Deuteronomy 12
1 These are the statutes and ordinances you must be careful to follow all the days you live in the land that the LORD, the God of your fathers, has given you to possess.
To so zakoni in sodbe, ki jih boste obeležili, da jih počnete v deželi, ki ti jo daje Gospod, Bog vaših očetov, da jo vzamete v last, vse dni, ko živite na zemlji.
2 Destroy completely all the places where the nations you are dispossessing have served their gods—atop the high mountains, on the hills, and under every green tree.
Vse kraje, na katerih so narodi, ki jih boste vzeli v last, služili svojim bogovom na visokih gorah, na hribih in pod vsakim zelenim drevesom, boste popolnoma uničili.
3 Tear down their altars, smash their sacred pillars, burn up their Asherah poles, cut down the idols of their gods, and wipe out their names from every place.
Porušili boste njihove oltarje, zlomili njihove stebre, njihove ašere sežgali z ognjem, posekali boste rezane podobe njihovih bogov in njihova imena uničili iz tega kraja.
4 You shall not worship the LORD your God in this way.
Tako ne boste storili Gospodu, svojemu Bogu.
5 Instead, you must seek the place the LORD your God will choose from among all your tribes to establish as a dwelling for His Name, and there you must go.
Toda na kraj, ki ga bo Gospod, vaš Bog, izbral izmed vseh vaših rodov, da tam položi svoje ime, celó k njegovemu prebivališču boste sledili in tja boš prišel
6 To that place you are to bring your burnt offerings and sacrifices, your tithes and heave offerings, your vow offerings and freewill offerings, as well as the firstborn of your herds and flocks.
in tja boste prinašali svoje žgalne daritve, svoje klavne daritve, svoje desetine, vzdigovalne daritve svoje roke, svoje zaobljube, svoje prostovoljne daritve in prvence od svojih čred in od svojih tropov.
7 There, in the presence of the LORD your God, you and your households shall eat and rejoice in all you do, because the LORD your God has blessed you.
Tam boste jedli pred Gospodom, svojim Bogom in veselili se boste v vsem, k čemur položite svojo roko, vi in vaše družine, v čemer te je Gospod, tvoj Bog, blagoslovil.
8 You are not to do as we are doing here today, where everyone does what seems right in his own eyes.
Ne boste počeli po vseh stvareh, ki jih mi ta dan delamo tukaj, vsak mož karkoli je pravilno v njegovih lastnih očeh.
9 For you have not yet come to the resting place and the inheritance that the LORD your God is giving you.
Kajti doslej niste prišli k počitku in k dediščini, ki vam jo daje Gospod, vaš Bog.
10 When you cross the Jordan and live in the land that the LORD your God is giving you as an inheritance, and He gives you rest from all the enemies around you and you dwell securely,
Toda ko greste čez Jordan in prebivate v deželi, ki vam jo daje Gospod, vaš Bog, da jo podedujete in ko vam daje počitek pred vsemi vašimi sovražniki naokoli, tako da varno prebivate,
11 then the LORD your God will choose a dwelling for His Name. And there you are to bring everything I command you: your burnt offerings and sacrifices, your tithes and special gifts, and all the choice offerings you vow to the LORD.
potem bo tam kraj, ki ga bo Gospod, vaš Bog, izbral, da svojemu imenu povzroči, da prebiva tam. Tja boste prinesli vse, kar sem vam zapovedal: vaše žgalne daritve, vaše klavne daritve, vaše desetine, vzdigovalno daritev vaše roke in vso vašo izbiro zaobljub, ki ste jih zaobljubili Gospodu,
12 And you shall rejoice before the LORD your God—you, your sons and daughters, your menservants and maidservants, and the Levite within your gates, since he has no portion or inheritance among you.
in veselili se boste pred Gospodom, vašim Bogom, vi in vaši sinovi, vaše hčere, služabniki, vaše dekle in Lévijevec, ki je znotraj tvojih velikih vrat, ker nima ne deleža, ne dediščine z vami.
13 Be careful not to offer your burnt offerings in just any place you see;
Pazi nase, da ne daruješ svojih žgalnih daritev na vsakem kraju, ki ga vidiš,
14 you must offer them only in the place the LORD will choose in one of your tribal territories, and there you shall do all that I command you.
temveč na kraju, ki ga bo Gospod izbral v enem izmed tvojih rodov, tam boš daroval svoje žgalne daritve in tam boš počel vse, kar ti zapovem.
15 But whenever you want, you may slaughter and eat meat within any of your gates, according to the blessing the LORD your God has given you. Both the ceremonially clean and unclean may eat it as they would a gazelle or deer,
Vendar v vseh svojih velikih vratih lahko zakolješ in ješ meso, karkoli tvoja duša poželi, glede na blagoslov Gospoda, tvojega Boga, ki ti ga je dal. Nečisti in čisti lahko jé od tega, kakor od srnjaka in kakor od jelena.
16 but you must not eat the blood; pour it on the ground like water.
Samo krvi ne boste jedli; kakor vodo jo boste izlili na zemljo.
17 Within your gates you must not eat the tithe of your grain or new wine or oil, the firstborn of your herds or flocks, any of the offerings that you have vowed to give, or your freewill offerings or special gifts.
Znotraj svojih velikih vrat ne smeš jesti desetine svojega žita ali svojega vina ali svojega olja ali prvencev svojih čred ali svojega tropa, niti česarkoli od svojih zaobljub, ki si jih zaobljubil, niti svojih prostovoljnih daritev ali vzdigovalne daritve svoje roke,
18 Instead, you must eat them in the presence of the LORD your God at the place the LORD your God will choose—you, your sons and daughters, your menservants and maidservants, and the Levite within your gates. Rejoice before the LORD your God in all you do,
temveč jih moraš jesti pred Gospodom, svojim Bogom, na kraju, ki ga bo Gospod, tvoj Bog, izbral, ti in tvoj sin, tvoja hči, tvoj sluga, tvoja dekla in Lévijevec, ki je znotraj tvojih velikih vrat, in veselil se boš pred Gospodom, svojim Bogom, v vsem, k čemur priložiš svoji roki.
19 and be careful not to neglect the Levites as long as you live in your land.
Pazi nase, da ne zapustiš Lévijevca tako dolgo, kot živiš na zemlji.
20 When the LORD your God expands your territory as He has promised, and you crave meat and say, “I want to eat meat,” you may eat it whenever you want.
Ko bo Gospod, tvoj Bog, povečal tvojo mejo, kakor ti je obljubil in boš rekel: ›Jedel bom meso, ‹ ker tvoja duša hrepeni, da bi jedla meso; lahko ješ meso, karkoli tvoja duša poželi.
21 If the place where the LORD your God chooses to put His Name is too far from you, then you may slaughter any of the herd or flock He has given you, as I have commanded you, and you may eat it within your gates whenever you want.
Če je kraj, ki ga je izbral Gospod, tvoj Bog, da tam položi svoje ime, predaleč od tebe, potem boš zaklal od svoje črede in od svojega tropa, ki ti ga je dal Gospod, kakor sem ti zapovedal in v svojih velikih vratih boš jedel karkoli tvoja duša poželi.
22 Indeed, you may eat it as you would eat a gazelle or deer; both the ceremonially unclean and the clean may eat it.
Celo kakor se pojesta srnjak in jelen, tako jih boš ti pojedel. Nečisti in čisti bosta enako jedla od njih.
23 Only be sure not to eat the blood, because the blood is the life, and you must not eat the life with the meat.
Samo bodi odločen, da ne ješ krvi, kajti kri je življenje in življenja ne smeš jesti z mesom.
24 You must not eat the blood; pour it on the ground like water.
Ne boš je jedel. Kakor vodo jo boš izlil na zemljo.
25 Do not eat it, so that it may go well with you and your children after you, because you will be doing what is right in the eyes of the LORD.
Ne boš je jedel, da bo lahko dobro s teboj in s tvojimi otroki za teboj, ko boš delal to, kar je pravilno v Gospodovih očeh.
26 But you are to take your holy things and your vow offerings and go to the place the LORD will choose.
Samo svoje svete stvari, ki jih imaš in svoje zaobljube boš vzel in šel na kraj, ki ga bo Gospod izbral
27 Present the meat and blood of your burnt offerings on the altar of the LORD your God. The blood of your other sacrifices must be poured out beside the altar of the LORD your God, but you may eat the meat.
in daroval boš svoje žgalne daritve, meso in kri, na oltarju Gospoda, svojega Boga. In kri tvojih klavnih daritev bo izlita na oltar Gospoda, tvojega Boga in jedel boš meso.
28 Be careful to obey all these things I command you, so that it may always go well with you and your children after you, because you will be doing what is good and right in the eyes of the LORD your God.
Obeležuj in poslušaj vse te besede, ki sem ti jih zapovedal, da bo lahko dobro s teboj in s tvojimi otroki za teboj na veke, ko delaš to, kar je dobro in pravilno v očeh Gospoda, tvojega Boga.
29 When the LORD your God cuts off before you the nations you are entering to dispossess, and you drive them out and live in their land,
Ko bo Gospod, tvoj Bog, izpred tebe uničil narode, kamor greš, da jih vzameš v last in jih zasedeš in prebivaš v njihovi deželi,
30 be careful not to be ensnared by their ways after they have been destroyed before you. Do not inquire about their gods, asking, “How do these nations serve their gods? I will do likewise.”
pazi nase, da ne boš ujet s tem, da jim slediš, potem ko so bili uničeni izpred tebe, in da ne povprašuješ po njihovih bogovih, rekoč: ›Kako so ti narodi služili svojim bogovom? Celo jaz bom počel podobno.‹
31 You must not worship the LORD your God in this way, because they practice for their gods every abomination which the LORD hates. They even burn their sons and daughters in the fire as sacrifices to their gods.
Ne boš tako počel Gospodu, svojemu Bogu, kajti vsako ogabnost Gospodu, ki jo on sovraži, so počeli svojim bogovom, kajti celo svoje sinove in svoje hčere so v ognju sežigali svojim bogovom.
32 See that you do everything I command you; do not add to it or subtract from it.
Katerokoli stvar ti zapovem, obeležuj, da jo storiš. K temu ne boš dodal niti od tega ne boš jemal.
