Joshua 21

1 Then came near the ancestral heads of the Levites, unto Eleazar, the priest, and unto Joshua son of Nun, —and unto the ancestral heads of the tribes, of the sons of Israel;

Pođoše tada glavari levitskih obitelji k svećeniku Eleazaru i Jošui, sinu Nunovu, i plemenskim glavarima Izraela.

2 and spake unto them in Shiloh in the land of Canaan, saying: Yahweh himself, commanded, by the hand of Moses, that there should be given unto us cities to dwell in, —with their pasture-lands for our cattle.

I rekoše im u Šilu, u zemlji kanaanskoj: “Jahve je zapovjedio preko Mojsija da nam se dadu gradovi gdje ćemo živjeti i pašnjaci oko njih za našu stoku.”

3 So the sons of Israel gave unto the Levites, out of their own inheritance, at the bidding of Yahweh, —these cities, with their pasture-lands.

Izraelci dadoše levitima od svoje baštine, po zapovijedi Jahvinoj, ove gradove s njihovim pašnjacima.

4 And, when the lot came out for the families of the Kohathites, then had the sons of Aaron the priest, from among the Levites—out of the tribe of Judah and out of the tribe of the Simeonites and out of the tribe of Benjamin—by lot, thirteen cities.

Iziđe, dakle, ždrijeb za porodice Kehatove: levitima, potomcima svećenika Arona, pripade trinaest gradova od plemena Judina, Šimunova i Benjaminova;

5 And, the sons of Kohath that remained, had—out of the families of the tribe of Ephraim and out of the tribe of Dan and out of the half tribe of Manasseh—by lot, ten cities.

6 And, the sons of Gershon, had—out of families of the tribe of Issachar and out of the tribe of Asher and out of the tribe of Naphtali and out of the half tribe of Manasseh in Bashan—by lot, thirteen cities.

8 So the sons of Israel gave unto the Levites these cities, with their pasture lands, —as Yahweh commanded, by the hand of Moses, by lot.

Tako Izraelci ždrijebom dodijeliše levitima te gradove s pašnjacima, kako bijaše zapovjedio Jahve preko Mojsija.

11 yea there was given unto them, the city of Arba, the father of Anak, the same, is Hebron, in the hill country of Judah, —with the pasture land thereof, round about it;

pripade Kirjat-Arba, glavni grad Anakovaca, to jest Hebron, u Judinoj gori, s pašnjacima unaokolo.

12 whereas, the fields of the city, and the villages thereof, gave they unto Caleb son of Jephunneh, as his possession.

13 But, unto the sons of Aaron the priest, gave they the city of refuge for the manslayer, even Hebron, with the pasture lands thereof, —Libnah also, with her pasture lands;

U svemu bijaše dodijeljeno ždrijebom porodicama sinova Merarijevih, preostalim levitima, dvanaest gradova.

41 All the cities of the Levites, in the midst of the possession of the sons of Israel, were forty-eight cities, with their pasture lands:

Tako usred baštine sinova Izraelovih bijaše četrdeset i osam levitskih gradova s pašnjacima.

42 these cities passed, each severally, with its pasture lands round about it; thus, was it with all these cities.

Svaki je taj grad imao pašnjake unaokolo. Tako je bilo sa svima spomenutim gradovima.

43 So Yahweh gave unto Israel, all the land which he had sworn to give unto their fathers, —and they took possession thereof, and dwelt therein.

Tako je Jahve predao Izraelcima svu zemlju za koju se zakleo da će je dati ocima njihovim. Primili su je u posjed i nastanili se u njoj.

44 And Yahweh gave them rest round about, according to all that he had sworn unto their fathers, —and there stood not a man before them, of all their enemies; all their enemies, did Yahweh deliver into their hand.

I dade im Jahve da otpočinu u miru na svim međama, kako se bijaše zakleo njihovim ocima. Nitko im od njihovih neprijatelja ne bijaše kadar odoljeti. Sve im je njihove neprijatelje predao Jahve u ruke.

45 There failed not a thing, out of all the good things, whereof Yahweh had spoken unto the house of Israel, —the whole, came to pass.

Od svih obećanja što ih je Jahve dao domu Izraelovu nijedno ne osta neispunjeno. Sve se ispunilo.
