2 Mose 24

Étudier

   

1 Und zu Mose sprach er: Steig herauf zum HERRN, du und Aaron, Nadab und Abihu, und die siebenzig Ältesten Israels, und betet an von ferne.

2 Aber Mose alleine nahe sich zum HERRN, und laß jene sich nicht herzunahen; und das Volk komme auch nicht mit ihm herauf.

3 Mose kam und erzählete dem Volk alle Worte des HERRN und alle Rechte. Da antwortete alles Volk mit einer Stimme und sprachen: Alle Worte, die der HERR gesagt hat, wollen wir tun.

4 Da schrieb Mose alle Worte des HERRN und machte sich des Morgens frühe auf und bauete einen Altar unten am Berge mit zwölf Säulen nach den zwölf Stämmen Israels.

5 Und sandte hin Jünglinge aus den Kindern Israel, daß sie Brandopfer darauf opferten und Dankopfer dem HERRN von Farren.

6 Und Mose nahm die Hälfte des Bluts und tat's in ein Becken; die andere Hälfte sprengete er auf den Altar.

7 Und nahm das Buch des Bundes und las es vor den Ohren des Volks. Und da sie sprachen: Alles, was der HERR gesagt hat, wollen wir tun und gehorchen,

8 da nahm Mose das Blut und sprengete das Volk damit und sprach: Sehet, das ist Blut des Bundes, den der HERR mit euch machte über allen diesen Worten.

9 Da stiegen Mose und Aaron, Nadab und Abihu und die siebenzig Ältesten Israels hinauf

10 und sahen den Gott Israels. Unter seinen Füßen war es wie ein schöner Saphir und wie die Gestalt des Himmels, wenn es klar ist.

11 Und er ließ seine Hand nicht über dieselben Obersten in Israel. Und da sie Gott geschaute hatten, aßen und tranken sie.

12 Und der HERR sprach zu Mose: Komm herauf zu mir auf den Berg und bleibe daselbst, daß ich dir gebe steinerne Tafeln und Gesetze und Gebote, die ich geschrieben habe, die du sie lehren sollst.

13 Da machte sich Mose auf und sein Diener Josua und stieg auf den Berg Gottes.

14 Und sprach zu den Ältesten: Bleibet hie, bis wir wieder zu euch kommen. Siehe, Aaron und Hur sind bei euch; hat jemand eine Sache, der komme vor dieselben.

15 Da nun Mose auf den Berg kam, bedeckte eine Wolke den Berg.

16 Und die HERRLIchkeit des HERRN wohnete auf dem Berge Sinai und deckte ihn mit der Wolke sechs Tage; und rief Mose am siebenten Tage aus der Wolke.

17 Und das Ansehen der HERRLIchkeit des HERRN war wie ein verzehrend Feuer auf der Spitze des Berges vor den Kindern Israel.

18 Und Mose ging mitten in die Wolke und stieg auf den Berg; und blieb auf dem Berge vierzig Tage und vierzig Nächte.

Numbers 23

Étudier

   

1 Balaam said to Balak, "Build me here seven altars, and prepare me here seven bulls and seven rams."

2 Balak did as Balaam had spoken; and Balak and Balaam offered on every altar a bull and a ram.

3 Balaam said to Balak, "Stand by your burnt offering, and I will go: perhaps Yahweh will come to meet me; and whatever he shows me I will tell you." He went to a bare height.

4 God met Balaam: and he said to him, "I have prepared the seven altars, and I have offered up a bull and a ram on every altar."

5 Yahweh put a word in Balaam's mouth, and said, "Return to Balak, and thus you shall speak."

6 He returned to him, and behold, he was standing by his burnt offering, he, and all the princes of Moab.

7 He took up his parable, and said, "From Aram has Balak brought me, the king of Moab from the mountains of the East. Come, curse Jacob for me. Come, defy Israel.

8 How shall I curse whom God has not cursed? How shall I defy whom Yahweh has not defied?

9 For from the top of the rocks I see him. From the hills I see him. Behold, it is a people that dwells alone, and shall not be reckoned among the nations.

10 Who can count the dust of Jacob, or number the fourth part of Israel? Let me die the death of the righteous! Let my last end be like his!"

11 Balak said to Balaam, "What have you done to me? I took you to curse my enemies, and behold, you have blessed them altogether."

12 He answered and said, "Must I not take heed to speak that which Yahweh puts in my mouth?"

13 Balak said to him, "Please come with me to another place, where you may see them; you shall see but the utmost part of them, and shall not see them all: and curse me them from there."

14 He took him into the field of Zophim, to the top of Pisgah, and built seven altars, and offered up a bull and a ram on every altar.

15 He said to Balak, "Stand here by your burnt offering, while I meet [Yahweh] yonder."

16 Yahweh met Balaam, and put a word in his mouth, and said, "Return to Balak, and say this."

17 He came to him, and behold, he was standing by his burnt offering, and the princes of Moab with him. Balak said to him, "What has Yahweh spoken?"

18 He took up his parable, and said, "Rise up, Balak, and hear! Listen to me, you son of Zippor.

19 God is not a man, that he should lie, nor the son of man, that he should repent. Has he said, and will he not do it? Or has he spoken, and will he not make it good?

20 Behold, I have received a command to bless. He has blessed, and I can't reverse it.

21 He has not seen iniquity in Jacob. Neither has he seen perverseness in Israel. Yahweh his God is with him. The shout of a king is among them.

22 God brings them out of Egypt. He has as it were the strength of the wild ox.

23 Surely there is no enchantment with Jacob; Neither is there any divination with Israel. Now it shall be said of Jacob and of Israel, What has God done!

24 Behold, the people rises up as a lioness, As a lion he lifts himself up. He shall not lie down until he eat of the prey, and drinks the blood of the slain."

25 Balak said to Balaam, "Neither curse them at all, nor bless them at all."

26 But Balaam answered Balak, "Didn't I tell you, saying, 'All that Yahweh speaks, that I must do?'"

27 Balak said to Balaam, "Come now, I will take you to another place; perhaps it will please God that you may curse me them from there."

28 Balak took Balaam to the top of Peor, that looks down on the desert.

29 Balaam said to Balak, "Build me here seven altars, and prepare me here seven bulls and seven rams."

30 Balak did as Balaam had said, and offered up a bull and a ram on every altar.
