4 Mosebog 5
1 HERREN talede fremdeles til Moses og sagde:
And YHWH speaks 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;
“Command the sons of Israel, and they send out of the camp every leper, and everyone with discharging, and everyone defiled by a 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.
you send out from male even to female; you send them to the outside of the camp and they do not defile their camps in the midst of which I dwell.”
4 Det gjorde Israeliterne saa; de førte dem uden for Lejren, saaledes som HERREN havde paalagt Moses.
And the sons of Israel do so, and they send them out to the outside of the camp; as YHWH has spoken to Moses so the sons of Israel have done.
5 HERREN talede fremdeles til Moses og sagde:
And YHWH speaks 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 sons of Israel: Man or woman, when they do any of the sins of man, by committing a trespass against YHWH, and that person [is] guilty,
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.
and they have confessed their sin which they have done, then he has restored his guilt in its principal, and is adding its fifth to it, and has given [it] to him in reference to whom he has been guilty.
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.
And if the man has no redeemer to restore the guilt to, the guilt which is restored [is] to YHWH for the priest, apart from the ram of the atonements, whereby he makes atonement for him.
9 Al Offerydelse, alle Helliggaver, som Israeliterne frembærer til Præsten, skal tilfalde ham.
And every raised-offering of all the holy things of the sons of Israel, which they bring near to the priest, becomes his;
10 Alle Helliggaver skal tilfalde ham; hvad nogen giver Præsten, skal tilfalde ham.
and any man’s hallowed things become his; that which any man gives to the priest becomes his.”
11 HERREN talede fremdeles til Moses og sagde:
And YHWH speaks 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 sons of Israel, and you have said to them: When any man’s wife turns aside, and has committed a trespass against 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 a man has lain with her [with] the seed [from] intercourse, and it has been hid from the eyes of her husband, and concealed, and she has been defiled, and there is no witness against her, and she has not been caught,
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 a spirit of jealousy has passed over him, and he has been jealous [for] his wife, and she has been defiled—or a spirit of jealousy has passed over him, and he has been jealous [for] his wife, and she has not been 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 the man has brought in his wife to the priest, and he has brought in her offering for her—a tenth of the ephah of barley meal; he does not pour oil on it, nor does he put frankincense on it, for it [is] a present of jealousy, a present of memorial, causing remembrance of iniquity.
16 Saa skal Præsten føre hende frem og stille hende for HERRENS Aasyn.
And the priest has brought her near, and has caused her to stand before YHWH,
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 has taken holy water in an earthen vessel, and the priest takes of the dust which is on the floor of the Dwelling Place, and has put [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 has caused the woman to stand before YHWH, and has uncovered the woman’s head, and has given the present of the memorial into her hands (it [is] a present of jealousy), and the bitter waters which cause the curse are in the hand of the priest.
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 has caused her to swear, and has said to the woman, If no man has lain with you, and if you have not turned aside [to] uncleanness under your husband, be free from these bitter waters which cause 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« —
and you, if you have turned aside under your husband, and if you have been defiled, and a man commits his intercourse with you besides 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 has caused the woman to swear with an oath of execration, and the priest has said to the woman—YHWH gives you for an execration and for a curse in the midst of your people, in YHWH’s giving your thigh to fall 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 these waters which cause the curse have gone into your bowels to cause the belly to swell and the thigh to fall; and the woman has said, Amen, Amen.
23 Derpaa skal Præsten skrive disse Forbandelser op paa et Blad og vaske dem ud i den bitre Vandes Vand
And the priest has written these execrations in a scroll, and has blotted [them] out with the bitter waters,
24 og give Kvinden den bitre Vandes Forbandelsesvand at drikke, for at Forbandelsesvandet kan komme ind i hende til bitter Vaande.
and has caused the woman to drink the bitter waters which cause the curse, and the waters which cause the curse have entered into her for bitter things.
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 has taken the present of jealousy out of the hand of the woman, and has waved the present before YHWH, and has brought it near 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 has taken a handful of the present, its memorial, and has made incense on the altar, and afterward causes 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.
indeed, he has caused her to drink the water, and it has come to pass, if she has been defiled and commits a trespass against her husband, that the waters which cause the curse have gone into her for bitter things, and her belly has swelled, and her thigh has fallen, and the woman has become an execration 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.
And if the woman has not been defiled, and is clean, then she has been acquitted, and has been sown [with] seed.
29 Det er Loven om Skinsyge; naar en Hustru forser sig imod sin Mand og besmittes,
This [is] the law of jealousies when a wife turns aside under her husband and has been 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 when a spirit of jealousy passes over a man and he has been jealous of his wife, then he has caused the woman to stand before YHWH, and the priest has done to her all this law,
31 Manden skal være sagesløs, men saadan en Hustru skal undgælde for sin Brøde.
and the man has been acquitted from iniquity, and that woman bears her iniquity.”
