Leviticus 17
1 And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
HERREN talede til Moses og sagde:
2 “Speak to Aaron and to his sons, and to all the sons of Israel; and you have said to them: This [is] the thing which YHWH has commanded, saying,
Tal til Aron og hans Sønner og alle Israeliterne og sig til dem: Dette har HERREN påbudt:
3 Any man of the house of Israel who slaughters ox, or lamb, or goat in the camp, or who slaughters [it] at the outside of the camp,
Om nogen af Israels Hus slagter et Stykke Hornkvæg, et Får eller en Ged i Lejren, eller han slagter dem uden for Lejren,
4 and has not brought it in to the opening of the Tent of Meeting to bring an offering near to YHWH before the Dwelling Place of YHWH, blood is reckoned to that man—he has shed blood—and that man has been cut off from the midst of his people;
uden at bringe dem hen til Åbenbaringsteltets Indgang for at bringe HERREN en Offergave foran HERRENs Bolig, da skal dette tillegnes den Mand som Blodskyld; han har udgydt Blod, og den Mand skal udryddes af sit Folk.
5 so that the sons of Israel bring in their sacrifices which they are sacrificing on the face of the field, indeed, they have brought them to YHWH, to the opening of the Tent of Meeting, to the priest, and they have sacrificed sacrifices of peace-offerings to YHWH with them.
Dette er anordnet, for at Israeliterne skal bringe deres Slagtofre, som de slagter ude på Marken, til HERREN, til Åbenbaringsteltets Indgang, til Præsten, og ofre dem som Takofre til HERREN.
6 And the priest has sprinkled the blood on the altar of YHWH, at the opening of the Tent of Meeting, and has made incense with the fat for refreshing fragrance to YHWH;
Præsten skal da sprænge Blodet på HERRENs Alter ved Indgangen til Åbenbaringsteltet og bringe Fedtet som Røgoffer, en liflig Duft for HERREN.
7 and they do not sacrifice their sacrifices anymore to the goat [idols] after which they are going whoring; this is a continuous statute to them, throughout their generations.
Og de må 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 And you say to them: Any man of the house of Israel, or of the sojourners who sojourns in your midst, who causes burnt-offering or sacrifice to ascend,
Og du skal sige til dem: Om nogen af Israels Hus eller de fremmede, der bor iblandt eder, ofrer et Brændoffer eller Slagtoffer
9 and does not bring it in to the opening of the Tent of Meeting to make it to YHWH—that man has been cut off from his people.
og ikke bringer det hen til Åbenbaringsteltets Indgang for at ofre det til HERREN, da skal den Mand udryddes af sin Slægt.
10 And any man of the house of Israel, or of the sojourners who is sojourning in your midst, who eats any blood, I have even set My face against the person who is eating the blood, and have cut him off from the midst of his people;
Om nogen af Israels Hus eller af de fremmede, der bor iblandt dem, nyder noget Blod, så vender jeg mit Åsyn mod den, der nyder Blodet, og udrydde1 ham af hans Folk.
11 for the life of the flesh is in the blood, and I have given it to you on the altar, to make atonement for your souls; for it [is] the blood which makes atonement for the soul.
Thi Kødets Sjæl er i Blodet, og jeg har givet eder det til Brug på Alteret til at skaffe eders Sjæle Soning; thi det er Blodet, som skaffer Soning, fordi det er Sjælen.
12 Therefore I have said to the sons of Israel: No person among you eats blood, and the sojourner who is sojourning in your midst does not eat blood;
Derfor har jeg sagt til Israeliterne: Ingen af eder må nyde Blod; heller ikke den fremmede, der bor iblandt eder, må nyde Blod.
13 and any man of the sons of Israel, or of the sojourners who is sojourning in your midst, who hunts game, beast or bird, which is eaten—has even poured out its blood and covered it with dust;
Om nogen af Israeliterne eller af de fremmede, der bor iblandt dem, nedlægger et Stykke Vildt eller en Fugl af den Slags, der må spises, da skal han lade Blodet løbe ud og dække det med Jord.
14 for [it is] the life of all flesh, its blood is for its life; and I say to the sons of Israel: You do not eat [the] blood of any flesh, for the life of all flesh is its blood; anyone eating it is cut off.
Thi om alt Køds Sjæl gælder det, at dets Blod er dets Sjæl; derfor har jeg sagt til Israeliterne: I må ikke nyde Blodet af noget som helst Kød, thi alt Køds Sjæl er dets Blod; enhver, der nyder det, skal udryddes.
15 And any person who eats a carcass or torn thing, among natives or among sojourners, has washed his garments and bathed with water, and been unclean until the evening—then he has been clean;
Enhver, der spiser seldøde 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; så er han ren.
16 and if he does not wash, and does not bathe his flesh—then he has borne his iniquity.”
Men hvis han ikke tvætter sine Klæder og bader sig, skal han undgælde for sin Brøde.
