< Numbers 6 >

1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
HERREN talede fremdeles til Moses og sagde:
2 speak to the children of Israel, and thou shalt say to them, Whatsoever man or woman shall specially vow a vow to separate oneself with purity to the Lord,
Tal til Israeliterne og sig til dem: Når en Mand eller Kvinde vil aflægge et Nasiræerløfte for således at indvie sig til HERREN,
3 he shall purely abstain from wine and strong drink; and he shall drink no vinegar of wine or vinegar of strong drink; and whatever is made of the grape he shall not drink; neither shall he eat fresh grapes or raisins,
skal han afholde sig fra Vin og stærk Drik; Vineddike og stærk Drik må han ikke drikke, ej heller nogen som helst drik af Druer; han må hverken spise friske eller tørrede Druer;
4 all the days of his vow: he shall eat no one of all the things that come from the vine, wine from the grape-stones to the husk,
så længe hans Indvielse varer, må han intet som helst nyde, der kommer af Vinstokken, hverken umodne Druer eller friske Skud.
5 all the days of his separation: —a razor shall not come upon his head, until the days be fulfilled which he vowed to the Lord: he shall be holy, cherishing the long hair of the head,
Så længe hans Indvielsesløfte gælder, må ingen Ragekniv komme på hans Hoved; indtil Udløbet af den Tid han indvier sig til HERREN, skal han være hellig og lade sit Hovedhår vokse frit.
6 all the days of his vow to the Lord: he shall not come nigh to any dead body,
Hele den Tid han har indviet sig til HERREN, må han ikke komme Lig nær;
7 to his father or his mother, or to his brother or his sister; he shall not defile himself for them, when they have died, because the vow of God is upon him on his head.
selv når hans Fader eller Moder, hans Broder eller Søster dør, må han ikke pådrage sig Urenhed ved dem, thi han bærer sin Guds indvielse på sit Hoved.
8 All the days of his vow he shall be holy to the Lord.
Så længe hans Indvielse varer, er han helliget HERREN.
9 And if any one should die suddenly by him, immediately the head of his vow shall be defiled; and he shall shave his head in whatever day he shall be purified: on the seventh day he shall be shaved.
Men når nogen uventet og pludselig dør i hans Nærhed, og han således bringer Urenhed over sit indviede Hoved, skal han rage sit Hoved, den Dag han atter bliver ren; den syvende Dag skal han rage det;
10 And on the eighth day he shall bring two turtledoves, or two young pigeons, to the priest, to the doors of the tabernacle of witness.
og den ottende Dag skal han bringe to Turtelduer eller Dueunger til Præsten ved Åbenbaringsteltets Indgang.
11 And the priest shall offer one for a sin-offering; and the other for a whole-burnt-offering; and the priest shall make atonement for him in the things wherein he sinned respecting the dead body, and he shall sanctify his head in that day,
Og Præsten skal ofre den ene som Syndoffer og den anden som Brændoffer og skaffe ham Soning, fordi han har syndet ved at røre ved Lig. Derpå skal han samme Dag atter hellige sit Hoved
12 in which he was consecrated to the Lord, [all] the days of his vow; and he shall bring a lamb of a year old for a trespass-offering; and the former days shall not be reckoned, because the head of his vow was polluted.
og atter indvie sig til HERREN for lige så lang Tid, som han før havde indviet sig, og bringe et årgammelt Lam som Skyldoffer; den forløbne Tid regnes ikke med, da han har bragt Urenhed over sit indviede Hoved.
13 And this is the law of him that has vowed: in whatever day he shall have fulfilled the days of his vow, he shall himself bring his gift to the doors of the tabernacle of witness.
Dette er Loven om Nasiræeren: Når hans indvielsestid er til Ende, skal han begive sig til Åbenbaringsteltets Indgang
14 And he shall bring his gift to the Lord; one he-lamb of a year old without blemish for a whole-burnt-offering, and one ewe-lamb of a year old without blemish for a sin-offering, and one ram without blemish for a peace-offering;
og som Offergave bringe HERREN et årgammelt, lydefrit Væderlam til Brændoffer, et årgammelt, lydefrit Hunlam til Syndoffer og en lydefri Væder til Takoffer,
15 and a basket of unleavened bread of fine flour, [even] loaves kneaded with oil, and unleavened cakes anointed with oil, and their meat-offering, and their drink-offering.
en Kurv med usyret Bagværk, Kager af fint Hvedemel, rørte i Olie, og usyrede Fladbrød, smurte med Olie, desuden det tilhørende Afgrødeoffer og de tilhørende Drikofre.
16 And the priest shall bring them before the Lord, and shall offer his sin-offering, and his whole-burnt-offering.
Så skal Præsten bringe det for HERRENs Åsyn og ofre hans Syndoffer og Brændoffer,
17 And he shall offer the ram as a sacrifice of peace-offering to the Lord with the basket of unleavened bread; and the priest shall offer its meat-offering and its drink-offering.
og Væderen skal han ofre som Takoffer til HERREN tillige med de usyrede Brød i Kurven; derpå skal Præsten ofre hans Afgrødeoffer og Drikofer.
18 And he that has vowed shall shave the head of his consecration by the doors of the tabernacle of witness, and shall put the hairs on the fire which is under the sacrifice of peace-offering.
Så skal Nasiræeren ved Indgangen til Åbenbaringsteltet rage sit indviede Hoved og tage sit indviede Hovedhår og kaste det i Ilden under Takofferet.
19 And the priest shall take the sodden shoulder of the ram, and one unleavened loaf from the basket, and one unleavened cake, and shall put them on the hands of the votary after he has shaved off his
Og Præsten skal tage den kogte Bov af Væderen og een usyret Kage og eet usyret Fladbrød af Kurven og lægge dem på Nasiræerens Hænder, efter at han har afraget sit indviede Hovedhår.
20 And the priest shall present them as an offering before the Lord; it shall be the holy portion for the priest beside the breast of the heave-offering and beside the shoulder of the wave-offering: and afterwards the votary shall drink wine.
Og Præsten skal udføre Svingningen dermed for HERRENs Åsyn; det tilfalder Præsten som Helliggave foruden Svingningsbrystet og Offerydelseskøllen. Derefter må Nasiræeren atter drikke Vin.
21 This is the law of the votary who shall have vowed to the Lord his gift to the Lord, concerning his vow, besides what he may be able to afford according to the value of his vow, which he may have vowed according to the law of separation.
Det er Loven om Nasiræeren, der aflægger Løfte, om hans Offergave til HERREN i Anledning af Indvielsen, foruden hvad han ellers evner at give; overensstemmende med Løftet, han aflægger, skal han forholde sig efter den for hans Indvielse gældende Lov.
22 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
HERREN talede fremdeles til Moses og sagde:
23 Speak to Aaron and to his sons, saying, Thus ye shall bless the children of Israel, saying to them,
Tal til Aron og hans Sønner og sig: Når I velsigner Israeliterne, skal I sige til dem:
24 The Lord bless thee and keep thee;
HERREN velsigne dig og bevare dig,
25 the Lord make his face to shine upon thee, and have mercy upon thee;
HERREN lade sit Ansigt lyse over dig og være dig nådig,
26 the Lord lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace.
HERREN løfte sit Åsyn på dig og give dig Fred!
27 And they shall put my name upon the children of Israel, and I the Lord will bless them.
Således skal de lægge mit Navn på Israeliterne, og jeg vil velsigne dem.
