Ponovljeni zakon 30
1 Kad te sve ove riječi, blagoslov i prokletstvo što ih danas preda te stavih, snađu i ti ih uzmeš k srcu među svim narodima među koje te Jahve, Bog tvoj, bude protjerao
And it shall come to pass when all these things shall have come upon you, the blessing and the curse, which I have set before your face, and you shall call [them] to mind among all the nations, wherein the Lord shall have scattered you,
2 i obratiš se k Jahvi, Bogu svome, i poslušaš - i ti i tvoji sinovi - glas njegov iz svega srca svoga i iz sve duše svoje u svemu što sam ti danas naredio,
and shall return to the Lord your God, and shall listen to his voice, according to all things which I charge you this day, with all your heart, and with all your soul;
3 tada će Jahve, Bog tvoj, vratiti tvoje izgnanike; smilovat će se tebi i opet ćete sabrati između svih naroda među koje te bude rastjerao Jahve, Bog tvoj.
then the Lord shall heal your iniquities, and shall pity you, and shall again gather you out from all the nations, among which the Lord has scattered you.
4 Ako bi se koji izgnanik tvoj nalazio i na kraju svijeta, i odande će te sabrati Jahve, Bog tvoj - odande će te uzeti.
If your dispersion be from one end of heaven to the other, thence will the Lord your God gather you, and thence will the Lord your God take you.
5 Jahve, Bog tvoj, dovest će te u zemlju koju su posjedovali oci tvoji da je ti zaposjedneš; učinit će te sretnijim i brojnijim od očeva tvojih.
And the Lord your God shall bring you in from thence into the land which your fathers have inherited, and you shall inherit it; and he will do you good, and multiply you above your fathers.
6 Jahve, Bog tvoj, obrezat će tvoje srce, srce tvoga potomstva, tako da ljubiš Jahvu, Boga svoga, iz svega srca svoga i iz sve duše svoje i da živiš.
And the Lord shall purge your heart, and the heart of your seed, to love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, that you may live.
7 Jahve, Bog tvoj, svalit će sva ova prokletstva na neprijatelje tvoje, na mrzitelje tvoje koji su te progonili.
And the Lord your God will put these curses upon your enemies, and upon those that hate you, who have persecuted you.
8 A ti ćeš ponovo slušati glas Jahvin i vršiti sve njegove zapovijedi koje ti danas dajem.
And you shall return and listen to the voice of the Lord your God, and shall keep his commands, all that I charge you this day.
9 Jahve, Bog tvoj, obilno će te nagrađivati u svakom pothvatu ruku tvojih, u plodu utrobe tvoje, u plodu stoke tvoje i u urodu tvoga plodnog tla; jer Jahve će se opet radovati nad tvojim dobrom, kao što se radovao nad dobrom otaca tvojih,
And the Lord your God shall bless you in every work of your hands, in the offspring of your body, and in the offspring of your cattle, and in the fruits of your land, because the Lord your God will again rejoice over you for good, as he rejoiced over your fathers:
10 kad poslušaš glas Jahve, Boga svoga, držeći njegove zapovijedi i njegove naredbe zapisane u knjizi ovoga Zakona, to jest kada se obratiš Jahvi, Bogu svome, svim srcem svojim i svom dušom svojom.
if you will listen to the voice of the Lord your God, to keep his commandments, and his ordinances, and his judgments written in the book of this law, if you turn to the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul.
11 Ova zapovijed što ti je danas dajem nije za te preteška niti je od tebe predaleko.
For this command which I give you this day is not grievous, neither is it far from you.
12 Nije na nebesima da bi rekao: 'Tko će se za nas popeti na nebesa, skinuti nam je te nam je objaviti da je vršimo?'
It is not in heaven above, [as if there were one] saying, Who shall go up for us into heaven, and shall take it for us, and we will hear and do it?
13 Nije ni preko mora da bi mogao reći: 'Tko će preko mora za nas poći, donijeti nam je te nam je objaviti da je vršimo?'
Neither is it beyond the sea, saying, Who will go over for us to the other side of the sea, and take it for us, and make it audible to us, and we will do it?
14 Jer, Riječ je posve blizu tebe, u tvojim ustima i u tvome srcu da je vršiš.
The word is very near you, in your mouth, and in your heart, and in your hands to do it.
15 Gledaj! Danas preda te stavljam: život i sreću, smrt i nesreću.
Behold, I have set before you this day life and death, good and evil.
16 Ako poslušaš zapovijedi Jahve, Boga svoga, koje ti danas dajem - ako ih poslušaš ljubeći Jahvu, Boga svoga, hodeći njegovim putovima, vršeći njegove zapovijedi, njegove zakone i njegove uredbe, živjet ćeš i razmnožit će te Jahve, Bog tvoj, i blagoslovit će te u zemlji u koju ulaziš da je zaposjedneš.
If you will listen to the commands of the Lord your God, which I command you this day, to love the Lord your God, to walk in all his ways, and to keep his ordinances, and his judgments; then you shall live, and shall be many in number, and the Lord your God shall bless you in all the land into which you go to inherit it.
17 Ali ako se srce tvoje odvrati i ne poslušaš, nego zastraniš i budeš se klanjao drugim bogovima i njima iskazivao štovanje,
But if your heart change, and you will not listen, and you shall go astray and worship other gods, and serve them,
18 ja vam danas izjavljujem da ćete zaista propasti; nećete dugo živjeti na zemlji u koju ćete, prešavši Jordan, ući da je zaposjednete.
I declare to you this day, that you shall utterly perish, and you shall by no means live long upon the land, into which you go over Jordan to inherit it.
19 Uzimam danas za svjedoke protiv vas nebo i zemlju da pred vas stavljam: život i smrt, blagoslov i prokletstvo. Život, dakle, biraj,
I call both heaven and earth to witness this day against you, I have set before you life and death, the blessing and the curse: choose you life, that you and your seed may live;
20 ljubeći Jahvu, Boga svoga, slušajući njegov glas, prianjajući uz njega, da živiš ti i tvoje potomstvo. TÓa on je život tvoj, tvoj dugi vijek, da bi mirno mogao boraviti na zemlji za koju se Jahve zakle ocima tvojim Abrahamu, Izaku i Jakovu da će im je dati.”
to love the Lord your God, to listen to his voice, and cleave to him; for this [is] your life, and the length of your days, that you should dwell upon the land, which the Lord sware to your fathers, Abraam, and Isaac, and Jacob, to give to them.
