Ponovljeni Zakon 9

1 Èuj, Izrailju! ti danas prelaziš preko Jordana da uðeš i naslijediš narode veæe i jaèe od sebe, gradove velike i ograðene do neba;

Hear, Israel; you are about to cross over the Jordan today, to go in to dispossess nations greater and mightier than yourself, and cities that are great and fortified up to heaven,

2 Velik i visok narod, sinove Enakove, koje znaš i za koje si slušao: ko ce odoljeti sinovima Enakovijem?

a people great and tall, the sons of the Anakim, whom you know, and of whom you have heard people say, 'Who can stand before the sons of Anak?'

3 Znaj dakle danas da je Gospod Bog tvoj, koji ide pred tobom, oganj koji spaljuje; on æe ih istrijebiti i on æe ih oboriti pred tobom, i izagnaæeš ih i istrijebiti brzo, kao što ti je kazao Gospod.

Know therefore today that Yahweh your God is he who goes over before you like a devouring fire; he will destroy them, and he will subdue them before you; so will you drive them out and make them to perish quickly, as Yahweh has said to you.

4 Kad ih Gospod Bog tvoj otjera ispred tebe, nemoj da reèeš u srcu svom: za pravdu moju uvede me Gospod u ovu zemlju da je naslijedim; jer Gospod tjera one narode ispred tebe za nevaljalstvo njihovo!

Do not say in your heart, after Yahweh your God has thrust them out from before you, 'It was because of my righteousness that Yahweh has brought me in to possess this land,' for it was because of the wickedness of these nations that Yahweh is driving them out from before you.

5 Ne ideš za pravdu svoju ni za èistotu srca svojega da naslijediš tu zemlju; nego za nevaljalstvo tijeh naroda Gospod Bog tvoj tjera ih ispred tebe, i da održi rijeè za koju se zakleo ocima tvojim, Avramu, Isaku i Jakovu.

It is not because of your righteousness or the uprightness of your heart that you are going in to possess their land, but it is because of the wickedness of these nations that your God is driving them out from before you, and so that he may make come true the word that he swore to your ancestors, to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.

6 Znaj dakle da ti Gospod Bog tvoj ne daje te dobre zemlje za pravdu tvoju da je naslijediš, jer si tvrdovrat narod.

Know therefore, that Yahweh your God is not giving you this good land to possess because of your righteousness, for you are a stubborn people.

7 Pamti i ne zaboravi kako si gnjevio Gospoda Boga svojega u pustinji; od onoga dana kad izidoste iz zemlje Misirske pa dokle doðoste na ovo mjesto, nepokorni bijaste Gospodu.

Remember and do not forget how you provoked Yahweh your God to anger in the wilderness; from the day that you left the land of Egypt until you came to this place, you have been rebellious against Yahweh.

8 I kod Horiva razgnjeviste Gospoda, i od gnjeva šæaše vas Gospod da istrijebi.

Also at Horeb you provoked Yahweh to anger, and Yahweh was angry enough with you to destroy you.

9 Kad izidoh na goru da primim ploèe kamene, ploèe zavjeta, koji s vama uèini Gospod, tada stajah na gori èetrdeset dana i èetrdeset noæi hljeba ne jeduæi ni vode pijuæi.

When I went up the mountain to receive the tablets of stone, the tablets of the covenant that Yahweh made with you, I stayed on the mountain for forty days and forty nights; I neither ate bread nor drank water.

10 I dade mi Gospod dvije ploèe kamene, ispisane prstom Gospodnjim, na kojima bijahu rijeèi sve koje vam izgovori Gospod na gori isred ognja na dan zbora vašega.

Yahweh gave to me the two tablets of stone written with his finger; on them was written everything just like all the words that Yahweh announced to you on the mountain out of the middle of the fire on the day of the assembly.

11 Poslije èetrdeset dana i èetrdeset noæi dade mi Gospod dvije ploèe kamene, ploèe zavjetne.

It happened at the end of those forty days and forty nights that Yahweh gave me the two tablets of stone, the tablets of the covenant.

12 I reèe mi Gospod: ustani, siði brže odavde; jer se pokvari narod tvoj koji si izveo iz Misira, siðoše brzo s puta koji im zapovjedih, i naèiniše sebi liven lik.

Yahweh said to me, 'Arise, go down quickly from here, for your people, whom you brought out of Egypt, have corrupted themselves. They have quickly turned aside out of the path that I commanded them. They have made for themselves a cast figure.'

13 Još mi reèe Gospod govoreæi: pogledah ovaj narod, i eto je narod tvrda vrata.

Furthermore, Yahweh spoke to me and said, 'I have seen this people; they are a stubborn people.

14 Pusti me da ih istrijebim i ime njihovo zatrem pod nebom; a od tebe æu uèiniti narod jaèi i veæi nego što je ovaj.

Let me alone, so that I may destroy them and blot out their name from under heaven, and I will make of you a nation mightier and greater than they.'

15 I ja se vratih i siðoh s gore, a gora ognjem goraše, i dvije ploèe zavjetne bijahu mi u ruku.

So I turned around and came down the mountain, and the mountain was burning. The two tablets of the covenant were in my hands.

16 I pogledah, a to zgriješiste Gospodu Bogu svojemu salivši sebi tele, i brzo siðoste s puta koji vam bješe zapovjedio Gospod.

I looked, and behold, you had sinned against Yahweh your God. You had molded for yourselves a calf. You had quickly turned aside out of the path that Yahweh had commanded you.

17 Tada uzeh one dvije ploèe i bacih ih iz ruku svojih, i razbih ih pred vama.

I took the two tablets and threw them out of my hands. I broke them before your eyes.

18 Potom padoh i ležah pred Gospodom kao prije, èetrdeset dana i èetrdeset noæi, hljeba ne jeduæi ni vode pijuæi, radi svijeh grijeha vaših, kojima se ogriješiste uèinivši što je zlo pred Gospodom i razgnjevivši ga.

Again I lay facedown before Yahweh for forty days and forty nights; I neither ate bread nor drank water, because of all your sin that you had committed, in doing that which was evil in the sight of Yahweh, so as to provoke him to anger.

19 Jer se bojah gnjeva i jarosti, kojom se bješe Gospod razljutio na vas da vas istrijebi; i usliši me Gospod i tada.

For I was afraid of the anger and hot displeasure with which Yahweh was angry enough against you to destroy you. But Yahweh listened to me that time also.

20 Bješe se Gospod i na Arona razgnjevio veoma da ga šæaše ubiti; ali se molih tada i za Arona.

Yahweh was very angry with Aaron so as to destroy him; I prayed for Aaron also at the same time.

21 I uzeh grijeh vaš koji uèiniste, tele, i sažegoh ga ognjem, i razbih ga i satrh ga u prah, i prosuh prah njegov u potok, koji teèe s one gore.

I took your sin, the calf that you had made, and burned it, beat it, and ground it very small, until it was as fine as dust. I threw its dust into the stream that came down from the mountain.

22 I u Taveri i u Masi i u Kivrot-Atavi gnjeviste Gospoda.

At Taberah, at Massah, and at Kibroth Hattaavah, you provoked Yahweh to wrath.

23 I kad vas posla Gospod iz Kadis-Varnije govoreæi: idite i uzmite tu zemlju koju sam vam dao, opet se suprotiste rijeèi Gospoda Boga svojega, i ne vjerovaste mu i ne poslušaste glasa njegova.

When Yahweh sent you from Kadesh Barnea and said, 'Go up and take possession of the land that I have given you,' then you rebelled against the commandment of Yahweh your God, and you did not believe or listen to his voice.

24 Nepokorni bijaste Gospodu otkad vas poznah.

You have been rebellious against Yahweh from the day that I knew you.

25 Zato padoh i ležah pred Gospodom èetrdeset dana i èetrdeset noæi, jer bješe rekao Gospod da æe vas potrti.

So I lay facedown before Yahweh those forty days and forty nights, because he had said that he would destroy you.

26 I molih se Gospodu i rekoh: Gospode, Gospode! nemoj potrti naroda svojega i našljedstva svojega, koje si izbavio velièanstvom svojim, koje si izveo iz Misira krjepkom rukom.

I prayed to Yahweh and said, 'O Lord Yahweh, do not destroy your people or your inheritance whom you have redeemed through your greatness, which you have brought out of Egypt with a mighty hand.

27 Opomeni se sluga svojih Avrama, Isaka i Jakova, ne gledaj na tvrðu naroda ovoga, na nevaljalstvo njegovo i na grijehe njegove;

Call to mind your servants Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; do not look at the stubbornness of this people, nor at their wickedness, nor at their sin,

28 Da ne reku koji žive u zemlji odakle si nas izveo: nije ih mogao Gospod uvesti u zemlju koju im obeæa, ili mrzio je na njih, zato ih izvede da ih pobije u pustinji.

so that the land from where you brought us should say, “Because Yahweh was not able to bring them into the land that he promised to them, and because he hated them, he has brought them out to kill them in the wilderness.”

29 Jer su tvoj narod i tvoje našljedstvo, koje si izveo silom svojom velikom i mišicom svojom podignutom.

Yet they are your people and your inheritance, whom you brought out by your great strength and by the display of your power.'
