4 Mosebog 31
1 Og HERREN talede til Moses og sagde:
And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
2 »Skaf Israeliterne Hævn over Midjaniterne; saa skal du samles til din Slægt!«
Avenge the sons of Israel of the Midianites. Afterward thou shall be gathered to thy people.
3 Da talte Moses til Folket og sagde: »Udrust Mænd af eders Midte til Kamp, for at de kan falde over Midjan og fuldbyrde HERRENS Hævn paa Midjan;
And Moses spoke to the people, saying, Arm ye men from among you for the war, that they may go against Midian, to execute Jehovah's vengeance on Midian.
4 1000 Mand af hver af Israels Stammer skal I sende i Kamp!«
From every tribe a thousand, throughout all the tribes of Israel, ye shall send to the war.
5 Af Israels Tusinder udtoges da 1000 af hver Stamme, i alt 12 000 Mand, rustede til Kamp.
So there were delivered, out of the thousands of Israel, a thousand of every tribe, twelve thousand armed for war.
6 Og Moses sendte dem i Kamp, 1000 af hver Stamme, og sammen med dem Pinehas, Præsten Eleazars Søn, der medbragte de hellige Redskaber og Alarmtrompeterne.
And Moses sent them, a thousand of every tribe, to the war, them and Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest, to the war, with the vessels of the sanctuary and the trumpets for the alarm in his hand.
7 De drog saa ud i Kamp mod Midjaniterne, som HERREN havde paalagt Moses, og dræbte alle af Mandkøn;
And they warred against Midian as Jehovah commanded Moses, and they killed every male.
8 og foruden de andre, der blev slaaet ihjel, dræbte de ogsaa Midjans Konger, Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur og Reba, Midjans fem Konger; ogsaa Bileam, Beors Søn, dræbte de med Sværdet.
And they killed the kings of Midian with the rest of their slain: Evi, and Rekem, and Zur, and Hur, and Reba, the five kings of Midian. They also killed Balaam the son of Beor with the sword.
9 Og Israeliterne bortførte Midjaniternes Kvinder og Børn som Krigsfanger, og alt deres Kvæg, alle deres Hjorde og alt deres Gods tog de med som Bytte;
And the sons of Israel took captive the women of Midian and their little ones. And all their cattle, and all their flocks, and all their goods, they took for a prey.
10 og alle deres Byer paa de beboede Steder og alle deres Teltlejre stak de Ild paa.
And all their cities in the places in which they dwelt, and all their encampments, they burnt with fire.
11 Og alt det røvede og hele Byttet, baade Mennesker og Dyr, tog de med sig,
And they took all the spoil, and all the prey, both of man and of beast.
12 og de bragte Fangerne, Byttet og det røvede til Moses og Præsten Eleazar og Israeliternes Menighed i Lejren paa Moabs Sletter ved Jordan over for Jeriko.
And they brought the captives, and the prey, and the spoil, to Moses, and to Eleazar the priest, and to the congregation of the sons of Israel, to the camp at the plains of Moab, which are by the Jordan at Jericho.
13 Men Moses, Præsten Eleazar og alle Menighedens Øverste gik dem i Møde uden for Lejren,
And Moses, and Eleazar the priest, and all the rulers of the congregation, went forth to meet them outside the camp.
14 og Moses blev vred paa Hærens Førere, Tusindførerne og Hundredførerne, som kom tilbage fra Krigstoget.
And Moses was angry with the officers of the army, the captains of thousands and the captains of hundreds, who came from the service of the war.
15 Og Moses sagde til dem: »Har I ladet alle Kvinder i Live?
And Moses said to them, Have ye saved all the women alive?
16 Det var jo dem, der efter Bileams Raad blev Aarsag til, at Israeliterne var troløse mod HERREN i den Sag med Peor, saa at Plagen ramte HERRENS Menighed.
Behold, these caused the sons of Israel, through the counsel of Balaam, to commit trespass against Jehovah in the matter of Peor, and so the plague was among the congregation of Jehovah.
17 Dræb derfor alle Drengebørn og alle Kvinder, der har kendt Mand og haft Samleje med Mænd;
Now therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman that has known man by lying with him.
18 men alle Piger, der ikke har haft Samleje med Mænd, skal I lade i Live og beholde,
But all the women-children, who have not known man by lying with him, keep alive for yourselves.
19 Men selv skal I lejre eder uden for Lejren i syv Dage, enhver, som har dræbt nogen, og enhver, som har rørt ved en dræbt, og rense eder paa den tredje og den syvende Dag, baade I selv og eders Krigsfanger.
And encamp ye outside the camp seven days. Whoever has killed any person, and whoever has touched any slain, purify yourselves on the third day and on the seventh day, ye and your captives.
20 Og enhver Klædning, enhver Læderting, alt, hvad der er lavet af Gedehaar, og alle Træredskaber skal I rense!«
And as to every garment, and all that is made of skin, and all work of goats' hair, and all things made of wood, ye shall purify yourselves.
21 Og Præsten Eleazar sagde til Krigerne, der havde været med i Kampen: »Dette er det Lovbud, HERREN har givet Moses:
And Eleazar the priest said to the men of war who went to the battle, This is the statute of the law which Jehovah has commanded Moses:
22 Kun Guld, Sølv, Kobber, Jern, Tin og Bly,
only the gold, and the silver, the brass, the iron, the tin, and the lead-
23 alt, hvad der kan taale Ild, skal I lade gaa gennem Ild, saa bliver det rent; dog maa det renses med Renselsesvand. Men alt, hvad der ikke kan taale Ild, skal I lade gaa gennem Vand.
everything which may go into fire-ye shall make to go through the fire, and it shall be clean. Nevertheless it shall be purified with the water for impurity. And all that may not go into fire ye shall make to go through the water.
24 Og eders klæder skal I tvætte paa den syvende Dag, saa bliver I rene og kan gaa ind i Lejren.«
And ye shall wash your clothes on the seventh day, and ye shall be clean, and afterward ye shall come into the camp.
25 Og HERREN talede til Moses og sagde:
And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
26 »Sammen med Præsten Eleazar og Overhovederne for Menighedens Fædrenehuse skal du opgøre det samlede Bytte, der er taget, baade Mennesker og Dyr.
Take the sum of the prey that was taken, both of man and of beast, thou, and Eleazar the priest, and the heads of the fathers of the congregation,
27 Derefter skal du dele Byttet i to lige store Dele mellem dem, der har taget Del i Krigen og været i Kamp, og hele den øvrige Menighed.
and divide the prey into two parts: between the men skilled in war who went out to battle, and all the congregation.
28 Derpaa skal du udtage en Afgift til HERREN fra Krigerne, der har været i Kamp, et Stykke af hver fem Hundrede, baade af Mennesker, Hornkvæg, Æsler og Smaakvæg;
And levy a tribute to Jehovah of the men of war who went out to battle: one soul of five hundred, both of the persons, and of the oxen, and of the donkeys, and of the flocks.
29 det skal du tage af den Halvdel, som tilfalder dem, og give Præsten Eleazar det som Offerydelse til HERREN.
Take it of their half, and give it to Eleazar the priest, for Jehovah's heave offering.
30 Men af den Halvdel, der tilfalder de andre Israeliter, skal du tage et Stykke af hver halvtredsindstyve, baade af Mennesker, Hornkvæg, Æsler og Smaakvæg, alt Kvæget, og give det til Leviterne, som tager Vare paa, hvad der er at varetage ved HERRENS Bolig!«
And of the sons of Israel's half, thou shall take one drawn out of every fifty, of the persons, of the oxen, of the donkeys, and of the flocks, even of all the cattle, and give them to the Levites, who keep the charge of the tabernacle of Jehovah.
31 Da gjorde Moses og Præsten Eleazar, som HERREN havde paalagt Moses.
And Moses and Eleazar the priest did as Jehovah commanded Moses.
32 Og det, de havde taget, det tiloversblevne af Byttet, som Krigsfolket havde gjort, udgjorde 675 000 Stykker Smaakvæg,
Now the prey, over and above the booty which the men of war took, was six hundred seventy-five thousand sheep,
33 72 000 Stykker Hornkvæg,
and seventy-two thousand oxen,
34 61 000 Æsler
and sixty-one thousand donkeys,
35 og 32 000 Mennesker, Kvinder, der ikke havde haft Samleje med Mænd.
and thirty-two thousand persons in all, of the women who had not known man by lying with him.
36 Den Halvdel, der tilfaldt dem, der havde været i Kamp, udgjorde altsaa et Tal af 337 500 Stykker Smaakvæg,
And the half, which was the portion of those who went out to war, was in number three hundred thirty-seven thousand and five hundred sheep.
37 hvoraf Afgiften til HERREN udgjorde 675 Stykker Smaakvæg,
And Jehovah's tribute of the sheep was six hundred and seventy-five.
38 36 000 Stykker Hornkvæg, hvoraf 72 i Afgift til HERREN,
And the oxen were thirty-six thousand, of which Jehovah's tribute was seventy-two.
39 30 500 Æsler, hvoraf til i Afgift til HERREN,
And the donkeys were thirty thousand and five hundred, of which Jehovah's tribute was sixty-one.
40 og 16 000 Mennesker, hvoraf 32 i Afgift til HERREN.
And the persons were sixteen thousand, of whom Jehovah's tribute was thirty-two persons.
41 Og Moses overgav Afgiften, HERRENS Offerydelse, til Præsten Eleazar, som HERREN havde paalagt Moses.
And Moses gave the tribute, which was Jehovah's heave offering, to Eleazar the priest, as Jehovah commanded Moses.
42 Og af den Halvdel, som tilfaldt de andre Israeliter, og som Moses havde taget som deres del fra de Mænd, der havde været i Kamp —
And of the sons of Israel's half, which Moses divided off from the men who warred
43 denne Menighedens Halvdel udgjorde 337 500 Stykker Smaakvæg,
(now the congregation's half was three hundred thirty-seven thousand and five hundred sheep,
44 36 000 Stykker Hornkvæg,
and thirty-six thousand oxen,
45 30 500 Æsler
and thirty thousand and five hundred donkeys,
46 og 16 000 Mennesker —
and sixteen thousand persons),
47 af den Halvdel, som tilfaldt de andre Israeliter, udtog Moses et Stykke for hver halvtredsindstyve, baade af Mennesker og Kvæg, og gav dem til Leviterne, som tog Vare paa, hvad der var at varetage ved HERRENS Bolig, som HERREN havde paalagt Moses.
even of the sons of Israel's half, Moses took one drawn out of every fifty, both of man and of beast, and gave them to the Levites, who kept the charge of the tabernacle of Jehovah, as Jehovah commanded Moses.
48 Da traadte Førerne for Hærens Afdelinger, Tusindførerne og Hundredførerne, hen til Moses
And the officers who were over the thousands of the army, the captains of thousands, and the captains of hundreds, came near to Moses.
49 og sagde til ham: »Dine Trælle har holdt Mandtal over de Krigere, der stod under os; og der manglede ikke en eneste af os;
And they said to Moses, Thy servants have taken the sum of the men of war that are under our charge, and there lacks not one man of us.
50 derfor frembærer nu enhver af os som Offergave til HERREN, hvad han har taget af Guldsmykker, Armbaand, Spange, Fingerringe, Ørenringe og Halssmykker, for at skaffe os Soning for HERRENS Aasyn.«
And we have brought Jehovah's oblation, what every man has gotten, of jewels of gold, ankle-chains, and bracelets, signet-rings, earrings, and armlets, to make atonement for our souls before Jehovah.
51 Moses og Præsten Eleazar modtog Guldet af dem, alskens med Kunst virkede Smykker;
And Moses and Eleazar the priest took the gold from them, even all wrought jewels.
52 og alt Offerydelsesguldet, som de ydede HERREN, udgjorde 16 750 Sekel, hvilket Tusindførerne og Hundredførerne bragte som Gave.
And all the gold of the heave offering that they offered up to Jehovah, of the captains of thousands, and of the captains of hundreds, was sixteen thousand seven hundred and fifty shekels.
53 Krigerne havde taget Bytte hver for sig.
(For the men of war had taken booty, every man for himself.)
54 Saa modtog Moses og Præsten Eleazar Guldet af Tusindførerne og Hundredførerne og bragte det ind i Aabenbaringsteltet, for at det skulde bringe Israeliterne i Minde for HERRENS Aasyn.
And Moses and Eleazar the priest took the gold of the captains of thousands and of hundreds, and brought it into the tent of meeting, for a memorial for the sons of Israel before Jehovah.
