Deuteronomy 12
1 These are the laws and the decisions which you are to keep with care in the land which the Lord, the God of your fathers, has given you to be your heritage all the days of your life on earth.
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 You are to give up to the curse all those places where the nations, whom you are driving out, gave worship to their gods, on the high mountains and 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 Their altars and their pillars are to be broken down, and their holy trees burned with fire, and the images of their gods cut down; you are to take away their names out of that 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 Do not so to the Lord your God.
Tako ne boste storili Gospodu, svojemu Bogu.
5 But let your hearts be turned to the place which will be marked out by the Lord your God, among your tribes, to put his name there;
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 And there you are to take your burned offerings and other offerings, and the tenth part of your goods, and the offerings to be lifted up to the Lord, and the offerings of your oaths, and those which you give freely from the impulse of your hearts, and the first births among your herds and your 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 you and all your families are to make a feast before the Lord your God, with joy in everything to which you put your hand, because the Lord has given you his blessing.
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 things then in the way in which we now do them here, every man as it seems right to him:
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 come to the rest and the heritage which the Lord your God is giving you.
Kajti doslej niste prišli k počitku in k dediščini, ki vam jo daje Gospod, vaš Bog.
10 But when you have gone over Jordan and are living in the land which the Lord your God is giving you as your heritage, and when he has given you rest from all those on every side who are fighting against you, and you are living there safely;
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 there will be a place marked out by the Lord your God as the resting-place for his name, and there you will take all the things which I give you orders to take: your burned offerings and other offerings, and the tenth part of your goods, and the offerings to be lifted up, and the offerings of your oaths which you make 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 will be glad before the Lord your God, you and your sons and your daughters, and your men-servants and your women-servants, and the Levite who is with you in your house, because he has no part or heritage 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 Take care that you do not make your burned offerings in any place you see:
Pazi nase, da ne daruješ svojih žgalnih daritev na vsakem kraju, ki ga vidiš,
14 But in the place marked out by the Lord in one of your tribes, there let your burned offerings be offered, and there do what I have given you orders to do.
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 Only you may put to death animals, such as the gazelle or the roe, for your food in any of your towns, at the desire of your soul, in keeping with the blessing of the Lord your God which he has given you: the unclean and the clean may take of it.
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 may not take the blood for food, it is to be drained out on the earth like water.
Samo krvi ne boste jedli; kakor vodo jo boste izlili na zemljo.
17 In your towns you are not to take as food the tenth part of your grain, or of your wine or your oil, or the first births of your herds or of your flocks, or anything offered under an oath, or freely offered to the Lord, or given as a lifted offering;
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 But they will be your food before the Lord your God in the place of his selection, where you may make a feast of them, with your son and your daughter, and your man-servant and your woman-servant, and the Levite who is living with you: and you will have joy before the Lord your God in everything to which you put your hand.
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 See that you do not give up caring for the Levite as long as you are living in your land.
Pazi nase, da ne zapustiš Lévijevca tako dolgo, kot živiš na zemlji.
20 When the Lord your God makes wide the limit of your land, as he has said, and you say, I will take flesh for my food, because you have a desire for it; then you may take whatever flesh you have a desire for.
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 marked out by the Lord your God as the resting-place for his name is far away from you, then take from your herds and from your flocks which the Lord has given you, as I have said, and have a meal of it in the towns where you may be living.
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 It will be your food, like the gazelle and the roe; the unclean and the clean may take of it.
Celo kakor se pojesta srnjak in jelen, tako jih boš ti pojedel. Nečisti in čisti bosta enako jedla od njih.
23 But see that you do not take the blood for food; for the blood is the life; and you may not make use of the life as food with the flesh.
Samo bodi odločen, da ne ješ krvi, kajti kri je življenje in življenja ne smeš jesti z mesom.
24 Do not take it for food but let it be drained out on the earth like water.
Ne boš je jedel. Kakor vodo jo boš izlil na zemljo.
25 Do not take it for food; so that it may be well for you and for your children after you, while you do 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 the holy things which you have, and the offerings of your oaths, you are to take to the place which will be marked out by the Lord:
Samo svoje svete stvari, ki jih imaš in svoje zaobljube boš vzel in šel na kraj, ki ga bo Gospod izbral
27 Offering the flesh and the blood of your burned offerings on the altar of the Lord your God; and the blood of your offerings is to be drained out on the altar of the Lord your God, and the flesh will be your food.
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 Take note of all these orders I am giving you and give attention to them, so that it may be well for you and for your children after you for ever, while you do 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 people of the land where you are going have been cut off before you by the Lord your God, and you have taken their land and are living in it;
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 After their destruction take care that you do not go in their ways, and that you do not give thought to their gods, saying, How did these nations give worship to their gods? I will do as they did.
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 Do not so to the Lord your God: for everything which is disgusting to the Lord and hated by him they have done in honour of their gods: even burning their sons and daughters in the fire 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 You are to keep with care all the words I give you, making no addition to them and taking nothing from them.
Katerokoli stvar ti zapovem, obeležuj, da jo storiš. K temu ne boš dodal niti od tega ne boš jemal.
