Deuteronomy 25
1 If there be a controversy between men, and they come unto judgment, that the judges may judge them; then they shall justify the righteous, and condemn the wicked.
Kad je raspra meðu ljudima, pa doðu na sud da im sude, tada pravoga neka opravdaju a krivoga neka osude.
2 And it shall be, if the wicked man be worthy to be beaten, that the judge shall cause him to lie down, and to be beaten before his face, according to his fault, by a certain number.
I ako krivi zaslužuje boj, tada sudija neka zapovjedi da ga povale i biju pred njim, na broj prema krivici njegovoj.
3 Forty stripes he may give him, and not exceed: lest, if he should exceed, and beat him above these with many stripes, then thy brother should seem vile unto thee.
Do èetrdeset udaraca neka zapovjedi da mu udare, ne više, da se ne bi poništio brat tvoj u tvojim oèima, kad bi mu se udarilo više udaraca.
4 Thou shalt not muzzle the ox when he treadeth out the grain.
Nemoj zavezati usta volu kad vrše.
5 If brethren dwell together, and one of them die, and have no child, the wife of the dead shall not marry without unto a stranger: her husband’s brother shall go in unto her, and take her to him to wife, and perform the duty of an husband’s brother unto her.
Kad braæa žive zajedno pa umre jedan od njih bez djece, onda žena umrloga da se ne uda iz kuæe za drugoga; brat njegov neka otide k njoj i uzme je za ženu i uèini joj dužnost djeversku.
6 And it shall be, that the firstborn which she beareth shall succeed in the name of his brother which is dead, that his name be not put out of Israel.
I prvi sin kojega ona rodi neka se nazove imenom brata njegova umrloga, da ne pogine ime njegovo u Izrailju.
7 And if the man like not to take his brother’s wife, then let his brother’s wife go up to the gate unto the elders, and say, My husband’s brother refuseth to raise up unto his brother a name in Israel, he will not perform the duty of my husband’s brother.
Ako li onaj èovjek ne bi htio uzeti snahe svoje, onda snaha njegova neka doðe na vrata pred starješine, i reèe: neæe djever moj da podigne bratu svojemu sjemena u Izrailju, neæe da mi uèini dužnosti djeverske.
8 Then the elders of his city shall call him, and speak unto him: and if he stand to it, and say, I like not to take her;
Tada neka ga dozovu starješine mjesta onoga i razgovore se s njim; pa ako se on upre i reèe: neæu da je uzmem;
9 Then shall his brother’s wife come unto him in the presence of the elders, and loose his shoe from off his foot, and spit in his face, and shall answer and say, So shall it be done unto that man that will not build up his brother’s house.
Onda neka pristupi k njemu snaha njegova pred starješinama, i neka mu izuje obuæu s noge njegove i pljune mu u lice, i progovorivši neka reèe: tako valja da bude èovjeku koji neæe da zida kuæe brata svojega.
10 And his name shall be called in Israel, The house of him that hath his shoe loosed.
I on neka se zove u Izrailju: dom bosoga.
11 When men strive together one with another, and the wife of the one draweth near for to deliver her husband out of the hand of him that smiteth him, and putteth forth her hand, and taketh him by the secrets:
Ako bi se svadili ljudi, jedan s drugim, pa bi došla žena jednoga da otme muža svojega iz ruke drugoga koji ga bije, i pruživši ruku svoju uhvatila bi ga za mošnice,
12 Then thou shalt cut off her hand, thine eye shall not pity her.
Otsijeci joj ruku; neka ne žali oko tvoje.
13 Thou shalt not have in thy bag divers weights, a great and a small.
Nemoj imati u torbi svojoj dvojaku mjeru, veliku i malu.
14 Thou shalt not have in thine house divers measures, a great and a small.
Nemoj imati u kuæi svojoj dvojaku efu, veliku i malu.
15 But thou shalt have a perfect and just weight, a perfect and just measure shalt thou have: that thy days may be lengthened in the land which Yhwh thy God giveth thee.
Mjera potpuna i prava neka ti je; efa potpuna i prava neka ti je, da bi ti se produljili dani tvoji u zemlji koju ti daje Gospod Bog tvoj.
16 For all that do such things, and all that do unrighteously, are an abomination unto Yhwh thy God.
Jer je gad pred Gospodom Bogom tvojim ko god èini tako, ko god èini krivo.
17 Remember what Amalek did unto thee by the way, when ye were come forth out of Egypt;
Opominji se šta ti je uèinio Amalik na putu kad iðaste iz Misira,
18 How he met thee by the way, and smote the hindmost of thee, even all that were feeble behind thee, when thou wast faint and weary; and he feared not God.
Kako te doèeka na putu i pobi na kraju sve umorne koji iðahu za tobom, kad si bio sustao i iznemogao, i ne boja se Boga.
19 Therefore it shall be, when Yhwh thy God hath given thee rest from all thine enemies round about, in the land which Yhwh thy God giveth thee for an inheritance to possess it, that thou shalt blot out the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven; thou shalt not forget it.
Zato kad te Gospod Bog tvoj smiri od svijeh neprijatelja tvojih unaokolo u zemlji koju ti daje Gospod Bog tvoj da je naslijediš, tada zatri spomen Amaliku pod nebom; ne zaboravi.
