Deuteronomy 12
1 These are the statutes and the ordinances which you shall observe to do in the land which the LORD, the God of your fathers, has given you to possess all the days that you live on the earth.
Ovo su uredbe i zakoni koje æete držati i tvoriti u zemlji koju ti je Gospod Bog otaca tvojih dao da je naslijediš, dokle ste god živi na zemlji.
2 You shall surely destroy all the places in which the nations that you shall dispossess served their gods: on the high mountains, and on the hills, and under every green tree.
Raskopajte sasvijem sva mjesta u kojima su služili bogovima svojim narodi koje æete naslijediti, po visokim brdima i po humovima i pod svakijem zelenijem drvetom.
3 You shall break down their altars, dash their pillars in pieces, and burn their Asherah poles with fire. You shall cut down the engraved images of their gods. You shall destroy their name out of that place.
Oborite oltare njihove i razbijte likove njihove, i lugove njihove popalite ognjem, i rezane bogove njihove izlomite, i istrijebite ime njihovo iz onoga mjesta.
4 You shall not do so to the LORD your God.
Ne èinite tako Gospodu Bogu svojemu.
5 But to the place which the LORD your God shall choose out of all your tribes, to put his name there, you shall seek his habitation, and you shall come there.
Nego ga tražite u mjestu koje izbere Gospod Bog vaš izmeðu svijeh plemena vaših sebi za stan da ondje namjesti ime svoje, i onamo idite.
6 You shall bring your burnt offerings, your sacrifices, your tithes, the wave offering of your hand, your vows, your free will offerings, and the firstborn of your herd and of your flock there.
Onamo nosite žrtve svoje paljenice i druge žrtve svoje i desetke svoje i prinose ruku svojih i zavjete svoje i dragovoljne prinose svoje i prvine od stoke svoje krupne i sitne.
7 There you shall eat before the LORD your God, and you shall rejoice in all that you put your hand to, you and your households, in which the LORD your God has blessed you.
I jedite ondje pred Gospodom Bogom svojim, i veselite se vi i porodice vaše svaèim, za što se prihvatite rukom svojom, èim te blagoslovi Gospod Bog tvoj.
8 You shall not do all the things that we do here today, every man whatever is right in his own eyes;
Ne èinite kako mi sada ovdje èinimo, što je kome drago.
9 for you haven’t yet come to the rest and to the inheritance which the LORD your God gives you.
Jer još nijeste došli do odmora i našljedstva, koje ti daje Gospod Bog tvoj.
10 But when you go over the Jordan and dwell in the land which the LORD your God causes you to inherit, and he gives you rest from all your enemies around you, so that you dwell in safety,
Nego kad prijeðete preko Jordana, i stanete živjeti u zemlji koju vam daje Gospod Bog vaš da je naslijedite, i smiri vas od svijeh neprijatelja vaših unaokolo, te stanete živjeti bez straha,
11 then it shall happen that to the place which the LORD your God shall choose, to cause his name to dwell there, there you shall bring all that I command you: your burnt offerings, your sacrifices, your tithes, the wave offering of your hand, and all your choice vows which you vow to the LORD.
Onda u mjesto koje izbere Gospod Bog vaš da u njemu nastani ime svoje, donosite sve što vam ja zapovijedam, žrtve svoje paljenice i druge žrtve svoje, desetke svoje i prinose ruku svojih i sve što bude najbolje u onome što zavjetujete Gospodu.
12 You shall rejoice before the LORD your God—you, and your sons, your daughters, your male servants, your female servants, and the Levite who is within your gates, because he has no portion nor inheritance with you.
I veselite se pred Gospodom Bogom svojim vi i sinovi vaši i kæeri vaše i sluge vaše i sluškinje vaše, i Levit koji je u mjestu vašem, jer on nema dijela ni našljedstva s vama.
13 Be careful that you don’t offer your burnt offerings in every place that you see;
Èuvaj se da ne prinosiš žrtava svojih paljenica na kom god mjestu, koje ugledaš;
14 but in the place which the LORD chooses in one of your tribes, there you shall offer your burnt offerings, and there you shall do all that I command you.
Nego na onom mjestu koje izbere Gospod Bog u jednom od tvojih plemena, ondje prinosi žrtve svoje paljenice, i ondje èini sve što ti zapovijedam.
15 Yet you may kill and eat meat within all your gates, after all the desire of your soul, according to the LORD your God’s blessing which he has given you. The unclean and the clean may eat of it, as of the gazelle and the deer.
Ali æeš moæi klati i jesti meso kako ti duša zaželi u svakom mjestu svojem po blagoslovu Gospoda Boga svojega, koji ti da; èist i neèist može jesti kao srnu i jelena.
16 Only you shall not eat the blood. You shall pour it out on the earth like water.
Samo krvi ne jedite; prolijte je na zemlju kao vodu.
17 You may not eat within your gates the tithe of your grain, or of your new wine, or of your oil, or the firstborn of your herd or of your flock, nor any of your vows which you vow, nor your free will offerings, nor the wave offering of your hand;
Neæeš moæi jesti u mjestu svojem desetka od žita svojega ni od vina svojega ni od ulja svojega, ni prvina od stoke svoje krupne i sitne, ni onoga što zavjetuješ; ni prinosa dragovoljnijeh, ni prinosa ruku svojih.
18 but you shall eat them before the LORD your God in the place which the LORD your God shall choose: you, your son, your daughter, your male servant, your female servant, and the Levite who is within your gates. You shall rejoice before the LORD your God in all that you put your hand to.
Nego to jedi pred Gospodom Bogom svojim na mjestu koje izbere Gospod Bog tvoj, ti i sin tvoj i kæi tvoja i sluga tvoj i sluškinja tvoja, i Levit koji je u mjestu tvom; i veseli se pred Gospodom Bogom svojim svaèim za što se prihvatiš rukom.
19 Be careful that you don’t forsake the Levite as long as you live in your land.
Èuvaj se da ne ostaviš Levita dok si god živ na zemlji.
20 When the LORD your God enlarges your border, as he has promised you, and you say, “I want to eat meat,” because your soul desires to eat meat, you may eat meat, after all the desire of your soul.
Kad raširi Gospod Bog tvoj meðe tvoje, kao što ti je kazao, ako reèeš: da jedem mesa, kad duša tvoja želi da jede mesa, jedi mesa po svoj želji duše svoje.
21 If the place which the LORD your God shall choose to put his name is too far from you, then you shall kill of your herd and of your flock, which the LORD has given you, as I have commanded you; and you may eat within your gates, after all the desire of your soul.
Ako bi bilo daleko od tebe mjesto koje Gospod Bog tvoj izbere da ondje namjesti ime svoje, zakolji od stoke svoje krupne ili sitne, koju ti da Gospod, kao što sam ti zapovjedio, i jedi u svom mjestu po svoj želji duše svoje.
22 Even as the gazelle and as the deer is eaten, so you shall eat of it. The unclean and the clean may eat of it alike.
Kako se jede srna i jelen, onako jedi; i èist i neèist neka jede.
23 Only be sure that you don’t eat the blood; for the blood is the life. You shall not eat the life with the meat.
Samo pazi da ne jedeš krvi; jer je krv duša, pa ne jedi duše s mesom.
24 You shall not eat it. You shall pour it out on the earth like water.
Ne jedi je; nego prolij na zemlju kao vodu.
25 You shall not eat it, that it may go well with you and with your children after you, when you do that which is right in the LORD’s eyes.
Ne jedi je, da bi dobro bilo tebi i sinovima tvojim nakon tebe, kad èiniš što je ugodno Gospodu.
26 Only your holy things which you have, and your vows, you shall take and go to the place which the LORD shall choose.
Ali stvari svoje svete, koje imaš, i što zavjetuješ, uzmi i doði na mjesto koje izbere Gospod.
27 You shall offer your burnt offerings, the meat and the blood, on the LORD your God’s altar. The blood of your sacrifices shall be poured out on the LORD your God’s altar, and you shall eat the meat.
I prinesi žrtve svoje paljenice, meso i krv, na oltaru Gospoda Boga svojega; krv pak od drugih žrtava tvojih neka se prolije na oltar Gospoda Boga tvojega, a meso jedi.
28 Observe and hear all these words which I command you, that it may go well with you and with your children after you forever, when you do that which is good and right in the LORD your God’s eyes.
Èuvaj i slušaj sve ove rijeèi koje ti ja zapovijedam, da bi dobro bilo tebi i sinovima tvojim nakon tebe dovijeka kad èiniš što je dobro i pravo pred Gospodom Bogom tvojim.
29 When the LORD your God cuts off the nations from before you where you go in to dispossess them, and you dispossess them and dwell in their land,
Kad istrijebi Gospod Bog tvoj ispred tebe narode ka kojima ideš da naslijediš zemlju njihovu, i naslijedivši je kad se nastaniš u zemlji njihovoj,
30 be careful that you are not ensnared to follow them after they are destroyed from before you, and that you not enquire after their gods, saying, “How do these nations serve their gods? I will do likewise.”
Èuvaj se da se ne uhvatiš u zamku pošavši za njima pošto se potru ispred tebe, i da ne potražiš bogova njihovijeh, i reèeš: kako su ovi narodi služili svojim bogovima, tako æu i ja èiniti.
31 You shall not do so to the LORD your God; for every abomination to the LORD, which he hates, they have done to their gods; for they even burn their sons and their daughters in the fire to their gods.
Ne èini tako Gospodu Bogu svojemu; jer oni èiniše svojim bogovima sve što je gadno pred Gospodom i na što on mrzi; jer su i sinove svoje i kæeri svoje sažizali bogovima svojim.
32 Whatever thing I command you, that you shall observe to do. You shall not add to it, nor take away from it.
Što vam god ja zapovijedam sve držite i tvorite, niti što dodajte k tome ni oduzmite od toga.
