Joshua 17
1 And then came the lot for the tribe of Menasseh; for he was the first-born of Joseph: to wit, for Machir the first-born of Menasseh, the father of Gil'ad; because he was a man of war, therefore he obtained Gil'ad and Bashan.
Ždrijebom je dopao i dio plemenu Manašeovu, jer je Manaše bio prvenac Josipov. Makiru, prvencu Manašeovu, ocu Gileadovu - bijaše on ratnik bez premca - pripade Gilead i Bašan.
2 There was also a lot for the rest of the children of Menasseh after their families; for the children of Abi'ezer, and for the children of Chelek, and for the children of Assriel, and for the children of Shechem, and for the children of Chepher, and for the children of Shemida': these were the male children of Menasseh the son of Joseph after their families.
Dobili su svoj dio i ostali sinovi Manašeovi po svojim porodicama: sinovi Abiezerovi, sinovi Helekovi, sinovi Asrielovi; sinovi Šekemovi, sinovi Heferovi i sinovi Šemidini. To su muški potomci Manašea, sina Josipova, po svojim porodicama.
3 But Zelophchad, the son of Chepher, the son of Gil'ad, the son of Machir, the son of Menasseh, had no sons, but only daughters, and these are the names of his daughters, Machlah, and No'ah, Choglah, Milcah, and Tirzah.
A Selofhad, sin Hefera, sina Gileada, sina Makira, sina Manašeova, nije imao sinova nego samo kćeri. Evo im imena: Mahla, Noa, Hogla, Milka i Tirsa.
4 And they came near before Elazar the priest, and before Joshua the son of Nun, and before the princes, saying, The Lord commanded Moses to give unto us an inheritance among our brethren. And he gave them, according to the order of the Lord, an inheritance among the brethren of their father.
One dođoše pred svećenika Eleazara i pred Jošuu, sina Nunova, i pred glavare govoreći: “Jahve je zapovjedio Mojsiju da se i nama dade baština među našom braćom.” I dadoše im po Jahvinoj zapovijedi baštinu među braćom njihova oca.
5 And there fell ten portions of Menasseh, beside the lands of Gil'ad and Bashan, which were on the other side of the Jordan;
Tako je dopalo Manašeu deset dijelova, povrh gileadske i bašanske zemlje, koje su s onu stranu Jordana.
6 Because the daughters of Menasseh obtained an inheritance among his sons: and the land of Gil'ad belonged to the rest of the sons of Manasseh.
Kćeri Manašeove dobiše baštinu među njegovim sinovima, a zemlja gileadska pripala je drugim sinovima Manašeovim.
7 And the boundary of Menasseh was from Asher to Michmethath, that lieth before Shechem; and the boundary went along on the right hand unto the inhabitants of 'En-tappuach.
Međa je Manašeova išla od Ašera do Mikmetata, koji leži nasuprot Šekemu, a zatim zavijala desno prema Jašibu na izvoru Tapuahu.
8 To Menasseh belonged the land of Tappuach; but Tappuach on the borders of Menasseh belonged to the children of Ephraim;
Pokrajina Tapuah pripadaše Manašeu, ali sam Tapuah na međi Manašeovoj pripadaše sinovima Efrajimovim.
9 And the boundary descended unto the brook Kanah, southward of the brook; these cities belonging to Ephraim are in the midst of the cities of Menasseh; and the boundary of Menasseh was on the north side of the river, and its terminations were toward the sea:
Međa je silazila do potoka Kane. Južno od potoka bili su i ovi gradovi što su Efrajimovim sinovima pripadali između Manašeovih gradova; a zemlja se Manašeova nalazila na sjeveru i izbijala na more.
10 Southward it was Ephraim's, and northward it was Menasseh's, and the sea was [there] his boundary; and on Asher they touched on the north, and on Issachar on the east.
Područje s juga pripadalo je Efrajimu, na sjeveru Manašeu, a more im bi međa; na sjeveru su graničili s Ašerom, a s Jisakarom na istoku.
11 And to Menasseh belonged in Issachar and in Asher Beth-shean and its towns, and Yible'am and its towns, together with the inhabitants of Dor and its towns, and the inhabitants of 'En-dor and its towns, and the inhabitants of Ta'anach and its towns, and the inhabitants of Megiddo and its towns, namely the three districts.
Manašeu pripadahu u Jisakaru i Ašeru: Bet-Šean sa svojim selima, Jibleam sa svojim selima, stanovnici Dora sa svojim selima, stanovnici En-Dora sa svojim selima, stanovnici Taanaka sa svojim selima, stanovnici Megida sa svojim selima; dakle: tri područja.
12 Yet the children of Menasseh could not drive out the inhabitants of these cities; but the Canaanites succeeded to dwell in this land;
Ali Manašeovi sinovi nisu mogli osvojiti te gradove i zato su Kanaanci ostali u tom kraju.
13 Yet it came to pass, when the children of Israel were become strong, that they put the Canaanites to tribute; but they did not drive them out.
Ali kad su ojačali sinovi Izraelovi, nametnuše Kanaancima tlaku, ali ih nisu uspjeli protjerati.
14 And the children of Joseph spoke unto Joshua, saying, Why hast thou given me but one lot and one portion as an inheritance, seeing I am a numerous people, to which extent the Lord hath hitherto blessed me?
Obrate se tada Josipovi sinovi Jošui i upitaju: “Zašto si nam dao u baštinu prema jednom ždrijebu, samo jedan dio, kad smo mnogobrojni i Jahve nas dosad blagoslivljao?”
15 And Joshua said unto them, If thou art a numerous people, then get thee up to the wood country, and cut down [a space] for thyself there in the land of the Perizzites and of the Rephaim, if the mountain of Ephraim be too narrow for thee.
Jošua im odgovori: “Kad ste narod mnogobrojan, pođite u šumu i krčite ondje sebi zemlje u periškoj i refaimskoj krajini, ako vam je pretijesna gora Efrajimova.”
16 And the children of Joseph said, The mountain will not be enough for us; and chariots of iron are belonging to all the Canaanites that dwell in the land of the valley, to those who are at Beth-shean and its towns, and to those who are in the valley of Yizre'el.
A sinovi Josipovi rekoše: “Gora nam ova neće biti dosta, a svi Kanaanci koji žive u ravnici imaju željezna kola, oni što su u Bet-Šeanu i selima njegovim i oni koji su u dolini jizreelskoj.”
17 And Joshua said unto the house of Joseph, to Ephraim and to Menasseh, as followeth, Thou art a numerous people, and hast great power; thou shalt not have one lot only;
Tada odgovori Jošua domu Josipovu, i Efrajimu i Manašeu: “Vi ste brojan narod i imate silnu snagu. Zato nećeš dobiti samo jedan ždrijeb:
18 But the mountain shall be thine; it is indeed a wood, yet thou canst cut it down; and the terminations of it shall be thine; for thou shalt drive out the Canaanites, though they have iron chariots, though they be strong.
neka gora bude tvoja. Ako je šumovita, iskrči je pa će obronci biti posjed doma tvoga. Istjerat ćeš sigurno Kanaance ako i imaju željezna kola, ako i jesu jaki.”
