Isus Navin 3
1 I usta Isus ujutru rano, i kretoše se od Sitima i doðoše do Jordana on i svi sinovi Izrailjevi, i noæiše ondje a ne prijeðoše.
And so, Joshua arose in the night, and he moved the camp. And they departed from Shittim, and they went to the Jordan: he, and all the sons of Israel, and they remained there for three days.
2 A poslije tri dana proðoše upravitelji kroz oko,
After these things unfolded, announcers passed through the midst of the camp,
3 I zapovjediše narodu govoreæi: kad vidite kovèeg zavjeta Gospoda Boga svojega i sveštenike Levite gdje ga nose, poðite i vi s mjesta svojega i idite za njim.
and they began to proclaim: “When you will see the ark of the covenant of the Lord your God, and the priests of the stock of Levi carrying it, you also shall rise up and follow those who are going before you.
4 Ali neka bude daljina izmeðu vas i njega do dvije tisuæe lakata; bliže do njega ne primièite se, da biste poznali put kojim æete iæi, jer još nikada nijeste išli tijem putem.
And let there be, between you and the ark, the space of two thousand cubits, so that you may be able to see it from far away, and to know along which way you should advance. For you have not walked this way before. And be careful that you do not approach the ark.”
5 I Isus reèe narodu: osveštajte se, jer æe sjutra uèiniti Gospod èudesa meðu vama.
And Joshua said to the people: “Be sanctified. For tomorrow the Lord will accomplish miracles among you.”
6 Potom reèe Isus sveštenicima govoreæi: uzmite kovèeg zavjetni, i idite pred narodom. I uzeše kovèeg zavjetni i poðoše pred narodom.
And he said to the priests: “Take up the ark of the covenant, and go before the people.” And they fulfilled the orders, and they took it and walked before them.
7 A Gospod reèe Isusu: danas te poèinjem uzvišavati pred svijem Izrailjem da poznadu da æu i s tobom biti kao što sam bio s Mojsijem.
And the Lord said to Joshua: “Today I will begin to exalt you in the sight of all Israel, so that they may know that, just as I was with Moses, so also am I with you.
8 Zato ti zapovjedi sveštenicima koji nose kovèeg zavjetni, i reci: kad doðete na kraj vode Jordana, stanite u Jordanu.
Now instruct the priests, who are carrying the ark of the covenant, and say to them, ‘When you will have entered into a part of the water of the Jordan, stand still in it.’”
9 I reèe Isus sinovima Izrailjevim: pristupite ovamo, i èujte rijeèi Gospoda Boga svojega.
And Joshua said to the sons of Israel, “Approach to here, and listen to the word of the Lord your God.”
10 Potom reèe Isus: po ovom æete poznati da je Bog živi posred vas, i da æe doista odagnati ispred vas Hananeje i Heteje i Jeveje i Ferezeje i Gergeseje i Amoreje i Jevuseje:
And again, he said: “By this shall you know that the Lord, the living God, is in your midst, and that he shall scatter in your sight, the Canaanite and the Hittite, the Hivite and the Perizzite, likewise the Girgashite, and the Jebusite, and the Amorite.
11 Evo, kovèeg zavjeta Gospoda svoj zemlji poæi æe pred vama preko Jordana.
Behold, the ark of the covenant of the Lord of all the earth shall go before you through the Jordan.
12 Zato sada izberite dvanaest ljudi iz plemena Izrailjeva, po jednoga èovjeka iz svakoga plemena.
Prepare twelve men from the tribes of Israel, one from each tribe.
13 I èim sveštenici noseæi kovèeg zavjeta Gospoda Gospoda svoj zemlji stanu nogama svojim u vodi Jordanskoj, voda æe se u Jordanu rastupiti, te æe voda koja teèe ozgo stati u gomilu.
And when the priests who are carrying the ark of the Lord, the God of the entire earth, will have placed the steps of their feet in the waters of the Jordan, the waters that are lower will run down and pass away, and those that are approaching above will stand together in a mass.”
14 I kad se podiže narod iz šatora svojih da prijeðe preko Jordana, i sveštenici ponesoše kovèeg zavjetni pred narodom,
And the people departed from their tents, so that they might cross the Jordan. And the priests who were carrying the ark of the covenant were advancing before them.
15 I kad oni što nošahu kovèeg doðoše do Jordana, i sveštenici noseæi kovèeg okvasiše noge svoje na kraju vode jer je Jordan pun preko bregova svojih za cijelo vrijeme žetve
And as soon as they entered into the Jordan, and their feet were dipped in a portion of the water, (now the Jordan, since it was the time of the harvest, had filled the banks of its channel, )
16 Ustavi se voda što tecijaše ozgo, i stade u jednu gomilu vrlo nadaleko, od grada Adama, koji je kraj Zaretana; a što tecijaše dolje u more kraj polja, more slano, oteèe sasvijem; i narod prelažaše prema Jerihonu.
the descending waters stood still in one place, and, swelling up like a mountain, they were seen from far away, from the city that is called Adam, even as far as the place of Zarethan. But those that were lower ran down into the Sea of the Wilderness, (which is now called the Dead Sea, ) until they entirely passed away.
17 A sveštenici koji nošahu kovèeg zavjeta Gospodnjega stajahu na suhu usred Jordana tvrdo, i sav Izrailj iðaše po suhu, dokle sav narod ne prijeðe preko Jordana.
Then the people advanced opposite Jericho. And the priests who were carrying the ark of the covenant of the Lord were standing, fully-dressed, upon dry soil in the midst of the Jordan, and all the people passed over, through the channel that was dried up.
