Numbers 19
1 And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying:
Jahve reče Mojsiju i Aronu:
2 This is the observance of the victim, which the Lord hath ordained. Command the children of Israel, that they bring unto thee a red cow of full age, in which there is no blemish, and which hath not carried the yoke:
“Ovo je zakonska odredba što ju je Jahve naredio: Reci Izraelcima neka ti dovedu crvenu junicu, zdravu, na kojoj nema mane i na koju još nije stavljan jaram.
3 And you shall deliver her to Eleazar the priest, who shall bring her forth without the camp, and shall immolate her in the sight of all:
A vi je predajte svećeniku Eleazaru. Neka se zatim izvede izvan tabora i zakolje pred njim.
4 And dipping his finger in her blood, shall sprinkle it over against the door of the tabernacle seven times,
Svećenik Eleazar neka uzme njezine krvi na svoj prst pa njome poškropi sedam puta prema pročelju Šatora sastanka.
5 And shall burn her in the sight of all, delivering up to the fire her skin, and her flesh, and her blood, and her dung.
Neka se onda junica spali na njegove oči; neka joj se spale: koža, meso, krv i nečist.
6 The priest shall also take cedar wood, and hyssop, and scarlet twice dyed, and cast it into the flame, with which the cow is consumed.
Potom neka svećenik uzme cedrovine, izopa i crvenoga prediva pa ih baci usred vatre gdje se krava spaljuje.
7 And then after washing his garments, and body, he shall enter into the camp, and shall be unclean until the evening.
Neka svećenik opere svoju odjeću, a svoje tijelo u vodi okupa. Poslije toga neka se svećenik vrati u tabor, ali neka je nečist do večeri.
8 He also that hath burned her, shall wash his garments, and his body, and shall be unclean until the evening.
I onaj koji ju je spaljivao neka svoju odjeću opere i okupa svoje tijelo u vodi te bude nečist do večeri.
9 And a man that is clean shall gather up the ashes of the cow, and shall pour them forth without the camp in a most clean place, that they may be reserved for the multitude of the children of Israel, and for a water of aspersion: because the cow was burnt for sin.
A jedan čist čovjek neka pokupi pepeo od junice pa ga pohrani izvan tabora na čisto mjesto da se čuva izraelskoj zajednici za vodu očišćenja. To je žrtva okajnica.
10 And when he that carried the ashes of the cow, hath washed his garments, he shall be unclean until the evening. The children of Israel, and the strangers that dwell among them, shall observe this for a holy thing by a perpetual ordinance.
I onaj koji skupi pepeo od junice neka opere svoju odjeću i bude nečist do večeri. Neka to bude trajan zakon i za Izraelce i za stranca koji među njima boravi.”
11 He that toucheth the corpse of a man, and is therefore unclean seven days,
“Tko se dotakne mrtva ljudskog tijela neka je nečist sedam dana.
12 Shall be sprinkled with this water on the third day, and on the seventh, and so shall be cleansed. If he were not sprinkled on the third day, he cannot be cleansed on the seventh.
Takav neka se opere tom vodom trećega dana i sedmoga dana pa će biti čist. Ako se ne opere trećega dana i sedmoga dana, neće biti čist.
13 Every one that toucheth the corpse of a man, and is not sprinkled with mixture, shall profane the tabernacle of the Lord, and shall perish out of Israel: because he was not sprinkled with the water of expiation, he shall be unclean, and his uncleanness shall remain upon him.
Tko se dotakne mrtvaca, tijela preminula čovjeka, a ne opere se, oskvrnjuje Jahvino prebivalište. Takav neka se iskorijeni iz Izraela. Budući da vodom za očišćenje nije bio poliven, nečist je; njegova je nečistoća još na njemu.”
14 This is the law of a mall that dieth in a tent: All that go into his tent and all the vessels that are there, shall be unclean seven days.
“Ovo je zakon kad koji čovjek umre u šatoru; tko god uđe u šator i tko god bude u šatoru neka je nečist sedam dana.
15 The vessel that hath no cover, nor binding over it, shall be unclean.
Svaka otvorena posuda koja ne bude zatvorena poklopcem neka je nečista.
16 If any man in the field touch the corpse of a man that was slain, or that died of himself, or his bone, or his grave, he shall be unclean seven days.
A na otvorenu polju tko se god dotakne poginuloga od mača, ili mrtvaca, ili ljudskih kostiju, ili groba neka je nečist sedam dana.
17 And they shall take of the ashes of the burning and of the sin offering, and shall pour living waters upon them into a vessel.
Neka se za onoga koji se onečistio uzme pepela od životinje spaljene za okajnicu i na nj, u kakvu sudu, nalije žive vode.
18 And a man that is clean shall dip hyssop in them, and shall sprinkle therewith all the tent, and all the furniture, and the men that are defiled with touching any such thing:
Onda neka čist čovjek uzme izopa, zamoči ga u vodu te poškropi po šatoru, po svemu posuđu, po ljudima koji su tu bili, po onome koji se dotakao kostiju, ili ubijenoga, ili preminuloga, ili groba.
19 And in this manner he that is clean shall purify the unclean on the third and on the seventh day. And being expiated the seventh day, he shall wash both himself and his garments, and be unclean until the evening.
Neka čisti čovjek škropi nečistoga trećega i sedmoga dana. Tako će ga na sedmi dan očistiti. Taj onda neka opere svoju odjeću, okupa se u vodi i neka je navečer čist.
20 If any man be not expiated after this rite, his soul shall perish out of the midst of the church: because he hath profaned the sanctuary of the Lord, and was not sprinkled with the water of purification.
A bude li tko nečist pa se ne očisti, neka se iskorijeni iz zajednice, jer je oskvrnuo Jahvino svetište; vodom za očišćenje nije bio poliven; nečist je!
21 This precept shall be an ordinance for ever. He also that sprinkled the water, shall wash his garments. Every one that shall touch the waters of expiation, shall be unclean until the evening.
Neka im i ovo bude trajnim zakonom: i onaj koji je škropio vodom za očišćenje neka opere svoju odjeću; i onaj koji je dirnuo vodu za očišćenje neka je nečist do večeri.
22 Whatsoever a person toucheth who is unclean, he shall make it unclean: and the person that toucheth any of these things, shall be unclean until the evening.
Čega se god nečisti dotakne neka je nečisto; a osoba koja se njega dotakne neka je nečista do večeri.”
