3 Mosebog 24
1 HERREN talede fremdeles til Moses og sagde:
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
2 Byd Israeliterne at skaffe dig ren Olivenolie af knuste Frugter til Lysestagen, så Lamperne daglig kan sættes på.
Command the children of Israel, that they bring unto thee the finest and dearest oil of olives, to furnish the lamps continually,
3 I Åbenbaringsteltet uden for Forhænget foran Vidnesbyrdet skal Aron gøre den i Stand, så den bestandig kan brænde fra Aften til Morgen for HERRENs Åsyn. Det skal være eder en evig gyldig Anordning fra Slægt til Slægt;
Without the veil of the testimony in the tabernacle of the covenant. And Aaron shall set them from evening until morning before the Lord, by a perpetual service and rite in your generations.
4 på Guldlysestagen skal han holde Lamperne i Orden for HERRENs Åsyn, så de kan brænde bestandig.
They shall be set upon the most pure candlestick before the Lord continually.
5 Du skal tage fint Hvedemel og bage tolv Kager, to Tiendedele Efa til hver Kage,
Thou shalt take also fine hour, and shalt bake twelve leaves thereof, two tenths shall be in every loaf:
6 og lægge dem i to Rækker, seks i hver Række, på Guldbordet for HERRENs Åsyn;
And thou shalt set them six and six one against another upon the most clean table before the Lord:
7 på hver Række skal du lægge ren Røgelse, og den skal være Brødenes Offerdel, et Ildoffer for HERREN.
And thou shalt put upon them the dearest frankincense, that the bread may be for a memorial of the oblation of the Lord.
8 Han skal bestandig hver Sabbatsdag lægge dem frem for HERRENs Åsyn; det skal være Israeliterne en evig Pagtspligt.
Every sabbath they shall be changed before the Lord, being received of the children of Israel by an everlasting covenant:
9 De skal tilfalde Aron og hans Sønner, som skal spise dem på et helligt Sted, thi de er højhellige; ham tilfalder de som en evig, retmæssig Del af HERRENs Ildofre.
And they shall be Aaron’s and his sons’, that they may eat them in the holy place: because it is most holy of the sacrifices of the Lord by a perpetual right.
10 En israelitisk Kvindes Søn, hvis Fader var Ægypter, gik ud blandt Israeliterne. Da opstod der Strid i Lejren mellem den israelitiske Kvindes Søn og en Israelit,
And behold there went out the son of a woman of Israel, whom she had of an Egyptian, among the children of Israel, and fell at words in the camp with a man of Israel.
11 og den israelitiske Kvindes Søn forbandede Navnet og bespottede det. Da førte man ham til Moses. Hans Moder hed Sjelomit, en Datter af Dibri af Dans Stamme.
And when he had blasphemed the name, and had cursed it, he was brought to Moses: (now his mother was called Salumith, the daughter of Dabri, of the tribe of Dan: )
12 Og de satte ham i Varetægt for at få en Kendelse af HERRENs Mund.
And they put him into prison, till they might know what the Lord would command.
13 Og HERREN talede til Moses og sagde:
And the Lord spoke to Moses,
14 Før Spotteren uden for Lejren. og alle de, der hørte det, skal lægge deres Hænder på hans Hoved, og derefter skal hele Menigheden stene ham.
Saying: Bring forth the blasphemer without the camp, and let them that heard him, put their hands upon his head, and let all the people stone him.
15 Og du skal tale til Israeliterne og sige: Når nogen bespotter sin Gud, skal han undgælde for sin Synd;
And thou shalt speak to the children of Israel: the man that curseth his God, shall bear his sin:
16 og den, der forbander HERRENs Navn, skal lide Døden; hele Menigheden skal stene ham; en fremmed såvel som en indfødt skal lide Døden når han forbander Navnet.
And he that blasphemeth the name of the Lord, dying let him die: all the multitude shall stone him, whether he be a native or a stranger. He that blasphemeth the name of the Lord, dying let him die.
17 Når nogen slår et Menneske ihjel, skal han lide Døden.
He that striketh and killeth a man, dying let him die.
18 Den, der slår et Stykke Kvæg ihjel, skal erstatte det et levende Dyr for et levende Dyr.
He that killeth a beast, shall make it good, that is to say, shall give beast for beast.
19 Når nogen tilføjer sin Næste Legemsskade, skal der handles med ham, som han har handlet,
He that giveth a blemish to any of his neighbours: as he hath done, so shall it be done to him:
20 Brud for Brud, Øje for Øje, Tand for Tand; samme Skade, han tilføjer en anden, skal tilføjes ham selv.
Breach for breach, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, shall he restore. What blemish he gave, the like shall he be compelled to suffer.
21 Den, der slår et Stykke Kvæg ihjel, skal erstatte det; men den, der slår et Menneske ihjel, skal lide Døden.
He that striketh a beast, shall render another. He that striketh a man shall be punished.
22 En og samme Ret skal gælde for eder; for den fremmede såvel som for den indfødte; thi jeg er HERREN eders Gud!
Let there be equal judgment among you, whether he be a stranger, or a native that offends: because I am the Lord your God.
23 Og Moses sagde det til Israeliterne, og de førte Spotteren uden for Lejren og stenede ham; Israeliterne gjorde som HERREN havde pålagt Moses.
And Moses spoke to the children of Israel: and they brought forth him that had blasphemed, without the camp, and they stoned him. And the children of Israel did as the Lord had commanded Moses.
