Leviticus 20
1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
HERREN talede fremdeles til Moses og sagde:
2 You shall speak these things to the sons of Israel: A man among the sons Israel, or among the newcomers who live in Israel, if he will have given from his seed to the idol Moloch, he shall be put to death: the people of the land shall stone him.
Sig til Israeliterne: Om nogen af Israeliterne eller de fremmede, der bor hos Israel, giver sit Afkom hen til Molok, da skal han lide Døden; Landets Indbyggere skal stene ham,
3 And I will set my face against him. And I will cut him down from the midst of his people, because he has given from his seed to Moloch, and he has contaminated my Sanctuary, and polluted my holy name.
og jeg vender selv mit Aasyn imod den Mand og udrydder ham af hans Folk, fordi han gav sit Afkom hen til Molok for at gøre min Helligdom uren og vanhellige mit hellige Navn;
4 But if the people of the land, having been neglectful and holding little regard for my authority, release the man who has given from his seed to Moloch, and they are not willing to kill him,
og ser end Landets Indbyggere igennem Fingre med den Mand, naar han giver sit Afkom hen til Molok, og undlader at dræbe ham,
5 I will set my face over that man and over his kindred, and I will cut down both him and all who consented with him to fornicate with Moloch, from the midst of their people.
saa vender jeg dog selv mit Aasyn imod den Mand og hans Slægt og udrydder ham og alle dem, der følger i hans Spor og boler med Molok, af deres Folk.
6 The soul who will have turned aside to astrologers and soothsayers, and who will have fornicated with them, I will set my face against him, and I will destroy him from the midst of his people.
Det Menneske, som henvender sig til Genfærd eller Sandsigeraander og boler med dem, mod det Menneske vil jeg vende mit Aasyn og udrydde ham af hans Folk.
7 Be sanctified and be holy, for I am the Lord your God.
Helliger eder og vær hellige; thi jeg er HERREN eders Gud!
8 Observe my precepts, and do them. I am the Lord, who sanctifies you.
Hold mine Anordninger og gør efter dem. Jeg er HERREN, som helliger eder!
9 Whoever curses his father or mother shall die a death; he has cursed his father and mother. So let his blood be upon him.
Thi enhver, som forbander sin Fader og sin Moder, skal lide Døden; han har forbandet sin Fader og sin Moder, derfor hviler der Blodskyld paa ham.
10 If anyone will have committed sexual acts with the wife of another, or will have perpetrated adultery with his neighbor’s spouse, they shall die a death, both the adulterer and the adulteress.
Om nogen bedriver Hor med en anden Mands Hustru, om nogen bedriver Hor med sin Næstes Hustru, da skal de lide Døden, Horkarlen saavel som Horkvinden.
11 Whoever will have slept with his stepmother, or will have uncovered the shame of his father, they shall both die a death. So let their blood be upon them.
Om nogen har Samleje med sin Faders Hustru, har han blottet sin Faders Blusel; de skal begge lide Døden, der hviler Blodskyld paa dem.
12 If any man will have slept with his daughter-in-law, both shall die, for they have acted according to wickedness. So let their blood be upon them.
Om nogen har Samleje med sin Sønnekone, skal de begge lide Døden; de har øvet Skændselsdaad, der hviler Blodskyld paa dem.
13 If any man has slept with a male in place of sexual intercourse with a female, both have committed a nefarious act, they shall die a death. So let their blood be upon them.
Om nogen ligger hos en Mand, paa samme Maade som man ligger hos en Kvinde, da har de begge øvet en Vederstyggelighed; de skal lide Døden, der hviler Blodskyld paa dem.
14 If any man, having taken the daughter as a wife, will have married her mother, he has acted according to wickedness. He shall be burnt alive with them. Neither shall so great a nefarious act persist in your midst.
Om nogen ægter en Kvinde og hendes Moder, er det grov Utugt: man skal brænde baade ham og begge Kvinderne; der maa ikke findes grov Utugt iblandt eder.
15 Whoever will have committed sexual acts with any animal or cattle, he shall die a death. Likewise, you shall slay the beast.
Om nogen har Omgang med et Dyr, skal han lide Døden, og Dyret skal I slaa ihjel.
16 The woman who will have lain under any animal at all shall be destroyed together with it. So let their blood be upon them.
Om en Kvinde kommer noget Dyr nær for at have kønslig Omgang med det, da skal du ihjelslaa baade Kvinden og Dyret; de skal lide Døden, der hviler Blodskyld paa dem.
17 Whoever will have taken his sister, the daughter of his father or the daughter of his mother, and will have seen her nakedness, and she will have looked upon her brother’s shame, they have committed a nefarious act. They shall be slain in the sight of their people, because they have uncovered one another’s nakedness. And they shall bear their iniquity.
Om en Mand tager sin Søster, sin Faders eller sin Moders Datter, til Ægte, saa han ser hendes Blusel, og hun hans, da er det en skammelig Gerning; de skal udryddes i deres Landsmænds Paasyn; han har blottet sin Søsters Blusel, han skal undgælde for sin Brøde.
18 Whoever has sexual intercourse with a woman in her menstrual flow, and has uncovered her nakedness, and she has opened the fountain of her blood, both shall be destroyed from the midst of their people.
Om en Mand har Samleje med en Kvinde under hendes maanedlige Svaghed og blotter hendes Blusel, idet han afdækker hendes Kilde, og hun afdækker sit Blods Kilde, da skal de begge udryddes af deres Folk.
19 You shall not expose the nakedness of your maternal or paternal aunt. Whoever does this has laid bare the shame of his own flesh; both shall bear their iniquity.
Du maa ikke blotte din Mosters og din Fasters Blusel, thi den, der gør det, afdækker sin kødelige Slægtnings Blusel; de skal undgælde for deres Brøde.
20 If any man has had sexual intercourse with the wife of his paternal or maternal uncle, and he has uncovered the shame of his close relative, both shall bear their sin. They shall die without children.
Om nogen har Samleje med sin Farbroders Hustru, da har han blottet sin Farbroders Blusel, de skal undgælde for deres Synd og dø barnløse.
21 Whoever will have married his brother’s wife has done an unlawful thing; he has uncovered his brother’s nakedness. They shall be without children.
Om nogen tager sin Broders Hustru til Ægte, da er det en uren Gerning; han har blottet sin Broders Blusel; de skal blive barnløse.
22 Observe my laws as well as my judgments, and act according to them, lest the land, into which you will enter and live, may vomit you out, too.
Hold alle mine Anordninger og Lovbud og gør efter dem, at ikke Landet, jeg føler eder ind at bo i, skal udspy eder.
23 Do not be willing to walk by the ordinances of the nations, which I will expel before you. For they have done all these things, and so I abominate them.
Følg ikke det Folks Skikke, som jeg driver bort foran eder, thi de har øvet alt dette; derfor væmmedes jeg ved dem
24 But I say to you: Possess their land, which I will give to you as an inheritance, a land flowing with milk and honey. I am the Lord your God, who has separated you from the other peoples.
og sagde til eder: I skal faa deres Land i Eje; jeg giver eder det i Eje, et Land, der flyder med Mælk og Honning. Jeg er HERREN eders Gud, som har udskilt eder fra alle andre Folkeslag.
25 Therefore, you must also separate the clean animals from the unclean, and the clean birds from the unclean. Do not pollute your souls with cattle, or birds, or anything that moves upon the earth, and which I have shown you to be unclean.
I skal skelne mellem rene og urene Dyr og mellem urene og rene Fugle for ikke at gøre eder selv til en Vederstyggelighed ved de Dyr og de Fugle og alt, hvad der rører sig paa Jorden, alt, hvad jeg har udskilt for eder og erklæret for urent.
26 You shall be holy unto me, because I, the Lord, am holy, and I have separated you from the other peoples, so that you would be mine.
Og I skal være mig hellige, thi jeg HERREN er hellig, og jeg har udskilt eder fra alle andre Folkeslag til at høre mig til.
27 A man or a woman, in whom there is an oracle-like or a divining spirit, shall be put to death. They shall stone them. So let their blood be upon them.
Naar der i en Mand eller Kvinde er en Genfærdsaand eller en Sandsigeraand, skal de lide Døden; de skal stenes, der hviler Blodskyld paa dem.
