Numbers 14
1 And the whole assembly lifted up their voice, and cried; and the people wept that night.
Tada zagraja sva zajednica i poče vikati. I te noći narod plakaše.
2 And all the children of Israel murmured against Moses and against Aaron; and the whole assembly said to them, Would that we had died in the land of Egypt! or in this wilderness would that we had died!
Svi su Izraelci mrmljali protiv Mojsija i Arona. Sva im je zajednica govorila: “Kamo sreće da smo pomrli u zemlji egipatskoj! Ili da smo pomrli u ovoj pustinji!
3 And why is Jehovah bringing us to this land that we may fall by the sword, that our wives and our little ones may become a prey? Is it not better for us to return to Egypt?
Zašto nas Jahve vodi u tu zemlju da padnemo od mača a žene naše i djeca da postanu roblje! Zar nam ne bi bilo bolje da se vratimo u Egipat!”
4 And they said one to another, Let us make a captain, and let us return to Egypt.
Jedan je drugome govorio: “Postavimo sebi vođu i vratimo se u Egipat!”
5 Then Moses and Aaron fell upon their faces before the whole congregation of the assembly of the children of Israel.
Mojsije i Aron padoše ničice pred svom okupljenom izraelskom zajednicom.
6 And Joshua the son of Nun, and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, of them that searched out the land, rent their garments.
A Jošua, sin Nunov, i Kaleb, sin Jefuneov, koji bijahu među onima što su izviđali zemlju, razderaše svoju odjeću.
7 And they spoke to the whole assembly of the children of Israel, saying, The land, which we passed through to search it out, is a very, very good land.
Zatim rekoše svoj zajednici izraelskoj: “Zemlja kroz koju smo prošli da je istražimo izvanredno je dobra.
8 If Jehovah delight in us, he will bring us into this land, and give it us, a land that flows with milk and honey;
Ako nam Jahve bude dobrostiv, u tu će nas zemlju dovesti i dat će nam je. To je zemlja u kojoj teče med i mlijeko.
9 only rebel not against Jehovah; and fear not the people of the land; for they shall be our food. Their defence is departed from them, and Jehovah is with us: fear them not.
Samo, nemojte se buniti protiv Jahve! Ne bojte se naroda one zemlje: tÓa on je zalogaj za nas. Oni su bez zaštite, a s nama je Jahve! Ne bojte ih se!”
10 And the whole assembly said that they should be stoned with stones. And the glory of Jehovah appeared in the tent of meeting to all the children of Israel.
I dok je sva zajednica već mislila da ih kamenuje, pokaza se Slava Jahvina u Šatoru sastanka svima sinovima Izraelovim.
11 And Jehovah said to Moses, How long will this people despise me? and how long will they not believe me, for all the signs which I have done among them?
Tada reče Mojsiju: “Dokle će me taj narod prezirati? Dokle mi neće vjerovati unatoč svim znamenjima što sam ih među njima izvodio?
12 I will smite them with the pestilence, and destroy them, and will make of thee a nation greater and mightier than they.
Udarit ću ih pomorom i istrijebiti, a od tebe ću učiniti narod veći i moćniji od njega.”
13 And Moses said to Jehovah, Then the Egyptians will hear it; for in thy might thou broughtest up this people from the midst of them;
Onda Mojsije reče Jahvi: “Egipćani su shvatili da si ti, svojom moći, izveo ovaj narod između njih.
14 and they will tell it to the inhabitants of this land, [who] have heard that thou, Jehovah, art in the midst of this people, that thou, Jehovah, lettest thyself be seen eye to eye, and that thy cloud standeth over them, and that thou goest before them, in a pillar of cloud by day, and in a pillar of fire by night;
Oni su to kazali žiteljima one zemlje. Već su saznali da si ti, Jahve, usred ovog naroda, kojemu se očituješ licem u lice, i da ti, Jahve, u oblaku stojiš nad njima; da obdan u stupu od oblaka, a obnoć u stupu od ognja ideš pred njima.
15 if thou now slayest this people as one man, then the nations that have heard thy fame will speak, saying,
Zato, ako pobiješ ovaj narod kao jednoga čovjeka, narodi koji su čuli glas o tebi reći će:
16 Because Jehovah was not able to bring this people into the land that he had sworn unto them, he has therefore slain them in the wilderness.
'Jahve je bio nemoćan da dovede ovaj narod u zemlju koju mu je pod zakletvom obećao, i zato ih je poubijao u pustinji.'
17 And now, I beseech thee, let the power of the Lord be great, according as thou hast spoken, saying,
Zato neka se snaga moga Gospodina uzvisi, kako si najavio rekavši:
18 Jehovah is slow to anger, and abundant in goodness, forgiving iniquity and transgression, but by no means clearing [the guilty], visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, upon the third and fourth [generation].
'Jahve je spor na srdžbu, a bogat milosrđem; podnosi opačinu i prijestup, ali krivca ne ostavlja nekažnjena, nego opačinu otaca kažnjava na djeci do trećega i četvrtog koljena.'
19 Pardon, I beseech thee, the iniquity of this people according to the greatness of thy loving-kindness, and as thou hast forgiven this people, from Egypt even until now.
Oprosti krivnju ovome narodu po veličini svoga milosrđa, kao što si vodio ovaj narod od Egipta dovde.”
20 And Jehovah said, I have pardoned according to thy word.
“Opraštam po riječi tvojoj”, reče Jahve.
21 But as surely as I live, all the earth shall be filled with the glory of Jehovah!
“Ali ipak, tako ja živ bio i slave se Jahvine napunila sva zemlja,
22 for all those men who have seen my glory, and my signs, which I did in Egypt and in the wilderness, and have tempted me these ten times, and have not hearkened to my voice,
ni jedan od ljudi koji su vidjeli slavu moju i znamenja što sam ih izveo u Egiptu i u pustinji, pa me ipak iskušavali već deset puta ne hoteći poslušati moj glas,
23 shall in no wise see the land which I did swear unto their fathers: none of them that despised me shall see it.
neće vidjeti zemlje što sam je pod zakletvom obećao njihovim ocima; nitko od onih koji me preziru neće je vidjeti.
24 But my servant Caleb, because he hath another spirit in him, and hath followed me fully, him will I bring into the land whereinto he came; and his seed shall possess it.
A slugu svoga Kaleba, jer je u njemu drukčiji duh i jer mi bijaše poslušan, njega ću ja dovesti u zemlju u koju je išao i njegovi će je potomci zaposjesti! Neka Amalečani i Kanaanci samo ostanu u dolini.
25 (Now the Amalekites and the Canaanites dwell in the valley.) To-morrow turn you, and take your journey into the wilderness, on the way to the Red sea.
Sutra se vratite i krenite u pustinju put Crvenog mora.”
26 And Jehovah spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
Još reče Jahve Mojsiju i Aronu:
27 How long [shall I bear] with this evil assembly, which murmur against me? I have heard the murmurings of the children of Israel, which they murmur against me.
“Dokle će ta opaka zajednica mrmljati protiv mene? Čuo sam tužbe što ih Izraelci na me dižu.
28 Say unto them, As surely as I live, saith Jehovah, if I do not do unto you as ye have spoken in mine ears!
Kaži im: Tako ja živ bio, objavljuje Jahve, kako ste na moje uši govorili, tako ću vam i učiniti.
29 In this wilderness shall your carcases fall; and all that were numbered of you, according to your whole number from twenty years old and upwards, who have murmured against me,
U ovoj pustinji popadat će vaša mrtva tijela: svih vas koji ste ubilježeni u bilo koji vaš popis od dvadeset godina pa naprijed, koji ste rogoborili protiv mene.
30 shall in no wise come into the land, concerning which I have lifted up my hand to make you dwell in it; save Caleb the son of Jephunneh, and Joshua the son of Nun.
Nećete ući u zemlju na koju sam svoju ruku digao da vas u njoj nastanim, osim Kaleba, sina Jefuneova, i Jošue, sina Nunova.
31 But your little ones, of whom ye said they should be a prey, them will I bring in, and they shall know the land that ye have despised.
A vašu djecu, o kojoj kažete da bi postala roblje, njih ću uvesti da nastane zemlju što ste je vi prezreli.
32 And as to you, your carcases shall fall in this wilderness.
A vi? Neka vam tjelesa popadaju u ovoj pustinji!
33 And your children shall wander in the wilderness forty years, and bear your whoredoms, until your carcases be wasted in the wilderness.
Vaši sinovi neka lutaju pustinjom četrdeset godina, neka trpe zbog vaše nevjere dok vam ne ispropadaju tjelesa u ovoj pustinji.
34 After the number of the days in which ye have searched out the land, forty days, each day for a year shall ye bear your iniquities forty years, and ye shall know mine estrangement [from you].
Prema broju dana u koje ste istraživali zemlju - dana četrdeset, za svaki dan jednu godinu - ispaštajte svoje opačine četrdeset godina. Iskusite što znači mene napustiti.
35 I Jehovah have spoken; I will surely do it unto all this evil assembly which have gathered together against me! in this wilderness they shall be consumed, and there they shall die.
Ja, Jahve, to kažem: tako ću postupiti s ovom opakom zajednicom što se sjatila protiv mene. U ovoj istoj pustinji neka završi! Tu neka izgine.”
36 And the men whom Moses had sent to search out the land, who returned, and made the whole assembly to murmur against him, by bringing up an evil report upon the land,
A oni ljudi koje Mojsije bijaše poslao da istraže zemlju i koji su nakon povratka potakli svu zajednicu da rogobori protiv njega ozloglašujući zemlju;
37 even those men who had brought up an evil report upon the land, died by a plague before Jehovah.
oni, dakle, ljudi koji su zlobno ozloglasili zemlju bijahu pomoreni pred Jahvom.
38 But Joshua the son of Nun, and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, lived still of the men that had gone to search out the land.
Od onih ljudi koji su išli da istraže zemlju ostadoše na životu jedino Jošua, sin Nunov, i Kaleb, sin Jefuneov.
39 And Moses told all these sayings to all the children of Israel; then the people mourned greatly.
Kad je Mojsije prenio te riječi svim Izraelcima, narod se uvelike ražalosti.
40 And they rose up early in the morning, and went up to the hill-top, saying, Here are we, and we will go up to the place of which Jehovah has spoken; for we have sinned.
I uranivši ujutro počnu se uspinjati na vrh brda govoreći. “Evo uzlazimo na mjesto o kojem je govorio Jahve jer smo zgriješili.”
41 And Moses said, Why now do ye transgress the commandment of Jehovah? but it shall not prosper!
A Mojsije rekne: “Zašto kršite zapovijed Jahvinu? Nećete uspjeti.
42 Go not up, for Jehovah is not among you; that ye be not smitten before your enemies;
Ne penjite se, da vas ne potuku vaši neprijatelji, jer Jahve nije među vama.
43 for the Amalekites and the Canaanites are there before you, and ye shall fall by the sword; for as ye have turned away from Jehovah, Jehovah will not be with you.
Ta ondje se pred vama nalaze Amalečani i Kanaanci te ćete od mača pasti jer ste se odvratili od Jahve i jer Jahve neće biti s vama.”
44 Yet they presumed to go up to the hill-top; but the ark of the covenant of Jehovah, and Moses, did not depart from the midst of the camp.
Ali se oni prkosno penjahu prema vrhu brda, iako se ni Kovčeg saveza Jahvina ni Mojsije nisu micali iz tabora.
45 And the Amalekites and the Canaanites who dwelt on that hill, came down and smote them, and cut them to pieces, as far as Hormah.
Amalečani i Kanaanci koji su živjeli na onome brdu spuste se, udare po njima i rasprše ih sve do Horme.
