5 Mojžišova 25
1 Vznikla-li by jaká nesnáz mezi některými, a přistoupili by k soudu, aby je rozsoudili, tedy spravedlivého ospravedlní, a nepravého odsoudí.
“If [two] Israelis have a dispute and they go to a court, the judge will [probably] decide/declare that one of them (is innocent/did not do any wrong) and the other one is guilty.
2 Bude-li pak hoden mrskání nepravý, tedy káže ho položiti soudce a mrskati před sebou, vedlé nepravosti jeho v jistý počet ran.
If the judge says that the guilty person must be punished, he shall command him to lie [with his face] on the ground and be whipped. The number of times he is struck with a whip will depend on [what kind of] crime he committed.
3 Ètyřidcetikrát káže ho mrštiti, aniž přidá více, aby, jestliže by jej nadto mrskal ranami mnohými, nebyl příliš zlehčen bratr tvůj před očima tvýma.
It is permitted that he be struck as many as 40 times, but no more than that. If he is struck more than 40 times, he would be humiliated publicly.
4 Nezavížeš úst vola mlátícího.
When your ox is treading/walking on the grain [to separate the chaff from the grain], do not (muzzle it/put a covering on its mouth) [to prevent it from eating some of the grain].
5 Když by bratří spolu bydlili, a umřel by jeden z nich, nemaje syna, nevdá se ven žena toho mrtvého za jiného muže; bratr jeho vejde k ní, a vezme ji sobě za manželku, a právem švagrovství přižení se k ní.
If two brothers live on the same property, and one of them who has no son dies, the man’s widow should not marry someone who is not a member of his family. The dead man’s brother must marry her and have sex [EUP] with her. It is his duty to do that.
6 Prvorozený pak, kteréhož by porodila, nazván bude jménem bratra jeho mrtvého, aby nebylo vyhlazeno jméno jeho z Izraele.
If she later gives birth to a son, that son is to be considered [MTY] the son of the man who died, in order that the dead man’s name will not disappear from Israel.
7 Nechtěl-li by pak muž ten pojíti příbuzné své, tedy přijde příbuzná jeho k bráně před starší a řekne: Nechce příbuzný můj vzbuditi bratru svému jména v Izraeli, a nechce podlé práva švagrovství pojíti mne.
“But if the dead man’s brother does not want to marry that woman, she must stand at the (gate/central meeting place) of the town and say to the [town] elders, ‘My husband’s brother will not do (his duty/what he is supposed to do). He refuses to [marry me in order that I may give birth to a son who will] prevent my dead husband’s name from disappearing in Israel.’
8 Tedy povolají ho starší města toho, a mluviti budou s ním; a stoje, řekl-li by: Nechci jí pojíti,
Then the elders must summon that man and talk to him. If he still refuses to marry that widow,
9 Přistoupí příbuzná jeho k němu před staršími, a szuje střevíc jeho s nohy jeho, a pline mu na tvář a odpoví, řkuci: Tak se má státi muži tomu, kterýž by nechtěl vzdělati domu bratra svého.
she must go up to him while the elders are watching, and take off one of his sandals [to symbolize/show that he would not receive any of her property], and spit in his face, and say to him, ‘This is what happens to the man who refuses to do what is needed [to allow his dead brother to have a son] in order that our family name does not disappear.’
10 I bude nazváno jméno jeho v Izraeli: Dům bosého.
After that happens, that man’s family will be known as ‘the family of the man whose sandal was pulled off’.
11 Když by se svadili někteří spolu jeden s druhým, a přistoupila by žena jednoho, aby vysvobodila muže svého z ruky bijícího jej, i vztáhla by ruku svou a uchopila by ho za lůno:
When [two] men are fighting with each other, and the one man’s wife comes near to help her husband by grabbing hold of the other man’s genitals,
12 Tedy utneš ruku její, neslituje se nad ní oko tvé.
do not act mercifully toward her; cut off her hand.
13 Nebudeš míti v pytlíku svém nejednostejného kamene, většího a menšího.
“[When you are buying or selling things], do not try to cheat people by having two kinds of weights, [one which you use when you buy something and one which you use when you sell something], and two kinds of measuring baskets, [one which you use when you buy something and one which you use when you sell something].
14 Aniž budeš míti v domě svém nejednostejného korce, většího a menšího.
15 Váhu celou a spravedlivou míti budeš, též míru celou a spravedlivou budeš míti, aby se prodlili dnové tvoji v zemi, kterouž Hospodin Bůh tvůj dává tobě.
Always use correct weights and correct measuring baskets, in order that Yahweh our God will allow you to live a long time in the land that he is giving to you.
16 Nebo v ohavnosti jest Hospodinu Bohu tvému, kdožkoli činí ty věci, všeliký činící nepravost.
Yahweh hates all those who act dishonestly, [and he will punish them].
17 Pamatuj na to, coť učinil Amalech na cestě, když jste šli z Egypta:
Continue to remember what the Amalek people-group did to your ancestors when they were coming out of Egypt.
18 Kterak vyšed tobě v cestu, zadní houf tvůj všech mdlých, kteříž šli za tebou, pobil, když jsi ty byl zemdlený a ustalý, a nebál se Boha.
They attacked your ancestors as your ancestors were traveling, when they were weak and exhausted. Those people were not afraid of God at all, so they attacked your ancestors from the rear and killed all those who were unable to walk as fast as the others.
19 Protož když byl Hospodin Bůh tvůj dal tobě odpočinutí ode všech nepřátel tvých vůkol v zemi, kterouž Hospodin Bůh tvůj dává tobě v dědictví, abys dědičně obdržel ji, vyhladíš památku Amalecha pod nebem; nezapomínejž na to.
Therefore, when Yahweh our God has given you the land [that he promised to give you], and when he has enabled you to rest from [fighting] all your enemies around you, kill all the Amalek people-group, with the result that no one will remember them any more. Do not forget [to do this]!”
