Deuteronomy 15
1 At the end of [every] seven years thou shalt make a release.
Na završetku sedme godine opraštaj dugove.
2 And this [is] the manner of the release: Every creditor that lendeth [aught] to his neighbor shall release [it]; he shall not exact [it] of his neighbor, or of his brother; because it is called the LORD'S release.
Ovako neka bude opraštanje: neka svatko oprosti dužniku svoje potraživanje; neka ne utjeruje duga od svoga bližnjega ni od svoga brata kad se jednom proglasi Jahvino otpuštanje dugova.
3 Of a foreigner thou mayest exact [it again]: but [that] which is thine with thy brother thy hand shall release:
Možeš tražiti od tuđina, ali ono što se tvoga nađe kod tvoga brata treba da otpustiš,
4 Save when there shall be no poor among you; for the LORD shall greatly bless thee in the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee [for] an inheritance to possess it:
da ne bude siromaha kod tebe. TÓa Jahve će te obilno blagoslivljati u zemlji koju ti Jahve, Bog tvoj, daje u baštinu da je zaposjedneš,
5 Only if thou shalt carefully hearken to the voice of the LORD thy God, to observe to do all these commandments which I command thee this day.
samo ako budeš dobro slušao glas Jahve, Boga svoga, držeći i vršeći sve ove zapovijedi što ti ih danas naređujem.
6 For the LORD thy God shall bless thee, as he promised thee: and thou shalt lend to many nations, but thou shalt not borrow; and thou shalt reign over many nations, but they shall not reign over thee.
Jahve, Bog tvoj, blagoslivljat će te kako ti je obećao te ćeš moći zajmove davati mnogim narodima, a sam ih nećeš morati uzimati; i nad mnogim ćeš narodima vladati, dok oni nad tobom neće gospodariti.
7 If there shall be among you a poor man of one of thy brethren within any of thy gates in thy land which the LORD the God giveth thee, thou shalt not harden thy heart, nor shut thy hand from thy poor brother:
Nađe li se kod tebe kakav siromah, netko od tvoje braće u kojem god gradu u zemlji što ti je Jahve, Bog tvoj, dadne, ne budi tvrda srca niti zatvaraj svoje ruke prema svome siromašnome bratu,
8 But thou shalt open thy hand wide to him, and shalt surely lend him sufficient for his need, [in that] which he wanteth.
nego mu širom rastvori svoju ruku i spremno mu daj što mu nedostaje.
9 Beware that there be not a thought in thy wicked heart, saying, The seventh year, the year of release, is at hand; and thy eye shall be evil against thy poor brother, and thou shalt give him naught; and he shall cry to the LORD against thee, and it shall be sin to thee.
Čuvaj se da ti se u srcu ne porodi opaka misao te rekneš: 'Sedma se godina, godina otpuštanja dugova, već približuje' - i da prijekim okom pogledaš svoga siromašnog brata i ništa mu ne dadneš. On bi zazvao Jahvu protiv tebe i grijeh bi bio na tebi.
10 Thou shalt surely give him, and thy heart shall not be grieved when thou givest to him: because that for this thing the LORD thy God shall bless thee in all thy works, and in all that thou puttest thy hand to.
Daj mu rado, a ne da ti srce bude zlovoljno kad mu daješ, jer će te zbog toga blagoslivljati Jahve, Bog tvoj, u svakom poslu tvome i u svakom pothvatu ruku tvojih.
11 For the poor shall never cease from the land: therefore I command thee, saying, Thou shalt open thy hand wide to thy brother, to thy poor, and to thy needy, in thy land.
Kako siromaha nikad neće nestati iz zemlje, zapovijedam ti: širom otvaraj svoju ruku svome bratu, svome siromahu i potrebitu u zemlji svojoj.
12 [And] if thy brother, a Hebrew man, or a Hebrew woman, shall be sold to thee, and serve thee six years; then in the seventh year thou shalt let him go free from thee.
Ako se tebi proda brat tvoj - Hebrejac ili Hebrejka - neka ti služi šest godina, a sedme ga godine otpusti od sebe slobodna.
13 And when thou sendest him out free from thee, thou shalt not let him depart empty:
Kad ga slobodna od sebe otpustiš, ne šalji ga praznih ruku.
14 Thou shalt furnish him liberally out of thy flock, and out of thy floor, and out of thy wine-press: [of that] with which the LORD thy God hath blessed thee thou shalt give to him.
Daruj ga čime između stoke svoje, s gumna svoga i iz badnja svoga; čime te već Jahve, Bog tvoj, blagoslovio, od toga i njemu daj.
15 And thou shalt remember that thou wast a bond-man in the land of Egypt, and the LORD thy God redeemed thee: therefore I command thee this thing this day.
Sjećaj se kako si bio rob u zemlji egipatskoj i kako te Jahve, Bog tvoj, otkupio. Zato ti ovo zapovijedam danas.
16 And it shall be, if he shall say to thee, I will not leave thee; because he loveth thee and thy house, because he is well with thee;
Ali ako ti on kaže: 'Neću da odlazim od tebe', jer voli tebe i dom tvoj i jer mu je kod tebe bilo dobro -
17 Then thou shalt take an awl, and thrust [it] through his ear into the door, and he shall be thy servant for ever. And also to thy maid-servant thou shalt do likewise.
uzmi tada šilo i probuši mu uho na vratima, i neka ti bude robom zauvijek! Tako isto učini i sa svojom sluškinjom.
18 It shall not seem hard to thee, when thou sendest him away free from thee; for he hath been of double the worth of a hired servant [to thee], in serving thee six years: and the LORD thy God shall bless thee in all that thou doest.
Kad ga budeš otpuštao od sebe slobodna, neka ti ne bude teško, jer je zavrijedio dvostruku najamničku plaću za šest godina što ti je služio. Zato će te Jahve, Bog tvoj, blagosloviti u svemu što budeš radio.
19 All the firstling males that come of thy herd and of thy flock thou shalt sanctify to the LORD thy God: thou shalt do no work with the firstling of thy bullock, nor shear the firstling of thy sheep.
Sve muške prvine što ih omladi tvoja krupna i sitna stoka posveti Jahvi, Bogu svome! Stoga vola prvenca nemoj uprezati niti strići prvenca od svoje sitne stoke.
20 Thou shalt eat [it] before the LORD thy God year by year in the place which the LORD shall choose, thou and thy household.
Blaguj ga ti i tvoj dom svake godine u nazočnosti Jahve, Boga svoga, u mjestu što ga odabere Jahve.
21 And if there is [any] blemish in it, [as if it is] lame, or blind, [or hath] any ill blemish, thou shalt not sacrifice it to the LORD thy God.
Ali ako bi imali kakvu manu, ako bi bili hromi ili slijepi ili imali kakvu god ružnu manu, nemoj ih žrtvovati Jahvi, Bogu svomu!
22 Thou shalt eat it within thy gates: the unclean and the clean [person shall eat it] alike, as the roebuck, and as the hart.
Pojedi ih u svojoj kući. I nečist i čist mogu ih jesti, kao srnu i jelena.
23 Only thou shalt not eat its blood; thou shalt pour it upon the ground as water.
Jedino krvi njihove ne smiješ jesti! Istoči je na zemlju kao vodu.
