¹ 亚伦的儿子拿答、亚比户各拿自己的香炉，盛上火，加上香，在耶和华面前献上凡火，是耶和华没有吩咐他们的，

² 就有火从耶和华面前出来，把他们烧灭，他们就死在耶和华面前。

³ 於是摩西对亚伦说：这就是耶和华所说：我在亲近我的人中要显为圣；在众民面前，我要得荣耀。亚伦就默默不言。

⁴ 摩西召了亚伦叔父乌薛的儿子米沙利、以利撒反来，对他们说：上前来，把你们的亲属从圣所前抬到营外。

⁵ 於是二人上前来，把他们穿着袍子抬到营外，是照摩西所吩咐的。

⁶ 摩西对亚伦和他儿子以利亚撒、以他玛说：不可蓬头散发，也不可撕裂衣裳，免得你们死亡，又免得耶和华向会众发怒；只要你们的弟兄以色列全家为耶和华所发的火哀哭。

⁷ 你们也不可出会幕的门，恐怕你们死亡，因为耶和华的膏油在你们的身上。他们就照摩西的话行了。

⁸ 耶和华晓谕亚伦说：

⁹ 你和你儿子进会幕的时候，清酒、浓酒都不可喝，免得你们死亡；这要作你们世世代代永远的定例。

¹⁰ 使你们可以将圣的、俗的，洁净的、不洁净的，分别出来；

¹¹ 又使你们可以将耶和华藉摩西晓谕以色列人的一切律例教训他们。

¹² 摩西对亚伦和他剩下的儿子以利亚撒、以他玛说：你们献给耶和华火祭中所剩的素祭，要在坛旁不带酵而吃，因为是至圣的。

¹³ 你们要在圣处吃；因为在献给耶和华的火祭中，这是你的分和你儿子的分；所吩咐我的本是这样。

¹⁴ 所摇的胸，所举的腿，你们要在洁净地方吃。你和你的儿女都要同吃；因为这些是从以色列人平安祭中给你，当你的分和你儿子的分。

¹⁵ 所举的腿，所摇的胸，他们要与火祭的脂油一同带来当摇祭，在耶和华面前摇一摇；这要归你和你儿子，当作永得的分，都是照耶和华所吩咐的。

¹⁶ 当下摩西急切的寻找作赎罪祭的公山羊，谁知已经焚烧了，便向亚伦剩下的儿子以利亚撒、以他玛发怒，说：

¹⁷ 这赎罪祭既是至圣的，主又给了你们，为要你们担当会众的罪孽，在耶和华面前为他们赎罪，你们为何没有在圣所吃呢？

¹⁸ 看哪，这祭牲的血并没有拿到圣所里去，你们本当照我所吩咐的，在圣所里吃这祭肉。

¹⁹ 亚伦对摩西说：今天他们在耶和华面前献上赎罪祭和燔祭，我又遇见这样的灾，若今天吃了赎罪祭，耶和华岂能看为美呢？

²⁰ 摩西听见这话，便以为美。

¹ After this, I saw four angels standing at the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth, so that no wind would blow on the earth, or on the sea, or on any tree.

² I saw another angel ascend from the sunrise, having the seal of the living God. He cried with a loud voice to the four angels to whom it was given to harm the earth and the sea,

³ saying, "Don't harm the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, until we have sealed the bondservants of our God on their foreheads!"

⁴ I heard the number of those who were sealed, one hundred forty-four thousand, sealed out of every tribe of the children of Israel:

⁵ of the tribe of Judah were sealed twelve thousand, of the tribe of Reuben twelve thousand, of the tribe of Gad twelve thousand,

⁶ of the tribe of Asher twelve thousand, of the tribe of Naphtali twelve thousand, of the tribe of Manasseh twelve thousand,

⁷ of the tribe of Simeon twelve thousand, of the tribe of Levi twelve thousand, of the tribe of Issachar twelve thousand,

⁸ of the tribe of Zebulun twelve thousand, of the tribe of Joseph twelve thousand, of the tribe of Benjamin were sealed twelve thousand.

⁹ After these things I looked, and behold, a great multitude, which no man could number, out of every nation and of all tribes, peoples, and languages, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, dressed in white robes, with palm branches in their hands.

¹⁰ They cried with a loud voice, saying, "Salvation be to our God, who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb!"

¹¹ All the angels were standing around the throne, the elders, and the four living creatures; and they fell on their faces before his throne, and worshiped God,

¹² saying, "Amen! Blessing, glory, wisdom, thanksgiving, honor, power, and might, be to our God forever and ever! Amen."

¹³ One of the elders answered, saying to me, "These who are arrayed in white robes, who are they, and from where did they come?"

¹⁴ I told him, "My lord, you know." He said to me, "These are those who came out of the great tribulation. They washed their robes, and made them white in the Lamb's blood.

¹⁵ Therefore they are before the throne of God, they serve him day and night in his temple. He who sits on the throne will spread his tabernacle over them.

¹⁶ They will never be hungry, neither thirsty any more; neither will the sun beat on them, nor any heat;

¹⁷ for the Lamb who is in the midst of the throne shepherds them, and leads them to springs of waters of life. And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes."
