Ponovljeni Zakon 10
1 U to vrijeme reèe mi Gospod: isteši dvije ploèe od kamena kao što bjehu prve, i izidi k meni na goru, i naèini kovèeg od drveta.
“Then Yahweh said to me, ‘Cut two stone tablets like the first ones. And make a wooden chest to put them in. Then [bring the tablets] up to me on this mountain.
2 I napisaæu na tijem ploèama rijeèi koje su bile na prvijem ploèama što si razbio, pa æeš ih metnuti u kovèeg.
I will write on those tablets the same words that I wrote on the first tablets, the ones that you broke. Then you can put them in the chest.’
3 Tako naèinih kovèeg od drveta sitima, i istesah dvije ploèe od kamena, kao što bjehu prve, i izidoh na goru s dvjema ploèama u ruku.
“So I made a chest. I used wood from an acacia tree to make it. Then I cut two tablets of stone like the first ones, and I went up the mountain carrying the tablets.
4 I napisa na tijem ploèama što bješe prvo napisao, deset rijeèi, koje vam izgovori Gospod na gori isred ognja na dan zbora vašega; i dade mi ih Gospod.
There Yahweh wrote on the tablets the [same] Ten Commandments [that he had written on the first tablet]. They are the commandments that he told to your ancestors from the middle of the fire on the mountain, when they were gathered [at the bottom of the mountain]. Then Yahweh gave the tablets to me,
5 I vrativ se siðoh s gore, i metnuh ploèe u kovèeg koji naèinih, i ostaše ondje, kao što mi zapovjedi Gospod.
and I turned and went down the mountain. Then, just as he had commanded, I put them in the chest that I had made. And they are still there.”
6 A sinovi Izrailjevi poðoše od Virota sinova Jakanovijeh u Moseru. Ondje umrije Aron i ondje bi pogreben; a Eleazar sin njegov posta sveštenik na njegovo mjesto.
(Then, from the wells that belonged to the people of Jaakan, the Israeli people traveled to Moserah. There Aaron died and was buried, and his son Eleazar took his place and became the Supreme Priest.
7 Odande otidoše u Gadgad, a od Gadgada u Jotvatu, zemlju gdje ima mnogo potoka.
From there, the Israelis traveled to Gudgodah, and from there to Jotbathah, which was a place that had many streams.
8 U to vrijeme odvoji Gospod pleme Levijevo da nose kovèeg zavjeta Gospodnjega, da stoje pred Gospodom i služe mu i da blagosiljaju u ime njegovo do današnjega dana.
At that time, Yahweh (set apart/appointed) the tribe of Levi to carry the chest that contained [the tablets on which were written] the Ten Commandments, and to stand in Yahweh’s presence [in the sacred tent], to offer sacrifices, and to pray for Yahweh to bless [the people. They are still doing those things] at the present time.
9 Zato nema pleme Levijevo dijela ni našljedstva s braæom svojom; Gospod je našljedstvo njegovo, kao što mu Gospod Bog tvoj kaza.
That is the reason that the tribe of Levi did not receive any land like the other tribes did. What they received was the work/privilege of being Yahweh’s [priests], which is what he said that they should do.)
10 A ja stajah na gori kao prije, èetrdeset dana i èetrdeset noæi; i usliši me Gospod i tada, i ne htje te Gospod zatrti,
“I stayed on the mountain 40 days and nights, just like I did the first time. [I prayed to] Yahweh, and he (answered my prayers/did what I requested) again and said that he would not destroy your ancestors.
11 Nego mi reèe Gospod: ustani i idi pred narodom ovijem da uðu u zemlju za koju sam se zakleo ocima njihovijem da æu im je dati, i da je naslijede.
Then Yahweh said to me, ‘Continue your journey, going in front of the people, to occupy the land that I vowed your ancestors that I would give to you.’”
12 Sada dakle, Izrailju, šta ište od tebe Gospod Bog tvoj, osim da se bojiš Gospoda Boga svojega, da hodiš po svijem putovima njegovijem i da ga ljubiš i služiš Gospodu Bogu svojemu iz svega srca svojega i iz sve duše svoje,
“Now, you Israeli people, [I will tell you] [RHQ] what Yahweh our God requires/demands that you do. He requires you to revere him, to conduct your lives as he wants you to, to love him, and to serve him wholeheartedly [DOU],
13 Držeæi zapovijesti Gospodnje i uredbe njegove, koje ti ja danas zapovijedam, da bi ti bilo dobro?
and to obey all of his commandments [DOU] which I am giving to you today for your benefit.
14 Gle, Gospoda je Boga tvojega nebo, i nebo nad nebesima, zemlja, i sve što je na njoj.
“Do not forget that Yahweh our God owns even the sky and everything that is in it. He also owns the earth and everything that is on it.
15 Ali samo tvoji oci omilješe Gospodu, i izabra sjeme njihovo nakon njih, vas izmeðu svijeh naroda, kao što se vidi danas.
But [in spite of owning all those things], Yahweh loved your ancestors, and from all the people-groups [on the earth] he chose us, their descendants, and we are still his people.
16 Zato obrežite srce svoje, i nemojte više biti tvrdovrati.
So you must stop sinning [MET] and stop being stubborn [IDM]!
17 Jer je Gospod Bog vaš Bog nad bogovima i gospodar nad gospodarima, Bog veliki, silni i strašni, koji ne gleda ko je ko niti prima poklona;
Yahweh our God is greater than all gods, and he is greater than all rulers. He is very powerful [DOU] and awesome. He (is impartial/does not do things that favor one (group/person) more than others), and he does not accept bribes.
18 Daje pravicu siroti i udovici; i ljubi došljaka dajuæi mu hljeb i odijelo.
He makes sure that orphans and widows are treated fairly. He loves even (foreigners/people from other countries) who live among us Israeli people, and he gives them food and clothes.
19 Ljubite dakle došljaka, jer ste bili došljaci u zemlji Misirskoj.
So you must love those foreigners too, because you were once foreigners when you were living in Egypt.
20 Boj se Gospoda Boga svojega, njemu služi i njega se drži, i njegovijem se imenom kuni.
Revere Yahweh our God and worship only him. (Be faithful to/Have a close relationship with) him, and say that he should punish you if you do not do what you promise.
21 On je hvala tvoja i on je Bog tvoj, koji tebe radi uèini velike i strašne stvari, koje vidješe oèi tvoje.
He is the one whom you must praise. He is our God, and we have seen the great and amazing things that he has done for us.
22 Sedamdeset duša bješe otaca tvojih kad siðoše u Misir; a sada uèini ti Gospod Bog tvoj te vas ima mnogo kao zvijezda nebeskih.
When our ancestors, [Jacob and his family], went down to Egypt, there were only seventy of them. But now Yahweh our God has caused us to be as numerous as the stars in the sky.”
