Deuteronomy 17
1 Don't sacrifice to the Lord your God cattle or a sheep that has a defect or has something seriously wrong, for that is offensive to the Lord your God.
Ne prinosi Gospodu Bogu svojemu ni vola ni jagnjeta ni jareta na kom ima mana ili kako god zlo; jer je gadno pred Gospodom Bogom tvojim.
2 There may be a report that one of you, whether a man or a woman, living in a town that the Lord your God gave you, has been found to be sinning in the sight of the Lord your God by breaking the Lord's agreement.
Ako se naðe kod tebe u kojem od mjesta tvojih, koja ti da Gospod Bog tvoj, èovjek ili žena da uèini zlo pred Gospodom Bogom tvojim prestupajuæi zavjet njegov,
3 This person has done this by going to worship other gods, bowing down to them—or to the sun, moon, or any of the stars of heaven—which I have ordered you not to do.
I otide te služi drugim bogovima i klanja im se, ili suncu ili mjesecu ili èemu god iz vojske nebeske, što nijesam zapovjedio,
4 If you hear such a report, you need to make a full investigation. If you find out that the report is true, and that such an awful sin has been committed in Israel,
I tebi se to javi i ti èuješ, onda raspitaj dobro; pa ako bude istina i doista se uèinila ona gadna stvar u Izrailju,
5 you must have the man or woman who has committed this terrible act taken outside the town and stoned to death.
Izvedi onoga èovjeka ili onu ženu, koji uèiniše ono zlo, na vrata svoja, èovjeka onoga ili ženu, i zaspi ih kamenjem da poginu.
6 That person is to be executed based on the evidence given by two or three witnesses. No one shall be executed on the evidence given by a single witness.
Na svjedoèanstvo dva ili tri èovjeka da se pogubi onaj koga valja pogubiti; ali na svjedoèanstvo jednoga èovjeka da se ne pogubi.
7 The witnesses must act first in executing the person, and then the rest of those who are present. You must eliminate the evil from among you.
Svjedoci neka prvi dignu ruke na nj da ga ubiju; a potom sav narod; tako izvadi zlo iz sebe.
8 If there's a case before your town court that is too problematic for you to settle, whether the argument is over murder or manslaughter, one legal decision against another, or different degrees of assault, you must take the issue to the place the Lord your God will choose.
Kad ti bude teško rasuditi izmeðu krvi i krvi, izmeðu raspre i raspre, ili izmeðu rane i rane, oko kojih bude parnica u tvojem mjestu, tada ustani i idi u mjesto koje izbere Gospod Bog tvoj;
9 Go to the priests, the Levites, and to the judge in charge. Present the case to them, and they will give you their decision.
I otidi k sveštenicima Levitima ili k sudiji koji onda bude, pa ih upitaj, i oni æe ti kazati kako valja presuditi.
10 You must abide by the decision they give you there at the place the Lord will choose. Make sure you do everything they tell you to do,
I uèini onako kako ti kažu u mjestu koje izbere Gospod, i gledaj da uèiniš sasvijem onako kako te nauèe.
11 in accordance with the legal instructions they give you and the verdict they delivered. Don't deviate from the decision they give you.
Po zakonu kojemu te nauèe, i po presudi, koju ti kažu, uèini; ne otstupi od onoga što ti kažu ni nadesno ni nalijevo.
12 Anyone who treats with contempt either the priest (who ministers before the Lord your God) or the judge, must be executed. You must eliminate this evil from Israel.
Ako li bi se ko upro te ne bi htio poslušati sveštenika koji ondje stoji te služi Gospodu Bogu tvojemu, ili sudije, taki èovjek da se pogubi; i izvadi zlo iz Izrailja,
13 Then everyone else will hear about it and be afraid, and won't act with contempt in the future.
Da sav narod èuje i boji se, i unapredak da ne radi uporno.
14 After you've entered the land that the Lord your God is giving you, and have taken it over and settled in it, and you decide, “Let's have a king to rule over us like all the other nations around us do,”
Kad uðeš u zemlju koju ti daje Gospod Bog tvoj da je naslijediš, i naseliš se u njoj, ako reèeš: da postavim sebi cara, kao što imaju svi narodi oko mene,
15 you can have a king but only one chosen by the Lord your God. He must be an Israelite. You must not have a king who is a foreigner; someone who is not an Israelite.
Samo onoga postavi sebi za cara, kojega izbere Gospod Bog tvoj; izmeðu braæe svoje postavi cara sebi; a nemoj postaviti nad sobom èovjeka tuðina, koji nije brat tvoj.
16 Your king must not have large numbers of horses, or send his men to Egypt to buy more horses, because the Lord has declared, “You must never to return there again.”
Ali da ne drži mnogo konja, i da ne vraæa naroda u Misir da bi imao mnogo konja, jer vam je Gospod kazao: ne vraæajte se više ovijem putem.
17 He must not have many wives, so they don't lead him away from following the Lord. He must not have large quantities of silver and gold.
I da nema mnogo žena, da se ne bi otpadilo srce njegovo, ni srebra ni zlata da nema vrlo mnogo.
18 Once he is king and sits on his royal throne, he must make a copy for himself of these instructions, writing them on a scroll in the presence of the Levitical priests.
A kad sjede na prijesto carstva svojega, neka prepiše sebi u knjigu ovaj zakon od sveštenika Levita;
19 He is to keep it with him, and he is to read from it each day throughout his life, so he may learn to respect the Lord his God by being careful to follow every word of these instructions and regulations.
I neka ga drži kod sebe i neka ga èita dok je živ, da se uèi bojati se Gospoda Boga svojega, držati sve rijeèi ovoga zakona i ove uredbe, i tvoriti ih;
20 Then he won't think more of himself than his fellow Israelites, and he won't deviate from the commandments, so that he and his sons may have long reigns over the kingdom of Israel.
Da se ne bi podiglo srce njegovo iznad braæe njegove, i da ne bi otstupilo od ove zapovijesti ni nadesno ni nalijevo, da bi dugo carovao on i sinovi njegovi u Izrailju.
