4 Mosebog 5
1 HERREN talede fremdeles til Moses og sagde:
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
2 Byd Israeliterne at fjerne alle spedalske fra Lejren, alle, der lider af Flaad, og alle, der er blevet urene ved Lig;
Charge the children of Israel, and let them send forth out of the camp every leper, and every one who has in issue of the reins, and every one who is unclean from a dead body.
3 baade Mænd og Kvinder skal I fjerne og føre uden for Lejren, for at de ikke skal gøre deres Lejr uren, hvor jeg bor midt iblandt dem.
Whether male or female, send them forth out of the camp; and they shall not defile their camps in which I dwell amongst them.
4 Det gjorde Israeliterne saa; de førte dem uden for Lejren, saaledes som HERREN havde paalagt Moses.
And the children of Israel did so, and sent them out of the camp: as the Lord said to Moses, so did the children of Israel.
5 HERREN talede fremdeles til Moses og sagde:
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
6 Sig til Israeliterne: Naar en Mand eller Kvinde begaar nogen af alle de Synder, som Mennesker begaar, saaledes at han gør sig skyldig i Svig mod HERREN, og det Menneske derved paadrager sig Skyld,
Speak to the children of Israel, saying, Every man or woman who shall commit any sin that is common to man, or if that soul shall in anyway have neglected the commandment and transgressed;
7 saa skal de bekende Synden, de har begaaet, og Gerningsmanden skal erstatte det, han har forbrudt sig med, efter dets fulde Værdi med Tillæg af en Femtedel og give det til den, han har forbrudt sig imod.
[that person] shall confess the sin which he has committed, and shall make satisfaction for his trespass: he [shall pay] the principal, and shall add to it the fifth part, and shall make restoration to him against whom he has trespassed.
8 Og hvis denne ikke har efterladt sig nogen Løser, hvem han kan yde Erstatningen, saa skal Erstatningen, som ydes, tilfalde HERREN, det vil sige Præsten, foruden den Soningsvæder, ved hvilken der skaffes ham Soning.
But if a man have no near kinsman, so as to make satisfaction for his trespass to him, the trespass-offering paid to the Lord shall be for the priest, besides the ram of atonement, by which he shall make atonement with it for him.
9 Al Offerydelse, alle Helliggaver, som Israeliterne frembærer til Præsten, skal tilfalde ham.
And every first fruits in all the sanctified things amongst the children of Israel, whatever they shall offer to the Lord, shall be for the priest himself.
10 Alle Helliggaver skal tilfalde ham; hvad nogen giver Præsten, skal tilfalde ham.
And the hallowed things of every man shall be his; and whatever man shall give [any thing] to the priest, the gift shall be his.
11 HERREN talede fremdeles til Moses og sagde:
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
12 Tal til Israeliterne og sig til dem: Naar en Hustru forser sig imod sin Mand og er ham utro,
Speak to the children of Israel, and you shall say to them, Whosesoever wife shall transgress against him, and slight and despise him,
13 idet en anden Mand har Samleje med hende, uden at det er kommet til hendes Mands Kundskab, og uden at det er blevet opdaget, skønt hun har besmittet sig, og uden at der er noget Vidne imod hende, da hun ikke er grebet paa fersk Gerning,
and [supposing] any one shall lie with her carnally, and the thing shall be hid from the eyes of her husband, and she should conceal it and be herself defiled, and there be no witness with her, and she should not be taken;
14 og han gribes af Skinsygens Aand, saa han bliver skinsyg paa sin Hustru, som ogsaa i Virkeligheden har besmittet sig, eller han gribes af Skinsygens Aand, saa han bliver skinsyg paa sin Hustru, skønt hun ikke har besmittet sig,
and there should come upon him a spirit of jealousy, and he should be jealous of his wife, and she be defiled; or there should come upon him a spirit of jealousy, and he should be jealous of his wife, and she should not be defiled;
15 saa skal Manden bringe sin Hustru til Præsten og medbringe som Offergave for hende en Tiendedel Efa Bygmel; han maa hverken hælde Olie over eller komme Røgelse paa, thi det er et Skinsyge Afgrødeoffer, et Minde Afgrødeoffer, der skal minde om Brøde.
then shall the man bring his wife to the priest, and shall bring his gift for her, the tenth part of an ephah of barley-meal: he shall not pour oil upon it, neither shall he put frankincense upon it; for it is a sacrifice of jealousy, a sacrifice of memorial, recalling sin to remembrance.
16 Saa skal Præsten føre hende frem og stille hende for HERRENS Aasyn.
And the priest shall bring her, and cause her to stand before the Lord.
17 Og Præsten skal tage helligt Vand i et Lerkar, og af Støvet paa Boligens Gulv skal Præsten tage noget og komme i Vandet.
And the priest shall take pure running water in an earthen vessel, and he shall take of the dust that is on the floor of the tabernacle of witness, and the priest having taken it shall cast it into the water.
18 Saa skal Præsten stille Kvinden frem for HERRENS Aasyn, løse hendes Haar og lægge Minde Afgrødeofferet i hendes Hænder; det er et Skinsyge Afgrødeoffer; og Præsten skal have den bitre Vandes Forbandelsesvand i Haanden.
And the priest shall cause the woman to stand before the Lord, and shall uncover the head of the woman, and shall put into her hands the sacrifice of memorial, the sacrifice of jealousy; and in the hand of the priest shall be the water of this conviction that brings the curse.
19 Derpaa skal Præsten besværge Kvinden og sige til hende: »Hvis ingen har haft Samleje med dig, hvis du ikke har forset dig imod din Mand og besmittet dig, saa skal dette den bitre Vandes Forbandelsesvand ikke skade dig.
And the priest shall adjure her, and shall say to the woman, If no one has lain with you, and if you have not transgressed so as to be polluted, being under the power of your husband, be free from this water of the conviction that causes the curse.
20 Men har du forset dig imod din Mand og besmittet dig, og har en anden end din Mand haft Samleje med dig« —
But if being a married woman you have transgressed, or been polluted, and any one has lain with you, beside your husband:
21 Præsten besværger nu Kvinden med Forbandelsens Ed og siger til hende — »saa gøre HERREN dig til en Forbandelse og Besværgelse i dit Folk, idet han lader din Lænd visne og din Bug svulme op;
then the priest shall adjure the woman by the oaths of this curse, and the priest shall say to the woman, The Lord bring you into a curse and under an oath in the midst of your people, in that the Lord should cause your thigh to rot and your belly to swell;
22 Forbandelsesvandet her komme ind i dine Indvolde, saa din Bug svulmer op og din Lænd visner!« Og Kvinden skal sige: »Amen, Amen!«
and this water bringing the curse shall enter into your womb to cause your belly to swell, and your thigh to rot. And the woman shall say, So be it, So be it.
23 Derpaa skal Præsten skrive disse Forbandelser op paa et Blad og vaske dem ud i den bitre Vandes Vand
And the priest shall write these curses in a book, and shall blot them out with the water of the conviction that brings the curse.
24 og give Kvinden den bitre Vandes Forbandelsesvand at drikke, for at Forbandelsesvandet kan komme ind i hende til bitter Vaande.
And he shall cause the woman to drink the water of the conviction that brings the curse; and the water of the conviction that brings the curse shall enter into her.
25 Derefter skal Præsten tage Skinsyge Afgrødeofferet af Kvindens Haand, udføre Svingningen dermed for HERRENS Aasyn og bære det hen til Alteret.
And the priest shall take from the hand of the woman the sacrifice of jealousy, and shall present the sacrifice before the Lord, and shall bring it to the altar.
26 Og Præsten skal tage en Haandfuld af Afgrødeofferet, det, som skal ofres deraf, og bringe det som Røgoffer paa Alteret og derpaa give Kvinden Vandet at drikke.
And the priest shall take a handful of the sacrifice as a memorial of it, and shall offer it up upon the altar; and afterwards he shall cause the woman to drink the water.
27 Naar han har givet hende Vandet at drikke, vil Forbandelsesvandet, dersom hun har besmittet sig og været sin Mand utro, blive til bitter Vaande, naar det kommer ind i hende, hendes Bug vil svulme op og hendes Lænd visne, og Kvinden bliver en Forbandelse i sit Folk.
And it shall come to pass, if she be defiled, and have altogether escaped the notice of her husband, then the water of the conviction that brings the curse shall enter into her; and she shall swell in her belly, and her thigh shall rot, and the woman shall be for a curse in the midst of her people.
28 Men dersom Kvinden ikke har besmittet sig, dersom hun er ren, bliver hun uskadt og kan faa Børn.
But if the woman have not been polluted, and be clean, then shall she be guiltless and shall conceive seed.
29 Det er Loven om Skinsyge; naar en Hustru forser sig imod sin Mand og besmittes,
This is the law of jealousy, wherein a married woman should happen to transgress, and be defiled;
30 eller naar en Mand gribes af Skinsygens Aand og bliver skinsyg paa sin Hustru, saa skal han fremstille Hustruen for HERRENS Aasyn, og Præsten skal handle med hende efter alt i denne Lov;
or in the case of a man on whoever the spirit of jealousy should come, and he should be jealous of his wife, and he should place his wife before the Lord, and the priest shall execute towards her all this law.
31 Manden skal være sagesløs, men saadan en Hustru skal undgælde for sin Brøde.
Then the man shall be clear from sin, and that woman shall bear her sin.
