申命記 18

「祭司利未人和利未全支派必在以色列中無分無業；他們所吃用的就是獻給耶和華的火祭和一切所捐的。

「 jì sī lì wèi rén hé lì wèi quán zhī pài bì zài yǐ sè liè zhōng wú fēn wú yè ； tā men suǒ chī yòng de jiù shì xiàn gěi yē hé huá de huǒ jì hé yí qiè suǒ juān de 。

The priests and the Levites—all the tribe of Levi—shall have no portion nor inheritance with Israel. They shall eat the offerings of the LORD made by fire and his portion.

他們在弟兄中必沒有產業；耶和華是他們的產業，正如耶和華所應許他們的。

tā men zài dì xiong zhōng bì méi yǒu chǎn yè ； yē hé huá shì tā men de chǎn yè ， zhèng rú yē hé huá suǒ yīng xǔ tā men de 。

They shall have no inheritance among their brothers. The LORD is their inheritance, as he has spoken to them.

祭司從百姓所當得的分乃是這樣：凡獻牛或羊為祭的，要把前腿和兩腮並脾胃給祭司。

jì sī cóng bǎi xìng suǒ dāng dé de fēn nǎi shì zhè yàng ： fán xiàn niú huò yáng wèi jì de ， yào bǎ qián tuǐ hé liǎng sāi bìng pí wèi gěi jì sī 。

This shall be the priests’ due from the people, from those who offer a sacrifice, whether it be ox or sheep, that they shall give to the priest: the shoulder, the two cheeks, and the inner parts.

初收的五穀、新酒和油，並初剪的羊毛，也要給他；

chū shōu de wǔ gǔ 、 xīn jiǔ hé yóu ， bìng chū jiǎn de yáng máo ， yě yào gěi tā ；

You shall give him the first fruits of your grain, of your new wine, and of your oil, and the first of the fleece of your sheep.

因為耶和華－你的上帝從你各支派中將他揀選出來，使他和他子孫永遠奉耶和華的名侍立，事奉。

yīn wèi yē hé huá — nǐ de shén cóng nǐ gè zhī pài zhōng jiàng tā jiǎn xuǎn chū lái ， shǐ tā hé tā zǐ sūn yǒng yuǎn fèng yē hé huá de míng shì lì ， shì fèng 。

For the LORD your God has chosen him out of all your tribes to stand to minister in the LORD’s name, him and his sons forever.

「利未人無論寄居在以色列中的哪一座城，若從那裏出來，一心願意到耶和華所選擇的地方，

「 lì wèi rén wú lùn jì jū zài yǐ sè liè zhōng de nǎ yí zuò chéng ， ruò cóng nà lǐ chū lái ， yì xīn yuàn yì dào yē hé huá suǒ xuǎn zé de dì fāng ，

If a Levite comes from any of your gates out of all Israel where he lives, and comes with all the desire of his soul to the place which the LORD shall choose,

就要奉耶和華－他上帝的名事奉，像他眾弟兄利未人侍立在耶和華面前事奉一樣。

jiù yào fèng yē hé huá — tā shén de míng shì fèng ， xiàng tā zhòng dì xiong lì wèi rén shì lì zài yē hé huá miàn qián shì fèng yí yàng 。

then he shall minister in the name of the LORD his God, as all his brothers the Levites do, who stand there before the LORD.

除了他賣祖父產業所得的以外，還要得一分祭物與他們同吃。」

chú le tā mài zǔ fù chǎn yè suǒ dé de yǐ wài ， hái yào dé yì fēn jì wù yǔ tā men tóng chī 。」

They shall have like portions to eat, in addition to that which comes from the sale of his family possessions.

「你到了耶和華－你上帝所賜之地，那些國民所行可憎惡的事，你不可學着行。

「 nǐ dào le yē hé huá — nǐ shén suǒ cì zhī dì ， nà xiē guó mín suǒ xíng kě zēng wù de shì ， nǐ bù kě xué zhe xíng 。

When you have come into the land which the LORD your God gives you, you shall not learn to imitate the abominations of those nations.

你們中間不可有人使兒女經火，也不可有占卜的、觀兆的、用法術的、行邪術的、

nǐ men zhōng jiān bù kě yǒu rén shǐ ér nǚ jīng huǒ ， yě bù kě yǒu zhān bǔ de 、 guān zhào de 、 yòng fǎ shù de 、 xíng xié shù de 、

There shall not be found with you anyone who makes his son or his daughter to pass through the fire, one who uses divination, one who tells fortunes, or an enchanter, or a sorcerer,

用迷術的、交鬼的、行巫術的、過陰的。

yòng mí shù de 、 jiāo guǐ de 、 xíng wū shù de 、 guò yīn de 。

or a charmer, or someone who consults with a familiar spirit, or a wizard, or a necromancer.

凡行這些事的都為耶和華所憎惡；因那些國民行這可憎惡的事，所以耶和華－你的上帝將他們從你面前趕出。

fán xíng zhè xiē shì de dōu wèi yē hé huá suǒ zēng wù ； yīn nà xiē guó mín xíng zhè kě zēng è de shì ， suǒ yǐ yē hé huá — nǐ de shén jiāng tā men cóng nǐ miàn qián gǎn chū 。

For whoever does these things is an abomination to the LORD. Because of these abominations, the LORD your God drives them out from before you.

你要在耶和華－你的上帝面前作完全人。」

nǐ yào zài yē hé huá — nǐ de shén miàn qián zuò wán quán rén 。」

You shall be blameless with the LORD your God.

「因你所要趕出的那些國民都聽信觀兆的和占卜的，至於你，耶和華－你的上帝從來不許你這樣行。

「 yīn nǐ suǒ yào gǎn chū de nà xiē guó mín dōu tīng xìn guān zhào de hé zhàn bǔ de ， zhì yú nǐ ， yē hé huá — nǐ de shén cóng lái bù xǔ nǐ zhè yàng xíng 。

For these nations that you shall dispossess listen to those who practice sorcery and to diviners; but as for you, the LORD your God has not allowed you so to do.

耶和華－你的上帝要從你們弟兄中間給你興起一位先知，像我，你們要聽從他。

yē hé huá — nǐ de shén yào cóng nǐ men dì xiong zhōng jiān gěi nǐ xīng qǐ yí wèi xiān zhī ， xiàng wǒ ， nǐ men yào tīng cóng tā 。

The LORD your God will raise up to you a prophet from among you, of your brothers, like me. You shall listen to him.

正如你在何烈山大會的日子求耶和華－你上帝一切的話，說：『求你不再叫我聽見耶和華－我上帝的聲音，也不再叫我看見這大火，免得我死亡。』

zhèng rú nǐ zài hé liè shān dà huì de rì zi qiú yē hé huá — nǐ shén yí qiè de huà ， shuō ：『 qiú nǐ bú zài jiào wǒ tīng jiàn yē hé huá — wǒ shén de shēng yīn ， yě bú zài jiào wǒ kàn jiàn zhè dà huǒ ， miǎn de wǒ sǐ wáng 。』

This is according to all that you desired of the LORD your God in Horeb in the day of the assembly, saying, “Let me not hear again the LORD my God’s voice, neither let me see this great fire any more, that I not die.”

耶和華就對我說：『他們所說的是。

yē hé huá jiù duì wǒ shuō ：『 tā men suǒ shuō de shì 。

The LORD said to me, “They have well said that which they have spoken.

我必在他們弟兄中間給他們興起一位先知，像你。我要將當說的話傳給他；他要將我一切所吩咐的都傳給他們。

wǒ bì zài tā men dì xiong zhōng jiān gěi tā men xīng qǐ yí wèi xiān zhī ， xiàng nǐ 。 wǒ yào jiāng dāng shuō de huà chuán gěi tā ； tā yào jiāng wǒ yí qiè suǒ fēn fù de dōu chuán gěi tā men 。

I will raise them up a prophet from among their brothers, like you. I will put my words in his mouth, and he shall speak to them all that I shall command him.

誰不聽他奉我名所說的話，我必討誰的罪。

shuí bù tīng tā fèng wǒ míng suǒ shuō de huà ， wǒ bì tǎo shuí de zuì 。

It shall happen, that whoever will not listen to my words which he shall speak in my name, I will require it of him.

若有先知擅敢託我的名說我所未曾吩咐他說的話，或是奉別神的名說話，那先知就必治死。』

ruò yǒu xiān zhī shàn gǎn tuō wǒ de míng shuō wǒ suǒ wèi céng fēn fù tā shuō de huà ， huò shì fèng bié shén de míng shuō huà ， nà xiān zhī jiù bì zhì sǐ 。』

But the prophet who speaks a word presumptuously in my name, which I have not commanded him to speak, or who speaks in the name of other gods, that same prophet shall die.”

你心裏若說：『耶和華所未曾吩咐的話，我們怎能知道呢？』

nǐ xīn lǐ ruò shuō ：『 yē hé huá suǒ wèi céng fēn fù de huà ， wǒ men zěn néng zhī dào ne ？』

You may say in your heart, “How shall we know the word which the LORD has not spoken?”

先知託耶和華的名說話，所說的若不成就，也無效驗，這就是耶和華所未曾吩咐的，是那先知擅自說的，你不要怕他。」

xiān zhī tuō yē hé huá de míng shuō huà ， suǒ shuō de ruò bù chéng jiù ， yě wú xiào yàn ， zhè jiù shì yē hé huá suǒ wèi céng fēn fù de ， shì nà xiān zhī shàn zì shuō de ， nǐ bú yào pà tā 。」

When a prophet speaks in the LORD’s name, if the thing doesn’t follow, nor happen, that is the thing which the LORD has not spoken. The prophet has spoken it presumptuously. You shall not be afraid of him.
