Joshua 1
1 And it came to pass after the death of Moses the servant of Jehovah, that Jehovah spoke to Joshua the son of Nun, Moses' attendant, saying,
Torej po smrti Mojzesa, Gospodovega služabnika, se je pripetilo, da je Gospod spregovoril Nunovemu sinu Józuetu, Mojzesovemu služabniku, rekoč:
2 Moses my servant is dead; and now, rise up, go over this Jordan, thou and all this people, into the land which I give unto them, to the children of Israel.
»Moj služabnik Mojzes je mrtev. Sedaj torej vstani, pojdi čez ta Jordan, ti in vse to ljudstvo, v deželo, ki jo dajem njim, torej Izraelovim otrokom.
3 Every place whereon the sole of your foot shall tread have I given to you, as I said unto Moses.
Vsak kraj, na katerega bo stopil podplat tvojega stopala, to sem ti dal, kakor sem rekel Mojzesu.
4 From the wilderness and this Lebanon to the great river, the river Euphrates, the whole land of the Hittites, to the great sea, toward the going down of the sun, shall be your border.
Od divjine in tega Libanona, celo do velike reke, reke Evfrat, vso deželo Hetejcev in do velikega morja proti zahajanju sonca, bo vaša pokrajina.
5 None shall be able to stand before thee all the days of thy life: as I was with Moses, so will I be with thee; I will not leave thee, neither will I forsake thee.
Tam noben mož ne bo zmožen obstati pred teboj vse dni tvojega življenja. Kakor sem bil z Mojzesom, tako bom s teboj. Ne bom te razočaral niti te ne bom zapustil.
6 Be strong and courageous, for thou shalt cause this people to inherit the land which I have sworn unto their fathers to give them.
Bodi močan in odločnega poguma, kajti temu ljudstvu boš v dediščino razdelil deželo, za katero sem prisegel njihovim očetom, da jim jo dam.
7 Only be strong and very courageous, that thou mayest take heed to do according to all the law that Moses my servant commanded thee. Turn not from it to the right or to the left, that thou mayest prosper whithersoever thou goest.
Samo močan bodi in zelo pogumen, da boš lahko obeležil, da storiš glede na vso postavo, ki ti jo je moj služabnik Mojzes zapovedal. Ne obrni se od nje ne k desni roki ne k levi, da boš lahko uspeval kamorkoli greš.
8 This book of the law shall not depart from thy mouth; and thou shalt meditate upon it day and night, that thou mayest take heed to do according to all that is written therein; for then shalt thou have good success in thy ways, and then shalt thou prosper.
Ta knjiga postave ne bo odšla od tvojih ust, temveč boš o njej premišljeval podnevi in ponoči, da boš lahko obeležil, da storiš glede na vse to, kar je zapisano v njej, kajti takrat boš naredil svojo pot uspešno in takrat boš imel dober uspeh.
9 Have I not commanded thee: Be strong and courageous? Be not afraid, neither be dismayed; for Jehovah thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest.
Mar ti nisem jaz zapovedal? Bodi močan in odločnega poguma. Ne bodi prestrašen niti ne bodi zaprepaden, kajti Gospod, tvoj Bog, je s teboj, kamorkoli greš.«
10 And Joshua commanded the officers of the people, saying,
Potem je Józue zapovedal častnikom ljudstva, rekoč:
11 Go through the midst of the camp, and command the people, saying, Prepare yourselves victuals, for in three days ye shall pass over this Jordan, that ye may enter in to take possession of the land which Jehovah your God giveth you to possess it.
»Preidite skozi vojsko in zapovejte ljudstvu, rekoč: ›Pripravite svoj živež, kajti v treh dneh boste šli preko tega Jordana, da vstopite, da vzamete v last deželo, ki vam jo daje Gospod, vaš Bog, da jo vzamete v last.‹«
12 And to the Reubenites and to the Gadites and to half the tribe of Manasseh spoke Joshua, saying,
Rubenovcem in Gádovcem in polovici Manásejevega rodu pa je Józue spregovoril, rekoč:
13 Remember the word that Moses the servant of Jehovah commanded you, saying, Jehovah your God has given you rest and has given you this land.
»Spomnite se besede, ki vam jo je zapovedal Gospodov služabnik Mojzes, rekoč: › Gospod, vaš Bog, vam je dal počitek in vam je dal to deželo.‹
14 Your wives, your little ones, and your cattle shall abide in the land that Moses gave you on this side of the Jordan, but ye, all the valiant men, shall go over in array before your brethren and help them,
Vaše žene, vaši malčki in vaša živina bodo ostali v deželi, ki vam jo je dal Mojzes na tej strani Jordana, toda vi boste pred vašimi brati prečkali oboroženi, vsi močni junaški možje in jim pomagali,
15 until Jehovah give your brethren rest as to you, and they also take possession of the land which Jehovah your God giveth them; then shall ye return into the land of your possession and possess it, which Moses the servant of Jehovah gave you on this side of the Jordan toward the sun-rising.
dokler Gospod ne da vašim bratom počitek, kakor ga je dal vam in tudi oni ne vzamejo v last dežele, ki jim jo daje Gospod, vaš Bog. Potem se boste vrnili v deželo svoje posesti in jo uživali, ki vam jo je dal Gospodov služabnik Mojzes na tej strani Jordana, proti sončnemu vzhodu.«
16 And they answered Joshua, saying, All that thou hast commanded us will we do, and whither thou shalt send us will we go.
Józuetu so odgovorili, rekoč: »Vse, kar nam zapoveduješ, bomo storili in kamor nas pošlješ, bomo šli.
17 According as we hearkened to Moses in all things, so will we hearken to thee; only may Jehovah thy God be with thee as he was with Moses.
Glede na to, kakor smo Mojzesu prisluhnili v vseh stvareh, tako bomo prisluhnili tebi. Samo Gospod, tvoj Bog, naj bo s teboj, kakor je bil z Mojzesom.
18 Every one that is rebellious against thy commandment and hearkeneth not to thy words in everything that thou commandest us, shall be put to death. Only be strong and courageous.
Kdorkoli je ta, ki se upre zoper tvojo zapoved in ne bo prisluhnil tvojim besedam v vsem, kar mu zapoveš, bo usmrčen. Samo močan bodi in odločnega poguma.«
