Deuteronomy 25
1 “If there is a case between persons, and they apply to the judges, they shall give the palm of justice to the one whom they perceive to be just, and they shall condemn of impiety the one who is impious.
Kad je raspra meðu ljudima, pa doðu na sud da im sude, tada pravoga neka opravdaju a krivoga neka osude.
2 But if they see that the one who has sinned is worthy of stripes, they shall prostrate him and cause him to be beaten before them. According to the measure of the sin, so shall the measure of the stripes be.
I ako krivi zaslužuje boj, tada sudija neka zapovjedi da ga povale i biju pred njim, na broj prema krivici njegovoj.
3 Even so, these shall not exceed the number of forty. Otherwise, your brother may depart, having been wounded shamefully before your eyes.
Do èetrdeset udaraca neka zapovjedi da mu udare, ne više, da se ne bi poništio brat tvoj u tvojim oèima, kad bi mu se udarilo više udaraca.
4 You shall not muzzle an ox as it is treading out your crops in the field.
Nemoj zavezati usta volu kad vrše.
5 When brothers are living together, and one of them dies without children, the wife of the deceased shall not marry another. Instead, his brother shall take her, and he shall raise up offspring for his brother.
Kad braæa žive zajedno pa umre jedan od njih bez djece, onda žena umrloga da se ne uda iz kuæe za drugoga; brat njegov neka otide k njoj i uzme je za ženu i uèini joj dužnost djeversku.
6 And the first son from her, he shall call by his brother’s name, so that his name will not be abolished from Israel.
I prvi sin kojega ona rodi neka se nazove imenom brata njegova umrloga, da ne pogine ime njegovo u Izrailju.
7 But if he is not willing to take his brother’s wife, who by law must go to him, the woman shall go to the gate of the city, and she shall call upon those greater by birth, and she shall say: ‘The brother of my husband is not willing to raise up his brother’s name in Israel; nor will he join with me.’
Ako li onaj èovjek ne bi htio uzeti snahe svoje, onda snaha njegova neka doðe na vrata pred starješine, i reèe: neæe djever moj da podigne bratu svojemu sjemena u Izrailju, neæe da mi uèini dužnosti djeverske.
8 And immediately, they shall summon him to be sent, and they shall question him. If he responds, ‘I am not willing to accept her as a wife,’
Tada neka ga dozovu starješine mjesta onoga i razgovore se s njim; pa ako se on upre i reèe: neæu da je uzmem;
9 then the woman shall approach him in the sight of the elders, and she shall remove his shoe from his foot, and she shall spit in his face, and she shall say: ‘So shall it be done to the man who was not willing to build up his brother’s house.’
Onda neka pristupi k njemu snaha njegova pred starješinama, i neka mu izuje obuæu s noge njegove i pljune mu u lice, i progovorivši neka reèe: tako valja da bude èovjeku koji neæe da zida kuæe brata svojega.
10 And his name shall be called in Israel: The House of the Unshod.
I on neka se zove u Izrailju: dom bosoga.
11 If two men have a conflict between themselves, and one begins to do violence to the other, and if the other’s wife, wanting to rescue her husband from the hand of the stronger one, extends her hand and grasps him by his private parts,
Ako bi se svadili ljudi, jedan s drugim, pa bi došla žena jednoga da otme muža svojega iz ruke drugoga koji ga bije, i pruživši ruku svoju uhvatila bi ga za mošnice,
12 then you shall cut off her hand. Neither shall you weep over her with any mercy.
Otsijeci joj ruku; neka ne žali oko tvoje.
13 You shall not have differing weights, greater and lesser, in your bag.
Nemoj imati u torbi svojoj dvojaku mjeru, veliku i malu.
14 Neither shall there be in your house a greater and a lesser measure.
Nemoj imati u kuæi svojoj dvojaku efu, veliku i malu.
15 You shall have a just and a true weight, and your measure shall be equal and true, so that you may live for a long time upon the land, which the Lord your God will give to you.
Mjera potpuna i prava neka ti je; efa potpuna i prava neka ti je, da bi ti se produljili dani tvoji u zemlji koju ti daje Gospod Bog tvoj.
16 For the Lord your God abominates him who does these things, and he loathes all injustice.
Jer je gad pred Gospodom Bogom tvojim ko god èini tako, ko god èini krivo.
17 Remember what Amalek did to you, along the way, when you were departing from Egypt:
Opominji se šta ti je uèinio Amalik na putu kad iðaste iz Misira,
18 how he met you and cut down the stragglers of the troops, who were sitting down, exhausted, when you were consumed by hunger and hardship, and how he did not fear God.
Kako te doèeka na putu i pobi na kraju sve umorne koji iðahu za tobom, kad si bio sustao i iznemogao, i ne boja se Boga.
19 Therefore, when the Lord your God will give you rest, and you will have subdued all the surrounding nations, in the land which he has promised to you, you shall delete his name from under heaven. Take care not to forget this.”
Zato kad te Gospod Bog tvoj smiri od svijeh neprijatelja tvojih unaokolo u zemlji koju ti daje Gospod Bog tvoj da je naslijediš, tada zatri spomen Amaliku pod nebom; ne zaboravi.
