Leviticus 10

1 And Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, took each his censer, and they put therein fire, and put thereon incense: and they brought near before the Lord a strange fire, which he had not commanded them.

Men Arons Sønner Nadab og Abihu tog hver sin Pande, kom Ild i dem og lagde Røgelse derpaa og frembar for HERRENS Aasyn fremmed Ild, som han ikke havde paalagt dem.

2 And there went out a fire from before the Lord, and consumed them, and they died before the Lord.

Da for Ild ud fra HERRENS Aasyn og fortærede dem, saa de døde for HERRENS Aasyn.

3 Then said Moses unto Aaron, This is what the Lord hath spoken, saying, On those who are near unto me will I be sanctified, and before all the people will I be glorified: and Aaron held his peace.

Moses sagde da til Aron: »Det er det, HERREN talede om, da han sagde: Jeg viser min Hellighed paa dem, der staar mig nær, og min Herlighed for alt Folkets Øjne!« Og Aron tav.

4 And Moses called unto Mishael and Elzaphan, the sons of 'Uzziel, the uncle of Aaron, and said unto them, Come near, carry your brethren from before the sanctuary to without the camp.

Da kaldte Moses Misjael og Elzafan, Arons Farbroder, Uzziels Sønner, til sig og sagde til dem: »Kom og bær eders Frænder bort fra Helligdommen uden for Lejren!«

5 And they came near, and carried them in their coats to without the camp; as Moses had spoken.

Og de kom og bar dem uden for Lejren i deres Kjortler, som Moses havde sagt.

6 And Moses said unto Aaron, and unto Elazar and unto Ithamar, his sons, The hair of your head you shall not let grow long, and your garments you shall not rend, that ye die not, and that he be not wroth upon the whole congregation; but your brethren, the whole house of Israel, may bewail the burning which the Lord hath kindled.

Men Moses sagde til Aron og hans Sønner Eleazar og Itamar: »I maa hverken lade eders Haar vokse frit eller sønderrive eders Klæder, ellers skal I dø og Vrede komme over hele Menigheden; lad eders Brødre, hele Israels Hus, begræde den Brand, HERREN har antændt;

7 And from the door of the tabernacle of the congregation shall ye not go out, lest ye die; for the anointing oil of the Lord is upon you; and they did according to the word of Moses.

og vig ikke fra Aabenbaringsteltets Indgang, ellers skal I dø, thi HERRENS Salveolie er paa eder!« Og de gjorde som Moses sagde.

8 And the Lord spoke unto Aaron, saying,

Og HERREN talede til Aron og sagde:

9 Wine or strong drink shalt thou not drink, neither thou, nor thy sons with thee, when ye go in unto the tabernacle of the congregation, lest ye die: it shall be a statute for ever throughout your generations.

Vin og stærk Drik maa hverken du eller dine Sønner drikke, naar I gaaet ind i Aabenbaringsteltet, for at I ikke skal dø. Det skal være eder en evig gyldig Anordning fra Slægt til Slægt,

10 So that ye may be able to distinguish between the holy and the unholy, and between the unclean and the clean;

for at I kan gøre Skel mellem det hellige og det, der ikke er helligt, og mellem det urene og det rene,

11 And that ye may be able to teach the children of Israel all the statutes which the Lord hath spoken unto them by the hand of Moses.

og for at I kan vejlede Israeliterne i alle de Love, HERREN har kundgjort dem ved Moses.

12 And Moses spoke unto Aaron, and unto Elazar and unto Ithamar his sons, that were left, Take ye the meat-offering that is left of the fire-offerings of the Lord, and eat it unleavened beside the altar; for it is most holy.

Og Moses sagde til Aron og hans tilbageblevne Sønner Eleazar og Itamar: »Tag Afgrødeofferet, der er levnet fra HERRENS Ildoffer, og spis det usyret ved Siden af Alteret, thi det er højhelligt;

13 And ye shall eat it in a holy place, because it is thy fixed portion, and the fixed portion of thy sons, from the fire-offerings of the Lord; for so have I been commanded.

I skal spise det paa et helligt Sted; det er jo din og dine Sønners retmæssige Del af HERRENS Ildofre; thi saaledes er det mig paabudt.

14 And the breast which hath been waved and the shoulder which hath been lifted up, shall ye eat in a clean place, thou, and thy sons, and thy daughters with thee; for as thy fixed portion, and the fixed portion of thy sons, have they been given from the sacrifices of peace-offerings of the children of Israel.

Og Svingningsbrystet og Offerydelseskøllen skal I spise paa et rent Sted, du, dine Sønner og Døtre, thi de er givet dig tillige med dine Sønner som en retmæssig Del af Israeliternes Takofre;

15 The shoulder which is waved and the breast which is lifted up, shall they bring with the fat of the fire-offering, to make therewith a waving before the Lord: and then shall it be thine, and thy sons with thee, as a fixed portion for ever; as the Lord hath commanded.

Offerydelseskøllen og Svingningsbrystet skal man frembære sammen med de til Ildofre bestemte Fedtdele, for at Svingningen kan udføres for HERRENS Aasyn, og de skal tilfalde dig og dine Sønner tillige med dig som en evig gyldig Rettighed, saaledes som HERREN har paabudt!«

16 And the goat of the sin-offering Moses sought diligently, and behold, it was burnt: and he was angry with Elazar and Ithamar, the sons of Aaron who had been left, and said,

Og Moses spurgte efter Syndofferbukken, men se, den var opbrændt. Da blev han fortørnet paa Eleazar og Itamar, Arons tilbageblevne Sønner, og sagde:

17 Wherefore have ye not eaten the sin-offering in the holy place, seeing that it is most holy, and that he hath given it to you to bear the iniquity of the congregation, to make atonement for them before the Lord?

»Hvorfor har I ikke spist Syndofferet paa det hellige Sted? Det er jo dog højhelligt, og han har givet eder det, for at I skal borttage Menighedens Skyld og saaledes skaffe dem Soning for HERRENS Aasyn.

18 Behold, its blood was not brought within the holy place: ye should then have eaten it in the holy place, as I commanded.

Se, Blodet deraf er ikke blevet bragt ind i Helligdommens Indre, derfor havde det været eders Pligt at spise det paa det hellige Sted, saaledes som jeg har paabudt!«

19 And Aaron spoke unto Moses, Behold, this day have they offered their sin-offering, and their burnt-offering before the Lord; and things as these have befallen me: and if I had eaten the sin-offering today, would it have been pleasing in the eyes of the Lord?

Men Aron svarede Moses: »Se, de har i Dag frembaaret deres Syndoffer og Brændoffer for HERRENS Aasyn, og en saadan Tilskikkelse har ramt mig! Om jeg i Dag havde spist Syndofferkød, vilde HERREN da have billiget det?«

20 And when Moses heard this, it was pleasing in his eyes.

Da Moses hørte dette, billigede han det.
