< 3 Mosebog 24 >

1 HERREN talede fremdeles til Moses og sagde:
The Lord told Moses,
2 Byd Israeliterne at skaffe dig ren Olivenolie af knuste Frugter til Lysestagen, så Lamperne daglig kan sættes på.
“Order the Israelites to bring you pure, pressed olive oil for the lamps, so they will always stay lit.
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;
From evening until morning Aaron is to constantly look after the lamps continually before the Lord, outside the veil of the Testimony in the Tent of Meeting. This regulation is for all time and for all future generations.
4 på Guldlysestagen skal han holde Lamperne i Orden for HERRENs Åsyn, så de kan brænde bestandig.
He is to constantly look after the lamps placed on the pure gold lampstand before the Lord.
5 Du skal tage fint Hvedemel og bage tolv Kager, to Tiendedele Efa til hver Kage,
Using the best flour bake twelve loaves, with two-tenths of an ephah of flour per loaf.
6 og lægge dem i to Rækker, seks i hver Række, på Guldbordet for HERRENs Åsyn;
Place them in two piles, six in each pile, on the table made of pure gold that stands before the Lord.
7 på hver Række skal du lægge ren Røgelse, og den skal være Brødenes Offerdel, et Ildoffer for HERREN.
Place pure frankincense beside each pile to go with the bread to act as the ‘reminder part,’ a food offering to the Lord.
8 Han skal bestandig hver Sabbatsdag lægge dem frem for HERRENs Åsyn; det skal være Israeliterne en evig Pagtspligt.
Every Sabbath day the bread shall be placed before the Lord, given by the Israelites as an ongoing sign of the eternal agreement.
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.
It is for Aaron and his descendants. They are to eat it in a holy place; for they must treat it as a most holy part of the food offerings given to the Lord. It is their share of the food offerings for all time.”
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,
One day a man who had an Israelite mother and an Egyptian father went into the Israelite camp and had a fight with an Israelite.
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.
The Israelite woman's son cursed the name of the Lord. So they took him before Moses. (His mother's name was Shelomith, daughter of Dibri, from the tribe of Dan.)
12 Og de satte ham i Varetægt for at få en Kendelse af HERRENs Mund.
They detained him until it was clear what the Lord wanted them to do about it.
13 Og HERREN talede til Moses og sagde:
The Lord told 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.
“Take the man who cursed me outside the camp. Have all who heard him curse put their hands on his head; then have everyone stone him to death.
15 Og du skal tale til Israeliterne og sige: Når nogen bespotter sin Gud, skal han undgælde for sin Synd;
Tell the Israelites that anyone who curses their God will be punished for their 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.
Anyone who curses the name of the Lord must to be executed. All of you must stone them to death, whether they are a foreigner who lives with you or an Israelite. If they curse my name, they must be executed.
17 Når nogen slår et Menneske ihjel, skal han lide Døden.
Anyone who kills someone else must be executed.
18 Den, der slår et Stykke Kvæg ihjel, skal erstatte det et levende Dyr for et levende Dyr.
Anyone who kills an animal has to replace it—a life for a life.
19 Når nogen tilføjer sin Næste Legemsskade, skal der handles med ham, som han har handlet,
If anyone injures someone else, whatever they've done must be done to them:
20 Brud for Brud, Øje for Øje, Tand for Tand; samme Skade, han tilføjer en anden, skal tilføjes ham selv.
a broken bone for a broken bone, an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. Whatever way they injured the victim, the same must be done to them.
21 Den, der slår et Stykke Kvæg ihjel, skal erstatte det; men den, der slår et Menneske ihjel, skal lide Døden.
Anyone who kills an animal has to replace it, but anyone who kills someone else must be executed.
22 En og samme Ret skal gælde for eder; for den fremmede såvel som for den indfødte; thi jeg er HERREN eders Gud!
The same laws apply to foreigners who live with you as to Israelites, for 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.
Moses told this to the Israelites, and they took the man who cursed the Lord outside the camp and stoned him to death. The Israelites did what the Lord ordered Moses to do.
