Ponovljeni zakon 28
1 Ako zbilja poslušaš glas Jahve, Boga svoga, držeći i vršeći sve njegove zapovijedi što ti ih danas naređujem, Jahve, Bog tvoj, uzvisit će te nad sve narode na zemlji.
Now if you give ear to the voice of the Lord your God, and keep with care all these orders which I have given you today, then the Lord your God will put you high over all the nations of the earth:
2 Svi ovi blagoslovi sići će na te i stići će te ako budeš slušao glas Jahve, Boga svoga.
And all these blessings will come on you and overtake you, if your ears are open to the voice of the Lord your God.
3 Blagoslovljen ćeš biti u gradu, blagoslovljen u polju.
A blessing will be on you in the town, and a blessing in the field.
4 Blagoslovljen će biti plod utrobe tvoje, rod zemlje tvoje, plod blaga tvoga: mlad krava tvojih i prirast stada tvoga.
A blessing will be on the fruit of your body, and on the fruit of your land, on the fruit of your cattle, the increase of your herd, and the young of your flock.
5 Blagoslovljen će biti tvoj koš i naćve tvoje.
A blessing will be on your basket and on your bread-basin.
6 Blagoslovljen ćeš biti kad ulaziš, blagoslovljen kad izlaziš.
A blessing will be on your coming in and on your going out.
7 Neprijatelje tvoje koji se dignu protiv tebe Jahve će položiti preda te potučene; jednim će putem izaći na te, a na sedam putova razbježat će se ispred tebe.
By the power of the Lord, those who take arms against you will be overcome before you: they will come out against you one way, and will go in flight from you seven ways.
8 Jahve će narediti da blagoslov bude s tobom u žitnicama tvojim i u svakom pothvatu ruke tvoje i blagoslivljat će te u zemlji koju ti Jahve, Bog tvoj, daje.
The Lord will send his blessing on your store-houses and on everything to which you put your hand: his blessing will be on you in the land which the Lord your God is giving you.
9 Jahve će od tebe učiniti narod sebi posvećen, kako ti se zakleo, ako budeš držao zapovijedi Jahve, Boga svoga, i hodio njegovim putovima.
The Lord will keep you as a people holy to himself, as he has said to you in his oath, if you keep the orders of the Lord your God and go on walking in his ways.
10 Svi narodi zemlje vidjet će da je nada te zazvano ime Jahvino te će strahovati od tebe.
And all the peoples of the earth will see that the name of the Lord is on you, and they will go in fear of you.
11 Jahve će te obasuti obilnim dobrima: porodom utrobe tvoje, priraštajem blaga tvoga i rodom s tla tvoga u zemlji za koju se Jahve zakleo ocima tvojim da će ti je dati.
And the Lord will make you fertile in every good thing, in the fruit of your body, and the fruit of your cattle, and the fruit of your fields, in the land which the Lord, by his oath to your fathers, said he would give you.
12 Jahve će ti otvoriti svoju bogatu riznicu - nebo - da daje kišu tvojoj zemlji u pravo vrijeme i blagoslovi svaki pothvat ruku tvojih. Mnogim ćeš narodima u zajam davati, a sam nećeš uzimati u zajam.
Opening his store-house in heaven, the Lord will send rain on your land at the right time, blessing all the work of your hands: other nations will make use of your wealth, and you will have no need of theirs.
13 Jahve će te držati na pročelju, a ne u začelju; uvijek ćeš biti na vrhu, nikad na dnu, ako budeš slušao zapovijedi Jahve, Boga svoga, što ti ih danas naređujem da ih držiš i vršiš.
The Lord will make you the head and not the tail; and you will ever have the highest place, if you give ear to the orders of the Lord your God which I give you today, to keep and to do them;
14 Ni od jedne riječi što vam je danas nalažem nemoj odstupati ni desno ni lijevo idući za drugim bogovima i iskazujući im štovanje.
Not turning away from any of the orders which I give you today, to the right hand or to the left, or going after any other gods to give them worship.
15 Ali ako ne budeš slušao glasa Jahve, Boga svoga, ne držeći i ne vršeći svih njegovih zapovijedi i svih njegovih zakona što ti ih danas naređujem, sva će ova prokletstva doći na te i stići će te:
But if you do not give ear to the voice of the Lord your God, and take care to do all his orders and his laws which I give you today, then all these curses will come on you and overtake you:
16 Proklet ćeš biti u gradu, proklet u polju.
You will be cursed in the town and cursed in the field.
17 Proklet će biti koš tvoj i naćve tvoje.
A curse will be on your basket and on your bread-basin.
18 Proklet će biti plod utrobe tvoje i rod zemlje tvoje, mlad krava tvojih i priraštaj stada tvoga.
A curse will be on the fruit of your body, and on the fruit of your land, on the increase of your cattle, and the young of your flock.
19 Proklet ćeš biti kad ulaziš, proklet kad izlaziš.
You will be cursed when you come in and cursed when you go out.
20 Jahve će na te puštati prokletstvo, zabunu i kletvu u svemu na što pružiš ruku svoju da uradiš, sve dok ne budeš satrt i brzo ne propadneš zbog zloće svojih djela kojima si me napustio.
The Lord will send on you cursing and trouble and punishment in everything to which you put your hand, till sudden destruction overtakes you; because of your evil ways in which you have been false to me.
21 Kugu će Jahve za te privezati dok te ne nestane sa zemlje u koju ideš da je zaposjedneš.
The Lord will send disease after disease on you, till you have been cut off by death from the land to which you are going.
22 Jahve će te udariti sušicom, groznicom, upalom, žegom i sušom, medljikom i snijeti; to će te goniti dok te ne nestane.
The Lord will send wasting disease, and burning pain, and flaming heat against you, keeping back the rain till your land is waste and dead; so will it be till your destruction is complete.
23 Nebesa nad tvojom glavom postat će mjedena, a tlo pod tvojim nogama postat će gvozdeno.
And the heaven over your heads will be brass, and the earth under you hard as iron.
24 Kišu tvoje zemlje Jahve će pretvarati u pijesak i prašinu da na te pada s nebesa dok te ne uništi.
The Lord will make the rain of your land powder and dust, sending it down on you from heaven till your destruction is complete.
25 Jahve će od tebe učiniti pobijeđenoga pred tvojim neprijateljima; jednim ćeš putem prema njima izlaziti, a na sedam putova bježat ćeš ispred njih. Strašilo ćeš postati za sva zemaljska kraljevstva.
The Lord will let you be overcome by your haters: you will go out against them one way, and you will go in flight before them seven ways: you will be the cause of fear among all the kingdoms of the earth.
26 I mrtvo tijelo tvoje postat će hranom svim pticama nebeskim i svoj zvjeradi zemaljskoj. Nikoga neće biti da ih plaši.
Your bodies will be meat for all the birds of the air and the beasts of the earth; there will be no one to send them away.
27 Jahve će te udarati egipatskim prištevima, čirevima, krastama i svrabom, od kojih se nećeš moći izliječiti.
The Lord will send on you the disease of Egypt, and other sorts of skin diseases which nothing will make well.
28 Jahve će te udarati bjesnilom, sljepoćom i ludilom;
He will make your minds diseased, and your eyes blind, and your hearts wasted with fear:
29 u po bijela dana tumarat ćeš kao što tumara slijepac po mraku; nećeš imati uspjeha u svojim pothvatima; sve vrijeme svoje bit ćeš izrabljivan i pljačkan, a neće biti nikoga da te spasi.
You will go feeling your way when the sun is high, like a blind man for whom all is dark, and nothing will go well for you: you will be crushed and made poor for ever, and you will have no saviour.
30 Sa ženom ćeš se zaručivati, ali će je drugi posjedovati. Kuću ćeš graditi, ali u njoj nećeš stanovati. Vinograd ćeš zasađivati, ali ga nećeš brati.
You will take a wife, but another man will have the use of her: the house which your hands have made will never be your resting-place: you will make a vine-garden, and never take the fruit of it.
31 Tvoga će vola na tvoje oči zaklati, ali ti od njega nećeš jesti; tvoga će magarca ispred tebe otimati, ali ti ga neće vraćati; stado će tvoje neprijatelju tvome predavati, a neće biti nikoga da ti pritekne u pomoć.
Your ox will be put to death before your eyes, but its flesh will not be your food: your ass will be violently taken away before your face, and will not be given back to you: your sheep will be given to your haters, and there will be no saviour for you.
32 Sinovi tvoji i kćeri tvoje bit će predavani drugome narodu. Oči će tvoje svaki dan kapati gledajući za njima, ali ruka tvoja neće moći ništa.
Your sons and your daughters will be given to another people, and your eyes will be wasted away with looking and weeping for them all the day: and you will have no power to do anything.
33 Narod koji i ne poznaješ jest će plod sa zemlje tvoje i svu muku tvoju, dok ćeš ti sve vrijeme svoje biti izrabljivan i gažen.
The fruit of your land and all the work of your hands will be food for a nation which is strange to you and to your fathers; you will only be crushed down and kept under for ever:
34 Ludovat ćeš od prizora što će ih oči tvoje gledati.
So that the things which your eyes have to see will send you out of your minds.
35 Jahve će te udarati ljutim prištevima po koljenima i po stegnima - od stopala nogu tvojih do tjemena na glavi tvojoj - od kojih se nećeš moći izliječiti.
The Lord will send a skin disease, attacking your knees and your legs, bursting out from your feet to the top of your head, so that nothing will make you well.
36 Jahve će odvesti i tebe i tvoga kralja, koga budeš postavio nad sobom, među narod nepoznat i tebi i tvojim ocima te ćeš ondje iskazivati štovanje drugim bogovima, drvenim i kamenim.
And you, and the king whom you have put over you, will the Lord take away to a nation strange to you and to your fathers; there you will be servants to other gods of wood and stone.
37 Bit ćeš na zgražanje, porugu i ruglo svim narodima među koje te Jahve odvede.
And you will become a wonder and a name of shame among all the nations where the Lord will take you.
38 Mnogo ćeš sjemena bacati u polje, ali ćeš malo žeti jer će ti urod skakavci ogolijevati.
You will take much seed out into the field, and get little in; for the locust will get it.
39 Vinograde ćeš saditi i obrađivati, ali vina nećeš piti niti ćeš što brati jer će ih crv izjedati.
You will put in vines and take care of them, but you will get no wine or grapes from them; for they will be food for worms.
40 Imat ćeš masline po svemu svome području, ali se uljem nećeš mazati jer će ti masline opadati.
Your land will be full of olive-trees, but there will be no oil for the comfort of your body; for your olive-tree will give no fruit.
41 Sinove ćeš i kćeri rađati, ali tvoji neće biti jer će u sužanjstvo odlaziti.
You will have sons and daughters, but they will not be yours; for they will go away prisoners into a strange land.
42 Sva tvoja stabla i rod sa zemlje tvoje postat će plijenom kukaca.
All your trees and the fruit of your land will be the locust's.
43 Došljak koji bude u sredini tvojoj uzdizat će se nada te, a ti ćeš padati sve niže i niže.
The man from a strange land who is living among you will be lifted up higher and higher over you, while you go down lower and lower.
44 On će uzaimati tebi, a ne ti njemu; on će biti glava, a ti rep.
He will let you have his wealth at interest, and will have no need of yours: he will be the head and you the tail.
45 Sva će te ova prokletstva snalaziti, progoniti i doseći dok te ne unište, jer nisi slušao glasa Jahve, Boga svoga, ni držao zapovijedi njegovih i zakona njegovih koje ti je dao.
And all these curses will come after you and overtake you, till your destruction is complete; because you did not give ear to the voice of the Lord your God, or keep his laws and his orders which he gave you:
46 Ona će služiti za čudesni znak na tebi i tvome potomstvu zauvijek.
These things will come on you and on your seed, to be a sign and a wonder for ever;
47 Budući da nisi htio služiti Jahvi, Bogu svome, vesela i radosna srca zbog obilja svega,
Because you did not give honour to the Lord your God, worshipping him gladly, with joy in your hearts on account of all your wealth of good things;
48 služit ćeš neprijatelju svome, koga će Jahve poslati na te, u gladu i žeđi, golotinji i oskudici svakoj. Na tvoju će šiju navaljivati jaram od gvožđa dok te ne satre.
For this cause you will become servants to those whom the Lord your God will send against you, without food and drink and clothing, and in need of all things: and he will put a yoke of iron on your neck till he has put an end to you.
49 Jahve će iz daljine, s kraja zemlje, dovesti na te narod koji će sletjeti kao orao. Bit će to narod kojemu jezika nećeš razumjeti;
The Lord will send a nation against you from the farthest ends of the earth, coming with the flight of an eagle; a nation whose language is strange to you;
50 narod bezdušan, koji neće pokazivati obzira prema starima ni smilovanja prema mladima.
A hard-faced nation, who will have no respect for the old or mercy for the young:
51 On će ti jesti mlado od tvoga blaga i rod tvoje njive dok te ne uništi; neće ti ostavljati ni žita, ni vina, ni ulja, ni mlado od krave, ni priraštaj od stada, sve dok te ne upropasti.
He will take the fruit of your cattle and of your land till death puts an end to you: he will let you have nothing of your grain or wine or oil or any of the increase of your cattle or the young of your flock, till he has made your destruction complete.
52 Opsjedat će te u svim tvojim gradovima širom zemlje tvoje dok ne obori visoke i utvrđene bedeme u koje si polagao nadu svoju; opsjednut će te u svim gradovima tvojim širom zemlje tvoje koju ti dadne Jahve, Bog tvoj.
Your towns will be shut in by his armies, till your high walls, in which you put your faith, have come down: his armies will be round your towns, through all your land which the Lord your God has given you.
53 U tjeskobi i jadu, kojima će te neprijatelj tvoj pritisnuti, jest ćeš plod utrobe svoje - meso sinova svojih i kćeri svojih koje ti dadne Jahve, Bog tvoj.
And your food will be the fruit of your body, the flesh of the sons and daughters which the Lord your God has given you; because of your bitter need and the cruel grip of your haters.
54 Čovjek najnježniji i najmekši u tebe zlobnim će okom gledati na vlastitog brata, ženu u svome naručju i djecu svoju što mu preostanu,
That man among you who is soft and used to comfort will be hard and cruel to his brother, and to his dear wife, and to of those his children who are still living;
55 ne hoteći ni s jednim od njih dijeliti mesa sinova svojih koje bude jeo, jer zbog tjeskobe i jada, kojima će te neprijatelj tvoj pritiskati po svim gradovima tvojim, drugo mu neće preostajati.
And will not give to any of them the flesh of his children which will be his food because he has no other; in the cruel grip of your haters on all your towns.
56 I žena najnježnija i najmekša što bude u tebe - toliko nježna i tankoćutna da se ne usuđuje spustiti stopala na zemlju - zlobnim će okom gledati na muža u svome naručju, i na sina svoga, i na kćer svoju,
The most soft and delicate of your women, who would not so much as put her foot on the earth, so delicate is she, will be hard-hearted to her husband and to her son and to her daughter;
57 i na posteljicu svoju što joj iziđe između nogu, i na djecu što ih ima roditi, jer će ih potajno jesti, oskudna u svemu, zbog nevolje i jada kojim će te neprijatelj tvoj pritisnuti po svim gradovima tvojim.
And to her baby newly come to birth, and to the children of her body; for having no other food, she will make a meal of them secretly, because of her bitter need and the cruel grip of your haters on all your towns.
58 Ako ne budeš držao i vršio riječi ovoga Zakona što su napisane u ovoj knjizi, ne poštujući ovo slavno i strašno Ime - Jahvu, Boga svoga -
If you will not take care to do all the words of this law, recorded in this book, honouring that name of glory and of fear, THE LORD YOUR GOD;
59 Jahve će tebe i tvoje potomstvo teško ošinuti velikim i dugotrajnim bičevima, pogubnim i dugim bolestima.
Then the Lord your God will make your punishment, and the punishment of your seed, a thing to be wondered at; great punishments and cruel diseases stretching on through long years.
60 Pustit će na te sva zla egipatska kojih si se plašio, i ona će se prilijepiti za te.
He will send on you again all the diseases of Egypt, which were a cause of fear to you, and they will take you in their grip.
61 A i svaku drugu bolest i bič, koji nije naveden u knjizi ovoga Zakona, Jahve će na te puštati dok te ne uništi.
And all the diseases and the pains not recorded in the book of this law will the Lord send on you till your destruction is complete.
62 Ostat će vas samo malo, vas što brojni bijaste kao zvijezde nebeske, a sve zato što nisi slušao glasa Jahve, Boga svoga.
And you will become a very small band, though your numbers were like the stars of heaven; because you did not give ear to the voice of the Lord your God.
63 Kako se Jahve nad vama radovao usrećujući vas i množeći, tako će se Jahve radovati nad vama rušeći vas i uništavajući da se iskorijenite sa zemlje u koju idete da je zaposjednete.
And as the Lord took delight in doing you good and increasing you, so the Lord will take pleasure in cutting you off and causing your destruction, and you will be uprooted from the land which you are about to take as your heritage.
64 Jahve će vas razbacati po svim narodima, s kraja na kraj zemlje; ondje ćeš iskazivati štovanje drugim bogovima: drvenim i kamenim - koji su bili nepoznati i tebi i tvojim ocima.
And the Lord will send you wandering among all peoples, from one end of the earth to the other: there you will be servants to other gods, of wood and stone, gods of which you and your fathers had no knowledge.
65 Ali među tim narodima nećeš imati mira; ni tvome stopalu neće biti počivališta, nego će ti ondje Jahve dati srce uznemireno, oči utonule, dušu tjeskobnu.
And even among these nations there will be no peace for you, and no rest for your feet: but the Lord will give you there a shaking heart and wasting eyes and weariness of soul:
66 Život tvoj visjet će o niti; bojat ćeš se i danju i noću i nećeš biti siguran za život svoj.
Your very life will be hanging in doubt before you, and day and night will be dark with fears, and nothing in life will be certain:
67 U strahu koji će ti stezati srce i od prizora što će ga oči tvoje gledati, jutrom ćeš govoriti: 'Oh, da je već večer!' a navečer ćeš govoriti: 'Oh, da je već jutro!'
In the morning you will say, If only it was evening! And at evening you will say, If only morning would come! Because of the fear in your hearts and the things which your eyes will see.
68 U Egipat će te na galijama natrag odvesti Jahve putem za koji sam ti rekao da ga više ne smiješ vidjeti. Ondje ćete se vi sami prodavati svojim neprijateljima za robove i ropkinje, ali neće biti kupca.”
And the Lord will take you back to Egypt again in ships, by the way of which I said to you, You will never see it again: there you will be offering yourselves as men-servants and women-servants to your haters for a price, and no man will take you.
