Leviticus 18

1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,

Gospod je spregovoril Mojzesu, rekoč:

2 Speak to the children of Israel, and you shall say to them, I [am] the Lord your God.

»Govori Izraelovim otrokom in jim reci: ›Jaz sem Gospod, vaš Bog.

3 You shall not do according to the devices of Egypt, in which you lived: and according to the devices of the land of Chanaan, into which I bring you, you shall not do; and you shall not walk in their ordinances.

Ne boste delali po ravnanjih egiptovske dežele, v kateri ste prebivali, in po ravnanjih kánaanske dežele, kamor vas vodim, ne boste delali. Niti se ne boste ravnali po njihovih odredbah.

4 You shall observe my judgements, and shall keep my ordinances, and shall walk in them: I [am] the Lord your God.

Izvrševali boste moje sodbe in se držali mojih odredb, da v njih hodite. Jaz sem Gospod, vaš Bog.

5 So you shall keep all my ordinances, and all my judgements, and do them; which if a man do, he shall live in them: I [am] the Lord your God.

Vi se boste torej držali mojih zakonov in mojih sodb, katere, če jih človek izvršuje, bo živel v njih. Jaz sem Gospod.

6 No man shall draw near to any of his near kindred to uncover their nakedness; I [am] the Lord.

Nihče izmed vas se ne bo približal kateremukoli, ki mu je bližnji sorodnik, da odkrije njihovo nagoto. Jaz sem Gospod.

7 You shall not uncover the nakedness of your father, or the nakedness of your mother, for she is your mother; you shall not uncover her nakedness.

Nagote svojega očeta ali nagote svoje matere ne boš odkril. Ona je tvoja mati; ne boš odkril njene nagote.

8 You shall not uncover the nakedness of your father's wife; it is your father's nakedness.

Nagote žene svojega očeta ne boš odkril. To je nagota tvojega očeta.

9 The nakedness of your sister by your father or by your mother, born at home or abroad, their nakedness you shall not uncover.

Nagote svoje sestre, hčere tvojega očeta ali hčere tvoje matere, bodisi je ona rojena doma ali rojena zunaj, torej njune nagote ne boš odkril.

10 The nakedness of your son's daughter, or your daughter's daughter, their nakedness you shall not uncover; because it is your nakedness.

Nagote hčere svojega sina ali hčerine hčere, torej njune nagote ne boš odkril, kajti njuna je tvoja lastna nagota.

11 You shall not uncover the nakedness of the daughter of your father's wife; she is your sister by the same father: you shall not uncover her nakedness.

Nagote hčere žene tvojega očeta, rojene tvojemu očetu; ona je tvoja sestra, ne boš odkril njene nagote.

12 You shall not uncover the nakedness of your father's sister, for she is near akin to your father.

Ne boš odkril nagote sestre svojega očeta; ona je bližnja sorodnica tvojega očeta.

13 You shall not uncover the nakedness of your mother's sister, for she is near akin to your mother.

Ne boš odkril nagote sestre svoje matere, kajti ona je bližnja sorodnica tvoje matere.

14 You shall not uncover the nakedness of your father's brother, and you shall not go in to his wife; for she is your relation.

Ne boš odkril nagote brata svojega očeta, ne boš se približal njegovi ženi; ona je tvoja teta.

15 You shall not uncover the nakedness of your daughter-in-law, for she is your son's wife, you shall not uncover her nakedness.

Ne boš odkril nagote svoje snahe, ona je sinova žena; ne boš odkril njene nagote.

16 You shall not uncover the nakedness of your brother's wife: it is your brother's nakedness.

Ne boš odkril nagote žene svojega brata. To je nagota tvojega brata.

17 The nakedness of a woman and her daughter shall you not uncover; her son's daughter, and her daughter's daughter, shall you not take, to uncover their nakedness, for they are your kinswomen: it is impiety.

Ne boš odkril nagote ženske in njene hčere niti ne boš vzel hčere njenega sina ali hčere njene hčere, da bi odkril njeno nagoto, kajti oni sta njeni bližnji sorodnici. To je zlo.

18 You shall not take a wife in addition to her sister, as a rival, to uncover her nakedness in opposition to her, while she is yet living.

Niti ne boš vzel žene k njeni sestri, da jo dražiš, da odkriješ njeno nagoto poleg druge v njenem času življenja.

19 And you shall not go in to a woman under separation for her uncleanness, to uncover her nakedness.

Prav tako se ne boš približal ženski, da odkriješ njeno nagoto, dokler je oddvojena zaradi svoje nečistosti.

20 And you shall not lie with your neighbour's wife, to defile yourself with her.

Poleg tega ne boš meseno ležal z ženo svojega soseda, da bi se z njo omadeževal.

21 And you shall not give of your seed to serve a ruler; and you shall not profane my holy name; I [am] the Lord.

Nikomur izmed svojega semena ne boš dovolil iti skozi ogenj k Molohu niti ne boš oskrunil imena svojega Boga. Jaz sem Gospod.

22 And you shall not lie with a man as with a woman, for it is an abomination.

Ne boš ležal z moškimi kakor z ženskami. To je ogabnost.

23 Neither shall you lie with any quadruped for copulation, to be polluted with it: neither shall a woman present herself before any quadruped to have connexion with it; for it is an abomination.

Niti ne boš ležal z nobeno živaljo, da s tem omadežuješ samega sebe niti ne bo nobena ženska stala pred živaljo, da leže dol k njej. To je zmešnjava.

24 Do not defile yourselves with any of these things; for in all these things the nations are defiled, which I drive out before you,

Ne omadežujte se z nobeno od teh stvari, kajti v vseh teh so omadeževani narodi, ki jih jaz preženem pred vami.

25 and the land is polluted; and I have recompensed their iniquity to them because of it, and the land is aggrieved with them that dwell upon it.

Zemlja je omadeževana, zato obiščem krivičnost le-te na njej in sama zemlja izbruha njene prebivalce.

26 And you shall keep all my statutes and all my ordinances, and you shall do none of these abominations; neither the native, nor the stranger that joins himself with you:

Zato se boste držali mojih zakonov in mojih sodb in ne boste zagrešili nobene od teh ogabnosti; niti kdorkoli izmed vašega lastnega naroda niti katerikoli tujec, ki začasno biva med vami

27 (for all these abominations the men of the land did who were before you, and the land was defiled, )

(kajti vse te ogabnosti so storili ljudje dežele, ki so bili pred vami in dežela je omadeževana),

28 and lest the land be aggrieved with you in your polluting it, as it was aggrieved with the nations before you.

da dežela tudi vas ne izpljune, ko ste jo omadeževali, kakor je izpljunila narode, ki so bili pred vami.

29 For whoever shall do any of these abominations, the souls that do them shall be destroyed from amongst their people.

Kajti kdorkoli bo zagrešil katero izmed teh ogabnosti, celo duše, ki jih zagrešijo, bodo iztrebljene izmed svojega ljudstva.

30 And you shall keep mine ordinances, that you may not do any of the abominable practices, which have taken place before your time: and you shall not be polluted in them; for I [am] the Lord your God.

Zatorej se boste držali mojih odredb, da ne zagrešite kateregakoli izmed teh gnusnih običajev, ki so bili zagrešeni pred vami in da se ne omadežujete v tem. Jaz sem Gospod, vaš Bog.‹«
