< 3 Mosebog 1 >
1 HERREN kaldte paa Moses og talede til ham fra Aabenbaringsteltet og sagde:
And the Lord called unto Moses, and spoke unto him out of the tabernacle of the congregation, saying,
2 Tal til Israeliterne og sig til dem: Naar nogen af eder vil bringe HERREN en Offergave af Kvæget, da skal Offergaven, I vil bringe, tages at Hornkvæget eller Smaakvæget.
Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, If any one of you wish to bring an offering unto the Lord: of the cattle, either of the herds, or of the flocks, shall ye bring your offering.
3 Skal hans Offergave af Hornkvæget være et Brændoffer, saa skal det være et lydefrit Handyr, han bringer; til Aabenbaringsteltets Indgang skal han bringe det for at vinde HERRENS Velbehag.
If his offering be a burnt-sacrifice of the herds, then shall he offer a male without blemish: unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation shall he bring it, that it may be favorably received for him before the Lord.
4 Saa skal han lægge sin Haand paa Brændofferdyrets Hoved, for at det kan vinde ham HERRENS Velbehag, idet det skaffer ham Soning.
And he shall lay his hand upon the head of the burnt-offering; and it shall be accepted for him to make atonement for him.
5 Derpaa skal han slagte den unge Okse for HERRENS Aasyn, og Arons Sønner, Præsterne, skal frembære Blodet, og de skal sprænge Blodet rundt om paa Alteret, som staar ved Indgangen til Aabenbaringsteltet.
And he shall kill the young steer before the Lord: and the sons of Aaron the priests shall bring near the blood, and they shall sprinkle the blood round about upon the altar that is by the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
6 Saa skal han flaa Huden af Brændofferdyret og skære det i Stykker,
And he shall flay the burnt-offering, and cut it into its pieces.
7 og Arons Sønner, Præsterne, skal gøre Ild paa Alteret og lægge Brænde paa Ilden;
And the sons of Aaron the priest shall put fire upon the altar, and lay the wood in order upon the fire;
8 og Arons Sønner, Præsterne, skal lægge Stykkerne tillige med Hovedet og Fedtet til Rette paa Brændet over Ilden paa Alteret.
And the sons of Aaron the priests shall lay in order the parts, the head, and the fat, upon the wood that is on the fire which is upon the altar;
9 Men Indvoldene og Skinnebenene skal han tvætte med Vand, og Præsten skal bringe det hele som Røgoffer paa Alteret; det er et Brændoffer, et Ildoffer til en liflig Duft for HERREN.
But its inwards and its legs shall he wash in water; and the priest shall burn the whole on the altar, as a burnt-sacrifice, an offering made by fire, of a sweet savor unto the Lord.
10 Hvis hans Offergave, der skal bruges som Brændoffer, tages at Smaakvæget, af Faarene eller Gederne, saa skal det være et lydefrit Handyr, han bringer.
And if his offering be of the flocks, of the sheep, or of the goats, for a burnt-sacrifice: then shall he offer a male without blemish as the same.
11 Han skal slagte det for HERRENS Aasyn ved Alterets Nordside, og Arons Sønner, Præsterne skal sprænge Blodet deraf rundt om paa Alteret.
And he shall kill it on the side of the altar, northward, before the Lord; and the sons of Aaron the priests shall sprinkle its blood upon the altar round about.
12 Saa skal han skære det i Stykker, og Præsten skal lægge Stykkerne tillige med Hovedet og Fedtet til Rette paa Brændet over Ilden paa Alteret.
And he shall cut it into its pieces, with its head and its fat; and the priest shall lay them in order on the wood that is on the fire which is upon the altar;
13 Men Indvoldene og Skinnebenene skal han tvætte med Vand. Saa skal Præsten frembære det hele og bringe det som Røgoffer paa Alteret; det er et Brændoffer, et Ildoffer til en liflig Duft for HERREN.
But the inwards and the legs shall he wash with water; and the priest shall bring near the whole, and burn it upon the altar; it is a burnt-sacrifice, an offering made by fire, of a sweet savor unto the Lord.
14 Er hans Offergave til HERREN et Brændoffer af Fuglene, da skal Offergaven, han vil bringe, tages af Turtelduerne eller Dueungerne;
And if of fowls be the burnt-sacrifice for his offering to the Lord: then shall he bring his offering of turtle-doves, or of young pigeons.
15 Præsten skal frembære den til Alteret og knække Halsen paa den og bringe Hovedet som Røgoffer paa Alteret, og dens Blod skal udpresses mod Alterets Side.
And the priest shall bring it near unto the altar, and pinch off its head, and burn it on the altar; and the blood thereof shall be wrung out on the wall of the altar.
16 Saa skal han udtage Kroen med dens Indhold og kaste den paa Askedyngen ved Alterets Østside.
And he shall remove its crop with its feathers, and cast it beside the altar on the east part, at the place of the ashes.
17 Derpaa skal han rive Vingerne løs paa den uden dog at skille dem fra Kroppen. Saa skal Præsten bringe den som Røgoffer paa Alteret paa Brændet over Ilden; det er et Brændoffer, et Ildoffer til en liflig Duft for HERREN.
And he shall cleave it by its wings, but shall not divide it asunder; and the priest shall burn it upon the altar, upon the wood that is on the fire: it is a burnt-sacrifice, an offering made by fire, of a sweet savor unto the Lord.
