Joshua 24

1 Then Joshua got all the tribes of Israel together at Shechem; and he sent for the responsible men of Israel and their chiefs and their judges and their overseers; and they took their place before God.

Potom sabra Isus sva plemena Izrailjeva u Sihem, i sazva starješine Izrailjeve i poglavare njegove i sudije njegove i upravitelje njegove, i stadoše pred Bogom.

2 And Joshua said to all the people, These are the words of the Lord, the God of Israel: In the past your fathers, Terah, the father of Abraham, and the father of Nahor, were living on the other side of the River: and they were worshipping other gods.

I reèe Isus svemu narodu: ovako veli Gospod Bog Izrailjev: s onu stranu rijeke živješe negda oci vaši, Tara otac Avramov i otac Nahorov, i služiše drugim bogovima.

3 And I took your father Abraham from the other side of the River, guiding him through all the land of Canaan; I made his offspring great in number, and gave him Isaac.

Ali uzeh oca vašega Avrama ispreko rijeke i provedoh ga kroz svu zemlju Hanansku i umnožih sjeme njegovo davši mu Isaka.

4 And to Isaac I gave Jacob and Esau: to Esau I gave Mount Seir, as his heritage; but Jacob and his children went down to Egypt.

A Isaku dadoh Jakova i Isava, i dadoh Isavu goru Sir da je njegova; a Jakov i sinovi njegovi sidoše u Misir.

5 And I sent Moses and Aaron, troubling Egypt by all the signs I did among them: and after that I took you out.

I poslah Mojsija i Arona, i muèih Misir, kako uèinih usred njega, potom vas izvedoh.

6 I took your fathers out of Egypt: and you came to the Red Sea; and the Egyptians came after your fathers to the Red Sea, with their war-carriages and their horsemen.

A kad izvedoh iz Misira oce vaše, doðoše na more, a Misirci gnaše oce vaše s kolima i s konjicima do Crvenoga Mora.

7 And at their cry, the Lord made it dark between you and the Egyptians, and made the sea go over them, covering them with its waters; your eyes have seen what I did in Egypt: then for a long time you were living in the waste land.

Tada zavapiše ka Gospodu, i postavih tamu izmeðu vas i Misiraca, i navedoh na njih more koje ih zatrpa, i oèi vaše vidješe šta uèinih od Misiraca; potom ostaste u pustinji dugo vremena.

8 And I took you into the lands of the Amorites on the other side of Jordan; and they made war on you, and I gave them into your hands and you took their land; and I sent destruction on them before you.

Iza toga dovedoh vas u zemlju Amoreja koji življahu s onu stranu Jordana; i oni se pobiše s vama, ali ih dadoh vama u ruke, te naslijediste zemlju njihovu, i istrijebih ih ispred vas.

9 Then Balak, the son of Zippor, king of Moab, went up to war against Israel; and he sent for Balaam, the son of Beor, to put a curse on you:

A Valak sin Seforov car Moavski podiže se da se bije s Izrailjem, i posla te dozva Valama sina Veorova da vas prokune.

10 But I did not give ear to Balaam; and so he went on blessing you; and I kept you safe from him.

Ali ne htjeh poslušati Valama, te vas on još blagoslovi, i izbavih vas iz ruke njegove.

11 Then you went over Jordan and came to Jericho: and the men of Jericho made war on you, the Amorites and the Perizzites and the Canaanites and the Hittites and the Girgashites and the Hivites and the Jebusites: and I gave them up into your hands.

Potom prijeðoste preko Jordana, i doðoste pod Jerihon, i biše se s vama Jerihonjani, Amoreji i Ferezeji i Hananeji i Heteji i Gergeseji i Jeveji i Jevuseji; i dadoh ih vama u ruke.

12 And I sent the hornet before you, driving out the two kings of the Amorites before you, not with your sword and your bow.

I poslah pred vama stršljene, koji ih izagnaše ispred vas, dva cara Amorejska; ne maèem tvojim ni lukom tvojim.

13 And I gave you a land on which you had done no work, and towns not of your building, and you are now living in them; and your food comes from vine-gardens and olive-gardens not of your planting.

I dadoh vam zemlju, koje ne radiste, i gradove, kojih ne gradiste, i u njima živite; iz vinograda i iz maslinika, kojih nijeste sadili, jedete.

14 So now, go in fear of the Lord, and be his servants with true hearts: put away the gods worshipped by your fathers across the River and in Egypt, and be servants of the Lord.

Zato sada bojte se Gospoda i služite mu vjerno i istinito; i povrzite bogove, kojima su služili oci vaši s onu stranu rijeke i u Misiru, pa služite Gospodu.

15 And if it seems evil to you to be the servants of the Lord, make the decision this day whose servants you will be: of the gods whose servants your fathers were across the River, or of the gods of the Amorites in whose land you are living: but I and my house will be the servants of the Lord.

Ako li vam nije drago služiti Gospodu, izberite sebi danas kome æete služiti: ili bogove kojima su služili oci vaši s onu stranu rijeke, ili bogove Amoreja u kojih zemlji živite; a ja i dom moj služiæemo Gospodu.

16 Then the people in answer said, Never will we give up the Lord to be the servants of other gods;

A narod odgovori i reèe: ne daj Bože da ostavimo Gospoda da služimo drugim bogovima.

17 For it is the Lord our God who has taken us and our fathers out of the land of Egypt, out of the prison-house, and who did all those great signs before our eyes, and kept us safe on all our journeys, and among all the peoples through whom we went:

Jer Gospod Bog naš, on je izveo nas i oce naše iz zemlje Misirske, iz doma ropskoga, i on je uèinio pred našim oèima one znake velike, i èuvao nas cijelijem putem kojim idosmo, i po svijem narodima kroz koje proðosmo.

18 And the Lord sent out from before us all the peoples, the Amorites living in the land: so we will be the servants of the Lord, for he is our God.

I Gospod je istjerao ispred nas sve narode i Amoreje, koji življahu u ovoj zemlji; i mi æemo služiti Gospodu, jer je Bog naš.

19 And Joshua said to the people, You are not able to be the servants of the Lord, for he is a holy God, a God who will not let his honour be given to another: he will have no mercy on your wrongdoing or your sins.

A Isus reèe narodu: ne možete služiti Gospodu, jer je svet Bog, Bog revnitelj, neæe podnositi vaše nevjere i vaših grijeha.

20 If you are turned away from the Lord and become the servants of strange gods, then turning against you he will do you evil, cutting you off, after he has done you good.

Kad ostavite Gospoda i stanete služiti tuðim bogovima, okrenuæe se i zlo æe vam uèiniti, i istrijebiæe vas, pošto vam je dobro èinio.

21 And the people said to Joshua, No! But we will be the servants of the Lord.

A narod reèe Isusu: ne, nego æemo Gospodu služiti.

22 And Joshua said to the people, You are witnesses against yourselves that you have made the decision to be the servants of the Lord. And they said, We are witnesses.

A Isus reèe narodu: sami ste sebi svjedoci da ste izabrali sebi Gospoda da mu služite. I oni rekoše: svjedoci smo.

23 Then, he said, put away the strange gods among you, turning your hearts to the Lord, the God of Israel.

Povrzite dakle bogove tuðe što su meðu vama, i privijte srce svoje ka Gospodu Bogu Izrailjevu.

24 And the people said to Joshua, We will be the servants of the Lord our God, and we will give ear to his voice.

A narod reèe Isusu: Gospodu Bogu svojemu služiæemo i glas njegov slušaæemo.

25 So Joshua made an agreement with the people that day, and gave them a rule and a law in Shechem.

Tako uèini Isus zavjet s narodom onaj dan i postavi im uredbe i zakone u Sihemu.

26 And Joshua put these words on record, writing them in the book of the law of God; and he took a great stone, and put it up there under the oak-tree which was in the holy place of the Lord.

I zapisa Isus ove rijeèi u knjigu zakona Božijega; i uzevši kamen velik podiže ga ondje pod hrastom koji bijaše kod svetinje Gospodnje.

27 And Joshua said to all the people, See now, this stone is to be a witness against us; for all the words of the Lord have been said to us in its hearing: so it will be a witness against you if you are false to the Lord your God.

I reèe Isus svemu narodu: evo, kamen ovaj neka vam bude svjedoèanstvo; jer je èuo sve rijeèi Gospodnje, koje nam je govorio; i neka vam bude svjedoèanstvo da ne biste slagali Bogu svojemu.

28 Then Joshua let the people go away, every man to his heritage.

Potom raspusti Isus narod, svakoga na njegovo našljedstvo.

29 Now after these things, the death of Joshua, the son of Nun, the servant of the Lord, took place, he being then a hundred and ten years old.

A poslije ovijeh stvari umrije Isus sin Navin sluga Gospodnji, kad mu bijaše sto i deset godina.

30 And they put his body in the earth in the land of his heritage in Timnath-serah, in the hill-country of Ephraim, to the north of Mount Gaash.

I pogreboše ga u meðama našljedstva njegova u Tamnat-Sarahu, koji je u gori Jefremovoj sa sjevera gori Gasu.

31 And Israel was true to the Lord all the days of Joshua, and all the days of the older men who were still living after Joshua's death, and had seen what the Lord had done for Israel.

I služi Izrailj Gospodu svega vijeka Isusova i svega vijeka starješina, koje dugo živješe iza Isusa i koje znahu sva djela Gospodnja, koja uèini Izrailju.

32 And the bones of Joseph, which the children of Israel had taken up from Egypt, they put in the earth in Shechem, in the property which Jacob had got from the sons of Hamor, the father of Shechem, for a hundred shekels: and they became the heritage of the children of Joseph.

I kosti Josifove, koje donesoše sinovi Izrailjevi iz Misira, pogreboše u Sihemu, u dijelu polja koje je kupio Jakov od sinova Emora oca Sihemova za sto novaca; i biše u sinova Josifovijeh u našljedstvu njihovu.

33 Then the death of Eleazar, the son of Aaron, took place; and his body was put in the earth in the hill of Phinehas his son, which had been given to him in the hill-country of Ephraim.

I Eleazar sin Aronov umrije, i pogreboše ga na brdu Finesa sina njegova, koje mu bješe dano u gori Jefremovoj.
