Deuteronomy 1

1 These [be] the words which Moses spake unto all Israel on this side Jordan in the wilderness, in the plain over against the Red [sea], between Paran, and Tophel, and Laban, and Hazeroth, and Dizahab.

To so besede, ki jih je Mojzes govoril vsemu Izraelu na tej strani Jordana, v divjini, na ravnini nasproti Rdečemu morju, med Paránom, Tofelom, Labánom, Hacerótom in Di Zahábom.

2 ([There are] eleven days’ [journey] from Horeb by the way of mount Seir unto Kadesh-barnea.)

( Tam je enajstdnevno potovanje od Horeba, po poti gorovja Seír do Kadeš Barnée.)

3 And it came to pass in the fortieth year, in the eleventh month, on the first [day] of the month, [that] Moses spake unto the children of Israel, according unto all that the LORD had given him in commandment unto them;

V štiridesetem letu, v enajstem mesecu, na prvi dan meseca, se je pripetilo, da je Mojzes spregovoril Izraelovim otrokom glede vsega, kar mu je Gospod dal njim v zapoved,

4 After he had slain Sihon the king of the Amorites, which dwelt in Heshbon, and Og the king of Bashan, which dwelt at Astaroth in Edrei:

potem, ko je umoril amoréjskega kralja Sihóna, ki je prebival v Hešbónu in bašánskega kralja Oga, ki je prebival pri Aštarótu v Edréiju,

5 On this side Jordan, in the land of Moab, began Moses to declare this law, saying,

na tej strani Jordana, v moábski deželi, je Mojzes začel oznanjati to postavo, rekoč:

6 The LORD our God spake unto us in Horeb, saying, Ye have dwelt long enough in this mount:

» Gospod, naš Bog, nam je spregovoril na Horebu, rekoč: ›Dovolj dolgo ste prebivali na tej gori.

7 Turn you, and take your journey, and go to the mount of the Amorites, and unto all [the places] nigh thereunto, in the plain, in the hills, and in the vale, and in the south, and by the sea side, to the land of the Canaanites, and unto Lebanon, unto the great river, the river Euphrates.

Obrnite se in pojdite na potovanje in pojdite h gori Amoréjcev in k vsem krajem blizu nje, na ravnini, na hribih, v dolini, na jugu in ob morski obali, k deželi Kánaancev in k Libanonu, k veliki reki, reki Evfrat.

8 Behold, I have set the land before you: go in and possess the land which the LORD sware unto your fathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, to give unto them and to their seed after them.

Glejte, pred vas sem postavil deželo. Vstopite in vzemite v last deželo, ki jo je Gospod prisegel vašim očetom, Abrahamu, Izaku in Jakobu, da jo da njim in njihovemu semenu za njimi.‹

9 And I spake unto you at that time, saying, I am not able to bear you myself alone:

Ob tistem času sem vam govoril, rekoč: ›Nisem vas zmožen nositi sam.

10 The LORD your God hath multiplied you, and, behold, ye [are] this day as the stars of heaven for multitude.

Gospod, vaš Bog, vas je pomnožil in glejte, vas je ta dan kakor zvezd neba zaradi množice.

11 (The LORD God of your fathers make you a thousand times so many more as ye [are], and bless you, as he hath promised you!)

( Gospod, Bog vaših očetov, naj vas naredi tisočkrat toliko, kot vas je in vas blagoslovi, kot vam je obljubil!)

12 How can I myself alone bear your cumbrance, and your burden, and your strife?

Kako lahko jaz sam nosim vašo obremenitev, vaše breme in vaš prepir?

13 Take you wise men, and understanding, and known among your tribes, and I will make them rulers over you.

Vzemite si modre može, razumne in poznane med svojimi rodovi in jaz jih bom naredil voditelje nad vami.‹

14 And ye answered me, and said, The thing which thou hast spoken [is] good [for us] to do.

Odgovorili ste mi in rekli: ›Stvar, ki si jo govoril, je za nas dobra, da [jo] storimo.‹

15 So I took the chief of your tribes, wise men, and known, and made them heads over you, captains over thousands, and captains over hundreds, and captains over fifties, and captains over tens, and officers among your tribes.

Tako sem vzel vodilne izmed vaših rodov, modre može in poznane in jih naredil poglavarje nad vami, tisočnike, stotnike, petdesetnike, desetnike in častnike med vašimi rodovi.

16 And I charged your judges at that time, saying, Hear [the causes] between your brethren, and judge righteously between [every] man and his brother, and the stranger [that is] with him.

Ob tistem času sem zadolžil vaše sodnike, rekoč: ›Prisluhnite pravdam med vašimi brati in pravično sodite med vsakim možem, njegovim bratom in tujcem, ki je z njim.

17 Ye shall not respect persons in judgment; [but] ye shall hear the small as well as the great; ye shall not be afraid of the face of man; for the judgment [is] God’s: and the cause that is too hard for you, bring [it] unto me, and I will hear it.

Pri sodbi se ne boste ozirali na osebe; temveč boste prisluhnili tako majhnemu kakor velikemu. Ne boste se bali obličja človeka, kajti razsodba je Božja. Zadevo pa, ki je za vas pretežka, to prinesite k meni in ji bom prisluhnil.‹

18 And I commanded you at that time all the things which ye should do.

Ob tistem času sem vam zapovedal vse stvari, ki naj bi jih storili.

19 And when we departed from Horeb, we went through all that great and terrible wilderness, which ye saw by the way of the mountain of the Amorites, as the LORD our God commanded us; and we came to Kadesh-barnea.

Ko smo odpotovali od Horeba, smo odšli skozi vso to veliko in strašno divjino, ki ste jo videli po poti gore Amoréjcev, kakor nam je Gospod, naš Bog, zapovedal, in prišli smo do Kadeš Barnée.

20 And I said unto you, Ye are come unto the mountain of the Amorites, which the LORD our God doth give unto us.

Rekel sem vam: ›Prišli ste h gori Amoréjcev, ki nam jo daje Gospod, naš Bog.

21 Behold, the LORD thy God hath set the land before thee: go up [and] possess [it], as the LORD God of thy fathers hath said unto thee; fear not, neither be discouraged.

Glej, Gospod, tvoj Bog je predte postavil deželo. Pojdi gor in si jo vzemi v last, kakor ti je rekel Gospod, Bog tvojih očetov. Ne boj se niti ne izgubi poguma.‹

22 And ye came near unto me every one of you, and said, We will send men before us, and they shall search us out the land, and bring us word again by what way we must go up, and into what cities we shall come.

Približali ste si mi, vsak izmed vas in rekli: ›Pred nami bomo poslali može in preiskali bodo deželo in nam ponovno prinesli besedo, po kateri poti moramo iti gor in v katera mesta bomo prišli.‹

23 And the saying pleased me well: and I took twelve men of you, one of a tribe:

Govor mi je ugajal, in izmed vas sem vzel dvanajst mož, enega iz rodu

24 And they turned and went up into the mountain, and came unto the valley of Eshcol, and searched it out.

in obrnili so se in odšli gor na goro in prišli v dolino Eškól in jo preiskali.

25 And they took of the fruit of the land in their hands, and brought [it] down unto us, and brought us word again, and said, [It is] a good land which the LORD our God doth give us.

V svoje roke so vzeli od sadu dežele in to prinesli dol k nam in nam ponovno prinesli besedo ter rekli: › To je dobra dežela, ki nam jo daje Gospod, naš Bog.‹

26 Notwithstanding ye would not go up, but rebelled against the commandment of the LORD your God:

Vendar niste hoteli iti gor, temveč [ste se] uprli zoper zapoved Gospoda, svojega Boga.

27 And ye murmured in your tents, and said, Because the LORD hated us, he hath brought us forth out of the land of Egypt, to deliver us into the hand of the Amorites, to destroy us.

V svojih šotorih ste godrnjali in rekli: ›Zato, ker nas je Gospod sovražil, nas je privedel naprej, ven iz egiptovske dežele, da nas izroči v roke Amoréjcev, da nas uničijo.

28 Whither shall we go up? our brethren have discouraged our heart, saying, The people [is] greater and taller than we; the cities [are] great and walled up to heaven; and moreover we have seen the sons of the Anakims there.

Kam naj gremo gor? Naši bratje so našemu srcu vzeli pogum, rekoč: ›Ljudstvo je večje in višje, kakor smo mi. Mesta so velika in ograjena do neba, in poleg tega smo tam videli Anákove sinove.‹‹

29 Then I said unto you, Dread not, neither be afraid of them.

Potem sem vam rekel: ›Ne bodite zaprepadeni niti se jih ne bojte.

30 The LORD your God which goeth before you, he shall fight for you, according to all that he did for you in Egypt before your eyes;

Gospod, vaš Bog, ki gre pred vami, se bo boril za vas, glede na vse, kar je pred vašimi očmi za vas storil v Egiptu

31 And in the wilderness, where thou hast seen how that the LORD thy God bare thee, as a man doth bear his son, in all the way that ye went, until ye came into this place.

in v divjini, kjer si videl, kako te je nosil Gospod, tvoj Bog, kakor mož nosi svojega sina, na vsej poti, kamor ste odšli, dokler niste prišli na ta kraj.‹

32 Yet in this thing ye did not believe the LORD your God,

Vendar v tej stvari niste verovali Gospodu, svojemu Bogu,

33 Who went in the way before you, to search you out a place to pitch your tents [in], in fire by night, to shew you by what way ye should go, and in a cloud by day.

ki je pred vami odšel na pot, da vam poišče prostor, da na njem postavite svoje šotore, v ognju ponoči, da vam pokaže po kateri pot naj bi šli, in v oblaku podnevi.

34 And the LORD heard the voice of your words, and was wroth, and sware, saying,

Gospod je slišal glas vaših besed in bil ogorčen ter prisegel, rekoč:

35 Surely there shall not one of these men of this evil generation see that good land, which I sware to give unto your fathers,

›Zagotovo ne bo nobeden izmed teh mož tega zlega rodu videl te dobre dežele, za katero sem prisegel, da jo dam vašim očetom,

36 Save Caleb the son of Jephunneh; he shall see it, and to him will I give the land that he hath trodden upon, and to his children, because he hath wholly followed the LORD.

razen Jefunéjevega sina Kaléba; on jo bo videl in njemu bom dal deželo, po kateri je stopal in njegovim otrokom, ker je v celoti sledil Gospodu.‹

37 Also the LORD was angry with me for your sakes, saying, Thou also shalt not go in thither.

Prav tako je bil Gospod zaradi vas jezen name, rekoč: ›Ti tudi ne boš vstopil vanjo.

38 [But] Joshua the son of Nun, which standeth before thee, he shall go in thither: encourage him: for he shall cause Israel to inherit it.

Toda Nunov sin Józue, ki stoji pred teboj, on bo vstopil tja. Ohrabri ga, kajti Izraelu bo povzročil, da jo podeduje.

39 Moreover your little ones, which ye said should be a prey, and your children, which in that day had no knowledge between good and evil, they shall go in thither, and unto them will I give it, and they shall possess it.

Poleg tega bodo vaši malčki, za katere ste rekli, da bi morali biti plen in vaši otroci, ki na ta dan niso imeli spoznanja med dobrim in zlom, oni bodo vstopili tja in njim jo bom dal in oni jo bodo vzeli v last.

40 But [as for] you, turn you, and take your journey into the wilderness by the way of the Red sea.

Toda kar se tiče vas, se obrnite in pojdite na potovanje v divjino, po poti Rdečega morja.‹

41 Then ye answered and said unto me, We have sinned against the LORD, we will go up and fight, according to all that the LORD our God commanded us. And when ye had girded on every man his weapons of war, ye were ready to go up into the hill.

Potem ste mi odgovorili in rekli: ›Grešili smo zoper Gospoda, šli bomo gor in se borili, glede na vse, kar nam je zapovedal Gospod, naš Bog.‹ In ko ste si opasali vsak mož svoje bojno orožje, ste bili pripravljeni, da greste gor na hrib.

42 And the LORD said unto me, Say unto them, Go not up, neither fight; for I [am] not among you; lest ye be smitten before your enemies.

Gospod mi je rekel: ›Reci jim: ›Ne pojdite gor niti se ne bojujte, kajti jaz nisem med vami, da ne bi bili udarjeni pred svojimi sovražniki.‹‹

43 So I spake unto you; and ye would not hear, but rebelled against the commandment of the LORD, and went presumptuously up into the hill.

Tako sem vam govoril, pa niste hoteli slišati, temveč [ste se] uprli zoper Gospodovo zapoved in prepotentno odšli na hrib.

44 And the Amorites, which dwelt in that mountain, came out against you, and chased you, as bees do, and destroyed you in Seir, [even] unto Hormah.

Amoréjci, ki prebivajo na tej gori, so prišli ven zoper vas in vas preganjali, kakor počnejo čebele in vas uničili v Seírju, celó do Horme.

45 And ye returned and wept before the LORD; but the LORD would not hearken to your voice, nor give ear unto you.

Vrnili ste se in jokali pred Gospodom, toda Gospod ni hotel prisluhniti vašemu glasu niti nagniti ušesa k vam.

46 So ye abode in Kadesh many days, according unto the days that ye abode [there].

Tako ste mnogo dni ostali v Kadešu, glede na dneve, ko ste ostajali tam.
