¹ 耶和华晓谕摩西说：

² 你将亚伦和他儿子一同带来，并将圣衣、膏油，与赎罪祭的一只公牛、两只公绵羊、一筐无酵饼都带来，

³ 又招聚会众到会幕门口。

⁴ 摩西就照耶和华所吩咐的行了；於是会众聚集在会幕门口。

⁵ 摩西告诉会众说：这就是耶和华所吩咐当行的事。

⁶ 摩西带了亚伦和他儿子来，用水洗了他们。

⁷ 给亚伦穿上内袍，束上腰带，穿上外袍，又加上以弗得，用其上巧工织的带子把以弗得系在他身上，

⁸ 又给他戴上胸牌，把乌陵和土明放在胸牌内，

⁹ 把冠冕戴在他头上，在冠冕的前面钉上金牌，就是圣冠，都是照耶和华所吩咐摩西的。

¹⁰ 摩西用膏油抹帐幕和其中所有的，使他成圣；

¹¹ 又用膏油在坛上弹了七次，又抹了坛和坛的一切器皿，并洗濯盆和盆座，使他成圣；

¹² 又把膏油倒在亚伦的头上膏他，使他成圣。

¹³ 摩西带了亚伦的儿子来，给他们穿上内袍，束上腰带，包上裹头巾，都是照耶和华所吩咐摩西的。

¹⁴ 他牵了赎罪祭的公牛来，亚伦和他儿子按手在赎罪祭公牛的头上，

¹⁵ 就宰了公牛。摩西用指头蘸血，抹在坛上四角的周围，使坛洁净，把血倒在坛的脚那里，使坛成圣，坛就洁净了；

¹⁶ 又取脏上所有的脂油和肝上的网子，并两个腰子与腰子上的脂油，都烧在坛上；

¹⁷ 惟有公牛，连皮带肉并粪，用火烧在营外，都是照耶和华所吩咐摩西的。

¹⁸ 他奉上燔祭的公绵羊；亚伦和他儿子按手在羊的头上，

¹⁹ 就宰了公羊。摩西把血洒在坛的周围，

²⁰ 把羊切成块子，把头和肉块并脂油都烧了。

²¹ 用水洗了脏腑和腿，就把全羊烧在坛上为馨香的燔祭，是献给耶和华的火祭，都是照耶和华所吩咐摩西的。

²² 他又奉上第二只公绵羊，就是承接圣职之礼的羊；亚伦和他儿子按手在羊的头上，

²³ 就宰了羊。摩西把些血抹在亚伦的右耳垂上和右手的大拇指上，并右脚的大拇指上，

²⁴ 又带了亚伦的儿子来，把些血抹在他们的右耳垂上和右手的大拇指上，并右脚的大拇指上，又把血洒在坛的周围。

²⁵ 取脂油和肥尾巴，并脏上一切的脂油与肝上的网子，两个腰子和腰子上的脂油，并右腿，

²⁶ 再从耶和华面前、盛无酵饼的筐子里取出一个无酵饼，一个油饼，一个薄饼，都放在脂油和右腿上，

²⁷ 把这一切放在亚伦的手上和他儿子的手上作摇祭，在耶和华面前摇一摇。

²⁸ 摩西从他们的手上拿下来，烧在坛上的燔祭上，都是为承接圣职献给耶和华馨香的火祭。

²⁹ 摩西拿羊的胸作为摇祭，在耶和华面前摇一摇，是承接圣职之礼，归摩西的分，都是照耶和华所吩咐摩西的。

³⁰ 摩西取点膏油和坛上的血，弹在亚伦和他的衣服上，并他儿子和他儿子的衣服上，使他和他们的衣服一同成圣。

³¹ 摩西对亚伦和他儿子说：把肉煮在会幕门口，在那里吃，又吃承接圣职筐子里的饼，按我所吩咐的说（或作：按所吩咐我的说）：这是亚伦和他儿子要吃的。

³² 剩下的肉和饼，你们要用火焚烧。

³³ 你们七天不可出会幕的门，等到你们承接圣职的日子满了，因为主叫你们七天承接圣职。

³⁴ 像今天所行的都是耶和华吩咐行的，为你们赎罪。

³⁵ 七天你们要昼夜住在会幕门口，遵守耶和华的吩咐，免得你们死亡，因为所吩咐我的就是这样。

³⁶ 於是亚伦和他儿子行了耶和华藉着摩西所吩咐的一切事。

¹ The word that came to Jeremiah concerning all the Jews who lived in the land of Egypt, who lived at Migdol, and at Tahpanhes, and at Memphis, and in the country of Pathros, saying,

² Thus says Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel: You have seen all the evil that I have brought on Jerusalem, and on all the cities of Judah; and behold, this day they are a desolation, and no man dwells therein,

³ because of their wickedness which they have committed to provoke me to anger, in that they went to burn incense, [and] to serve other gods, that they didn't know, neither they, nor you, nor your fathers.

⁴ However I sent to you all my servants the prophets, rising up early and sending them, saying, Oh, don't do this abominable thing that I hate.

⁵ But they didn't listen, nor inclined their ear to turn from their wickedness, to burn no incense to other gods.

⁶ Therefore my wrath and my anger was poured forth, and was kindled in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem; and they are wasted and desolate, as it is this day.

⁷ Therefore now thus says Yahweh, the God of Armies, the God of Israel: Why do you commit great evil against your own souls, to cut off from yourselves man and woman, infant and nursing child out of the midst of Judah, to leave yourselves none remaining;

⁸ in that you provoke me to anger with the works of your hands, burning incense to other gods in the land of Egypt, where you have gone to live; that you may be cut off, and that you may be a curse and a reproach among all the nations of the earth?

⁹ Have you forgotten the wickedness of your fathers, and the wickedness of the kings of Judah, and the wickedness of their wives, and your own wickedness, and the wickedness of your wives which they committed in the land of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem?

¹⁰ They are not humbled even to this day, neither have they feared, nor walked in my law, nor in my statutes, that I set before you and before your fathers.

¹¹ Therefore thus says Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel: Behold, I will set my face against you for evil, even to cut off all Judah.

¹² I will take the remnant of Judah, that have set their faces to go into the land of Egypt to live there, and they shall all be consumed; in the land of Egypt shall they fall; they shall be consumed by the sword and by the famine; they shall die, from the least even to the greatest, by the sword and by the famine; and they shall be an object of horror, [and] an astonishment, and a curse, and a reproach.

¹³ For I will punish those who dwell in the land of Egypt, as I have punished Jerusalem, by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence;

¹⁴ so that none of the remnant of Judah, who have gone into the land of Egypt to live there, shall escape or be left, to return into the land of Judah, to which they have a desire to return to dwell there: for none shall return save such as shall escape.

¹⁵ Then all the men who knew that their wives burned incense to other gods, and all the women who stood by, a great assembly, even all the people who lived in the land of Egypt, in Pathros, answered Jeremiah, saying,

¹⁶ As for the word that you have spoken to us in the name of Yahweh, we will not listen to you.

¹⁷ But we will certainly perform every word that is gone forth out of our mouth, to burn incense to the queen of the sky, and to pour out drink offerings to her, as we have done, we and our fathers, our kings and our princes, in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem; for then had we plenty of food, and were well, and saw no evil.

¹⁸ But since we left off burning incense to the queen of the sky, and pouring out drink offerings to her, we have wanted all things, and have been consumed by the sword and by the famine.

¹⁹ When we burned incense to the queen of the sky, and poured out drink offerings to her, did we make her cakes to worship her, and pour out drink offerings to her, without our husbands?

²⁰ Then Jeremiah said to all the people, to the men, and to the women, even to all the people who had given him an answer, saying,

²¹ The incense that you burned in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem, you and your fathers, your kings and your princes, and the people of the land, didn't Yahweh remember them, and didn't it come into his mind?

²² so that Yahweh could no longer bear, because of the evil of your doings, and because of the abominations which you have committed; therefore your land has become a desolation, and an astonishment, and a curse, without inhabitant, as it is this day.

²³ Because you have burned incense, and because you have sinned against Yahweh, and have not obeyed the voice of Yahweh, nor walked in his law, nor in his statutes, nor in his testimonies; therefore this evil has happened to you, as it is this day.

²⁴ Moreover Jeremiah said to all the people, and to all the women, Hear the word of Yahweh, all Judah who are in the land of Egypt:

²⁵ Thus says Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel, saying, You and your wives have both spoken with your mouths, and with your hands have fulfilled it, saying, We will surely perform our vows that we have vowed, to burn incense to the queen of the sky, and to pour out drink offerings to her: establish then your vows, and perform your vows.

²⁶ Therefore hear the word of Yahweh, all Judah who dwell in the land of Egypt: Behold, I have sworn by my great name, says Yahweh, that my name shall no more be named in the mouth of any man of Judah in all the land of Egypt, saying, As the Lord Yahweh lives.

²⁷ Behold, I watch over them for evil, and not for good; and all the men of Judah who are in the land of Egypt shall be consumed by the sword and by the famine, until there be an end of them.

²⁸ Those who escape the sword shall return out of the land of Egypt into the land of Judah, few in number; and all the remnant of Judah, who have gone into the land of Egypt to live there, shall know whose word shall stand, mine, or theirs.

²⁹ This shall be the sign to you, says Yahweh, that I will punish you in this place, that you may know that my words shall surely stand against you for evil:

³⁰ Thus says Yahweh, Behold, I will give Pharaoh Hophra king of Egypt into the hand of his enemies, and into the hand of those who seek his life; as I gave Zedekiah king of Judah into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, who was his enemy, and sought his life.
