利16:1 亚伦的两个儿子走近耶和华面前而死亡以后，耶和华对摩西说：
利16:1 And the Lord said to Moses, after the death of the two sons of Aaron when they took in strange fire before the Lord and death overtook them;
利16:2 “你要告诉你的哥哥亚伦，不可随时进入圣所的幔子里面，到约柜上的施恩座，免得他死亡，因为我在施恩座上的彩云中显现。
利16:2 The Lord said to Moses, Say to Aaron, your brother, that he may not come at all times into the holy place inside the veil, before the cover which is on the ark, for fear that death may overtake him; for I will be seen in the cloud on the cover of the ark.
利16:3 亚伦进入圣所时要带一头公牛犊作赎罪祭，一只公绵羊作燔祭。
利16:3 Let Aaron come into the holy place in this way: with an ox for a sin-offering and a male sheep for a burned offering.
利16:4 他要穿上细麻布的圣内袍，也要把细麻布的裤子穿在身上，腰束细麻布的带子，头戴细麻布礼冠；这些就是圣衣。他要先用水洗身，然后才穿上圣衣。
利16:4 Let him put on the holy linen coat, and the linen trousers on his body, and the linen band round him, and the linen head-dress on his head; for this is holy clothing, and before he puts them on his body is to be washed with water.
利16:5 他要从以色列的会众中，取两只公山羊作赎罪祭，一只公绵羊作燔祭。
利16:5 And let him take from the children of Israel two he-goats for a sin-offering and one male sheep for a burned offering.
利16:6 亚伦为自己的罪献上作赎罪祭的公牛，为自己和家人赎罪，
利16:6 And Aaron is to give the ox of the sin-offering for himself, to make himself and his house free from sin.
利16:7 然后把两只公山羊牵来，放在会幕门口，耶和华的面前；
利16:7 And he is to take the two goats and put them before the Lord at the door of the Tent of meeting.
利16:8 亚伦要为这两只山羊抽签：一签归耶和华，另一签归阿撒泻勒（“阿撒泻勒”是希伯来文音译，这字原意不能确定）。
利16:8 And Aaron will make selection from the two goats by the decision of the Lord, one goat for the Lord and one for Azazel.
利16:9 亚伦要把那抽签归耶和华的山羊，献作赎罪祭。
利16:9 And the goat which is marked out for the Lord, let Aaron give for a sin-offering.
利16:10 至于那抽签归阿撒泻勒的山羊，却要活活地摆在耶和华面前，用来赎罪，然后叫人把牠送到旷野，归阿撒泻勒。
利16:10 But the goat for Azazel is to be placed living before the Lord, for the taking away of sin, that it may be sent away for Azazel into the waste land.
利16:11 “亚伦要先为自己献上作赎罪祭的公牛，为自己和家人赎罪，他要把那为自己作赎罪祭的公牛宰杀。
利16:11 And Aaron is to give the ox of the sin-offering for himself and take away sin from himself and his house, and put to death the ox of the sin-offering which is for himself.
利16:12 从耶和华面前的祭坛上，拿一个盛满火炭的香炉，又拿一捧捣细的芬芳香料，带进幔子里，
利16:12 And he is to take a vessel full of burning coal from the altar before the Lord and in his hand some sweet perfume crushed small, and take it inside the veil;
利16:13 在耶和华面前把香放在火上，使香的烟云遮掩约柜上的施恩座，免得他死亡。
利16:13 And let him put the perfume on the fire before the Lord so that the ark may be covered with a cloud of the smoke of the perfume, in order that death may not overtake him.
利16:14 他要取些公牛的血，用指头弹在施恩座的东面，再用指头在施恩座的前面，弹血七次。
利16:14 And let him take some of the blood of the ox, shaking drops of it from his finger on the cover of the ark on the east side, and before it, seven times.
利16:15 “然后他要宰杀那为人民作赎罪祭的公山羊，把血带进幔子里，弹羊血在施恩座的上面和施恩座的前面，好像弹公牛的血一样。
利16:15 Then let him put to death the goat of the sin-offering for the people, and take its blood inside the veil and do with it as he did with the blood of the ox, shaking drops of it on and before the cover of the ark.
利16:16 他要为圣所赎罪，使圣所脱离以色列人的不洁和他们的过犯，就是他们的一切罪孽。然后他又要为会幕同样的赎罪。因为会幕和他们在一起，在他们的不洁中间。
利16:16 And let him make the holy place free from whatever is unclean among the children of Israel and from their wrongdoing in all their sins; and let him do the same for the Tent of meeting, which has its place among an unclean people.
利16:17 他进入至圣所赎罪的时候，会幕里不可有人；直到他为自己和家人，以及以色列全体会众，赎了罪出来为止。
利16:17 And no man may be in the Tent of meeting from the time when Aaron goes in to take away sin in the holy place till he comes out, having made himself and his house and all the people of Israel free from sin.
利16:18 他出来，就到耶和华面前的祭坛那里，为坛赎罪。他要取一点公牛的血和山羊的血，抹祭坛的四角。
利16:18 And he is to go out to the altar which is before the Lord and make it free from sin; and he is to take some of the blood of the ox and the blood of the goat and put it on the horns of the altar and round it;
利16:19 又用指头向祭坛弹血七次，洁净祭坛，使它分别为圣，脱离以色列人的不洁。
利16:19 Shaking drops of the blood from his finger on it seven times to make it holy and clean from whatever is unclean among the children of Israel.
利16:20 “亚伦为圣所、会幕和祭坛赎了罪以后，就要把那只活山羊献上。
利16:20 And when he has done whatever is necessary to make the holy place and the Tent of meeting and the altar free from sin, let him put the living goat before the Lord;
利16:21 亚伦两手按在那只活山羊头上，承认以色列人的一切罪孽和他们的过犯，就是他们一切罪孽。把它们都归在那山羊的头上；然后经由已预定的人，把羊送到旷野里去。
利16:21 And Aaron, placing his two hands on the head of the living goat, will make a public statement over him of all the evil doings of the children of Israel and all their wrongdoing, in all their sins; and he will put them on the head of the goat and send him away, in the care of a man who will be waiting there, into the waste land.
利16:22 那只山羊就担当他们的一切罪孽，把它们带到一个完全隔离的地；所以那人要把那只山羊送到旷野里去。
利16:22 And the goat will take all their sins into a land cut off from men, and he will send the goat away into the waste land.
利16:23 “亚伦要进会幕，把他进圣所时所穿的细麻布衣服脱下，放在那里。
利16:23 Then let Aaron come into the Tent of meeting and take off the linen clothing which he put on when he went into the holy place, and put them down there;
利16:24 然后在圣洁的地方用水洗身，穿回自己的衣服出来，把自己的燔祭和众民的燔祭献上，为自己和众民赎罪。
利16:24 And after bathing his body in water in a holy place, he is to put on his clothing and come out and give his burned offering and the burned offering of the people, to take away his sin and the sin of the people.
利16:25 赎罪祭牲的脂肪，他要焚烧在祭坛上。
利16:25 And the fat of the sin-offering is to be burned by him on the altar.
利16:26 那送走归阿撒泻勒的山羊的人，要洗净自己的衣服，用水洗身，然后才可以进到营里。
利16:26 And the man who takes away the goat for Azazel is to have his clothing washed and his body bathed in water and then he may come back to the tent-circle.
利16:27 那作赎罪祭的公牛和作赎罪祭的公山羊，牠们的血既然被带进去为圣所赎罪，牠们的身体就要搬出营外去；牠们的皮、肉和粪都要用火烧掉。
利16:27 And the ox of the sin-offering and the goat of the sin-offering, whose blood was taken in to make the holy place free from sin, are to be taken away outside the tent-circle and their skins and their flesh and their waste are to be burned with fire.
利16:28 那烧祭牲的人要洗净自己的衣服，用水洗身，然后才可以进营。
利16:28 And the man by whom they are burned is to have his clothing washed and his body bathed in water, and then he may come back to the tent-circle.
利16:29 “每逢七月十日，你们要刻苦己心，无论是本地人，或是寄居在你们中间的外人，什么的工，你们都不可作，这要作你们永远的律例。
利16:29 And let this be an order to you for ever: in the seventh month, on the tenth day, you are to keep yourselves from pleasure and do no sort of work, those who are Israelites by birth and those from other lands who are living among you:
利16:30 因为在这一天，他要为你们赎罪，使你们洁净，脱离你们一切罪孽，使你们在耶和华面前成为洁净。
利16:30 For on this day your sin will be taken away and you will be clean: you will be made free from all your sins before the Lord.
利16:31 这是完全休歇的安息，你们要刻苦己心。这是永远的律例。
利16:31 It is a special Sabbath for you, and you are to keep yourselves from pleasure; it is an order for ever.
利16:32 那被膏立，承受圣职，接替他父亲作祭司的，要穿上细麻布衣服，就是圣洁的衣服，进行赎罪。
利16:32 And the man on whose head the holy oil has been put, and who has been marked out to be a priest in his father's place, will do what is necessary to take away sin, and will put on the linen clothing, even the holy robes:
利16:33 他要为至圣所赎罪，又为会幕和祭坛赎罪，以及为祭司们和全体会众赎罪。
利16:33 And he will make the holy place and the Tent of meeting and the altar free from sin; he will take away sin from the priests and from all the people.
利16:34 每年一次，要因以色列人一切的罪，为他们赎罪。这是你们永远的律例。”于是亚伦照着耶和华吩咐摩西的去行。
利16:34 And let this be an order for ever for you, so that the sin of the children of Israel may be taken away once every year. And he did as the Lord gave orders to Moses.
