2.Mose 6 | Bibelen på hverdagsdansk

1 „Nu skal du få at se, hvad jeg vil gøre ved Farao,” sagde Herren til Moses. „Han skal få min magt at føle, indtil han lader mit folk rejse. Han vil blive så opsat på at komme af med dem, at han nærmest vil jage dem ud!”

2 „Jeg er Herren!” fortsatte han.

3 „Jeg åbenbarede mig for Abraham, Isak og Jakob som den almægtige Gud, men de har ikke til fulde erfaret, hvad mit navn, Jahve. egentlig står for.

4 Jeg indgik en pagt med dem, hvor jeg lovede at give dem og deres efterkommere Kana’ans land, det land, hvor de boede som fremmede.

5 Jeg har hørt Israels folks klageskrig under deres slaveri i Egypten, og da jeg har indgået en pagt med dem, vil jeg også opfylde det løfte, jeg gav dem.

6 Sig derfor til israelitterne: ‚Jeg er Herren, og jeg vil befri jer fra slaveriet i Egypten med vældig magt og store undere.

7 I skal være mit udvalgte folk, og jeg vil være jeres Gud. I skal opleve, at jeg er Herren, jeres Gud, og at jeg befrier jer fra slaveriet i Egypten.

8 Jeg vil føre jer til det land, jeg lovede Abraham, Isak og Jakob. Jeg giver det til jer, og det skal være jeres. Jeg er Herren!’ ”

9 Moses fortalte nu folket, hvad Gud havde sagt, men de ville ikke længere høre på ham. De havde fuldstændig mistet modet på grund af den øgede arbejdsbyrde.

10 Da sagde Herren til Moses:

11 „Gå tilbage til kong Farao og sig til ham, at han skal lade israelitterne rejse ud af Egypten.”

12 „Men Herre!” indvendte Moses. „Når mit eget folk ikke engang vil høre på mig, hvordan kan jeg så forvente, at Farao vil? Jeg duer ikke til at tale!”

13 Alligevel befalede Herren Moses og Aron at gå til kong Farao og forlange, at han skulle lade israelitterne forlade Egypten.

Levis slægt frem til Moses og Aron

14 Følgende personer var overhoveder for forskellige slægter blandt Israels folk: Israels ældste søn Ruben havde følgende sønner: Hanok, Pallu, Hetzron og Karmi.

15 Simeons sønner hed Jemuel, Jamin, Ohad, Jakin, Zohar og Shaul (hans mor var kana’anæer).

16 Levis sønner hed: Gershon, Kehat og Merari. Levi blev 137 år gammel.

17 Gershons sønner hed Libni og Shimi.

18 Kehats sønner hed Amram, Jitzhar, Hebron og Uzziel. Kehat blev 133 år gammel.

19 Meraris sønner hed Mahli og Mushi. Disse blev slægtsoverhoveder i Levis stamme ifølge deres slægtsbog.

20 Amram giftede sig med Jokebed, som var hans faster, og de fik sønnerne Aron og Moses. Amram blev 137 år gammel.

21 Jitzhars sønner hed Kora, Nefeg og Zikri.

22 Uzziels sønner hed Mishael, Elsafan og Sitri.

24 Koras sønner hed Assir, Elkana og Abiasaf. De blev overhoveder for familierne i Koras slægt.

25 Arons søn Eleazar giftede sig med en af Putiels døtre, og de fik en søn der hed Pinehas. Alle disse var slægtsoverhoveder inden for Levis stamme med tilhørende familier.

26 Aron og Moses, som er nævnt her i slægtstavlen, er de to mænd, til hvem Herren sagde: „Før Israels stammer ud af Egypten!”

27 Det var dem, som gik til Farao for at få tilladelse til at føre folket ud af landet.

Herrens befaling til Moses og Aron

28 Dengang Herren talte til Moses i Egypten,

29 sagde han til ham: „Jeg er Herren! Sig alt det, jeg pålægger dig, til kong Farao af Egypten.”

30 Men Moses svarede: „Jeg duer jo ikke til at tale! Hvorfor skulle Farao høre på mig?”

God Promises Deliverance

1 But the Lord said to Moses, “Now you shall see what I will do to Pharaoh; for with a strong hand he will send them out, and with a strong hand he will drive them out of his land.”

2 God spoke to Moses and said to him, “I am the Lord.

3 I appeared to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, as God Almighty,* but by my name the Lord I did not make myself known to them.

4 I also established my covenant with them to give them the land of Canaan, the land in which they lived as sojourners.

5 Moreover, I have heard the groaning of the people of Israel whom the Egyptians hold as slaves, and I have remembered my covenant.

6 Say therefore to the people of Israel, ‘I am the Lord, and I will bring you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians, and I will deliver you from slavery to them, and I will redeem you with an outstretched arm and with great acts of judgment.

7 I will take you to be my people, and I will be your God, and you shall know that I am the Lord your God, who has brought you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians.

8 I will bring you into the land that I swore to give to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob. I will give it to you for a possession. I am the Lord.’”

9 Moses spoke thus to the people of Israel, but they did not listen to Moses, because of their broken spirit and harsh slavery.

10 So the Lord said to Moses,

11 “Go in, tell Pharaoh king of Egypt to let the people of Israel go out of his land.”

12 But Moses said to the Lord, “Behold, the people of Israel have not listened to me. How then shall Pharaoh listen to me, for I am of uncircumcised lips?”

13 But the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron and gave them a charge about the people of Israel and about Pharaoh king of Egypt: to bring the people of Israel out of the land of Egypt.

The Genealogy of Moses and Aaron

14 These are the heads of their fathers’ houses: the sons of Reuben, the firstborn of Israel: Hanoch, Pallu, Hezron, and Carmi; these are the clans of Reuben.

15 The sons of Simeon: Jemuel, Jamin, Ohad, Jachin, Zohar, and Shaul, the son of a Canaanite woman; these are the clans of Simeon.

16 These are the names of the sons of Levi according to their generations: Gershon, Kohath, and Merari, the years of the life of Levi being 137 years.

17 The sons of Gershon: Libni and Shimei, by their clans.

18 The sons of Kohath: Amram, Izhar, Hebron, and Uzziel, the years of the life of Kohath being 133 years.

19 The sons of Merari: Mahli and Mushi. These are the clans of the Levites according to their generations.

20 Amram took as his wife Jochebed his father’s sister, and she bore him Aaron and Moses, the years of the life of Amram being 137 years.

21 The sons of Izhar: Korah, Nepheg, and Zichri.

22 The sons of Uzziel: Mishael, Elzaphan, and Sithri.

23 Aaron took as his wife Elisheba, the daughter of Amminadab and the sister of Nahshon, and she bore him Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.

25 Eleazar, Aaron’s son, took as his wife one of the daughters of Putiel, and she bore him Phinehas. These are the heads of the fathers’ houses of the Levites by their clans.

26 These are the Aaron and Moses to whom the Lord said: “Bring out the people of Israel from the land of Egypt by their hosts.”

27 It was they who spoke to Pharaoh king of Egypt about bringing out the people of Israel from Egypt, this Moses and this Aaron.

28 On the day when the Lord spoke to Moses in the land of Egypt,

29 the Lord said to Moses, “I am the Lord; tell Pharaoh king of Egypt all that I say to you.”

30 But Moses said to the Lord, “Behold, I am of uncircumcised lips. How will Pharaoh listen to me?”
