Brojevi 31
1 Opet reèe Gospod Mojsiju govoreæi:
Yahweh spoke to Moses/me and said,
2 Osveti sinove Izrailjeve na Madijancima, pak æeš se onda pribrati k rodu svojemu.
“Before you die, [tell the] Israeli people that they should (pay back/get revenge on) the Midian people-group for what they did to you.”
3 I Mojsije reèe narodu govoreæi: opremite izmeðu sebe ljude na vojsku da idu na Madijance da uèine osvetu Gospodnju na Madijancima,
So Moses/I said to the people, “Get some men prepared for battle. Yahweh will enable them to (pay back/get revenge on) the Midian people-group [for what they did to us].
4 Po tisuæu od plemena, od svakoga plemena Izrailjeva opremite na vojsku.
Select 1,000 men from each tribe to fight.”
5 I dadoše od tisuæa Izrailjevijeh po tisuæu od svakoga plemena, dvanaest tisuæa opremiše na vojsku.
So 12,000 men prepared for fighting in the battle, 1,000 from each tribe.
6 I posla Mojsije po tisuæu od svakoga plemena na vojsku, i s njima Finesa sina Eleazara sveštenika, i u njega bjehu sudi sveti i trube.
When Moses/I sent them to the battle, Phinehas, the son of Eleazar the priest, went with them. He took with him some of the things from the Sacred Tent and the trumpets that would be blown to give the signal [to start the battle].
7 I zavojštiše na Madijance, kako zapovjedi Gospod Mojsiju, i pobiše sve muškinje.
The Israeli men fought the soldiers from the Midian people-group, as Yahweh had told Moses/me to tell them to do, and they killed every man from the Midian people-group.
8 Pobiše i careve Madijanske, s drugima koje im pobiše, Evina i Rokoma i Sura i Ura i Rovoka, pet careva Madijanskih, i Valama sina Veorova ubiše maèem.
Among those whom they killed were the five kings of the Midian people-group—Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur, and Reba. They also killed with a sword Balaam, the son of Beor.
9 I zarobiše sinovi Izrailjevi žene Madijanke i djecu njihovu, i zaplijeniše svu stoku njihovu, krupnu i sitnu, i sve blago njihovo.
They captured all the women and children of the Midian people-group and took away their cattle, their flocks of sheep, and herds of goats, and all their other possessions.
10 A mjesta njihova u kojima življahu i gradove njihove sve popališe ognjem.
Then they burned down all the houses in the towns and villages where the people of the Midian people-group lived,
11 I sve roblje i sav plijen, ljude i stoku, uzeše;
but they took home with them all the women and children and animals and possessions.
12 I povedoše k Mojsiju i Eleazaru svešteniku i ka zboru sinova Izrailjevijeh, i roblje i ostali plijen i dobit u oko na polju Moavskom, koje je na Jordanu prema Jerihonu.
They brought all these to Eliezer and Moses/me, and to the rest of the Israeli people who were at their/our camp on the plains where the Moab people-group lived, near the Jordan River, across from Jericho.
13 A Mojsije i Eleazar sveštenik i svi knezovi od zbora izidoše im na susret iz okola.
Eleazar and all the leaders of the people and Moses/I went outside the camp to greet/meet with them.
14 I Mojsije se razgnjevi na vojvode, na tisuænike i stotinare, koji se vraæahu s vojske;
But Moses/I was angry with some of the men who had returned from the battle. He/I was angry with the army officers and the men who were commanders of 1,000 men and those who were commanders of 100 men.
15 I reèe im Mojsije: a što ostaviste u životu sve žene?
He/I asked them, “Why did you allow the women to live [RHQ]?
16 Ta one po rijeèi Valamovoj navratiše sinove Izrailjeve da zgriješe Gospodu s Fegora, te doðe ona pogibija na narod Gospodnji.
They are the ones who did what Balaam suggested and urged/persuaded our people to worship Baal [instead of Yahweh]. As a result, Yahweh caused a plague to strike his people while they were at Peor.
17 Zato sada pobijte svu djecu mušku, i sve žene pobijte, koje su poznale èovjeka.
So, now you must kill all the boys of the Midian people-group, and also kill all the women who have had sex [EUP] with any man.
18 A djevojke, koje ne poznaše èovjeka, ostavite u životu.
Spare only the girls who are virgins [EUP]. You can keep them to be your [wives or your slaves].
19 A vi ostanite izvan okola sedam dana; svaki koji je ubio koga i koji se dotakao ubijenoga, oèistite se treæi dan i sedmi dan, sebe i roblje svoje.
All of you who have killed someone or touched the corpse of someone who was killed [in the battle] must stay outside the camp for seven days. On the third day and on the seventh day, you must [perform the ritual to] cause you and those whom you have captured to become acceptable to God again.
20 I sve haljine i sve stvari kožne i sve što je od kostrijeti i sve sudove drvene oèistite.
You must also wash your clothes and anything [that you took to the battle] that is made of leather or goat’s hair or wood.”
21 I reèe Eleazar sveštenik vojnicima, koji bijahu išli na vojsku: ovo je naredba i zakon što je Gospod zapovjedio Mojsiju:
Then Eleazar said to the soldiers who had returned from the battle, “This is what Yahweh has instructed Moses:
22 Zlato, srebro, mjed, gvožðe, kositer i olovo,
You must put into a fire any gold or silver or bronze or iron or tin or lead things [that you brought back from the battle].
23 Što god podnosi vatru, propustite kroz vatru, i oèistiæe se, ali pošto se oèisti vodom oèišæenja; a što god ne podnosi vatre, propustite kroz vodu.
Put everything that will not burn into the fire, and then they will be acceptable for you to use. But also sprinkle those things with the water that causes things and people to become acceptable to God. The things that would burn [if you put them] in a fire, sprinkle them with that water.
24 I operite haljine svoje sedmi dan, i biæete èisti; i onda æete uæi u oko.
On the seventh day, wash your clothes, and then you will become acceptable to God again. After you do that, you may return to the camp.”
25 Još reèe Gospod Mojsiju govoreæi:
Yahweh also said to Moses/me,
26 Izbroj sve što je zaplijenjeno, ljude i stoku, ti i Eleazar sveštenik i poglavari od plemena narodnijeh.
“Tell Eleazar and the leaders of the family groups that they must write down a list of all the goods, the women, and the animals that were captured [in the battle].
27 I razdijeli sve zaplijenjeno na dvoje: na vojnike koji su išli na vojsku i na sav zbor.
Then they must divide all those things, half given to the men who fought in the battle and the other half given to the rest of the people.
28 I uzmi dio za Gospoda od vojnika koji su išli na vojsku, po jednu dušu od pedeset, i od ljudi i od goveda i od magaraca i od ovaca.
From the men who fought in the battle, take one from every 500 people and from every 500 cattle and donkeys and sheep, to be a tax for me.
29 Od njihove polovine to uzmite, i podajte Eleazaru svešteniku za prinos Gospodu.
Take these things to Eleazar to (be my share/belong to me).
30 I od polovine koja dopade sinovima Izrailjevijem uzmi po jedno od pedeset, i od ljudi i od goveda i od magaraca i od ovaca i od svake stoke, i to podaj Levitima koji rade što treba za šator Gospodnji.
And from the half that belongs to the ordinary people, take one item from every 50. That includes people, cattle, donkeys, sheep, goats, and other animals. Give those things to the descendants of Levi who take care of my Sacred Tent.”
31 I uèini Mojsije i Eleazar sveštenik kako zapovjedi Gospod Mojsiju.
So Eleazar and Moses/I did what Yahweh commanded.
32 I bješe plijena, što osta od plijena koji zaplijeni vojska: šest stotina i sedamdeset i pet tisuæa ovaca,
There were 675,000 sheep, 72,000 cattle, 61,000 donkeys, and 32,000 virgins that they had captured from the Midian people-group.
33 I sedamdeset i dvije tisuæe goveda,
34 I šezdeset i jedna tisuæa magaraca,
35 I ženskinja što ne bješe poznalo èovjeka, svega trideset i dvije tisuæe duša.
36 A u polovini, u dijelu onijeh koji bijahu išli na vojsku, bješe na broj tri stotine i trideset i sedam tisuæa i pet stotina ovaca,
The men who fought in the battle took 337,000 sheep [from the battle],
37 A od toga dio Gospodu bješe šest stotina i sedamdeset i pet ovaca;
and they gave 675 of them to Yahweh.
38 I trideset i šest tisuæa goveda, a od toga dio Gospodu sedamdeset i dva;
They took 36,000 cattle and gave 72 of them to Yahweh.
39 I trideset tisuæa i pet stotina magaraca, a od toga dio Gospodu šezdeset i jedan;
They took 30,500 donkeys, and they gave 61 of them to Yahweh.
40 I šesnaest tisuæa duša ljudskih, a od toga dio Gospodu trideset i dvije duše.
They took 16,000 virgins, and they dedicated 32 of them to Yahweh.
41 I dade Mojsije Eleazaru svešteniku dio za prinos Gospodu, kao što mu zapovjedi Gospod.
Moses/I gave to Eleazar all [the animals] that had been given to Yahweh, as Yahweh had commanded.
42 A od druge polovine, koja dopade sinovima Izrailjevijem, koju uze Mojsije od ljudi koji bjehu išli na vojsku,
Moses/I separated what those who had fought in the battle received from what the other people received. The people had taken 337,500 sheep, 36,000 cattle, 30,500 donkeys, and 16,000 virgins,
43 A i u toj polovini, koja dopade zboru, bješe tri stotine i trideset i sedam tisuæa i pet stotina ovaca,
44 Trideset i šest tisuæa goveda,
45 Trideset tisuæa i pet stotina magaraca,
46 I šesnaest tisuæa duša ljudskih)
47 Od te polovine, koja dopade sinovima Izrailjevijem, uze Mojsije po jedno od pedeset, i od ljudi i od stoke, i dade Levitima koji rade što treba za šator Gospodnji, kao što mu Gospod zapovjedi.
From what the people received, Moses/I took one from every 50 items and dedicated them to Yahweh. That included animals and people. As Yahweh commanded, he/I gave them all to the descendants of Levi who took care of the Sacred Tent.
48 I pristupiše k Mojsiju vojvode, tisuænici i stotinari,
Then the army officers and those who commanded 1,000 men and those who commanded 100 men came to Moses/me.
49 I rekoše mu: sluge tvoje prebrojiše vojnike koji bijahu pod našom rukom, i nijednoga nije manje.
They said, “We, who are your servants, have counted the soldiers whom we command, and [we found that] none of them (is missing/has been killed).
50 Zato prinosimo Gospodu prinos, svaki što je ko zadobio, zlatnijeh zaklada, kopaèa, narukvica, prstena, obodaca i lanèiæa, da bi se oèistile duše naše pred Gospodom.
So [to thank Yahweh for that], we have brought to him a gift of the gold items that we found [after the battle]: Gold arm bands and bracelets and rings and earrings and necklaces. This will enable us to be forgiven for our sins.”
51 I uze Mojsije i Eleazar sveštenik od njih zlato, svakojake zaklade.
So Eleazar and Moses/I accepted the gold items that they brought.
52 A bješe svega zlata prinesenoga, što prinesoše Mojsiju tisuænici i stotinari, šesnaest tisuæa i sedam stotina i pedeset sikala.
The total of it weighed about (420 pounds/190 kg.).
53 A vojnici zadržaše sebi što koji bješe zaplijenio.
Each soldier had taken these things for himself.
54 I uzevši Mojsije i Eleazar zlato od tisuænika i stotinara, unesoše ga u šator od sastanka za spomen sinovima Izrailjevijem pred Gospodom.
Eleazar and Moses/I accepted these gold items from these commanders and put them in the Sacred Tent to remind the Israeli people about how Yahweh [had helped them defeat the Midian people-group].
