你晓谕亚伦和他儿子并以色列众人说,耶和华所吩咐的乃是这样,
Speak unto Aaron, and unto his sons, and unto all the children of Israel, and say unto them; This is the thing which the LORD hath commanded, saying,
凡以色列家中的人宰公牛,或是绵羊羔,或是山羊,不拘宰于营内营外,
What man soever there be of the house of Israel, that killeth an ox, or lamb, or goat, in the camp, or that killeth it out of the camp,
若未曾牵到会幕门口,耶和华的帐幕前献给耶和华为供物,流血的罪必归到那人身上。他流了血,要从民中剪除。
And bringeth it not unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, to offer an offering unto the LORD before the tabernacle of the LORD; blood shall be imputed unto that man; he hath shed blood; and that man shall be cut off from among his people:
这是为要使以色列人把他们在田野里所献的祭带到会幕门口,耶和华面前,交给祭司,献与耶和华为平安祭。
To the end that the children of Israel may bring their sacrifices, which they offer in the open field, even that they may bring them unto the LORD, unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, unto the priest, and offer them for peace offerings unto the LORD.
祭司要把血洒在会幕门口,耶和华的坛上,把脂油焚烧,献给耶和华为馨香的祭。
And the priest shall sprinkle the blood upon the altar of the LORD at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and burn the fat for a sweet savour unto the LORD.
你要晓谕他们说,凡以色列家中的人,或是寄居在他们中间的外人,献燔祭或是平安祭,
And thou shalt say unto them, Whatsoever man there be of the house of Israel, or of the strangers which sojourn among you, that offereth a burnt offering or sacrifice,
若不带到会幕门口献给耶和华,那人必从民中剪除。
And bringeth it not unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, to offer it unto the LORD; even that man shall be cut off from among his people.
因为活物的生命是在血中。我把这血赐给你们,可以在坛上为你们的生命赎罪,因血里有生命,所以能赎罪。
For the life of the flesh is in the blood: and I have given it to you upon the altar to make an atonement for your souls: for it is the blood that maketh an atonement for the soul.
因此,我对以色列人说,你们都不可吃血,寄居在你们中间的外人也不可吃血。
Therefore I said unto the children of Israel, No soul of you shall eat blood, neither shall any stranger that sojourneth among you eat blood.
凡以色列人,或是寄居在他们中间的外人,若打猎得了可吃的禽兽,必放出它的血来,用土掩盖。
And whatsoever man there be of the children of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn among you, which hunteth and catcheth any beast or fowl that may be eaten; he shall even pour out the blood thereof, and cover it with dust.
