3 Mosebog 20
1 Og Herren talede til Mose og sagde:
The LORD spoke 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.
"Moreover, you shall tell the children of Israel, 'Anyone of the children of Israel, or of the foreigners who sojourn in Israel, who gives any of his offspring to Molech; he shall surely be put to death. The people of the land shall stone him with stones.
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.
I also will set my face against that person, and will cut him off from among his people because he has given of his offspring to Molech, to defile my sanctuary, and to profane 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,
If the people of the land all hide their eyes from that person, when he gives of his offspring to Molech, and do not 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 will set my face against that man, and against his family, and will cut him off, and all who play the prostitute after him, to play the prostitute with Molech, from among 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.
"'The person that turns to spirits of the dead, and to familiar spirits, to prostitute himself with them, I will even set my face against that person, and will cut him off from among his people.
7 Derfor helliger eder og værer hellige; thi jeg er Herren eders Gud.
"'Sanctify yourselves therefore, and be holy; for I am the LORD your God.
8 Og holder mine Skikke, og gører dem; jeg er Herren, som gør eder hellige.
You shall keep my statutes, and do them. I am the LORD who sanctifies 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.
