Ponovljeni Zakon 16
1 Drži mjesec Aviv, te slavi pashu Gospodu Bogu svojemu, jer mjeseca Aviva izveo te je Gospod Bog tvoj iz Misira noæu.
“[Each year] honor Yahweh our God by celebrating the Passover [Festival] in the month of Abib [in early spring]. It was on a night in that month that Yahweh rescued your ancestors from Egypt.
2 I zakolji pashu Gospodu Bogu svojemu, od krupne i sitne stoke, na mjestu koje izbere Gospod da ondje nastani ime svoje.
[In order to celebrate that festival], go to the place that Yahweh will choose [for you to worship him], and offer [there one young animal] from your cattle or your sheep to be the Passover sacrifice, to honor Yahweh [MTY].
3 Ne jedi s njom hljeba kiseloga; sedam dana jedi s njom prijesan hljeb, hljeb nevoljnièki, jer si hiteæi izašao iz zemlje Misirske, pa da se opominješ dana kad si izašao iz Misira, dok si god živ.
[When you eat the Passover meal], the bread that you eat must not have yeast in it. You must eat this kind of bread, which will be called the bread of suffering/misery, for seven days. This is to help you to remember all during the time that you are alive that when your ancestors left Egypt, [where they were suffering because they were slaves], they left very quickly. [They did not put in yeast and wait for the dough to swell up].
4 I da se ne vidi u tebe kvasac za sedam dana nigdje meðu granicama tvojim, i da ne ostane preko noæ ništa do jutra od mesa koje zakolješ prvi dan uveèe.
[During that festival], you must not have any yeast in any house in your land for seven days. Furthermore, the meat [of the animals] that you sacrifice on the evening of the first day [of the Passover Festival must be eaten during that night]; do not allow any of it to remain until the next day.
5 Ne možeš klati pashe na svakom mjestu svom koje ti da Gospod Bog tvoj;
“To honor Yahweh our God, you must offer the Passover sacrifice only at the place that he chooses for you [to worship him]; do not offer that sacrifice in any other town in the land that Yahweh is giving to you. Offer that sacrifice when the sun is setting, at the same time of day that your ancestors [started to] leave Egypt.
6 Nego na mjestu koje izbere Gospod Bog tvoj da ondje nastani ime svoje, ondje kolji pashu uveèe o sunèanom zahodu u isto vrijeme kad si pošao iz Misira.
7 A peci je i jedi na mjestu koje izbere Gospod Bog tvoj; i sjutradan vrativši se idi u svoje šatore.
Boil [the meat] and eat it at the place [of worship] that Yahweh our God chooses. The next morning, you may return to your tents.
8 Šest dana jedi prijesne hljebove, a sedmi dan da je praznik Gospodnji, tada ne radi ništa.
Each day for six days the bread that you eat must have no yeast in it. On the seventh day, you must all gather to worship Yahweh our God. [It will be a day of rest]; you must not do any work on that day.”
9 Sedam nedjelja nabroj; kad stane srp raditi po ljetini, onda poèni brojiti sedam nedjelja.
“[Each year], from the day that you start to harvest your grain, count seven weeks.
10 Tada praznuj praznik nedjelja Gospodu Bogu svojemu; što možeš prinesi dragovoljno kako te bude blagoslovio Gospod Bog tvoj.
Then, to honor Yahweh our God, celebrate the Harvest Festival. Do that by bringing to him an offering [of grain]. Yahweh has blessed you [by causing it to grow in your fields during that year]. If you had a big harvest, bring a big offering. If you had a small harvest, bring a small offering.
11 I veseli se pred Gospodom Bogom svojim ti i sin tvoj i kæi tvoja i sluga tvoj i sluškinja tvoja, i Levit koji bude u mjestu tvojem, i došljak i sirota i udovica, što budu kod tebe, na mjestu koje izbere Gospod Bog tvoj da ondje nastani ime svoje.
[Each married couple] should be joyful in the presence of Yahweh. Their children, their servants, the descendants of Levi [who are in that town], and the foreigners, orphans, and widows [who are living among you], should also be joyful. Bring those offerings to the place of worship that Yahweh will choose.
12 I opominji se da si bio rob u Misiru, te èuvaj i tvori uredbe ove.
[“When you celebrate these festivals] by obeying these commands, remember that your ancestors were previously slaves in Egypt.”
13 Praznik sjenica praznuj sedam dana, kad zbereš s gumna svojega i iz kace svoje.
“[Each year], after you have threshed all your grain and pressed [the juice from] all your grapes, you must celebrate the Festival of [Living in Temporary] Shelters for seven days.
14 I veseli se na praznik svoj ti i sin tvoj i kæi tvoja i sluga tvoj i sluškinja tvoja, i Levit i došljak i sirota i udovica, što budu u mjestu tvojem.
[Each married couple] along with their children, their servants, the descendants of Levi [who are in that town], and the foreigners, orphans, and widows [who are living among you], should be joyful in the presence of Yahweh.
15 Sedam dana praznuj praznik Gospodu Bogu svojemu na mjestu koje izbere Gospod, kad te blagoslovi Gospod Bog tvoj u svakoj ljetini tvojoj i u svakom poslu ruku tvojih; i budi veseo.
Honor Yahweh our God by celebrating this festival for seven days in the place that Yahweh chooses [for you to worship him]. You should all be joyful, because Yahweh will have blessed your harvest and all the other work that you have done.
16 Tri puta u godini neka doðe svako muško pred Gospoda Boga tvojega na mjesto koje izbere: na praznik prijesnijeh hljebova, na praznik nedjelja i na praznik sjenica, ali niko da ne doðe prazan pred Gospoda;
“So, each year all of you Israeli men must gather [with your families] to worship Yahweh our God at the place that he will choose, [to celebrate three festivals]: The Passover Festival, the Harvest Festival, and the Festival of Living in Temporary Shelters. Each of you men must bring [LIT] an offering [for Yahweh to these festivals]
17 Nego svaki s darom od onoga što ima, prema blagoslovu Gospoda Boga tvojega kojim te je darivao.
in proportion to the blessings that Yahweh has given you [during that year].”
18 Sudije i upravitelje postavi sebi po svijem mjestima koja ti da Gospod Bog tvoj po plemenima tvojim, i neka sude narodu pravo.
“Appoint judges and other officials throughout your tribes, in all the towns [in the land] that Yahweh our God is giving to you. They must judge people fairly/justly.
19 Ne izvræi pravde i ne gledaj ko je ko; ne primaj poklona; jer poklon zašljepljuje oèi mudrima i izvræe rijeèi pravednima.
They must not judge unjustly. They must not favor one person more than another. The judges must not accept bribes, because if a judge accepts a bribe, even if he is wise and honest, it will be very difficult for him to judge fairly [IDM]; [he will do what the person who gave him the bribe wants him to do and declare that] the righteous/innocent people [must be punished].
20 Sasvijem idi za pravdom, da bi bio živ i naslijedio zemlju koju ti daje Gospod Bog tvoj.
You must be completely fair and just [DOU], in order that you will enter and occupy the land that Yahweh our God is giving to you.”
21 Ne sadi luga ni od kakvijeh drveta kod oltara Gospoda Boga svojega, koji naèiniš;
“When you make an altar to worship Yahweh our God, do not put next to it any wooden statue [that represents] the goddess Asherah.
22 I ne podiži nikakoga lika; na to mrzi Gospod Bog tvoj.
And do not set up any [stone] pillar [to worship any idol, because] Yahweh hates them.”
