Ponovljeni zakon 29
1 To su riječi Saveza što ga propisa Jahve Mojsiju da ga sklopi s Izraelcima u zemlji moapskoj, povrh Saveza što ga je s njima sklopio na Horebu.
These are the words of the covenant that the LORD commanded Moses to make with the Israelites in the land of Moab, in addition to the covenant He had made with them at Horeb.
2 Mojsije sazva sav Izrael pa im reče: “Vidjeli ste na rođene oči sve što je Jahve učinio u zemlji egipatskoj faraonu, svim službenicima njegovim i svoj zemlji njegovoj:
Moses summoned all Israel and proclaimed to them, “You have seen with your own eyes everything the LORD did in Egypt to Pharaoh, to all his officials, and to all his land.
3 velike kušnje što su ih vidjele tvoje oči, silne znakove i čudesa!
You saw with your own eyes the great trials, and those miraculous signs and wonders.
4 Ali vam ne dade Jahve do danas razuma da shvatite, očiju da vidite ni ušiju da čujete.
Yet to this day the LORD has not given you a mind to understand, eyes to see, or ears to hear.
5 Vodio sam vas pustinjom četrdeset godina; odjeća se na vama nije izderala niti su se sandale na vašim nogama raskidale.
For forty years I led you in the wilderness, yet your clothes and sandals did not wear out.
6 Kruha niste jeli; vina ni drugoga opojnog pića niste pili, da biste znali da sam ja Jahve, Bog vaš.
You ate no bread and drank no wine or strong drink, so that you might know that I am the LORD your God.
7 Kad stigoste na novo mjesto, Sihon, kralj hešbonski, i Og, kralj bašanski, iziđoše pred nas u boj, ali smo ih potukli.
When you reached this place, Sihon king of Heshbon and Og king of Bashan came out against us in battle, but we defeated them.
8 Zauzeli smo njihovu zemlju te je predali u baštinu Rubenovcima, Gadovcima i polovini plemena Manašeova.
We took their land and gave it as an inheritance to the Reubenites, the Gadites, and the half-tribe of Manasseh.
9 Držite i vršite riječi ovog Saveza da uspijevate u svemu što poduzmete.
So keep and follow the words of this covenant, that you may prosper in all you do.
10 Danas stojite svi pred Jahvom, Bogom svojim: vaši plemenski glavari, vaše starješine i vaši nadglednici, svi muževi Izraela,
All of you are standing today before the LORD your God—you leaders of tribes, elders, officials, and all the men of Israel,
11 djeca vaša, žene vaše i došljak koji je u tvome taboru - od onoga koji ti siječe drva do onoga koji ti nosi vodu -
your children and wives, and the foreigners in your camps who cut your wood and draw your water—
12 da stupite u Savez s Jahvom, Bogom svojim, u Savez zakletvom potvrđen, što ga Jahve, Bog tvoj, danas s tobom sklapa
so that you may enter into the covenant of the LORD your God, which He is making with you today, and into His oath,
13 da danas od tebe učini svoj narod i da ti on bude Bog, kako ti je rekao i kako se zakleo tvojim ocima: Abrahamu, Izaku i Jakovu.
and so that He may establish you today as His people, and He may be your God as He promised you and as He swore to your fathers, to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
14 I ne sklapam danas ovaj Savez sa zakletvom samo s vama
I am making this covenant and this oath not only with you,
15 nego i sa svakim koji danas stoji ovdje s nama pred Jahvom, Bogom našim, i sa svakim koji danas nije ovdje s nama.
but also with those who are standing here with us today in the presence of the LORD our God, as well as with those who are not here today.
16 Sami znate kako smo boravili u zemlji egipatskoj i kako smo prošli posred naroda kroz koje ste morali proći.
For you yourselves know how we lived in the land of Egypt and how we passed through the nations on the way here.
17 Vidjeli ste njihove rugobe, njihove kumire od drveta i kamena, srebra i zlata što ih imaju.
You saw the abominations and idols among them made of wood and stone, of silver and gold.
18 Neka ne bude među vama čovjeka ni žene, roda ni plemena kojemu bi se srce danas odvratilo od Jahve, Boga našega, pa da ide iskazivati štovanje bogovima onih naroda. Neka ne bude među vama korijena koji rađa otrovom i pelinom.
Make sure there is no man or woman, clan or tribe among you today whose heart turns away from the LORD our God to go and worship the gods of those nations. Make sure there is no root among you that bears such poisonous and bitter fruit,
19 Neka se nitko, čuvši riječi ovog prokletstva, ne nada blagoslovu kazujući u svome srcu: 'Bit će mi dobro ako poživim i po prohtjevima srca svoga. Nek' povodanj utaži žeđ!'
because when such a person hears the words of this oath, he invokes a blessing on himself, saying, ‘I will have peace, even though I walk in the stubbornness of my own heart.’ This will bring disaster on the watered land as well as the dry.
20 Takvome neće Jahve nikad oprostiti, nego će se gnjev i ljubomornost Jahvina izliti na tog čovjeka, tako da će se sve prokletstvo zapisano u ovoj knjizi na nj oboriti te će Jahve izbrisati ime njegovo pod nebom.
The LORD will never be willing to forgive him. Instead, His anger and jealousy will burn against that man, and every curse written in this book will fall upon him. The LORD will blot out his name from under heaven
21 Prema svim prokletstvima ovog Saveza, zapisanima u knjizi ovoga Zakona, Jahve će ga odstraniti, na njegovu propast, od svih plemena izraelskih.
and single him out from all the tribes of Israel for disaster, according to all the curses of the covenant written in this Book of the Law.
22 Kasniji naraštaj, sinovi vaši poslije vas, i stranci koji dođu iz daleke zemlje, kad vide zla ove zemlje i bolesti što će ih Jahve pustiti na nju, reći će:
Then the generation to come—your sons who follow you and the foreigner who comes from a distant land—will see the plagues of the land and the sicknesses the LORD has inflicted on it.
23 'Sva je zemlja njegova samo sumpor i sol; niti se što sije niti što klija; nikakva travka na njoj ne raste; jednaka je srušenoj Sodomi i Gomori, Admi i Sebojimu, što ih Jahve sruši u svojoj ljutini i gnjevu.'
All its soil will be a burning waste of sulfur and salt, unsown and unproductive, with no plant growing on it, just like the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah, Admah and Zeboiim, which the LORD overthrew in His fierce anger.
24 I svi će narodi pitati: 'Zašto učini Jahve ovako ovoj zemlji? Kakva je morala biti žestina toga silnoga gnjeva?'
So all the nations will ask, ‘Why has the LORD done such a thing to this land? Why this great outburst of anger?’
25 Onda će im se reći: 'Jer su ostavili Savez što ga je Jahve, Bog otaca njihovih, bio sklopio s njima kad ih je izveo iz zemlje egipatske;
And the people will answer, ‘It is because they abandoned the covenant of the LORD, the God of their fathers, which He made with them when He brought them out of the land of Egypt.
26 i jer su otišli da iskazuju štovanje drugim bogovima i njima se klanjali, bogovima kojih nisu poznavali i kojih im on nije odredio.
They went and served other gods, and they worshiped gods they had not known—gods that the LORD had not given to them.
27 Zato se Jahvin gnjev izlio na ovu zemlju i palo na nju sve prokletstvo zapisano u ovoj knjizi.
Therefore the anger of the LORD burned against this land, and He brought upon it every curse written in this book.
28 Jahve ih je iščupao iz njihove zemlje u ljutini, srdžbi i velikom gnjevu te ih bacio u drugu zemlju. Tako je i danas.'
The LORD uprooted them from their land in His anger, rage, and great wrath, and He cast them into another land, where they are today.’
29 Što je sakriveno, pripada Jahvi, Bogu našemu, a objava nama i sinovima našim zauvijek da vršimo sve riječi ovoga Zakona.
The secret things belong to the LORD our God, but the things revealed belong to us and to our children forever, so that we may follow all the words of this law.
