< Deuteronomy 21 >

1 “Suppose someone has been murdered in a field in the land that Yahweh our God is giving to you, and you do not know who killed that person.
Když by nalezen byl zabitý (v zemi, kterouž Hospodin Bůh tvůj dává tobě, abys dědičně vládl jí), ležící na poli, a nebylo by vědíno, kdo by ho zabil,
2 [If that happens], your elders and judges must go out to where that person’s corpse was found and measure the distance from there to each of the nearby towns.
Tedy vyjdou starší tvoji a soudcové tvoji, a měřiti budou k městům, kteráž jsou vůkol toho zabitého.
3 Then the elders in the town that is closest to where the corpse was found must select a young cow that has never been used for doing work.
A když nalezeno bude město nejbližší toho zabitého, tedy vezmou starší města toho jalovici z stáda, kteréž ještě nebylo užíváno, a kteráž netáhla ve jhu.
4 They must take it to a place near a stream where the ground has never been plowed or planted. They must break its neck there in that valley.
I uvedou starší toho města jalovici tu do údolí pustého, kteréž nikdy nebylo děláno aneb oseto, a setnou šíji jalovice v tom údolí.
5 The priests must go there also, because Yahweh our God has chosen them from the tribe of Levi to serve him and to be his representatives [MTY] when they bless people. And he has also chosen them to settle disputes in which someone has been injured.
Potom přistoupí kněží synové Léví; (nebo je Hospodin Bůh tvůj vyvolil, aby přisluhovali jemu, a požehnání dávali ve jménu Hospodinovu, vedlé jejichž výpovědi stane všeliká rozepře a každá rána.)
6 The elders from the closest town must wash their hands over the young cow whose neck was broken,
Všickni také starší toho města, kteříž jsou nejbližší toho zabitého, umyjí ruce své nad jalovicí sťatou v tom údolí,
7 and they must say, ‘We did not murder this person [MTY], and we did not see who did it.
A osvědčovati budou, řkouce: Nevylilyť jsou ruce naše krve té, aniž oči naše viděly vražedlníka.
8 Yahweh, forgive us, your Israeli people whom you rescued [from Egypt]. Do not consider (us to be guilty/that we should be punished because) of murdering someone who (is innocent/had not done something that is wrong). Instead, forgive us.’
Očisť lid svůj Izraelský, kterýž jsi vykoupil, Hospodine, a nepřičítej krve nevinné lidu svého Izraelskému. I bude sňata s nich vina té krve.
9 By doing that, you will be doing what Yahweh considers to be right, and you will not be considered to be guilty for murdering that person.”
Ty pak odejmeš krev nevinnou z prostředku svého, když učiníš, což pravého jest před očima Hospodinovýma.
10 “When you [soldiers] go to fight against your enemies, and Yahweh our God enables you to defeat them [IDM], and (they become your prisoners/you capture them),
Když bys vytáhl na vojnu proti nepřátelům svým, a dal by je Hospodin Bůh tvůj v ruce tvé, a zajal bys z nich mnohé;
11 one of you may see among them a beautiful woman that he likes, and he may want to marry her.
Uzříš-li mezi zajatými ženu krásného oblíčeje, a zamiluješ ji, tak abys ji sobě vzal za manželku:
12 He should take her to his home, and there she must shave [all the hair off] her head and cut her fingernails [to signify that now she does not belong to her people-group any more, but instead she is becoming an Israeli].
Uvedeš ji do domu svého, i oholí sobě hlavu, a obřeže nehty své;
13 She must take off the clothes that she was wearing when she was captured, [and put on Israeli clothes]. She must stay in that man’s house and mourn for a month because of [leaving] her parents. After that, he will be allowed to marry her.
A složíc roucho své s sebe, v kterémž jest jata, zůstane v domě tvém, a plakati bude otce svého i matky své za celý měsíc; a potom vejdeš k ní, a budeš její manžel, a ona bude manželka tvá.
14 Later, if he no longer is pleased with her, he will be permitted to allow her to leave him. But because she was forced to have sex with him, he will not be allowed to treat her like a slave [and sell her to someone else].”
Pakliť by se nelíbila, tedy propustíš ji svobodnou; ale nikoli neprodávej jí za peníze, ani nekupč jí, poněvadž jsi jí ponížil.
15 “Suppose that a man has two wives, but he likes one of them and dislikes the other one. And suppose that they both give birth to sons, and the oldest son is the child of the woman that he does not like.
Měl-li by kdo dvě ženy, jednu v milosti a druhou v nenávisti, a zplodily by mu syny, milá i nemilá, a byl-li by syn prvorozený nemilé:
16 On the day when that man decides how he will divide his possessions for his sons to possess [after he dies], he must not favor the son of the wife that he loves by giving him [a bigger share, ] the share that the older son should receive.
Tedy když dědice ustavovati bude nad tím, což by měl, nebude moci dáti práva prvorozenství synu milé před synem prvorozeným nemilé,
17 He must give to the older son, the son of the wife whom he does not like, twice as much of his possessions. That son is his firstborn son, and he must be given the share that he should receive because of his being that man’s firstborn son.”
Ale prvorozeného syna nemilé při prvorozenství zůstaví, a dá jemu dva díly ze všeho, což by měl; nebo on jest počátek síly jeho, jeho jest právo prvorozenství.
18 “Suppose there is a boy who is very stubborn and always (rebelling against/disobeying) [his parents], and who will not heed what they say to him. And suppose that they punish him but he still does not pay attention to what they tell him [MTY].
Měl-li by kdo syna zpurného a protivného, ješto by neposlouchal hlasu otce svého a hlasu matky své, a jsa trestán, neuposlechl by jich:
19 If that happens, his parents must take him to the (gate of/central meeting place in) the city where he lives and have him stand in front of the elders of the city.
Tedy vezmouce ho otec i matka jeho, vyvedou jej k starším města svého, k bráně místa přebývání svého,
20 Then the parents must say to the elders of that city, ‘This son of ours is stubborn and always rebelling against us. He will not pay attention to what we tell him [MTY]. He wastes a lot of money (OR, eats too much food) and gets drunk.’
A řeknou starším města svého: Syn náš tento, jsa zpurný a protivný, neposlouchá hlasu našeho, žráč a opilec jest.
21 Then all the elders of that city must execute him by throwing stones at him. By doing that, you will get rid of this evil practice among you. And everyone in Israel will hear [about what happened] and they will be afraid [to do what he did].”
Tehdy všickni lidé města toho uházejí jej kamením a umřeť; a tak odejmeš zlé z prostředku svého, a všecken Izrael uslyšíce, báti se budou.
22 “If someone is executed for having committed a crime for which he deserves to die, and you hang his corpse on a post,
Když by kdo zhřešil, že by hoden byl smrti, a byl by odsouzen k ní a pověsil bys ho na dřevě:
23 you must not allow his corpse to remain there all night. You must bury it on the day that he died, because [God] has cursed anyone whose corpse is allowed to remain on a post. [You must bury the corpse that day], in order that you do not defile the land that Yahweh our God is giving to you.”
Nezůstane přes noc tělo jeho na dřevě, ale hned v ten den pochováš jej, nebo zlořečený jest před Bohem pověšený; protož nepoškvrňuj země své, kterouž Hospodin Bůh tvůj dává tobě v dědictví.
