< Numbers 31 >

1 Then spake Yahweh unto Moses, saying:
Jahve reče Mojsiju:
2 Exact thou the avenging of the sons of Israel, from the Midianites, —and, afterwards, shalt thou be withdrawn unto thy kinsfolk.
“Iskali osvetu Izraelaca na Midjancima, a poslije toga pridružit ćeš se svojim precima.”
3 So Moses spake unto the people saying, Arm ye from among you men, for the war, and let them go against Midian, to render the avenging of Yahweh upon Midian.
A Mojsije reče narodu: “Opremite ljude između sebe za pohod na Midjance,
4 A thousand from each tribe, —of all the tribes of Israel, shall ye send forth unto the war.
da na Midjancima izvrše Jahvinu osvetu. Na vojnu opremite po jednu tisuću od svakoga izraelskog plemena!”
5 And there volunteered out of the thousands of Israel, a thousand of each 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 each tribe to the war, —them, and Phinehas son of Eleazar the priest, to the war, with the vessels of the sanctuary, and the alarm trumpets, 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 So they made war upon Midian, as Yahweh had commanded Moses, and slew every male:
Oni zavojuju na Midjance, kako je Jahve naredio Mojsiju, i pobiju sve muškarce.
8 and the kings of Midian, slew they besides their other slain namely, Evi, and Rekem, and Zur, and Hur, and Reba, five kings of Midian, —Balaam also, son of Beor, slew they 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 sons of Israel took captive the women of Midian and their little ones, —all their cattle also and all their flocks and all their substance, carried they off as 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 all their cities also in their sites, and all their encampments, burned they up with fire.
Ognjem spale sve gradove njihove u kojima se živjeli i sva njihova naselja,
11 Then took they all the spoil, and all the booty, —both of man and beast;
a sve njihovo uzmu za plijen i pljačku, i ljude i životinje.
12 and brought in unto Moses and unto Eleazar the priest and unto the assembly of the sons of Israel—the captives and the booty, and the spoil unto the camp, —unto the waste plains of Moab, which are by Jordan, near 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 assembly, went forth to meet them, —unto the outside of the camp.
Mojsije, svećenik Eleazar i svi glavari zajednice izađu im u susret izvan tabora.
14 Then was Moses sore displeased with the officers of the force, —the princes of thousands, and the princes of hundreds who were coming in from the warring host.
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 alive every female?
Reče im: “Što! Na životu ste ostavili sve ženskinje!
16 Lo! they, became unto the sons of Israel, by the advice of Balaam, the cause of daring acts of treachery against Yahweh, over the affair of Peor, —and then came the plague against the assembly of Yahweh!
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, slay ye every male among the young, —every woman also that hath cohabited with man, slay ye.
Stoga svu mušku djecu pobijte! A ubijte i svaku ženu koja je poznala muškarca!
18 But all the young of womankind that have, not cohabited with man, preserve alive for yourselves.
A sve mlade djevojke koje nisu poznale muškarca ostavite na životu za se.
19 Ye, then, pitch outside the camp, for seven days, —whosoever hath killed a person and whoever hath touched the slain, cleanse yourselves (from sin) 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 Every garment also, and every article of skin and every thing made of goat’s-hair, and every article of wood, shall ye cleanse (from sin).
očistite svu odjeću, sve mješine, sve od kostrijeti napravljeno i sve drvene predmete.”
21 Then said Eleazar the priest unto the men of the host, who had been to the war: This, is the statute of the law, which Yahweh hath commanded Moses:
Zatim svećenik Eleazar progovori borcima koji su se vratili iz boja: “Ovo je odredba koju je izdao Jahve Mojsiju:
22 Surely the gold and the silver, —the bronze the iron, the tin and the lead,
'Zlato, srebro, bakar, gvožđe, mjed i olovo -
23 whatsoever thing can go into fire, ye shall pass through fire and it shall be clean, only with the water of separation, shall ye cleanse it (from sin). But whatsoever cannot go into fire, ye shall pass through 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 be clean, —and after-wards, shall ye come into the camp.
Sedmoga dana operite svoju odjeću i bit ćete čisti. Poslije toga možete se vratiti u tabor.”
25 Then spake Yahweh unto Moses, saying:
Jahve reče Mojsiju:
26 Reckon thou up the sum of the booty that was captured, both of man and of beast, —thou and Eleazar the priest, and the ancestral heads of the assembly;
“Ti, svećenik Eleazar i obiteljske starješine zajednice napravite popis ratnoga plijena, ljudstva i stoke,
27 and divide the booty into two parts, between them who took upon them the war, who went out in the host, —and all the [rest of the] assembly.
a onda ratni plijen podijeli napola: na borce koji su išli u borbu i na svu ostalu zajednicu.
28 Then shalt thou levy a tribute unto Yahweh—from the men of war, who went forth in the host, one living thing, out of five hundred, —of the human beings, and of the herd, and of the asses and of the flock:
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 out of their half, shall ye take [them], —and thou shall give [them] unto Eleazar the priest as a heave-offering unto Yahweh.
Uzmi to od njihove polovice i podaj svećeniku Eleazaru kao podizanicu za Jahvu.
30 And out of the half allotted to the sons of Israel, shalt thou take one allotted portion out of fifty of the human beings, of the herd, of the asses and of the flock of all the cattle, —and shalt give them unto the Levites, who keep the charge of the habitation of Yahweh.
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 Yahweh commanded Moses.
Mojsije i svećenik Eleazar učine kako je Jahve naredio Mojsiju.
32 And it came to pass that the booty, over and above the prey which the people of the host had seized, was, —of the flock, six hundred and seventy-five thousand;
Ratnoga je plijena bilo, osim pljačke što su vojnici napljačkali: šest stotina sedamdeset i pet tisuća grla sitne stoke,
33 and, of the herd, seventy-two thousand;
sedamdeset i dvije tisuće grla krupne stoke,
34 and, of the asses, sixty-one thousand;
šezdeset i jedna tisuća magaradi,
35 and, of the human persons, even of the woman-kind who had not cohabited with man, —all the persons, thirty-two thousand.
a ljudskih duša - žena koje nisu poznale muškarca - bijaše u svemu trideset i dvije tisuće.
36 And the half, the share of them who had gone forth in the host, was, —the number of the flock—three hundred and thirty-seven thousand and five hundred;
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 so, the tribute unto Yahweh, out of the flock, was—six hundred and seventy-five;
ujam za Jahvu od sitne stoke šest stotina sedamdeset i pet grla;
38 and the herd, thirty-six thousand, —and the tribute of them unto Yahweh—seventy-two;
krupne je stoke bilo trideset i šest tisuća grla, a njihov ujam za Jahvu sedamdeset i dva grla;
39 and the asses, thirty thousand and five hundred, —and the tribute of them unto Yahweh, sixty-one;
magaradi je bilo trideset tisuća i pet stotina, a njihov ujam za Jahvu šezdeset i jedno.
40 and the human persons, sixteen thousand, —and the tribute of them unto Yahweh, thirty-two persons.
Ljudskih je duša bilo šesnaest tisuća, a njihov ujam za Jahvu trideset i dvije osobe.
41 And Moses gave the tribute—the heave-offering of Yahweh, unto Eleazar the priest, —As Yahweh commanded Moses.
Ujam predade Mojsije svećeniku Eleazaru za podizanicu Jahvi, kako je Jahve naredio Mojsiju.
42 And, of the half, allotted unto the sons of Israel, —which Moses halved away from the men who had gone out in the host,
A od polovice koja je zapala druge Izraelce i koju Mojsije odijeli od one što je pripala ljudima koji su se borili -
43 the half allotted unto the assembly, was—of the flock, three hundred and thirty-seven thousand, and five hundred;
dakle, polovica što je pripala zajednici iznosila je: trista trideset i sedam tisuća i pet stotina grla sitne stoke,
44 and, of the herd, six and thirty thousand;
a krupne stoke trideset i šest tisuća grla;
45 and, of asses, thirty thousand and five hundred;
magaradi trideset tisuća i pet stotina,
46 and, human persons, sixteen thousand.
a ljudskih duša šesnaest tisuća.
47 So then Moses took—out of the half belonging to the sons of Israel the allotted portion one out of fifty, of the human beings and of the beasts, —and gave them unto the Levites, the keepers of the charge of the habitation of Yahweh, As Yahweh 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 Then came near unto Moses the officers who belonged unto the thousands of the host, —the princes of thousands and the princes of hundreds;
Onda pristupiše k Mojsiju vojnički zapovjednici, tisućnici i satnici,
49 and said unto Moses, Thy servants have reckoned up the sum of the men of war who are in our hand, —and there is not missed from among us, a man!
i rekoše mu: “Tvoje sluge prebrojile su borce što bijahu pod našim zapovjedništvom i od nas nitko nije izgubljen.
50 Therefore have we brought near an offering unto Yahweh, what, each man, hath found—articles of gold, ankle chains and bracelets, rings earrings and buckles, —to put a propitiatory-covering over our souls before Yahweh.
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 So Moses, and Eleazar the priest took the gold of them, —all the wrought articles.
Mojsije i svećenik Eleazar prime od njih to zlato, to jest sve te izrađene predmete.
52 And all the gold of the heave-offering which they offered up unto Yahweh, was—sixteen thousand seven hundred and fifty shekels, —of the princes of thousands, and of the princes of hundreds.
Bilo je svega zlata što su kao svoju podizanicu Jahvi donijeli tisućnici i satnici: šesnaest tisuća sedam stotina i pedeset šekela.
53 The men of the host, had taken prey, each man for himself.
Svaki je vojnik za se zadržao svoj plijen.
54 So then Moses and Eleazar the priest took the gold of the princes of thousands, and hundreds, —and brought it into the tent of meeting, as a memorial for the sons of Israel before Yahweh.
Tako Mojsije i svećenik Eleazar uzmu zlato od tisućnika i satnika te ga donesu u Šator sastanka na spomen Izraelcima pred Jahvom.
