Numbers 11
1 The people were complaining in the ears of the LORD. When the LORD heard it, his anger burned; and the LORD’s fire burned among them, and consumed some of the outskirts of the camp.
I stade narod zlobno mrmljati u Jahvine uši. Kad to ču Jahve, planu gnjevom. Jahvin oganj izbi među njima i spali jedan kraj tabora.
2 The people cried to Moses; and Moses prayed to the LORD, and the fire abated.
Narod zavapi Mojsiju, a Mojsije se pomoli Jahvi i oganj se utiša.
3 The name of that place was called Taberah, because the LORD’s fire burned among them.
Ono se mjesto prozva Tabera, jer je Jahvin oganj ondje zaplamtio na njih.
4 The mixed multitude that was among them lusted exceedingly; and the children of Israel also wept again, and said, “Who will give us meat to eat?
Svjetinu koja se oko njih skupila obuzme pohlepa za jelom. Izraelci se opet upuste u jadikovanje govoreći: “Tko će nas nasititi mesom?
5 We remember the fish, which we ate in Egypt for nothing; the cucumbers, and the melons, and the leeks, and the onions, and the garlic;
Sjećamo se kako smo u Egiptu jeli badava ribe, krastavaca, dinje, prÓase, luka i češnjaka.
6 but now we have lost our appetite. There is nothing at all except this manna to look at.”
Sad nam život vene; nema ničega, osim mÓane, pred našim očima.”
7 The manna was like coriander seed, and it looked like bdellium.
MÓana je bila kao zrno korijandera i nalik na bdelij.
8 The people went around, gathered it, and ground it in mills, or beat it in mortars, and boiled it in pots, and made cakes of it. Its taste was like the taste of fresh oil.
Narod išao naokolo, skupljao je, a onda tro kamenom na kamenoj ploči ili stÓupao u stÓupi. Kuhao ju je u loncu i od nje pravio kolače. Okus joj bijaše kao okus kolača zgotovljena u ulju.
9 When the dew fell on the camp in the night, the manna fell on it.
Kad bi se noću spuštala rosa po taborištu, s njome bi se spustila i mÓana.
10 Moses heard the people weeping throughout their families, every man at the door of his tent; and the LORD’s anger burned greatly; and Moses was displeased.
Mojsije je slušao kako jadikuje narod u svojim obiteljima, svatko na ulazu u svoj šator. Gnjev Jahvin žestoko planu i Mojsije se ražalosti.
11 Moses said to the LORD, “Why have you treated your servant so badly? Why have not I found favor in your sight, that you lay the burden of all this people on me?
“Zašto zlostavljaš slugu svoga?” - upravi Mojsije riječ Jahvi. “Zašto nisam stekao milost u tvojim očima kad si na me uprtio teret svega ovog naroda?
12 Have I conceived all this people? Have I brought them out, that you should tell me, ‘Carry them in your bosom, as a nurse carries a nursing infant, to the land which you swore to their fathers’?
Zar je od mene potekao sav ovaj narod? Zar sam ga ja rodio, kad veliš: 'Nosi ga u svome krilu, kao što dojilja nosi dojenče, u zemlju što sam je pod zakletvom obećao njihovim očevima!'
13 Where could I get meat to give all these people? For they weep before me, saying, ‘Give us meat, that we may eat.’
Odakle meni meso da ga dam svemu ovom puku koji plače oko mene govoreći: 'Daj nam mesa da jedemo!'
14 I am not able to bear all this people alone, because it is too heavy for me.
Ja sam ne mogu nositi sav ovaj narod. Preteško je to za me.
15 If you treat me this way, please kill me right now, if I have found favor in your sight; and do not let me see my wretchedness.”
Ako ćeš ovako sa mnom postupati, radije me ubij, ako sam stekao milost u tvojim očima, da više ne gledam svoga jada.”
16 The LORD said to Moses, “Gather to me seventy men of the elders of Israel, whom you know to be the elders of the people and officers over them; and bring them to the Tent of Meeting, that they may stand there with you.
Onda Jahve reče Mojsiju: “Skupi mi sedamdeset muževa između starješina izraelskih za koje znaš da su starješine narodu i njegovi nadglednici. Dovedi ih u Šator sastanka pa neka ondje zauzmu svoja mjesta s tobom.
17 I will come down and talk with you there. I will take of the Spirit which is on you, and will put it on them; and they shall bear the burden of the people with you, that you do not bear it yourself alone.
Ja ću sići i ondje s tobom govoriti; uzet ću nešto duha koji je na tebi i stavit ću ga na njih. Tako će s tobom nositi teret naroda da ga ne nosiš sam.
18 “Say to the people, ‘Sanctify yourselves in preparation for tomorrow, and you will eat meat; for you have wept in the ears of the LORD, saying, “Who will give us meat to eat? For it was well with us in Egypt.” Therefore the LORD will give you meat, and you will eat.
Nadalje, kaži narodu: Za sutra se posvetite i jest ćete mesa, jer ste mrmljali u uši Jahvi govoreći: 'Tko će nas nasititi mesa? U Egiptu nam je bilo dobro.' Jahve će vam, dakle, dati mesa da jedete.
19 You will not eat just one day, or two days, or five days, or ten days, or twenty days,
Nećete ga jesti samo jedan dan, ni dva dana, ni pet dana, ni deset dana, ni dvadeset dana,
20 but a whole month, until it comes out at your nostrils, and it is loathsome to you; because you have rejected the LORD who is among you, and have wept before him, saying, “Why did we come out of Egypt?”’”
nego cio mjesec, sve dok vam ne izbije na nosnice i ne ogadi vam se, jer ste odbacili Jahvu koji je među vama mrmljajući pred njim riječima: 'Zašto smo uopće odlazili iz Egipta!'”
21 Moses said, “The people, among whom I am, are six hundred thousand men on foot; and you have said, ‘I will give them meat, that they may eat a whole month.’
“Naroda u kojemu se nalazim”, odgovori Mojsije, “ima šest stotina tisuća pješaka, a ti kažeš: 'Mesa ću im dati da jedu mjesec dana.'
22 Shall flocks and herds be slaughtered for them, to be sufficient for them? Shall all the fish of the sea be gathered together for them, to be sufficient for them?”
Može li im se naklati sitne i krupne stoke da im dostane? Mogu li im se sve ribe iz mora zgrnuti da im bude dosta?”
23 The LORD said to Moses, “Has the LORD’s hand grown short? Now you will see whether my word will happen to you or not.”
Jahve reče Mojsiju: “Zar je ruka Jahvina tako kratka? Sad ćeš vidjeti hoće li se obistiniti moja riječ ili neće.”
24 Moses went out, and told the people the LORD’s words; and he gathered seventy men of the elders of the people, and set them around the Tent.
Mojsije izađe i kaza narodu Jahvine riječi. Onda skupi sedamdeset muževa između narodnih starješina i smjesti ih oko Šatora.
25 The LORD came down in the cloud, and spoke to him, and took of the Spirit that was on him, and put it on the seventy elders. When the Spirit rested on them, they prophesied, but they did so no more.
Jahve siđe u oblaku i poče s njim govoriti. Zatim uze od duha koji bijaše na njemu i stavi na onu sedamdesetoricu starješina. Kad duh počinu na njima, počeše prorokovati, ali to više nikad ne učiniše.
26 But two men remained in the camp. The name of one was Eldad, and the name of the other Medad; and the Spirit rested on them. They were of those who were written, but had not gone out to the Tent; and they prophesied in the camp.
Dvojica ostadoše u taboru. Jednome je bilo ime Eldad, a drugome Medad. Duh je i na njima počinuo - bili su i oni među upisanima, premda nisu došli u tabor - te počeše u taboru prorokovati.
27 A young man ran, and told Moses, and said, “Eldad and Medad are prophesying in the camp!”
Neki mladić otrča te javi Mojsiju: “Eldad i Medad”, reče, “prorokuju u taboru!”
28 Joshua the son of Nun, the servant of Moses, one of his chosen men, answered, “My lord Moses, forbid them!”
Jošua, sin Nunov, koji je posluživao Mojsija od svoje mladosti, prozbori i reče: “Mojsije, gospodaru moj, ušutkaj ih!”
29 Moses said to him, “Are you jealous for my sake? I wish that all the LORD’s people were prophets, that the LORD would put his Spirit on them!”
Mojsije mu odgovori: “Zar si zavidan zbog mene! Oh, kad bi sav narod Jahvin postao prorok! Kad bi Jahve na njih izlio svoga duha!”
30 Moses went into the camp, he and the elders of Israel.
Potom se Mojsije i starješine izraelske vrate u tabor.
31 A wind from the LORD went out and brought quails from the sea, and let them fall by the camp, about a day’s journey on this side, and a day’s journey on the other side, around the camp, and about two cubits above the surface of the earth.
Tada Jahve zapovjedi te zapuhnu vjetar i nanese prepelice od mora i sasu ih na tabor, na dan hoda i s ove i s one strane tabora, na dva lakta iznad zemlje.
32 The people rose up all that day, and all of that night, and all the next day, and gathered the quails. He who gathered least gathered ten homers; and they spread them all out for themselves around the camp.
Narod je ustao te je toga cijeloga dana, svu noć i cio sutrašnji dan skupljao prepelice. Onaj tko ih je skupio najmanje imao je deset homera.
33 While the meat was still between their teeth, before it was chewed, the LORD’s anger burned against the people, and the LORD struck the people with a very great plague.
Zatim ih razastriješe oko tabora. Meso još bijaše među njihovim zubima - još ga nisu prožvakali - kadli planu Jahvin gnjev protiv naroda: Jahve udari narod strašnim pomorom.
34 The name of that place was called Kibroth Hattaavah, because there they buried the people who lusted.
Ono se mjesto prozva Kibrot Hataava, jer su ondje pokopali one koji se bijahu polakomili.
35 From Kibroth Hattaavah the people traveled to Hazeroth; and they stayed at Hazeroth.
Iz Kibrot Hataave narod se zaputi u Haserot. I utabori se u Haserotu.
