Izlazak 23

Studie

   

1 "Nemojte davati lažne izjave! Ne pomaži zlikovcu svjedočeći krivo!

2 Ne povodi se za mnoštvom da činiš zlo; niti svjedoči u parnici stajući na stranu većine protiv pravde.

3 Ne smiješ biti pristran prema siromahu u njegovoj parnici.

4 Kad nabasaš na zalutalo goveče ili magare svoga neprijatelja, moraš mu ga natrag dovesti.

5 Ako opaziš magarca onoga koji te mrzi kako je pao pod svojim tovarom, nemoj ga ostaviti: zajedno s njegovim gospodarom moraš mu pomoći da se digne.

6 Ne krnji prava svome siromahu u njegovoj parnici.

7 Stoj daleko od lažne optužbe; ne ubijaj nedužna i pravedna, jer ja zlikovcu ne praštam.

8 Ne primaj mita, jer mito zasljepljuje i one koji najjasnije gledaju i upropašćuje pravo pravednika.

9 Ne ugnjetavaj pridošlicu! TÓa znate kako je pridošlici; i sami ste bili pridošlice u zemlji egipatskoj."

10 "Šest godina zasijavaj svoju zemlju i njezine plodove pobiri,

11 a sedme je godine pusti da počiva neobrađena. Neka se s nje hrani sirotinja tvoga naroda, a što njoj ostane, neka pojede poljska živina. Radi tako i sa svojim vinogradom i svojim maslinikom.

12 Šest dana obavljaj svoj posao, ali sedmoga dana od posala odustani, da ti otpočine vo i magarac i da odahne sin tvoje sluškinje i pridošlica.

13 Pripazite na sve što sam vam rekao. Ne spominjite imena drugih bogova. Neka se to i ne čuje iz tvojih usta."

14 "Triput na godinu održavaj u moju čast svetkovinu.

15 Slavi Blagdan beskvasnoga kruha. U određeno vrijeme u mjesecu Abibu - jer si u njemu iz Egipta izišao - sedam dana jedi beskvasan kruh, kako sam ti naredio. Neka nitko ne stupa preda me praznih ruku!

16 Onda slavi Blagdan žetve - prvina što ih donose polja koja zasijavaš. Zatim Blagdan berbe na koncu godine, kad s polja pokupiš plodove svoga truda.

17 Triput na godinu neka svi tvoji muški stupe pred Gospodara Jahvu.

18 Krv žrtve koju u moju čast žrtvuješ nemoj prinositi s ukvasanim kruhom; salo od žrtve prinesene na moju svetkovinu ne ostavljaj za sutradan.

19 Donosi u kuću Jahve, svoga Boga, najbolje prvine sa svoje zemlje. Ne kuhaj kozleta u mlijeku njegove majke."

20 "Šaljem, evo, svog anđela pred tobom da te čuva na putu i dovede te u mjesto koje sam priredio.

21 Poštuj ga i slušaj! Ne buni se protiv njega, jer vam neće opraštati prekršaje: tÓa moje je ime u njemu.

22 Ako mu se budeš vjerno pokoravao i budeš vršio sve što sam naredio, ja ću biti neprijatelj tvojim neprijateljima i protivnik tvojim protivnicima.

23 Anđeo će moj ići pred tobom i dovesti te do Amorejaca, Hetita, Perižana, Kanaanaca, Hivijaca i Jebusejaca da ih uništim.

24 Nemoj se klanjati njihovim kumirima niti im iskazuj štovanje; ne postupaj kako oni rade nego njihove kumire poruši i stupove im porazbijaj.

25 Iskazujte štovanje Jahvi, Bogu svome, pa ću blagoslivati tvoj kruh i tvoju vodu i uklanjati od tebe bolest.

26 U tvojoj zemlji neće biti pometkinje; ja ću učiniti punim broj tvojih dana.

27 Pred tobom ću odaslati stravu svoju; u metež ću baciti sav svijet među koji dospiješ i učinit ću da svi tvoji neprijatelji bježe pred tobom.

28 Stršljene ću pred tobom odašiljati da ispred tebe tjeraju u bijeg Hivijce, Kanaance i Hetite.

29 Neću ih otjerati ispred tebe u jednoj godini, da zemlja ne opusti i divlje se životinje ne razmnože na tvoju štetu.

30 Tjerat ću ih ispred tebe malo-pomalo dok ti potomstvo ne odraste, tako da zemlju zaposjedneš.

31 Postavit ću ti granicu: od Crvenoga do Filistejskoga mora, od pustinje pa do Rijeke. Predat ću, naime, stanovništvo zemlje u tvoje šake, a ti ga ispred sebe tjeraj.

32 Ne pravi savez ni s njima ni s njihovim kumirima.

33 Neka ne ostanu u tvojoj zemlji da te ne navode na grijeh protiv mene. Ako bi štovao njihove kumire, to bi ti bila stupica."

9290. 'As I commanded you' means in keeping with the laws of order. This is clear from the meaning of 'commanding', when done by the Lord, as Divine Truth emanating from Him, for that Truth contains and teaches the commandments that have to do with life and with worship. This Divine Truth constitutes order itself in the heavens, and truths compose the laws of that order, 1728, 1919, 2258, 2447, 5703, 7995, 8700, 8988. From this it is evident that 'as I commanded you' means in keeping with the laws of order.

Exodus 23

Studie

   

1 "You shall not spread a false report. Don't join your hand with the wicked to be a malicious witness.

2 "You shall not follow a crowd to do evil; neither shall you testify in court to side with a multitude to pervert justice;

3 neither shall you favor a poor man in his cause.

4 "If you meet your enemy's ox or his donkey going astray, you shall surely bring it back to him again.

5 If you see the donkey of him who hates you fallen down under his burden, don't leave him, you shall surely help him with it.

6 "You shall not deny justice to your poor people in their lawsuits.

7 "Keep far from a false charge, and don't kill the innocent and righteous: for I will not justify the wicked.

8 "You shall take no bribe, for a bribe blinds those who have sight and perverts the words of the righteous.

9 "You shall not oppress an alien, for you know the heart of an alien, since you were aliens in the land of Egypt.

10 "For six years you shall sow your land, and shall gather in its increase,

11 but the seventh year you shall let it rest and lie fallow, that the poor of your people may eat; and what they leave the animal of the field shall eat. In the same way, you shall deal with your vineyard and with your olive grove.

12 "Six days you shall do your work, and on the seventh day you shall rest, that your ox and your donkey may have rest, and the son of your handmaid, and the alien may be refreshed.

13 "Be careful to do all things that I have said to you; and don't invoke the name of other gods, neither let them be heard out of your mouth.

14 "You shall observe a feast to me three times a year.

15 You shall observe the feast of unleavened bread. Seven days you shall eat unleavened bread, as I commanded you, at the time appointed in the month Abib (for in it you came out from Egypt), and no one shall appear before me empty.

16 And the feast of harvest, the first fruits of your labors, which you sow in the field: and the feast of harvest, at the end of the year, when you gather in your labors out of the field.

17 Three times in the year all your males shall appear before the Lord Yahweh.

18 "You shall not offer the blood of my sacrifice with leavened bread, neither shall the fat of my feast remain all night until the morning.

19 The first of the first fruits of your ground you shall bring into the house of Yahweh your God. "You shall not boil a young goat in its mother's milk.

20 "Behold, I send an angel before you, to keep you by the way, and to bring you into the place which I have prepared.

21 Pay attention to him, and listen to his voice. Don't provoke him, for he will not pardon your disobedience, for my name is in him.

22 But if you indeed listen to his voice, and do all that I speak, then I will be an enemy to your enemies, and an adversary to your adversaries.

23 For my angel shall go before you, and bring you in to the Amorite, the Hittite, the Perizzite, the Canaanite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite; and I will cut them off.

24 You shall not bow down to their gods, nor serve them, nor follow their practices, but you shall utterly overthrow them and demolish their pillars.

25 You shall serve Yahweh your God, and he will bless your bread and your water, and I will take sickness away from your midst.

26 No one will miscarry or be barren in your land. I will fulfill the number of your days.

27 I will send my terror before you, and will confuse all the people to whom you come, and I will make all your enemies turn their backs to you.

28 I will send the hornet before you, which will drive out the Hivite, the Canaanite, and the Hittite, from before you.

29 I will not drive them out from before you in one year, lest the land become desolate, and the animals of the field multiply against you.

30 Little by little I will drive them out from before you, until you have increased and inherit the land.

31 I will set your border from the Red Sea even to the sea of the Philistines, and from the wilderness to the River; for I will deliver the inhabitants of the land into your hand, and you shall drive them out before you.

32 You shall make no covenant with them, nor with their gods.

33 They shall not dwell in your land, lest they make you sin against me, for if you serve their gods, it will surely be a snare to you."
