Deuteronomy 17
1 Thou shalt not sacrifice to Jehovah thy God an ox or sheep wherein is a defect, or anything bad; for it is an abomination to Jehovah thy 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 If there be found in thy midst in any of thy gates which Jehovah thy God giveth thee, man or woman, that doeth what is evil in the sight of Jehovah thy God, in transgressing 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 goeth and serveth other gods, and boweth down to them, either to the sun or to the moon, or to the whole host of heaven, which I have not commanded;
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 thee, and thou hearest of it; then thou shalt make thorough inquiry, and if it be truth [and] the thing be certain, that this abomination hath been wrought 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 thou shalt bring forth that man or that woman, who committed that wicked thing, unto thy gates, the man or the woman, and shalt stone them with stones, that they 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 At the mouth of two witnesses, or three witnesses, shall he that is to die be put to death: he shall not be put to death at the mouth of 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 The hands of the witnesses shall be first upon him to put him to death, and afterwards the hands of all the people; and thou shalt put evil away from thy midst.
Svjedoci neka prvi dignu ruke na nj da ga ubiju; a potom sav narod; tako izvadi zlo iz sebe.
8 If there arise a matter too hard for thee in judgment, between blood and blood, between cause and cause, and between stroke and stroke, matters of controversy within thy gates, then shalt thou arise, and go up to the place which Jehovah thy God will choose.
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 And thou shalt come unto the priests, the Levites, and unto the judge that shall be in those days, and inquire; and they shall declare unto thee the sentence of judgment;
I otidi k sveštenicima Levitima ili k sudiji koji onda bude, pa ih upitaj, i oni æe ti kazati kako valja presuditi.
10 and thou shalt do according to the tenor of the word, which they of that place which Jehovah will choose shall declare unto thee; and thou shalt take heed to do according to all that they instruct thee:
I uèini onako kako ti kažu u mjestu koje izbere Gospod, i gledaj da uèiniš sasvijem onako kako te nauèe.
11 according to the sentence of the law which they shall declare unto thee, and according to the judgment which they shall tell thee, thou shalt do: thou shalt not decline from the word which they shall declare unto thee, to the right hand, or the left.
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 that shall act presumptuously, and not hearken unto the priest that standeth to serve there before Jehovah thy God, or unto the judge, that man shall die; and thou shalt put away evil from 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 no more act presumptuously.
Da sav narod èuje i boji se, i unapredak da ne radi uporno.
14 When thou comest unto the land which Jehovah thy God giveth thee, and shalt possess it, and shalt dwell therein, and shalt say, I will set a king over me, like all the nations that are 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 thou shalt only set him king over thee whom Jehovah thy God will choose: from among thy brethren shalt thou set a king over thee; thou mayest not set a foreigner over thee, who is not thy 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 Only he shall not multiply horses to himself, nor lead back the people to Egypt, to multiply horses; for Jehovah hath said unto you, Ye shall not return again any more 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 Neither shall he multiply wives to himself, that his heart turn not away; neither shall he 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 it shall be, when he sitteth upon the throne of his kingdom, that he shall write for himself a copy of this law in a book out of that which is before 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 therein all the days of his life; that he may learn to fear Jehovah his God, to keep all the words of this law and these statutes, to do them;
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, and that he turn not aside from the commandment, to the right hand, or to the left; that he may prolong his days in his kingdom, he, and his sons, in the midst 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.
