1 Chronicles 5
1 Reuben was the oldest son of Jacob. Therefore, he should have received the special rights/privileges that belonged to firstborn sons. But he had sex with his father’s slave wife, so [his father] gave the rights if a firstborn son to the sons of Reubers younger brother Joseph. And in the family records, Reuben is not mentioned first, like the firstborn sons always are.
Sinovi Izraelova prvenca Rubena. On je doista bio prvenac; ali kad je oskvrnuo očevu postelju, njegovo je pravo prvorodstva bilo dano sinovima Izraelova sina Josipa, ali im nije bilo upisano u rodovnik,
2 Although Judah became more influential than his brothers, and a ruler of the tribe descended from him, Joseph’s family received the rights that belonged to firstborn sons.
jer je Juda nadvladao među braćom, a od njega se rodio knez. Ipak je pravo prvorodstva pripalo Josipu.
3 But Reuben was Jacob’s oldest son. Reuben’s sons were Hanoch, Pallu, Hezron, and Carmi.
Sinovi Izraelova prvenca Rubena bili su Henok, Falu, Hesron i Karmi.
4 [Another descendant of Reuben was Joel]. Joel’s son was Shemaiah. Shemaiah’s son was Gog. Gog’s son was Shimei.
Joelovi sinovi: njegov sin Šemaja, njegov sin Gog, njegov sin Šimej,
5 Shimei’s son was Micah. Micah’s son was Reaiah. Reaiah’s son was Baal.
njegov sin Mika, njegov sin Reaja, njegov sin Baal,
6 Baal’s son was Beerah. Beerah was a leader of the tribe/descendants of Reuben. But Tiglath-Pileser the king of Assyria captured him and took him to Assyria.
njegov sin Beera, koga je odveo u sužanjstvo asirski kralj Tiglat Pileser; on je bio poglavar Rubenova plemena.
7 The names of these clans are listed here according to what is written in their family records. The first [name written was] Jeiel. Then Zechariah,
Njegovoj braći, po obiteljima, kad su se zapisali u plemenski rodovnik po naraštajima, bio je poglavar Jeiel, Zaharija,
8 and then Bela. Bela was the son of Azaz, and Azaz was the son of Shema, and Shema was the son of Joel. Reuben’s clan was very large. Some of them lived near Aroer [city] as far [north] as Nebo [town] and Baal-Meon [city].
Bela, sin Azazov, sin Šemin, sin Joelov. On je živio u Aroeru i do Neba i Baal Meona.
9 Some of them lived further east, as far as the edge of the desert [south of] the Euphrates River. [They went there] because they had a huge amount of cattle, [with the result that there was not enough pastureland for them] in [the] Gilead [region].
Prema istoku njegova se zemlja prostirala do ulaza u pustinju, od rijeke Eufrata, jer mu se stoka umnožila u gileadskoj zemlji.
10 When Saul was king [of Israel], Bela’s clan fought against the descendants of Hagar and defeated them. After that, Bela’s clan lived in the tents that the descendants of Hagar had lived in previously, in all the area east of [the] Gilead [region].
Za Šaulovih vremena vojevali su s Hagrijcima koji su izginuli od njihove ruke; tako su se naselili u njihove šatore po svemu istočnom području od Gileada.
11 The tribe of Gad lived near the tribe of Reuben; they lived in [the] Bashan [region], all the way [east] to Salecah [town].
Gadovi su sinovi živjeli blizu njih u bašanskoj zemlji do Salke.
12 Joel was their chief; Shapham was his assistant; other leaders were Janai and Shaphat.
Poglavar je bio Joel, a drugi Šafan, pa Janaj i Šafat u Bašanu.
13 Other members of the tribe belonged to seven clans, whose leaders were Michael, Meshullam, Sheba, Jorai, Jacan, Zia, and Eber.
Njihova su braća po svojim rodovima bila: Mihael, Mešulam, Šeba, Joraj, Jakan, Zija, Eber, sedmorica.
14 They were descendants of Abihail. Abihail was Huri’s son. Huri was Jaroah’s son. Jaroah was Gilead’s son. Gilead was Michael’s son. Michael was Jeshishai’s son. Jeshishai was Jahdo’s son. Jahdo was the son of Buz.
To su bili sinovi Abihajila, sina Hurija, sina Jaroaha, sina Gileada, sina Mihaela, sina Ješišaja, sina Jahdona, sina Buza.
15 Ahi was Abdiel’s son. Abdiel was Guni’s son. Ahi was the leader of their clan.
Ahi, sin Abdiela, Gunijeva sina, bio je poglavar njihova roda.
16 The descendants of Gad lived in the towns in Gilead and Bashan regions, and on all the pastureland on [the] Sharon [plain].
Živjeli su u Gileadu i u njihovim zaseocima te po svim šaronskim pašnjacima do njihovih krajeva.
17 All of those names were written in the records of the clans of Gad during the time that Jotham was the king of Judah and Jeroboam was the king of Israel.
Svi su bili zapisani u plemenski rodovnik za vremena judejskoga kralja Jotama i za vremena izraelskoga kralja Jeroboama.
18 There were 44,760 soldiers from the tribes of Reuben and Gad and [the eastern] half of the tribe of Manasseh. They all carried shields and swords and bows [and arrows]. They [were all trained to] fight well in battles.
Rubenovih i Gadovih sinova, i polovine Manašeova plemena, hrabrih junaka koji su nosili štit i mač te zapinjali luk i bili vješti boju, bijaše četrdeset tisuća sedam stotina i šezdeset vojnika.
19 They attacked the descendants of Hagar and the people of Jetur, Naphish, and Nodab [cities].
Ratovali su protiv Hagrijaca, Iturejaca, Nafišejaca i Nodabejaca.
20 The men from those three tribes prayed to God during the battles, requesting him to help them. So he helped them, because they trusted in him. He enabled them to defeat [IDM] the descendants of Hagar and all those who were helping them.
U boju su zavapili k Bogu i on ih je uslišao jer su se pouzdali u nj: potpomognuti su protiv neprijatelja te su im predani u ruke Hagrijci sa svim njihovim saveznicima.
21 They took the animals that belonged to the descendants of Hagar: They took 50,000 camels, 250,000 sheep, and 2,000 donkeys. They also captured 100,000 people.
Zaplijenili su njihovu stoku - pedeset tisuća deva, dvije stotine i pedeset tisuća ovaca i koza i dvije tisuće magaraca - i odveli u ropstvo sto tisuća ljudi.
22 But many descendants of Hagar were killed because God helped the people of the tribes of Reuben, Gad, and Manasseh. After that, those three tribes lived in that area until [the army of] Babylonia [captured them and] took them away to Babylon.
Pobijenih je mnogo palo, jer je taj boj bio od Boga; onda se naseliše na njihovo mjesto do sužanjstva.
23 There were many people who belonged to the eastern half of the tribe of Manasseh. They lived in [the] Bashan [region east of the Jordan River], as far [north] as Baal-Hermon, Senir, and Hermon Mountain.
Sinovi polovine Manašeova plemena nastanili su se u toj zemlji od Bašana do Baal Hermona i Šenira i do Hermonske gore. I bijahu se umnožili.
24 Their clan leaders were Epher, Ishi, Eliel, Azriel, Jeremiah, Hodaviah, and Jahdiel. They were all strong, brave, and famous soldiers, and leaders of their clans.
Ovo su bili poglavari njihovih rodova: Efer, Jiši, Eliel, Azriel, Jeremija, Hodavja i Jahdiel, hrabri junaci i ugledni muževi: poglavari u svojim rodovima.
25 But they sinned against God, the one whom their ancestors had worshiped. They began to worship the gods/idols that the people of that region had worshiped, the people whom God had enabled them to destroy!
Ali kad su se iznevjerili Bogu svojih otaca i odali se preljubu s bogovima naroda one zemlje koje je Bog iskorijenio pred njima,
26 So the God whom the Israelis [worshiped] caused Pul, the king of Assyria, to conquer those tribes. Pul’s other name was Tiglath-Pileser. His [army] captured the people of the tribes of Reuben, Gad, and the eastern half of the tribe of Manasseh, and took them to [various places in Assyria]: Halah, Habor, Hara and near the Gozan River. [They have lived in those places from that time] to the present time.
probudio je Izraelov Bog neprijateljstvo asirskoga kralja Pula i neprijateljstvo asirskoga kralja Tiglat Pilesera. Oni su odveli u sužanjstvo Rubenovo i Gadovo pleme i polovinu Manašeova plemena. Doveli su ih u Helah, Habor i Haru i na Gozansku rijeku do današnjega dana.
