Numbers 19
1 Yahweh spoke to Moses and Aaron. He said,
Jahve reče Mojsiju i Aronu:
2 “This is a statute, a law which I am commanding you: Say to the people of Israel that they must bring to you a red heifer without flaw or blemish, and which has never carried a yoke.
“Ovo je zakonska odredba što ju je Jahve naredio: Reci Izraelcima neka ti dovedu crvenu junicu, zdravu, na kojoj nema mane i na koju još nije stavljan jaram.
3 Give the heifer to Eleazar the priest. He must bring it outside the camp, and someone must kill it in front of him.
A vi je predajte svećeniku Eleazaru. Neka se zatim izvede izvan tabora i zakolje pred njim.
4 Eleazar the priest must take some of its blood with his finger and sprinkle it seven times toward the front of the tent of meeting.
Svećenik Eleazar neka uzme njezine krvi na svoj prst pa njome poškropi sedam puta prema pročelju Šatora sastanka.
5 Another priest must burn the heifer in his sight. He must burn its hide, flesh, and its blood with its dung.
Neka se onda junica spali na njegove oči; neka joj se spale: koža, meso, krv i nečist.
6 The priest must take cedarwood, hyssop, and scarlet wool, and throw it all into the middle of the burning heifer.
Potom neka svećenik uzme cedrovine, izopa i crvenoga prediva pa ih baci usred vatre gdje se krava spaljuje.
7 Then he must wash his clothes and bathe in water. Then he may come into the camp, where he will remain unclean until the evening.
Neka svećenik opere svoju odjeću, a svoje tijelo u vodi okupa. Poslije toga neka se svećenik vrati u tabor, ali neka je nečist do večeri.
8 The one who has burned the heifer must wash his clothes in water and bathe in water. He will remain unclean until the evening.
I onaj koji ju je spaljivao neka svoju odjeću opere i okupa svoje tijelo u vodi te bude nečist do večeri.
9 Someone who is clean must gather up the heifer's ashes and put them outside the camp in a clean place. These ashes must be kept for the community of the people of Israel. They will mix the ashes with water for purification from sin, since the ashes were from a sin offering.
A jedan čist čovjek neka pokupi pepeo od junice pa ga pohrani izvan tabora na čisto mjesto da se čuva izraelskoj zajednici za vodu očišćenja. To je žrtva okajnica.
10 The one who gathered the heifer's ashes must wash his clothes. He will remain unclean until the evening. This will be a permanent law for the people of Israel and the foreigners who stay with them.
I onaj koji skupi pepeo od junice neka opere svoju odjeću i bude nečist do večeri. Neka to bude trajan zakon i za Izraelce i za stranca koji među njima boravi.”
11 Whoever touches the dead body of any man will be unclean for seven days.
“Tko se dotakne mrtva ljudskog tijela neka je nečist sedam dana.
12 Such a person must purify himself on the third day and on the seventh day. Then he will be clean. But if he does not purify himself the third day, then he will not be clean on the seventh day.
Takav neka se opere tom vodom trećega dana i sedmoga dana pa će biti čist. Ako se ne opere trećega dana i sedmoga dana, neće biti čist.
13 Whoever touches a dead person, the body of a man who has died, and does not purify himself—this person defiles Yahweh's tabernacle. That person must be cut off from Israel because the water for impurity was not sprinkled on him. He will remain unclean; his uncleanness will remain on him.
Tko se dotakne mrtvaca, tijela preminula čovjeka, a ne opere se, oskvrnjuje Jahvino prebivalište. Takav neka se iskorijeni iz Izraela. Budući da vodom za očišćenje nije bio poliven, nečist je; njegova je nečistoća još na njemu.”
14 This is the law for when someone dies in a tent. Everyone who goes into the tent and everyone who is already in the tent will be unclean for seven days.
“Ovo je zakon kad koji čovjek umre u šatoru; tko god uđe u šator i tko god bude u šatoru neka je nečist sedam dana.
15 Every open container with no cover becomes unclean.
Svaka otvorena posuda koja ne bude zatvorena poklopcem neka je nečista.
16 Similarly, anyone outside a tent who touches someone who has been killed with a sword, any other dead body, a human bone, or a grave—that person will be unclean for seven days.
A na otvorenu polju tko se god dotakne poginuloga od mača, ili mrtvaca, ili ljudskih kostiju, ili groba neka je nečist sedam dana.
17 Do this for the unclean person: Take some ashes from the burnt sin offering and mix them in a jar with fresh water.
Neka se za onoga koji se onečistio uzme pepela od životinje spaljene za okajnicu i na nj, u kakvu sudu, nalije žive vode.
18 Someone who is clean must then take hyssop, dip it in the water, and sprinkle it on the tent, on all the containers inside the tent, on the persons who were there, and on anyone who touched the bone, the one who was killed, the one who died, or the grave.
Onda neka čist čovjek uzme izopa, zamoči ga u vodu te poškropi po šatoru, po svemu posuđu, po ljudima koji su tu bili, po onome koji se dotakao kostiju, ili ubijenoga, ili preminuloga, ili groba.
19 On the third day and on the seventh day, the clean person must sprinkle the unclean person. On the seventh day the unclean person must purify himself. He must wash his clothes and bathe in water. At evening he will become clean.
Neka čisti čovjek škropi nečistoga trećega i sedmoga dana. Tako će ga na sedmi dan očistiti. Taj onda neka opere svoju odjeću, okupa se u vodi i neka je navečer čist.
20 But anyone who remains unclean, who refuses to purify himself—that person will be cut off from the community, because he has defiled Yahweh's sanctuary. The water for impurity has not been sprinkled on him; he remains unclean.
A bude li tko nečist pa se ne očisti, neka se iskorijeni iz zajednice, jer je oskvrnuo Jahvino svetište; vodom za očišćenje nije bio poliven; nečist je!
21 This will be an ongoing law concerning these situations. The one who sprinkles the water for impurity must wash his clothes. The one who touches the water for impurity will become unclean until evening.
Neka im i ovo bude trajnim zakonom: i onaj koji je škropio vodom za očišćenje neka opere svoju odjeću; i onaj koji je dirnuo vodu za očišćenje neka je nečist do večeri.
22 Whatever the unclean person touches will become unclean. The person who touches it will become unclean until evening.”
Čega se god nečisti dotakne neka je nečisto; a osoba koja se njega dotakne neka je nečista do večeri.”
