< 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.
So then Joshua rose early in the morning, and they brake up from The Acacias and came as far as the Jordan, he and all the sons of Israel, —and they lodged there before they passed over.
2 A poslije tri dana proðoše upravitelji kroz oko,
And it came to pass, after three days, that the officers went 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 commanded the people saying, When ye see the ark of the covenant of Yahweh your God, and, the priests the Levites, bearing it, ye also, shall break up out of your place, and come after it.
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.
Yet shall there be, a distance, between you and it, about two thousand cubits by measure, —do not come near unto it that ye may get to know the way by which ye must go, for ye have not passed this way, heretofore.
5 I Isus reèe narodu: osveštajte se, jer æe sjutra uèiniti Gospod èudesa meðu vama.
Then said Joshua unto the people, Hallow yourselves, —for, to-morrow, will Yahweh do in your midst, wonderful things.
6 Potom reèe Isus sveštenicima govoreæi: uzmite kovèeg zavjetni, i idite pred narodom. I uzeše kovèeg zavjetni i poðoše pred narodom.
And Joshua spake unto the priests, saying, Take ye up the ark of the covenant, and pass on before the people. So they took up the ark of the covenant, and went on before the people.
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.
Then said Yahweh unto Joshua: This day, will I begin to magnify thee in the eyes of all Israel, —who shall know, that, as I was with Moses, I will be with thee.
8 Zato ti zapovjedi sveštenicima koji nose kovèeg zavjetni, i reci: kad doðete na kraj vode Jordana, stanite u Jordanu.
Thou, therefore, shalt command the priests who am bearing the ark of the covenant, saying, —When ye are come as far as the edge of the waters of the Jordan, in the Jordan, shall ye stand.
9 I reèe Isus sinovima Izrailjevim: pristupite ovamo, i èujte rijeèi Gospoda Boga svojega.
Then said Joshua, unto the sons of Israel, —Draw near hither, and hear ye the words of Yahweh 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 Joshua said, Hereby, shall ye know, that a Living GOD is in your midst, —and that he will, certainly dispossess, from before you, the Canaanite and the Hittite, and the Hivite and the Perizzite, and the Girgashite, and the Amorite, and the Jebusite.
11 Evo, kovèeg zavjeta Gospoda svoj zemlji poæi æe pred vama preko Jordana.
Lo! the ark of the covenant of the Lord of all the earth, is about to pass before you into the Jordan.
12 Zato sada izberite dvanaest ljudi iz plemena Izrailjeva, po jednoga èovjeka iz svakoga plemena.
Now, therefore, take you twelve men, out of the tribes of Israel, —one man severally for 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 it shall be, when the soles of the feet of the priests who are bearing the ark of Yahweh, Lord of all the earth, do rest, in the waters of the Jordan, the waters of the Jordan, shall be cut off, the waters that are coming down from above, —and shall stand in one mound.
14 I kad se podiže narod iz šatora svojih da prijeðe preko Jordana, i sveštenici ponesoše kovèeg zavjetni pred narodom,
And it came to pass, when the people set out from their tents, to cross the Jordan, —with the priests, bearing the ark of the covenant before the people,
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
then, as the bearers of the ark came as far as the Jordan, and, the feet of the priests who were bearing the ark, were dipped in the edge of the waters, —the Jordan being full over all his banks, all the days of harvest,
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.
that the waters which were coming down from above, stood—rose up in one mound, a great way off, by the city Adam, which is beside Zarethan, and, they which were going down to the sea of the waste plain, the salt sea, failed—were cut off, —and, the people, passed over, right against Jericho.
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.
And the priests who were bearing the ark of the covenant of Yahweh, stood on dry ground, in the midst of the Jordan, with firm footing, —while all Israel were passing over on dry ground, until all the nation had made an end of passing over the Jordan.
