< Deuteronomy 14 >
1 All of you are the children of the LORD your God: all of you shall not cut yourselves, nor make any baldness between your eyes for the dead.
Vi ste otroci Gospoda, svojega Boga. Ne boste se rezali niti naredili katerekoli plešavosti med svojimi očmi zaradi mrtvega.
2 For you are an holy people unto the LORD your God, and the LORD has chosen you to be an exclusive people unto himself, above all the nations that are upon the earth.
Kajti ti si sveto ljudstvo Gospoda, svojega Boga in Gospod te je izbral, da bi mu bil izvoljeno ljudstvo nad vsemi narodi, ki so na zemlji.
3 You shall not eat any abominable thing.
Ne boš jedel kakršnekoli gnusne stvari.
4 These are the beasts which all of you shall eat: the ox, the sheep, and the goat,
To so živali, ki jih boš jedel: vol, ovca, koza,
5 The hart, and the roebuck, and the fallow deer, and the wild goat, and the pygarg, and the wild ox, and the chamois.
jelen, srnjak, damjak, divja koza, antilopa, divji vol in gams.
6 And every beast that parts the hoof, and cleaves the cleft into two claws, and chews the cud among the beasts, that all of you shall eat.
Vsako žival, ki deli kopito in ima parklje razklane na dvoje in prežvekuje med živalmi, to boste jedli.
7 Nevertheless these all of you shall not eat of them that chew the cud, or of them that divide the cloven hoof; as the camel, and the hare, and the coney: for they chew the cud, but divide not the hoof; therefore they are unclean unto you.
Vendar teh ne boste jedli izmed teh, ki prežvekujejo ali izmed teh, ki delijo kopito, kot so kamela, zajec in kunec, kajti prežvekujejo, toda ne delijo kopita, zato so vam nečiste.
8 And the swine, because it divides the hoof, yet chews not the cud, it is unclean unto you: all of you shall not eat of their flesh, nor touch their dead carcass.
In svinjo, ker ta deli kopito, vendar ne prežvekuje, ta vam je nečista. Ne boste jedli od njihovega mesa niti se ne boste dotaknili njihovega mrtvega trupla.
9 These all of you shall eat of all that are in the waters: all that have fins and scales shall all of you eat:
Te boste jedli od vsega, kar je v vodah: jedli boste vse, ki imajo plavuti in luske.
10 And whatsoever has not fins and scales all of you may not eat; it is unclean unto you.
Karkoli pa nima plavuti in lusk ne smete jesti, to vam je nečisto.
11 Of all clean birds all of you shall eat.
Jedli boste od vseh čistih ptic.
12 But these are they of which all of you shall not eat: the eagle, and the vulture, and the buzzard,
Toda ti so tisti, od katerih ne boste jedli: orel, brkati ser, ribji orel,
13 And the vulture, and the kite, and the vulture after his kind,
črni škarnik, kragulj, jastreb po njegovi vrsti,
14 And every raven after his kind,
vsak krokar po njegovi vrsti,
15 And the owl, and the night hawk, and the cuckoo, and the hawk after his kind,
sova, nočni sokol, kukavica, sokol po njegovi vrsti,
16 The little owl, and the great owl, and the swan,
majhna sova, velika sova, labod,
17 And the pelican, and the carrion vulture, and the cormorant,
pelikan, egiptovski jastreb, kormoran,
18 And the stork, and the heron after her kind, and the lapwing, and the bat.
štorklja, čaplja po svoji vrsti, smrdokavra in netopir.
19 And every creeping thing that flies is unclean unto you: they shall not be eaten.
Vsaka plazeča stvar, ki leti, vam je nečista, teh naj se ne jé.
20 But of all clean fowls all of you may eat.
Toda od vse čiste perjadi lahko jeste.
21 All of you shall not eat of anything that dies of itself: you shall give it unto the stranger that is in your gates, that he may eat it; or you may sell it unto an foreigner: for you are an holy people unto the LORD your God. You shall not seethe a kid in his mother's milk.
Od nobene stvari, ki pogine sama od sebe, ne boste jedli. Dal jo boš tujcu, ki je v tvojih velikih vratih, da bo to lahko jedel, oziroma jo lahko prodaš neznancu, kajti ti si sveto ljudstvo Gospodu, svojemu Bogu. Kozlička ne boš kuhal v mleku njegove matere.
22 You shall truly tithe all the increase of your seed, that the field brings forth year by year.
Resnično boš desetinil ves donos svojega semena, ki ti ga polje prinaša leto za letom.
23 And you shall eat before the LORD your God, in the place which he shall choose to place his name there, the tithe of your corn, of your wine, and of your oil, and the firstlings of your herds and of your flocks; that you may learn to fear the LORD your God always.
Pred Gospodom, svojim Bogom, na kraju, ki ga je on izbral, da tam namesti svoje ime, boš jedel desetino svojega žita, svojega vina, svojega olja in prvence svojih čred in svojih tropov, da se lahko naučiš vedno bati se Gospoda, svojega Boga.
24 And if the way be too long for you, so that you are not able to carry it; or if the place be too far from you, which the LORD your God shall choose to set his name there, when the LORD your God has blessed you:
Če pa je pot zate predolga, tako da tega ne moreš nesti, ali če je kraj, ki ga bo Gospod, tvoj Bog, izbral, da tam postavi svoje ime, predaleč od tebe, ko te je Gospod, tvoj Bog, blagoslovil,
25 Then shall you turn it into money, and bind up the money in your hand, and shall go unto the place which the LORD your God shall choose:
potem boš to spremenil v denar in denar povezal v svojo roko in boš šel na kraj, ki ga bo Gospod, tvoj Bog, izbral,
26 And you shall bestow that money for whatsoever your soul lusts after, for oxen, or for sheep, or for wine, or for strong drink, or for whatsoever your soul desires: and you shall eat there before the LORD your God, and you shall rejoice, you, and your household,
in ti boš ta denar dal, za karkoli tvoja duša poželi. Za vole ali za ovce ali za vino ali za močno pijačo ali za karkoli, kar tvoja duša poželi in jedel boš tam pred Gospodom, svojim Bogom in veselil se boš ti in tvoja družina
27 And the Levite that is within your gates; you shall not forsake him; for he has no part nor inheritance with you.
in Lévijevec, ki je znotraj tvojih velikih vrat. Ne boš ga zapustil, kajti on nima niti deleža niti dediščine s teboj.
28 At the end of three years you shall bring forth all the tithe of your increase the same year, and shall lay it up within your gates:
Ob koncu treh let boš prinesel vso desetino svojega pridelka istega leta in to boš položil znotraj svojih velikih vrat
29 And the Levite, (because he has no part nor inheritance with you, ) and the stranger, and the fatherless, and the widow, which are within your gates, shall come, and shall eat and be satisfied; that the LORD your God may bless you in all the work of your hand which you do.
in Lévijevec (ker nima niti deleža niti dediščine s teboj) in tujec, sirota in vdova, ki so znotraj tvojih velikih vrat, bodo prišli, jedli in bodo nasičeni, da te Gospod, tvoj Bog, lahko blagoslovi pri vsem delu tvoje roke, ki ga počneš.
