Leviticus 20
1 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
Jahve reče Mojsiju:
2 Again, thou shalt say to the children of Israel, Whosoever [he be] of the children of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn in Israel, that giveth [any] of his seed unto Molech; he shall surely be put to death: the people of the land shall stone him with stones.
“Kaži Izraelcima: 'Tko god, Izraelac, ili stranac koji živi s Izraelcima, ustupi svoje čedo Moleku, mora se smaknuti; narod zemlje neka ga kamenuje.
3 And I will set my face against that man, and will cut him off from among his people; because he hath given of his seed unto Molech, to defile my sanctuary, and to profane my holy name.
Ja ću se okrenuti protiv toga čovjeka i odstraniti ga iz njegova naroda, jer je on, ustupivši svoje čedo Moleku, okaljao moje Svetište i obeščastio moje sveto ime.
4 And if the people of the land do any ways hide their eyes from the man, when he giveth of his seed unto Molech, and kill him not:
A ako narod zatvori svoje oči nad tim čovjekom kad svoje čedo ustupi Moleku te ga ne smakne,
5 Then I will set my face against that man, and against his family, and will cut him off, and all that go a whoring after him, to commit whoredom with Molech, from among their people.
ja ću se suprotstaviti tome čovjeku i njegovoj obitelji; odstranit ću ih iz njihova naroda, njega i sve koji poslije njega pođu za Molekom da se podaju bludu s Molekom.
6 And the soul that turneth after such as have familiar spirits, and after wizards, to go a whoring after them, I will even set my face against that soul, and will cut him off from among his people.
Ako se tko obrati na zazivače duhova i vračare da se za njima poda javnom bludu, ja ću se okrenuti protiv takva čovjeka i odstranit ću ga iz njegova naroda.
7 Sanctify yourselves therefore, and be ye holy: for I [am] the LORD your God.
Posvećujte se da budete sveti! TÓa ja sam Jahve, Bog vaš.
8 And ye shall keep my statutes, and do them: I [am] the LORD which sanctify you.
Držite moje zakone i vršite ih. Ja, Jahve, posvećujem vas'.”
9 For every one that curseth his father or his mother shall be surely put to death: he hath cursed his father or his mother; his blood [shall be] upon him.
“Tko god prokune svoga oca i svoju majku, neka se smakne. Jer je oca svoga i majku svoju prokleo, neka njegova krv padne na nj.
10 And the man that committeth adultery with [another] man’s wife, [even he] that committeth adultery with his neighbour’s wife, the adulterer and the adulteress shall surely be put to death.
Čovjek koji počini preljub sa ženom svoga susjeda neka se kazni smrću - i preljubnik i preljubnica.
11 And the man that lieth with his father’s wife hath uncovered his father’s nakedness: both of them shall surely be put to death; their blood [shall be] upon them.
Čovjek koji bi legao sa ženom svoga oca - otkrio bi golotinju svoga oca - neka se oboje kazne smrću, krv njihova neka padne na njih.
12 And if a man lie with his daughter in law, both of them shall surely be put to death: they have wrought confusion; their blood [shall be] upon them.
Legne li tko sa svojom snahom, neka se oboje kazne smrću. Učinili su rodoskvrnuće i neka krv njihova padne na njih.
13 If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood [shall be] upon them.
Ako bi muškarac legao s muškarcem kao što se liježe sa ženom, obojica bi počinila odvratno djelo. Neka se smaknu i krv njihova neka padne na njih.
14 And if a man take a wife and her mother, it [is] wickedness: they shall be burnt with fire, both he and they; that there be no wickedness among you.
Čovjek koji se oženi kćerju i njezinom majkom - krajnja je to pokvarenost! - neka se u vatri spali i on i one, da među vama ne bude pokvarenosti.
15 And if a man lie with a beast, he shall surely be put to death: and ye shall slay the beast.
Čovjek koji bi spolno općio sa životinjom ima se smaknuti. Životinju ubijte!
16 And if a woman approach unto any beast, and lie down thereto, thou shalt kill the woman, and the beast: they shall surely be put to death; their blood [shall be] upon them.
Ako bi se žena primakla bilo kakvoj životinji da se s njom pari, ubij i ženu i životinju. Neka se smaknu i njihova krv neka padne na njih.
17 And if a man shall take his sister, his father’s daughter, or his mother’s daughter, and see her nakedness, and she see his nakedness; it [is] a wicked thing; and they shall be cut off in the sight of their people: he hath uncovered his sister’s nakedness; he shall bear his iniquity.
Čovjek koji bi se oženio svojom sestrom, kćerju svoga oca ili kćerju svoje majke te vidio njezinu golotinju, a ona vidjela njegovu - pogrdno je to djelo! - neka se istrijebe pred očima naroda. Otkrio je golotinju svoje sestre, pa neka snosi i posljedice svoje krivnje.
18 And if a man shall lie with a woman having her sickness, and shall uncover her nakedness; he hath discovered her fountain, and she hath uncovered the fountain of her blood: and both of them shall be cut off from among their people.
Čovjek koji bi legao sa ženom za njezina mjesečnog pranja te otkrio njezinu golotinju - razgolio izvor njezine krvi i ona sama otkrila izvor svoje krvi - neka se oboje odstrane iz svoga naroda.
19 And thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy mother’s sister, nor of thy father’s sister: for he uncovereth his near kin: they shall bear their iniquity.
Ne otkrivaj golotinje sestre svoje majke niti sestre svoga oca - to je otkrivanje golotinje svoga roda, neka snose posljedice svoje krivnje.
20 And if a man shall lie with his uncle’s wife, he hath uncovered his uncle’s nakedness: they shall bear their sin; they shall die childless.
Čovjek koji bi legao sa svojom strinom otkrio bi golotinju svoga strica. Neka snose posljedice svoga grijeha: neka umru bez poroda.
21 And if a man shall take his brother’s wife, it [is] an unclean thing: he hath uncovered his brother’s nakedness; they shall be childless.
Čovjek koji bi se oženio ženom svoga brata - golotinju bi svoga brata otkrio - i to je nečisto. Neka ostanu bez poroda.”
22 Ye shall therefore keep all my statutes, and all my judgments, and do them: that the land, whither I bring you to dwell therein, spue you not out.
“Zato držite sve moje zakone, sve moje naredbe i vršite ih da vas ne ispljune zemlja u koju vas vodim da se u njoj nastanite.
23 And ye shall not walk in the manners of the nation, which I cast out before you: for they committed all these things, and therefore I abhorred them.
Nemojte živjeti po zakonima naroda koje ja ispred vas tjeram. TÓa oni su činili sve to, i zato mi se zgadili.
24 But I have said unto you, Ye shall inherit their land, and I will give it unto you to possess it, a land that floweth with milk and honey: I [am] the LORD your God, which have separated you from [other] people.
A vama sam ja rekao: vi ćete zaposjesti njihovu zemlju; vama ću je predati u posjed - zemlju kojom teče mlijeko i med. Ja sam Jahve, vaš Bog, koji sam vas odvojio od tih naroda.
25 Ye shall therefore put difference between clean beasts and unclean, and between unclean fowls and clean: and ye shall not make your souls abominable by beast, or by fowl, or by any manner of living thing that creepeth on the ground, which I have separated from you as unclean.
Pravite, dakle, razliku između čiste životinje i nečiste; između čiste ptice i nečiste. Nemojte sami sebe opoganjivati ni životinjom, ni pticom, ni bilo čim što zemljom puže: što sam vam ja odlučio kao nečisto.
26 And ye shall be holy unto me: for I the LORD [am] holy, and have severed you from [other] people, that ye should be mine.
Budite mi dakle sveti, jer sam ja, Jahve, svet; ja sam vas odvojio od tih naroda da budete moji.
27 A man also or woman that hath a familiar spirit, or that is a wizard, shall surely be put to death: they shall stone them with stones: their blood [shall be] upon them.
Čovjek ili žena koji među vama postanu zazivači duhova ili vračari neka se kazne smrću; neka se kamenuju i neka njihova krv padne na njih.”
