Joshua 22
1 Joshua then summoned the leaders of the tribes of Reuben, Gad, and half of the tribe of Manasseh.
Tada sazva Isus sinove Ruvimove i sinove Gadove i polovinu plemena Manasijina,
2 He said to them, “You have done everything that Moses, who served Yahweh [well], told you to do. You have also done what I told you to do.
I reèe im: vi držaste sve što vam je zapovjedio Mojsije sluga Gospodnji, i slušaste glas moj u svemu što sam vam zapovijedao.
3 For a long time you have helped the other tribes [to defeat their enemies]. You have obeyed everything that Yahweh your God commanded you to do.
Ne ostaviste braæe svoje dugo vremena, do ovoga dana, i dobro èuvaste zapovijest Gospoda Boga svojega.
4 He promised to give peace to us Israelis, and he has done what he promised. So now you may go back to your homes, to the land that Moses gave to you, on the east side of the Jordan [River].
A sada Gospod je Bog vaš smirio braæu vašu, kako im je rekao; sada dakle vratite se i idite u šatore svoje u zemlju našljedstva svojega, koju vam je dao Mojsije sluga Gospodnji s onu stranu Jordana.
5 Moses also commanded you to love Yahweh your God and to obey his commands, and to continue to worship him and serve him by everything that you think and everything that you do.”
Samo pazite dobro da vršite zapovijest i zakon, što vam je zapovjedio Mojsije sluga Gospodnji, da ljubite Gospoda Boga svojega i da hodite svijem putovima njegovijem, i èuvate zapovijesti njegove i držite ih se, i da mu služite svijem srcem svojim i svom dušom svojom.
6 Then Joshua blessed them and said goodbye to them, and they [prepared to] leave and return to their homes [on the east side of the Jordan River].
I blagoslovi ih Isus, i otpusti ih da idu u svoje šatore.
7 Moses had given the Bashan region to half the tribe of Manasseh, and land on the west side of the Jordan [River] to the other half of the tribe. Before they left, he [asked God to] bless them.
A polovini plemena Manasijina bješe dao Mojsije našljedstvo u Vasanu, a drugoj polovini dade Isus s braæom njihovom s ovu stranu Jordana k zapadu. I otpuštajuæi ih Isus u šatore njihove blagoslovi ih,
8 He said, “Go back to your homes and to all the things that you have taken from your enemies—the many animals and silver and gold and [things made of] bronze and iron, and many beautiful clothes. But you should share some of those things with other people of your tribe.”
I reèe im govoreæi: s velikim blagom vraæate se u šatore svoje, sa stokom vrlo mnogom; sa srebrom i zlatom i mjeðu i gvožðem i odijelom vrlo mnogim; podijelite plijen od neprijatelja svojih s braæom svojom.
9 So the people of the tribes of Reuben, Gad, and half the tribe of Manasseh left the other Israelis at Shiloh in Canaan land, to return to their homes in the Gilead region. That was the area that belonged to them. It had been allotted to them by Moses as Yahweh had commanded.
I vrativši se sinovi Ruvimovi i sinovi Gadovi i polovina plemena Manasijina otidoše od sinova Izrailjevijeh iz Siloma, koji je u zemlji Hananskoj, iduæi u zemlju Galadsku, u zemlju našljedstva svojega, koju naslijediše, kako bješe Gospod zapovjedio preko Mojsija.
10 The people from those three tribes arrived near the western side of the Jordan River, at a town called Geliloth. There they built a large altar. [Then they crossed the Jordan River to the Gilead region].
A kad doðoše na meðu Jordansku u zemlji Hananskoj, naèiniše sinovi Ruvimovi i sinovi Gadovi i polovina plemena Manasijina oltar ondje na Jordanu, oltar velik i naoèit.
11 But the other Israelis who were still at Shiloh heard about the altar that those men had built.
I èuše sinovi Izrailjevi gdje se govori: gle, sinovi Ruvimovi i sinovi Gadovi i polovina plemena Manasijina naèiniše oltar prema zemlji Hananskoj na meði Jordanskoj, pokraj sinova Izrailjevijeh.
12 They became very angry with the men of those tribes, so they decided to fight them.
A kad èuše sinovi Izrailjevi, skupi se sav zbor sinova Izrailjevijeh u Silom da idu da se biju s njima.
13 The Israelis sent Phinehas, who was the son of Eleazar the Supreme Priest, to [talk with] the people of those three tribes.
I poslaše sinovi Izrailjevi k sinovima Ruvimovijem i sinovima Gadovijem i polovini plemena Manasijina u zemlju Galadsku Finesa sina Eleazara sveštenika,
14 They also sent one leader from each of the ten tribes that were still at Shiloh. Each of them was a leader of his clan.
I s njim deset knezova, po jednoga kneza od doma otaèkoga od svijeh plemena Izrailjevijeh, a svaki ih bješe poglavar u domu otaca svojih u tisuæama Izrailjevijem.
15 Those leaders went to the Gilead region to talk to the people of the tribes of Reuben, Gad, and half the tribe of Manasseh. They said,
A oni doðoše k sinovima Ruvimovijem i sinovima Gadovijem i polovini plemena Manasijina u zemlju Galadsku, i rekoše im govoreæi:
16 “All the other Israelis are asking, ‘Why have you rebelled against the God whom we Israelis [worship] by building an altar for yourselves?
Ovako veli sav zbor Gospodnji: kakav je to grijeh kojim se ogriješiste Bogu Izrailjevu odvrativši se danas od Gospoda naèinivši oltar da se odmetnete danas od Gospoda?
17 Have you forgotten what happened at Peor, [when some Israelis sinned by worshiping the god that the Moab people-group worship]? Many Israelis became very sick and died because of that sin, and we are still suffering because of their sin.
Malo li nam je grijeha Fegorova, od kojega se još nijesmo oèistili do danas i s kojega doðe pogibao na zbor Gospodnji,
18 Are you now turning away from obeying Yahweh and refusing to do what he wants? If you do not stop rebelling against Yahweh today, he will be angry with all of us Israelis tomorrow.’
Te se danas odvraæate od Gospoda, i odmeæete se danas od Gospoda, da se sjutra razgnjevi na sav zbor Izrailjev?
19 “If [you think that Yahweh considers] that your land here is not suitable for worshiping him, come back to our land where Yahweh’s Sacred Tent is. We can share our land with you. But do not rebel against Yahweh and against us by building another altar for Yahweh our God.
Ako je zemlja našljedstva vašega neèista, prijeðite u zemlju našljedstva Gospodnjega, u kojoj stoji šator Gospodnji, i uzmite našljedstvo meðu nama; samo se ne odmeæite od Gospoda i ne odmeæite se od nas gradeæi sebi oltar mimo oltar Gospoda Boga našega.
20 Do you remember what happened when Zerah’s son Achan refused to obey [Yahweh’s command to destroy everything in Jericho]? That one man disobeyed God’s command, but many [HYP] other Israelis were punished. Achan died because of his sin, but other Israelis also died.”
Nije li se Ahan sin Zarin ogriješio o stvari proklete, te doðe gnjev na sav zbor Izrailjev? i on ne pogibe sam za grijeh svoj.
21 The [leaders of the] tribes of Reuben, Gad, and half the tribe of Manasseh replied,
A sinovi Ruvimovi i sinovi Gadovi i polovina plemena Manasijina odgovoriše i rekoše poglavarima tisuæa Izrailjevih:
22 “Yahweh, the Almighty God, knows [why we did that], and we want you to know, too. If we have done something wrong [against Yahweh], you may kill us.
Gospod Bog nad bogovima, Gospod Bog nad bogovima, on zna, i Izrailj neka zna. Ako smo radi odmetati se i griješiti Gospodu, neka nas ne saèuva danas.
23 If we have disobeyed one of Yahweh’s laws, we request that he should punish us. We did not build that new altar to completely burn animals as sacrifices to Yahweh, or to offer on it sacrifices of grain or sacrifices to maintain fellowship with God.
Ako smo naèinili oltar da se odvratimo od Gospoda ili da prinosimo na njemu žrtve paljenice ili dare ili da prinosimo na njemu žrtve zahvalne, Gospod neka traži.
24 “This is the reason that we built that altar: We were afraid/worried that some day your descendants would say that our descendants are not true Israelis. We were afraid that then they would say, ‘You are not allowed to worship Yahweh, the God whom we Israelis [worship].
Nego to uèinismo bojeæi se ovoga: rekosmo: sjutra æe reæi sinovi vaši sinovima našim govoreæi: šta vi imate s Gospodom Bogom Izrailjevim?
25 Yahweh caused the Jordan River to be a boundary between us and you people of the tribes of Reuben and Gad. So you are not allowed to worship Yahweh.’ We were worried that your descendants would force our descendants to stop worshiping Yahweh.
Meðu je postavio Gospod izmeðu nas i vas, sinovi Ruvimovi i Gadovi, Jordan; vi nemate dijela u Gospoda. Te æe sinovi vaši odbiti sinove naše da se ne boje Gospoda.
26 “That is the reason that we decided to build that [new] altar. But it is not an altar for completely burning sacrifices of animals and [burning other] sacrifices.
Zato rekosmo: uèinimo tako, i naèinimo oltar, ne za žrtvu paljenicu ni za drugu žrtvu,
27 We built that new altar to prove/show to you and to us and to all of our descendants that we worship Yahweh by completely burning animal sacrifices and offerings of grain and offerings to maintain fellowship with Yahweh [only at the place Yahweh chooses]. We do not want your descendants to say to our descendants, ‘You do not belong to Yahweh.’
Nego da bude svjedok meðu nama i vama, i meðu natražjem našim nakon nas, da bismo služili Gospodu pred njim žrtvama svojim paljenicama i prinosima svojim, i žrtvama svojim zahvalnim, i da ne bi rekli kadgod sinovi vaši sinovima našim: vi nemate dijela u Gospoda.
28 “In the future, if your descendants say that, our descendants can say, ‘Look at the altar that our ancestors made! It is exactly like Yahweh’s altar [that our ancestors built], but we do not burn sacrifices on it. It only shows that we are Israelis!’
Jer rekosmo: ako kad reku tako nama ili natražju našemu, tada æemo im kazati: vidite sliku od oltara Gospodnjega koju naèiniše oci naši ne za žrtvu paljenicu ni za drugu žrtvu, nego da je svjedoèanstvo meðu nama i vama.
29 We certainly do not want to rebel against Yahweh or stop doing what he desires, by building an altar for completely burning some sacrifices and burning grain offerings and making [other] sacrifices. [We know that] there is only one true altar for Yahweh our God, and it is in front of the Sacred Tent [at Shiloh].”
Ne daj Bože da se odmeæemo Gospodu i da se danas odvraæamo od Gospoda naèinivši oltar za žrtvu paljenicu, za dar ili za prinos, mimo oltar Gospoda Boga našega, koji je pred šatorom njegovijem.
30 When Phinehas the priest and the other [ten] leaders heard what they said, they were pleased.
A kad èu Fines sveštenik i knezovi od zbora, poglavari od tisuæa Izrailjevih koji bijahu s njim, rijeèi koje im rekoše sinovi Ruvimovi i sinovi Gadovi i sinovi Manasijini, bi im po volji.
31 So Phinehas said to them, “Now we know that Yahweh is with all of us Israelis, and that you were not rebelling against him [when you built that altar]. And we know that Yahweh will not punish us Israelis [because of your having done that].”
I reèe Fines sin Eleazara sveštenika sinovima Ruvimovijem i sinovima Gadovijem i sinovima Manasijinim: danas poznasmo da je meðu nama Gospod kad se ne ogriješiste Gospodu tijem grijehom, i saèuvaste sinove Izrailjeve od ruku Gospodnjih.
32 Then Phinehas and the Israeli leaders left the people of the tribes of Reuben and Gad in the Gilead region, and returned to Canaan. There they told the other Israelis what had happened.
I Fines sin Eleazara sveštenika i oni knezovi vratiše se od sinova Ruvimovijeh i od sinova Gadovijeh iz zemlje Galadske u zemlju Hanansku k sinovima Izrailjevijem, i javiše im stvar.
33 They were pleased, and they thanked God. And they did not talk any more about fighting against the people of the tribes of Reuben and Gad and destroying everything in their land.
I bi po volji sinovima Izrailjevijem; i hvališe Boga sinovi Izrailjevi, i ne govoriše više da idu da se biju s njima da potru zemlju, u kojoj žive sinovi Ruvimovi i sinovi Gadovi.
34 The people of the tribes of Reuben and Gad named their new altar ‘A reminder to us all that Yahweh is God’.
I prozvaše sinovi Ruvimovi i sinovi Gadovi onaj oltar Ed govoreæi: svjedok je meðu nama da je Gospod Bog.
