民數記 16
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
World English Bible
1利未 的曾孫、 哥轄 的孫子、 以斯哈 的兒子 可拉 ，和 呂便 子孫中 以利押 的兒子 大坍 、 亞比蘭 ，與 比勒 的兒子 安 ，
1Now Korah, the son of Izhar, the son of Kohath, the son of Levi, with Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, and On, the son of Peleth, sons of Reuben, took some men.
2並 以色列 會中的二百五十個首領，就是有名望選入會中的人，在 摩西 面前一同起來，
2They rose up before Moses, with some of the children of Israel, two hundred fifty princes of the congregation, called to the assembly, men of renown.
3聚集攻擊 摩西 、 亞倫 ，說：「你們擅自專權！全會眾個個既是聖潔，耶和華也在他們中間，你們為甚麼自高，超過耶和華的會眾呢？」
3They assembled themselves together against Moses and against Aaron, and said to them, “You take too much on yourself, since all the congregation are holy, everyone of them, and the LORD is among them! Why do you lift yourselves up above the LORD’s assembly?”
4摩西 聽見這話就俯伏在地，
4When Moses heard it, he fell on his face.
5對 可拉 和他一黨的人說：「到了早晨，耶和華必指示誰是屬他的，誰是聖潔的，就叫誰親近他；他所揀選的是誰，必叫誰親近他。
5He said to Korah and to all his company, “In the morning, the LORD will show who are his, and who is holy, and will cause him to come near to him. Even him whom he shall choose, he will cause to come near to him.
6可拉 啊，你們要這樣行，你和你的一黨要拿香爐來。
6Do this: have Korah and all his company take censers,
7明日，在耶和華面前，把火盛在爐中，把香放在其上。耶和華揀選誰，誰就為聖潔。你們這 利未 的子孫擅自專權了！」
7put fire in them, and put incense on them before the LORD tomorrow. It shall be that the man whom the LORD chooses, he shall be holy. You have gone too far, you sons of Levi!”
8摩西 又對 可拉 說：「 利未 的子孫哪，你們聽我說！
8Moses said to Korah, “Hear now, you sons of Levi!
9以色列 的上帝從 以色列 會中將你們分別出來，使你們親近他，辦耶和華帳幕的事，並站在會眾面前替他們當差。
9Is it a small thing to you that the God of Israel has separated you from the congregation of Israel, to bring you near to himself, to do the service of the LORD’s tabernacle, and to stand before the congregation to minister to them;
10耶和華又使你和你一切弟兄－ 利未 的子孫－一同親近他，這豈為小事？你們還要求祭司的職任嗎？
10and that he has brought you near, and all your brothers the sons of Levi with you? Do you seek the priesthood also?
11你和你一黨的人聚集是要攻擊耶和華。 亞倫 算甚麼，你們竟向他發怨言呢？」
11Therefore you and all your company have gathered together against the LORD! What is Aaron that you complain against him?”
12摩西 打發人去召 以利押 的兒子 大坍 、 亞比蘭 。他們說：「我們不上去！
12Moses sent to call Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab; and they said, “We won’t come up!
13你將我們從流奶與蜜之地領上來，要在曠野殺我們，這豈為小事？你還要自立為王轄管我們嗎？
13Is it a small thing that you have brought us up out of a land flowing with milk and honey, to kill us in the wilderness, but you must also make yourself a prince over us?
14並且你沒有將我們領到流奶與蜜之地，也沒有把田地和葡萄園給我們為業。難道你要剜這些人的眼睛嗎？我們不上去！」
14Moreover you haven’t brought us into a land flowing with milk and honey, nor given us inheritance of fields and vineyards. Will you put out the eyes of these men? We won’t come up.”
15摩西 就甚發怒，對耶和華說：「求你不要享受他們的供物。我並沒有奪過他們一匹驢，也沒有害過他們一個人。」
15Moses was very angry, and said to the LORD, “Don’t respect their offering. I have not taken one donkey from them, neither have I hurt one of them.”
16摩西 對 可拉 說：「明天，你和你一黨的人，並 亞倫 ，都要站在耶和華面前；
16Moses said to Korah, “You and all your company go before the LORD, you, and they, and Aaron, tomorrow.
17各人要拿一個香爐，共二百五十個，把香放在上面，到耶和華面前。你和 亞倫 也各拿自己的香爐。」
17Each man take his censer and put incense on it, and each man bring before the LORD his censer, two hundred fifty censers; you also, and Aaron, each with his censer.”
18於是他們各人拿一個香爐，盛上火，加上香，同 摩西 、 亞倫 站在會幕門前。
18They each took his censer, and put fire in it, and laid incense on it, and stood at the door of the Tent of Meeting with Moses and Aaron.
19可拉 招聚全會眾到會幕門前，要攻擊 摩西 、 亞倫 ；耶和華的榮光就向全會眾顯現。
19Korah assembled all the congregation opposite them to the door of the Tent of Meeting. The LORD’s glory appeared to all the congregation.
20耶和華曉諭 摩西 、 亞倫 說：
20The LORD spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
21「你們離開這會眾，我好在轉眼之間把他們滅絕。」
21“Separate yourselves from among this congregation, that I may consume them in a moment!”
22摩西 、 亞倫 就俯伏在地，說：「上帝，萬人之靈的上帝啊，一人犯罪，你就要向全會眾發怒嗎？」
22They fell on their faces, and said, “God, the God of the spirits of all flesh, shall one man sin, and will you be angry with all the congregation?”
23耶和華曉諭 摩西 說：
23The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
24「你吩咐會眾說：『你們離開 可拉 、 大坍 、 亞比蘭 帳棚的四圍。』」
24“Speak to the congregation, saying, ‘Get away from around the tent of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram!’”
25摩西 起來，往 大坍 、 亞比蘭 那裏去； 以色列 的長老也隨着他去。
25Moses rose up and went to Dathan and Abiram; and the elders of Israel followed him.
26他吩咐會眾說：「你們離開這惡人的帳棚吧，他們的物件，甚麼都不可摸，恐怕你們陷在他們的罪中，與他們一同消滅。」
26He spoke to the congregation, saying, “Depart, please, from the tents of these wicked men, and touch nothing of theirs, lest you be consumed in all their sins!”
27於是眾人離開 可拉 、 大坍 、 亞比蘭 帳棚的四圍。 大坍 、 亞比蘭 帶着妻子、兒女、小孩子，都出來，站在自己的帳棚門口。
27So they went away from the tent of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram, on every side. Dathan and Abiram came out, and stood at the door of their tents with their wives, their sons, and their little ones.
28摩西 說：「我行的這一切事本不是憑我自己心意行的，乃是耶和華打發我行的，必有證據使你們知道。
28Moses said, “Hereby you shall know that the LORD has sent me to do all these works; for they are not from my own mind.
29這些人死若與世人無異，或是他們所遭的與世人相同，就不是耶和華打發我來的。
29If these men die the common death of all men, or if they experience what all men experience, then the LORD hasn’t sent me.
30倘若耶和華創作一件新事，使地開口，把他們和一切屬他們的都吞下去，叫他們活活地墜落陰間，你們就明白這些人是藐視耶和華了。」
30But if the LORD makes a new thing, and the ground opens its mouth, and swallows them up with all that belong to them, and they go down alive into Sheol, then you shall understand that these men have despised the LORD.”
31摩西 剛說完了這一切話，他們腳下的地就開了口，
31As he finished speaking all these words, the ground that was under them split apart.
32把他們和他們的家眷，並一切屬 可拉 的人丁、財物，都吞下去。
32The earth opened its mouth and swallowed them up with their households, all of Korah’s men, and all their goods.
33這樣，他們和一切屬他們的，都活活地墜落陰間；地口在他們上頭照舊合閉，他們就從會中滅亡。
33So they, and all that belonged to them went down alive into Sheol. The earth closed on them, and they perished from among the assembly.
34在他們四圍的 以色列 眾人聽他們呼號，就都逃跑，說：「恐怕地也把我們吞下去。」
34All Israel that were around them fled at their cry; for they said, “Lest the earth swallow us up!”
35又有火從耶和華那裏出來，燒滅了那獻香的二百五十個人。
35Fire came out from the LORD, and devoured the two hundred fifty men who offered the incense.
36耶和華曉諭 摩西 說：
36The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
37「你吩咐祭司 亞倫 的兒子 以利亞撒 從火中撿起那些香爐來，把火撒在別處，因為那些香爐是聖的。
37“Speak to Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest, that he take up the censers out of the burning, and scatter the fire away from the camp; for they are holy,
38把那些犯罪、自害己命之人的香爐，叫人錘成片子，用以包壇。那些香爐本是他們在耶和華面前獻過的，所以是聖的，並且可以給 以色列 人作記號。」
38even the censers of those who sinned against their own lives. Let them be beaten into plates for a covering of the altar, for they offered them before the LORD. Therefore they are holy. They shall be a sign to the children of Israel.”
39於是祭司 以利亞撒 將被燒之人所獻的銅香爐拿來，人就錘出來，用以包壇，
39Eleazar the priest took the bronze censers which those who were burned had offered; and they beat them out for a covering of the altar,
40給 以色列 人作紀念，使 亞倫 後裔之外的人不得近前來在耶和華面前燒香，免得他遭 可拉 和他一黨所遭的。這乃是照耶和華藉着 摩西 所吩咐的。
40to be a memorial to the children of Israel, to the end that no stranger who isn’t of the offspring of Aaron, would come near to burn incense before the LORD, that he not be as Korah and as his company; as the LORD spoke to him by Moses.
41第二天， 以色列 全會眾都向 摩西 、 亞倫 發怨言說：「你們殺了耶和華的百姓了。」
41But on the next day all the congregation of the children of Israel complained against Moses and against Aaron, saying, “You have killed the LORD’s people!”
42會眾聚集攻擊 摩西 、 亞倫 的時候，向會幕觀看，不料，有雲彩遮蓋了，耶和華的榮光顯現。
42When the congregation was assembled against Moses and against Aaron, they looked toward the Tent of Meeting. Behold, the cloud covered it, and the LORD’s glory appeared.
43摩西 、 亞倫 就來到會幕前。
43Moses and Aaron came to the front of the Tent of Meeting.
44耶和華吩咐 摩西 說：
44The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
45「你們離開這會眾，我好在轉眼之間把他們滅絕。」他們二人就俯伏於地。
45“Get away from among this congregation, that I may consume them in a moment!” They fell on their faces.
46摩西 對 亞倫 說：「拿你的香爐，把壇上的火盛在其中，又加上香，快快帶到會眾那裏，為他們贖罪；因為有忿怒從耶和華那裏出來，瘟疫已經發作了。」
46Moses said to Aaron, “Take your censer, put fire from the altar in it, lay incense on it, carry it quickly to the congregation, and make atonement for them; for wrath has gone out from the LORD! The plague has begun.”
47亞倫 照着 摩西 所說的拿來，跑到會中，不料，瘟疫在百姓中已經發作了。他就加上香，為百姓贖罪。
47Aaron did as Moses said, and ran into the middle of the assembly. The plague had already begun among the people. He put on the incense, and made atonement for the people.
48他站在活人死人中間，瘟疫就止住了。
48He stood between the dead and the living; and the plague was stayed.
49除了因 可拉 事情死的以外，遭瘟疫死的，共有一萬四千七百人。
49Now those who died by the plague were fourteen thousand seven hundred, in addition to those who died about the matter of Korah.
50亞倫 回到會幕門口，到 摩西 那裏，瘟疫已經止住了。
50Aaron returned to Moses to the door of the Tent of Meeting, and the plague was stopped.
