1 HERREN sagde til Moses: "Drag nu bort herfra med Folket, som du førte ud af Ægypten, til det Land, jeg tilsvor Abraham, Isak og Jakob med de Ord: Dit Afkom vil jeg give det!
1 Then the Lord spoke to Moses, “Depart, go up from here, you and the people whom you have brought up from the land of Egypt, to the land of which I swore to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, saying, ‘To your descendants I will give it.’
3 til et Land, der flyder med Mælk og Honning. Men selv vil jeg ikke drage med i din Midte, thi du er et halsstarrigt Folk; drog jeg med, kunde jeg tilintetgøre dig undervejs!"
3 Go up to a land flowing with milk and honey; for I will not go up in your midst, because you are an obstinate people, and I might destroy you on the way.”
5 Da sagde HERREN til Moses: "Sig til Israeliterne; I er et halsstarrigt Folk! Vandrede jeg kun et eneste Øjeblik i din Midte, måtte jeg tilintetgøre dig. Tag du dine Smykker af, så skal jeg tænke over, hvad jeg vil gøre for dig!"
5 For the Lord had said to Moses, “Say to the sons of Israel, ‘You are an obstinate people; should I go up in your midst for one moment, I would destroy you. Now therefore, put off your ornaments from you, that I may know what I shall do with you.’”
7 Moses plejede at tage Teltet og slå det op udenfor Lejren i nogen Afstand derfra; han gav det Navnet "Åbenbaringsteltet".
7 Now Moses used to take the tent and pitch it outside the camp, a good distance from the camp, and he called it the tent of meeting. And everyone who sought the Lord would go out to the tent of meeting which was outside the camp.
8 Men hver Gang Moses gik ud til teltet, rejste alt Folket sig op og stillede sig alle ved Indgangen til deres Telte og så efter Moses, indtil han kom ind i Teltet.
8 And it came about, whenever Moses went out to the tent, that all the people would arise and stand, each at the entrance of his tent, and gaze after Moses until he entered the tent.
11 Så talede HERREN med Moses Ansigt til Ansigt, som når den ene Mand taler med den anden, og derpå vendte Moses tilbage til Lejren; men hans Medhjælper Josua, Nuns Søn, en ung Mand, veg ikke fra Teltet.
11 Thus the Lord used to speak to Moses face to face, just as a man speaks to his friend. When Moses returned to the camp, his servant Joshua, the son of Nun, a young man, would not depart from the tent.
12 Moses sagde til HERREN: "Se, du siger til mig: Før dette Folk frem! Men du har ikke ladet mig vide, hvem du vil sende med mig; og dog har du sagt: Jeg kender dig ved Navn, og du har fundet Nåde for mine Øjne!
12 Then Moses said to the Lord, “See, You say to me, ‘Bring up this people!’ But You Yourself have not let me know whom You will send with me. Moreover, You have said, ‘I have known you by name, and you have also found favor in My sight.’
13 Hvis jeg nu virkelig har fundet Nåde for dine Øjne, så lær mig dine Veje at kende, at jeg kan kende dig og finde Nåde for dine Øjne; tænk dog på, at dette Folk er dit Folk!"
13 Now therefore, I pray You, if I have found favor in Your sight, let me know Your ways that I may know You, so that I may find favor in Your sight. Consider too, that this nation is Your people.”
16 Hvorpå skal det dog kendes. at jeg har fundet Nåde for dine Øjne, jeg og dit Folk? Mon ikke på, at du vandrer med os, og der således vises os, mig og dit Folk, en Udmærkelse fremfor alle and1e Folkeslag på Jorden?"
16 For how then can it be known that I have found favor in Your sight, I and Your people? Is it not by Your going with us, so that we, I and Your people, may be distinguished from all the other people who are upon the face of the earth?”
19 Han svarede: "Jeg vil lade al min Rigdom drage forbi dig og udråbe HERRENs Navn foran dig, thi jeg viser Nåde, mod hvem jeg vil, og Barmhjertighed, mod hvem jeg vil!"
19 And He said, “I Myself will make all My goodness pass before you, and will proclaim the name of the Lord before you; and I will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and will show compassion on whom I will show compassion.”
