5 Mosebog 23
1 Ingen Gilding, enten han er bleven det ved Knusning eller ved Snit, maa komme i Herrens Forsamling.
No man whose genitals have been damaged or cut off is allowed to enter the Lord's sanctuary.
2 Intet Horebarn maa komme i Herrens Forsamling; endog i tiende Led maa ikke nogen af hans komme i Herrens Forsamling.
No one of mixed race is allowed to enter the Lord's sanctuary, and none of his descendants may do so either, up to the tenth generation.
3 En Ammonit og en Moabit maa ikke komme i Herrens Forsamling; endog i tiende Led maa ikke nogen af dem komme i Herrens Forsamling evindelig;
No Ammonite or Moabite or any of their descendants are allowed to enter the Lord's sanctuary, up to the tenth generation.
4 for den Sags Skyld, at de ikke kom eder i Møde med Brød og med Vand paa Vejen, der I gik ud af Ægypten, og fordi han lejede Bileam, Beors Søn, af Pethor i Mesopotamien, imod dig til at forbande dig.
For they did not come to meet you with food and water on your journey from Egypt, and they hired Balaam, son of Beor, from Pethor in Mesopotamia, to curse you.
5 Men Herren din Gud vilde ikke høre Bileam, og Herren din Gud vendte dig Forbandelsen til Velsignelse; thi Herren din Gud havde dig kær.
But the Lord your God refused to listen to Balaam. The Lord your God turned what was meant to be a curse into a blessing for you because the Lord your God loves you.
6 Du skal ikke søge at fremme deres Fred eller deres Vel, alle dine Dage evindeligen.
Don't arrange a peace treaty with them or help them out as long as you live.
7 Du skal ikke have Vederstyggelighed til en Edomit, thi han er din Broder; du skal ikke have Vederstyggelighed til en Ægypter, thi du har været fremmed i hans Land.
Don't look down on an Edomite, for they are your relatives. Don't look down on an Egyptian either, because you lived as foreigners in their country.
8 De Børn, som de avle sig i det tredje Led, de maa komme i Herrens Menighed.
The third generation of their children are allowed to enter the Lord's sanctuary.
9 Naar du gaar ud af Lejren imod dine Fjender, da tag dig i Vare for al ond Handel.
When you are in an army camp during a war with your enemies, make sure you avoid anything wrong.
10 Naar der er en Mand iblandt eder, som ikke er ren for det, som ham kunde hændes om Natten, da skal han gaa ud uden for Lejren, han skal ikke komme ind i Lejren.
Any man there who becomes unclean because of a release of semen must leave the camp and remain outside.
11 Og hen imod Aften skal han bade sig i Vand, og naar Solen gaar ned, skal han komme ind i Lejren.
Towards the end of the day he must wash himself with water, and at sunset he may return to the camp.
12 Og du skal have et Sted uden for Lejren, og der skal du gaa hen udenfor.
Choose a place outside the camp to be used as a toilet.
13 Og du skal have en Spade foruden dine Vaaben; og naar du sætter dig derude, da skal du grave dermed og vende dig om og skjule det, som er gaaet fra dig.
You need to have a spade as part of your equipment so that you can dig a hole, and then when you're finished you can cover up your excrement.
14 Thi Herren din Gud vandrer midt i din Lejr for at udfri dig og at give dine Fjender hen for dit Ansigt; og din Lejr skal være hellig, saa at han ikke skal se nogen ublu Ting hos dig og vende sig bort fra dig.
The Lord your God is present with you in your camp to keep you safe and to defeat your enemies. Your camp must be kept holy, because if he sees anything unclean among you and he will leave you.
15 Du skal ikke overantvorde en Træl til sin Herre, naar han er undsluppen til dig fra sin Herre.
Don't send a slave back to their master if they have come to you for protection.
16 Hos dig skal han blive, i din Midte, paa det Sted, som han udvælger sig til Gode i en af dine Porte; du skal ikke forfordele ham.
Let the slave live in your country wherever they want, in whatever town they want. Don't mistreat them.
17 Der skal ingen af Israels Døtre være en Skøge, og ingen af Israels Sønner skal være en Skørlevner.
No Israelite women or men are to be cult prostitutes.
18 Du skal ikke bringe Skøgeløn eller Hundefortjeneste i Herren din Guds Hus efter noget Løfte; thi begge Dele er Herren din Gud en Vederstyggelighed.
Don't bring into the house of the Lord your God any money from a prostitute, whether a woman or a man, using it to fulfill a promise to the Lord, for both are offensive to the Lord your God.
19 Du skal ikke tage Aager af din Broder, Pengeaager, Madaager eller Aager af nogen Ting, som der kan aagres med.
Don't charge a fellow Israelite interest on money, food, or any other kind of loan.
20 Af en fremmed maa du tage Aager, men af din Broder maa du ikke tage Aager, at Herren din Gud maa velsigne dig i alt det, som du udrækker din Haand til i det Land, som du kommer hen til for at eje det.
You may charge a foreigner interest, but not an Israelite, so that the Lord your God may bless you in everything you do in the country that you are going in to occupy.
21 Naar du lover Herren din Gud et Løfte, da skal du ikke tøve med at betale det; thi Herren din Gud vil kræve det af dig, og det vil være dig en Synd.
If you make a promise to the Lord your God, don't be slow in keeping it, because he will definitely demand that you fulfill it and you will be guilty of sin if you don't.
22 Men naar du lader være at love noget, skal det ikke være dig til Synd.
If you don't make such promises then you won't be guilty of sin.
23 Det, som er udgaaet af dine Læber, skal du holde og gøre, saaledes som du har lovet Herren din Gud frivilligen det, som du har talet med din Mund.
But make sure to carry out what you've said to the Lord your God, because it was you who freely chose to make such a promise.
24 Naar du kommer i din Næstes Vingaard, da maa du æde Druer efter din Sjæls Lyst, til du er mæt; men du maa intet lægge i dit Kar.
When you walk through your neighbor's vineyard, you can eat as many grapes as you want, but you must not collect any to take with you.
25 Naar du kommer i din Næstes staaende Korn, maa du plukke Aks med din Haand; men du maa ikke røre Seglen mod din Næstes staaende Korn.
When you walk through your neighbor's grainfield, you may pick the ears of grain with your hand, but you must not use a sickle to harvest it.
