2 Mosebog 29

1 Saaledes skal du bære dig ad med dem, naar du helliger dem til at gøre Præstetjeneste for mig: Tag en ung Tyr, to lydefri Vædre,

“This is what you must do to dedicate Aaron and his sons to serve me [by being] priests: Select one young bull and two rams that do not have any defects.

2 usyrede Brød, usyrede Kager, rørte i Olie, og usyrede Fladbrød, smurte med Olie; af fint Hvedemel skal du bage dem.

Bake three [kinds of bread] using finely-ground wheat flour, but without yeast: Bake some loaves that do not have any olive oil in them, bake some loaves that have olive oil in the dough, and bake some thin wafers that will be smeared with olive oil [after they are baked].

3 Læg dem saa i een Kurv og bær dem frem i Kurven sammen med Tyren og de to Vædre.

Put them in a basket and offer them [to me] when you sacrifice the young bull and the two rams.

4 Lad derpaa Aron og hans Sønner træde hen til Aabenbaringsteltets Indgang og tvæt dem med Vand.

Take Aaron and his sons to the entrance of the Sacred Tent, and wash them [ritually].

5 Tag saa Klæderne og ifør Aron Kjortelen, Efodkaaben, Efoden og Brystskjoldet og bind Efoden fast paa ham med Bæltet.

Then put the special clothes on Aaron—the long-sleeved tunic/gown, the robe that will be worn underneath the sacred apron, the sacred apron, the sacred pouch, and the sash/waistband.

6 Læg Hovedklædet om hans Hoved og fæst det hellige Diadem paa Hovedklædet.

Place the turban on his head, and fasten to the turban the ornament that has the words ‘Dedicated to Yahweh’ engraved on it.

7 Tag saa Salveolien og udgyd den paa hans Hoved og salv ham.

Then take the oil and pour some on his head to (dedicate him/set him apart).

8 Lad dernæst hans Sønner træde frem og ifør dem Kjortler,

Then bring his sons and put the long-sleeved tunics/gowns on them.

9 omgjord dem med Bælter og bind Huerne paa dem. Og Præsteværdigheden skal tilhøre dem med evig Ret. Saa skal du indsætte Aron og hans Sønner.

Put the sashes/waistbands around their waists and the caps on their heads. That is the ritual by which you are to (dedicate them/set them apart) to be priests. Aaron and his male descendants must serve me [by being] priests forever.

10 Før Tyren frem foran Aabenbaringsteltet, og Aron og hans Sønner skal lægge deres Hænder paa Tyrens Hoved.

“Then bring the young bull to the entrance of the Sacred Tent. Tell Aaron and his sons to put their hands on the head of the young bull.

11 Slagt saa Tyren for HERRENS Aasyn ved Indgangen til Aabenbaringsteltet

Then, while they do that, kill the young bull [by slitting its throat], and catch/drain the blood in a bowl.

12 og tag noget af Tyrens Blod og stryg det paa Alterets Horn med din Finger og udgyd Resten af Blodet ved Alterets Fod.

Take some of that blood with your finger and smear it on the projections of the altar. Throw/Splash the rest of the blood against the base of the altar.

13 Tag saa alt Fedtet paa Indvoldene, Leverlappen og begge Nyrerne med Fedtet paa dem og bring det som Røgoffer paa Alteret;

Take all the fat that covers the inner organs of the young bull, the best part of the liver, and the two kidneys with the fat on them, and burn all these on the altar [as an offering to me].

14 men Tyrens Kød, dens Hud og dens Skarn skal du brænde uden for Lejren. Det er et Syndoffer.

But the meat of the young bull and its hide and intestines must be burned outside the camp. That will be an offering to forgive the guilt of your sins.

15 Derpaa skal du tage den ene Væder, og Aron og hans Sønner skal lægge deres Hænder paa dens Hoved.

“Then select one of the rams, and tell Aaron and his sons to put their hands on the head of the ram.

16 Slagt saa Væderen, tag dens Blod og spræng det rundt om paa Alteret.

Then kill the ram [by slitting its throat]. Catch/Drain some of the blood and splash it against all four sides of the altar.

17 Skær saa Væderen i Stykker, tvæt dens Indvolde og Skinneben, læg dem paa Stykkerne og Hovedet

Then cut the ram into pieces. Wash its inner organs and its rear legs and put those with the head

18 og bring saa hele Væderen som Røgoffer paa Alteret. Det er et Brændoffer for HERREN; en liflig Duft, et Ildoffer for HERREN er det.

and burn those pieces [completely] on the altar with the rest of the ram. That will be an offering to me, Yahweh, and the smell will please me.

19 Derpaa skal du tage den anden Væder, og Aron og hans Sønner skal lægge deres Hænder paa dens Hoved.

“Take the other ram [that was selected for these rituals], and tell Aaron and his sons to put their hands on the ram’s head.

20 Slagt saa Væderen, tag noget af dens Blod og stryg det paa Arons og hans Sønners højre Øreflip og paa deres højre Tommelfinger og højre Tommeltaa og spræng Resten af Blodet rundt om paa Alteret.

Then kill the ram by slitting its throat, and drain the blood [into a bowl]. Smear some of the blood on the lobe of the right ears of Aaron and his sons, and on the thumbs of their right hands, and on the big toes of their right feet. Throw/Splash the rest of the blood against the four sides of the altar.

21 Tag saa noget af Blodet paa Alteret og af Salveolien og stænk det paa Aron og hans Klæder, ligeledes paa hans Sønner og deres Klæder, saa bliver han hellig, han selv og hans Klæder og ligeledes hans Sønner og deres klæder.

Wipe up some of the blood that is on the altar, mix it with some of the oil for anointing, and sprinkle it on Aaron and his clothes, and on his sons and their clothes. By doing that, you will dedicate them and their clothes [to me].

22 Derpaa skal du tage Fedtet af Væderen, Fedthalen, Fedtet paa Indvoldene, Leverlappen, begge Nyrerne med Fedtet paa dem, dertil den højre Kølle, thi det er en Indsættelsesvæder,

“Also, cut off the ram’s fat and its fat tail and the fat that covers the inner organs, the best part of the liver, the two kidneys with the fat on them, and the right thigh.

23 og en Skive Brød, en Oliebrødkage og et Fladbrød af Kurven med de usyrede Brød, som staar for HERRENS Aasyn,

Take also one of each of the kinds of bread [that was baked]—one made with no oil, one with oil, and one thin wafer.

24 og lægge det alt sammen paa Arons og hans Sønners Hænder og lade dem udføre Svingningen dermed for HERRENS Aasyn.

Put all these things in the hands of Aaron and his sons. [Then tell them to] lift them up [high] to dedicate them to me.

25 Tag det saa igen fra dem og bring det som Røgoffer paa Alteret oven paa Brændofferet til en liflig Duft for HERRENS Aasyn, et Ildoffer er det for HERREN.

Then take them from their hands and burn them on the altar, on top of the other things [that were placed there]. That [also] will be an offering to me, and its smell will please me.

26 Tag derpaa Brystet af Arons Indsættelsesvæder og udfør Svingningen dermed for HERRENS Aasyn: det skal være din Del.

Then take the meat of the ribs of the second ram that was killed, and lift it up [high] as an offering to me. But then this part of the animal will be for you [to eat].

27 Saaledes skal du hellige Svingningsbrystet og Offerydelseskøllen, det, hvormed Svingningen udføres, og det, som ydes af Arons og hans Sønners Indsættelsesvæder.

Then take the meat of the ribs, the other thigh of the first ram that was sacrificed to (dedicate/set apart) the priests, and the ram whose other parts were lifted high to show that they were an offering to me; and set the meat of the ribs and thigh apart for Aaron and his sons, for them to eat.

28 Og det skal tilfalde Aron og hans Sønner som en Rettighed, de har Krav paa fra Israeliternes Side til evig Tid; thi det er en Offerydelse, og som Offerydelse skal Israeliterne give det af deres Takofre, som deres Offerydelse til HERREN.

In the future, whenever the Israeli people present to me, Yahweh, offerings to maintain fellowship with me, the ribs and the thigh [of animals that they sacrifice] will be for Aaron and his male descendants [to eat].

29 Arons hellige Klæder skal tilfalde hans Sønner efter ham, for at de kan salves og indsættes i dem.

“After Aaron [dies], the special clothes that he wore will belong to his sons. They are to wear those clothes when they are (set apart/dedicated) [to become priests].

30 I syv Dage skal de bæres af den af hans Sønner, som bliver Præst i hans Sted, den, som skal gaa ind i Aabenbaringsteltet for at gøre Tjeneste i Helligdommen.

Aaron’s son who becomes The Supreme Priest and enters the Sacred Tent and performs rituals in the Holy Place must [stay in the Sacred Tent], wearing these special clothes, for seven days.

31 Saa skal du tage Indsættelsesvæderen og koge dens Kød paa et helligt Sted;

“Take the meat of the other ram that was sacrificed to (set apart/dedicate) Aaron and his sons, and boil it in the courtyard.

32 og Aron og hans Sønner skal spise Væderens Kød og Brødet i Kurven ved Indgangen til Aabenbaringsteltet;

After it is cooked, Aaron and his sons must eat it, along with the bread that is left in the basket, at the entrance of the Sacred Tent.

33 de skal spise de Stykker, hvorved der skaffes Soning ved deres Indsættelse og Indvielse, og ingen Lægmand maa spise deraf, thi det er helligt.

They must eat the meat of the ram that was sacrificed to forgive them for [their sins] when they were dedicated to do this work. They are the only ones who are permitted to eat this meat. [Those who are not priests are not allowed to eat it], because it is dedicated to me.

34 Og dersom der bliver noget af Indsættelseskødet eller Brødet tilovers til næste Morgen, da skal du opbrænde det tiloversblevne; spises maa det ikke, thi det er helligt.

If any of this meat or some of the bread is not eaten that night, no one is permitted to eat any of it the next day. It must be completely burned, because it is sacred/dedicated to me.

35 Saaledes skal du forholde dig over for Aron og hans Sønner, ganske som jeg har paalagt dig. Syv Dage skal du foretage Indsættelsen;

“Those are the rituals that you(sg) must perform during those seven days when you dedicate Aaron and his sons for this work. You must do everything that I have commanded you.

36 daglig skal du ofre en Syndoffertyr til Soning og rense Alteret for Synd ved at fuldbyrde Soningen paa det, og du skal salve det for at hellige det.

Each of those seven days you must also sacrifice a young bull as an offering to me, in order that I may forgive sins. Also, you must make another offering (to make the altar pure in my sight/in order that I will consider the altar to be pure). You must also anoint the altar with olive oil, to (set it apart/dedicate it).

37 Syv Dage skal du fuldbyrde Soningen paa Alteret og hellige det; saaledes bliver Alteret højhelligt; enhver, der kommer i Berøring med Alteret, bliver hellig.

Perform these rituals every day for seven days, to (set apart/dedicate) the altar and make it pure. If you do not do that, anyone or anything that touches the altar will become taboo.

38 Hvad du skal ofre paa Alteret, er følgende: Hver Dag to aargamle Lam som stadigt Offer.

“You must also sacrifice lambs and burn them on the altar. Each of those [seven] days you must sacrifice two lambs.

39 Det ene Lam skal du ofre om Morgenen og det andet ved Aftenstid.

One lamb must be sacrificed in the morning, and one must be sacrificed in the evening.

40 Sammen med det første Lam skal du bringe en Tiendedel Efa fint Hvedemel, rørt i en Fjerdedel Hin Olie af knuste Oliven, og et Drikoffer af en Fjerdedel Hin Vin.

With the first lamb, also offer (2 pounds/1 kilogram) of finely-ground wheat flour mixed with one quart/liter of the best kind of olive oil, and one quart/liter of wine as an offering.

41 Og det andet Lam skal du ofre ved Aftenstid; sammen med det skal du ofre et Afgrødeoffer og et Drikoffer som om Morgenen til en liflig Duft, et Ildoffer for HERREN.

In the evening, when you sacrifice the other lamb, offer the same amounts of flour, olive oil, and wine as you did in the morning. This will be an offering to me, Yahweh, that will be burned, and its smell will please me.

42 Det skal være et stadigt Brændoffer, som I skal bringe, Slægt efter Slægt, ved Indgangen til Aabenbaringsteltet for HERRENS Aasyn, hvor jeg vil aabenbare mig for dig for at tale til dig,

You [and your descendants] must continue making these offerings to me, Yahweh, throughout all future generations. You must offer them at the entrance of the Sacred Tent. That is where I will meet with you and speak to you.

43 og hvor jeg vil aabenbare mig for Israels Børn, og det skal helliges ved min Herlighed.

That is where I will meet with the Israeli people, and the brilliant light of my presence will cause that place to be holy/sacred.

44 Jeg vil hellige Aabenbaringsteltet og Alteret, og Aron og hans Sønner vil jeg hellige til at gøre Præstetjeneste for mig.

I will dedicate the Sacred Tent and the altar. I will also dedicate Aaron and his sons to serve me [by being] priests.

45 Og jeg vil bo midt iblandt Israels Børn og være deres Gud;

I will live among the Israeli people, and I will be their God.

46 og de skal kende, at jeg HERREN er deres Gud, som førte dem ud af Ægypten for at bo midt iblandt dem, jeg HERREN deres Gud!

They will know that I, Yahweh their God, am the one who brought them out of Egypt in order that I might live among them.”
