5 Mojzes 33
1 To je blagoslov, s katerim je Mojzes, Božji mož, pred svojo smrtjo blagoslovil Izraelove otroke.
Before God’s prophet Moses died, he [asked God to] bless the Israeli people.
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.
This is what he said: “Yahweh came [and spoke] to us at Sinai [Mountain]; he [came like] [MET] the sun rises in the Edom [region] and like his light shone on us when we were [in the desert] near Paran Mountain [after we left Sinai Mountain]. He came with 10,000 angels, and there was a flaming fire at his right side.
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.
Yahweh truly loves his people, and protects [MTY] all those who belong to him. So they prostrate themselves in front of him, and they listen to his instructions.
4 Mojzes nam je zapovedal postavo, torej dediščino Jakobove skupnosti.
I gave them laws to obey, laws that would be the most precious thing that [the descendants of] Jacob owned.
5 In on je bil kralj v Ješurúnu, ko so se zbrali skupaj poglavarji ljudstva in so bili Izraelovi rodovi zbrani skupaj.
So Yahweh became the king of his Israeli people when all the tribes and their leaders were gathered together.
6 Naj Ruben živi in ne umre in naj njegovih mož ne bo malo.«
[I say this about the tribe of] Reuben: I desire/hope that their tribe will never disappear, but they will never become numerous.
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.«
“say this about [the tribe of] Judah: Yahweh, listen to them when they call out [for help]; and unite them with the other tribes again. Fight for them, and help them to fight against their enemies.
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,
I say this about [the tribe of] Levi: Yahweh, give to those who are dedicated to you the sacred stones [that they will use to find out what you want to be done]; You tested them at a spring in the desert, a spring that they named Massah and also named Meribah [to find out if they would (remain loyal to/continue to obey) you].
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.
The tribe of Levi did what you told them to do and obeyed the agreement that you [made with the Israeli people]; those laws were more important to them [HYP] than their siblings and parents and children.
10 Jakoba bodo učili tvojih sodb in Izraela tvoje postave. Pred teboj bodo postavili kadilo in celotno žgalno daritev na tvoj oltar.
The tribe of Levi will teach the Israeli people [DOU] your rules and regulations, and they are the ones who will burn incense and who will completely burn on the altar the offerings [that the people bring].
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.«
Yahweh, bless their work and (accept/be pleased with) all that they do. Crush/Destroy all their enemies; do not enable their enemies to be able to fight against them 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.«
I say this about [the tribe of] Benjamin: They are the tribe that Yahweh loves; he keeps them safe. He protects them continually, and he lives among their hills [MET].
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
“say this about [the tribes of] Joseph: I desire/hope that Yahweh will bless their land by giving them rain/dew from the sky and water from deep [in the ground],
14 in za dragoceno sadje, porojeno s soncem in za dragocene stvari, navržene z luno
by giving them good fruit [ripened] by the sun and good crops at harvest time.
15 in za vodilne stvari starodavnih gora in za dragocene stvari trajnih hribov
I desire/hope that very nice fruit will grow on trees in their ancient mountains/hills [DOU],
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 that their land will be have many good crops, blessed by [Yahweh], the one who appeared to me in a burning bush. I desire/hope that Yahweh will bless the tribes of Joseph in all those ways, because he was the leaders of his [older] brothers [when they were in Egypt].
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.«
The descendants of Joseph will be as strong as [SIM] a bull; [with their weapons they will wound their enemies, like] [MET] a wild ox [gores other animals] with its horns. They will force other people-groups, all of them, to be exiled to the most distant places on the earth. That is what [the descendants of the two sons of Joseph] will do, the ten thousands [of the tribe] of Ephraim and the thousands [of the tribe] of Manasseh.
18 O Zábulonu je rekel: »Veseli se Zábulon v svojem odhajanju in Isahár v svojih šotorih.
“say this about [the tribes of] Zebulun [and Issachar]: I desire/hope that the people of Zebulun will prosper in their travels [across the seas], and that the people of Issachar will prosper while they stay at home [and take care of their cattle and crops].
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 invite people [from the other Israeli tribes] to the mountain [where they worship Yahweh], and they will offer the correct/proper sacrifices to him. They will become rich from [the work that they do on] the seas and from [the things that they make from] (OR, [find in]) the sand [on the beaches].
20 O Gadu je rekel: »Blagoslovljen bodi, kdor povečuje Gad. Ta prebiva kakor lev in trga laket s têmenom.
“say this about [the tribe of] Gad: Praise [Yahweh], the one who made their [territory] large. The people of their tribe [will attack their enemies fiercely] [SIM] like a lion that crouches, waiting to tear off the arm or the scalp [of some animal].
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.«
They chose the best part of the land for themselves; [a large share of the land], a share that should be given to a leader was allotted to them. When the leaders of the tribes of Israel [gathered together], they decided that the tribe of Gad should have a large share of the land. The tribe of Gad obeyed the commands of Yahweh and the things that he decided that they should do.
22 O Danu je rekel: »Dan je levji mladič. Poskakoval bo iz Bašána.«
“say this about [the tribe] of Dan: The people of the tribe of Dan are like [SIM] a young lion; they leap from [their caves in the] Bashan [region to attack their enemies].
23 O Neftáliju je rekel: »Oh Neftáli, nasičen z naklonjenostjo in poln Gospodovega blagoslova. Ti poseduj zahod in jug.«
“say this about [the tribe of] Naphtali: [The people of the tribe of] Naphtali have been blessed by Yahweh, who has been very kind to them; their land extends far south from Lake [Galilee].
24 O Aserju je rekel: »Aser naj bo blagoslovljen z otroki. Sprejemljiv naj bo svojim bratom in naj svoje stopalo omoči v olju.
“say this about [the tribe of] Asher: May Yahweh bless the descendants of Asher more than he will bless the other tribes. May he favor Asher’s descendants most of all. I desire/hope that their land will [be filled with olive trees that will] produce a lot of [IDM] [olives to make olive] oil.
25 Tvoji čevlji bodo železo in bron in kakor tvoji dnevi, takšna bo tvoja moč.
Their [towns will be protected by high walls with gates that have] bronze and iron bars; I desire/hope that they will be strong and secure/protected all the time that they are alive.
26 Nobenega ni podobnega Ješurúnovemu Bogu, ki jaha na nebesih v tvojo pomoč in v svoji odličnosti na nebu.
“You people of Israel, there is no god like your God, who rides majestically across the sky to help you.
27 Večen Bog je tvoje zatočišče in spodaj so večne roke in on bo izpred tebe sunil sovražnika in rekel bo: ›Uniči jih.‹
God, who lives forever, is the one who (gives you refuge/protects you); [it is as though] he puts his everlasting arms under you [to support you]. He will expel your enemies while you advance; he has told you to destroy all of them.
28 Potem bo Izrael sam prebival na varnem. Jakobov studenec bo na deželi žita in vina; tudi njegovo nebo bo kapljalo roso.
So, you Israeli people will live safely; you descendants of Jacob will not be disturbed by others; in the land where [you will live], there will be plenty of grain and wine, and there will be plenty of rain.
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.«
You people of Israel, Yahweh (has blessed/is pleased with) you. There is certainly [RHQ] no nation like your nation, whom Yahweh has rescued [from being slaves in Egypt]. [He will be like] [MET] a shield to protect you and like [MET] a sword to enable you to defeat [your enemies]. Your enemies will come to you begging for you [to act mercifully toward them], but you will trample on their backs/necks.”
