3 Mosebog 22
1 HERREN talede fremdeles til Moses og sagde:
The Lord told Moses,
2 Sig til Aron og hans Sønner, at de skal behandle Israeliternes Helliggaver, som de helliger mig, med Erefrygt, for at de ikke skal vanhellige mit hellige Navn. Jeg er HERREN!
“Tell Aaron and his sons to be dedicated when dealing with the holy offerings that the Israelites have dedicated to me, so that they don't dishonor my holy character. I am the Lord.
3 Sig til dem: Enhver af alle eders Efterkommere, som i de kommende Slægter i uren Tilstand kommer de Helliggaver nær, Israeliterne helliger HERREN, det Menneske skal udryddes fra mit Åsyn. Jeg er HERREN!
Tell them: These rules apply for all future generations. If any of your descendants in an unclean state comes close to the holy offerings that the Israelites dedicate to honor the Lord, that person must be expelled from my presence. I am the Lord.
4 Ingen af Arons Efterkommere, der er spedalsk eller lider af Flåd, må spise noget af Helliggaverne, før han bliver ren; den, der rører ved en, som er uren ved Lig, eller den, fra hvem der går Sæd,
If one of Aaron's descendants has a skin disease or a discharge, he is not allowed to eat the holy offerings until he is clean. Anyone who touches anything made unclean by a dead body or by a man who has had a release of semen,
5 eller den, der rører ved noget Slags Kryb, ved hvilket man bliver uren, eller ved et Menneske, ved hvem man bliver uren, af hvad Art hans Urenhed være kan,
or anyone who touches an unclean animal or an unclean person, (whatever the uncleanness is),
6 enhver, der rører ved noget sådant, skal være uren til Aften og må ikke spise af Helliggaverne, før han har badet sit Legeme i Vand.
anyone who touches anything like this will remain unclean until evening. He is not allowed to eat from the holy offerings unless he has washed himself with water.
7 Når Solen går ned, er han ren, og derefter må han spise af Helliggaverne, thi de er hans Mad.
At sunset he will become clean, and then he is allowed to eat from the holy offerings because they provide his food.
8 Selvdøde og sønderrevne Dyr må han ikke spise for ikke at gøre sig uren derved. Jeg er HERREN!
He must not eat anything that's died, or killed by wild animals, because that would make him unclean. I am the Lord.
9 De skal overholde mine Forskrifter, at de ikke skal pådrage sig Synd og dø derfor, fordi de vanhelliger det. Jeg er HERREN, som helliger dem.
The priests must do as I demand, so that they don't become guilty and die because they have not done so, treating my requirements with contempt. I am the Lord who makes them holy.
10 Ingen Lægmand må spise af det hellige; hverken den indvandrede hos Præsten eller hans Daglejer må spise af det hellige.
Anyone who isn't part of a priest's family is not allowed eat the holy offerings. This also applies to a priest's guest or his paid worker.
11 Men når en Præst for sine Penge køber sig en Træl, da må denne spise deraf, og ligeledes må hans hjemmefødte Trælle spise af hans Mad.
However, if a priest uses his own money to buy a slave, or if a slave is born in the priest's household, then that slave is allowed to eat his food.
12 Når en Præstedatter ægter en Lægmand, må hun ikke spise af de ydede Helliggaver;
If the priest's daughter gets married to a man who isn't a priest, she is not allowed to eat the holy offerings.
13 men når en Præstedatter bliver Enke eller forstødes uden at have Børn og vender tilbage til sin Faders Hus og er der som i sine unge År, da må hun spise af sin Faders Mad. Men ingen Lægmand må spise deraf.
But if a priest's daughter without children is widowed or divorced and goes back to her father's house, she is allowed to eat her father's food as she did when she was growing up. But no one outside the priest's family can eat it.
14 Når nogen af Vanvare kommer til at spise af det hellige, skal han erstatte Præsten det hellige med Tillæg af en Femtedel.
Anyone who eats a holy offering by mistake must pay compensation by adding a fifth to its value, and give it all to the priest.
15 Præsterne må ikke vanhellige de Helliggaver, Israeliterne yder HERREN,
The priests must not make the holy offerings the Israelites present to the Lord unclean
16 og således bringe Brøde og Skyld over dem, når de spiser deres Helliggaver; thi jeg er HERREN, som helliger dem.
by allowing the people to eat them and in so doing take upon themselves the punishment for guilt. For I am the Lord who makes them holy.”
17 HERREN talede fremdeles til Moses og sagde:
The Lord told Moses,
18 Tal til Aron og hans Sønner og alle Israeliterne og sig til dem: Om nogen af Israels Hus eller af de fremmede i Israel bringer sin Offergave, hvad enten det er deres Løfteoffer eller Frivilligoffer, de bringer HERREN som Brændoffer,
“Tell Aaron, his sons and all the Israelites: If you or foreigner living with you wants to make a gift as a burnt offering to the Lord, whether it's to fulfill a promise or as a freewill offering, this is what you are to do.
19 så skal I bringe dem således, at I kan vinde Guds Velbehag, et lydefrit Handyr af Hornkvæget, Fårene eller Gederne;
If it is to be accepted on your behalf you must offer a male without defects from the herds of cattle, sheep, or goats.
20 I må ikke ofre noget Dyr, der har en Legemsfejl, thi derved vinder I ikke eders Guds Velbehag.
Don't present anything with a defect because it won't be accepted on your behalf.
21 Når nogen bringer HERREN et Takoffer af Hornkvæget eller Småkvæget enten for at indfri et Løfte eller som Frivilligoffer, da skal det være et lydefrit Dyr, for at det kan vinde Guds Velbehag; det må ingen som helst Legemsfejl have;
If you want to present a peace offering to the Lord from the herd or flock to fulfill a promise or as a freewill offering, in order to be acceptable the animal must be perfect, completely without defects.
22 et blindt Dyr eller et Dyr med Brud på Lemmerne eller et såret Dyr eller et Dyr, der lider af Bylder, Skab eller Ringorm, sådanne Dyr må I ikke bringe HERREN, og I må ikke lægge noget Ildoffer af den Slags på Alteret for HERREN.
Don't present to the Lord an animal that is blind, injured, or damaged in some way, or has warts, skin sores, or scabs. Don't place any animal that has these on the altar as a food offering to the Lord.
23 Et Stykke Hornkvæg eller Småkvæg med en for lang eller forkrøblet Legemsdel kan du bruge som Frivillig offer, men som Løfteoffer vinder det ikke Guds Velbehag.
However, you can present a freewill offering of a bull or sheep that has a leg that is too long or too short, but not if it is a sacrifice to fulfill a promise.
24 Dyr med udklemte, knuste, afrevne eller bortskårne Testikler må I ikke bringe HERREN; således må I ikke bære eder ad i eders Land.
Don't present to the Lord an animal with testicles that are accidentally or deliberately damaged. You are not allowed to sacrifice any of these damaged animals in your land.
25 Heller ikke må I af en Udlænding købe den Slags Dyr og ofre dem som eders Guds Spise, thi de har en Lyde, de har en Legemsfejl; ved dem vinder I ikke Guds Velbehag.
Nor are you allowed to accept such animals from a foreigner to be damaged and defective.”
26 HERREN talede fremdeles til Moses og sagde:
The Lord told Moses,
27 Når der fødes et Stykke Hornkvæg, et Får eller en Ged, skal de blive syv Dage hos Moderen; men fra den ottende Dag er de skikkede til at vinde HERRENs Velbehag som Ildoffergave til HERREN.
“When a bull, a sheep, or a goat is born, it must stay with its mother for seven days. After eight days it can be accepted as a food offering to the Lord.
28 I må ikke slagte et Stykke Hornkvæg eller Småkvæg samme Dag som dets Afkom.
However, don't kill a bull or a sheep and its young on the same day.
29 Når I ofrer et Lovprisningsoffer til HERREN, skal I ofre det således, at det kan vinde eder Guds Velbehag.
When you present a thank offering to the Lord, make sure to do so in a way that it will be accepted on your behalf.
30 Det skal spises samme Dag, I må intet levne deraf til næste Morgen. Jeg er HERREN!
It has to be eaten on the same day. Don't leave any of it until morning. I am the Lord.
31 I skal holde mine Bud og handle efter dem. Jeg er HERREN!
Keep my rules and put them into practice. I am the Lord.
32 I må ikke vanhellige mit hellige Navn, for at jeg må blive helliget blandt Israeliterne. Jeg er HERREN, som helliger eder,
Don't disgrace my holy character. I must be accepted as holy by you. I am the Lord who makes you holy.
33 som førte eder ud af Ægypten for at være eders Gud. Jeg er HERREN!
I am the one who led you out of Egypt to be your God. I am the Lord.”
