Numbers 10

1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:

HERREN talede fremdeles til Moses og sagde:

2 Make thee two trumpets of beaten silver, wherewith thou mayest call together the multitude when the camp is to be removed.

Du skal lave dig to Sølvtrompeter; i drevet Arbejde skal du lave dem. Dem skal du bruge, når Menigheden skal kaldes sammen, og når Lejrene skal bryde op.

3 And when thou shalt sound the trumpets, all the multitude shall gather unto thee to the door of the tabernacle of the covenant.

Når der blæses i dem begge to, skal hele Menigheden samle sig hos dig ved Indgangen til Åbenbaringsteltet.

4 If thou sound but once, the princes and the heads of the multitude of Israel shall come to thee.

Blæses der kun i den ene, skal Øversterne, Overhovederne for Israels Stammer, samle sig hos dig.

5 But if the sound of the trumpets be longer, and with interruptions, they that are on the east side, shall first go forward.

Når I blæser Alarm med dem, skal Lejrene på Østsiden bryde op;

6 And at the second sounding and like noise of the trumpet, they who lie on the south side shall take up their tents. And after this manner shall the rest do, when the trumpets shall sound for a march.

blæser Alarm anden Gang, skal Lejrene på Sydsiden bryde op: tredje Gang skal Lejrene mod Vest bryde op, fjerde Gang Lejrene mod Nord; der skal blæses Alarm, når de skal bryde op.

7 But when the people is to be gathered together, the sound of the trumpets shall be plain, and they shall not make a broken sound.

Men når Forsamlingen skal sammenkaldes skal I blæse på almindelig Vis, ikke Alarm.

8 And the sons of Aaron the priest shall sound the trumpets: and this shall be an ordinance for ever in your generations.

Arons Sønner, Præsterne, skal blæse i Trompeterne; det skal være eder en evig gyldig Anordning fra Slægt til Slægt.

9 If you go forth to war out of your land against the enemies that fight against you, you shall sound aloud with the trumpets, and there shall be a remembrance of you before the Lord your God, that you may be delivered out of the hands of your enemies.

Når I drager i Krig i eders Land mod en Fjende, der angriber eder, og blæser Alarm med Trompeterne, skal I ihukommes for HERREN eders Guds Åsyn og frelses fra eders Fjender.

10 If at any time you shall have a banquet, and on your festival days, and on the first days of your months, you shall sound the trumpets over the holocausts, and the sacrifices of peace offerings, that they may be to you for a remembrance of your God. I am the Lord your God.

Og på eders Glædesdage, eders Højtider og Nymånedage, skal I blæse i Trompeterne ved eders Brændofre og Takofre; så skal de tjene eder til Ihukommelse for eders Guds Åsyn. Jeg er HERREN eders Gud!

11 The second year, in the second month, the twentieth day of the month, the cloud was taken up from the tabernacle of the covenant.

Den tyvende Dag i den anden Måned af det andet År løftede Skyen sig fra Vidnesbyrdets Bolig.

12 And the children of Israel marched by their troops from the desert of Sinai, and the cloud rested in the wilderness of Pharan.

Da brød Israeliterne op fra Sinaj Ørken, i den Orden de skulde bryde op i, og Skyen stod stille i Parans Ørken.

13 And the first went forward according to the commandment of the Lord by the hand of Moses.

Da de nu første Gang brød op efter Guds Bud ved Moses,

14 The sons of Juda by their troops: whose prince was Nahasson the son of Aminadab.

var Judæernes Lejr den første, der brød op under sit Felttegn, Hærafdeling for Hærafdeling; deres Hær førtes af Nahasjon, Amminadabs Søn.

15 In the tribe of the sons of Issachar, the prince was Nathanael the son of Suar.

Issakariternes Stammes Hær førtes af Netanel, Zuars Søn,

16 In the tribe of Zabulon, the prince was Eliab the son of Helon.

og Zebuloniternes Stammes Hær af Eliab, Helons Søn.

17 And the tabernacle was taken down, and the sons of Gerson and Merari set forward, bearing it.

Da derpå Boligen var taget ned, brød Gersoniterne og Merariterne op og bar Boligen.

18 And the sons of Ruben also marched, by their troops and ranks, whose prince was Helisur the son of Sedeur.

Så brød Rubens Lejr op under sit Felttegn, Hærafdeling for Hærafdeling; deres Hær førtes af Elizur, Sjedeurs Søn.

19 And in the tribe of Simeon, the prince was Salamiel the son of Surisaddai.

Simeoniternes Stammes Hær førtes af Sjelumiel, Zurisjaddajs Søn,

20 And in the tribe of Cad, the prince was Eliasaph the son of Duel.

og Gaditernes Stammes Hær af Eljasaf, Deuels Søn.

21 Then the Caathites also marched carrying the sanctuary. So long was the tabernacle carried, till they same to the place of setting it up.

Så brød Kehatiterne, der bar de hellige Ting, op; og før deres Komme havde man rejst Boligen.

22 The sons of Ephraim also moved their camp by their troops, in whose army the prince was Elisama the son of Ammiud.

Så brød Efraimiternes Lejr op under sit Felttegn, Hærafdeling for Hærafdeling; deres Hær førtes af Elisjema, Ammihuds Søn.

23 And in the tribe of the sons of Manasses, the prince was Gamaliel the son of Phadassur.

Manassiternes Stammes Hær førtes af Gamliel, Pedazurs Søn,

24 And in the tribe of Benjamin, the prince was Abidan the son of Gedeon.

og Benjaminiternes Stammes Hær af Abidan, Gidonis Søn.

25 The last of all the camp marched the sons of Dan by their troops, in whose army the prince was Ahiezer the son of Ammisaddai.

Så brød Daniternes Lejr op under sit Felttegn som Bagtrop i hele Lejrtoget, Hærafdeling for Hærafdeling; deres Hær førtes af Ahiezer, Ammisjaddajs Søn.

26 And in the tribe of the sons of Aser, the prince was Phegiel the son of Ochran.

Aseriternes Stammes Hær førtes af Pagiel, Okrans Søn,

27 And in the tribe of the sons of Nephtali, the prince was Ahira the son of Enan.

og Naftalitemes Stammes Hær af Ahira, Enans Søn.

28 This was the order of the camps, and marches of the children of Israel by their troops, when they set forward.

Således foregik Israelitternes Opbrud, Hærafdeling for Hærafdeling. Så brød de da op.

29 And Moses said to Hobab the son of Raguel the Madianite, his kinsman: We are going towards the place which the Lord will give us: come with us, that we may do thee good: for the Lord hath promised good things to Israel.

Men Moses sagde til Midjaniten Hobab, Reuels Søn, Moses's Svigerfader: "Vi bryder nu op for at drage til det Sted, HERREN har lovet at give os; drag med os! Vi skal lønne dig godt, thi HERREN har stillet Israel gode Ting i Udsigt."

30 But he answered him: I will not go with thee, but I will return to my country, wherein I was born.

Men han svarede ham: "Jeg vil ikke drage med; nej, jeg drager til mit Land og min Slægt."

31 And he said: Do not leave us: for thou knowest in what places we should encamp in the wilderness, and thou shalt be our guide.

Da sagde han: "Forlad os ikke! Du kender jo de Steder, hvor vi kan slå Lejr i Ørkenen; vær Øje for os!

32 And if thou comest with us, we will give thee what is the best of the riches which the Lord shall deliver to us.

Drager du med os, skal vi give dig Del i alt det gode, HERREN vil give os."

33 So they marched from the mount of the Lord three days’ journey, and the ark of the covenant of the Lord went before them, for three days providing a place for the camp.

Derpå brød de op fra HERRENs Bjerg og vandrede tre Dagsrejser frem, idet HERRENs Pagts Ark drog i Forvejen for at søge dem et Sted, hvor de kunde holde Hvil.

34 The cloud also of the Lord was over them by day when they marched.

Og HERRENs Sky svævede over dem om Dagen, når de brød op fra Lejren.

35 And when the ark was lifted up, Moses said: Arise, O Lord, and let thy enemies be scattered, and let them that hate thee, flee from before thy face.

Og hver Gang Arken brød op, sagde Moses: "Stå op, HERRE, at dine Fjender må splittes og dine Avindsmænd fly for dit Åsyn!"

36 And when it was set down, he said: Return, O Lord, to the multitude of the host of Israel.

Og hver Gang den standsede, sagde han: "Vend tilbage, HERRE, til Israels Stammers Titusinder!"
