4 Mosebog 11
1 Og Folket blev som de, der knurre syndig for Herrens Øren; og Herren hørte det, og hans Vrede optændtes, og Herrens Ild brændte iblandt dem og fortærede nogle i det yderste af Lejren.
And it came to pass that when the people murmured, it was evil in the ears of Jehovah; and Jehovah heard it, and his anger was kindled, and the fire of Jehovah burned among them, and consumed [some] in the extremity of the camp.
2 Da raabte Folket til Mose, og Mose bad til Herren, saa blev Ilden dæmpet.
And the people cried to Moses; and Moses prayed to Jehovah — and the fire abated.
3 Og han kaldte det samme Steds Navn Thabeera; thi Herrens Ild brændte iblandt dem.
And they called the name of that place Taberah; because a fire of Jehovah burned among them.
4 Og det sammenløbne Folk, som var midt iblandt dem, fik stor Begærlighed; derfor gav ogsaa Israels Børn sig til at græde igen og sagde: Hvo vil give os Kød at æde?
And the mixed multitude that was among them lusted; and the children of Israel also wept again and said, Who will give us flesh to eat?
5 Vi komme i Hu den Fisk, som vi aade for intet i Ægypten, Græskarrene og Melonerne og Porrene og Rødløgene og Hvidløgene;
We remember the fish that we ate in Egypt for nothing; the cucumbers, and the melons, and the leeks, and the onions, and the garlic;
6 men nu forsmægter vor Sjæl; thi her er slet intet uden det Man for vore Øjne.
and now our soul is dried up: there is nothing at all but the manna before our eyes.
7 Men dette Man var som Korianderfrø, og dets Farve var ligesom Bedellions Farve.
And the manna was as coriander seed, and its appearance as the appearance of bdellium.
8 Folket løb hid og did og sankede og malede det i Møllerne eller stødte det i Morteren og kogte det i Potten og gjorde deraf Kager; og dets Smag var som Oliesaftens Smag.
The people went about, and gathered it, and ground it with hand-mills, or beat it in mortars, and boiled it in pots, and made cakes of it; and the taste of it was as the taste of oil-cakes.
9 Og naar Duggen faldt over Lejren om Natten, da faldt Man ned derpaa.
And when the dew fell upon the camp by night, the manna fell upon it.
10 Og Mose hørte Folket græde iblandt deres Slægter, hver i sit Telts Dør; og Herrens Vrede optændtes saare; ogsaa var det ondt for Mose Øjne.
And Moses heard the people weep throughout their families, every one at the entrance of his tent; and the anger of Jehovah was kindled greatly; it was also evil in the eyes of Moses.
11 Og Mose sagde til Herren: Hvi handlede du saa ilde med din Tjener? og hvi finder jeg ikke Naade for dine Øjne, og du lægger Byrden af hele dette Folk paa mig?
And Moses said to Jehovah, Why hast thou done evil to thy servant, and why have I not found favour in thine eyes, that thou layest the burden of all this people upon me?
12 Mon jeg har undfanget alt dette Folk? mon jeg har født det? at du skulde sige til mig: Bær det i din Favn, ligesom en Fosterfader bærer det diende Barn, ind i det Land, som du har tilsvoret dets Fædre.
Have I conceived all this people, have I brought them forth, that thou sayest to me, Carry them in thy bosom, as the nursing-father beareth the suckling, unto the land which thou didst swear unto their fathers?
13 Hvorfra skal jeg tage Kød at give alt dette Folk? thi de græde for mig og sige: Giv os Kød, at vi kunne æde.
Whence should I have flesh to give unto all this people? for they weep unto me, saying, Give us flesh that we may eat!
14 Jeg kan ikke ene bære alt dette Folk; thi det er mig for svart.
I am not able to bear all this people alone, for it is too heavy for me.
15 Og vil du handle saaledes med mig, da slaa mig ihjel, dersom jeg har fundet Naade for dine Øjne, og lad mig ikke se paa min Ulykke.
And if thou deal thus with me, slay me, I pray thee, if I have found favour in thine eyes, that I may not behold my wretchedness.
16 Og Herren sagde til Mose: Forsamle mig halvfjerdsindstyve Mænd af Israels Ældste, om hvilke du ved, at de ere Folkets Ældste og dets Fogeder; og du skal tage dem hen til Forsamlingens Paulun, og der skulle de fremstille sig med dig.
And Jehovah said to Moses, Gather unto me seventy men of the elders of Israel, whom thou knowest to be the elders of the people, and their officers; and take them to the tent of meeting, and they shall stand there with thee.
17 Og jeg vil komme ned og tale med dig der, og jeg vil tage af den Aand, som er paa dig, og lægge paa dem, at de skulle bære paa Folkets Byrde med dig, og du skal ikke ene bære den.
And I will come down and talk with thee there; and I will take of the Spirit which is upon thee, and will put it upon them; and they shall bear the burden of the people with thee, and thou shalt not bear it alone.
18 Og til Folket skal du sige: Helliger eder til i Morgen, saa skulle I æde Kød; thi I have grædt for Herrens Øren og sagt: Hvo vil give os Kød at æde? thi det gik os vel i Ægypten; derfor vil Herren give eder Kød, at I skulle æde.
And unto the people shalt thou say, Hallow yourselves for to-morrow, and ye shall eat flesh; for ye have wept in the ears of Jehovah, saying, Who will give us flesh to eat? for it was well with us in Egypt; and Jehovah will give you flesh, and ye shall eat.
19 I skulle ikke æde een Dag og ej to Dage og ej fem Dage og ej ti Dage og ej tyve Dage,
Not one day shall ye eat, nor two days, nor five days, neither ten days, nor twenty days;
20 men en Maaneds Dage, indtil det gaar ud af eders Næse og er eder til en Afsky; fordi I have forkastet Herren, som er midt iblandt eder, og have grædt for hans Ansigt og sagt: Hvortil ere vi udgangne af Ægypten?
[but] for a whole month, until it come out at your nostrils, and it become loathsome unto you; because that ye have despised Jehovah who is among you, and have wept before him, saying, Why came we forth out of Egypt?
21 Og Mose sagde: Seks Hundrede Tusinde Mænd til Fods er dette Folk, som jeg er midt iblandt, og du siger: Jeg vil give dem Kød, og de skulle æde en Maaneds Tid.
And Moses said, The people in whose midst I am are six hundred thousand footmen; and thou sayest, I will give them flesh that they may eat a whole month.
22 Mon der skal slagtes smaat Kvæg og stort Kvæg for dem, at der kan blive nok til dem? mon alle Fiskene i Havet skulle samles til dem, at der kan blive nok til dem?
Shall flocks and herds be slaughtered for them, to suffice them? or shall all the fish of the sea be gathered for them, to suffice them?
23 Og Herren sagde til Mose: Monne da Herrens Haand være forkortet? nu skal du se, om mit Ord skal vederfares dig eller ej.
And Jehovah said to Moses, Hath Jehovah's hand become short? Now shalt thou see whether my word will come to pass unto thee or not.
24 Og Mose gik ud og talede Herrens Ord til Folket; og han samlede halvfjerdsindstyve Mænd af Folkets Ældste og stillede dem rundt omkring Paulunet.
And Moses went out and told the people the words of Jehovah; and he gathered the seventy men of the elders of the people, and set them round about the tent.
25 Da kom Herren ned i Skyen og talede til ham, og han tog af den Aand, som var paa ham, og lagde paa de halvfjerdsindstyve Ældste, og det skete, der Aanden hvilede paa dem, da profeterede de, og de gjorde det ikke siden.
And Jehovah came down in a cloud, and spoke to him, and took of the Spirit that was upon him, and put it upon the seventy men, the elders; and it came to pass, that when the Spirit rested on them, they prophesied, but they did not repeat [it].
26 Men der var to Mænd blevne tilbage i Lejren, den enes Navn var Eldad, og den andens Navn Medad, og Aanden hvilede over dem, thi de vare iblandt de opskrevne, men de vare dog ikke udgangne til Paulunet, og de profeterede i Lejren.
And two men remained in the camp, the name of the one, Eldad, and the name of the other, Medad; and the Spirit rested upon them (and they were among them that were written, but they had not gone out to the tent); and they prophesied in the camp.
27 Da løb en Dreng og gav Mose tilkende og sagde: Eldad og Medad profetere i Lejren.
And there ran a youth, and told Moses, and said, Eldad and Medad are prophesying in the camp.
28 Da svarede Josva, Nuns Søn, Mose Tjener, en af hans udvalgte, og sagde: Min Herre, Mose! forhindre dem.
And Joshua the son of Nun, the attendant of Moses, one of his young men, answered and said, My lord Moses, forbid them!
29 Men Mose sagde til ham: Er du nidkær for mig? gid alt Herrens Folk var Profeter, og Herren vilde give sin Aand over dem!
But Moses said to him, Enviest thou for my sake? would that all Jehovah's people were prophets, [and] that Jehovah would put his Spirit upon them!
30 Og Mose forføjede sig til Lejren, han og de Ældste af Israel.
And Moses withdrew into the camp, he and the elders of Israel.
31 Da for der et Vejr ud fra Herren og førte Vagtler fra Havet og strøede dem over Lejren, ved en Dags Rejse til den ene og ved en Dags Rejse til den anden Side, trindt omkring Lejren, og ved to Alen højt paa Jorden.
And there went forth a wind from Jehovah, and drove quails from the sea, and cast them about the camp, about a day's journey on this side, and about a day's journey on the other side, round about the camp, and about two cubits above the earth.
32 Da stod Folket op hele den Dag og hele den Nat og hele den anden Dag, og de sankede Vagtler; hvo der havde mindst, havde samlet ti Homer; og de bredte dem trindt omkring Lejren.
And the people rose up all that day, and the whole night, and all the next day, and they gathered the quails: he that gathered little gathered ten homers; and they spread them abroad for themselves round about the camp.
33 Kødet var endnu imellem Tænderne paa dem, det var endnu ikke fortæret; da optændtes Herrens Vrede imod Folket, og Herren slog Folket med en saare stor Plage.
The flesh was yet between their teeth, before it was chewed, when the wrath of Jehovah was kindled against the people, and Jehovah smote the people with a very great plague.
34 Og man kaldte det Steds Navn Kibroth-Hattaava, fordi de der begrove Folket, dem, som havde været begærlige.
And they called the name of that place Kibroth-hattaavah; because there they buried the people who lusted.
35 Fra Kibroth-Hattaava rejste Folket til Hazeroth; og de bleve i Hazeroth.
From Kibroth-hattaavah the people journeyed to Hazeroth; and they were at Hazeroth.
