< Ponovljeni Zakon 32 >
1 Slušaj, nebo, govoriæu; i zemlja neka èuje govor usta mojih.
Give ear, you heavens, and let me speak. Let the earth listen to the words of my mouth.
2 Neka se spusti kao dažd nauka moja, i neka padne kao rosa govor moj, kao sitan dažd na mladu travu i kao krupan dažd na odraslu travu.
Let my teaching drop down like the rain, let my speech distill like the dew, like the gentle rain on the tender grass, and like the showers on the plants.
3 Jer æu javljati ime Gospodnje; velièajte Boga našega.
For I will proclaim the name of Yahweh, and ascribe greatness to our God.
4 Djelo je te stijene savršeno, jer su svi putovi njegovi pravda; Bog je vjeran, bez nepravde; pravedan je i istinit.
The Rock, his work is perfect; for all his paths are just. He is the faithful God, without iniquity. He is just and upright.
5 Oni se pokvariše prema njemu; njihovo nevaljalstvo nije nevaljalstvo sinova njegovijeh; to je rod zao i pokvaren.
They have acted corruptly against him. They are not his children. It is their disgrace. They are a perverted and crooked generation.
6 Tako li vraæate Gospodu, narode ludi i bezumni? nije li on otac tvoj, koji te je zadobio? on te je naèinio i stvorio.
Do you reward Yahweh in this way, you foolish and senseless people? Is he not your father, the one who has created you? He made you and established you.
7 Opomeni se negdašnjih dana, pogledajte godine svakoga vijeka; pitaj oca svojega i on æe ti javiti, starije svoje i kazaæe ti.
Call to mind the days of ancient times, think about the years of many ages past. Ask your father and he will show you, your elders and they will tell you.
8 Kad višnji razdade našljedstvo narodima, kad razdijeli sinove Adamove, postavi meðe narodima po broju sinova Izrailjevih.
When the Most High gave the nations their inheritance— when he divided all of mankind, and he set the boundaries of the peoples, as he also fixed the number of their gods.
9 Jer je dio Gospodnji narod njegov, Jakov je uže našljedstva njegova.
For Yahweh's portion is his people; Jacob is his apportioned inheritance.
10 Naðe ga u zemlji pustoj, na mjestu strašnu gdje buèi pustoš; vodi ga unaokolo, uèi ga i èuva kao zjenicu oka svojega.
He found him in a desert land, and in the barren and howling wilderness; he shielded him and cared for him, he guarded him as the apple of his eye.
11 Kao što orao izmamljuje orliæe svoje, diže se nad ptiæima svojim, širi krila svoja, uzima ih i nosi na krilima svojim,
As an eagle that guards her nest and flutters over her young, Yahweh spread out his wings and took them, and carried them on his pinions.
12 Tako ga Gospod voðaše, i s njim ne bješe tuðega boga;
Yahweh alone led him; no foreign god was with him.
13 Voðaše ga na visine zemaljske da jede rod poljski, i davaše mu da sisa med iz stijene i ulje iz tvrdoga kamena,
He made him ride on high places of the land, and he fed him the fruits of the field; he nourished him with honey from the rock, and oil from the flinty crag.
14 Maslo od krava i mlijeko od ovaca s pretilinom od jaganjaca i ovnova Vasanskih i jaraca, sa srcem zrna pšeniènih; i pio si vino, krv od grožða.
He ate butter from the herd and drank milk from the flock, with fat of lambs, rams of Bashan and goats, with the finest of the wheat— and you drank foaming wine made from the juice of grapes.
15 Ali se Izrailj ugoji, pa se stade ritati; utio si, udebljao i zasalio; pa ostavi Boga koji ga je stvorio, i prezre stijenu spasenja svojega.
But Jeshurun grew fat and kicked— you grew fat, you were too fat, and you had eaten your fill— he abandoned the God who made him, and he rejected the Rock of his salvation.
16 Na revnost razdražiše ga tuðim bogovima, gadovima razgnjeviše ga.
They made Yahweh jealous by their strange gods; with their abominations they angered him.
17 Prinosiše žrtve ðavolima, ne Bogu, bogovima, kojih nijesu znali, novim, koji iz bliza doðoše, kojih se nijesu strašili oci vaši.
They sacrificed to demons, which are not God— gods they had not known, gods that recently appeared, gods your fathers did not fear.
18 Stijenu koja te je rodila zaboravio si; zaboravio si Boga stvoritelja svojega.
You have deserted the Rock, who became your father, and you forgot the God who gave you birth.
19 Kad to vidje Gospod, razgnjevi se na sinove svoje i na kæeri svoje,
Yahweh saw this and he rejected them, because his sons and his daughters provoked him so.
20 I reèe: sakriæu od njih lice svoje, vidjeæu kakav æe im biti pošljedak, jer su rod pokvaren, sinovi u kojima nema vjere.
“I will hide my face from them,” he said, “and I will see what their end will be; for they are a perverse generation, children who are unfaithful.
21 Oni me razdražiše na revnost onijem što nije Bog, razgnjeviše svojim taštinama; i ja æu njih razdražiti na revnost onijem koji nije narod, narodom ludijem razljutiæu ih.
They have made me jealous by what is not god and angered me by their worthless things. I will make them envious by those who are not a people; by a foolish nation I will make them angry.
22 Jer se oganj razgorio u gnjevu mojem, i gorjeæe do najdubljega pakla; spaliæe zemlju i rod njezin, i popaliæe temelje brdima. (Sheol )
For a fire is kindled by my anger and is burning to the lowest Sheol; it is devouring the earth and its harvest; it is setting on fire the foundations of the mountains. (Sheol )
23 Zgrnuæu na njih zla, strijele svoje pobacaæu na njih.
I will heap disasters on them; I will shoot all my arrows at them;
24 Glad æe ih cijediti, vruæice i ljuti pomori proždiraæe ih; i zube zvjerske poslaæu na njih i jed zmija zemaljskih.
They will be wasted by hunger and devoured by burning heat and bitter destruction; I will send on them the teeth of wild animals, with the poison of things that crawl in the dust.
25 Spolja æe ih ubijati maè, a po klijetima strah, i momka i djevojku, dijete na sisi i sijeda èovjeka.
Outside the sword will bereave, and in the bedrooms terror will do so. It will destroy both young man and virgin, the nursing baby, and the man of gray hairs.
26 Rekao bih: rasijaæu ih po svijem uglovima zemaljskim, uèiniæu da nestane spomena njihova izmeðu ljudi,
I said that I would scatter them far away, that I would make the memory of them to cease from among mankind.
27 Da mi nije do mržnje neprijateljeve, da se ne bi neprijatelji njihovi ponijeli i rekli: ruka se naša uzvisila, a nije Gospod uèinio sve ovo.
Were it not that I feared the provocation of the enemy, and that their enemies would judge mistakenly, and that they would say, 'Our hand is exalted,' I would have done all this.
28 Jer su narod koji propada sa svojih namjera, i nema u njih razuma.
For Israel is a nation devoid of wisdom, and there is no understanding in them.
29 Kamo da su pametni, da razumiju ovo, i gledaju na pošljedak svoj!
Oh, that they were wise, that they understood this, that they would consider their coming fate!
30 Kako bi jedan gonio tisuæu a dvojica tjerala deset tisuæa, da ih nije stijena njihova prodala i Gospod ih predao?
How could one chase a thousand, and two put ten thousand to flight, unless their Rock had sold them, and Yahweh had given them up?
31 Jer stijena njihova nije kao naša stijena; neprijatelji naši neka budu sudije.
For our enemies' rock is not like our Rock, just as even our enemies admit.
32 Jer je èokot njihov od èokota Sodomskoga i iz polja Gomorskoga; grožðe je njihovo grožðe otrovno, puca su mu gorka.
For their vine comes from the vine of Sodom, and from the fields of Gomorrah; their grapes are grapes of poison; their clusters are bitter.
33 Vino je njihovo otrov zmajevski, i ljuti jed aspidin.
Their wine is the poison of serpents and the cruel venom of asps.
34 Nije li to sakriveno kod mene, zapeèaæeno u riznicama mojim?
Is not this plan secretly kept by me, sealed up among my treasures?
35 Moja je osveta i plata, u svoje vrijeme popuznuæe noga njihova, jer je blizu dan propasti njihove, i ide brzo što æe ih zadesiti.
Vengeance is mine to give, and recompense, at the time when their foot slips; for the day of disaster for them is near, and the things that are to come on them will hurry to happen.”
36 Sudiæe Gospod narodu svojemu, i žao æe mu biti sluga njegovijeh, kad vidi da je prošla snaga i da nema ništa ni od uhvaæenoga ni od ostavljenoga.
For Yahweh will give justice to his people, and he will pity his servants. He will see that their power is gone, and no one remains, either slaves or free people.
37 I reæi æe: gdje su bogovi njihovi? stijena u koju se uzdaše?
Then he will say, “Where are their gods, the rock in whom they took refuge?—
38 Koji salo od žrtava njegovijeh jedoše i piše vino od naljeva njihovijeh. Neka ustanu i pomogu vam, i neka vam budu zaklon.
The gods who ate the fat of their sacrifices and drank the wine of their drink offerings? Let them rise up and help you; let them be your protection.
39 Vidite sada da sam ja, ja sam, i da nema Boga osim mene. Ja ubijam i oživljujem, ranim i iscjeljujem, i nema nikoga ko bi izbavio iz moje ruke.
See now that I, even I, am God, and that there is no god besides me; I kill, and I make alive; I wound, and I heal, and there is no one who can save you from my might.
40 Jer podižem k nebu ruku svoju i kažem: ja sam živ dovijeka.
For I lift up my hand to heaven and say, 'As I live forever, I will act.
41 Ako naoštrim sjajni maè svoj i uzmem u ruku sud, uèiniæu osvetu na neprijateljima svojim i vratiæu onima koji mrze na me.
When I sharpen my glittering sword, and when my hand begins to bring justice, I will render vengeance on my enemies, and I will pay back those who hate me.
42 Opojiæu strijele svoje krvlju, i maè æe se moj najesti mesa, krvlju isjeèenijeh i zarobljenijeh, kad poènem osvetu na neprijateljima.
I will make my arrows drunk with blood, and my sword will devour flesh with the blood of the killed and the captives, and from the heads of the leaders of the enemy.'”
43 Veselite se narodi s narodom njegovijem, jer æe pokajati krv sluga svojih, i osvetiæe se neprijateljima svojim, i oèistiæe zemlju svoju i narod svoj.
Rejoice, you nations, with God's people, for he will avenge the blood of his servants; he will render vengeance on his enemies, and he will make atonement for his land, for his people.
44 I doðe Mojsije i izgovori sve rijeèi pjesme ove narodu, on i Isus sin Navin.
Moses came and recited all the words of this song in the ears of the people, he, and Joshua son of Nun.
45 A kad izgovori Mojsije sve rijeèi ove svemu Izrailju,
Then Moses finished reciting all these words to all Israel.
46 Reèe im: privijte srce svoje k svijem rijeèima koje vam ja danas zasvjedoèavam, i kazujte ih sinovima svojim da bi držali sve rijeèi ovoga zakona i tvorili ih.
He said to them, “Fix your mind on all the words that I have witnessed to you today, so that you may command your children to keep them, all the words of this law.
47 Jer nije prazna rijeè da za nju ne marite, nego je život vaš; i tom æete rijeèju produljiti dane svoje na zemlji, u koju idete preko Jordana da je naslijedite.
For this is no trivial matter for you, because it is your life, and through this thing you will prolong your days in the land that you are going over the Jordan to possess.”
48 U isti dan reèe Gospod Mojsiju govoreæi:
Yahweh spoke to Moses on that same day and said,
49 Izidi na ovu goru Avarimsku, na goru Navav, koja je u zemlji Moavskoj prema Jerihonu, i vidi zemlju Hanansku koju dajem sinovima Izrailjevijem u državu.
“Go up into this range of the mountains of Abarim, up Mount Nebo, which is in the land of Moab, opposite Jericho. You will look at the land of Canaan, which I am giving to the people of Israel as their possession.
50 I umri na gori na koju izideš, i priberi s k rodu svojemu, kao što je umro Aron brat tvoj na gori Oru i pribrao se k rodu svojemu.
You will die on the mountain that you go up, and you will be gathered to your people, as Aaron your fellow Israelite died on Mount Hor and was gathered to his people.
51 Jer mi zgriješiste meðu sinovima Izrailjevijem na vodi od svaðe u Kadisu, u pustinji Sinu, što me ne proslaviste meðu sinovima Izrailjevijem.
This will happen because you were unfaithful to me among the people of Israel at the waters of Meribah in Kadesh, in the wilderness of Zin; because you did not treat me with honor and respect among the people of Israel.
52 Pred sobom æeš vidjeti zemlju, ali neæeš u nju uæi, u zemlju koju dajem sinovima Izrailjevijem.
For you will see the land before you, but you will not go there, into the land that I am giving to the people of Israel.”
