Numbers 23
1 And he said Balaam to Balak build for me in this [place] seven altars and prepare for me in this [place] seven young bulls and seven rams.
I Bileam reče Balaku: “Ovdje mi načini sedam žrtvenika; ovdje mi pripravi sedam junaca i sedam ovnova.”
2 And he did Balak just as he had spoken Balaam and he offered up Balak and Balaam a young bull and a ram on the altar.
Balak učini kako je Bileam rekao. A onda Balak i Bileam prinesu po jednoga junca i ovna na svakome žrtveniku.
3 And he said Balaam to Balak take your stand with burnt offering your so let me go perhaps he will meet Yahweh to meet me and [the] word of whatever he will show me and I will tell to you and he went a bare height.
Potom će Bileam Balaku: “Ti stoj kod svoje paljenice, a ja idem ne bih li se sreo s Jahvom, pa što mi očituje, kazat ću ti.” I ode na osamljeno mjesto.
4 And he met God Balaam and he said to him [the] seven the altars I have arranged and I have offered up a young bull and a ram on the altar.
I Bog srete Bileama, koji mu reče: “Sedam sam žrtvenika podigao i prinio na svakome po jednoga junca i ovna.”
5 And he put Yahweh a word in [the] mouth of Balaam and he said return to Balak and thus you will speak.
A Jahve stavi riječi u usta Bileamu te mu zapovjedi: “Vrati se Balaku i ovako govori.”
6 And he returned to him and there! [he was] standing with burnt offering his he and all [the] leaders of Moab.
Bileam se vrati k njemu, a on stajaše uza svoju paljenicu i s njim svi knezovi moapski.
7 And he lifted up oracle his and he said from Aram he led me Balak [the] king of Moab from [the] mountains of [the] east come! curse! for me Jacob and come! denounce! Israel.
Tada on poče svoju pjesmu i reče: “Iz Arama dovede me Balak, kralj Moaba, iz strana istočnih: 'Dođi, prokuni mi Jakova, dođi, gromom udri Izraela!'
8 What? will I curse [one whom] not he has cursed him God and what? will I denounce [one whom] not he has denounced Yahweh.
Kako mogu proklinjati koga Bog ne proklinje? Kako gromom udarati koga Jahve ne udara?
9 For from [the] top of [the] rocks I see him and from [the] hills I observe him there! a people [which] alone it dwells and among the nations not it reckons itself.
Jer s vrha hridi ja ga gledam, s visoka ga motrim brijega. Gle naroda koji odvojeno živi, među narode on se ne broji.
10 Who? has he counted [the] dust of Jacob and a number [the] fourth part of Israel let it die self my [the] death of upright [people] and let it be end my like his.
Prah Jakovljev tko će prebrojiti; pijesak Izraela tko će izmjeriti! O, da mi je umrijeti smrću pravednika! O, da svršetak moj bude kao njegov!”
11 And he said Balak to Balaam what? have you done to me to curse enemies my I took you and here! you have blessed actually.
“Što mi to uradi!” - reče Balak Bileamu. “Dovedoh te da prokuneš moje neprijatelje, a kad tamo, ti ih blagoslovom obasu!”
12 And he answered and he said ¿ not [that] which he will put Yahweh in mouth my it will I take care to speak.
On odgovori: “Zar mi nije dužnost kazati što mi Jahve stavlja u usta?”
13 And he said to him Balak (come there! *Q(K)*) please with me to a place another where you will see it from there only outskirt[s] its you will see and all of it not you will see and curse it for me from there.
“Hajde sa mnom na drugo mjesto, odakle ga možeš svega vidjeti” zamoli ga Balak. “Odavde mu vidiš samo jedan kraj, a ne vidiš ga svega. Odande mi ga prokuni!”
14 And he took him [the] field of Zophim to [the] top of Pisgah and he built seven altars and he offered up a young bull and a ram on the altar.
Povede ga zatim na Sede Sofim, na vrh Pisge. Tu sagradi sedam žrtvenika i na svakom žrtveniku prinese po jednoga junca i ovna.
15 And he said to Balak take your stand thus with burnt offering your and I I will meet thus.
Bileam tada rekne Balaku: “Stoj ovdje kraj svoje paljenice, a ja odoh onamo na susret Bogu.”
16 And he met Yahweh Balaam and he put a word in mouth his and he said return to Balak and thus you will speak.
Jahve sretne Bileama; stavi riječi u njegova usta te mu zapovjedi: “Vrati se k Balaku i tako govori!”
17 And he went to him and there he [was] standing with burnt offering his and [the] leaders of Moab [were] with him and he said to him Balak what? has he spoken Yahweh.
I vrati se on Balaku, koji stajaše uza svoju paljenicu i s njim moapski knezovi. Balak ga zapita: “Što je Jahve rekao?”
18 And he lifted up oracle his and he said arise O Balak and hear give ear! to me [O] son his Zippor.
Tada Bileam započe svoju pjesmu i reče: “Ustani, Balače, i poslušaj! Uhom me posluhni, sine Siporov!
19 Not [is] a human God so he may lie and a son of humankind so he may change his mind ¿ he has he said and not will he act? and has he spoken? and not will he fulfill? it.
Bog nije čovjek da bi slagao, nije sin Adama da bi se kajao. Zar on kada rekne, a ne učini, zar obeća, pa ne ispuni?
20 Here! [surely] blessing I have received and he has blessed and not I will turn back it.
Gle, primih od Boga da blagoslovim, blagoslovit ću i povuć' neću blagoslova.
21 Not he has looked at disaster in Jacob and not he has seen trouble in Israel Yahweh God his [is] with him and a shout of a king [is] among him.
U Jakovu nesreće ne nazreh, nit' nevolje vidjeh u Izraelu. Jahve, Bog njegov, s njime je, poklik kralju u njemu odzvanja.
22 God [is] bringing out them from Egypt like [the] horns of a wild ox [belong] to him.
Iz Egipta Bog ga je izveo, on je njemu k'o rozi bivola.
23 For not enchantment [is] in Jacob and not divination [is] in Israel about this time it will be said of Jacob and of Israel what! has he done God.
Gatanja nema protiv Jakova nit' protiv Izraela vračanja. I kada budu rekli Jakovu i Izraelu: 'Što radi Bog?'
24 There! a people like a lion it rises and like a lion it lifts itself up not it will lie down until it will devour prey and [the] blood of [those] slain it will drink.
gle, ustat će narod k'o lavica, dići će se poput lava: leći neće dok plijen ne proguta, dok ne popije krv pobijenih.”
25 And he said Balak to Balaam neither at all not you will curse it nor at all not you will bless it.
Zatim Balak reče Bileamu: “Nemoj ga ni kletvom kleti, ali ni blagoslovom blagoslivljati.”
26 And he answered Balaam and he said to Balak ¿ not did I speak to you saying all that he will speak Yahweh it I will do.
Bileam odvrati Balaku. “Zar ti nisam rekao: sve što Jahve kaže, to ću činiti.”
27 And he said Balak to Balaam come! please let me take you to a place another perhaps it will be pleasing in [the] eyes of God and you will curse it for me from there.
Potom Balak reče Bileamu: “Hajde! Odvest ću te na drugo mjesto. Možda će Bogu biti pravo da mi ga odande prokuneš.”
28 And he took Balak Balaam [the] top of Peor which looks down over [the] face of the desolate place.
I odvede Balak Bileama na vrh Peora, odakle se pruža vidik na pustaru.
29 And he said Balaam to Balak build for me in this [place] seven altars and prepare for me in this [place] seven young bulls and seven rams.
“Sagradi mi ovdje sedam žrtvenika”, reče Bileam Balaku. “Nadalje, pripremi mi ovdje sedam junaca i sedam ovnova.”
30 And he did Balak just as he had said Balaam and he offered up a young bull and a ram on the altar.
Balak učini kako je Bileam rekao i prinese po jednoga junca i ovna na svakome žrtveniku.
