Jozue 4
1 Pripetilo se je, ko je vse ljudstvo dokončalo prehod čez Jordan, da je Gospod spregovoril Józuetu, rekoč:
And when the people had completely passed over Jordan, the Lord spoke to Joshua, saying,
2 »Vzemi dvanajst mož izmed ljudstva, iz vsakega rodu moža
Take men from the people, one of each tribe,
3 in jim zapovej, rekoč: ›Iz srede Jordana, iz kraja, kjer so trdno stala stopala duhovnikov, vzemite dvanajst kamnov in odnesli jih boste s seboj prek [Jordana] in jih pustili na kraju za nastanitev, kjer boste to noč prenočili.‹«
and charge them; and you shall take out of the midst of Jordan twelve fit stones, and having carried them across together with yourselves, place them in your camp, where you shall encamp for the night.
4 Potem je Józue poklical dvanajst mož, ki jih je postavil izmed Izraelovih otrok, iz vsakega rodu moža
And Joshua having called twelve men of distinction amongst the children of Israel, one of each tribe,
5 in Józue jim je rekel: »Pojdite čez pred skrinjo Gospoda, svojega Boga, v sredo Jordana in vsak izmed vas naj na svojo ramo vzame kamen, glede na število rodov Izraelovih otrok,
said to them, Advance before me in the presence of the Lord into the midst of Jordan, and each having taken up a stone from thence, let him carry it on his shoulders, according to the number of the twelve tribes of Israel:
6 da bo to lahko znamenje med vami, da ko vaši otroci vprašajo svoje starše, v času, ki pride, rekoč: ›Kaj mislite s temi kamni?‹
that these may be to you continually for an appointed sign, that when your son asks you in future, saying, What are these stones to us?
7 Potem jim boste odgovorili: ›Da so bile vode Jordana odrezane pred skrinjo Gospodove zaveze. Ko je ta šla čez Jordan, so bile jordanske vode odsekane in ti kamni bodo Izraelovim otrokom v spomin na veke.‹«
then you may explain to your son, saying, The river Jordan was dried up from before the ark of the covenant of the Lord of the whole earth, when it passed it: and these stones shall be for a memorial for you for the children of Israel for ever.
8 Izraelovi otroci so storili, kakor je Józue zapovedal in iz srede Jordana vzeli dvanajst kamnov, kakor je Gospod govoril Józuetu, glede na število rodov Izraelovih otrok in jih s seboj odnesli preko [Jordana] na kraj, kjer so prenočili in tam so jih odložili.
And the children of Israel did so, as the Lord commanded Joshua; and they took up twelve stones out of the midst of Jordan, (as the Lord commanded Joshua, when the children of Israel had completely passed over, ) and carried these stones with them into the camp, and laid them down there.
9 Józue je dvanajst kamnov postavil v sredo Jordana, na kraj, kjer so stala stopala duhovnikov, ki so nosili skrinjo zaveze in tam so do današnjega dne.
And Joshua set also other twelve stones in Jordan itself, in the place that was under the feet of the priests that bore the ark of the covenant of the Lord; and there they are to this day.
10 Kajti duhovniki, ki so nosili skrinjo, so stali v sredi Jordana, dokler ni bila končana vsaka stvar, ki jo je Gospod zapovedal Józuetu, da spregovori ljudstvu, glede na vse, kar je Mojzes zapovedal Józuetu in ljudstvo je pohitelo in šlo čez.
And the priests that bore the ark of the covenant stood in Jordan, until Joshua [had] finished all that the Lord commanded him to report to the people; and the people hasted and passed over.
11 Pripetilo se je, ko je vse ljudstvo dokončalo prehod čez [Jordan], da je šla čez skrinja in duhovniki v prisotnosti ljudstva.
And it came to pass when all the people had passed over, that the ark of the covenant of the Lord passed over, and the stones before them.
12 Rubenovi otroci, Gadovi otroci in polovica Manásejevega rodu so oboroženi šli čez pred Izraelovimi otroki, kakor jim je govoril Mojzes.
And the sons of Ruben, and the sons of Gad, and the half tribe of Manasse passed over armed before the children of Israel, as Moses commanded them.
13 Okoli štirideset tisoč pripravljenih za vojno je šlo čez pred Gospodom v bitko k ravninam Jerihe.
Forty thousand armed for battle went over before the Lord to war, to the city of Jericho.
14 Na ta dan je Gospod poveličal Józueta v očeh vsega Izraela in oni so se ga bali, kakor so se bali Mojzesa, vse dni njegovega življenja.
In that day the Lord magnified Joshua before all the people of Israel; and they feared him, as [they did] Moses, as long as he lived.
15 Gospod je spregovoril Józuetu, rekoč:
And the Lord spoke to Joshua, saying,
16 »Zapovej duhovnikom, ki nosijo skrinjo pričevanja, da pridejo gor, ven iz Jordana.«
Charge the priests that bear the ark of the covenant of the testimony of the Lord, to go up out of Jordan.
17 Józue je torej zapovedal duhovnikom, rekoč: »Pridite gor iz Jordana.«
And Joshua charged the priests, saying, Go up out of Jordan.
18 Pripetilo se je, ko so duhovniki, ki so nosili skrinjo Gospodove zaveze, prišli gor iz srede Jordana in so bili podplati duhovniških stopal dvignjeni na suho zemljo, da so se vode Jordana vrnile na svoj kraj in stekle čez vse svoje bregove, kakor so počele poprej.
And it came to pass when the priests who bore the ark of the covenant of the Lord were gone up out of Jordan, and set their feet upon the land, [that] the water of Jordan returned impetuously to its place, and went as before over all its banks.
19 In ljudstvo je prišlo gor iz Jordana na deseti dan prvega meseca ter se utaborilo v Gilgálu, na vzhodni meji Jerihe.
And the people went up out of Jordan on the tenth day of the first month; and the children of Israel encamped in Galgala in the region eastward from Jericho.
20 Tistih dvanajst kamnov, ki so jih vzeli iz Jordana, je Józue postavil v Gilgálu.
And Joshua set these twelve stones which he took out of Jordan, in Galgala,
21 Izraelovim otrokom je spregovoril, rekoč: »Ko bodo vaši otroci vprašali svoje očete, v času, ki pride, rekoč: ›Kaj pomenijo ti kamni?‹
saying, When your sons ask you, saying, What are these stones?
22 Potem boste svojim otrokom dali vedeti, rekoč: ›Izrael je po suhih tleh prešel preko tega Jordana.
Tell your sons, that Israel went over this Jordan on dry land,
23 Kajti Gospod, vaš Bog, je izpred vas posušil vode Jordana, dokler niste prešli čez, kakor je Gospod, vaš Bog, storil Rdečemu morju, ki ga je posušil pred nami, dokler nismo prešli čez,
when the Lord our God had dried up the water of Jordan from before them, until they had passed over; as the Lord our God did to the Red Sea, which the Lord our God dried up from before us, until we passed over.
24 da bi vsa ljudstva zemlje lahko poznala Gospodovo roko, da je ta mogočna, da se boste lahko na veke bali Gospoda, svojega Boga.‹«
That all the nations of the earth might know, that the power of the Lord is mighty, and that you might worship the Lord our God in every work.
