Ponovljeni zakon 32
1 “Slušajte, nebesa, sad ću govoriti; čuj, zemljo, riječi usta mojih!
Give ear, ye heavens, and I will speak, and let the earth hear the words of my mouth.
2 Nek' mi nauk daždi poput kiše, kao rosa riječ nek' moja pada, kao kišica po mladoj zeleni, kao pljusak po travi velikoj!
My doctrine shall drop as the rain. My speech shall distil as the dew, as the small rain upon the tender grass, and as the showers upon the herb.
3 Jer, Jahvino ću ime uznositi, a vi Boga našeg veličajte!
For I will proclaim the name of Jehovah. Ascribe ye greatness to our God.
4 On je Stijena, djelo mu je savršeno, jer pravi su svi njegovi putovi. Bog je on vjeran i bez zloće, pravedan je on i pravičan.
The Rock, his work is perfect, for all his ways are justice, a God of faithfulness and without iniquity, just and right is he.
5 Oni mu se iznevjeriše - nisu mu sinovi, već nakaze sinovske, porod izopačen i prepreden.
They have dealt corruptly with him. They are not his sons, it is their blemish, a perverse and crooked generation.
6 Tako li uzvraćaš Jahvi, narode glupi i bezumni! Nije li on Otac tvoj, Stvoritelj, koji te sazdao, po kom postojiš?
Do ye thus requite Jehovah, O foolish people and unwise? Is not he thy father who has bought thee? He has made thee, and established thee.
7 Spomeni se dana pradavnih, promotri godine od naraštaja do naraštaja. Oca svoga pitaj, i poučit će te, pitaj starije, pa će ti kazati.
Remember the days of old. Consider the years of many generations. Ask thy father, and he will show thee, thine elders, and they will tell thee.
8 Kad je Višnji baštinu dijelio narodima, kad je razmještao sinove čovječje, odredi im međe po broju Božjih sinova:
When the Most High gave to the nations their inheritance, when he separated the sons of men, he set the bounds of the peoples according to the number of the sons of Israel.
9 tad Jahvu njegov narod zapade, Jakov bi njegova baština.
For Jehovah's portion is his people. Jacob is the lot of his inheritance.
10 U zemlji stepskoj on ga je našao, u pustinjskoj jezivoj pustoši. Obujmio ga, gajio ga i čuvao k'o zjenu oka svoga.
He found him in a desert land, and in the waste howling wilderness. He compassed him about. He cared for him. He kept him as the apple of his eye.
11 Poput orla što bdi nad gnijezdom, nad svojim orlićima lebdeći, tako on krila širi, uzima ga, pa ga na svojim nosi perima.
As an eagle that stirs up her nest, that flutters over her young, he spread abroad his wings. He took them. He bore them on his pinions.
12 Jahve sam njega je vodio, tuđeg boga s njim ne bijaše.
Jehovah alone led him, and there was no foreign god with him.
13 Povede ga po visočjima zemlje, nahrani ga plodovima poljskim, dade mu meda iz pećine i ulja iz tvrde stijene;
He made him ride on the high places of the earth, and he ate the increase of the field, and he made him to suck honey out of the rock, and oil out of the flinty rock,
14 kravljeg masla i ovčjeg mlijeka s pretilinom jaganjaca, ovnova bašanskih i jaraca, sa salom žitnih bubrega, i napoji ga pjenušavom krvlju grožđa.
butter of the herd, and milk of the flock, with fat of lambs, and rams of the breed of Bashan, and goats, with the finest of the wheat, and of the blood of the grape thou drank wine.
15 Jeo je Jakov i nasitio se, ugojio se Ješurun pa se uzritao. Udebljao si se, utovio, usalio. Odbacio je Boga koji ga stvori i prezreo Stijenu svog spasenja.
But Jeshurun grew fat, and kicked. Thou have grown fat. Thou have grown thick. Thou have become sleek. Then he forsook God who made him, and lightly esteemed the Rock of his salvation.
16 Tuđim bozima učiniše ga ljubomornim, razjariše ga gnusobama.
They moved him to jealousy with strange gods. With abominations they provoked him to anger.
17 Žrtvovahu zlodusima koji Bog nisu, bogovima kojih ne poznavahu prije, došljacima koji stigoše nedavno i koje oci njihovi ne štovahu.
They sacrificed to demons, not God, to gods that they knew not, to new gods that came up of late, which your fathers did not dread.
18 Odnemaruješ Stijenu što te na svijet dade, ne sjećaš se više Boga koji te rodi!
Thou are unmindful of the Rock that begot thee, and have forgotten God who gave thee birth.
19 Vidje to Jahve i u gnjevu svojem odbaci sinove svoje i kćeri.
And Jehovah saw, and abhorred, because of the provocation of his sons and his daughters.
20 Lice ću im svoje sakriti, reče, i vidjet ću što će biti od njih. Jer izopačeno je to koljeno, sinovi u kojima vjernosti nema.
And he said, I will hide my face from them. I will see what their end shall be. For they are a very perverse generation, sons in whom is no faithfulness.
21 Ništavnim me bogom na ljubomor potakoše, razdražiše me ništavilima svojim, i ja ću njih ljubomornim učinit', pukom ništavnim, razdražit ću ih glupim nekim narodom!
They have moved me to jealousy with that which is not God. They have provoked me to anger with their vanities, and I will move them to jealousy with a non-nation. I will provoke them to anger with a foolish nation.
22 Da, moga gnjeva požar je usplamtio i gorjet će do dubina šeolskih; proždrijet će zemlju i sve što ona rađa, sažeći joj brda do temelja. (Sheol h7585)
For a fire is kindled in my anger, and burns to the lowest Sheol, and devours the earth with its increase, and sets on fire the foundations of the mountains. (Sheol h7585)
23 Nevolje na njih ću svaliti, na njih ću svoje istrošiti strijele.
I will heap evils upon them. I will spend my arrows upon them,
24 Od gladi će umirati, ognjica i pošast njih će trovati. Poslat ću na njih zub zvjerinji i otrov zmija što prahom gmižu.
to be wasted with hunger, and devoured with burning heat and bitter destruction. And I will send upon them the teeth of beasts, with the poison of crawling things of the dust.
25 Vani će mač zatirati djecu, a strava će vladati unutra. Ginut će jednako momak i djevojka, dojenče i starac sjedokos.
Outside the sword shall bereave, and in the chambers terror, to both young man and virgin, the suckling with the man of gray hairs.
26 Rekoh: U prah ću ih smrviti, zbrisati im spomen izmed ljudi.
I said, I would scatter them afar, I would make the remembrance of them to cease from among men,
27 Ali se bojah ruga dušmanskoga: mogli bi im prevarit' se protivnici, pa da kažu: 'Pobjeda je naša, nije to Jahvina izvela ruka.'
were it not that I feared the provocation of the enemy, lest their adversaries should judge amiss, lest they should say, Our hand is exalted, and Jehovah has not done all this.
28 Jer narod je to neupućen, oštroumlja u njih nema.
For they are a nation void of counsel, and there is no understanding in them.
29 Da su mudri, već bi se i dosjetili, razabrali što ih očekuje.
Oh that they were wise, that they understood this, that they would consider their latter end!
30 Kako da jedan tisuću u bijeg nagna, i deset tisuća da dvojica gone, da ih Stijena njina nije prodala, da ih Jahve nije izručio?
How should one chase a thousand, and two put ten thousand to flight unless their Rock had sold them, and Jehovah had delivered them up?
31 Al' stijena im nije poput naše Stijene; osuđeni su naši neprijatelji.
For their rock is not as our Rock, even our enemies themselves being judges.
32 Jer trs je njihov od sodomskog trsa i od vinograda gomorskih; grožđe im je grožđe otrovno, grozdovi im grozdovi gorčine;
For their vine is of the vine of Sodom, and of the fields of Gomorrah. Their grapes are grapes of gall, their clusters are bitter.
33 njihovo je vino otrov zmijski, žestok jed otrovnice ljute.
Their wine is the poison of serpents, and the cruel venom of asps.
34 Al' nije li on u mene poput dragulja, zapečaćen u mojim riznicama?
Is not this laid up in store with me, sealed up among my treasures?
35 Moja je odmazda i nagrada u vrijeme kad im noga posrne. Jer blizu je dan njihove propasti, udes njihov brzo im se bliži!
Vengeance is for me, and recompense at the time when their foot shall slide. For the day of their calamity is at hand, and the things that are to come upon them shall make haste.
36 (Pravdu će Jahve dati svome puku, sažalit se nad slugama svojim.) Vidjet će da im gine snaga, da je i robu i slobodnu kraj.
For Jehovah will judge his people, and regrets for his servants, when he sees that their power is gone, and there is none remaining, shut up or left at large.
37 Tad će reći: 'Ta gdje su bozi njihovi, gdje stijena kojom se zaklanjahu?
And he will say, Where are their gods, the rock in which they took refuge,
38 Oni što su jeli salo njihovih klanica i pili vino njihovih ljevanica?' Neka se dignu i neka vam pomognu, nek' vam budu zaklonište!
which ate the fat of their sacrifices, and drank the wine of their drink offering? Let them rise up and help you, let them be your protection.
39 Vidite sada da ja, ja jesam, i da drugog Boga pored mene nema! Ja usmrćujem i oživljujem; ja udaram i iscjeljujem (i nitko se iz ruke moje ne izbavlja).
See now that I, even I, am he, and there is no god with me. I kill, and I make alive. I wound, and I heal. And there is none that can deliver out of my hand.
40 Da, svoju ruku ja dižem prema nebu i kažem: Ne bio ja živ vječito
For I lift up my hand to heaven, and say, As I live forever,
41 ako naoštrivši mač svoj blistavi ne uzmem sud u svoje ruke da svojim odmazdim dušmanima, da naplatim onima koji mene mrze.
if I whet my glittering sword, and my hand takes hold on judgment, I will render vengeance to my adversaries, and will recompense those who hate me.
42 Strijele svoje opojit ću krvlju i mač moj najest će se mesa, krvi ubijenih i zarobljenih, glava dušmanskih vrhovnika.
I will make my arrows drunk with blood, and my sword shall devour flesh, with the blood of the slain and the captives, from the head of the leaders of the enemy.
43 Kličite, o nebesa, s njime, obožavajte ga, sinovi Božji! Kličite, puci, s njegovim narodom, uznosite snagu njegovu, poslanici Jahvini. Jer će krv slugu svojih osvetiti, istom mjerom vratit' dušmanima, naplatit će od onih koji njega mrze, očistit' od grijeha zemlju svog naroda.”
Rejoice, O ye Gentiles, with his people. For he will avenge the blood of his servants, and will render vengeance to his adversaries, and will recompense those who hate him, and will make expiation for his land, for his people.
44 Dođe Mojsije s Jošuom, sinom Nunovim, te izgovori u uši naroda riječi ove pjesme.
And Moses came and spoke all the words of this song in the ears of the people, he and Joshua the son of Nun.
45 Kad Mojsije izgovori sve ove riječi svemu Izraelu,
And Moses made an end of speaking all these words to all Israel.
46 reče im: “U srca svoja usadite sve riječi koje danas uzimam za svjedoka protiv vas; naredite sinovima svojim da ih drže vršeći sve riječi ovoga Zakona.
And he said to them, Set your heart to all the words which I testify to you this day, which ye shall command your sons to observe to do, even all the words of this law.
47 TÓa nije to za vas prazna riječ jer ona je vaš život. Zbog ove riječi živjet ćete dugo na zemlji koju ćete, prešavši Jordan, zaposjesti.”
For it is no vain thing for you, because it is your life, and through this thing ye shall prolong your days in the land where ye go over the Jordan to possess it.
48 Toga istog dana Jahve reče Mojsiju:
And Jehovah spoke to Moses that selfsame day, saying,
49 “Popni se na goru Nebo u Abarskom gorju - ono je u moapskoj zemlji nasuprot Jerihonu - pa pogledaj zemlju kanaansku što ću je dati u posjed Izraelcima.
Get thee up onto this mountain of Abarim, to mount Nebo, which is in the land of Moab, that is opposite Jericho, and behold the land of Canaan, which I give to the sons of Israel for a possession.
50 Onda umri na gori na koju se uspneš i pridruži se svojim precima kao što je i tvoj brat Aron, koji je umro na brdu Horu, bio pridružen svojima.
And die on the mount where thou go up, and be gathered to thy people, as Aaron thy brother died in mount Hor, and was gathered to his people,
51 A to zato što ste mi se iznevjerili sred Izraelaca kod Meriba Kadeša, kod voda u pustinji Sinu: niste očitovali moju svetost među Izraelcima.
because ye trespassed against me in the midst of the sons of Israel at the waters of Meribah of Kadesh, in the wilderness of Zin, because ye did not sanctify me in the midst of the sons of Israel.
52 Zato ćeš samo izdaleka vidjeti onu zemlju, ali u nju nećeš ući - u zemlju koju dajem Izraelcima.”
For thou shall see the land before thee, but thou shall not go there into the land which I give the sons of Israel.
