3 Mosebog 19
1 HERREN talede fremdeles til Moses og sagde:
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
2 Tal til hele Israeliternes Menighed og sig til dem: I skal være hellige, thi jeg HERREN eders Gud er hellig!
Speak to the congregation of the children of Israel, and you shall say to them, You shall be holy; for I the Lord your God [am] holy.
3 I skal frygte hver sin Moder og sin Fader, og mine Sabbater skal I holde. Jeg er HERREN eders Gud!
Let every one of you reverence his father and his mother; and you shall keep my sabbaths: I [am] the Lord your God.
4 Vend eder ikke til Afguderne og gør eder ikke støbte Gudebilleder! Jeg er HERREN eders Gud!
You shall not follow idols, and you shall not make to yourselves molten gods: I [am] the Lord your God.
5 Naar I ofrer Takoffer til HERREN, skal I ofre det saaledes, at I kan vinde Guds Velbehag.
And if you will sacrifice a peace-offering to the Lord, you shall offer it acceptable from yourselves.
6 Den Dag, I ofrer det, og Dagen efter maa det spises, men hvad der levnes til den tredje Dag, skal opbrændes;
In what day soever you shall sacrifice it, it shall be eaten; and on the following day, and if any of it should be left till the third day, it shall be thoroughly burnt with fire.
7 spises det den tredje Dag, er det at regne for raaddent Kød og vinder ikke Guds Velbehag;
And if it should be at all eaten on the third day, it is unfit for sacrifice: it shall not be accepted.
8 den, der spiser deraf, skal undgælde for sin Brøde, thi han vanhelliger det, som var helliget HERREN, og det Menneske skal udryddes af sin Slægt.
And he that eats it shall bear his iniquity, because he has profaned the holy things of the Lord; and the souls that eat it shall be destroyed from amongst their people.
9 Naar I høster eders Lands Høst, maa du ikke høste helt hen til Kanten af din Mark, ej heller maa du sanke Efterslætten efter din Høst.
And when you reap the harvest of your land, you shall not complete the reaping of your field with exactness, and you shall not gather that which falls from your reaping.
10 Heller ikke maa du holde Efterhøst eller sanke de nedfaldne Bær i din Vingaard; til den fattige og den fremmede skal du lade det blive tilbage. Jeg er HERREN eders Gud!
And you shall not go over the gathering of your vineyard, neither shall you gather the remaining grapes of your vineyard: you shall leave them for the poor and the stranger: I am the Lord your God.
11 I maa ikke stjæle, I maa ikke lyve, I maa ikke bedrage hverandre.
You shall not steal, you shall not lie, neither shall one bear false witness as an informer against his neighbour.
12 I maa ikke sværge falsk ved mit Navn, saa du vanhelliger din Guds Navn. Jeg er HERREN!
And you shall not swear unjustly by my name, and you shall not profane the holy name of your God: I am the Lord your God.
13 Du maa intet aftvinge din Næste, du maa intet røve; Daglejerens Løn maa ikke blive hos dig Natten over.
You shall not injure your neighbour, neither do you rob [him], neither shall the wages of your hireling remain with you until the morning.
14 Du maa ikke forbande den døve eller lægge Stød for den blindes Fod, du skal frygte din Gud. Jeg er HERREN!
You shall not revile the deaf, neither shall you put a stumbling block in the way of the blind; and you shall fear the Lord your God: I am the Lord your God.
15 I maa ikke øve Uret, naar I holder Rettergang; du maa ikke begunstige den ringe, ej heller tage Parti for den store, men du skal dømme din Næste med Retfærdighed.
You shall not act unjustly in judgement: you shall not accept the person of the poor, nor admire the person of the mighty; with justice shall you judge your neighbour.
16 Du maa ikke gaa rundt og bagvaske din Landsmand eller staa din Næste efter Livet. Jeg er HERREN!
You shall not walk deceitfully amongst your people; you shall not rise up against the blood of your neighbour: I am the Lord your God.
17 Du maa ikke bære Nag til din Broder i dit Hjerte, men du skal tale din Næste til Rette, at du ikke skal paadrage dig Synd for hans Skyld.
You shall not hate your brother in your heart: you shall in any wise rebuke your neighbour, so you shall not bear sin on his account.
18 Du maa ikke hævne dig eller gemme paa Vrede mod dit Folks Børn, du skal elske din Næste som dig selv. Jeg er HERREN!
And your hand shall not avenge you; and you shall not be angry with the children of your people; and you shall love your neighbour as yourself; I am the Lord.
19 Hold mine Anordninger! Du maa ikke lade to Slags Kvæg parre sig med hinanden; du maa ikke saa to Slags Sæd i din Mark; og du maa ikke bære Klæder, der er vævede af to Slags Garn.
You shall observe my law: you shall not let your cattle gender with one of a different kind, and you shall not sow your vineyard with diverse seed; and you shall not put upon yourself a mingled garment woven of two [materials].
20 Naar en Mand har Samleje med en Kvinde, og det er en Trælkvinde, en anden Mands Medhustru, som ikke er løskøbt eller frigivet, saa skal Afstraffelse finde Sted; dog skal de ikke lide Døden, thi hun var ikke frigivet.
And if any one lie carnally with a woman, and she should be a home-servant kept for a man, and she has not been ransomed, [and] her freedom has not been given to her, they shall be visited [with punishment]; but they shall not die, because she was not set at liberty.
21 Og han skal bringe sit Skyldoffer for HERREN til Aabenbaringsteltets Indgang, en Skyldoffervæder,
And he shall bring for his trespass to the Lord to the door of the tabernacle of witness, a ram for a trespass-offering.
22 og Præsten skal med Skyldoffervæderen skaffe ham Soning for HERRENS Aasyn for den Synd, han har begaaet, saa han finder Tilgivelse for den Synd, han har begaaet.
And the priest shall make atonement for him with the ram of the trespass-offering, before the Lord, for the sin which he sinned; and the sin which he sinned shall be forgiven him.
23 Naar I kommer ind i Landet og planter alskens Frugttræer, skal I lade deres Forhud, den første Frugt, urørt; i tre Aar skal de være eder uomskaarne og maa ikke spises;
And whenever you shall enter into the land which the Lord your God gives you, and shall plant any fruit tree, then shall you purge away its uncleanness; its fruit shall be three years uncleansed to you, it shall not be eaten.
24 det fjerde Aar skal al deres Frugt under Høstjubel helliges HERREN;
And in the fourth year all its fruit shall be holy, a subject of praise to the Lord.
25 først det femte Aar maa I spise deres Frugt, for at I kan faa saa meget større Udbytte deraf. Jeg er HERREN eders Gud!
And in the fifth year you shall eat the fruit, its produce is an increase to you. I am the Lord your God.
26 I maa ikke spise noget med Blodet i. I maa ikke give eder af med at tage Varsler og øve Trolddom.
Eat not on the mountains, nor shall you employ auguries, nor divine by inspection of birds.
27 I maa ikke runde Haaret paa Tindingerne; og du maa ikke studse dit Skæg;
You shall not make a round cutting of the hair of your head, nor disfigure your beard.
28 I maa ikke gøre Indsnit i eders Legeme for de dødes Skyld eller indridse Tegn paa eder. Jeg er HERREN!
And you shall not make cuttings in your body for a [dead] body, and you shall not inscribe on yourselves any marks. I am the Lord your God.
29 Du maa ikke vanhellige din Datter ved at lade hende bedrive Hor, for at ikke Landet skal forfalde til Horeri og fyldes med Utugt.
You shall not profane your daughter to prostitute her; so the land shall not go a whoring, and the land be filled with iniquity.
30 Mine Sabbater skal I holde, og min Helligdom skal I frygte. Jeg er HERREN!
You shall keep my sabbaths, and reverence my sanctuaries: I am the Lord.
31 Henvend eder ikke til Genfærd og Sandsigeraander; søg dem ikke, saa I gør eder urene ved dem. Jeg er HERREN eders Gud!
You shall not attend to those who have in them divining spirits, nor attach yourselves to enchanters, to pollute yourselves with them: I am the Lord your God.
32 Du skal rejse dig for de graa Haar og ære Oldingen, og du skal frygte din Gud. Jeg er HERREN!
You shall rise up before the hoary head, and honour the face of the old man, and shall fear your God: I am the Lord your God.
33 Naar en fremmed bor hos dig i eders Land, maa I ikke lade ham lide Overlast;
And if there should come to you a stranger in your land, you shall not afflict him.
34 som en af eders egne skal I regne den fremmede, der bor hos eder, og du skal elske ham som dig selv, thi I var selv fremmede i Ægypten. Jeg et HERREN eders Guld!
The stranger that comes to you shall be amongst you as the native, and you shall love him as yourself; for you were strangers in the land of Egypt: I am the Lord your God.
35 Naar I holder Rettergang, maa I ikke øve Uret ved Længdemaal, Vægt eller Rummaal;
You shall not act unrighteously in judgement, in measures and weights and scales.
36 Vægtskaale, der vejer rigtigt, Lodder, der holder Vægt, Efa og Hin, der holder Maal, skal I have. Jeg er HERREN eders Gud, som førte eder ud af Ægypten!
There shall be amongst you just balances and just weights and just liquid measure. I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt.
37 Hold alle mine Anordninger og Lovbud og gør efter dem. Jeg er HERREN!
And you shall keep all my law and all my ordinances, and you shall do them: I am the Lord your God.
