Deuteronomy 27
1 Then Moses and the responsible men of Israel gave the people these orders: Keep all the orders which I have given you this day;
Derpå bød Moses og IsraeLs Ældste Folket: "Hold alle de Bud, jeg i Dag pålægger eder!
2 And on the day when you go over Jordan into the land which the Lord your God is giving you, put up great stones, coating them with building-paste,
Og den Dag I går over Jordan ind i det Land, HERREN din Gud vil give dig, skal du oprejse dig nogle store Sten og kalke dem over,
3 And writing on them all the words of this law, after you have gone over; so that you may take the heritage which the Lord your God is giving you, a land flowing with milk and honey, as the Lord, the God of your fathers, has said.
og på dem skal du skrive alle denne Lovs Ord, så snart du er kommet over, for at du kan drage ind i det Land, HERREN din Gud vil give dig, et Land, der flyder med Mælk og Honning, som HERREN, dine Fædres Gud, lovede dig.
4 And when you have gone over Jordan, you are to put up these stones, as I have said to you today, in Mount Ebal, and have them coated with building-paste.
Og når I er kommet over Jordan, skal I oprejse disse Sten, om hvilke jeg i Dag giver eder Pålæg, på Ebals Bjerg og kalke dem over.
5 There you are to make an altar to the Lord your God, of stones on which no iron instrument has been used.
Og der skal du bygge HERREN din Gud et Alter, et Alter af Sten, som du ikke har svunget Jern over;
6 You are to make the altar of the Lord your God of uncut stones; offering on it burned offerings to the Lord your God:
af utilhugne Sten skal du bygge HERREN din Guds Alter, og på det skal du ofre Brændofre til HERREN din Gud,
7 And you are to make your peace-offerings, feasting there with joy before the Lord your God.
og du skal ofre Takofre og holde Måltid der og være glad for HERREN din Guds Åsyn.
8 And put on the stones all the words of this law, writing them very clearly.
Og på Stenene skal du skrive alle denne Lovs Ord tydeligt og klart!"
9 Then Moses and the priests, the Levites, said to all Israel, Be quiet and give ear, O Israel; today you have become the people of the Lord your God.
Derpå talte Moses og Levitpræsterne til hele Israel og sagde: "Hør efter i Stilhed, Israel! I Dag er du blevet HERREN din Guds Folk!
10 For this cause you are to give ear to the voice of the Lord your God, and do his orders and his laws which I give you this day.
Så lyt da til HERREN din Guds Røst og hold hans Bud og Anordninger, som jeg i Dag pålægger dig!"
11 That same day Moses said to the people,
Og Moses bød på denne Da: Folket:
12 These are to take their places on Mount Gerizim for blessing the people when you have gone over Jordan: Simeon and Levi and Judah and Issachar and Joseph and Benjamin;
"Når I er kommet over Jordan, skal den ene Del af eder tage Plads på Garizims Bjerg for at velsigne Folket, nemlig Simeon, Levi, Juda, Issakar, Josef og Benjamin;
13 And these are to be on Mount Ebal for the curse: Reuben, Gad, and Asher, and Zebulun, Dan, and Naphtali.
og den anden skal tage Plads på Ebals Bjerg for at forbande, nemlig Ruben, Gad, Aser, Zebulon, Dan og Naftali."
14 Then the Levites are to say in a loud voice to all the men of Israel,
Og Leviterne skal tage til Orde og med høj Røst sige til alle Israels Mænd:
15 Cursed is the man who makes any image of wood or stone or metal, disgusting to the Lord, the work of man's hands, and puts it up in secret. And let all the people say, So be it.
"Forbandet være den, som laver et udskåret eller støbt Billede, HERREN en Vederstyggelighed, Værk af en Håndværkers Hænder, og stiller det op i Løndom!" Og hele Folket skal svare: "Amen!"
16 Cursed is he who does not give honour to his father or mother. And let all the people say, So be it.

19 Cursed is he who gives a wrong decision in the cause of a man from a strange land, or of one without a father, or of a widow. And let all the people say, So be it.
"Forbandet enhver, som bøjer Retten for den fremmede, den faderløse og Enken!" Og hele Folket skal svare: "Amen!"
20 Cursed is he who has sex relations with his father's wife, for he has put shame on his father. And let all the people say, So be it.

21 Cursed is he who has sex relations with any sort of beast. And let all the people say, So be it.
"Forbandet enhver, som har Omgang med noget Slags Kvæg!" Og hele Folket skal svare: "Amen!"

"Forbandet enhver, som har Samleje med sin Søster, sin Faders eller Moders Datter!" Og hele Folket skal svare: "Amen!"
23 Cursed is he who has sex relations with his mother-in-law. And let all the people say, So be it.
"Forbandet enhver, som har Samleje med sin Hustrus Moder!" Og hele Folket skal svare: "Amen!"
24 Cursed is he who takes his neighbour's life secretly. And let all the people say, So be it.
"Forbandet enhver, som snigmyrder sin Næste!" Og hele Folket skal svare: "Amen!"
25 Cursed is he who for a reward puts to death one who has done no wrong. And let all the people say, So be it.
"Forbandet enhver, som lader sig købe til at myrde en uskyldig!" Og hele Folket skal svare: "Amen!"
26 Cursed is he who does not take this law to heart to do it. And let all the people say, So be it.
"Forbandet enhver, som ikke holder denne Lovs Ord i Hævd og handler efter dem!" Og hele Folket skal svare: "Amen!"
