申命記-Deuteronomy 第 14 章

14:1你們是耶和華你們神的兒女;不可為死人用刀劃傷自己,也不可將額上剃光。
You are the children of Jehovah your God; you shall not cut yourselves nor shave your forehead for the dead.
14:2因為你是歸耶和華你神的聖別子民;耶和華從地上的萬民中揀選了你,作祂自己的珍寶,作祂的子民。
For you are a holy people to Jehovah your God, and Jehovah has chosen you to be a people for His personal treasure, from among all the peoples which are upon the face of the earth.
14:3凡可憎的物,你都不可吃。
You shall not eat any abominable thing.
14:4你們可以吃的牲畜乃是這些:牛、綿羊、山羊、
These are the animals which you may eat: the ox, the sheep, and the goat;
14:5鹿、羚羊、?子、野山羊、麋鹿、黃羊、青羊。
The deer, the gazelle, the roebuck, the wild goat, the ibex, the antelope, the mountain sheep.
14:6凡分蹄,就是蹄裂兩瓣,並且反芻的走獸,你們都可以吃。
And every animal that has a divided hoof, that is, has its hoof split in two, and that chews the cud among the animals, that you may eat.
14:7但那反芻或裂蹄之中不可吃的乃是這些:駱駝、兔子、石獾,因為反芻卻不分蹄,對你們就不潔淨;
However, these you shall not eat of those that chew the cud or of those that have a cleft hoof: the camel, the hare, and the hyrax; because although they chew the cud, they do not have a divided hoof; they are unclean to you.
14:8豬,因為分蹄卻不反芻,對你們就不潔淨。這些獸的肉,你們不可吃;牠們的屍體,你們不可觸摸。
And the pig, because although it has a divided hoof, it does not chew the cud; it is unclean to you. You shall not eat of their flesh, nor shall you touch their carcasses.
14:9水中可以吃的乃是這些:凡有鰭有鱗的,你們都可以吃;
These you may eat of all that are in the water: Anything that has fins and scales you may eat,
14:10凡無鰭無鱗的,你們都不可吃,對你們是不潔淨的。
But anything that does not have fins and scales you shall not eat; it is unclean to you.
14:11凡潔淨的鳥,你們都可以吃。
You may eat any clean bird.
14:12不可吃的乃是這些:雕、狗頭雕、紅頭雕、
But these are what you shall not eat: the great vulture, the bearded vulture, and the black vulture;
14:13鳶、隼、鷂鷹與其類,
The kite, the falcon, and the kite of every kind;
14:14烏鴉與其類,
And all ravens of every kind;
14:15鴕鳥、夜鷹、海鷗、鷹與其類,
The ostrich, the nighthawk, the sea gull, and the hawk of every kind;
14:16鴟鴞、貓頭鷹、叫鴞、
The little owl, the great owl, the white owl,
14:17鵜鶘、禿雕、鸕鶿、
The pelican, the carrion vulture, the cormorant,
14:18鸛、鷺鷥與其類,戴勝與蝙蝠。
The stork, the heron of every kind, the hoopoe, and the bat.
14:19凡能飛的昆蟲,對你們是不潔淨的,都不可吃。
And all flying insects are unclean to you; they shall not be eaten.
14:20凡潔淨的飛禽,你們都可以吃。
You may eat any clean flying animal.
14:21凡自死的,你們都不可吃,可以給你城裏寄居的吃,或賣與外人,因為你是歸耶和華你神的聖別子民。不可用山羊羔母的奶煮山羊羔。
You shall not eat any carcass; to the sojourner who is within your gates you may give it that he may eat it; or you may sell it to a foreigner. For you are a holy people to Jehovah your God. You shall not boil a kid in its mother's milk.
14:22你每年要把你撒種所產的,就是你田地所出的,十分取一分;
You must give a tenth of all the produce of your seed, which the field brings forth, year by year.
14:23要在耶和華你神麵前,在祂所選擇給祂名居住的地方,吃你五穀、新酒、和新油的十分之一,並牛群羊群中頭生的;這樣,你可以學習時常敬畏耶和華你的神。
And you shall eat before Jehovah your God, in the place where He will choose to cause His name to dwell, the tithe of your grain, of your new wine, and of your fresh oil and the firstborn of your herd and flock, that you may learn to fear Jehovah your God always.
14:24當耶和華你神賜福與你的時候,耶和華你神所選擇要立祂名的地方,若離你太遠,那路也太長,使你不能把十分取一之物帶去,
But if the way is so far away from you that you are not able to carry your tithe, because the place where Jehovah your God will choose to set His name is too far away from you when Jehovah your God has blessed you,
14:25你就可以換成銀子,將銀子包起來,拿在手中,往耶和華你神所要選擇的地方去。
Then you shall exchange it for money and bind up the money in your hand, and you shall go to the place which Jehovah your God will choose.
14:26你用這銀子,隨心所欲,或買牛羊,或買淡酒濃酒,凡你心所想的都可以買;你和你的家屬可以在那裏,在耶和華你神的麵前吃喝快樂。
And you shall exchange the money for anything that your soul desires, for oxen, for sheep, for wine, for strong drink, or for anything that your soul would like; and you and your household shall eat there before Jehovah your God and rejoice.
14:27你不可撇棄在你城裏的利未人,因為他在你們那裏無分無業。
But you shall not forsake the Levite who is within your gates, for he has no portion nor inheritance with you.
14:28每逢三年的末了,你要將當年出產的十分之一都取出來,積存在你的城內。
At the end of every three years you shall bring forth all the tithe of your produce for that year and lay it within your gates;
14:29在你那裏無分無業的利未人,和你城裏寄居的,並孤兒寡婦,都可以來,吃得飽足;這樣,耶和華你的神必在你手所作的一切事上,賜福與你。
And the Levite shall come-for he has no portion nor inheritance with you-as well as the sojourner and the orphan and the widow who are within your gates; and they shall eat and be satisfied, so that Jehovah your God may bless you in all the work of your hand which you do.
