Numbers 14

1 And all the company lifteth up and give forth their voice, and the people weep during that night;

Vsa skupnost je povzdignila svoj glas in zajokala in ljudstvo je to noč jokalo.

2 and all the sons of Israel murmur against Moses, and against Aaron, and all the company say unto them, 'O that we had died in the land of Egypt, or in this wilderness, O that we had died!

Vsi Izraelovi otroci so godrnjali zoper Mojzesa in zoper Arona in celotna skupnost jima je rekla: »Da bi Bog dal, da bi umrli v egiptovski deželi! Ali da bi Bog dal, da bi umrli v tej divjini!

3 and why is Jehovah bringing us in unto this land to fall by the sword? our wives and our infants are become a prey; is it not good for us to turn back to Egypt?'

Zakaj nas je Gospod privedel v to deželo, da pademo pod mečem, da bi bile naše žene in naši otroci plen? Ali ne bi bilo za nas bolje, da se vrnemo v Egipt?«

4 And they say one unto another, 'Let us appoint a head, and turn back to Egypt.'

Drug drugemu so rekli: »Postavimo si poveljnika in se vrnimo v Egipt.«

5 And Moses falleth — Aaron also — on their faces, before all the assembly of the company of the sons of Israel.

Potem sta Mojzes in Aron padla na svoja obraza pred vsem zborom skupnosti Izraelovih otrok.

6 And Joshua son of Nun, and Caleb son of Jephunneh, of those spying the land, have rent their garments,

Nunov sin Józue in Jefunéjev sin Kaléb, ki sta bila izmed tistih, ki sta preiskala deželo, sta pretrgala svoja oblačila

7 and they speak unto all the company of the sons of Israel, saying, 'The land into which we have passed over to spy it, [is] a very very good land;

in spregovorila vsej skupini Izraelovih otrok, rekoč: »Dežela, skozi katero sva šla, da jo preiščeva, je silno dobra dežela.

8 if Jehovah hath delighted in us, then He hath brought us in unto this land, and hath given it to us, a land which is flowing with milk and honey;

Če se Gospod razveseljuje v nas, potem nas bo privedel v to deželo in nam jo izročil; deželo, v kateri tečeta mleko in med.

9 only, against Jehovah rebel not ye: and ye, fear not ye the people of the land, for our bread they [are]; their defence hath turned aside from off them, and Jehovah [is] with us; fear them not.'

Samo ne uprite se zoper Gospoda niti se ne bojte ljudstva dežele, kajti oni so za nas kruh. Njihova obramba je odšla od njih, Gospod pa je z nami. Ne bojte se jih.«

10 And all the company say to stone them with stones, and the honour of Jehovah hath appeared in the tent of meeting unto all the sons of Israel.

Toda vsa skupnost ju je zaukazala kamnati s kamni. In Gospodova slava se je prikazala v šotorskem svetišču skupnosti, pred vsemi Izraelovimi otroki.

11 And Jehovah saith unto Moses, 'Until when doth this people despise Me? and until when do they not believe in Me, for all the signs which I have done in its midst?

Gospod je rekel Mojzesu: »Doklej me bo to ljudstvo še dražilo? Kako dolgo bo, preden mi bodo verovali zaradi vseh znamenj, ki sem jih prikazal med njimi?

12 I smite it with pestilence, and dispossess it, and make thee become a nation greater and mightier than it.'

Udaril jih bom s kužno boleznijo in jih razdedinil in iz tebe bom naredil večji narod ter mogočnejši, kakor so oni.«

13 And Moses saith unto Jehovah, 'Then have the Egyptians heard! for Thou hast brought up with Thy power this people out of their midst,

Mojzes pa je Gospodu rekel: »Potem bodo Egipčani to slišali, (kajti v svoji moči si to ljudstvo privedel izmed njih)

14 and they have said [it] unto the inhabitant of this land, they have heard that Thou, Jehovah, [art] in the midst of this people, that eye to eye Thou art seen — O Jehovah, and Thy cloud is standing over them, — and in a pillar of cloud Thou art going before them by day, and in a pillar of fire by night.

in bodo to povedali prebivalcem te dežele, kajti slišali so, da si ti Gospod med tem ljudstvom, da si ti Gospod, viden iz obličja v obličje in da tvoj oblak stoji nad njimi in da greš pred njimi, podnevi v oblačnem stebru, ponoči pa v ognjenem stebru.

15 'And Thou hast put to death this people as one man, and the nations who have heard Thy fame have spoken, saying,

Torej če boš pobil vse to ljudstvo kakor enega človeka, potem bodo narodi, ki so slišali o tvojem slovesu, govorili, rekoč:

16 From Jehovah's want of ability to bring in this people unto the land which He hath sworn to them — He doth slaughter them in the wilderness.

›Ker Gospod tega ljudstva ni mogel privesti v deželo, ki jim jo je prisegel, jih je zato umoril v divjini.‹

17 'And now, let, I pray Thee, the power of my Lord be great, as Thou hast spoken, saying:

Sedaj te rotim, naj bo moč mojega Gospoda velika, glede na to, kakor si govoril, rekoč:

18 Jehovah [is] slow to anger, and of great kindness; bearing away iniquity and transgression, and not entirely acquitting, charging iniquity of fathers on sons, on a third [generation], and on a fourth; —

› Gospod je potrpežljiv in zelo usmiljen, ki odpušča krivičnost in prestopek in nikakor ne očisti krivega, ki obiskuje krivičnost očetov na otrocih do tretjega in četrtega rodu.‹

19 forgive, I pray Thee, the iniquity of this people, according to the greatness of Thy kindness, and as Thou hast borne with this people from Egypt, even until now.'

Odpusti, rotim te, krivičnost tega ljudstva, glede na veličino svojega usmiljenja in kakor si odpuščal temu ljudstvu, od Egipta, celo do sedaj.«

20 And Jehovah saith, 'I have forgiven, according to thy word;

Gospod je rekel: »Odpustil sem glede na tvojo besedo,

21 and yet, I live — and it is filled — the whole earth — [with] the honour of Jehovah;

vendar kakor resnično jaz živim, bo vsa zemlja napolnjena z Gospodovo slavo.

22 for all the men who are seeing My honour, and My signs, which I have done in Egypt, and in the wilderness, and try Me these ten times, and have not hearkened to My voice —

Ker so vsi tisti ljudje, ki so videli mojo slavo in moje čudeže, ki sem jih storil v Egiptu in v divjini in so me skušali sedaj teh desetkrat in niso prisluhnili mojemu glasu;

23 they see not the land which I have sworn to their fathers, yea, none of those despising Me see it;

zagotovo ne bodo videli dežele, ki sem jo prisegel njihovim očetom niti je ne bo videl nobeden izmed tistih, ki so me dražili.

24 and My servant Caleb, because there hath been another spirit with him, and he is fully after Me — I have brought him in unto the land whither he hath entered, and his seed doth possess it.

Toda ker je imel moj služabnik Kaléb, v sebi drugega duha in mi je popolnoma sledil, ga bom privedel v deželo, v katero je odšel, in njegovo seme jo bo vzelo v last.

25 'And the Amalekite and the Canaanite are dwelling in the valley; to-morrow turn ye and journey for yourselves into the wilderness — the way of the Red Sea.'

(Torej Amálečani in Kánaanci so prebivali v dolini.) Jutri se obrnite in se odpravite v divjino, po poti Rdečega morja.«

26 And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, and unto Aaron, saying,

Gospod je spregovoril Mojzesu in Aronu, rekoč:

27 'Until when hath this evil company that which they are murmuring against Me? the murmurings of the sons of Israel, which they are murmuring against Me, I have heard;

»Doklej bom še prenašal to zlo skupnost, ki godrnja zoper mene? Slišal sem mrmranja Izraelovih otrok, ki mrmrajo zoper mene.

28 say unto them, I live — an affirmation of Jehovah — if, as ye have spoken in Mine ears — so I do not to you;

Reci jim: › Kakor resnično jaz živim, ‹ govori Gospod, ›kakor ste govorili v moja ušesa, tako bom jaz storil vam.

29 in this wilderness do your carcases fall, even all your numbered ones, to all your number, from a son of twenty years and upward, who have murmured against Me;

Vaša trupla bodo padla v tej divjini in vsi, kar vas je bilo izmed vas preštetih, glede na vaše celotno število, od dvajset let stari in navzgor, ki ste godrnjali zoper mene.

30 ye — ye come not in unto the land which I have lifted up My hand to cause you to tabernacle in it, except Caleb son of Jephunneh, and Joshua son of Nun.

Zagotovo ne boste prišli v deželo, glede katere sem prisegel, da v njej prebivate, razen Jefunéjevega sina Kaléba in Nunovega sina Józueta.

31 'As to your infants — of whom ye have said, A spoil they are become — I have even brought them in, and they have known the land which ye have kicked against;

Toda vaše malčke, za katere ste rekli, da naj bi bili plen, te bom privedel noter in oni bodo spoznali deželo, ki ste jo vi prezirali.

32 as to you — your carcases do fall in this wilderness,

Toda kar se tiče vas, bodo vaša trupla padla v tej divjini.

33 and your sons are evil in the wilderness forty years, and have borne your whoredoms till your carcases are consumed in the wilderness;

Vaši otroci se bodo štirideset let potikali po divjini in nosili vaša vlačugarstva, dokler ne bodo vaša trupla propadla v divjini.

34 by the number of the days [in] which ye spied the land, forty days, — a day for a year, a day for a year — ye do bear your iniquities, forty years, and ye have known my breaking off;

Po številu dni, v katerih ste preiskovali deželo, torej štirideset dni, vsak dan za leto, boste nosili svoje krivičnosti, celó štirideset let in spoznali boste moj odmik od obljube.‹

35 I [am] Jehovah, I have spoken; if I do not this to all this evil company who are meeting against me; — in this wilderness they are consumed, and there they die.'

Jaz, Gospod, sem rekel: ›Zagotovo bom tako storil vsej tej zli skupnosti, ki je skupaj zbrana zoper mene. V tej divjini bodo použiti in tam bodo umrli.‹«

36 And the men whom Moses hath sent to spy the land, and they turn back and cause all the company to murmur against him, by bringing out an evil account concerning the land,

Možje, ki jih je Mojzes poslal, da preiščejo deželo, ki so se vrnili in vso skupnost pripravili, da je mrmrala zoper njega s prinašanjem obrekovanja nad deželo,

37 even the men bringing out an evil account of the land die by the plague before Jehovah;

celo ti možje, ki so nad deželo prinesli zlo poročilo, so zaradi kuge umrli pred Gospodom.

38 and Joshua son of Nun, and Caleb son of Jephunneh, have lived of those men who go to spy out the land.

Toda Nunov sin Józue in Jefunéjev sin Kaléb, ki sta bila izmed mož, ki so odšli, da preiščejo deželo, sta še vedno živela.

39 And Moses speaketh these words unto all the sons of Israel, and the people mourn exceedingly,

Mojzes je te stvari povedal vsem Izraelovim otrokom in ljudstvo je silno žalovalo.

40 and they rise early in the morning, and go up unto the top of the mountain, saying, 'Here we [are], and we have come up unto the place which Jehovah hath spoken of, for we have sinned.'

Vstali so zgodaj zjutraj in se povzpeli na vrh gore, rekoč: »Glej! Mi smo tukaj in šli bomo gor, na kraj, ki nam ga je Gospod obljubil, kajti grešili smo.«

41 And Moses saith, 'Why [is] this? — ye are transgressing the command of Jehovah, and it doth not prosper;

Mojzes je rekel: »Zakaj sedaj prestopate Gospodovo zapoved? Toda to ne bo uspelo.

42 go not up, for Jehovah is not in your midst, and ye are not smitten before your enemies;

Ne pojdite gor, kajti Gospoda ni med vami, da ne boste udarjeni pred svojimi sovražniki.

43 for the Amalekite and the Canaanite [are] there before you, and ye have fallen by the sword, because that ye have turned back from after Jehovah, and Jehovah is not with you.'

Kajti Amalečani in Kánaanci so tam pred vami in vi boste padli pod mečem, ker ste obrnjeni proč od Gospoda, zato Gospod ne bo z vami.«

44 And they presume to go up unto the top of the mountain, and the ark of the covenant of Jehovah and Moses have not departed out of the midst of the camp.

Vendar pa so si predrznili, da gredo na vrh hriba. Vendar skrinja Gospodove zaveze in Mojzes nista odšla iz tabora.

45 And the Amalekite and the Canaanite who are dwelling in that mountain come down and smite them, and beat them down — unto Hormah.

Potem so prišli dol Amálečani in Kánaanci, ki so prebivali na tem hribu in jih udarili ter porazili, celó do Horme.
