Deuteronomy 25
1 If there be a controversy between men, and they come to judgment, that the judges may judge them; then they shall justify the righteous, and condemn the wicked.
Kad je raspra meðu ljudima, pa doðu na sud da im sude, tada pravoga neka opravdaju a krivoga neka osude.
2 And it shall be, if the wicked man be worthy to be beaten, that the judge shall cause him to lie down, and to be beaten before his face, according to his fault, by a certain number.
I ako krivi zaslužuje boj, tada sudija neka zapovjedi da ga povale i biju pred njim, na broj prema krivici njegovoj.
3 Forty stripes he may give him, and not exceed: lest, if he should exceed, and beat him above these with many stripes, then your brother should seem vile to you.
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 the ox when he treads out the corn.
Nemoj zavezati usta volu kad vrše.
5 If brothers dwell together, and one of them die, and have no child, the wife of the dead shall not marry without to a stranger: her husband’s brother shall go in to her, and take her to him to wife, and perform the duty of an husband’s brother to her.
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 it shall be, that the firstborn which she bears shall succeed in the name of his brother which is dead, that his name be not put out of Israel.
I prvi sin kojega ona rodi neka se nazove imenom brata njegova umrloga, da ne pogine ime njegovo u Izrailju.
7 And if the man like not to take his brother’s wife, then let his brother’s wife go up to the gate to the elders, and say, My husband’s brother refuses to raise up to his brother a name in Israel, he will not perform the duty of my husband’s brother.
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 Then the elders of his city shall call him, and speak to him: and if he stand to it, and say, I like not to take her;
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 shall his brother’s wife come to him in the presence of the elders, and loose his shoe from off his foot, and spit in his face, and shall answer and say, So shall it be done to that man that will not 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 him that has his shoe loosed.
I on neka se zove u Izrailju: dom bosoga.
11 When men strive together one with another, and the wife of the one draws near for to deliver her husband out of the hand of him that smites him, and puts forth her hand, and takes him by the secrets:
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, your eye shall not pity her.
Otsijeci joj ruku; neka ne žali oko tvoje.
13 You shall not have in your bag divers weights, a great and a small.
Nemoj imati u torbi svojoj dvojaku mjeru, veliku i malu.
14 You shall not have in your house divers measures, a great and a small.
Nemoj imati u kuæi svojoj dvojaku efu, veliku i malu.
15 But you shall have a perfect and just weight, a perfect and just measure shall you have: that your days may be lengthened in the land which the LORD your God gives 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 all that do such things, and all that do unrighteously, are an abomination to the LORD your God.
Jer je gad pred Gospodom Bogom tvojim ko god èini tako, ko god èini krivo.
17 Remember what Amalek did to you by the way, when you were come forth out of Egypt;
Opominji se šta ti je uèinio Amalik na putu kad iðaste iz Misira,
18 How he met you by the way, and smote the hindmost of you, even all that were feeble behind you, when you were faint and weary; and he feared not 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 it shall be, when the LORD your God has given you rest from all your enemies round about, in the land which the LORD your God gives you for an inheritance to possess it, that you shall blot out the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven; you shall not forget it.
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.
