4 Mojzes 8
1 Gospod je spregovoril Mojzesu, rekoč:
And Yahweh spake unto Moses saying:
2 »Govori Aronu in mu reci: ›Ko prižigaš svetilke, bo sedem svetilk dajalo svetlobo nasproti svečniku.‹«
Speak unto Aaron, and thou shalt say unto him, —When thou lightest up the lamps, over against the front of the lampstand, shall the seven lamps give light.
3 Aron je storil tako. Prižgal je svetilke nasproti svečniku, kakor je Gospod zapovedal Mojzesu.
And Aaron did so, over against the front of the lampstand, lighted he up the lamps thereof, —As Yahweh commanded Moses,
4 To delo svečnika je bilo iz kovanega zlata, njegovo telo, do njegovih cvetov, je bilo kovano delo, glede na vzorec, ki ga je Gospod pokazal Mojzesu, tako je naredil svečnik.
Now, this, was the work of the lampstand—beaten work of gold both in the shaft thereof and in the flowers thereof, was it beaten work, according to the appearance which Yahweh caused to appear unto Moses, so, made he the lampstand.
5 Gospod je spregovoril Mojzesu, rekoč:
And Yahweh spake unto Moses, saying:
6 »Vzemi Lévijevce izmed Izraelovih otrok in jih očisti.
Take the Levites, out of the midst of the sons of Israel, —and thou shalt purify them.
7 Tako jim boš storil, da jih očistiš: nanje poškropi vodo očiščevanja in naj obrijejo vse svoje meso in naj si operejo oblačila in se tako očistijo.
And, thus, shalt thou do unto them, to purify them, sprinkle upon them sin-cleansing water, —then shall they, cause a razor to pass over all their flesh, and shall wash their clothes and so make themselves pure.
8 Potem naj vzamejo mladega bikca z njegovo jedilno daritvijo, torej fino moko, umešano z oljem in še enega mladega bikca boš vzel za daritev za greh.
Then shall they take a choice young bullock, with the meal-offering thereof even fine meal overflowed with oil, —and a second choice young bullock, shalt thou take. as a sin-bearer.
9 Lévijevce boš privedel pred šotorsko svetišče skupnosti in skupaj boš zbral celoten zbor Izraelovih otrok.
Then shalt thou bring the Levites near, before the tent of meeting, —and shalt call together all the assembly of the sons of Israel;
10 Lévijevce boš privedel pred Gospoda in Izraelovi otroci bodo svoje roke položili na Lévijevce.
and shalt bring the Levites near before Yahweh, —and the sons of Israel shall lean their hands upon the Levites;
11 Aron bo daroval Lévijevce pred Gospodom za daritev Izraelovih otrok, da bodo lahko opravljali Gospodovo službo.
and Aaron shall offer the Levites as a wave-offering before Yahweh, from among the sons of Israel, —so shall they be for performing the laborious work of Yahweh.
12 Lévijevci bodo svoje roke položili na glave bikcev in enega boš daroval za daritev za greh, drugega pa za žgalno daritev Gospodu, da opraviš spravo za Lévijevce.
And, the Levites, shall lean their hands upon the head of the bullocks; then make thou of the one a sin-bearer and of the other an ascending-sacrifice unto Yahweh, to put a propitiatory-covering over the Levites.
13 Lévijevce boš postavil pred Arona in pred njegove sinove in jih daroval za daritev Gospodu.
Thus shalt thou cause the Levites to stand before Aaron and before his sons, —thus shalt thou offer them as a wave-offering unto Yahweh;
14 Tako boš Lévijevce oddvojil izmed Izraelovih otrok in Lévijevci bodo moji.
thus shalt thou separate the Levites out of the midst of the sons of Israel, —thus shall the Levites become mine.
15 Potem bodo Lévijevci vstopili, da opravljajo službo šotorskega svetišča skupnosti in ti jih boš očistil in jih daroval kot dar.
And after that, shall the Levites enter to do the labour of the tent of meeting, —so shalt thou purify them, and offer them as a wave-offering,
16 Kajti oni so v celoti dani meni izmed Izraelovih otrok namesto tistega, ki odpre vsako maternico, celo namesto prvorojenca izmed vseh Izraelovih otrok sem jih vzel k sebi.
For, given, given, they are unto me, out of the midst of the sons of Israel, —instead of every firstborn that a mother beareth from among the sons of Israel, have I taken them unto me.
17 Kajti vsi prvorojenci izmed Izraelovih otrok so moji, tako človek in žival. Na dan, ko sem udaril vsakega prvorojenca v egiptovski deželi, sem jih posvetil zase.
For mine, is every firstborn among the sons of Israel, among men and among beasts, —on the day when I smote every firstborn in the land of Egypt, did I hallow them unto me.
18 Lévijevce sem vzel za vse prvorojence izmed Izraelovih otrok.
Therefore have I taken the Levites, —instead of every firstborn among the sons of Israel;
19 Izmed Izraelovih otrok sem dal Lévijevce kakor darilo Aronu in njegovim otrokom, da opravljajo službo Izraelovih otrok v šotorskem svetišču skupnosti in da opravijo spravo za Izraelove otroke, da tam ne bo nadloge med Izraelovimi otroki, ko se Izraelovi otroci približajo svetišču.«
therefore have I given the Levites as a gift unto Aaron and unto his sons, out of the midst of the sons of Israel, to do the laborious work of the sons of Israel in the tent of meeting, and to put a propitiatory-covering over the sons of Israel, —so shall there be among the sons of Israel, no plague, by the coming nigh of the sons of Israel unto the sanctuary.
20 Mojzes, Aron in vsa skupnost Izraelovih otrok so Lévijevcem storili glede na vse, kar je Gospod zapovedal Mojzesu glede Lévijevcev, tako so jim Izraelovi otroci storili.
And Moses and Aaron and all the assembly of the sons of Israel did thus unto the Levites, —according to all that Yahweh commanded Moses as touching the Levites, so, did the sons of Israel unto them.
21 Lévijevci so bili očiščeni in oprali so svoja oblačila in Aron jih je daroval kakor daritev pred Gospodom in Aron je zanje opravil spravo, da jih očisti.
And the Levites accepted the cleansing from sin and washed their clothes, and Aaron offered them as a wave-offering before Yahweh, —and Aaron put a propitiatory-covering over them to make them pure.
22 Potem so Lévijevci vstopili, da opravljajo svojo službo v šotorskem svetišču skupnosti pred Aronom in pred njegovimi sinovi. Kakor je Gospod zapovedal Mojzesu glede Lévijevcev, tako so jim storili.
And after that, went the Levites in to do their laborious work in the tent of meeting, before Aaron and before his sons, —as Yahweh commanded Moses concerning the Levites, so, did they unto them.
23 Gospod je spregovoril Mojzesu, rekoč:
And Yahweh spake unto Moses saying;
24 »To je to, kar pripada Lévijevcem: od petindvajset let stari in starejši bodo vstopili, da čakajo na službo šotorskega svetišča skupnosti,
This is what concerneth the Levites, —from twenty-five years old and upwards, shall they enter to take rank in the host, for doing the laborious work of the tent of meeting;
25 in od starosti petdesetih let bodo prenehali čakati na njegovo služenje in ne bodo več služili,
but from the age of fifty years, shall they retire from taking rank in the labour, and shall do laborious work no more;
26 temveč bodo služili s svojimi brati v šotorskem svetišču skupnosti, da pazijo na zadolžitev in ne bodo opravljali služenja. Tako boš storil Lévijevcem glede njihove zadolžitve.«
yet shall they wait upon their brethren in the tent of meeting, by keeping charge, but laborious work, shall they not perform, —thus, shalt thou do unto the Levites, as touching their charges.
