¹Ne raznašaj lažnivega govorjenja; ne podajaj roke svoje krivičniku, da bodeš priča za nepravičnost.

¹`Thou dost not lift up a vain report; thou dost not put thy hand with a wicked man to be a violent witness.

²Ne potegni z množico, da bi delal zlo; in v pravdi ne govóri iz nagnjenja do množice, da se izprevrne sodba.

²`Thou art not after many to evil, nor dost thou testify concerning a strife, to turn aside after many to cause [others] to turn aside;

³Tudi na ubožca se ne oziraj v pravdi njegovi.

³and a poor man thou dost not honour in his strife.

⁴Ako srečaš vola sovražnika svojega ali osla, da je zašel, pripelji mu ga varno nazaj.

⁴`When thou meetest thine enemy`s ox or his ass going astray, thou dost certainly turn it back to him;

⁵Ako vidiš osla sovražilca svojega, da leži pod tovorom svojim, ne hodi mimo, ne da bi mu pomagal: rad mu pomozi ž njim vred.

⁵when thou seest the ass of him who is hating thee crouching under its burden, then thou hast ceased from leaving [it] to it — thou dost certainly leave [it] with him.

⁶Ne zavijaj pravice siromaku svojemu v pravdi njegovi.

⁶`Thou dost not turn aside the judgment of thy needy one in his strife;

⁷Ogiblji se nepoštene reči. Nedolžnega in pravičnega ne ubijaj, zakaj krivičnega ne opravičim.

⁷from a false matter thou dost keep far off, and an innocent and righteous man thou dost not slay; for I do not justify a wicked man.

⁸Ne jemlji daril, kajti darilo oslepi nje, ki gledajo z odprtimi očmi, in preobrne besede pravičnih.

⁸`And a bribe thou dost not take; for the bribe bindeth the open-[eyed], and perverteth the words of the righteous.

⁹In tujca ne tlači, zakaj veste, kako je v duši tujcu, ker ste sami bili tujci v deželi Egiptovski.

⁹`And a sojourner thou dost not oppress, and ye — ye have known the soul of the sojourner, for sojourners ye have been in the land of Egypt.

¹⁰Šest let posevaj zemljo svojo in spravljaj pridelke njene;

¹⁰`And six years thou dost sow thy land, and hast gathered its increase;

¹¹a sedmo leto naj ti leži in počiva, da jo uživajo ubožci tvojega ljudstva, in kar po njih preostane, naj pojé poljska zverina. Prav tako delaj z vinogradom in z olivnikom svojim.

¹¹and the seventh thou dost release it, and hast left it, and the needy of thy people have eaten, and their leaving doth the beast of the field eat; so dost thou to thy vineyard — to thine olive-yard.

¹²Šest dni opravljaj posel svoj in sedmi dan počivaj, da se odpočijeta vol in osel tvoj in se oddahneta sin dekle tvoje in tujec.

¹²`Six days thou dost do thy work, and on the seventh day thou dost rest, so that thine ox and thine ass doth rest, and the son of thine handmaid and the sojourner is refreshed;

¹³In pazite na vse, kar sem vam rekel; in imena tujih bogov ne omenjajte, še sliši naj se ne iz vaših ust.

¹³and in all that which I have said unto you ye do take heed; and the name of other gods ye do not mention; it is not heard on thy mouth.

¹⁴Trikrat v letu mi posvečuj praznik.

¹⁴`Three times thou dost keep a feast to Me in a year;

¹⁵Praznik opresnikov praznuj: sedem dni boš jedel opresen kruh, kakor sem ti zapovedal, v določeni čas v mesecu Abibu, kajti v njem si šel iz Egipta; in nihče naj se ne prikaže prazen pred mojim obličjem;

¹⁵the Feast of Unleavened things thou dost keep; seven days thou dost eat unleavened things, as I have commanded thee, at the time appointed [in] the month of Abib; for in it thou hast come forth out of Egypt, and ye do not appear [in] My presence empty;

¹⁶in praznik žetve, prvin tvojega pridelka, tistega, kar seješ na polju; in praznik spravljanja ob koncu leta, kadar pospraviš svoje pridelke s polja.

¹⁶and the Feast of Harvest, the first fruits of thy works which thou sowest in the field; and the Feast of the In-Gathering, in the outgoing of the year, in thy gathering thy works out of the field.

¹⁷Trikrat v letu naj se prikažejo vsi moški tvoji pred obličjem Gospoda Jehove.

¹⁷`Three times in a year do all thy males appear before the face of the Lord Jehovah.

¹⁸Ne daruj krvi daritve moje zraven kvašenega kruha, in masti od mojega praznika naj ne ostane do jutra.

¹⁸`Thou dost not sacrifice on a fermented thing the blood of My sacrifice, and the fat of My festival doth not remain till morning;

¹⁹Prve prvine plodov zemlje svoje prinesi v hišo GOSPODA, svojega Boga. Ne kuhaj kozliča v matere njegove mleku.

¹⁹the beginning of the first-fruits of thy ground thou dost bring into the house of Jehovah thy God; thou dost not boil a kid in its mother`s milk.

²⁰Glej, jaz pošiljam angela svojega pred teboj, da te varuje na potu in te pripelje v kraj, katerega sem pripravil.

²⁰`Lo, I am sending a messenger before thee to keep thee in the way, and to bring thee in unto the place which I have prepared;

²¹Pazi se obličja njegovega in poslušaj njegov glas; ne upiraj se mu, ker ne izpregleda prestopkov vaših, zakaj moje ime je v njem.

²¹be watchful because of his presence, and hearken to his voice, rebel not against him, for he beareth not with your transgression, for My name [is] in his heart;

²²Če boš pa pazljivo poslušal njegov glas in delal vse, kar govorim: sovražnik bodem tvojim sovražnikom in nasprotnikom tvojim nasprotnik.

²²for, if thou diligently hearken to his voice, and hast done all that which I speak, then I have been at enmity with thine enemies, and have distressed those distressing thee.

²³Kajti angel moj pojde pred teboj in te privede k Amorejcem in Hetejcem in Ferizejcem in Kanaancem in Hevejcem in Jebusejcem, in jih iztrebim.

²³`For My messenger goeth before thee, and hath brought thee in unto the Amorite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, and the Canaanite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite, and I have cut them off.

²⁴Ne klanjaj se njih bogovom in jim ne služi, tudi ne delaj po njih delih, marveč docela jih razruši in dočista poteri njih stebre s podobami.

²⁴`Thou dost not bow thyself to their gods, nor serve them, nor do according to their doings, but dost utterly devote them, and thoroughly break their standing pillars.

²⁵In služite GOSPODU, Bogu svojemu, in blagoslovil bo kruh tvoj in vodo tvojo, in odpravim bolezen izmed vas.

²⁵`And ye have served Jehovah your God, and He hath blessed thy bread and thy water, and I have turned aside sickness from thine heart;

²⁶Ne bode je, ki bi negodno rodila, ne nerodovitne v deželi tvoji; število dni tvojih dopolnim.

²⁶there is not a miscarrying and barren one in thy land; the number of thy days I fulfil:

²⁷Strah svoj pošljem pred teboj ter zbegam vsa ljudstva, h katerim prideš, in vse sovražnike tvoje poženem v beg pred teboj.

²⁷My terror I send before thee, and I have put to death all the people among whom thou comest, and I have given the neck of all thine enemies unto thee.

²⁸In pošljem pred teboj sršene, ki bodo pregnali Hevejce, Kanaance in Hetejce izpred tebe.

²⁸`And I have sent the hornet before thee, and it hath cast out the Hivite, the Canaanite, and the Hittite, from before thee;

²⁹Ne preženem jih izpred tebe v enem letu, da se ne opustoši dežela in se ne pomnože poljske zveri zoper tebe.

²⁹I cast them not out from before thee in one year, lest the land be a desolation, and the beast of the field hath multiplied against thee;

³⁰Pomalem jih preženem izpred tebe, dokler se ne razmnožiš in ne posedeš dežele.

³⁰little [by] little I cast them out from before thee, till thou art fruitful, and hast inherited the land.

³¹In postavim mejo tvojo od Rdečega morja do morja Filistejcev in od puščave do velereke; kajti v roko tvojo dam prebivalce tiste dežele, in izgnal jih boš pred seboj.

³¹`And I have set thy border from the Red Sea, even unto the sea of the Philistines, and from the wilderness unto the River: for I give into your hand the inhabitants of the land, and thou hast cast them out from before thee;

³²Zaveze ne skleni ž njimi, ne ž njih bogovi.Ne prebivajo naj v tvoji deželi, da te ne zapeljejo v greh zoper mene; zakaj če bi služil njih bogovom, bi ti gotovo bilo v zanko.

³²thou dost not make a covenant with them, and with their gods;

³³Ne prebivajo naj v tvoji deželi, da te ne zapeljejo v greh zoper mene; zakaj če bi služil njih bogovom, bi ti gotovo bilo v zanko.

³³they do not dwell in thy land, lest they cause thee to sin against Me when thou servest their gods, when it becometh a snare to thee.`
