Jošua 1
1 Poslije smrti Mojsija, sluge Jahvina, reče Jahve Jošui, sinu Nunovu, pomoćniku Mojsijevu:
Nowe after the death of Moses the seruant of the Lord, the Lord spake vnto Ioshua the sonne of Nun, Moses minister, saying,
2 “Moj je sluga Mojsije umro; zato sada ustani, prijeđi preko toga Jordana, ti i sav taj narod, u zemlju koju dajem sinovima Izraelovim.
Moses my seruant is dead: nowe therefore arise, go ouer this Iorden, thou, and all this people, vnto the lande which I giue them, that is, to ye children of Israel.
3 Svako mjesto na koje stupi vaša noga dajem vam, kao što obećah Mojsiju.
Euery place that the sole of your foote shall treade vpon, haue I giuen you, as I said vnto Moses.
4 Od pustinje i od Libanona pa do Velike rijeke, rijeke Eufrata, i sve do Velikog mora na sunčanom zapadu - sve će to biti vaše područje.
From the wildernesse and this Lebanon euen vnto the great riuer, the riuer Perath: all the land of the Hittites, euen vnto the great Sea towarde the going downe of the sunne, shalbe your coast.
5 Nitko neće odoljeti pred tobom u sve dane tvog života; ja ću biti s tobom, kao što sam bio s Mojsijem, i nikada te neću napustiti niti ću te ostaviti.
There shall not a man be able to withstande thee all the dayes of thy life: as I was with Moses, so will I be with thee: I will not leaue thee, nor forsake thee.
6 Budi odvažan i hrabar jer ćeš ti uvesti narod ovaj da primi u baštinu zemlju za koju se zakleh ocima njihovim da ću im je dati.
Be strong and of a good courage: for vnto this people shalt thou deuide the lande for an inheritance, which I sware vnto their fathers to giue them.
7 Samo budi odvažan i hrabar da sve učiniš vjerno prema naredbama koje ti je dao Mojsije, sluga moj. Ne skreći od toga ni desno ni lijevo da bi ti bilo sretno sve što poduzmeš.
Onely be thou strong, and of a most valiant courage, that thou mayest obserue and doe according to all the Lawe which Moses my seruant hath commanded thee: thou shalt not turne away from it to the right hande, nor to the left, that thou mayest prosper whithersoeuer thou goest.
8 Neka knjiga Zakona bude na ustima tvojim: razmišljaj o njoj danju i noću, kako bi vjerno držao sve što je u njoj napisano: samo ćeš tada biti sretan i uspjet ćeš u pothvatima. Nisam li ti zapovjedio:
Let not this booke of the Law depart out of thy mouth, but meditate therin day and night, that thou mayest obserue and doe according to all that is written therein: for then shalt thou make thy way prosperous, and then shalt thou haue good successe.
9 odvaži se i budi hrabar? Ne boj se i ne strahuj, jer kuda god pođeš, s tobom je Jahve, Bog tvoj.”
Haue not I commanded thee, saying, Be strong and of a good courage, feare not, nor be discouraged? for I the Lord thy God will be with thee, whithersoeuer thou goest.
10 Tada zapovijedi Jošua glavarima narodnim:
Then Ioshua commanded the officers of the people, saying,
11 “Prođite kroz tabor i proglasite puku ovu zapovijed: 'Spremite sebi brašnenice jer ćete za tri dana prijeći preko Jordana da biste primili u posjed zemlju koju vam Jahve, Bog vaš, daje u baštinu.'”
Passe through the hoste, and commande the people, saying, Prepare you vitailes: for after three dayes ye shall passe ouer this Iorden, to goe in to possesse the lande, which the Lord your God giueth you to possesse it.
12 Zatim reče Jošua plemenu Rubenovu i Gadovu i polovini plemena Manašeova:
And vnto the Reubenites, and to the Gadites, and to halfe the tribe of Manasseh spake Ioshua, saying,
13 “Sjetite se onoga što vam je zapovjedio Mojsije, sluga Jahvin, kada vam je rekao: 'Jahve, Bog vaš, hoće da počinete i daje vam ovu zemlju.
Remember the worde, which Moses the seruant of the Lord commanded you, saying, The Lord your God hath giuen you rest, and hath giuen you this land.
14 Vaše žene, djeca i stada mogu ostati u zemlji koju vam je dao Mojsije s onu stranu Jordana. Vi pak ratnici, za boj spremni, morate naoružani poći pred svojom braćom da im pomognete,
Your wiues, your children, and your cattell shall remaine in the land which Moses gaue you on this side Iorden: but ye shall goe ouer before your brethren armed, all that be men of warre, and shall helpe them,
15 sve dok Jahve ne dade da počinu i vaša braća, kao i vi, i dok ne zaposjednu zemlju koju im daje Jahve, Bog vaš. Tada se možete vratiti u zemlju koja vam pripada i koju vam je dao Jahvin sluga Mojsije, na drugoj strani Jordana, prema istoku sunca.'”
Vntill the Lord haue giuen your brethren rest, as well as to you, and vntill they also shall possesse the land, which the Lord your God giueth them: then shall ye returne vnto the lande of your possession and shall possesse it, which land Moses the Lordes seruant gaue you on this side Iorden toward the sunne rising.
16 Oni odgovore Jošui: “Sve što nam zapovjediš, učinit ćemo, i kuda nas god pošalješ, poći ćemo.
Then they answered Ioshua, saying, Al that thou hast commanded vs, we will doe, and whithersoeuer thou sendest vs, we will goe.
17 Kao što smo slušali Mojsija, tako ćemo se pokoravati i tebi. Samo neka Jahve, Bog tvoj, bude s tobom kao što bijaše s Mojsijem!
As we obeyed Moses in all things, so will we obey thee: onely the Lord thy God be with thee, as he was with Moses.
18 Tko se god usprotivi tvome glasu i ne posluša tvojih riječi u svemu što mu zapovjediš neka bude pogubljen. Samo ti budi odvažan i hrabar!”
Whosoeuer shall rebell against thy commandement, and will not obey thy wordes in all that thou commaundest him, let him bee put to death: onely be strong and of good courage.
