3 Mosebog 23
1 Og Herren talede til Mose og sagde:
Yahweh said to Moses/me,
2 Tal til Israels Børn og sig til dem: Hvad angaar Herrens bestemte Tider, som I skulle udraabe som hellige Sammenkaldelser, da ere disse mine bestemte Tider.
“Tell the Israeli people about the festivals that I have chosen, the days when you all must gather together [to worship me].”
3 Seks Dage skal al Gerning gøres, men paa den syvende Dag er en Hviles Sabbat, en hellig Sammenkaldelse, da skulle I ingen Gerning gøre, den er for Herren en Sabbat i alle eders Boliger.
“You may work for six days [each week], but on the seventh day you must not do any work. You must rest. It is a sacred/holy day when you must gather together [to worship me]. Wherever you live, you must rest on that day.”
4 Disse ere Herrens bestemte Tider, de hellige Sammenkaldelser, som I skulle udraabe til deres bestemte Tider.
“There are festivals that I have established for you. Those will also be sacred/holy days when you must gather together [to worship me].
5 I den første Maaned, paa den fjortende Dag i Maaneden, mellem de tvende Aftener, da er det Paaske for Herren.
[The first festival is] (the Passover/when you remember that I spared your ancestors when I killed all the firstborn Egyptian sons). That festival will begin at twilight/dusk/sunset on the chosen day (each spring/in March or April each year), [and end on the following day].
6 Og paa den femtende Dag i denne Maaned er de usyrede Brøds Højtid for Herren; I skulle æde usyrede Brød i syv Dage.
The next day, the Festival of Eating Bread That Has No Yeast will begin. That festival will continue for seven days. During that time, the bread that you eat must be made without yeast.
7 Paa den første Dag skal være eder en hellig Sammenkaldelse, da skulle I ingen Arbejdsgerning gøre.
On the first day of that festival, you all must stop your regular work and you must gather together [to worship me].
8 Og I skulle ofre Ildofre for Herren i syv Dage; paa den syvende Dag skal være en hellig Sammenkaldelse, I skulle ikke gøre nogen Arbejdsgerning.
On each of the seven days, you must present to me [several animals to be] an offering/sacrifice to be completely burned [on the altar]. On the seventh day, you all must again stop your regular work and gather to worship me.”
9 Og Herren talede til Mose og sagde:
Yahweh also told Moses/me
10 Tal til Israels Børn og sig til dem: Naar I komme ind i det Land, som jeg vil give eder, og I høste dets Høst, da skulle I fremføre et Neg af det første af eders Høst til Præsten.
to tell the Israeli people [about other festivals]. He said, “When you arrive in the land which I am giving to you, and you harvest your crops [for the first time] there, bring to the priest some of the first grain that you harvest.
11 Og han skal røre Neget for Herrens Ansigt, for eder til en Behagelighed; den anden Dag efter Sabbaten skal Præsten røre det.
On the day after the [next] Sabbath/rest day, the priest will lift it up [high to dedicate it] to me, in order that I will accept it as your [gift].
12 Og I skulle gøre Offer paa den samme Dag, naar I røre Neget, et Lam uden Lyde, aargammelt, til et Brændoffer for Herren,
That same day, you must sacrifice to me a one-year-old male lamb that has no defects. You must burn it [on the altar].
13 og dets Madoffer, to Tiendeparter Mel blandet med Olie til et Ildoffer for Herren, til en behagelig Lugt; og dets Drikoffer af Vin, en Fjerdepart af en Hin.
You must also burn an offering of grain. That offering must consist of (three quarts/3.5 liters) of good flour mixed with [olive] oil. The smell [of those things burning] will be very pleasing to me. Along with that, you must also offer one quart/liter of wine, which will be a liquid offering.
14 Og I skulle ikke æde Brød eller ristede Aks eller Korn indtil den Dag, indtil I føre eders Guds Offer frem; dette skal være hos eders Efterkommere en evig Skik i alle eders Boliger.
Do not eat any bread or any roasted grain or unroasted grain on that day until after you have brought those offerings to me, your God. You must always obey [LIT] those commands, wherever you live.”
15 Og I skulle tælle eder fra anden Dagen efter den Sabbat, fra den Dag I bære Rørelsens Neg frem; syv hele Uger skulle de være;
“Seven weeks after the priest offers that grain to me,
16 til Dagen efter den syvende Uge skulle I tælle halvtredsindstyve Dage: Saa skulle I ofre nyt Madoffer for Herren.
on the next/50th day after he offers it, [each family] must bring to me an offering from the new crop of grain.
17 Af eders Boliger skulle I frembære Rørelsens Brød, der skal være to Brød af to Tiendeparter Mel, med Surdejg skulle de bages; de ere en Førstegrøde for Herren.
From your homes, bring two loaves of bread [to the priest]. He will lift them up [high to dedicate them] as an offering to me. Those loaves must be baked from three quarts/liters of good flour that has yeast mixed with it. That bread will be an offering to me from the first wheat that you harvest [each year].
18 Og I skulle ofre tillige med Brødet syv Lam uden Lyde, aargamle, og en Tyrekalv og to Vædre; de skulle være et Brændoffer for Herren, tillige med deres Madoffer og deres Drikoffer, det er en behagelig Lugts Ildoffer for Herren.
Along with this bread, you must present to me seven one-year-old lambs with no defects, one young bull, and two rams. They must all be completely burned [on the altar]. All those offerings, with the grain offering and the wine offering, will be burned, and the smell [of all those things burning] will be very pleasing to me.
19 Og I skulle lave een Gedebuk til Syndoffer, og to Lam, aargamle, til Takoffer.
Then you must also kill one male goat to be an offering/sacrifice for your sins, and two one-year-old male lambs to be an offering to enable you to maintain fellowship with me.
20 Og Præsten skal røre dem tillige med Førstegrødens Brød med en Rørelse for Herrens Ansigt, tillige de to Lam; de skulle være helligede Herren og tilhøre Præsten.
The priest will lift up these offerings [high to dedicate them] to me. He will also offer the loaves of bread that were baked from the first wheat that you harvest. Those offerings are sacred to me, but they are for the priests [to eat].
21 Og I skulle kalde sammen paa den Dag, det skal være eder en hellig Sammenkaldelse, I skulle ingen Arbejdsgerning gøre; det skal være en evig Skik i alle eders Boliger hos eders Efterkommere,
On that day, you must stop your regular work and gather to worship me. You must always obey those instructions/commands, and you must obey them wherever you live.
22 Og naar I høste eders Lands Høst, da skal du ikke skære det yderste aldeles op paa din Ager, haar du høster, og ej sanke nøje i din Høst; du skal lade det blive til den fattige og til den fremmede; jeg er Herren eders Gud.
“When you harvest the grain in your fields, do not harvest the grain along the edges of the fields, and do not pick up the grain that the harvesters drop. Leave that grain for the poor people and for the foreigners who are living among you. [Do not forget that it is] I, Yahweh your God, [who am commanding those things]!”
23 Og Herren talede: til Mose og sagde:
Yahweh also told Moses/me
24 Tal til Israels Børn og sig: I den syvende Maaned, paa den første Dag i Maaneden, skal der være eder en Hvile, en Basunklang til Ihukommelse, en hellig Sammenkaldelse.
to give these instructions/commands to the Israeli people: “[Each year] in September, on the day that I have chosen, you all must celebrate it by completely resting. You must not do any work on that day. When [the priests] blow their trumpets loudly, you all must gather together to worship me.
25 Og I skulle ingen Arbejdsgerning gøre, og I skulle ofre Ildoffer for Herren.
All of you must not do your regular work on that day. Instead, you must present offerings to me that will be burned [on the altar].”
26 Og Herren talede til Mose og sagde:
Yahweh also said to Moses/me,
27 Fremdeles paa den tiende Dag i denne syvende Maaned er det Forligelsens Dag; den skal være eder en hellig Sammenkaldelse, og I skulle ydmyge eders Sjæle, og I skulle ofre Ildoffer for Herren.
“You must celebrate a day [on which you request that I] forgive you for the sins that you have committed. That day will be nine days after the festival [when the priests blow] the trumpets. On that day you must (fast/abstain from eating food). You must gather together to worship me and present offerings to me that will be burned [on the altar].
28 Og I skulle ingen Gerning gøre paa den Dag; thi den er Forligelsens Dag, til at gøre Forligelse for eder, for Herren, eders Guds Ansigt.
You must not do any work on that day, because it is the day when the priests will offer sacrifices to me to (atone for/ask me to forgive) your sins.
29 Thi hver Sjæl, som ikke ydmyger sig paa den samme Dag, den skal udryddes fra sit Folk.
You must expel from your group anyone who does not (fast/abstain from eating food) on that day.
30 Og hver Sjæl, som gør noget Arbejde paa denne samme Dag, den Sjæl vil jeg ødelægge af hans Folks Midte.
I will get rid of anyone who does any kind of work on that day.
31 I skulle intet Arbejde gøre; det skal være en evig Skik hos eders Efterkommere i alle eders Boliger.
You must not work at all! You must always obey those instructions/commands, and you must obey them wherever you live.
32 Denne er eder en Hviles Sabbat, at I skulle ydmyge eders Sjæle; paa den niende Dag i Maaneden om Aftenen, fra den ene Aften til anden skulle I hvile paa eders Sabbat.
That day will be a day of complete rest for all of you, and on that day you must (fast/abstain from eating food) [to show that you are sorry for having sinned]. That day of rest and (fasting/abstaining from eating food) will begin on the evening before the day in which you ask me to forgive you for your sins, and it will end on the evening of the following day.”
33 Og Herren talede til Mose og sagde:
Yahweh also said to Moses/me,
34 Tal til Israels Børn og sig: Paa den femtende Dag i denne syvende Maaned er Løvsalernes Højtid i syv Dage for Herren.
“Tell the Israeli people that [each year] they must also celebrate a festival of living in temporary shelters. That festival will begin five days after the day in which they request me to forgive them for their sins. It will last for seven days.
35 Paa den første Dag skal være en hellig Sammenkaldelse; I skulle ingen Arbejdsgerning gøre.
On the first day of that festival, the people must gather together to worship me, and they must not do any regular work on that day.
36 I skulle ofre Ildoffer for Herren syv Dage; paa den ottende Dag skal der være eder en hellig Sammenkaldelse, og I skulle ofre Herren Ildoffer, det er Slutningshøjtid, I skulle ingen Arbejdsgerning gøre.
On each of the seven days of the festival, they must present to me an offering [of animals] that will be burned [on the altar]. On the next day, they must gather again to worship me and present to me another animal that will be burned [on the altar]. That also will be a sacred gathering, and they must not work on that day, either.
37 Disse ere Herrens bestemte Tider, som I skulle udraabe som hellige Sammenkaldelser, at ofre for Herren Ildoffer, Brændoffer og Madoffer, Slagtoffer og Drikoffer, hver Dags Gerning paa sin Dag;
“[To summarize], those are the festivals that I have appointed. Celebrate those sacred festivals by gathering together to present to me all the various offerings that will be burned [on the altar]—animals that will be burned completely, and offerings of grain, and offerings to enable the Israeli people to maintain fellowship with me, and offerings of wine. Each offering must be brought on the day that I have indicated.
38 foruden Herrens Sabbater og foruden eders Gaver og foruden alle eders Løfter og foruden alle eders frivillige Ofre, som I skulle give Herren.
(Those festivals must be celebrated/You must celebrate those festivals) in addition to [worshiping on] the (Sabbath days/days of rest). And all those offerings must be given in addition to the offerings that people personally decide to give, and in addition to the offerings that people make to accompany the solemn promises that they have made, or offerings that people make (voluntarily/because they themselves want to).
39 Men paa den femtende Dag i den syvende Maaned, naar I samle Jordens Grøde, skulle I højtidelig holde Herrens Højtid syv Dage; paa den første Dag skal være en Hvile og paa den ottende Dag skal være en Hvile.
“[Returning to my instructions about] the Festival of Living in Temporary Shelters, you must celebrate this festival after you have harvested all the crops. On the first day and on the last day of that festival, you must rest completely.
40 Og I skulle tage eder paa den første Dag Frugt af skønne Træer, Palmekviste og Grene af løvrige Træer og Vidier ved Bække, og I skulle være glade for Herren eders Guds Ansigt syv Dage.
But on the first day, you are permitted to pick fruit from trees. Cut palm fronds/branches and other leafy branches from trees or from bushes that grow by the streams, [and make shelters/huts to live in for that week]. Then rejoice in my presence for those seven days.
41 Og I skulle højtidelig holde denne Højtid for Herren syv Dage om Aaret; til en evig Skik hos eders Efterkommere, i den syvende Maaned skulle I højtidelig holde den.
You must celebrate this festival for seven days every year. You must never stop obeying my commands/instructions for that festival. You must celebrate it in September.
42 Syv Dage skulle I bo i Hytter, hver indfødt i Israel skal bo i Hytter,
During the seven days of that festival, all of you people who have been Israelis your entire lives must live in shelters/huts.
43 paa det eders Efterkommere skulle vide, at jeg lod Israels Børn bo i Hytter, der jeg udførte dem af Ægyptens Land; jeg er Herren eders Gud.
That will remind your descendants that their ancestors lived in shelters [for many years] after I rescued them from Egypt. [Do not forget that] I, Yahweh your God, [am the one who is commanding this].”
44 Og Mose talede om Herrens bestemte Tider til Israels Børn.
So Moses/I gave to the Israeli people all those instructions concerning the festivals that Yahweh [wanted them to celebrate] each year.
