¹Yahweh spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,

¹A Hospodin hovoril Mojžišovi a Áronovi a riekol:

²“This is the statute of the law which Yahweh has commanded: Speak to the children of Israel, that they bring you a red heifer without spot, in which is no blemish, and which was never yoked.

²Toto je ustanovenie zákona, ktoré prikázal Hospodin povediac: Hovor synom Izraelovým, aby vzali a doviedli k tebe červenú jalovicu bez vady, na ktorej niet poškvrny, na ktorú ešte nebolo položené jarmo.

³You shall give her to Eleazar the priest, and he shall bring her forth outside of the camp, and one shall kill her before his face:

³A dáte ju Eleazárovi, kňazovi, ktorý ju vyvedie von za tábor, a tam ju zabijú pred jeho tvárou.

⁴and Eleazar the priest shall take of her blood with his finger, and sprinkle her blood toward the front of the Tent of Meeting seven times.

⁴A Eleazár, kňaz, vezme z jej krvi svojím prstom a pokropí jej krvou smerom ku stánu shromaždenia sedemkrát.

⁵One shall burn the heifer in his sight; her skin, and her flesh, and her blood, with her dung, shall he burn:

⁵A jalovicu spália pred jeho očima; jej kožu i jej mäso i jej krv i s jej lajnom spália.

⁶and the priest shall take cedar wood, and hyssop, and scarlet, and cast it into the midst of the burning of the heifer.

⁶Potom vezme kňaz cedrové drevo, yzop a červec, dvakrát farbený, a hodí to doprostred ohňa, v ktorom bude horieť jalovica.

⁷Then the priest shall wash his clothes, and he shall bathe his flesh in water, and afterward he shall come into the camp, and the priest shall be unclean until the evening.

⁷A kňaz operie svoje rúcho a umyje svoje telo vodou a potom vojde do tábora, a kňaz bude nečistý až do večera.

⁸He who burns her shall wash his clothes in water, and bathe his flesh in water, and shall be unclean until the evening.

⁸I ten, kto ju spálil, vyperie svoje rúcho vo vode a umyje svoje telo vodou a bude nečistý až do večera.

⁹“A man who is clean shall gather up the ashes of the heifer, and lay them up outside of the camp in a clean place; and it shall be kept for the congregation of the children of Israel for a water for impurity: it is a sin offering.

⁹A čistý človek soberie popol z jalovice a složí ho vonku za táborom na čistom mieste, a bude pre obec synov Izraelových, aby ho opatrovali k vode oddelenia, na kropenie; je to obeť za hriech.

¹⁰He who gathers the ashes of the heifer shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening: and it shall be to the children of Israel, and to the stranger who lives as a foreigner among them, for a statute forever.

¹⁰A ten, kto sobral popol z jalovice, operie svoje rúcho a bude nečistý až do večera. A bude to pre synov Izraelových ako i pre pohostína, ktorý bude pohostíniť medzi nimi, večným ustanovením.

¹¹“He who touches the dead body of any man shall be unclean seven days:

¹¹A ten, kto by sa dotkol mŕtveho, nech by to bola bývala jakákoľvek duša človeka, bude nečistý sedem dní.

¹²the same shall purify himself with water on the third day, and on the seventh day he shall be clean: but if he doesn’t purify himself the third day, then the seventh day he shall not be clean.

¹²Ten sa tým bude očisťovať od hriechu tretieho dňa a siedmeho dňa bude čistý. Ale ak by sa neočistil tretieho dňa od hriechu, nebude čistý siedmeho dňa.

¹³Whoever touches a dead person, the body of a man who has died, and doesn’t purify himself, defiles the tabernacle of Yahweh; and that soul shall be cut off from Israel: because the water for impurity was not sprinkled on him, he shall be unclean; his uncleanness is yet on him.

¹³Ktokoľvek by sa dotkol mŕtveho, duše človeka, ktorý zomrel, a neočistil by sa od hriechu, poškvrnil príbytok Hospodin; tá duša bude vyťatá z Izraela, lebo voda oddelenia nebola nakropená na neho; nečistý bude, jeho nečistota bude vždy na ňom.

¹⁴“This is the law when a man dies in a tent: everyone who comes into the tent, and everyone who is in the tent, shall be unclean seven days.

¹⁴Toto je zákon o tom, keby človek zomrel v stáne: Každý, kto vojde do takého stánu, jako i každý, kto vtedy bol v tom stáne, bude nečistý sedem dní.

¹⁵Every open vessel, which has no covering bound on it, is unclean.

¹⁵I každá nádoba odkrytá, na ktorej nie je priviazanej pokrývky, bude nečistá.

¹⁶“Whoever in the open field touches one who is slain with a sword, or a dead body, or a bone of a man, or a grave, shall be unclean seven days.

¹⁶A tak i každý, kto by sa dotkol na poli zabitého mečom alebo mŕtveho vôbec alebo kosti človeka alebo hrobu, bude nečistý sedem dní.

¹⁷“For the unclean they shall take of the ashes of the burning of the sin offering; and running water shall be put thereto in a vessel:

¹⁷Pre takého nečistého vezmú z prachu spáleného obeti za hriech a nalejú naň živej vody do nádoby.

¹⁸and a clean person shall take hyssop, and dip it in the water, and sprinkle it on the tent, and on all the vessels, and on the persons who were there, and on him who touched the bone, or the slain, or the dead, or the grave:

¹⁸A čistý človek vezme yzop, zamočí ho do vody a pokropí stán a všetky nádoby i všetky duše, ktoré boly tam, a tak i toho, kto sa dotknul kosti alebo zabitého alebo iného mŕtveho alebo hrobu.

¹⁹and the clean person shall sprinkle on the unclean on the third day, and on the seventh day: and on the seventh day he shall purify him; and he shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and shall be clean at evening.

¹⁹Čistý pokropí nečistého tretieho dňa a siedmeho dňa a tak ho očistí od hriechu siedmeho dňa. Potom operie svoje rúcho, umyje sa vodou a večer bude čistý.

²⁰But the man who shall be unclean, and shall not purify himself, that soul shall be cut off from the midst of the assembly, because he has defiled the sanctuary of Yahweh: the water for impurity has not been sprinkled on him; he is unclean.

²⁰Ale človek, ktorý by bol nečistý a neočistil by sa od hriechu, tá duša bude vyťatá zpomedzi shromaždenia, lebo zanečistil svätyňu Hospodinovu, voda oddelenia nebola nakropená na neho, nečistý je.

²¹It shall be a perpetual statute to them: and he who sprinkles the water for impurity shall wash his clothes, and he who touches the water for impurity shall be unclean until evening.

²¹Bude im to večným ustanovením. A ten, kto kropí vodou oddelenia, operie svoje rúcho. A ten, kto by sa dotknul vody oddelenia, bude nečistý až do večera.

²²“Whatever the unclean person touches shall be unclean; and the soul that touches it shall be unclean until evening.”

²²A všetko, čohokoľvek by sa dotkol nečistý, bude nečisté. Ako aj duša, ktorá by sa toho dotkla, bude nečistá až do večera.
