< Deuteronomy 17 >
1 “You shall not immolate to the Lord your God a sheep or an ox, in which there is a blemish or any defect at all; for this is an abomination to the Lord your God.
Tam Kungam, savam Dievam, tev nebūs upurēt nedz vērsi nedz avi, kam kāda vaina jeb kaite, jo Tam Kungam, tavam Dievam, tā ir negantība.
2 When there will have been found among you, within one of your gates which the Lord your God will give to you, a man or a woman who is doing evil in the sight of the Lord your God, and who is transgressing his covenant,
Kad tavā vidū, kādos vārtos, ko Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs, tev dos, atrastos vīrs vai sieva, kas ļaunu dara Tā Kunga, tava Dieva, priekšā, un pārkāpj Viņa derību,
3 so as to go and serve foreign gods and adore them, such as the sun and the moon, or any of the host of heaven, which I have not instructed,
Un iet un kalpo citiem dieviem un tos pielūdz, vai sauli, vai mēnesi, vai visu debess pulku, ko es neesmu pavēlējis,
4 and when this will have been reported to you, and, upon hearing it, if you have inquired diligently and have found it to be true, that the abomination is being done in Israel:
Un tas tev top sacīts, un tu to dzirdi, tad tev to būs labi izvaicāt, un redzi, ja tas ir tiesa, un tiešām šī negantība iekš Israēla ir darīta,
5 you shall lead forward the man or the woman who has perpetrated this most wicked thing to the gates of your city, and they shall be stoned to death.
Tad tev būs izvest šo vīru, vai šo sievu, kas šo grēku darījuši, pie saviem vārtiem, to vīru, vai to sievu, un tos akmeņiem nomētāt, lai mirst.
6 By the mouth of two or three witnesses, he who is to be put to death shall perish. Let no one be killed with only one person speaking testimony against him.
Uz divu vai treju liecinieku vārda tam būs tapt nokautam, kam jāmirst; uz viena liecinieka vārda tam nebūs mirt.
7 First, the hands of the witnesses shall be upon him who will be put to death, and lastly, the hands of the remainder of the people shall be sent forth. So may you take away the evil from your midst.
Liecinieku roka lai ir tā pirmā pret viņu, to nonāvēt un pēc tam visu ļaužu roka; tā tev būs izdeldēt to ļaunumu no sava vidus.
8 If you have perceived that there is among you a difficult and doubtful matter of judgment, between blood and blood, cause and cause, leprosy and leprosy, and if you will have seen that the words of the judges within your gates vary: rise up and ascend to the place which the Lord your God will choose.
Kad kāda lieta tev pavisam grūti izspriest starp asinīm un asinīm, starp sūdzību un sūdzību, starp vainu un vainu, tiesas lietas tavos vārtos, tad celies un ej uz to vietu, ko Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs, izredzēs.
9 And you shall approach the priests of the Levitical stock, and the judge, who shall be among them at that time, and you shall inquire of them, and they will reveal to you the truth of the judgment.
Un tev būs nākt pie tiem priesteriem, tiem Levitiem, un pie tā soģa, kas to brīdi tur būs, un tev būs vaicāt, - tad viņi tev sludinās tiesas spriedumu.
10 And you shall accept whatever they will say, those who preside in the place which the Lord will choose, and whatever they will teach you,
Un tev būs darīt pēc tā vārda, ko viņi tev sacīs tai vietā, ko Tas Kungs izredzēs, un tev būs vērā ņemt un darīt visu, ko tie tev mācīs.
11 in accord with his law, and you shall follow their sentence. Neither shall you turn aside to the right or to the left.
Pēc tās bauslības, ko tie tev mācīs un pēc tās tiesas, ko tie tev sacīs, tev būs darīt; tev nebūs atkāpties no tā vārda, ko tie tev sacīs, ne pa labo ne pa kreiso roku.
12 But whoever will be arrogant, unwilling to obey the order of the priest who ministers at that time to the Lord your God, and the decree of the judge, that man shall die. And so shall you take away the evil from Israel.
Ja kas laban turēsies pārgalvīgi, neklausīdams tam priesterim, kas tur stāv Tam Kungam, savam Dievam, kalpodams, vai tam soģim, tam būs mirt, un tev būs izdeldēt to ļaunumu no Israēla,
13 And when the people hear about this, they shall be afraid, so that no one, from that time on, will swell with pride.
Lai visi ļaudis to dzird un bīstas, un vairs neturās pārgalvīgi.
14 When you will have entered into the land which the Lord your God will give to you, and you possess it, and you live in it, and you say, ‘I will appoint a king over me, just as all the surrounding nations have done,’
Kad tu nāksi tai zemē, ko Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs, tev dos, un to iemantosi un tur dzīvosi un sacīsi: es pār sevi iecelšu ķēniņu, kā visas apkārtējās tautas,
15 you shall appoint him whom the Lord your God will choose from among the number of your brothers. You cannot make a man of another people king, one who is not your brother.
Tad iecel sev par ķēniņu to, ko Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs, izredzēs; no savu brāļu vidus tev būs sev iecelt ķēniņu, tu nevari pār sevi celt svešu vīru, kas nav tavs brālis.
16 And when he will have been appointed king, he shall not multiply horses for himself, nor lead the people back into Egypt, having been exalted by the number of his horsemen, especially since the Lord has instructed you never to return along the same way.
Bet viņam nebūs turēt pulka zirgu, nedz tos ļaudis atpakaļ vest uz Ēģiptes zemi, lai dabūtu pulka zirgu, jo Tas Kungs jums ir sacījis: tev nebūs atpakaļ griezties pa šo ceļu.
17 He shall not have many wives, who might allure his mind, and he shall not have immense weights of silver and gold.
Tam arī nebūs apņemt daudz sievu, ka viņa sirds neatkāpjas; tam arī nebūs sev sakrāt ļoti daudz sudraba un zelta.
18 Then, after he has been seated upon the throne of his kingdom, he shall write for himself the Deuteronomy of this law in a volume, using a copy from the priests of the Levitical tribe.
Un kad viņš nu sēdēs uz sava valstības krēsla, tad lai viņš no tiem priesteriem un Levitiem sev grāmatā raksta šīs bauslības norakstu.
19 And he shall have it with him, and he shall read it all the days of his life, so that he may learn to fear the Lord his God, and to keep his words and ceremonies, which are instructed in the law.
Un tas lai pie viņa stāv, un lai viņš tanī lasa visu savu mūžu, ka viņš mācās bīties To Kungu, savu Dievu, un turēt visus šās bauslības vārdus un visus šos likumus, ka viņš tos dara.
20 And so may his heart not become exalted with arrogance over his brothers, nor turn aside to the right or to the left, so that he and his sons may reign for a long time over Israel.”
Ka viņa sirds nepaceļas pār saviem brāļiem, un ka viņš neatkāpjas no likuma ne pa labo, ne pa kreiso roku, lai viņš ilgi paliek savā valstībā, viņš un viņa dēli Israēla vidū.
