4 Mosebog 19
1 HERREN talede fremdeles til Moses og Aron og sagde:
The LORD spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
2 Dette er det Lovbud, HERREN har kundgjort: Sig til Israeliterne, at de skal skaffe dig en rød, lydefri Kvie, der er uden Fejl og ikke har baaret Aag.
"This is the statute of the law which the LORD has commanded: Speak to the children of Israel, that they bring you a red heifer without spot, in which is no blemish, and which was never yoked.
3 Den skal I overgive til Præsten Eleazar, og man skal føre den uden for Lejren og slagte den for hans Aasyn.
And you shall give it to Eleazar the priest, and they shall bring it outside of the camp, and they shall slaughter it in his presence.
4 Saa skal Præsten Eleazar tage noget af dens Blod paa sin Finger og stænke det syv Gange i Retning af Aabenbaringsteltets Forside.
And Eleazar the priest shall take of its blood with his finger, and sprinkle this blood toward the front of the Tent of Meeting seven times.
5 Derpaa skal Kvien brændes i hans Paasyn; dens Hud, Kød og Blod tillige med Skarnet skal opbrændes.
Then he shall burn the heifer in his sight; its skin, and its flesh, and its blood, with its dung, he shall burn.
6 Derefter skal Præsten tage Cedertræ, Ysop og karmoisinrødt Uld og kaste det paa Baalet, hvor Kvien brænder.
And the priest shall take cedar wood, and hyssop, and scarlet, and cast it into the midst of the burning of the heifer.
7 Saa skal Præsten tvætte sine Klæder og bade sit Legeme i Vand og derefter vende tilbage til Lejren. Men Præsten skal være uren til Aften.
Then the priest shall wash his clothes, and he shall bathe his flesh in water, and afterward he shall come into the camp, and the priest shall be unclean until the evening.
8 Ligeledes skal den Mand, der brænder Kvien, tvætte sine Klæder med Vand og bade sit Legeme i Vand og være uren til Aften.
He who burns her shall wash his clothes in water, and bathe his flesh in water, and shall be unclean until the evening.
9 Og en Mand, der er ren, skal opsamle Kviens Aske og lægge den hen paa et rent Sted uden for Lejren, hvor den skal opbevares for Israeliternes Menighed for at bruges til Renselsesvand. Det er et Syndoffer.
"A man who is clean shall gather up the ashes of the heifer, and lay them up outside of the camp in a clean place; and it shall be kept for the congregation of the children of Israel for a water for impurity: it is a sin offering.
10 Og den, der opsamler Kviens Aske, skal tvætte sine Klæder og være uren til Aften. For Israeliterne og den fremmede, der bor iblandt dem, skal dette være en evig gyldig Anordning:
He who gathers the ashes of the heifer shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening: and it shall be to the children of Israel, and to the stranger who lives as a foreigner among them, for a statute forever.
11 Den, der rører ved en død, ved noget som helst Lig, skal være uren i syv Dage.
"He who touches the dead body of any man shall be unclean seven days:
12 Han skal lade sig rense for Synd med Asken paa den tredje og syvende Dag, saa bliver han ren; men renser han sig ikke paa den tredje og syvende Dag, bliver han ikke ren.
the same shall purify himself with water on the third day, and on the seventh day he shall be clean: but if he doesn't purify himself the third day, then the seventh day he shall not be clean.
13 Enhver, der rører ved en død, et Lig, og ikke lader sig rense for Synd, besmitter HERRENS Bolig, og det Menneske skal udryddes af Israel, fordi der ikke er stænket Renselsesvand paa ham; han er uren, hans Urenhed klæber endnu ved ham.
Whoever touches a dead person, the body of a man who has died, and doesn't purify himself, defiles the tabernacle of the LORD; and that soul shall be cut off from Israel: because the water for impurity was not sprinkled on him, he shall be unclean; his uncleanness is yet on him.
14 Saaledes er Loven: Naar et Menneske dør i et Telt, bliver enhver, der træder ind i Teltet, og enhver, der er i Teltet, uren i syv Dage;
"This is the law when a man dies in a tent: everyone who comes into the tent, and everyone who is in the tent, shall be unclean seven days.
15 og ethvert aabent Kar, et, der ikke er bundet noget over, bliver urent.
Every open vessel, which has no covering bound on it, is unclean.
16 Ligeledes bliver enhver, der paa aaben Mark rører ved en, der er dræbt med Sværd, eller ved en, der er død, eller ved Menneskeknogler eller en Grav, uren i syv Dage.
"Whoever in the open field touches one who is slain with a sword, or a dead body, or a bone of a man, or a grave, shall be unclean seven days.
17 For saadanne urene skal man da tage noget af Asken af det brændte Syndoffer og hælde rindende Vand derover i en Skaal.
"For the unclean they shall take of the ashes of the burning of the sin offering; and running water shall be put thereto in a vessel:
18 Derpaa skal en Mand, der er ren, tage en Ysopstængel, dyppe den i Vandet og stænke det paa Teltet og paa alle de Ting og Mennesker, der har været deri, og paa den, der har rørt ved Menneskeknoglerne, den ihjelslagne, den døde eller Graven.
and a clean person shall take hyssop, and dip it in the water, and sprinkle it on the tent, and on all the vessels, and on the persons who were there, and on him who touched the bone, or the slain, or the dead, or the grave:
19 Saaledes skal den rene bestænke den urene paa den tredje og syvende Dag og borttage hans Synd paa den syvende Dag. Derefter skal han tvætte sine Klæder og bade sig i Vand, saa er han ren, naar det bliver Aften.
and the clean person shall sprinkle on the unclean on the third day, and on the seventh day: and on the seventh day he shall purify him; and he shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and shall be clean at evening.
20 Men den, som bliver uren og ikke lader sig rense for Synd, han skal udryddes af Forsamlingen; thi han har besmittet HERRENS Helligdom, der er ikke stænket Renselsesvand paa ham, han er uren.
But the man who shall be unclean, and shall not purify himself, that soul shall be cut off from the midst of the assembly, because he has defiled the sanctuary of the LORD: the water for impurity has not been sprinkled on him; he is unclean.
21 Det skal være eder en evig gyldig Anordning. Den, der stænker Renselsesvandet, skal tvætte sine Klæder, og den, der rører ved Renselsesvandet, skal være uren til Aften.
It shall be a perpetual statute to them: and he who sprinkles the water for impurity shall wash his clothes, and he who touches the water for impurity shall be unclean until evening.
22 Alt, hvad den urene rører ved skal være urent, og enhver, der rører ved ham, skal være uren til Aften.
"Whatever the unclean person touches shall be unclean; and the soul that touches it shall be unclean until evening."
