Brojevi 31
1 Jahve reče Mojsiju:
And the LORD said to Moses,
2 “Iskali osvetu Izraelaca na Midjancima, a poslije toga pridružit ćeš se svojim precima.”
“Take vengeance on the Midianites for the Israelites. After that, you will be gathered to your people.”
3 A Mojsije reče narodu: “Opremite ljude između sebe za pohod na Midjance,
So Moses told the people, “Arm some of your men for war, that they may go against the Midianites and execute the LORD’s vengeance on them.
4 da na Midjancima izvrše Jahvinu osvetu. Na vojnu opremite po jednu tisuću od svakoga izraelskog plemena!”
Send into battle a thousand men from each tribe of Israel.”
5 I tako su iz izraelskih porodica - tisuću po plemenu - za vojnu skupili dvanaest tisuća.
So a thousand men were recruited from each tribe of Israel—twelve thousand armed for war.
6 Posla ih Mojsije - tisuću po plemenu - na vojnu zajedno s Pinhasom, sinom svećenika Eleazara. On je nosio posvećene stvari i trube.
And Moses sent the thousand from each tribe into battle, along with Phinehas son of Eleazar the priest, who took with him the vessels of the sanctuary and the trumpets for signaling.
7 Oni zavojuju na Midjance, kako je Jahve naredio Mojsiju, i pobiju sve muškarce.
Then they waged war against Midian, as the LORD had commanded Moses, and they killed every male.
8 Među ostalima pobili su i midjanske kraljeve: Evija, Rekema, Sura, Hura i Rebu - pet midjanskih kraljeva. Mačem pogube i Bileama, Beorova sina.
Among the slain were Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur, and Reba—the five kings of Midian. They also killed Balaam son of Beor with the sword.
9 Odvedu tada Izraelci u ropstvo midjanske žene s njihovom djecom i svu njihovu stoku, krupnu i sitnu, i zaplijene sve njihovo blago.
The Israelites captured the Midianite women and their children, and they plundered all their herds, flocks, and goods.
10 Ognjem spale sve gradove njihove u kojima se živjeli i sva njihova naselja,
Then they burned all the cities where the Midianites had lived, as well as all their encampments,
11 a sve njihovo uzmu za plijen i pljačku, i ljude i životinje.
and carried away all the plunder and spoils, both people and animals.
12 Onda u tabor na Moapskim poljanama uz Jordan, nasuprot Jerihonu, dovedu Mojsiju, svećeniku Eleazaru i svoj izraelskoj zajednici zarobljenike, plijen i pljačku.
They brought the captives, spoils, and plunder to Moses, to Eleazar the priest, and to the congregation of Israel at the camp on the plains of Moab, by the Jordan across from Jericho.
13 Mojsije, svećenik Eleazar i svi glavari zajednice izađu im u susret izvan tabora.
And Moses, Eleazar the priest, and all the leaders of the congregation went to meet them outside the camp.
14 Mojsije se razljuti na zapovjednike vojske, tisućnike i satnike, koji se bijahu vratili s toga bojnog pohoda.
But Moses was angry with the officers of the army—the commanders of thousands and commanders of hundreds—who were returning from the battle.
15 Reče im: “Što! Na životu ste ostavili sve ženskinje!
“Have you spared all the women?” he asked them.
16 A baš su žene, po nagovoru Bileamovu, zavele Izraelce da u Peorovu slučaju istupe protiv Jahve. Tako dođe pomor na Jahvinu zajednicu.
“Look, these women caused the sons of Israel, through the counsel of Balaam, to turn unfaithfully against the LORD at Peor, so that the plague struck the congregation of the LORD.
17 Stoga svu mušku djecu pobijte! A ubijte i svaku ženu koja je poznala muškarca!
So now, kill all the boys, as well as every woman who has had relations with a man,
18 A sve mlade djevojke koje nisu poznale muškarca ostavite na životu za se.
but spare for yourselves every girl who has never had relations with a man.
19 Vi pak proboravite izvan tabora sedam dana; svi vi koji ste koga ubili i koji ste se ubijenoga dotakli. Čistite se i vi i vaši zarobljenici trećega i sedmoga dana;
All of you who have killed a person or touched the dead are to remain outside the camp for seven days. On the third day and the seventh day you are to purify both yourselves and your captives.
20 očistite svu odjeću, sve mješine, sve od kostrijeti napravljeno i sve drvene predmete.”
And purify every garment and leather good, everything made of goat’s hair, and every article of wood.”
21 Zatim svećenik Eleazar progovori borcima koji su se vratili iz boja: “Ovo je odredba koju je izdao Jahve Mojsiju:
Then Eleazar the priest said to the soldiers who had gone into battle, “This is the statute of the law which the LORD has commanded Moses:
22 'Zlato, srebro, bakar, gvožđe, mjed i olovo -
Only the gold, silver, bronze, iron, tin, and lead—
23 sve što podnosi vatru - provucite kroz vatru i bit će očišćeno.' Ipak, neka se očisti i vodom očišćenja. A sve što ne podnosi vatru provucite kroz vodu.
everything that can withstand the fire—must be put through the fire, and it will be clean. But it must still be purified with the water of purification. And everything that cannot withstand the fire must pass through the water.
24 Sedmoga dana operite svoju odjeću i bit ćete čisti. Poslije toga možete se vratiti u tabor.”
On the seventh day you are to wash your clothes, and you will be clean. After that you may enter the camp.”
25 Jahve reče Mojsiju:
The LORD said to Moses,
26 “Ti, svećenik Eleazar i obiteljske starješine zajednice napravite popis ratnoga plijena, ljudstva i stoke,
“You and Eleazar the priest and the family heads of the congregation are to take a count of what was captured, both of man and beast.
27 a onda ratni plijen podijeli napola: na borce koji su išli u borbu i na svu ostalu zajednicu.
Then divide the captives between the troops who went out to battle and the rest of the congregation.
28 Od boraca koji su išli u borbu ustavi ujam za Jahvu: jednu glavu od svakih pet stotina, bilo ljudi, bilo krupnog blaga, magaradi ili sitne stoke.
Set aside a tribute for the LORD from what belongs to the soldiers who went into battle: one out of every five hundred, whether persons, cattle, donkeys, or sheep.
29 Uzmi to od njihove polovice i podaj svećeniku Eleazaru kao podizanicu za Jahvu.
Take it from their half and give it to Eleazar the priest as an offering to the LORD.
30 A od polovice što zapadne druge Izraelce uzmi po glavu od pedeset, bilo ljudi, bilo krupnog blaga, magaradi ili sitne stoke - od svih životinja - pa ih podaj levitima koji vode brigu o Jahvinu prebivalištu.”
From the Israelites’ half, take one out of every fifty, whether persons, cattle, donkeys, sheep, or other animals, and give them to the Levites who keep charge of the tabernacle of the LORD.”
31 Mojsije i svećenik Eleazar učine kako je Jahve naredio Mojsiju.
So Moses and Eleazar the priest did as the LORD had commanded Moses,
32 Ratnoga je plijena bilo, osim pljačke što su vojnici napljačkali: šest stotina sedamdeset i pet tisuća grla sitne stoke,
and this plunder remained from the spoils the soldiers had taken: 675,000 sheep,
33 sedamdeset i dvije tisuće grla krupne stoke,
72,000 cattle,
34 šezdeset i jedna tisuća magaradi,
61,000 donkeys,
35 a ljudskih duša - žena koje nisu poznale muškarca - bijaše u svemu trideset i dvije tisuće.
and 32,000 women who had not slept with a man.
36 Prema tome, polovica što je dodijeljena onima koji su išli u borbu bila je: tri stotine trideset i sedam tisuća i pet stotina grla sitne stoke;
This was the half portion for those who had gone to war: 337,500 sheep,
37 ujam za Jahvu od sitne stoke šest stotina sedamdeset i pet grla;
including a tribute to the LORD of 675,
38 krupne je stoke bilo trideset i šest tisuća grla, a njihov ujam za Jahvu sedamdeset i dva grla;
36,000 cattle, including a tribute to the LORD of 72,
39 magaradi je bilo trideset tisuća i pet stotina, a njihov ujam za Jahvu šezdeset i jedno.
30,500 donkeys, including a tribute to the LORD of 61,
40 Ljudskih je duša bilo šesnaest tisuća, a njihov ujam za Jahvu trideset i dvije osobe.
and 16,000 people, including a tribute to the LORD of 32.
41 Ujam predade Mojsije svećeniku Eleazaru za podizanicu Jahvi, kako je Jahve naredio Mojsiju.
Moses gave the tribute to Eleazar the priest as an offering for the LORD, as the LORD had commanded Moses.
42 A od polovice koja je zapala druge Izraelce i koju Mojsije odijeli od one što je pripala ljudima koji su se borili -
From the Israelites’ half, which Moses had set apart from the men who had gone to war,
43 dakle, polovica što je pripala zajednici iznosila je: trista trideset i sedam tisuća i pet stotina grla sitne stoke,
this half belonged to the congregation: 337,500 sheep,
44 a krupne stoke trideset i šest tisuća grla;
36,000 cattle,
45 magaradi trideset tisuća i pet stotina,
30,500 donkeys,
46 a ljudskih duša šesnaest tisuća.
and 16,000 people.
47 Tako, od polovice što je pripala Izraelcima Mojsije ostavi po jedno od pedeset, i od ljudstva i od stoke, te ih predade levitima koji su se brinuli o Jahvinu prebivalištu, kako je Jahve naredio Mojsiju.
From the Israelites’ half, Moses took one out of every fifty persons and animals and gave them to the Levites who kept charge of the tabernacle of the LORD, as the LORD had commanded him.
48 Onda pristupiše k Mojsiju vojnički zapovjednici, tisućnici i satnici,
Then the officers who were over the units of the army—the commanders of thousands and of hundreds—approached Moses
49 i rekoše mu: “Tvoje sluge prebrojile su borce što bijahu pod našim zapovjedništvom i od nas nitko nije izgubljen.
and said, “Your servants have counted the soldiers under our command, and not one of us is missing.
50 Uz to smo donijeli svoje darove Jahvi: narukvica, orukvica, prstenja, naušnica i ogrlica - na kakvu je tko zlatninu već naišao - da se nad nama obavi obred pomirenja pred Jahvom.”
So we have brought to the LORD an offering of the gold articles each man acquired—armlets, bracelets, rings, earrings, and necklaces—to make atonement for ourselves before the LORD.”
51 Mojsije i svećenik Eleazar prime od njih to zlato, to jest sve te izrađene predmete.
So Moses and Eleazar the priest received from them all the articles made out of gold.
52 Bilo je svega zlata što su kao svoju podizanicu Jahvi donijeli tisućnici i satnici: šesnaest tisuća sedam stotina i pedeset šekela.
All the gold that the commanders of thousands and of hundreds presented as an offering to the LORD weighed 16,750 shekels.
53 Svaki je vojnik za se zadržao svoj plijen.
Each of the soldiers had taken plunder for himself.
54 Tako Mojsije i svećenik Eleazar uzmu zlato od tisućnika i satnika te ga donesu u Šator sastanka na spomen Izraelcima pred Jahvom.
And Moses and Eleazar the priest received the gold from the commanders of thousands and of hundreds and brought it into the Tent of Meeting as a memorial for the Israelites before the LORD.
