Nādāba un Abīhū nāve
1 Ārona dēli Nādābs un Abīhū ņēma katrs savu kvēpināmo trauku, lika tur uguni un pār to kvēpināmās smaržzāles un pienesa Kunga priekšā svešu uguni, ko viņš tiem nebija pavēlējis. 2 Tad nāca uguns no Kunga vaiga, aprija viņus, un tie mira Kunga priekšā. 3 Un Mozus teica Āronam: “Tā Kungs ir runājis:
tajos, kas man tuvi, es būšu svēts,
visai tautai es būšu godā!” –
un Ārons apklusa. 4 Tad Mozus sauca Mīšaēlu un Elcāfānu, Ārona tēvoča Uziēla dēlus, un teica tiem: “Ejiet, iznesiet savus brāļus no svētvietas ārpus nometnes!” 5 Viņi gāja un iznesa tos viņu tērpos ārpus nometnes, kā Mozus bija teicis. 6 Tad Mozus teica Āronam un viņa dēliem Elāzāram un Ītāmāram: “Neatstājiet savas galvas izpūrušas un neplēsiet savas drānas, ka jūs nemirstat un neliekat dusmām nākt pār visu sapulci. Bet jūsu brāļi, viss Israēla nams, lai apraud Kunga uguns sadedzinātos. 7 Neizejiet pa Saiešanas telts durvīm, ka jūs nemirstat, jo pār jums ir Kunga svaidāmā eļļa,” – un viņi darīja, kā Mozus sacīja.
8 Kungs sacīja Āronam: 9 “Vīnu un skurbu dzērienu nedzeriet – ne tu, ne tavi dēli –, kad ejat Saiešanas teltī, ka jūs nemirstat! Tas ir mūžīgs likums uz jūsu paaudzēm! 10 Lai jūs atšķirat svētu no nesvēta, nešķīstu no šķīsta! 11 Māciet Israēla dēliem visus likumus, ko Kungs tiem teicis caur Mozu.”
12 Un Mozus sacīja Āronam un viņa atlikušajiem dēliem Elāzāram un Ītāmāram: “Ņemiet labības dāvanu, kas atlikusi no Kunga dedzināmajiem upuriem, un ēdiet to neraudzētu blakus altārim, jo tā ir svētumu svētums! 13 Ēdiet to svētā vietā, jo tā ir likumīgā daļa tev un taviem dēliem no Kunga dedzināmajiem upuriem, jo tā man ir pavēlēts! 14 Bet līgojamā upura krūts gabalu un cilājamā upura cisku ēdiet šķīstā vietā – tu, tavi dēli un meitas kopā ar tevi, jo tā ir tava likumīgā daļa un tavu dēlu likumīgā daļa, kas dota no Israēla dēlu miera upuriem. 15 Lai viņi pienes cilājamā upura cisku un līgojamā upura krūts gabalu ar tauku dedzināmajiem upuriem un šūpo Kunga priekšā līgojamo upuri, un tas būs tev un taviem dēliem kopā ar tevi – mūžīga likumīgā daļa, kā Kungs ir pavēlējis.”
16 Tad Mozus meklēt meklēja grēku upura āzi, un redzi – tas jau bija sadedzināts! Un viņš sadusmojās uz Elāzāru un Ītāmāru, atlikušajiem Ārona dēliem, un sacīja: 17 “Kāpēc jūs neēdāt grēku upuri svētvietā, jo tas taču ir svētumu svētums, un tas jums dots, lai nestu visas sapulces vainu, lai veiktu izlīgumu par tās grēkiem Kunga priekšā! 18 Tiešām, tā asinis nav ienestas svētā vietā! Jums vajadzēja to ēst svētvietā, kā es pavēlēju!” 19 Bet Ārons teica Mozum: “Redzi, šodien viņi pienesa Kunga priekšā savu grēku upuri un savu sadedzināmo upuri – un vēl tas ir nācis pār mani! – bet, ja es būtu ēdis grēku upuri šodien, vai tas patiktu Kungam?!” 20 Un Mozus to dzirdēja, un tas viņam patika.
1 And Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, took either of them his censer, and put fire therein, and put incense thereon, and offered strange fire before the LORD, which he commanded them not. 2 And there went out fire from the LORD, and devoured them, and they died before the LORD.
3 Then Moses said unto Aaron, This is it that the LORD spake, saying, I will be sanctified in them that come nigh me, and before all the people I will be glorified. And Aaron held his peace. 4 And Moses called Mishael and Elzaphan, the sons of Uzziel the uncle of Aaron, and said unto them, Come near, carry your brethren from before the sanctuary out of the camp. 5 So they went near, and carried them in their coats out of the camp; as Moses had said. 6 And Moses said unto Aaron, and unto Eleazar and unto Ithamar, his sons, Uncover not your heads, neither rend your clothes; lest ye die, and lest wrath come upon all the people: but let your brethren, the whole house of Israel, bewail the burning which the LORD hath kindled. 7 And ye shall not go out from the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, lest ye die: for the anointing oil of the LORD is upon you. And they did according to the word of Moses.
8 ¶ And the LORD spake unto Aaron, saying, 9 Do not drink wine nor strong drink, thou, nor thy sons with thee, when ye go into the tabernacle of the congregation, lest ye die: it shall be a statute for ever throughout your generations: 10 And that ye may put difference between holy and unholy, and between unclean and clean; 11 And that ye may teach the children of Israel all the statutes which the LORD hath spoken unto them by the hand of Moses.
12 ¶ And Moses spake unto Aaron, and unto Eleazar and unto Ithamar, his sons that were left, Take the meat offering that remaineth of the offerings of the LORD made by fire, and eat it without leaven beside the altar: for it is most holy: 13 And ye shall eat it in the holy place, because it is thy due, and thy sons’ due, of the sacrifices of the LORD made by fire: for so I am commanded. 14 And the wave breast and heave shoulder shall ye eat in a clean place; thou, and thy sons, and thy daughters with thee: for they be thy due, and thy sons’ due, which are given out of the sacrifices of peace offerings of the children of Israel. 15 The heave shoulder and the wave breast shall they bring with the offerings made by fire of the fat, to wave it for a wave offering before the LORD; and it shall be thine, and thy sons’ with thee, by a statute for ever; as the LORD hath commanded.
16 ¶ And Moses diligently sought the goat of the sin offering, and, behold, it was burnt: and he was angry with Eleazar and Ithamar, the sons of Aaron which were left alive , saying, 17 Wherefore have ye not eaten the sin offering in the holy place, seeing it is most holy, and God hath given it you to bear the iniquity of the congregation, to make atonement for them before the LORD? 18 Behold, the blood of it was not brought in within the holy place: ye should indeed have eaten it in the holy place , as I commanded. 19 And Aaron said unto Moses, Behold, this day have they offered their sin offering and their burnt offering before the LORD; and such things have befallen me: and if I had eaten the sin offering to day, should it have been accepted in the sight of the LORD? 20 And when Moses heard that , he was content.
