4 Mosebog 10

1 HERREN talede fremdeles til Moses og sagde:

And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,

2 Du skal lave dig to Sølvtrompeter; i drevet Arbejde skal du lave dem. Dem skal du bruge, når Menigheden skal kaldes sammen, og når Lejrene skal bryde op.

Make to yourself two silver trumpets: you shall make them of beaten work; and they shall be to you for the purpose of calling the assembly, and of removing the camps.

3 Når der blæses i dem begge to, skal hele Menigheden samle sig hos dig ved Indgangen til Åbenbaringsteltet.

And you shall sound with them, and all the congregation shall be gathered to the door of the tabernacle of witness.

4 Blæses der kun i den ene, skal Øversterne, Overhovederne for Israels Stammer, samle sig hos dig.

And if they shall sound with one, all the rulers even the princes of Israel shall come to you.

5 Når I blæser Alarm med dem, skal Lejrene på Østsiden bryde op;

And you shall sound an alarm, and the camps pitched eastward shall begin to move.

6 blæser Alarm anden Gang, skal Lejrene på Sydsiden bryde op: tredje Gang skal Lejrene mod Vest bryde op, fjerde Gang Lejrene mod Nord; der skal blæses Alarm, når de skal bryde op.

And you shall sound a second alarm, and the camps pitched southward shall move; and you shall sound a third alarm, and the camps pitched westward shall move forward; and you shall sound a fourth alarm, and they that encamp towards the north shall move forward: they shall sound an alarm at their departure.

7 Men når Forsamlingen skal sammenkaldes skal I blæse på almindelig Vis, ikke Alarm.

And whenever you shall gather the assembly, you shall sound, but not an alarm.

8 Arons Sønner, Præsterne, skal blæse i Trompeterne; det skal være eder en evig gyldig Anordning fra Slægt til Slægt.

And the priests the sons of Aaron shall sound with the trumpets; and it shall be a perpetual ordinance for you throughout your generations.

9 Når I drager i Krig i eders Land mod en Fjende, der angriber eder, og blæser Alarm med Trompeterne, skal I ihukommes for HERREN eders Guds Åsyn og frelses fra eders Fjender.

And if you shall go forth to war in your land against your enemies that are opposed to you, then shall you sound with the trumpets; and you shall be had in remembrance before the Lord, and you shall be saved from your enemies.

10 Og på eders Glædesdage, eders Højtider og Nymånedage, skal I blæse i Trompeterne ved eders Brændofre og Takofre; så skal de tjene eder til Ihukommelse for eders Guds Åsyn. Jeg er HERREN eders Gud!

And in the days of your gladness, and in your feasts, and in your new moons, you shall sound with the trumpets at your whole burnt offerings, and at the sacrifices of your peace-offerings; and there shall be a memorial for you before your God: I [am] the Lord your God.

11 Den tyvende Dag i den anden Måned af det andet År løftede Skyen sig fra Vidnesbyrdets Bolig.

And it came to pass in the second year, in the second month, on the twentieth day of the month, the cloud went up from the tabernacle of witness.

12 Da brød Israeliterne op fra Sinaj Ørken, i den Orden de skulde bryde op i, og Skyen stod stille i Parans Ørken.

And the children of Israel set forward with their baggage in the wilderness of Sina; and the cloud rested in the wilderness of Pharan.

13 Da de nu første Gang brød op efter Guds Bud ved Moses,

And the first rank departed by the word of the Lord by the hand of Moses.

14 var Judæernes Lejr den første, der brød op under sit Felttegn, Hærafdeling for Hærafdeling; deres Hær førtes af Nahasjon, Amminadabs Søn.

And they first set in motion the order of the camp of the children of Juda with their host; and over their host [was] Naasson, son of Aminadab.

And over the host of the tribe of the sons of Zabulon, [was] Eliab the son of Chaelon.

17 Da derpå Boligen var taget ned, brød Gersoniterne og Merariterne op og bar Boligen.

And they shall take down the tabernacle, and the sons of Gedson shall set forward, and the sons of Merari, who bear the tabernacle.

18 Så brød Rubens Lejr op under sit Felttegn, Hærafdeling for Hærafdeling; deres Hær førtes af Elizur, Sjedeurs Søn.

21 Så brød Kehatiterne, der bar de hellige Ting, op; og før deres Komme havde man rejst Boligen.

And the sons of Caath shall set forward bearing the holy things, and [the others] shall set up the tabernacle until they arrive.

And the order of the camp of the sons of Dan shall set forward the last of all the camps, with their forces: and over their forces [was] Achiezer the [son] of Amisadai.

28 Således foregik Israelitternes Opbrud, Hærafdeling for Hærafdeling. Så brød de da op.

These [are] the armies of the children of Israel; and they set forward with their forces.

29 Men Moses sagde til Midjaniten Hobab, Reuels Søn, Moses's Svigerfader: "Vi bryder nu op for at drage til det Sted, HERREN har lovet at give os; drag med os! Vi skal lønne dig godt, thi HERREN har stillet Israel gode Ting i Udsigt."

And Moses said to Obab the son of Raguel the Madianite, the father-in-law of Moses, We are going forward to the place concerning which the Lord said, This will I give to you: Come with us, and we will do you good, for the Lord has spoken good concerning Israel.

30 Men han svarede ham: "Jeg vil ikke drage med; nej, jeg drager til mit Land og min Slægt."

And he said to him, I will not go, but [I will go] to my land and to my kindred.

31 Da sagde han: "Forlad os ikke! Du kender jo de Steder, hvor vi kan slå Lejr i Ørkenen; vær Øje for os!

And he said, Leave us not, because you have been with us in the wilderness, and you shall be an elder amongst us.

32 Drager du med os, skal vi give dig Del i alt det gode, HERREN vil give os."

And it shall come to pass if you will go with us, it shall even come to pass that in whatever things the Lord shall do us good, we will also do you good.

33 Derpå brød de op fra HERRENs Bjerg og vandrede tre Dagsrejser frem, idet HERRENs Pagts Ark drog i Forvejen for at søge dem et Sted, hvor de kunde holde Hvil.

And they departed from the mount of the Lord a three days' journey; and the ark of the covenant of the Lord went before them a three days' journey to provide rest for them.

34 Og HERRENs Sky svævede over dem om Dagen, når de brød op fra Lejren.

And the cloud overshadowed them by day, when they departed from the camp.

35 Og hver Gang Arken brød op, sagde Moses: "Stå op, HERRE, at dine Fjender må splittes og dine Avindsmænd fly for dit Åsyn!"

And it came to pass when the ark set forward, that Moses said, Arise, O Lord, and let your enemies be scattered: let all that hate you flee.

36 Og hver Gang den standsede, sagde han: "Vend tilbage, HERRE, til Israels Stammers Titusinder!"

And in the resting he said, Turn again, O Lord, the thousands [and] tens of thousands in Israel.
