5 Mojzes 33
1 To je blagoslov, s katerim je Mojzes, Božji mož, pred svojo smrtjo blagoslovil Izraelove otroke.
And this is the blessing, wherewith Moses, the man of God, blessed the children of Israel before his death.
2 Rekel je: » Gospod je prišel s Sinaja in se iz Seírja dvignil k njim. On sije z gore Parán in prišel je z deset tisoči svetih. Iz njegove desnice je šla zanje ognjena postava.
And he said, The Lord came from Sinai, and rose up from Seir unto them: he shone forth from mount Paran, and he came from among myriads of saints; from his right hand he gave a fiery law unto them.
3 Da, ljubil je ljudstvo. Vsi njegovi sveti so v tvoji roki in usedli so se pri tvojih stopalih; vsak bo prejel od tvojih besed.
Yea, thou also lovedst the tribes; all their saints were in thy hand; and they, prostrate before thy feet, received thy words.
4 Mojzes nam je zapovedal postavo, torej dediščino Jakobove skupnosti.
“The law which Moses commanded us, is the inheritance of the congregation of Jacob.”
5 In on je bil kralj v Ješurúnu, ko so se zbrali skupaj poglavarji ljudstva in so bili Izraelovi rodovi zbrani skupaj.
Thus became he king in Yeshurun, when the heads of the people were assembled, as one the tribes of Israel.
6 Naj Ruben živi in ne umre in naj njegovih mož ne bo malo.«
May Reuben live, and not die; and may not his men be few.
7 To je blagoslov za Juda. Rekel je: »Prisluhni, Gospod, Judovemu glasu in privedi ga k svojemu ljudstvu. Naj mu njegove roke zadoščajo in ti mu bodi pomoč pred njegovimi sovražniki.«
And this is [the blessing] of Judah, and he said, Hear, Lord, the voice of Judah, and bring him unto his people: let the power of his hands contend for him; and be thou a help to him from his adversaries.
8 O Léviju je rekel: » Naj bosta tvoj Tumím in tvoj Urím s tvojim svetim, ki si ga preizkusil pri Masi in s katerim si se prepiral pri vodah Meríbe,
And of Levi he said, Thy Thummim and thy Urim are with thy holy man, whom thou didst prove at Massah, and with whom thou didst strive at the waters of Meribah;
9 ki je svojemu očetu in svoji materi rekel: ›Nisem ga videl.‹ Niti ni priznal svojih bratov niti spoznal svojih lastnih otrok, kajti obeležili so tvojo besedo in se držali tvoje zaveze.
Who said of his father and of his mother, I have not seen him; and who did not acknowledge his brothers, nor regarded his own children; for they observe thy word, and thy covenant they keep.
10 Jakoba bodo učili tvojih sodb in Izraela tvoje postave. Pred teboj bodo postavili kadilo in celotno žgalno daritev na tvoj oltar.
They shall teach thy ordinances unto Jacob, and thy law unto Israel: they shall put incense before thee, and whole burnt-sacrifice upon thy altar.
11 Blagoslovi Gospod njegovo imetje in sprejmi delo njegovih rok. Skozi ledja udari tiste, ki vstajajo zoper njega in izmed tistih, ki ga sovražijo, da ne vstanejo ponovno.«
Bless, O Lord, his substance, and receive favorably the work of his hands: crush the loins of those that rise up against him, and those that hate him, that they cannot rise again.
12 In o Benjaminu je rekel: »Ljubljen od Gospoda bo varno prebival pri njem in Gospod ga bo ves dan pokrival in prebival bo med njegovimi rameni.«
And of Benjamin he said, The beloved of the Lord [is he], he shall dwell in safety by him: he will shield him all the day long, and between his shoulders will he dwell.
13 O Jožefu je rekel: »Njegova dežela naj bo blagoslovljena od Gospoda, za dragocene stvari z neba in za roso in za globino, ki leži spodaj
And of Joseph he said, Blessed of the Lord be his land, through the precious gift of heaven, through the dew, and through the deep that coucheth beneath,
14 in za dragoceno sadje, porojeno s soncem in za dragocene stvari, navržene z luno
And through the precious fruits brought forth by the sun, and through the precious things put forth by the moon,
15 in za vodilne stvari starodavnih gora in za dragocene stvari trajnih hribov
And through the best things of the ancient mountains, and through the precious things of the everlasting hills,
16 in za dragocene stvari zemlje in njene polnosti in za dobro voljo tistega, ki je prebival v grmu. Naj nad Jožefovo glavo pride blagoslov in na vrh glave tistega, ki je bil ločen od svojih bratov.
And through the precious things of the earth and its fulness, and through the goodwill of him that dwelt in the thorn-bush: may this blessing come upon the head of Joseph, and upon the crown of the head of him that was separated from his brothers.
17 Njegova slava je podobna prvencu njegovega bikca in njegovi rogovi so podobni rogovom samorogov. Z njimi bo suval ljudstvo skupaj h koncem zemlje, in oni so Efrájimovi deset tisoči in oni so Manásejevi deset tisoči.«
His first-born steer is adorned with glory, and his horns are like the horns of reem; with them shall he push nations together to the ends of the earth: and they are the myriads of Ephraim, and they are the thousands of Menasseh.
18 O Zábulonu je rekel: »Veseli se Zábulon v svojem odhajanju in Isahár v svojih šotorih.
And of Zebulun he said, Rejoice, Zebulun, in thy going out; and, Issachar, in thy tents.
19 Ljudstvo bosta klicala h gori. Tam bodo darovali klavne daritve pravičnosti, kajti sesali bodo od obilja morij in od zakladov, skritih v pesku.«
They will call the tribes unto the mountain; there will they offer sacrifices of righteousness; for they will suck the abundance of the seas, and the treasures hid in the sand.
20 O Gadu je rekel: »Blagoslovljen bodi, kdor povečuje Gad. Ta prebiva kakor lev in trga laket s têmenom.
And of Gad he said, Blessed be he that enlargeth Gad: like a lioness lieth he down, and teareth off the arm with the crown of the head.
21 Prvi del si je priskrbel zase, ker je bil tam, v deležu postavodajalca, dokončan; in prišel je s poglavarji ljudstva, izvršil je Gospodovo pravičnost in njegove sodbe z Izraelom.«
And he provided the first part for himself, because there is the field of the law-giver, of the hidden; and he went forth at the head of the people: he executed the justice of the Lord, and his judgments with Israel.
22 O Danu je rekel: »Dan je levji mladič. Poskakoval bo iz Bašána.«
And of Dan he said, Dan is a lion's whelp, that leapeth forth from Bashan.
23 O Neftáliju je rekel: »Oh Neftáli, nasičen z naklonjenostjo in poln Gospodovega blagoslova. Ti poseduj zahod in jug.«
And of Naphtali he said, O Naphtali, satisfied with favor, and full of the blessing of the Lord, take thou possession of the west and the south.
24 O Aserju je rekel: »Aser naj bo blagoslovljen z otroki. Sprejemljiv naj bo svojim bratom in naj svoje stopalo omoči v olju.
And of Asher he said, More than [all] the children be Asher blessed: he shall be the most favored of his brethren, and bathe his foot in oil.
25 Tvoji čevlji bodo železo in bron in kakor tvoji dnevi, takšna bo tvoja moč.
Iron and copper shall be thy bolts; and as thy [younger] days so shall thy old age be.
26 Nobenega ni podobnega Ješurúnovemu Bogu, ki jaha na nebesih v tvojo pomoč in v svoji odličnosti na nebu.
There is none like unto the God of Yeshurun, who rideth to help thee upon the heavens, and in his excellency upon the skies.
27 Večen Bog je tvoje zatočišče in spodaj so večne roke in on bo izpred tebe sunil sovražnika in rekel bo: ›Uniči jih.‹
Thy refuge is the eternal God, and here beneath, the everlasting arms; and he thrust out the enemy from before thee; and he said, Destroy.
28 Potem bo Izrael sam prebival na varnem. Jakobov studenec bo na deželi žita in vina; tudi njegovo nebo bo kapljalo roso.
And then dwelt Israel in safety, alone, the fountain of Jacob; in a land of corn and wine; also its heavens shall drop down dew.
29 Srečen si ti, oh Izrael. Kdo je tebi podoben, oh ljudstvo, rešeno po Gospodu, ščitu tvoje pomoči in kdo je meč tvoje odličnosti! In tvoji sovražniki ti bodo najdeni kot lažnivci, in teptal jih boš na njihovih visokih krajih.«
Happy art thou, O Israel! who is like unto thee, O people, saved by the Lord, the Shield of thy help, and who is the Sword of thy excellency! and thy enemies shall fawn upon thee; and thou shalt tread upon their high-places.
