Deuteronomy 17

1 You shall not sacrifice to the Lord your God a calf or a sheep, in which there is a blemish, [or] any evil thing; for it is an abomination to the Lord your God.

Ne prinosi Gospodu Bogu svojemu ni vola ni jagnjeta ni jareta na kom ima mana ili kako god zlo; jer je gadno pred Gospodom Bogom tvojim.

2 And if there should be found in any one of your cities, which the Lord your God gives you, a man or a woman who shall do that which is evil before the Lord your God, so as to transgress his covenant,

Ako se naðe kod tebe u kojem od mjesta tvojih, koja ti da Gospod Bog tvoj, èovjek ili žena da uèini zlo pred Gospodom Bogom tvojim prestupajuæi zavjet njegov,

3 and they should go and serve other gods, and worship them, the sun, or the moon, or any of the host of heaven, which he commanded you not to do,

I otide te služi drugim bogovima i klanja im se, ili suncu ili mjesecu ili èemu god iz vojske nebeske, što nijesam zapovjedio,

4 and it be told you, and you shall have enquired diligently, and, behold, the thing really took place, this abomination has been done in Israel;

I tebi se to javi i ti èuješ, onda raspitaj dobro; pa ako bude istina i doista se uèinila ona gadna stvar u Izrailju,

5 then shall you bring out that man, or that woman, and you shall stone them with stones, and they shall die.

Izvedi onoga èovjeka ili onu ženu, koji uèiniše ono zlo, na vrata svoja, èovjeka onoga ili ženu, i zaspi ih kamenjem da poginu.

6 He shall die on the testimony of two or three witnesses; a man who is put to death shall not be put to death for one witness.

Na svjedoèanstvo dva ili tri èovjeka da se pogubi onaj koga valja pogubiti; ali na svjedoèanstvo jednoga èovjeka da se ne pogubi.

7 And the hand of the witnesses shall be upon him amongst the first to put him to death, and the hand of the people at the last; so shall you remove the evil one from amongst yourselves.

Svjedoci neka prvi dignu ruke na nj da ga ubiju; a potom sav narod; tako izvadi zlo iz sebe.

8 And if a matter shall be too hard for you in judgement, between blood and blood, and between cause and cause, and between stroke and stroke, and between contradiction and contradiction, matters of judgement in your cities;

Kad ti bude teško rasuditi izmeðu krvi i krvi, izmeðu raspre i raspre, ili izmeðu rane i rane, oko kojih bude parnica u tvojem mjestu, tada ustani i idi u mjesto koje izbere Gospod Bog tvoj;

9 then you shall arise and go up to the place which the Lord your God shall choose, and you shall come to the priests the Levites, and to the judge who shall be in those days, and they shall search out [the matter] and report the judgement to you.

I otidi k sveštenicima Levitima ili k sudiji koji onda bude, pa ih upitaj, i oni æe ti kazati kako valja presuditi.

10 And you shall act according to the thing which they shall report to you out of the place which the Lord your God shall choose, and you shall observe to do all whatever shall have been by law appointed to you.

I uèini onako kako ti kažu u mjestu koje izbere Gospod, i gledaj da uèiniš sasvijem onako kako te nauèe.

11 You shall do according to the law and to the judgement which they shall declare to you: you shall not swerve to the right hand or to the left from any sentence which they shall report to you.

Po zakonu kojemu te nauèe, i po presudi, koju ti kažu, uèini; ne otstupi od onoga što ti kažu ni nadesno ni nalijevo.

12 And the man whoever shall act in haughtiness, so as not to listen to the priest who stands to minister in the name of the Lord your God, or the judge who shall preside in those days, that man shall die, and you shall remove the evil one out of Israel.

Ako li bi se ko upro te ne bi htio poslušati sveštenika koji ondje stoji te služi Gospodu Bogu tvojemu, ili sudije, taki èovjek da se pogubi; i izvadi zlo iz Izrailja,

13 And all the people shall hear and fear, and shall no more commit impiety.

Da sav narod èuje i boji se, i unapredak da ne radi uporno.

14 And when you shall enter into the land which the Lord your God gives you, and shall inherit it and dwell in it, and shall say, I will set a ruler over me, as also the other nations round about me;

Kad uðeš u zemlju koju ti daje Gospod Bog tvoj da je naslijediš, i naseliš se u njoj, ako reèeš: da postavim sebi cara, kao što imaju svi narodi oko mene,

15 you shall surely set over you the ruler whom the Lord God shall choose: of your brethren you shall set over you a ruler; you shall not have power to set over you a stranger, because he is not your brother.

Samo onoga postavi sebi za cara, kojega izbere Gospod Bog tvoj; izmeðu braæe svoje postavi cara sebi; a nemoj postaviti nad sobom èovjeka tuðina, koji nije brat tvoj.

16 For he shall not multiply to himself horses, and he shall by no means turn the people back to Egypt, lest he should multiply to himself horses; for the Lord said, You shall not any more turn back by that way.

Ali da ne drži mnogo konja, i da ne vraæa naroda u Misir da bi imao mnogo konja, jer vam je Gospod kazao: ne vraæajte se više ovijem putem.

17 And he shall not multiply to himself wives, lest his heart turn away; and he shall not greatly multiply to himself silver and gold.

I da nema mnogo žena, da se ne bi otpadilo srce njegovo, ni srebra ni zlata da nema vrlo mnogo.

18 And when he shall be established in his government, then shall he write for himself this repetition of the law into a book by the hands of the priests the Levites;

A kad sjede na prijesto carstva svojega, neka prepiše sebi u knjigu ovaj zakon od sveštenika Levita;

19 and it shall be with him, and he shall read in it all the days of his life, that he may learn to fear the Lord your God, and to keep all these commandments, and to observe these ordinances:

I neka ga drži kod sebe i neka ga èita dok je živ, da se uèi bojati se Gospoda Boga svojega, držati sve rijeèi ovoga zakona i ove uredbe, i tvoriti ih;

20 that his heart be not lifted up above his brethren, that he depart not from the commandments on the right hand or on the left; that he and his sons may reign long in his dominion amongst the children of Israel.

Da se ne bi podiglo srce njegovo iznad braæe njegove, i da ne bi otstupilo od ove zapovijesti ni nadesno ni nalijevo, da bi dugo carovao on i sinovi njegovi u Izrailju.
