Deuteronomy 12
1 These [are] the statutes and the judgments which you will take care! to observe in the land which he has given Yahweh [the] God of ancestors your to you to take possession of it all the days which you [are] alive on the land.
Dette er de Anordninger og Lovbud, I omhyggeligt skal handle efter i det Land, HERREN, dine Fædres Gud, giver dig i Eje, saa længe I lever paa Jorden.
2 Certainly you will destroy! all the places where they have served there the nations whom you [are] about to dispossess them gods their on the mountains high and on the hills and under every tree luxuriant.
I skal i Bund og Grund ødelægge alle de Steder, hvor de Folk, I driver bort, dyrker deres Guder, paa de høje Bjerge, paa Højene og under alle grønne Træer!
3 And you will break down altars their and you will shatter sacred pillars their and Asherah poles their you will burn! with fire and [the] images of gods their you will cut down! and you will destroy name their from the place that.
I skal nedbryde deres Altre og sønderslaa deres Stenstøtter, I skal opbrænde deres Asjerastøtter og omhugge deres Gudebilleder og udrydde deres Navn fra hvert saadant Sted.
4 Not you will do! thus to Yahweh God your.
I maa ikke bære eder saaledes ad over for HERREN eders Gud;
5 That except to the place where he will choose Yahweh God your from all tribes your to put name his there to dwelling its you will resort and you will go there towards.
men til det Sted, HERREN eders Gud udvælger blandt alle eders Stammer for at stedfæste sit Navn og lade det bo der, skal I søge, og der skal du gaa hen;
6 And you will bring there towards burnt offerings your and sacrifices your and tithes your and [the] contribution of hand your and votive offerings your and freewill offerings your and [the] firstborn of herd[s] your and flock[s] your.
derhen skal I bringe eders Brændofre og Slagtofre, eders Tiender og Offerydelser, eders Løfteofre og Frivilligofre og de førstefødte af eders Hornkvæg og Smaakvæg;
7 And you will eat there before Yahweh God your and you will rejoice in every undertaking of hand your you and households your which he has blessed you Yahweh God your.
der skal I holde Maaltid for HERREN eders Guds Aasyn og sammen med eders Husstand være glade over alt, hvad I erhverver, hvad HERREN din Gud velsigner dig med.
8 Not you must do! according to all that we [are] doing here this day everyone all the right in own eyes his.
I maa ikke bære eder ad, som vi nu for Tiden gør her, hvor enhver gør, hvad han finder for godt;
9 For not you have come until now to the resting place and to the inheritance which Yahweh God your [is] about to give to you.
thi endnu er I jo ikke kommet til det Hvilested og den Arvelod, HERREN din Gud vil give dig.
10 And you will pass over the Jordan and you will dwell in the land which Yahweh God your [is] giving as an inheritance you and he will give rest to you from all enemies your from round about and you will dwell security.
Men naar I er gaaet over Jordan og har fæstet Bo i det Land, HERREN eders Gud vil give eder til Arv, og han faar skaffet eder Ro for alle eders Fjender trindt omkring, saa I kan bo trygt,
11 And it will be the place which he will choose Yahweh God your it to cause to dwell name his there there towards you will bring all that I [am] commanding you burnt offerings your and sacrifices your tithes your and [the] contribution of hand your and all [the] choicest of votive offerings your which you will vow to Yahweh.
da skal det Sted, HERREN eders Gud udvælger til Bolig for sit Navn, være det, hvorhen I skal bringe alt, hvad jeg paalægger eder, eders Brændofre og Slagtofre, eders Tiender og Offerydelser og alle eders udvalgte Løfteofre, som I lover HERREN;
12 And you will rejoice before Yahweh God your you and sons your and daughters your and [male] servants your and female servants your and the Levite who [is] in gates your for not [belongs] to him a portion and an inheritance with you.
og der skal I være glade for HERREN eders Guds Aasyn sammen med eders Sønner og Døtre, eders Trælle og Trælkvinder og Leviten inden eders Porte; thi han har jo ingen Arvelod og Del som I andre.
13 Take heed to yourself lest you should offer up burnt offerings your in every place which you will see.
Vogt dig for at ofre dine Brændofre paa et hvilket som helst Sted, dit Øje falder paa.
14 That except in the place which he will choose Yahweh in one of tribes your there you will offer up burnt offerings your and there you will do all that I [am] commanding you.
Men paa det Sted HERREN udvælger i en af dine Stammer, der skal du ofre dine Brændofre, og der skal du gøre alt, hvad jeg paalægger dig.
15 Only in all [the] desire of self your you will slaughter - and you will eat meat according to [the] blessing of Yahweh God your which he has given to you in all gates your the unclean and the clean he will eat it like gazelle and like deer.
Derimod maa du, saa meget du lyster, slagte Kvæg og nyde Kød rundt om i dine Byer, alt som HERREN din Gud velsigner dig; urene og rene maa spise det, som var det Gazeller eller Hjorte.
16 Only the blood not you must eat on the ground you will pour out it like water.
Kun Blodet maa I ikke nyde; det skal du lade løbe ud paa Jorden som Vand.
17 Not you will be able to eat in gates your [the] tithe of grain your and new wine your and fresh oil your and [the] firstborn of herd your and flock your and all votive offerings your which you will vow and freewill offerings your and [the] contribution of hand your.
Men inden dine Porte maa du ikke nyde Tienden af dit Korn, din Most og din Olie eller de førstefødte af dit Hornkvæg og Smaakvæg eller noget af dine Løfteofre og Frivilligofre eller nogen af dine Offerydelser;
18 That except before Yahweh God your you will eat it in the place which he will choose Yahweh God your it you and son your and daughter your and [male] servant your and female servant your and the Levite who [is] in gates your and you will rejoice before Yahweh God your in every undertaking of hand your.
men for HERREN din Guds Aasyn, paa det Sted, HERREN din Gud udvælger, skal du nyde alt dette sammen med din Søn og Datter, din Træl og Trælkvinde og Leviten inden dine Porte, og du skal være glad for HERREN din Guds Aasyn over alt, hvad du erhverver dig.
19 Take heed to yourself lest you should neglect the Levite all days your on land your.
Vogt dig vel for at glemme Leviten, saa længe du lever i dit Land!
20 If he will enlarge Yahweh God your territory your just as he spoke to you and you will say I want to eat meat for it will desire appetite your to eat meat in all [the] desire appetite your you will eat meat.
Naar HERREN din Gud udvider dine Landemærker, som han har lovet dig, og du da faar Lyst til Kød og siger: »Jeg vil have Kød at spise«, saa spis kun Kød, saa meget du lyster.
21 If it will be [too] far for you the place where he will choose Yahweh God your to put name his there and you will slaughter some of herd your and some of flock your which he has given Yahweh to you just as I commanded you and you will eat in gates your in all [the] desire of self your.
Hvis det Sted, HERREN din Gud udvælger for der at stedfæste sit Navn, ligger langt fra dig, saa maa du slagte af dit Hornkvæg og Smaakvæg, som HERREN giver dig, saaledes som jeg har paalagt dig, og spise det inden dine Porte, saa meget du lyster.
22 Surely just as it is eaten the gazelle and the deer so you will eat it the unclean and the clean alike he will eat it.
Men du skal spise det, som man spiser Gazeller og Hjorte; baade urene og rene maa spise det.
23 Only be strong to not to eat the blood for the blood it [is] the life and not you must eat the life with the meat.
Kun maa du ufravigeligt afholde dig fra at nyde Blodet; thi Blodet er Sjælen, og du maa ikke nyde Sjælen tillige med Kødet.
24 Not you must eat it on the ground you will pour out it like water.
Du maa ikke nyde det, men du skal lade det løbe ud paa Jorden som Vand.
25 Not you must eat it so that it may go well for you and for children your after you for you will do the right in [the] eyes of Yahweh.
Afhold dig fra at nyde det, for at det kan gaa dig og dine Børn efter dig vel, idet du gør, hvad der er ret i HERRENS Øjne.
26 Only holy things your which they will belong to you and votive offerings your you will take and you will go to the place which he will choose Yahweh.
Men dine hellige Gaver og Løfteofre skal du komme med til det Sted, HERREN udvælger;
27 And you will make burnt offerings your the flesh and the blood on [the] altar of Yahweh God your and [the] blood of sacrifices your it will be poured out on [the] altar of Yahweh God your and the flesh you will eat.
og du skal bringe dine Brændofre, baade Kødet og Blodet, paa HERREN din Guds Alter; og Blodet af dine Slagtofre skal udøses paa HERREN din Guds Alter, men Kødet maa du spise.
28 Take care and you will hear all the words these which I [am] commanding you so that it may go well for you and for children your after you until perpetuity for you will do the good [thing] and the right in [the] eyes of Yahweh God your.
Adlyd omhyggeligt alle disse Bud, som jeg i Dag paalægger dig, for at det kan gaa dig og dine Børn efter dig vel til evig Tid, idet du gør, hvad der er godt og ret i HERREN din Guds Øjne.
29 If he will cut off Yahweh God your the nations where you [are] about to go there towards by dispossessing them from before you and you will dispossess them and you will dwell in land their.
Naar HERREN din Gud udrydder de Folk, du drager hen at drive bort, og du har drevet dem bort og bosat dig i deres Land,
30 Take heed to yourself lest you should be ensnared after them after have been destroyed they from before you and lest you should enquire of gods their saying how? do they serve the nations these gods their so I may do thus also I.
saa vogt dig for at lade dig lokke til at gaa i deres Fodspor, efter at de er udryddet foran dig, og for at spørge dig for angaaende deres Guder, idet du siger: »Hvorledes plejede disse Folkeslag at dyrke deres Guder? Saaledes vil ogsaa jeg bære mig ad.«
31 Not you will do thus to Yahweh God your for every abomination of Yahweh which he hates they have done to gods their for also sons their and daughters their they burn with fire to gods their.
Saaledes maa du ikke bære dig ad over for HERREN din Gud; thi alt, hvad der er HERREN en Vederstyggelighed, alt, hvad han hader, har de gjort over for deres Guder; ja, de brændte endog deres Sønner og Døtre til Ære for deres Guder!
32 Every word which I [am] commanding you it you will take care to do not you must add to it and not you must diminish from it.
Alt, hvad jeg paalægger eder, skal I omhyggeligt udføre. Du maa hverken lægge noget til eller trække noget fra.
