Anden Mosebog 32 |
| 1992 | King James Version |
| 1 Da folket så, at Moses stadig ikke kom ned fra-bjerget, samledes de om Aron og sagde til ham: "Lav os en gud, som kan gå foran os, for vi ved ikke, hvad der er blevet af denne Moses, som førte os op fra Egypten." | 1 And when the people saw that Moses delayed to come down out of the mount, the people gathered themselves together unto Aaron, and said unto him, Up, make us gods, which shall go before us; for as for this Moses, the man that brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we wot not what is become of him. |
| 2 Aron svarede dem: "Tag de guldringe af, som jeres koner og jeres sønner og døtre har i ørerne, og bring dem til mig." | 2 And Aaron said unto them, Break off the golden earrings, which are in the ears of your wives, of your sons, and of your daughters, and bring them unto me. |
| 3 Så tog hele foLket de guldringe af, de havde i ørerne, og bragte dem til Aron; | 3 And all the people brake off the golden earrings which were in their ears, and brought them unto Aaron. |
| 4 han tog imod dem og støbte dem i en lerform til et billede af en tyrekalv. Da sagde de: "Her er din Gud, Israel, som førte dig op fra Egypten." | 4 And he received them at their hand, and fashioned it with a graving tool, after he had made it a molten calf: and they said, These be thy gods, O Israel, which brought thee up out of the land of Egypt. |
| 5 Da Aron så det, byggede han et alter foran den og lod udråbe: "I morgen er der fest for Herren." | 5 And when Aaron saw it, he built an altar before it; and Aaron made proclamation, and said, To morrow is a feast to the LORD. |
| 6 Næste morgen ofrede de brændofre og bragte måltidsofre, og folket satte sig ned og spiste og drak; og de rejste sig for at danse. | 6 And they rose up early on the morrow, and offered burnt offerings, and brought peace offerings; and the people sat down to eat and to drink, and rose up to play. |
| 7 Da sagde Herren til Moses: "Skynd dig ned! Dit folk, som du førte op fra Egypten, har handlet slet. | 7 And the LORD said unto Moses, Go, get thee down; for thy people, which thou broughtest out of the land of Egypt, have corrupted themselves: |
| 8 De er allerede veget fra den vej, jeg pålagde dem at følge. De har støbt sig et billede af en tyrekalv; de har tilbedt den og ofret til den, og de har sagt: Her er din Gud, Israel, som førte dig op fra Egypten." | 8 They have turned aside quickly out of the way which I commanded them: they have made them a molten calf, and have worshipped it, and have sacrificed thereunto, and said, These be thy gods, O Israel, which have brought thee up out of the land of Egypt. |
| 9 Og Herren sagde til Moses: "Nu har jeg set, at dette folk er et stivnakket folk; | 9 And the LORD said unto Moses, I have seen this people, and, behold, it is a stiffnecked people: |
| 10 lad mig bare tilintetgøre dem i min vrede! Men dig vil jeg gøre til et stort folk." | 10 Now therefore let me alone, that my wrath may wax hot against them, and that I may consume them: and I will make of thee a great nation. |
| 11 Moses ville formilde Herren sin Gud og sagde: "Herre, hvorfor skal din vrede flamme op mod dit folk, som du førte ud af Egypten med stor kraft og stærkhånd? | 11 And Moses besought the LORD his God, and said, LORD, why doth thy wrath wax hot against thy people, which thou hast brought forth out of the land of Egypt with great power, and with a mighty hand? |
| 12 Hvorfor skal egypterne kunne sige: 'Han havde ondt i sinde, da han førte dem ud; han ville dræbe dem i-bjergene og udrydde dem fra jordens overflade.' Vend dog om fra din glødende vrede, og fortryd den ulykke, du ville bringe over dit folk! | 12 Wherefore should the Egyptians speak, and say, For mischief did he bring them out, to slay them in the mountains, and to consume them from the face of the earth? Turn from thy fierce wrath, and repent of this evil against thy people. |
| 13 Husk på dine tjenere Abraham, Isak og Israel, som du gav det løfte, da du svor ved dig selv: Jeg vil gøre jeres efterkommere så talrige som himlens stjerner, og hele dette land, jeg har talt om, vil jeg give jeres efterkommere til evig ejendom." | 13 Remember Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, thy servants, to whom thou swarest by thine own self, and saidst unto them, I will multiply your seed as the stars of heaven, and all this land that I have spoken of will I give unto your seed, and they shall inherit it for ever. |
| 14 Da fortrød Herren den ulykke, han havde truet med at bringe over sit folk. | 14 And the LORD repented of the evil which he thought to do unto his people. |
| 15 Moses begav sig så ned af-bjerget med Vidnesbyrdets to tavler i hænderne; der var skrevet på begge sider af tavlerne, både forpå og bagpå. | 15 And Moses turned, and went down from the mount, and the two tables of the testimony were in his hand: the tables were written on both their sides; on the one side and on the other were they written. |
| 16 Tavlerne var Guds eget værk, og skriften var Guds egen skrift, mejslet i tavlerne. | 16 And the tables were the work of God, and the writing was the writing of God, graven upon the tables. |
| 17 Da Josva hørte larmen fra folket, sagde han til Moses: "Der lyder krigslarm i lejren." | 17 And when Joshua heard the noise of the people as they shouted, he said unto Moses, There is a noise of war in the camp. |
| 18 Men han svarede: "Det er ikke sang om sejr, der lyder, det er ikke sang om nederlag, der lyder, det er larmende sang, jeg hører." | 18 And he said, It is not the voice of them that shout for mastery, neither is it the voice of them that cry for being overcome: but the noise of them that sing do I hear. |
| 19 Da Moses kom nærmere til lejren og så tyrekalven og dem, der dansede, flammede hans vrede op, og han slyngede tavlerne til jorden ved-bjergets fod og knuste dem. | 19 And it came to pass, as soon as he came nigh unto the camp, that he saw the calf, and the dancing: and Moses' anger waxed hot, and he cast the tables out of his hands, and brake them beneath the mount. |
| 20 Derpå tog han kalven, som de havde lavet, og brændte en; han knuste den til støv og spredte det ud over vandet, og det gav han israelitterne at drikke. | 20 And he took the calf which they had made, and burnt it in the fire, and ground it to powder, and strowed it upon the water, and made the children of Israel drink of it. |
| 21 Moses sagde til Aron: "Hvad har folket her gjort dig, siden du har bragt så stor synd over det?" | 21 And Moses said unto Aaron, What did this people unto thee, that thou hast brought so great a sin upon them? |
| 22 Aron svarede: "Du må ikke være vred, herre, du ved selv, hvor slet det står til med dette folk. | 22 And Aaron said, Let not the anger of my lord wax hot: thou knowest the people, that they are set on mischief. |
| 23 De sagde til mig: Lav os en gud, som kan gå foran os, for vi ved ikke, hvad der er blevet af denne Moses, som førte os op fra Egypten. | 23 For they said unto me, Make us gods, which shall go before us: for as for this Moses, the man that brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we wot not what is become of him. |
| 24 Da sagde jeg til dem: De, der har guldsmykker, skal tage dem af. De gav mig dem, jeg kastede dem ilden, og ud kom denne tyrekalv." | 24 And I said unto them, Whosoever hath any gold, let them break it off. So they gave it me: then I cast it into the fire, and there came out this calf. |
| 25 Da Moses så, hvor løssluppent folket var, fordi Aron havde sluppet tøjlerne, til skadefryd for dets fjender, | 25 And when Moses saw that the people were naked; (for Aaron had made them naked unto their shame among their enemies:) |
| 26 stillede han sig i lejrporten og sagde: "Kom over til mig, I, der er på Herrens side!" Og alle levitterne samlede sig hos ham. | 26 Then Moses stood in the gate of the camp, and said, Who is on the LORD'S side? let him come unto me. And all the sons of Levi gathered themselves together unto him. |
| 27 Han sagde til dem: "Dette siger Herren, Israels Gud: Spænd hver især jeres sværd om lænden, og gå lejren rundt fra den ene port til den anden, og slå både broder, ven og nabo ihjel." | 27 And he said unto them, Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, Put every man his sword by his side, and go in and out from gate to gate throughout the camp, and slay every man his brother, and every man his companion, and every man his neighbour. |
| 28 Levitterne gjorde, som Moses sagde, og der faldt den dag hen ved tre tusind mand af folket. | 28 And the children of Levi did according to the word of Moses: and there fell of the people that day about three thousand men. |
| 29 Da sagde Moses: "Gå i dag i Herrens tjeneste, for I er endog gået imod jeres egne sønner og brødre. Han vil i dag lade velsignelse komme over jer." | 29 For Moses had said, Consecrate yourselves to day to the LORD, even every man upon his son, and upon his brother; that he may bestow upon you a blessing this day. |
| 30 Dagen efter sagde Moses til folket: "I har begået en stor synd. Nu vil jeg så gå op til Herren; måske kan jeg skaffe soning for jeres synd." | 30 And it came to pass on the morrow, that Moses said unto the people, Ye have sinned a great sin: and now I will go up unto the LORD; peradventure I shall make an atonement for your sin. |
| 31 Så vendte Moses tilbage til Herren og sagde: "Ak, dette folk har begået en stor synd; de har lavet sig en gud af guld. | 31 And Moses returned unto the LORD, and said, Oh, this people have sinned a great sin, and have made them gods of gold. |
| 32 Gid du dog vil tilgive dem deres synd! Men hvis ikke, så slet mig af den bog, du fører." | 32 Yet now, if thou wilt forgive their sin--; and if not, blot me, I pray thee, out of thy book which thou hast written. |
| 33 Herren svarede Moses: "Den, der har syndet mod mig, vil jeg slette af min bog. | 33 And the LORD said unto Moses, Whosoever hath sinned against me, him will I blot out of my book. |
| 34 Gå nu, og før folket til det sted, jeg har sagt dig; se, min engel skal gå foran dig! Men der kommer en dag, da jeg vil straffe dem for deres synd." | 34 Therefore now go, lead the people unto the place of which I have spoken unto thee: behold, mine Angel shall go before thee: nevertheless in the day when I visit I will visit their sin upon them. |
| 35 Og Herren slog folket med plager, fordi de havde lavet kalven, den Aron havde lavet. | 35 And the LORD plagued the people, because they made the calf, which Aaron made. |
