Deuteronomy 17
1 “You do not sacrifice to your God YHWH ox or sheep in which there is a blemish—any bad thing; for it [is] an abomination [to] your God YHWH.
Gospodu, svojemu Bogu, ne boš žrtvoval nobenega bika ali ovce, na kateri je pomanjkljivost ali kakršnakoli slaba stvar, kajti to je ogabnost Gospodu, tvojemu Bogu.
2 When there is found in your midst, in one of your cities which your God YHWH is giving to you, a man or a woman who does evil in the eyes of your God YHWH by transgressing His covenant,
Če se med vami najdeta mož ali ženska, znotraj katerihkoli izmed tvojih velikih vrat, ki ti jih daje Gospod, tvoj Bog, ki sta storila zlobnost v očeh Gospoda, tvojega Boga, v tem, da sta prestopala njegovo zavezo
3 and he goes and serves other gods, and bows himself to them, and to the sun, or to the moon, or to any of the host of the heavens, which I have not commanded,
in sta šla in služila drugim bogovom in jih oboževala ali sonce ali luno ali katerokoli vojsko neba, česar nisem zapovedal
4 and it has been declared to you, and you have heard, and have searched diligently, and behold, [if] truth, the thing is established; this abomination has been done in Israel—
in ti je to povedano in si o tem slišal in marljivo poizvedoval in glej, če je resnično in je stvar gotova, da je v Izraelu narejena takšna ogabnost,
5 then you have brought out that man or that woman who has done this evil thing, to your gates—the man or the woman—and you have stoned them with stones, and they have died.
potem boš tega moža ali to žensko, ki sta zagrešila to zlobno stvar, pripeljal naprej, k svojim velikim vratom, torej tistega moža ali tisto žensko in ju boš kamnal s kamni, dokler ne umreta.
6 By the mouth of two witnesses or three witnesses is he who is being put to death put to death; he is not put to death by the mouth of one witness;
Po ustih dveh ali treh prič bo tisti, ki je vreden smrti, usmrčen, toda po ustih ene priče ne bo usmrčen.
7 the hand of the witnesses is on him in the first place to put him to death, and the hand of all the people last; and you have put away evil out of your midst.
Roke prič bodo prve nad njim, da ga usmrtijo in potem roke vsega ljudstva. Tako boš odstranil zlo izmed vas.
8 When anything is too hard for you for judgment, between blood and blood, between plea and plea, and between stroke and stroke—matters of strife within your gates—then you have risen and gone up to the place on which your God YHWH fixes,
Če tam vstane zadeva, v sodbi zate pretežka, med krvjo in krvjo, med izgovorom in izgovorom, med udarcem in udarcem, ki so zadeve polemike znotraj tvojih velikih vrat, potem se boš vzdignil in se povzpel na kraj, ki ga bo Gospod, tvoj Bog, izbral
9 and have come to the priests, the Levites, and to the judge who is in those days, and have inquired, and they have declared the word of judgment to you,
in prišel boš k duhovnikom Lévijevcem in k sodniku, ki bo v tistih dneh in povprašal in pokazali ti bodo razsodbo sodbe.
10 and you have done according to the tenor of the word which they declare to you ([they] of that place which YHWH chooses); and you have observed to do according to all that they direct you.
Storil boš glede na razsodbo, ki ti jo bodo pokazali tisti, iz tistega kraja, ki ga bo Gospod izbral in obeleževal boš, da storiš glede na vse, o čemer te obvestijo.
11 According to the tenor of the law which they direct you, and according to the judgment which they say to you, you do; you do not turn aside from the word which they declare to you [to] the right or left.
Storil boš glede na razsodbo postave, ki te jo bodo učili, in glede na sodbo, ki ti jo bodo povedali. Ne boš se odvrnil od obsodbe, ki ti jo bodo pokazali, ne na desno roko niti ne na levo.
12 And the man who acts with presumption, so as not to listen to the priest (who is standing to serve your God YHWH there), or to the judge, even that man has died, and you have put away evil from Israel,
Mož pa, ki bo delal prepotentno in ne bo prisluhnil duhovniku, ki tam stoji, da služi pred Gospodom, tvojim Bogom ali sodniku, celo tisti mož bo umrl, in ti se boš iz Izraela znebil zla.
13 and all the people hear and fear, and do not presume anymore.
In vse ljudstvo bo slišalo in se balo in ne bo več prepotentno ravnalo.
14 When you come into the land which your God YHWH is giving to you, and have possessed it, and dwelt in it, and you have said, Let me set a king over me like all the nations which [are] around me—
Ko prideš v deželo, ki ti jo daje Gospod, tvoj Bog in jo boš vzel v last in boš prebival v njej in boš rekel: ›Nad seboj si bom postavil kralja, kakor je pri vseh narodih naokoli mene, ‹
15 you certainly set a king over you on whom YHWH fixes; you set a king over you from the midst of your brothers; you are not able to set a stranger over you, who is not your brother.
boš vsekakor za kralja nad seboj postavil tistega, ki ga bo izbral Gospod, tvoj Bog. Enega izmed svojih bratov boš postavil za kralja nad seboj. Nad seboj ne smeš postaviti tujca, ki ni tvoj brat.
16 Only, he does not multiply horses for himself, nor cause the people to return to Egypt, so as to multiply horses, seeing YHWH has said to you, You do not add to return in this way anymore.
Toda ta si ne bo množil konj niti ljudstvu ne bo povzročil, da se vrne v Egipt, z namenom, da bi množil konje, ker kakor ti je Gospod rekel: ›Odslej se ne boš več vrnil po tisti poti.‹
17 And he does not multiply wives for himself, and his heart does not turn aside, and he does not exceedingly multiply silver and gold for himself.
Niti si k sebi ne bo množil žená, da njegovega srca ne odvrnejo stran niti k sebi ne bo silno pomnožil srebra in zlata.
18 And it has been, when he sits on the throne of his kingdom, that he has written a copy of this law for himself, on a scroll, from [that] before the priests, the Levites,
In zgodilo se bo, ko sedi na prestolu svojega kraljestva, da si bo zapisal prepis te postave v knjigo iz te, ki je pred duhovniki Lévijevci,
19 and it has been with him, and he has read in it all [the] days of his life, so that he learns to fear his God YHWH, to keep all the words of this law and these statutes—to do them,
in ta bo z njim in iz nje bo bral vse dni svojega življenja, da se bo lahko učil bati se Gospoda, svojega Boga, da ohranja vse besede te postave in te zakone, da jih izvršuje,
20 so that his heart is not high above his brothers, and so as not to turn aside from the command [to] the right or left, so that he prolongs days over his kingdom, he and his sons in the midst of Israel.”
da njegovo srce ne bo povzdignjeno nad njegove brate in da se ne obrne proč od zapovedi, k desni roki ali k levi, z namenom, da lahko podaljša svoje dni v svojem kraljestvu, on in njegovi otroci, v sredi Izraela.
