Deuteronomy 12
1 These are the statutes and ordinances, which ye shall take heed to do in the land, which Jehovah the God of thy fathers is giving thee to possess it, all the days that ye live upon the 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 Ye shall utterly destroy all the places wherein the nations which ye shall dispossess have served their gods, upon the high mountains, and upon 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 and ye shall break down their altars, and shatter their statues, and burn their Asherahs with fire; and ye shall hew down the graven images of their gods, and ye shall destroy the names of them 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 Ye shall not do so unto Jehovah your God;
Tako ne boste storili Gospodu, svojemu Bogu.
5 but unto the place which Jehovah your God will choose out of all your tribes to set his name there, his habitation shall ye seek, and thither thou shalt come;
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 thither ye shall bring your burnt-offerings and your sacrifices, and your tithes, and the heave-offering of your hand, and your vows, and your voluntary-offerings, and the firstlings of your kine and of your sheep;
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 and ye shall eat there before Jehovah your God, and ye shall rejoice, ye and your households, in all the business of your hand, wherein Jehovah thy God hath blessed thee.
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 Ye shall not do after all that we do here this day, each one whatever is right in his own eyes.
Ne boste počeli po vseh stvareh, ki jih mi ta dan delamo tukaj, vsak mož karkoli je pravilno v njegovih lastnih očeh.
9 For ye are not as yet come to the rest and to the inheritance which Jehovah thy God giveth thee.
Kajti doslej niste prišli k počitku in k dediščini, ki vam jo daje Gospod, vaš Bog.
10 But when ye have gone over the Jordan, and dwell in the land which Jehovah your God causeth you to inherit, and when he hath given you rest from all your enemies round about, and ye dwell in safety,
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 shall be a place which Jehovah your God will choose to cause his name to dwell there; thither shall ye bring all that I command you: your burnt-offerings, and your sacrifices, your tithes, and the heave-offering of your hand, and all your choice vows which ye shall vow to Jehovah.
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 ye shall rejoice before Jehovah your God, ye, and your sons, and your daughters, and your bondmen, and your handmaids, and the Levite that is within your gates; for he hath no portion nor inheritance with 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 heed to thyself that thou offer not thy burnt-offerings in every place that thou seest;
Pazi nase, da ne daruješ svojih žgalnih daritev na vsakem kraju, ki ga vidiš,
14 but in the place which Jehovah will choose in one of thy tribes, there thou shalt offer thy burnt-offerings, and there thou shalt do all that I command thee.
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 Nevertheless, according to all the desire of thy soul thou mayest slay and eat flesh in all thy gates, according to the blessing of Jehovah thy God which he hath given thee: the unclean and the clean may eat thereof, as of the gazelle, and the hart.
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 Only, ye shall not eat the blood; ye shall pour it upon the earth as water.
Samo krvi ne boste jedli; kakor vodo jo boste izlili na zemljo.
17 Thou mayest not eat within thy gates the tithe of thy corn, or of thy new wine, or of thine oil, or the firstlings of thy kine or of thy sheep, nor any of thy vows which thou vowest, nor thy voluntary-offerings, nor the heave-offering of thy hand;
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 before Jehovah thy God shalt thou eat them in the place which Jehovah thy God will choose, thou and thy son, and thy daughter, and thy bondman, and thy handmaid, and the Levite that is within thy gates; and thou shalt rejoice before Jehovah thy God in all the business of thy 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 Take heed to thyself that thou forsake not the Levite all the days thou shalt be in thy land.
Pazi nase, da ne zapustiš Lévijevca tako dolgo, kot živiš na zemlji.
20 When Jehovah thy God shall enlarge thy border, as he promised thee, and thou say, I will eat flesh, because thy soul longeth to eat flesh, thou mayest eat flesh, according to all the desire of thy soul.
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 which Jehovah thy God will choose to set his name there be too far from thee, then thou shalt slay of thy kine and of thy sheep which Jehovah hath given thee, as I have commanded thee, and thou shalt eat in thy gates according to all the desire of thy soul.
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 Even as the gazelle and the hart is eaten, so thou shalt eat them: the unclean and the clean alike may eat of them.
Celo kakor se pojesta srnjak in jelen, tako jih boš ti pojedel. Nečisti in čisti bosta enako jedla od njih.
23 Only, be sure that thou eat not the blood; for the blood is the life, and thou mayest not eat the life with the flesh;
Samo bodi odločen, da ne ješ krvi, kajti kri je življenje in življenja ne smeš jesti z mesom.
24 thou shalt not eat it; thou shalt pour it upon the earth as water:
Ne boš je jedel. Kakor vodo jo boš izlil na zemljo.
25 thou shalt not eat it; that it may go well with thee, and with thy children after thee, when thou shalt do what is right in the eyes of Jehovah.
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 thy hallowed things which thou hast, and what thou hast vowed, thou shalt take, and come to the place which Jehovah will choose;
Samo svoje svete stvari, ki jih imaš in svoje zaobljube boš vzel in šel na kraj, ki ga bo Gospod izbral
27 and thou shalt offer thy burnt-offerings, the flesh and the blood, upon the altar of Jehovah thy God; and the blood of thy sacrifices shall be poured out upon the altar of Jehovah thy God, and the flesh shalt thou eat.
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 heed to hear all these words which I command thee, that it may be well with thee, and with thy children after thee for ever, when thou doest what is good and right in the eyes of Jehovah thy 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 Jehovah thy God cutteth off from before thee the nations whither thou goest, to take possession of them, and thou hast dispossessed them, and dwellest in their land,
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 take heed to thyself that thou be not ensnared [to follow] after them, after that they are destroyed from before thee; and that thou inquire not after their gods, saying, How did these nations serve their gods? even so will I do likewise.
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 Thou shalt not do so to Jehovah thy God; for every [thing that is] abomination to Jehovah, which he hateth, have they done unto their gods; for even their sons and their daughters have they burned 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 Everything that I command you, ye shall take heed to do it; thou shalt not add thereto, nor take from it.
Katerokoli stvar ti zapovem, obeležuj, da jo storiš. K temu ne boš dodal niti od tega ne boš jemal.
