5 Mosebog 10
1 Paa den samme Tid sagde Herren til mig: Udhug dig to Stentavler som de første, og stig op til mig paa Bjerget, og du skal gøre dig en Ark af Træ:
After that the Lord told me, “Cut out two stone tablets just like the first ones, make an Ark out of wood, and come up to me on the mountain.
2 Saa vil jeg skrive de Ord paa Tavlerne, som vare paa de første Tavler, hvilke du sønderbrød, og du skal lægge dem i Arken.
I will write same the words on the tablets that were on the first ones, which you broke. Then put them in the Ark.”
3 Saa gjorde jeg en Ark af Sithimtræ og udhuggede to Stentavler som de første, og jeg gik op paa Bjerget og havde de to Tavler i min Haand.
I made an Ark out of acacia wood, cut out two stone tablets like the first ones, and went up the mountain carrying them.
4 Da skrev han paa Tavlerne ligesom den første Skrift, de ti Ord, som Herren talede til eder paa Bjerget midt ud af Ilden paa Forsamlingens Dag; og Herren gav mig dem.
The Lord wrote what he had before on the tablets, the Ten Commandments that he'd told you when he spoke from the fire on the mountain when we were all assembled there. The Lord gave them to me,
5 Saa vendte jeg mig og gik ned ad Bjerget, og jeg lagde Tavlerne i den Ark, som jeg havde gjort; og de bleve der, som Herren havde befalet mig.
and I went back down the mountain and put them in the Ark I'd made following the Lord's instructions. They have been there ever since.
6 Og Israels Børn rejste fra Beeroth-Bne-Jaakan til Mosera; der døde Aron og blev begravet der, og hans Søn Eleasar gjorde Præstetjeneste i hans Sted.
The Israelites went from the wells of the people of Jaakan to Moserah. Aaron died there and was buried, and Eleazar his son took over as priest.
7 Derfra rejste de til Gudgoda og fra Gudgoda til Jotbatha, et Land med Vandbække.
From there they moved on to Gudgodah, and from Gudgodah to Jotbathah, a land that had many streams.
8 Paa den Tid fraskilte Herren Levi Stamme til at bære Herrens Pagts Ark, til at staa for Herrens Ansigt for at tjene ham og at velsigne i hans Navn indtil denne Dag.
At this time the Lord put the tribe of Levi in charge of carrying the Ark of the Lord's Agreement, as well as serving the Lord by standing in his presence, and of pronouncing blessings in his name, as they continue to do to this day.
9 Derfor skulde Levi ingen Del eller Arv have med sine Brødre; Herren, han er hans Arv, saaledes som Herren din Gud har talet til ham.
That's why the tribe of Levi has no land allowance or share among the other tribes. The Lord provides what they need, just as the Lord your God promised.
10 Og jeg stod paa Bjerget som første Gang, fyrretyve Dage og fyrretyve Nætter, og Herren hørte mig ogsaa den Gang, Herren vilde ikke ødelægge dig.
I remained on the mountain forty days and forty nights as before, and during that time the Lord listened to my prayers once more and agreed not to destroy you.
11 Og Herren sagde til mig: Staa op, gak hen at drage foran Folket, at de maa komme ind at eje Landet, hvilket jeg tilsvor deres Fædre at ville give dem.
Then the Lord told me, “Get ready and continue your journey leading the people so they may enter and take over the land that I promised their forefathers to give them.”
12 Og nu, Israel! hvad begærer Herren din Gud af dig uden det: At frygte Herren din Gud, at vandre i alle hans Veje og at elske ham og at tjene Herren din Gud af dit ganske Hjerte og af din ganske Sjæl;
People of Israel, what does the Lord your God want from you? He wants you to respect the Lord your God by following all his ways. He wants you to love him. He wants you to worship the Lord your God with all your mind and with all your being,
13 at holde Herrens Bud og hans Skikke, som jeg byder dig i Dag, at det skal gaa dig vel!
He wants you to keep the commandments and regulations of the Lord that I am giving you today for your own good.
14 Se, Himlene og Himlenes Himle høre Herren din Gud til, Jorden og alt det, som er derpaa;
Look! Everything belongs to the Lord your God: the heavens, the highest heavens, and the earth and all that is there.
15 ikkun til dine Fædre har Herren haft Lyst, saa at han elskede dem; og han har udvalgt deres Sæd efter dem, eder ud af alle Folk, som det ses paa denne Dag.
But Lord was attracted to your forefathers and he loved them. He has also chosen you, their descendants, above any other people, even up till today.
16 Derfor skulle I omskære eders Hjerters Forhud, og I skulle ikke ydermere forhærde eders Nakke.
Dedicate yourselves to God. Don't be stubborn and hard-hearted anymore.
17 Thi Herren eders Gud er en Gud over Guderne og en Herre over Herrerne, den store, den mægtige og den forfærdelige Gud, som ikke anser Personer og ikke tager Gave,
For the Lord your God is God of gods and Lord of lords. He is the great, powerful, and awesome God. He shows no favoritism and accepts no bribes.
18 men som skaffer faderløse og Enker Ret, og som elsker den fremmede, saa han giver ham Brød og Klæder.
He makes sure that orphans and widows receive justice, and he loves the foreigners, providing them with food and clothing.
19 Derfor skulle I elske den fremmede; thi I have været fremmede i Ægyptens Land.
You too must love the foreigner because you yourselves were once foreigners in Egypt.
20 Herren din Gud skal du frygte, ham skal du tjene; og ved ham skal du hænge hart, og ved hans Navn skal du sværge.
You must respect the Lord your God and worship him. Hold onto him and make your promises in his name.
21 Han er din Lovsang, og han er din Gud, som har gjort disse store og forfærdelige Ting imod dig, hvilke dine Øjne have set.
He is the one you should praise and he is your God, who has carried out for you these incredible and awesome miracles that you've seen with your own eyes.
22 Dine Fædre droge ned til Ægypten ved halvfjerdsindstyve Personer; men nu har Herren din Gud sat dig som Stjerner paa Himmelen i Mangfoldighed.
When your forefathers went to Egypt there were only seventy of them in total, but now God has increased your numbers so much that there are as many of you as there are stars in the sky.
