But Moses said,“ It would not be right to do that, because what we will sacrifice to the Lord our God is detestable to the Egyptians. If we sacrifice what the Egyptians detest in front of them, won’t they stone us?

摩西说：“这样行本不相宜，因为我们要把埃及人所厌恶的祭祀耶和华我们的神；若把埃及人所厌恶的在他们眼前献为祭，他们岂不拿石头打死我们吗？

摩西说：“这样做是不妥的，因为我们要献给耶和华—我们上帝的祭物是埃及人所厌恶的；看哪，我们在埃及人眼前献他们所厌恶的，他们岂不拿石头打死我们吗？

摩西说：“这样做是不妥的，因为我们要献给耶和华—我们神的祭物是埃及人所厌恶的；看哪，我们在埃及人眼前献他们所厌恶的，他们岂不拿石头打死我们吗？

摩西说：“这怎么行？我们用来献祭的东西，是埃及人最憎恶的。如果我们在埃及境内举行这样的仪式，他们一定会拿石头打死我们。

摩西回答：“决不可以这样行，因为我们要把埃及人看为可憎的祭物献给耶和华我们的神；如果我们把埃及人看为可憎的祭物在他们眼前献上，难道他们不拿石头打死我们吗？

摩西說：「這樣行本不相宜，因為我們要把埃及人所厭惡的祭祀耶和華－我們的神；若把埃及人所厭惡的在他們眼前獻為祭，他們豈不拿石頭打死我們嗎？

摩西說：「這樣做是不妥的，因為我們要獻給耶和華－我們上帝的祭物是埃及人所厭惡的；看哪，我們在埃及人眼前獻他們所厭惡的，他們豈不拿石頭打死我們嗎？

摩西說：「這樣做是不妥的，因為我們要獻給耶和華－我們神的祭物是埃及人所厭惡的；看哪，我們在埃及人眼前獻他們所厭惡的，他們豈不拿石頭打死我們嗎？

摩西說：「這怎麼行？我們用來獻祭的東西，是埃及人最憎惡的。如果我們在埃及境內舉行這樣的儀式，他們一定會拿石頭打死我們。

摩西回答：“決不可以這樣行，因為我們要把埃及人看為可憎的祭物獻給耶和華我們的神；如果我們把埃及人看為可憎的祭物在他們眼前獻上，難道他們不拿石頭打死我們嗎？

摩西說：『這樣作不妥當；因為我們會將埃及人所認為聖別的祭獻給永恆主我們的上帝。我們若將埃及人所認為聖別的在他們眼前獻為祭，他們豈不拿石頭打死我們麼？

摩西曰、此不宜也、我祭我上帝耶和華、必宰牲以獻、是埃及人所憎者、若於其前宰牲為祭、彼豈不以石擊我乎、

摩西曰、不能、我所宰牲、祭我之上帝耶和華、埃及人以為不可宰。如我於埃及人前、宰其所不當宰、豈不以石擊我乎。

摩西曰、不可如是以行、緣我儕必宰伊及人所拜之牲祭我天主耶和華、我若於伊及人目前、宰其所拜之牲、豈不以石擊我乎、

But Moses said,“ That would not be right. The sacrifices we offer the Lord our God would be detestable to the Egyptians. And if we offer sacrifices that are detestable in their eyes, will they not stone us?

But Moses said,“ That wouldn’t be right. The sacrifices we offer to the Lord our God wouldn’t be accepted by the Egyptians because of their beliefs. For that reason, they would throw stones at us and try to kill us.

But Moses said,“ It would not be right to do so, for the offerings we shall sacrifice to the Lord our God are an abomination to the Egyptians. If we sacrifice offerings abominable to the Egyptians before their eyes, will they not stone us?

But Moses replied,“ That wouldn’t be right. The Egyptians detest the sacrifices that we offer to the Lord our God. Look, if we offer our sacrifices here where the Egyptians can see us, they will stone us.

But Moses said,“ It would not be right to do that, because what we will sacrifice to the LORD our God is detestable to the Egyptians. If we sacrifice what the Egyptians detest in front of them, won’t they stone us?

But Moses said,“ It is not permissible for us to do so, because we will sacrifice to the Lord our God that which is an abomination to the Egyptians. If we sacrifice that which is an abomination to the Egyptians before their eyes, will they not stone us?

And Moses said,“ It is not right to do so, for we would be sacrificing the abomination of the Egyptians to the Lord our God. If we sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians before their eyes, then will they not stone us?

And Moses said, It is not meet so to do; for we shall sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians to Jehovah our God: lo, shall we sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians before their eyes, and will they not stone us?

And Moses said, It is not meet so to do; for we shall sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians to the LORD our God: lo, shall we sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians before their eyes, and will they not stone us?

But Moses said,“ That would not be the right thing to do, for the sacrifices we make to the LORD our God would be an abomination to the Egyptians. If we make sacrifices that are an abomination to the Egyptians right before their eyes, will they not stone us?

Moses said,“ It isn’t appropriate to do so; for we shall sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians to Yahweh our God. Behold, if we sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians before their eyes, won’t they stone us?

you are to say,‘ Your servants, both we and our fathers, have raised livestock from our youth until now.’ Then you will be allowed to settle in the land of Goshen, since all shepherds are abhorrent to Egyptians.”

They served him by himself, his brothers by themselves, and the Egyptians who were eating with him by themselves, because Egyptians could not eat with Hebrews, since that is abhorrent to them.

After these things had been done, the leaders approached me and said:“ The people of Israel, the priests, and the Levites have not separated themselves from the surrounding peoples whose detestable practices are like those of the Canaanites, Hittites, Perizzites, Jebusites, Ammonites, Moabites, Egyptians, and Amorites.

They will listen to what you say. Then you, along with the elders of Israel, must go to the king of Egypt and say to him: Yahweh, the God of the Hebrews, has met with us. Now please let us go on a three-day trip into the wilderness so that we may sacrifice to Yahweh our God.

No one reflects, no one has the perception or insight to say,“ I burned half of it in the fire, I also baked bread on its coals, I roasted meat and ate. I will make something detestable with the rest of it, and I will bow down to a block of wood.”

Solomon followed Ashtoreth, the goddess of the Sidonians, and Milcom, the detestable idol of the Ammonites.Solomon did what was evil in the Lord’s sight, and unlike his father David, he did not completely follow Yahweh.At that time, Solomon built a high place for Chemosh, the detestable idol of Moab, and for Milcom, the detestable idol of the Ammonites, on the hill across from Jerusalem.

The king also defiled the high places that were across from Jerusalem, to the south of the Mount of Destruction, which King Solomon of Israel had built for Ashtoreth, the detestable idol of the Sidonians; for Chemosh, the detestable idol of Moab; and for Milcom, the abomination of the Ammonites.

You must burn up the carved images of their gods. Don’t covet the silver and gold on the images and take it for yourself, or else you will be ensnared by it, for it is abhorrent to the Lord your God.You must not bring any abhorrent thing into your house, or you will be set apart for destruction like it. You are to utterly detest and abhor it, because it is set apart for destruction.

be careful not to be ensnared by their ways after they have been destroyed before you. Do not inquire about their gods, asking,‘ How did these nations worship their gods? I’ll also do the same.’You must not do the same to the Lord your God, because they practice every detestable thing, which the Lord hates, for their gods. They even burn their sons and daughters in the fire to their gods.

Do not be mismatched with unbelievers. For what partnership is there between righteousness and lawlessness? Or what fellowship does light have with darkness?What agreement does Christ have with Belial? Or what does a believer have in common with an unbeliever?And what agreement does God’s sanctuary have with idols? For we are the sanctuary of the living God, as God said: I will dwell among them and walk among them, and I will be their God, and they will be My people.Therefore, come out from among them and be separate, says the Lord; do not touch any unclean thing, and I will welcome you.
