4 Mojzes 16
1 Torej Korah, Jichárjev sin, Kehátov sin, Lévijev sin ter Datán in Abirám, Eliábova sinova in Peletov sin On izmed Rubenovih sinov, so vzeli može
One day Korah, who was the son of Izhar and a descendant of Levi’s son Kohath, conspired with Dathan and Abiram, who were the sons of Eliab, and On, who was the son of Peleth. Those three men were from the tribe of Reuben.
2 in se vzdignili pred Mojzesom, z nekaterimi izmed Izraelovih otrok, dvesto petdesetimi princi skupnosti, slavnimi v zboru, možmi z ugledom,
Korah and those other three men incited 250 other people who were leaders among the Israeli people to join them in rebelling against Moses/me.
3 in se skupaj zbrali zoper Mojzesa in zoper Arona ter jima rekli: »Preveč si jemljeta nase, glede na to, da je vsa skupnost sveta, vsakdo izmed njih, in da je Gospod med njimi. Zakaj se torej povzdigujeta nad Gospodovo skupnost?«
They came together to criticize Aaron and Moses/me. They said to them/us, “You two are using more [authority] than you should! Yahweh has set apart all of us Israeli people, and he is with/helping all of us. So why do you act as though you are more important than the rest of us people who belong to Yahweh [RHQ]?”
4 Ko je Mojzes to slišal, je padel na svoj obraz
When Moses/I heard what they were saying, he/I prostrated himself/myself on the ground.
5 in govoril Korahu in vsej njegovi skupini, rekoč: »Celo jutri bo Gospod pokazal kdo so njegovi in kdo je svet; in povzročil mu bo, da pride bliže k njemu. Celo tistemu, ki ga je izbral, bo povzročil, da se približa k njemu.
Then he/I said to Korah and those [Israeli leaders] who were with Korah, “Tomorrow morning Yahweh will show us whom he has chosen to be his [priest], and who is holy and allowed to come near to him. Yahweh will permit [only] those whom he chooses to come into his presence.
6 Storite to: ›Vzemite kadilnice, Korah in vsa njegova skupina
So Korah, tomorrow you and those who are with you must prepare your pans to burn incense.
7 in jutri dajte vanje ogenj pred Gospodom in nanj položite kadilo. Zgodilo se bo, da bo mož, ki ga bo Gospod izbral, ta bo svet. Vi si preveč jemljete nase, vi Lévijevi sinovi.‹«
Then you must light a fire in them and burn the incense in the presence of Yahweh. Then we will see which one of us Yahweh has chosen to be his holy servant. It is you men who are descendants of Levi who are trying to use more [authority] than you should!”
8 Mojzes je rekel Korahu: »Poslušajte, prosim vas, vi Lévijevi sinovi.
Then Moses/I spoke again to Korah. He/I said, “You men who are descendants of Levi, listen to me!
9 Ali se vam zdi le majhna stvar, da vas je Izraelov Bog ločil od Izraelove skupnosti, da vas privede bliže k sebi, da opravljate delo Gospodovega šotorskega svetišča in da stojite pred skupnostjo, da jim služite?
The God of us Israelis has chosen all of you to be close to him in order that you can work for him at his Sacred Tent and serve the people. (Is that unimportant/Does that mean nothing) to you [RHQ]?
10 Privedel te je blizu k sebi in vse tvoje brate, Lévijeve sinove s teboj. Ali iščete tudi duhovništvo?
Yahweh has brought you, [Korah], and your fellow descendants of Levi, near to himself. Now are you demanding to become priests also?
11 Zaradi katerega vzroka sta tako ti in vsa tvoja skupina zbrana skupaj zoper Gospoda, in kaj je Aron, da mrmrate zoper njega?«
It is really Yahweh against whom you and your fellow descendants of Levi are rebelling. Aaron is not the one about whom you are really complaining [RHQ].”
12 Mojzes je poslal, da pokliče Datána in Abiráma, Eliábova sinova, ki sta rekla: »Ne bova prišla gor.
Then Moses/I summoned Dathan and Abiram, but [they refused to come]. They [sent a message] saying, “We will not come to you!
13 Je to majhna stvar, da si nas privedel gor iz dežele, kjer tečeta mleko in med, da nas ubiješ v divjini, razen da se narediš princa nad nami?
You brought us out of Egypt, which was a very fertile [IDM] land, in order to cause us to die here in this desert. That was bad. But now you are also trying to boss us [RHQ], and that is worse.
14 Še več, nisi nas privedel v deželo, kjer tečeta mleko in med ali nam dal dediščino polj in vinogradov. Ali boš iztaknil oči teh ljudi? Ne bomo prišli tja gor.«
You have not given us a new land to live in, a land that has good fields and vineyards. You are only trying to [RHQ] trick these people. So we will not come to you.”
15 Mojzes je bil zelo ogorčen in rekel Gospodu: »Ne spoštuj njihovih daritev. [Niti] enega osla nisem odvzel od njih niti nisem nič slabega storil enemu izmed njih.«
Then Moses/I became very angry. He/I said to Yahweh, “Do not accept the grain offerings that they have brought. I have not taken anything from them, not even one donkey, and I have never done anything wrong to them, [so they have no reason to complain about me].”
16 Mojzes je rekel Korahu: »Bodite ti in vsa tvoja skupina jutri pred Gospodom, ti, oni in Aron.
Then Moses/I said to Korah, “You and all those who are with you must come here tomorrow and stand in front of Yahweh. Aaron will also be here.
17 Vsak mož naj vzame svojo kadilnico in vanjo položi kadilo in prinesite jih pred Gospoda, vsak mož svojo kadilnico, dvesto petdeset kadilnic; tudi ti in Aron, vsak izmed vaju svojo kadilnico.«
You and all the 250 men who are with you must each take a pan in which to burn incense, and put incense in it, to [burn it to be] an offering to Yahweh. Aaron will do the same thing.”
18 Vzeli so vsak mož svojo kadilnico in vanje dali ogenj in nanj položili kadilo in z Mojzesom in Aronom stali v vratih šotorskega svetišča skupnosti.
So [the next day] each of those men got a pan to burn incense. They put in it incense and hot coals to light it, and then they all stood at the entrance of the Sacred Tent with Aaron and Moses/me.
19 Korah je pri vratih šotorskega svetišča skupnosti zoper njiju zbral vso skupnost in Gospodova slava se je prikazala vsej skupnosti.
Then Korah summoned all the people who supported him and who were against Moses/me, and they also gathered at the entrance of the tent. Then the glory of Yahweh appeared to all of them/us,
20 Gospod je spregovoril Mojzesu in Aronu, rekoč:
and Yahweh said to Aaron and Moses/me,
21 »Ločita se izmed te skupnosti, da jih lahko v hipu pokončam.«
“Get away from all these people, in order that I can get rid of them immediately!”
22 Onadva pa sta padla na svoja obraza in rekla: »Oh Bog, Bog duhov vsega mesa, ali bo en človek grešil in boš ogorčen nad vso skupnostjo?«
But Aaron and Moses/I prostrated themselves/ourselves on the ground. We pleaded with Yahweh, saying, “God, you are the one who caused all these people to live [MTY]. Only one of these men has sinned; so, (is it right for you to be angry with all the people?/it is not right for you to be angry with all the people!) [RHQ]”
23 Gospod je spregovoril Mojzesu, rekoč:
Yahweh said to Moses/me,
24 »Govori skupnosti, rekoč: ›Vzdignite se proč od bližine šotora Koraha, Datána in Abiráma.‹«
“[Okay], but tell all the people to get away from the tents of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram.”
25 Mojzes se je dvignil in odšel k Datánu in Abirámu, in Izraelove starešine so mu sledili.
So Moses/I stood up and went to the tents of Dathan and Abiram. The Israeli leaders followed him/me.
26 Spregovoril je skupnosti, rekoč: »Odidite, prosim vas, od šotorov teh zlobnežev in ne dotikajte se ničesar njihovega, da ne bi bili použiti v vseh njihovih grehih.«
He/I told the people, “Get away from the tents of these wicked men, and do not touch anything that belongs to them! If you touch anything, you will die because of their sins!”
27 Tako so se na vsaki strani umaknili od šotora Koraha, Datána in Abiráma. Datán in Abirám pa sta prišla ven in stala v vratih svojih šotorov s svojima ženama, svojimi sinovi in svojimi majhnimi otroki.
So all the people moved away from the tents of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram. Dathan and Abiram came out of their tents with their wives and children and babies, and stood at the entrances of their tents.
28 Mojzes je rekel: »S tem boste spoznali, da me je poslal Gospod, da storim vsa ta dela, kajti nisem jih storil po svoji lastni pameti.
Then Moses/I said, “I was not the one who decided to do all these things that I have done. It was Yahweh who [chose me and] sent me to do them. And now he will prove that to you.
29 Če ti možje umrejo običajne smrti vseh ljudi, ali če so obiskani po obiskanju vseh ljudi, potem me Gospod ni poslal.
If these men die in a normal way, then it will be clear that Yahweh did not choose me.
30 Toda če Gospod naredi novo stvar in zemlja odpre svoja usta in jih požre, z vsem, kar jim pripada in gredo hitro dol v jamo, potem boste razumeli, da so ti ljudje izzivali Gospoda.« (Sheol h7585)
But if Yahweh does something that has never happened before, if he causes the ground [that is under their feet] to open up and swallow these men [and their families] and all their possessions, and they fall into the opening and are buried while they are still alive, then you will know that these men have insulted Yahweh.” (Sheol h7585)
31 Pripetilo se je, ko je končal govorjenje vseh teh besed, da so se tla, ki so bila pod njimi, razklala narazen
As soon as Moses/I said this, the ground split open beneath those men.
32 in zemlja je odprla svoja usta in jih požrla in njihove hiše in vse ljudi, ki so pripadali Korahu in vse njihove dobrine.
It swallowed them and their families and all those who were standing there with Korah and all of their possessions.
33 Oni in vsi, ki so pripadali k njim, so živi odšli dol v jamo, in zemlja se je zaprla nad njimi in izginili so iz skupnosti. (Sheol h7585)
They fell into the opening in the ground while they were still alive, and all their possessions fell into the opening also. They disappeared, and the ground closed back up again. (Sheol h7585)
34 Vsi Izraelci, ki so bili naokoli njih, so pobegnili ob njihovem kričanju, kajti rekli so: »Da ne bi zemlja požrla tudi nas.«
They screamed as they fell, and all the people who were standing nearby heard them scream. The people [were terrified and] cried out as they ran away, saying, “[We do not want] the ground to swallow us also!”
35 In prišel je ogenj od Gospoda in použil dvesto petdeset mož, ki so darovali kadilo.
And then a fire from Yahweh came down [from the sky] and burned up the 250 men who were burning the incense!
36 Gospod je spregovoril Mojzesu, rekoč:
Then Yahweh said to Moses/me,
37 »Govori Eleazarju, sinu duhovnika Arona, da kadilnice pobere iz gorenja, ogenj pa iztrese daleč proč, kajti te so posvečene.
“Tell Aaron’s son Eleazar to take the pans that had incense in them away from the fire and to scatter the burning coals. The pans that those men [were carrying] are (holy/dedicated to me) [because they burned incense to me in them].
38 Kadilnice teh grešnikov [ki so grešili] zoper svoje lastne duše, naj preoblikujejo v široke plošče za pokritje oltarja, kajti darovali so jih pred Gospodom, zato so posvečene in te bodo znamenje Izraelovim otrokom.«
Those men have now died because of their sin; so [Eleazar must] take their pans and hammer the metal to make it become very thin. He must make a covering for the altar with that metal. Those pans were used to offer incense to me, so they are (holy/dedicated to me). [What happened to] those pans will now warn the Israeli people.”
39 Duhovnik Eleazar je vzel bronaste kadilnice, s katerimi so darovali tisti, ki so bili sežgani in preoblikovane so bile v široke plošče za pokritje oltarja,
So Eleazar the priest collected the 250 pans for burning incense that had been used by the men who died in the fire. He hammered the pans very thin to make a covering for the altar, as Yahweh told Moses/me should be done.
40 da bodo spomin Izraelovim otrokom, da noben tujec, ki ni od Aronovega semena, ne pride blizu, da bi daroval Gospodu, da ne bo kakor Korah in kakor njegova skupina; kakor mu je po Mojzesovi roki rekel Gospod.
That warned the Israeli people that only those who were descendants of Aaron were permitted to burn incense for an offering to Yahweh. If anyone else did that, the same thing that happened to Korah and those who were with him would happen to them.
41 Toda naslednji dan je vsa skupnost Izraelovih otrok mrmrala zoper Mojzesa in zoper Arona, rekoč: »Vidva sta ubila Gospodovo ljudstvo.«
But the following morning, all the Israeli people started to complain against Aaron and Moses/me, saying “You have killed many people who belonged to Yahweh!”
42 Pripetilo se je, ko je bila zoper Mojzesa in Arona zbrana skupnost, da so pogledali proti šotorskemu svetišču skupnosti in glej, pokrival ga je oblak in prikazala se je Gospodova slava.
When all the people gathered together to protest about what Aaron and Moses/I had done, they looked at the Sacred Tent and saw that the sacred cloud had covered it, and the glory of Yahweh had appeared.
43 In Mojzes in Aron sta prišla pred šotorsko svetišče skupnosti.
Aaron and Moses/I went and stood in front of the Sacred Tent.
44 Gospod je spregovoril Mojzesu, rekoč:
Then Yahweh said to Moses/me,
45 »Vzdignita se proč izmed te skupnosti, da jih lahko v hipu použijem.« In onadva sta padla na svoja obraza.
“Get away from these people, in order that I can get rid of them immediately [without injuring you two]!” But Aaron and Moses/I prostrated themselves/ourselves on the ground [and prayed].
46 Mojzes je rekel Aronu: »Vzemi kadilnico, daj vanjo ogenj iz oltarja, nanj položi kadilo in hitro pojdi k skupnosti ter opravi spravo zanje, kajti od Gospoda je izšel bes. Začela se je kužna bolezen.«
Moses/I said to Aaron, “Quickly take another pan and put in it some burning/hot coals from the altar. Put incense in the pan, and carry it out among the people to atone for the sins of the people. Yahweh is very angry with them, and [I know that] a (severe plague/bad sickness) has already started among them.”
47 Aron je vzel, kakor je Mojzes zapovedal in stekel na sredo skupnosti. In glej, kuga se je začela med ljudstvom. In nanjo je položil kadilo ter opravil spravo za ljudstvo.
So Aaron did what Moses/I told him. He took the burning incense out among the people. The plague had already started to strike the people, but Aaron continued to burn the incense so that God would forgive them for the sins they had committed.
48 Stal je med mrtvimi in živimi in kužna bolezen je obstala.
He stood between the people who had already died and those who were still alive, and then the plague stopped.
49 Torej tistih, ki so umrli od kužne bolezni, je bilo štirinajst tisoč sedemsto, poleg tistih, ki so umrli zaradi Korahove zadeve.
But 14,700 people had already died from that plague/sickness, in addition to the people who died with Korah.
50 In Aron se je vrnil k Mojzesu, k vratom šotorskega svetišča skupnosti in kužna bolezen je obstala.
Then after the plague had ended, Aaron and Moses/I returned to the entrance of the Sacred Tent.
