Deuteronomy 25
1 If there is a controversy between men, and they come to judgment, and the judges judge them; then they shall justify the righteous, and condemn the wicked;
Če je polemika med ljudmi in pridejo na sodbo, da bi jim sodniki lahko sodili, potem bodo opravičili pravičnega in obsodili zlobnega.
2 and it shall be if the wicked man deserves to be beaten, that the judge shall make him lie down and be beaten in his presence with a number of stripes, according to his guilt.
Zgodilo se bo, če bo zloben človek vreden, da bi bil pretepen, da mu bo sodnik povzročil, da se uleže in da bo z določenim številom udarcev pretepen pred njegovim obrazom, glede na njegovo krivdo.
3 He may give him forty stripes and no more. Otherwise, if he should go on and beat him with more stripes than these, your brother will be humiliated in your eyes.
Štirideset udarcev mu lahko naloži in ne več, da se ti tvoj brat ne bi zdel onečaščen, če bi prekoračil in ga pretepel z mnogimi udarci nad temi.
4 You shall not muzzle the ox when he treads out the grain.
Ne boš zavezal gobca volu, kadar mane žito.
5 If brothers dwell together, and one of them die, and have no son, the wife of the dead shall not be married outside to a stranger: her husband's brother shall go in to her, and take her to him as wife, and perform the duty of a husband's brother to her.
Če bratje prebivajo skupaj in eden izmed njih umre in nima otroka, se žena mrtvega ne bo poročila zunaj, s tujcem. Njen svak bo šel noter k njej in jo vzel k sebi za ženo in ji izpolnil dolžnost soprogovega brata.
6 It shall be, that the firstborn whom she bears shall succeed in the name of his brother who is dead, that his name not be blotted out of Israel.
Zgodilo se bo, da bo prvorojenec, ki ga ona rodi, nasledil ime njegovega brata, ki je mrtev, da njegovo ime ne bo izbrisano iz Izraela.
7 If the man doesn't want to take his brother's wife, then his brother's wife shall go up to the gate to the elders, and say, "My husband's brother refuses to raise up to his brother a name in Israel; he will not perform the duty of a husband's brother to me."
Če pa mož ne mara vzeti svakinje, potem naj gre žena njegovega brata gor k velikim vratom do starešin in reče: ›Brat mojega soproga odklanja, da bi svojemu bratu vzdignil ime v Izraelu; noče izpolniti dolžnosti brata mojega soproga.‹
8 Then the elders of his city shall call him, and speak to him: and if he stand, and say, "I do not want to take her";
Potem ga bodo starešine njegovega mesta poklicali in mu govorili. Če pa se temu zoperstavi in reče: ›Ne maram je vzeti, ‹
9 then his brother's wife shall come to him in the presence of the elders, and loose his shoe from off his foot, and spit in his face; and she shall answer and say, "So shall it be done to the man who does not build up his brother's house."
potem bo žena njegovega brata prišla k njemu v prisotnosti starešin in sezula njegov čevelj iz njegovega stopala in pljunila v njegov obraz in odgovorila ter rekla: ›Tako bo storjeno tistemu možu, ki noče graditi hiše svojega brata.‹
10 His name shall be called in Israel, The house of him who has his shoe untied.
Njegovo ime bo v Izraelu imenovano: ›Hiša tistega, ki je sezut.‹
11 When men strive together one with another, and the wife of the one draws near to deliver her husband out of the hand of him who strikes him, and puts forth her hand, and takes him by the private parts;
Kadar se možje skupaj prepirajo drug z drugim in se žena enega približa, da bi svojega soproga osvobodila iz roke tistega, ki ga udarja in iztegne svojo roko, da ga zgrabi za njegove genitalije,
12 then you shall cut off her hand, your eye shall have no pity.
potem boš odsekal njeno roko, tvoje oko se je ne bo usmililo.
13 You shall not have in your bag diverse weights, a great and a small.
V svoji torbi ne boš imel različnih uteži, velike in male.
14 You shall not have in your house diverse measures, a great and a small.
V svoji hiši ne boš imel različnih mer, velike in male.
15 You shall have a perfect and just weight. You shall have a perfect and just measure, that your days may be long in the land which the LORD your God gives you.
Temveč boš imel popolno in pravično utež, popolno in pravično mero boš imel, da bodo tvoji dnevi lahko podaljšani v deželi, ki ti jo daje Gospod, tvoj Bog.
16 For all who do such things, all who do unrighteously, are an abomination to the LORD your God.
Kajti vsi, ki počno takšne stvari, in vsi, ki počno nepravično, so ogabnost Gospodu, tvojemu Bogu.
17 Remember what Amalek did to you by the way as you came forth out of Egypt;
Spomni se kaj ti je po poti storil Amálek, ko ste izšli iz Egipta,
18 how he met you by the way, and struck the hindmost of you, all who lagged behind you, when you were faint and weary; and he did not fear God.
kako te je srečal po poti in udaril najbolj zadnje od tebe, torej vse, kar je bilo slabotno za teboj, ko si bil ti slaboten in utrujen, on pa se ni bal Boga.
19 Therefore it shall be, when the LORD your God has given you rest from all your enemies all around, in the land which the LORD your God gives you for an inheritance to possess it, that you shall blot out the memory of Amalek from under the sky; you shall not forget.
Zato bo, ko ti bo Gospod, tvoj Bog, dal počitek pred vsemi tvojimi sovražniki naokoli, v deželi, ki ti jo daje Gospod, tvoj Bog, za dediščino, da jo vzameš v last, da boš izpod neba izbrisal spomin na Amáleka. Tega ne boš pozabil.
