4 Mojzes 18
1 Gospod je rekel Aronu: »Ti, tvoji sinovi in hiša tvojega očeta s teboj bodo nosili krivičnost svetišča. Ti in tvoji sinovi s teboj boste nosili krivičnost svojega duhovništva.
Yahweh said to Aaron, “You, your sons, and your ancestor's clan will be responsible for all sins committed against the sanctuary. But only you and your sons with you will be responsible for all sins committed by anyone in the priesthood.
2 Tudi svoje brate iz Lévijevega rodu, rodu svojega očeta, privedi s seboj, da bodo lahko pridruženi k tebi in ti služili, toda ti in tvoji sinovi s teboj boste služili pred šotorskim svetiščem pričevanja.
As for your fellow members of the tribe of Levi, your ancestors' tribe, you must bring them with you so they may join you and help you when you and your sons serve in front of the tent of the covenant decrees.
3 Pazili bodo na tvojo zadolžitev in zadolžitev vsega šotorskega svetišča. Samo ne bodo se približali posodam svetišča in oltarju, da ne bi niti oni niti tudi vi ne umrli.
They must serve you and the whole tent. However, they must not come near to anything in the holy place or connected with the altar, or they and also you will die.
4 Pridruženi bodo k tebi in pazili bodo na zadolžitev šotorskega svetišča skupnosti, za vso službo šotorskega svetišča. Tujec pa se vam ne bo približal.
They must join you and take care of the tent of meeting, for all the work connected with the tent. A foreigner must not come near you.
5 Pazili boste na zadolžitev svetišča in zadolžitev oltarja, da nad Izraelovimi otroki ne bo več besa.
You must take responsibility for the holy place and for the altar so that my anger does not come on the people of Israel again.
6 Glejte, jaz sem vzel vaše brate, Lévijevce, izmed Izraelovih otrok. Vam so izročeni kakor darilo za Gospoda, da opravljajo službo šotorskega svetišča skupnosti.
Look, I myself have chosen your fellow members of the Levites from among the descendants of Israel. They are a gift to you, given to me to do the work connected to the tent of meeting.
7 Zato boste ti in tvoji sinovi s teboj, varovali svojo duhovniško službo za vsako oltarno stvar in znotraj zagrinjala; in vi boste služili. Duhovniško službo sem vam dal kakor službo darila. Tujec pa, ki pride blizu, bo usmrčen.«
But only you and your sons may exercise the priesthood regarding everything connected with the altar and everything inside the curtain. You yourselves must fulfill those responsibilities. I am giving you the priesthood as a gift. Any foreigner who approaches must be put to death.”
8 Gospod je spregovoril Aronu: »Glej, dal sem ti tudi zadolžitev mojih vzdigovalnih daritev izmed vseh posvečenih stvari Izraelovih otrok. Tebi sem jih dal zaradi razloga maziljenja in tvojim sinovom, z odredbo na veke.
Then Yahweh said to Aaron, “Look, I have given you the duty of handling the offerings raised up to me, and all the holy offerings that the people of Israel give to me. I have given these offerings to you and your sons as your ongoing share.
9 To bodo tvoje najsvetejše stvari, ohranjene pred ognjem. Vsak njihov dar, vsaka njihova jedilna daritev in vsaka njihova daritev za greh in vsaka njihova daritev za prestopek, ki mi jih bodo povrnili, bo zate in za tvoje sinove najsvetejša.
This will belong to you from the most holy things that is kept from the fire. From every offering of theirs—every grain offering, every sin offering, and every guilt offering—they are set apart to you and to your sons.
10 Na najsvetejšem kraju boš to jedel. Vsak moški bo to jedel. To ti bo sveto.
These offerings are very holy; every male must eat it, for they are holy to you.
11 In to je tvoje; vzdigovalna daritev njihovega darila z vsemi majalnimi daritvami Izraelovih otrok. Dal sem jih tebi in tvojim sinovim in tvojim hčeram s teboj, po zakonu na veke; vsak, kdor je v tvoji hiši čist, bo jedel od tega.
These are the offerings that will belong to you, set apart out of all their gifts of the wave offerings of the people of Israel. I have given them to you, your sons, and your daughters, as your portion forever. Everyone who is ceremonially clean in your family may eat any of these offerings.
12 Najboljše od olja in najboljše od vina in od pšenice, njihove prve sadove, ki jih bodo darovali Gospodu, te sem dal tebi.
All the best of the oil, all the best of the new wine and grain, the firstfruits that the people give to me—all these things I have given to you.
13 In karkoli je prvo zrelo v deželi, kar bodo prinesli Gospodu, bo tvoje; vsak, kdor je v tvoji hiši čist, bo jedel od tega.
The first ripe produce of all that is in their land, which they bring to me, will be yours. Everyone who is clean in your family may eat these things.
14 Vsaka posvečena stvar v Izraelu, naj bo tvoja.
Every devoted thing in Israel will be yours.
15 Vsaka stvar, ki odpre maternico v vsem mesu, ki ga prinašajo h Gospodu, naj bo to od ljudi ali živali, bo tvoja. Vendar zagotovo odkupi človeškega prvorojenca in odkupil boš prvence nečistih živali.
Everything that opens the womb, all the firstborn which the people offer to Yahweh, both of man and animal, will be yours. Nevertheless, the people must certainly buy back every firstborn son, and they must buy back the firstborn male of unclean animals.
16 Tiste, ki naj bi bili odkupljeni, mesec dni stare, boš odkupil glede na svojo oceno, za denar petih šeklov, po svetiščnem šeklu, kar je dvajset ger.
Those that are to be bought back by the people must be bought back after becoming one month old. Then the people may buy them back, for the price of five shekels, by the standard weight of the sanctuary shekel, which equals twenty gerahs.
17 Toda prvenca krave ali prvenca ovce ali prvenca koze ne boš odkupil; oni so sveti. Njihovo kri boš poškrôpil na oltar in njihovo tolščo boš sežgal za ognjeno daritev, v prijeten vonj Gospodu.
But the firstborn of a cow, or the firstborn of a sheep, or the firstborn of a goat—you must not buy back these animals; they are set apart to me. You must sprinkle their blood on the altar and burn their fat as an offering made by fire, an aroma pleasing to Yahweh.
18 Njihovo meso bo tvoje, kakor so tvoje majalne prsi in desno pleče.
Their meat will be yours. Like the raised breast and the right thigh, their meat will be yours.
19 Vse vzdigovalne daritve svetih stvari, ki jih Izraelovi otroci darujejo Gospodu, sem dal tebi in tvojim sinovim in tvojim hčeram s teboj, po zakonu na veke. To je solna zaveza na veke pred Gospodom, tebi in tvojemu potomstvu s teboj.«
All the holy offerings that the people of Israel present to Yahweh, I have given to you, and to your sons and to your daughters with you, as a continual share. It is an everlasting covenant of salt, a binding covenant forever, before Yahweh for both you and your descendants with you.”
20 Gospod je govoril Aronu: »Ne boš imel dediščine v svoji deželi niti ne boš imel nobenega deleža med njimi. Jaz sem tvoj delež in tvoja dediščina med Izraelovimi otroki.
Yahweh said to Aaron, “You will have no inheritance in the people's land, nor will you have any share of property among the people. I am your share and inheritance among the people of Israel.
21 Glej, Lévijevim otrokom sem dal za dediščino vse desetine v Izraelu, za njihovo službo, ki jo služijo, torej službo šotorskega svetišča skupnosti.
To the descendants of Levi, look, I have given all the tithes in Israel as their inheritance in return for the service that they provide in working at the tent of meeting.
22 Niti se Izraelovi otroci odslej ne smejo približati šotorskemu svetišču skupnosti, da ne bi nosili greha in umrli.
From now on the people of Israel must not come near the tent of meeting, or they will be responsible for this sin and die.
23 Temveč bodo Lévijevci opravljali službo šotorskega svetišča skupnosti in nosili bodo njihovo krivičnost. To bo zakon na veke skozi vaše rodove, da med Izraelovimi otroki ne bodo imeli nobene dediščine.
The Levites must do the work connected to the tent of meeting. They will be responsible for any sin regarding it. This will be a permanent law throughout your people's generations. Among the people of Israel they must have no inheritance.
24 Toda desetine Izraelovih otrok, ki jih darujejo kakor vzdigovalno daritev Gospodu, sem dal v dediščino Lévijevcem. Zato sem jim rekel: ›Med Izraelovimi otroki ne bodo imeli nobene dediščine.‹«
For the tithes of the people of Israel, which they offer as a contribution to me—it is these that I have given to the Levites as their inheritance. That is why I said to them, 'They must have no inheritance among the people of Israel.'”
25 Gospod je spregovoril Mojzesu, rekoč:
Yahweh spoke to Moses and said,
26 »Tako spregovori Lévijevcem in jim povej: ›Kadar od Izraelovih otrok vzamete desetine, ki sem vam jih od njih dal za vašo dediščino, potem boste od tega darovali vzdigovalno daritev za Gospoda, celó deseti del desetine.
“You must speak to the Levites and say to them, 'When you receive from the people of Israel the tenth that I have given to you from them for your inheritance, you will present a contribution from it to Yahweh, a tenth of the tithe.
27 In ta vaša vzdigovalna daritev se vam bo štela kakor, da bi bilo žito iz mlatišča in kakor polnost vinske stiskalnice.
Your contribution must be considered by you as if it were a tenth of the grain from the threshing floor or of the production from the winepress.
28 Tako boste tudi vi darovali vzdigovalno daritev Gospodu od vseh svojih desetin, ki jih prejmete od Izraelovih otrok in od tega boste dali Gospodovo vzdigovalno daritev duhovniku Aronu.
So you also must make a contribution to Yahweh from all the tithes that you receive from the people of Israel. From them you must give his contribution to Aaron the priest.
29 Izmed vseh vaših darov bo vsak daroval vzdigovalno daritev Gospodu, od vsega najboljšega od tega, celó posvečen del od tega.‹
Out of all the gifts you receive, you must make every contribution to Yahweh. You must do this from all the best and the holiest things that have been given to you.'
30 Zato jim boš rekel: ›Ko ste vzdignili najboljše od tega, potem bo to šteto Lévijevcem kakor donos mlatišča in kakor donos vinske stiskalnice.
Therefore you must say to them, 'When you present the best of it, then it must be credited to the Levites as the product from the threshing floor and the winepress.
31 To boste jedli na vsakem kraju, vi in vaše družine, kajti to je vaša nagrada za vašo službo v šotorskem svetišču skupnosti.
You may eat the rest of your gifts in any place, you and your families, because it is your pay in return for your work in the tent of meeting.
32 Zaradi tega ne boste nosili nobenega greha, ko ste vzdignili najboljše od tega. Niti ne boste oskrunili svetih stvari Izraelovih otrok, da ne umrjete.‹«
You will not incur any guilt by eating and drinking it, if you have presented to Yahweh the best of what you have received. But you must not profane the holy offerings of the people of Israel, or you will die.'”
