Jošua 22
1 Tada sazove Jošua sinove Rubenove i Gadove i polovinu plemena Manašeova
Then Joshua calleth for the Reubenite, and for the Gadite, and for the half of the tribe of Manasseh,
2 i reče im: “Izvršili ste sve što vam je Mojsije, sluga Jahvin, zapovjedio i poslušali ste me u svemu što sam vam zapovjedio.
and saith unto them, 'Ye — ye have kept the whole of that which Moses, servant of Jehovah, commanded you, and ye hearken to my voice, to all that I have commanded you;
3 Niste ostavili svoje braće unatoč dugom vojevanju do današnjega dana i vršili ste vjerno zapovijedi Jahve, Boga svojega.
ye have not left your brethren these many days unto this day, and have kept the charge — the command of Jehovah your God.
4 Sada je Jahve, Bog vaš, dao mir braći vašoj, kako im bijaše obećao. Vratite se sada u svoje šatore, u zemlju koju vam je dao Mojsije, sluga Jahvin, u baštinu s onu stranu Jordana.
'And, now, Jehovah your God hath given rest to your brethren, as He spake to them; and now, turn ye, and go for yourselves to your tents, unto the land of your possession, which Moses, servant of Jehovah, hath given to you beyond the Jordan.
5 Samo pazite da vršite zapovijedi i Zakon što vam ga dade Mojsije, sluga Jahvin: da ljubite Jahvu, Boga svojega, da uvijek idete putovima njegovim, da čuvate zapovijedi njegove, da se držite uz njega i da mu služite svim srcem i svom dušom.”
Only, be very watchful to do the command and the law which Moses, servant of Jehovah, commanded you, to love Jehovah your God, and to walk in all His ways, and to keep His commands, and to cleave to Him, and to serve Him, with all your heart, and with all your soul.'
6 I blagoslovi ih Jošua i otpusti, a oni se zatim vrate u svoje šatore.
And Joshua blesseth them, and sendeth them away, and they go unto their tents.
7 Mojsije bijaše jednoj polovini plemena Manašeova dao baštinu u Bašanu; a drugoj polovini dade je Jošua usred njihove braće zapadno od Jordana. Otpuštajući ih u njihove šatore, Jošua ih blagoslovi.
And to the half of the tribe of Manasseh hath Moses given, in Bashan, and to its [other] half hath Joshua given with their brethren beyond the Jordan westward; and also when Joshua hath sent them away unto their tents, then he doth bless them,
8 I reče im: “Vratite se u svoje šatore s velikim blagom i s mnogom stokom, sa srebrom, zlatom, tučem, željezom i haljinama u izobilju i podijelite plijen od neprijatelja svojih s braćom svojom.”
and speak unto them, saying, 'With great riches turn ye back unto your tents, and with very much cattle, with silver, and with gold, and with brass, and with iron, and with very much raiment; divide the spoil of your enemies with your brethren.'
9 Vratiše se sinovi Rubenovi i sinovi Gadovi i polovina plemena Manašeova; odoše od sinova Izraelovih iz Šila u zemlji kanaanskoj da krenu u zemlju gileadsku, na svoju baštinu koju su zaposjeli, kako im je zapovjedio Jahve preko Mojsija.
And the sons of Reuben, and the sons of Gad, and the half of the tribe of Manasseh, turn back and go from the sons of Israel out of Shiloh, which [is] in the land of Canaan, to go unto the land of Gilead, unto the land of their possession, in which they have possession, according to the command of Jehovah, by the hand of Moses;
10 Kad su stigli do jordanskog područja u zemlji kanaanskoj, podigoše sinovi Rubenovi, sinovi Gadovi i polovina plemena Manašeova žrtvenik na Jordanu, žrtvenik velik, izdaleka se vidio.
and they come in unto the districts of the Jordan, which [are] in the land of Canaan, and the sons of Reuben, and the sons of Gad, and the half of the tribe of Manasseh, build there an altar by the Jordan — a great altar for appearance.
11 Čuli Izraelci gdje se govori: “Evo, sinovi Rubenovi, sinovi Gadovi i polovina plemena Manašeova podigoše žrtvenik prema zemlji kanaanskoj, kod Jordana, na izraelskoj strani.”
And the sons of Israel hear, saying, 'Lo, the sons of Reuben, and the sons of Gad, and the half of the tribe of Manasseh, have built the altar over-against the land of Canaan, on the districts of the Jordan, at the passage of the sons of Israel.'
12 Na to se skupi sva zajednica sinova Izraelovih u Šilu da pođu u boj na njih.
And the sons of Israel hear, and all the company of the sons of Israel is assembled at Shiloh, to go up against them to war;
13 Izraelci sinovima Rubenovim, sinovima Gadovim i polovini plemena Manašeova u gileadsku zemlju poslaše Pinhasa, sina svećenika Eleazara,
and the sons of Israel send unto the sons of Reuben, and unto the sons of Gad, and unto the half of the tribe of Manasseh — unto the land of Gilead — Phinehas son of Eleazar the priest,
14 i s njime deset knezova, po jednoga rodovskog glavara od svakoga plemena Izraelova, a svaki je od njih bio glavar obitelji među tisućama porodica Izraelovih.
and ten princes with him, one prince, one prince, for a house of a father, for all the tribes of Israel, and each of them a head of a house of their fathers, for the thousands of Israel.
15 I kad oni dođoše k sinovima Rubenovim, sinovima Gadovim i polovini plemena Manašeova u zemlju gileadsku, rekoše im:
And they come in unto the sons of Reuben, and unto the sons of Gad, and unto the half of the tribe of Manasseh, unto the land of Gilead, and speak with them, saying,
16 “Evo što veli sva zajednica Jahvina: 'Što znači nevjera koju činite protiv Jahve, Boga Izraelova? Zašto se odvrgoste danas od Jahve i, podigavši žrtvenik, zašto se bunite protiv Jahve?
'Thus said all the company of Jehovah, What [is] this trespass which ye have trespassed against the God of Israel, to turn back to-day from after Jehovah, by your building for you an altar, for your rebelling to-day against Jehovah?
17 Zar vam nije dosta zločina iz Peora, od kojega se nismo očistili do dana današnjega i zbog kojega je došao pomor na zajednicu Jahvinu?
Is the iniquity of Peor little to us, from which we have not been cleansed till this day — and the plague is in the company of Jehovah,
18 Ako se danas odvraćate od Jahve i bunite se danas protiv njega, neće li se sutra izliti njegov gnjev na svu zajednicu Izraelovu?
that ye turn back to-day from after Jehovah? and it hath been — ye rebel to-day against Jehovah — and to-morrow against all the company of Israel He is wroth.
19 Ili vam je možda zemlja vaše baštine nečista? Onda prijeđite u zemlju baštine Jahvine, u kojoj je Jahvino Prebivalište, i prebivajte među nama. Ali se ne bunite protiv Jahve i ne bunite se protiv nas dižući sebi žrtvenik mimo žrtvenik Jahve, Boga našega.
'And surely, if the land of your possession is unclean, pass over for you unto the land of the possession of Jehovah, where the tabernacle of Jehovah hath tabernacled, and have possession in our midst; and against Jehovah rebel not, and against us rebel not, by your building for you an altar, besides the altar of Jehovah our God.
20 Nije li se Akan, Zerahov sin, sam ogriješio o 'herem' te se oborila srdžba na svu zajednicu Izraelovu? Zar nije umro zbog krivice svoje?'”
Did not Achan son of Zerah commit a trespass in the devoted thing, and on all the company of Israel there was wrath? and he alone expired not in his iniquity.'
21 Tada odgovoriše sinovi Rubenovi, sinovi Gadovi i polovina plemena Manašeova govoreći plemenskim glavarima Izraelovim:
And the sons of Reuben, and the sons of Gad, and the half of the tribe of Manasseh, answer and speak with the heads of the thousands of Israel:
22 “Bog, Bog Jahve, Bog nad bogovima, Jahve zna i neka zna Izrael: ako je to bila pobuna ili nevjernost prema Jahvi, neka nam uskrati svoju pomoć danas;
'The God of gods — Jehovah, the God of gods — Jehovah, He is knowing, and Israel, he doth know, if in rebellion, and if in trespass against Jehovah (Thou dost not save us this day!)
23 ako smo podigli žrtvenik da se odvrgnemo od Jahve i da prinosimo žrtve paljenice, prinosnice i žrtve pričesnice, neka nam onda sudi Jahve!
[we are] building for ourselves an altar to turn back from after Jehovah, and if to cause to go up on it burnt-offering and present, and if to make on it peace-offerings — Jehovah Himself doth require [it].
24 Učinismo to od brige i skrbi i rekosmo: 'Jednoga će dana sinovi vaši reći našima: Što vam je zajedničko s Jahvom, Bogom Izraelovim?
'And if not, from fear of [this] thing we have done it, saying, Hereafter your sons do speak to ours sons, saying, What to you and to Jehovah God of Israel?
25 Zar nije, sinovi Rubenovi i sinovi Gadovi, postavio Jahve između vas i nas među našu - Jordan? Vi nemate dijela s Jahvom.' I tako bi sinovi vaši mogli učiniti da se sinovi naši odvrate te ne štuju Jahvu.
for a border hath Jehovah put between us and you, O sons of Reuben, and sons of Gad — Jordan; ye have no portion in Jehovah — and your sons have caused our sons to cease, not to fear Jehovah.
26 Zato smo rekli: 'Podignimo žrtvenik, ali ne za žrtve paljenice niti za klanice,
'And we say, Pray let us prepare for ourselves to build the altar — not for burnt-offering nor for sacrifice —
27 nego da bude svjedočanstvo između nas i vas, među potomcima našim, da želimo služiti Jahvi paljenicama, klanicama i pričesnicama. Tako da ne mognu jednom vaši sinovi reći našima: Nemate dijela s Jahvom.'
but a witness it [is] between us and you, and between our generations after us, to do the service of Jehovah before Him with our burnt-offerings, and with our sacrifices, and with our peace-offerings, and your sons do not say hereafter to our sons, Ye have no portion in Jehovah.
28 Ako bi kada tako rekli nama i potomcima našim, mogli bismo odgovoriti: 'Pogledajte slog žrtvenika Jahvina što su ga podigli oci naši ne za žrtve paljenice ni klanice, nego za svjedočanstvo između nas i vas.'
'And we say, And it hath been, when they say [so] unto us, and unto our generations hereafter, that we have said, See the pattern of the altar of Jehovah, which our fathers made — not for burnt-offering nor for sacrifice — but a witness it [is] between us and you.
29 Nije nam ni na kraj pameti pomisao da se bunimo protiv Jahve i da se odvraćamo od njega dižući žrtvenik za žrtve paljenice, prinosnice i klanice, mimo žrtvenik Jahve, Boga našega, koji je pred njegovim Prebivalištem!”
'Far be it from us to rebel against Jehovah, and to turn back to-day from after Jehovah, to build an altar for burnt-offering, for present, and for sacrifice, apart from the altar of Jehovah our God, which [is] before His tabernacle.'
30 Kad svećenik Pinhas, knezovi zbora i glavari izraelskih plemena koji su bili s njim čuše riječi koje im rekoše sinovi Gadovi, sinovi Rubenovi i sinovi Manašeovi, umiriše se.
And Phinehas the priest, and the princes of the company, and the heads of the thousands of Israel, who [are] with him, hear the words which the sons of Reuben, and the sons of Gad, and the sons of Manasseh have spoken, and it is good in their eyes.
31 Tada svećenik Pinhas, sin Eleazarov, odgovori sinovima Rubenovim, sinovima Gadovim i sinovima Manašeovim: “Spoznali smo sada da je Jahve među nama, jer mu se niste iznevjerili: tako ste sačuvali sinove Izraelove od kazne Jahvine.”
And Phinehas son of Eleazar the priest saith unto the sons of Reuben, and unto the sons of Gad, and unto the sons of Manasseh, 'To-day we have known that Jehovah [is] in our midst, because ye have not committed against Jehovah this trespass — then ye have delivered the sons of Israel out of the hand of Jehovah.'
32 Svećenik Pinhas, sin Eleazarov, i knezovi odoše od sinova Rubenovih i sinova Gadovih i vratiše se iz zemlje gileadske u kanaansku k sinovima Izraelovim i kazaše im odgovor.
And Phinehas son of Eleazar the priest, and the princes, turn back from the sons of Reuben, and from the sons of Gad, out of the land of Gilead, unto the land of Canaan, unto the sons of Israel, and bring them back word;
33 Izraelovim sinovima bijaše drag taj odgovor: hvalili su Boga i odustali su od nauma da udare na njih i da opustoše zemlju u kojoj su živjeli sinovi Rubenovi i sinovi Gadovi.
and the thing is good in the eyes of the sons of Israel, and the sons of Israel bless God, and have not said to go up against them to war, to destroy the land which the sons of Reuben, and the sons of Gad, are dwelling in.
34 Sinovi Rubenovi i sinovi Gadovi nazvali su žrtvenik “Ed” - “Svjedočanstvo”, jer rekoše: “To je svjedočanstvo među nama: Jahve je Bog.”
And the sons of Reuben and the sons of Gad proclaim concerning the altar, that 'it [is] a witness between us that Jehovah [is] God.'
