Exodus 12
1 And Jehovah spoke to Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt, saying,
Derpaa talede HERREN til Moses og Aron i Ægypten og sagde:
2 This month shall be unto you the beginning of months: it shall be the first month of the year to you.
»Denne Maaned skal hos eder være Begyndelsesmaaneden, den skal hos eder være den første af Aarets Maaneder.
3 Speak unto all the assembly of Israel, saying, On the tenth of this month let them take themselves each a lamb, for a father's house, a lamb for a house.
Tal til hele Israels Menighed og sig: Paa den tiende Dag i denne Maaned skal hver Familiefader tage et Lam, et Lam for hver Familie.
4 And if the household be too small for a lamb, let him and his neighbour next unto his house take [it] according to the number of the souls; each according to [the measure] of his eating shall ye count for the lamb.
Og dersom en Familie er for lille til et Lam, skal han sammen med sin nærmeste Nabo tage et Lam, svarende til Personernes Antal; hvor mange der skal være om et Lam, skal I beregne efter, hvad hver enkelt kan spise.
5 Your lamb shall be without blemish, a yearling male; ye shall take [it] from the sheep, or from the goats.
Det skal være et lydefrit, aargammelt Handyr, og I kan tage det enten blandt Faarene eller Gederne.
6 And ye shall keep it until the fourteenth day of this month; and the whole congregation of the assembly of Israel shall kill it between the two evenings.
I skal have det gaaende til den fjortende Dag i denne Maaned, og hele Israels Menigheds Forsamling skal slagte det ved Aftenstid.
7 And they shall take of the blood, and put [it] on the two door-posts and on the lintel of the houses in which they eat it.
Og de skal tage noget af Blodet og stryge det paa de to Dørstolper og Overliggeren i de Huse, hvor I spiser det.
8 And they shall eat the flesh in that night, roast with fire, and unleavened bread; with bitter [herbs] shall they eat it.
I skal spise Kødet samme Nat, stegt over Ilden, og I skal spise usyret Brød og bitre Urter dertil.
9 Ye shall eat none of it raw, nor boiled at all with water, but roast with fire; its head with its legs and with its in-wards.
I maa ikke spise noget deraf raat eller kogt i Vand, men kun stegt over Ilden, og Hoved, Ben og Indmad maa ikke være skilt fra.
10 And ye shall let none of it remain until the morning; and what remaineth of it until the morning ye shall burn with fire.
I maa intet levne deraf til næste Morgen, men hvad der bliver tilovers deraf til næste Morgen, skal I brænde.
11 And thus shall ye eat it: your loins shall be girded, your sandals on your feet, and your staff in your hand; and ye shall eat it in haste; it is Jehovah's passover.
Og naar I spiser det, skal I have Bælte om Lænden, Sko paa Fødderne og Stav i Haanden, og I skal spise det i største Hast. Det er Paaske for HERREN.
12 And I will go through the land of Egypt in that night, and smite all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast; and against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgment: I am Jehovah.
I denne Nat vil jeg drage igennem Ægypten og ihjelslaa alt det førstefødte i Ægypten baade blandt Folk og Fæ; og over alle Ægyptens Guder vil jeg holde Dom. Jeg er HERREN!
13 And the blood shall be for you as a sign on the houses in which ye are; and when I see the blood, I will pass over you; and the plague shall not be among you for destruction, when I smite the land of Egypt.
Men for eder skal Blodet paa Husene, hvor I er, tjene som Tegn, og jeg vil se Blodet og gaa eder forbi; intet ødelæggende Slag skal ramme eder, naar jeg slaar Ægypten.
14 And this day shall be unto you for a memorial; and ye shall celebrate it [as] a feast to Jehovah; throughout your generations [as] an ordinance for ever shall ye celebrate it.
Denne Dag skal være eder en Mindedag, og I skal fejre den som en Højtid for HERREN, Slægt efter Slægt; som en evig gyldig Ordning skal I fejre den.
15 Seven days shall ye eat unleavened bread: on the very first day ye shall put away leaven out of your houses; for whoever eateth leavened bread from the first day until the seventh day — that soul shall be cut off from Israel.
I syv Dage skal I spise usyret Brød. Straks den første Dag skal I skaffe al Surdejg bort af eders Huse; thi hver den, som spiser noget syret fra den første til den syvende Dag, det Menneske skal udryddes af Israel.
16 And on the first day ye shall have a holy convocation, and on the seventh day a holy convocation: no manner of work shall be done on them, save what is eaten by every person — that only shall be done by you.
Paa den første Dag skal I holde Højtidsstævne og ligeledes paa den syvende Dag. Intet Arbejde maa udføres paa dem; kun det, enhver behøver til Føde, det og intet andet maa I tilberede.
17 And ye shall keep the [feast of] unleavened [bread]; for in this same day have I brought your hosts out of the land of Egypt; and ye shall keep this day in your generations [as] an ordinance for ever.
I skal holde det usyrede Brøds Højtid, thi paa denne selv samme Dag førte jeg eders Hærskarer ud af Ægypten, derfor skal I højtideligholde denne Dag i alle kommende Slægtled som en evig gyldig Ordning.
18 In the first [month], on the fourteenth day of the month, in the evening, ye shall eat unleavened bread until the one and twentieth day of the month in the evening.
Paa den fjortende Dag i den første Maaned om Aftenen skal I spise usyret Brød og vedblive dermed indtil Maanedens en og tyvende Dag om Aftenen.
19 Seven days shall there be no leaven found in your houses; for whoever eateth what is leavened — that soul shall be cut off from the assembly of Israel, whether he be a sojourner, or born in the land.
I syv Dage maa der ikke findes Surdejg i eders Huse, thi hver den, som spiser noget syret, det Menneske skal udryddes af Israels Menighed, de fremmede saa vel som de indfødte i Landet.
20 Ye shall eat nothing leavened: in all your dwellings shall ye eat unleavened bread.
I maa ikke nyde noget som helst syret; hvor I end bor, skal I spise usyret Brød.«
21 And Moses called all the elders of Israel, and said to them, Seize and take yourselves lambs for your families, and kill the passover.
Da kaldte Moses alle Israels Ældste sammen og sagde til dem: »Gaa ud og hent eder Smaakvæg til eders Familier og slagt Paaskeofferet;
22 And take a bunch of hyssop, and dip [it] in the blood that is in the bason, and smear the lintel and the two door-posts with the blood that is in the bason; and none of you shall go out of the door of his house until the morning.
og tag eder Ysopkoste, dyp dem i Blodet i Fadet og stryg noget deraf paa Overliggeren og de to Dørstolper; og ingen af eder maa gaa ud af sin Husdør før i Morgen.
23 And Jehovah will pass through to smite the Egyptians; and when he sees the blood on the lintel, and on the two door-posts, Jehovah will pass over the door, and will not suffer the destroyer to come into your houses to smite [you].
Thi HERREN vil gaa omkring og slaa Ægypterne, og naar han da ser Blodet paa Overliggeren og de to Dørstolper, vil han gaa Døren forbi og ikke give Ødelæggeren Adgang til eders Huse for at slaa eder.
24 And ye shall observe this as an ordinance for thee and for thy sons for ever.
Dette skal I varetage som en Anordning, der gælder for dig og dine Børn til evig Tid.
25 And it shall come to pass, when ye are come into the land that Jehovah will give you, as he has promised, that ye shall keep this service.
Og naar I kommer til det Land, HERREN vil give eder, saaledes som han har forjættet, saa skal I overholde denne Skik.
26 And it shall come to pass, when your children shall say to you, What mean ye by this service?
Naar da eders Børn spørger eder: Hvad betyder den Skik, I der har?
27 that ye shall say, It is a sacrifice of passover to Jehovah, who passed over the houses of the children of Israel in Egypt when he smote the Egyptians and delivered our houses. And the people bowed their heads and worshipped.
saa skal I svare: Det er Paaskeoffer for HERREN, fordi han gik Israeliternes Huse forbi i Ægypten, dengang han slog Ægypterne, men lod vore Huse urørte!« Da bøjede Folket sig og tilbad.
28 And the children of Israel went away, and did as Jehovah had commanded Moses and Aaron; so did they.
Og Israeliterne gik hen og gjorde, som HERREN havde paalagt Moses og Aron.
29 And it came to pass that at midnight Jehovah smote all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharaoh who sat on his throne to the firstborn of the captive that was in the dungeon, and all the firstborn of cattle.
Men ved Midnatstid ihjelslog HERREN alle de førstefødte i Ægypten lige fra Faraos førstefødte, der skulde arve hans Trone, til den førstefødte hos Fangen, der sad i Fangehullet, og alt det førstefødte af Kvæget.
30 And Pharaoh rose up in the night, he, and all his bondmen, and all the Egyptians; and there was a great cry in Egypt; for there was not a house in which there was not one dead.
Da stod Farao op om Natten tillige med alle sine Tjenere og alle Ægypterne, og der lød et højt Klageskrig i Ægypten, thi der var intet Hus, hvor der ikke fandtes en død.
31 And he called Moses and Aaron in the night, and said, Rise up, go away from among my people, both ye and the children of Israel; and go, serve Jehovah, as ye have said.
Og han lod Moses og Aron kalde om Natten og sagde: »Bryd op og drag bort fra mit Folk, I selv og alle Israeliterne, og drag ud og dyrk HERREN, som I har forlangt.
32 Also take your flocks and your herds, as ye have said, and go; and bless me also.
Tag ogsaa eders Smaakvæg og Hornkvæg med, som I har forlangt, og drag bort; og bed ogsaa om Velsignelse for mig!«
33 And the Egyptians urged the people, to send them out of the land in haste; for they said, We are all dead [men]!
Og Ægypterne trængte paa Folket for at paaskynde deres Afrejse fra Landet, thi de sagde: »Vi mister alle Livet!«
34 And the people took their dough before it was leavened; their kneading-troughs bound up in their clothes upon their shoulders.
Og Folket tog deres Dejg med sig, før den var syret, og de bar Dejgtrugene paa Skulderen, indsvøbte i deres Kapper.
35 And the children of Israel had done according to the word of Moses, and they had asked of the Egyptians utensils of silver, and utensils of gold, and clothing.
Men Israeliterne havde gjort, som Moses havde sagt, og bedt Ægypterne om Sølv og Guldsmykker og om Klæder;
36 And Jehovah had given the people favour in the eyes of the Egyptians, and they gave to them; and they spoiled the Egyptians.
og HERREN havde stemt Ægypterne gunstigt mod Folket, saa de havde givet dem, hvad de bad om. Saaledes tog de Bytte fra Ægypterne.
37 And the children of Israel journeyed from Rameses to Succoth, about six hundred thousand on foot [that were] men, besides children.
Saa brød Israeliterne op fra Ra'meses til Sukkot, henved 600 000 Mand til Fods foruden Kvinder og Børn.
38 And a mixed multitude went up also with them; and flocks and herds — very much cattle.
Desuden fulgte en stor Hob sammenløbet Folk med og dertil Smaakvæg og Hornkvæg, en vældig Mængde Kvæg.
39 And they baked the dough that they brought forth out of Egypt into unleavened cakes, for it was not leavened; for they were driven out of Egypt, and could not wait; neither had they prepared for themselves any food.
Og af den Dejg, de havde bragt med fra Ægypten, bagte de usyret Brød; den var nemlig ikke syret, de var jo drevet ud af Ægypten uden at faa Tid til noget; de havde ikke engang tilberedt sig Tæring til Rejsen.
40 And the residence of the children of Israel that they resided in Egypt was four hundred and thirty years.
Den Tid, Israeliterne havde boet i Ægypten, udgjorde 430 Aar.
41 And it came to pass at the end of the four hundred and thirty years, on that same day it came to pass that all the hosts of Jehovah went out from the land of Egypt.
Netop paa den Dag da de 430 Aar var til Ende, drog alle HERRENS Hærskarer ud af Ægypten.
42 It is a night of observance to Jehovah, because of their being brought out from the land of Egypt: that same night is an observance to Jehovah for all the children of Israel in their generations.
En Vaagenat var det for HERREN, i hvilken han vilde føre dem ud af Ægypten. Den Nat er viet HERREN, en Vaagenat for alle Israeliterne, Slægt efter Slægt.
43 And Jehovah said to Moses and Aaron, This is the ordinance of the passover: No stranger shall eat of it;
HERREN sagde til Moses og Aron: »Dette er Ordningen angaaende Paaskelammet: Ingen fremmed maa spise deraf.
44 but every man's bondman that is bought for money — let him be circumcised: then shall he eat it.
Men enhver Træl, der er købt for Penge, maa spise deraf, saafremt du har faaet ham omskaaret.
45 A settler and a hired servant shall not eat it.
Ingen indvandret eller Daglejer maa spise deraf.
46 In one house shall it be eaten; thou shalt not carry forth any of the flesh abroad out of the house; neither shall ye break a bone thereof.
Det skal spises i et og samme Hus, og intet af Kødet maa bringes ud af Huset; I maa ikke sønderbryde dets Ben.
47 All the assembly of Israel shall hold it.
Hele Israels Menighed skal fejre Paasken.
48 And when a sojourner sojourneth with thee, and would hold the passover to Jehovah, let all his males be circumcised, and then let him come near and hold it; and he shall be as one that is born in the land; but no uncircumcised person shall eat thereof.
Dersom en fremmed bor som Gæst hos dig og vil fejre Paaske for HERREN, da skal alle af Mandkøn hos ham omskæres; saa maa han være med til at fejre den, og han skal være ligestillet med den indfødte i Landet; men ingen uomskaaren maa spise deraf.
49 One law shall be for him that is home-born and for the sojourner that sojourneth among you.
En og samme Lov skal gælde for den indfødte i Landet og for den fremmede, der bor som Gæst hos eder.«
50 And all the children of Israel did as Jehovah had commanded Moses and Aaron; so did they.
Og Israeliterne gjorde, som HERREN havde paalagt Moses og Aron.
51 And it came to pass on that same day, [that] Jehovah brought the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt according to their hosts.
Paa denne selv samme Dag førte HERREN Israeliterne ud af Ægypten, Hærskare for Hærskare.
