Brojevi 21
1 A kad èu Hananej car Aradski, koji življaše na jugu, da ide Izrailj putem kojim idoše uhode, on se pobi s njima i zarobi ih nekoliko.
The Canaanite, the king of Arad, who lived in the South, heard that Israel came by the way of Atharim. He fought against Israel, and took some of them captive.
2 Tada se Izrailj zavjetova Gospodu i reèe: ako daš ovaj narod meni u ruke, do temelja æu raskopati gradove njihove.
Israel vowed a vow to the LORD, and said, “If you will indeed deliver this people into my hand, then I will utterly destroy their cities.”
3 I usliši Gospod glas Izrailjev i dade mu Hananeje, a on zatr njih i gradove njihove, i prozva ono mjesto Orma.
The LORD listened to the voice of Israel, and delivered up the Canaanites; and they utterly destroyed them and their cities. The name of the place was called Hormah.
4 Potom poðoše od gore Ora k Crvenom Moru obilazeæi zemlju Edomsku, i oslabi duh narodu od puta.
They travelled from Mount Hor by the way to the Red Sea, to go around the land of Edom. The soul of the people was very discouraged because of the journey.
5 I vikaše narod na Boga i na Mojsija: zašto nas izvedoste iz Misira da izginemo u ovoj pustinji? Jer nema ni hljeba ni vode, a ovaj se nikaki hljeb veæ ogadio duši našoj.
The people spoke against God and against Moses: “Why have you brought us up out of Egypt to die in the wilderness? For there is no bread, there is no water, and our soul loathes this disgusting food!”
6 A Gospod pusti na narod zmije vatrene, koje ih ujedahu, te pomrije mnogo naroda u Izrailju.
The LORD sent venomous snakes amongst the people, and they bit the people. Many people of Israel died.
7 Tada doðe narod k Mojsiju i rekoše: zgriješismo što vikasmo na Gospoda i na tebe; moli Boga neka ukloni zmije od nas. I Mojsije se pomoli za narod.
The people came to Moses, and said, “We have sinned, because we have spoken against the LORD and against you. Pray to the LORD, that he take away the serpents from us.” Moses prayed for the people.
8 I Gospod reèe Mojsiju: naèini zmiju vatrenu, i metni je na motku, i koga ujede zmija, neka pogleda u nju, pa æe ozdraviti.
The LORD said to Moses, “Make a venomous snake, and set it on a pole. It shall happen that everyone who is bitten, when he sees it, shall live.”
9 I naèini Mojsije zmiju od mjedi, i metnu je na motku, i koga god ujede zmija on pogleda u zmiju od mjedi, i ozdravi.
Moses made a serpent of bronze, and set it on the pole. If a serpent had bitten any man, when he looked at the serpent of bronze, he lived.
10 Potom poðoše sinovi Izrailjevi, i stadoše u oko u Ovotu.
The children of Israel travelled, and encamped in Oboth.
11 I iz Ovota otišavši stadoše u oko na brdima Avarimskim u pustinji koja je prema Moavskoj s istoka.
They travelled from Oboth, and encamped at Iyeabarim, in the wilderness which is before Moab, towards the sunrise.
12 Odande otišavši stadoše u oko u dolini Zaredu.
From there they travelled, and encamped in the valley of Zered.
13 I odatle otišavši stadoše u oko na brodu na Arnonu, koji je u pustinji i izlazi od meðe Amorejske. Jer je Arnon meða Moavska izmeðu Moavaca i Amorejaca.
From there they travelled, and encamped on the other side of the Arnon, which is in the wilderness that comes out of the border of the Amorites; for the Arnon is the border of Moab, between Moab and the Amorites.
14 Zato se kaže u knjizi o ratovima Gospodnjim: na Vajeva u Sufi i na potoke Arnonske.
Therefore it is said in The Book of the Wars of the LORD, “Vaheb in Suphah, the valleys of the Arnon,
15 Jer ti potoci, koji dopiru do mjesta Ara, teku pokraj meðe Moavske.
the slope of the valleys that incline towards the dwelling of Ar, leans on the border of Moab.”
16 A otuda doðoše k Viru; to je studenac za koji bješe rekao Gospod Mojsiju: skupi narod, i daæu im vode.
From there they travelled to Beer; that is the well of which the LORD said to Moses, “Gather the people together, and I will give them water.”
17 Tada pjeva Izrailj pjesmu ovu: Diži se, studenèe; pripijevajte ga;
Then Israel sang this song: “Spring up, well! Sing to it,
18 Studenèe, koji kopaše knezovi, koji iskopaše poglavari narodni s onijem koji postavi zakon, palicama svojim. A iz pustinje otidoše u Mantanail,
the well, which the princes dug, which the nobles of the people dug, with the sceptre, and with their poles.” From the wilderness they travelled to Mattanah;
19 A iz Mantanaila u Nadil, a iz Nadila u Vamot,
and from Mattanah to Nahaliel; and from Nahaliel to Bamoth;
20 A iz Vamota u dolinu koja je u polju Moavskom kod gore Fazge i gleda u pustinju.
and from Bamoth to the valley that is in the field of Moab, to the top of Pisgah, which looks down on the desert.
21 Tada posla Izrailj poslanike k Sionu caru Amorejskom govoreæi:
Israel sent messengers to Sihon king of the Amorites, saying,
22 Pusti da proðemo kroz tvoju zemlju, neæemo svrtati ni u polje ni u vinograd, niti æemo piti vode iz studenaca; iæi æemo carskim putem dokle ne prijeðemo meðu tvoju.
“Let me pass through your land. We will not turn away into field or vineyard. We will not drink of the water of the wells. We will go by the king’s highway, until we have passed your border.”
23 Ali ne dade Sion Izrailju da proðe kroz zemlju njegovu, nego sabra Sion sav narod svoj, i izaðe na Izrailja u pustinju, i doðe u Jasu, i pobi se s Izrailjem.
Sihon would not allow Israel to pass through his border, but Sihon gathered all his people together, and went out against Israel into the wilderness, and came to Jahaz. He fought against Israel.
24 Ali ga isijeèe Izrailj oštrim maèem, i osvoji zemlju njegovu od Arnona pa do Javoka do sinova Amonovijeh, jer tvrda bješe meða sinova Amonovijeh.
Israel struck him with the edge of the sword, and possessed his land from the Arnon to the Jabbok, even to the children of Ammon; for the border of the children of Ammon was fortified.
25 I uze Izrailj sva ona mjesta i naseli se u svijem gradovima Amorejskim, u Esevonu i u svijem selima njegovijem.
Israel took all these cities. Israel lived in all the cities of the Amorites, in Heshbon, and in all its villages.
26 Jer Esevon bješe grad Siona cara Amorejskoga, koji bješe prvi zavojštio na cara Moavskoga i bješe mu uzeo svu zemlju njegovu do Arnona.
For Heshbon was the city of Sihon the king of the Amorites, who had fought against the former king of Moab, and taken all his land out of his hand, even to the Arnon.
27 Zato govore u prièi: hodite u Esevon, da se sagradi i podigne grad Sionov.
Therefore those who speak in proverbs say, “Come to Heshbon. Let the city of Sihon be built and established;
28 Jer oganj izaðe iz Esevona, plamen iz grada Sionova, i spali Ar Moavski i stanovnike na visini Arnonskoj.
for a fire has gone out of Heshbon, a flame from the city of Sihon. It has devoured Ar of Moab, The lords of the high places of the Arnon.
29 Teško tebi, Moave; propao si, narode Hamosov; dao je sinove svoje koji utekoše i kæeri svoje u ropstvo Sionu caru Amorejskom.
Woe to you, Moab! You are undone, people of Chemosh! He has given his sons as fugitives, and his daughters into captivity, to Sihon king of the Amorites.
30 Ali ih postrijeljasmo, propade Esevon do Devona, i potrsmo ih do Nofe, koja dopire do Medeve.
We have shot at them. Heshbon has perished even to Dibon. We have laid waste even to Nophah, Which reaches to Medeba.”
31 I tako živje Izrailj u zemlji Amorejskoj.
Thus Israel lived in the land of the Amorites.
32 Potom posla Mojsije da uhode Jazir, i uzeše sela oko njega, i izagnaše Amorejce koji bijahu ondje.
Moses sent to spy out Jazer. They took its villages, and drove out the Amorites who were there.
33 Potom obrativši se poðoše u Vasan; i izide Og car Vasanski pred njih, on i sav narod njegov na boj u Edrajin.
They turned and went up by the way of Bashan. Og the king of Bashan went out against them, he and all his people, to battle at Edrei.
34 A Gospod reèe Mojsiju: ne boj ga se; jer sam ga dao u tvoje ruke i sav narod njegov i zemlju njegovu; i uèini mu kako si uèinio Sionu caru Amorejskom koji življaše u Esevonu.
The LORD said to Moses, “Don’t fear him, for I have delivered him into your hand, with all his people, and his land. You shall do to him as you did to Sihon king of the Amorites, who lived at Heshbon.”
35 I pobiše ga i sinove njegove i sav narod njegov, da ne osta nijedan, i osvojiše zemlju njegovu.
So they struck him, with his sons and all his people, until there were no survivors; and they possessed his land.
