Deuteronomy 33
1 Before God’s prophet Moses died, he [asked God to] bless the Israeli people.
А ово је благослов којим благослови Мојсије, човек Божји синове Израиљеве пред смрт своју.
2 This is what he said: “Yahweh came [and spoke] to us at Sinai [Mountain]; he [came like] [MET] the sun rises in the Edom [region] and like his light shone on us when we were [in the desert] near Paran Mountain [after we left Sinai Mountain]. He came with 10,000 angels, and there was a flaming fire at his right side.
И рече: Господ изиђе са Синаја, и показа им се са Сира; засја с горе Фаранске, и дође с мноштвом хиљада светаца, а у десници му закон огњени за њих.
3 Yahweh truly loves his people, and protects [MTY] all those who belong to him. So they prostrate themselves in front of him, and they listen to his instructions.
Доиста љуби народе; сви су свети Његови у руци Твојој; и они се слегоше к ногама Твојим да приме речи Твоје.
4 I gave them laws to obey, laws that would be the most precious thing that [the descendants of] Jacob owned.
Мојсије нам даде закон, наследство збору Јаковљевом.
5 So Yahweh became the king of his Israeli people when all the tribes and their leaders were gathered together.
Јер беше цар у Израиљу, кад се сабираху кнезови народни, племена Израиљева.
6 [I say this about the tribe of] Reuben: I desire/hope that their tribe will never disappear, but they will never become numerous.
Да живи Рувим и не умре, а људи његових да буде мало!
7 “say this about [the tribe of] Judah: Yahweh, listen to them when they call out [for help]; and unite them with the other tribes again. Fight for them, and help them to fight against their enemies.
А за Јуду рече: Услиши Господе глас Јудин, и доведи га опет к народу његовом; руке његове нека војују на њ, а Ти му помажи против непријатеља његових.
8 I say this about [the tribe of] Levi: Yahweh, give to those who are dedicated to you the sacred stones [that they will use to find out what you want to be done]; You tested them at a spring in the desert, a spring that they named Massah and also named Meribah [to find out if they would (remain loyal to/continue to obey) you].
И за Левија рече: Твој Тумим и Твој Урим нека буду у човека Твог светог, ког си окушао у Маси и с којим си се препирао на води Мериви;
9 The tribe of Levi did what you told them to do and obeyed the agreement that you [made with the Israeli people]; those laws were more important to them [HYP] than their siblings and parents and children.
Који каже оцу свом и матери својој: Не гледам на вас; који не познаје браћу своју и за синове своје не зна, јер држи речи Твоје и завет Твој чува.
10 The tribe of Levi will teach the Israeli people [DOU] your rules and regulations, and they are the ones who will burn incense and who will completely burn on the altar the offerings [that the people bring].
Они уче уредбама Твојим Јакова и закону Твом Израиља, и мећу кад под ноздрве Твоје и жртву што се сажиже на олтар Твој.
11 Yahweh, bless their work and (accept/be pleased with) all that they do. Crush/Destroy all their enemies; do not enable their enemies to be able to fight against them again.
Благослови, Господе, војску његову, и нека Ти мило буде дело руку његових; поломи бедре онима који устају на њ и који мрзе на њ, да не устану.
12 I say this about [the tribe of] Benjamin: They are the tribe that Yahweh loves; he keeps them safe. He protects them continually, and he lives among their hills [MET].
За Венијамина рече: Мили Господу наставаће без страха с Њим; заклањаће га сваки дан, и међу плећима Његовим наставаће.
13 “say this about [the tribes of] Joseph: I desire/hope that Yahweh will bless their land by giving them rain/dew from the sky and water from deep [in the ground],
И за Јосифа рече: Благословена је земља његова од Господа благом с неба, росом и из дубине одоздо,
14 by giving them good fruit [ripened] by the sun and good crops at harvest time.
И благом које долази од сунца, и благом које долази од месеца.
15 I desire/hope that very nice fruit will grow on trees in their ancient mountains/hills [DOU],
И благом старих брда и благом вечних хумова.
16 and that their land will be have many good crops, blessed by [Yahweh], the one who appeared to me in a burning bush. I desire/hope that Yahweh will bless the tribes of Joseph in all those ways, because he was the leaders of his [older] brothers [when they were in Egypt].
И благом на земљи и обиљем њеним, и милошћу оног који стоји у купини. Нека то дође не главу Јосифу и на теме одвојеноме између браће своје.
17 The descendants of Joseph will be as strong as [SIM] a bull; [with their weapons they will wound their enemies, like] [MET] a wild ox [gores other animals] with its horns. They will force other people-groups, all of them, to be exiled to the most distant places on the earth. That is what [the descendants of the two sons of Joseph] will do, the ten thousands [of the tribe] of Ephraim and the thousands [of the tribe] of Manasseh.
Красота је његова као у првенца телета, и рогови његови као рогови у једнорога; њима ће бости народе све до краја земље; то је мноштво хиљада Јефремових и хиљаде Манасијине.
18 “say this about [the tribes of] Zebulun [and Issachar]: I desire/hope that the people of Zebulun will prosper in their travels [across the seas], and that the people of Issachar will prosper while they stay at home [and take care of their cattle and crops].
А за Завулона рече: Весели се Завулоне изласком својим, и Исахаре шаторима својим.
19 They will invite people [from the other Israeli tribes] to the mountain [where they worship Yahweh], and they will offer the correct/proper sacrifices to him. They will become rich from [the work that they do on] the seas and from [the things that they make from] (OR, [find in]) the sand [on the beaches].
Народе ће сазвати на гору, онде ће принети жртве праведне; јер ће обиље морско сисати и скривено благо у песку.
20 “say this about [the tribe of] Gad: Praise [Yahweh], the one who made their [territory] large. The people of their tribe [will attack their enemies fiercely] [SIM] like a lion that crouches, waiting to tear off the arm or the scalp [of some animal].
А за Гада рече: Благословен је који шири Гада; он настава као лав, и кида руку и главу.
21 They chose the best part of the land for themselves; [a large share of the land], a share that should be given to a leader was allotted to them. When the leaders of the tribes of Israel [gathered together], they decided that the tribe of Gad should have a large share of the land. The tribe of Gad obeyed the commands of Yahweh and the things that he decided that they should do.
Изабра себи прво, јер онде доби део од Оног који даде закон; зато ће ићи с кнезовима народним, и извршавати правду Господњу и судове Његове с Израиљем.
22 “say this about [the tribe] of Dan: The people of the tribe of Dan are like [SIM] a young lion; they leap from [their caves in the] Bashan [region to attack their enemies].
А за Дана рече: Дан је лавић, који ће искакати из Васана.
23 “say this about [the tribe of] Naphtali: [The people of the tribe of] Naphtali have been blessed by Yahweh, who has been very kind to them; their land extends far south from Lake [Galilee].
И за Нефталима рече: Нефталиме, сити милости и пуни благослова Господњег, запад и југ узми.
24 “say this about [the tribe of] Asher: May Yahweh bless the descendants of Asher more than he will bless the other tribes. May he favor Asher’s descendants most of all. I desire/hope that their land will [be filled with olive trees that will] produce a lot of [IDM] [olives to make olive] oil.
И за Асира рече: Асир ће бити благослов мимо друге синове, биће мио браћи својој, замакаће у уље ногу своју.
25 Their [towns will be protected by high walls with gates that have] bronze and iron bars; I desire/hope that they will be strong and secure/protected all the time that they are alive.
Гвожђе и бронза биће под обућом твојом; и докле трају дани твоји трајаће снага твоја.
26 “You people of Israel, there is no god like your God, who rides majestically across the sky to help you.
Израиљу! Нико није као Бог, који иде по небу теби у помоћ, и у величанству свом на облацима.
27 God, who lives forever, is the one who (gives you refuge/protects you); [it is as though] he puts his everlasting arms under you [to support you]. He will expel your enemies while you advance; he has told you to destroy all of them.
Заклон је Бог вечни и под мишицом вечном; Он ће одагнати испред тебе непријатеље твоје, и рећи ће: Затри!
28 So, you Israeli people will live safely; you descendants of Jacob will not be disturbed by others; in the land where [you will live], there will be plenty of grain and wine, and there will be plenty of rain.
Да би наставао Израиљ сам безбрижно, извор Јаковљев, у земљи обилној житом и вином; и небо ће његово покропити росом.
29 You people of Israel, Yahweh (has blessed/is pleased with) you. There is certainly [RHQ] no nation like your nation, whom Yahweh has rescued [from being slaves in Egypt]. [He will be like] [MET] a shield to protect you and like [MET] a sword to enable you to defeat [your enemies]. Your enemies will come to you begging for you [to act mercifully toward them], but you will trample on their backs/necks.”
Благо теби народе Израиљу! Ко је као ти, народ ког је сачувао Господ, штит помоћи твоје, и мач славе твоје? Непријатељи ће се твоји понизити, а ти ћеш газити висине њихове.
