Leviticus 26

1 Ye shall make you no idols, neither shall ye rear you up a graven image, or a pillar, neither shall ye place any figured stone in your land, to bow down unto it; for I am the LORD your God.

I maa ikke gøre eder Afguder; udskaarne Billeder og Stenstøtter maa I ikke rejse eder, ej heller maa I opstille nogen Sten med Billedværk i eders Land for at tilbede den; thi jeg er HERREN eders Gud!

2 Ye shall keep My sabbaths, and reverence My sanctuary: I am the LORD.

Mine Sabbater skal I holde, og min Helligdom skal I frygte. Jeg er HERREN!

3 If ye walk in My statutes, and keep My commandments, and do them;

Hvis I følger mine Anordninger og holder mine Bud og handler efter dem,

4 then I will give your rains in their season, and the land shall yield her produce, and the trees of the field shall yield their fruit.

vil jeg give eder den Regn, I behøver, til sin Tid, Landet skal give sin Afgrøde, og Markens Træer skal give deres Frugt.

5 And your threshing shall reach unto the vintage, and the vintage shall reach unto the sowing time; and ye shall eat your bread until ye have enough, and dwell in your land safely.

Tærskning skal hos eder vare til Vinhøst, og Vinhøst skal vare til Saatid. I skal spise eder mætte i eders Brød og bo trygt i eders Land.

6 And I will give peace in the land, and ye shall lie down, and none shall make you afraid; and I will cause evil beasts to cease out of the land, neither shall the sword go through your land.

Jeg vil give Fred i Landet, saa I kan lægge eder til Hvile, uden at nogen skræmmer eder op; jeg vil udrydde de vilde Dyr af Landet, og intet Sværd skal hærge eders Land.

7 And ye shall chase your enemies, and they shall fall before you by the sword.

I skal forfølge eders Fjender, og de skal falde for Sværdet foran eder.

8 And five of you shall chase a hundred, and a hundred of you shall chase ten thousand; and your enemies shall fall before you by the sword.

Fem af eder skal forfølge hundrede, og hundrede af eder skal forfølge ti Tusinde, og eders, Fjender skal falde for Sværdet foran eder.

9 And I will have respect unto you, and make you fruitful, and multiply you; and will establish My covenant with you.

Jeg vil vende mig til eder, jeg vil gøre eder frugtbare og mangfoldige, og jeg vil stadfæste min Pagt med eder.

10 And ye shall eat old store long kept, and ye shall bring forth the old from before the new.

I skal spise gammelt Korn, til I for det nye Korns Skyld maa tømme Laderne for det gamle.

11 And I will set My tabernacle among you, and My soul shall not abhor you.

Jeg vil opslaa min Bolig midt iblandt eder, og min Sjæl skal ikke væmmes ved eder.

12 And I will walk among you, and will be your God, and ye shall be My people.

Jeg vil vandre iblandt eder og være eders Gud, og I skal være mit Folk.

13 I am the LORD your God, who brought you forth out of the land of Egypt, that ye should not be their bondmen; and I have broken the bars of your yoke, and made you go upright.

Jeg er HERREN eders Gud, som førte eder ud af Ægypten, for at I ikke mere skulde være deres Trælle; jeg sønderbrød eders Aagstænger og lod eder vandre med rank Nakke.

14 But if ye will not hearken unto Me, and will not do all these commandments;

Men hvis I ikke adlyder mig og handler efter alle disse Bud,

15 and if ye shall reject My statutes, and if your soul abhor Mine ordinances, so that ye will not do all My commandments, but break My covenant;

hvis I lader haant om mine Anordninger og væmmes ved mine Lovbud, saa I ikke handler efter alle mine Bud, men bryder min Pagt,

16 I also will do this unto you: I will appoint terror over you, even consumption and fever, that shall make the eyes to fail, and the soul to languish; and ye shall sow your seed in vain, for your enemies shall eat it.

saa vil ogsaa jeg gøre lige for lige imod eder og hjemsøge eder med skrækkelige Ulykker: Svindsot og Feberglød, saa Øjnene sløves og Sjælen vansmægter. Til ingen Nytte saar I eders Sæd, thi eders Fjender skal fortære den.

17 And I will set My face against you, and ye shall be smitten before your enemies; they that hate you shall rule over you; and ye shall flee when none pursueth you.

Jeg vender mit Aasyn imod eder, saa I bliver slaaet paa Flugt for eders Fjender; eders Avindsmænd skal underkue eder, og I skal flygte, selv om ingen forfølger eder.

18 And if ye will not yet for these things hearken unto Me, then I will chastise you seven times more for your sins.

Og hvis I alligevel ikke adlyder mig, saa vil jeg tugte eder endnu mere, ja syvfold, for eders Synder.

19 And I will break the pride of your power; and I will make your heaven as iron, and your earth as brass.

Jeg vil bryde eders hovmodige Trods, jeg vil gøre eders Himmel som Jern og eders Jord som Kobber.

20 And your strength shall be spent in vain; for your land shall not yield her produce, neither shall the trees of the land yield their fruit.

Til ingen Nytte skal I slide eders Kræfter op, thi eders Jord skal ikke give sin Afgrøde, og Landets Træer skal ikke give deres Frugt.

21 And if ye walk contrary unto Me, and will not hearken unto Me; I will bring seven times more plagues upon you according to your sins.

Og hvis I alligevel handler genstridigt imod mig og ikke adlyder mig, saa vil jeg slaa eder endnu mere, ja syvfold, for eders Synder.

22 And I will send the beast of the field among you, which shall rob you of your children, and destroy your cattle, and make you few in number; and your ways shall become desolate.

Jeg vil sende Markens vilde Dyr imod eder, for at de skal røve eders Børn fra eder, udrydde eders Kvæg og mindske eders Tal, saa eders Veje bliver øde.

23 And if in spite of these things ye will not be corrected unto Me, but will walk contrary unto Me;

Og hvis I alligevel ikke tager mod min Tugt, men handler genstridigt imod mig,

24 then will I also walk contrary unto you; and I will smite you, even I, seven times for your sins.

saa vil ogsaa jeg handle genstridigt imod eder og slaa eder syvfold for eders Synder.

25 And I will bring a sword upon you, that shall execute the vengeance of the covenant; and ye shall be gathered together within your cities; and I will send the pestilence among you; and ye shall be delivered into the hand of the enemy.

Jeg vil bringe et Hævnens Sværd over eder til Hævn for den brudte Pagt; og søger I Tilflugt i eders Byer, vil jeg sende Pest iblandt eder, saa I maa overgive eder i Fjendens Haand.

26 When I break your staff of bread, ten women shall bake your bread in one oven, and they shall deliver your bread again by weight; and ye shall eat, and not be satisfied.

Naar jeg bryder Brødets Støttestav for eder, skal ti Kvinder bage eders Brød i een Bagerovn og give eder Brødet tilbage efter Vægt, saa I ikke han spise eder mætte.

27 And if ye will not for all this hearken unto Me, but walk contrary unto Me;

Og hvis I alligevel ikke adlyder mig, men handler genstridigt mod mig,

28 then I will walk contrary unto you in fury; and I also will chastise you seven times for your sins.

saa vil ogsaa jeg i Vrede handle genstridigt mod eder og tugte eder syvfold for eders Synder.

29 And ye shall eat the flesh of your sons, and the flesh of your daughters shall ye eat.

I skal fortære eders Sønners Kød, og eders Døtres Kød skal I fortære.

30 And I will destroy your high places, and cut down your sun-pillars, and cast your carcasses upon the carcasses of your idols; and My soul shall abhor you.

Jeg vil lægge eders Offerhøje øde og tilintetgøre eders Solsøjler; jeg vil dynge eders Lig oven paa Ligene af eders Afgudsbilleder, og min Sjæl skal væmmes ved eder.

31 And I will make your cities a waste, and will bring your sanctuaries unto desolation, and I will not smell the savour of your sweet odours.

Jeg vil lægge eders Byer i Ruiner og ødelægge eders Helligdomme og ikke indaande eders liflige Offerduft.

32 And I will bring the land into desolation; and your enemies that dwell therein shall be astonished at it.

Jeg vil lægge eders Land øde, saa eders Fjender, der bor deri, skal blive maalløse derover;

33 And you will I scatter among the nations, and I will draw out the sword after you; and your land shall be a desolation, and your cities shall be a waste.

og eder selv vil jeg sprede blandt Folkeslagene, og jeg vil gaa bag efter eder med draget Sværd. Eders Land skal blive en Ørken, og eders Byer skal lægges i Ruiner.

34 Then shall the land be paid her sabbaths, as long as it lieth desolate, and ye are in your enemies' land; even then shall the land rest, and repay her sabbaths.

Da skal Landet, medens det ligger øde, og I er i eders Fjenders Land, faa sine Sabbater godtgjort, da skal Landet hvile og faa sine Sabbater godtgjort;

35 As long as it lieth desolate it shall have rest; even the rest which it had not in your sabbaths, when ye dwelt upon it.

medens det ligger øde, skal det faa den Hvile, det ikke fik paa eders Sabbater, dengang I boede deri.

36 And as for them that are left of you, I will send a faintness into their heart in the lands of their enemies; and the sound of a driven leaf shall chase them; and they shall flee, as one fleeth from the sword; and they shall fall when none pursueth.

Men dem, der bliver tilbage af eder, over deres Hjerter bringer jeg Modløshed i deres Fjenders Lande, saa at Lyden af et raslende Blad kan drive dem paa Flugt, saa de flygter, som man flygter for Sværdet, og falder, skønt ingen forfølger dem;

37 And they shall stumble one upon another, as it were before the sword, when none pursueth; and ye shall have no power to stand before your enemies.

de skal falde over hverandre, som om Sværdet var efter dem, skønt ingen forfølger dem; og I skal ikke holde Stand over for eders Fjender.

38 And ye shall perish among the nations, and the land of your enemies shall eat you up.

I skal gaa til Grunde blandt Folkeslagene, eders Fjenders Land skal fortære eder.

39 And they that are left of you shall pine away in their iniquity in your enemies' lands; and also in the iniquities of their fathers shall they pine away with them.

De, der bliver tilbage af eder, skal sygne hen for deres Misgernings Skyld i eders Fjenders Lande, ogsaa for deres Fædres Misgerninger skal de sygne hen ligesom de.

40 And they shall confess their iniquity, and the iniquity of their fathers, in their treachery which they committed against Me, and also that they have walked contrary unto Me.

Da skal de bekende deres Misgerning og deres Fædres Misgerning, den Troløshed, de begik imod mig. Ogsaa skal de bekende, at fordi de handlede genstridigt mod mig,

41 I also will walk contrary unto them, and bring them into the land of their enemies; if then perchance their uncircumcised heart be humbled, and they then be paid the punishment of their iniquity;

maatte ogsaa jeg handle genstridigt mod dem og føre dem bort til deres Fjenders Land; ja, da skal deres uomskaarne Hjerter ydmyges, og de skal undgælde for deres Skyld.

42 then will I remember My covenant with Jacob, and also My covenant with Isaac, and also My covenant with Abraham will I remember; and I will remember the land.

Da vil jeg komme min Pagt med Jakob i Hu, ogsaa min Pagt med Isak, ogsaa min Pagt med Abraham vil jeg komme i Hu, og Landet vil jeg komme i Hu.

43 For the land shall lie forsaken without them, and shall be paid her sabbaths, while she lieth desolate without them; and they shall be paid the punishment of their iniquity; because, even because they rejected Mine ordinances, and their soul abhorred My statutes.

Men først maa Landet forlades af dem og have sine Sabbater godtgjort, medens det ligger øde og forladt af dem, og de skal undgælde for deres Skyld, fordi, ja, fordi de lod haant om mine Lovbud og væmmedes ved mine Anordninger.

44 And yet for all that, when they are in the land of their enemies, I will not reject them, neither will I abhor them, to destroy them utterly, and to break My covenant with them; for I am the LORD their God.

Men selv da, naar de er i deres Fjenders Land, vil jeg ikke lade haant om dem og ikke væmmes ved dem til deres fuldkomne Undergang, saa jeg skulde bryde min Pagt med dem; thi jeg er HERREN deres Gud!

45 But I will for their sakes remember the covenant of their ancestors, whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt in the sight of the nations, that I might be their God: I am the LORD.

Jeg vil til deres Bedste ihukomme Pagten med Fædrene, som jeg førte ud af Ægypten for Folkeslagenes Øjne for at være deres Gud. Jeg er HERREN!

46 These are the statutes and ordinances and laws, which the LORD made between Him and the children of Israel in mount Sinai by the hand of Moses.

Det er de Anordninger, Lovbud og Love, HERREN fastsatte mellem sig og Israeliterne paa Sinaj Bjerg ved Moses.
