< Leviticus 11 >
1 And the Lord spoke unto Moses and to Aaron, saying unto them,
Jahve reče Mojsiju i Aronu:
2 Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, These are the beasts which ye may eat among all the beasts that are on the earth.
“Ovako kažite Izraelcima: 'Ovo su životinje koje između svih četveronožaca na zemlji možete jesti:
3 Whatsoever divideth the hoof, and is cloven-footed, and cheweth the cud, among the beasts, that may ye eat.
svaku koja ima papke, ali papke razdvojene, i koja preživa možete jesti.
4 But these shall ye not eat, of those that chew the cud, or of those that divide the hoof: the camel; because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he is unclean unto you.
Ali ove, iako preživaju ili papke imaju, ne smijete jesti: devu, jer iako preživa, razdvojena papka nema - za vas je nečista;
5 And the cony; because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he is unclean unto you.
svisca, jer iako preživa, razdvojena papka nema - za vas je nečist;
6 And the hare; because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he is unclean unto you.
arnebeta, iako preživa, razdvojena papka nema - za vas je nečist.
7 And the swine; because he divideth the hoof, and is cloven-footed, but he cheweth not the cud; he is unclean unto you.
A svinja, iako ima papak, i to papak razdvojen, ne preživa - za vas je nečista.
8 Of their flesh shall ye not eat, and their carcass shall ye not touch; they are unclean unto you.
Njihova mesa nemojte jesti niti se njihove strvine doticati - za vas su one nečiste.'”
9 These may ye eat, of all that are in the waters: all that have fins and scales in the waters, in the seas, and in the rivers, them may ye eat.
Od svih vodenih životinja ove možete jesti: sve što živi u vodi, bilo u morima, bilo u rijekama, a ima peraje i ljuske možete jesti.
10 But all that have not fins and scales in the seas, and in the rivers, of whatever moveth in the waters, and of any living thing which is in the waters, shall be an abomination unto you:
A što u morima i rijekama nema peraja i ljusaka - sve životinjice u vodi, sva živa vodena bića - neka su vam odvratna
11 And an abomination shall they remain unto you; of their flesh shall ye not eat, and their carcasses ye shall have in abomination.
i odvratna neka vam ostanu! Mesa od njih nemojte jesti, a njihove strvine držite za odvratnost.
12 Whatsoever hath not fins and scales in the waters, shall be an abomination unto you.
Sve, dakle, što je u vodi a nema peraja i ljusaka neka je za vas odvratno.”
13 And these shall ye have in abomination among the fowls; they shall not be eaten, they are an abomination: The eagle, and the ossifrage, and the osprey,
“Od ptica neka su vam ove odvratne i neka se ne jedu - odvratnost su: orao, orao strvinar i jastreb,
14 And the vulture, and the kite after his kind;
tetrijeb i sokol bilo koje vrste;
15 Every raven after his kind:
gavran svih vrsta;
16 And the ostrich, and the night-hawk, and the cuckoo, and the hawk after his kind;
noj, kobac i galeb; lastavica svake vrste;
17 And the little owl, and the cormorant, and the great owl,
sova, gnjurac, ušara,
18 And the swan, and the pelican, and the gier-eagle,
labud, pelikan, droplja;
19 And the stork, the heron after his kind, and the lapwing, and the bat.
roda, čaplja svake vrste; pupavac i šišmiš.”
20 All flying insects that walk upon four feet, shall be an abomination unto you.
“Svi krilati kukci što hodaju četveronoške neka su vam odvratni!
21 Yet these may ye eat, among all the flying insects that walk on four feet, which have spring-legs above their feet, to leap therewith upon the earth.
Od svih tih krilatih kukaca što hodaju četveronoške možete jesti samo one koji imaju na svojim nožicama listove za skakutanje po zemlji.
22 These of them may ye eat: The locust after its kind, and the sol'am after its kind, and the chargol after its kind, and the chagab after its kind.
Od njih možete jesti: svaku vrstu skakavaca, cvrčaka i zrikavaca.
23 But all flying insects, which have four feet, shall be an abomination unto you;
A svi drugi krilati kukci na četiri nožice neka su vam odvratni!
24 And through these shall ye be rendered unclean: whosoever toucheth the carcass of them shall be unclean until the evening;
I od njih ćete se onečistiti: tko se god dotakne njihove crkotine, neka je nečist do večeri;
25 And whosoever beareth aught of their carcass shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening.
tko god ponese crkotinu bilo koje od njih, neka opere svoju odjeću i nečistim se smatra do večeri;
26 Every species of beast, which divideth the hoof and is not cloven-footed nor cheweth the cud, is unclean unto you: every one that toucheth the same shall be unclean.
i životinje s nerazdvojenim papkom što ne preživaju za vas su nečiste, i tko ih se dotakne neka je nečist!
27 And all that walk upon their paws, among all manner of beasts that walk on four feet, are unclean unto you; whosoever toucheth their carcass shall be unclean until the evening.
Onda, četveronožne životinje koje hodaju na četiri šape za vas su nečiste. Tko se dotakne njihova strva, neka je nečist do večeri.
28 And he that beareth their carcass shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening: unclean shall they be unto you.
A onaj koji ponese njihov strv, neka opere svoju odjeću i bude nečist do večeri. Za vas su one nečiste.”
29 And these shall be unclean unto you among the creeping things that creep upon the earth: The weasel, and the mouse, and the tortoise after its kind,
“Od životinja što po zemlji gmižu neka su za vas ove nečiste: krtica, miš i svaka vrsta guštera;
30 And the hedgehog, and the chameleon, and the lizard, and the snail, and the mole.
zidni macaklin, kameleon, daždevnjak, zelembać i tinšamet.
31 These shall be unclean to you among all that creep: whosoever doth touch them, when they are dead, shall be unclean until the evening.
Te su životinje od svih što gmižu za vas nečiste. Tko ih se mrtvih dotakne neka je nečist do večeri.
32 And every thing upon which any part of them, when they are dead, doth fall, shall be unclean; whether it be any vessel of wood, or raiment, or skin, or sack, every vessel wherewith any work can be done, must be put into water, and it shall be unclean until the evening, when it shall be clean.
A na što koja od njih mrtva padne, neka je onečišćeno: bio to kakav drveni predmet ili odjeća, koža ili vreća. Svaki takav predmet koji se upotrebljava neka se zamoči u vodu i ostane nečist do večeri. Onda će postati čist.
33 And every earthen vessel whereinto any part of them falleth, whatsoever is in it shall be unclean; and itself shall ye break.
Upadne li što od njih u kakvu zemljanu posudu, razbijte je; sve je u njoj onečišćeno.
34 All kinds of food which may be eaten, on which water cometh, shall be unclean: and all drink that may be drunk, shall be rendered unclean in every vessel.
A bilo kakva hrana što se jede, ako na nju kapne voda iz te posude, bit će onečišćena. Svaka tekućina što se pije u svakoj takvoj posudi neka se smatra nečistom.
35 And every thing whereupon any part of their carcass falleth, shall be unclean; an oven, or ranges for pots, shall be broken down, they are unclean; and unclean shall they be unto you.
A sve na što padne bilo što od njihove crkotine neka je nečisto; bude li to peć ili ognjište, neka se sruše: onečišćeni su za vas i neka nečisti budu.
36 Nevertheless, a fountain, or pit, receptacles for water, shall be clean; but he that toucheth their carcass shall be unclean.
A vrelo ili čatrnja koja drži vodu neka se smatraju čistima. Ali tko dirne strvinu životinje neka je nečist.
37 And if any part of their carcass fall upon any sowing-seed which hath been sown, it shall be clean.
Ako što od njihova strva padne na žitno sjemenje što će se sijati, ono ostaje čisto;
38 But if any water be put upon the seed, and any part of their carcass fall thereon, it shall be unclean unto you.
ali ako se sjemenje nakvasi vodom, a onda na nj padne što od njihove crkotine, neka je za vas nečisto.
39 And if any cattle die, which is allowed to you as food: he that toucheth its carcass shall be unclean until the evening.
Ako ugine koja životinja što vam služi za hranu, onaj koji dotakne njezinu strvinu neka je nečist do večeri;
40 And he that eateth of its carcass shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening; he also that beareth its carcass shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening.
a koji pojede od njezine strvine neka opere svoju odjeću i bude nečist do večeri; koji ponese njezinu strvinu neka opere svoju odjeću i bude nečist do večeri.
41 And every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth is an abomination, it shall not be eaten.
Svaka životinja što po tlu gmiže odvratna je. Neka se ne jede!
42 Whatsoever goeth upon the belly, and whatsoever goeth upon four feet, down to whatsoever hath many feet among all creeping things that creep upon the earth, shall ye not eat; for they are an abomination.
Ništa što puže na trbuhu, ništa što god ide na četiri noge ili na više nogu - nikakve puzavce što po tlu gmižu nemojte jesti jer su odvratni!
43 Ye shall not make yourselves abominable with any creeping thing that creepeth; and ye shall not make yourselves unclean with them, that ye should be defiled thereby.
Nemojte sami sebe poganiti svim tim puzavcima što gmižu; ne prljajte se njima, da i vi zbog njih ne postanete nečisti.
44 For I am the Lord your God; ye shall therefore sanctify yourselves, and ye shall be holy; for I am holy: neither shall ye make yourselves unclean with any manner of creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.
Ta ja - Jahve - Bog sam vaš! Posvećujte se, dakle, da sveti budete, jer svet sam ja! Nijednim se puzavcem što po tlu gmiže ne prljajte!
45 For I am the Lord that have brought you up out of the land of Egypt, to be your God; ye shall therefore be holy, for I am holy.
Jest, ja sam Jahve; izveo sam vas iz zemlje egipatske da vam budem Bog. Budite, dakle, sveti jer sam svet ja!”
46 This is the law of the beasts, and of the fowl, and of every living creature that moveth in the waters, and of every creature that creepeth upon the earth:
To je odredba koja se odnosi na ptice i sva živa bića što se u vodi kreću i na sve stvorove koji po zemlji gmižu.
47 To distinguish between the unclean and the clean, and between the beast that may be eaten and the beast that may not be eaten.
Svrha joj je da se razlikuje nečisto od čistoga; životinja koja se može jesti od životinje koja se ne smije jesti.
