2 Mosebog 34

1 Derpaa sagde HERREN til Moses: »Tilhug dig to Stentavler ligesom de forrige, saa vil jeg paa Tavlerne skrive de samme Ord, som stod paa de forrige Tavler, du slog i Stykker.

And the LORD said unto Moses: 'Hew thee two tables of stone like unto the first; and I will write upon the tables the words that were on the first tables, which thou didst break.

2 Gør dig saa rede til i Morgen, stig om Morgenen op paa Sinaj Bjerg og stil dig hen og vent paa mig der paa Bjergets Top.

And be ready by the morning, and come up in the morning unto mount Sinai, and present thyself there to Me on the top of the mount.

3 Ingen maa følge med dig derop, og ingen maa vise sig noget Sted paa Bjerget, end ikke Smaakvæg eller Hornkvæg maa græsse i Nærheden af dette Bjerg.«

And no man shall come up with thee, neither let any man be seen throughout all the mount; neither let the flocks nor herds feed before that mount.'

4 Da tilhuggede han to Stentavler ligesom de forrige, og tidligt næste Morgen steg Moses op paa Sinaj Bjerg, som Gud havde paalagt ham, og tog de to Stentavler med sig.

And he hewed two tables of stone like unto the first; and Moses rose up early in the morning, and went up unto mount Sinai, as the LORD had commanded him, and took in his hand two tables of stone.

5 Da steg HERREN ned i Skyen; og Moses stillede sig hos ham der og paakaldte HERRENS Navn.

And the LORD descended in the cloud, and stood with him there, and proclaimed the name of the LORD.

6 Og HERREN gik forbi ham og raabte: »HERREN, HERREN, Gud, som er barmhjertig og naadig, langmodig og rig paa Miskundhed og Trofasthed,

And the LORD passed by before him, and proclaimed: 'The LORD, the LORD, God, merciful and gracious, long-suffering, and abundant in goodness and truth;

7 som bevarer Miskundhed mod Tusinder, som tilgiver Brøde, Overtrædelse og Synd, men ikke lader den skyldige ustraffet, som straffer Fædres Brøde paa Børn og Børnebørn, paa dem i tredje og fjerde Led!«

keeping mercy unto the thousandth generation, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin; and that will by no means clear the guilty; visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, and upon the children's children, unto the third and unto the fourth generation.'

8 Da bøjede Moses sig hastelig til Jorden, tilbad

And Moses made haste, and bowed his head toward the earth, and worshipped.

9 og sagde: »Har jeg fundet Naade for dine Øjne, Herre, saa drage min Herre med i vor Midte; thi det er et halsstarrigt Folk. Men tilgiv vor Brøde og vor Synd og lad os være din Ejendom!«

And he said: 'If now I have found grace in Thy sight, O Lord, let the Lord, I pray Thee, go in the midst of us; for it is a stiffnecked people; and pardon our iniquity and our sin, and take us for Thine inheritance.'

10 Han sagde: »Se, jeg vil slutte en Pagt; i hele dit Folks Paasyn vil jeg gøre Undere, som aldrig før er sket nogensteds paa Jorden og blandt noget Folkeslag, og hele det Folk, i hvis Midte du lever, skal se HERRENS Værk; thi det, jeg vil udføre ved dig, er forfærdeligt.

And He said: 'Behold, I make a covenant; before all thy people I will do marvels, such as have not been wrought in all the earth, nor in any nation; and all the people among which thou art shall see the work of the LORD that I am about to do with thee, that it is tremendous.

11 Hold dig det efterrettelig, som jeg i Dag byder dig! Se, jeg vil drive Amoriterne, Kana'anæerne, Hetiterne, Perizziterne, Hivviterne og Jebusiterne bort foran dig!

Observe thou that which I am commanding thee this day; behold, I am driving out before thee the Amorite, and the Canaanite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, and the Hivite, and the Jebusite.

12 Vogt dig vel for at slutte nogen Pagt med Indbyggerne i det Land, du kommer til, for at de ikke skal blive en Snare for dig, naar de lever i din Midte.

Take heed to thyself, lest thou make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land whither thou goest, lest they be for a snare in the midst of thee.

13 Men I skal nedbryde deres Altre, sønderslaa deres Stenstøtter og omhugge deres Asjerastøtter!

But ye shall break down their altars, and dash in pieces their pillars, and ye shall cut down their Asherim.

14 Thi du maa ikke tilbede nogen anden Gud, thi «Nidkær» er HERRENS Navn, nidkær Gud er han.

For thou shalt bow down to no other god; for the LORD, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God;

15 Du maa ikke slutte Pagt med Landets Indbyggere, og naar de boler med deres Guder og ofrer til dem og man indbyder dig til at være med, maa du ikke spise af deres Ofre;

lest thou make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land, and they go astray after their gods, and do sacrifice unto their gods, and they call thee, and thou eat of their sacrifice;

16 og du maa ikke af deres Døtre tage Hustruer til dine Sønner, saa deres Døtre, naar de boler med deres Guder, faar dine Sønner til ogsaa at bole med dem.

and thou take of their daughters unto thy sons, and their daughters go astray after their gods, and make thy sons go astray after their gods.

17 Du maa ikke gøre dig noget støbt Gudebillede.

Thou shalt make thee no molten gods.

18 Du skal lejre de usyrede Brøds Højtid; i syv Dage skal du spise usyret Brød, som jeg har paalagt dig, laa den fastsatte Tid i Abib Maaned, thi i Abib Maaned drog du ud af Ægypten.

The feast of unleavened bread shalt thou keep. Seven days thou shalt eat unleavened bread, as I commanded thee, at the time appointed in the month Abib, for in the month Abib thou camest out from Egypt.

19 Alt førstefødt tilhører mig; af dine Hjorde skal du ofre mig det førstefødte af Handyrene, baade af Okset og smaat Kvæg;

All that openeth the womb is Mine; and of all thy cattle thou shalt sanctify the males, the firstlings of ox and sheep.

20 men de førstefødte Æsler skal du udløse med et Stykke smaat Kvæg, og hvis du ikke udløser det, skal du sønderbryde Halsen derpaa; alle dine førstefødte Sønner skal du udløse. Du maa ikke stedes for mit Aasyn med tomme Hænder.

And the firstling of an ass thou shalt redeem with a lamb; and if thou wilt not redeem it, then thou shalt break its neck. All the first-born of thy sons thou shalt redeem. And none shall appear before Me empty.

21 I seks Dage maa du arbejde, men paa den syvende skal du hvile; i Pløje og Høsttiden skal du holde Hviledag.

Six days thou shalt work, but on the seventh day thou shalt rest; in plowing time and in harvest thou shalt rest.

22 Du skal fejre Ugehøjtid med Førstegrøden af Hvedehøsten og Frugthøsthøjtid ved Jævndøgnstide.

And thou shalt observe the feast of weeks, even of the first-fruits of wheat harvest, and the feast of ingathering at the turn of the year.

23 Tre Gange om Aaret skal alle at Mandkøn hos dig stedes for den Herre HERREN Israels Guds Aasyn.

Three times in the year shall all thy males appear before the Lord GOD, the God of Israel.

24 Thi jeg vil drive Folkeslag bort foran dig og gøre dine Landemærker vide, og ingen skal attraa dit Land, medens du drager hen for at stedes for HERREN din Guds Aasyn tre Gange om Aaret.

For I will cast out nations before thee, and enlarge thy borders; neither shall any man covet thy land, when thou goest up to appear before the LORD thy God three times in the year.

25 Du maa ikke ofre Blodet af mit Offer sammen med syret Brød. Paaskehøjtidens Offer maa ikke gemmes til næste Morgen.

Thou shalt not offer the blood of My sacrifice with leavened bread; neither shall the sacrifice of the feast of the passover be left unto the morning.

26 Det bedste af din Jords Førstegrøde skal du bringe til HERREN din Guds Hus. Du maa ikke koge et Hid i dets Moders Mælk!«

The choicest first-fruits of thy land thou shalt bring unto the house of the LORD thy God. Thou shalt not seethe a kid in its mother's milk.'

27 Og HERREN sagde til Moses: »Skriv disse Ord op, thi paa Grundlag af disse Ord slutter jeg Pagt med dig og Israel.«

And the LORD said unto Moses: 'Write thou these words, for after the tenor of these words I have made a covenant with thee and with Israel.'

28 Og han blev der hos HERREN fyrretyve Dage og fyrretyve Nætter uden at spise eller drikke; og han skrev Pagtsordene, de ti Ord, paa Tavlerne.

And he was there with the LORD forty days and forty nights; he did neither eat bread, nor drink water. And he wrote upon the tables the words of the covenant, the ten words.

29 Da Moses steg ned fra Sinaj Bjerg med Vidnesbyrdets to Tavler i Haanden, vidste han ikke, at hans Ansigts Hud var kommet til at straale, ved at han talede med ham.

And it came to pass, when Moses came down from mount Sinai with the two tables of the testimony in Moses' hand, when he came down from the mount, that Moses knew not that the skin of his face sent forth beams while He talked with him.

30 Men Aron og alle Israeliterne saa Moses, og se, hans Ansigts Hud straalede, og de turde ikke komme ham nær.

And when Aaron and all the children of Israel saw Moses, behold, the skin of his face sent forth beams; and they were afraid to come nigh him.

31 Men Moses kaldte paa dem, og da vendte Aron og alle Menighedens Øverster tilbage til ham, og Moses talte til dem.

And Moses called unto them; and Aaron and all the rulers of the congregation returned unto him; and Moses spoke to them.

32 Derpaa kom alle Israeliterne hen til ham, og han paalagde dem alt, hvad HERREN havde talet til ham paa Sinaj Bjerg.

And afterward all the children of Israel came nigh, and he gave them in commandment all that the LORD had spoken with him in mount Sinai.

33 Men da Moses var færdig med at tale til dem, lagde han et Dække over sit Ansigt.

And when Moses had done speaking with them, he put a veil on his face.

34 Hver Gang han derefter traadte frem for HERRENS Aasyn for at tale med ham, tog han Sløret af, indtil han kom ud igen; og naar han kom ud, meddelte han Israeliterne, hvad der var blevet ham paabudt.

But when Moses went in before the LORD that He might speak with him, he took the veil off, until he came out; and he came out; and spoke unto the children of Israel that which he was commanded.

35 Da saa Israeliterne, at Moses's Ansigts Hud straalede; og Moses lagde da Dækket over sit Ansigt, indtil han atter gik ind for at tale med ham.

And the children of Israel saw the face of Moses, that the skin of Moses' face sent forth beams; and Moses put the veil back upon his face, until he went in to speak with Him.
