5 Mosebog 14
1 HERREN eders Guds Børn er I, derfor maa I ikke indridse Mærker paa eder eller afrage Haaret over Panden for de dødes Skyld.
You are the children of the Lord your God: you shall not make any baldness between you eyes for the dead.
2 Thi du er et Folk, der er helliget HERREN din Gud, og dig har HERREN udvalgt til at være hans Ejendomsfolk blandt alle Folk paa Jorden.
For you are a holy people to the Lord your God, and the Lord your God has chosen you to be a peculiar people to himself of all the nations on the face of the earth.
3 Du maa ikke spise noget, som er en Vederstyggelighed.
You shall not eat any abominable thing.
4 De Dyr, I maa spise, er følgende: Okser, Faar og Geder,
These [are] the beasts which you shall eat; the calf of the herd, and lamb of the sheep, and kid of the goats;
5 Hjorte, Gazeller, Antiloper, Stenbukke, Disjonantiloper, Oryksantiloper og Vildgeder.
the stag, and doe, and pygarg, and wild goat, and camelopard.
6 Og alt det Kvæg, som har spaltede Klove, begge Klove helt spaltede, og tygger Drøv, det Kvæg maa I spise.
Every beast that divides the hoofs, and makes claws of two divisions, and that chews the cud amongst beasts, these you shall eat.
7 Men følgende maa I ikke spise af dem, der tygger Drøv, og af dem, der har Klovene helt spaltede: Kamelen, Haren og Klippegrævlingen, thi de tygger vel Drøv, men har ikke Klove; de skal være eder urene;
And these you shall not eat of them that chew the cud, and of those that divide the hoofs, and make distinct claws; the camel, and the hare, and the rabbit; because they chew the cud, and do not divide the hoof, these are unclean to you.
8 ej heller Svinet, thi det har vel Klove, men tygger ikke Drøv; det skal være eder urent. Deres Kød maa I ikke spise, og ved deres Aadsler maa I ikke røre.
And as for the swine, because he divides the hoof, and makes claws of the hoof, yet he chews not the cud, he is unclean to you; you shall not eat of their flesh, you shall not touch their dead bodies.
9 Af alt, hvad der lever i Vandet, maa I spise følgende: Alt, hvad der har Finner og Skæl, maa I spise.
And these you shall eat of all that are in the water, you shall eat all that have fins and scales.
10 Men intet, der ikke har Finner og Skæl, maa I spise; det skal være eder urent.
And all that have not fins and scales you shall not eat; they are unclean to you.
11 Alle rene Fugle maa I spise.
You shall eat every clean bird.
12 Men følgende Fugle maa I ikke spise: Ørnen, Lammegribben, Havørnen,
And these of them you shall not eat; the eagle, and the ossifrage, and the sea-eagle,
13 Glenten, de forskellige Arter af Falke,
and the vulture, and the kite and the like to it,
14 alle de forskellige Arter af Ravne,
15 Strudsen, Takmasfuglen, Maagen, de forskellige Arter af Høge,
and the sparrow, and the owl, and the cormorant,
16 Uglen, Hornuglen, Tinsjemetfuglen,
and the heron, and the swan, and the stork,
17 Pelikanen, Aadselgribben, Fiskepelikanen,
and the cormorant, and the hawk, and its like, and the hoopoe, and the raven,
18 Storken, de forskellige Arter af Hejrer, Hærfuglen og Flagermusen.
and the pelican, and the diver and the like to it, and the red-bill and the bat.
19 Alt vinget Kryb skal være eder urent og maa ikke spises.
All winged animals that creep are unclean to you; you shall not eat of them.
20 Men alle rene Fugle maa I spise.
You shall eat every clean bird.
21 I maa ikke spise noget selvdødt Dyr. Du kan give det til den fremmede inden dine Porte, at han kan spise det, eller du kan sælge det til en Udlænding. Thi du er et Folk, der er helliget HERREN din Gud. Du maa ikke koge et Kid i dets Moders Mælk.
You shall eat nothing that dies of itself; it shall be given to the sojourner in your cities and he shall eat it, or you shall sell it to a stranger, because you are a holy people to the Lord your God. You shall not boil a lamb in his mother's milk.
22 Du skal give Tiende af al din Afgrøde, der vokser paa Marken, Aar for Aar;
You shall tithe a tenth of all the produce of your seed, the fruit of your field year by year.
23 og for HERREN din Guds Aasyn, paa det Sted, han udvælger til Bolig for sit Navn, skal du nyde Tienden af dit Korn, din Most og din Olie og de førstefødte af dit Hornkvæg og Smaakvæg, for at du kan lære at frygte HERREN din Gud alle Dage.
And you shall eat it in the place which the Lord your God shall choose to have his name called there; you shall bring the tithe of your corn and of your wine, and of your oil, the firstborn of your herd and of your flock, that you may learn to fear the Lord your God always.
24 Men naar Vejen er dig for lang, saa du ikke kan bringe det derhen, eftersom det Sted, HERREN din Gud udvælger for der at stedfæste sit Navn, ligger for langt borte fra dig, fordi HERREN din Gud velsigner dig,
And if the journey be too far for you, and you are not able to bring them, because the place [is] far from you which the Lord your God shall choose to have his name called there, because the Lord your God will bless you;
25 saa skal du gøre det i Penge og pakke Pengene ind og tage dem med og drage til det Sted, HERREN din Gud udvælger,
then you shall sell them for money, and you shall take the money in your hands, and you shall go to the place which the Lord your God shall choose.
26 og du skal for Pengene købe alt, hvad dit Hjerte begærer, Hornkvæg og Smaakvæg, Vin og stærk Drik og alt, hvad du har Lyst til, og nyde det der for HERREN din Guds Aasyn og være glad sammen med din Husstand.
And you shall give the money for whatever your soul shall desire, for oxen or for sheep, or for wine, or [you shall lay it out] on strong drink, or on whatever your soul may desire, and you shall eat there before the Lord your God, and you shall rejoice and your house,
27 Og Leviten inden dine Porte maa du ikke glemme; thi han har ikke Arvelod og Del som du.
and the Levite that is in your cities, because he has not a portion or inheritance with you.
28 Men hver Gang der er gaaet tre Aar, skal du tage al Tienden af din Afgrøde i det Aar og samle den inden dine Porte,
After three years you shall bring out all the tithes of your fruits, in that year you shall lay it up in your cities.
29 saa at Leviten, der jo ikke har Arvelod og Del som du, og den fremmede, den faderløse og Enken inden dine Porte kan komme og spise sig mæt deraf; det skal du gøre, for at HERREN din Gud maa velsigne dig i al den Gerning, du tager dig for.
And the Levite shall come, because he has no part or lot with you, and the stranger, and the orphan, and the widow which is in your cities; and they shall eat and be filled, that the Lord your God may bless you in all the works which you shall do.
