3 Mosebog 20

1 Og Herren talede til Mose og sagde:

And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,

2 Og du skal sige til Israels Børn: Hvo som helst af Israels Børn eller af de fremmede, som opholde sig i Israel, der hengiver nogen af sin Sæd til Molek, skal visselig dødes; Folket i Landet skulle stene ham med Stene.

“And you say to the sons of Israel: Any man of the sons of Israel, and of the sojourners who is sojourning in Israel, who gives to the Molech from his seed, is certainly put to death; the people of the land stone him with stone;

3 Og jeg vil sætte mit Ansigt imod denne Mand, og jeg vil udrydde ham midt af sit Folk, fordi han hengav af sin Sæd til Molek, til at gøre min Helligdom uren og at vanhellige mit hellige Navn.

and I set My face against that man, and have cut him off from the midst of his people, for he has given to the Molech from his seed, so as to defile My sanctuary, and to defile My holy Name.

4 Og dersom Folket i Landet ser igennem Fingre med det samme Menneske, naar han hengiver nogen af sin Sæd til Molek, saa at de ikke ihjelslaa ham,

And if the people of the land really hide their eyes from that man, in his giving to the Molech from his seed, so as not to put him to death,

5 da vil jeg sætte mit Ansigt imod det Menneske og imod hans Slægt; og ham og alle dem, som efterfølge hans Bolen med at bole med Molek, vil jeg udrydde midt af deres Folk.

then I have set My face against that man and against his family, and have cut him off, and all who are going whoring after him, even going whoring after the Molech, from the midst of their people.

6 Og naar en Person vender sig til Spaakvinder eller til Tegnsudlæggere, til at bole med dem, da vil jeg sætte mit Ansigt imod denne Person, og jeg vil udrydde ham fra hans Folk.

And the person who turns to those having familiar spirits, and to the wizards, to go whoring after them, I have even set My face against that person, and cut him off from the midst of his people.

7 Derfor helliger eder og værer hellige; thi jeg er Herren eders Gud.

And you have sanctified yourselves, and you have been holy, for I [am] your God YHWH;

8 Og holder mine Skikke, og gører dem; jeg er Herren, som gør eder hellige.

and you have kept My statutes and have done them; I [am] YHWH, sanctifying you.

9 Thi hvo som helst der bander sin Fader eller sin Moder, skal visselig dødes; han bandede sin Fader eller sin Moder, hans Blod være over ham.

For any man who reviles his father and his mother is certainly put to death; he has reviled his father and his mother: his blood [is] on him.

10 Og en Mand, som bedriver Hor med en Mands Hustru, den, som bedriver Hor med sin Næstes Hustru, den Horkarl og den Horekone skal visselig dødes.

And a man who commits adultery with a man’s wife—who commits adultery with the wife of his neighbor—the adulterer and the adulteress are surely put to death.

11 Og en Mand, som ligger hos sin Faders Hustru, han har blottet sin Faders Blusel; de skulle begge visselig dødes, deres Blod skal være over dem.

And a man who lies with his father’s wife—he has uncovered the nakedness of his father—both of them are certainly put to death; their blood [is] on them.

12 Og naar en Mand ligger hos sin Søns Hustru, da skulle de begge visselig dødes; de have gjort en Skændighed, deres Blod skal være over dem.

And a man who lies with his daughter-in-law—both of them are certainly put to death; they have done perversion; their blood [is] on them.

13 Og naar en Mand ligger hos en Mandsperson, som man ligger hos en Kvinde, da have de begge gjort en Vederstyggelighed; de skulle visselig dødes, deres Blod skal være over dem.

And a man who lies with a male as one lies with a woman—both of them have done an abomination; they are certainly put to death; their blood [is] on them.

14 Og naar en Mand tager en Kvinde og hendes Moder til Ægte, er det en Skændsel; de skulle brænde baade ham og dem med Ild, og der skal ikke være nogen Skændsel iblandt eder.

And a man who takes the woman and her mother—it [is] wickedness; they burn him and them with fire, and there is no wickedness in your midst.

15 Og en Mand, som ligger hos et Dyr, skal visselig dødes, og Dyret skulle I dræbe.

And a man who commits his intercourse with a beast is certainly put to death, and you slay the beast.

16 Og naar en Kvinde kommer nær til noget Dyr, at det har Fællesskab med hende, da skal du ihjelslaa baade Kvinden og Dyret; de skulle visselig dødes, deres Blod skal være over dem.

And a woman who draws near to any beast to mate with it—you have even slain the woman and the beast; they are certainly put to death; their blood [is] on them.

17 Og naar en Mand tager sin Søster, sin Faders Datter eller sin Moders Datter, til Ægte, og ser hendes Blusel, og hun ser hans Blusel, saa er det en gruelig Ting, og de skulle udryddes for deres Folks Børns Øjne; han blottede sin Søsters Blusel, han skal bære sin Misgerning.

And a man who takes his sister, a daughter of his father or daughter of his mother, and he has seen her nakedness, and she sees his nakedness—it is a shame; and they have been cut off before the eyes of the sons of their people; he has uncovered the nakedness of his sister; he bears his iniquity.

18 Og naar en Mand ligger hos en Hustru, som er svag, og blotter hendes Blusel, blotter hendes Kilde, og hun blotter sin Blods Kilde, da skulle de begge udryddes af deres Folk.

And a man who lies with a sick woman and has uncovered her nakedness, her fountain he has made bare, and she has uncovered the fountain of her blood—even both of them have been cut off from the midst of their people.

19 Og du skal ikke blotte din Moders Søsters og din Faders Søsters Blusel; thi en saadan har blottet sin næste Slægt, de skulle bære deres Misgerning.

And you do not uncover the nakedness of your mother’s sister and your father’s sister, because his relation he has made bare; they bear their iniquity.

20 Og naar en Mand ligger hos sin Farbroders Hustru, han har blottet sin Farbroders Blusel; de skulle bære deres Synd, de skulle dø barnløse.

And a man who lies with his aunt, he has uncovered the nakedness of his uncle; they bear their sin; they die childless.

21 Og dersom en Mand tager sin Broders Hustru til Ægte, det er en slem Gerning; han blottede sin Broders Blusel, de skulle være barnløse.

And a man who takes his brother’s wife—it [is] impurity; he has uncovered the nakedness of his brother; they are childless.

22 Saa skulle I holde alle mine Skikke og alle mine Bud og gøre dem, at Landet, som jeg vil føre eder ind udi, til at bo derudi, ikke skal udspy eder.

And you have kept all My statutes and all My judgments, and have done them, and the land does not vomit you out to where I am bringing you in to dwell in it;

23 Og I skulle ikke vandre i det Folks Skikke, hvilket jeg skal udkaste for eder; thi alle disse Ting have de gjort, og jeg væmmedes ved dem.

and you do not walk in the statutes of the nation which I am sending away from before you, for they have done all these, and I am wearied with them.

24 Men jeg siger eder: I skulle eje deres Land, og jeg vil give eder det til Eje, et Land, som flyder med Mælk og Honning. Jeg er Herren eders Gud, som har udskilt eder fra Folkene.

And I say to you, You possess their ground, and I give it to you to possess it—a land flowing with milk and honey. I [am] your God YHWH, who has separated you from the peoples.

25 Og I skulle gøre Skilsmisse imellem rene og urene Dyr og imellem urene og rene Fugle; og I skulle ikke gøre eders Sjæle vederstyggelige med Dyr og med Fugle og med alt det, som kryber paa Jorden, hvilket jeg har fraskilt for eder, at I skulle holde det urent.

And you have made separation between the pure beasts and the unclean, and between the unclean bird and the pure, and you do not make yourselves abominable by beast or by bird, or by anything which creeps [on] the ground which I have separated to you for unclean.

26 Derfor skulle I være mig hellige, thi jeg Herren er hellig; og jeg har udskilt eder fra Folkene til at høre mig til.

And you have been holy to Me, for I, YHWH, [am] holy; and I separate you from the peoples to become Mine.

27 Og naar af Mand eller Kvinde nogen er en Spaamand eller Tegnsudlægger, skulle de visselig dødes; de skulle stene dem ihjel, deres Blod være over dem.

And a man or woman, when there is a familiar spirit in them, or who [are] wizards, are certainly put to death; they stone them with stone; their blood [is] on them.”
