< Joshua 17 >

1 This was the lot for the tribe of Manasseh, for he was the firstborn of Joseph. As for Machir the firstborn of Manasseh, the father of Gilead, because he was a man of war, therefore he had Gilead and Bashan.
Tam je bil tudi žreb za Manásejev rod, kajti on je bil Jožefov prvorojenec. Namreč zaradi Manásejevega prvorojenca Mahírja, Gileádovega očeta, ker je bil bojevnik, zato je imel Gileád in Bašán.
2 So this was for the rest of the children of Manasseh according to their families: for the children of Abiezer, for the children of Helek, for the children of Asriel, for the children of Shechem, for the children of Hepher, and for the children of Shemida. These were the male children of Manasseh the son of Joseph according to their families.
Tam je bil tudi žreb za preostanek Manásejevih otrok po njihovih družinah za otroke Abiézerja in za otroke Heleka in za otroke Asriéla in za otroke Sihema in za otroke Heferja in za otroke Šemidája. To so bili dečki Manáseja, Jožefovega sina po njihovih družinah.
3 But Zelophehad, the son of Hepher, the son of Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, had no sons, but daughters. These are the names of his daughters: Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah.
Toda Celofhád, sin Heferja, sin Gileáda, sin Mahírja, sin Manáseja, ni imel sinov, temveč hčere. To so imena njegovih hčera: Mahla, Noa, Hogla, Milka in Tirca.
4 They came to Eleazar the priest, and to Joshua the son of Nun, and to the princes, saying, “The LORD commanded Moses to give us an inheritance among our brothers.” Therefore according to the commandment of the LORD he gave them an inheritance among the brothers of their father.
Prišle so blizu, pred duhovnika Eleazarja in pred Nunovega sina Józueta in pred prince, rekoč: » Gospod je zapovedal Mojzesu, da nam daste dediščino med našimi brati.« Zato jim je glede na Gospodovo zapoved dal dediščino med brati njihovega očeta.
5 Ten parts fell to Manasseh, in addition to the land of Gilead and Bashan, which is beyond the Jordan;
Tam je padlo deset deležev Manáseju, poleg gileádske in bašánske dežele, ki sta bili na drugi strani Jordana,
6 because the daughters of Manasseh had an inheritance among his sons. The land of Gilead belonged to the rest of the sons of Manasseh.
kajti Manásejeve hčere so imele dediščino med njegovimi sinovi. Preostanek Manásejevih sinov pa je imel deželo Gileád.
7 The border of Manasseh was from Asher to Michmethath, which is before Shechem. The border went along to the right hand, to the inhabitants of En Tappuah.
Manásejeva pokrajina je bila od Aserja do Mihmetáta, ki leži pred Sihemom. Meja je potekala vzdolž desne roke do prebivalcev En Tapúaha.
8 The land of Tappuah belonged to Manasseh; but Tappuah on the border of Manasseh belonged to the children of Ephraim.
Torej Manáse je imel deželo Tapúah, toda Tapúah na Manásejevi meji je pripadal Efrájimovim otrokom
9 The border went down to the brook of Kanah, southward of the brook. These cities belonged to Ephraim among the cities of Manasseh. The border of Manasseh was on the north side of the brook, and ended at the sea.
in pokrajina se je spustila k reki Kano, južno od reke; ta Efrájimova mesta so med Manásejevimi mesti. Tudi Manásejeve pokrajine so bile na severni strani reke in njihovi izhodi so bili pri morju.
10 Southward it was Ephraim’s, and northward it was Manasseh’s, and the sea was his border. They reached to Asher on the north, and to Issachar on the east.
Proti jugu je bilo Efrájimovo in proti severu je bilo Manásejevo in morje je njegova meja in na severu sta se srečala v Aserju in na vzhodu v Isahárju.
11 Manasseh had three heights in Issachar, in Asher Beth Shean and its towns, and Ibleam and its towns, and the inhabitants of Dor and its towns, and the inhabitants of Endor and its towns, and the inhabitants of Taanach and its towns, and the inhabitants of Megiddo and its towns.
Manáse je imel v Isahárju in v Aserju Bet Šeán in njegova mesta, Jibleám in njegova mesta, prebivalce Dora in njegova mesta, prebivalce En Dora in njegova mesta, prebivalce Taanáha in njegova mesta in prebivalce Megída ter njegova mesta, torej tri dežele.
12 Yet the children of Manasseh could not drive out the inhabitants of those cities; but the Canaanites would dwell in that land.
Vendar Manásejevi otroci niso mogli napoditi prebivalcev teh mest, temveč so v tej deželi hoteli prebivati Kánaanci.
13 When the children of Israel had grown strong, they put the Canaanites to forced labor, and did not utterly drive them out.
Vendar se je pripetilo, ko so Izraelovi otroci postali močni, da so Kánaance podvrgli davku, toda niso jih popolnoma pognali ven.
14 The children of Joseph spoke to Joshua, saying, “Why have you given me just one lot and one part for an inheritance, since we are a numerous people, because the LORD has blessed us so far?”
Jožefovi otroci so spregovorili Józuetu, rekoč: »Zakaj si mi dal, da podedujem samo en žreb in en delež, glede na to, da sem veliko ljudstvo, ker me je Gospod doslej blagoslavljal?«
15 Joshua said to them, “If you are a numerous people, go up to the forest, and clear land for yourself there in the land of the Perizzites and of the Rephaim, since the hill country of Ephraim is too narrow for you.”
Józue jim je odgovoril: »Če si veliko ljudstvo, potem se dvigni v gozdnato deželo in tam posekaj zase, v deželi Perizéjcev in velikanov, če je gora Efrájim zate preozka.«
16 The children of Joseph said, “The hill country is not enough for us. All the Canaanites who dwell in the land of the valley have chariots of iron, both those who are in Beth Shean and its towns, and those who are in the valley of Jezreel.”
Jožefovi otroci so rekli: »Hrib ni dovolj za nas in vsi Kánaanci, ki prebivajo v dolinski deželi, imajo vozove iz železa, tako tisti, ki so iz Bet Šeána in njegovih mest in tisti, ki so iz doline Jezreél.«
17 Joshua spoke to the house of Joseph, that is, to Ephraim and to Manasseh, saying, “You are a numerous people, and have great power. You shall not have one lot only;
Józue je spregovoril Jožefovi hiši, torej Efrájimu in Manáseju, rekoč: »Ti si veliko ljudstvo in imaš veliko moč. Ne boš imel samo enega deleža.
18 but the hill country shall be yours. Although it is a forest, you shall cut it down, and it’s farthest extent shall be yours; for you shall drive out the Canaanites, though they have chariots of iron, and though they are strong.”
Toda gora bo tvoja, kajti to je les in ti ga boš posekal in dohodek od tega bo tvoj, kajti napodil boš Kánaance, čeprav imajo železne vozove in čeprav so močni.«
