< Leviticus 20 >
1 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
Og Herren talede til Mose og sagde:
2 “Say to the people of Israel, 'Anyone among the people of Israel, or any foreigner who lives in Israel who gives any of his children to Molech, must certainly be put to death. The people in the land must stone him with stones.
Og du skal sige til Israels Børn: Hvo som helst af Israels Børn eller af de fremmede, som opholde sig i Israel, der hengiver nogen af sin Sæd til Molek, skal visselig dødes; Folket i Landet skulle stene ham med Stene.
3 I also will set my face against that man and will cut him off from among his people because he has given his child to Molech, so as to defile my holy place and profane my holy name.
Og jeg vil sætte mit Ansigt imod denne Mand, og jeg vil udrydde ham midt af sit Folk, fordi han hengav af sin Sæd til Molek, til at gøre min Helligdom uren og at vanhellige mit hellige Navn.
4 If the people of the land close their eyes to that man when he gives any of his children to Molech, if they do not put him to death,
Og dersom Folket i Landet ser igennem Fingre med det samme Menneske, naar han hengiver nogen af sin Sæd til Molek, saa at de ikke ihjelslaa ham,
5 then I myself will set my face against that man and his clan, and I will cut him off and everyone else who prostitutes himself in order to play the harlot with Molech.
da vil jeg sætte mit Ansigt imod det Menneske og imod hans Slægt; og ham og alle dem, som efterfølge hans Bolen med at bole med Molek, vil jeg udrydde midt af deres Folk.
6 The person who turns to those who talk with the dead, or to those who talk with spirits so as to prostitute themselves with them, I will set my face against that person; I will cut him off from among his people.
Og naar en Person vender sig til Spaakvinder eller til Tegnsudlæggere, til at bole med dem, da vil jeg sætte mit Ansigt imod denne Person, og jeg vil udrydde ham fra hans Folk.
7 Therefore consecrate yourselves and be holy, because I am Yahweh your God.
Derfor helliger eder og værer hellige; thi jeg er Herren eders Gud.
8 You must keep my commands and carry them out. I am Yahweh who sets you apart as holy.
Og holder mine Skikke, og gører dem; jeg er Herren, som gør eder hellige.
9 Everyone who curses his father or his mother must surely be put to death. He has cursed his father or his mother, so he is guilty and deserves to die.
Thi hvo som helst der bander sin Fader eller sin Moder, skal visselig dødes; han bandede sin Fader eller sin Moder, hans Blod være over ham.
10 The man who commits adultery with another man's wife, that is, anyone who commits adultery with his neighbor's wife—the adulterer and the adulteress must both certainly be put to death.
Og en Mand, som bedriver Hor med en Mands Hustru, den, som bedriver Hor med sin Næstes Hustru, den Horkarl og den Horekone skal visselig dødes.
11 If a man lies with his father's wife, he uncovers his father's nakedness. Both the son and his father's wife must certainly be put to death. Their blood is upon them.
Og en Mand, som ligger hos sin Faders Hustru, han har blottet sin Faders Blusel; de skulle begge visselig dødes, deres Blod skal være over dem.
12 If a man sleeps with his daughter-in-law, both of them must certainly be put to death. They have committed perversion. They are guilty and deserve to die.
Og naar en Mand ligger hos sin Søns Hustru, da skulle de begge visselig dødes; de have gjort en Skændighed, deres Blod skal være over dem.
13 If a man sleeps with another man, as with a woman, both of them have done something detestable. They must surely be put to death. They are guilty and deserve to die.
Og naar en Mand ligger hos en Mandsperson, som man ligger hos en Kvinde, da have de begge gjort en Vederstyggelighed; de skulle visselig dødes, deres Blod skal være over dem.
14 If a man marries a woman and also marries her mother, this is wickedness. They must be burned, both he and the women, so that there will be no wickedness among you.
Og naar en Mand tager en Kvinde og hendes Moder til Ægte, er det en Skændsel; de skulle brænde baade ham og dem med Ild, og der skal ikke være nogen Skændsel iblandt eder.
15 If a man sleeps with an animal, he must surely be put to death, and you must kill the animal.
Og en Mand, som ligger hos et Dyr, skal visselig dødes, og Dyret skulle I dræbe.
16 If a woman approaches any animal to sleep with it, you must kill the woman and the animal. They must certainly be put to death. They are guilty and deserve to die.
Og naar en Kvinde kommer nær til noget Dyr, at det har Fællesskab med hende, da skal du ihjelslaa baade Kvinden og Dyret; de skulle visselig dødes, deres Blod skal være over dem.
17 If a man sleeps with his sister, a daughter of his father or a daughter of his mother, and he uncovers her nakedness, and she sees his nakedness, it is a shameful thing. They must be cut off from the presence of their people, because he has slept with his sister. He must carry his guilt.
Og naar en Mand tager sin Søster, sin Faders Datter eller sin Moders Datter, til Ægte, og ser hendes Blusel, og hun ser hans Blusel, saa er det en gruelig Ting, og de skulle udryddes for deres Folks Børns Øjne; han blottede sin Søsters Blusel, han skal bære sin Misgerning.
18 If a man sleeps with a woman during her menstrual period and has slept with her, he has uncovered the flow of her blood, the source of her blood. Both the man and woman must be cut off from among their people.
Og naar en Mand ligger hos en Hustru, som er svag, og blotter hendes Blusel, blotter hendes Kilde, og hun blotter sin Blods Kilde, da skulle de begge udryddes af deres Folk.
19 You must not sleep with your mother's sister, or with your father's sister, because you would disgrace your close relative. You must carry your own guilt.
Og du skal ikke blotte din Moders Søsters og din Faders Søsters Blusel; thi en saadan har blottet sin næste Slægt, de skulle bære deres Misgerning.
20 If a man sleeps with his aunt, he has dishonored his uncle. They will bear responsibility for their sin, and they will die without children.
Og naar en Mand ligger hos sin Farbroders Hustru, han har blottet sin Farbroders Blusel; de skulle bære deres Synd, de skulle dø barnløse.
21 If a man marries his brother's wife while his brother is still living, that is disgraceful. He has dishonored his brother, and I will take away from their children any property they may have inherited from their parents.
Og dersom en Mand tager sin Broders Hustru til Ægte, det er en slem Gerning; han blottede sin Broders Blusel, de skulle være barnløse.
22 You must therefore keep all my statutes and all my decrees; you must obey them so that the land into which I am bringing you to live will not vomit you up.
Saa skulle I holde alle mine Skikke og alle mine Bud og gøre dem, at Landet, som jeg vil føre eder ind udi, til at bo derudi, ikke skal udspy eder.
23 You must not walk in the customs of the nations that I will drive out before you, for they have done all these things, and I detest them.
Og I skulle ikke vandre i det Folks Skikke, hvilket jeg skal udkaste for eder; thi alle disse Ting have de gjort, og jeg væmmedes ved dem.
24 I said to you, “You will inherit their land; I will give it to you to possess, a land flowing with milk and honey. I am Yahweh your God, who has separated you from the other peoples.
Men jeg siger eder: I skulle eje deres Land, og jeg vil give eder det til Eje, et Land, som flyder med Mælk og Honning. Jeg er Herren eders Gud, som har udskilt eder fra Folkene.
25 You must therefore distinguish between the clean animals and the unclean, and between the unclean birds and the clean. You must not defile yourselves with unclean animals or birds or with any creature that crawls along the ground, which I have separated as unclean from you.
Og I skulle gøre Skilsmisse imellem rene og urene Dyr og imellem urene og rene Fugle; og I skulle ikke gøre eders Sjæle vederstyggelige med Dyr og med Fugle og med alt det, som kryber paa Jorden, hvilket jeg har fraskilt for eder, at I skulle holde det urent.
26 You must be holy, for I, Yahweh, am holy, and I have separated you from the other peoples, for you belong to me.
Derfor skulle I være mig hellige, thi jeg Herren er hellig; og jeg har udskilt eder fra Folkene til at høre mig til.
27 A man or a woman who talks with the dead or who talks with spirits must certainly be put to death. The people must stone them with stones. They are guilty and deserve to die.'”
Og naar af Mand eller Kvinde nogen er en Spaamand eller Tegnsudlægger, skulle de visselig dødes; de skulle stene dem ihjel, deres Blod være over dem.
