Leviticus 17
1 The Lord told Moses,
HERREN talede til Moses og sagde:
2 “Tell Aaron, his sons, and all the Israelites that this is what the Lord commands:
Tal til Aron og hans Sønner og alle Israeliterne og sig til dem: Dette har HERREN paabudt:
3 Any Israelite who kills a bull, a lamb, or a goat, whether inside the camp or outside of it,
Om nogen af Israels Hus slagter et Stykke Hornkvæg, et Faar eller en Ged i Lejren, eller han slagter dem uden for Lejren,
4 instead of bringing it to the entrance to the Tent of Meeting to present it as an offering to the Lord there, that person shall be held guilty of illegal killing. They have shed blood and must be expelled from their people.
uden at bringe dem hen til Aabenbaringsteltets Indgang for at bringe HERREN en Offergave foran HERRENS Bolig, da skal dette tilregnes den Mand som Blodskyld; han har udgydt Blod, og den Mand skal udryddes af sit Folk.
5 This is why the Israelites have to bring to the Lord the sacrifices they currently offer out in the fields. They must bring them to the priest at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting and offer them as peace offerings to the Lord.
Dette er anordnet, for at Israeliterne skal bringe deres Slagtofre, som de slagter ude paa Marken, til HERREN, til Aabenbaringsteltets Indgang, til Præsten, og ofre dem som Takofre til HERREN.
6 The priest will sprinkle the blood on the altar of the Lord at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting, and burn the fat to be accepted by the Lord.
Præsten skal da sprænge Blodet paa HERRENS Alter ved Indgangen til Aabenbaringsteltet og bringe Fedtet som Røgoffer, en liflig Duft for HERREN.
7 They must not continue to offer their sacrifices to the goat devils with whom they have acted like prostitutes. This is a regulation for all time and for all future generations.
Og de maa ikke mere ofre deres Slagtofre til Bukketroldene, som de boler med. Det skal være en evig gyldig Anordning for dem fra Slægt til Slægt!
8 Warn them that any Israelite or any foreigner living among them who offers a burnt offering or a sacrifice
Og du skal sige til dem: Om nogen af Israels Hus eller de fremmede, der bor iblandt eder, ofrer et Brændoffer eller Slagtoffer
9 without bringing it to the entrance to the Tent of Meeting to sacrifice it to the Lord must be expelled from their people.
og ikke bringer det hen til Aabenbaringsteltets Indgang for at ofre det til HERREN, da skal den Mand udryddes af sin Slægt.
10 I will disown any Israelite or any foreigner living among them who eats any blood and I will expel them from their people.
Om nogen af Israels Hus eller af de fremmede, der bor iblandt dem, nyder noget Blod, saa vender jeg mit Aasyn mod den, der nyder Blodet, og udrydder ham af hans Folk.
11 Life is in the body's blood. I have given it to you so that by putting it on the altar your lives can be made right, for it is the lifeblood that makes people's lives right.
Thi Kødets Sjæl er i Blodet, og jeg har givet eder det til Brug paa Alteret til at skaffe eders Sjæle Soning; thi det er Blodet, som skaffer Soning, fordi det er Sjælen.
12 That's why I'm warning the Israelites: None of you is allowed to eat blood, and no foreigner living among you is allowed to eat blood.
Derfor har jeg sagt til Israeliterne: Ingen af eder maa nyde Blod; heller ikke den fremmede, der bor iblandt eder, maa nyde Blod.
13 Any Israelite or foreigner living among them who hunts and kills a wild animal or a bird which are allowed be eaten must drain the blood from its body and cover it with earth,
Om nogen af Israeliterne eller af de fremmede, der bor iblandt dem, nedlægger et Stykke Vildt eller en Fugl af den Slags, der maa spises, da skal han lade Blodet løbe ud og dække det med Jord.
14 for life is in the body's blood. That's why I have warned the Israelites: You are not allowed to eat the blood of anything living, for life is in the body's blood. Anyone who eats it must be expelled.
Thi om alt Køds Sjæl gælder det, at dets Blod er dets Sjæl; derfor har jeg sagt til Israeliterne: I maa ikke nyde Blodet af noget som helst Kød, thi alt Køds Sjæl er dets Blod; enhver, der nyder det, skal udryddes.
15 Anyone, Israelite or foreigner, who eats anything found dead or killed by wild animals must wash their clothes and wash with water, and they will be unclean until the evening. Then they will be clean.
Enhver, der spiser selvdøde eller sønderrevne Dyr, det være sig en indfødt eller en fremmed, skal tvætte sine Klæder og bade sig i Vand og være uren til Aften; saa er han ren.
16 But if they don't wash their clothes and wash themselves with water, then they bear responsibility for their guilt.”
Men hvis han ikke tvætter sine Klæder og bader sig, skal han undgælde for sin Brøde.
