Leviticus 1

1 The LORD called to Moses, and spoke to him from the Tent of Meeting, saying,

Og han kaldte ad Mose; og Herren talede til ham fra Forsamlingens Paulun og sagde:

2 “Speak to the children of Israel, and tell them, ‘When anyone of you offers an offering to the LORD, you shall offer your offering of the livestock, from the herd and from the flock.

Tal til Israels Børn, og du skal sige til dem: Naar nogen af eder vil ofre et Offer til Herren, da skulle I ofre eders Offer af Fæ, af stort Kvæg eller af smaat Kvæg.

3 “‘If his offering is a burnt offering from the herd, he shall offer a male without defect. He shall offer it at the door of the Tent of Meeting, that he may be accepted before the LORD.

Dersom hans Offer er Brændoffer af stort Kvæg, skal han ofre en Han, som er uden Lyde; for Forsamlingens Pauluns Dør skal han ofre den, for sig til en Behagelighed for Herrens Ansigt.

4 He shall lay his hand on the head of the burnt offering, and it shall be accepted for him to make atonement for him.

Og han skal lægge sin Haand paa Brændofrets Hoved, saa bliver det for ham behageligt til at gøre Forligelse for ham.

5 He shall kill the bull before the LORD. Aaron’s sons, the priests, shall present the blood and sprinkle the blood around on the altar that is at the door of the Tent of Meeting.

Og han skal slagte den unge Okse for Herrens Ansigt; og Præsterne, Arons Sønner, skulle bære Blodet frem og stænke Blodet omkring paa Alteret, som staar ved Døren til Forsamlingens Paulun.

6 He shall skin the burnt offering and cut it into pieces.

Og man skal flaa Brændofret og hugge det i sine Stykker.

7 The sons of Aaron the priest shall put fire on the altar, and lay wood in order on the fire;

Og Arons, Præstens, Sønner skulle gøre Ild paa Alteret, og de skulle lægge Ved til Rette paa Ilden.

8 and Aaron’s sons, the priests, shall lay the pieces, the head, and the fat in order on the wood that is on the fire which is on the altar;

Og Præsterne, Arons Sønner, skulle lægge Stykkerne til Rette, Hovedet og Fedtet, paa Veddet, som er paa Ilden paa Alteret.

9 but he shall wash its innards and its legs with water. The priest shall burn all of it on the altar, for a burnt offering, an offering made by fire, of a pleasant aroma to the LORD.

Men dets Indvolde og dets Skanker skal man to i Vand, og Præsten skal gøre et Røgoffer af det alt sammen paa Alteret; det er et Brændoffer, et Ildoffer, en sød Lugt for Herren.

10 “‘If his offering is from the flock, from the sheep or from the goats, for a burnt offering, he shall offer a male without defect.

Men dersom hans Offer er af smaat Kvæg, af Faar eller af Geder, til et Brændoffer, da skal han ofre en Han uden Lyde.

11 He shall kill it on the north side of the altar before the LORD. Aaron’s sons, the priests, shall sprinkle its blood around on the altar.

Og han skal slagte den ved Alterets Side mod Norden for Herrens Ansigt, og Præsterne, Arons Sønner, skulle stænke Blodet deraf paa Alteret rundt omkring.

12 He shall cut it into its pieces, with its head and its fat. The priest shall lay them in order on the wood that is on the fire which is on the altar,

Og han skal hugge den i sine Stykker og dertil tage dens Hoved og dens Fedt; og Præsten skal lægge det til Rette paa Veddet, som er paa Ilden paa Alteret.

13 but the innards and the legs he shall wash with water. The priest shall offer the whole, and burn it on the altar. It is a burnt offering, an offering made by fire, of a pleasant aroma to the LORD.

Men Indvoldene og Skankerne skal han to i Vand, og Præsten skal ofre det alt sammen og skal gøre et Røgoffer deraf paa Alteret; det er et Brændoffer, et Ildoffer, en sød Lugt for Herren.

14 “‘If his offering to the LORD is a burnt offering of birds, then he shall offer his offering from turtledoves or of young pigeons.

Men om hans Offer til Herren er et Brændoffer af Fugle, da skal han ofre sit Offer af Turtelduer eller Dueunger.

15 The priest shall bring it to the altar, and wring off its head, and burn it on the altar; and its blood shall be drained out on the side of the altar;

Og Præsten skal bære det til Alteret og vride Hovedet om derpaa og gøre et Røgoffer deraf paa Alteret, og Blodet deraf skal udkrystes mod Alterets Væg.

16 and he shall take away its crop and its feathers, and cast it beside the altar on the east part, in the place of the ashes.

Og han skal borttage dens Kro og dens Fjer og kaste dette ved Alteret mod Østen paa Askens Sted.

17 He shall tear it by its wings, but shall not divide it apart. The priest shall burn it on the altar, on the wood that is on the fire. It is a burnt offering, an offering made by fire, of a pleasant aroma to the LORD.

Og han skal flække den ved dens Vinger, men ikke skille den ad, og Præsten skal gøre et Røgoffer af den paa Alteret, paa Veddet, som er paa Ilden; det er et Brændoffer, et Ildoffer, en sød Lugt for Herren.
