< Deuteronomy 1 >
1 These [are] the words which he spoke Moses to all Israel on [the] other side of the Jordan in the wilderness in the desert plain opposite to Suph between Paran and between Tophel and Laban and Hazeroth and Di Zahab.
Dette er de Ord, Moses talte til hele Israel hinsides Jordan i Ørkenen, i Arabalavningen, lige over for Suf, mellem Paran og Tofel, Laban, Hazerot og Di-Zahab,
2 [is] one [plus] Ten day[s] from Horeb [the] way of [the] mountain of Seir to Kadesh Barnea.
elleve Dagsrejser fra Horeb, regnet over Se'irs Bjerge til Kadesj-Barnea.
3 And it was in forty year in [the] one [plus] ten month on [day] one of the month he spoke Moses to [the] people of Israel according to all that he had commanded Yahweh him to them.
I det fyrretyvende Aar paa den første Dag i den ellevte Maaned kundgjorde Moses Israeliterne alt, hvad HERREN havde paalagt ham angaaende dem,
4 After had defeated he Sihon [the] king of the Amorite[s] who [was] dwelling in Heshbon and Og [the] king of Bashan who [was] dwelling in Ashtaroth in Edrei.
efter at han havde slaaet Amoriterkongen Sihon, der boede i Hesjbon, og Kong Og af Basan, der boede i Asjtarot og Edre'i.
5 On [the] other side of the Jordan in [the] land of Moab he undertook Moses he made clear the law this saying.
Hinsides Jordan i Moabs Land tog Moses sig for at fremsætte følgende Lovudlægning:
6 Yahweh God our he spoke to us at Horeb saying [is] enough for you remaining at the mountain this.
HERREN vor Gud talede til os ved Horeb og sagde: »I har nu længe nok opholdt eder ved Bjerget her;
7 Turn - and set out for yourselves and go [the] hill country of the Amorite[s] and to all neighbors its in the desert plain in the hill country and in the Shephelah and in the Negev and on [the] coast of the sea [the] land of the Canaanite[s] and Lebanon to the river great [the] river of Euphrates.
bryd derfor op og drag til Amoriternes Bjerge og til alle deres Naboer i Arabalavningen, paa Bjergene, i Lavlandet, i Sydlandet og ved Kysten, til Kana'anæernes Land og Libanon, lige til den store Flod, Eufratfloden.
8 See I set before you the land go and take possession of the land which he swore Yahweh to ancestors your to Abraham to Isaac and to Jacob to give to them and to offspring their after them.
Se, jeg giver Landet i eders Magt; drag derind og tag det Land i Besiddelse, som jeg tilsvor eders Fædre, Abraham, Isak og Jakob, at ville give dem og deres Afkom efter dem.«
9 And I said to you at the time that saying not I am able to alone me to bear you.
Dengang talte jeg til eder og sagde: »Jeg kan ikke ene bære eder.
10 Yahweh God your he has increased you and here you this day [are] like [the] stars of the heavens for multitude.
HERREN eders Gud har gjort eder talrige, og se, I er nu saa mange som Stjernerne paa Himmelen —
11 Yahweh [the] God of ancestors your may he add to you like you a thousand times and may he bless you just as he spoke to you.
maatte kun HERREN, eders Fædres Gud, gøre eder tusinde Gange saa talrige endnu og velsigne eder, som han har forjættet eder —
12 How? will I bear to alone me burden your and burden your and dispute[s] your.
men hvorledes skal jeg ene kunne bære hele Besværet og Arbejdet med eder og eders Stridigheder?
13 Provide for yourselves men wise and understanding and known to tribes your so I may appoint them chiefs your.
Sørg derfor for at finde nogle kloge, forstandige og erfarne Mænd i hver Stamme, som jeg kan sætte i Spidsen for eder!«
14 And you answered me and you said [is] good the word which you have spoken to do.
Dertil svarede I og sagde: »Det Forslag, du har fremsat, er godt!«
15 And I took [the] chiefs of tribes your men wise and known and I appointed them chiefs over you leaders of thousands and leaders of hundreds and leaders of fifties and leaders of tens and officials of tribes your.
Derfor tog jeg Overhovederne for eders Stammer, kloge og erfarne Mænd, og satte dem i Spidsen for eder som Øverste over tusinde, hundrede, halvtredsindstyve eller ti og som Tilsynsmænd over eders Stammer.
16 And I commanded judges your at the time that saying hear between countrymen your and you will judge righteousness between anyone and between countryman his and between sojourner his.
Dengang gav jeg saa eders Dommere det Paabud: »Hold Forhør, naar der er Stridigheder mellem eders Landsmænd, og døm retfærdigt, naar en Mand har en Sag, enten det er med en Landsmand eller med en, der bor som fremmed hos ham;
17 Not you will pay regard to faces in judgment as the small as the great you will listen! not you will be afraid of anyone for the judgment [belongs] to God it and the matter which it will be [too] hard for you you will bring near! to me and I will hear it.
vis ingen Personsanseelse for Retten; hør paa den ringeste som paa den største og frygt ikke for nogen; thi Dommen er Guds! Men Sager, som er eder for vanskelige, skal I forebringe mig, saa skal jeg holde Forhør i dem!«
18 And I commanded you at the time that all the things which you will do!
Og dengang gav jeg eder saa Paalæg om alt, hvad I skulde gøre.
19 And we set out from Horeb and we walked all the wilderness great and awesome that which you saw [the] way of [the] hill country of the Amorite[s] just as he had commanded Yahweh God our us and we came to Kadesh Barnea.
Derpaa brød vi op fra Horeb og drog gennem hele denne store, grufulde Ørken, som I selv har set, i Retning af Amoriternes Bjerge, saaledes som HERREN vor Gud havde paalagt os. Og vi kom til Kadesj-Barnea.
20 And I said to you you have come to [the] hill country of the Amorite[s] which Yahweh God our [is] about to give to us.
Da sagde jeg til eder: »I er nu kommet til Amoriternes Bjerge, som HERREN vor Gud vil give os.
21 See he sets Yahweh God your before you the land go up take possession of [it] just as he spoke Yahweh [the] God of ancestors your to you may not you be afraid and may not you be dismayed.
Se, HERREN din Gud har givet Landet i din Magt, drag derfor op og tag det i Besiddelse, saaledes som HERREN, dine Fædres Gud, har sagt til dig. Frygt ikke, men vær uforsagt!«
22 And you drew near! to me all of you and you said let us send out men before us so they may spy out for us the land so they may bring back us word the way which we will go up on it and the cities which we will go to them.
Da kom I alle hen til mig og sagde: »Lad os sende nogle Mænd i forvejen til at udspejde Landet for os og bringe os Underretning om den Vej, vi skal drage op ad, og om de Byer, vi kommer til!«
23 And it was good in view my the thing and I took from you two [plus] ten men a man one to the tribe.
Jeg billigede det og udtog tolv Mænd iblandt eder, en af hver Stamme.
24 And they turned and they went up the hill country towards and they came to [the] wadi of Eshcol and they spied out it.
De begav sig paa Vej og drog op i Bjergene og kom til Esjkoldalen og udspejdede den;
25 And they took in hand their some of [the] fruit of the land and they brought [it] down to us and they brought back us word and they said [is] good the land which Yahweh God our [is] about to give to us.
og de tog nogle af Landets Frugter med og bragte dem ned til os, og de meldte os tilbage: »Det er et herligt Land, HERREN vor Gud vil give os!«
26 And not you were willing to go up and you rebelled toward [the] mouth of Yahweh God your.
Men I vilde ikke drage op, I var genstridige mod HERREN eders Guds Befaling.
27 And you murmured in tents your and you said in [the] hatred of Yahweh us he brought out us from [the] land of Egypt to give us in [the] hand of the Amorite[s] to destroy us.
I knurrede i eders Telte og sagde: »Af Had til os førte HERREN os ud af Ægypten for at give os i Amoriternes Haand og lade os gaa til Grunde!
28 Where? - [are] we going up countrymen our they have made melt heart our saying [the] people [is] great and lofty more than us [the] cities [are] large and fortified in the heavens and also [the] descendants of [the] Anakites we saw there.
Hvor er det dog, vi skal hen? Vore Brødre tog Modet fra os, da de sagde: Det er et Folk, der er større og højere end vi, og der er store Byer med himmelhøje Fæstningsværker, ja, vi saa endog Efterkommere af Anakiterne der!«
29 And I said to you not you must be terrified! and not you must be afraid! from them.
Men jeg sagde til eder: »Lad eder ikke skræmme og frygt ikke for dem!
30 Yahweh God your [is] the [one who] goes before you he he will fight for you according to all that he did with you in Egypt to eyes your.
HERREN eders Gud, der vandrer foran eder, vil selv stride for eder, som I saa, han gjorde det for eder i Ægypten
31 And in the wilderness where you saw that he carried you Yahweh God your just as he carries anyone child his on all the journey which you walked until came you to the place this.
og i Ørkenen, hvor du saa, at HERREN din Gud bar dig, som en Mand bærer sin Søn, hele den Vej I har vandret, lige til I naaede hertil!«
32 And in the thing this not you [were] trusting in Yahweh God your.
Men alligevel troede I ikke paa HERREN eders Gud,
33 Who went before you on the journey to seek out for you a place to camp you in the fire - night to show you the way which you will go on it and in the cloud by day.
skønt han vandrede foran eder paa Vejen for at udsøge Lejrpladser til eder, om Natten i Ilden, for at I kunde se, hvor I skulde gaa, og om Dagen i Skyen.
34 And he heard Yahweh [the] sound of words your and he was angry and he swore an oath saying.
Men da HERREN hørte eders Ord, blev han vred og svor:
35 If he will see anyone among the men these the generation evil this the land good which I swore to give to ancestors your.
»Ikke en eneste af disse Mænd, af denne onde Slægt, skal faa det herlige Land at se, som jeg svor at ville give eders Fædre,
36 Except Caleb [the] son of Jephunneh he he will see it and to him I will give the land which he has trodden on it and to sons his because that he filled after Yahweh.
undtagen Kaleb, Jefunnes Søn; han alene skal faa det at se, og ham og hans Børn vil jeg give det Land, han har betraadt, fordi han har vist HERREN fuld Lydighed!«
37 Also with me he was angry Yahweh on account of you saying also you not you will go there.
Ogsaa paa mig blev HERREN vred for eders Skyld, og han sagde: »Heller ikke du skal komme derind!
38 Joshua ([the] son of *L(abh)*) Nun who stands before you he he will go there towards him encourage for he he will give as an inheritance it Israel.
Josua, Nuns Søn, der staar i din Tjeneste, han skal komme derind; sæt Mod i ham, thi han skal skaffe Israel det i Eje.«
39 And little one[s] your who you said plunder he will become and children your who not they know this day good and evil they they will go there towards and to them I will give it and they they will take possession of it.
Og dets smaa Børn, som I sagde skulde blive til Bytte, eders Børn, som i Dag ikke kender Forskel paa godt og ondt, de skal komme derind, dem vil jeg give det, og de skal tage det i Besiddelse.
40 And you turn yourselves and set out the wilderness towards [the] way of [the] sea of reed[s].
I selv derimod skal vende om og begive eder paa Vej til Ørkenen i Retning af det røde Hav!«
41 And you answered - and you said to me we have sinned to Yahweh we we will go up and we will fight according to all that he has commanded us Yahweh God our and you girded on everyone [the] weapons of war his and you regarded as easy to go up the hill country towards.
Da svarede I og sagde til mig: »Vi har syndet imod HERREN! Vi vil drage op og kæmpe, som HERREN vor Gud har befalet os!« Og alle iførte I eder eders Vaaben og vilde i Letsindighed drage op i Bjergene.
42 And he said Yahweh to me say to them not you must go up and not you must fight for not I [will be] in midst your and not you will be defeated before enemies your.
Men HERREN sagde til mig: »Sig til dem: Drag ikke op og indlad eder ikke i Kamp, thi jeg er ikke iblandt eder; gør I det, bliver I slaaet af eders Fjender!«
43 And I spoke to you and not you listened and you rebelled against [the] mouth of Yahweh and you acted presumptuously and you went up the hill country towards.
Men da jeg sagde det til eder, adlød I ikke, men var genstridige mod HERRENS Bud og formastede eder til at drage op i Bjergene.
44 And he came out the Amorite[s] who was dwelling in the hill country that to meet you and they pursued you just as they do bees and they scattered you in Seir to Hormah.
Da drog Amoriterne, der bor i Bjergene der, ud imod eder, og de forfulgte eder som Bier og slog eder fra Se'ir til Horma.
45 And you returned and you wept before Yahweh and not he listened Yahweh to voice your and not he gave ear to you.
Da I saa kom tilbage, græd I for HERRENS Aasyn; men HERREN vilde ikke høre eder og laane eder Øre.
46 And you remained at Kadesh days many like the days which you remained.
Saa blev I hele den lange Tid i Kadesj.
