Jozue 22

1 Potem je Józue poklical Rubenovce, Gádovce in polovico Manásejevega rodu

Then Joshua calleth for the Reubenite, and for the Gadite, and for the half of the tribe of Manasseh,

2 ter jim rekel: »Držali ste se vsega, kar vam je Gospodov služabnik Mojzes zapovedal in moj glas ste ubogali v vsem, kar sem vam zapovedal.

and saith unto them, 'Ye — ye have kept the whole of that which Moses, servant of Jehovah, commanded you, and ye hearken to my voice, to all that I have commanded you;

3 Te mnoge dni do tega dne niste zapustili svojih bratov, temveč ste skrbeli za zapoved Gospoda, svojega Boga.

ye have not left your brethren these many days unto this day, and have kept the charge — the command of Jehovah your God.

4 Sedaj je Gospod, vaš Bog, dal počitek vašim bratom, kakor jim je obljubil, zato se sedaj vrnite in se odpravite v svoje šotore in v deželo svoje posesti, ki vam jo je dal Gospodov služabnik Mojzes na drugi strani Jordana.

'And, now, Jehovah your God hath given rest to your brethren, as He spake to them; and now, turn ye, and go for yourselves to your tents, unto the land of your possession, which Moses, servant of Jehovah, hath given to you beyond the Jordan.

5 Toda marljivo pazite, da izpolnite zapoved in postavo, ki vam jo je zapovedal Gospodov služabnik Mojzes, da ljubite Gospoda, svojega Boga in da hodite po vseh njegovih poteh in se držite njegovih zapovedi in da se mu trdno pridružite in mu služite z vsem svojim srcem in z vso svojo dušo.«

Only, be very watchful to do the command and the law which Moses, servant of Jehovah, commanded you, to love Jehovah your God, and to walk in all His ways, and to keep His commands, and to cleave to Him, and to serve Him, with all your heart, and with all your soul.'

6 Tako jih je Józue blagoslovil in jih poslal proč; in odšli so k svojim šotorom.

And Joshua blesseth them, and sendeth them away, and they go unto their tents.

7 Torej eni polovici Manásejevega rodu je Mojzes dal posest v Bašánu, toda drugi njegovi polovici je Józue dal [posest] med njihovimi brati na tej strani Jordana proti zahodu. Ko je Józue tudi njih poslal proč, v njihove šotore, tedaj jih je blagoslovil

And to the half of the tribe of Manasseh hath Moses given, in Bashan, and to its [other] half hath Joshua given with their brethren beyond the Jordan westward; and also when Joshua hath sent them away unto their tents, then he doth bless them,

8 in jim govoril, rekoč: »V svoje šotore se vrnite z mnogimi bogastvi in z zelo veliko živine, s srebrom in z zlatom, z bronom in z železom in z zelo mnogimi oblačili. Plen svojih sovražnikov razdelite s svojimi brati.«

and speak unto them, saying, 'With great riches turn ye back unto your tents, and with very much cattle, with silver, and with gold, and with brass, and with iron, and with very much raiment; divide the spoil of your enemies with your brethren.'

9 Rubenovi otroci in Gadovi otroci in polovica Manásejevega rodu se je vrnila in odpotovala od Izraelovih otrok iz Šila, ki je v kánaanski deželi, da gredo v deželo Gileád, k zemlji njihove posesti, ki so jo vzeli v last, glede na Gospodovo besedo, po Mojzesovi roki.

And the sons of Reuben, and the sons of Gad, and the half of the tribe of Manasseh, turn back and go from the sons of Israel out of Shiloh, which [is] in the land of Canaan, to go unto the land of Gilead, unto the land of their possession, in which they have possession, according to the command of Jehovah, by the hand of Moses;

10 Ko so prišli k mejam Jordana, ki so v kánaanski deželi, so Rubenovi otroci in Gadovi otroci in polovica Manásejevega rodu tam zgradili oltar pri Jordanu, na pogled velik oltar.

and they come in unto the districts of the Jordan, which [are] in the land of Canaan, and the sons of Reuben, and the sons of Gad, and the half of the tribe of Manasseh, build there an altar by the Jordan — a great altar for appearance.

11 Izraelovi otroci so slišali reči: »Glejte, Rubenovi otroci, Gadovi otroci in polovica Manásejevega rodu so zgradili oltar nasproti kánaanski deželi, na mejah Jordana, ob prehodu Izraelovih otrok.«

And the sons of Israel hear, saying, 'Lo, the sons of Reuben, and the sons of Gad, and the half of the tribe of Manasseh, have built the altar over-against the land of Canaan, on the districts of the Jordan, at the passage of the sons of Israel.'

12 Ko so Izraelovi otroci slišali o tem, se je celotna skupnost Izraelovih otrok skupaj zbrala pri Šilu, da gredo gor, da se vojskujejo proti njim.

And the sons of Israel hear, and all the company of the sons of Israel is assembled at Shiloh, to go up against them to war;

13 Izraelovi otroci so k Rubenovim otrokom, h Gadovim otrokom in k polovici Manásejevega rodu v deželo Gileád poslali Pinhása, sina duhovnika Eleazarja

and the sons of Israel send unto the sons of Reuben, and unto the sons of Gad, and unto the half of the tribe of Manasseh — unto the land of Gilead — Phinehas son of Eleazar the priest,

14 in z njim deset princev, iz vsake vodilne hiše princa, po vseh Izraelovih rodovih in vsak je bil poglavar svoje očetovske hiše med tisočerimi Izraelovimi.

and ten princes with him, one prince, one prince, for a house of a father, for all the tribes of Israel, and each of them a head of a house of their fathers, for the thousands of Israel.

15 Prišli so k Rubenovim otrokom, h Gadovim otrokom in k polovici Manásejevega rodu, v deželo Gileád in z njimi govorili, rekoč:

And they come in unto the sons of Reuben, and unto the sons of Gad, and unto the half of the tribe of Manasseh, unto the land of Gilead, and speak with them, saying,

16 »Tako govori celotna Gospodova skupnost: ›Kakšen prekršek je to, kar ste zagrešili zoper Izraelovega Boga, da se ta dan odvračate od sledenja Gospodu, v tem, da ste si zgradili oltar, da bi se ta dan lahko uprli zoper Gospoda?

'Thus said all the company of Jehovah, What [is] this trespass which ye have trespassed against the God of Israel, to turn back to-day from after Jehovah, by your building for you an altar, for your rebelling to-day against Jehovah?

17 Mar je krivičnost Peórja premajhna za nas, od katere do tega dne nismo očiščeni, čeprav je bila nadloga v Gospodovi skupnosti,

Is the iniquity of Peor little to us, from which we have not been cleansed till this day — and the plague is in the company of Jehovah,

18 temveč da ste se ta dan morali odvrniti od sledenja Gospodu? Zgodilo se bo, glede na to, da ste se ta dan uprli zoper Gospoda, da bo jutri ogorčen nad celotno Izraelovo skupnostjo.

that ye turn back to-day from after Jehovah? and it hath been — ye rebel to-day against Jehovah — and to-morrow against all the company of Israel He is wroth.

19 Vendar če je dežela vaše posesti nečista, potem prečkajte v deželo Gospodove posesti, v kateri prebiva Gospodovo šotorsko svetišče in vzemite posest med nami, toda ne uprite se zoper Gospoda niti se ne uprite zoper nas v tem, da si gradite oltar poleg oltarja Gospoda, našega Boga.

'And surely, if the land of your possession is unclean, pass over for you unto the land of the possession of Jehovah, where the tabernacle of Jehovah hath tabernacled, and have possession in our midst; and against Jehovah rebel not, and against us rebel not, by your building for you an altar, besides the altar of Jehovah our God.

20 Mar ni Zerahov sin Ahán zagrešil prekršek v prekleti stvari in je bes padel na vso Izraelovo skupnost? In ta mož v svoji krivičnosti ni umrl sam.‹«

Did not Achan son of Zerah commit a trespass in the devoted thing, and on all the company of Israel there was wrath? and he alone expired not in his iniquity.'

21 Potem so Rubenovi otroci, Gadovi otroci in polovica Manásejevega rodu odgovorili in rekli poglavarjem tisočerih Izraelovih:

And the sons of Reuben, and the sons of Gad, and the half of the tribe of Manasseh, answer and speak with the heads of the thousands of Israel:

22 » Gospod, Bog bogov, Gospod, Bog bogov, on ve in Izrael bo vedel. Če je to v uporu ali če je v prestopku zoper Gospoda (ta dan nas ne reši),

'The God of gods — Jehovah, the God of gods — Jehovah, He is knowing, and Israel, he doth know, if in rebellion, and if in trespass against Jehovah (Thou dost not save us this day!)

23 da smo si zgradili oltar, da se obrnemo od sledenja Gospodu, ali če na njem darujemo žgalno daritev ali jedilno daritev ali če na njem žrtvujejo mirovne daritve, naj sam Gospod to zahteva

[we are] building for ourselves an altar to turn back from after Jehovah, and if to cause to go up on it burnt-offering and present, and if to make on it peace-offerings — Jehovah Himself doth require [it].

24 in če nismo tega raje storili zaradi strahu pred to stvarjo, rekoč: ›V času, ki pride, bodo vaši otroci lahko govorili našim otrokom, rekoč: ›Kaj imate z Gospodom, Izraelovim Bogom?

'And if not, from fear of [this] thing we have done it, saying, Hereafter your sons do speak to ours sons, saying, What to you and to Jehovah God of Israel?

25 Kajti Gospod je naredil Jordan za mejo med nami in vami, vi Rubenovi otroci in Gadovi otroci, vi nimate deleža v Gospodu.‹‹ Tako bodo vaši otroci naredili našim otrokom, da se prenehajo bati Gospoda.

for a border hath Jehovah put between us and you, O sons of Reuben, and sons of Gad — Jordan; ye have no portion in Jehovah — and your sons have caused our sons to cease, not to fear Jehovah.

26 Zato smo rekli: ›Pripravimo se, da si zgradimo oltar, ne za žgalno daritev niti za klavno daritev,

'And we say, Pray let us prepare for ourselves to build the altar — not for burnt-offering nor for sacrifice —

27 temveč, da bo ta lahko priča med nami in vami in našimi rodovi za nami, da bomo lahko pred njim opravljali Gospodovo službo s svojimi žgalnimi daritvami, svojimi klavnimi daritvami in s svojimi mirovnimi daritvami, ‹ da v času, ki pride, vaši otroci ne bodo mogli reči našim otrokom: ›Vi nimate deleža v Gospodu.‹

but a witness it [is] between us and you, and between our generations after us, to do the service of Jehovah before Him with our burnt-offerings, and with our sacrifices, and with our peace-offerings, and your sons do not say hereafter to our sons, Ye have no portion in Jehovah.

28 Zato smo rekli, da bo tako, ko bodo tako rekli nam ali našim rodovom, v času, ki pride, da bomo lahko ponovno rekli: ›Glejte vzorec Gospodovega oltarja, ki so ga naredili naši očetje, niti za žgalne daritve, niti za klavne daritve, temveč je ta priča med vami in nami.‹

'And we say, And it hath been, when they say [so] unto us, and unto our generations hereafter, that we have said, See the pattern of the altar of Jehovah, which our fathers made — not for burnt-offering nor for sacrifice — but a witness it [is] between us and you.

29 Bog ne daj, da bi se uprli zoper Gospoda in se ta dan obrnili od sledenja Gospodu, da zgradimo oltar za žgalne daritve, za jedilne daritve ali za klavne daritve, poleg oltarja Gospoda, našega Boga, ki je pred njegovim šotorskim svetiščem.«

'Far be it from us to rebel against Jehovah, and to turn back to-day from after Jehovah, to build an altar for burnt-offering, for present, and for sacrifice, apart from the altar of Jehovah our God, which [is] before His tabernacle.'

30 Ko so duhovnik Pinhás in princi skupnosti in poglavarji tisočerih Izraelovih, ki so bili z njim, slišali besede, ki so jih Rubenovi otroci, Gadovi otroci in Manásejevi otroci govorili, jim je to ugajalo.

And Phinehas the priest, and the princes of the company, and the heads of the thousands of Israel, who [are] with him, hear the words which the sons of Reuben, and the sons of Gad, and the sons of Manasseh have spoken, and it is good in their eyes.

31 In Pinhás, sin duhovnika Eleazarja, je rekel Rubenovim otrokom, Gadovim otrokom in Manásejevim otrokom: »Ta dan smo zaznali, da je med nami Gospod, zato ker tega prekrška niste zagrešili zoper Gospoda. Sedaj ste Izraelove otroke osvobodili iz Gospodove roke.«

And Phinehas son of Eleazar the priest saith unto the sons of Reuben, and unto the sons of Gad, and unto the sons of Manasseh, 'To-day we have known that Jehovah [is] in our midst, because ye have not committed against Jehovah this trespass — then ye have delivered the sons of Israel out of the hand of Jehovah.'

32 Pinhás, sin duhovnika Eleazarja in princi so se vrnili od Rubenovih otrok in od Gadovih otrok iz dežele Gileád v kánaansko deželo, k Izraelovim otrokom in jim ponovno prinesli besedo.

And Phinehas son of Eleazar the priest, and the princes, turn back from the sons of Reuben, and from the sons of Gad, out of the land of Gilead, unto the land of Canaan, unto the sons of Israel, and bring them back word;

33 Stvar je ugajala Izraelovim otrokom in Izraelovi otroci so blagoslovili Boga in niso nameravali iti gor zoper njih v bitko, da bi uničili deželo, v kateri so prebivali otroci Rubena in Gada.

and the thing is good in the eyes of the sons of Israel, and the sons of Israel bless God, and have not said to go up against them to war, to destroy the land which the sons of Reuben, and the sons of Gad, are dwelling in.

34 Rubenovi otroci in Gadovi otroci pa so oltar imenovali Ed, kajti ta bo priča med nami, da Gospod je Bog.

And the sons of Reuben and the sons of Gad proclaim concerning the altar, that 'it [is] a witness between us that Jehovah [is] God.'
