Leviticus 21
1 Yahweh also said to Moses/me, “Speak to the priests, the sons of Aaron, and say to them,
耶和华对摩西说：“你告诉亚伦子孙作祭司的说：祭司不可为民中的死人沾染自己，
2 ‘You priests must not cause yourselves to become unfit to do my work by [touching] corpses. Priests are permitted to touch only the corpses of close relatives, such as the priest’s mother or father or his son or daughter or his brother.
除非为他骨肉之亲的父母、儿女、弟兄，
3 Priests are also permitted to touch the corpse of a sister if she is not married, because she has no husband [to bury her body].
和未曾出嫁、作处女的姊妹，才可以沾染自己。
4 Priests must not cause themselves to become unfit to do my work [DOU] by [touching corpses of] people who were married to one of their close relatives.
祭司既在民中为首，就不可从俗沾染自己。
5 You priests must not shave your heads or shave the edges of your beards or cut your bodies [to show that you are mourning for someone who has died].
不可使头光秃；不可剃除胡须的周围，也不可用刀划身。
6 You must act in ways that I, your God, consider to be holy, and not disgrace my name/reputation. You are the ones who present to me the offerings that are burned. [It is as though] those offerings are food for me, your God; so you must act in ways that are holy.
要归 神为圣，不可亵渎 神的名；因为耶和华的火祭，就是 神的食物，是他们献的，所以他们要成为圣。
7 You priests must not marry women who have been prostitutes or who have been divorced from their husbands, because you priests are (set apart for me/holy).
不可娶妓女或被污的女人为妻，也不可娶被休的妇人为妻，因为祭司是归 神为圣。
8 You must consider that you are holy, because you offer food to me, your God. Consider yourselves to be holy because I, Yahweh, [the one who caused you to be priests and] the one who enables you to be holy, am holy.
所以你要使他成圣，因为他奉献你 神的食物；你要以他为圣，因为我—使你们成圣的耶和华—是圣的。
9 If a priest’s daughter disgraces herself by becoming a prostitute, she disgraces her father; and she must be killed by being burned in a fire.
祭司的女儿若行淫辱没自己，就辱没了父亲，必用火将她焚烧。
10 The Supreme Priest is the one among his relatives who has been [appointed for that work] by having his head anointed with olive oil. He is also the one who has been appointed to wear the special garments that priests wear. He must not allow the hair on his [head] to remain uncombed, and he must not tear his clothes [when he is mourning for someone].
“在弟兄中作大祭司、头上倒了膏油、又承接圣职、穿了圣衣的，不可蓬头散发，也不可撕裂衣服。
11 He must not enter some place where there is a corpse. He must not do that and cause himself to become unfit for his work, even if it is his father or his mother who has died.
不可挨近死尸，也不可为父母沾染自己。
12 He must not leave the Sacred Tent [to join those who are mourning], because he would cause himself to become unfit for his work and would also defile/desecrate the Sacred Tent. He must not leave the Sacred Tent [at that time], because by being anointed with olive oil he has been (appointed/set apart) to serve his God [in the Sacred Tent]. I, Yahweh, [am the one who am commanding this].
不可出圣所，也不可亵渎 神的圣所，因为 神膏油的冠冕在他头上。我是耶和华。
13 Women whom you priests marry must be virgins.
他要娶处女为妻。
14 You priests must not marry widows or prostitutes or divorced women, because if you did that, [if you later have] sons, they would not be acceptable to be priests among your people. You must marry only virgins from among your own people. I am Yahweh, who sets priests apart to be holy.’”
寡妇或是被休的妇人，或是被污为妓的女人，都不可娶；只可娶本民中的处女为妻。
不可在民中辱没他的儿女，因为我是叫他成圣的耶和华。”
16 Yahweh also said to Moses/me,
耶和华对摩西说：
17 “Say this to Aaron: 'For all future time, none of your descendants who has any defects [on his body] will be allowed to come near [the altar] to offer [sacrifices to me which will be like] [MET] my food:
“你告诉亚伦说：你世世代代的后裔，凡有残疾的，都不可近前来献他 神的食物。
18 No one who is blind or lame or deformed, or whose [face is] disfigured,
因为凡有残疾的，无论是瞎眼的、瘸腿的、塌鼻子的、肢体有余的、
19 no man with a crippled foot or a crippled hand,
折脚折手的、
20 no man who is a hunchback or a dwarf, no man whose eyes are defective, no man who has a skin disease [DOU] or whose testicles have been damaged is allowed to brings sacrifices.
驼背的、矮矬的、眼睛有毛病的、长癣的、长疥的，或是损坏肾子的，都不可近前来。
21 No descendant of Aaron, the [first Supreme] Priest, who has any defect is allowed to come to the altar to offer to me, his God, sacrifices that will be burned.
祭司亚伦的后裔，凡有残疾的，都不可近前来，将火祭献给耶和华。他有残疾，不可近前来献 神的食物。
22 Priests who have defects are permitted to eat the various kinds of holy food offered to me.
神的食物，无论是圣的，至圣的，他都可以吃。
23 But because of their defects, they must not go near the curtain [in the Sacred Tent] or near the altar, because if they did that, they would desecrate my Sacred Tent. I am Yahweh, the one who sets those places apart as being holy.'”
但不可进到幔子前，也不可就近坛前；因为他有残疾，免得亵渎我的圣所。我是叫他成圣的耶和华。”
24 So Moses/I told this to Aaron and to his sons and to all the Israeli people.
于是，摩西晓谕亚伦和亚伦的子孙，并以色列众人。
