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.

Nadab and Abihu, sons of Aaron, each took his censer, put fire in it, and then incense. Then they offered unapproved fire before Yahweh, which he had not commanded them to offer.

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

So fire came out from before Yahweh and devoured 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 Moses said to Aaron, “This is what Yahweh was talking about when he said, 'I will reveal my holiness to those who come near me. I will be glorified before all the people.'” Aaron did not say anything.

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!«

Moses called Mishael and Elzaphan, the sons of Uzziel the uncle of Aaron, and said to them, “Come here and carry your brothers out of the camp from before the tabernacle.”

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

So they came near and carried them, still wearing their priestly tunics, out of the camp, as Moses had instructed.

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 Moses said to Aaron and to Eleazar and to Ithamar, his sons, “Do not let your hair on your heads hang loosely, and do not tear your clothes, so that you may not die, and so that Yahweh may not be angry with all the assembly. But allow your relatives, the entire house of Israel, to mourn for those whom the fire of Yahweh has set ablaze.

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

You must not go out from the entrance of the tent of meeting, or you will die, for the anointing oil of Yahweh is on you.” So they acted according to Moses' instructions.

8 Og HERREN talede til Aron og sagde:

Yahweh spoke to 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,

“Do not drink wine or strong drink, you, or your sons who remain with you, when you go into the tent of meeting, so you will not die. This will be a permanent statute throughout your people's generations,

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

to distinguish between the holy 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.

so that you may teach the people of Israel all the statutes that Yahweh has commanded through 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;

Moses spoke to Aaron and to Eleazar and to Ithamar, his remaining sons, “Take the grain offering that remains from the offerings to Yahweh made by fire, and eat it without yeast beside the altar, for it is most holy.

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.

You must eat it in a holy place, because it is your share and your sons' share of the offerings to Yahweh made by fire, for this is what I have been commanded to tell you.

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;

The breast that is waved and the thigh that is presented to Yahweh, you must eat in a clean place acceptable to God. You and your sons and daughters with you should eat those portions, for they are given as your share and your sons' share out of the sacrifices of the fellowship offerings of the people 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 thigh that is presented and the breast that is waved, they must bring with the offerings of fat made by fire, to wave before Yahweh. They will be yours and your sons' with you as a share forever, as Yahweh has 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:

Then Moses asked about the goat for the sin offering, and found that it was burned up. So he was angry with Eleazar and Ithamar, the remaining sons of Aaron; he said,

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.

“Why have you not eaten the sin offering in the area of the tabernacle, since it is most holy, and since Yahweh has given it to you to take away the iniquity of the assembly, to make atonement for them before him?

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!«

Look, its blood was not brought inside the tabernacle, so you should certainly have eaten it in the tabernacle area, 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 Aaron answered Moses, “See, today they made their sin offering and burnt offering before Yahweh, and this thing has happened to me today. If I had eaten the sin offering today, would it have been pleasing in the sight of Yahweh?”

20 Da Moses hørte dette, billigede han det.

When Moses heard that, he was satisfied.
