Numbers 32
1 Now the descendants of Reuben and of Gad had large numbers of livestock. When they saw the land of Jazer and Gilead, the land was a wonderful place for livestock.
Rubenovci i Gadovci imađahu mnogo, vrlo mnogo blaga. Opaze, međutim, da je zemlja jazerska i zemlja gileadska pogodna za stočarstvo.
2 So the descendants of Gad and Reuben came and spoke to Moses, to Eleazar the priest, and to the leaders of the community. They said,
Zato Gadovci i Rubenovci dođu k Mojsiju, svećeniku Eleazaru i glavarima zajednice pa reknu:
3 “This is a list of places we have surveyed: Ataroth, Dibon, Jazer, Nimrah, Heshbon, Elealeh, Sebam, Nebo, and Beon.
“Atarot, Dibon, Jazer, Nimra, Hešbon, Eleale, Sebam, Nebo i Beon -
4 These are the lands that Yahweh attacked before the community of Israel, and they are good places for livestock. We, your servants, have a lot of livestock.”
kraj što ga Jahve osvoji pred izraelskom zajednicom - kraj je pogodan za stočarstvo; a sluge tvoje bave se stočarstvom.
5 They said, “If we have found favor in your eyes, let this land be given to us, your servants, as a possession. Do not make us cross over the Jordan.”
Ako smo stekli blagonaklonost u tvojim očima”, nastave, “neka se ovaj kraj dade u posjed tvojim slugama. Ne šalji nas preko Jordana!”
6 Moses replied to the descendants of Gad and Reuben, “Should your brothers go to war while you settle down here?
Mojsije odgovori Gadovcima i Rubenovcima: “Zar da vaša braća idu u rat, a vi da ostanete ovdje?
7 Why discourage the hearts of the people of Israel from going over into the land that Yahweh has given them?
Zašto odvraćate srca Izraelaca da ne prijeđu u zemlju koju im je Jahve predao?
8 Your fathers did the same thing when I sent them from Kadesh Barnea to examine the land.
Tako su učinili i vaši očevi kad sam ih poslao iz Kadeš Barnee da izvide zemlju.
9 They went up to the Valley of Eshkol. They saw the land and then discouraged the hearts of the people of Israel so that they refused to enter the land that Yahweh had given them.
Popeli su se do Eškola i razgledali zemlju, ali su onda ubili srčanost u Izraelcima da ne odu u zemlju koju im je Jahve dao.
10 Yahweh's anger was kindled on that day. He took an oath and said,
Onog dana Jahve planu gnjevom. Zakle se i reče:
11 'Surely none of the men who came up out of Egypt, from twenty years old and up, will see the land about which I swore to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, because they have not completely followed me, except for
'Ljudi što su izišli iz Egipta, kojima je dvadeset ili više godina, jer me nisu vjerno slijedili, nikad neće vidjeti zemlju što sam je pod zakletvom obećao Abrahamu, Izaku i Jakovu!'
12 Caleb son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite, and Joshua son of Nun. Only Caleb and Joshua have completely followed me.'
Jahvu su jedino vjerno slijedili Kenižanin Kaleb, sin Jefuneov, i sin Nunov Jošua.
13 So Yahweh's anger was kindled against Israel. He made them wander around in the wilderness for forty years until all the generation who had done evil in his sight was destroyed.
Jahve je gnjevom planuo na Izraelce pa ih je pustinjom povlačio četrdeset godina, sve dok ne pomrije sav naraštaj što je u očima Jahvinim zlo postupio.
14 Look, you have risen up in your fathers' place, like just more sinful men, to add to Yahweh's burning anger toward Israel.
A sad vi - grešni naraštaj - ustajete namjesto svojih očeva da još povećate srdžbu Jahvinu na Izraela.
15 If you turn away from following him, he will again leave Israel in the wilderness and you will have destroyed all this people.”
Ako se od njega odvratite, on će još produžiti vaš boravak u pustinji; tako ćete upropastiti sav taj narod.”
16 So they came near Moses and said, “Allow us to build fences here for our cattle and cities for our families.
Onda se oni primaknu k njemu i reknu: “Mi bismo ovdje podigli torove za svoje blago i gradove za svoju nejačad,
17 However, we ourselves will be ready and armed to go with Israel's army until we have led them into their place. But our families will live in the fortified cities because of the other people who still live in this land.
a sami ćemo pograbiti oružje i poći na čelu Izraelaca dok ih ne dovedemo na njihovo mjesto. Naša nejačad neka ostane - zbog stanovništva ove zemlje - u utvrđenim gradovima.
18 We will not return to our houses until every one of the people of Israel has obtained his inheritance.
Mi se svojim kućama nećemo vraćati sve dok svaki Izraelac ne zaposjedne svoju baštinu.
19 We will not inherit the land with them on the other side of the Jordan, because our inheritance is here on the east side of the Jordan.”
S njima nećemo dijeliti svoje posjede s onu stranu Jordana niti dalje, jer će nas zapasti naša baština s ovu stranu, na istok od Jordana.”
20 So Moses replied to them, “If you do what you say, if you arm yourselves to go before Yahweh to war,
Mojsije im reče: “Ako tako uradite, ako pođete pred Jahvom u boj;
21 then every one of your armed men must cross over the Jordan before Yahweh, until he has driven out his enemies from before him
ako vi svi naoružani prijeđete Jordan pred Jahvom dok on ne rastjera ispred sebe svoje neprijatelje:
22 and the land is subdued before him. Then afterward you may return. You will be guiltless toward Yahweh and toward Israel. This land will be your possession before Yahweh.
tada, kad zemlja bude pokorena Jahvi, vi ćete se moći vratiti. Tako ćete biti oslobođeni odgovornosti prema Jahvi i prema Izraelu, a ova će zemlja postati pred Jahvom vaše vlasništvo.
23 But if you do not do so, look, you will have sinned against Yahweh. Be sure that your sin will find you out.
Ali ako tako ne uradite, sagriješit ćete protiv Jahve i znajte da će vas stići kazna za vaš grijeh.
24 Build cities for your families and pens for your sheep; then do what you have said.”
Sazidajte, dakle, gradove za svoju nejačad i torove za svoju stoku, ali izvršite što ste obećali.”
25 The descendants of Gad and Reuben spoke to Moses and said, “Your servants will do as you, our master, commands.
Gadovci i Rubenovci odgovore Mojsiju: “Tvoje će sluge učiniti kako gospodar naš nalaže.
26 Our little ones, our wives, our flocks, and all our livestock will stay there in the cities of Gilead.
Naša nejačad, naše žene, naša stoka i sve naše blago neka ostanu ondje u gileadskim gradovima,
27 However, we, your servants, will cross over before Yahweh to battle, every man who is armed for war, as you, our master, say.”
a tvoje sluge, svi koji su za boj sposobni, poći će pred Jahvom u boj, kako naš gospodar nalaže.”
28 So Moses gave instructions concerning them to Eleazar the priest, to Joshua son of Nun, and to the leaders of the ancestor's clans in the tribes of the people of Israel.
Tada za njih Mojsije izda nalog svećeniku Eleazaru, Nunovu sinu Jošui i glavarima obitelji izraelskih plemena.
29 Moses said to them, “If the descendants of Gad and Reuben cross over the Jordan with you, every man who is armed to battle before Yahweh, and if the land is subdued before you, then you will give them the land of Gilead as a possession.
I reče im Mojsije: “Ako Gadovci i Rubenovci, svi oni koji nose oružje, s vama prijeđu Jordan da se bore pred Jahvom i zemlja bude pokorena vama, onda im dajte gileadsku zemlju u vlasništvo.
30 But if they do not cross over with you armed, then they will acquire their possessions among you in the land of Canaan.”
Ali ako ne prijeđu naoružani s vama, neka dobiju baštinu među vama u zemlji kanaanskoj.”
31 So the descendants of Gad and Reuben answered and said, “As Yahweh has said to us, your servants, this is what we will do.
Nato odgovore Gadovci i Rubenovci: “Što je god Jahve rekao tvojim slugama, to ćemo učiniti.
32 We will cross over armed before Yahweh into the land of Canaan, but our possessed inheritance will remain with us on this side of the Jordan.”
Mi ćemo naoružani prijeći pred Jahvom u zemlju kanaansku, ali neka nam bude posjed naše baštine s ove strane Jordana.”
33 So to the descendants of Gad and Reuben, and also to the half tribe of Manasseh son of Joseph, Moses gave the kingdom of Sihon, king of the Amorites, and of Og, king of Bashan. He gave to them the land, and distributed to them all its cities with their borders, the cities of the land around them.
I tako njima - Gadovcima, Rubenovcima i polovici plemena Manašea, sina Josipova - dadne kraljevstvo amorejskoga kralja Sihona i kraljevstvo bašanskoga kralja Oga, zemlju s gradovima u njihovim granicama, gradove okolne zemlje.
34 The descendants of Gad rebuilt Dibon, Ataroth, Aroer,
Gadovci sagrade: Dibon, Atarot i Aroer,
35 Atroth Shophan, Jazer, Jogbehah,
Atrot Šofan, Jazer, Jogbohu,
36 Beth Nimrah, and Beth Haran as fortified cities with pens for sheep.
Bet Nimru i Bet Haran, utvrđene gradove i torove za stada.
37 The descendants of Reuben rebuilt Heshbon, Elealeh, Kiriathaim,
Rubenovci sagrade: Hešbon, Eleale, Kirjatajim,
38 Nebo, Baal Meon—their names were later changed, and Sibmah. They gave other names to the cities that they rebuilt.
Nebo, Baal Meon - nazivi su izmijenjeni - i Šibmu. Oni prozovu svojim imenima gradove koje su oni podigli.
39 The descendants of Machir son of Manasseh went to Gilead and took it away from the Amorites who were in it.
Sinovi Makira, sina Manašeova, odu u Gilead, osvoje ga i protjeraju Amorejce koji bijahu ondje.
40 Then Moses gave Gilead to Machir son of Manasseh, and his people settled there.
Mojsije preda Gilead Manašeovu sinu Makiru, i on se u njemu nastani.
41 Jair son of Manasseh went and captured its towns and called them Havvoth Jair.
A Manašeov sin Jair ode te zauzme njihova sela pa ih prozva “Jairova sela”.
42 Nobah went and captured Kenath and its villages, and he called it Nobah, after his own name.
Potom ode Nobah i zauzme Kenat i njegova područja te ga nazove svojim imenom “Nobah”.
