Joshua 22

Then Joshua called the Reubenites, and the Gadites, and the half tribe of Manasseh,

Tada sazove Jošua sinove Rubenove i Gadove i polovinu plemena Manašeova

And said unto them, Ye have kept all that Moses the servant of the LORD commanded you, and have obeyed my voice in all that I commanded you:

i reče im: "Izvršili ste sve što vam je Mojsije, sluga Jahvin, zapovjedio i poslušali ste me u svemu što sam vam zapovjedio.

Ye have not left your brethren these many days unto this day, but have kept the charge of the commandment of the LORD your God.

Niste ostavili svoje braće unatoč dugom vojevanju do današnjega dana i vršili ste vjerno zapovijedi Jahve, Boga svojega.

And now the LORD your God hath given rest unto your brethren, as he promised them: therefore now return ye, and get you unto your tents, and unto the land of your possession, which Moses the servant of the LORD gave you on the other side Jordan.

Sada je Jahve, Bog vaš, dao mir braći vašoj, kako im bijaše obećao. Vratite se sada u svoje šatore, u zemlju koju vam je dao Mojsije, sluga Jahvin, u baštinu s onu stranu Jordana.

But take diligent heed to do the commandment and the law, which Moses the servant of the LORD charged you, to love the LORD your God, and to walk in all his ways, and to keep his commandments, and to cleave unto him, and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul.

Samo pazite da vršite zapovijedi i Zakon što vam ga dade Mojsije, sluga Jahvin: da ljubite Jahvu, Boga svojega, da uvijek idete putovima njegovim, da čuvate zapovijedi njegove, da se držite uz njega i da mu služite svim srcem i svom dušom."

So Joshua blessed them, and sent them away: and they went unto their tents.

I blagoslovi ih Jošua i otpusti, a oni se zatim vrate u svoje šatore.

Now to the one half of the tribe of Manasseh Moses had given possession in Bashan: but unto the other half thereof gave Joshua among their brethren on this side Jordan westward. And when Joshua sent them away also unto their tents, then he blessed them,

Mojsije bijaše jednoj polovini plemena Manašeova dao baštinu u Bašanu; a drugoj polovini dade je Jošua usred njihove braće zapadno od Jordana. Otpuštajući ih u njihove šatore, Jošua ih blagoslovi.

And he spake unto them, saying, Return with much riches unto your tents, and with very much cattle, with silver, and with gold, and with brass, and with iron, and with very much raiment: divide the spoil of your enemies with your brethren.

I reče im: "Vratite se u svoje šatore s velikim blagom i s mnogom stokom, sa srebrom, zlatom, tučem, željezom i haljinama u izobilju i podijelite plijen od neprijatelja svojih s braćom svojom."

And the children of Reuben and the children of Gad and the half tribe of Manasseh returned, and departed from the children of Israel out of Shiloh, which is in the land of Canaan, to go unto the country of Gilead, to the land of their possession, whereof they were possessed, according to the word of the LORD by the hand of Moses.

Vratiše se sinovi Rubenovi i sinovi Gadovi i polovina plemena Manašeova; odoše od sinova Izraelovih iz Šila u zemlji kanaanskoj da krenu u zemlju gileadsku, na svoju baštinu koju su zaposjeli, kako im je zapovjedio Jahve preko Mojsija.

And when they came unto the borders of Jordan, that are in the land of Canaan, the children of Reuben and the children of Gad and the half tribe of Manasseh built there an altar by Jordan, a great altar to see to.

Kad su stigli do jordanskog područja u zemlji kanaanskoj, podigoše sinovi Rubenovi, sinovi Gadovi i polovina plemena Manašeova žrtvenik na Jordanu, žrtvenik velik, izdaleka se vidio.

And the children of Israel heard say, Behold, the children of Reuben and the children of Gad and the half tribe of Manasseh have built an altar over against the land of Canaan, in the borders of Jordan, at the passage of the children of Israel.

Čuli Izraelci gdje se govori: "Evo, sinovi Rubenovi, sinovi Gadovi i polovina plemena Manašeova podigoše žrtvenik prema zemlji kanaanskoj, kod Jordana, na izraelskoj strani."

And when the children of Israel heard of it, the whole congregation of the children of Israel gathered themselves together at Shiloh, to go up to war against them.

Na to se skupi sva zajednica sinova Izraelovih u Šilu da pođu u boj na njih.

And the children of Israel sent unto the children of Reuben, and to the children of Gad, and to the half tribe of Manasseh, into the land of Gilead, Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest,

Izraelci sinovima Rubenovim, sinovima Gadovim i polovini plemena Manašeova u gileadsku zemlju poslaše Pinhasa, sina svećenika Eleazara,

And with him ten princes, of each chief house a prince throughout all the tribes of Israel; and each one was an head of the house of their fathers among the thousands of Israel.

i s njime deset knezova, po jednoga rodovskog glavara od svakoga plemena Izraelova, a svaki je od njih bio glavar obitelji među tisućama porodica Izraelovih.

And they came unto the children of Reuben, and to the children of Gad, and to the half tribe of Manasseh, unto the land of Gilead, and they spake with them, saying,

I kad oni dođoše k sinovima Rubenovim, sinovima Gadovim i polovini plemena Manašeova u zemlju gileadsku, rekoše im:

Thus saith the whole congregation of the LORD, What trespass is this that ye have committed against the God of Israel, to turn away this day from following the LORD, in that ye have builded you an altar, that ye might rebel this day against the LORD?

"Evo što veli sva zajednica Jahvina: 'Što znači nevjera koju činite protiv Jahve, Boga Izraelova? Zašto se odvrgoste danas od Jahve i, podigavši žrtvenik, zašto se bunite protiv Jahve?

Is the iniquity of Peor too little for us, from which we are not cleansed until this day, although there was a plague in the congregation of the LORD,

Zar vam nije dosta zločina iz Peora, od kojega se nismo očistili do dana današnjega i zbog kojega je došao pomor na zajednicu Jahvinu?

But that ye must turn away this day from following the LORD? and it will be, seeing ye rebel to day against the LORD, that to morrow he will be wroth with the whole congregation of Israel.

Ako se danas odvraćate od Jahve i bunite se danas protiv njega, neće li se sutra izliti njegov gnjev na svu zajednicu Izraelovu?

Notwithstanding, if the land of your possession be unclean, then pass ye over unto the land of the possession of the LORD, wherein the LORD'S tabernacle dwelleth, and take possession among us: but rebel not against the LORD, nor rebel against us, in building you an altar beside the altar of the LORD our God.

Ili vam je možda zemlja vaše baštine nečista? Onda prijeđite u zemlju baštine Jahvine, u kojoj je Jahvino Prebivalište, i prebivajte među nama. Ali se ne bunite protiv Jahve i ne bunite se protiv nas dižući sebi žrtvenik mimo žrtvenik Jahve, Boga našega.

Did not Achan the son of Zerah commit a trespass in the accursed thing, and wrath fell on all the congregation of Israel? and that man perished not alone in his iniquity.

Nije li se Akan, Zerahov sin, sam ogriješio o 'herem' te se oborila srdžba na svu zajednicu Izraelovu? Zar nije umro zbog krivice svoje?'"

Then the children of Reuben and the children of Gad and the half tribe of Manasseh answered, and said unto the heads of the thousands of Israel,

Tada odgovoriše sinovi Rubenovi, sinovi Gadovi i polovina plemena Manašeova govoreći plemenskim glavarima Izraelovim:

The LORD God of gods, the LORD God of gods, he knoweth, and Israel he shall know; if it be in rebellion, or if in transgression against the LORD, (save us not this day,)

"Bog, Bog Jahve, Bog nad bogovima, Jahve zna i neka zna Izrael: ako je to bila pobuna ili nevjernost prema Jahvi, neka nam uskrati svoju pomoć danas;

That we have built us an altar to turn from following the LORD, or if to offer thereon burnt offering or meat offering, or if to offer peace offerings thereon, let the LORD himself require it;

ako smo podigli žrtvenik da se odvrgnemo od Jahve i da prinosimo žrtve paljenice, prinosnice i žrtve pričesnice, neka nam onda sudi Jahve!

And if we have not rather done it for fear of this thing, saying, In time to come your children might speak unto our children, saying, What have ye to do with the LORD God of Israel?

Učinismo to od brige i skrbi i rekosmo: 'Jednoga će dana sinovi vaši reći našima: Što vam je zajedničko s Jahvom, Bogom Izraelovim?

For the LORD hath made Jordan a border between us and you, ye children of Reuben and children of Gad; ye have no part in the LORD: so shall your children make our children cease from fearing the LORD.

Zar nije, sinovi Rubenovi i sinovi Gadovi, postavio Jahve između vas i nas među našu - Jordan? Vi nemate dijela s Jahvom.' I tako bi sinovi vaši mogli učiniti da se sinovi naši odvrate te ne štuju Jahvu.

Therefore we said, Let us now prepare to build us an altar, not for burnt offering, nor for sacrifice:

Zato smo rekli: 'Podignimo žrtvenik, ali ne za žrtve paljenice niti za klanice,

But that it may be a witness between us, and you, and our generations after us, that we might do the service of the LORD before him with our burnt offerings, and with our sacrifices, and with our peace offerings; that your children may not say to our children in time to come, Ye have no part in the LORD.

nego da bude svjedočanstvo između nas i vas, među potomcima našim, da želimo služiti Jahvi paljenicama, klanicama i pričesnicama. Tako da ne mognu jednom vaši sinovi reći našima: Nemate dijela s Jahvom.'

Therefore said we, that it shall be, when they should so say to us or to our generations in time to come, that we may say again, Behold the pattern of the altar of the LORD, which our fathers made, not for burnt offerings, nor for sacrifices; but it is a witness between us and you.

Ako bi kada tako rekli nama i potomcima našim, mogli bismo odgovoriti: 'Pogledajte slog žrtvenika Jahvina što su ga podigli oci naši ne za žrtve paljenice ni klanice, nego za svjedočanstvo između nas i vas.'

God forbid that we should rebel against the LORD, and turn this day from following the LORD, to build an altar for burnt offerings, for meat offerings, or for sacrifices, beside the altar of the LORD our God that is before his tabernacle.

Nije nam ni na kraj pameti pomisao da se bunimo protiv Jahve i da se odvraćamo od njega dižući žrtvenik za žrtve paljenice, prinosnice i klanice, mimo žrtvenik Jahve, Boga našega, koji je pred njegovim Prebivalištem!"

And when Phinehas the priest, and the princes of the congregation and heads of the thousands of Israel which were with him, heard the words that the children of Reuben and the children of Gad and the children of Manasseh spake, it pleased them.

Kad svećenik Pinhas, knezovi zbora i glavari izraelskih plemena koji su bili s njim čuše riječi koje im rekoše sinovi Gadovi, sinovi Rubenovi i sinovi Manašeovi, umiriše se.

And Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest said unto the children of Reuben, and to the children of Gad, and to the children of Manasseh, This day we perceive that the LORD is among us, because ye have not committed this trespass against the LORD: now ye have delivered the children of Israel out of the hand of the LORD.

Tada svećenik Pinhas, sin Eleazarov, odgovori sinovima Rubenovim, sinovima Gadovim i sinovima Manašeovim: "Spoznali smo sada da je Jahve među nama, jer mu se niste iznevjerili: tako ste sačuvali sinove Izraelove od kazne Jahvine."

And Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest, and the princes, returned from the children of Reuben, and from the children of Gad, out of the land of Gilead, unto the land of Canaan, to the children of Israel, and brought them word again.

Svećenik Pinhas, sin Eleazarov, i knezovi odoše od sinova Rubenovih i sinova Gadovih i vratiše se iz zemlje gileadske u kanaansku k sinovima Izraelovim i kazaše im odgovor.

And the thing pleased the children of Israel; and the children of Israel blessed God, and did not intend to go up against them in battle, to destroy the land wherein the children of Reuben and Gad dwelt.

Izraelovim sinovima bijaše drag taj odgovor: hvalili su Boga i odustali su od nauma da udare na njih i da opustoše zemlju u kojoj su živjeli sinovi Rubenovi i sinovi Gadovi.

And the children of Reuben and the children of Gad called the altar Ed: for it shall be a witness between us that the LORD is God.

Sinovi Rubenovi i sinovi Gadovi nazvali su žrtvenik "Ed" - "Svjedočanstvo", jer rekoše: "To je svjedočanstvo među nama: Jahve je Bog."
