Deuteronomy 23
1 No man with crushed or severed genitals may enter the assembly of the LORD.
Neka se u Jahvinu zajednicu ne prima onaj komu je stučena mošnjica ili odrezano udo.
2 No one of illegitimate birth may enter the assembly of the LORD, nor may any of his descendants, even to the tenth generation.
Ni mješanac neka se ne prima u Jahvinu zajednicu; neka se njegovi ne primaju u zajednicu Jahvinu ni do desetog koljena.
3 No Ammonite or Moabite or any of their descendants may enter the assembly of the LORD, even to the tenth generation.
Neka ne ulazi u Jahvinu zajednicu ni Amonac ni Moabac; nitko od njihovih, čak ni u deseto koljeno, ne smije nikad u zajednicu Jahvinu.
4 For they did not meet you with food and water on your way out of Egypt, and they hired Balaam son of Beor from Pethor in Aram-naharaim to curse you.
A sve zato što nisu izašli pred vas s kruhom i vodom kad bijaste na putu izišavši iz Egipta; i što su za novce najmili sina Beorova, Bileama iz Petora u Aram Naharajimu, da te prokune.
5 Yet the LORD your God would not listen to Balaam, and the LORD your God turned the curse into a blessing for you, because the LORD your God loves you.
Ali Jahve, Bog tvoj, ne htjede uslišati Bileama nego ti Jahve, Bog tvoj, prometnu prokletstvo u blagoslov jer te ljubi Jahve, Bog tvoj.
6 You are not to seek peace or prosperity from them as long as you live.
Nikad ne promiči njihovo blagostanje i njihovo dobro u sve dane svoje dovijeka.
7 Do not despise an Edomite, for he is your brother. Do not despise an Egyptian, because you lived as a foreigner in his land.
Nemoj prezirati Edomca, jer je on brat tvoj. Ne preziri ni Egipćanina, jer si bio došljak u zemlji njegovoj.
8 The third generation of children born to them may enter the assembly of the LORD.
Njihovi potomci u trećem naraštaju mogu se primiti u Jahvinu zajednicu.
9 When you are encamped against your enemies, then you shall keep yourself from every wicked thing.
Kad pođeš s taborom na svoje neprijatelje, čuvaj se od svakoga zla.
10 If any man among you becomes unclean because of a nocturnal emission, he must leave the camp and stay outside.
Ako je među tvojima tko postao nečist zbog noćnog izljeva, neka iziđe iz tabora i neka se ne vraća u nj.
11 When evening approaches, he must wash with water, and when the sun sets he may return to the camp.
A predvečer neka se u vodi opere te u smiraje može opet u tabor.
12 You must have a place outside the camp to go and relieve yourself.
Imaj izvan tabora mjesto gdje ćeš ići napolje.
13 And you must have a digging tool in your equipment so that when you relieve yourself you can dig a hole and cover up your excrement.
Sa svojom opremom nosi i lopaticu: njome ćeš, kad ideš napolje, iskopati rupu i poslije zatrpati svoju nečist.
14 For the LORD your God walks throughout your camp to protect you and deliver your enemies to you. Your camp must be holy, lest He see anything unclean among you and turn away from you.
TÓa Jahve, Bog tvoj, ide posred tvoga tabora da te štiti i da ti predaje neprijatelje. Stoga i tvoj tabor treba da bude svet: neka Jahve ne zapazi u tebe ništa nedolično, da se ne bi odvratio od tebe.
15 Do not return a slave to his master if he has taken refuge with you.
Ne smiješ gospodaru izručivati roba koji je od svoga gospodara utekao k tebi.
16 Let him live among you wherever he chooses, in the town of his pleasing. Do not oppress him.
Neka boravi s tobom u tvojoj sredini, u mjestu što ga odabere u jednome od tvojih gradova gdje mu se svidi. Nemoj s njime loše postupati.
17 No daughter or son of Israel is to be a shrine prostitute.
Neka ne bude svetišne bludnice među izraelskim kćerima i neka ne bude svetišnog bludnika među izraelskim sinovima!
18 You must not bring the wages of a prostitute, whether female or male, into the house of the LORD your God to fulfill any vow, because both are detestable to the LORD your God.
Ne donosi u Dom Jahve, Boga svoga, ni za kakav zavjet bludničine plaće ni pasjeg novca, jer je oboje odvratno Jahvi, Bogu tvome.
19 Do not charge your brother interest on money, food, or any other type of loan.
Ne traži kamata od svoga brata, niti kamata za novac, niti kamata na jestvine, niti kamata na bilo što gdje se obično traže.
20 You may charge a foreigner interest, but not your brother, so that the LORD your God may bless you in everything to which you put your hand in the land that you are entering to possess.
Od tuđinca možeš tražiti kamate, ali ih od svoga brata nemoj tražiti, da ti Jahve, Bog tvoj, udijeli blagoslov u svakom pothvatu tvoje ruke u zemlji u koju ideš da je zaposjedneš.
21 If you make a vow to the LORD your God, do not be slow to keep it, because He will surely require it of you, and you will be guilty of sin.
Kad zavjetuješ kakav zavjet Jahvi, Bogu svome, ne oklijevaj da ga ispuniš. Zacijelo će ga Jahve, Bog tvoj, od tebe tražiti; i bio bi ti grijeh.
22 But if you refrain from making a vow, you will not be guilty of sin.
Ako se ne zavjetuješ, neće ti biti grijeh.
23 Be careful to follow through on what comes from your lips, because you have freely vowed to the LORD your God with your own mouth.
Ali ispuni ono što prijeđe preko tvojih usana, zavjet koji si svojim ustima slobodno učinio Jahvi, Bogu svome.
24 When you enter your neighbor’s vineyard, you may eat your fill of grapes, but you must not put any in your basket.
Ako uđeš u vinograd svoga susjeda, slobodno ti je zobati grožđa do mile volje, ali u svoj sud ne smiješ stavljati.
25 When you enter your neighbor’s grainfield, you may pluck the heads of grain with your hand, but you must not put a sickle to your neighbor’s grain.
Ako uđeš u žito svoga susjeda, možeš kidati klasove rukom, ali ne smiješ prinositi srpa susjedovu žitu.
