28 Og det øvrige Folk, Præsterne, Leviterne, Dørvogterne, Sangerne, Tempeltrællene og alle de, der har skilt sig ud fra Hedningerne for at holde sig til Guds Lov, med deres Hustruer, Sønner og Døtre, for saa vidt de har Forstand til at fatte det,
As for the rest of the people, who were priests, Levites, gatekeepers, singers, temple servants, and all who had separated themselves from the people of the neighboring lands and pledged themselves to the law of God, including their wives, their sons and their daughters, all who have knowledge and understanding,
29 slutter sig til deres højere staaende Brødre og underkaster sig Forbandelsen og Eden om at ville følge Guds Lov, der er givet os ved Guds Tjener Moses, og overholde og udføre alle HERRENS, vor Herres, Bud, Bestemmelser og Anordninger:
they joined together with their brothers, their nobles, and bound themselves with both a curse and an oath to walk in God's law, which was given by Moses the servant of God, and to observe and obey all the commandments of Yahweh our Lord and his decrees and his statutes.
30 Vi vil ikke give Hedningerne i Landet vore Døtre eller tage deres Døtre til Hustruer for vore Sønner;
We promised that we would not give our daughters to the people of the land or take their daughters for our sons.
31 vi vil ikke paa Sabbaten eller nogen Helligdag købe noget af Hedningerne i Landet, naar de paa Sabbaten kommer med deres Varer og al Slags Korn og falbyder det; vi vil hvert syvende Aar lade Landet ligge hen og give Afkald paa enhver Fordring;
We also promised that if the people of the land bring goods or any grain to sell on the Sabbath day, we would not buy from them on the Sabbath or on any holy day. Every seventh year we will let our fields rest, and we will cancel all debts.
32 vi vil paatage os en aarlig Skat paa en Tredjedel Sekel til Tjenesten i vor Guds Hus,
We accepted the commands to give a third of a shekel each year for the service of the house of our God,
33 til Skuebrødene, det daglige Afgrødeoffer, det daglige Brændoffer, Ofrene paa Sabbaterne, Nymaanedagene og Højtiderne, Helligofrene og Syndofrene til Soning for Israel og til alt Arbejde ved vor Guds Hus.
to provide for the bread of the presence, and for the regular grain offering, the burnt offerings on the Sabbaths, the new moon festivals and appointed feasts, and for the holy offerings, and for the sin offerings to make atonement for Israel, as well as for all the work of the house of our God.
34 Hvad Brænde der ydes, har vi, Præsterne, Leviterne og Folket, kastet Lod om at bringe til vor Guds Hus, Fædrenehus for Fædrenehus, til fastsat Tid Aar efter Aar for at skaffe Ild paa HERREN vor Guds Alter, som det er foreskrevet i Loven.
The priests, the Levites, and the people cast lots for the wood offering. The lots would select which of our families would bring wood into the house of our God at the appointed times each year, to be burned on the altar of Yahweh our God, as it is written in the law.
35 Vi vil Aar for Aar bringe Førstegrøden af vor Jord og af alle Frugttræer til HERRENS Hus,
We promised to bring to the house of Yahweh the firstfruits grown from our soil, and the firstfruits of every tree each year.
36 og vi vil bringe det førstefødte af vore Sønner og vort Kvæg, som det er foreskrevet i Loven, og det førstefødte af vort Hornkvæg og Smaakvæg til vor Guds Hus til Præsterne, som gør Tjeneste i vor Guds Hus;
As it is written in the law, we promised to bring to the house of God and to the priests who serve there, the firstborn of our sons and of our herds and flocks.
37 og Førstegrøden af vort Grovmel og af Frugten af alle Slags Træer, af Most og Olie vil vi bringe til Kamrene i vor Guds Hus til Præsterne og Tienden af vore Marker til Leviterne. Leviterne samler selv Tienden ind i alle de Byer, hvor vi har vort Agerbrug;
We will bring the first of our dough and our grain offerings, and the fruit of every tree, and the new wine and the oil we will bring to the priests, to the storerooms of the house of our God. We will bring to the Levites the tithes from our soil because the Levites collect the tithes in all the towns where we work.
38 og Præsten, Arons Søn, er til Stede hos Leviterne, naar de indsamler Tienden; og Leviterne bringer Tiende af Tienden til vor Guds Hus, til Forraadshusets Kamre.
A priest, a descendant of Aaron, must be with the Levites when they receive the tithes. The Levites must bring a tenth of the tithes to the house of our God to the storerooms of the treasury.
39 Thi Israeliterne og Levis Efterkommere bringer Offerydelsen af Kornet, Mosten og Olien til Kamrene, hvor Helligdommens Kar og de tjenstgørende Præster, Dørvogterne og Sangerne er. Vi vil saaledes ikke svigte vor Guds Hus.
For the people of Israel and the descendants of Levi are to bring the contributions of grain, new wine, and oil to the storerooms where the articles of the sanctuary are kept and where the priests who are serving, and the gatekeepers, and the singers stay. We will not neglect the house of our God.
