3 Mosebog 10

1 Og Arons Sønner, Nadab og Abihu, toge hver sit Ildkar og lagde Ild derudi og lagde Røgelse derpaa, og de bragte fremmed Ild for Herrens Ansigt, hvilket han ikke havde befalet dem.

Now Aaron’s sons Nadab and Abihu took their censers, put fire in them and added incense, and offered unauthorized fire before the LORD, contrary to His command.

2 Da for en Ild ud fra Herrens Ansigt og fortærede dem, og de døde for Herrens Ansigt.

So fire came out from the presence of the LORD and consumed them, and they died in the presence of the LORD.

3 Da sagde Mose til Aron: Dette er det, som Herren har talet og sagt: Jeg vil helliggøres i dem, som staa mig nær, og jeg vil herliggøres for alt Folkets Aasyn; og Aron tav.

Then Moses said to Aaron, “This is what the LORD meant when He said: ‘To those who come near Me I will show My holiness, and in the sight of all the people I will reveal My glory.’” But Aaron remained silent.

4 Men Mose kaldte ad Misael og ad Elzafan, Sønner af Usiel, Arons Farbroder, og sagde til dem: Træder frem, bærer eders Brødre fra Helligdommen hen uden for Lejren.

Moses summoned Mishael and Elzaphan, sons of Aaron’s uncle Uzziel, and said to them, “Come here; carry the bodies of your cousins outside the camp, away from the front of the sanctuary.”

5 Og de traadte frem og bare dem i deres Kjortler hen udenfor Lejren, som Mose havde sagt.

So they came forward and carried them, still in their tunics, outside the camp, as Moses had directed.

6 Da sagde Mose til Aron og til hans Sønner, Eleasar og Ithamar: I skulle ikke blotte eders Hoveder og ej sønderrive eders Klæder, at I ikke skulle dø, og Herren skulde blive vred paa al Menigheden; men lader eders Brødre af alt Israels Hus græde over denne Brand, som Herren har optændt.

Then Moses said to Aaron and his sons Eleazar and Ithamar, “Do not let your hair become disheveled and do not tear your garments, or else you will die, and the LORD will be angry with the whole congregation. But your brothers, the whole house of Israel, may mourn on account of the fire that the LORD has ignited.

7 Men I skulle ikke gaa ud af Forsamlingens Pauluns Dør, at I ikke skulle dø, thi Herrens Salveolie er paa eder; og de gjorde efter Mose Ord.

You shall not go outside the entrance to the Tent of Meeting, or you will die, for the LORD’s anointing oil is on you.” So they did as Moses instructed.

8 Men Herren talede til Aron og sagde:

Then the LORD said to Aaron,

9 Du og dine Sønner med dig skulle ikke drikke Vin eller stærk Drik, naar I gaa ind i Forsamlingens Paulun, paa det I ikke skulle dø; det skal være en evig Skik hos eders Efterkommere,

“You and your sons are not to drink wine or strong drink when you enter the Tent of Meeting, or else you will die; this is a permanent statute for the generations to come.

10 for at I kunne gøre Skilsmisse imellem det hellige og det vanhellige og imellem det urene og det rene,

You must distinguish between the holy and the common, between the clean and the unclean,

11 og for at I kunne lære Israels Børn alle de Skikke, som Herren har sagt til dem ved Mose.

so that you may teach the Israelites all the statutes that the LORD has given them through Moses.”

12 Og Mose sagde til Aron og til hans Sønner, Eleasar og Ithamar, som vare overblevne: Tager det Madoffer, det som er levnet fra Herrens Ildoffer, og æder det med usyret. Brød ved Alteret; thi det er en højhellig Ting.

And Moses said to Aaron and his remaining sons, Eleazar and Ithamar, “Take the grain offering that remains from the offerings made by fire to the LORD and eat it without leaven beside the altar, because it is most holy.

13 Men I skulle æde det paa et helligt Sted; thi det er din beskikkede Del og dine Sønners beskikkede Del af Herrens Ildofre; thi saaledes er mig befalet.

You shall eat it in a holy place, because it is your share and your sons’ share of the offerings made by fire to the LORD; for this is what I have been commanded.

14 Men Rørelsens Bryst og Gavens Bov skulle I æde paa et rent Sted, du og dine Sønner og dine Døtre med dig; thi til din beskikkede Del og dine Børns beskikkede Del ere de givne af Israels Børns Takofre.

And you and your sons and daughters may eat the breast of the wave offering and the thigh of the contribution in a ceremonially clean place, because these portions have been assigned to you and your children from the peace offerings of the sons of Israel.

15 Gavens Bov og Rørelsens Bryst, som høre til Ildofrene af Fedtstykkerne, skulle de bære frem for at lade dem røre med en Rørelse for Herrens Ansigt; og det skal, være dig og dine Børn med dig en evig beskikket Del, som Herren har befalet.

They are to bring the thigh of the contribution and the breast of the wave offering, together with the fat portions of the offerings made by fire, to wave as a wave offering before the LORD. It will belong permanently to you and your children, as the LORD has commanded.”

16 Og Mose ledte flittigt efter Syndofrets Buk, og se, den var opbrændt; og han blev vred paa Eleasar og paa Ithamar, Arons Sønner, dem som vare overblevne, og sagde:

Later, Moses searched carefully for the goat of the sin offering, and behold, it had been burned up. He was angry with Eleazar and Ithamar, Aaron’s remaining sons, and asked,

17 Hvi have I ikke ædt Syndofret paa det hellige Sted? thi det er en højhellig Ting; og han har givet eder det, at I skulle bære Menighedens Skyld, for at I skulle gøre Forligelse for dem, for Herrens Ansigt.

“Why didn’t you eat the sin offering in the holy place? For it is most holy; it was given to you to take away the guilt of the congregation by making atonement for them before the LORD.

18 Se, dets Blod er ikke bragt indenfor i Helligdommen; I skulde jo have ædt det paa et helligt Sted, saa som jeg har befalet.

Since its blood was not brought inside the holy place, you should have eaten it in the sanctuary area, as I commanded.”

19 Men Aron sagde til Mose: Se, i Dag have de ofret deres Syndoffer og deres Brændoffer for Herrens Ansigt, og mig er sligt vederfaret; skulde jeg da have ædt Syndofret i Dag, skulde det have været godt for Herrens Øjne?

But Aaron replied to Moses, “Behold, this very day they presented their sin offering and their burnt offering before the LORD. Since these things have happened to me, if I had eaten the sin offering today, would it have been acceptable in the sight of the LORD?”

20 Der Mose hørte det, da syntes det ham at være godt.

And when Moses heard this explanation, he was satisfied.
