3 Mosebog 10

1 Men Arons Sønner Nadab og Abihu tog hver sin Pande, kom Ild i dem og lagde Røgelse derpaa og frembar for HERRENS Aasyn fremmed Ild, som han ikke havde paalagt dem.

Then Aaron’s sons, Nadab and Abihu, took each man his censer and placed therein fire, and put thereon incense, —and brought near before Yahweh strange fire, which he had not commanded them.

2 Da for Ild ud fra HERRENS Aasyn og fortærede dem, saa de døde for HERRENS Aasyn.

Then came there forth fire from before Yahweh, and consumed them, —and they died before Yahweh.

3 Moses sagde da til Aron: »Det er det, HERREN talede om, da han sagde: Jeg viser min Hellighed paa dem, der staar mig nær, og min Herlighed for alt Folkets Øjne!« Og Aron tav.

Then said Moses unto Aaron—The very thing, that Yahweh spake, saying—In them that draw near to me, must I be hallowed, And before the faces of all the people, must I get myself honour, —And Aaron, was dumb.

4 Da kaldte Moses Misjael og Elzafan, Arons Farbroder, Uzziels Sønner, til sig og sagde til dem: »Kom og bær eders Frænder bort fra Helligdommen uden for Lejren!«

Then called Moses unto Mishael, and unto Elzaphan, sons of Uzziel, uncle of Aaron, —and said unto them—Draw near bear away your brethren from before the sanctuary, unto the outside of the camp.

5 Og de kom og bar dem uden for Lejren i deres Kjortler, som Moses havde sagt.

So they drew near and bare them away, in their tunics, unto the outside of the camp, —as spake Moses.

6 Men Moses sagde til Aron og hans Sønner Eleazar og Itamar: »I maa hverken lade eders Haar vokse frit eller sønderrive eders Klæder, ellers skal I dø og Vrede komme over hele Menigheden; lad eders Brødre, hele Israels Hus, begræde den Brand, HERREN har antændt;

Then said Moses unto Aaron and to Eleazar and to Ithamar, his sons—Your heads, ye may not bare and your garments, ye shall not rend so shall ye not die, neither against all the assembly, will he be wroth, —but let, your brethren the whole house of Israel, bewail the consuming fire wherewith Yahweh hath consumed.

7 og vig ikke fra Aabenbaringsteltets Indgang, ellers skal I dø, thi HERRENS Salveolie er paa eder!« Og de gjorde som Moses sagde.

But, from the entrance of the tent of meeting, shall ye not go forth, lest ye die, for, the anointing oil of Yahweh is upon you. And they did according to the word of Moses.

8 Og HERREN talede til Aron og sagde:

Then spake Yahweh unto Aaron, saying:

9 Vin og stærk Drik maa hverken du eller dine Sønner drikke, naar I gaaet ind i Aabenbaringsteltet, for at I ikke skal dø. Det skal være eder en evig gyldig Anordning fra Slægt til Slægt,

Wine and strong drink, thou mayest not drink, —thou nor thy sons with thee when ye enter into the tent of meeting, so shall ye not die, —an age-abiding statute to your generations;

10 for at I kan gøre Skel mellem det hellige og det, der ikke er helligt, og mellem det urene og det rene,

That ye may make a difference, between the sacred and the common, —and between the unclean and the clean;

11 og for at I kan vejlede Israeliterne i alle de Love, HERREN har kundgjort dem ved Moses.

And may teach the sons of Israel, —all the statutes which Yahweh hath spoken unto them, by the mediation of Moses.

12 Og Moses sagde til Aron og hans tilbageblevne Sønner Eleazar og Itamar: »Tag Afgrødeofferet, der er levnet fra HERRENS Ildoffer, og spis det usyret ved Siden af Alteret, thi det er højhelligt;

Then spake Moses unto Aaron and unto Eleazar and unto Ithamar his sons that were left, Take ye the meal-offering that is left of the altar-flames of Yahweh, and eat it unleavened beside the altar, —for, most holy, it is;

13 I skal spise det paa et helligt Sted; det er jo din og dine Sønners retmæssige Del af HERRENS Ildofre; thi saaledes er det mig paabudt.

therefore shall ye eat it in a holy place, for, thine by statute, and thy sons’ by statute, it is, from among the altar-flames of Yahweh, —for, so, am I commanded.

14 Og Svingningsbrystet og Offerydelseskøllen skal I spise paa et rent Sted, du, dine Sønner og Døtre, thi de er givet dig tillige med dine Sønner som en retmæssig Del af Israeliternes Takofre;

And the wave-breast, and the heave-shoulder, shall ye eat in clean place, thou, and thy sons and thy daughters with thee, —for as thine by statute and thy sons’ by statute, have they been given, from among the peace-offerings of the sons of Israel.

15 Offerydelseskøllen og Svingningsbrystet skal man frembære sammen med de til Ildofre bestemte Fedtdele, for at Svingningen kan udføres for HERRENS Aasyn, og de skal tilfalde dig og dine Sønner tillige med dig som en evig gyldig Rettighed, saaledes som HERREN har paabudt!«

The heave-shoulder and the wave-breast upon the altar-flames of the fat portions, shall they bring in, to wave as a wave-offering, before Yahweh, —so shall they be thine, and thy sons’ with thee, by an age-abiding statute, As Yahweh hath commanded.

16 Og Moses spurgte efter Syndofferbukken, men se, den var opbrændt. Da blev han fortørnet paa Eleazar og Itamar, Arons tilbageblevne Sønner, og sagde:

Now, as for the sin-bearing goat, Moses diligently sought it but lo! it had been burnt up, —then was he wroth against Eleazar and against Ithamar, the sons of Aaron that were left, saying:

17 »Hvorfor har I ikke spist Syndofferet paa det hellige Sted? Det er jo dog højhelligt, og han har givet eder det, for at I skal borttage Menighedens Skyld og saaledes skaffe dem Soning for HERRENS Aasyn.

Wherefore did ye not eat the sin-bearer in the holy place? for most, holy, it is, —and thee same, hath he given you that ye may bear the iniquity of the assembly, to put a propitiatory-covering over them before Yahweh.

18 Se, Blodet deraf er ikke blevet bragt ind i Helligdommens Indre, derfor havde det været eders Pligt at spise det paa det hellige Sted, saaledes som jeg har paabudt!«

Lo! the blood thereof had not been taken into the holy place, within, —ye should have, indeed eaten, it, in a holy place, as I commanded.

19 Men Aron svarede Moses: »Se, de har i Dag frembaaret deres Syndoffer og Brændoffer for HERRENS Aasyn, og en saadan Tilskikkelse har ramt mig! Om jeg i Dag havde spist Syndofferkød, vilde HERREN da have billiget det?«

Then spake Aaron unto Moses—Lo! this very day, when they had brought near their own sin-bearer, and their own ascending-sacrifice, there befell me such things as these, —if, then, I had eaten of the sin-bearer this day, would it have been well-pleasing in the eyes of Yahweh?

20 Da Moses hørte dette, billigede han det.

And, when Moses heard that, then was it well-pleasing in his eyes.
