Levitski zakonik 17
1 Jahve reče Mojsiju:
And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,
2 “Govori Aronu, njegovim sinovima i svima Izraelcima te im reci: 'Evo što je zapovjedio Jahve:
'Speak unto Aaron, and unto his sons, and unto all the sons of Israel; and thou hast said unto them, This [is] the thing which Jehovah hath commanded, saying,
3 svaki onaj od Izraelova doma koji u taboru ili izvan tabora zakolje vola, ili ovcu, ili kozu,
Any man of the house of Israel who slaughtereth ox, or lamb, or goat, in the camp, or who slaughtereth at the outside of the camp,
4 a ne donese ih na ulaz u Šator sastanka da se prinesu na dar Jahvi pred njegovim Prebivalištem, svaki takav neka je odgovoran: prolio je krv i neka se odstrani iz svoga naroda.'
and unto the opening of the tent of meeting hath not brought it in to bring near an offering to Jehovah before the tabernacle of Jehovah, blood is reckoned to that man — blood he hath shed — and that man hath been cut off from the midst of his people;
5 Zato neka Izraelci svoje žrtve koje bi htjeli klati vani u polju dovedu na ulaz u Šator sastanka, k svećeniku, i neka ih prinose kao žrtve pričesnice.
so that the sons of Israel do bring in their sacrifices which they are sacrificing on the face of the field, yea, they have brought them in to Jehovah, unto the opening of the tent of meeting, unto the priest, and they have sacrificed sacrifices of peace-offerings to Jehovah with them.
6 Neka svećenik izlije krv po Jahvinu žrtveniku koji se nalazi na ulazu u Šator sastanka, a loj spali na ugodan miris Jahvi,
'And the priest hath sprinkled the blood upon the altar of Jehovah, at the opening of the tent of meeting, and hath made perfume with the fat for sweet fragrance to Jehovah;
7 tako da ubuduće ne prinose svojih žrtava klanica jarcima s kojima se odaju bludu. Neka je ovo trajan zakon za njih i njihove naraštaje.
and they sacrifice not any more their sacrifices to goats after which they are going a-whoring; a statute age-during is this to them, to their generations.
8 I kaži im: 'Svaki pojedinac od Izraelova doma, ili stranac koji među vama boravi, koji prinese paljenicu ili klanicu
'And unto them thou sayest: Any man of the house of Israel, or of the sojourners, who sojourneth in your midst, who causeth burnt-offering or sacrifice to ascend,
9 a ne donese je na ulaz u Šator sastanka da se prinese Jahvi, taj neka se odstrani iz svoga naroda.'”
and unto the opening of the tent of meeting doth not bring it in to make it to Jehovah — that man hath been cut off from his people.
10 “Nadalje, protiv svakoga pojedinca od Izraelova doma, a tako i protiv svakoga pridošlice među vama koji bi blagovao bilo kakvu krv, ja ću se okrenuti, svakoga tko blaguje krv odstranit ću iz njegova naroda.
'And any man of the house of Israel, or of the sojourners, who is sojourning in your midst, who eateth any blood, I have even set My face against the person who is eating the blood, and have cut him off from the midst of his people;
11 Jer je život živoga bića u krvi. Tu krv ja sam vama dao da na žrtveniku njome obavljate obred pomirenja za svoje živote. Jer krv je ono što ispašta za život.
for the life of the flesh is in the blood, and I have given it to you on the altar, to make atonement for your souls; for it [is] the blood which maketh atonement for the soul.
12 Zato sam kazao Izraelcima: neka nitko od vas ne jede krvi; neka ni stranac koji među vama bude ne jede krvi.
'Therefore I have said to the sons of Israel, No person among you doth eat blood, and the sojourner who is sojourning in your midst doth not eat blood;
13 Tko god, Izraelac ili stranac koji među vama boravi, uhvati u lovu kakvu zvijer ili pticu što se može jesti neka joj prolije krv i zatrpa zemljom.
and any man of the sons of Israel, or of the sojourners, who is sojourning in your midst, who hunteth venison, beast or fowl, which is eaten — hath even poured out its blood, and hath covered it with dust;
14 Jer život svakoga živog bića jest njegova krv. Zato sam i rekao Izraelcima: ne smijete jesti krvi ni od kakva živog bića, jer život svakoga živog bića jest njegova krv. Tko god je bude jeo, neka se odstrani.
for [it is] the life of all flesh, its blood is for its life; and I say to the sons of Israel, Blood of any flesh ye do not eat, for the life of all flesh is its blood; any one eating it is cut off.
15 Tko bi god, Izraelac ili stranac, jeo što je uginulo ili što su zvijeri rastrgale neka opere svoju odjeću, u vodi se okupa i ostane nečistim do večeri. Tada će postati čist.
'And any person who eateth a carcase or torn thing, among natives or among sojourners — hath both washed his garments, and hath bathed with water, and hath been unclean until the evening — then he hath been clean;
16 Ali ako je ne opere i ne okupa svoga tijela, neka snosi posljedice svoje krivnje.”
and if he wash not, and his flesh bathe not — then he hath borne his iniquity.'
