< Deuteronomy 2 >
1 Then we turned, and took our journey into the wilderness by the way to the Red Sea, as the LORD spoke unto me; and we compassed mount Seir many days.
Potem smo se obrnili in šli na svoje potovanje v divjino, ob poti Rdečega morja, kakor mi je Gospod govoril in mnogo dni smo obkrožali gorovje Seír.
2 And the LORD spoke unto me, saying:
In Gospod mi je spregovoril, rekoč:
3 'Ye have compassed this mountain long enough; turn you northward.
›Dovolj dolgo ste obkrožali to goro, obrnite se proti severu.
4 And command thou the people, saying: Ye are to pass through the border of your brethren the children of Esau, that dwell in Seir; and they will be afraid of you; take ye good heed unto yourselves therefore;
Zapovej ljudstvu, rekoč: ›Šli boste skozi pokrajino svojih bratov, Ezavovih otrok, ki prebivajo v Seírju in oni se vas bodo bali, zato dobro pazite nase.
5 contend not with them; for I will not give you of their land, no, not so much as for the sole of the foot to tread on; because I have given mount Seir unto Esau for a possession.
Ne vmešavajte se vanje, kajti ne bom vam dal od njihove dežele, ne, niti za širino stopala ne, ker sem gorovje Seír izročil Ezavu za posest.
6 Ye shall purchase food of them for money, that ye may eat; and ye shall also buy water of them for money, that ye may drink.
Od njih boste hrano kupovali za denar, da boste lahko jedli in od njih boste tudi vodo kupovali za denar, da boste lahko pili.
7 For the LORD thy God hath blessed thee in all the work of thy hand; He hath known thy walking through this great wilderness; these forty years the LORD thy God hath been with thee; thou hast lacked nothing.'
Kajti Gospod, tvoj Bog, te je blagoslovil pri vseh delih tvoje roke. Pozna tvojo hojo skozi to veliko divjino. Teh štirideset let je bil Gospod, tvoj Bog, s teboj; nikakršnega pomanjkanja nisi trpel.‹‹
8 So we passed by from our brethren the children of Esau, that dwell in Seir, from the way of the Arabah, from Elath and from Ezion-geber. And we turned and passed by the way of the wilderness of Moab.
Ko smo šli mimo svojih bratov, Ezavovih otrok, ki so prebivali v Seírju, skozi pot ravnine od Eláta in od Ecjón Geberja, smo se obrnili in prešli po poti moábske divjine.
9 And the LORD said unto me: 'Be not at enmity with Moab, neither contend with them in battle; for I will not give thee of his land for a possession; because I have given Ar unto the children of Lot for a possession. —
Gospod mi je rekel: ›Moábcev ne spravi v tegobo niti se z njimi ne spoprimi v boju, kajti njihove dežele ti ne bom dal v last, ker sem Ar dal Lotovim otrokom za posest.‹
10 The Emim dwelt therein aforetime, a people great, and many, and tall, as the Anakim;
Emejci so v njej prebivali v preteklih časih, veliko, številno in visoko ljudstvo, kakor Anákovci,
11 these also are accounted Rephaim, as the Anakim; but the Moabites call them Emim.
ki so bili tudi prišteti med velikane, kakor Anákovci, toda Moábci so jih imenovali Emejci.
12 And in Seir dwelt the Horites aforetime, but the children of Esau succeeded them; and they destroyed them from before them, and dwelt in their stead; as Israel did unto the land of his possession, which the LORD gave unto them. —
Tudi Horéjci so poprej prebivali v Seírju, toda Ezavovi otroci so jih pregnali, ko so jih uničili pred seboj in prebivali namesto njih, kakor je Izrael storil v deželi njihove posesti, ki jim jo je dal Gospod.
13 Now rise up, and get you over the brook Zered.' And we went over the brook Zered.
›Sedaj se vzdignite, ‹ sem rekel ›in se odpravite čez potok Zered.‹ In šli smo preko potoka Zered.
14 And the days in which we came from Kadesh-barnea, until we were come over the brook Zered, were thirty and eight years; until all the generation, even the men of war, were consumed from the midst of the camp, as the LORD swore unto them.
Časa, v katerem smo prišli iz Kadeš Barnée, dokler nismo prešli preko potoka Zered, je bilo osemintrideset let, dokler ni pomrl ves rod bojevnikov izmed vojske, kakor jim je prisegel Gospod.
15 Moreover the hand of the LORD was against them, to discomfit them from the midst of the camp, until they were consumed.
Kajti zares je bila Gospodova roka zoper njih, da jih uniči izmed vojske, dokler niso bili použiti.
16 So it came to pass, when all the men of war were consumed and dead from among the people,
Tako se je pripetilo, ko so bili vsi bojevniki izmed ljudstva použiti in mrtvi,
17 that the LORD spoke unto me saying:
da mi je Gospod spregovoril, rekoč:
18 'Thou art this day to pass over the border of Moab, even Ar;
›Danes boš prešel skozi Ar, moábsko pokrajino
19 and when thou comest nigh over against the children of Ammon, harass them not, nor contend with them; for I will not give thee of the land of the children of Ammon for a possession; because I have given it unto the children of Lot for a possession. —
in ko prideš blizu, nasproti Amónovih otrok, jih ne spravi v tegobo niti se ne vmešavaj vanje, kajti od dežele Amónovih otrok ti ne bom dal nobene posesti, ker sem jo dal Lotovim otrokom za posest.‹
20 That also is accounted a land of Rephaim: Rephaim dwelt therein aforetime; but the Ammonites call them Zamzummim,
(Tudi ta je bila šteta [za] deželo velikanov. Tam so v starih časih prebivali velikani. Amónci so jih imenovali Zamzuméjce,
21 a people great, and many, and tall, as the Anakim; but the LORD destroyed them before them; and they succeeded them, and dwelt in their stead;
veliko, številno in visoko ljudstvo, kakor Anákovci. Toda Gospod jih je uničil pred njimi in oni so jih nasledili in prebivali namesto njih,
22 as He did for the children of Esau, that dwell in Seir, when He destroyed the Horites from before them; and they succeeded them, and dwelt in their stead even unto this day;
kakor je storil Ezavovim otrokom, ki so prebivali v Seírju, ko je pred njimi uničil Horéjce. Le-ti so jih nasledili in celo do tega dne prebivali namesto njih.
23 and the Avvim, that dwelt in villages as far as Gaza, the Caphtorim, that came forth out of Caphtor, destroyed them, and dwelt in their stead. —
Avéjce, ki so prebivali v Haserimu, celó do Gaze, so Kaftorejci, ki so izšli iz Kaftorja, uničili in prebivali namesto njih.)
24 Rise ye up, take your journey, and pass over the valley of Arnon; behold, I have given into thy hand Sihon the Amorite, king of Heshbon, and his land; begin to possess it, and contend with him in battle.
›Dvignite se, pojdite na potovanje in prečkajte reko Arnón. Glej, v tvojo roko sem izročil Amoréjca Sihóna, kralja v Hešbónu in njegovo deželo. Začnite jo jemati v last in se z njim spoprimite v bitki.
25 This day will I begin to put the dread of thee and the fear of thee upon the peoples that are under the whole heaven, who, when they hear the report of thee, shall tremble, and be in anguish because of thee.'
Danes bom začel pred teboj spuščati grozo in strah nad narode, ki so pod celotnim nebom, ki bodo slišali poročilo o tebi in bodo trepetali in bodo zaradi tebe v tesnobi.‹
26 And I sent messengers out of the wilderness of Kedemoth unto Sihon king of Heshbon with words of peace, saying:
In odposlal sem poslance iz divjine Kedemót k Sihónu, kralju v Hešbónu, z besedami miru, rekoč:
27 'Let me pass through thy land; I will go along by the highway, I will neither turn unto the right hand nor to the left.
›Naj grem skozi tvojo deželo. Šel bom vzdolž visoke poti, ne bom se obrnil niti k desni roki niti k levi.
28 Thou shalt sell me food for money, that I may eat; and give me water for money, that I may drink; only let me pass through on my feet;
Hrano mi boš prodajal za denar, da bom lahko jedel in vodo mi [boš] dajal za denar, da bom lahko pil, samo na svojih stopalih bom šel skozi
29 as the children of Esau that dwell in Seir, and the Moabites that dwell in Ar, did unto me; until I shall pass over the Jordan into the land which the LORD our God giveth us.'
(kakor so mi storili Ezavovi otroci, ki prebivajo v Seírju in Moábci, ki prebivajo v Aru), dokler ne bom šel čez Jordan v deželo, ki nam jo daje Gospod, naš Bog.‹
30 But Sihon king of Heshbon would not let us pass by him; for the LORD thy God hardened his spirit, and made his heart obstinate, that He might deliver him into thy hand, as appeareth this day.
Toda Sihón, kralj v Hešbónu, nam ni dovolil iti mimo njega, kajti Gospod, tvoj Bog, je zakrknil njegovega duha in njegovo srce naredil trdovratno, da bi ga lahko izročil v tvojo roko, kakor se kaže ta dan.
31 And the LORD said unto me: 'Behold, I have begun to deliver up Sihon and his land before thee; begin to possess his land.'
Gospod mi je rekel: ›Glej, pred teboj sem ti začel dajati Sihóna in njegovo deželo. Začni jo jemati v last, da boš lahko podedoval njegovo deželo.‹
32 Then Sihon came out against us, he and all his people, unto battle at Jahaz.
Potem je zoper nas prišel ven Sihón, on in njegovo ljudstvo, da se borijo pri Jahacu.
33 And the LORD our God delivered him up before us; and we smote him, and his sons, and all his people.
Gospod, naš Bog, ga je pred nami izročil in udarili smo njega, njegove sinove in vse njegovo ljudstvo.
34 And we took all his cities at that time, and utterly destroyed every city, the men, and the women, and the little ones; we left none remaining;
Ob tistem času smo zavzeli vsa njegova mesta in popolnoma uničili moške, ženske in malčke iz vsakega mesta. Nobenega nismo pustili ostati.
35 only the cattle we took for a prey unto ourselves, with the spoil of the cities which we had taken.
Samo živino smo si vzeli za plen in ukradeno blago mest, ki smo jih zavzeli.
36 From Aroer, which is on the edge of the valley of Arnon, and from the city that is in the valley, even unto Gilead, there was not a city too high for us: the LORD our God delivered up all before us.
Od Aroêrja, ki je pri bregu reke Arnón in od mesta, ki je pri reki, celo do Gileáda, tam ni bilo niti enega mesta premočnega za nas. Gospod, naš Bog, jih je vsa izročil nam.
37 Only to the land of the children of Ammon thou camest not near; all the side of the river Jabbok, and the cities of the hill-country, and wheresoever the LORD our God forbade us.
Samo v deželo Amónovih otrok nisi prišel niti v noben kraj reke Jabók niti v gorska mesta niti v katerakoli, ki nam jih je Gospod, naš Bog, prepovedal.
