5 Mosebog 16
1 Tag Vare paa Abib Maaned, at du holder Paaske for Herren din Gud; thi i Abib Maaned udførte Herren din Gud dig af Ægypten om Natten.
Observe the month of Abib, and keep the Passover to Yahweh your God, for in the month of Aviv Yahweh your God brought you out of Egypt by night.
2 Og du skal slagte Paaskeoffer for Herren din Gud, smaat Kvæg og stort Kvæg, paa det Sted, som Herren skal udvælge, til der at lade sit Navn bo.
You will sacrifice the Passover to Yahweh your God with some of the flock and the herd in the place that Yahweh will choose as his sanctuary.
3 Du skal ikke æde syret Brød dertil, syv Dage skal du æde usyret Brød dertil, Trængselsbrød; thi med Hast drog du ud af Ægyptens Land; for at du skal ihukomme den Dag, da du uddrog af Ægyptens Land, alle dine Livsdage.
You will eat no leavened bread with it; seven days will you eat unleavened bread with it, the bread of affliction; for you came out of the land of Egypt in haste. Do this all the days of your life so that you may call to mind the day when you came out of the land of Egypt.
4 Og der skal ingen Surdejg ses hos dig inden alt dit Landemærke, syv Dage; og der skal intet af Kødet, som du slagter om Aftenen paa den første Dag, ligge Natten over til om Morgenen.
No yeast must be seen among you within all your borders during seven days; nor must any of the meat that you sacrifice in the evening on the first day remain until the morning.
5 Du maa ikke slagte Paaskeoffer i nogen af dine Byer, som Herren din Gud giver dig.
You may not sacrifice the Passover within any of your city gates that Yahweh your God is giving you.
6 Men paa det Sted, som Herren din Gud skal udvælge til der at lade sit Navn bo, der skal du slagte Paaskeofret om Aftenen, mod Solens Nedgang, paa den bestemte Tid, som du drog ud af Ægypten.
Instead, sacrifice at the place that Yahweh your God will choose as his sanctuary. There you will perform the sacrifice of the Passover in the evening at the going down of the sun, at the time of year that you came out of Egypt.
7 Og du skal koge og æde det paa det Sted, som Herren din Gud skal udvælge; og om Morgenen skal du vende om og gaa til dine Telte.
You must roast it and eat it at the place that Yahweh your God will choose; in the morning you will turn and go to your tents.
8 Seks Dage skal du æde usyrede Brød; men paa den syvende Dag er en Slutningsfest for Herren din Gud, da skal du intet Arbejde gøre.
For six days you will eat unleavened bread; on the seventh day there will be a solemn assembly for Yahweh your God; on that day you must do no work.
9 Du skal tælle dig syv Uger; fra man begynder med Seglen paa det staaende Korn, skal du begynde at tælle syv Uger.
You will count seven weeks for yourselves; from the time you begin to put the sickle to the standing grain you must start counting seven weeks.
10 Og du skal holde Ugernes Højtid for Herren din Gud, efter hvad din Haand frivillig vil yde; efter hvad Herren din Gud velsigner dig med.
You must keep the Festival of Weeks for Yahweh your God with the contribution of a freewill offering from your hand that you will give, according as Yahweh your God has blessed you.
11 Og du skal være glad for Herren din Guds Ansigt, du og din Søn og din Datter og din Tjener og din Tjenestepige og Leviten, som er inden dine Porte, og den fremmede og den faderløse og Enken, som er midt iblandt dig paa det Sted, som Herren din Gud skal udvælge til der at lade sit Navn bo.
You will rejoice before Yahweh your God—you, your son, your daughter, your male servant, your female servant, the Levite who is within your city gates, and the foreigner, the fatherless, and the widow who are among you, at the place that Yahweh your God will choose for his sanctuary.
12 Og du skal komme i Hu, at du har været en Træl i Ægypten; og du skal holde og gøre disse Skikke.
You will call to mind that you were a slave in Egypt; you must observe and do these statutes.
13 Du skal holde Løvsalernes Højtid for dig syv Dage, naar du har indsamlet af din Lo og af din Perse.
You must keep the Festival of Shelters for seven days after you have gathered in the harvest from your threshing floor and from your winepress.
14 Og du skal være glad under din Højtid, du og din Søn og din Datter og din Tjener og din Tjenestepige og Leviten og den fremmede og den faderløse og Enken, som ere inden dine Porte.
You will rejoice during your festival—you, your son, your daughter, your male servant, your female servant, the Levite, and the foreigner, and the fatherless and the widow who are within your gates.
15 Syv Dage skal du holde Højtid for Herren din Gud paa det Sted, som Herren skal udvælge; fordi Herren din Gud skal velsigne dig i al din Afgrøde og i al dine Hænders Gerning, derfor skal du kun være glad.
For seven days you must observe the festival for Yahweh your God at the place that Yahweh will choose, because Yahweh your God will bless you in all your harvest and all the work of your hands, and you must be completely joyful.
16 Tre Gange om Aaret skal alt dit Mandkøn ses for Herren din Guds Ansigt paa det Sted, som han skal udvælge, paa de usyrede Brøds Højtid og paa Ugernes Højtid og paa Løvsalernes Højtid; og der skal ingen ses tomhændet for Herrens Ansigt;
Three times in a year all your males must appear before Yahweh your God at the place that he will choose: at the Festival of Unleavened Bread, at the Festival of Weeks, and at the Festival of Shelters. No one will appear before Yahweh empty-handed;
17 men hver med Haands Gave, efter Herren din Guds Velsignelse, som han har givet dig.
instead, every man will give as he is able, that you might know the blessing that Yahweh your God has given to you.
18 Du skal sætte dig Dommere og Fogeder i alle dine Porte, som Herren din Gud giver dig, for dine Stammer; og de skulle dømme Folket med retfærdig Dom.
You must make judges and officers within all your city gates that Yahweh your God is giving you; they will be taken from each of your tribes, and they must judge the people with righteous judgment.
19 Du skal ikke bøje Retten, du skal ej heller anse nogens Person, og du skal ikke tage Gave; thi Gaven forblinder de vises Øjne og forvender de retfærdiges Sager.
You must not take justice away by force; you must not show partiality nor take a bribe, for a bribe blinds the eyes of the wise and perverts the words of the righteous.
20 Ret, Ret skal du efterjage, at du maa leve og eje det Land, som Herren din Gud giver dig.
You must follow after justice, after justice alone, so that you may live and inherit the land that Yahweh your God is giving you.
21 Du skal ikke sætte dig Astartebilleder af noget Slags Træ ved Herren din Guds Alter, som du skal gøre dig.
You must not set up for yourselves an Asherah, any sort of pole, beside the altar of Yahweh your God that you will make for yourself.
22 Du skal ikke oprejse dig Støtter, hvilke Herren din Gud hader.
Neither must you set up for yourself any sacred stone pillar, which Yahweh your God hates.
