Numbers 13
1 And the LORD said to Moses,
Gospod je spregovoril Mojzesu, rekoč:
2 “Send out for yourself men to spy out the land of Canaan, which I am giving to the Israelites. From each of their fathers’ tribes send one man who is a leader among them.”
»Pošlji može, da bodo lahko preiskali kánaansko deželo, ki jo dajem Izraelovim otrokom. Iz vsakega rodu njihovih očetov boste poslali človeka, vsakega, ki je voditelj med njimi.«
3 So at the consent of the LORD, Moses sent them out from the Wilderness of Paran. All the men were leaders of the Israelites,
Mojzes jih je po Gospodovi zapovedi poslal iz Paránske divjine; vsi tisti možje so bili poglavarji Izraelovih otrok.
4 and these were their names: From the tribe of Reuben, Shammua son of Zaccur;
To so bila njihova imena: iz Rubenovega rodu Zahúrjev sin Šamúa,
5 from the tribe of Simeon, Shaphat son of Hori;
iz Simeonovega rodu Horíjev sin Šafát,
6 from the tribe of Judah, Caleb son of Jephunneh;
iz Judovega rodu Jefunéjev sin Kaléb,
7 from the tribe of Issachar, Igal son of Joseph;
iz Isahárjevega rodu Jožefov sin Jigál,
8 from the tribe of Ephraim, Hoshea son of Nun;
iz Efrájimovega rodu Nunov sin Hošéa,
9 from the tribe of Benjamin, Palti son of Raphu;
iz Benjaminovega rodu Rafújev sin Paltí,
10 from the tribe of Zebulun, Gaddiel son of Sodi;
iz Zábulonovega rodu Sodijev sin Gadiél,
11 from the tribe of Manasseh (a tribe of Joseph), Gaddi son of Susi;
iz Jožefovega rodu, namreč iz Manásejevega rodu Susíjev sin Gadí,
12 from the tribe of Dan, Ammiel son of Gemalli;
iz Danovega rodu Gemalíjev sin Amiél,
13 from the tribe of Asher, Sethur son of Michael;
iz Aserjevega rodu Mihaelov sin Setúr,
14 from the tribe of Naphtali, Nahbi son of Vophsi;
iz Neftálijevega rodu Vofsíjev sin Nahbí,
15 and from the tribe of Gad, Geuel son of Machi.
iz Gadovega rodu Mahíjev sin Geuél,
16 These were the names of the men Moses sent to spy out the land; and Moses gave to Hoshea son of Nun the name Joshua.
To so imena mož, ki jih je Mojzes poslal, da ogledajo deželo. Mojzes je Nunovega sina Hošéa imenoval Ješua.
17 When Moses sent them to spy out the land of Canaan, he told them, “Go up through the Negev and into the hill country.
Mojzes jih je poslal, da ogledajo kánaansko deželo in jim rekel: »Pojdite gor po tej poti proti jugu in pojdite gor na goro.
18 See what the land is like and whether its people are strong or weak, few or many.
Oglejte si deželo, kakšna je in ljudstvo, ki prebiva v njej, če so močni ali šibki, maloštevilni ali številni,
19 Is the land where they live good or bad? Are the cities where they dwell open camps or fortifications?
in kakšna je dežela, ki v njej prebivajo, bodisi je ta dobra ali slaba, in kakšna mesta so, ki v njih prebivajo, ali so v šotorih ali v oporiščih,
20 Is the soil fertile or unproductive? Are there trees in it or not? Be courageous, and bring back some of the fruit of the land.” (It was the season for the first ripe grapes.)
in kakšna je dežela, ali je ta obilna ali revna, ali je tam les ali ne. In bodite odločnega poguma in prinesite sad dežele.« Torej bil je čas prvih sadov grozdja.
21 So they went up and spied out the land from the Wilderness of Zin as far as Rehob, toward Lebo-hamath.
Tako so odšli gor in preiskali deželo od Cinske divjine do Rehóba, kakor ljudje pridejo do Hamáta.
22 They went up through the Negev and came to Hebron, where Ahiman, Sheshai, and Talmai, the descendants of Anak, dwelled. It had been built seven years before Zoan in Egypt.
Povzpeli so se pri jugu in prišli do Hebróna, kjer so bili Ahimán, Šešáj in Talmáj, Anákovi otroci. (Torej Hebrón je bil zgrajen sedem let pred Coanom v Egiptu.)
23 When they came to the Valley of Eshcol, they cut down a branch with a single cluster of grapes, which they carried on a pole between two men. They also took some pomegranates and figs.
Prišli so k Eškólskemu potoku in od tam odrezali vejo z enim šopom grozdja in nosili so jo med dvema na palici in prinesli so od granatovcev in od fig.
24 Because of the cluster of grapes the Israelites cut there, that place was called the Valley of Eshcol.
Kraj je bil imenovan potok Eškól zaradi šopa grozdja, ki so ga Izraelovi otroci odrezali od tam.
25 After forty days the men returned from spying out the land,
In po štiridesetih dneh so se vrnili iz preiskovanja dežele.
26 and they went back to Moses, Aaron, and the whole congregation of Israel in the Wilderness of Paran at Kadesh. They brought back a report for the whole congregation and showed them the fruit of the land.
Šli so in prišli k Mojzesu in Aronu in k vsej skupnosti Izraelovih otrok v Paránsko divjino, do Kadeša in jima nazaj prinesli besedo in vsej skupnosti in jim pokazali sad dežele.
27 And they gave this account to Moses: “We went into the land to which you sent us, and indeed, it is flowing with milk and honey. Here is some of its fruit!
Povedali so mu in rekli: »Prišli smo do dežele, kamor nas pošiljaš in ta zagotovo teče z mlekom in medom, in to je njen sad.
28 Nevertheless, the people living in the land are strong, and the cities are large and fortified. We even saw the descendants of Anak there.
Vendar je ljudstvo, ki prebiva v deželi močno in mesta so obzidana in zelo velika in poleg tega smo tam videli Anákove otroke.
29 The Amalekites live in the land of the Negev; the Hittites, Jebusites, and Amorites live in the hill country; and the Canaanites live by the sea and along the Jordan.”
Amalečani prebivajo v južni deželi; Hetejci, Jebusejci in Amoréjci prebivajo v gorah, Kánaanci pa prebivajo poleg morja in ob jordanski pokrajini.«
30 Then Caleb quieted the people before Moses and said, “We must go up and take possession of the land, for we can certainly conquer it!”
Kaléb je ljudstvo pomiril pred Mojzesom in rekel: »Brž pojdimo gor in jo zavzemimo, kajti zelo smo sposobni, da jo premagamo.«
31 But the men who had gone up with him replied, “We cannot go up against the people, for they are stronger than we are!”
Toda možje, ki so odšli z njim, so rekli: »Mi nismo zmožni oditi gor zoper ljudstvo, kajti oni so močnejši od nas.«
32 So they gave the Israelites a bad report about the land that they had spied out: “The land we explored devours its inhabitants, and all the people we saw there are great in stature.
Izraelovim otrokom so prinesli zlo poročilo o deželi, ki so jo preiskali, rekoč: »Dežela, skozi katero smo šli, da jo preiščemo, je dežela, ki požira svoje prebivalce. Vse ljudstvo, ki smo ga videli v njej, so možje velike postave.
33 We even saw the Nephilim there—the descendants of Anak that come from the Nephilim! We seemed like grasshoppers in our own sight, and we must have seemed the same to them!”
Tam smo videli velikane, Anákove sinove, ki so izšli iz velikanov in v svojih očeh smo bili kakor kobilice in takšni smo bili v njihovem pogledu.«
