Deuteronomy 32
1 Hearken, ye heauens, and I will speake: and let the earth heare the words of my mouth.
“Slušajte, nebesa, sad ću govoriti; čuj, zemljo, riječi usta mojih!
2 My doctrine shall drop as the raine, and my speach shall stil as the dew, as the showre vpon the herbes, and as the great raine vpon the grasse.
Nek' mi nauk daždi poput kiše, kao rosa riječ nek' moja pada, kao kišica po mladoj zeleni, kao pljusak po travi velikoj!
3 For I will publish the name of the Lord: giue ye glorie vnto our God.
Jer, Jahvino ću ime uznositi, a vi Boga našeg veličajte!
4 Perfect is the worke of the mighty God: for all his wayes are iudgement. God is true, and without wickednesse: iust, and righteous is he.
On je Stijena, djelo mu je savršeno, jer pravi su svi njegovi putovi. Bog je on vjeran i bez zloće, pravedan je on i pravičan.
5 They haue corrupted them selues towarde him by their vice, not being his children, but a frowarde and crooked generation.
Oni mu se iznevjeriše - nisu mu sinovi, već nakaze sinovske, porod izopačen i prepreden.
6 Doe ye so rewarde the Lord, O foolish people and vnwise? is not he thy father, that hath bought thee? he hath made thee, and proportioned thee.
Tako li uzvraćaš Jahvi, narode glupi i bezumni! Nije li on Otac tvoj, Stvoritelj, koji te sazdao, po kom postojiš?
7 Remember the dayes of olde: consider the yeeres of so many generations: aske thy father, and he will shewe thee: thine Elders, and they will tell thee.
Spomeni se dana pradavnih, promotri godine od naraštaja do naraštaja. Oca svoga pitaj, i poučit će te, pitaj starije, pa će ti kazati.
8 When the most hie God deuided to the nations their inheritance, when he separated the sonnes of Adam, he appoynted the borders of the people, according to the nomber of the children of Israel.
Kad je Višnji baštinu dijelio narodima, kad je razmještao sinove čovječje, odredi im međe po broju Božjih sinova:
9 For the Lordes portion is his people: Iaakob is the lot of his inheritance.
tad Jahvu njegov narod zapade, Jakov bi njegova baština.
10 He found him in ye land of ye wildernes, in a waste, and roaring wildernes: he led him about, he taught him, and kept him as ye apple of his eye.
U zemlji stepskoj on ga je našao, u pustinjskoj jezivoj pustoši. Obujmio ga, gajio ga i čuvao k'o zjenu oka svoga.
11 As an eagle stereth vp her nest, flootereth ouer her birdes, stretcheth out her wings, taketh them, and beareth them on her wings,
Poput orla što bdi nad gnijezdom, nad svojim orlićima lebdeći, tako on krila širi, uzima ga, pa ga na svojim nosi perima.
12 So the Lord alone led him, and there was no strange god with him.
Jahve sam njega je vodio, tuđeg boga s njim ne bijaše.
13 He caryed him vp to the hie places of the earth, that he might eate the fruites of the fieldes, and he caused him to sucke hony out of the stone, and oyle out of the hard rocke:
Povede ga po visočjima zemlje, nahrani ga plodovima poljskim, dade mu meda iz pećine i ulja iz tvrde stijene;
14 Butter of kine, and milke of sheepe with fat of the lambes, and rammes fed in Bashan, and goates, with the fat of the graines of wheat, and the red licour of the grape hast thou drunke.
kravljeg masla i ovčjeg mlijeka s pretilinom jaganjaca, ovnova bašanskih i jaraca, sa salom žitnih bubrega, i napoji ga pjenušavom krvlju grožđa.
15 But he that should haue bene vpright, when he waxed fat, spurned with his heele: thou art fat, thou art grosse, thou art laden with fatnes: therefore he forsooke God that made him, and regarded not the strong God of his saluation.
Jeo je Jakov i nasitio se, ugojio se Ješurun pa se uzritao. Udebljao si se, utovio, usalio. Odbacio je Boga koji ga stvori i prezreo Stijenu svog spasenja.
16 They prouoked him with strange gods: they prouoked him to anger with abominations.
Tuđim bozima učiniše ga ljubomornim, razjariše ga gnusobama.
17 They offred vnto deuils, not to God, but to gods whome they knew not: new gods that came newly vp, whome their fathers feared not.
Žrtvovahu zlodusima koji Bog nisu, bogovima kojih ne poznavahu prije, došljacima koji stigoše nedavno i koje oci njihovi ne štovahu.
18 Thou hast forgotten the mightie God that begate thee, and hast forgotten God that formed thee.
Odnemaruješ Stijenu što te na svijet dade, ne sjećaš se više Boga koji te rodi!
19 The Lord then sawe it, and was angrie, for the prouocation of his sonnes and of his daughters.
Vidje to Jahve i u gnjevu svojem odbaci sinove svoje i kćeri.
20 And he said, I will hide my face from the: I will see what their ende shalbe: for they are a frowarde generation, children in who is no faith.
Lice ću im svoje sakriti, reče, i vidjet ću što će biti od njih. Jer izopačeno je to koljeno, sinovi u kojima vjernosti nema.
21 They haue moued me to ielousie with that which is not God: they haue prouoked me to anger with their vanities: and I will moue them to ielousie with those which are no people: I wil prouoke them to anger with a foolish nation.
Ništavnim me bogom na ljubomor potakoše, razdražiše me ništavilima svojim, i ja ću njih ljubomornim učinit', pukom ništavnim, razdražit ću ih glupim nekim narodom!
22 For fire is kindled in my wrath, and shall burne vnto the bottome of hell, and shall consume the earth with her increase, and set on fire the foundations of the mountaines. (Sheol h7585)
Da, moga gnjeva požar je usplamtio i gorjet će do dubina šeolskih; proždrijet će zemlju i sve što ona rađa, sažeći joj brda do temelja. (Sheol h7585)
23 I will spend plagues vpon them: I will bestowe mine arrowes vpon them.
Nevolje na njih ću svaliti, na njih ću svoje istrošiti strijele.
24 They shalbe burnt with hunger, and consumed with heate, and with bitter destruction: I will also sende the teeth of beastes vpon them, with the venime of serpents creeping in the dust.
Od gladi će umirati, ognjica i pošast njih će trovati. Poslat ću na njih zub zvjerinji i otrov zmija što prahom gmižu.
25 The sworde shall kill them without, and in the chambers feare: both the yong man and the yong woman, the suckeling with the man of gray heare.
Vani će mač zatirati djecu, a strava će vladati unutra. Ginut će jednako momak i djevojka, dojenče i starac sjedokos.
26 I haue said, I would scatter them abroade: I would make their remembrance to cease from among men,
Rekoh: U prah ću ih smrviti, zbrisati im spomen izmed ljudi.
27 Saue that I feared the furie of the enemie, least their aduersaries should waxe proude, and least they should say, Our hie hande and not the Lord hath done all this:
Ali se bojah ruga dušmanskoga: mogli bi im prevarit' se protivnici, pa da kažu: 'Pobjeda je naša, nije to Jahvina izvela ruka.'
28 For they are a nation voide of counsel, neither is there any vnderstanding in them.
Jer narod je to neupućen, oštroumlja u njih nema.
29 Oh that they were wise, then they would vnderstand this: they would consider their latter ende.
Da su mudri, već bi se i dosjetili, razabrali što ih očekuje.
30 How should one chase a thousand, and two put ten thousande to flight, except their strong God had sold the, and the Lord had shut them vp?
Kako da jedan tisuću u bijeg nagna, i deset tisuća da dvojica gone, da ih Stijena njina nije prodala, da ih Jahve nije izručio?
31 For their god is not as our God, euen our enemies being iudges.
Al' stijena im nije poput naše Stijene; osuđeni su naši neprijatelji.
32 For their vine is of the vine of Sodom, and of the vines of Gomorah: their grapes are grapes of gall, their clusters be bitter.
Jer trs je njihov od sodomskog trsa i od vinograda gomorskih; grožđe im je grožđe otrovno, grozdovi im grozdovi gorčine;
33 Their wine is the poyson of dragons, and the cruel gall of aspes.
njihovo je vino otrov zmijski, žestok jed otrovnice ljute.
34 Is not this laide in store with me, and sealed vp among my treasures?
Al' nije li on u mene poput dragulja, zapečaćen u mojim riznicama?
35 Vengeance and recompence are mine: their foote shall slide in due time: for the day of their destruction is at hand, and the things that shall come vpon them, make haste.
Moja je odmazda i nagrada u vrijeme kad im noga posrne. Jer blizu je dan njihove propasti, udes njihov brzo im se bliži!
36 For the Lord shall iudge his people, and repent towarde his seruants, when hee seeth that their power is gone, and none shut vp in holde nor left abroad.
(Pravdu će Jahve dati svome puku, sažalit se nad slugama svojim.) Vidjet će da im gine snaga, da je i robu i slobodnu kraj.
37 When men shall say, Where are their gods, their mighty God in whome they trusted,
Tad će reći: 'Ta gdje su bozi njihovi, gdje stijena kojom se zaklanjahu?
38 Which did eate the fat of their sacrifices, and did drinke the wine of their drinke offring? let them rise vp, and help you: let him be your refuge.
Oni što su jeli salo njihovih klanica i pili vino njihovih ljevanica?' Neka se dignu i neka vam pomognu, nek' vam budu zaklonište!
39 Behold now, for I, I am he, and there is no gods with me: I kill, and giue life: I wound, and I make whole: neither is there any that can deliuer out of mine hand.
Vidite sada da ja, ja jesam, i da drugog Boga pored mene nema! Ja usmrćujem i oživljujem; ja udaram i iscjeljujem (i nitko se iz ruke moje ne izbavlja).
40 For I lift vp mine hand to heauen, and say, I liue for euer.
Da, svoju ruku ja dižem prema nebu i kažem: Ne bio ja živ vječito
41 If I whet my glittering sworde, and mine hand take holde on iudgement, I will execute vengeance on mine enemies, and will rewarde them that hate me.
ako naoštrivši mač svoj blistavi ne uzmem sud u svoje ruke da svojim odmazdim dušmanima, da naplatim onima koji mene mrze.
42 I will make mine arrowes drunke with blood, (and my sword shall eate flesh) for the blood of the slaine, and of the captiues, when I beginne to take vengeance of the enemie.
Strijele svoje opojit ću krvlju i mač moj najest će se mesa, krvi ubijenih i zarobljenih, glava dušmanskih vrhovnika.
43 Ye nations, praise his people: for he will auenge the blood of his seruants, and will execute vengeance vpon his aduersaries, and will bee mercifull vnto his lande, and to his people.
Kličite, o nebesa, s njime, obožavajte ga, sinovi Božji! Kličite, puci, s njegovim narodom, uznosite snagu njegovu, poslanici Jahvini. Jer će krv slugu svojih osvetiti, istom mjerom vratit' dušmanima, naplatit će od onih koji njega mrze, očistit' od grijeha zemlju svog naroda.”
44 Then Moses came and spake all ye words of this song in the audience of the people, he and Hoshea the sonne of Nun.
Dođe Mojsije s Jošuom, sinom Nunovim, te izgovori u uši naroda riječi ove pjesme.
45 When Moses had made an end of speaking all these wordes to all Israel,
Kad Mojsije izgovori sve ove riječi svemu Izraelu,
46 Then hee said vnto them, Set your heartes vnto all the wordes which I testifie against you this day, that ye may commande them vnto your children, that they may obserue and doo all the wordes of this Lawe.
reče im: “U srca svoja usadite sve riječi koje danas uzimam za svjedoka protiv vas; naredite sinovima svojim da ih drže vršeći sve riječi ovoga Zakona.
47 For it is no vaine worde concerning you, but it is your life, and by this worde ye shall prolong your dayes in the land, whither yee go ouer Iorden to possesse it.
TÓa nije to za vas prazna riječ jer ona je vaš život. Zbog ove riječi živjet ćete dugo na zemlji koju ćete, prešavši Jordan, zaposjesti.”
48 And the Lord spake vnto Moses the selfe same day, saying,
Toga istog dana Jahve reče Mojsiju:
49 Goe vp into the mountaine of Abarim, vnto the mount Nebo, which is in the lande of Moab, that is ouer against Iericho: and beholde the lande of Canaan, which I giue vnto the children of Israel for a possession,
“Popni se na goru Nebo u Abarskom gorju - ono je u moapskoj zemlji nasuprot Jerihonu - pa pogledaj zemlju kanaansku što ću je dati u posjed Izraelcima.
50 And die in the mount which thou goest vp vnto, and thou shalt be gathered vnto thy people, as Aaron thy brother died in mount Hor, and was gathered vnto his people,
Onda umri na gori na koju se uspneš i pridruži se svojim precima kao što je i tvoj brat Aron, koji je umro na brdu Horu, bio pridružen svojima.
51 Because ye trespassed against me among the children of Israel, at the waters of Meribah, at Kadesh in the wildernesse of Zin: for ye sanctified me not among the children of Israel.
A to zato što ste mi se iznevjerili sred Izraelaca kod Meriba Kadeša, kod voda u pustinji Sinu: niste očitovali moju svetost među Izraelcima.
52 Thou shalt therefore see the lande before thee, but shalt not go thither, I meane, into the land which I giue the children of Israel.
Zato ćeš samo izdaleka vidjeti onu zemlju, ali u nju nećeš ući - u zemlju koju dajem Izraelcima.”
