4 Mosebog 3
1 Følgende var Arons og Moses's Efterkommere, paa den Tid HERREN talede paa Sinaj Bjerg.
And these [are] the generations of Aaron and Moses, in the day in which the Lord spoke to Moses in mount Sina.
2 Navnene paa Arons Sønner var følgende: Nadab, den førstefødte, Abihu, Eleazar og Itamar;
And these [are] the names of the sons of Aaron; Nadab the firstborn; and Abiud, Eleazar and Ithamar.
3 det var Navnene paa Arons Sønner, de salvede Præster, som indsattes til Præstetjeneste.
These [are] the names of the sons of Aaron, the anointed priests whom they consecrated to the priesthood.
4 Men Nadab og Abihu døde for HERRENS Aasyn, da de frembar fremmed Ild for HERRENS Aasyn i Sinaj Ørken, og de havde ingen Sønner. Saaledes kom Eleazar og Itamar til at gøre Præstetjeneste for deres Fader Arons Aasyn.
And Nadab and Abiud died before the Lord, when they offered strange fire before the Lord, in the wilderness of Sina; and they had no children; and Eleazar and Ithamar ministered in the priests' office with Aaron their father.
5 HERREN talede til Moses og sagde:
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
6 Lad Levis Stamme træde frem og stil dem frem for Præsten Aron, for at de kan gaa ham til Haande.
Take the tribe of Levi, and you shall set them before Aaron the priest, and they shall minister to him,
7 De skal tage Vare paa, hvad han og hele Menigheden har at varetage foran Aabenbaringsteltet, og saaledes udføre Arbejdet ved Boligen,
and shall keep his charges, and the charges of the children of Israel, before the tabernacle of witness, to do the works of the tabernacle.
8 og de skal tage Vare paa alle Aabenbaringsteltets Redskaber og paa, hvad Israeliterne har at varetage, og saaledes udføre Arbejdet ved Boligen.
And they shall keep all the furniture of the tabernacle of witness, and the charges of the children of Israel as to all the works of the tabernacle.
9 Altsaa skal du overgive Aron og hans Sønner Leviterne; de er ham overgivet som Gave fra Israeliterne.
And you shall give the Levites to Aaron, and to his sons the priests; they are given for a gift to me of the children of Israel.
10 Men Aron og hans Sønner skal du sætte til at tage Vare paa deres Præstetjeneste; enhver Lægmand, som trænger sig ind deri, skal lide Døden.
And you shall appoint Aaron and his sons over the tabernacle of witness; and they shall keep their charge of priesthood, and all things belonging to the altar, and within the veil; and the stranger that touches them shall die.
11 HERREN talede til Moses og sagde:
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
12 Se, jeg har selv udtaget Leviterne af Israeliternes Midte i Stedet for alt det førstefødte, der aabner Moders Liv hos Israeliterne, og Leviterne er blevet min Ejendom;
Behold, I have taken the Levites from the midst of the children of Israel, instead of every male that opens the womb from among the children of Israel: they shall be their ransom, and the Levites shall be mine.
13 thi mig tilhører alt det førstefødte. Dengang jeg dræbte alt det førstefødte i Ægypten, helligede jeg mig alt det førstefødte i Israel, baade af Mennesker og Dyr; mig HERREN skal de tilhøre.
For every firstborn [is] mine; in the day in which I struck every firstborn in the land of Egypt, I sanctified to myself every firstborn in Israel: both of man and beast, they shall be mine: I [am] the Lord.
14 HERREN talede til Moses i Sinaj Ørken og sagde:
