< Numbers 31 >

1 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
Jahve reče Mojsiju:
2 Avenge the children of Israel of the Midianites: afterward shalt thou be gathered unto thy people.
“Iskali osvetu Izraelaca na Midjancima, a poslije toga pridružit ćeš se svojim precima.”
3 And Moses spake unto the people, saying, Arm ye men from among you for the war, that they may go against Midian, to execute the LORD’S vengeance on Midian.
A Mojsije reče narodu: “Opremite ljude između sebe za pohod na Midjance,
4 Of every tribe a thousand, throughout all the tribes of Israel, shall ye send to the war.
da na Midjancima izvrše Jahvinu osvetu. Na vojnu opremite po jednu tisuću od svakoga izraelskog plemena!”
5 So there were delivered, out of the thousands of Israel, a thousand of every tribe, twelve thousand armed for war.
I tako su iz izraelskih porodica - tisuću po plemenu - za vojnu skupili dvanaest tisuća.
6 And Moses sent them, a thousand of every tribe, to the war, them and Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest, to the war, with the vessels of the sanctuary and the trumpets for the alarm in his hand.
Posla ih Mojsije - tisuću po plemenu - na vojnu zajedno s Pinhasom, sinom svećenika Eleazara. On je nosio posvećene stvari i trube.
7 And they warred against Midian, as the LORD commanded Moses; and they slew every male.
Oni zavojuju na Midjance, kako je Jahve naredio Mojsiju, i pobiju sve muškarce.
8 And they slew the kings of Midian with the rest of their slain; Evi, and Rekem, and Zur, and Hur, and Reba, the five kings of Midian: Balaam also the son of Beor they slew with the sword.
Među ostalima pobili su i midjanske kraljeve: Evija, Rekema, Sura, Hura i Rebu - pet midjanskih kraljeva. Mačem pogube i Bileama, Beorova sina.
9 And the children of Israel took captive the women of Midian and their little ones; and all their cattle, and all their flocks, and all their goods, they took for a prey.
Odvedu tada Izraelci u ropstvo midjanske žene s njihovom djecom i svu njihovu stoku, krupnu i sitnu, i zaplijene sve njihovo blago.
10 And all their cities in the places wherein they dwelt, and all their encampments, they burnt with fire.
Ognjem spale sve gradove njihove u kojima se živjeli i sva njihova naselja,
11 And they took all the spoil, and all the prey, both of man and of beast.
a sve njihovo uzmu za plijen i pljačku, i ljude i životinje.
12 And they brought the captives, and the prey, and the spoil, unto Moses, and unto Eleazar the priest, and unto the congregation of the children of Israel, unto the camp at the plains of Moab, which are by the Jordan at Jericho.
Onda u tabor na Moapskim poljanama uz Jordan, nasuprot Jerihonu, dovedu Mojsiju, svećeniku Eleazaru i svoj izraelskoj zajednici zarobljenike, plijen i pljačku.
13 And Moses, and Eleazar the priest, and all the princes of the congregation, went forth to meet them without the camp.
Mojsije, svećenik Eleazar i svi glavari zajednice izađu im u susret izvan tabora.
14 And Moses was wroth with the officers of the host, the captains of thousands and the captains of hundreds, which came from the service of the war.
Mojsije se razljuti na zapovjednike vojske, tisućnike i satnike, koji se bijahu vratili s toga bojnog pohoda.
15 And Moses said unto them, Have ye saved all the women alive?
Reče im: “Što! Na životu ste ostavili sve ženskinje!
16 Behold, these caused the children of Israel, through the counsel of Balaam, to commit trespass against the LORD in the matter of Peor, and so the plague was among the congregation of the LORD.
A baš su žene, po nagovoru Bileamovu, zavele Izraelce da u Peorovu slučaju istupe protiv Jahve. Tako dođe pomor na Jahvinu zajednicu.
17 Now therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman that hath known man by lying with him.
Stoga svu mušku djecu pobijte! A ubijte i svaku ženu koja je poznala muškarca!
18 But all the women children, that have not known man by lying with him, keep alive for yourselves.
A sve mlade djevojke koje nisu poznale muškarca ostavite na životu za se.
19 And encamp ye without the camp seven days: whosoever hath killed any person, and whosoever hath touched any slain, purify yourselves on the third day and on the seventh day, ye and your captives.
Vi pak proboravite izvan tabora sedam dana; svi vi koji ste koga ubili i koji ste se ubijenoga dotakli. Čistite se i vi i vaši zarobljenici trećega i sedmoga dana;
20 And as to every garment, and all that is made of skin, and all work of goats’ [hair], and all things made of wood, ye shall purify yourselves.
očistite svu odjeću, sve mješine, sve od kostrijeti napravljeno i sve drvene predmete.”
21 And Eleazar the priest said unto the men of war which went to the battle, This is the statute of the law which the LORD hath commanded Moses:
Zatim svećenik Eleazar progovori borcima koji su se vratili iz boja: “Ovo je odredba koju je izdao Jahve Mojsiju:
22 howbeit the gold, and the silver, the brass, the iron, the tin, and the lead,
'Zlato, srebro, bakar, gvožđe, mjed i olovo -
23 every thing that may abide the fire, ye shall make to go through the fire, and it shall be clean; nevertheless it shall be purified with the water of separation: and all that abideth not the fire ye shall make to go through the water.
sve što podnosi vatru - provucite kroz vatru i bit će očišćeno.' Ipak, neka se očisti i vodom očišćenja. A sve što ne podnosi vatru provucite kroz vodu.
24 And ye shall wash your clothes on the seventh day, and ye shall be clean, and afterward ye shall come into the camp.
Sedmoga dana operite svoju odjeću i bit ćete čisti. Poslije toga možete se vratiti u tabor.”
25 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
Jahve reče Mojsiju:
26 Take the sum of the prey that was taken, both of man and of beast, thou, and Eleazar the priest, and the heads of the fathers’ [houses] of the congregation:
“Ti, svećenik Eleazar i obiteljske starješine zajednice napravite popis ratnoga plijena, ljudstva i stoke,
27 and divide the prey into two parts; between the men skilled in war, that went out to battle, and all the congregation:
a onda ratni plijen podijeli napola: na borce koji su išli u borbu i na svu ostalu zajednicu.
28 and levy a tribute unto the LORD of the men of war that went out to battle: one soul of five hundred, [both] of the persons, and of the beeves, and of the asses, and of the flocks:
Od boraca koji su išli u borbu ustavi ujam za Jahvu: jednu glavu od svakih pet stotina, bilo ljudi, bilo krupnog blaga, magaradi ili sitne stoke.
29 take it of their half, and give it unto Eleazar the priest, for the LORD’S heave offering.
Uzmi to od njihove polovice i podaj svećeniku Eleazaru kao podizanicu za Jahvu.
30 And of the children of Israel’s half, thou shalt take one drawn out of every fifty, of the persons, of the beeves, of the asses, and of the flocks, [even] of all the cattle, and give them unto the Levites, which keep the charge of the tabernacle of the LORD.
A od polovice što zapadne druge Izraelce uzmi po glavu od pedeset, bilo ljudi, bilo krupnog blaga, magaradi ili sitne stoke - od svih životinja - pa ih podaj levitima koji vode brigu o Jahvinu prebivalištu.”
31 And Moses and Eleazar the priest did as the LORD commanded Moses.
Mojsije i svećenik Eleazar učine kako je Jahve naredio Mojsiju.
32 Now the prey, over and above the booty which the men of war took, was six hundred thousand and seventy thousand and five thousand sheep,
Ratnoga je plijena bilo, osim pljačke što su vojnici napljačkali: šest stotina sedamdeset i pet tisuća grla sitne stoke,
33 and threescore and twelve thousand beeves,
sedamdeset i dvije tisuće grla krupne stoke,
34 and threescore and one thousand asses,
šezdeset i jedna tisuća magaradi,
35 and thirty and two thousand persons in all, of the women that had not known man by lying with him.
a ljudskih duša - žena koje nisu poznale muškarca - bijaše u svemu trideset i dvije tisuće.
36 And the half, which was the portion of them that went out to war, was in number three hundred thousand and thirty thousand and seven thousand and five hundred sheep:
Prema tome, polovica što je dodijeljena onima koji su išli u borbu bila je: tri stotine trideset i sedam tisuća i pet stotina grla sitne stoke;
37 and the LORD’S tribute of the sheep was six hundred and threescore and fifteen.
ujam za Jahvu od sitne stoke šest stotina sedamdeset i pet grla;
38 And the beeves were thirty and six thousand; of which the LORD’S tribute was threescore and twelve.
krupne je stoke bilo trideset i šest tisuća grla, a njihov ujam za Jahvu sedamdeset i dva grla;
39 And the asses were thirty thousand and five hundred; of which the LORD’S tribute was threescore and one.
magaradi je bilo trideset tisuća i pet stotina, a njihov ujam za Jahvu šezdeset i jedno.
40 And the persons were sixteen thousand; of whom the LORD’S tribute was thirty and two persons.
Ljudskih je duša bilo šesnaest tisuća, a njihov ujam za Jahvu trideset i dvije osobe.
41 And Moses gave the tribute, which was the LORD’S heave offering, unto Eleazar the priest, as the LORD commanded Moses.
Ujam predade Mojsije svećeniku Eleazaru za podizanicu Jahvi, kako je Jahve naredio Mojsiju.
42 And of the children of Israel’s half, which Moses divided off from the men that warred,
A od polovice koja je zapala druge Izraelce i koju Mojsije odijeli od one što je pripala ljudima koji su se borili -
43 (now the congregation’s half was three hundred thousand and thirty thousand, seven thousand and five hundred sheep,
dakle, polovica što je pripala zajednici iznosila je: trista trideset i sedam tisuća i pet stotina grla sitne stoke,
44 and thirty and six thousand beeves,
a krupne stoke trideset i šest tisuća grla;
45 and thirty thousand and five hundred asses,
magaradi trideset tisuća i pet stotina,
46 and sixteen thousand persons; )
a ljudskih duša šesnaest tisuća.
47 even of the children of Israel’s half, Moses took one drawn out of every fifty, both of man and of beast, and gave them unto the Levites, which kept the charge of the tabernacle of the LORD; as the LORD commanded Moses.
Tako, od polovice što je pripala Izraelcima Mojsije ostavi po jedno od pedeset, i od ljudstva i od stoke, te ih predade levitima koji su se brinuli o Jahvinu prebivalištu, kako je Jahve naredio Mojsiju.
48 And the officers which were over the thousands of the host, the captains of thousands, and the captains of hundreds, came near unto Moses:
Onda pristupiše k Mojsiju vojnički zapovjednici, tisućnici i satnici,
49 and they said unto Moses, Thy servants have taken the sum of the men of war which are under our charge, and there lacketh not one man of us.
i rekoše mu: “Tvoje sluge prebrojile su borce što bijahu pod našim zapovjedništvom i od nas nitko nije izgubljen.
50 And we have brought the LORD’S oblation, what every man hath gotten, of jewels of gold, ankle chains, and bracelets, signet-rings, earrings, and armlets, to make atonement for our souls before the LORD.
Uz to smo donijeli svoje darove Jahvi: narukvica, orukvica, prstenja, naušnica i ogrlica - na kakvu je tko zlatninu već naišao - da se nad nama obavi obred pomirenja pred Jahvom.”
51 And Moses and Eleazar the priest took the gold of them, even all wrought jewels.
Mojsije i svećenik Eleazar prime od njih to zlato, to jest sve te izrađene predmete.
52 And all the gold of the heave offering that they offered up to the LORD, of the captains of thousands, and of the captains of hundreds, was sixteen thousand seven hundred and fifty shekels.
Bilo je svega zlata što su kao svoju podizanicu Jahvi donijeli tisućnici i satnici: šesnaest tisuća sedam stotina i pedeset šekela.
53 ([For] the men of war had taken booty, every man for himself.)
Svaki je vojnik za se zadržao svoj plijen.
54 And Moses and Eleazar the priest took the gold of the captains of thousands and of hundreds, and brought it into the tent of meeting, for a memorial for the children of Israel before the LORD.
Tako Mojsije i svećenik Eleazar uzmu zlato od tisućnika i satnika te ga donesu u Šator sastanka na spomen Izraelcima pred Jahvom.
