< Deuteronomy 10 >
1 At that time the LORD said unto me: 'Hew thee two tables of stone like unto the first, and come up unto Me into the mount; and make thee an ark of wood.
U to vrijeme Jahve mi reče: 'Iskleši dvije kamene ploče kao i prijašnje pa se popni k meni na brdo; a napravi i drveni kovčeg.
2 And I will write on the tables the words that were on the first tables which thou didst break, and thou shalt put them in the ark.'
Na ploče ću napisati riječi koje su bile na prvim pločama što si ih razbio. A onda ih položi u kovčeg.'
3 So I made an ark of acacia-wood, and hewed two tables of stone like unto the first, and went up into the mount, having the two tables in my hand.
Načinih kovčeg od bagremovine, isklesah dvije kamene ploče kao što bijahu prve, pa se, s dvjema pločama u ruci, popeh na brdo.
4 And He wrote on the tables according to the first writing, the ten words, which the LORD spoke unto you in the mount out of the midst of the fire in the day of the assembly; and the LORD gave them unto me.
I napisa na te ploče, kao i prije, Deset riječi koje vam je Jahve rekao na brdu, isred ognja, na dan zbora. Onda ih Jahve dade meni.
5 And I turned and came down from the mount, and put the tables in the ark which I had made; and there they are, as the LORD commanded me. —
Okrenuh se i siđoh s brda. Položih ploče u kovčeg koji bijah napravio. I stadoše ondje, kako mi je Jahve naredio.
6 And the children of Israel journeyed from Beeroth-benejaakan to Moserah; there Aaron died, and there he was buried; and Eleazar his son ministered in the priest's office in his stead.
Od Beerota sinova Jaakanovih odoše Izraelci u Moseru. Ondje umrije Aron i ondje bi pokopan. Svećenikom mjesto njega postade njegov sin Eleazar.
7 From thence they journeyed unto Gudgod; and from Gudgod to Jotbah, a land of brooks of water. —
Odande odoše u Gudgodu; iz Gudgode u Jotbatu, u kraj bogat potocima.
8 At that time the LORD separated the tribe of Levi, to bear the ark of the covenant of the LORD, to stand before the LORD to minister unto Him, and to bless in His name, unto this day.
U to vrijeme odvoji Jahve pleme Levijevo da nosi Kovčeg saveza Jahvina; da pred Jahvom stoji u njegovoj službi te da u njegovo ime blagoslivlja, kako radi i danas.
9 Wherefore Levi hath no portion nor inheritance with his brethren; the LORD is his inheritance, according as the LORD thy God spoke unto him. —
Stoga Levi nema udjela ni baštine sa svojom braćom: Jahve je njegova baština, kako mu je Jahve, Bog tvoj, i rekao.
10 Now I stayed in the mount, as at the first time, forty days and forty nights; and the LORD hearkened unto me that time also; the LORD would not destroy thee.
Na brdu sam ostao, kao i prvi put, četrdeset dana i četrdeset noći. I usliša me Jahve i taj put; nije htio da te uništi,
11 And the LORD said unto me: 'Arise, go before the people, causing them to set forward, that they may go in and possess the land, which I swore unto their fathers to give unto them.'
nego mi Jahve reče: 'Ustaj! Idi pred ovim narodom da uđu i zaposjednu zemlju za koju sam se zakleo njihovim ocima da ću im je dati.'
12 And now, Israel, what doth the LORD thy God require of thee, but to fear the LORD thy God, to walk in all His ways, and to love Him, and to serve the LORD thy God with all thy heart and with all thy soul;
Dakle, Izraele, što od tebe traži Jahve, Bog tvoj? Samo to da se bojiš Jahve, Boga svoga; da po svim putovima njegovim hodiš; da ga ljubiš i služiš Jahvi, Bogu svome, svim srcem svojim i svom dušom svojom;
13 to keep for thy good the commandments of the LORD, and His statutes, which I command thee this day?
da držiš Jahvine zapovijedi i njegove zakone što ti ih danas za tvoje dobro dajem.
14 Behold, unto the LORD thy God belongeth the heaven, and the heaven of heavens, the earth, with all that therein is.
Evo, Jahvi, Bogu tvome, pripada nebo i nebo nad nebesima, zemlja i sve što je na njoj.
15 Only the LORD had a delight in thy fathers to love them, and He chose their seed after them, even you, above all peoples, as it is this day.
Ali Jahvi samo vaši oci omilješe i poslije njih izabrao je vas, potomke njihove, između svih naroda, kako je i danas.
16 Circumcise therefore the foreskin of your heart, and be no more stiffnecked.
Srce svoje obrežite; šiju više ne ukrućujte!
17 For the LORD your God, He is God of gods, and Lord of lords, the great God, the mighty, and the awful, who regardeth not persons, nor taketh reward.
Jer Jahve, Bog vaš, Bog je nad bogovima, Gospodar nad gospodarima, Bog velik, jak i strašan, koji nije pristran i ne da se podmititi;
18 He doth execute justice for the fatherless and widow, and loveth the stranger, in giving him food and raiment.
daje pravdu siroti i udovici; ljubi pridošlicu, daje mu hranu i odjeću.
19 Love ye therefore the stranger; for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt.
Ljubite i vi pridošlicu, jer ste i sami bili pridošlice u zemlji egipatskoj.
20 Thou shalt fear the LORD thy God; Him shalt thou serve; and to Him shalt thou cleave, and by His name shalt thou swear.
Boj se Jahve, Boga svojeg; njemu služi; uza nj se priljubi; njegovim imenom priseži.
21 He is thy glory, and He is thy God, that hath done for thee these great and tremendous things, which thine eyes have seen.
On je tvoja slava, Bog tvoj, koji je radi tebe učinio velika i čudesna djela što su ih vidjele tvoje oči.
22 Thy fathers went down into Egypt with threescore and ten persons; and now the LORD thy God hath made thee as the stars of heaven for multitude.
Tvojih otaca, kad su se spustili u Egipat, bješe samo sedamdeset, a sad je Jahve, Bog tvoj, učinio te vas ima kao zvijezda na nebu.
