3 Mosebog 20

1 HERREN talede fremdeles til Moses og sagde:

And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,

2 Sig til Israeliterne: Om nogen af Israeliterne eller de fremmede, der bor hos Israel, giver sit Afkom hen til Molok, da skal han lide Døden; Landets Indbyggere skal stene ham,

'And unto the sons of Israel thou dost say, Any man of the sons of Israel, and of the sojourners who is sojourning in Israel, who giveth of his seed to the Molech, is certainly put to death; the people of the land do stone him with stones;

3 og jeg vender selv mit Aasyn imod den Mand og udrydder ham af hans Folk, fordi han gav sit Afkom hen til Molok for at gøre min Helligdom uren og vanhellige mit hellige Navn;

and I — I set My face against that man, and have cut him off from the midst of his people, for of his seed he hath given to the Molech, so as to defile My sanctuary, and to pollute My holy name.

4 og ser end Landets Indbyggere igennem Fingre med den Mand, naar han giver sit Afkom hen til Molok, og undlader at dræbe ham,

'And if the people of the land really hide their eyes from that man, in his giving of his seed to the Molech, so as not to put him to death,

5 saa vender jeg dog selv mit Aasyn imod den Mand og hans Slægt og udrydder ham og alle dem, der følger i hans Spor og boler med Molok, af deres Folk.

then I have set My face against that man, and against his family, and have cut him off, and all who are going a-whoring after him, even going a-whoring after the Molech, from the midst of their people.

6 Det Menneske, som henvender sig til Genfærd eller Sandsigeraander og boler med dem, mod det Menneske vil jeg vende mit Aasyn og udrydde ham af hans Folk.

'And the person who turneth unto those having familiar spirits, and unto the wizards, to go a-whoring after them, I have even set My face against that person, and cut him off from the midst of his people.

7 Helliger eder og vær hellige; thi jeg er HERREN eders Gud!

'And ye have sanctified yourselves, and ye have been holy, for I [am] Jehovah your God;

8 Hold mine Anordninger og gør efter dem. Jeg er HERREN, som helliger eder!

and ye have kept My statutes and have done them; I [am] Jehovah, sanctifying you.

9 Thi enhver, som forbander sin Fader og sin Moder, skal lide Døden; han har forbandet sin Fader og sin Moder, derfor hviler der Blodskyld paa ham.

'For any man who revileth his father and his mother is certainly put to death; his father and his mother he hath reviled: his blood [is] on him.

10 Om nogen bedriver Hor med en anden Mands Hustru, om nogen bedriver Hor med sin Næstes Hustru, da skal de lide Døden, Horkarlen saavel som Horkvinden.

'And a man who committeth adultery with a man's wife — who committeth adultery with the wife of his neighbour — the adulterer and the adulteress are surely put to death.

11 Om nogen har Samleje med sin Faders Hustru, har han blottet sin Faders Blusel; de skal begge lide Døden, der hviler Blodskyld paa dem.

'And a man who lieth with his father's wife — the nakedness of his father he hath uncovered — both of them are certainly put to death; their blood [is] on them.

12 Om nogen har Samleje med sin Sønnekone, skal de begge lide Døden; de har øvet Skændselsdaad, der hviler Blodskyld paa dem.

'And a man who lieth with his daughter-in-law — both of them are certainly put to death; confusion they have made; their blood [is] on them.

13 Om nogen ligger hos en Mand, paa samme Maade som man ligger hos en Kvinde, da har de begge øvet en Vederstyggelighed; de skal lide Døden, der hviler Blodskyld paa dem.

'And a man who lieth with a male as one lieth with a woman; abomination both of them have done; they are certainly put to death; their blood [is] on them.

14 Om nogen ægter en Kvinde og hendes Moder, er det grov Utugt: man skal brænde baade ham og begge Kvinderne; der maa ikke findes grov Utugt iblandt eder.

'And a man who taketh the woman and her mother — it [is] wickedness; with fire they burn him and them, and there is no wickedness in your midst.

15 Om nogen har Omgang med et Dyr, skal han lide Døden, og Dyret skal I slaa ihjel.

'And a man who giveth his lying with a beast is certainly put to death, and the beast ye do slay.

16 Om en Kvinde kommer noget Dyr nær for at have kønslig Omgang med det, da skal du ihjelslaa baade Kvinden og Dyret; de skal lide Døden, der hviler Blodskyld paa dem.

'And a woman who draweth near unto any beast to lie with it — thou hast even slain the woman and the beast; they are certainly put to death; their blood [is] on them.

17 Om en Mand tager sin Søster, sin Faders eller sin Moders Datter, til Ægte, saa han ser hendes Blusel, og hun hans, da er det en skammelig Gerning; de skal udryddes i deres Landsmænds Paasyn; han har blottet sin Søsters Blusel, han skal undgælde for sin Brøde.

'And a man who taketh his sister, a daughter of his father or daughter of his mother, and he hath seen her nakedness, and she seeth his nakedness: it is a shame; and they have been cut off before the eyes of the sons of their people; the nakedness of his sister he hath uncovered; his iniquity he beareth.

18 Om en Mand har Samleje med en Kvinde under hendes maanedlige Svaghed og blotter hendes Blusel, idet han afdækker hendes Kilde, og hun afdækker sit Blods Kilde, da skal de begge udryddes af deres Folk.

'And a man who lieth with a sick woman, and hath uncovered her nakedness, her fountain he hath made bare, and she hath uncovered the fountain of her blood, — even both of them have been cut off from the midst of their people.

19 Du maa ikke blotte din Mosters og din Fasters Blusel, thi den, der gør det, afdækker sin kødelige Slægtnings Blusel; de skal undgælde for deres Brøde.

'And the nakedness of thy mother's sister, and of thy father's sister, thou dost not uncover; because his relation he hath made bare; their iniquity they bear.

20 Om nogen har Samleje med sin Farbroders Hustru, da har han blottet sin Farbroders Blusel, de skal undgælde for deres Synd og dø barnløse.

'And a man who lieth with his aunt, the nakedness of his uncle he hath uncovered; their sin they bear; childless they die.

21 Om nogen tager sin Broders Hustru til Ægte, da er det en uren Gerning; han har blottet sin Broders Blusel; de skal blive barnløse.

'And a man who taketh his brother's wife — it [is] impurity; the nakedness of his brother he hath uncovered; childless they are.

22 Hold alle mine Anordninger og Lovbud og gør efter dem, at ikke Landet, jeg føler eder ind at bo i, skal udspy eder.

'And ye have kept all My statutes, and all My judgments, and have done them, and the land vomiteth you not out whither I am bringing you in to dwell in it;

23 Følg ikke det Folks Skikke, som jeg driver bort foran eder, thi de har øvet alt dette; derfor væmmedes jeg ved dem

and ye walk not in the statutes of the nation which I am sending away from before you, for all these they have done, and I am wearied with them;

24 og sagde til eder: I skal faa deres Land i Eje; jeg giver eder det i Eje, et Land, der flyder med Mælk og Honning. Jeg er HERREN eders Gud, som har udskilt eder fra alle andre Folkeslag.

and I say to you, Ye — ye do possess their ground, and I — I give it to you to possess it, a land flowing with milk and honey; I [am] Jehovah your God, who hath separated you from the peoples.

25 I skal skelne mellem rene og urene Dyr og mellem urene og rene Fugle for ikke at gøre eder selv til en Vederstyggelighed ved de Dyr og de Fugle og alt, hvad der rører sig paa Jorden, alt, hvad jeg har udskilt for eder og erklæret for urent.

'And ye have made separation between the pure beasts and the unclean, and between the unclean fowl and the pure, and ye do not make yourselves abominable by beast or by fowl, or by anything which creepeth [on] the ground which I have separated to you for unclean;

26 Og I skal være mig hellige, thi jeg HERREN er hellig, og jeg har udskilt eder fra alle andre Folkeslag til at høre mig til.

and ye have been holy to Me; for holy [am] I, Jehovah; and I separate you from the peoples to become Mine.

27 Naar der i en Mand eller Kvinde er en Genfærdsaand eller en Sandsigeraand, skal de lide Døden; de skal stenes, der hviler Blodskyld paa dem.

'And a man or woman — when there is in them a familiar spirit, or who [are] wizards — are certainly put to death; with stones they stone them; their blood [is] on them.'
