5 Mojzes 33

1 To je blagoslov, s katerim je Mojzes, Božji mož, pred svojo smrtjo blagoslovil Izraelove otroke.

And this [is] the blessing with which Moses the man of God blessed the children of Israel before his death.

2 Rekel je: » Gospod je prišel s Sinaja in se iz Seírja dvignil k njim. On sije z gore Parán in prišel je z deset tisoči svetih. Iz njegove desnice je šla zanje ognjena postava.

And he said, The Lord is come from Sina, and has appeared from Seir to us, and has hasted out of the mount of Pharan, with the ten thousands of Cades; on his right hand [were] his angels with him.

3 Da, ljubil je ljudstvo. Vsi njegovi sveti so v tvoji roki in usedli so se pri tvojih stopalih; vsak bo prejel od tvojih besed.

And he spared his people, and all his sanctified ones [are] under your hands; and they are under you; and he received of his words

4 Mojzes nam je zapovedal postavo, torej dediščino Jakobove skupnosti.

the law which Moses charged us, an inheritance to the assemblies of Jacob.

5 In on je bil kralj v Ješurúnu, ko so se zbrali skupaj poglavarji ljudstva in so bili Izraelovi rodovi zbrani skupaj.

And he shall be prince with the beloved one, when the princes of the people are gathered together with the tribes of Israel.

6 Naj Ruben živi in ne umre in naj njegovih mož ne bo malo.«

Let Ruben live, and not die; and let him be many in number.

7 To je blagoslov za Juda. Rekel je: »Prisluhni, Gospod, Judovemu glasu in privedi ga k svojemu ljudstvu. Naj mu njegove roke zadoščajo in ti mu bodi pomoč pred njegovimi sovražniki.«

And this [is the blessing] of Juda; Hear, Lord, the voice of Juda, and do you visit his people: his hands shall contend for him, and you shall be a help from his enemies.

8 O Léviju je rekel: » Naj bosta tvoj Tumím in tvoj Urím s tvojim svetim, ki si ga preizkusil pri Masi in s katerim si se prepiral pri vodah Meríbe,

And to Levi he said, Give to Levi his manifestations, and his truth to the holy man, whom they tempted in the temptation; they reviled him at the water of strife.

9 ki je svojemu očetu in svoji materi rekel: ›Nisem ga videl.‹ Niti ni priznal svojih bratov niti spoznal svojih lastnih otrok, kajti obeležili so tvojo besedo in se držali tvoje zaveze.

Who says to his father and mother, I have not seen you; and he knew not his brethren, and he refused to know his sons: he kept your oracles, and observed your covenant.

10 Jakoba bodo učili tvojih sodb in Izraela tvoje postave. Pred teboj bodo postavili kadilo in celotno žgalno daritev na tvoj oltar.

They shall declare your ordinances to Jacob, and your law to Israel: they shall place incense in [the time of] your wrath continually upon your altar.

11 Blagoslovi Gospod njegovo imetje in sprejmi delo njegovih rok. Skozi ledja udari tiste, ki vstajajo zoper njega in izmed tistih, ki ga sovražijo, da ne vstanejo ponovno.«

Bless, Lord, his strength, and accept the works of his hands; break the loins of his enemies that have risen up against him, and let not them that hate him rise up.

12 In o Benjaminu je rekel: »Ljubljen od Gospoda bo varno prebival pri njem in Gospod ga bo ves dan pokrival in prebival bo med njegovimi rameni.«

And to Benjamin he said, The beloved of the Lord shall dwell in confidence, and God overshadows him always, and he rested between his shoulders.

13 O Jožefu je rekel: »Njegova dežela naj bo blagoslovljena od Gospoda, za dragocene stvari z neba in za roso in za globino, ki leži spodaj

And to Joseph he said, His land [is] of the blessing of the Lord, of the seasons of sky and dew, and of the deeps of wells below,

14 in za dragoceno sadje, porojeno s soncem in za dragocene stvari, navržene z luno

and of the fruits of the changes of the sun in season, and of the produce of the months,

15 in za vodilne stvari starodavnih gora in za dragocene stvari trajnih hribov

from the top of the ancient mountains, and from the top of the everlasting hills,

16 in za dragocene stvari zemlje in njene polnosti in za dobro voljo tistega, ki je prebival v grmu. Naj nad Jožefovo glavo pride blagoslov in na vrh glave tistega, ki je bil ločen od svojih bratov.

and of the fullness of the land in season: and let the things pleasing to him that lived in the bush come on the head of Joseph, and on the crown [of him who was] glorified above his brethren.

17 Njegova slava je podobna prvencu njegovega bikca in njegovi rogovi so podobni rogovom samorogov. Z njimi bo suval ljudstvo skupaj h koncem zemlje, in oni so Efrájimovi deset tisoči in oni so Manásejevi deset tisoči.«

His beauty [is as] the firstling of his bull, his horns [are] the horns of a unicorn; with them he shall thrust the nations at once, even from the end of the earth: these [are] the ten thousands of Ephraim, and these [are] the thousands of Manasse.

18 O Zábulonu je rekel: »Veseli se Zábulon v svojem odhajanju in Isahár v svojih šotorih.

And to Zabulon he said, Rejoice, Zabulon, in your going out, and Issachar in his tents.

19 Ljudstvo bosta klicala h gori. Tam bodo darovali klavne daritve pravičnosti, kajti sesali bodo od obilja morij in od zakladov, skritih v pesku.«

They shall utterly destroy the nations, and you shall call [men] there, and there offer the sacrifice of righteousness; for the wealth of the sea shall suckle you, and so shall the marts of them that dwell by the sea-coast.

20 O Gadu je rekel: »Blagoslovljen bodi, kdor povečuje Gad. Ta prebiva kakor lev in trga laket s têmenom.

And to Gad he said, Blessed [be] he that enlarges Gad: as a lion he rested, having broken the arm and the ruler.

21 Prvi del si je priskrbel zase, ker je bil tam, v deležu postavodajalca, dokončan; in prišel je s poglavarji ljudstva, izvršil je Gospodovo pravičnost in njegove sodbe z Izraelom.«

And he saw his first fruits, that there the land of the princes gathered with the chiefs of the people was divided; the Lord wrought righteousness, and his judgment with Israel.

22 O Danu je rekel: »Dan je levji mladič. Poskakoval bo iz Bašána.«

And to Dan he said, Dan [is] a lion's whelp, and shall leap out of Basan.

23 O Neftáliju je rekel: »Oh Neftáli, nasičen z naklonjenostjo in poln Gospodovega blagoslova. Ti poseduj zahod in jug.«

And to Nephthali he said, Nephthali [has] the fulness of good things; and let him be filled with blessing from the Lord: he shall inherit the west and the south.

24 O Aserju je rekel: »Aser naj bo blagoslovljen z otroki. Sprejemljiv naj bo svojim bratom in naj svoje stopalo omoči v olju.

And to Aser he said, Aser [is] blessed with children; and he shall be acceptable to his brethren: he shall dip his foot in oil.

25 Tvoji čevlji bodo železo in bron in kakor tvoji dnevi, takšna bo tvoja moč.

His sandal shall be iron and brass; as your days, so [shall be] your strength.

26 Nobenega ni podobnega Ješurúnovemu Bogu, ki jaha na nebesih v tvojo pomoč in v svoji odličnosti na nebu.

There is not [any such] as the God of the beloved; he who rides upon the heaven [is] your helper, and the magnificent One of the firmament.

27 Večen Bog je tvoje zatočišče in spodaj so večne roke in on bo izpred tebe sunil sovražnika in rekel bo: ›Uniči jih.‹

And the rule of God shall protect you, and [that] under the strength of the everlasting arms; and he shall cast forth the enemy from before your face, saying, Perish.

28 Potem bo Izrael sam prebival na varnem. Jakobov studenec bo na deželi žita in vina; tudi njegovo nebo bo kapljalo roso.

And Israel shall dwell in confidence alone on the land of Jacob, with corn and wine; and the sky [shall be] misty with dew upon you.

29 Srečen si ti, oh Izrael. Kdo je tebi podoben, oh ljudstvo, rešeno po Gospodu, ščitu tvoje pomoči in kdo je meč tvoje odličnosti! In tvoji sovražniki ti bodo najdeni kot lažnivci, in teptal jih boš na njihovih visokih krajih.«

Blessed [are] you, O Israel; who [is] like to you, O people saved by the Lord? your helper shall hold his shield over you, and [his] sword [is] your boast; and your enemies shall speak falsely to you, and you shall tread upon their neck.
