Deuteronomy 5
1 And Moses calls to all Israel and says to them, “Hear, O Israel, the statutes and the judgments which I am speaking in your ears today, and you have learned them and have observed to do them.
Moses kaldte hele Israel sammen og sagde til dem: Hør, Israel, de Anordninger og Lovbud, som jeg kundgør eder i Dag! Lær dem og hold dem omhyggeligt.
2 Our God YHWH made a covenant with us in Horeb;
HERREN vor Gud sluttede en Pagt med os ved Horeb.
3 YHWH has not made this covenant with our fathers, but with us, we—these here—all of us living today.
Det var ikke med vore Fædre, HERREN sluttede den Pagt, men med os, vi, der i Dag er her til Stede, alle vi, der er i Live.
4 YHWH has spoken with you face to face on the mountain, out of the midst of the fire;
Ansigt til Ansigt talede HERREN med eder paa Bjerget ud fra Ilden.
5 I am standing between YHWH and you, at that time, to declare the word of YHWH to you, for you have been afraid from the presence of the fire, and you have not gone up into the mountain; for [He] says:
Jeg stod dengang som Mellemmand mellem HERREN og eder og kundgjorde eder HERRENS Ord; thi I var bange for Ilden og turde ikke stige op paa Bjerget.
6 I, YHWH, [am] your God who has brought you out from the land of Egypt, from a house of servants.
Han sagde: Jeg er HERREN din Gud, som førte dig ud af Ægypten, af Trællehuset.
7 You have no other gods in My presence.
Du maa ikke have andre Guder end mig.
8 You do not make a carved image for yourself, any likeness which [is] in the heavens above, or which [is] in the earth beneath, or which [is] in the waters under the earth.
Du maa ikke gøre dig noget udskaaret Billede eller noget Afbillede af det, som er oppe i Himmelen eller nede paa Jorden eller i Vandet under Jorden;
9 You do not bow yourself to them, nor serve them: for I, your God YHWH, [am] a zealous God, charging iniquity of fathers on sons, and on a third and on a fourth [generation] of those hating Me,
du maa ikke tilbede eller dyrke det, thi jeg HERREN din Gud er en nidkær Gud, der indtil tredje og fjerde Led straffer Fædres Brøde paa Børn af dem, som hader mig,
10 and doing kindness to thousands, of those loving Me and of those keeping My commands.
men i tusind Led viser Miskundhed mod dem, der elsker mig og holder mine Bud!
11 You do not take up the Name of your God YHWH for a vain thing, for YHWH does not acquit him who takes up His Name for a vain thing.
Du maa ikke misbruge HERREN din Guds Navn, thi HERREN lader ikke den ustraffet, der misbruger hans Navn!
12 Observe the Sabbath day to sanctify it, as your God YHWH has commanded you;
Tag Vare paa Hviledagen, saa du holder den hellig, saaledes som HERREN din Gud har paalagt dig!
13 six days you labor and have done all your work,
I seks Dage skal du arbejde og gøre al din Gerning,
14 and the seventh day [is] a Sabbath to your God YHWH; you do not do any work, you, and your son, and your daughter, and your manservant, and your handmaid, and your ox, and your donkey, and all your livestock, and your sojourner who [is] within your gates, so that your manservant and your handmaid rest like yourself.
men den syvende Dag skal være Hviledag for HERREN din Gud; da maa du intet Arbejde udføre, hverken du selv, din Søn eller Datter, din Træl eller Trælkvinde, din Okse eller dit Æsel eller noget af dit Kvæg eller den fremmede inden dine Porte, for at din Træl og Trælkvinde kan hvile ud ligesom du selv.
15 And you have remembered that you have been a servant in the land of Egypt, and your God YHWH brings you out from there by a strong hand and by an outstretched arm; therefore your God YHWH has commanded you to keep the Sabbath day.
Kom i Hu, at du selv var Træl i Ægypten, og at HERREN din Gud førte dig ud derfra med stærk Haand og udstrakt Arm; det er derfor, HERREN din Gud har paalagt dig at fejre Hviledagen!
16 Honor your father and your mother, as your God YHWH has commanded you, so that your days are prolonged, and so that it is well with you on the ground which your God YHWH is giving to you.
Ær din Fader og din Moder, saaledes som HERREN din Gud har paalagt dig, for at du kan faa et langt Liv, og det maa gaa dig vel i det Land, HERREN din Gud vil give dig.
17 You do not murder.
Du maa ikke slaa ihjel!
18 You do not commit adultery.
Du maa ikke bedrive Hor!
19 You do not steal.
Du maa ikke stjæle!
20 You do not answer [with] a false testimony against your neighbor.
Du maa ikke sige falsk Vidnesbyrd imod din Næste!
21 You do not desire your neighbor’s wife, nor do you covet your neighbor’s house, his field, and his manservant, and his handmaid, his ox, and his donkey, and anything which [is] your neighbor’s.
Du maa ikke begære din Næstes Hustru. Du maa ikke attraa din Næstes Hus, hans Mark, hans Træl eller Trælkvinde, hans Okse eller Æsel eller noget, der hører din Næste til!
22 YHWH has spoken these words to all your assembly in the mountain, out of the midst of the fire, [and] of the cloud, and of the thick darkness, [with] a great voice; and He has not added; and He writes them on two tablets of stone and gives them to me.
Disse Ord talede HERREN til hele eders Forsamling paa Bjerget ud fra Ilden, Skyen og Mulmet med vældig Røst uden at føje noget til; og han skrev dem op paa to Stentavler og gav mig dem.
23 And it comes to pass, as you hear the voice out of the midst of the darkness and of the mountain burning with fire, that you come near to me, all [the] heads of your tribes and your elderly,
Men da I hørte Røsten, der lød ud fra Mørket, medens Bjerget stod i lys Lue, kom I, alle Overhovederne for eders Stammer og eders Ældste, hen til mig
24 and say, Behold, our God YHWH has showed us His glory and His greatness; and we have heard His voice out of the midst of the fire; this day we have seen that God speaks with man—and he has lived.
og sagde: »Se, HERREN vor Gud har ladet os skue sin Herlighed og Storhed, og hans Røst har vi hørt ud fra Ilden; i Dag har vi oplevet, at Gud kan tale med Mennesker, uden at de dør.
25 And now, why do we die? For this great fire consumes us if we add to hear the voice of our God YHWH anymore—then we have died.
Men hvorfor skal vi dø? Thi denne vældige Ild vil fortære os; hvis vi skal blive ved at høre paa HERREN vor Guds Røst, maa vi dø!
26 For who of all flesh [is] he who has heard the voice of the living God speaking out of the midst of the fire like us, and lives?
Thi hvilken dødelig har nogen Sinde som vi hørt den levende Guds Røst ud fra Ilden og levet?
27 Draw near and hear all that which our God YHWH says, and you, you speak to us all that which our God YHWH speaks to you, and we have listened and done it.
Træd du hen og hør alt, hvad HERREN vor Gud siger; siden skal du saa sige os alt, hvad HERREN vor Gud taler til dig, og vi skal høre det og gøre derefter.«
28 And YHWH hears the voice of your words in your speaking to me, and YHWH says to me, I have heard the voice of the words of this people which they have spoken to you; they have done well [in] all that they have spoken.
Og da HERREN hørte, hvorledes I talte til mig, sagde han til mig: »Jeg har hørt, hvad dette Folk siger til dig, og alt, hvad de har sagt til dig, er ret;
29 O that their heart had been thus to them, to fear Me and to keep My commands [for] all the days, that it may be well with them and with their sons for all time!
gid de alle Dage maa have et saadant Hjerte, at de frygter mig og holder alle mine Bud, for at det maa gaa dem og deres Børn vel evindelig.
30 Go, say to them, Return for yourselves, to your tents;
Gaa derfor hen og byd dem at vende tilbage til deres Telte;
31 and you, stand here with Me, and let Me speak to you all the command, and the statutes, and the judgments which you teach them, and they have done [them] in the land which I am giving to them to possess it.
men bliv du staaende her hos mig, saa skal jeg kundgøre dig alle Budene, Anordningerne og Lovbudene, som du skal lære dem, og som de skal holde i det Land, jeg vil give dem i Eje!«
32 And you have observed to do as your God YHWH has commanded you, you do not turn aside [to] the right or left;
Gør derfor omhyggeligt saaledes, som HERREN eders Gud har paalagt eder, uden at vige til højre eller venstre;
33 in all the way which your God YHWH has commanded you—walk, so that you live, and [it is] well with you, and you have prolonged days in the land which you possess.”
følg altid den Vej, som HERREN eders Gud har paalagt eder at gaa, at I kan blive i Live og faa det godt og leve længe i det Land, I skal tage i Besiddelse!
