< Joshua 22 >

1 In the same time, Joshua called the Reubenites, and the Gadites, and the one half tribe of Manasseh.
Tada sazva Isus sinove Ruvimove i sinove Gadove i polovinu plemena Manasijina,
2 And he said to them: “You have done all that Moses, the servant of the Lord, instructed you. You have also obeyed me in all things.
I reèe im: vi držaste sve što vam je zapovjedio Mojsije sluga Gospodnji, i slušaste glas moj u svemu što sam vam zapovijedao.
3 Neither have you forsaken your brothers during this long time, even to the present day, keeping the orders of the Lord your God.
Ne ostaviste braæe svoje dugo vremena, do ovoga dana, i dobro èuvaste zapovijest Gospoda Boga svojega.
4 Therefore, since the Lord your God has given your brothers peace and quiet, just as he promised: return, and go into your tents and into the land of your possession, which Moses, the servant of the Lord, delivered to you beyond the Jordan.
A sada Gospod je Bog vaš smirio braæu vašu, kako im je rekao; sada dakle vratite se i idite u šatore svoje u zemlju našljedstva svojega, koju vam je dao Mojsije sluga Gospodnji s onu stranu Jordana.
5 And may you continue to observe attentively, and to work to fulfill, the commandment and the law that Moses, the servant of the Lord, instructed to you, so that you may love the Lord your God, and walk in all his ways, and keep all his commandments, and cling to him, and serve him with all your heart and with all your soul.”
Samo pazite dobro da vršite zapovijest i zakon, što vam je zapovjedio Mojsije sluga Gospodnji, da ljubite Gospoda Boga svojega i da hodite svijem putovima njegovijem, i èuvate zapovijesti njegove i držite ih se, i da mu služite svijem srcem svojim i svom dušom svojom.
6 And Joshua blessed them, and he sent them away. And they returned to their tents.
I blagoslovi ih Isus, i otpusti ih da idu u svoje šatore.
7 Now to the one half tribe of Manasseh, Moses had given a possession in Bashan. And therefore, to the one half that was left over, Joshua gave a lot among the remainder of their brothers across the Jordan, in the western region. And when he had blessed them and dismissed them to their tents,
A polovini plemena Manasijina bješe dao Mojsije našljedstvo u Vasanu, a drugoj polovini dade Isus s braæom njihovom s ovu stranu Jordana k zapadu. I otpuštajuæi ih Isus u šatore njihove blagoslovi ih,
8 he said to them: “Return to your settlements with much substance and wealth, with silver and gold, brass and iron, and a multitude of garments. Divide the spoils of your enemies with your brothers.”
I reèe im govoreæi: s velikim blagom vraæate se u šatore svoje, sa stokom vrlo mnogom; sa srebrom i zlatom i mjeðu i gvožðem i odijelom vrlo mnogim; podijelite plijen od neprijatelja svojih s braæom svojom.
9 And the sons of Reuben, and the sons of Gad, and the one half tribe of Manasseh returned, and they went away from the sons of Israel at Shiloh, which is situated in Canaan, so that they might enter into Gilead, the land of their possession, which they had obtained according to the order of the Lord, by the hand of Moses.
I vrativši se sinovi Ruvimovi i sinovi Gadovi i polovina plemena Manasijina otidoše od sinova Izrailjevijeh iz Siloma, koji je u zemlji Hananskoj, iduæi u zemlju Galadsku, u zemlju našljedstva svojega, koju naslijediše, kako bješe Gospod zapovjedio preko Mojsija.
10 And when they had arrived at the hills of the Jordan in the land of Canaan, they built an altar of immense magnitude beside the Jordan.
A kad doðoše na meðu Jordansku u zemlji Hananskoj, naèiniše sinovi Ruvimovi i sinovi Gadovi i polovina plemena Manasijina oltar ondje na Jordanu, oltar velik i naoèit.
11 And when the sons of Israel had heard of it, and certain messengers had reported to them that the sons of Reuben, and of Gad, and of the one half tribe of Manasseh had built an altar in the land of Canaan, upon the hills of the Jordan, facing the sons of Israel,
I èuše sinovi Izrailjevi gdje se govori: gle, sinovi Ruvimovi i sinovi Gadovi i polovina plemena Manasijina naèiniše oltar prema zemlji Hananskoj na meði Jordanskoj, pokraj sinova Izrailjevijeh.
12 they all assembled at Shiloh, so that they might go up and battle against them.
A kad èuše sinovi Izrailjevi, skupi se sav zbor sinova Izrailjevijeh u Silom da idu da se biju s njima.
13 And in the interim, they sent to them, in the land of Gilead, Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the priest,
I poslaše sinovi Izrailjevi k sinovima Ruvimovijem i sinovima Gadovijem i polovini plemena Manasijina u zemlju Galadsku Finesa sina Eleazara sveštenika,
14 and ten leaders with him, one from each tribe.
I s njim deset knezova, po jednoga kneza od doma otaèkoga od svijeh plemena Izrailjevijeh, a svaki ih bješe poglavar u domu otaca svojih u tisuæama Izrailjevijem.
15 And they went to the sons of Reuben, and of Gad, and of the one half tribe of Manasseh, in the land of Gilead, and they said to them:
A oni doðoše k sinovima Ruvimovijem i sinovima Gadovijem i polovini plemena Manasijina u zemlju Galadsku, i rekoše im govoreæi:
16 “All the people of the Lord declare this: What is this transgression? Why have you forsaken the Lord, the God of Israel, by building a sacrilegious altar, and by withdrawing from the worship of him?
Ovako veli sav zbor Gospodnji: kakav je to grijeh kojim se ogriješiste Bogu Izrailjevu odvrativši se danas od Gospoda naèinivši oltar da se odmetnete danas od Gospoda?
17 Is it a small thing to you that you have sinned with Baal of Peor, and that the stain of that crime continues among us, even to the present day? And many of the people have fallen.
Malo li nam je grijeha Fegorova, od kojega se još nijesmo oèistili do danas i s kojega doðe pogibao na zbor Gospodnji,
18 And yet you have forsaken the Lord today, and tomorrow his wrath will rage against all of Israel.
Te se danas odvraæate od Gospoda, i odmeæete se danas od Gospoda, da se sjutra razgnjevi na sav zbor Izrailjev?
19 But if you consider the land of your possession to be unclean, cross over to the land in which is the tabernacle of the Lord, and live among us. But do not withdraw from the Lord, and from our fellowship, by building an altar contrary to the altar of the Lord our God.
Ako je zemlja našljedstva vašega neèista, prijeðite u zemlju našljedstva Gospodnjega, u kojoj stoji šator Gospodnji, i uzmite našljedstvo meðu nama; samo se ne odmeæite od Gospoda i ne odmeæite se od nas gradeæi sebi oltar mimo oltar Gospoda Boga našega.
20 Did not Achan, the son of Zerah, go against the commandment of the Lord, and so his wrath was laid over all the people of Israel? And he was only one man. If only he had perished in his wickedness alone!”
Nije li se Ahan sin Zarin ogriješio o stvari proklete, te doðe gnjev na sav zbor Izrailjev? i on ne pogibe sam za grijeh svoj.
21 And the sons of Reuben, and of Gad, and of the one half tribe of Manasseh responded to the leaders of the delegation from Israel:
A sinovi Ruvimovi i sinovi Gadovi i polovina plemena Manasijina odgovoriše i rekoše poglavarima tisuæa Izrailjevih:
22 “The Lord, the almighty God, the Lord, the almighty God, he knows, and also Israel will understand: If we have constructed this altar with intent of transgression, let him not preserve us, but instead punish us immediately.
Gospod Bog nad bogovima, Gospod Bog nad bogovima, on zna, i Izrailj neka zna. Ako smo radi odmetati se i griješiti Gospodu, neka nas ne saèuva danas.
23 And if we have acted with a mind so that we might present upon it holocausts, and sacrifice, and victims of peace offerings, let him inquire and judge.
Ako smo naèinili oltar da se odvratimo od Gospoda ili da prinosimo na njemu žrtve paljenice ili dare ili da prinosimo na njemu žrtve zahvalne, Gospod neka traži.
24 Instead, we have acted with this greater thought and design, that we would say: Tomorrow your sons will say to our sons: ‘What is there between you and the Lord, the God of Israel?
Nego to uèinismo bojeæi se ovoga: rekosmo: sjutra æe reæi sinovi vaši sinovima našim govoreæi: šta vi imate s Gospodom Bogom Izrailjevim?
25 The Lord has stationed the river Jordan as the border between us and you, O sons of Reuben, O sons of Gad. And therefore, you have no part in the Lord.’ And by this occasion, your sons would turn away our sons from the fear of the Lord. And so we sought something better,
Meðu je postavio Gospod izmeðu nas i vas, sinovi Ruvimovi i Gadovi, Jordan; vi nemate dijela u Gospoda. Te æe sinovi vaši odbiti sinove naše da se ne boje Gospoda.
26 and we said: Let us build us an altar, not for holocausts, and not to offer victims,
Zato rekosmo: uèinimo tako, i naèinimo oltar, ne za žrtvu paljenicu ni za drugu žrtvu,
27 but as a testimony between us and you, and between our descendants and your progeny, so that we may serve the Lord, and so that it may be our right to offer holocausts, and victims, and peace offerings, and so that tomorrow your sons may not say to our sons: ‘You have no part in the Lord.’
Nego da bude svjedok meðu nama i vama, i meðu natražjem našim nakon nas, da bismo služili Gospodu pred njim žrtvama svojim paljenicama i prinosima svojim, i žrtvama svojim zahvalnim, i da ne bi rekli kadgod sinovi vaši sinovima našim: vi nemate dijela u Gospoda.
28 And if they decide to say this, they shall respond to them: ‘Behold, the altar of the Lord, which our fathers made, not for holocausts, and not for sacrifice, but instead as a testimony between us and you.’
Jer rekosmo: ako kad reku tako nama ili natražju našemu, tada æemo im kazati: vidite sliku od oltara Gospodnjega koju naèiniše oci naši ne za žrtvu paljenicu ni za drugu žrtvu, nego da je svjedoèanstvo meðu nama i vama.
29 May this wickedness be far from us, such that we would withdraw from the Lord, and would forsake his paths, by constructing an altar to offer holocausts, and sacrifices, and victims, contrary to the altar of the Lord our God, which was built before his tabernacle.”
Ne daj Bože da se odmeæemo Gospodu i da se danas odvraæamo od Gospoda naèinivši oltar za žrtvu paljenicu, za dar ili za prinos, mimo oltar Gospoda Boga našega, koji je pred šatorom njegovijem.
30 And when Phinehas, the priest, and the leaders of the delegation who were with him, had heard this, they were pleased. And they accepted very willingly the words of the sons of Reuben, and of Gad, and of the one half tribe of Manasseh.
A kad èu Fines sveštenik i knezovi od zbora, poglavari od tisuæa Izrailjevih koji bijahu s njim, rijeèi koje im rekoše sinovi Ruvimovi i sinovi Gadovi i sinovi Manasijini, bi im po volji.
31 And Phinehas, the priest, the son of Eleazar, said to them: “Now we know that the Lord is with us. For you are a stranger to this transgression. And so you have freed the sons of Israel from the hand of the Lord.”
I reèe Fines sin Eleazara sveštenika sinovima Ruvimovijem i sinovima Gadovijem i sinovima Manasijinim: danas poznasmo da je meðu nama Gospod kad se ne ogriješiste Gospodu tijem grijehom, i saèuvaste sinove Izrailjeve od ruku Gospodnjih.
32 And he returned with the leaders, from the sons of Reuben and of Gad, out of the land of Gilead, into the parts of Canaan, to the sons of Israel. And he reported to them.
I Fines sin Eleazara sveštenika i oni knezovi vratiše se od sinova Ruvimovijeh i od sinova Gadovijeh iz zemlje Galadske u zemlju Hanansku k sinovima Izrailjevijem, i javiše im stvar.
33 And the word pleased all who heard it. And the sons of Israel praised God, and they no longer said that they would go up against them, and fight, and destroy the land of their possession.
I bi po volji sinovima Izrailjevijem; i hvališe Boga sinovi Izrailjevi, i ne govoriše više da idu da se biju s njima da potru zemlju, u kojoj žive sinovi Ruvimovi i sinovi Gadovi.
34 And the sons of Reuben and the sons of Gad called the altar that they had built: Our testimony that the Lord himself is God.
I prozvaše sinovi Ruvimovi i sinovi Gadovi onaj oltar Ed govoreæi: svjedok je meðu nama da je Gospod Bog.
