Deuteronomy 24
1 When a man hath taken a wife, and married her, and it shall come to pass that she findeth no favour in his eyes, because he hath found some uncleanness in her: then let him write her a bill of divorcement, and give it in her hand, and send her out of his house.
Kada tko uzme ženu i s njome postupi kao muž, a potom na njoj otkrije što ružno te ona više ne nalazi milosti u njegovim očima i on joj napiše otpusno pismo, uruči joj ga i potjera je iz svoje kuće,
2 And when she hath departed from his house, she may go and be another man’s wife.
a ona izađe iz njegove kuće, ode i pođe za drugoga
3 And if the latter husband shall hate her, and write her a bill of divorcement, and give it in her hand, and send her out of his house; or if the latter husband shall die, who took her to be his wife;
pa omrzne i tome drugomu te joj i on napiše otpusno pismo, uruči joj ga i otjera je iz svoje kuće - ili pak umre taj koji ju je drugi uzeo -
4 Her former husband, who sent her away, may not take her again to be his wife, after that she is defiled; for that is abomination before the LORD: and thou shalt not cause the land to sin, which the LORD thy God giveth thee for an inheritance.
tada je, pošto se tako oskvrnula, ne može opet uzeti za ženu onaj prvi muž koji je bijaše otpustio. Bilo bi to odvratno pred Jahvom; ne smiješ uvaljivati u grijeh zemlju koju ti Jahve, Bog tvoj, daje u baštinu.
5 When a man hath newly taken a wife, he shall not go out to war, neither shall he be charged with any business: but he shall be free at home one year, and shall cheer his wife whom he hath taken.
Kad se tko netom oženi, neka ne ide u vojsku; neka mu se ne dodjeljuje nikakva služba, nego, oslobođen, neka ostane kod kuće godinu dana da razveseljuje ženu koju je doveo.
6 No man shall take the lower or the upper millstone for a pledge: for he taketh a man’s life for a pledge.
Neka se ne uzima u zalog žrvanj, ni gornji ni donji: tÓa time bi se u zalog uzimao sam život.
7 If a man shall be found stealing from any of his brethren of the children of Israel, and shall make merchandise of him, or sell him; then that thief shall die; and thou shalt remove evil from among you.
Ako se nađe tko da otme koga između svoje braće Izraelaca te postupi s njim kao s robom ili ga proda, taj otmičar neka se smakne! Tako ćeš iskorijeniti zlo iz svoje sredine.
8 Take heed in the plague of leprosy, that thou observe diligently, and do according to all that the priests the Levites shall teach you: as I commanded them, so ye shall observe to do.
Javi li se guba, pazi da brižno držiš i vršiš sve što vas pouče levitski svećenici. Držite i vršite što njima naredim.
9 Remember what the LORD thy God did to Miriam by the way, after that ye had come forth from Egypt.
Sjećaj se što je Jahve, Bog tvoj, učinio Mirjami na putu kad ste izišli iz Egipta.
10 When thou dost lend thy brother any thing, thou shalt not go into his house to take his pledge.
Kada bližnjemu svome daješ bilo kakav zajam, nemoj ulaziti u njegovu kuću da mu uzmeš zalog.
11 Thou shalt stand outside, and the man to whom thou dost lend shall bring out the pledge outside to thee.
Stoj vani, a čovjek komu si dao zajam neka ti iznese zalog van.
12 And if the man is poor, thou shalt not sleep with his pledge:
A ako on bude siromah, nemoj lijegati s njegovim zalogom;
13 In any case thou shalt deliver to him the pledge again when the sun goeth down, that he may sleep in his own raiment, and bless thee: and it shall be righteousness to thee before the LORD thy God.
o zalasku sunca moraš mu vratiti zalog da on mogne spavati u svome ogrtaču i tebe blagoslivljati. To će ti biti dobro djelo pred Jahvom, Bogom tvojim.
14 Thou shalt not oppress an hired servant that is poor and needy, whether he is of thy brethren, or of thy strangers that are in thy land within thy gates:
Nemoj zakidati jadnoga i bijednog najamnika, bio on tvoj sunarodnjak ili došljak iz kojega grada u tvojoj zemlji.
15 At his day thou shalt give him his hire, neither shall the sun go down upon it; for he is poor, and setteth his heart upon it: lest he should cry against thee to the LORD, and it be sin to thee.
Svaki dan daj mu zaradu prije nego sunce zađe, jer je siromah i za njom uzdiše. Tako neće na te vapiti Jahvi i nećeš sagriješiti.
16 The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, neither shall the children be put to death for the fathers: every man shall be put to death for his own sin.
Neka se očevi ne osuđuju na smrt zbog sinova ni sinovi zbog očeva; neka svatko za svoj grijeh gine.
17 Thou shalt not pervert the judgment of the stranger, nor of the fatherless; nor take a widow’s raiment for a pledge:
Ne izvrći pravice došljaku ni siroti i ne uzimaj u zalog haljine udovici.
18 But thou shalt remember that thou wast a slave in Egypt, and the LORD thy God redeemed thee from there: therefore I command thee to do this thing.
Sjećaj se da si bio rob u Egiptu i da te odande izbavio Jahve, Bog tvoj; zato ti nalažem da ovu zapovijed vršiš.
19 When thou cuttest down thy harvest in thy field, and hast forgot a sheaf in the field, thou shalt not go again to fetch it: it shall be for the stranger, for the fatherless, and for the widow: that the LORD thy God may bless thee in all the work of thy hands.
Kad žanješ žito na svojoj njivi pa zaboraviš koji snop na njivi, ne vraćaj se po nj; neka ostane došljaku, siroti i udovici da te Jahve, Bog tvoj, blagoslovi u svakom pothvatu ruku tvojih.
20 When thou beatest thy olive tree, thou shalt not go over the boughs again: it shall be for the stranger, for the fatherless, and for the widow.
Kad jednom omlatiš svoje masline, više iza sebe ne pretražuj; neka to ostane došljaku, siroti i udovici.
21 When thou gatherest the grapes of thy vineyard, thou shalt not glean it afterward: it shall be for the stranger, for the fatherless, and for the widow.
Kad obereš svoj vinograd, ne paljetkuj iza sebe; neka to bude za došljaka, sirotu i udovicu.
22 And thou shalt remember that thou wast a slave in the land of Egypt: therefore I command thee to do this thing.
Sjećaj se kako si bio rob u zemlji egipatskoj; zato ti naređujem da ovu zapovijed vršiš.
