Ponovljeni Zakon 11
1 Ljubi dakle Gospoda Boga svojega, i izvršuj jednako što je zapovjedio da izvršuješ, i uredbe njegove, i zakone njegove i zapovijesti njegove.
“[Because of all that] Yahweh your God [has done for you], you must love him and continually obey all his rules and regulations and commandments.
2 I poznajte danas što vaši sinovi ne znaju niti vidješe, karanje Gospoda Boga svojega, velièanstvo njegovo, krjepku ruku njegovu i mišicu njegovu podignutu,
It was you and your ancestors, not your children, whom he disciplined [by causing all of you to have/experience difficulties]. So, starting today, continue to think about how very great and very powerful he is [DOU, MTY].
3 I znake njegove i djela njegova, što uèini usred Misira na Faraonu caru Misirskom i na svoj zemlji njegovoj,
Think about the various miracles [DOU] that he performed in Egypt. Think about what he did to the king of Egypt and to his country.
4 I što uèini vojsci Misirskoj, konjma i kolima njihovijem, kako uèini, te ih voda Crvenoga Mora potopi kad vas tjerahu, i zatr ih Gospod do današnjega dana,
Think about what he did to the army of Egypt, to their horses and their chariots. Think about how he caused the Red Sea to flood/cover over them while they were pursuing your ancestors, and how the army of Egypt was completely (wiped out/destroyed).
5 I što vama uèini u pustinji dokle ne doðoste do ovoga mjesta,
Think about what Yahweh did for your ancestors in the desert before you arrived at this place.
6 I što uèini Datanu i Avironu sinovima Elijava sina Ruvimova, kako zemlja otvori usta svoja i proždrije njih i porodice njihove i šatore njihove i sve blago njihovo što imahu, usred Izrailja.
Think about what he did to Dathan and Abiram, the two sons of Eliab from the tribe of Reuben. While all of your ancestors were watching, the earth split open, and they fell into the opening [and disappeared], along with their families and their tents, their servants, and their animals.
7 Jer vaše oèi vidješe sva djela Gospodnja velika, koja uèini.
You [SYN] and your ancestors have seen all these miracles that Yahweh performed.
8 Zato držite sve zapovijesti koje vam ja danas zapovijedam, da biste se ukrijepili i naslijedili zemlju, u koju idete da je naslijedite;
So, obey all the commandments that I am giving you today, in order that you will be strong and able to cross the river and occupy the land that you are about to enter,
9 I da bi vam se produljili dani u zemlji, za koju se zakle Gospod ocima vašim da æe je dati njima i sjemenu njihovu, zemlju, u kojoj teèe mlijeko i med.
and in order that you will live for a long time in that land, the land that Yahweh solemnly promised your ancestors that he would give to them and to their descendants, a land that is very fertile [IDM].
10 Jer zemlja u koju ideš da je naslijediš nije kao zemlja Misirska iz koje ste izišli, gdje si sijao svoje sjeme i zalijevao na svojima nogama kao vrt od zelja;
The land that you are about to enter and occupy is not like the land of Egypt, where your ancestors lived. In Egypt, after they planted seeds, it was necessary for them to work hard [MTY] to water [the plants that grew].
11 Nego je zemlja u koju idete da je naslijedite zemlja u kojoj su brda i doline, i natapa je dažd nebeski;
But the land that you are about to enter is a land where there are many hills and valleys, where there is plenty of rain.
12 Zemlja kojom se stara Gospod Bog tvoj i na koju su jednako obraæene oèi Gospoda Boga tvojega od poèetka godine do kraja.
Yahweh takes care of that land. He [SYN] watches over it every day, from the beginning of each year to the end of each year.
13 Zato ako dobro uzaslušate zapovijesti, koje vam ja zapovijedam danas, ljubeæi Gospoda Boga svojega i služeæi mu svijem srcem svojim i svom dušom svojom,
Today I am commanding you to love Yahweh our God and to serve him with your entire inner beings. If you do that,
14 Tada æu davati dažd zemlji vašoj na vrijeme, i rani i pozni, i sabiraæeš žito svoje i vino svoje i ulje svoje;
each year he will send rain on your land at the (right times/times when it is needed), (in the autumn/at the end of the dry season) and (in the spring/before the next dry season starts). As a result, you will have grain and [grapes to make] wine and [olives to make olive] oil.
15 I za stoku æu tvoju dati travu u polju tvojem; i ješæeš i biæeš sit.
And he will cause grass to grow in your fields for your livestock [to eat]. You will have all the food that you want.
16 Èuvajte se da se ne prevari srce vaše da se odmetnete i služite tuðim bogovima i poklanjate im se;
“But I warn you, do not turn away from Yahweh our God and start to worship other gods,
17 Da se ne bi razgnjevio Gospod na vas i zatvorio nebo da ne bude dažda, i zemlja da ne da roda svojega, te biste brzo izginuli u dobroj zemlji koju vam Gospod daje.
because if you do that, Yahweh will become very angry with you. He will prevent any rain from falling. As a result, the crops will not grow, and you will soon die [from hunger] in the good land that Yahweh is about to give to you.
18 Nego složite ove rijeèi moje u srce svoje i u dušu svoju, i vežite ih za znak sebi na ruku, i neka vam budu kao poèeonik meðu oèima vašim.
So, keep thinking [IDM] about these commands. Write them [on tiny scrolls] and fasten them to your arms/wrists, and write them on bands that you fasten to your foreheads [to help you to remember them].
19 I uèite ih sinove svoje govoreæi o njima kad sjediš u kuæi svojoj i kad ideš putem, i kad liježeš i kad ustaješ.
Teach them to your children again and again. Talk about them [all the time]: When you are in your houses and when you are walking outside; talk about them when you are lying down at night and when you are getting up in the morning.
20 I napiši ih na dovratnicima doma svojega i na vratima svojim,
Write them on the doorposts and on the gates of your houses.
21 Da bi se umnožili dani vaši i dani sinova vaših po zemlji, za koju se zakleo Gospod ocima vašim da æe im je dati, kao dani nebu nad zemljom.
Do that in order that you and your children will live for a long time in the land that Yahweh promised to our ancestors that he would give to them. That land will belong to you [and your descendants] as long as there is a sky above the earth.
22 Jer ako dobro uzdržite sve ove zapovijesti koje vam ja zapovijedam da tvorite ljubeæi Gospoda Boga svojega, i hodeæi svijem putovima njegovijem i njega se držeæi,
“Faithfully continue to obey what I am commanding you to do—to love Yahweh our God, and to conduct your lives as he wants you to do, and to (be faithful to/have a close relationship with) him.
23 Tada æe otjerati Gospod sve ove narode ispred vas, i naslijediæete narode veæe i jaèe nego što ste sami.
If you do that, Yahweh will expel all the people-groups in that land as you advance, people-groups that are more numerous and more powerful than you are.
24 Svako mjesto na koje stupi stopalo noge vaše vaše æe biti; od pustinje do Livana, i od rijeke, rijeke Efrata, do mora zapadnoga biæe meða vaša.
All the ground [in that land] on which you walk will be yours. Your territory will extend from the desert [in the south] to the Lebanon [Mountains in the north], and from the Euphrates River [in the east] to the [Mediterranean] Sea in the west.
25 Neæe se niko održati pred vama; strah i trepet vaš pustiæe Gospod Bog vaš na svu zemlju na koju stupite, kao što vam kaza.
Yahweh our God will cause all the people in that land to be afraid of you, which is what he promised, with the result that no people-group will be able to stop you.
26 Gle, iznosim danas pred vas blagoslov i prokletstvo:
“Listen carefully: Today I am telling you [that Yahweh will either] bless [you or he will] curse you.
27 Blagoslov, ako uzaslušate zapovijesti Gospoda Boga svojega, koje vam ja danas zapovijedam;
If you obey the commandments of Yahweh our God that I am giving to you today, he will bless you.
28 A prokletstvo, ako ne uzaslušate zapovijesti Gospoda Boga svojega nego siðete s puta, koji vam ja danas zapovijedam, te poðete za drugim bogovima, kojih ne poznajete.
If you do not obey them, and if you turn away from him to worship other gods that you have never known about before, he will curse you.
29 I kad te uvede Gospod Bog tvoj u zemlju u koju ideš da je naslijediš, tada izreci blagoslov ovaj na gori Garizimu a prokletstvo na gori Evalu.
And when Yahweh brings you into the land that you are about to enter and occupy, [some of you must stand on top of] Gerizim Mountain and proclaim what will cause Yahweh to bless you, and [the others must stand on top of] Ebal Mountain and proclaim [what will cause Yahweh to] curse you.”
30 One su s onu stranu Jordana, iduæi k zapadu, u zemlji Hananeja koji žive u ravni prema Galgalu kod ravnice Moreške.
(Those two mountains are [RHQ] west of the Jordan [River], west of the Jordan Valley near the huge oak tree at Moreh [village] in the land where the Canaan people-group lives. They live close to the sacred trees near Gilgal.)
31 Jer æete prijeæi preko Jordana da uðete u zemlju koju vam daje Gospod Bog vaš da je naslijedite, i naslijediæete je i nastavaæete u njoj.
“You will soon cross the Jordan [River] to occupy the land that Yahweh our God is giving to you. When you enter that land and start to live there,
32 Gledajte dakle da tvorite sve ove uredbe i zakone koje ja danas iznosim pred vas.
be sure to obey all the rules and regulations that I am giving to you today.”
