Exodus 28

1 “Next, have your brother Aaron brought to you from among the Israelites, along with his sons Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar, to serve Me as priests.

1 “你要从以色列民中把你的哥哥亚伦和他四个儿子拿答、亚比户、以利亚撒和以他玛带到你身边，立他们为祭司事奉我。

2 Make holy garments for your brother Aaron, to give him glory and splendor.

2 你要为你哥哥亚伦做圣衣，显明他职位的荣耀和尊贵。

3 You are to instruct all the skilled craftsmen, whom I have filled with a spirit of wisdom, to make garments for Aaron’s consecration, so that he may serve Me as priest.

3 你要吩咐所有我赋予智慧的巧手裁缝师为亚伦缝制衣服，使他分别出来，做圣洁的祭司事奉我。

4 These are the garments that they shall make: a breastpiece, an ephod, a robe, a woven tunic, a turban, and a sash. They are to make these holy garments for your brother Aaron and his sons, so that they may serve Me as priests.

4 他们要做的圣衣包括胸牌、以弗得、外袍、杂色的内袍、礼冠和腰带。要为你哥哥亚伦及其众子做这样的圣衣，好让他们做祭司事奉我。

5 They shall use gold, along with blue, purple, and scarlet yarn, and fine linen.

5 要用金线、细麻及蓝色、紫色、朱红色毛线制作圣衣。

6 They are to make the ephod of finely spun linen embroidered with gold, and with blue, purple, and scarlet yarn.

6 “以弗得要用金线、细麻及蓝色、紫色、朱红色毛线精工制作。

7 It shall have two shoulder pieces attached at two of its corners, so it can be fastened.

7 要在以弗得两边用两条肩带缝合起来。

8 And the skillfully woven waistband of the ephod must be of one piece, of the same workmanship—with gold, with blue, purple, and scarlet yarn, and with finely spun linen.

8 用金线、细麻及蓝色、紫色、朱红色毛线精工制作腰带，缝在以弗得上，连成一整件。

9 Take two onyx stones and engrave on them the names of the sons of Israel:

9 “你要拿两块红玛瑙，刻上以色列十二个儿子的名字，

10 six of their names on one stone and the remaining six on the other, in the order of their birth.

10 按他们的长幼次序，每一块宝石刻上六个名字。

11 Engrave the names of the sons of Israel on the two stones the way a gem cutter engraves a seal. Then mount the stones in gold filigree settings.

11 要用工匠刻图章的方法将他们的名字刻在两块宝石上，把宝石镶在两个金框里。

12 Fasten both stones on the shoulder pieces of the ephod as memorial stones for the sons of Israel. Aaron is to bear their names on his two shoulders as a memorial before the LORD.

12 然后将镶着金框的宝石缝在以弗得的两条肩带上，作以色列人的纪念石。亚伦要把他们的名字带在肩上，在耶和华面前作纪念。

13 Fashion gold filigree settings

13 要做两个金框，

14 and two chains of pure gold, made of braided cord work; and attach these chains to the settings.

14 并像搓绳子一样用纯金搓成两条金链，把链子连接在镶宝石的金框上。

15 You are also to make a breastpiece of judgment with the same workmanship as the ephod. Construct it with gold, with blue, purple, and scarlet yarn, and with finely spun linen.

15 “要精工制作一个用来明白上帝旨意的胸牌，制作的方法和造以弗得一样，用金线、细麻及蓝色、紫色、朱红色毛线制作。

16 It must be square when folded over double, a span long and a span wide.

16 胸牌是方形的，长宽各二十二厘米，分成上下两层。

17 And mount on it a setting of gemstones, four rows of stones: In the first row there shall be a ruby, a topaz, and an emerald;

17 上面要镶上四行宝石：第一行是红宝石、黄玉和翠玉；

18 in the second row a turquoise, a sapphire, and a diamond;

18 第二行是绿宝石、蓝宝石和金刚石；

19 in the third row a jacinth, an agate, and an amethyst;

19 第三行是紫玛瑙、白玛瑙和紫晶；

20 and in the fourth row a beryl, an onyx, and a jasper. Mount these stones in gold filigree settings.

20 第四行是水苍玉、红玛瑙和碧玉。这些宝石都要镶在金框上。

21 The twelve stones are to correspond to the names of the sons of Israel, each engraved like a seal with the name of one of the twelve tribes.

21 要用刻图章的方法在每一颗宝石上刻一个以色列儿子的名字，十二颗宝石代表十二支派。

22 For the breastpiece, make braided chains like cords of pure gold.

22 “要用纯金拧成两条像绳子一样的链子，连在胸牌上，

23 You are also to make two gold rings and fasten them to the two corners of the breastpiece.

23 造两个金环安在胸牌两端，

24 Then fasten the two gold chains to the two gold rings at the corners of the breastpiece,

24 把两条金链分别系在胸牌两端的金环上，

25 and fasten the other ends of the two chains to the two filigree settings, attaching them to the shoulder pieces of the ephod at the front.

25 再把金链的另两端接在两个金框上，安在以弗得前面的肩带上。

26 Make two more gold rings and attach them to the other two corners of the breastpiece, on the inside edge next to the ephod.

26 造两个金环，安在靠近以弗得内边的胸牌下两端。

27 Make two additional gold rings and attach them to the bottom of the two shoulder pieces of the ephod, on its front, near its seam just above its woven waistband.

27 再造两个金环，安在以弗得前面两条肩带下端，靠近精致的以弗得腰带上方的接缝处。

28 The rings of the breastpiece shall be tied to the rings of the ephod with a cord of blue yarn, so that the breastpiece is above the waistband of the ephod and does not swing out from the ephod.

28 再用一条蓝色的带子系住以弗得和胸牌上面的金环，使胸牌贴在精工织成的以弗得腰带上，不会从以弗得上松脱。

29 Whenever Aaron enters the Holy Place, he shall bear the names of the sons of Israel over his heart on the breastpiece of judgment, as a continual reminder before the LORD.

29 亚伦进圣所时，要佩戴这块刻着以色列众子名字、用来做判断的胸牌，在耶和华面前常作纪念。

30 And place the Urim and Thummim in the breastpiece of judgment, so that they will also be over Aaron’s heart whenever he comes before the LORD. Aaron will continually carry the judgment of the sons of Israel over his heart before the LORD.

30 又要把乌陵和土明放在胸牌里面，亚伦到耶和华面前的时候，要佩带这胸牌，以便明白上帝的旨意，为以色列人做决定。

31 You are to make the robe of the ephod entirely of blue cloth,

31 “也要缝制一件蓝色的以弗得的外袍，

32 with an opening at its top in the center. Around the opening shall be a woven collar with an opening like that of a garment, so that it will not tear.

32 袍上要留领口，领口周围要织领边，就像铠甲的领口，免得领口破裂。

33 Make pomegranates of blue, purple, and scarlet yarn all the way around the lower hem, with gold bells between them,

33 外袍的底边要另外用蓝色、紫色、朱红色毛线做成石榴状的饰物，石榴间要挂金铃铛。

34 alternating the gold bells and pomegranates around the lower hem of the robe.

34 一个石榴一个金铃铛，相间排列，围在外袍的底边。

35 Aaron must wear the robe whenever he ministers, and its sound will be heard when he enters or exits the sanctuary before the LORD, so that he will not die.

35 亚伦事奉的时候，要穿上这外袍，以便他进圣所到耶和华面前和出圣所的时候，铃铛会发出响声，他就不至于死。

36 You are to make a plate of pure gold and engrave on it as on a seal: HOLY TO THE LORD.

36 “你也要用纯金造一块牌子，以刻印章的方法刻上‘耶和华的圣物’的字样，

37 Fasten to it a blue cord to mount it on the turban; it shall be on the front of the turban.

37 再拿一条蓝色带子，把它系在礼冠前面。

38 And it will be worn on Aaron’s forehead, so that he may bear the iniquity of the holy things that the sons of Israel consecrate with regard to all their holy gifts. It shall always be on his forehead, so that they may be acceptable before the LORD.

38 亚伦要把这金牌戴在额上，表示他承担以色列人献圣物时的过犯，这圣物是以色列百姓特别献上的礼物。这金牌要常常留在亚伦的额上，好使百姓蒙耶和华悦纳。

39 You are to weave the tunic with fine linen, make the turban of fine linen, and fashion an embroidered sash.

39 “要用细麻布缝制祭司的内袍，用细麻布做礼冠，腰带上要有刺绣，

40 Make tunics, sashes, and headbands for Aaron’s sons, to give them glory and splendor.

40 也要为亚伦的儿子们缝制内袍、腰带、头巾，显明他们职位的荣耀和尊贵。

41 After you put these garments on your brother Aaron and his sons, anoint them, ordain them, and consecrate them so that they may serve Me as priests.

41 给你哥哥亚伦及其众子穿上这些衣服后，你要用油膏立他们，使他们分别出来，做圣洁的祭司事奉我。

42 Make linen undergarments to cover their bare flesh, extending from waist to thigh.

42 “要用细麻布为他们做裤子，以遮盖下体，裤子要从腰部到大腿。

43 Aaron and his sons must wear them whenever they enter the Tent of Meeting or approach the altar to minister in the Holy Place, so that they will not incur guilt and die. This is to be a permanent statute for Aaron and his descendants.

43 亚伦父子们进会幕或走近祭坛到圣所事奉的时候，都要穿上裤子，免得担负罪责而死亡。这是亚伦及其子孙永远当守的律例。
