Deuteronomy 4
1 “Now, you Israeli people, obey all the rules and regulations [DOU] that I will teach you. If you do that, you will remain alive and you will enter and occupy/capture the land that Yahweh, the God whom your ancestors [worshiped], is giving to you.
A sada, Izrailju, èuj uredbe i zakone, koje vas uèim da tvorite, da biste poživjeli i ušli u zemlju koju vam daje Gospod Bog otaca vaših i da biste je naslijedili.
2 Do not add anything to what I command you, and do not take anything away from what I tell you. Obey all the commands of Yahweh our God that I am giving to you.
Ništa ne dodajte k rijeèi koju vam ja zapovijedam, niti oduzmite od nje, da biste saèuvali zapovijesti Gospoda Boga svojega koje vam ja zapovijedam.
3 “You have seen what Yahweh did at Baal-Peor [Mountain]. He got rid of all the people who worshiped [the god] Baal there,
Oèi su vaše vidjele šta uèini Gospod s Velfegora; jer svakoga èovjeka koji poðe za Velfegorom istrijebi Gospod Bog tvoj izmeðu tebe.
4 but you who faithfully [continued to worship] Yahweh our God are still alive today.
A vi koji se držaste Gospoda Boga svojega, vi ste svi živi danas.
5 “Note that I have taught you all the rules and regulations, just like Yahweh our God told me to do. He wants you to obey them [when you are living] in the land that you are about to enter and occupy.
Gle, uèio sam vas uredbama i zakonima, kao što mi zapovjedi Gospod Bog moj, da biste tako tvorili u zemlji u koju idete da je naslijedite.
6 Obey them faithfully because, [if you do that], you will show the people of other nations that you are very wise. When they hear about all these laws, they will say, ‘The people of this great nation [of Israel] are certainly very wise [DOU]!’
Držite dakle i izvršujte ih, jer je to mudrost vaša i razum vaš pred narodima, koji æe kad èuju sve ove uredbe reæi: samo je ovaj veliki narod narod mudar i razuman.
7 Even if other nations are great, there is none [RHQ] of them that has a god who is as near to them as Yahweh our God is to us! Whenever we call out to him [to help us, he answers/helps us]
Jer koji je veliki narod kojemu je Bog blizu kao što je Gospod Bog naš kad ga god zazovemo?
8 And there is no [RHQ] other nation, even if it is a great nation, that has laws that are as just/fair as the laws that I am telling to you today.
I koji je narod veliki koji ima uredbe i zakone pravedne kao što je sav ovaj zakon koji iznosim danas pred vas?
9 “But be very careful! [DOU, IDM] Do not forget what you [SYN] have seen [God do]. Remember those things as long as you are alive. Tell them to your children and your grandchildren.
Samo pazi na se i dobro èuvaj dušu svoju, da ne zaboraviš onijeh stvari koje su vidjele oèi tvoje, i da ne izidu iz srca tvojega dokle si god živ; nego da ih obznaniš sinovima svojim i sinovima sinova svojih.
10 Tell them about the day that your ancestors stood in the presence of Yahweh our God at Sinai [Mountain], when he said to me, ‘Gather the people together, in order that they can hear what I say. I want them to learn to have an awesome respect for me as long as they are alive, and I want them to teach their children to do that also.’
Onaj dan kad stajaste pred Gospodom Bogom svojim kod Horiva, kad mi Gospod reèe: saberi mi narod da im kažem rijeèi svoje, kojima æe se nauèiti da me se boje dok su živi na zemlji, i da uèe tome i sinove svoje;
11 [Tell them that] your ancestors came near the bottom of the mountain, while the mountain burned with a fire that went up to the sky, and the mountain was covered with dark clouds and black [smoke].
Kad pristupiste i stajaste pod gorom, a gora ognjem goraše do samoga neba i bješe na njoj tama i oblak i mrak;
12 Then Yahweh spoke to your ancestors out of the middle of the fire. Your ancestors heard him speak, but they did not see him. They only heard his voice.
I progovori Gospod k vama isred ognja; glas od rijeèi èuste, ali osim glasa lika ne vidjeste;
13 And he declared to them his agreement. That agreement contained the Ten Commandments that he wants you to obey. He wrote those on two stone tablets.
I objavi vam zavjet svoj, koji vam zapovjedi da držite, deset rijeèi, koje napisa na dvije ploèe kamene.
14 Yahweh commanded me to teach all the rules and regulations to you, in order that you would obey them in the land that you are about to enter and occupy.”
I meni zapovjedi onda Gospod da vas uèim uredbama i zakonima da ih tvorite u zemlji u koju idete da je naslijedite.
15 “On the day that Yahweh spoke to your ancestors at Sinai [Mountain], he was invisible. So, be careful
Zato èuvajte dobro duše svoje; jer ne vidjeste nikakoga lika u onaj dan kad vam govori Gospod na Horivu isred ognja,
16 that you do not sin by making for yourselves any idol [of something that can be seen!] not make an idol that resembles any person, either a man or a woman,
Da se ne biste pokvarili i naèinili sebi lik rezan ili kaku god sliku od èovjeka ili od žene,
17 or that resembles any animal or any bird
Sliku od kakoga živinèeta koje je na zemlji, ili sliku od kake ptice krilate koja leti ispod neba;
18 or any (reptile/creature that scurries across the ground) or any fish in the deep ocean.
Sliku od èega što puže po zemlji, ili sliku od kake ribe koja je u vodi pod zemljom;
19 And be careful to not look up toward the sky and be tempted to worship anything that you see there—the sun or the moon or the stars. Yahweh our God has given those to [be a blessing to] all people everywhere, [but you must not worship them].
I da ne bi podigavši oèi svoje k nebu i vidjevši sunce i mjesec i zvijezde, svu vojsku nebesku, prevario se i klanjao im se i služio im; jer ih Gospod Bog tvoj dade svijem narodima pod cijelijem nebom;
20 Yahweh has brought your ancestors out of Egypt, where [they were suffering as though] they were in a blazing furnace, in order that they would be people who belong to him, which is what you are today.
A vas uze Gospod i izvede vas iz peæi gvozdene, iz Misira, da mu budete narod našljedni, kao što se vidi danas.
21 “But Yahweh was angry with me because of [what] your ancestors [made me do]. He vowed that I would not cross the Jordan [River] to enter the good/fertile land that he is giving to you.
Ali se Gospod razgnjevi na me za vaše rijeèi, i zakle se da neæu prijeæi preko Jordana ni uæi u dobru zemlju, koju ti Gospod Bog tvoj daje u našljedstvo.
22 He said that I must die here in this land and never cross the Jordan [River]. But you will go across it, and you will occupy that land.
I ja æu umrijeti u ovoj zemlji i neæu prijeæi preko Jordana; a vi æete prijeæi i naslijediti onu dobru zemlju.
23 Be sure that you do not forget the agreement that Yahweh our God made with you. He commanded you to not make any kind of idol, because he has forbidden that.
Pazite da ne zaboravite zavjeta Gospoda Boga svojega, koji uèini s vama, i da ne gradite sebi lika rezanoga, slike od koje god tvari, kao što ti je zabranio Gospod Bog tvoj.
24 [You must not do that] because Yahweh your God will destroy [anyone who worships idols, ] like [MET] a fire completely destroys things. He [wants people to worship only him, he] (cannot accept/will punish) people who worship anyone or anything else.
Jer je Gospod Bog tvoj oganj koji spaljuje i Bog koji revnuje.
25 “When you have been in the land [of Canaan] for a long time and you have children and grandchildren, do not sin by making an idol that represents anything at all, because Yahweh says that is evil, and if you do that, you will cause him to become angry with you [and punish you].
Kad izrodiš sinove i unuke, i ostarite u onoj zemlji, ako se pokvarite i naèinite sliku rezanu od kake tvari i uèinite što nije ugodno Gospodu Bogu vašemu, dražeæi ga,
26 Today I am requesting everyone who is in heaven and everyone who is on the earth [MTY] to watch what you are doing. [If you disobey what I am telling you], you will soon all die in the land that you will be crossing the Jordan [River] to occupy. You will not live very long there; Yahweh will completely get rid of many [HYP] of you.
Svjedoèim vam danas nebom i zemljom da æe vas brzo nestati sa zemlje u koju idete preko Jordana da je naslijedite, neæete biti dugo u njoj, nego æete se istrijebiti.
27 And [the rest of you], Yahweh will force you to go and live among the people of many other nations. Only a few of you will (survive/remain alive) there.
Ili æe vas rasijati Gospod meðu narode, i malo æe vas ostati meðu narodima u koje vas odvede Gospod;
28 When you are in those nations, you will worship gods that are made of wood and stone, gods made by humans, gods that cannot see anything or hear anything or eat anything or smell anything.
I služiæete ondje bogovima koje su naèinile ruke èovjeèije, od drveta i od kamena, koji ne vide ni èuju, niti jedu ni mirišu.
29 But while you are there, if you will try to know Yahweh your God, and if you try with your entire inner being to know him, he will (answer/reveal himself to) you.
Ali ako i ondje potražiš Gospoda Boga svojega, naæi æeš ga, ako ga potražiš svijem srcem svojim i svom dušom svojom.
30 In the future, after you have been mistreated there and all those bad things happen to you, you will again worship only Yahweh and obey him.
Kad budeš u nevolji i sve te to snaðe, ako se u pošljednje vrijeme obratiš ka Gospodu Bogu svojemu, i poslušaš glas njegov,
31 Yahweh is a God who acts mercifully. [If you continue to obey him], he will not abandon you or destroy you or forget the agreement that he solemnly made with your ancestors.”
Gospod je Bog tvoj milostiv Bog, neæe te ostaviti ni istrijebiti, jer neæe zaboraviti zavjeta s ocima tvojim, za koji im se zakleo.
32 “Now think about the past, about the time before you were born, about all the time since God first created people here on the earth. You could search everywhere, in heaven and on the earth. (Has anything like this ever happened that is as great as [what Yahweh did for the Israeli people]?/Certainly nothing has ever happened that is as great [as what Yahweh did for the Israeli people].) [RHQ] (Has anyone ever heard of anything like this?/Certainly no one has ever heard of anything like this.) [RHQ]
Jer zapitaj sada za stara vremena, koja su bila prije tebe, od onoga dana kad stvori Bog èovjeka na zemlji, i od jednoga kraja neba do drugoga, je li kad bila ovaka stvar velika, i je li se kad èulo što tako?
33 (Has any group ever remained alive after they heard a god speak to them from the middle of a fire, like we did?/Certainly no group has ever remained alive after they heard a god speak to them from the middle of a fire, like we did.) [RHQ]
Je li kad èuo koji narod glas Božji gdje govori isred ognja, kao što si ti èuo i ostao živ?
34 Certainly no other god has ever tried to take a [huge] group of people from one nation [to another location], like he did for us when he brought us out of Egypt. We saw Yahweh our God use great power [MTY, DOU] when he performed many kinds of [DOU] miracles, and sent plagues, and did many other very terrifying things in Egypt for us, [and rescued us when the army of Egypt tried to fight against us].
Ili, je li Bog pokušao da doðe te uzme sebi narod iz drugoga naroda kušanjem, znacima i èudesima i ratom i rukom krjepkom i mišicom podignutom i strahotama velikim, kao što je uèinio sve to za vas Gospod Bog naš u Misiru na vaše oèi?
35 “Yahweh showed all these things to you, in order that you would know that only he is truly God, and that there is no other God.
Tebi je to pokazano da poznaš da je Gospod Bog, i da nema drugoga osim njega.
36 He allowed your ancestors to hear him speak from heaven in order that he could discipline them. Here on the earth he allowed them to see his great fire [on Sinai Mountain], and he spoke to them from the middle of the fire.
Dao ti je da èuješ glas njegov s neba da bi te nauèio, i pokazao ti je na zemlji oganj svoj veliki, i rijeèi njegove èuo si isred ognja.
37 Because he loved our ancestors, he chose you Israelis who are their descendants, and by his great power he brought your ancestors out of Egypt.
I što mu mili bijahu oci tvoji, zato izabra sjeme njihovo nakon njih, i izvede te sam velikom silom svojom iz Misira,
38 [As they advanced], he expelled the people of nations that were greater and more powerful than they were, in order that he could allow them to capture their land and cause it to become yours, which is [what is happening] now.
Da otjera ispred tebe narode veæe i jaèe od tebe, i da tebe uvede u njihovu zemlju i dade ti je u našljedstvo, kao što se vidi danas.
39 “So today you should (meditate on/think about) the fact that Yahweh is God, that he is/rules in heaven and also on the earth, and that there is no other god.
Znaj dakle i pamti u srcu svojem da je Gospod Bog, gore na nebu i dolje na zemlji, nema drugoga.
40 Obey all the rules and regulations that I am giving to you today, in order that things will go well for you and for your descendants, and that you will live a long time in the land that Yahweh our God is giving to you, [to belong to you] forever.”
I drži uredbe njegove i zapovijesti njegove, koje ti ja danas zapovijedam, da bi dobro bilo tebi i sinovima tvojim nakon tebe, da bi ti se produljili dani na zemlji koju ti Gospod Bog tvoj daje zasvagda.
41 Then Moses/I set apart three cities that are on the east side of the Jordan [River].
Tada odijeli Mojsije tri grada s ovu stranu Jordana prema istoku,
42 If someone accidentally killed another person, a person who had not been his enemy previously, he could escape to one of those cities. He would be safe/protected in one of those cities [because the people there would protect him].
Da bi utjecao u njih krvnik koji ubije bližnjega svojega nehotice ne mrzivši prije na nj, i kad uteèe u koji od tijeh gradova, da bi ostao živ:
43 For the tribe of Reuben, Moses/I set apart Bezer [city] in the (plateau/high level) area. For the tribe of Gad, Moses/I set apart Ramoth [city] in the Gilead [area]. For the tribe of Manasseh, Moses/I set apart Golan [city] in the Bashan [region].
Vosor u pustinji, na ravnici u zemlji plemena Ruvimova, i Ramot u Galadu u plemenu Gadovu, Golan u Vasanskoj u plemenu Manasijinu.
44 Moses/I gave [God’s] laws to the Israeli people.
Ovo je zakon koji postavi Mojsije sinovima Izrailjevijem.
45 They included all the rules and instructions and commands that Moses/I gave to them, after they/we had come out of Egypt,
Ovo su svjedoèanstva i uredbe i zakoni, koje kaza Mojsije sinovima Izrailjevijem kad izidoše iz Misira,
46 when they/we were in the valley east of the Jordan [River]. They/We were across from Beth-Peor [town], in the land that [previously] was ruled by Sihon, the king of the Amor people-group, who lived in Heshbon [city]. Moses/I and the other Israelis had defeated his [army] when they/we came out of Egypt.
S ovu stranu Jordana u dolini prema Vet-Fegoru u zemlji Siona cara Amorejskoga, koji življaše u Esevonu, kojega ubi Mojsije i sinovi Izrailjevi kad izidoše iz Misira,
47 They/We captured Sihon’s land and the land that Og, the king of the Bashan [region], ruled. They were the two kings who ruled the Amor people-group [in the area] east of the Jordan [River].
I osvojiše zemlju njegovu i zemlju Oga cara Vasanskoga, dva cara Amorejska, koja je s ovu stranu Jordana prema istoku,
48 Their land extended from Aroer [town in the south] along the Arnon [River], as far [north] as Sirion Mountain, which [most people] call Hermon Mountain.
Od Aroira, koji je na potoku Arnonu, do gore Siona, a to je Ermon,
49 It also included all the area east of the Jordan [River] Valley, all the way south to the Dead Sea and east to the slopes of Pisgah [Mountain].
I sve polje s ovu stranu Jordana prema istoku do mora uz ravnicu pod Azdot-Fazgom.
