4 Mosebog 9
1 HERREN talede saaledes til Moses i Sinaj Ørken i den første Maaned af det andet Aar efter deres Udvandring fra Ægypten:
And the LORD spoke unto Moses in the wilderness of Sinai, in the first month of the second year after they were come out of the land of Egypt, saying:
2 Israeliterne skal fejre Paasken til den fastsatte Tid,
'Let the children of Israel keep the passover in its appointed season.
3 paa den fjortende Dag i denne Maaned ved Aftenstid skal I fejre den til den fastsatte Tid; overensstemmende med alle Anordningerne og Lovbudene om den skal I fejre den!
In the fourteenth day of this month, at dusk, ye shall keep it in its appointed season; according to all the statutes of it, and according to all the ordinances thereof, shall ye keep it.'
4 Da sagde Moses til Israeliterne, at de skulde fejre Paasken;
And Moses spoke unto the children of Israel, that they should keep the passover.
5 og de fejrede Paasken i Sinaj Ørken den fjortende Dag i den første Maaned ved Aftenstid; nøjagtigt som HERREN havde paalagt Moses, saaledes gjorde Israeliterne.
And they kept the passover in the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month, at dusk, in the wilderness of Sinai; according to all that the LORD commanded Moses, so did the children of Israel.
6 Men der var nogle Mænd, som var blevet urene ved et Lig og derfor ikke kunde fejre Paaske den Dag. Disse Mænd traadte nu den Dag frem for Moses og Aron
But there were certain men, who were unclean by the dead body of a man, so that they could not keep the passover on that day; and they came before Moses and before Aaron on that day.
7 og sagde til ham: »Vi er blevet urene ved et Lig; hvorfor skal det da være os forment at frembære HERRENS Offergave til den fastsatte Tid sammen med de andre Israeliter?«
And those men said unto him: 'We are unclean by the dead body of a man; wherefore are we to be kept back, so as not to bring the offering of the LORD in its appointed season among the children of Israel?'
8 Moses svarede dem: »Vent, til jeg faar at høre, hvad HERREN paabyder angaaende eder!«
And Moses said unto them: 'Stay ye, that I may hear what the LORD will command concerning you.'
9 Da talede HERREN til Moses og sagde:
And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying:
10 Tal til Israeliterne og sig: Naar nogen af eder eller eders Efterkommere er blevet uren ved et Lig eller er ude paa en lang Rejse, skal han alligevel holde Paaske for HERREN;
'Speak unto the children of Israel, saying: If any man of you or of your generations shall be unclean by reason of a dead body, or be in a journey afar off, yet he shall keep the passover unto the LORD;
11 den fjortende Dag i den anden Maaned ved Aftenstid skal de holde den; med usyret Brød og bitre Urter skal de spise Paaskelammet.
in the second month on the fourteenth day at dusk they shall keep it; they shall eat it with unleavened bread and bitter herbs;
12 De maa intet levne deraf til næste Morgen, og de maa ikke sønderbryde noget af dets Ben. De skal fejre Paasken i Overensstemmelse med alle de Anordninger, som gælder for den.
they shall leave none of it unto the morning, nor break a bone thereof; according to all the statute of the passover they shall keep it.
13 Men den, som undlader at fejre Paasken, skønt han er ren og ikke paa Rejse, det Menneske skal udryddes af sin Slægt, fordi han ikke har frembaaret HERRENS Offergave til den fastsatte Tid. Den Mand skal undgælde for sin Synd.
But the man that is clean, and is not on a journey, and forbeareth to keep the passover, that soul shall be cut off from his people; because he brought not the offering of the LORD in its appointed season, that man shall bear his sin.
14 Og naar en fremmed, der bor hos eder, vil holde Paaske for HERREN, skal han holde den efter de Anordninger og Lovbud, som gælder for Paasken. En og samme Lov skal gælde for eder, for den fremmede og for den indfødte.
And if a stranger shall sojourn among you, and will keep the passover unto the LORD: according to the statute of the passover, and according to the ordinance thereof, so shall he do; ye shall have one statute, both for the stranger, and for him that is born in the land.'
15 Den Dag Boligen blev rejst, dækkede Skyen Boligen, Vidnesbyrdets Telt; men om Aftenen var der som et Ildskær over Boligen, og det holdt sig til om Morgenen.
And on the day that the tabernacle was reared up the cloud covered the tabernacle, even the tent of the testimony; and at even there was upon the tabernacle as it were the appearance of fire, until morning.
16 Saaledes var det til Stadighed: Om Dagen dækkede Skyen den, om Natten Ildskæret.
So it was alway: the cloud covered it, and the appearance of fire by night.
17 Hver Gang Skyen løftede sig fra Teltet, brød Israeliterne op, og der, hvor Skyen stod stille, slog Israeliterne Lejr.
And whenever the cloud was taken up from over the Tent, then after that the children of Israel journeyed; and in the place where the cloud abode, there the children of Israel encamped.
18 Paa HERRENS Bud brød Israeliterne op, og paa HERRENS Bud gik de i Lejr, og saa længe Skyen hvilede over Boligen, blev de liggende i Lejr;
At the commandment of the LORD the children of Israel journeyed, and at the commandment of the LORD they encamped: as long as the cloud abode upon the tabernacle they remained encamped.
19 naar Skyen blev over Boligen i længere Tid, rettede Israeliterne sig efter, hvad HERREN havde foreskrevet dem, og brød ikke op.
And when the cloud tarried upon the tabernacle many days, then the children of Israel kept the charge of the LORD, and journeyed not.
20 Det hændte, at Skyen kun blev nogle faa Dage over Boligen; da gik de i Lejr paa HERRENS Bud og brød op paa HERRENS Bud.
And sometimes the cloud was a few days upon the tabernacle; according to the commandment of the LORD they remained encamped, and according to the commandment of the LORD they journeyed.
21 Og det hændte, at Skyen kun blev der fra Aften til Morgen; naar Skyen da løftede sig om Morgenen, brød de op. Eller den blev der en Dag og en Nat; naar Skyen da løftede sig, brød de op.
And sometimes the cloud was from evening until morning; and when the cloud was taken up in the morning, they journeyed; or if it continued by day and by night, when the cloud was taken up, they journeyed.
22 Eller den blev der et Par Dage eller en Maaned eller længere endnu, idet Skyen i længere Tid hvilede over Boligen; saa blev Israeliterne liggende i Lejr og brød ikke op, men naar den løftede sig, brød de op.
Whether it were two days, or a month, or a year, that the cloud tarried upon the tabernacle, abiding thereon, the children of Israel remained encamped, and journeyed not; but when it was taken up, they journeyed.
23 Paa HERRENS Bud gik de i Lejr, og paa HERRENS Bud brød de op; de rettede sig efter, hvad HERREN havde foreskrevet dem, efter HERRENS Bud ved Moses.
At the commandment of the LORD they encamped, and at the commandment of the LORD they journeyed; they kept the charge of the LORD, at the commandment of the LORD by the hand of Moses.
