4 Mosebok 9
1 Og Herren talte til Moses i Sinai ørken i det annet år efterat de var gått ut av Egyptens land, i den første måned, og sa:
And the LORD spoke to Moses in the wilderness of Sinai, in the first month of the second year after they were come out of the land of Egypt, saying,
2 Israels barn skal holde påske på den fastsatte tid.
Let the children of Israel also keep the passover at his appointed season.
3 Den fjortende dag i denne måned, mellem de to aftenstunder, skal I holde påske på den fastsatte tid. Efter alle lover og forskrifter som gjelder om den, skal I holde den.
In the fourteenth day of this month, at even, you shall keep it in his appointed season: according to all the rites of it, and according to all the ceremonies thereof, shall you keep it.
4 Da talte Moses til Israels barn og sa at de skulde holde påske.
And Moses spoke to the children of Israel, that they should keep the passover.
5 Og de holdt påske i den første måned, på den fjortende dag i måneden, mellem de to aftenstunder, i Sinai ørken; aldeles som Herren hadde befalt Moses, således gjorde Israels barn.
And they kept the passover on the fourteenth day of the first month at even in the wilderness of Sinai: according to all that the LORD commanded Moses, so did the children of Israel.
6 Men det var nogen menn som var blitt urene av et lik, så de ikke kunde holde påske den dag; disse menn trådte samme dag frem for Moses og Aron
And there were certain men, who were defiled by the dead body of a man, that they could not keep the passover on that day: and they came before Moses and before Aaron on that day:
7 og sa til ham: Vi er blitt urene av et lik; hvorfor skal det være oss nektet å bære frem Herrens offer på den fastsatte tid sammen med de andre Israels barn?
And those men said to him, We are defiled by the dead body of a man: why are we kept back, that we may not offer an offering of the LORD in his appointed season among the children of Israel?
8 Da sa Moses til dem: Vent, så jeg kan få høre hvad Herren befaler om eder.
And Moses said to them, Stand still, and I will hear what the LORD will command concerning you.
9 Og Herren talte til Moses og sa:
And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
10 Tal til Israels barn og si: Om nogen blandt eder eller blandt eders efterkommere er blitt uren av et lik eller er på langreise, skal han allikevel holde påske for Herren;
Speak to the children of Israel, saying, If any man of you or of your posterity shall be unclean by reason of a dead body, or be in a journey afar off, yet he shall keep the passover to the LORD.
11 i den annen måned på den fjortende dag, mellem de to aftenstunder, skal de holde den; med usyret brød og bitre urter skal de ete påskelammet.
The fourteenth day of the second month at even they shall keep it, and eat it with unleavened bread and bitter herbs.
12 De skal ikke levne noget av det til om morgenen og ikke bryte noget ben på det; de skal i ett og alt holde påsken efter loven som gjelder om den.
They shall leave none of it to the morning, nor break any bone of it: according to all the ordinances of the passover they shall keep it.
13 Men den som er ren og ikke er på reise og enda lar være å holde påske, han skal utryddes av sitt folk, fordi han ikke bar frem Herrens offer på den fastsatte tid; den mann skal lide for sin synd.
But the man that is clean, and is not in a journey, and declines to keep the passover, even the same soul shall be cut off from among his people: because he brought not the offering of the LORD in his appointed season, that man shall bear his sin.
14 Og når en fremmed opholder sig hos eder og vil holde påske for Herren, så skal han holde den efter loven om påsken og efter forskriftene om den; der skal gjelde én lov for eder, både for den fremmede og for den innfødte i landet.
And if a stranger shall sojourn among you, and will keep the passover to the LORD; according to the ordinance of the passover, and according to the manner thereof, so shall he do: you shall have one ordinance, both for the stranger, and for him that was born in the land.
15 Den dag tabernaklet blev reist, dekket skyen tabernaklet, vidnesbyrdets telt; og om aftenen var der som et ildskjær over tabernaklet like til om morgenen.
And on the day that the tabernacle was reared up the cloud covered the tabernacle, namely, the tent of the testimony: and at even there was on the tabernacle as it were the appearance of fire, until the morning.
16 Således var det alltid: Skyen dekket det, og om natten var der som et ildskjær.
So it was always: the cloud covered it by day, and the appearance of fire by night.
17 Og hver gang skyen løftet sig fra teltet, brøt Israels barn straks op; og på det sted hvor skyen lot sig ned, der leiret Israels barn sig.
And when the cloud was taken up from the tabernacle, then after that the children of Israel journeyed: and in the place where the cloud stayed, there the children of Israel pitched their tents.
18 Efter Herrens befaling brøt Israels barn op, og efter Herrens befaling leiret de sig; alle de dager skyen hvilte over tabernaklet, lå de i leir.
At the commandment of the LORD the children of Israel journeyed, and at the commandment of the LORD they pitched: as long as the cloud stayed on the tabernacle they rested in their tents.
19 Når skyen blev over tabernaklet i mange dager, da rettet Israels barn sig efter det som Herren hadde sagt, og brøt ikke op.
And when the cloud tarried long on the tabernacle many days, then the children of Israel kept the charge of the LORD, and journeyed not.
20 Stundom hendte det at skyen var bare nogen få dager over tabernaklet; efter Herrens befaling lå de da i leir, og efter Herrens befaling brøt de op.
And so it was, when the cloud was a few days on the tabernacle; according to the commandment of the LORD they stayed in their tents, and according to the commandment of the LORD they journeyed.
21 Men stundom hendte det at skyen var der bare fra aften til morgen; når da skyen løftet sig om morgenen, brøt de op. Eller den var der en dag og en natt; når da skyen løftet sig, brøt de op.
And so it was, when the cloud stayed from even to the morning, and that the cloud was taken up in the morning, then they journeyed: whether it was by day or by night that the cloud was taken up, they journeyed.
22 Eller den var der et par dager eller en måned eller enda lenger; når skyen drygde så lenge og blev liggende over tabernaklet, da lå Israels barn i leir og brøt ikke op, men når den løftet sig, brøt de op.
Or whether it were two days, or a month, or a year, that the cloud tarried on the tabernacle, remaining thereon, the children of Israel stayed in their tents, and journeyed not: but when it was taken up, they journeyed.
23 Efter Herrens befaling leiret de sig, og efter Herrens befaling brøt de op; de rettet sig efter det som Herren hadde sagt - efter det som Herren hadde befalt ved Moses.
At the commandment of the LORD they rested in the tents, and at the commandment of the LORD they journeyed: they kept the charge of the LORD, at the commandment of the LORD by the hand of Moses.
