5 Mosebog 11
1 Og du skal elske Herren din Gud og tage Vare paa, hvad han vil have varetaget, og paa hans Skikke og hans Befalinger og hans Bud, alle Dage.
“And you have loved your God YHWH, and kept His charge, and His statutes, and His judgments, and His commands, [for] all the days;
2 Og I skulle kende i Dag — thi jeg taler ikke med eders Børn, som ikke kende, og som ikke have set det — Herren eders Guds Tugtelse, hans Storhed, hans stærke Haand og hans udrakte Arm
and you have known today—for it is not your sons who have not known and who have not seen the discipline of your God YHWH, His greatness, His strong hand, and His outstretched arm;
3 og hans Tegn og hans Gerninger, som han gjorde midt i Ægypten paa Farao, Kongen i Ægypten, og paa alt hans Land;
and His signs and His doings which He has done in the midst of Egypt, to Pharaoh king of Egypt and to all his land;
4 og hvad han gjorde paa Ægypternes Hær, paa deres Heste og paa deres Vogne, der han lod Vandet i det røde Hav flyde over dem, medens de forfulgte eder, og Herren lod dem omkomme indtil denne Dag;
and that which He has done to the force of Egypt, to its horses, and to its chariot, when He has caused the waters of the Red Sea to flow against their faces in their pursuing after them, and YHWH destroys them, to this day;
5 og hvad han har gjort ved eder i Ørken, indtil I ere komne til dette Sted;
and that which He has done to you in the wilderness until your coming to this place;
6 og hvad han gjorde ved Dathan og Abiram, Sønner af Eliab, Rubens Søn, at Jorden oplod sin Mund og opslugte dem og deres Huse og deres Telte og alle Ting, som fulgte med dem, midt iblandt hele Israel.
and that which He has done to Dathan and to Abiram, sons of Eliab, sons of Reuben, when the earth has opened her mouth and swallows them, and their houses, and their tents, and all that lives which is at their feet, in the midst of all Israel—
7 Thi eders Øjne have set alle Herrens store Gerninger, som han har gjort.
but [it is] your eyes which are seeing all the great work of YHWH which He has done.
8 Derfor skulle I holde alle de Bud, som jeg byder dig i Dag, at I maa blive stærke og komme ind og eje Landet, som I drage over til for at eje det,
And you have kept all the command which I am commanding you today, so that you are strong, and have gone in, and possessed the land to where you are passing over to possess it,
9 og at I maa forlænge eders Dage i det Land, hvilket Herren tilsvor eders Fædre at give dem og deres Sæd, et Land, som flyder med Mælk og Honning.
and so that you prolong days on the ground which YHWH has sworn to your fathers to give to them and to their seed—a land flowing with milk and honey.
10 Thi det Land, som du kommer hen til for at eje det, er ikke som Ægyptens Land, som I ere dragne ud fra, hvor du saaede din Sæd og maatte selv gaa og vande den som en Urtehave.
For the land to where you are going in to possess it is not as the land of Egypt from where you have come out, where you sow your seed and have watered with your foot, as a garden of the green herb;
11 Men det Land, som I drage over til for at eje det, er et Land med Bjerge og Dale, det drikker Vand af Himmelens Regn,
but the land to where you are passing over to possess it [is] a land of hills and valleys—it drinks water of the rain of the heavens—
12 et Land, som Herren din Gud har nøje Agt paa; Herren din Guds Øjne se stedse derpaa fra Aarets Begyndelse og indtil Aarets Ende.
a land which your God YHWH is searching; the eyes of your God YHWH [are] continually on it, from the beginning of the year even to the latter end of the year.
13 Og det skal ske, dersom I høre mine Bud, som jeg byder eder i Dag, at elske Herren eders Gud og at tjene ham af eders ganske Hjerte og af eders ganske Sjæl:
And it has been, if you listen diligently to My commands which I am commanding you today, to love your God YHWH, and to serve Him with all your heart and with all your soul,
14 Da vil jeg give eders Land Regn paa sin Tid, tidlig Regn og sildig Regn, at du kan indsamle dit Korn og din nye Vin og din Olie.
then I have given the rain of your land in its season—autumn rain and spring rain—and you have gathered your grain, and your new wine, and your oil,
15 Og jeg vil give dit Kvæg Urter paa din Mark, og du skal æde og blive mæt.
and I have given herbs in your field for your livestock, and you have eaten and been satisfied.
16 Tager eder i Vare, at eders Hjerte ikke bliver bedaaret, saa at I vige af og tjene andre Guder og tilbede dem,
Take heed to yourselves lest your heart be enticed, and you have turned aside, and served other gods, and bowed yourselves to them,
17 saa Herrens Vrede optændes imod eder, og han lukker Himmelen til, at der ingen Regn kommer, og Jorden ikke giver sin Grøde, og I snart udryddes fra det gode Land, som Herren giver eder.
and the anger of YHWH has burned against you, and He has restrained the heavens and there is no rain, and the ground does not give her increase, and you have perished quickly from off the good land which YHWH is giving to you.
18 Men I skulle lægge disse mine Ord paa eders Hjerte og paa eders Sjæl og binde dem til et Tegn paa eders Haand, at de kunne være til et Spand imellem eders Øjne.
And you have placed these words of mine on your heart and on your soul, and have bound them for a sign on your hand, and they have been for frontlets between your eyes;
19 Og I skulle lære eders Børn dem ved at tale derom, naar du sidder i dit Hus, og naar du gaar paa Vejen, og naar du lægger dig, og naar du staar op,
and you have taught them to your sons by speaking of them in your sitting in your house, and in your going in the way, and in your lying down, and in your rising up,
20 og du skal skrive dem paa Dørstolperne i dit Hus og paa dine Porte;
and have written them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates,
21 at eders Dage og eders Børns Dage maa blive mangfoldige i det Land, som Herren tilsvor eders Fædre at give dem, som Himmelens Dage ere over Jorden.
so that your days are multiplied, and the days of your sons, on the ground which YHWH has sworn to your fathers to give to them, as the days of the heavens above the earth.
22 Thi dersom I tage Vare paa alle disse Bud, som jeg byder eder at gøre efter, saa at I elske Herren eders Gud, vandre i alle hans Veje og hænge ved ham:
For if you diligently keep all this command which I am commanding you to do—to love your God YHWH, to walk in all His ways, and to cleave to Him—
23 Da skal Herren fordrive alle disse Folk fra eders Ansigt, og I skulle eje større og stærkere Folk, end I selv ere.
then YHWH has dispossessed all these nations from before you, and you have possessed nations greater and mightier than you.
24 Hvert Sted, som I med eders Fodsaaler skulle træde paa, skal høre eder til: Fra Ørken og Libanon, fra Floden, den Flod Frat, og indtil det yderste Hav skal eders Landemærke være.
Every place on which the sole of your foot treads is yours: from the wilderness and Lebanon, from the river, the Euphrates River, even to the Western Sea, is your border.
25 Der skal ingen Mand kunne staa for eders Ansigt; Herren eders Gud skal lade Rædsel for eder og Frygt for eder komme over alt Landet, som I træde paa, ligesom han har sagt eder.
No man stations himself in your presence; your God YHWH puts your dread and your fear on the face of all the land on which you tread, as He has spoken to you.
26 Se, jeg lægger i Dag for eders Ansigt Velsignelse og Forbandelse:
See, today I am setting before you a blessing and a reviling:
27 Velsignelsen, naar I lyde Herren eders Guds Bud, som jeg byder eder i Dag;
the blessing when you listen to the commands of your God YHWH which I am commanding you today;
28 og Forbandelsen, dersom I ikke lyde Herren eders Guds Bud, men vige fra den Vej, som jeg byder eder i Dag, saa at I vandre efter andre Guder, som I ikke kende.
and the reviling if you do not listen to the commands of your God YHWH, and have turned aside from the way which I am commanding you today, to go after other gods which you have not known.
29 Og det skal ske, naar Herren din Gud fører dig ind i det Land, som du kommer hen til for at eje det, da skal du lyse Velsignelsen paa det Bjerg Garizim og Forbandelsen paa det Bjerg Ebal.
And it has been, when your God YHWH brings you into the land to where you are going in to possess it, that you have given the blessing on Mount Gerizim and the reviling on Mount Ebal;
30 Ere disse ikke paa hin Side Jordanen bag Vejen imod Solens Nedgang, i Kananiternes Land, som bo paa den slette Mark, tværs over for Gilgal ved More Lund?
are they not beyond the Jordan, behind the way of the going in of the sun, in the land of the Canaanite who is dwelling in the plain opposite Gilgal, near the oaks of Moreh?
31 Thi I gaa over Jordanen for at komme ind at eje Landet, som Herren eders Gud giver eder; og I skulle eje det og bo i det.
For you are passing over the Jordan to go in to possess the land which your God YHWH is giving to you; and you have possessed it, and dwelt in it,
32 Saa skulle I tage Vare paa at gøre efter alle de Skikke og Bud, som jeg lægger for eders Ansigt paa denne Dag.
and observed to do all the statutes and the judgments which I am setting before you today.”
