< Ponovljeni zakon 22 >
1 Kad vidiš kako luta vol ili ovca tvoga brata, nemoj proći mimo njih nego ih otjeraj svome bratu.
“If you see your brother’s ox or sheep wander astray, you shall not pass by. Instead, you shall lead them back to your brother.
2 Ako ti brat nije blizu ili ga ne znaš, kući ih svojoj dotjeraj pa neka ostanu kod tebe dokle brat tvoj ne dođe po njih. Tada mu ih vrati.
But if your brother is not near, or you do not know him, you shall lead them to your house, and they shall be with you until your brother seeks them and receives them.
3 Tako čini s njegovim magarcem, s njegovim ogrtačem i sa svime što brat tvoj izgubi, a ti nađeš. Nije ti dopušteno prolaziti mimo njegovo.
You shall act in a similar manner with his donkey, and his clothing, and all the belongings of your brother that have been lost. If you find it, you shall not neglect it, as if it belonged to a stranger.
4 Kad opaziš kako se magarac tvoga brata ili njegov vol svalio na putu, ne kloni se nego mu pomozi da ih podigne.
If you see that your brother’s donkey or ox has fallen along the way, you shall not disregard it. Instead, you shall lift it up with him.
5 Žena ne smije na se stavljati muške odjeće, a muškarac se ne smije oblačiti u ženske haljine. Tko bi to činio bio bi odvratan Jahvi, Bogu svome.
A woman shall not be clothed with manly apparel, nor shall a man make use of feminine apparel. For whoever does these things is abominable with God.
6 Ako putem naiđeš na ptičje gnijezdo sa ptićima ili s jajima, na stablu ili na zemlji, a majka bude ležala sa ptićima ili na jajima, nemoj uzimati majke sa ptićima:
If, as you are walking along the way, you find a bird’s nest, in a tree or on the ground, and the mother is nurturing the young or the eggs, you shall not take her with her young.
7 pusti majku na slobodu, a ptiće uzmi. Tako ćeš imati sreću i dug život.
Instead, you shall permit her to go, retaining the young that you have caught, so that it may be well with you, and you may live for a long time.
8 Kad gradiš novu kuću, na krovu načini ogradu da svoju kuću, kad bi tko s nje pao, ne okaljaš krvlju.
When you build a new house, you shall make a wall around the roof. Otherwise, someone may slip and fall down violently, and so blood would be shed at your house, and you would be guilty.
9 Po svome vinogradu nemoj sijati drugog usjeva da ne bi bila posvećena čitava ljetina: i plod sjemena i rod vinograda.
You shall not sow your vineyard with another seed, lest both the seed that you have sown and what springs forth from the vineyard be sanctified together.
10 Ne upreži u plug vola i magarca zajedno.
You shall not till with an ox and a donkey at the same time.
11 Ne oblači se u tkaninu otkanu od vune i lana zajedno.
You shall not wear a vestment which has been woven from both wool and linen.
12 Na četiri roglja ogrtača kojim se zaogrćeš napravi rese.
You shall make strings along the hem, at the four corners of your cloak, which covers you.
13 Ako koji čovjek uzme ženu i uđe k njoj, ali je potom zamrzi,
If a man takes a wife, and afterwards he has hatred for her,
14 pripiše joj ružnoće i ozloglasi je govoreći: 'Oženih se njome, ali kad joj priđoh, ne nađoh u nje znakova djevičanstva' -
and so he seeks opportunities to dismiss her, imputing a very wicked name to her by saying, ‘I received this woman as a wife, and upon entering to her, I found her not to be a virgin,’
15 neka tada djevojčin otac i majka uzmu dokaz djevojčina djevičanstva te ga iznesu pred gradske starješine na vrata.
then her father and mother shall take her, and they shall bring with them the signs of her virginity, to the elders of the city who are at the gate.
16 Potom neka progovori starješinama djevojčin otac: 'Ovome sam čovjeku dao svoju kćer za ženu, ali mu je omrzla.
And the father shall say: ‘I gave my daughter to this man as a wife. And because he hates her,
17 Stoga joj pripisuje svašta ružno i tvrdi: nisam u tvoje kćeri našao znakove djevičanstva. Ali evo djevičanskih znakova moje kćeri!' I neka razastru plahtu pred gradskim starješinama.
he accuses her with a very wicked name, by saying: “I did not find your daughter to be a virgin.” But behold, these are the signs of my daughter’s virginity.’ And they shall spread the clothing before the elders of the city.
18 Neka tada starješine onoga grada uzmu muža pa ga kazne;
And the elders of that city shall apprehend that man and beat him.
19 neka ga, zato što je pronio ružan glas o jednoj izraelskoj djevici, udare globom od stotinu srebrnika pa ih dadnu ocu mlade žene. I neka mu ona i dalje bude ženom da je ne može pustiti dok je živ.
Moreover, they shall fine him one hundred shekels of silver, which he will give to the father of the girl, because he has committed slander, with a very wicked name, against a virgin of Israel. And he shall have her as a wife, and he cannot dismiss her throughout all the days of his life.
20 Ali ako optužba - da se na mladoj ženi nije našlo djevičanstvo - bude istinita,
But if what he has claimed is true and virginity is not found in the girl,
21 neka djevojku izvedu na kućna vrata njezina oca pa neka je ljudi njezina grada kamenjem zasiplju dok ne umre, jer je počinila besramnost u Izraelu odajući se bludu u očevu domu. Tako ćeš iskorijeniti zlo iz svoje sredine.
then they shall throw her down, outside the doors of her father’s house, and the men of that city shall stone her to death, and she shall die. For she has acted wickedly in Israel, in that she fornicated in her father’s house. And so shall you take away the evil from your midst.
22 Ako se koji čovjek zateče gdje leži sa ženom udatom za drugoga, neka oboje - i čovjek koji je ležao sa ženom i sama žena - budu smaknuti. Tako ćeš iskorijeniti zlo iz Izraela.
If a man sleeps with the wife of another, then they shall both die, that is, the adulterer and the adulteress. And so shall you take away the evil from Israel.
23 Ako mladu djevicu zaručenu za nekoga u gradu sretne drugi čovjek i s njom legne,
If a man has betrothed a girl who is a virgin, and if someone finds her in the city and he lies with her,
24 oboje ih dovedite vratima toga grada pa ih kamenjem zasipljite dok ne umru: djevojku što nije zvala u pomoć u gradu, a čovjeka što je oskvrnuo ženu bližnjega svoga. Tako ćeš iskorijeniti zlo iz svoje sredine.
then you shall lead them both out to the gate of that city, and they shall be stoned to death: the girl, because she did not cry out though she was in the city; the man, because he has humiliated the wife of his neighbor. And so shall you take away the evil from your midst.
25 Ako čovjek u polju naiđe na zaručenu djevojku i silom legne s njom, onda neka se pogubi samo taj što je s njom legao;
But if a man discovers, in the countryside, a girl who has been betrothed, and, apprehending her, he lies with her, then he alone shall die.
26 a djevojci nemoj ništa: nema na njoj krivnje kojom bi zasluživala smrt. Jer to je kao da navali tko na bližnjega svoga i ubije ga.
The girl shall suffer nothing, nor is she guilty unto death. For just as a robber rises up against his brother and slays his life, so also did the girl suffer greatly.
27 On ju je zatekao u polju; i premda je zaručena djevojka zapomagala, nije bilo nikoga da joj priskoči u pomoć.
She was alone in the field. She cried out, and there was no one nearby, who might deliver her.
28 Ako čovjek naiđe na mladu djevicu koja nije zaručena te je pograbi i s njom legne, pa budu uhvaćeni na djelu,
If a man finds a girl who is a virgin, who does not have a betrothal, and, taking her, he lies with her, and the matter is brought to judgment,
29 tada čovjek koji je s njom ležao neka djevojčinu ocu dade pedeset srebrnika. A budući da ju je oskvrnuo, neka je uzme za ženu da je ne može pustiti dok je živ.
then he who slept with her shall give to the father of the girl fifty shekels of silver, and he shall have her as a wife, because he has humiliated her. He cannot dismiss her, throughout all the days of his life.
30 Neka se nitko ne ženi ženom oca svoga i neka ne odgrće očeva pokrivača.
No man shall take his father’s wife, nor remove her covering.”
