Ponovljeni Zakon 12
1 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.
These are the rules and regulations you must make sure to follow the whole time you live in the land that the Lord, the God of your forefathers, has given you to own.
2 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.
You are to completely destroy all the pagan shrines where the nations you're driving out worshiped their gods: on the top of high mountains, on the hills, and under every green tree.
3 Oborite oltare njihove i razbijte likove njihove, i lugove njihove popalite ognjem, i rezane bogove njihove izlomite, i istrijebite ime njihovo iz onoga mjesta.
Tear down their altars, knock down their idolatrous pillars, burn down their Asherah poles, and cut down the idols of their gods. Remove any trace of them from everywhere.
4 Ne èinite tako Gospodu Bogu svojemu.
You are not to worship the Lord your God in the way that they did.
5 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.
No, you must go to the place the Lord your God will choose from the territory of all your tribes to set up a place where he will live with you. That's where you must go.
6 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.
You'll take there your burnt offerings and sacrifices, your tithes and all your offerings—your freewill offerings and offerings to fulfill a promise, along with the firstborn of your herds and flocks.
7 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.
That's where, in the presence of the Lord your God, you and your families will eat and celebrate everything you've worked for, because the Lord your God has blessed you.
8 Ne èinite kako mi sada ovdje èinimo, što je kome drago.
You're not to do like we're doing here today. At the moment everyone does what they think is right,
9 Jer još nijeste došli do odmora i našljedstva, koje ti daje Gospod Bog tvoj.
because you haven't arrived in the land you will own that the Lord your God is giving you and where you will be at peace.
10 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,
After you cross the Jordan and settle down in the country that the Lord your God is giving you to possess, and he lets you rest from fighting all your enemies and you live in safety,
11 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.
then the Lord your God will choose a place where he will live with you. That's where you are to bring everything I've order you to do—your burnt offerings and sacrifices, your tithes and freewill offerings, and all the special gifts you promise to give to the Lord.
12 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.
You will celebrate there in the presence of the Lord your God—you, your sons and daughters, your male and female slaves, and the Levites living in your towns, because they don't have any share in the allotment of land.
13 Èuvaj se da ne prinosiš žrtava svojih paljenica na kom god mjestu, koje ugledaš;
Make sure you don't present your burnt offerings just anywhere you want.
14 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.
You are to offer them only in the place the Lord will choose in the territory of one of your tribes. That's where you are to do everything that I order you to do.
15 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.
Of course you can slaughter and eat meat wherever you are, anytime you want, depending on how much the Lord your God has blessed you. All of you, whether you're ceremonially clean or not, can it eat it just like you would a gazelle or a deer,
16 Samo krvi ne jedite; prolijte je na zemlju kao vodu.
but you are not to eat the blood—pour that out on the ground.
17 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.
In your towns you must not eat the tithe of your grain or new wine or olive oil, the firstborn of your herds or flocks, any of the offerings that you give to fulfill a promise, your freewill offerings, or your special gifts.
18 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.
No, you must eat them in the presence of the Lord your God at the place the Lord your God will choose— you, your sons and daughters, your male and female slaves, and the Levites living in your towns. Celebrate in the presence of the Lord your God in everything you do,
19 Èuvaj se da ne ostaviš Levita dok si god živ na zemlji.
and make sure you don't forget about the Levites as the whole time you live in your land.
20 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.
When the Lord your God gives you more land as he promised, and you feel like some meat, and say, “I want to have some meat,” you may can it whenever you want.
21 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.
If the place where the Lord your God chooses to live with you is a long way away, then you can slaughter any animal from the herd or flock he has given you, following the regulations I have given you, and you can eat it in your town whenever you want.
22 Kako se jede srna i jelen, onako jedi; i èist i neèist neka jede.
In fact you can eat it like you would eat a gazelle or deer—whether you're ceremonially clean or not, you can eat it.
23 Samo pazi da ne jedeš krvi; jer je krv duša, pa ne jedi duše s mesom.
Just make sure you don't eat the blood, because the blood is the life, and you must not eat the life with the meat.
24 Ne jedi je; nego prolij na zemlju kao vodu.
You must not eat the blood; pour it out on the ground.
25 Ne jedi je, da bi dobro bilo tebi i sinovima tvojim nakon tebe, kad èiniš što je ugodno Gospodu.
Don't eat it, so that all will go well with you and your children, because you will be doing what is right in the Lord's sight.
26 Ali stvari svoje svete, koje imaš, i što zavjetuješ, uzmi i doði na mjesto koje izbere Gospod.
Take your holy sacrifices and the offerings to fulfill your vows and go to the place the Lord will choose.
27 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.
Present your burnt offerings, the meat and blood, on the altar of the Lord your God. The blood of your other sacrifices is to be poured out beside the altar of the Lord your God, but you are allowed to eat the meat.
28 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.
Make sure you obey everything I'm commanding you, so that it may always go well with you and your children, because you will be following what is good and right in the sight of the Lord your God.
29 Kad istrijebi Gospod Bog tvoj ispred tebe narode ka kojima ideš da naslijediš zemlju njihovu, i naslijedivši je kad se nastaniš u zemlji njihovoj,
When the Lord your God destroys the nations ahead of you as you enter the country to possess, and you drive them out and settle down in their land,
30 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.
make sure you don't fall into the trap of following their ways after they have been destroyed right in front of you. Don't try and find out about their gods, asking, “I wonder how these people worship their gods? I'll do like they did.”
31 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.
You must not worship the Lord your God like this, because when they worship their gods they do every kind of abominable thing that the Lord hates. They even burn their sons and daughters as sacrifices to their gods!
32 Što vam god ja zapovijedam sve držite i tvorite, niti što dodajte k tome ni oduzmite od toga.
Be careful to do everything I order you to do. Don't add or take away anything from these instructions.
