Joshua 17
1 This was the lot for the tribe of Manasseh, for he was the firstborn of Joseph. As for Machir the firstborn of Manasseh, the father of Gilead, because he was a man of war, therefore he had Gilead and Bashan.
Ždrijebom je dopao i dio plemenu Manašeovu, jer je Manaše bio prvenac Josipov. Makiru, prvencu Manašeovu, ocu Gileadovu - bijaše on ratnik bez premca - pripade Gilead i Bašan.
2 So this was for the rest of the children of Manasseh according to their families: for the children of Abiezer, for the children of Helek, for the children of Asriel, for the children of Shechem, for the children of Hepher, and for the children of Shemida. These were the male children of Manasseh the son of Joseph according to their families.
Dobili su svoj dio i ostali sinovi Manašeovi po svojim porodicama: sinovi Abiezerovi, sinovi Helekovi, sinovi Asrielovi; sinovi Šekemovi, sinovi Heferovi i sinovi Šemidini. To su muški potomci Manašea, sina Josipova, po svojim porodicama.
3 But Zelophehad, the son of Hepher, the son of Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, had no sons, but daughters. These are the names of his daughters: Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah.
A Selofhad, sin Hefera, sina Gileada, sina Makira, sina Manašeova, nije imao sinova nego samo kćeri. Evo im imena: Mahla, Noa, Hogla, Milka i Tirsa.
4 They came to Eleazar the priest, and to Joshua the son of Nun, and to the princes, saying, “The LORD commanded Moses to give us an inheritance among our brothers.” Therefore according to the commandment of the LORD he gave them an inheritance among the brothers of their father.
One dođoše pred svećenika Eleazara i pred Jošuu, sina Nunova, i pred glavare govoreći: “Jahve je zapovjedio Mojsiju da se i nama dade baština među našom braćom.” I dadoše im po Jahvinoj zapovijedi baštinu među braćom njihova oca.
5 Ten parts fell to Manasseh, in addition to the land of Gilead and Bashan, which is beyond the Jordan;
Tako je dopalo Manašeu deset dijelova, povrh gileadske i bašanske zemlje, koje su s onu stranu Jordana.
6 because the daughters of Manasseh had an inheritance among his sons. The land of Gilead belonged to the rest of the sons of Manasseh.
Kćeri Manašeove dobiše baštinu među njegovim sinovima, a zemlja gileadska pripala je drugim sinovima Manašeovim.
7 The border of Manasseh was from Asher to Michmethath, which is before Shechem. The border went along to the right hand, to the inhabitants of En Tappuah.
Međa je Manašeova išla od Ašera do Mikmetata, koji leži nasuprot Šekemu, a zatim zavijala desno prema Jašibu na izvoru Tapuahu.
8 The land of Tappuah belonged to Manasseh; but Tappuah on the border of Manasseh belonged to the children of Ephraim.
Pokrajina Tapuah pripadaše Manašeu, ali sam Tapuah na međi Manašeovoj pripadaše sinovima Efrajimovim.
9 The border went down to the brook of Kanah, southward of the brook. These cities belonged to Ephraim among the cities of Manasseh. The border of Manasseh was on the north side of the brook, and ended at the sea.
Međa je silazila do potoka Kane. Južno od potoka bili su i ovi gradovi što su Efrajimovim sinovima pripadali između Manašeovih gradova; a zemlja se Manašeova nalazila na sjeveru i izbijala na more.
10 Southward it was Ephraim’s, and northward it was Manasseh’s, and the sea was his border. They reached to Asher on the north, and to Issachar on the east.
Područje s juga pripadalo je Efrajimu, na sjeveru Manašeu, a more im bi međa; na sjeveru su graničili s Ašerom, a s Jisakarom na istoku.
11 Manasseh had three heights in Issachar, in Asher Beth Shean and its towns, and Ibleam and its towns, and the inhabitants of Dor and its towns, and the inhabitants of Endor and its towns, and the inhabitants of Taanach and its towns, and the inhabitants of Megiddo and its towns.
Manašeu pripadahu u Jisakaru i Ašeru: Bet-Šean sa svojim selima, Jibleam sa svojim selima, stanovnici Dora sa svojim selima, stanovnici En-Dora sa svojim selima, stanovnici Taanaka sa svojim selima, stanovnici Megida sa svojim selima; dakle: tri područja.
12 Yet the children of Manasseh couldn’t drive out the inhabitants of those cities; but the Canaanites would dwell in that land.
Ali Manašeovi sinovi nisu mogli osvojiti te gradove i zato su Kanaanci ostali u tom kraju.
13 When the children of Israel had grown strong, they put the Canaanites to forced labor, and didn’t utterly drive them out.
Ali kad su ojačali sinovi Izraelovi, nametnuše Kanaancima tlaku, ali ih nisu uspjeli protjerati.
14 The children of Joseph spoke to Joshua, saying, “Why have you given me just one lot and one part for an inheritance, since we are a numerous people, because the LORD has blessed us so far?”
Obrate se tada Josipovi sinovi Jošui i upitaju: “Zašto si nam dao u baštinu prema jednom ždrijebu, samo jedan dio, kad smo mnogobrojni i Jahve nas dosad blagoslivljao?”
15 Joshua said to them, “If you are a numerous people, go up to the forest, and clear land for yourself there in the land of the Perizzites and of the Rephaim, since the hill country of Ephraim is too narrow for you.”
Jošua im odgovori: “Kad ste narod mnogobrojan, pođite u šumu i krčite ondje sebi zemlje u periškoj i refaimskoj krajini, ako vam je pretijesna gora Efrajimova.”
16 The children of Joseph said, “The hill country is not enough for us. All the Canaanites who dwell in the land of the valley have chariots of iron, both those who are in Beth Shean and its towns, and those who are in the valley of Jezreel.”
A sinovi Josipovi rekoše: “Gora nam ova neće biti dosta, a svi Kanaanci koji žive u ravnici imaju željezna kola, oni što su u Bet-Šeanu i selima njegovim i oni koji su u dolini jizreelskoj.”
17 Joshua spoke to the house of Joseph, that is, to Ephraim and to Manasseh, saying, “You are a numerous people, and have great power. You shall not have one lot only;
Tada odgovori Jošua domu Josipovu, i Efrajimu i Manašeu: “Vi ste brojan narod i imate silnu snagu. Zato nećeš dobiti samo jedan ždrijeb:
18 but the hill country shall be yours. Although it is a forest, you shall cut it down, and it’s farthest extent shall be yours; for you shall drive out the Canaanites, though they have chariots of iron, and though they are strong.”
neka gora bude tvoja. Ako je šumovita, iskrči je pa će obronci biti posjed doma tvoga. Istjerat ćeš sigurno Kanaance ako i imaju željezna kola, ako i jesu jaki.”
