Numbers 11
1 One day the people complained to Yahweh about their troubles. When Yahweh heard what they were saying, he became angry. So he sent a fire which burned among the people at the edge of their camp.
I stade narod zlobno mrmljati u Jahvine uši. Kad to ču Jahve, planu gnjevom. Jahvin oganj izbi među njima i spali jedan kraj tabora.
2 Then the people cried out to Moses/me, and he/I prayed to Yahweh. Then the fire stopped burning.
Narod zavapi Mojsiju, a Mojsije se pomoli Jahvi i oganj se utiša.
3 So they called that place Taberah, [which means ‘burning’], because the fire from Yahweh had burned among them.
Ono se mjesto prozva Tabera, jer je Jahvin oganj ondje zaplamtio na njih.
4 Then some troublemakers from other people-groups [who were traveling] with the Israelis began to want better food. And [when they started complaining] the Israeli people also started to complain.
Svjetinu koja se oko njih skupila obuzme pohlepa za jelom. Izraelci se opet upuste u jadikovanje govoreći: “Tko će nas nasititi mesom?
5 They said, “We wish we had some meat!
Sjećamo se kako smo u Egiptu jeli badava ribe, krastavaca, dinje, prÓase, luka i češnjaka.
6 We remember the fish that we ate while we were in Egypt, fish that was given to us without (cost/asking us to pay for it). And we had all the cucumbers, melons, leeks, onions, and garlic [that we wanted]. But now we do not have any desire to eat, because all we have to eat is this manna!”
Sad nam život vene; nema ničega, osim mÓane, pred našim očima.”
7 The manna resembled small white seeds.
MÓana je bila kao zrno korijandera i nalik na bdelij.
8 [Each morning] the people would go out and gather some [from the surface of the ground]. Then they made flour by grinding it or pounding it with stones. Then they [added water and] boiled it in a pot, or they made flat cakes with it [and baked them]. The cakes tasted like bread that was baked with [olive] oil.
Narod išao naokolo, skupljao je, a onda tro kamenom na kamenoj ploči ili stÓupao u stÓupi. Kuhao ju je u loncu i od nje pravio kolače. Okus joj bijaše kao okus kolača zgotovljena u ulju.
9 Each night the manna came down on their ground where their tents were, like dew [from the sky].
Kad bi se noću spuštala rosa po taborištu, s njome bi se spustila i mÓana.
10 Moses/I heard all the Israeli people complaining as they were standing in the entrances of their tents. Yahweh became very angry, and Moses/I was also very perturbed.
Mojsije je slušao kako jadikuje narod u svojim obiteljima, svatko na ulazu u svoj šator. Gnjev Jahvin žestoko planu i Mojsije se ražalosti.
11 He/I [went into the Sacred Tent and] asked Yahweh, “Why have you caused me, your servant, to experience this trouble [RHQ]? Act mercifully to me! What wrong have I done, with the result that you have appointed me to take care of all of these people [RHQ]?
“Zašto zlostavljaš slugu svoga?” - upravi Mojsije riječ Jahvi. “Zašto nisam stekao milost u tvojim očima kad si na me uprtio teret svega ovog naroda?
12 (I am not their father./Am I their father?) [RHQ] Why have you told me to take care of them like a woman carries around her baby and (nurses it/gives it her milk) [MET, RHQ]? How can I take them to the land that you promised to give to our ancestors [RHQ]?
Zar je od mene potekao sav ovaj narod? Zar sam ga ja rodio, kad veliš: 'Nosi ga u svome krilu, kao što dojilja nosi dojenče, u zemlju što sam je pod zakletvom obećao njihovim očevima!'
13 Where can I get meat to feed all these people? They keep complaining to me, saying, ‘Give us some meat to eat!’
Odakle meni meso da ga dam svemu ovom puku koji plače oko mene govoreći: 'Daj nam mesa da jedemo!'
14 I cannot carry all these people’s burdens by myself! [They are like a heavy load [MET], and] I cannot carry this very heavy load any more.
Ja sam ne mogu nositi sav ovaj narod. Preteško je to za me.
15 If you intend to act like this toward me, kill me now. If you are really concerned about me, be kind to me and [kill me to] end my misery [of trying to take care of them]!”
Ako ćeš ovako sa mnom postupati, radije me ubij, ako sam stekao milost u tvojim očima, da više ne gledam svoga jada.”
16 Then Yahweh said to Moses/me, “Summon 70 men whom you know are leaders among the Israeli people. Tell them to stand with you in front of the Sacred Tent.
Onda Jahve reče Mojsiju: “Skupi mi sedamdeset muževa između starješina izraelskih za koje znaš da su starješine narodu i njegovi nadglednici. Dovedi ih u Šator sastanka pa neka ondje zauzmu svoja mjesta s tobom.
17 I will come down and talk with you there. Then I will take some of [the power of] my Spirit that you have, and I will put [that power] on them also. They will help you to take care of some of the things that the people are concerned about, in order that you will not need to do it alone.
Ja ću sići i ondje s tobom govoriti; uzet ću nešto duha koji je na tebi i stavit ću ga na njih. Tako će s tobom nositi teret naroda da ga ne nosiš sam.
18 “Furthermore, say to the people, ‘Make yourselves acceptable to me, and tomorrow you will have meat to eat. You were complaining, and Yahweh heard you when you were saying, “We want some meat to eat. We had better food in Egypt!” Now Yahweh will give you some meat, and you will eat it.
Nadalje, kaži narodu: Za sutra se posvetite i jest ćete mesa, jer ste mrmljali u uši Jahvi govoreći: 'Tko će nas nasititi mesa? U Egiptu nam je bilo dobro.' Jahve će vam, dakle, dati mesa da jedete.
19 You will eat meat not only for one or two days, nor only for five or ten or 20 days.
Nećete ga jesti samo jedan dan, ni dva dana, ni pet dana, ni deset dana, ni dvadeset dana,
20 [You will eat meat every day] for one month, and then you will loathe/despise it, and it will cause you to want to vomit. [This will happen] because you have rejected Yahweh who is here among you, and you have wailed in his presence, saying [“We would have had better food to eat] if we had not left Egypt [RHQ].”’”
nego cio mjesec, sve dok vam ne izbije na nosnice i ne ogadi vam se, jer ste odbacili Jahvu koji je među vama mrmljajući pred njim riječima: 'Zašto smo uopće odlazili iz Egipta!'”
21 But Moses/I replied to Yahweh, “There are 600,000 men [plus women and children] here with me, so ([why] do you say ‘I will give them plenty of meat every day for a month!’?/it does not seem right for you to say ‘I will give them plenty of meat every day for a month!’) [RHQ]
“Naroda u kojemu se nalazim”, odgovori Mojsije, “ima šest stotina tisuća pješaka, a ti kažeš: 'Mesa ću im dati da jedu mjesec dana.'
22 Even if we killed all the sheep and cattle, that would not [RHQ] be enough [to provide meat for all of them] Even if we caught all the fish in the sea [and gave it to them], that would not be enough [RHQ]!”
Može li im se naklati sitne i krupne stoke da im dostane? Mogu li im se sve ribe iz mora zgrnuti da im bude dosta?”
23 But Yahweh said to Moses/me, “Do you think that I [SYN] have no power? You will now see if I can do what I say I will do.”
Jahve reče Mojsiju: “Zar je ruka Jahvina tako kratka? Sad ćeš vidjeti hoće li se obistiniti moja riječ ili neće.”
24 So Moses/I went out [from the Sacred Tent] and told the people what Yahweh had said. Then he/I gathered together the 70 leaders and told them to stand around the Sacred Tent.
Mojsije izađe i kaza narodu Jahvine riječi. Onda skupi sedamdeset muževa između narodnih starješina i smjesti ih oko Šatora.
25 Then Yahweh came down in the cloud [that was above the tent] and spoke to Moses/me. He took some of [the power of] the Spirit that he had given to Moses/me and gave it to the 70 leaders. By means of the power of the Spirit within them, they (prophesied/spoke messages that Yahweh gave them), but they did that only once.
Jahve siđe u oblaku i poče s njim govoriti. Zatim uze od duha koji bijaše na njemu i stavi na onu sedamdesetoricu starješina. Kad duh počinu na njima, počeše prorokovati, ali to više nikad ne učiniše.
26 Two of the leaders whom Moses/I appointed, Eldad and Medad, were not there when the rest of them gathered together. They had not left [their tents] to go and stand around the Sacred Tent. But Yahweh’s Spirit came on them also, and they started to (prophesy/speak messages from Yahweh).
Dvojica ostadoše u taboru. Jednome je bilo ime Eldad, a drugome Medad. Duh je i na njima počinuo - bili su i oni među upisanima, premda nisu došli u tabor - te počeše u taboru prorokovati.
27 So a young man ran and told Moses/me, “Eldad and Medad are prophesying in all their tents!”
Neki mladić otrča te javi Mojsiju: “Eldad i Medad”, reče, “prorokuju u taboru!”
28 Joshua, who had helped Moses/me since he was a young man, said, “Sir, tell them to stop doing that!”
Jošua, sin Nunov, koji je posluživao Mojsija od svoje mladosti, prozbori i reče: “Mojsije, gospodaru moj, ušutkaj ih!”
29 But Moses/I replied, “(Are you worried that they might injure my reputation/Do you think that I want to be the only one who prophesies) [RHQ]? I wish that all Yahweh’s people could (prophesy/speak messages from Yahweh). I wish that Yahweh would give the power of his Spirit to all of them!”
Mojsije mu odgovori: “Zar si zavidan zbog mene! Oh, kad bi sav narod Jahvin postao prorok! Kad bi Jahve na njih izlio svoga duha!”
30 Then Moses/I and all the leaders went back to their/our tents.
Potom se Mojsije i starješine izraelske vrate u tabor.
31 Then Yahweh sent a strong wind from the sea. It blew quail into the area all around the camp for miles in every direction, [and caused the quail to fall onto the ground]. They were piled up on the ground about (3 feet/1 meter) high!
Tada Jahve zapovjedi te zapuhnu vjetar i nanese prepelice od mora i sasu ih na tabor, na dan hoda i s ove i s one strane tabora, na dva lakta iznad zemlje.
32 So the people went out and gathered up the quail all that day, and all that night, and all of the following day. [It seemed as though] everyone gathered at least 50 bushels! They spread the quail out on the ground all around the camp, [so that the quail would dry out].
Narod je ustao te je toga cijeloga dana, svu noć i cio sutrašnji dan skupljao prepelice. Onaj tko ih je skupio najmanje imao je deset homera.
33 [Then they cooked them and started to eat them]. But while they were still eating the meat [MTY], Yahweh [showed that he] was very angry with them. He struck them with a severe plague/sickness, [and many people died].
Zatim ih razastriješe oko tabora. Meso još bijaše među njihovim zubima - još ga nisu prožvakali - kadli planu Jahvin gnjev protiv naroda: Jahve udari narod strašnim pomorom.
34 The people who died and were buried were the ones who had said they wanted to eat meat [like they had formerly eaten in Egypt]. So they called that place Kibroth-Hattaavah, [which means ‘graves of those who craved’].
Ono se mjesto prozva Kibrot Hataava, jer su ondje pokopali one koji se bijahu polakomili.
35 From there, the Israelis continued walking [east] until they arrived at Hazeroth [town], where they stopped and stayed [for a long time].
Iz Kibrot Hataave narod se zaputi u Haserot. I utabori se u Haserotu.
