< Ponovljeni Zakon 7 >

1 Kad te Gospod Bog tvoj uvede u zemlju u koju ideš da je naslijediš, i otjera ispred tebe narode mnoge, Heteje i Gergeseje i Amoreje i Hananeje i Ferezeje i Jeveje i Jevuseje, sedam naroda veæih i jaèih od tebe,
When Adonai your God brings you into the land where you go to possess it, and casts out many nations before you, the Hittite [Descendant of Trembling fear], the Girgashite, the Amorite [Descendants of Talkers], the Canaanite [Descendant of Humbled], the Perizzite [Descendant of Belonging to village], the Hivite [Wicked], and the Jebusite [Descendants of Thresher], seven nations greater and mightier than you;
2 I preda ih Gospod Bog tvoj tebi, i ti ih razbiješ, potri ih, ne hvataj s njima vjere, niti se smiluj na njih;
and when Adonai your God delivers them up before you, and you strike them; then you shall utterly destroy them. You shall make no covenant with them, nor show mercy to them;
3 Niti se prijatelji s njima; kæeri svoje ne daji za sina njihova, niti kæeri njihove uzimaj za sina svojega.
neither shall you make marriages with them. You shall not give your daughter to his son, nor shall you take his daughter for your son.
4 Jer bi otpadila sina tvojega od mene, i služio bi bogovima drugim, te bi se razgnjevio Gospod na vas i potro vas brzo.
For he will turn away your son from following me, that they may abad ·serve· other deities. So Adonai’s anger would be kindled against you, and he would destroy you quickly.
5 Nego ovo im uèinite: oltare njihove raskopajte, i likove njihove polomite, lugove njihove isijecite, i rezane bogove njihove ognjem spalite.
But you shall deal with them like this. You shall break down their altars, dash their pillars in pieces, and cut down their Asherah poles, and burn their engraved images with fire.
6 Jer si ti narod svet Gospodu Bogu svojemu, tebe je izabrao Gospod Bog tvoj da mu budeš narod osobit mimo sve narode na zemlji.
For you are a holy people to Adonai your God. Adonai your God has chosen you to be a le'am segulah ·people of special treasure· for his own possession, above all peoples who are on the face of the earth.
7 Ne zato što bi vas bilo više nego drugih naroda prihvati vas Gospod i izabra vas; jer vas bijaše manje nego ikojega drugoga naroda;
Adonai didn’t set his chasak ·to set one’s affection, to make bands· on you, nor choose you, because you were more in number than any people; for you were the fewest of all peoples:
8 Nego što vas Gospod miluje i što drži zakletvu kojom se zakleo ocima vašim, zato vas je Gospod izveo rukom krjepkom i izbavio vas iz kuæe ropske, iz ruke Faraona cara Misirskoga.
but because Adonai loves you, and because he desires to keep the oath which he swore to your fathers, Adonai has brought you out with a mighty hand, and redeemed you out of the house of bondage, from the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt [Abode of slavery].
9 I tako znaj da je Gospod Bog tvoj Bog, Bog vjeran, koji drži zavjet svoj i milost svoju do tisuæu koljena onima koji ga ljube i drže zapovijesti njegove,
Know therefore that Adonai your God himself is God, the faithful God, who keeps covenant and chesed ·loving-kindness· with them who 'ahav ·affectionately love· him and keep his mitzvot ·instructions· to a thousand generations,
10 I plaæa onima koji mrze na nj, svakome istrebljujuæi ga, i ne odgaða onome koji mrzi na nj, plaæa svakome.
and repays those who hate him to their face, to destroy them. He will not be slack to him who hates him. He will repay him to his face.
11 Zato drži zapovjesti i uredbe i zakone, koje ti danas ja zapovijedam, da ih tvoriš.
You shall therefore keep the mitzvot ·instructions·, the statutes, and the judgments, which I enjoin you today, to do them.
12 I ako ove zakone uzaslušate i uzdržite i ustvorite, i Gospod æe Bog tvoj držati tebi zavjet i milost, za koju se zakleo ocima tvojim;
It shall happen, because you sh'ma ·hear obey· these judgments, and keep and do them, that Adonai your God will keep with you the covenant and the chesed ·loving-kindness· which he swore to your fathers.
13 I milovaæe te i blagosloviæe te i umnožiæe te; blagosloviæe plod utrobe tvoje i plod zemlje tvoje, žito tvoje i vino tvoje i ulje tvoje, plod goveda tvojih i stada ovaca tvojih u zemlji za koju se zakleo ocima tvojim da æe ti je dati.
He will 'ahav ·affectionately love· you, bless you, multiply you. He will also bless the fruit of your body and the fruit of your ground, your grain and your new wine and your oil, the increase of your livestock and the young of your flock, in the land which he swore to your fathers to give you.
14 Biæeš blagosloven mimo sve narode: neæe biti u tebe ni muškoga ni ženskoga neplodna, ni meðu stokom tvojom.
You shall be blessed above all peoples. There shall not be male or female barren among you, or among your livestock.
15 I ukloniæe od tebe Gospod svaku bolest, i od ljutih zala Misirskih koja znaš neæe nijednoga pustiti na tebe, nego æe ih pustiti na one sve koji mrze na te.
Adonai will take away from you all sickness; and none of the evil diseases of Egypt [Abode of slavery], which you know, will he put on you, but will lay them on all those who hate you.
16 I istrijebi sve narode koje ti Gospod Bog tvoj preda, neka ih ne požali oko tvoje, i nemoj služiti bogovima njihovijem, jer bi ti to bilo zamka.
You shall consume all the peoples whom Adonai your God shall deliver to you. Your eye shall not pity them: neither shall you abad ·serve· their deities; for that would be a snare to you.
17 Ako bi rekao u srcu svom: veæi su ovi narodi od mene, kako ih mogu izagnati?
If you shall say in your heart, “These nations are more than I; how can I dispossess them?”
18 Ne boj ih se; pamti dobro što je uèinio Gospod Bog tvoj s Faraonom i sa svijem Misircima,
you shall not be afraid of them. You shall remember well what Adonai your God did to Pharaoh, and to all Egypt [Abode of slavery];
19 Velika kušanja, koja vidješe oèi tvoje, i znake i èudesa i ruku krjepku i mišicu podignutu, kojom te izvede Gospod Bog tvoj; onako æe uèiniti Gospod Bog tvoj sa svijem narodima od kojih bi se uplašio.
the great trials which your eyes saw, the signs, the wonders, the mighty hand, and the outstretched arm, by which Adonai your God brought you out. So shall Adonai your God do to all the peoples of whom you are afraid.
20 I stršljene æe poslati Gospod Bog tvoj na njih dokle ne izginu koji bi ostali i sakrili se od tebe.
Moreover Adonai your God will send the hornet among them, until those who are left, and hide themselves, perish from before you.
21 Ne plaši se od njih, jer je Gospod Bog tvoj usred tebe, Bog veliki i strašni.
You shall not be scared of them; for Adonai your God is among you, a great and awesome God.
22 Gospod æe Bog tvoj malo pomalo potrti te narode ispred tebe; neæeš ih moæi odjedanput istrijebiti, da se ne bi umnožilo na tebe zvijerje poljsko.
Adonai your God will cast out those nations before you little by little. You may not consume them at once, lest the animals of the field increase on you.
23 Ali æe ih predati Gospod Bog tvoj tebi, i zatiraæe ih zatiranjem velikim dokle se ne zatru.
But Adonai your God will deliver them up before you, and will confuse them with a great confusion, until they are destroyed.
24 I predaæe careve njihove u tvoje ruke da zatreš ime njihovo pod nebom, neæe se nijedan održati pred tobom, dokle ih ne potreš.
He will deliver their kings into your hand, and you shall make their name perish from under the sky. No one will be able to stand before you, until you have destroyed them.
25 Rezane bogove njihove spali ognjem, nemoj da se polakomiš na srebro ili zlato što je na njima i da ga uzmeš, da ti ne bude zamka, jer je gadno pred Gospodom Bogom tvojim.
You shall burn the engraved images of their deities with fire. You shall not covet the silver or the gold that is on them, nor take it for yourself, lest you be snared in it; for it is an abomination to Adonai your God.
26 I nemoj da uneseš gada u dom svoj, da ne budeš proklet kao i on, nego se gadi na nj i grozi se od njega, jer je prokleto.
You shall not bring an abomination into your house, and become a devoted thing like it. You shall utterly detest it, and you shall utterly abhor it; for it is a devoted thing.
