3 Mosebog 19
1 HERREN talede fremdeles til Moses og sagde:
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 all the congregation of the children of Israel, and tell 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!
“‘Each one of you shall respect his mother and his father. 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!
“‘Don’t turn to idols, nor make molten gods for yourselves. I am the LORD your God.
5 Naar I ofrer Takoffer til HERREN, skal I ofre det saaledes, at I kan vinde Guds Velbehag.
“‘When you offer a sacrifice of peace offerings to the LORD, you shall offer it so that you may be accepted.
6 Den Dag, I ofrer det, og Dagen efter maa det spises, men hvad der levnes til den tredje Dag, skal opbrændes;
It shall be eaten the same day you offer it, and on the next day. If anything remains until the third day, it shall be burnt with fire.
7 spises det den tredje Dag, er det at regne for raaddent Kød og vinder ikke Guds Velbehag;
If it is eaten at all on the third day, it is an abomination. It will 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.
but everyone who eats it shall bear his iniquity, because he has profaned the holy thing of the LORD, and that soul shall be cut off from his 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.
“‘When you reap the harvest of your land, you shall not wholly reap the corners of your field, neither shall you gather the gleanings of your harvest.
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!
You shall not glean your vineyard, neither shall you gather the fallen grapes of your vineyard. You shall leave them for the poor and for the foreigner. I am the LORD your God.

“‘You shall not oppress your neighbour, nor rob him. “‘The wages of a hired servant shall not remain with you all night 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 curse the deaf, nor put a stumbling block before the blind; but you shall fear your God. I am the LORD.
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 do no injustice in judgement. You shall not be partial to the poor, nor show favouritism to the great; but you shall judge your neighbour in righteousness.
16 Du maa ikke gaa rundt og bagvaske din Landsmand eller staa din Næste efter Livet. Jeg er HERREN!
“‘You shall not go around as a slanderer amongst your people. “‘You shall not endanger the life of your neighbour. I am the LORD.
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 surely rebuke your neighbour, and not bear sin because of him.
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!

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 keep my statutes. “‘You shall not cross-breed different kinds of animals. “‘You shall not sow your field with two kinds of seed; “‘Don’t wear a garment made of two kinds of material.
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.

He shall bring his trespass offering to the LORD, to the door of the Tent of Meeting, even 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.
The priest shall make atonement for him with the ram of the trespass offering before the LORD for his sin which he has committed; and the sin which he has committed 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;
“‘When you come into the land, and have planted all kinds of trees for food, then you shall count their fruit as forbidden. For three years it shall be forbidden to you. It shall not be eaten.
24 det fjerde Aar skal al deres Frugt under Høstjubel helliges HERREN;
But in the fourth year all its fruit shall be holy, for giving 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!
In the fifth year you shall eat its fruit, that it may yield its increase to you. I am the LORD your God.

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 who lives as a foreigner with you shall be to you as the native-born amongst you, and you shall love him as yourself; for you lived as foreigners 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 do no unrighteousness in judgement, in measures of length, of weight, or of quantity.
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!
You shall have just balances, just weights, a just efah, and a just hin. 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!
“‘You shall observe all my statutes and all my ordinances, and do them. I am the LORD.’”
