Deuteronomy 24
1 When a man hath taken a wife, and married her, and it come to pass that she find no favour in his eyes, because he hath found some uncleanness in her: then let him write her a bill of divorcement, and give [it] in her hand, and send her out of his house.
Kada tko uzme ženu i s njome postupi kao muž, a potom na njoj otkrije što ružno te ona više ne nalazi milosti u njegovim očima i on joj napiše otpusno pismo, uruči joj ga i potjera je iz svoje kuće,
2 And when she is departed out of his house, she may go and be another man’s [wife].
a ona izađe iz njegove kuće, ode i pođe za drugoga
3 And [if] the latter husband hate her, and write her a bill of divorcement, and giveth [it] in her hand, and sendeth her out of his house; or if the latter husband die, which took her [to be] his wife;
pa omrzne i tome drugomu te joj i on napiše otpusno pismo, uruči joj ga i otjera je iz svoje kuće - ili pak umre taj koji ju je drugi uzeo -
4 Her former husband, which sent her away, may not take her again to be his wife, after that she is defiled; for that [is] abomination before the LORD: and thou shalt not cause the land to sin, which the LORD thy God giveth thee [for] an inheritance.
tada je, pošto se tako oskvrnula, ne može opet uzeti za ženu onaj prvi muž koji je bijaše otpustio. Bilo bi to odvratno pred Jahvom; ne smiješ uvaljivati u grijeh zemlju koju ti Jahve, Bog tvoj, daje u baštinu.
5 When a man hath taken a new wife, he shall not go out to war, neither shall he be charged with any business: [but] he shall be free at home one year, and shall cheer up his wife which he hath taken.
Kad se tko netom oženi, neka ne ide u vojsku; neka mu se ne dodjeljuje nikakva služba, nego, oslobođen, neka ostane kod kuće godinu dana da razveseljuje ženu koju je doveo.
6 No man shall take the nether or the upper millstone to pledge: for he taketh [a man’s] life to pledge.
Neka se ne uzima u zalog žrvanj, ni gornji ni donji: tÓa time bi se u zalog uzimao sam život.
7 If a man be found stealing any of his brethren of the children of Israel, and maketh merchandise of him, or selleth him; then that thief shall die; and thou shalt put evil away from among you.
Ako se nađe tko da otme koga između svoje braće Izraelaca te postupi s njim kao s robom ili ga proda, taj otmičar neka se smakne! Tako ćeš iskorijeniti zlo iz svoje sredine.
8 Take heed in the plague of leprosy, that thou observe diligently, and do according to all that the priests the Levites shall teach you: as I commanded them, [so] ye shall observe to do.
Javi li se guba, pazi da brižno držiš i vršiš sve što vas pouče levitski svećenici. Držite i vršite što njima naredim.
9 Remember what the LORD thy God did unto Miriam by the way, after that ye were come forth out of Egypt.
Sjećaj se što je Jahve, Bog tvoj, učinio Mirjami na putu kad ste izišli iz Egipta.
10 When thou dost lend thy brother any thing, thou shalt not go into his house to fetch his pledge.
Kada bližnjemu svome daješ bilo kakav zajam, nemoj ulaziti u njegovu kuću da mu uzmeš zalog.
11 Thou shalt stand abroad, and the man to whom thou dost lend shall bring out the pledge abroad unto thee.
Stoj vani, a čovjek komu si dao zajam neka ti iznese zalog van.
12 And if the man [be] poor, thou shalt not sleep with his pledge:
A ako on bude siromah, nemoj lijegati s njegovim zalogom;
13 In any case thou shalt deliver him the pledge again when the sun goeth down, that he may sleep in his own raiment, and bless thee: and it shall be righteousness unto thee before the LORD thy God.
o zalasku sunca moraš mu vratiti zalog da on mogne spavati u svome ogrtaču i tebe blagoslivljati. To će ti biti dobro djelo pred Jahvom, Bogom tvojim.
14 Thou shalt not oppress an hired servant [that is] poor and needy, [whether he be] of thy brethren, or of thy strangers that [are] in thy land within thy gates:
Nemoj zakidati jadnoga i bijednog najamnika, bio on tvoj sunarodnjak ili došljak iz kojega grada u tvojoj zemlji.
15 At his day thou shalt give [him] his hire, neither shall the sun go down upon it; for he [is] poor, and setteth his heart upon it: lest he cry against thee unto the LORD, and it be sin unto thee.
Svaki dan daj mu zaradu prije nego sunce zađe, jer je siromah i za njom uzdiše. Tako neće na te vapiti Jahvi i nećeš sagriješiti.
16 The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, neither shall the children be put to death for the fathers: every man shall be put to death for his own sin.
Neka se očevi ne osuđuju na smrt zbog sinova ni sinovi zbog očeva; neka svatko za svoj grijeh gine.
17 Thou shalt not pervert the judgment of the stranger, [nor] of the fatherless; nor take a widow’s raiment to pledge:
Ne izvrći pravice došljaku ni siroti i ne uzimaj u zalog haljine udovici.
18 But thou shalt remember that thou wast a bondman in Egypt, and the LORD thy God redeemed thee thence: therefore I command thee to do this thing.
Sjećaj se da si bio rob u Egiptu i da te odande izbavio Jahve, Bog tvoj; zato ti nalažem da ovu zapovijed vršiš.
19 When thou cuttest down thine harvest in thy field, and hast forgot a sheaf in the field, thou shalt not go again to fetch it: it shall be for the stranger, for the fatherless, and for the widow: that the LORD thy God may bless thee in all the work of thine hands.
Kad žanješ žito na svojoj njivi pa zaboraviš koji snop na njivi, ne vraćaj se po nj; neka ostane došljaku, siroti i udovici da te Jahve, Bog tvoj, blagoslovi u svakom pothvatu ruku tvojih.
20 When thou beatest thine olive tree, thou shalt not go over the boughs again: it shall be for the stranger, for the fatherless, and for the widow.
Kad jednom omlatiš svoje masline, više iza sebe ne pretražuj; neka to ostane došljaku, siroti i udovici.
21 When thou gatherest the grapes of thy vineyard, thou shalt not glean [it] afterward: it shall be for the stranger, for the fatherless, and for the widow.
Kad obereš svoj vinograd, ne paljetkuj iza sebe; neka to bude za došljaka, sirotu i udovicu.
22 And thou shalt remember that thou wast a bondman in the land of Egypt: therefore I command thee to do this thing.
Sjećaj se kako si bio rob u zemlji egipatskoj; zato ti naređujem da ovu zapovijed vršiš.
