Deuteronomy 32
1 Give ear, O ye heavens, and I will speak; and hear, O earth, the words of my mouth.
»Pazljivo prisluhni, oh ti nebo, jaz pa bom govoril in sliši, oh zemlja, besede mojih ust.
2 My doctrine shall drop as the rain, my speech shall distil as the dew, as the small rain upon the tender herb, and as the showers upon the grass:
Moj nauk bo kapljal kakor dež, moj govor bo rosil kakor rosa, kakor dežek na nežno zelišče in kakor nalivi na travo,
3 Because I will publish the name of Yhwh: ascribe ye greatness unto our God.
ker bom razglašal Gospodovo ime. Veličino pripišite našemu Bogu.
4 He is the Rock, his work is perfect: for all his ways are judgment: a God of truth and without iniquity, just and right is he.
On je Skala, njegovo delo je popolno, kajti vse njegove poti so sodba. Bog resnice in brez krivičnosti, pravičen in iskren je on.
5 They have corrupted themselves, their spot is not the spot of his children: they are a perverse and crooked generation.
Izpridili so se, njihov madež ni madež njegovih otrok. Sprevržen in sprijen rod so.
6 Do ye thus requite Yhwh, O foolish people and unwise? is not he thy father that hath bought thee? hath he not made thee, and established thee?
Ali tako poplačate Gospodu, oh nespametno in ne-modro ljudstvo? Mar ni on tvoj oče, ki te je kupil? Mar te ni on naredil in te postavil?
7 Remember the days of old, consider the years of many generations: ask thy father, and he will shew thee; thy elders, and they will tell thee.
Spomnite se dni od davnine, preudarite leta mnogih rodov. Vprašajte svojega očeta in vam bo pokazal, svoje starešine in ti bodo povedali.
8 When the most High divided to the nations their inheritance, when he separated the sons of Adam, he set the bounds of the people according to the number of the children of Israel.
Ko je Najvišji narodom razdelil njihovo dediščino, ko je ločil Adamove sinove, je ljudstvu postavil meje, glede na število Izraelovih otrok.
9 For Yhwh's portion is his people; Jacob is the lot of his inheritance.
Kajti Gospodov delež je njegovo ljudstvo; Jakob je žreb njegove dediščine.
10 He found him in a desert land, and in the waste howling wilderness; he led him about, he instructed him, he kept him as the apple of his eye.
Našel ga je v zapuščeni deželi in v opustošeni, tuleči divjini. Vodil ga je naokrog, poučeval ga je, ga varoval kakor punčico svojega očesa.
11 As an eagle stirreth up her nest, fluttereth over her young, spreadeth abroad her wings, taketh them, beareth them on her wings:
Kakor orlica spodbuja svoje gnezdo, frfota nad svojimi mladiči, široko razširja svoje peruti, jih jemlje in nosi na svojih perutih,
12 So Yhwh alone did lead him, and there was no strange god with him.
tako ga je Gospod sam vodil in tam z njim ni bilo tujega boga.
13 He made him ride on the high places of the earth, that he might eat the increase of the fields; and he made him to suck honey out of the rock, and oil out of the flinty rock;
Dal mu je jahati na visokih krajih zemlje, da bi lahko jedel donos od polj in storil mu je, da sesa med iz skale in olje iz kremenčeve skale,
14 Butter of kine, and milk of sheep, with fat of lambs, and rams of the breed of Bashan, and goats, with the fat of kidneys of wheat; and thou didst drink the pure blood of the grape.
maslo goveda in mleko ovc, s tolščo jagnjet in ovni bašánske pasme in koze, z najbogatejšo notranjostjo zrna in pil si čisto kri grozdnih jagod.
15 But Jeshurun waxed fat, and kicked: thou art waxen fat, thou art grown thick, thou art covered with fatness; then he forsook God which made him, and lightly esteemed the Rock of his salvation.
Toda Ješurún se je odebelil in brcal. Postal si debel, postal si gost, pokrit si z maščobo. Potem je zapustil Boga, ki ga je naredil in preziral Skalo rešitve svoje duše.
16 They provoked him to jealousy with strange gods, with abominations provoked they him to anger.
S tujimi bogovi so ga dražili do ljubosumnosti, z ogabnostmi so ga izzivali k jezi.
17 They sacrificed unto devils, not to God; to gods whom they knew not, to new gods that came newly up, whom your fathers feared not.
Žrtvovali so hudičem, ne pa Bogu, bogovom, ki jih niso poznali, novim bogovom, ki so se na novo pojavili, ki se jih vaši očetje niso bali.
18 Of the Rock that begat thee thou art unmindful, and hast forgotten God that formed thee.
Nisi mislil na Skalo, ki te je spočela in pozabil si Boga, ki te je oblikoval.
19 And when Yhwh saw it, he abhorred them, because of the provoking of his sons, and of his daughters.
Ko je Gospod to videl, jih je zaničeval, ker so ga njegovi sinovi in njegove hčere jezili.
20 And he said, I will hide my face from them, I will see what their end shall be: for they are a very perverse generation, children in whom is no faith.
Rekel je: ›Svoj obraz bom skril pred njimi. Videl bom kakšen bo njihov konec, kajti zelo kljubovalen rod so, otroci, v katerih ni vere.
21 They have moved me to jealousy with that which is not God; they have provoked me to anger with their vanities: and I will move them to jealousy with those which are not a people; I will provoke them to anger with a foolish nation.
Ganili so me do ljubosumja s tem, kar ni Bog; s svojimi ničevostmi so me izzivali k jezi. Do ljubosumja jih bom ganil s tistimi, ki niso ljudstvo; k jezi jih bom izzival z nespametnim narodom.
22 For a fire is kindled in mine anger, and shall burn unto the lowest hell, and shall consume the earth with her increase, and set on fire the foundations of the mountains. (Sheol h7585)
Kajti v moji jezi je vžgan ogenj in gorel bo do najnižjega pekla in použil bo zemljo z njenim narastom in vžgal bo temelje gora. (Sheol h7585)
23 I will heap mischiefs upon them; I will spend mine arrows upon them.
Nanje bom nakopičil vragolije, nanje bom poslal svoje puščice.
24 They shall be burnt with hunger, and devoured with burning heat, and with bitter destruction: I will also send the teeth of beasts upon them, with the poison of serpents of the dust.
Izčrpani bodo z lakoto in požrti z gorečo vročino in z grenkim uničenjem. Nadnje bom poslal tudi zobe zveri, s strupom kač, [ki se plazijo po] prahu.
25 The sword without, and terror within, shall destroy both the young man and the virgin, the suckling also with the man of gray hairs.
Meč zunaj in strahota znotraj bo uničila tako mladeniča kot devico, tudi dojenčka z možem sivih las.‹
26 I said, I would scatter them into corners, I would make the remembrance of them to cease from among men:
Rekel sem: ›Razkropil jih bom v kote in storil bom, da spomin nanje zbledi med ljudmi.
27 Were it not that I feared the wrath of the enemy, lest their adversaries should behave themselves strangely, and lest they should say, Our hand is high, And Yhwh hath not done all this.
Mar ni bilo, da sem se bal sovražnikovega besa, da se ne bi njihovi nasprotniki čudno obnašali in da ne bi rekli: ›Naša roka je visoko in Gospod ni storil vsega tega.‹‹
28 For they are a nation void of counsel, neither is there any understanding in them.
Kajti oni so narod brez preudarnosti niti ni nobenega razumevanja v njih.
29 O that they were wise, that they understood this, that they would consider their latter end!
Oh, da bi bili modri, da bi to razumeli, da bi preudarili svoj zadnji konec!
30 How should one chase a thousand, and two put ten thousand to flight, except their Rock had sold them, And Yhwh had shut them up?
Kako naj jih eden prežene tisoč in dva pripravita deset tisoč, da bežijo, razen, da jih je njihova Skala prodala in jih je Gospod izročil?
31 For their rock is not as our Rock, even our enemies themselves being judges.
Kajti njihova skala ni kakor naša Skala, celo sami naši sovražniki so sodniki.
32 For their vine is of the vine of Sodom, and of the fields of Gomorrah: their grapes are grapes of gall, their clusters are bitter:
Kajti njihova trta je iz sódomske trte in iz gomórskih polj. Njihovo grozdje je grozdje žolča, njihovi grozdi so grenki.
33 Their wine is the poison of dragons, and the cruel venom of asps.
Njihovo vino je strup zmajev in krut strup kober.
34 Is not this laid up in store with me, and sealed up among my treasures?
Mar ni to prihranjeno v shrambi z menoj in zapečateno med mojimi zakladi?
35 To me belongeth vengeance, and recompence; their foot shall slide in due time: for the day of their calamity is at hand, and the things that shall come upon them make haste.
Meni pripada maščevanje in povračilo. Njihovo stopalo bo zdrsnilo ob pravem času, kajti dan njihove katastrofe je pri roki in stvari, ki bodo prišle nadnje, hitijo.
36 For Yhwh shall judge his people, and repent himself for his servants, when he seeth that their power is gone, and there is none shut up, or left.
Kajti Gospod bo sodil svoje ljudstvo in se pokesal zaradi svojih služabnikov, ko vidi, da je njihova moč odšla in tam ni nikogar zaprtega ali preostalega.
37 And he shall say, Where are their gods, their rock in whom they trusted,
Rekel bo: ›Kje so njihovi bogovi, njihova skala, v katero so zaupali,
38 Which did eat the fat of their sacrifices, and drank the wine of their drink offerings? let them rise up and help you, and be your protection.
ki so jedli tolščo svojih klavnih daritev in pili vino svojih pitnih daritev? Naj vstanejo in vam pomagajo in bodo vaša zaščita.
39 See now that I, even I, am he, and there is no god with me: I kill, and I make alive; I wound, and I heal: neither is there any that can deliver out of my hand.
Poglej sedaj, da sem jaz, celó jaz sam in tukaj ni boga z menoj. Jaz ubijam in jaz oživljam; jaz ranim in jaz ozdravljam. Niti tam ni nobenega, ki lahko osvobodi iz moje roke.
40 For I lift up my hand to heaven, and say, I live for ever.
Kajti svojo roko dvignem do neba in rečem: ›Jaz živim na veke.‹
41 If I whet my glittering sword, and mine hand take hold on judgment; I will render vengeance to mine enemies, and will reward them that hate me.
Če nabrusim svoj lesketajoči meč in moja roka zgrabi sodbo, bom povrnil maščevanje svojim sovražnikom in nagradil tiste, ki me sovražijo.
42 I will make mine arrows drunk with blood, and my sword shall devour flesh; and that with the blood of the slain and of the captives, from the beginning of revenges upon the enemy.
Svoje puščice bom opijanil s krvjo in moj meč bo žrl meso in to s krvjo umorjenih in ujetnikov, od začetka maščevanj nad sovražnikom.‹
43 Rejoice, O ye nations, with his people: for he will avenge the blood of his servants, and will render vengeance to his adversaries, and will be merciful unto his land, and to his people.
Veselite se, oh vi narodi, z njegovim ljudstvom, kajti maščeval bo kri svojih služabnikov in povrnil bo maščevanje svojim nasprotnikom in usmiljen bo do svoje dežele in do svojega ljudstva.«
44 And Moses came and spake all the words of this song in the ears of the people, he, and Hoshea the son of Nun.
Mojzes je prišel in vse besede te pesmi spregovoril v ušesa ljudstva, on in Nunov sin Hošéa.
45 And Moses made an end of speaking all these words to all Israel:
Mojzes je končal govorjenje vseh teh besed vsemu Izraelu.
46 And he said unto them, Set your hearts unto all the words which I testify among you this day, which ye shall command your children to observe to do, all the words of this law.
Rekel jim je: »Nastavite svoja srca k vsem besedam, ki jih ta dan pričujem med vami, ki jih boste zapovedali svojim otrokom, da jih obeležujejo, da jih storijo, vse besede te postave.
47 For it is not a vain thing for you; because it is your life: and through this thing ye shall prolong your days in the land, whither ye go over Jordan to possess it.
Kajti to za vas ni prazna stvar, ker to je vaše življenje in zaradi te stvari boste podaljšali svoje dni v deželi, kamor greste čez Jordan, da jo vzamete v last.«
48 And Yhwh spake unto Moses that selfsame day, saying,
Gospod je ta isti dan spregovoril Mojzesu, rekoč:
49 Get thee up into this mountain Abarim, unto mount Nebo, which is in the land of Moab, that is over against Jericho; and behold the land of Canaan, which I give unto the children of Israel for a possession:
»Povzpni se na to gorovje Abarím, na goro Nebó, ki je v deželi Moáb, ki je nasproti Jerihe in poglej kánaansko deželo, ki jo dajem Izraelovim otrokom v posest.
50 And die in the mount whither thou goest up, and be gathered unto thy people; as Aaron thy brother died in mount Hor, and was gathered unto his people:
Umri na gori, kamor se povzpneš in bodi zbran k svojemu ljudstvu, kakor je tvoj brat Aron umrl na gori Hor in je bil zbran k svojemu ljudstvu,
51 Because ye trespassed against me among the children of Israel at the waters of Meribah–Kadesh, in the wilderness of Zin; because ye sanctified me not in the midst of the children of Israel.
ker sta grešila zoper mene med Izraelovimi otroki pri vodah Meríba [v] Kadešu, v Cinski divjini, ker me nista izkazala svetega v sredi Izraelovih otrok.
52 Yet thou shalt see the land before thee; but thou shalt not go thither unto the land which I give the children of Israel.
Vendar boš deželo videl pred seboj, toda ne boš šel tja, v deželo, ki sem jo dal Izraelovim otrokom.«
