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
It shall happen, when all these things have come on you, the blessing and the curse, which I have set before you, and you shall call them to mind among all the nations where the LORD your God has driven 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 return to the LORD your God and obey his voice according to all that I command you today, you and your children, 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.
that then the LORD your God will release you from captivity, have compassion on you, and will return and gather you from all the peoples where the LORD your God 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 outcasts are in the uttermost parts of the heavens, from there the LORD your God will gather you, and from there he will bring you back.
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.
The LORD your God will bring you into the land which your fathers possessed, and you will possess it. He will do you good, and increase your numbers more than 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.
The LORD your God will circumcise your heart, and the heart of your offspring, 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.
The LORD your God will put all these curses on your enemies and on those who hate you, who persecuted you.
8 A ti ćeš ponovo slušati glas Jahvin i vršiti sve njegove zapovijedi koje ti danas dajem.
You shall return and obey the LORD’s voice, and do all his commandments which I command you today.
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,
The LORD your God will make you prosperous in all the work of your hand, in the fruit of your body, in the fruit of your livestock, and in the fruit of your ground, for good; for the LORD 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 obey the LORD your God’s voice, to keep his commandments and his statutes which are written in this book of the 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 commandment which I command you today is not too hard for you or too distant.
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, that you should say, “Who will go up for us to heaven, bring it to us, and proclaim it to us, that we may 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, that you should say, “Who will go over the sea for us, bring it to us, and proclaim it to us, that we may do it?”
14 Jer, Riječ je posve blizu tebe, u tvojim ustima i u tvome srcu da je vršiš.
But the word is very near to you, in your mouth and in your heart, that you may do it.
15 Gledaj! Danas preda te stavljam: život i sreću, smrt i nesreću.
Behold, I have set before you today life and prosperity, and death 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.
For I command you today to love the LORD your God, to walk in his ways and to keep his commandments, his statutes, and his ordinances, that you may live and multiply, and that the LORD your God may bless you in the land where you go in to possess 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 turns away, and you will not hear, but are drawn away 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 today that you will surely perish. You will not prolong your days in the land where you pass over the Jordan to go in to possess 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 heaven and earth to witness against you today that I have set before you life and death, the blessing and the curse. Therefore choose life, that you may live, you and your descendants,
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 obey his voice, and to cling to him; for he is your life, and the length of your days, that you may dwell in the land which the LORD swore to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give them.
