Deuteronomy 25
1 And if there should be a dispute between men, and they should come forward to judgement, and [the judges] judge, and justify the righteous, and condemn the wicked:
Če je polemika med ljudmi in pridejo na sodbo, da bi jim sodniki lahko sodili, potem bodo opravičili pravičnega in obsodili zlobnega.
2 then it shall come to pass, if the unrighteous should be worthy of stripes, you shall lay him down before the judges, and they shall scourge him before them according to his iniquity.
Zgodilo se bo, če bo zloben človek vreden, da bi bil pretepen, da mu bo sodnik povzročil, da se uleže in da bo z določenim številom udarcev pretepen pred njegovim obrazom, glede na njegovo krivdo.
3 And they shall scourge him with forty stripes in number, they shall not inflict more; for if you should scourge him [with] more stripes beyond these stripes, your brother will be disgraced before you.
Štirideset udarcev mu lahko naloži in ne več, da se ti tvoj brat ne bi zdel onečaščen, če bi prekoračil in ga pretepel z mnogimi udarci nad temi.
4 You shall not muzzle the ox that treads out the corn.
Ne boš zavezal gobca volu, kadar mane žito.
5 And if brethren should live together, and one of them should die, and should not have seed, the wife of the deceased shall not marry out [of the family] to a man not related: her husband's brother shall go in to her, and shall take her to himself for a wife, and shall dwell with her.
Če bratje prebivajo skupaj in eden izmed njih umre in nima otroka, se žena mrtvega ne bo poročila zunaj, s tujcem. Njen svak bo šel noter k njej in jo vzel k sebi za ženo in ji izpolnil dolžnost soprogovega brata.
6 And it shall come to pass that the child which she shall bear, shall be named by the name of the deceased, and his name shall not be blotted out of Israel.
Zgodilo se bo, da bo prvorojenec, ki ga ona rodi, nasledil ime njegovega brata, ki je mrtev, da njegovo ime ne bo izbrisano iz Izraela.
7 And if the man should not be willing to take his brother's wife, then shall the woman go up to the gate to the elders, and she shall say, My husband's brother will not raise up the name of his brother in Israel, my husband's brother has refused.
Če pa mož ne mara vzeti svakinje, potem naj gre žena njegovega brata gor k velikim vratom do starešin in reče: ›Brat mojega soproga odklanja, da bi svojemu bratu vzdignil ime v Izraelu; noče izpolniti dolžnosti brata mojega soproga.‹
8 And the elders of his city shall call him, and speak to him; and if he stand and say, I will not take her:
Potem ga bodo starešine njegovega mesta poklicali in mu govorili. Če pa se temu zoperstavi in reče: ›Ne maram je vzeti, ‹
9 then his brother's wife shall come forward before the elders, and shall loose one shoe from off his foot, and shall spit in his face, and shall answer and say, Thus shall they do to the man who will not build his brother's house in Israel.
potem bo žena njegovega brata prišla k njemu v prisotnosti starešin in sezula njegov čevelj iz njegovega stopala in pljunila v njegov obraz in odgovorila ter rekla: ›Tako bo storjeno tistemu možu, ki noče graditi hiše svojega brata.‹
10 And his name shall be called in Israel, The house of him that has had his shoe loosed.
Njegovo ime bo v Izraelu imenovano: ›Hiša tistega, ki je sezut.‹
11 And if men should strive together, a man with his brother, and the wife of one of them should advance to rescue her husband out of the hand of him that smites him, and she should stretch forth her hand, and take hold of his private parts;
Kadar se možje skupaj prepirajo drug z drugim in se žena enega približa, da bi svojega soproga osvobodila iz roke tistega, ki ga udarja in iztegne svojo roko, da ga zgrabi za njegove genitalije,
12 you shall cut off her hand; your eye shall not spare her.
potem boš odsekal njeno roko, tvoje oko se je ne bo usmililo.
13 You shall not have in your bag various weights, a great and a small.
V svoji torbi ne boš imel različnih uteži, velike in male.
14 You shall not have in your house various measures, a great and a small.
V svoji hiši ne boš imel različnih mer, velike in male.
15 You shall have a true and just weight, and a true and just measure, that you may live long upon the land which the Lord your God gives you for an inheritance.
Temveč boš imel popolno in pravično utež, popolno in pravično mero boš imel, da bodo tvoji dnevi lahko podaljšani v deželi, ki ti jo daje Gospod, tvoj Bog.
16 For every one that does this [is] an abomination to the Lord your God, even every one that does injustice.
Kajti vsi, ki počno takšne stvari, in vsi, ki počno nepravično, so ogabnost Gospodu, tvojemu Bogu.
17 Remember what things Amalec did to you by the way, when you went forth out of the land of Egypt:
Spomni se kaj ti je po poti storil Amálek, ko ste izšli iz Egipta,
18 how he withstood you in the way, and harassed your rear, [even] those that were weary behind you, and you did hunger and was weary; and he did not fear God.
kako te je srečal po poti in udaril najbolj zadnje od tebe, torej vse, kar je bilo slabotno za teboj, ko si bil ti slaboten in utrujen, on pa se ni bal Boga.
19 And it shall come to pass whenever the Lord your God shall have given you rest from all your enemies round about you, in the land which the Lord your God gives you to inherit, you shall blot out the name of Amalec from under heaven, and shall not forget [to do it].
Zato bo, ko ti bo Gospod, tvoj Bog, dal počitek pred vsemi tvojimi sovražniki naokoli, v deželi, ki ti jo daje Gospod, tvoj Bog, za dediščino, da jo vzameš v last, da boš izpod neba izbrisal spomin na Amáleka. Tega ne boš pozabil.
