Levitski Zakonik 16
1 I reèe Gospod Mojsiju pošto pogiboše dva sina Aronova, a pogiboše kad pristupiše pred Gospoda,
After the two sons of Aaron died because they burned incense to Yahweh [in a manner that was contrary to what Yahweh commanded], Yahweh spoke to Moses/me.
2 I kaza Gospod Mojsiju: reci Aronu bratu svojemu da ne ulazi u svako doba u svetinju za zavjes pred zaklopac koji je na kovèegu, da ne pogine, jer æu se u oblaku nad zaklopcem javljati.
He said to him/me, “Warn your [older] brother Aaron that he must not enter the Very Holy Place inside the curtain that is in the Sacred Tent whenever he wants to, because the cover of the sacred chest is there. That is the place where the priest (makes atonement for/requests me to forgive) sins. I am present in the cloud that is over the cover of the sacred chest. If Aaron goes in that room when it is not the proper time, he will die!
3 S ovijem neka ulazi Aron u svetinju: s juncem za žrtvu radi grijeha i s ovnom za žrtvu paljenicu.
“When Aaron enters the Sacred Tent area, he must bring a bull that [will be killed] to become an offering/sacrifice for sins, and a ram [to be killed] to be an offering that will be completely burned [on the altar].
4 Svetu košulju lanenu neka obuèe, i gaæe lanene neka su na tijelu njegovu, i neka se opaše pojasom lanenijem i kapu lanenu neka metne na glavu; to su haljine svete, i neka opere tijelo svoje vodom, pa onda neka ih obuèe.
Then he must bathe his whole body, and put on the linen underwear/undershorts and the linen gown. He must tie the linen sash/waistbands around his waist and wrap the turban around his head. Those are his sacred garments.
5 A od zbora sinova Izrailjevijeh neka uzme dva jarca za žrtvu radi grijeha, i jednoga ovna za žrtvu paljenicu.
The Israeli people must then bring to him two male goats [to be killed] as an offering/sacrifice for sin, and a ram to be [killed and] burned completely [on the altar].
6 I neka prinese Aron junca svojega na žrtvu za grijeh i oèisti sebe i dom svoj.
“Aaron must offer the bull [to me] to be a sacrifice in order that (I will forgive his sins and the sins of his family/his sins and the sins of his family will be forgiven).
7 Potom neka uzme dva jarca, i neka ih metne pred Gospoda na vrata šatora od sastanka.
Then he must bring the two male goats to me at the entrance to the Sacred Tent.
8 I neka Aron baci ždrijeb za ta dva jarca, jedan ždrijeb Gospodu a drugi ždrijeb Azazelu.
He must (cast lots/throw down stones that have been marked) to determine which goat will be [sacrificed] to me, and which will be the goat that will be set free.
9 I neka Aron prinese na žrtvu jarca na kojega padne ždrijeb Gospodnji, neka ga prinese na žrtvu za grijeh.
Aaron must bring to me the goat that was chosen to be sacrificed. It will be an offering for the people’s sins.
10 A jarca na kojega padne ždrijeb Azazelov neka metne živa pred Gospoda, da uèini oèišæenje na njemu, pa neka ga pusti u pustinju Azazelu.
Aaron must also bring to me the other goat, but it is not to be killed. It will be freed while it is still alive. As a result of Aaron sending it into the desert, the people’s sins will be forgiven.
11 I neka Aron prinese junca svojega na žrtvu za grijeh i oèisti sebe i dom svoj, i neka zakolje junca svojega na žrtvu za grijeh.
“Then Aaron must bring the young bull to me, to be an offering/sacrifice for himself and for his family. He must slaughter that bull to be an offering for their sins, [and he must drain the blood into a basin].
12 I neka uzme kadionicu punu žeravice s oltara, koji je pred Gospodom, i pune pregršti kada mirisnoga istucanoga, i neka unese za zavjes.
Then he must take some burning coals from the [bronze] altar and put them in the incense burner. Then he must fill his hands with fragrant finely-ground incense. Then he must take the incense and the incense burner inside the curtain into the Very Holy Place [of the Sacred Tent].
13 I neka metne kad na oganj pred Gospodom, da dim od kada zakloni zaklopac koji je na svjedoèanstvu; tako neæe poginuti.
There he must put the incense on the burning coals, with the result that a cloud of burning incense will rise up over the lid of the sacred chest. If he obeys these instructions, he will not die [like Korah’s two sons did because of offering incense incorrectly] (OR, [because of being in God’s presence]).
14 Poslije neka uzme krvi od junca i pokropi s prsta svojega po zaklopcu prema istoku, a pred zaklopcem neka sedam puta pokropi tom krvlju s prsta svojega.
Then he must dip his finger into [the basin] and sprinkle some blood on the lid of the sacred chest, and also sprinkle some blood seven times against the front of the chest.
15 I neka zakolje jarca na žrtvu za grijeh narodni, i neka unese krv njegovu za zavjes; i neka uèini s krvlju njegovom kao što je uèinio s krvlju junèijom, i pokropi njom po zaklopcu i pred zaklopcem.
[“Aaron must then go outside the Sacred Tent] and slaughter the goat to be an offering for the sins of the people. Then he must bring its blood into the Very Holy Place behind the curtain. There he must sprinkle [some of] that blood on the lid of the sacred chest and against the front of the chest, like he did with the bull’s blood.
16 I tako æe oèistiti svetinju od neèistota sinova Izrailjevih i od prijestupa njihovijeh u svijem grijesima njihovijem; tako æe uèiniti i u šatoru od sastanka, koji je meðu njima usred neèistota njihovijeh.
By doing that, he will purify the Very Holy Place. And he must sprinkle more of the blood on the Sacred Tent, because the tent is in the midst of the camp of the Israeli people who have become unacceptable to me [because of their sins].
17 A niko da ne bude u šatoru od sastanka kad on uðe da èini oèišæenje u svetinji, dokle ne izaðe i svrši oèišæenje za se i za dom svoj i za sav zbor Izrailjski.
When Aaron goes into the Very Holy Place [in the Sacred Tent] to purify it, no one else is permitted to enter [the other part of] the Sacred Tent. Only after Aaron has performed rituals to enable me to forgive him and his family, and all the Israeli people, is any priest permitted to enter the Sacred Tent.
18 A neka izaðe k oltaru koji je pred Gospodom, i oèisti ga; i uzevši krvi od junca i krvi od jarca neka pomaže rogove oltaru unaokolo;
“Then Aaron must go outside the tent to purify my altar. He must do this by smearing some of the blood from the bull and some of the blood from the goat on each of the projections at the corners of the altar.
19 I neka ga pokropi ozgo istom krvlju s prsta svojega sedam puta; tako æe ga oèistiti i posvetiti ga od neèistota sinova Izrailjevih.
Then Aaron must dip his finger into the [basin of] blood and sprinkle some of the blood over the altar seven times. By doing that, he will cleanse it from being unholy [because of the sins] of the Israeli people, and it will become holy again.
20 A kad oèisti svetinju i šator od sastanka i oltar, tada neka dovede jarca živoga.
“When Aaron has finished purifying the Very Holy Place [inside the Sacred Tent] and all of the Sacred Tent and the altar, he must bring the goat that was chosen to be set free.
21 I metnuvši Aron obje ruke svoje na glavu jarcu živomu, neka ispovjedi nad njim sva bezakonja sinova Izrailjevih i sve prijestupe njihove u svijem grijesima njihovijem, i metnuvši ih na glavu jarcu neka ga da èovjeku spremnom da ga istjera u pustinju.
He must put both of his hands on the head of the goat and confess all the sins [DOU] of the Israeli people. By doing that, he will put [the guilt of] their sins on the head of the goat. Then he must give the goat to a man who is chosen, and that man will send the goat out into the desert.
22 I jarac æe odnijeti na sebi sva bezakonja njihova u pustinju; i pustiæe onoga jarca u pustinju.
[It is as though] the goat will carry away into the desert [the guilt for] the sins of all the people.
23 Potom neka opet uðe Aron u šator od sastanka i svuèe haljine lanene koje je obukao kad je išao u svetinju, i ondje neka ih ostavi.
“When Aaron approaches the Sacred Tent, he must take off the linen clothes that he wore when he [previously] entered the Very Holy Place, and he must leave those clothes there.
24 Pa neka opere tijelo svoje na svetom mjestu i obuèe svoje haljine; i izašav neka prinese svoju žrtvu paljenicu i narodnu žrtvu paljenicu, i oèisti sebe i narod.
Then he must bathe in a sacred place, put on his regular/ordinary clothes, and sacrifice the animals that will be burned completely on the altar for his own sins and for the sins of the Israeli people. By doing that he will enable me to forgive him and them.
25 A salo od žrtve za grijeh neka zapali na oltaru.
He must also burn on the altar all the fat of the bull and the goat that were sacrificed.
26 A ko odvede jarca za Azazela, neka opere haljine svoje i okupa tijelo svoje u vodi, pa onda neka uðe u oko.
“The man who was chosen to send the other goat into the desert and free it there must afterwards wash his clothes and bathe. Then he may return to the camp.
27 A junca za grijeh i jarca za grijeh, od kojih je krv unesena da se uèini oèišæenje u svetinji, neka iznesu napolje iz okola, i neka spale ognjem kože njihove i meso njihovo i balegu njihovu.
The carcasses of the bull and the goat that were slaughtered to be an offering/sacrifice for the people’s sins, whose blood was taken inside the Very Holy Place to enable Yahweh to forgive the Israeli people, must be carried outside the camp and burned. The hides/skins of the animals, the inner organs, and the dung must also be burned.
28 A ko ih spali, neka opere haljine svoje i okupa tijelo svoje u vodi, pa onda neka doðe u oko.
The man who burns those things must then wash his clothes and bathe before he returns to the camp.
29 I ovo neka vam bude vjeèna uredba: deseti dan sedmoga mjeseca muèite duše svoje, i ne radite nikakoga posla, ni domorodac ni došljak koji se bavi meðu vama.
“On (October/the month after the dry season ends), on the day that I have appointed, you all must (fast/abstain from eating food) and not do any work. This is a rule/law that will never end. It must be obeyed by you people who have been Israelis all your lives, and also by foreigners who are living among you.
30 Jer u taj dan biva oèišæenje za vas, da se oèistite; biæete oèišæeni od svijeh grijeha svojih pred Gospodom.
On that day, Aaron will perform rituals to enable me to forgive you all, and then I will cleanse/free you all from [the guilt of] all your sins and you will become acceptable to me.
31 To neka vam je poèivanje subotno, i muèite duše svoje po uredbi vjeènoj.
That will be a day for you to rest and not do any work, like the Sabbath days, and you must (fast/abstain from eating food) all that day. That is a permanent command/law for you all to obey.
32 A sveštenik koji bude pomazan i koji bude osveæen da vrši službu sveštenièku na mjesto oca svojega, on neka oèišæa obukavši se u haljine lanene, haljine svete.
In future years, [after Aaron has died], this ritual/ceremony to enable me to forgive you all [DOU] will be performed by the Supreme Priest who is anointed [with olive oil] and appointed to serve instead of his ancestor Aaron. He must put on the sacred clothes made of linen
33 I neka oèisti svetinju svetu i šator od sastanka; i oltar neka oèisti; i sveštenike i sav narod sabrani neka oèisti.
and offer sacrifices to purify the Very Holy Place, all of the Sacred Tent, the altar, the priests, and all the Israel people [like Aaron did].
34 I ovo neka vam je vjeèna uredba da oèišæate sinove Izrailjeve od svijeh grijeha njihovijeh jedanput u godini. I uèini Mojsije kako mu zapovjedi Gospod.
This will be a permanent command/law for you to obey once every year, to enable me to forgive you Israeli people for the sins that you have committed.” Moses/I obeyed all those instructions/commands that Yahweh had given to him/me.
