< Deuteronomy 11 >
1 Therefore you shall love the LORD your God, and keep his instructions, and his statutes, and his ordinances, and his commandments, always.
Zato boš torej ljubil Gospoda, svojega Boga in dnevno ohranjal njegovo zadolžitev, njegove zakone, njegove sodbe in njegove zapovedi.
2 Know this day: for I do not speak with your children who have not known, and who have not seen the chastisement of the LORD your God, his greatness, his mighty hand, and his outstretched arm,
In vedi ta dan, kajti nisem govoril z otroki, ki niso vedeli in ki niso videli kaznovanja Gospoda, svojega Boga, njegove veličine, njegove mogočne roke, njegovega iztegnjenega lakta,
3 and his signs, and his works, which he did in the midst of Egypt to Pharaoh the king of Egypt, and to all his land;
njegovih čudežev in njegovih dejanj, ki jih je v sredi Egipta storil faraonu, egiptovskemu kralju in vsej njegovi deželi
4 and what he did to the army of Egypt, to their horses, and to their chariots; how he made the water of the Red Sea to overflow them as they pursued after you, and how the LORD has destroyed them to this day;
in kaj je on storil egiptovski vojski, njihovim konjem in njihovim bojnim vozovom; kako je vodo Rdečega morja primoral, da jih preplavi, medtem ko so vas zasledovali in kako jih je Gospod uničil do današnjega dne,
5 and what he did to you in the wilderness, until you came to this place;
in kaj vam je storil v divjini, dokler niste prišli na ta kraj,
6 and what he did to Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, the son of Reuben; how the earth opened its mouth, and swallowed them up, and their households, and their tents, and every living thing that followed them, in the midst of all Israel:
in kaj je storil Datánu in Abirámu, sinovoma Rubenovega sina Eliába; kako je zemlja odprla svoja usta in požrla njiju, njune družine, njune šotore in vse njuno imetje, ki je bilo v njuni posesti, v sredi vsega Izraela,
7 but your eyes have seen all the great work of the LORD which he did.
toda vaše oči so videle vsa velika Gospodova dejanja, ki jih je storil.
8 Therefore you shall keep every commandment which I command you this day, that you may be strong, and multiply, and go in and possess the land, where you go over to possess it;
Zatorej boste ohranjali vse zapovedi, ki sem vam jih ta dan zapovedal, da boste lahko močni in vstopite in se polastite dežele, kamor greste, da jo vzamete v last
9 and that you may prolong your days in the land, which the LORD swore to your fathers to give to them and to their descendants, a land flowing with milk and honey.
in da boste lahko podaljšali svoje dneve v deželi, ki jo je Gospod prisegel vašim očetom, da jo da njim in njihovemu semenu, deželo, kjer tečeta mleko in med.
10 For the land, where you go in to possess it, isn't as the land of Egypt, that you came out from, where you sowed your seed, and watered it with your feet, as a garden of herbs;
Kajti dežela, kamor vstopaš, da jo vzameš v last, ni kakor egiptovska dežela, od koder ste izšli, kjer si sejal svoje seme in jo s svojim stopalom namakal kakor zeliščni vrt,
11 but the land, where you go over to possess it, is a land of hills and valleys which drinks water of the rain of the sky,
temveč je dežela, kamor greste, da jo vzamete v last, dežela hribov in dolin in pitne vode od dežja z neba,
12 a land which the LORD your God cares for: the eyes of the LORD your God are always on it, from the beginning of the year even to the end of the year.
dežela, za katero skrbi Gospod, tvoj Bog; oči Gospoda, tvojega Boga, so vedno na njej, od začetka leta, celó do konca leta.
13 It shall happen, if you shall listen diligently to my commandments which I command you this day, to love the LORD your God, and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul,
In zgodilo se bo, če boste marljivo prisluhnili mojim zapovedim, ki sem vam jih ta dan zapovedal, da ljubite Gospoda, svojega Boga in da mu služite z vsem svojim srcem in z vso svojo dušo,
14 that I will give the rain of your land in its season, the former rain and the latter rain, that you may gather in your grain, and your new wine, and your oil.
da vam bom dal dežja vaši deželi v njegovem pravšnjem obdobju, prvi dež in pozni dež, da boš lahko zbral svoje žito in svoje vino in svoje olje.
15 I will give grass in your fields for your livestock, and you shall eat and be full.
In poslal bom travo na tvoja polja za tvojo živino, da boš lahko jedel in bil sit.
16 Be careful, lest your heart be deceived, and you turn aside, and serve other gods, and worship them;
Pazite nase, da vaše srce ne bo zavedeno in se odvrnete in služite drugim bogovom in jih obožujete
17 and the anger of the LORD be kindled against you, and he shut up the sky, so that there shall be no rain, and the land shall not yield its fruit; and you perish quickly from off the good land which the LORD gives you.
in bi se potem zoper vas vžgal Gospodov bes in on zapre nebo, da tam ne bo dežja in da dežela ne obrodi svojega sadu in da se ne bi hitro pogubili iz dobre dežele, ki vam jo daje Gospod.
18 Therefore you shall lay up these my words in your heart and in your soul; and you shall bind them for a sign on your hand, and they shall be for symbols between your eyes.
Zatorej boste te moje besede položili v svoje srce in v svojo dušo in si jih privezali za znamenje na roko, da bodo lahko kakor načelki med vašimi očmi.
19 You shall teach them your children, talking of them, when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise up.
In vi jih boste učili svoje otroke, govoreč o njih, ko sediš v svoji hiši in ko hodiš po poti, ko se uležeš in ko vstajaš.
20 You shall write them on the door posts of your house, and on your gates;
Napisal jih boš na podboje svoje hiše in na svoja velika vrata,
21 that your days may be multiplied, and the days of your children, in the land which the LORD swore to your fathers to give them, as the days of the heavens above the earth.
da bodo vaši dnevi lahko pomnoženi in dnevi vaših otrok v deželi, ki jo je Gospod prisegel vašim očetom, da jim jo da, kakor dneve nebes na zemlji.
22 For if you shall diligently keep all this commandment which I command you to do, to love the LORD your God, to walk in all his ways, and to cling to him;
Kajti če boste marljivo varovali vse te zapovedi, ki sem vam jih zapovedal, da jih storite, da ljubite Gospoda, svojega Boga, da hodite po vseh njegovih poteh in da se ga trdno držite,
23 then will the LORD drive out all these nations from before you, and you shall dispossess nations greater and mightier than yourselves.
potem bo Gospod vse te narode izgnal izpred vas in vi se boste polastili večjih narodov in mogočnejših, kakor ste vi.
24 Every place whereon the sole of your foot shall tread shall be yours: from the wilderness, and Lebanon, from the river, the river Perath, even to the western sea shall be your border.
Vsak kraj, na katerega bodo stopili podplati vaših stopal, bo vaš; od divjine in Libanona, od reke, reke Evfrata, celo do najbolj oddaljenega morja bo vaša pokrajina.
25 No man shall be able to stand before you: the LORD your God shall lay the fear of you and the dread of you on all the land that you shall tread on, as he has spoken to you.
Tam noben človek ne bo mogel obstati pred vami, kajti Gospod, vaš Bog, bo položil strah pred vami in grozo nad vso deželo, po kateri boste stopali, kakor vam je rekel.
26 Look, I set before you this day a blessing and a curse:
Glejte, ta dan sem pred vas postavil blagoslov in prekletstvo.
27 the blessing, if you shall listen to the commandments of the LORD your God, which I command you this day;
Blagoslov, če ubogate zapovedi Gospoda, svojega Boga, ki sem vam jih ta dan zapovedal
28 and the curse, if you shall not listen to the commandments of the LORD your God, but turn aside out of the way which I command you this day, to go after other gods, which you have not known.
in prekletstvo, če ne boste ubogali zapovedi Gospoda, svojega Boga, temveč se boste odvrnili iz poti, ki sem vam jo ta dan zapovedal, da greste za drugimi bogovi, ki jih niste poznali.
29 It shall happen, when the LORD your God shall bring you into the land where you go to possess it, that you shall set the blessing on Mount Gerizim, and the curse on Mount Ebal.
In zgodilo se bo, ko te bo Gospod, tvoj Bog, privedel v deželo, kamor greš, da jo vzameš v last, da boš položil blagoslov na goro Garizím in prekletstvo na goro Ebál.
30 Aren't they beyond the Jordan, behind the way of the going down of the sun, in the land of the Canaanites who dwell in the Arabah, over against Gilgal, beside the oaks of Moreh?
Ali nista na drugi strani Jordana, ob poti, kjer sonce zahaja v kánaanski deželi, ki prebivajo v nerodovitni ravnini nasproti Gilgálu, poleg Moréjevih ravnin?
31 For you are to pass over the Jordan to go in to possess the land which the LORD your God gives you, and you shall possess it, and dwell in it.
Kajti šli boste čez Jordan, da vstopite, da vzamete v last deželo, ki vam jo daje Gospod, vaš Bog in vzeli jo boste v last in prebivali v njej.
32 You shall observe to do all the statutes and the ordinances which I set before you this day.
In obeležili boste, da storite vse zakone in sodbe, ki sem jih ta dan postavil pred vas.
