Ponovljeni zakon 26
1 Kad stigneš u zemlju koju ti Jahve, Bog tvoj, daje u baštinu, kad je zaposjedneš i u njoj se nastaniš,
“And it has been, when you come into the land which your God YHWH is giving to you [for] an inheritance, and you have possessed it and dwelt in it,
2 uzmi nešto prvina od svakoga ploda što ga budeš dobivao od zemlje koju ti Jahve, Bog tvoj, daje: stavi ih u košaru, otiđi u mjesto što ga Jahve, Bog tvoj, odabere da u njemu nastani svoje ime.
that you have taken from the first of all the fruits of the ground, which you bring in out of your land which your God YHWH is giving to you, and have put [it] in a basket, and gone to the place which your God YHWH chooses to cause His Name to dwell there.
3 Stupi k svećeniku koji bude tada vršio službu i reci: 'Priznajem danas pred Jahvom, Bogom svojim, da sam stigao u zemlju za koju se Jahve zakleo našim ocima da će je nama dati.'
And you have come to the priest who is in those days, and have said to him, I have declared to your God YHWH today that I have come into the land which YHWH has sworn to our fathers to give to us;
4 Zatim će svećenik uzeti iz tvoje ruke košaru i položiti je pred žrtvenik Jahve, Boga tvoga.
and the priest has taken the basket out of your hand and placed it before the altar of your God YHWH.
5 Ti onda nastavi i reci pred Jahvom, Bogom svojim: 'Moj je otac bio aramejski lutalac koji je sa malo čeljadi sišao u Egipat da se skloni. Ali je ondje postao velikim, brojnim i moćnim narodom.
And you have answered and said before your God YHWH, My father [is] a perishing Aramean! And he goes down to Egypt, and sojourns there with few men, and becomes a great, mighty, and populous nation there;
6 Egipćani su s nama postupali loše; tlačili su nas i nametnuli nam teško ropstvo.
and the Egyptians do us evil, and afflict us, and put hard service on us;
7 Vapili smo Jahvi, Bogu otaca svojih. Jahve je čuo vapaj naš; vidje naš jad, našu nevolju i našu muku.
and we cry to YHWH, God of our fathers, and YHWH hears our voice, and sees our affliction, and our labor, and our oppression;
8 Iz Egipta nas izvede Jahve moćnom rukom i ispruženom mišicom, velikom strahotom, znakovima i čudesima.
and YHWH brings us out from Egypt by a strong hand, and by an outstretched arm, and by great fear, and by signs, and by wonders,
9 I dovede nas na ovo mjesto i dade nam ovu zemlju, zemlju kojom teče med i mlijeko.
and He brings us to this place, and gives this land to us—a land flowing with milk and honey.
10 I sad, evo, donosim prvine plodova sa tla što si mi ga, Jahve, dao.' Stavi ih pred Jahvu, Boga svoga, i pred Jahvom, Bogom svojim, duboko se nakloni.
And now, behold, I have brought in the first of the fruits of the ground which you have given to me, O YHWH. (And you have placed it before your God YHWH, and bowed yourself before your God YHWH,
11 A onda zajedno s levitom i došljakom koji bude kod tebe uživaj sva dobra kojima je Jahve, Bog tvoj, obasuo tebe i dom tvoj.
and rejoiced in all the good which your God YHWH has given to you and to your house—you, and the Levite, and the sojourner who [is] in your midst.)
12 A kad treće godine - godine desetine - završiš odjeljivanje sve desetine od svoga prihoda i dadeš levitu, došljaku, siroti i udovici po tvojim gradovima da jedu do sitosti,
When you complete to tithe all the tithe of your increase in the third year, the year of the tithe, then you have given to the Levite, to the sojourner, to the fatherless, and to the widow, and they have eaten within your gates and been satisfied,
13 tada pred Jahvom, Bogom svojim, izjavi: 'Iz kuće sam uklonio ono što je bilo posvećeno. Dao sam još i levitu, došljaku, siroti i udovici, prema svim tvojim zapovijedima koje si mi izdao. Ni jedne tvoje zapovijedi nisam prekršio ni zaboravio.
and you have said before your God YHWH, I have put away the separated thing out of the house, and have also given it to the Levite, and to the sojourner, and to the orphan, and to the widow, according to all Your command which You have commanded me; I have not passed over from Your commands, nor have I forgotten.
14 Od toga nisam ništa jeo u žalosti; od toga nisam ništa žrtvovao u nečistoći, niti sam od toga što dao mrtvacu; slušao sam glas Jahve, Boga svoga; u svemu sam učinio kako si mi naredio.
I have not eaten of it in my affliction, nor have I put away of it for uncleanness, nor have I given of it for the dead; I have listened to the voice of my God YHWH; I have done according to all that You have commanded me;
15 Pogledaj s nebesa, iz svoga svetog prebivališta, i blagoslovi narod svoj izraelski i zemlju koju si nam dao, zemlju kojom teče med i mlijeko - kako si se zakleo ocima našim.'
look from Your holy habitation, from the heavens, and bless Your people Israel and the ground which You have given to us, as You have sworn to our fathers—a land flowing [with] milk and honey.
16 Jahve, Bog tvoj, naređuje ti danas da vršiš ove zakone i uredbe. Drži ih, dakle, i vrši svim srcem svojim i svom dušom svojom.
This day your God YHWH is commanding you to do these statutes and judgments; and you have listened and done them with all your heart and with all your soul.
17 Danas si ugovorio s Jahvom da će ti on biti Bog, a ti da ćeš ići njegovim putovima, držati njegove zakone, njegove zapovijedi i njegove uredbe i slušati njegov glas.
Today you have proclaimed YHWH to be to you for God, that [you are] to walk in His ways, and to keep His statutes, and His commands, and His judgments, and to listen to His voice.
18 Danas je Jahve ugovorio s tobom da ćeš ti biti njegov narod, njegova predraga svojina, kako ti je obećao, i da ćeš držati sve njegove zapovijedi.
And today YHWH has proclaimed you to be to Him for a people, a peculiar treasure, as He has spoken to you, that [you are] to keep all His commands,
19 On će te uzvisiti čašću, imenom i slavom nad sve narode koje je stvorio; i ti ćeš biti narod posvećen Jahvi, Bogu svome, kako ti je rekao.”
so as to make you highest above all the nations whom He has made for a praise, and for a name, and for beauty, and for your being a holy people to your God YHWH, as He has spoken.”
