Ponovljeni Zakon 21
1 Kad se naðe ubijen èovjek u zemlji koju ti daje Gospod Bog tvoj da je naslijediš, gdje leži u polju, a ne zna se ko ga je ubio,
If one be founde slaine in the lande, which the Lord thy God giueth thee to possesse it, lying in the field, and it is not knowe who hath slaine him,
2 Tada neka izidu starješine tvoje i sudije tvoje, i neka izmjere od ubijenoga do gradova koji su oko njega.
Then thine Elders and thy Iudges shall come forth, and measure vnto the cities that are round about him that is slayne.
3 Pa koji grad bude najbliže ubijenoga, starješine onoga grada neka uzmu junicu iz goveda, na kojoj se još nije radilo, koja nije vukla u jarmu,
Aud let ye Elders of that citie, which is next vnto the slaine man, take out of the droue an heifer that hath not bene put to labour, nor hath drawen in the yoke.
4 I neka odvedu starješine onoga grada tu junicu u pustu dolinu gdje se ne kopa ni sije, i neka zakolju junicu ondje u dolini.
And let the Elders of that citie bring the heifer vnto a stonie valley, which is neyther eared nor sowen, and strike off the heifers necke there in the valley.
5 Potom neka pristupe sveštenici, sinovi Levijevi; jer njih izabra Gospod Bog tvoj da mu služe i da blagosiljaju u ime Gospodnje, i na njihovijem rijeèima da ostaje svaka raspra i svaka šteta;
Also the Priests the sonnes of Leui (whom the Lord thy God hath chosen to minister, and to blesse in the name of the Lord) shall come forth, and by their word shall all strife and plague be tried.
6 I sve starješine onoga grada koji budu najbliže ubijenoga neka operu ruke svoje nad zaklanom junicom u onoj dolini,
And all the Elders of that citie that came neere to the slayne man, shall wash their hands ouer the heifer that is beheaded in the valley:
7 I tvrdeæi neka reku: ruke naše nijesu prolile ove krvi niti su oèi naše vidjele;
And shall testifie, and say, Our handes haue not shed this blood, neither haue our eies seene it.
8 Milostiv budi narodu svojemu Izrailju, koji si iskupio, Gospode, i ne meæi prave krvi na narod svoj Izrailja. Tako æe se oèistiti od one krvi.
O Lord, be mercifull vnto thy people Israel, whom thou hast redeemed, and lay no innocent blood to the charge of thy people Israel, and the blood shalbe forgiuen them.
9 I ti æeš skinuti pravu krv sa sebe kad uèiniš što je pravo pred Gospodom.
So shalt thou take away the cry of innocet blood from thee, when thou shalt do that which is right in the sight of the Lord.
10 Kad otideš na vojsku na neprijatelje svoje, i preda ih Gospod Bog tvoj u ruke tvoje i zarobiš ih mnogo,
Whe thou shalt go to warre against thine enemies, and the Lord thy God shall deliuer them into thine hands, and thou shalt take the captiues,
11 I ugledaš u roblju lijepu ženu, i omili ti da bi je htio uzeti za ženu,
And shalt see among the captiues a beautifull woman, and hast a desire vnto her, and wouldest take her to thy wife,
12 Odvedi je kuæi svojoj; i neka obrije glavu svoju i sreže nokte svoje;
Then thou shalt bring her home to thine house, and she shall shaue her head, and pare her nayles,
13 I neka skine sa sebe haljine svoje u kojima je zarobljena, i neka sjedi u kuæi tvojoj, i žali za ocem svojim i za materom svojom cio mjesec dana; potom lezi s njom, i budi joj muž i ona nek ti bude žena.
And she shall put off the garment that shee was taken in, and she shall remaine in thine house, and bewaile her father and her mother a moneth long: and after that shalt thou go in vnto her, and marry her, and she shalbe thy wife.
14 Ako ti poslije ne bi bila po volji, pusti je neka ide kuda joj drago, ali nikako da je ne prodaš za novce ni da njom trguješ, jer si je osramotio.
And if thou haue no fauour vnto her, then thou mayest let her go whither she will, but thou shalt not sell her for money, nor make marchandise of her, because thou hast humbled her.
15 Ko bi imao dvije žene, jednu milu a drugu nemilu, pa bi rodile sinove, i mila i nemila, i prvenac bi bio od nemile,
If a man haue two wiues, one loued and another hated, and they haue borne him children, both the loued and also the hated: if the first borne be the sonne of the hated,
16 Onda kad doðe vrijeme da podijeli sinovima svojim što ima, ne može prvencem uèiniti sina od mile preko sina od nemile koji je prvenac;
Then when the time commeth, that hee appointeth his sonnes to be heires of that which he hath, he may not make the sonne of the beloued first borne before the sonne of the hated, which is the first borne:
17 Nego za prvenca neka prizna sina od nemile i dade mu dva dijela od svega što ima, jer je on poèetak sile njegove, njegovo je pravo prvenaèko.
But he shall acknowledge the sonne of the hated for the first borne, and giue him double portion of all that he hath: for hee is the first of his strength, and to him belongeth the right of the first borne.
18 Ko bi imao sina samovoljna i nepokorna, koji ne sluša oca svojega ni matere svoje, i kojega oni i karaše pa opet ne sluša,
If any man haue a sonne that is stubburne and disobedient, which wil not hearken vnto the voice of his father, nor the voyce of his mother, and they haue chastened him, and he would not obey them,
19 Neka ga uzmu otac i mati, i neka ga dovedu k starješinama grada svojega na vrata mjesta svojega,
Then shall his father and his mother take him, and bring him out vnto the Elders of his citie, and vnto the gate of the place where he dwelleth,
20 I neka kažu starješinama grada svojega: ovaj sin naš samovoljan je i nepokoran, ne sluša nas, izjelica je i pijanica.
And shall say vnto the Elders of his citie, This our sonne is stubburne and disobedient, and he wil not obey our admonition: he is a riotour, and a drunkard.
21 Tada svi ljudi onoga mjesta neka ga zaspu kamenjem da pogine; i tako izvadi zlo iz sebe, da sav Izrailj èuje i boji se.
Then all the men of his citie shall stone him with stones vnto death: so thou shalt take away euill from among you, that all Israel may heare it, and feare.
22 Ko zgriješi tako da zasluži smrt, te bude osuðen na smrt i objesiš ga na drvo,
If a man also haue committed a trespasse worthy of death, and is put to death, and thou hangest him on a tree,
23 Neka ne prenoæi tijelo njegovo na drvetu, nego ga isti dan pogrebi, jer je proklet pred Bogom ko je obješen; zato ne skvrni zemlje koju ti Gospod Bog tvoj daje u našljedstvo.
His body shall not remaine all night vpon the tree, but thou shalt bury him the same day: for the curse of God is on him that is hanged. Defile not therfore thy land which the Lord thy God giueth thee to inherite.
