Exodus 28
1 “Also, join to yourself your brother Aaron, with his sons from the midst of the sons of Israel, so that they may exercise the priesthood for me: Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar.
Du skal lade din Broder Aron og hans Sønner tillige med ham træde frem af Israeliternes Midte og komme hen til dig, for at de kan gøre Præstetjeneste for mig, Aron og Arons Sønner, Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar og Itamar.
2 And you shall make a holy vestment for Aaron, your brother, with glory and elegance.
Og du skal tilvirke din Broder Aron hellige Klæder til Ære og Pryd,
3 And you shall speak to all the wise of heart, whom I have filled with the spirit of prudence, so that they may make the vestments of Aaron, in which, having been sanctified, he may minister to me.
og du skal byde alle kunstforstandige Mænd, hvem jeg har fyldt med Kunstfærdigheds Aand, at tilvirke Aron Klæder, for at han kan helliges til at gøre Præstetjeneste for mig.
4 Now these shall be the vestments that they shall make: A breastplate and an ephod, a tunic and a close-fit linen garment, a headdress and a wide belt. They shall make the holy vestments for your brother Aaron and his sons, so that they may exercise the priesthood for me.
Klæderne, som de skal tilvirke, er følgende: Brystskjold, Efod, Kaabe, Kjortel af mønstret Stof, Hovedklæde og Bælte. De skal tilvirke din Broder Aron og hans Sønner hellige Klæder, for at de kan gøre Præstetjeneste for mig,
5 And they shall receive gold, and hyacinth, and purple, and twice-dyed scarlet, and fine linen.
og dertil skal de bruge Guldtraad, violet og rødt Purpurgarn, Karmoisinrødt Garn og Byssus.
6 Then they shall make the ephod of gold, and hyacinth, and purple, and twice-dyed scarlet, and fine twisted linen, wrought with diverse colors.
Efoden skal du tilvirke af Guldtraad, violet og rødt Purpurgarn, karmoisinrødt Garn og tvundet Byssus i Kunstvævning.
7 It shall have two edges joined at the top on both sides, so that they may respond as one.
Den skal have to Skulderstykker, der skal være til at hæfte paa; den skal hæftes sammen ved begge Hjørner.
8 Likewise, the weaving and all the detail work shall be of gold, and hyacinth, and purple, and twice-dyed scarlet, and fine twisted linen.
Og dens Bælte, som skal bruges, naar den tages paa, skal være af samme Arbejde og i eet med den; det skal være af Guldtraad, violet og rødt Purpurgarn, karmoisinrødt Garn og tvundet Byssus.
9 And you shall take two onyx stones and engrave on them the names of the sons of Israel:
Saa skal du tage de to Sjohamsten og gravere Israels Sønners Navne i dem,
10 six names on one stone, and the remaining six on the other, according to the order of their birth.
seks af Navnene paa den ene Sten og de andre seks paa den anden efter Aldersfølge;
11 By the work of a sculptor and the skill of a jeweler, you shall engrave them with the names of the sons of Israel, enclosed and encompassed with gold.
med Stenskærerarbejde, som ved Gravering af Signeter, skal du indgravere Israels Sønners Navne i de 14 Sten, og du skal indfatte dem i Guldfletværk.
12 And you shall place them on both sides of the ephod, as a memorial to the sons of Israel. And Aaron shall carry their names before the Lord, upon both shoulders, as a remembrance.
Disse to Sten skal du fæste paa Efodens Skulderstykker, for at Stenene kan bringe Israels Sønner i Minde, og Aron skal bære deres Navne for HERRENS Aasyn paa sine Skuldre for at bringe dem i Minde.
13 You shall also make hooks of gold,
Og du skal tilvirke Fletværk af Guld
14 and two little chains of the purest gold, linked to one another, which you shall insert into the hooks.
og to Kæder af purt Guld; du skal lave dem i snoet Arbejde, som naar man snor Reb, og sætte disse snoede Kæder paa Fletværket.
15 Likewise, you shall make the breastplate of judgment, wrought with diverse colors according to the weaving of the ephod: of gold, hyacinth and purple, and twice-dyed scarlet, and fine twisted linen.
Fremdeles skal du tilvirke Retskendelsens Brystskjold i Kunstvævning paa samme Maade som Efoden; af Guldtraad, violet og rødt Purpurgarn, karmoisinrødt Garn og tvundet Byssus skal du lave det;
16 It shall have four corners and be doubled. It shall have the measure of the palm of a hand, both in length and in width.
det skal være firkantet og lægges dobbelt, et Spand langt og et Spand bredt,
17 And you shall set within it four rows of stones. In the first row, there shall be a sardius stone, and a topaz, and an emerald.
Og du skal udstyre det med en Besætning af Sten, fire Rækker Sten: Karneol, Topas og Smaragd i den første Række,
18 In the second, there shall be a garnet, a sapphire, and a jasper.
Rubin, Safir og Jaspis i den anden,
19 In the third, there shall be a zircon, an agate, and an amethyst.
Hyacint, Agat og Ametyst i den tredje,
20 In the fourth, there shall be a chrysolite, an onyx, and a beryl. They shall be set in gold by their rows.
Krysolit, Sjoham og Onyks i den fjerde; og de skal omgives med Guldfletværk i deres Indfatninger.
21 And these shall have the names of the sons of Israel. With twelve names shall they be engraved: each stone with one name from the twelve tribes.
Der skal være tolv Sten, svarende til Israels Sønners Navne, en for hvert Navn; det skal være graveret Arbejde som Signeter, saaledes at hver Sten bærer Navnet paa en af de tolv Stammer.
22 You shall make chains of the purest gold, linked one to another, on the breastplate,
Til Brystskjoldet skal du lave snoede Kæder af purt Guld, snoet Arbejde, som naar man snor Reb.
23 and two rings of gold, which you shall place at both ends of the breastplate.
Til Brystskjoldet skal du lave to Guldringe og sætte disse to Ringe paa Brystskjoldets øverste Hjørner,
24 And the golden chains, you shall join to the rings, which are at its edges.
og de to Guldsnore skal du knytte i de to Ringe paa Brystskjoldets Hjørner;
25 And the ends of the chains themselves, you shall couple with two hooks, on both sides of the ephod, which looks toward the breastplate.
Snorenes anden Ende skal du anbringe i det Fletværker og fæste dem paa Forsiden af Efodens Skulderstykke.
26 You shall also make two rings of gold, which you shall place at the ends of the breastplate, at the borders which are away from the region of the ephod and which look toward its back.
Og du skal lave to andre Guldringe og sætte dem paa Brystskjoldets to andre Hjørner paa den indre, mod Efoden vendende Rand.
27 And then you shall also make two other rings of gold, which are to be suspended on both sides at the bottom of the ephod, which looks out opposite the face of the lower juncture, so that the breastplate can be fitted to the ephod.
Og du skal lave endnu to Guldringe og fæste dem paa Efodens to Skulderstykker forneden paa Forsiden, hvor den er hæftet sammen med Skulderstykkerne, oven over Efodens Bælte;
28 And it shall be drawn tight to the rings of the breastplate, by the rings of the ephod, with a hyacinth band, so that the well-constructed juncture will remain in place, and the breastplate and the ephod will not be able to be separated from one another.
og man skal med Ringene binde Brystskjoldet fast til Efodens Ringe ved Hjælp af en violet Purpursnor, saa at det kommer til at sidde oven over Efodens Bælte og ikke løsner sig fra Efoden.
29 And Aaron shall carry the names of the sons of Israel on the breastplate of judgment upon his chest, when he enters into the Sanctuary, as a memorial in the presence of the Lord in eternity.
Aron skal saaledes stedse bære Israels Sønners Navne paa Retskendelsens Brystskjold paa sit Hjerte, naar han gaar ind i Helligdommen, for at bringe dem i Minde for HERRENS Aasyn.
30 Then you shall place in the breastplate of judgment, Doctrine and Truth, which shall then be upon Aaron’s chest, when he enters before the Lord. And he shall wear the judgment of the sons of Israel on his chest, in the sight of the Lord always.
Og i Retskendelsens Brystskjold skal du lægge Urim og Tummim, saa at Aron bærer dem paa sit Hjerte, naar han gaar ind for HERRENS Aasyn, og Aron skal stedse bære Israeliternes Retskendelse paa sit Hjerte for HERRENS Aasyn.
31 And you shall make the tunic for the ephod entirely of hyacinth,
Fremdeles skal du tilvirke Kaaben, som hører til Efoden, helt og holdent af violet Purpur.
32 and the head will be above its middle, with a hem woven around it, just as is usually made at the end parts of a garment, so that it may not be easily broken.
Midt paa skal den have en Halsaabning ligesom Halsaabningen paa en Panserskjorte, omgivet af en Linning i vævet Arbejde, for at den ikke skal rives itu;
33 Yet truly, beneath it, at the base of the same tunic, all around, you shall make something like pomegranates, from hyacinth, and purple, and twice-dyed scarlet, with little bells set in their midst.
og langs dens nederste Kant skal du sy Granatæbler af violet og rødt Purpurgarn og karmoisinrødt Garn og mellem dem Guldbjælder hele Vejen rundt,
34 So then, there shall be a little golden bell and a pomegranate, and again another golden bell and a pomegranate.
saa at Guldbjælder og Granatæbler skifter hele Vejen rundt langs Kaabens nederste Kant.
35 And Aaron will be vested with it during the office of his ministry, so that the sound may be heard when he enters and exits the Sanctuary, in the sight of the Lord, and so that he may not die.
Aron skal bære den, naar han gør Tjeneste, saa at det kan høres, naar han gaar ind i Helligdommen for HERRENS Aasyn, og naar han gaar ud derfra, at han ikke skal dø,
36 And you shall make a plate of the purest gold, in which you shall engrave, with the skill of a sculptor, ‘Holy to the Lord.’
Fremdeles skal du lave en Pandeplade af purt Guld, og i den skal du gravere, som naar man graverer Signeter: »Helliget HERREN.«
37 And you shall fasten it with a band of hyacinth, and it shall be upon the headdress,
Den skal du fastgøre med en violet Purpursnor, og den skal sidde paa Hovedklædet, foran paa Hovedklædet skal den sidde.
38 hanging in front of the high priest. And Aaron shall carry the iniquities of that which the sons of Israel have offered and sanctified, in all their gifts and donations. But the plate will always be at his forehead, so that the Lord may be well pleased with them.
Aron skal bære den paa sin Pande, for at han kan tage de Synder paa sig, som klæder ved de hellige Gaver, Israeliterne frembærer, ved alle de hellige Gaver, de bringer; og Aron skal stedse have den paa sin Pande for at vinde dem HERRENS Velbehag.
39 And you shall draw the tunic tight with fine linen, and you shall make a headdress of fine linen, and a wide belt, wrought with embroidery.
Kjortelen skal du væve i mønstret Vævning af Byssus. Og du skal tilvirke et Hovedklæde af Byssus og et Bælte i broget Vævning.
40 Furthermore, for the sons of Aaron, you shall prepare linen tunics, and wide belts as well as headdresses, with glory and elegance.
Ogsaa til Arons Sønner skal du tilvirke Kjortler, og du skal tilvirke Bælter til dem og Huer til Ære og Pryd.
41 And with all these you shall vest your brother Aaron, and his sons with him. And you shall consecrate all their hands, and you shall sanctify them, so that they may exercise the priesthood for me.
Og du skal iføre din Broder Aron og hans Sønner dem, og du skal salve dem, indsætte dem og hellige dem til at gøre Præstetjeneste for mig.
42 You shall also make linen undergarments, in order to cover the flesh of their nakedness, from the kidneys all the way to the thighs.
Tillige skal du tilvirke Linnedbenklæder til dem til at skjule deres Blusel, og de skal naa fra Hoften ned paa Laarene.
43 And Aaron and his sons will use them when they enter the tabernacle of the testimony, and when they approach toward the altar, in order to minister in the sanctuary, lest, being guilty of iniquity, they may die. It shall be a law forever for Aaron, and for his offspring after him.”
Dem skal Aron og hans Sønner bære, naar de gaar ind i Aabenbaringsteltet eller træder frem til Alteret for at gøre Tjeneste i Helligdommen, at de ikke skal paadrage sig Skyld og lide Døden. En evig gyldig Anordning skal det være for ham og hans Afkom efter ham.
