Deuteronomy 1

1 These are the words which Moses spoke to all Israel beyond the Jordan in the wilderness, in the Arabah over against Suph, 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 It is eleven days' journey from Horeb by the way of Mount Seir to Kadesh Barnea.

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

3 It happened in the fortieth year, in the eleventh month, on the first day of the month, that Moses spoke to the children of Israel, according to all that YHWH had given him in commandment to 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 struck Sihon the king of the Amorites, who lived in Heshbon, and Og the king of Bashan, who lived in Ashtaroth and 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 Beyond the 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 "YHWH our God spoke to us in Horeb, saying, You have lived long enough in this mountain:

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

7 turn, and take your journey, and go to the hill country of the Amorites, and to all the places near there, in the Arabah, in the hill country, and in the lowland, and in the Negev, and by the sea coast, the land of the Canaanites, and Lebanon, as far as the great river, the river Perath.

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 Look, I have set the land before you: go in and possess the land which I swore to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give to them and to their descendants 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 I spoke to 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 YHWH your God has multiplied you, and look, you are this day as the stars of the sky for multitude.

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

11 YHWH, the God of your fathers, make you a thousand times as many as you are, and bless you, as he has 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 encumbrance, and your burden, and your strife?

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

13 Take wise men of understanding and well known according to your tribes, and I will make them heads over you."

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

14 You answered me, and said, "The thing which you have spoken is good to do."

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

15 So I took the heads of your tribes, wise men, and known, and made them heads over you, captains of thousands, and captains of hundreds, and captains of fifties, and captains of tens, and officers, according to 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 I commanded your judges at that time, saying, "Hear cases between your brothers, and judge righteously between a man and his brother, and the foreigner who is living 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 You shall not show partiality in judgment; you shall hear the small and the great alike; you shall not be afraid of the face of man; for the judgment is God's. The case that is too hard for you, you shall bring to 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 I commanded you at that time all the things which you should do.

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

19 We traveled from Horeb, and went through all that great and terrible wilderness which you saw, by the way to the hill country of the Amorites, as YHWH 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 I said to you, "You have come to the hill country of the Amorites, which YHWH our God gives to us.

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

21 Look, YHWH your God has set the land before you: go up, take possession, as YHWH, the God of your fathers, has spoken to you; do not be afraid, neither be dismayed."

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 You came near to me everyone of you, and said, "Let us send men before us, that they may search the land for us, and bring us word again of the way by which we must go up, and the cities to which 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 The thing pleased me well; and I took twelve men of you, one man for every tribe:

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

24 and they turned and went up into the hill country, and came to the Valley of Eshcol, and spied it out.

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

25 They took of the fruit of the land in their hands, and brought it down to us, and brought us word again, and said, "It is a good land which YHWH our God gives to 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 Yet you wouldn't go up, but rebelled against the commandment of YHWH your God:

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

27 and you murmured in your tents, and said, "Because YHWH hated us, he has 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 Where are we going up? Our brothers have made our heart to melt, saying, 'The people are greater and taller than we; the cities are great and fortified up to the sky; and moreover we have seen the sons of the Anakim 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 to you, "Do not dread, neither be afraid of them.

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

30 YHWH your God who goes before you, he will 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 you have seen how that YHWH your God bore you, as a man does bear his son, in all the way that you went, until you came to 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 you did not believe YHWH your God,

Vendar v tej stvari niste verovali Gospodu, svojemu Bogu,

33 who went before you in the way, to seek you out a place to pitch your tents in, in fire by night, to show you by what way you should go, and in the 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 YHWH heard the voice of your words, and was angry, and swore, saying,

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

35 "Surely not one of these men of this evil generation shall see the good land, which I swore to give to 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 except Caleb the son of Jephunneh: he shall see it; and to him will I give the land that he has trodden on, and to his children, because he has wholly followed YHWH."

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 YHWH was angry with me for your sakes, saying, "You also shall not go in there:

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

38 Joshua the son of Nun, who stands before you, he shall go in there. Encourage him, because he will 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, whom you said should be a prey, and your children, who this day have no knowledge of good or evil, they shall go in there, and to 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, and take your journey into the wilderness by the way to the Red Sea."

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

41 Then you answered and said to me, "We have sinned against YHWH our God, we will go up and fight, according to all that YHWH our God commanded us." Every man of you put on his weapons of war, and presumed to go up into the hill country.

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 YHWH said to me, "Tell them, 'Do not go up, neither fight; for I am not among you; lest you be struck 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 spoke to you, and you did not listen; but you rebelled against the commandment of YHWH, and were presumptuous, and went up into the hill country.

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

44 The Amorites, who lived in that hill country, came out against you, and chased you, as bees do, and beat you down in Seir, even to 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 You returned and wept before YHWH; but YHWH did not listen to your voice, nor gave ear to you.

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

46 So you stayed in Kadesh many days, according to the days that you remained.

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