Deuteronomy 14
1 “We are people who belong to Yahweh our God. So, when people die, do not show that you are grieving by gashing/cutting yourselves or by shaving the hair on your foreheads [like the other people-groups do].
HERREN eders Guds Børn er I, derfor må I ikke indridse Mærker på eder eller afrage Håret over Panden for de dødes Skyld.
2 We belong to Yahweh alone. Yahweh chose us from all the other people-groups on the earth to be his special people.
Thi du er et Folk, der er helliget HERREN din Gud, og dig har HERREN udvalgt til at være hans Ejendomsfolk blandt alle Folk på Jorden.
3 “Do not eat anything that [Yahweh] detests.
Du må ikke spise noget, som er en Vederstyggelighed.
4 The animals [whose meat] you are permitted to eat are cattle, sheep, goats,
De Dyr, I må spise, er følgende: Okser, Får og Geder,
5 deer, gazelles, wild goats, antelopes, and mountain sheep.
Hjorte, Gazeller, Antiloper, Stenbukke, Disjonantiloper, Oryksantiloper og Vildgeder.
6 Those are animals that have split hoofs and that also (chew their cuds/regurgitate their food [from their stomachs] to chew it again).
Og alt det Kvæg, som har spaltede Klove, begge Klove helt spaltede, og tygger Drøv, det Kvæg må I spise.
7 But there are other animals that chew their cuds that you must not eat. Those are camels, rabbits, and rock badgers. They chew their cuds, but their hooves are not split. So they are not acceptable for you to eat.
Men følgende må I ikke spise af dem, der tygger Drøv, og af dem, der har Klovene helt spaltede: Kamelen, Haren og Klippegrævlingen, thi de tygger vel Drøv, men har ikke Klove; de skal være eder urene;
8 Do not eat pigs. They are unacceptable for you to eat; their hooves are split, but they do not chew cud. Do not eat the meat of those animals; do not even touch their dead bodies.
ej heller Svinet, thi det har vel Klove, men tygger ikke Drøv; det skal være eder urent. Deres Kød må I ikke spise, og ved deres Ådsler må I ikke røre.
9 You are permitted to eat any fish that has scales and fins.
Af alt, hvad der lever i Vandet, må spise følgende: Alt, hvad der har Finner og Skæl, må I spise.
10 But anything else [that lives in the water] that does not have scales and fins, you must not eat, because [if you eat them], you will become unacceptable [to Yahweh].
Men intet, der ikke har Finner og Skæl, må I spise; det skal være eder urent.
11 “You are permitted to eat the flesh of any bird that is acceptable [to Yahweh].
Alle rene Fugle må I spise.
12 But eagles, vultures, black vultures,
Men følgende Fugle må I ikke spise: Ørnen, Lammegribben, Havørnen,
13 buzzards, all kinds of kites,
Glenten, de forskellige Arter af Falke,
14 all kinds of crows,
alle de forskellige Arter af Ravne,
15 ostriches, seagulls,
Strudsen, Takmasfuglen, Mågen, de forskellige Arter af Høge,
16 owls, hawks, falcons,
Uglen, Hornuglen, Tinsjemetfuglen,
17 pelicans, vultures that eat dead animals, cormorants,
Pelikanen, Ådselgribben, Fiskepelikanen,
18 storks, herons, hoopoes, and bats, you must not eat.
Storken, de forskellige Arter af Hejrer, Hærfuglen og Flagermusen.
19 “All insects with wings [and which walk on the ground] are unacceptable [to Yahweh]; do not eat them.
Alt vinget Kryb skal være eder urent og må ikke spises.
20 But other insects with wings [and which hop along the ground] are acceptable to eat.
Men alle rene Fugle må I spise.
21 “Do not eat any animal that has died naturally, [because its blood has not been drained out]. You may allow foreigners who live among you to eat those things or you may sell them to other foreigners. But you belong to Yahweh our God; [and those who belong to him are not permitted to eat the meat of animals whose blood has not been drained out]. “You must not cook a young sheep or goat in its mother’s milk.”
I må ikke spise noget selvdødt Dyr. Du kan give det til den fremmede inden dine Porte, at han kan spise det, eller du kan sælge det til en Udlænding. Thi du er et Folk, der er helliget HERREN din Gud. Du må ikke koge et Kid i dets Moders Mælk.
22 “Once each year you must set apart (a tithe/10 percent) of all the crops that are produced/harvested in your fields.
Du skal give Tiende af al din Afgrøde, der vokser på Marken, År for År;
23 Take those things to the place that Yahweh our God will choose [for you to worship him]. There eat the tithes of your grain, your wine, your [olive] oil, and the meat of the firstborn male animals of your cattle and your sheep. Do this in order that you may learn to always revere Yahweh, [the one who has blessed you by giving you these things].
og for HERREN din Guds Åsyn, på det Sted, han udvælger til Bolig for sit Navn, skal du nyde Tienden af dit Korn, din Most og din Olie og de førstefødte af dit Hornkvæg og Småkvæg, for at du kan lære at frygte HERREN din Gud alle Dage.
24 If the place that Yahweh has chosen [for you to worship him] is very far from your home, with the result that you are not able to take there the tithes [of your crops] with which Yahweh has blessed you, do this:
Men når Vejen er dig for lang, så du ikke kan bringe det derhen, eftersom det Sted, HERREN din Gud udvælger for der at stedfæste sit Navn, ligger for langt borte fra dig, fordi HERREN din Gud velsigner dig,
25 Sell [IDM] the tithes of your crops, wrap the money carefully [in a cloth], and take it with you to the place of worship that Yahweh has chosen.
så skal du gøre det i Penge og pakke Pengene ind og tage dem med og drage til det Sted, HERREN din Gud udvælger,
26 There, [with that money], you may buy whatever you want to—beef or lamb or wine or fermented drinks. And there, in the presence of Yahweh, you and your families should eat [and drink] those things and be happy.
og du skal for Pengene købe alt, hvad dit Hjerte begærer, Hornkvæg og Småkvæg, Vin og stærk Drik og alt, hvad du har Lyst til, og nyde det der for HERREN din Guds Åsyn og være glad sammen med din Husstand.
27 But be sure to not neglect/forget [to help] the descendants of Levi who live in your towns, because they will not own any land.
Og Leviten inden dine Porte må du ikke glemme; thi han har ikke Arvelod og Del som du.
28 “At the end of every three years, bring a tithe of all your crops that have been produced/harvested in that year and store it in your towns.
Men hver Gang der er gået tre År, skal du tage al Tienden af din Afgrøde i det År og samle den inden dine Porte,
29 That food is for the descendants of Levi, because they do not have their own land, and for foreigners [who live among you], and for orphans and widows who live in your towns. They are permitted to come [to where the food is stored] and take what they need. Do that in order that Yahweh our God will bless you in everything that you do.”
så at Leviten, der jo ikke har Arvelod og Del som du, og den fremmede, den faderløse og Enken inden dine Porte kan komme og spise sig mæt deraf; det skal du gøre, for at HERREN din Gud må velsigne dig i al den Gerning, du tager dig for.
