¹Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, each took his censer, and put fire in it, and laid incense on it, and offered strange fire before Yahweh, which he had not commanded them.

¹Aronova sinova pa, Nadab in Abihu, vzameta vsak kadilnico svojo in deneta ognja vanjo in položita nanj kadila, in prineseta tuj ogenj pred GOSPODA, česar jim ni bil zapovedal.

²And fire came forth from before Yahweh, and devoured them, and they died before Yahweh.

²Zato pride ogenj izpred GOSPODA in ju usmrti, in umrla sta pred GOSPODOM.

³Then Moses said to Aaron, “This is what Yahweh spoke of, saying, ‘I will show myself holy to those who come near me, and before all the people I will be glorified.’” Aaron held his peace.

³Tedaj reče Mojzes Aronu: To je, kar je govoril GOSPOD, rekoč: Posvečen bom v njih, ki se mi bližajo, in pred obličjem vsega ljudstva se oslavim. Aron pa molči.

⁴Moses called Mishael and Elzaphan, the sons of Uzziel the uncle of Aaron, and said to them, “Draw near, carry your brothers from before the sanctuary out of the camp.”

⁴In Mojzes pokliče Misaela in Elzafana, sinova Uziela, strica Aronovega, in jima veli: Pristopita, odnesita brata svoja iz svetišča ven za taborišče.

⁵So they drew near, and carried them in their coats out of the camp, as Moses had said.

⁵Stopita torej noter in ju odneseta v njunih suknjah ven za taborišče, kakor je rekel Mojzes.

⁶Moses said to Aaron, and to Eleazar and to Ithamar, his sons, “Don’t let the hair of your heads go loose, neither tear your clothes; that you don’t die, and that he not be angry with all the congregation: but let your brothers, the whole house of Israel, bewail the burning which Yahweh has kindled.

⁶In Mojzes reče Aronu in Eleazarju in Itamarju, njegovima sinoma: Ne odkrivajte si glav in oblačil svojih ne trgajte, da ne umrjete ter da se On ne razjezi nad vso občino Izraelovo; ampak bratje vaši, vsa Izraelova hiša naj plačejo zaradi tega požara, ki ga je napravil GOSPOD.

⁷You shall not go out from the door of the Tent of Meeting, lest you die; for the anointing oil of Yahweh is on you.” They did according to the word of Moses.

⁷In iz vrat shodnega šatora ne odhajajte, da ne umrjete, zakaj olje maziljenja GOSPODOVEGA je na vas. In storili so po besedi Mojzesovi.

⁸Yahweh spoke to Aaron, saying,

⁸In GOSPOD je govoril Aronu, rekoč:

⁹“Drink no wine nor strong drink, you, nor your sons with you, when you go into the Tent of Meeting, that you don’t die: it shall be a statute forever throughout your generations:

⁹Vina in opojne pijače ne pij, ne ti, ne sinovi tvoji s teboj, kadar vhajate v shodni šator, da ne umrjete. Večna bodi to postava po rodovih vaših,

¹⁰and that you are to make a distinction between the holy and the common, and between the unclean and the clean;

¹⁰da morete razpoznati, kaj je sveto in kaj nesveto, kaj je čisto in kaj nečisto,

¹¹and that you are to teach the children of Israel all the statutes which Yahweh has spoken to them by Moses.”

¹¹in da učite sinove Izraelove vse postave, katere jim je govoril GOSPOD po Mojzesu.

¹²Moses spoke to Aaron, and to Eleazar and to Ithamar, his sons who were left, “Take the meal offering that remains of the offerings of Yahweh made by fire, and eat it without yeast beside the altar; for it is most holy;

¹²In Mojzes ogovori Arona in Eleazarja in Itamarja, sinova njegova, ki sta ostala: Vzemite jedilno daritev, ki je ostala od ognjenih daritev GOSPODOVIH, in uživajte jo z opresniki pri oltarju, kajti presveta je.

¹³and you shall eat it in a holy place, because it is your portion, and your sons’ portion, of the offerings of Yahweh made by fire: for so I am commanded.

¹³Zato jo uživajte na svetem kraju, zakaj določena je tebi in določena je sinovom tvojim od ognjenih daritev GOSPODOVIH; kajti tako mi je ukazano.

¹⁴The waved breast and the heaved thigh you shall eat in a clean place, you, and your sons, and your daughters with you: for they are given as your portion, and your sons’ portion, out of the sacrifices of the peace offerings of the children of Israel.

¹⁴Prsi majanja pa in stegno podviga jejte na čistem kraju, ti in sinovi tvoji in hčere tvoje s teboj; zakaj kot tebi določeno in otrokom tvojim določeno je dano to od mirovnih daritev sinov Izraelovih.

¹⁵The heaved thigh and the waved breast they shall bring with the offerings made by fire of the fat, to wave it for a wave offering before Yahweh: and it shall be yours, and your sons’ with you, as a portion forever; as Yahweh has commanded.”

¹⁵Stegno podviga in prsi majanja naj prineso z ognjenimi žrtvami tolstine vred, da se darujejo z majanjem pred GOSPODOM: in tvoje bodi to in sinov tvojih s teboj kot tebi določeno vekomaj, kakor je GOSPOD zapovedal.

¹⁶Moses diligently inquired about the goat of the sin offering, and, behold, it was burned: and he was angry with Eleazar and with Ithamar, the sons of Aaron who were left, saying,

¹⁶Mojzes pa se skrbno ozira, kje je kozlič v daritev za greh, in glej, sežgan je bil. In razsrdi se nad Eleazarjem in Itamarjem, Aronovima sinoma, ki sta ostala živa, in reče:

¹⁷“Why haven’t you eaten the sin offering in the place of the sanctuary, since it is most holy, and he has given it you to bear the iniquity of the congregation, to make atonement for them before Yahweh?

¹⁷Zakaj nista zaužila daritve za greh na svetem kraju? saj je presveta, in On vama jo je dal, da bi nosila krivico občine, da storita poravnavo zanje pred GOSPODOM.

¹⁸Behold, its blood was not brought into the inner part of the sanctuary: you certainly should have eaten it in the sanctuary, as I commanded.”

¹⁸Glejta, njena kri se ni ponesla v svetišče: morala bi jo bila torej použiti na svetem kraju, kakor sem bil zapovedal.

¹⁹Aaron spoke to Moses, “Behold, this day they have offered their sin offering and their burnt offering before Yahweh; and such things as these have happened to me: and if I had eaten the sin offering today, would it have been pleasing in the sight of Yahweh?”

¹⁹Aron pa odgovori Mojzesu: Glej, danes sta darovala svojo daritev za greh in svojo žgalno daritev pred GOSPODOM, in mene je zadela taka reč; če bi bil jedel daritev za greh danes, ali bi bilo dobro v očeh GOSPODOVIH?Ko Mojzes to sliši, se mu prav vidi.

²⁰When Moses heard that, it was pleasing in his sight.

²⁰Ko Mojzes to sliši, se mu prav vidi.
