2 Mosebog 28
1 Du skal lade din Broder Aron og hans Sønner tillige med ham træde frem af Israeliternes Midte og komme hen til dig, for at de kan gøre Præstetjeneste for mig, Aron og Arons Sønner, Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar og Itamar.
And take you unto you Aaron your brother, and his sons with him, from among the children of Israel, that he may minister unto me in the priest's office, even Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar, Aaron's sons.
2 Og du skal tilvirke din Broder Aron hellige Klæder til Ære og Pryd,
And you shall make holy garments for Aaron your brother for glory and for beauty.
3 og du skal byde alle kunstforstandige Mænd, hvem jeg har fyldt med Kunstfærdigheds Aand, at tilvirke Aron Klæder, for at han kan helliges til at gøre Præstetjeneste for mig.
And you shall speak unto all that are wise hearted, whom I have filled with the spirit of wisdom, that they may make Aaron's garments to consecrate him, that he may minister unto me in the priest's office.
4 Klæderne, som de skal tilvirke, er følgende: Brystskjold, Efod, Kaabe, Kjortel af mønstret Stof, Hovedklæde og Bælte. De skal tilvirke din Broder Aron og hans Sønner hellige Klæder, for at de kan gøre Præstetjeneste for mig,
And these are the garments which they shall make; a breastplate, and an ephod, and a robe, and a broidered coat, a turban, and a girdle: and they shall make holy garments for Aaron your brother, and his sons, that he may minister unto me in the priest's office.
5 og dertil skal de bruge Guldtraad, violet og rødt Purpurgarn, Karmoisinrødt Garn og Byssus.
And they shall take gold, and blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine linen.
6 Efoden skal du tilvirke af Guldtraad, violet og rødt Purpurgarn, karmoisinrødt Garn og tvundet Byssus i Kunstvævning.
And they shall make the ephod of gold, of blue, and of purple, of scarlet, and fine twined linen, with cunning work.
7 Den skal have to Skulderstykker, der skal være til at hæfte paa; den skal hæftes sammen ved begge Hjørner.
It shall have the two shoulder pieces thereof joined at the two edges thereof; and so it shall be joined together.
8 Og dens Bælte, som skal bruges, naar den tages paa, skal være af samme Arbejde og i eet med den; det skal være af Guldtraad, violet og rødt Purpurgarn, karmoisinrødt Garn og tvundet Byssus.
And the curious girdle of the ephod, which is upon it, shall be of the same, according to the work thereof; even of gold, of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen.
9 Saa skal du tage de to Sjohamsten og gravere Israels Sønners Navne i dem,
And you shall take two onyx stones, and grave on them the names of the children of Israel:
10 seks af Navnene paa den ene Sten og de andre seks paa den anden efter Aldersfølge;
Six of their names on one stone, and the other six names of the rest on the other stone, according to their birth.
11 med Stenskærerarbejde, som ved Gravering af Signeter, skal du indgravere Israels Sønners Navne i de 14 Sten, og du skal indfatte dem i Guldfletværk.
With the work of an engraver in stone, like the engravings of a signet, shall you engrave the two stones with the names of the children of Israel: you shall make them to be set in casings of gold.
12 Disse to Sten skal du fæste paa Efodens Skulderstykker, for at Stenene kan bringe Israels Sønner i Minde, og Aron skal bære deres Navne for HERRENS Aasyn paa sine Skuldre for at bringe dem i Minde.
And you shall put the two stones upon the shoulders of the ephod for stones of memorial unto the children of Israel: and Aaron shall bear their names before the LORD upon his two shoulders for a memorial.
13 Og du skal tilvirke Fletværk af Guld
And you shall make casings of gold;
14 og to Kæder af purt Guld; du skal lave dem i snoet Arbejde, som naar man snor Reb, og sætte disse snoede Kæder paa Fletværket.
And two chains of pure gold at the ends; of interwoven work shall you make them, and fasten the interwoven chains to the casings.
15 Fremdeles skal du tilvirke Retskendelsens Brystskjold i Kunstvævning paa samme Maade som Efoden; af Guldtraad, violet og rødt Purpurgarn, karmoisinrødt Garn og tvundet Byssus skal du lave det;
And you shall make the breastplate of judgment with cunning work; after the work of the ephod you shall make it; of gold, of blue, and of purple, and of scarlet, and of fine twined linen, shall you make it.
16 det skal være firkantet og lægges dobbelt, et Spand langt og et Spand bredt,
Foursquare it shall be being doubled; a span shall be the length thereof, and a span shall be the breadth thereof.
17 Og du skal udstyre det med en Besætning af Sten, fire Rækker Sten: Karneol, Topas og Smaragd i den første Række,
And you shall set in it settings of stones, even four rows of stones: the first row shall be a ruby, a topaz, and a carbuncle: this shall be the first row.
18 Rubin, Safir og Jaspis i den anden,
And the second row shall be an emerald, a sapphire, and a diamond.
19 Hyacint, Agat og Ametyst i den tredje,
And the third row a jacinth, an agate, and an amethyst.
20 Krysolit, Sjoham og Onyks i den fjerde; og de skal omgives med Guldfletværk i deres Indfatninger.
And the fourth row a beryl, and an onyx, and a jasper: they shall be set in gold in their settings.
21 Der skal være tolv Sten, svarende til Israels Sønners Navne, en for hvert Navn; det skal være graveret Arbejde som Signeter, saaledes at hver Sten bærer Navnet paa en af de tolv Stammer.
And the stones shall be with the names of the children of Israel, twelve, according to their names, like the engravings of a signet; every one with his name shall they be according to the twelve tribes.
22 Til Brystskjoldet skal du lave snoede Kæder af purt Guld, snoet Arbejde, som naar man snor Reb.
And you shall make upon the breastplate chains at the ends of interwoven work of pure gold.
23 Til Brystskjoldet skal du lave to Guldringe og sætte disse to Ringe paa Brystskjoldets øverste Hjørner,
And you shall make upon the breastplate two rings of gold, and shall put the two rings on the two ends of the breastplate.
24 og de to Guldsnore skal du knytte i de to Ringe paa Brystskjoldets Hjørner;
And you shall put the two interwoven chains of gold in the two rings which are on the ends of the breastplate.
25 Snorenes anden Ende skal du anbringe i det Fletværker og fæste dem paa Forsiden af Efodens Skulderstykke.
And the other two ends of the two interwoven chains you shall fasten in the two casings, and put them on the shoulder pieces of the ephod before it.
26 Og du skal lave to andre Guldringe og sætte dem paa Brystskjoldets to andre Hjørner paa den indre, mod Efoden vendende Rand.
And you shall make two rings of gold, and you shall put them upon the two ends of the breastplate in the border thereof, which is in the side of the ephod inward.
27 Og du skal lave endnu to Guldringe og fæste dem paa Efodens to Skulderstykker forneden paa Forsiden, hvor den er hæftet sammen med Skulderstykkerne, oven over Efodens Bælte;
And two other rings of gold you shall make, and shall put them on the two sides of the ephod underneath, toward the front part thereof, opposite to the other coupling thereof, above the curious girdle of the ephod.
28 og man skal med Ringene binde Brystskjoldet fast til Efodens Ringe ved Hjælp af en violet Purpursnor, saa at det kommer til at sidde oven over Efodens Bælte og ikke løsner sig fra Efoden.
And they shall bind the breastplate by the rings thereof unto the rings of the ephod with a lace of blue, that it may be above the curious girdle of the ephod, and that the breastplate be not loosed from the ephod.
29 Aron skal saaledes stedse bære Israels Sønners Navne paa Retskendelsens Brystskjold paa sit Hjerte, naar han gaar ind i Helligdommen, for at bringe dem i Minde for HERRENS Aasyn.
And Aaron shall bear the names of the children of Israel in the breastplate of judgment upon his heart, when he goes in unto the holy place, for a memorial before the LORD continually.
30 Og i Retskendelsens Brystskjold skal du lægge Urim og Tummim, saa at Aron bærer dem paa sit Hjerte, naar han gaar ind for HERRENS Aasyn, og Aron skal stedse bære Israeliternes Retskendelse paa sit Hjerte for HERRENS Aasyn.
And you shall put in the breastplate of judgment the Urim and the Thummim; and they shall be upon Aaron's heart, when he goes in before the LORD: and Aaron shall bear the judgment of the children of Israel upon his heart before the LORD continually.
31 Fremdeles skal du tilvirke Kaaben, som hører til Efoden, helt og holdent af violet Purpur.
And you shall make the robe of the ephod all of blue.
32 Midt paa skal den have en Halsaabning ligesom Halsaabningen paa en Panserskjorte, omgivet af en Linning i vævet Arbejde, for at den ikke skal rives itu;
And there shall be an hole in the top of it, in the midst thereof: it shall have a binding of woven work round about the hole of it, as it were the hole of an armour of jacket, that it be not rent.
33 og langs dens nederste Kant skal du sy Granatæbler af violet og rødt Purpurgarn og karmoisinrødt Garn og mellem dem Guldbjælder hele Vejen rundt,
And beneath upon the hem of it you shall make pomegranates of blue, and of purple, and of scarlet, round about the hem thereof; and bells of gold between them round about:
34 saa at Guldbjælder og Granatæbler skifter hele Vejen rundt langs Kaabens nederste Kant.
A golden bell and a pomegranate, a golden bell and a pomegranate, upon the hem of the robe round about.
35 Aron skal bære den, naar han gør Tjeneste, saa at det kan høres, naar han gaar ind i Helligdommen for HERRENS Aasyn, og naar han gaar ud derfra, at han ikke skal dø,
And it shall be upon Aaron to minister: and his sound shall be heard when he goes in unto the holy place before the LORD, and when he comes out, that he die not.
36 Fremdeles skal du lave en Pandeplade af purt Guld, og i den skal du gravere, som naar man graverer Signeter: »Helliget HERREN.«
And you shall make a plate of pure gold, and grave upon it, like the engravings of a signet, HOLINESS TO THE LORD.
37 Den skal du fastgøre med en violet Purpursnor, og den skal sidde paa Hovedklædet, foran paa Hovedklædet skal den sidde.
And you shall put it on a blue lace, that it may be upon the turban; upon the forefront of the turban it shall be.
38 Aron skal bære den paa sin Pande, for at han kan tage de Synder paa sig, som klæder ved de hellige Gaver, Israeliterne frembærer, ved alle de hellige Gaver, de bringer; og Aron skal stedse have den paa sin Pande for at vinde dem HERRENS Velbehag.
And it shall be upon Aaron's forehead, that Aaron may bear the iniquity of the holy things, which the children of Israel shall hallow in all their holy gifts; and it shall be always upon his forehead, that they may be accepted before the LORD.
39 Kjortelen skal du væve i mønstret Vævning af Byssus. Og du skal tilvirke et Hovedklæde af Byssus og et Bælte i broget Vævning.
And you shall embroider the coat of fine linen, and you shall make the turban of fine linen, and you shall make the girdle of needlework.
40 Ogsaa til Arons Sønner skal du tilvirke Kjortler, og du skal tilvirke Bælter til dem og Huer til Ære og Pryd.
And for Aaron's sons you shall make coats, and you shall make for them girdles, and bonnets shall you make for them, for glory and for beauty.
41 Og du skal iføre din Broder Aron og hans Sønner dem, og du skal salve dem, indsætte dem og hellige dem til at gøre Præstetjeneste for mig.
And you shall put them upon Aaron your brother, and his sons with him; and shall anoint them, and consecrate them, and sanctify them, that they may minister unto me in the priest's office.
42 Tillige skal du tilvirke Linnedbenklæder til dem til at skjule deres Blusel, og de skal naa fra Hoften ned paa Laarene.
And you shall make them linen breeches to cover their nakedness; from the loins even unto the thighs they shall reach:
43 Dem skal Aron og hans Sønner bære, naar de gaar ind i Aabenbaringsteltet eller træder frem til Alteret for at gøre Tjeneste i Helligdommen, at de ikke skal paadrage sig Skyld og lide Døden. En evig gyldig Anordning skal det være for ham og hans Afkom efter ham.
And they shall be upon Aaron, and upon his sons, when they come in unto the tabernacle of the congregation, or when they come near unto the altar to minister in the holy place; that they bear not iniquity, and die: it shall be a statute for ever unto him and his seed after him.
