Levitski zakonik 23
1 Jahve reče Mojsiju:
Yahweh said to Moses/me,
2 “Kaži Izraelcima i reci im: Blagdani Jahvini koje imate sazivati jesu sveti zborovi. Ovo su moji blagdani:
“Tell the Israeli people about the festivals that I have chosen, the days when you all must gather together [to worship me].”
3 Šest dana neka se posao obavlja, a sedmi je dan subota - dan potpunog odmora, dan svetoga zbora, kad ne smijete raditi nikakva posla. Gdje god boravili, subota je Jahvina.”
“You may work for six days [each week], but on the seventh day you must not do any work. You must rest. It is a sacred/holy day when you must gather together [to worship me]. Wherever you live, you must rest on that day.”
4 “A ovo su blagdani Jahvini - sveti zborovi - koje imate proglasiti u njihovo određeno vrijeme:
“There are festivals that I have established for you. Those will also be sacred/holy days when you must gather together [to worship me].
5 U prvom mjesecu četrnaestoga dana u suton jest Pasha u čast Jahvi;
[The first festival is] (the Passover/when you remember that I spared your ancestors when I killed all the firstborn Egyptian sons). That festival will begin at twilight/dusk/sunset on the chosen day (each spring/in March or April each year), [and end on the following day].
6 petnaestoga dana toga mjeseca jest Blagdan beskvasnih kruhova u čast Jahvi - sedam dana jedite beskvasan kruh.
The next day, the Festival of Eating Bread That Has No Yeast will begin. That festival will continue for seven days. During that time, the bread that you eat must be made without yeast.
7 Prvoga dana neka vam bude sveti zbor; nikakva težačkog posla nemojte raditi.
On the first day of that festival, you all must stop your regular work and you must gather together [to worship me].
8 Sedam dana prinosite paljenu žrtvu u čast Jahvi, a sedmoga dana neka opet bude sveti zbor; nikakva težačkog posla ne radite.”
On each of the seven days, you must present to me [several animals to be] an offering/sacrifice to be completely burned [on the altar]. On the seventh day, you all must again stop your regular work and gather to worship me.”
9 Jahve reče Mojsiju:
Yahweh also told Moses/me
10 “Kaži Izraelcima i reci im: 'Kad uđete u zemlju koju vam dajem i u njoj žetvu požanjete, prvi snop svoje žetve donesite svećeniku.
to tell the Israeli people [about other festivals]. He said, “When you arrive in the land which I am giving to you, and you harvest your crops [for the first time] there, bring to the priest some of the first grain that you harvest.
11 Neka ga on prinese kao žrtvu prikaznicu pred Jahvom da budete primljeni. Sutradan po suboti neka ga svećenik prinese kao žrtvu prikaznicu.
On the day after the [next] Sabbath/rest day, the priest will lift it up [high to dedicate it] to me, in order that I will accept it as your [gift].
12 A u dan kad budete prinosili snop kao žrtvu prikaznicu, prinesite Jahvi jednogodišnjeg janjca bez mane kao žrtvu paljenicu.
That same day, you must sacrifice to me a one-year-old male lamb that has no defects. You must burn it [on the altar].
13 Uz to žrtva prinosnica neka bude: dvije desetine efe najboljeg brašna zamiješena u ulju, kao paljena žrtva Jahvi na ugodan miris; a s njom ljevanica od vina neka bude četvrt hina.
You must also burn an offering of grain. That offering must consist of (three quarts/3.5 liters) of good flour mixed with [olive] oil. The smell [of those things burning] will be very pleasing to me. Along with that, you must also offer one quart/liter of wine, which will be a liquid offering.
14 Prije toga dana - dok ne donesete prinose svoga Boga - ne smijete jesti ni kruha, ni pržena zrnja, ni svježa klasja. To je trajan zakon za vaše naraštaje gdje god vi boravili.'”
Do not eat any bread or any roasted grain or unroasted grain on that day until after you have brought those offerings to me, your God. You must always obey [LIT] those commands, wherever you live.”
15 “A počevši od sutrašnjega dana po suboti - dana u koji donesete snop za žrtvu prikaznicu - nabrojte punih sedam tjedana.
“Seven weeks after the priest offers that grain to me,
16 Onda na dan po sedmoj suboti, na Pedesetnicu, prinesite Jahvi novu žrtvu.
on the next/50th day after he offers it, [each family] must bring to me an offering from the new crop of grain.
17 Donesite iz svojih stanova po dva kruha za žrtvu prikaznicu. Neka svaki bude od dvije desetine efe najboljeg brašna; neka budu ispečeni ukvas, kao prvine Jahvi.
From your homes, bring two loaves of bread [to the priest]. He will lift them up [high to dedicate them] as an offering to me. Those loaves must be baked from three quarts/liters of good flour that has yeast mixed with it. That bread will be an offering to me from the first wheat that you harvest [each year].
18 S kruhom prinesite sedam jednogodišnjih janjaca bez mane, jednoga junca i dva ovna kao žrtvu paljenicu Jahvi zajedno sa žrtvom prinosnicom i ljevanicom, žrtvom paljenom na ugodan miris Jahvi.
Along with this bread, you must present to me seven one-year-old lambs with no defects, one young bull, and two rams. They must all be completely burned [on the altar]. All those offerings, with the grain offering and the wine offering, will be burned, and the smell [of all those things burning] will be very pleasing to me.
19 Prinesite i jednoga jarca kao žrtvu okajnicu, a dva janjca od godine dana za žrtvu pričesnicu.
Then you must also kill one male goat to be an offering/sacrifice for your sins, and two one-year-old male lambs to be an offering to enable you to maintain fellowship with me.
20 Neka ih svećenik prinese pred Jahvom kao žrtvu prikaznicu povrh kruha od prvina. Uz oba janjca, i ovo je Jahvi sveto i neka pripadne svećeniku.
The priest will lift up these offerings [high to dedicate them] to me. He will also offer the loaves of bread that were baked from the first wheat that you harvest. Those offerings are sacred to me, but they are for the priests [to eat].
21 Toga istog dana sazovite zbor. Neka vam to bude posvećen zbor - nikakva težačkog posla ne radite. To je trajan zakon za vaše naraštaje gdje god vi boravili.
On that day, you must stop your regular work and gather to worship me. You must always obey those instructions/commands, and you must obey them wherever you live.
22 Kad budete želi žetvu sa svoje zemlje, nemoj žeti dokraja svoje njive niti pabirčiti poslije svoje žetve. Ostavi to sirotinji i strancu. Ja sam Jahve, Bog vaš.”
“When you harvest the grain in your fields, do not harvest the grain along the edges of the fields, and do not pick up the grain that the harvesters drop. Leave that grain for the poor people and for the foreigners who are living among you. [Do not forget that it is] I, Yahweh your God, [who am commanding those things]!”
23 Jahve reče Mojsiju:
Yahweh also told Moses/me
24 “Govori Izraelcima i reci: 'Sedmoga mjeseca, prvoga dana u mjesecu, neka vam je potpun odmor, proglašen glasom trube, sveti zbor.
to give these instructions/commands to the Israeli people: “[Each year] in September, on the day that I have chosen, you all must celebrate it by completely resting. You must not do any work on that day. When [the priests] blow their trumpets loudly, you all must gather together to worship me.
25 Nikakva teškog posla ne radite; u čast Jahvi paljenu žrtvu prinesite.'”
All of you must not do your regular work on that day. Instead, you must present offerings to me that will be burned [on the altar].”
26 Reče Jahve Mojsiju:
Yahweh also said to Moses/me,
27 “Povrh toga, u deseti dan toga sedmog mjeseca pada Dan pomirenja. Neka vam to bude prigoda za sveti zbor; postite i prinesite u čast Jahvi paljenu žrtvu.
“You must celebrate a day [on which you request that I] forgive you for the sins that you have committed. That day will be nine days after the festival [when the priests blow] the trumpets. On that day you must (fast/abstain from eating food). You must gather together to worship me and present offerings to me that will be burned [on the altar].
28 Toga dana nemojte raditi nikakva posla. To je, naime, Dan pomirenja, kada će se za vas obaviti obred pomirenja pred Jahvom, Bogom vašim.
You must not do any work on that day, because it is the day when the priests will offer sacrifices to me to (atone for/ask me to forgive) your sins.
29 Jest, tko god ne bude postio toga dana, neka se odstrani iz svoga naroda.
You must expel from your group anyone who does not (fast/abstain from eating food) on that day.
30 A tko bi god radio kakav posao na taj dan, toga ću ja istrijebiti iz njegova naroda.
I will get rid of anyone who does any kind of work on that day.
31 Nikakva posla nemojte raditi. To je trajan zakon za vaše naraštaje gdje god vi boravili.
You must not work at all! You must always obey those instructions/commands, and you must obey them wherever you live.
32 Neka vam je to subotnji počinak. Postite! Navečer devetoga dana u mjesecu - od večeri do večeri - prestanite raditi.”
That day will be a day of complete rest for all of you, and on that day you must (fast/abstain from eating food) [to show that you are sorry for having sinned]. That day of rest and (fasting/abstaining from eating food) will begin on the evening before the day in which you ask me to forgive you for your sins, and it will end on the evening of the following day.”
33 Jahve reče Mojsiju:
Yahweh also said to Moses/me,
34 “Reci Izraelcima: 'Od petnaestoga dana toga sedmog mjeseca neka se sedam dana drži Blagdan sjenica u čast Jahvi.
“Tell the Israeli people that [each year] they must also celebrate a festival of living in temporary shelters. That festival will begin five days after the day in which they request me to forgive them for their sins. It will last for seven days.
35 Prvoga dana, u dan svetoga zbora, nikakva težačkog posla nemojte raditi.
On the first day of that festival, the people must gather together to worship me, and they must not do any regular work on that day.
36 Sedam dana prinosite paljenu žrtvu u čast Jahvi. Osmi dan neka vam bude sveti zbor, kada ćete u čast Jahvi prinijeti paljenu žrtvu. To je svečani zbor; nikakva težačkog posla nemojte obavljati.'”
On each of the seven days of the festival, they must present to me an offering [of animals] that will be burned [on the altar]. On the next day, they must gather again to worship me and present to me another animal that will be burned [on the altar]. That also will be a sacred gathering, and they must not work on that day, either.
37 “To su blagdani Jahvini koje imate sazvati - sveti zborovi određeni za prinošenje žrtava u čast Jahvi; žrtava paljenica, prinosnica, žrtava klanica i ljevanica; svaku na njezin pravi dan,
“[To summarize], those are the festivals that I have appointed. Celebrate those sacred festivals by gathering together to present to me all the various offerings that will be burned [on the altar]—animals that will be burned completely, and offerings of grain, and offerings to enable the Israeli people to maintain fellowship with me, and offerings of wine. Each offering must be brought on the day that I have indicated.
38 povrh Jahvinih subota, povrh vlastitih prinosa, povrh svojih zavjetnih i dragovoljnih darova koje inače prinosite Jahvi.”
(Those festivals must be celebrated/You must celebrate those festivals) in addition to [worshiping on] the (Sabbath days/days of rest). And all those offerings must be given in addition to the offerings that people personally decide to give, and in addition to the offerings that people make to accompany the solemn promises that they have made, or offerings that people make (voluntarily/because they themselves want to).
39 “Osim toga, petnaestoga dana mjeseca sedmoga, pošto pokupite sa zemlje plodove, svetkujte Jahvin blagdan sedam dana. Na prvi dan i na osmi dan neka je potpun počinak.
“[Returning to my instructions about] the Festival of Living in Temporary Shelters, you must celebrate this festival after you have harvested all the crops. On the first day and on the last day of that festival, you must rest completely.
40 Uzmite već prvoga dana lijepih plodova, palmovih grana, grančica s lisnatih drveta i potočne vrbovine pa se veselite u nazočnosti Jahve, Boga svoga, sedam dana.
But on the first day, you are permitted to pick fruit from trees. Cut palm fronds/branches and other leafy branches from trees or from bushes that grow by the streams, [and make shelters/huts to live in for that week]. Then rejoice in my presence for those seven days.
41 Svetkujte tako blagdan u čast Jahvi sedam dana svake godine. Neka je to trajan zakon za vaše naraštaje. Svetkujte taj blagdan sedmoga mjeseca.
You must celebrate this festival for seven days every year. You must never stop obeying my commands/instructions for that festival. You must celebrate it in September.
42 Sedam dana stanujte u sjenicama. Svi Izraelovi domoroci neka proborave u sjenicama,
During the seven days of that festival, all of you people who have been Israelis your entire lives must live in shelters/huts.
43 da vaši potomci znaju kako sam ja učinio da Izraelci žive u sjenicama kad sam ih izbavio iz zemlje egipatske. Ja sam Jahve, Bog vaš.”
That will remind your descendants that their ancestors lived in shelters [for many years] after I rescued them from Egypt. [Do not forget that] I, Yahweh your God, [am the one who is commanding this].”
44 I tako Mojsije objavi Izraelcima Jahvine blagdane.
So Moses/I gave to the Israeli people all those instructions concerning the festivals that Yahweh [wanted them to celebrate] each year.
