Deuteronomy 20
1 When thou shalt go forth to warre against thine enemies, and shalt see horses and charets, and people moe then thou, be not afrayde of them: for the Lord thy God is with thee, which brought thee out of the land of Egypt.
Kad otideš na vojsku na neprijatelja svojega i vidiš konje i kola i narod veæi od sebe, nemoj se uplašiti od njih, jer je s tobom Gospod Bog tvoj, koji te je izveo iz zemlje Misirske.
2 And when ye are come neere vnto the battel, then the Priest shall come forth to speake vnto the people,
I kad poðete da se pobijete, neka pristupi sveštenik i progovori narodu,
3 And shall say vnto them, Heare, O Israel: ye are come this day vnto battell against your enemies: let not your heartes faynt, neither feare, nor be amased, nor adread of them.
I neka im reèe: slušaj Izrailju! vi polazite danas u boj na neprijatelje svoje, neka ne trne srce vaše, ne bojte se i ne plašite se, niti se prepadajte od njih.
4 For ye Lord your God goeth with you, to fight for you against your enemies, and to saue you
Jer Gospod Bog vaš ide s vama i biæe se za vas s neprijateljima vašim da vas saèuva.
5 And let the officers speake vnto the people, saying, What man is there that hath buylt a new house, and hath not dedicate it? let him go and returne to his house, least he dye in the battel, and an other man dedicate it.
Potom i vojvode neka progovore narodu, i reku: ko je sagradio novu kuæu a nije poèeo sjedjeti u njoj? neka ide, nek se vrati kuæi svojoj, da ne bi poginuo u boju, i drugi poèeo sjedjeti u njoj.
6 And what man is there that hath planted a vineyarde, and hath not eaten of the fruite? let him go and returne againe vnto his house, least he die in the battel, and another eate the fruite.
I ko je posadio vinograd a još ga nije brao? neka ide, nek se vrati kuæi svojoj, da ne bi poginuo u boju, i drugi ga brao.
7 And what man is there that hath betrothed a wife, and hath not taken her? let him go and returne againe vnto his house, lest he die in the battell, and another man take her.
I ko je isprosio djevojku a još je nije odveo? neka ide, nek se vrati kuæi svojoj, da ne bi poginuo u boju, i drugi je odveo.
8 And let the officers speake further vnto the people, and say, Whosoeuer is afrayde and faynt hearted, let him go and returne vnto his house, least his brethrens heart faynt like his heart.
Još i ovo neka kažu vojvode narodu i reku: ko je strašiv i trne mu srce? neka ide, nek se vrati kuæi svojoj, da ne bi trnulo srce braæi njegovoj kao njemu.
9 And after that the officers haue made an ende of speaking vnto the people, they shall make captaines of the armie to gouerne the people.
I kad vojvode izgovore narodu, onda neka namjeste glavare od èeta pred narod.
10 When thou commest neere vnto a citie to fight against it, thou shalt offer it peace.
Kad doðeš pod koji grad da ga biješ, prvo ga ponudi mirom.
11 And if it answere thee againe peaceably, and open vnto thee, then let all the people that is founde therein, be tributaries vnto thee, and serue thee.
Ako ti odgovori mirom i otvori ti vrata, sav narod koji se naðe u njemu neka ti plaæa danak i bude ti pokoran.
12 But if it will make no peace with thee, but make war against thee, then shalt thou besiege it.
Ako li ne uèini mira s tobom nego se stane biti s tobom, tada ga bij.
13 And the Lord thy God shall deliuer it into thine handes, and thou shalt smite all the males thereof with the edge of the sworde.
I kad ga Gospod Bog tvoj preda u ruke tvoje, pobij sve muškinje u njemu maèem.
14 Onely the women, and the children, and the cattel, and all that is in the citie, euen all the spoyle thereof shalt thou take vnto thy selfe, and shalt eate the spoyle of thine enemies, which the Lord thy God hath giuen thee.
A žene i djecu i stoku i što god bude u gradu, sav plijen u njemu, otmi, i jedi plijen od neprijatelja svojih, koji ti da Gospod Bog tvoj.
15 Thus shalt thou do vnto all ye cities, which are a great way off from thee, which are not of the cities of these nations here.
Tako èini sa svijem gradovima, koji su daleko od tebe i nijesu od gradova ovijeh naroda.
16 But of the cities of this people, which the Lord thy God shall giue thee to inherite, thou shalt saue no person aliue,
A u gradovima ovijeh naroda, koje ti Gospod Bog tvoj daje u našljedstvo, ne ostavi u životu nijedne duše žive.
17 But shalt vtterly destroy them: to wit, the Hittites, and the Amorites, the Canaanites, and the Perizzites, the Hiuites, and the Iebusites, as the Lord thy God hath commanded thee,
Nego ih zatri sasvijem, Heteje i Amoreje i Hananeje i Ferezeje i Jeveje i Jevuseje, kao što ti je zapovjedio Gospod Bog tvoj.
18 That they teache you not to doe after all their abominations, which they haue done vnto their gods, and so ye should sinne against the Lord your God.
Da vas ne nauèe èiniti gadna djela koja èiniše bogovima svojim, i da ne zgriješite Gospodu Bogu svojemu.
19 When thou hast besieged a citie long time, and made warre against it to take it, destroy not the trees therof, by smiting an axe into them: for thou mayest eate of them: therfore thou shalt not cut them downe to further thee in the siege, (for the tree of the field is mans life)
Kad opkoliš kakav grad i budeš dugo pod njim bijuæi ga da bi ga uzeo, ne kvari drveta njegovijeh sjekirom; jer možeš s njih jesti, zato ih ne sijeci; jer drvo poljsko je li èovjek da uðe u grad ispred tebe?
20 Onely those trees, which thou knowest are not for meate, those shalt thou destroy and cut downe, and make fortes against the citie that maketh warre with thee, vntil thou subdue it.
Nego drveta koja znaš da im se rod ne jede, njih obaljuj i sijeci i gradi zaklon od grada koji se bije s tobom, dokle ne padne.
