4 Mosebog 31
1 Og HERREN talede til Moses og sagde:
Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
2 "Skaf Israelitterne Hævn over Midjaniterne; så skal du samles til din Slægt!"
"Avenge the children of Israel for the Midianites. Afterward you shall be gathered to your people."
3 Da talte Moses til Folket og sagde: "Udrust Mænd af eders Midte til Kamp, for at de kan falde over Midjan og fuldbyrde HERRENs Hævn på Midjan;
Moses spoke to the people, saying, "Arm men from among you for the war, that they may go against Midian, to execute Jehovah's vengeance on Midian.
4 1000 Mand af hver af Israels Stammer skal I sende i Kamp!"
Of every tribe one thousand, throughout all the tribes of Israel, you shall send to the war."
5 Af Israels Tusinder udtoges da 1000 af hver Stamme, i alt 12.000 Mand, rustede til Kamp.
So there were delivered, out of the thousands of Israel, a thousand of every tribe, twelve thousand armed for war.
6 Og Moses sendte dem i kamp, 1000 af hver Stamme, og sammen med dem Pinehas, Præsten Eleazars Søn, der medbragte de hellige Redskaber og Alarmtrompeterne.
Moses sent them, one thousand of every tribe, to the war, them and Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest, to the war, with the vessels of the sanctuary and the trumpets for the alarm in his hand.
7 De drog så ud i kamp mod Midjaniterne, som HERREN havde pålagt Moses, og dræbte alle af Mandkøn;
They warred against Midian, as Jehovah commanded Moses; and they killed every male.
8 og foruden de andre, der blev slået ihjel, dræbte de også Midjans Konger, Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur og Reba, Midjans fem Konger; også Bileam, Beors Søn, dræbte de med Sværdet.
They killed the kings of Midian with the rest of their slain: Evi, and Rekem, and Zur, and Hur, and Reba, the five kings of Midian: Balaam also the son of Beor they killed with the sword.
9 Og Israelitterne bortførte Midjaniternes kvinder og Børn som Krigsfanger, og alt deres Kvæg alle deres Hjorde og alt deres Gods tog de med som Bytte;
The children of Israel took captive the women of Midian and their little ones; and all their livestock, and all their flocks, and all their goods, they took for a prey.
10 og alle deres Byer på de beboede Steder og alle deres Teltlejre stak de Ild på.
All their cities in the places in which they lived, and all their encampments, they burnt with fire.
11 Og alt det røvede og hele Byttet, både Mennesker og Dyr, tog de med sig,
They took all the spoil, and all the prey, both of man and of animal.
12 og de bragte Fangerne, Byttet og det røvede til Moses og Præsten Eleazar og Israelitternes Menighed i Lejren på Moabs Sletter ved Jordan over for Jeriko.
They brought the captives, and the prey, and the spoil, to Moses, and to Eleazar the priest, and to the congregation of the children of Israel, to the camp at the plains of Moab, which are by the Jordan at Jericho.
13 Men Moses, Præsten Eleazar og alle Menighedens Øverste gik dem i Møde uden for Lejren,
Moses, and Eleazar the priest, and all the leaders of the congregation, went forth to meet them outside of the camp.
14 og Moses blev vred på Hærens Førere, Tusindførerne og Hundredførerne, som kom tilbage fra Krigstoget.
Moses was angry with the officers of the army, the captains of thousands and the captains of hundreds, who came from the service of the war.
15 Og Moses sagde til dem: "Har I ladet alle Kvinder i Live?
Moses said to them, "Have you saved all the women alive?
16 Det var jo dem, der efter Bileams Råd blev Årsag til, at Israelitterne var troløse mod HERREN i den Sag med Peor, så at Plagen ramte HERRENs Menighed.
Look, these caused the children of Israel, through the counsel of Balaam, to commit trespass against Jehovah in the matter of Peor, and so the plague was among the congregation of Jehovah.
17 Dræb derfor alle Drengebørn og alle kvinder, der har kendt Mand og haft Samleje med Mænd;
Now therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman who has known man by lying with him.
18 men alle Piger, der ikke har haft Samleje med Mænd, skal I lade i Live og beholde,
But all the girls, who have not known man by lying with him, keep alive for yourselves.
19 Men selv skal I lejre eder uden for Lejren i syv Dage, enhver, som har dræbt nogen, og enhver, som har rørt ved en dræbt, og rense eder på den tredje og den syvende Dag, både I selv og eders Krigsfanger.
"Encamp outside of the camp seven days: whoever has killed any person, and whoever has touched any slain, purify yourselves on the third day and on the seventh day, you and your captives.
20 Og enhver Klædning, enhver Læder ting, alt, hvad der er lavet af Gedehår, og alle Træredskaber skal I rense!"
As to every garment, and all that is made of skin, and all work of goats' hair, and all things made of wood, you shall purify yourselves."
21 Og Præsten Eleazar sagde til Krigerne, der havde været med i Kampen: "Dette er det Lovbud, HERREN har givet Moses:
Eleazar the priest said to the men of war who went to the battle, "This is the statute of the law which Jehovah has commanded Moses:
22 Kun Guld, Sølv, kobber, Jern, Tin og Bly,
however the gold, and the silver, the bronze, the iron, the tin, and the lead,
23 alt, hvad der kan tåle Ild, skal I lade gå gennem Ild, så bliver det rent; dog må det renses med Renselsesvand. Men alt, hvad der ikke kan tåle Ild, skal I lade gå gennem Vand.
everything that may withstand the fire, you shall make to go through the fire, and it shall be clean; nevertheless it shall be purified with the water for impurity: and all that doesn't withstand the fire you shall make to go through the water.
24 Og eders klæder skal I tvætte på den syvende Dag, så bliver I rene og kan gå ind i Lejren."
You shall wash your clothes on the seventh day, and you shall be clean; and afterward you shall come into the camp."
25 Og HERREN talede til Moses og sagde:
Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
26 "Sammen med Præsten Eleazar og Overhovederne for Menighedens Fædrenehuse skal du opgøre det samlede Bytte, der er taget, både Mennesker og Dyr.
"Take the sum of the prey that was taken, both of man and of animal, you, and Eleazar the priest, and the heads of the ancestral houses of the congregation;
27 Derefter skal du dele Byttet i to lige store Dele mellem dem, der har taget Del i Krigen og været i Kamp, og hele den øvrige Menighed.
and divide the prey into two parts: between the men skilled in war, who went out to battle, and all the congregation.
28 Derpå skal du udtage en Afgift til HERREN fra krigerne, der har været i Kamp, et Stykke af hver fem Hundrede, både af Mennesker, Hornkvæg, Æsler og Småkvæg;
Levy a tribute to Jehovah of the men of war who went out to battle: one soul of five hundred; of the persons, of the cattle, of the donkeys, and of the flocks.
29 det skal du tage af den Halvdel, som tilfalder dem, og give Præsten Eleazar det som Offerydelse til HERREN.
Take it of their half, and give it to Eleazar the priest, for Jehovah's wave offering.
30 Men af den Halvdel, der tilfalder de andre Israelitter, skal du tage et Stykke af hver halvtredsindstyve, både af Mennesker, Hornkvæg, Æsler og Småkvæg, alt Kvæget, og give det til Leviterne, som tager Vare på, hvad der er at varetage ved HERRENs Bolig!"
Of the children of Israel's half, you shall take one drawn out of every fifty, of the persons, of the cattle, of the donkeys, and of the flocks, of all the livestock, and give them to the Levites, who perform the duty of the tabernacle of Jehovah."
31 Da gjorde Moses og Præsten Eleazar, som HERREN havde pålagt Moses.
Moses and Eleazar the priest did as Jehovah commanded Moses.
32 Og det, de havde taget, det tiloversblevne af Byttet, som Krigsfolket havde gjort, udgjorde 675000 Stykker Småkvæg,
Now the prey, over and above the booty which the men of war took, was six hundred seventy-five thousand sheep,
33 72 000 Stykker Hornkvæg,
and seventy-two thousand head of cattle,
34 61 000 Æsler
and sixty-one thousand donkeys,
35 og 32008 Mennesker, Kvinder, der ikke havde haft Samleje med Mænd.
and thirty-two thousand persons in all, of the women who had not known man by lying with him.
36 Den Halvdel, der tilfaldt dem, der havde været i Kamp, udgjorde altså et Tal af 337500 Stykker Småkvæg,
The half, which was the portion of those who went out to war, was in number three hundred thirty-seven thousand five hundred sheep:
37 hvoraf Afgiften til HERREN udgjorde 675 Stykker Småkvæg,
and Jehovah's tribute of the sheep was six hundred seventy-five.
38 36000 Stykker Hornkvæg, hvoraf 72 i Afgift til HERREN,
The cattle were thirty-six thousand; of which Jehovah's tribute was seventy-two.
39 30500 Æsler, hvoraf til i Afgift til HERREN,
The donkeys were thirty thousand five hundred; of which Jehovah's tribute was sixty-one.
40 og 16000 Mennesker, hvoraf 32 i Afgift til HERREN.
The persons were sixteen thousand; of whom Jehovah's tribute was thirty-two persons.
41 Og Moses overgav Afgiften, HERRENs Offerydelse, til Præsten Eleazar, som HERREN havde pålagt Moses.
Moses gave the tribute, which was Jehovah's wave offering, to Eleazar the priest, as Jehovah commanded Moses.
42 Og af den Halvdel, som tilfaldt de andre Israelitter, og som Moses havde taget som deres del fra de Mænd, der havde været i Kamp
Of the children of Israel's half, which Moses divided off from the men who warred
43 denne Menighedens Halvdel udgjorde 337 500 Stykker Småkvæg,
(now the congregation's half was three hundred thirty-seven thousand five hundred sheep,
44 36 000 Stykker Hornkvæg,
and thirty-six thousand head of cattle,
45 30 500 Æsler
and thirty thousand five hundred donkeys,
46 og 16000 Mennesker
and sixteen thousand persons),
47 af den Halvdel, som tilfaldt de andre Israelitter, udtog Moses et Stykke for hver halvtredsindstyve, både af Mennesker og Kvæg, og gav dem til Leviterne, som tog Vare på, hvad der var at varetage ved HERRENs Bolig, som HERREN havde pålagt Moses.
even of the children of Israel's half, Moses took one drawn out of every fifty, both of man and of animal, and gave them to the Levites, who performed the duty of the tabernacle of Jehovah; as Jehovah commanded Moses.
48 Da trådte Førerne for Hærens Afdelinger, Tusindførerne og Hundredførerne, hen til Moses
The officers who were over the thousands of the army, the captains of thousands, and the captains of hundreds, came near to Moses;
49 og sagde til ham: "Dine Trælle har holdt Mandtal over de krigere, der stod under os; og der manglede ikke en eneste af os;
and they said to Moses, "Your servants have taken the sum of the men of war who are under our command, and there lacks not one man of us.
50 derfor frembærer nu enhver af os som Offergave til HERREN, hvad han har taget af Guldsmykker, Armbånd, Spange, Fingerringe, Ørenringe og Halssmykker, for at skaffe os Soning for HERRENs Åsyn."
We have brought Jehovah's offering, what every man has gotten, of jewels of gold, armlets, and bracelets, signet rings, earrings, and necklaces, to make atonement for our souls before Jehovah."
51 Moses og Præsten Eleazar modtog Guldet af dem, alskens med Kunst virkede Smykker;
Moses and Eleazar the priest took their gold, even all worked jewels.
52 og alt Offerydelsesguldet, som de ydede HERREN, udgjorde 16750 Sekel, hvilket Tusindførerne og Hundredførerne bragte som Gave.
All the gold of the wave offering that they offered up to Jehovah, of the captains of thousands, and of the captains of hundreds, was sixteen thousand seven hundred fifty shekels.
53 Krigerne havde taget Bytte hver for sig.
(The men of war had taken booty, every man for himself.)
54 Så modtog Moses og Præsten Eleazar Guldet af Tusindførerne og Hundredførerne og bragte det ind i Åbenbaringsteltet, for at det skulde bringe Israelitterne i Minde for HERRENs Åsyn.
Moses and Eleazar the priest took the gold of the captains of thousands and of hundreds, and brought it into the Tent of Meeting, for a memorial for the children of Israel before Jehovah.
