3 Mosebog 11

1 HERREN talede til Moses og Aron og sagde til dem:

And the LORD spake unto Moses and to Aaron, saying unto them,

2 Tal til Israeliterne og sig: Af alle Dyr paa Jorden maa du spise følgende:

Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, These are the living things which ye shall eat among all the beasts that are on the earth.

3 Alle Dyr, der har Klove, helt spaltede Klove, og tygger Drøv, maa I spise.

Whatsoever parteth the hoof, and is clovenfooted, [and] cheweth the cud, among the beasts, that shall ye eat.

4 Men følgende maa I ikke spise af dem der tygger Drøv, og af dem, der har Klove: Kamelen, thi den tygger vel Drøv, men har ikke Klove; den skal være eder uren;

Nevertheless these shall ye not eat of them that chew the cud, or of them that part the hoof: the camel, because he cheweth the cud but parteth not the hoof, he is unclean unto you.

5 Klippegrævlingen, thi den tygger vel Drøv, men har ikke Klove: den skal være eder uren;

And the coney, because he cheweth the cud but parteth not the hoof, he is unclean unto you.

6 Haren, thi den tygger vel Drøv, men har ikke Klove; den skal være eder uren;

And the hare, because she cheweth the cud but parteth not the hoof, she is unclean unto you.

7 Svinet, thi det har vel Klove, helt spaltede Klove, men tygger ikke Drøv; det skal være eder urent.

And the swine, because he parteth the hoof, and is clovenfooted, but cheweth not the cud, he is unclean unto you.

8 Deres Kød maa I ikke spise, og ved Aadslerne af dem maa I ikke røre; de skal være eder urene.

Of their flesh ye shall not eat, and their carcases ye shall not touch; they are unclean unto you.

9 Af alt, hvad der lever i Vandet, maa I spise følgende: Alt i Vandet, baade i Havet og i Floderne, som har Finner og Skæl, maa I spise;

These shall ye eat of all that are in the waters: whatsoever hath fins and scales in the waters, in the seas, and in the rivers, them shall ye eat.

10 men af alt, hvad der rører sig i Vandet, af alle levende Væsener i Vandet, skal det, som ikke har Finner eller Skæl, hvad enten det er i Havet eller Floderne, være eder en Vederstyggelighed.

And all that have not fins and scales in the seas, and in the rivers, of all that move in the waters, and of all the living creatures that are in the waters, they are an abomination unto you,

11 De skal være eder en Vederstyggelighed, deres Kød maa I ikke spise, og Aadslerne af dem skal I regne for en Vederstyggelighed.

and they shall be an abomination unto you; ye shall not eat of their flesh, and their carcases ye shall have in abomination.

12 Alt i Vandet, som ikke har Finner eller Skæl, skal være eder en Vederstyggelighed.

Whatsoever hath no fins nor scales in the waters, that is an abomination unto you.

13 Følgende er de Fugle, I skal regne for en Vederstyggelighed, de maa ikke spises, de er en Vederstyggelighed: Ørnen, Lammegribben, Havørnen,

And these ye shall have in abomination among the fowls; they shall not be eaten, they are an abomination: the eagle, and the gier eagle, and the ospray;

14 Glenten, de forskellige Arter af Falke,

and the kite, and the falcon after its kind;

15 alle de forskellige Arter af Ravne,

every raven after its kind;

16 Strudsen, Takmasfuglen, Maagen, de forskellige Arter af Høge,

and the ostrich, and the night hawk, and the seamew, and the hawk after its kind;

17 Uglen, Fiskepelikanen, Hornuglen,

and the little owl, and the cormorant, and the great owl;

18 Tinsjemetfuglen, Pelikanen, Aadselgribben,

and the horned owl, and the pelican, and the vulture;

19 Storken, de forskellige Arter af Hejrer, Hærfuglen og Flagermusen.

and the stork, the heron after its kind, and the hoopoe, and the bat.

20 Alt vinget Kryb der gaar paa fire, skal være eder en Vederstyggelighed.

All winged creeping things that go upon all four are an abomination unto you.

21 Af alt det vingede Kryb, som gaar paa fire, maa I dog spise følgende: Dem, der har Skinneben oven over Fødderne til at hoppe med paa Jorden.

Yet these may ye eat of all winged creeping things that go upon all four, which have legs above their feet, to leap withal upon the earth;

22 Af dem maa I spise følgende: De forskellige Arter af Græshopper, Solamgræshopper, Hargolgræshopper og Hagabgræshopper.

even these of them ye may eat; the locust after its kind, and the bald locust after its kind, and the cricket after its kind, and the grasshopper after its kind.

23 Men alt andet vinget Kryb, der gaar paa fire, skal være eder en Vederstyggelighed.

But all winged creeping things, which have four feet, are an abomination unto you.

24 Ved følgende Dyr bliver I urene, enhver, der rører ved Aadslerne af dem, bliver uren til Aften,

And by these ye shall become unclean: whosoever toucheth the carcase of them shall be unclean until the even:

25 og enhver, der bærer et Aadsel af dem, skal tvætte sine Klæder og være uren til Aften:

And whosoever beareth [aught] of the carcase of them shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the even.

26 Alle Dyr, der har Klove, men ikke helt spaltede, og som ikke tygger Drøv, skal være urene; enhver, der rører ved dem, bliver uren.

Every beast which parteth the hoof, and is not clovenfooted, nor cheweth the cud, is unclean unto you: every one that toucheth them shall be unclean.

27 Alle firføddede Dyr, der gaar paa Poter, skal være eder urene; enhver der rører ved et Aadsel af dem, bliver uren til Aften,

And whatsoever goeth upon its paws, among all beasts that go on all four, they are unclean unto you: whoso toucheth their carcase shall be unclean until the even.

28 og den, som bærer et Aadsel af dem, skal tvætte sine Klæder og være uren til Aften; de skal være eder urene.

And he that beareth the carcase of them shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the even: they are unclean unto you.

29 Af Krybet, der kryber paa Jorden, skal følgende være eder urene: Væselen, Musen, de forskellige Arter af Firben,

And these are they which are unclean unto you among the creeping things that creep upon the earth; the weasel, and the mouse, and the great lizard after its kind,

30 Anakaen, Koadyret, Leta'aen, Hometdyret og Tinsjemetdyret.

and the gecko, and the land-crocodile, and the lizard, and the sand-lizard, and the chameleon.

31 Det er dem, som skal være eder urene af alt Krybet. Enhver, der rører ved dem, naar de er døde, skal være uren til Aften;

These are they which are unclean to you among all that creep: whosoever doth touch them, when they are dead, shall be unclean until the even.

32 alt, hvad et dødt Dyr af den Slags falder ned paa, bliver urent, alle Træting, Klæder, Skind, Sække, overhovedet alt, hvad der bruges ved et eller andet Arbejde; det skal lægges i Vand og være urent til Aften; derpaa skal det være rent.

And upon whatsoever any of them, when they are dead, doth fall, it shall be unclean; whether it be any vessel of wood, or raiment, or skin, or sack, whatsoever vessel it be, wherewith any work is done, it must be put into water, and it shall be unclean until the even; then shall it be clean.

33 Og falder et af den Slags ned i et Lerkar, saa bliver alt, hvad der er deri, urent, og ethvert saadant Kar skal I slaa i Stykker;

And every earthen vessel, whereinto any of them falleth, whatsoever is in it shall be unclean, and it ye shall break.

34 alt spiseligt, som man kommer Vand paa, og alt flydende, der tjener til Drikke, bliver urent i et saadant Kar.

All food [therein] which may be eaten, that on which water cometh, shall be unclean: and all drink that may be drunk in every [such] vessel shall be unclean.

35 Alt, hvad et dødt Dyr af den Slags falder ned paa, bliver urent; Ovne og Ildsteder skal nedbrydes, de er urene, og urene skal de være eder.

And every thing whereupon [any part] of their carcase falleth shall be unclean; whether oven, or range for pots, it shall be broken in pieces: they are unclean, and shall be unclean unto you.

36 Dog bliver Kilder og Cisterner, Steder, hvor der samler sig Vand, ved at være rene; men den, der rører ved Aadslerne deri, bliver uren.

Nevertheless a fountain or a pit wherein is a gathering of water shall be clean: but that which toucheth their carcase shall be unclean.

37 Falder et dødt Dyr af den Slags ned paa nogen som helst Slags Sæd, der bruges til Udsæd, bliver denne ved at være ren;

And if [aught] of their carcase fall upon any sowing seed which is to be sown, it is clean.

38 men kommes der Vand paa Sæden, og der saa falder et dødt Dyr af den Slags ned paa den, skal den være eder uren.

But if water be put upon the seed, and [aught] of their carcase fall thereon, it is unclean unto you.

39 Naar noget af det Kvæg, der tjener eder til Føde, dør, skal den, der rører ved den døde Krop, være uren til Aften.

And if any beast, of which ye may eat, die; he that toucheth the carcase thereof shall be unclean until the even.

40 Den, der spiser noget af den døde Krop, skal tvætte sine Klædet og være uren til Aften, og den, der bærer den døde Krop, skal tvætte sine Klæder og være uren til Aften.

And he that eateth of the carcase of it shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the even: he also that beareth the carcase of it shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the even.

41 Alt Kryb, der kryber paa Jorden, er en Vederstyggelighed, det maa ikke spises;

And every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth is an abomination; it shall not be eaten.

42 intet af det, der kryber paa Bugen, og intet af det, der gaar paa fire, saa lidt som det, der har mange Ben, intet af Krybet, der kryber paa Jorden, maa I spise thi det er en Vederstyggelighed.

Whatsoever goeth upon the belly, and whatsoever goeth upon all four, or whatsoever hath many feet, even all creeping things that creep upon the earth, them ye shall not eat; for they are an abomination.

43 Gør ikke eder selv til en Vederstyggelighed ved noget som helst krybende Kryb, gør eder ikke urene derved, saa I bliver urene deraf:

Ye shall not make yourselves abominable with any creeping thing that creepeth, neither shall ye make yourselves unclean with them, that ye should be defiled thereby.

44 thi jeg er HERREN eders Gud, og I skal hellige eder og være hellige, thi jeg er hellig. Gør eder ikke urene ved noget som helst Kryb, der rører sig paa Jorden;

For I am the LORD your God: sanctify yourselves therefore, and be ye holy; for I am holy: neither shall ye defile yourselves with any manner of creeping thing that moveth upon the earth.

45 thi jeg er HERREN, der førte eder op fra Ægypten for at være eders Gud; I skal være hellige, thi jeg er hellig!

For I am the LORD that brought you up out of the land of Egypt, to be your God: ye shall therefore be holy, for I am holy.

46 Det er Loven om Dyr og Fugle og alle levende Væsener, der bevæger sig i Vandet, og alle levende Væsener, der kryber paa Jorden,

This is the law of the beast, and of the fowl, and of every living creature that moveth in the waters, and of every creature that creepeth upon the earth:

47 til Skel mellem det urene og det rene, mellem de Dyr, der maa spises, og dem, der ikke maa spises.

to make a difference between the unclean and the clean, and between the living thing that may be eaten and the living thing that may not be eaten.
