3 Mosebog 4

1 Og HERREN talede til Moses og sagde:

AND the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,

2 Tal til Israeliterne og sig: Når nogen af Vanvare forsynder sig mod noget af HERRENs Forbud og overtræder et af dem, da skal følgende iagttages:

Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, If a soul shall sin through ignorance against any of the commandments of the Lord concerning things which ought not to be done, and shall do against any of them:

3 Er det den salvede Præst, der forsynder sig, så der pådrages Folket Skyld, skal han for den Synd, han har begået, bringe HERREN en lydefri ung Tyr som Syndoffer.

If the priest that is anointed do sin according to the sin of the people; then let him bring for his sin, which he hath sinned, a young bullock without blemish unto the Lord for a sin offering.

4 Han skal føre Tyren hen til Åbenbaringsteltets Indgang for HERRENs Åsyn og lægge sin Hånd på dens Hoved og slagte den for HERRENs Åsyn,

And he shall bring the bullock unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation before the Lord; and shall lay his hand upon the bullock’s head, and kill the bullock before the Lord.

5 og den salvede Præst skal tage noget af Tyrens Blod og bringe det ind i Åbenbaringsteltet,

And the priest that is anointed shall take of the bullock’s blood, and bring it to the tabernacle of the congregation:

6 og Præsten skal dyppe sin Finger i Blodet og stænke det syv Gange for HERRENs Åsyn foran Helligdommens Forhæng;

And the priest shall dip his finger in the blood, and sprinkle of the blood seven times before the Lord, before the vail of the sanctuary.

7 og Præsten skal stryge noget af Blodet på Røgelsealterets Horn for HERRENs Åsyn, det, som står i Åbenbaringsteltet; Resten af Tyrens Blod skal han udgyde ved Foden af Brændofferalteret, som står ved Indgangen til Åbenbaringsteltet.

And the priest shall put some of the blood upon the horns of the altar of sweet incense before the Lord, which is in the tabernacle of the congregation; and shall pour all the blood of the bullock at the bottom of the altar of the burnt offering, which is at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.

8 Men alt Syndoffertyrens Fedt skal han tage ud Fedtet, som dækker Indvoldene, og alt Fedtet på Indvoldene,

And he shall take off from it all the fat of the bullock for the sin offering; the fat that covereth the inwards, and all the fat that is upon the inwards,

9 begge Nyrerne med det Fedt, som sidder på dem ved Lændemusklerne, og Leverlappen, som han skal skille fra ved Nyrerne,

And the two kidneys, and the fat that is upon them, which is by the flanks, and the caul above the liver, with the kidneys, it shall he take away,

10 på samme Måde som det udtages af Takofferoksen. Og Præsten skal bringe det som Røgoffer på Brændofferalteret.

As it was taken off from the bullock of the sacrifice of peace offerings: and the priest shall burn them upon the altar of the burnt offering.

11 Men Tyrens Hud og alt dens Kød tillige med dens Hoved, Skinneben, Indvolde og Skarn,

And the skin of the bullock, and all his flesh, with his head, and with his legs, and his inwards, and his dung,

12 hele Tyren skal han bringe uden for Lejren til et urent Sted, til Askedyngen, og brænde den på et Bål af Brænde; oven på Aske; dyngen skal den brændes.

Even the whole bullock shall he carry forth without the camp unto a clean place, where the ashes are poured out, and burn him on the wood with fire: where the ashes are poured out shall he be burnt.

13 Men hvis det et hele Israels Menighed, der forser sig, uden at Forsamlingen ved af det, og de har overtrådt et af HERRENs Forbud og derved pådraget sig Skyld,

And if the whole congregation of Israel sin through ignorance, and the thing be hid from the eyes of the assembly, and they have done somewhat against any of the commandments of the Lord concerning things which should not be done, and are guilty;

14 da skal Forsamlingen, når den Synd, de har begået mod Forbudet, bliver kendt, bringe en ung, lydefri Tyr som Syndoffer; de skal føre den hen foran Åbenbaringsteltet,

When the sin, which they have sinned against it, is known, then the congregation shall offer a young bullock for the sin, and bring him before the tabernacle of the congregation.

15 og Menighedens Ældste skal lægge deres Hænder på Tyrens Hoved for HERRENs Åsyn, og man skal slagte den for HERRENs Åsyn.

And the elders of the congregation shall lay their hands upon the head of the bullock before the Lord: and the bullock shall be killed before the Lord.

16 Derpå skal den salvede Præst bringe noget af Tyrens Blod ind i Åbenbaringsteltet,

And the priest that is anointed shall bring of the bullock’s blood to the tabernacle of the congregation:

17 og Præsten skal dyppe sin Finger i Blodet og stænke det syv Gange for HERRENs Åsyn foran Forhænget;

And the priest shall dip his finger in some of the blood, and sprinkle it seven times before the Lord, even before the vail.

18 og han skal stryge noget af Blodet på Hornene af Alteret, som står for HERRENs Åsyn i Åbenbaringsteltet; Resten af Blodet skal han udgyde ved Foden af Brændofferalteret, som står ved Indgangen til Åbenbaringsteltet,

And he shall put some of the blood upon the horns of the altar which is before the Lord, that is in the tabernacle of the congregation, and shall pour out all the blood at the bottom of the altar of the burnt offering, which is at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.

19 Men alt, Fedtet skal han tage ud og bringe det som Røgoffer på Alteret.

And he shall take all his fat from him, and burn it upon the altar.

20 Derpå skal han gøre med Tyren på samme Måde som med den før nævnte Syndoffertyr. Da skal Præsten skaffe dem Soning, så de finder Tilgivelse.

And he shall do with the bullock as he did with the bullock for a sin offering, so shall he do with this: and the priest shall make an atonement for them, and it shall be forgiven them.

21 Så skal Tyren bringes uden for Lejren og brændes på samme Måde som den før nævnte Tyr. Det er Menighedens Syndoffer.

And he shall carry forth the bullock without the camp, and burn him as he burned the first bullock: it is a sin offering for the congregation.

22 Men hvis det er en Øverste. der forsynder sig og af Vanvare overtræder et af HERRENs Forbud og derved på drager sig Skyld,

When a ruler hath sinned, and done somewhat through ignorance against any of the commandments of the Lord his God concerning things which should not be done, and is guilty;

23 og den Synd, han har begået, bliver ham vitterlig, så skal den Offergave, han bringer, være en lydefri Gedebuk.

Or if his sin, wherein he hath sinned, come to his knowledge; he shall bring his offering, a kid of the goats, a male without blemish:

24 Han skal lægge sin Hånd på Bukkens Hoved og slagte den der, hvor Brændofferet slagtes for HERRENs Åsyn. Det er et Syndoffer.

And he shall lay his hand upon the head of the goat, and kill it in the place where they kill the burnt offering before the Lord: it is a sin offering.

25 Præsten skal tage noget af Syndofferets Blod på sin Finger og stryge det på Brændofferalterets Horn, og Resten af Blodet skal han udgyde ved Brændofferalterets Fod.

And the priest shall take of the blood of the sin offering with his finger, and put it upon the horns of the altar of burnt offering, and shall pour out his blood at the bottom of the altar of burnt offering.

26 Og alt dets Fedt skal han bringe som Røgoffer på Alteret ligesom Fedtet fra Takofferet. Da skal Præsten skaffe ham Soning for hans Synd, så han finder Tilgivelse.

And he shall burn all his fat upon the altar, as the fat of the sacrifice of peace offerings: and the priest shall make an atonement for him as concerning his sin, and it shall be forgiven him.

27 Men hvis det er en af Almuen, der af Vanvare forsynder sig ved at overtræde et af HERRENs Forbud og derved pådrager sig Skyld,

And if any one of the common people sin through ignorance, while he doeth somewhat against any of the commandments of the Lord concerning things which ought not to be done, and be guilty;

28 og den Synd, han har begået, bliver ham vitterlig, så skal Offergaven, han bringer for den Synd, han har begået, være en lydefri Ged.

Or if his sin, which he hath sinned, come to his knowledge: then he shall bring his offering, a kid of the goats, a female without blemish, for his sin which he hath sinned.

29 Han skal lægge sin Hånd på Syndofferets Hoved og slagte Syndofferet der, hvor Brændofferet slagtes.

And he shall lay his hand upon the head of the sin offering, and slay the sin offering in the place of the burnt offering.

30 Præsten skal tage noget af Gedens Blod på sin Finger og stryge det på Brændofferalterets Horn, og Resten af Blodet skal han udgyde ved Alterets Fod.

And the priest shall take of the blood thereof with his finger, and put it upon the horns of the altar of burnt offering, and shall pour out all the blood thereof at the bottom of the altar.

31 Og alt Fedtet skal han tage ud, på samme Måde som Fedtet tages ud af Takofferet, og Præsten skal bringe det som Røgoffer på Alteret til en liflig Duft for HERREN. Da skal Præsten skaffe ham Soning, så han finder Tilgivelse.

And he shall take away all the fat thereof, as the fat is taken away from off the sacrifice of peace offerings; and the priest shall burn it upon the altar for a sweet savour unto the Lord; and the priest shall make an atonement for him, and it shall be forgiven him.

32 Men hvis den Offergave, han vil bringe som Syndoffer, er et Lam, da skal det være et lydefrit Hundyr, han bringer.

And if he bring a lamb for a sin offering, he shall bring it a female without blemish.

33 Han skal lægge sin Hånd på Syndofferets Hoved og slagte det som Syndoffer der, hvor Brændofferet slagtes.

And he shall lay his hand upon the head of the sin offering, and slay it for a sin offering in the place where they kill the burnt offering.

34 Og Præsten skal tage noget af Syndofferets Blod på sin Finger og stryge det på Brændofferalterets Horn, men Resten af Blodet skal han udgyde ved Alterets fod,

And the priest shall take of the blood of the sin offering with his finger, and put it upon the horns of the altar of burnt offering, and shall pour out all the blood thereof at the bottom of the altar:

35 og alt Fedtet skal han tage ud, på samme Måde som Takofferlammets Fedt tages ud, og Præsten skal bringe det som Røgoffer på Alteret oven på HERRENs Ildofre. Da skal Præsten skaffe ham Soning for den Synd, han har begået, så han finder Tilgivelse.

And he shall take away all the fat thereof, as the fat of the lamb is taken away from the sacrifice of the peace offerings; and the priest shall burn them upon the altar, according to the offerings made by fire unto the Lord: and the priest shall make an atonement for his sin that he hath committed, and it shall be forgiven him.
