Jozue 4
1 Pripetilo se je, ko je vse ljudstvo dokončalo prehod čez Jordan, da je Gospod spregovoril Józuetu, rekoč:
And it came to pass when the whole nation had completely gone over the Jordan, that Jehovah spoke to Joshua, saying,
2 »Vzemi dvanajst mož izmed ljudstva, iz vsakega rodu moža
Take you twelve men out of the people, one man out of every 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 command them, saying, Take up hence out of the midst of the Jordan, from the place where the priests' feet stood firm, twelve stones, and carry them over with you, and lay them down in the lodging-place where ye shall lodge this night.
4 Potem je Józue poklical dvanajst mož, ki jih je postavil izmed Izraelovih otrok, iz vsakega rodu moža
And Joshua called the twelve men, whom he had appointed of the children of Israel, a man out of every 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,
and Joshua said to them, Pass before the ark of Jehovah your God into the midst of the Jordan, and lift up each of you a stone [and put it] upon his shoulder, according to the number of the tribes of the children 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 this may be a sign in your midst. When your children ask hereafter, saying, What mean ye by these stones?
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 ye shall say to them, That the waters of the Jordan were cut off before the ark of the covenant of Jehovah; when it went through the Jordan, the waters of the Jordan were cut off. And these stones shall be for a memorial unto 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 Joshua had commanded, and took up twelve stones out of the midst of the Jordan, as Jehovah had spoken to Joshua, according to the number of the tribes of the children of Israel; and they carried them over with them to the lodging-place, 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 twelve stones did Joshua set up in the midst of the Jordan, in the place where the feet of the priests who bore the ark of the covenant had stood firm; and they are there 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 who bore the ark stood in the midst of the Jordan, until everything was finished that Jehovah had commanded Joshua to speak unto the people, according to all that Moses had commanded Joshua. 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 completely gone over, that the ark of Jehovah went over, and the priests, in the presence of the people.
12 Rubenovi otroci, Gadovi otroci in polovica Manásejevega rodu so oboroženi šli čez pred Izraelovimi otroki, kakor jim je govoril Mojzes.
And the children of Reuben, and the children of Gad, and the half tribe of Manasseh, went over in array before the children of Israel, as Moses had spoken to them.
13 Okoli štirideset tisoč pripravljenih za vojno je šlo čez pred Gospodom v bitko k ravninam Jerihe.
About forty thousand armed for military service passed over before Jehovah to the war, unto the plains 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.
On that day Jehovah magnified Joshua in the sight of all Israel; and they feared him, as they had feared Moses, all the days of his life.
15 Gospod je spregovoril Józuetu, rekoč:
And Jehovah spoke to Joshua, saying,
16 »Zapovej duhovnikom, ki nosijo skrinjo pričevanja, da pridejo gor, ven iz Jordana.«
Command the priests who bear the ark of the testimony, that they come up out of the Jordan.
17 Józue je torej zapovedal duhovnikom, rekoč: »Pridite gor iz Jordana.«
And Joshua commanded the priests, saying, Come up out of the 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 Jehovah had come up out of the midst of the Jordan, [when] the soles of the priests' feet were lifted up on to the dry land, that the waters of the Jordan returned to their place, and they flowed as previously, 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 came up out of the Jordan on the tenth of the first month, and encamped in Gilgal, on the eastern extremity of Jericho.
20 Tistih dvanajst kamnov, ki so jih vzeli iz Jordana, je Józue postavil v Gilgálu.
And those twelve stones which they had taken out of the Jordan did Joshua set up in Gilgal.
21 Izraelovim otrokom je spregovoril, rekoč: »Ko bodo vaši otroci vprašali svoje očete, v času, ki pride, rekoč: ›Kaj pomenijo ti kamni?‹
And he spoke to the children of Israel, saying, When your children hereafter ask their fathers, saying, What [mean] these stones?
22 Potem boste svojim otrokom dali vedeti, rekoč: ›Izrael je po suhih tleh prešel preko tega Jordana.
then ye shall let your children know, saying, On dry land did Israel come over this Jordan;
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,
because Jehovah your God dried up the waters of the Jordan from before you, until ye had passed over, as Jehovah your God did to the Red sea, which he dried up from before us, until we had 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 peoples of the earth might know the hand of Jehovah, that it is mighty; that ye might fear Jehovah your God continually.
