乃是这样.凡献牛或羊为祭的、要把前腿、和两腮、并脾胃给祭司。
And this shall be the priests` due from the people, from them that offer a sacrifice, whether it be ox or sheep, that they shall give unto the priest the shoulder, and the two cheeks, and the maw.
4
初收的五谷、新酒、和油、并初剪的羊毛、也要给他。
The first-fruits of thy grain, of thy new wine, and of thine oil, and the first of the fleece of thy sheep, shalt thou give him.
5
因为耶和华你的 神、从你各支派中将他拣选出来、使他和他子孙、永远奉耶和华的名侍立事奉。
For Jehovah thy God hath chosen him out of all thy tribes, to stand to minister in the name of Jehovah, him and his sons for ever.
6
利未人、无论寄居在以色列中的那一座城、若从那里出来、一心愿意到耶和华所选择的地方、
And if a Levite come from any of thy gates out of all Israel, where he sojourneth, and come with all the desire of his soul unto the place which Jehovah shall choose;
7
就要奉耶和华他 神的名事奉、像他众弟兄利未人侍立在耶和华面前事奉一样。
then he shall minister in the name of Jehovah his God, as all his brethren the Levites do, who stand there before Jehovah.
8
除了他卖祖父产业所得的以外、还要得一分祭物与他们同吃。
They shall have like portions to eat, besides that which cometh of the sale of his patrimony.
9
你到了耶和华你 神所赐之地、那些国民所行可憎恶的事、你不可学着行。
When thou art come into the land which Jehovah thy God giveth thee, thou shalt not learn to do after the abominations of those nations.
10
你们中间不可有人使儿女经火、也不可有占卜的、观兆的、用法术的、行邪术的、
There shall not be found with thee any one that maketh his son or his daughter to pass through the fire, one that useth divination, one that practiseth augury, or an enchanter, or a sorcerer,
11
用迷术的、交鬼的、行巫术的、过阴的。
or a charmer, or a consulter with a familiar spirit, or a wizard, or a necromancer.
12
凡行这些事的、都为耶和华所憎恶.因那些国民行这可憎恶的事、所以耶和华你的 神将他们从你面前赶出。
For whosoever doeth these things is an abomination unto Jehovah: and because of these abominations Jehovah thy God doth drive them out from before thee.
13
你要在耶和华你的 神面前作完全人。
Thou shalt be perfect with Jehovah thy God.
14
因你所要赶出的那些国民、都听信观兆的、和占卜的、至于你、耶和华你的 神从来不许你这样行。
For these nations, that thou shalt dispossess, hearken unto them that practise augury, and unto diviners; but as for thee, Jehovah thy God hath not suffered thee so to do.
15
耶和华你的 神要从你们弟兄中间、给你兴起一位先知像我、你们要听从他。
Jehovah thy God will raise up unto thee a prophet from the midst of thee, of thy brethren, like unto me; unto him ye shall hearken;
16
正如你在何烈山大会的日子、求耶和华你 神一切的话说、求你不再叫我听见耶和华我 神的声音、也不再叫我看见这大火、免得我死亡。
according to all that thou desiredst of Jehovah thy God in Horeb in the day of the assembly, saying, Let me not hear again the voice of Jehovah my God, neither let me see this great fire any more, that I die not.
17
耶和华就对我说、他们所说的是。
And Jehovah said unto me, They have well said that which they have spoken.
18
我必在他们弟兄中间、给他们兴起一位先知像你、我要将当说的话传给他、他要将我一切所吩咐的、都传给他们。
I will raise them up a prophet from among their brethren, like unto thee; and I will put my words in his mouth, and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him.
19
谁不听他奉我名所说的话、我必讨谁的罪。
And it shall come to pass, that whosoever will not hearken unto my words which he shall speak in my name, I will require it of him.
20
若有先知擅敢托我的名、说我所未曾吩咐他说的话、或是奉别神的名说话、那先知就必治死。
But the prophet, that shall speak a word presumptuously in my name, which I have not commanded him to speak, or that shall speak in the name of other gods, that same prophet shall die.
21
你心里若说、耶和华所未曾吩咐的话我们怎能知道呢。
And if thou say in thy heart, How shall we know the word which Jehovah hath not spoken?
22
先知托耶和华的名说话、所说的若不成就、也无效验、这就是耶和华所未曾吩咐的、是那先知擅自说的、你不要怕他。
when a prophet speaketh in the name of Jehovah, if the thing follow not, nor come to pass, that is the thing which Jehovah hath not spoken: the prophet hath spoken it presumptuously, thou shalt not be afraid of him.
第19章
1
耶和华你 神将列国之民剪除的时候、耶和华你 神也将他们的地赐给你、你接着住他们的城邑、并他们的房屋、
When Jehovah thy God shall cut off the nations, whose land Jehovah thy God giveth thee, and thou succeedest them, and dwellest in their cities, and in their houses;
2
就要在耶和华你 神所赐你为业的地上、分定三座城。
thou shalt set apart three cities for thee in the midst of thy land, which Jehovah thy God giveth thee to possess it.
3
要将耶和华你 神使你承受为业的地、分为三段、又要豫备道路使误杀人的、都可以逃到那里去。
Thou shalt prepare thee the way, and divide the borders of thy land, which Jehovah thy God causeth thee to inherit, into three parts, that every manslayer may flee thither.
4
误杀人的逃到那里可以存活、定例乃是这样.凡素无仇恨、无心杀了人的、
And this is the case of the manslayer, that shall flee thither and live: whoso killeth his neighbor unawares, and hated him not in time past;
5
就如人与邻舍同入树林砍伐树木、手拿斧子一砍、本想砍下树木、不料、斧头脱了把、飞落在邻舍身上、以致于死、这人逃到那些城的一座城、就可以存活.
as when a man goeth into the forest with his neighbor to hew wood, and his hand fetcheth a stroke with the axe to cut down the tree, and the head slippeth from the helve, and lighteth upon his neighbor, so that he dieth; he shall flee unto one of these cities and live:
6
免得报血仇的、心中火热追赶他、因路远就追上将他杀死、其实他不该死、因为他与被杀的素无仇恨。
lest the avenger of blood pursue the manslayer, while his heart is hot, and overtake him, because the way is long, and smite him mortally; whereas he was not worthy of death, inasmuch as he hated him not in time past.
7
所以我吩咐你说、要分定三座城。
Wherefore I command thee, saying, Thou shalt set apart three cities for thee.
8
耶和华你 神、若照他向你列祖所起的誓、扩张你的境界、将所应许赐你列祖的地、全然给你.
And if Jehovah thy God enlarge thy border, as he hath sworn unto thy fathers, and give thee all the land which he promised to give unto thy fathers;
9
你若谨守遵行我今日所吩咐的这一切诫命、爱耶和华你的 神、常常遵行他的道、就要在这三座城之外、再添三座城.
if thou shalt keep all this commandment to do it, which I command thee this day, to love Jehovah thy God, and to walk ever in his ways; then shalt thou add three cities more for thee, besides these three:
10
免得无辜之人的血、流在耶和华你 神所赐你为业的地上、流血的罪就归于你。
that innocent blood be not shed in the midst of thy land, which Jehovah thy God giveth thee for an inheritance, and so blood be upon thee.
11
若有人恨他的邻舍、埋伏着、起来击杀他、以致于死、便逃到这些城的一座城.
But if any man hate his neighbor, and lie in wait for him, and rise up against him, and smite him mortally so that he dieth, and he flee into one of these cities;
12
本城的长老就要打发人去、从那里带出他来、交在报血仇的手中将他治死。
then the elders of his city shall send and fetch him thence, and deliver him into the hand of the avenger of blood, that he may die.
13
你眼不可顾惜他、却要从以色列中除掉流无辜血的罪、使你可以得福。
Thine eye shall not pity him, but thou shalt put away the innocent blood from Israel, that it may go well with thee.
14
在耶和华你 神所赐你承受为业之地、不可挪移你邻舍的地界、那是先人所定的。
Thou shalt not remove thy neighbor`s landmark, which they of old time have set, in thine inheritance which thou shalt inherit, in the land that Jehovah thy God giveth thee to possess it.
15
人无论犯甚么罪、作甚么恶、不可凭一个人的口作见证、总要凭两三个人的口作见证、才可定案。
One witness shall not rise up against a man for any iniquity, or for any sin, in any sin that he sinneth: at the mouth of two witnesses, or at the mouth of three witnesses, shall a matter be established.
16
若有凶恶的见证人起来、见证某人作恶、
If an unrighteous witness rise up against any man to testify against him of wrong-doing,
17
这两个争讼的人就要站在耶和华面前、和当时的祭司、并审判官面前、
then both the men, between whom the controversy is, shall stand before Jehovah, before the priests and the judges that shall be in those days;
18
审判官要细细的查究、若见证人果然是作假见证的、以假见证陷害弟兄、
and the judges shall make diligent inquisition: and, behold, if the witness be a false witness, and have testified falsely against his brother;
19
你们就要待他如同他想要待的弟兄.这样就把那恶从你们中间除掉。
then shall ye do unto him, as he had thought to do unto his brother: so shalt thou put away the evil from the midst of thee.
20
别人听见都要害怕、就不敢在你们中间再行这样的恶了。
And those that remain shall hear, and fear, and shall henceforth commit no more any such evil in the midst of thee.
21
你眼不可顾惜、要以命偿命、以眼还眼、以牙还牙、以手还手、以脚还脚。
And thine eyes shall not pity; life [shall go] for life, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot.
第20章
1
你出去与仇敌争战的时候、看见马匹、车辆、并有比你多的人民、不要怕他们、因为领你出埃及地的耶和华你 神与你同在。
When thou goest forth to battle against thine enemies, and seest horses, and chariots, [and] a people more than thou, thou shalt not be afraid of them; for Jehovah thy God is with thee, who brought thee up out of the land of Egypt.
2
你们将要上阵的时候、祭司要到百姓面前宣告、
And it shall be, when ye draw nigh unto the battle, that the priest shall approach and speak unto the people,
3
说、以色列人哪、你们当听、你们今日将要与仇敌争战、不要胆怯、不要惧怕战兢、也不要因他们惊恐.
and shall say unto them, Hear, O Israel, ye draw nigh this day unto battle against your enemies: let not your heart faint; fear not, nor tremble, neither be ye affrighted at them;
4
因为耶和华你们的 神与你们同去、要为你们与仇敌争战、拯救你们。
for Jehovah your God is he that goeth with you, to fight for you against your enemies, to save you.
5
官长也要对百姓宣告说、谁建造房屋、尚未奉献、他可以回家去、恐怕他阵亡、别人去奉献。
And the officers shall speak unto the people, saying, What man is there that hath built a new house, and hath not dedicated it? let him go and return to his house, lest he die in the battle, and another man dedicate it.
6
谁种葡萄园、尚未用所结的果子、他可以回家去、恐怕他阵亡、别人去用。
And what man is there that hath planted a vineyard, and hath not used the fruit thereof? let him go and return unto his house, lest he die in the battle, and another man use the fruit thereof.
7
谁聘定了妻、尚未迎娶、他可以回家去、恐怕他阵亡、别人去娶。
And what man is there that hath betrothed a wife, and hath not taken her? let him go and return unto his house, lest he die in the battle, and another man take her.
8
官长又要对百姓宣告说、谁惧怕胆怯、他可以回家去、恐怕他弟兄的心消化、和他一样。
And the officers shall speak further unto the people, and they shall say, What man is there that is fearful and faint-hearted? let him go and return unto his house, lest his brethren`s heart melt as his heart.
9
官长对百姓宣告完了、就当派军长率领他们。
And it shall be, when the officers have made an end of speaking unto the people, that they shall appoint captains of hosts at the head of the people.
10
你临近一座城要攻打的时候、先要对城里的民宣告和睦的话。
When thou drawest nigh unto a city to fight against it, then proclaim peace unto it.
11
他们若以和睦的话回答你、给你开了城、城里所有的人都要给你效劳、服事你。
And it shall be, if it make thee answer of peace, and open unto thee, then it shall be, that all the people that are found therein shall become tributary unto thee, and shall serve thee.
12
若不肯与你和好、反要与你打仗、你就要围困那城。
And if it will make no peace with thee, but will make war against thee, then thou shalt besiege it:
13
耶和华你的 神、把城交付你手、你就要用刀杀尽这城的男丁。
and when Jehovah thy God delivereth it into thy hand, thou shalt smite every male thereof with the edge of the sword:
14
惟有妇女、孩子、牲畜、和城内一切的财物、你可以取为自己的掠物、耶和华你 神把你仇敌的财物赐给你、你可以吃用。
but the women, and the little ones, and the cattle, and all that is in the city, even all the spoil thereof, shalt thou take for a prey unto thyself; and thou shalt eat the spoil of thine enemies, which Jehovah thy God hath given thee.
15
离你甚远的各城、不是这些国民的城、你都要这样待他。
Thus shalt thou do unto all the cities which are very far off from thee, which are not of the cities of these nations.
16
但这些国民的城、耶和华你 神既赐你为业、其中凡有气息的、一个不可存留、
But of the cities of these peoples, that Jehovah thy God giveth thee for an inheritance, thou shalt save alive nothing that breatheth;
17
只要照耶和华你 神所吩咐的、将这赫人、亚摩利人、迦南人、比利洗人、希未人、耶布斯人、都灭绝净尽.
but thou shalt utterly destroy them: the Hittite, and the Amorite, the Canaanite, and the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite; as Jehovah thy God hath commanded thee;
18
免得他们教导你们学习一切可憎恶的事、就是他们向自己神所行的、以致你们得罪耶和华你们的 神。
that they teach you not to do after all their abominations, which they have done unto their gods; so would ye sin against Jehovah your God.
19
你若许久围困攻打所要取的一座城、就不可举斧子砍坏树木、因为你可以吃那树上的果子、不可砍伐.田间的树木岂是人、叫你糟蹋么。
When thou shalt besiege a city a long time, in making war against it to take it, thou shalt not destroy the trees thereof by wielding an axe against them; for thou mayest eat of them, and thou shalt not cut them down; for is the tree of the field man, that it should be besieged of thee?
20
惟独你所知道不是结果子的树木、可以毁坏砍伐、用以修筑营垒、攻击那与你打仗的城、直到攻塌了。
Only the trees of which thou knowest that they are not trees for food, thou shalt destroy and cut them down; and thou shalt build bulwarks against the city that maketh war with thee, until it fall.
第21章
1
在耶和华你 神所赐你为业的地上、若遇见被杀的人倒在田野、不知道是谁杀的.
If one be found slain in the land which Jehovah thy God giveth thee to possess it, lying in the field, and it be not known who hath smitten him;
2
长老和审判官就要出去、从被杀的人那里量起、直量到四围的城邑.
then thy elders and thy judges shall come forth, and they shall measure unto the cities which are round about him that is slain:
3
看那城离被杀的人最近、那城的长老就要从牛群中取一只未曾耕地、未曾负轭的母牛犊、
and it shall be, that the city which is nearest unto the slain man, even the elders of that city shall take a heifer of the herd, which hath not been wrought with, and which hath not drawn in the yoke;
4
把母牛犊牵到流水未曾耕种的山谷去、在谷中打折母牛犊的颈项。
and the elders of that city shall bring down the heifer unto a valley with running water, which is neither plowed nor sown, and shall break the heifer`s neck there in the valley.
5
祭司利未的子孙要近前来、因为耶和华你的 神拣选了他们事奉他、奉耶和华的名祝福、所有争讼殴打的事、都要凭他们判断。
And the priests the sons of Levi shall come near; for them Jehovah thy God hath chosen to minister unto him, and to bless in the name of Jehovah; and according to their word shall every controversy and every stroke be.
6
那城的众长老、就是离被杀的人最近的、要在那山谷中、在所打折颈项的母牛犊以上洗手、
And all the elders of that city, who are nearest unto the slain man, shall wash their hands over the heifer whose neck was broken in the valley;
7
祷告〈原文作回答〉说、我们的手未曾流这人的血、我们的眼也未曾看见这事。
and they shall answer and say, Our hands have not shed this blood, neither have our eyes seen it.
8
耶和华阿、求你赦免你所救赎的以色列民、不要使流无辜血的罪归在你的百姓以色列中间.这样、流血的罪必得赦免。
Forgive, O Jehovah, thy people Israel, whom thou hast redeemed, and suffer not innocent blood [to remain] in the midst of thy people Israel. And the blood shall be forgiven them.
9
你行耶和华眼中看为正的事、就可以从你们中间除掉流无辜血的罪。
So shalt thou put away the innocent blood from the midst of thee, when thou shalt do that which is right in the eyes of Jehovah.
10
你出去与仇敌争战的时候、耶和华你的 神、将他们交在你手中、你就掳了他们去。
When thou goest forth to battle against thine enemies, and Jehovah thy God delivereth them into thy hands, and thou carriest them away captive,
11
若在被掳的人中见有美貌的女子、恋慕他要娶他为妻.
and seest among the captives a beautiful woman, and thou hast a desire unto her, and wouldest take her to thee to wife;
12
就可以领他到你家里去、他便要剃头发、修指甲、
then thou shalt bring her home to thy house; and she shall shave her head, and pare her nails;
13
脱去被掳时所穿的衣服、住在你家里哀哭父母一个整月、然后可以与他同房.你作他的丈夫、他作你的妻子。
and she shall put the raiment of her captivity from off her, and shall remain in thy house, and bewail her father and her mother a full month: and after that thou shalt go in unto her, and be her husband, and she shall be thy wife.
14
后来你若不喜悦他、就要由他随意出去、决不可为钱卖他、也不可当婢女待他、因为你玷污了他。
And it shall be, if thou have no delight in her, then thou shalt let her go whither she will; but thou shalt not sell her at all for money, thou shalt not deal with her as a slave, because thou hast humbled her.
15
人若有二妻、一为所爱、一为所恶、所爱的所恶的、都给他生了儿子、但长子是所恶之妻生的.
If a man have two wives, the one beloved, and the other hated, and they have borne him children, both the beloved and the hated; and if the first-born son be hers that was hated;
16
到了把产业分给儿子承受的时候、不可将所爱之妻生的儿子立为长子、在所恶之妻生的儿子以上、
then it shall be, in the day that he causeth his sons to inherit that which he hath, that he may not make the son of the beloved the first-born before the son of the hated, who is the first-born:
17
却要认所恶之妻生的儿子为长子、将产业多加一分给他、因这儿子是他力量强壮的时候生的、长子的名分本当归他。
but he shall acknowledge the first-born, the son of the hated, by giving him a double portion of all that he hath; for he is the beginning of his strength; the right of the first-born is his.
18
人若有顽梗悖逆的儿子、不听从父母的话、他们虽惩治他、他仍不听从。
If a man have a stubborn and rebellious son, that will not obey the voice of his father, or the voice of his mother, and, though they chasten him, will not hearken unto them;
19
父母就要抓住他、将他带到本地的城门、本城的长老那里.
then shall his father and his mother lay hold on him, and bring him out unto the elders of his city, and unto the gate of his place;
20
对长老说、我们这儿子顽梗悖逆、不听从我们的话、是贪食好酒的人。
and they shall say unto the elders of his city, This our son is stubborn and rebellious, he will not obey our voice; he is a glutton, and a drunkard.
21
本城的众人就要用石头将他打死.这样就把那恶从你们中间除掉.以色列众人都要听见害怕。
And all the men of his city shall stone him to death with stones: so shalt thou put away the evil from the midst of thee; and all Israel shall hear, and fear.
22
人若犯该死的罪、被治死了、你将他挂在木头上。
And if a man have committed a sin worthy of death, and he be put to death, and thou hang him on a tree;
23
他的尸首不可留在木头上过夜、必要当日将他葬埋、免得玷污了耶和华你 神所赐你为业之地.因为被挂的人是在 神面前受咒诅的。
his body shall not remain all night upon the tree, but thou shalt surely bury him the same day; for he that is hanged is accursed of God; that thou defile not thy land which Jehovah thy God giveth thee for an inheritance.
第22章
1
你若看见弟兄的牛、或羊、失迷了路、不可佯为不见、总要把他牵回来交给你的弟兄。
Thou shalt not see thy brother`s ox or his sheep go astray, and hide thyself from them: thou shalt surely bring them again unto thy brother.
2
你弟兄若离你远、或是你不认识他、就要牵到你家去、留在你那里、等你弟兄来寻找就还给他。
And if thy brother be not nigh unto thee, or if thou know him not, then thou shalt bring it home to thy house, and it shall be with thee until thy brother seek after it, and thou shalt restore it to him.
3
你的弟兄无论失落甚么、或是驴、或是衣服、你若遇见、都要这样行、不可佯为不见。
And so shalt thou do with his ass; and so shalt thou do with his garment; and so shalt thou do with every lost thing of thy brother`s, which he hath lost, and thou hast found: thou mayest not hide thyself.
4
你若看见弟兄的牛、或驴、跌倒在路上、不可佯为不见、总要帮助他拉起来。
Thou shalt not see thy brother`s ass or his ox fallen down by the way, and hide thyself from them: thou shalt surely help him to lift them up again.
5
妇女不可穿戴男子所穿戴的、男子也不可穿妇女的衣服、因为这样行都是耶和华你 神所憎恶的。
A woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a man, neither shall a man put on a woman`s garment; for whosoever doeth these things is an abomination unto Jehovah thy God.
6
你若路上遇见鸟窝、或在树上、或在地上、里头有雏、或有蛋、母鸟伏在雏上、或在蛋上、你不可连母带雏一并取去.
If a bird`s nest chance to be before thee in the way, in any tree or on the ground, with young ones or eggs, and the dam sitting upon the young, or upon the eggs, thou shalt not take the dam with the young:
7
总要放母、只可取雏.这样你就可以享福、日子得以长久。
thou shalt surely let the dam go, but the young thou mayest take unto thyself; that it may be well with thee, and that thou mayest prolong thy days.
8
你若建造房屋、要在房上的四围安栏杆、免得有人从房上掉下来、流血的罪就归于你家。
When thou buildest a new house, then thou shalt make a battlement for thy roof, that thou bring not blood upon thy house, if any man fall from thence.
9
不可把两样种子种在你的葡萄园里、免得你撒种所结的、和葡萄园的果子都要充公。
Thou shalt not sow thy vineyard with two kinds of seed, lest the whole fruit be forfeited, the seed which thou hast sown, and the increase of the vineyard.
10
不可并用牛驴耕地。
Thou shalt not plow with an ox and an ass together.
11
不可穿羊毛细麻两样搀杂料作的衣服。
Thou shalt not wear a mingled stuff, wool and linen together.
12
你要在所披的外衣上四围作䍁子。
Thou shalt make thee fringes upon the four borders of thy vesture, wherewith thou coverest thyself.
13
人若娶妻、与他同房之后恨恶他、
If any man take a wife, and go in unto her, and hate her,
14
信口说他、将丑名加在他身上、说、我娶了这女子与他同房、见他没有贞洁的凭据。
and lay shameful things to her charge, and bring up an evil name upon her, and say, I took this woman, and when I came nigh to her, I found not in her the tokens of virginity;
15
女子的父母就要把女子贞洁的凭据拿出来、带到本城门长老那里。
then shall the father of the damsel, and her mother, take and bring forth the tokens of the damsel`s virginity unto the elders of the city in the gate;
16
女子的父亲要对长老说、我将我的女儿给这人为妻、他恨恶他、
and the damsel`s father shall say unto the elders, I gave my daughter unto this man to wife, and he hateth her;
17
信口说他、说、我见你的女儿没有贞洁的凭据、其实这就是我女儿贞洁的凭据.父母就把那布铺在本城的长老面前。
and, lo, he hath laid shameful things [to her charge], saying, I found not in thy daughter the tokens of virginity; and yet these are the tokens of my daughter`s virginity. And they shall spread the garment before the elders of the city.
18
本城的长老要拿住那人惩治他.
And the elders of that city shall take the man and chastise him;
19
并要罚他一百舍客勒银子、给女子的父亲、因为他将丑名加在以色列的一个处女身上.女子仍作他的妻、终身不可休他。
and they shall fine him a hundred [shekels] of silver, and give them unto the father of the damsel, because he hath brought up an evil name upon a virgin of Israel: and she shall be his wife; he may not put her away all his days.
20
但这事若是真的、女子没有贞洁的凭据、
But if this thing be true, that the tokens of virginity were not found in the damsel;
21
就要将女子带到他父家的门口、本城的人要用石头将他打死、因为他在父家行了淫乱、在以色列中作了丑事.这样、就把那恶从你们中间除掉。
then they shall bring out the damsel to the door of her father`s house, and the men of her city shall stone her to death with stones, because she hath wrought folly in Israel, to play the harlot in her father`s house: so shalt thou put away the evil from the midst of thee.
22
若遇见人与有丈夫的妇人行淫、就要将奸夫、淫妇、一并治死.这样、就把那恶从以色列中除掉。
If a man be found lying with a woman married to a husband, then they shall both of them die, the man that lay with the woman, and the woman: so shalt thou put away the evil from Israel.
23
若有处女已经许配丈夫、有人在城里遇见他、与他行淫、
If there be a damsel that is a virgin betrothed unto a husband, and a man find her in the city, and lie with her;
24
你们就要把这二人带到本城门、用石头打死、女子是因为虽在城里却没有喊叫、男子是因为玷污别人的妻.这样、就把那恶从你们中间除掉。
then ye shall bring them both out unto the gate of that city, and ye shall stone them to death with stones; the damsel, because she cried not, being in the city; and the man, because he hath humbled his neighbor`s wife: so thou shalt put away the evil from the midst of thee.
25
若有男子在田野遇见已经许配人的女子、强与他行淫、只要将那男子治死。
But if the man find the damsel that is betrothed in the field, and the man force her, and lie with her; then the man only that lay with her shall die:
26
但不可办女子、他本没有该死的罪、这事就类乎人起来攻击邻舍、将他杀了一样.
but unto the damsel thou shalt do nothing; there is in the damsel no sin worthy of death: for as when a man riseth against his neighbor, and slayeth him, even so is this matter;
27
因为男子是在田野遇见那已经许配人的女子、女子喊叫并无人救他。
for he found her in the field, the betrothed damsel cried, and there was none to save her.
28
若有男子遇见没有许配人的处女、抓住他与他行淫、被人看见、
If a man find a damsel that is a virgin, that is not betrothed, and lay hold on her, and lie with her, and they be found;
29
这男子就要拿五十舍客勒银子、给女子的父亲、因他玷污了这女子、就要娶他为妻、终身不可休他。
then the man that lay with her shall give unto the damsel`s father fifty [shekels] of silver, and she shall be his wife, because he hath humbled her; he may not put her away all his days.
30
人不可娶继母为妻、不可掀开他父亲的衣襟。
A man shall not take his father`s wife, and shall not uncover his father`s skirt.
第23章
1
凡外肾受伤的、或被阉割的、不可入耶和华的会。
He that is wounded in the stones, or hath his privy member cut off, shall not enter into the assembly of Jehovah.
2
私生子不可入耶和华的会、他的子孙直到十代、也不可入耶和华的会。
A bastard shall not enter into the assembly of Jehovah; even to the tenth generation shall none of his enter into the assembly of Jehovah.
3
亚扪人、或是摩押人、不可入耶和华的会.他们的子孙虽过十代、也永不可入耶和华的会。
An Ammonite or a Moabite shall not enter into the assembly of Jehovah; even to the tenth generation shall none belonging to them enter into the assembly of Jehovah for ever:
4
因为你们出埃及的时候、他们没有拿食物和水、在路上迎接你们、又因他们雇了米所波大米的毘夺人比珥的儿子巴兰、来咒诅你们。
because they met you not with bread and with water in the way, when ye came forth out of Egypt, and because they hired against thee Balaam the son of Beor from Pethor of Mesopotamia, to curse thee.
5
然而耶和华你的 神不肯听从巴兰、却使那咒诅的言语变为祝福的话、因为耶和华你的 神爱你。
Nevertheless Jehovah thy God would not hearken unto Balaam; but Jehovah thy God turned the curse into a blessing unto thee, because Jehovah thy God loved thee.
6
你一生一世永不可求他们的平安、和他们的利益。
Thou shalt not seek their peace nor their prosperity all thy days for ever.
7
不可憎恶以东人、因为他是你的弟兄.不可憎恶埃及人、因为你在他的地上作过寄居的。
Thou shalt not abhor an Edomite; for he is thy brother: thou shalt not abhor an Egyptian, because thou wast a sojourner in his land.
8
他们第三代子孙可以入耶和华的会。
The children of the third generation that are born unto them shall enter into the assembly of Jehovah.
9
你出兵攻打仇敌、就要远避诸恶。
When thou goest forth in camp against thine enemies, then thou shalt keep thee from every evil thing.
10
你们中间若有人、夜间偶然梦遗不洁净、就要出到营外、不可入营。
If there be among you any man, that is not clean by reason of that which chanceth him by night, then shall he go abroad out of the camp, he shall not come within the camp:
11
到傍晚的时候、他要用水洗澡、及至日落了才可以入营。
but it shall be, when evening cometh on, he shall bathe himself in water; and when the sun is down, he shall come within the camp.
12
你在营外也该定出一个地方作为便所。
Thou shalt have a place also without the camp, whither thou shalt go forth abroad:
13
在你器械之中当豫备一把锹、你出营外便溺以后、用以铲土、转身掩盖。
and thou shalt have a paddle among thy weapons; and it shall be, when thou sittest down abroad, thou shalt dig therewith, and shalt turn back and cover that which cometh from thee:
14
因为耶和华你的 神常在你营中行走、要救护你、将仇敌交给你、所以你的营理当圣洁、免得他见你那里有污秽、就离开你。
for Jehovah thy God walketh in the midst of thy camp, to deliver thee, and to give up thine enemies before thee; therefore shall thy camp be holy, that he may not see an unclean thing in thee, and turn away from thee.
15
若有奴仆脱了主人的手、逃到你那里、你不可将他交付他的主人。
Thou shalt not deliver unto his master a servant that is escaped from his master unto thee:
16
他必在你那里与你同住、在你的城邑中、要由他选择一个所喜悦的地方居住.你不可欺负他。
he shall dwell with thee, in the midst of thee, in the place which he shall choose within one of thy gates, where it pleaseth him best: thou shalt not oppress him.
17
以色列的女子中不可有妓女、以色列的男子中不可有娈童。
There shall be no prostitute of the daughters of Israel, neither shall there be a sodomite of the sons of Israel.
18
娼妓所得的钱、或娈童〈原文作狗〉所得的价、你不可带入耶和华你 神的殿还愿.因为这两样都是耶和华你 神所憎恶的。
Thou shalt not bring the hire of a harlot, or the wages of a dog, into the house of Jehovah thy God for any vow: for even both these are an abomination unto Jehovah thy God.
19
你借给你弟兄的、或是钱财、或是粮食、无论甚么可生利的物、都不可取利。
Thou shalt not lend upon interest to thy brother; interest of money, interest of victuals, interest of anything that is lent upon interest:
20
借给外邦人可以取利、只是借给你弟兄不可取利.这样、耶和华你 神必在你所去得为业的地上、和你手里所办的一切事上、赐福与你。
unto a foreigner thou mayest lend upon interest; but unto thy brother thou shalt not lend upon interest, that Jehovah thy God may bless thee in all that thou puttest thy hand unto, in the land whither thou goest in to possess it.
21
你向耶和华你的 神许愿、偿还不可迟延、因为耶和华你的 神必定向你追讨、你不偿还就有罪。
When thou shalt vow a vow unto Jehovah thy God, thou shalt not be slack to pay it: for Jehovah thy God will surely require it of thee; and it would be sin in thee.
22
你若不许愿、倒无罪。
But if thou shalt forbear to vow, it shall be no sin in thee.
23
你嘴里所出的、就是你口中应许、甘心所献的、要照你向耶和华你 神所许的愿谨守遵行。
That which is gone out of thy lips thou shalt observe and do; according as thou hast vowed unto Jehovah thy God, a freewill-offering, which thou hast promised with thy mouth.
24
你进了邻舍的葡萄园、可以随意吃饱了葡萄、只是不可装在器皿中。
When thou comest into thy neighbor`s vineyard, then thou mayest eat of grapes thy fill at thine own pleasure; but thou shalt not put any in thy vessel.
25
你进了邻舍站着的禾稼、可以用手摘穗子、只是不可用镰刀割取禾稼。
When thou comest into thy neighbor`s standing grain, then thou mayest pluck the ears with thy hand; but thou shalt not move a sickle unto thy neighbor`s standing grain.
第24章
1
人若娶妻以后、见他有甚么不合理的事、不喜悦他、就可以写休书交在他手中、打发他离开夫家。
When a man taketh a wife, and marrieth her, then it shall be, if she find no favor in his eyes, because he hath found some unseemly thing in her, that he shall write her a bill of divorcement, and give it in her hand, and send her out of his house.
2
妇人离开夫家以后、可以去嫁别人。
And when she is departed out of his house, she may go and be another man`s [wife].
3
后夫若恨恶他、写休书交在他手中、打发他离开夫家、或是娶他为妻的后夫死了、
And if the latter husband hate her, and write her a bill of divorcement, and give it in her hand, and send her out of his house; or if the latter husband die, who took her to be his wife;
4
打发他去的前夫、不可在妇人玷污之后再娶他为妻、因为这是耶和华所憎恶的.不可使耶和华你 神所赐为业之地被玷污了。
her former husband, who sent her away, may not take her again to be his wife, after that she is defiled; for that is abomination before Jehovah: and thou shalt not cause the land to sin, which Jehovah thy God giveth thee for an inheritance.
5
新娶妻之人、不可从军出征、也不可托他办理甚么公事、可以在家清闲一年、使他所娶的妻快活。
When a man taketh a new wife, he shall not go out in the host, neither shall he be charged with any business: he shall be free at home one year, and shall cheer his wife whom he hath taken.
6
不可拿人的全盘磨石、或是上磨石作当头、因为这是拿人的命作当头。
No man shall take the mill or the upper millstone to pledge; for he taketh [a man`s] life to pledge.
7
若遇见人拐带以色列中的一个弟兄、当奴才待他、或是卖了他、那拐带人的、就必治死.这样、便将那恶从你们中间除掉。
If a man be found stealing any of his brethren of the children of Israel, and he deal with him as a slave, or sell him; then that thief shall die: so shalt thou put away the evil from the midst of thee.
8
在大痳疯的灾病上、你们要谨慎、照祭司利未人一切所指教你们的、留意遵行、我怎样吩咐他们、你们要怎样遵行。
Take heed in the plague of leprosy, that thou observe diligently, and do according to all that the priests the Levites shall teach you: as I commanded them, so ye shall observe to do.
9
当记念出埃及后、在路上耶和华你 神向米利暗所行的事。
Remember what Jehovah thy God did unto Miriam, by the way as ye came forth out of Egypt.
10
你借给邻舍不拘是甚么、不可进他家拿他的当头.
When thou dost lend thy neighbor any manner of loan, thou shalt not go into his house to fetch his pledge.
11
要站在外面、等那向你借贷的人把当头拿出来、交给你。
Thou shalt stand without, and the man to whom thou dost lend shall bring forth the pledge without unto thee.
12
他若是穷人、你不可留他的当头过夜。
And if he be a poor man, thou shalt not sleep with his pledge;
13
日落的时候、总要把当头还他、使他用那件衣服盖着睡觉、他就为你祝福.这在耶和华你 神面前就是你的义了。
thou shalt surely restore to him the pledge when the sun goeth down, that he may sleep in his garment, and bless thee: and it shall be righteousness unto thee before Jehovah thy God.
14
困苦穷乏的雇工、无论是你的弟兄、或是在你城里寄居的、你不可欺负他。
Thou shalt not oppress a hired servant that is poor and needy, whether he be of thy brethren, or of thy sojourners that are in thy land within thy gates:
15
要当日给他工价、不可等到日落、因为他穷苦、把心放在工价上、恐怕他因你求告耶和华、罪便归你了。
in his day thou shalt give him his hire, neither shall the sun go down upon it; for he is poor, and setteth his heart upon it: lest he cry against thee unto Jehovah, and it be sin unto thee.
16
不可因子杀父、也不可因父杀子.凡被杀的都为本身的罪。
The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, neither shall the children be put to death for the fathers: every man shall be put to death for his own sin.
17
你不可向寄居的和孤儿、屈枉正直、也不可拿寡妇的衣裳作当头。
Thou shalt not wrest the justice [due] to the sojourner, [or] to the fatherless, nor take the widow`s raiment to pledge;
18
要记念你在埃及作过奴仆、耶和华你的 神从那里将你救赎、所以我吩咐你这样行。
but thou shalt remember that thou wast a bondman in Egypt, and Jehovah thy God redeemed thee thence: therefore I command thee to do this thing.
19
你在田间收割庄稼、若忘下一捆、不可回去再取、要留给寄居的、与孤儿寡妇、这样、耶和华你 神必在你手里所办的一切事上、赐福与你。
When thou reapest thy harvest in thy field, and hast forgot a sheaf in the field, thou shalt not go again to fetch it: it shall be for the sojourner, for the fatherless, and for the widow; that Jehovah thy God may bless thee in all the work of thy hands.
20
你打橄榄树、枝上剩下的不可再打、要留给寄居的、与孤儿寡妇。
When thou beatest thine olive-tree, thou shalt not go over the boughs again: it shall be for the sojourner, for the fatherless, and for the widow.
21
你摘葡萄园的葡萄、所剩下的不可再摘、要留给寄居的、与孤儿寡妇。
When thou gatherest [the grapes of] thy vineyard, thou shalt not glean it after thee: it shall be for the sojourner, for the fatherless, and for the widow.
22
你也要记念你在埃及地作过奴仆、所以我吩咐你这样行。
And thou shalt remember that thou wast a bondman in the land of Egypt: therefore I command thee to do this thing.
第25章
1
人若有争讼、来听审判、审判官就要定义人有理、定恶人有罪。
If there be a controversy between men, and they come unto judgment, and [the judges] judge them; then they shall justify the righteous, and condemn the wicked;
2
恶人若该受责打、审判官就要叫他当面伏在地上、按着他的罪照数责打。
and it shall be, if the wicked man be worthy to be beaten, that the judge shall cause him to lie down, and to be beaten before his face, according to his wickedness, by number.
3
只可打他四十下、不可过数、若过数、便是轻贱你的弟兄了。
Forty stripes he may give him, he shall not exceed; lest, if he should exceed, and beat him above these with many stripes, then thy brother should seem vile unto thee.
4
牛在场上踹谷的时候、不可笼住他的嘴。
Thou shalt not muzzle the ox when he treadeth out [the grain].
5
弟兄同居、若死了一个没有儿子、死人的妻不可出嫁外人、他丈夫的兄弟当尽弟兄的本分娶他为妻、与他同房。
If brethren dwell together, and one of them die, and have no son, the wife of the dead shall not be married without unto a stranger: her husband`s brother shall go in unto her, and take her to him to wife, and perform the duty of a husband`s brother unto her.
6
妇人生的长子必归死兄的名下、免得他的名在以色列中涂抹了。
And it shall be, that the first-born that she beareth shall succeed in the name of his brother that is dead, that his name be not blotted out of Israel.
7
那人若不愿意娶他哥哥的妻、他哥哥的妻就要到城门长老那里说、我丈夫的兄弟不肯在以色列中兴起他哥哥的名字、不给我尽弟兄的本分。
And if the man like not to take his brother`s wife, then his brother`s wife shall go up to the gate unto the elders, and say, My husband`s brother refuseth to raise up unto his brother a name in Israel; he will not perform the duty of a husband`s brother unto me.
8
本城的长老就要召那人来问他、他若执意说、我不愿意娶他.
Then the elders of his city shall call him, and speak unto him: and if he stand, and say, I like not to take her;
9
他哥哥的妻就要当着长老到那人的跟前、脱了他的鞋、吐唾沫在他脸上、说、凡不为哥哥建立家室的、都要这样待他。
then shall his brother`s wife come unto him in the presence of the elders, and loose his shoe from off his foot, and spit in his face; and she shall answer and say, So shall it be done unto the man that doth not build up his brother`s house.
10
在以色列中、他的名必称为脱鞋之家。
And his name shall be called in Israel, The house of him that hath his shoe loosed.
11
若有二人争斗、这人的妻近前来、要救他丈夫脱离那打他丈夫之人的手、抓住那人的下体.
When men strive together one with another, and the wife of the one draweth near to deliver her husband out of the hand of him that smiteth him, and putteth forth her hand, and taketh him by the secrets;
12
就要砍断妇人的手、眼不可顾惜他。
then thou shalt cut off her hand, thine eye shall have no pity.
13
你囊中不可有一大一小、两样的法码。
Thou shalt not have in thy bag diverse weights, a great and a small.
14
你家里不可有一大一小、两样的升斗。
Thou shalt not have in thy house diverse measures, a great and a small.
15
当用对准公平的法码、公平的升斗、这样、在耶和华你 神所赐你的地上、你的日子就可以长久。
A perfect and just weight shalt thou have; a perfect and just measure shalt thou have: that thy days may be long in the land which Jehovah thy God giveth thee.
16
因为行非义之事的人、都是耶和华你 神所憎恶的。
For all that do such things, [even] all that do unrighteously, are an abomination unto Jehovah thy God.
17
你要记念你们出埃及的时候、亚玛力人在路上怎样待你。
Remember what Amalek did unto thee by the way as ye came forth out of Egypt;
18
他们在路上遇见你、趁你疲乏困倦、击杀你尽后边软弱的人、并不敬畏 神。
how he met thee by the way, and smote the hindmost of thee, all that were feeble behind thee, when thou wast faint and weary; and he feared not God.
19
所以耶和华你 神使你不被四围一切的仇敌扰乱、在耶和华你 神赐你为业的地上、得享平安、那时你要将亚玛力的名号、从天下涂抹了.不可忘记。
Therefore it shall be, when Jehovah thy God hath given thee rest from all thine enemies round about, in the land which Jehovah thy God giveth thee for an inheritance to possess it, that thou shalt blot out the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven; thou shalt not forget.
第26章
1
你进去得了耶和华你 神所赐你为业之地居住、
And it shall be, when thou art come in unto the land which Jehovah thy God giveth thee for an inheritance, and possessest it, and dwellest therein,
2
就要从耶和华你 神赐你的地上、将所收的各种初熟的土产、取些来、盛在筐子里、往耶和华你 神所选择要立为他名的居所去.
that thou shalt take of the first of all the fruit of the ground, which thou shalt bring in from thy land that Jehovah thy God giveth thee; and thou shalt put it in a basket, and shalt go unto the place which Jehovah thy God shall choose, to cause his name to dwell there.
3
见当时作祭司的、对他说、我今日向耶和华你 神、明认我已来到耶和华向我们列祖起誓应许赐给我们的地。
And thou shalt come unto the priest that shall be in those days, and say unto him, I profess this day unto Jehovah thy God, that I am come unto the land which Jehovah sware unto our fathers to give us.
4
祭司就从你手里取过筐子来、放在耶和华你 神的坛前。
And the priest shall take the basket out of thy hand, and set it down before the altar of Jehovah thy God.
5
你要在耶和华你 神面前说、我祖原是一个将亡的亚兰人、下到埃及寄居.他人口稀少、在那里却成了又大、又强、人数很多的国民。
And thou shalt answer and say before Jehovah thy God, A Syrian ready to perish was my father; and he went down into Egypt, and sojourned there, few in number; and he became there a nation, great, mighty, and populous.
6
埃及人恶待我们、苦害我们、将苦工加在我们身上.
And the Egyptians dealt ill with us, and afflicted us, and laid upon us hard bondage:
7
于是我们哀求耶和华我们列祖的 神、耶和华听见我们的声音、看见我们所受的困苦、劳碌、欺压、
and we cried unto Jehovah, the God of our fathers, and Jehovah heard our voice, and saw our affliction, and our toil, and our oppression;
8
他就用大能的手和伸出来的膀臂、并大可畏的事、与神迹、奇事、领我们出了埃及.
and Jehovah brought us forth out of Egypt with a mighty hand, and with an outstretched arm, and with great terribleness, and with signs, and with wonders;
9
将我们领进这地方、把这流奶与蜜之地赐给我们。
and he hath brought us into this place, and hath given us this land, a land flowing with milk and honey.
10
耶和华阿、现在我把你所赐给我地上初熟的土产奉了来.随后你要把筐子放在耶和华你 神面前、向耶和华你的 神下拜。
And now, behold, I have brought the first of the fruit of the ground, which thou, O Jehovah, hast given me. And thou shalt set it down before Jehovah thy God, and worship before Jehovah thy God:
11
你和利未人、并在你们.中间寄居的、要因耶和华你 神所赐你和你家的一切福分欢乐。
and thou shalt rejoice in all the good which Jehovah thy God hath given unto thee, and unto thy house, thou, and the Levite, and the sojourner that is in the midst of thee.
12
每逢三年、就是十分取一之年、你取完了一切土产的十分之一、要分给利未人、和寄居的、与孤儿寡妇、使他们在你城中可以吃得饱足。
When thou hast made an end of tithing all the tithe of thine increase in the third year, which is the year of tithing, then thou shalt give it unto the Levite, to the sojourner, to the fatherless, and to the widow, that they may eat within thy gates, and be filled.
13
你又要在耶和华你 神面前说、我已将圣物从我家里拿出来、给了利未人和寄居的、与孤儿寡妇、是照你所吩咐我的一切命令、你的命令我都没有违背、也没有忘记。
And thou shalt say before Jehovah thy God, I have put away the hallowed things out of my house, and also have given them unto the Levite, and unto the sojourner, to the fatherless, and to the widow, according to all thy commandment which thou hast commanded me: I have not transgressed any of thy commandments, neither have I forgotten them:
14
我守丧的时候、没有吃这圣物、不洁净的时候、也没有拿出来、又没有为死人送去、我听从了耶和华我 神的话、都照你所吩咐的行了。
I have not eaten thereof in my mourning, neither have I put away thereof, being unclean, nor given thereof for the dead: I have hearkened to the voice of Jehovah my God; I have done according to all that thou hast commanded me.
15
求你从天上你的圣所垂看、赐福给你的百姓以色列、与你所赐给我们的地、就是你向我们列祖起誓赐我们流奶与蜜之地。
Look down from thy holy habitation, from heaven, and bless thy people Israel, and the ground which thou hast given us, as thou swarest unto our fathers, a land flowing with milk and honey.
16
耶和华你的 神今日吩咐你行这些律例、典章、所以你要尽心、尽性、谨守遵行。
This day Jehovah thy God commandeth thee to do these statutes and ordinances: thou shalt therefore keep and do them with all thy heart, and with all thy soul.
17
你今日认耶和华为你的 神、应许遵行他的道、谨守他的律例、诫命、典章、听从他的话。
Thou hast avouched Jehovah this day to be thy God, and that thou wouldest walk in his ways, and keep his statutes, and his commandments, and his ordinances, and hearken unto his voice:
18
耶和华今日照他所应许你的、也认你为他的子民、使你谨守他的一切诫命、
and Jehovah hath avouched thee this day to be a people for his own possession, as he hath promised thee, and that thou shouldest keep all his commandments;
19
又使你得称赞、美名、尊荣、超乎他所造的万民之上、并照他所应许的、使你归耶和华你 神为圣洁的民。
and to make thee high above all nations that he hath made, in praise, and in name, and in honor; and that thou mayest be a holy people unto Jehovah thy God, as he hath spoken.
第27章
1
摩西和以色列的众长老吩咐百姓说、你们要遵守我今日所吩咐的一切诫命。
And Moses and the elders of Israel commanded the people, saying, Keep all the commandment which I command you this day.
2
你们过约但河、到了耶和华你 神所赐给你的地、当天要立起几块大石头、墁上石灰.
And it shall be on the day when ye shall pass over the Jordan unto the land which Jehovah thy God giveth thee, that thou shalt set thee up great stones, and plaster them with plaster:
3
把这律法的一切话写在石头上、你过了河、可以进入耶和华你 神所赐你流奶与蜜之地、正如耶和华你列祖之 神所应许你的。
and thou shalt write upon them all the words of this law, when thou art passed over; that thou mayest go in unto the land which Jehovah thy God giveth thee, a land flowing with milk and honey, as Jehovah, the God of thy fathers, hath promised thee.
4
你们过了约但河、就要在以巴路山上照我今日所吩咐的、将这些石头立起来、墁上石灰。
And it shall be, when ye are passed over the Jordan, that ye shall set up these stones, which I command you this day, in mount Ebal, and thou shalt plaster them with plaster.
5
在那里要为耶和华你的 神筑一座石坛、在石头上不可动铁器、
And there shalt thou build an altar unto Jehovah thy God, an altar of stones: thou shalt lift up no iron [tool] upon them.
6
要用没有凿过的石头筑耶和华你 神的坛、在坛上要将燔祭献给耶和华你的 神。
Thou shalt build the altar of Jehovah thy God of unhewn stones; and thou shalt offer burnt-offerings thereon unto Jehovah thy God:
7
又要献平安祭、且在那里吃、在耶和华你的 神面前欢乐。
and thou shalt sacrifice peace-offerings, and shalt eat there; and thou shalt rejoice before Jehovah thy God.
8
你要将这律法的一切话明明的写在石头上。
And thou shalt write upon the stones all the words of this law very plainly.
9

And Moses and the priests the Levites spake unto all Israel, saying, Keep silence, and hearken, O Israel: this day thou art become the people of Jehovah thy God.
10
所以要听从耶和华你 神的话、遵行他的诫命、律例、就是我今日所吩咐你的。
Thou shalt therefore obey the voice of Jehovah thy God, and do his commandments and his statutes, which I command thee this day.
11
当日摩西嘱咐百姓说、
And Moses charged the people the same day, saying,
12
你们过了约但河、西缅、利未、犹大、以萨迦、约瑟、便雅悯、六个支派的人、都要站在基利心山上为百姓祝福。
These shall stand upon mount Gerizim to bless the people, when ye are passed over the Jordan: Simeon, and Levi, and Judah, and Issachar, and Joseph, and Benjamin.
13
流便、迦得、亚设、西布伦、但、拿弗他利.六个支派的人、都要站在以巴路山上宣布咒诅。
And these shall stand upon mount Ebal for the curse: Reuben, Gad, and Asher, and Zebulun, Dan, and Naphtali.
14
利未人要向以色列众人高声说、
And the Levites shall answer, and say unto all the men of Israel with a loud voice,
15
有人制造耶和华所憎恶的偶像、或雕刻、或铸造、就是工匠手所作的、在暗中设立、那人必受咒诅.百姓都要答应说、阿们。

第28章
1
你若留意听从耶和华你 神的话、谨守遵行他的一切诫命、就是我今日所吩咐你的、他必使你超乎天下万民之上。
And it shall come to pass, if thou shalt hearken diligently unto the voice of Jehovah thy God, to observe to do all his commandments which I command thee this day, that Jehovah thy God will set thee on high above all the nations of the earth:
2
你若听从耶和华你 神的话、这以下的福必追随你、临到你身上。
and all these blessings shall come upon thee, and overtake thee, if thou shalt hearken unto the voice of Jehovah thy God.
3
你在城里必蒙福、在田间也必蒙福。
Blessed shalt thou be in the city, and blessed shalt thou be in the field.
4
你身所生的、地所产的、牲畜所下的、以及牛犊、羊羔、都必蒙福。
Blessed shall be the fruit of thy body, and the fruit of thy ground, and the fruit of thy beasts, the increase of thy cattle, and the young of thy flock.
5
你的筐子和你的抟面盆、都必蒙福。
Blessed shall be thy basket and thy kneading-trough.
6
你出也蒙福、入也蒙福。
Blessed shalt thou be when thou comest in, and blessed shalt thou be when thou goest out.
7
仇敌起来攻击你、耶和华必使他们在你面前被你杀败.他们从一条路来攻击你、必从七条路逃跑。
Jehovah will cause thine enemies that rise up against thee to be smitten before thee: they shall come out against thee one way, and shall flee before thee seven ways.
8
在你仓房里、并你手所办的一切事上、耶和华所命的福必临到你.耶和华你 神、也要在所给你的地上赐福与你。
Jehovah will command the blessing upon thee in thy barns, and in all that thou puttest thy hand unto; and he will bless thee in the land which Jehovah thy God giveth thee.
9
你若谨守耶和华你 神的诫命、遵行他的道、他必照着向你所起的誓、立你作为自己的圣民。
Jehovah will establish thee for a holy people unto himself, as he hath sworn unto thee; if thou shalt keep the commandments of Jehovah thy God, and walk in his ways.
10
天下万民见你归在耶和华的名下、就要惧怕你。
And all the peoples of the earth shall see that thou art called by the name of Jehovah; and they shall be afraid of thee.
11
你在耶和华向你列祖起誓应许赐你的地上、他必使你身所生的、牲畜所下的、地所产的、都绰绰有馀。
And Jehovah will make thee plenteous for good, in the fruit of thy body, and in the fruit of thy cattle, and in the fruit of thy ground, in the land which Jehovah sware unto thy fathers to give thee.
12
耶和华必为你开天上的府库、按时降雨在你的地上.在你手里所办的一切事上赐福与你.你必借给许多国民、却不至向他们借贷。
Jehovah will open unto thee his good treasure the heavens, to give the rain of thy land in its season, and to bless all the work of thy hand: and thou shalt lend unto many nations, and thou shalt not borrow.
13
你若听从耶和华你 神的诫命、就是我今日所吩咐你的、谨守遵行、不偏左右、也不随从事奉别神、耶和华就必使你作首不作尾、但居上不居下。
And Jehovah will make thee the head, and not the tail; and thou shalt be above only, and thou shalt not be beneath; if thou shalt hearken unto the commandments of Jehovah thy God, which I command thee this day, to observe and to do [them],
14
你若听从耶和华你 神的诫命、就是我今日所吩咐你的、谨守遵行、不偏左右、也不随从事奉别神、耶和华就必使你作首不作尾、但居上不居下。
and shalt not turn aside from any of the words which I command you this day, to the right hand, or to the left, to go after other gods to serve them.
15
你若不听从耶和华你 神的话、不谨守遵行他的一切诫命律例、就是我今日所吩咐你的、这以下的咒诅都必追随你、临到你身上。
But it shall come to pass, if thou wilt not hearken unto the voice of Jehovah thy God, to observe to do all his commandments and his statutes which I command thee this day, that all these curses shall come upon thee, and overtake thee.
16

19
你出也受咒诅、入也受咒诅。
Cursed shalt thou be when thou comest in, and cursed shalt thou be when thou goest out.
20
耶和华因你行恶离弃他、必在你手里所办的一切事上、使咒诅、扰乱、责罚临到你、直到你被毁灭、速速的灭亡。
Jehovah will send upon thee cursing, discomfiture, and rebuke, in all that thou puttest thy hand unto to do, until thou be destroyed, and until thou perish quickly; because of the evil of thy doings, whereby thou hast forsaken me.
21
耶和华必使瘟疫贴在你身上、直到他将你从所进去得为业的地上灭绝。
Jehovah will make the pestilence cleave unto thee, until he have consumed thee from off the land, whither thou goest in to possess it.
22
耶和华要用痨病、热病、火症、疟疾、刀剑、旱风、〈或作干旱〉霉烂攻击你.这都要追赶你直到你灭亡。
Jehovah will smite thee with consumption, and with fever, and with inflammation, and with fiery heat, and with the sword, and with blasting, and with mildew; and they shall pursue thee until thou perish.
23
你头上的天、要变为铜、脚下的地、要变为铁。
And thy heaven that is over thy head shall be brass, and the earth that is under thee shall be iron.
24
耶和华要使那降在你地上的雨、变为尘沙、从天临在你身上、直到你灭亡。
Jehovah will make the rain of thy land powder and dust: from heaven shall it come down upon thee, until thou be destroyed.
25
耶和华必使你败在仇敌面前、你从一条路去攻击他们、必从七条路逃跑.你必在天下万国中抛来抛去。
Jehovah will cause thee to be smitten before thine enemies; thou shalt go out one way against them, and shalt flee seven ways before them: and thou shalt be tossed to and from among all the kingdoms of the earth.
26
你的尸首必给空中的飞鸟、和地上的走兽作食物、并无人哄赶。
And thy dead body shall be food unto all birds of the heavens, and unto the beasts of the earth; and there shall be none to frighten them away.
27
耶和华必用埃及人的疮、并痔疮、牛皮癣、与疥、攻击你、使你不能医治。
Jehovah will smite thee with the boil of Egypt, and with the emerods, and with the scurvy, and with the itch, whereof thou canst not be healed.
28
耶和华必用癫狂、眼瞎、心惊攻击你。
Jehovah will smite thee with madness, and with blindness, and with astonishment of heart;
29
你必在午间摸索、好像瞎子在暗中摸索一样.你所行的必不亨通、时常遭遇欺压、抢夺、无人搭救。
and thou shalt grope at noonday, as the blind gropeth in darkness, and thou shalt not prosper in thy ways: and thou shalt be only oppressed and robbed alway, and there shall be none to save thee.
30
你聘定了妻、别人必与他同房.你建造房屋、不得住在其内、你栽种葡萄园、也不得用其中的果子。
Thou shalt betroth a wife, and another man shall lie with her: thou shalt build a house, and thou shalt not dwell therein: thou shalt plant a vineyard, and shalt not use the fruit thereof.
31
你的牛在你眼前宰了、你必不得吃他的肉、你的驴在你眼前被抢夺、不得归还.你的羊归了仇敌、无人搭救。
Thine ox shall be slain before thine eyes, and thou shalt not eat thereof: thine ass shall be violently taken away from before thy face, and shall not be restored to thee: thy sheep shall be given unto thine enemies, and thou shalt have none to save thee.
32
你的儿女必归与别国的民、你的眼目终日切望、甚至失明、你手中无力拯救。
Thy sons and thy daughters shall be given unto another people; and thine eyes shall look, and fail with longing for them all the day: and there shall be nought in the power of thy hand.
33
你的土产、和你劳碌得来的、必被你所不认识的国民吃尽.你时常被欺负、受压制.
The fruit of thy ground, and all thy labors, shall a nation which thou knowest not eat up; and thou shalt be only oppressed and crushed alway;
34
甚至你因眼中所看见的、必致疯狂。
so that thou shalt be mad for the sight of thine eyes which thou shalt see.
35
耶和华必攻击你、使你膝上、腿上、从脚掌到头顶、长毒疮无法医治。
Jehovah will smite thee in the knees, and in the legs, with a sore boil, whereof thou canst not be healed, from the sole of thy foot unto the crown of thy head.
36
耶和华必将你和你所立的王、领到你和你列祖素不认识的国去、在那里你必事奉木头石头的神。
Jehovah will bring thee, and thy king whom thou shalt set over thee, unto a nation that thou hast not known, thou nor thy fathers; and there shalt thou serve other gods, wood and stone.
37
你在耶和华领你到的各国中、要令人惊骇、笑谈、讥诮。
And thou shalt become an astonishment, a proverb, and a byword, among all the peoples whither Jehovah shall lead thee away.
38
你带到田间的种子虽多、收进来的却少、因为被蝗虫吃了。
Thou shalt carry much seed out into the field, and shalt gather little in; for the locust shall consume it.
39
你栽种修理葡萄园、却不得收葡萄、也不得喝葡萄酒、因为被虫子吃了。
Thou shalt plant vineyards and dress them, but thou shalt neither drink of the wine, nor gather [the grapes]; for the worm shall eat them.
40
你全境有橄榄树、却不得其油抹身、因为树上的橄榄不熟自落了。
Thou shalt have olive-trees throughout all thy borders, but thou shalt not anoint thyself with the oil; for thine olive shall cast [its fruit].
41
你生儿养女、却不算是你的、因为必被掳去。
Thou shalt beget sons and daughters, but they shall not be thine; for they shall go into captivity.
42
你所有的树木、和你地里的出产、必被蝗虫所吃。
All thy trees and the fruit of thy ground shall the locust possess.
43
在你中间寄居的、必渐渐上升、比你高而又高、你必渐渐下降、低而又低。
The sojourner that is in the midst of thee shall mount up above thee higher and higher; and thou shalt come down lower and lower.
44
他必借给你、你却不能借给他、他必作首、你必作尾。
He shall lend to thee, and thou shalt not lend to him: he shall be the head, and thou shalt be the tail.
45
这一切咒诅必追随你、赶上你、直到你灭亡、因为你不听从耶和华你 神的话、不遵守他所吩咐的诫命律例。
And all these curses shall come upon thee, and shall pursue thee, and overtake thee, till thou be destroyed; because thou hearkenedst not unto the voice of Jehovah thy God, to keep his commandments and his statutes which he commanded thee:
46
这些咒诅、必在你和你后裔的身上成为异迹、奇事、直到永远。
and they shall be upon thee for a sign and for a wonder, and upon thy seed for ever.
47
因为你富有的时候、不欢心乐意的事奉耶和华你的 神、
Because thou servedst not Jehovah thy God with joyfulness, and with gladness of heart, by reason of the abundance of all things;
48
所以你必在饥饿、干渴、赤露、缺乏之中、事奉耶和华所打发来攻击你的仇敌.他必把铁轭加在你的颈项上、直到将你灭绝。
therefore shalt thou serve thine enemies that Jehovah shall send against thee, in hunger, and in thirst, and in nakedness, and in want of all things: and he shall put a yoke of iron upon thy neck, until he have destroyed thee.
49
耶和华要从远方地极带一国的民、如鹰飞来攻击你.这民的言语你不懂得。
Jehovah will bring a nation against thee from far, from the end of the earth, as the eagle flieth; a nation whose tongue thou shalt not understand;
50
这民的面貌凶恶、不顾恤年老的、也不恩待年少的。
a nation of fierce countenance, that shall not regard the person of the old, nor show favor to the young,
51
他们必吃你牲畜所下的、和你地土所产的、直到你灭亡.你的五谷、新酒、和油、以及牛犊、羊羔、都不给你留下、直到将你灭绝。
and shall eat the fruit of thy cattle, and the fruit of thy ground, until thou be destroyed; that also shall not leave thee grain, new wine, or oil, the increase of thy cattle, or the young of thy flock, until they have caused thee to perish.
52
他们必将你困在你各城里、直到你所倚靠高大坚固的城墙、都被攻塌.他们必将你困在耶和华你 神所赐你遍地的各城里。
And they shall besiege thee in all thy gates, until thy high and fortified walls come down, wherein thou trustedst, throughout all thy land; and they shall besiege thee in all thy gates throughout all thy land, which Jehovah thy God hath given thee.
53
你在仇敌围困窘迫之中、必吃你本身所生的、就是耶和华你 神所赐给你的儿女之肉。
And thou shalt eat the fruit of thine own body, the flesh of thy sons and of thy daughters, whom Jehovah thy God hath given thee, in the siege and in the distress wherewith thine enemies shall distress thee.
54
你们中间柔弱娇嫩的人、必恶眼看他弟兄、和他怀中的妻、并他馀剩的儿女.
The man that is tender among you, and very delicate, his eye shall be evil toward his brother, and toward the wife of his bosom, and toward the remnant of his children whom he hath remaining;
55
甚至在你受仇敌围困窘迫的城中、他要吃儿女的肉、不肯分一点给他的亲人、因为他一无所剩。
so that he will not give to any of them of the flesh of his children whom he shall eat, because he hath nothing left him, in the siege and in the distress wherewith thine enemy shall distress thee in all thy gates.
56
你们中间柔弱娇嫩的妇人、是因娇嫩柔弱不肯把脚踏地的、必恶眼看他怀中的丈夫和他的儿女。
The tender and delicate woman among you, who would not adventure to set the sole of her foot upon the ground for delicateness and tenderness, her eye shall be evil toward the husband of her bosom, and toward her son, and toward her daughter,
57
他两腿中间出来的婴孩、与他所要生的儿女、他因缺乏一切、就要在你受仇敌围困窘迫的城中、将他们暗暗的吃了。
and toward her young one that cometh out from between her feet, and toward her children whom she shall bear; for she shall eat them for want of all things secretly, in the siege and in the distress wherewith thine enemy shall distress thee in thy gates.
58
这书上所写律法的一切话、是叫你敬畏耶和华你 神可荣可畏的名.你若不谨守遵行、耶和华就必将奇灾、就是至大至长的灾、至重至久的病、加在你和你后裔的身上.
If thou wilt not observe to do all the words of this law that are written in this book, that thou mayest fear this glorious and fearful name, JEHOVAH THY GOD;
59
这书上所写律法的一切话、是叫你敬畏耶和华你 神可荣可畏的名.你若不谨守遵行、耶和华就必将奇灾、就是至大至长的灾、至重至久的病、加在你和你后裔的身上.
then Jehovah will make thy plagues wonderful, and the plagues of thy seed, even great plagues, and of long continuance, and sore sicknesses, and of long continuance.
60
也必使你所惧怕埃及人的病、都临到你、贴在你身上.
And he will bring upon thee again all the diseases of Egypt, which thou wast afraid of; and they shall cleave unto thee.
61
又必将没有写在这律法书上的各样疾病、灾殃、降在你身上、直到你灭亡。
Also every sickness, and every plague, which is not written in the book of this law, them will Jehovah bring upon thee, until thou be destroyed.
62
你们先前虽然像天上的星那样多、却因不听从耶和华你 神的话、所剩的人数就稀少了。
And ye shall be left few in number, whereas ye were as the stars of heaven for multitude; because thou didst not hearken unto the voice of Jehovah thy God.
63
先前耶和华怎样喜悦善待你们、使你们众多、也要照样喜悦毁灭你们、使你们灭亡.并且你们从所要进去得的地上、必被拔除。
And it shall come to pass, that, as Jehovah rejoiced over you to do you good, and to multiply you, so Jehovah will rejoice over you to cause you to perish, and to destroy you; and ye shall be plucked from off the land whither thou goest in to possess it.
64
耶和华必使你们分散在万民中、从地这边到地那边、你必在那里事奉你和你列祖素不认识木头石头的神。
And Jehovah will scatter thee among all peoples, from the one end of the earth even unto the other end of the earth; and there thou shalt serve other gods, which thou hast not known, thou nor thy fathers, even wood and stone.
65
在那些国中、你必不得安逸、也不得落脚之地、耶和华却使你在那里心中跳动、眼目失明、精神消耗。
And among these nations shalt thou find no ease, and there shall be no rest for the sole of thy foot: but Jehovah will give thee there a trembling heart, and failing of eyes, and pining of soul;
66
你的性命必悬悬无定、你昼夜恐惧、自料性命难保。
and thy life shall hang in doubt before thee; and thou shalt fear night and day, and shalt have no assurance of thy life.
67
你因心里所恐惧的、眼中所看见的、早晨必说、巴不得到晚上才好、晚上必说、巴不得到早晨才好。
In the morning thou shalt say, Would it were even! and at even thou shalt say, Would it were morning! for the fear of thy heart which thou shalt fear, and for the sight of thine eyes which thou shalt see.
68
耶和华必使你坐船回埃及去、走我曾告诉你不得再见的路、在那里你必卖己身与仇敌作奴婢、却无人买。
And Jehovah will bring thee into Egypt again with ships, by the way whereof I said unto thee, Thou shalt see it no more again: and there ye shall sell yourselves unto your enemies for bondmen and for bondwomen, and no man shall buy you.
第29章
1
这是耶和华在摩押地、吩咐摩西与以色列人立约的话、是在他和他们于何烈山所立的约之外。
These are the words of the covenant which Jehovah commanded Moses to make with the children of Israel in the land of Moab, besides the covenant which he made with them in Horeb.
2
摩西召了以色列众人来、对他们说、耶和华在埃及地、在你们眼前向法老和他众臣仆、并他全地所行的一切事、你们都看见了.
And Moses called unto all Israel, and said unto them, Ye have seen all that Jehovah did before your eyes in the land of Egypt unto Pharaoh, and unto all his servants, and unto all his land;
3
就是你亲眼看见的大试验、和神迹、并那些大奇事.
the great trials which thine eyes saw, the signs, and those great wonders:
4
但耶和华到今日没有使你们心能明白、眼能看见、耳能听见。
but Jehovah hath not given you a heart to know, and eyes to see, and ears to hear, unto this day.
5
我领你们在旷野四十年、你们身上的衣服并没有穿破、脚上的鞋也没有穿坏。
And I have led you forty years in the wilderness: your clothes are not waxed old upon you, and thy shoe is not waxed old upon thy foot.
6
你们没有吃饼、也没有喝清酒、浓酒、这要使你们知道耶和华是你们的 神。
Ye have not eaten bread, neither have ye drunk wine or strong drink; that ye may know that I am Jehovah your God.
7
你们来到这地方、希实本王西宏、巴珊王噩、都出来与我们交战、我们就击杀了他们、
And when ye came unto this place, Sihon the king of Heshbon, and Og the king of Bashan, came out against us unto battle, and we smote them:
8
取了他们的地给流便支派、迦得支派、和玛拿西半支派为业。
and we took their land, and gave it for an inheritance unto the Reubenites, and to the Gadites, and to the half-tribe of the Manassites.
9
所以你们要谨守遵行这约的话、好叫你们在一切所行的事上亨通。
Keep therefore the words of this covenant, and do them, that ye may prosper in all that ye do.
10
今日你们的首领、族长、〈原文作支派〉长老、官长、以色列的男丁、你们的妻子、儿女、和营中寄居的、以及为你们劈柴挑水的人、都站在耶和华你们的 神面前.
Ye stand this day all of you before Jehovah your God; your heads, your tribes, your elders, and your officers, even all the men of Israel,
11
今日你们的首领、族长、〈原文作支派〉长老、官长、以色列的男丁、你们的妻子、儿女、和营中寄居的、以及为你们劈柴挑水的人、都站在耶和华你们的 神面前.
your little ones, your wives, and thy sojourner that is in the midst of thy camps, from the hewer of thy wood unto the drawer of thy water;
12
为要你顺从耶和华你 神今日与你所立的约、向你所起的誓。
that thou mayest enter into the covenant of Jehovah thy God, and into his oath, which Jehovah thy God maketh with thee this day;
13
这样、他要照他向你所应许的话、又向你列祖亚伯拉罕、以撒、雅各、所起的誓、今日立你作他的子民、他作你的 神。
that he may establish thee this day unto himself for a people, and that he may be unto thee a God, as he spake unto thee, and as he sware unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.
14
我不但与你们立这约、起这誓。
Neither with you only do I make this covenant and this oath,
15
凡与我们一同站在耶和华我们 神面前的、并今日不在我们这里的人、我也与他们立这约、起这誓。
but with him that standeth here with us this day before Jehovah our God, and also with him that is not here with us this day
16
(我们曾住过埃及地、也从列国经过、这是你们知道的。
(for ye know how we dwelt in the land of Egypt, and how we came through the midst of the nations through which ye passed;
17
你们也看见他们中间可憎之物、并他们木、石、金、银的偶像。)
and ye have seen their abominations, and their idols, wood and stone, silver and gold, which were among them);
18
惟恐你们中间、或男、或女、或族长、或支派长、今日心里偏离耶和华我们的 神、去事奉那些国的神.又怕你们中间有恶根生出苦菜和茵蔯来.
lest there should be among you man, or woman, or family, or tribe, whose heart turneth away this day from Jehovah our God, to go to serve the gods of those nations; lest there should be among you a root that beareth gall and wormwood;
19
听见这咒诅的话、心里仍是自夸、说、我虽然行事心里顽梗、连累众人、却还是平安。
and it come to pass, when he heareth the words of this curse, that he bless himself in his heart, saying, I shall have peace, though I walk in the stubbornness of my heart, to destroy the moist with the dry.
20
耶和华必不饶恕他、耶和华的怒气、与愤恨、要向他发作、如烟冒出、将这书上所写的一切咒诅、都加在他身上、耶和华又要从天下涂抹他的名.
Jehovah will not pardon him, but then the anger of Jehovah and his jealousy will smoke against that man, and all the curse that is written in this book shall lie upon him, and Jehovah will blot out his name from under heaven.
21
也必照着写在律法书上约中的一切咒诅、将他从以色列众支派中分别出来、使他受祸。
And Jehovah will set him apart unto evil out of all the tribes of Israel, according to all the curses of the covenant that is written in this book of the law.
22
你们的后代、就是以后兴起来的子孙、和远方来的外人、看见这地的灾殃、并耶和华所降与这地的疾病、
And the generation to come, your children that shall rise up after you, and the foreigner that shall come from a far land, shall say, when they see the plagues of that land, and the sicknesses wherewith Jehovah hath made it sick;
23
又看见遍地有硫磺、有盐卤、有火迹、没有耕种、没有出产、连草都不生长、好像耶和华在忿怒中所倾覆的所多玛、蛾摩拉、押玛、洗扁一样.
[and that] the whole land thereof is brimstone, and salt, [and] a burning, [that] it is not sown, nor beareth, nor any grass groweth therein, like the overthrow of Sodom and Gomorrah, Admah and Zeboiim, which Jehovah overthrew in his anger, and in his wrath:
24
所看见的人、连万国人、都必问说、耶和华为何向此地这样行呢.这样大发烈怒是甚么意思呢。
even all the nations shall say, Wherefore hath Jehovah done thus unto this land? what meaneth the heat of this great anger?
25
人必回答说、是因这地的人离弃了耶和华他们列祖的 神、领他们出埃及地的时候与他们所立的约、
Then men shall say, Because they forsook the covenant of Jehovah, the God of their fathers, which he made with them when he brought them forth out of the land of Egypt,
26
去事奉敬拜素不认识的别神、是耶和华所未曾给他们安排的。
and went and served other gods, and worshipped them, gods that they knew not, and that he had not given unto them:
27
所以耶和华的怒气向这地发作、将这书上所写的一切咒诅、都降在这地上。
therefore the anger of Jehovah was kindled against this land, to bring upon it all the curse that is written in this book;
28
耶和华在怒气、忿怒、大恼恨中、将他们从本地拔出来、扔在别的地上、像今日一样。
and Jehovah rooted them out of their land in anger, and in wrath, and in great indignation, and cast them into another land, as at this day.
29
隐秘的事、是属耶和华我们 神的、惟有明显的事、是永远属我们和我们子孙的、好叫我们遵行这律法上的一切话。
The secret things belong unto Jehovah our God; but the things that are revealed belong unto us and to our children for ever, that we may do all the words of this law.
第30章
1
我所陈明在你面前的这一切咒诅、都临到你身上、你在耶和华你 神追赶你到的万国中、必心里追念祝福的话。
And it shall come to pass, when all these things are come upon thee, the blessing and the curse, which I have set before thee, and thou shalt call them to mind among all the nations, whither Jehovah thy God hath driven thee,
2
你和你的子孙、若尽心尽性归向耶和华你的 神、照着我今日一切所吩咐的听从他的话、
and shalt return unto Jehovah thy God, and shalt obey his voice according to all that I command thee this day, thou and thy children, with all thy heart, and with all thy soul;
3
那时、耶和华你的 神必怜恤你、救回你这被掳的子民、耶和华你的 神要回转过来、从分散你到的万民中、将你招聚回来。
that then Jehovah thy God will turn thy captivity, and have compassion upon thee, and will return and gather thee from all the peoples, whither Jehovah thy God hath scattered thee.
4
你被赶散的人、就是在天涯的、耶和华你的 神也必从那里将你招聚回来。
If [any of] thine outcasts be in the uttermost parts of heaven, from thence will Jehovah thy God gather thee, and from thence will he fetch thee:
5
耶和华你的 神必领你进入你列祖所得的地、使你可以得着.又必善待你、使你的人数比你列祖众多。
and Jehovah thy God will bring thee into the land which thy fathers possessed, and thou shalt possess it; and he will do thee good, and multiply thee above thy fathers.
6
耶和华你 神必将你心里、和你后裔心里的污秽除掉、好叫你尽心尽性爱耶和华你的 神、使你可以存活。
And Jehovah thy God will circumcise thy heart, and the heart of thy seed, to love Jehovah thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, that thou mayest live.
7
耶和华你的 神必将这一切咒诅加在你仇敌、和恨恶你、逼迫你的人身上。
And Jehovah thy God will put all these curses upon thine enemies, and on them that hate thee, that persecuted thee.
8
你必归回听从耶和华的话、遵行他的一切诫命、就是我今日所吩咐你的。
And thou shalt return and obey the voice of Jehovah, and do all his commandments which I command thee this day.
9
你若听从耶和华你 神的话、谨守这律法书上所写的诫命、律例、又尽心尽性归向耶和华你的 神、他必使你手里所办的一切事、并你身所生的、牲畜所下的、地土所产的、都绰绰有馀.因为耶和华必再喜悦你、降福与你、像从前喜悦你列祖一样。
And Jehovah thy God will make thee plenteous in all the work of thy hand, in the fruit of thy body, and in the fruit of thy cattle, and in the fruit of thy ground, for good: for Jehovah will again rejoice over thee for good, as he rejoiced over thy fathers;
10
你若听从耶和华你 神的话、谨守这律法书上所写的诫命、律例、又尽心尽性归向耶和华你的 神、他必使你手里所办的一切事、并你身所生的、牲畜所下的、地土所产的、都绰绰有馀.因为耶和华必再喜悦你、降福与你、像从前喜悦你列祖一样。
if thou shalt obey the voice of Jehovah thy God, to keep his commandments and his statutes which are written in this book of the law; if thou turn unto Jehovah thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul.
11
我今日所吩咐你的诫命、不是你难行的、也不是离你远的。
For this commandment which I command thee this day, it is not too hard for thee, neither is it far off.
12
不是在天上、使你说、谁替我们上天取下来、使我们听见可以遵行呢.
It is not in heaven, that thou shouldest say, Who shall go up for us to heaven, and bring it unto us, and make us to hear it, that we may do it?
13
也不是在海外、使你说、谁替我们过海取了来、使我们听见可以遵行呢。
Neither is it beyond the sea, that thou shouldest say, Who shall go over the sea for us, and bring it unto us, and make us to hear it, that we may do it?
14
这话却离你甚近、就在你口中、在你心里、使你可以遵行。
But the word is very nigh unto thee, in thy mouth, and in thy heart, that thou mayest do it.
15
看哪、我今日将生与福、死与祸、陈明在你面前。
See, I have set before thee this day life and good, and death and evil;
16
吩咐你爱耶和华你的 神、遵行他的道、谨守他的诫命、律例、典章、使你可以存活、人数增多、耶和华你 神就必在你所要进去得为业的地上、赐福与你。
in that I command thee this day to love Jehovah thy God, to walk in his ways, and to keep his commandments and his statutes and his ordinances, that thou mayest live and multiply, and that Jehovah thy God may bless thee in the land whither thou goest in to possess it.
17
倘若你心里偏离不肯听从、却被勾引去敬拜事奉别神、
But if thy heart turn away, and thou wilt not hear, but shalt be drawn away, and worship other gods, and serve them;
18
我今日明明告诉你们、你们必要灭亡、在你过约但河进去得为业的地上、你的日子必不长久。
I denounce unto you this day, that ye shall surely perish; ye shall not prolong your days in the land, whither thou passest over the Jordan to go in to possess it.
19
我今日呼天唤地向你作见证、我将生死、祸福、陈明在你面前、所以你要拣选生命、使你和你的后裔都得存活。
I call heaven and earth to witness against you this day, that I have set before thee life and death, the blessing and the curse: therefore choose life, that thou mayest live, thou and thy seed;
20
且爱耶和华你的 神、听从他的话、专靠他、因为他是你的生命.你的日子长久、也在乎他.这样、你就可以在耶和华向你列祖亚伯拉罕、以撒、雅各、起誓应许所赐的地上居住。
to love Jehovah thy God, to obey his voice, and to cleave unto him; for he is thy life, and the length of thy days; that thou mayest dwell in the land which Jehovah sware unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give them.
第31章
1
摩西去告诉以色列众人、
And Moses went and spake these words unto all Israel.
2
说、我现在一百二十岁了、不能照常出入、耶和华也曾对我说、你必不得过这约但河。
And he said unto them, I am a hundred and twenty years old this day; I can no more go out and come in: and Jehovah hath said unto me, Thou shalt not go over this Jordan.
3
耶和华你们的 神必引导你们过去、将这些国民在你们面前灭绝、你们就得他们的地.约书亚必引导你们过去、正如耶和华所说的。
Jehovah thy God, he will go over before thee; he will destroy these nations from before thee, and thou shalt dispossess them: [and] Joshua, he shall go over before thee, as Jehovah hath spoken.
4
耶和华必待他们、如同从前待他所灭绝的亚摩利二王、西宏、与噩、以及他们的国一样。
And Jehovah will do unto them as he did to Sihon and to Og, the kings of the Amorites, and unto their land; whom he destroyed.
5
耶和华必将他们交给你们、你们要照我所吩咐的一切命令待他们。
And Jehovah will deliver them up before you, and ye shall do unto them according unto all the commandment which I have commanded you.
6
你们当刚强壮胆、不要害怕、也不要畏惧他们、因为耶和华你的 神和你同去、他必不撇下你、也不丢弃你。
Be strong and of good courage, fear not, nor be affrighted at them: for Jehovah thy God, he it is that doth go with thee; he will not fail thee, nor forsake thee.
7
摩西召了约书亚来、在以色列众人眼前对他说、你当刚强壮胆、因为你要和这百姓一同进入耶和华向他们列祖起誓应许所赐之地、你也要使他们承受那地为业。
And Moses called unto Joshua, and said unto him in the sight of all Israel, Be strong and of good courage: for thou shalt go with this people into the land which Jehovah hath sworn unto their fathers to give them; and thou shalt cause them to inherit it.
8
耶和华必在你前面行、他必与你同在、必不撇下你、也不丢弃你、不要惧怕、也不要惊惶。
And Jehovah, he it is that doth go before thee; he will be with thee, he will not fail thee, neither forsake thee: fear not, neither be dismayed.
9
摩西将这律法写出来、交给抬耶和华约柜的祭司利未子孙、和以色列的众长老。
And Moses wrote this law, and delivered it unto the priests the sons of Levi, that bare the ark of the covenant of Jehovah, and unto all the elders of Israel.
10
摩西吩咐他们说、每逢七年的末一年、就在豁免年的定期住棚节的时候、
And Moses commanded them, saying, At the end of [every] seven years, in the set time of the year of release, in the feast of tabernacles,
11
以色列众人来到耶和华你 神所选择的地方朝见他、那时你要在以色列众人面前、将这律法念给他们听。
when all Israel is come to appear before Jehovah thy God in the place which he shall choose, thou shalt read this law before all Israel in their hearing.
12
要招聚他们男、女、孩子、并城里寄居的、使他们听、使他们学习、好敬畏耶和华你们的 神、谨守遵行这律法的一切话。
Assemble the people, the men and the women and the little ones, and thy sojourner that is within thy gates, that they may hear, and that they may learn, and fear Jehovah your God, and observe to do all the words of this law;
13
也使他们未曾晓得这律法的儿女、得以听见、学习敬畏耶和华你们的 神、在你们过约但河要得为业之地、存活的日子、常常这样行。
and that their children, who have not known, may hear, and learn to fear Jehovah your God, as long as ye live in the land whither ye go over the Jordan to possess it.
14
耶和华对摩西说、你的死期临近了、要召约书亚来、你们二人站在会幕里、我好嘱咐他.于是摩西和约书亚去站在会幕里。
And Jehovah said unto Moses, Behold, thy days approach that thou must die: call Joshua, and present yourselves in the tent of meeting, that I may give him a charge. And Moses and Joshua went, and presented themselves in the tent of meeting.
15
耶和华在会幕里云柱中显现、云柱停在会幕门以上。
And Jehovah appeared in the Tent in a pillar of cloud: and the pillar of cloud stood over the door of the Tent.
16
耶和华又对摩西说、你必和你列祖同睡.这百姓要起来、在他们所要去的地上、在那地的人中、随从外邦神行邪淫、离弃我、违背我与他们所立的约。
And Jehovah said unto Moses, Behold, thou shalt sleep with thy fathers; and this people will rise up, and play the harlot after the strange gods of the land, whither they go to be among them, and will forsake me, and break my covenant which I have made with them.
17
那时我的怒气必向他们发作、我也必离弃他们、掩面不顾他们、以致他们被吞灭.并有许多的祸患灾难临到他们、那日他们必说、这些祸患临到我们、岂不是因我们的 神不在我们中间么。
Then my anger shall be kindled against them in that day, and I will forsake them, and I will hide my face from them, and they shall be devoured, and many evils and troubles shall come upon them; so that they will say in that day, Are not these evils come upon us because our God is not among us?
18
那时、因他们偏向别神所行的一切恶、我必定掩面不顾他们。
And I will surely hide my face in that day for all the evil which they shall have wrought, in that they are turned unto other gods.
19
现在你要写一篇歌、教导以色列人、传给他们、使这歌见证他们的不是.
Now therefore write ye this song for you, and teach thou it the children of Israel: put it in their mouths, that this song may be a witness for me against the children of Israel.
20
因为我将他们领进我向他们列祖起誓应许那流奶与蜜之地、他们在那里吃得饱足、身体肥胖、就必偏向别神事奉他们、藐视我、背弃我的约。
For when I shall have brought them into the land which I sware unto their fathers, flowing with milk and honey, and they shall have eaten and filled themselves, and waxed fat; then will they turn unto other gods, and serve them, and despise me, and break my covenant.
21
那时、有许多祸患灾难临到他们、这歌必在他们面前作见证、他们后裔的口中必念诵不忘.我未领他们到我所起誓应许之地以先、他们所怀的意念我都知道了。
And it shall come to pass, when many evils and troubles are come upon them, that this song shall testify before them as a witness; for it shall not be forgotten out of the mouths of their seed: for I know their imagination which they frame this day, before I have brought them into the land which I sware.
22
当日摩西就写了一篇歌、教导以色列人。
So Moses wrote this song the same day, and taught it the children of Israel.
23
耶和华嘱咐嫩的儿子约书亚说、你当刚强壮胆、因为你必领以色列人进我所起誓应许他们的地、我必与你同在。
And he gave Joshua the son of Nun a charge, and said, Be strong and of good courage; for thou shalt bring the children of Israel into the land which I sware unto them: and I will be with thee.
24
摩西将这律法的话写在书上、及至写完了、
And it came to pass, when Moses had made an end of writing the words of this law in a book, until they were finished,
25
就吩咐抬耶和华约柜的利未人说、
that Moses commanded the Levites, that bare the ark of the covenant of Jehovah, saying,
26
将这律法书放在耶和华你们 神的约柜旁、可以在那里见证以色列人的不是.
Take this book of the law, and put it by the side of the ark of the covenant of Jehovah your God, that it may be there for a witness against thee.
27
因为我知道你们是悖逆的、是硬着颈项的、我今日还活着与你们同在、你们尚且悖逆耶和华、何况我死后呢。
For I know thy rebellion, and thy stiff neck: behold, while I am yet alive with you this day, ye have been rebellious against Jehovah; and how much more after my death?
28
你们要将你们支派的众长老和官长都招聚了来、我好将这些话说与他们听、并呼天唤地见证他们的不是。
Assemble unto me all the elders of your tribes, and your officers, that I may speak these words in their ears, and call heaven and earth to witness against them.
29
我知道我死后你们必全然败坏、偏离我所吩咐你们的道、行耶和华眼中看为恶的事、以手所作的惹他发怒、日后必有祸患临到你们。
For I know that after my death ye will utterly corrupt yourselves, and turn aside from the way which I have commanded you; and evil will befall you in the latter days; because ye will do that which is evil in the sight of Jehovah, to provoke him to anger through the work of your hands.
30
摩西将这一篇歌的话、都说与以色列全会众听。
And Moses spake in the ears of all the assembly of Israel the words of this song, until they were finished.
第32章
1
诸天哪、侧耳、我要说话、愿地也听我口中的言语。
Give ear, ye heavens, and I will speak; And let the earth hear the words of my mouth.
2
我的教训要淋漓如雨、我的言语要滴落如露、如细雨降在嫩草上、如甘霖降在菜蔬中。
My doctrine shall drop as the rain; My speech shall distil as the dew, As the small rain upon the tender grass, And as the showers upon the herb.
3
我要宣告耶和华的名.你们要将大德归与我们的 神。
For I will proclaim the name of Jehovah: Ascribe ye greatness unto our God.
4
他是磐石、他的作为完全、他所行的无不公平.是诚实无伪的 神、又公义、又正直。
The Rock, his work is perfect; For all his ways are justice: A God of faithfulness and without iniquity, Just and right is he.
5
这乖僻弯曲的世代、向他行事邪僻、有这弊病、就不是他的儿女。
They have dealt corruptly with him, [they are] not his children, [it is] their blemish; [They are] a perverse and crooked generation.
6
愚昧无知的民哪、你们这样报答耶和华么.他岂不是你的父、将你买来的么.他是制造你、建立你的。
Do ye thus requite Jehovah, O foolish people and unwise? Is not he thy father that hath bought thee? He hath made thee, and established thee.
7
你当追想上古之日、思念历代之年.问你的父亲、他必指示你、问你的长者、他必告诉你。
Remember the days of old, Consider the years of many generations: Ask thy father, and he will show thee; Thine elders, and they will tell thee.
8
至高者将地业赐给列邦、将世人分开、就照以色列人的数目、立定万民的疆界。
When the Most High gave to the nations their inheritance, When he separated the children of men, He set the bounds of the peoples According to the number of the children of Israel.
9
耶和华的分、本是他的百姓.他的产业、本是雅各。
For Jehovah`s portion is his people; Jacob is the lot of his inheritance.
10
耶和华遇见他在旷野荒凉野兽吼叫之地、就环绕他、看顾他、保护他、如同保护眼中的瞳人。
He found him in a desert land, And in the waste howling wilderness; He compassed him about, he cared for him, He kept him as the apple of his eye.
11
又如鹰搅动巢窝、在雏鹰以上两翅搧展、接取雏鹰、背在两翼之上、
As an eagle that stirreth up her nest, That fluttereth over her young, He spread abroad his wings, he took them, He bare them on his pinions.
12
这样、耶和华独自引导他、并无外邦神与他同在。
Jehovah alone did lead him, And there was no foreign god with him.
13
耶和华使他乘驾地的高处、得吃田间的土产、又使他从磐石中咂蜜、从坚石中吸油。
He made him ride on the high places of the earth, And he did eat the increase of the field; And he made him to suck honey out of the rock, And oil out of the flinty rock;
14
也吃牛的奶油、羊的奶、羊羔的脂油、巴珊所出的公绵羊、和山羊、与上好的麦子、也喝葡萄汁酿的酒。
Butter of the herd, and milk of the flock, With fat of lambs, And rams of the breed of Bashan, and goats, With the finest of the wheat; And of the blood of the grape thou drankest wine.
15
但耶书仑渐渐肥胖、粗壮、光润、踢跳奔跑.便离弃造他的 神、轻看救他的磐石。
But Jeshurun waxed fat, and kicked: Thou art waxed fat, thou art grown thick, thou art become sleek; Then he forsook God who made him, And lightly esteemed the Rock of his salvation.
16
敬拜别神、触动 神的愤恨、行可憎恶的事惹了他的怒气。
They moved him to jealousy with strange [gods]; With abominations provoked they him to anger.
17
所祭祀的鬼魔、并非真神、乃是素不认识的神、是近来新兴的、是你列祖所不畏惧的。
They sacrificed unto demons, [which were] no God, To gods that they knew not, To new [gods] that came up of late, Which your fathers dreaded not.
18
你轻忽生你的磐石、忘记产你的 神。
Of the Rock that begat thee thou art unmindful, And hast forgotten God that gave thee birth.
19
耶和华看见他的儿女惹动他、就厌恶他们。
And Jehovah saw [it], and abhorred [them], Because of the provocation of his sons and his daughters.
20
说、我要向他们掩面、看他们的结局如何.他们本是极乖僻的族类、心中无诚实的儿女。
And he said, I will hide my face from them, I will see what their end shall be: For they are a very perverse generation, Children in whom is no faithfulness.
21
他们以那不算为神的、触动我的愤恨、以虚无的神、惹了我的怒气、我也要以那不成子民的、触动他们的愤恨、以愚昧的国民、惹了他们的怒气。
They have moved me to jealousy with that which is not God; They have provoked me to anger with their vanities: And I will move them to jealousy with those that are not a people; I will provoke them to anger with a foolish nation.
22
因为在我怒中有火烧起、直烧到极深的阴间、把地和地的出产、尽都焚烧、山的根基也烧𤏲了。
For a fire is kindled in mine anger, And burneth unto the lowest Sheol, And devoureth the earth with its increase, And setteth on fire the foundations of the mountains.
23
我要将祸患堆在他们身上、把我的箭向他们射尽。
I will heap evils upon them; I will spend mine arrows upon them:
24
他们必因饥饿消瘦、被炎热苦毒吞灭.我要打发野兽用牙齿咬他们、并土中腹行的、用毒气害他们。
[They shall be] wasted with hunger, and devoured with burning heat And bitter destruction; And the teeth of beasts will I send upon them, With the poison of crawling things of the dust.
25
外头有刀剑、内室有惊恐、使人丧亡、使少男、童女、吃奶的、白发的、尽都灭绝。
Without shall the sword bereave, And in the chambers terror; [It shall destroy] both young man and virgin, The suckling with the man of gray hairs.
26
我说、我必将他们分散远方、使他们的名号从人间除灭、
I said, I would scatter them afar, I would make the remembrance of them to cease from among men;
27
惟恐仇敌惹动我、只怕敌人错看、说、是我们手的能力、并非耶和华所行的。
Were it not that I feared the provocation of the enemy, Lest their adversaries should judge amiss, Lest they should say, Our hand is exalted, And Jehovah hath not done all this.
28
因为以色列民毫无计谋、心中没有聪明。
For they are a nation void of counsel, And there is no understanding in them.
29
惟愿他们有智慧、能明白这事、肯思念他们的结局。
Oh that they were wise, that they understood this, That they would consider their latter end!
30
若不是他们的磐石卖了他们、若不是耶和华交出他们、一人焉能追赶他们千人、二人焉能使万人逃跑呢。
How should one chase a thousand, And two put ten thousand to flight, Except their Rock had sold them, And Jehovah had delivered them up?
31
据我们的仇敌自己断定、他们的磐石不如我们的磐石。
For their rock is not as our Rock, Even our enemies themselves being judges.
32
他们的葡萄树是所多玛的葡萄树、蛾摩拉田园所生的、他们的葡萄是毒葡萄、全挂都是苦的。
For their vine is of the vine of Sodom, And of the fields of Gomorrah: Their grapes are grapes of gall, Their clusters are bitter:
33
他们的酒是大蛇的毒气、是虺蛇残害的恶毒。
Their wine is the poison of serpents, And the cruel venom of asps.
34
这不都是积蓄在我这里、封锁在我府库中么。
Is not this laid up in store with me, Sealed up among my treasures?
35
他们失脚的时候、伸冤报应在我.因他们遭灾的日子近了、那要临在他们身上的、必速速来到。
Vengeance is mine, and recompense, At the time when their foot shall slide: For the day of their calamity is at hand, And the things that are to come upon them shall make haste.
36
耶和华见他百姓毫无能力、无论困住的、自由的、都没有剩下、就必为他们伸冤、为他的仆人后悔。
For Jehovah will judge his people, And repent himself for his servants; When he seeth that [their] power is gone, And there is none [remaining], shut up or left at large.
37
他必说、他们的神、他们所投靠的磐石、
And he will say, Where are their gods, The rock in which they took refuge;
38
就是向来吃他们祭牲的脂油、喝他们奠祭之酒的、在哪里呢.他可以兴起帮助你们、护卫你们。
Which did eat the fat of their sacrifices, [And] drank the wine of their drink-offering? Let them rise up and help you, Let them be your protection.
39
你们如今要知道、我、惟有我是 神、在我以外并无别神.我使人死、我使人活、我损伤、我也医治、并无人能从我手中救出来。
See now that I, even I, am he, And there is no god with me: I kill, and I make alive; I wound, and I heal; And there is none that can deliver out of my hand.
40
我向天举手说、我凭我的永生起誓.
For I lift up my hand to heaven, And say, As I live for ever,
41
我若磨我闪亮的刀、手掌审判之权、就必报复我的敌人、报应恨我的人。
If I whet my glittering sword, And my hand take hold on judgment; I will render vengeance to mine adversaries, And will recompense them that hate me.
42
我要使我的箭饮血饮醉、就是被杀被掳之人的血.我的刀要吃肉、乃是仇敌中首领之头的肉。
I will make mine arrows drunk with blood, And my sword shall devour flesh; With the blood of the slain and the captives, From the head of the leaders of the enemy.
43
你们外邦人、当与主的百姓一同欢呼、因他要伸他仆人流血的冤、报应他的敌人、洁净他的地、救赎他的百姓。
Rejoice, O ye nations, [with] his people: For he will avenge the blood of his servants, And will render vengeance to his adversaries, And will make expiation for his land, for his people.
44
摩西和嫩的儿子约书亚、去将这歌的一切话、说给百姓听。
And Moses came and spake all the words of this song in the ears of the people, he, and Hoshea the son of Nun.
45
摩西向以色列众人说完了这一切的话.
And Moses made an end of speaking all these words to all Israel;
46
又说、我今日所警教你们的、你们都要放在心上、要吩咐你们的子孙谨守遵行这律法上的话.
And he said unto them, Set your heart unto all the words which I testify unto you this day, which ye shall command your children to observe to do, [even] all the words of this law.
47
因为这不是虚空与你们无关的事、乃是你们的生命、在你们过约但河要得为业的地上、必因这事日子得以长久。
For it is no vain thing for you; because it is your life, and through this thing ye shall prolong your days in the land, whither ye go over the Jordan to possess it.
48
当日耶和华吩咐摩西说、
And Jehovah spake unto Moses that selfsame day, saying,
49
你上这亚巴琳山中的尼波山去、在摩押地与耶利哥相对、观看我所要赐给以色列人为业的迦南地。
Get thee up into this mountain of Abarim, unto mount Nebo, which is in the land of Moab, that is over against Jericho; and behold the land of Canaan, which I give unto the children of Israel for a possession;
50
你必死在你所登的山上、归你列祖〈原文作本民〉去、像你哥哥亚伦、死在何珥山上、归他的列祖一样.
and die in the mount whither thou goest up, and be gathered unto thy people, as Aaron thy brother died in mount Hor, and was gathered unto his people:
51
因为你们在寻的旷野、加低斯的米利巴水、在以色列人中没有尊我为圣、得罪了我。
because ye trespassed against me in the midst of the children of Israel at the waters of Meribah of Kadesh, in the wilderness of Zin; because ye sanctified me not in the midst of the children of Israel.
52
我所赐给以色列人的地、你可以远远的观看、却不得进去。
For thou shalt see the land before thee; but thou shalt not go thither into the land which I give the children of Israel.
第33章
1
以下是神人摩西、在未死之先、为以色列人所祝的福。
And this is the blessing, wherewith Moses the man of God blessed the children of Israel before his death.
2
他说、耶和华从西乃而来、从西珥向他们显现、从巴兰山发出光辉、从万万圣者中来临.从他右手为百姓传出烈火的律法。
And he said, Jehovah came from Sinai, And rose from Seir unto them; He shined forth from mount Paran, And he came from the ten thousands of holy ones: At his right hand was a fiery law for them.
3
他疼爱百姓.众圣徒都在他手中.他们坐在他的脚下、领受他的言语。
Yea, he loveth the people; All his saints are in thy hand: And they sat down at thy feet; [Every one] shall receive of thy words.
4
摩西将律法传给我们作为雅各会众的产业。
Moses commanded us a law, An inheritance for the assembly of Jacob.
5
百姓的众首领、以色列的各支派、一同聚会的时候、耶和华〈原文作他〉在耶书仑中为王。
And he was king in Jeshurun, When the heads of the people were gathered, All the tribes of Israel together.
6
愿流便存活不至死亡、愿他人数不至稀少。
Let Reuben live, and not die; Nor let his men be few.
7
为犹大祝福说、求耶和华俯听犹大的声音、引导他归于本族.他曾用手为自己争战、你必帮助他攻击敌人。
And this is [the blessing] of Judah: and he said, Hear, Jehovah, the voice of Judah, And bring him in unto his people. With his hands he contended for himself; And thou shalt be a help against his adversaries.
8
论利未说、耶和华阿、你的土明、和乌陵、都在你的虔诚人那里.你在玛撒曾试验他、在米利巴水与他争论。
And of Levi he said, Thy Thummim and thy Urim are with thy godly one, Whom thou didst prove at Massah, With whom thou didst strive at the waters of Meribah;
9
他论自己的父母说、我未曾看见、他也不承认弟兄、也不认识自己的儿女.这是因利未人遵行你的话、谨守你的约。
Who said of his father, and of his mother, I have not seen him; Neither did he acknowledge his brethren, Nor knew he his own children: For they have observed thy word, And keep thy covenant.
10
他们要将你的典章教训雅各、将你的律法教训以色列.他们要把香焚在你面前、把全牲的燔祭献在你的坛上。
They shall teach Jacob thine ordinances, And Israel thy law: They shall put incense before thee, And whole burnt-offering upon thine altar.
11
求耶和华降福在他的财物上、悦纳他手里所办的事.那些起来攻击他和恨恶他的人、愿你刺透他们的腰、使他们不得再起来。
Bless, Jehovah, his substance, And accept the work of his hands: Smite through the loins of them that rise up against him, And of them that hate him, that they rise not again.
12
论便雅悯说、耶和华所亲爱的、必同耶和华安然居住、耶和华终日遮蔽他、也住在他两肩之中。
Of Benjamin he said, The beloved of Jehovah shall dwell in safety by him; He covereth him all the day long, And he dwelleth between his shoulders.
13
论约瑟说、愿他的地蒙耶和华赐福、得天上的宝物、甘露、以及地里所藏的泉水.
And of Joseph he said, Blessed of Jehovah be his land, For the precious things of heaven, for the dew, And for the deep that coucheth beneath,
14
得太阳所晒熟的美果、月亮所养成的宝物.
And for the precious things of the fruits of the sun, And for the precious things of the growth of the moons,
15
得上古之山的至宝、永世之岭的宝物.
And for the chief things of the ancient mountains, And for the precious things of the everlasting hills,
16
得地和其中所充满的宝物、并住荆棘中上主的喜悦.愿这些福都归于约瑟的头上、归于那与弟兄迥别之人的顶上。
And for the precious things of the earth and the fulness thereof, And the good will of him that dwelt in the bush. Let [the blessing] come upon the head of Joseph, And upon the crown of the head of him that was separate from his brethren.
17
他为牛群中头生的、有威严.他的角是野牛的角、用以抵触万邦、直到地极、这角、是以法莲的万万、玛拿西的千千。
The firstling of his herd, majesty is his; And his horns are the horns of the wild-ox: With them he shall push the peoples all of them, [even] the ends of the earth: And they are the ten thousands of Ephraim, And they are the thousands of Manasseh.
18
论西布伦说、西布伦哪、你出外可以欢喜.以萨迦阿、在你帐棚里可以快乐。
And of Zebulun he said, Rejoice, Zebulun, in thy going out; And, Issachar, in thy tents.
19
他们要将列邦召到山上、在那里献公义的祭、因为他们要吸取海里的丰富、并沙中所藏的珍宝。
They shall call the peoples unto the mountain; There shall they offer sacrifices of righteousness: For they shall suck the abundance of the seas, And the hidden treasures of the sand.
20
论迦得说、使迦得扩张的、应当称颂、迦得住如母狮、他撕裂膀臂、连头顶也撕裂。
And of Gad he said, Blessed be he that enlargeth Gad: He dwelleth as a lioness, And teareth the arm, yea, the crown of the head.
21
他为自己选择头一段地、因在那里有设立律法者的分存留.他与百姓的首领同来、他施行耶和华的公义、和耶和华与以色列所立的典章。
And he provided the first part for himself, For there was the lawgiver`s portion reserved; And he came [with] the heads of the people; He executed the righteousness of Jehovah, And his ordinances with Israel.
22
论但说、但为小狮子、从巴珊跳出来。
And of Dan he said, Dan is a lion`s whelp, That leapeth forth from Bashan.
23
论拿弗他利说、拿弗他利阿、你足沾恩惠、满得耶和华的福、可以得西方和南方为业。
And of Naphtali he said, O Naphtali, satisfied with favor, And full with the blessing of Jehovah, Possess thou the west and the south.
24
论亚设说、愿亚设享受多子的福乐、得他弟兄的喜悦、可以把脚蘸在油中。
And of Asher he said, Blessed be Asher with children; Let him be acceptable unto his brethren, And let him dip his foot in oil.
25
你的门闩〈门闩或作鞋〉是铜的、铁的.你的日子如何、你的力量也必如何。
Thy bars shall be iron and brass; And as thy days, so shall thy strength be.
26
耶书仑哪、没有能比 神的.他为帮助你、乘在天空、显其威荣、驾行穹苍。
There is none like unto God, O Jeshurun, Who rideth upon the heavens for thy help, And in his excellency on the skies.
27
永生的 神是你的居所.他永久的膀臂在你以下.他在你前面、撵出仇敌、说、毁灭罢。
The eternal God is [thy] dwelling-place, And underneath are the everlasting arms. And he thrust out the enemy from before thee, And said, Destroy.
28
以色列安然居住、雅各的本源、独居五谷新酒之地、他的天也滴甘露。
And Israel dwelleth in safety, The fountain of Jacob alone, In a land of grain and new wine; Yea, his heavens drop down dew.
29
以色列阿、你是有福的、谁像你这蒙耶和华所拯救的百姓呢.他是你的盾牌帮助你、是你威荣的刀剑.你的仇敌必投降你、你必踏在他们的高处。
Happy art thou, O Israel: Who is like unto thee, a people saved by Jehovah, The shield of thy help, And the sword of thy excellency! And thine enemies shall submit themselves unto thee; And thou shalt tread upon their high places.
第34章
1
摩西从摩押平原登尼波山、上了那与耶利哥相对的毘斯迦山顶。耶和华把基列全地直到但、
And Moses went up from the plains of Moab unto mount Nebo, to the top of Pisgah, that is over against Jericho. And Jehovah showed him all the land of Gilead, unto Dan,
2
拿弗他利全地、以法莲、玛拿西的地、犹大全地直到西海、
and all Naphtali, and the land of Ephraim and Manasseh, and all the land of Judah, unto the hinder sea,
3
南地、和棕树城耶利哥的平原、直到琐珥、都指给他看。
and the South, and the Plain of the valley of Jericho the city of palm-trees, unto Zoar.
4
耶和华对他说、这就是我向亚伯拉罕、以撒、雅各、起誓应许之地、说、我必将这地赐给你的后裔.现在我使你眼睛看见了、你却不得过到那里去.
And Jehovah said unto him, This is the land which I sware unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob, saying, I will give it unto thy seed: I have caused thee to see it with thine eyes, but thou shalt not go over thither.
5
于是耶和华的仆人摩西死在摩押地、正如耶和华所说的。
So Moses the servant of Jehovah died there in the land of Moab, according to the word of Jehovah.
6
耶和华将他埋葬在摩押地、伯毘珥对面的谷中、只是到今日没有人知道他的坟墓。
And he buried him in the valley in the land of Moab over against Beth-peor: but no man knoweth of his sepulchre unto this day.
7
摩西死的时候、年一百二十岁.眼目没有昏花、精神没有衰败。
And Moses was a hundred and twenty years old when he died: his eye was not dim, nor his natural force abated.
8
以色列人在摩押平原为摩西哀哭了三十日、为摩西居丧哀哭的日子就满了。
And the children of Israel wept for Moses in the plains of Moab thirty days: so the days of weeping in the mourning for Moses were ended.
9
嫩的儿子约书亚、因为摩西曾按手在他头上、就被智慧的灵充满、以色列人便听从他、照着耶和华吩咐摩西的行了。
And Joshua the son of Nun was full of the spirit of wisdom; for Moses had laid his hands upon him: and the children of Israel hearkened unto him, and did as Jehovah commanded Moses.
10
以后以色列中再没有兴起先知像摩西的.他是耶和华面对面所认识的。
And there hath not arisen a prophet since in Israel like unto Moses, whom Jehovah knew face to face,
11
耶和华打发他在埃及地、向法老和他的一切臣仆、并他的全地、行各样神迹奇事。
in all the signs and the wonders, which Jehovah sent him to do in the land of Egypt, to Pharaoh, and to all his servants, and to all his land,
12
又在以色列众人眼前显大能的手、行一切大而可畏的事。
and in all the mighty hand, and in all the great terror, which Moses wrought in the sight of all Israel.
