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.

And the sons of Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, picking up their censers, placed fire in them and incense upon them, offering in the sight of the Lord a strange fire, such as was not instructed of them.

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

And fire coming out from the Lord destroyed them, and they died in the sight 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.

And Moses said to Aaron: “This is what the Lord has spoken: ‘I will be sanctified in those who approach me, and I will be glorified in the sight of all the people.’” And upon hearing this, Aaron was 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.

Then Moses called Mishael and Elzaphan, the sons of Uzziel, the paternal uncle of Aaron, and he said to them, “Go and take your brothers from the sight of the Sanctuary, and carry them beyond the camp.”

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

And moving quickly, they took them as they lay, vested with linen tunics, and cast them outside, just as had been commanded them.

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.

And Moses said to Aaron, and to his sons, Eleazar and Ithamar: “Do not uncover your heads, and do not rend your garments, lest perhaps you may die, and indignation may rise up over the entire assembly. Let your brothers, and all the house of Israel, bewail the burning that the Lord has kindled.

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.

But you shall not depart from the door of the tabernacle; otherwise, you shall perish. For certainly the oil of holy anointing is upon you.” And they did all things according to the precept of Moses.

8 Men Herren talede til Aron og sagde:

The Lord also 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 shall not drink wine, nor anything that is able to inebriate you or your sons, when you enter into the tabernacle of the testimony, lest you die. For it is an everlasting precept in your generations.

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

And so may you have the knowledge to discern between holy and profane, between polluted and clean.

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

And so may you teach the sons of Israel all my ordinances, which the Lord has spoken to them by the hand of 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 spoke to Aaron, and to his sons, Eleazar and Ithamar, who were remaining: “Take the sacrifice which remains from the oblation of the Lord, and eat it without leaven next to the altar, because it is the Holy of holies.

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.

For you shall eat it in a holy place, which is given to you and to your sons, from the oblations of the Lord, just as has been instructed me.

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.

Likewise, the breast which is offered, and the shoulder which is separated, you shall eat in a most clean place, you and your sons, and your daughters with you. For these have been set aside for you and your children from the victims which benefit 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.

Since they have lifted up in the sight of the Lord, the shoulder, and the breast, and the fat that is burned on the altar, these also belong to you and to your sons as a perpetual law, just as the Lord has instructed.”

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:

Meanwhile, when Moses was searching for the he-goat, which had been offered for sin, he discovered it burned up. And being angry against Eleazar and Ithamar, the sons of Aaron who were remaining, he said:

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 did you not eat the sacrifice for sin in the holy place, which is the Holy of holies, and which was given to you, so that you might carry the iniquity of the people, and might pray for them in the sight of 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.

especially since none of its blood has been brought into the holy places, and since you should have eaten it in the Sanctuary, as was instructed me?”

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?

Aaron responded: “This day, the victim for sin has been offered, and the holocaust in the sight of the Lord. But you see what has happened to me. How could I eat it, or please the Lord in the ceremonies, having a sorrowful mind?”

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

But when Moses had heard this, he was satisfied.
