1These are the statutes and the ordinances which you shall observe to do in the land which Yahweh, the God of your fathers, has given you to possess it, all the days that you live on the earth.
1Need on määrused ja seadlused, mida te peate hoolsasti pidama maal, mille Issand, su vanemate Jumal, annab sulle pärida, niikaua kui te elate maa peal.
2You shall surely destroy all the places in which the nations that you shall dispossess served their gods, on the high mountains, and on the hills, and under every green tree:
2Hävitage sootuks kõik need paigad, kus rahvad, keda te välja tõrjute, on teeninud oma jumalaid kõrgeil mägedel ja küngastel ning iga halja puu all!
3and you shall break down their altars, and dash in pieces their pillars, and burn their Asherim with fire; and you shall cut down the engraved images of their gods; and you shall destroy their name out of that place.
3Kiskuge maha nende altarid, purustage nende sambad, põletage tules nende viljakustulbad ja raiuge maha nende jumalate nikerdatud kujud ning kaotage nende nimed neist paigust!
4You shall not do so to Yahweh your God.
4Issandale, oma Jumalale, te ei tohi teha nõnda nagu nemad,
5But to the place which Yahweh your God shall choose out of all your tribes, to put his name there, even to his habitation you shall seek, and there you shall come;
5vaid otsige seda paika, mille Issand, teie Jumal, valib kõigilt teie suguharudelt, et sinna panna oma nime; tema eluaset otsige, ja sinna minge!
6and there you shall bring your burnt offerings, and your sacrifices, and your tithes, and the wave offering of your hand, and your vows, and your freewill offerings, and the firstborn of your herd and of your flock:
6Sinna viige oma põletus- ja tapaohvrid, kümnised, käe tõstelõivud, tõotusohvrid ja vabatahtlikud ohvrid ning veiste, lammaste ja kitsede esmasündinud!
7and there you shall eat before Yahweh your God, and you shall rejoice in all that you put your hand to, you and your households, in which Yahweh your God has blessed you.
7Ja seal sööge Issanda, oma Jumala ees ning olge rõõmsad, teie ja teie pere, kõige pärast, mida teie käsi on hankinud, millega Issand, su Jumal, sind on õnnistanud!
8You shall not do after all the things that we do here this day, every man whatever is right in his own eyes;
8Ärge tehke enam nõnda, nagu me täna teeme siin, igaüks seda, mis õige on tema silmis,
9for you haven’t yet come to the rest and to the inheritance, which Yahweh your God gives you.
9sest te ei ole veel tänini jõudnud rahupaika ega pärisosale, mille Issand, su Jumal, sulle annab.
10But when you go over the Jordan, and dwell in the land which Yahweh your God causes you to inherit, and he gives you rest from all your enemies around you, so that you dwell in safety;
10Aga kui te olete läinud üle Jordani ja elate maal, mille Issand, teie Jumal, teile pärisosaks annab, ja kui ta annab teile rahu kõigist vaenlasist ümberkaudu ja te elate julgesti,
11then it shall happen that to the place which Yahweh your God shall choose, to cause his name to dwell there, there you shall bring all that I command you: your burnt offerings, and your sacrifices, your tithes, and the wave offering of your hand, and all your choice vows which you vow to Yahweh.
11siis viige sinna paika, mille Issand, teie Jumal, valib eluasemeks oma nimele, kõik, mis ma teid käsin: oma põletus- ja tapaohvrid, kümnised ja käe tõstelõivud, ja kõik valitud tõotusohvrid, mis te Issandale tõotate,
12You shall rejoice before Yahweh your God, you, and your sons, and your daughters, and your male servants, and your female servants, and the Levite who is within your gates, because he has no portion nor inheritance with you.
12ja olge rõõmsad Issanda, oma Jumala ees, teie ja teie pojad ja tütred, teie sulased ja teenijad, ka leviit, kes on teie väravais, sest temal ei ole osa ega pärandit koos teiega.
13Take heed to yourself that you don’t offer your burnt offerings in every place that you see;
13Hoia, et sa oma põletusohvreid ei ohverda igas paigas, mida näed,
14but in the place which Yahweh shall choose in one of your tribes, there you shall offer your burnt offerings, and there you shall do all that I command you.
14vaid selles paigas, mille Issand välja valib ühelt su suguharult, ohverda oma põletusohvreid ja tee kõike, mis ma sind käsin!
15Notwithstanding, you may kill and eat flesh within all your gates, after all the desire of your soul, according to the blessing of Yahweh your God which he has given you: the unclean and the clean may eat of it, as of the gazelle, and as of the hart.
15Ometi võid sa kõigis oma väravais tappa ja liha süüa nii palju, kui su hing himustab, Issanda, su Jumala õnnistuse kohaselt, mille ta sulle on andnud; roojane ja puhas võivad seda süüa nagu gaselli või hirve liha.
16Only you shall not eat the blood; you shall pour it out on the earth as water.
16Aga te ei tohi süüa verd - valage see maha nagu vesi!
17You may not eat within your gates the tithe of your grain, or of your new wine, or of your oil, or the firstborn of your herd or of your flock, nor any of your vows which you vow, nor your freewill offerings, nor the wave offering of your hand;
17Sa ei tohi oma väravais süüa oma teravilja ja veinivirde ja õli kümnist, oma veiste, lammaste ja kitsede esmasündinuid ega ühtegi oma tõotusohvrit, mille sa tõotad, või oma vabatahtlikke ohvreid või oma käe tõstelõive,
18but you shall eat them before Yahweh your God in the place which Yahweh your God shall choose, you, and your son, and your daughter, and your male servant, and your female servant, and the Levite who is within your gates: and you shall rejoice before Yahweh your God in all that you put your hand to.
18vaid sa pead seda sööma Issanda, oma Jumala ees paigas, mille Issand, su Jumal, välja valib, sina ja su poeg ja tütar, su sulane ja teenija, ja leviit, kes on su väravais; ja ole rõõmus Issanda, oma Jumala ees kõige pärast, mida su käsi on hankinud!
19Take heed to yourself that you don’t forsake the Levite as long as you live in your land.
19Hoia, et sa leviiti ilma ei jäta, niikaua kui sa elad oma maal!
20When Yahweh your God shall enlarge your border, as he has promised you, and you shall say, “I want to eat meat,” because your soul desires to eat meat; you may eat meat, after all the desire of your soul.
20Kui Issand, su Jumal, teeb su maa-ala laiemaks, nagu ta sulle on lubanud, ja sa mõtled: 'Ma tahan liha süüa' - sest su hing himustab liha süüa -, siis sa võid liha süüa nii palju, kui su hing himustab.
21If the place which Yahweh your God shall choose, to put his name there, is too far from you, then you shall kill of your herd and of your flock, which Yahweh has given you, as I have commanded you; and you may eat within your gates, after all the desire of your soul.
21Kui sinust on kaugel see paik, mille Issand, su Jumal, välja valib, et sinna panna oma nime, siis sa võid tappa oma veistest, lammastest ja kitsedest, keda Issand sulle on andnud, nõnda nagu ma sind olen käskinud, ja süüa oma väravais nii palju, kui su hing himustab.
22Even as the gazelle and as the hart is eaten, so you shall eat of it: the unclean and the clean may eat of it alike.
22Jah, söö seda nõnda, nagu süüakse gaselli või hirve liha; niihästi roojane kui puhas võib seda süüa.
23Only be sure that you don’t eat the blood: for the blood is the life; and you shall not eat the life with the flesh.
23Aga jää kindlaks, et sa ei söö verd, sest veri on hing ja hinge sa ei tohi süüa koos lihaga!
24You shall not eat it; you shall pour it out on the earth as water.
24Ära söö seda, vaid vala see maha nagu vesi!
25You shall not eat it; that it may go well with you, and with your children after you, when you shall do that which is right in the eyes of Yahweh.
25Sa ei tohi seda süüa, et sinu ja su laste käsi pärast sind hästi käiks, kui sa teed, mis õige on Issanda silmis!
26Only your holy things which you have, and your vows, you shall take, and go to the place which Yahweh shall choose:
26Võta ainult oma pühad annid, mis sul võiksid olla, ja oma tõotusohvrid ja mine sinna paika, mille Issand välja valib,
27and you shall offer your burnt offerings, the flesh and the blood, on the altar of Yahweh your God; and the blood of your sacrifices shall be poured out on the altar of Yahweh your God; and you shall eat the flesh.
27ja ohverda oma põletusohvrid, liha ja veri, Issanda, oma Jumala altaril; su tapaohvrite veri valatagu Issanda, su Jumala altarile, liha aga võid sa süüa.
28Observe and hear all these words which I command you, that it may go well with you, and with your children after you forever, when you do that which is good and right in the eyes of Yahweh your God.
28Pane tähele ja kuule kõiki neid käsusõnu, mis ma sulle annan, et sinu ja su laste käsi pärast sind igavesti hästi käiks, kui sa teed, mis hea ja õige on Issanda, su Jumala silmis!
29When Yahweh your God shall cut off the nations from before you, where you go in to dispossess them, and you dispossess them, and dwell in their land;
29Kui Issand, su Jumal, hävitab su eest rahvad sealt, kuhu sa lähed neid ära ajama, ja kui oled need tõrjunud ning elad nende maal,
30take heed to yourself that you not be ensnared to follow them, after that they are destroyed from before you; and that you not inquire after their gods, saying, “How do these nations serve their gods? I will do likewise.”
30siis hoia, et sind ei võrgutataks käima nende järel, pärast seda kui nad su eest on hävitatud, ja et sa ei otsi üles nende jumalaid ega ütle: 'Kuidas need rahvad teenisid oma jumalaid? Mina tahan ka nõnda teha!'
31You shall not do so to Yahweh your God: for every abomination to Yahweh, which he hates, have they done to their gods; for even their sons and their daughters do they burn in the fire to their gods.
31Sa ei tohi nõnda teha Issandale, oma Jumalale, sest kõike, mis Issandale on jäledus, mida ta vihkab, on nemad teinud oma jumalatele; nad on isegi oma poegi ja tütreid põletanud tules oma jumalatele!
32Whatever thing I command you, that you shall observe to do: you shall not add thereto, nor diminish from it.
