< Deuteronomy 1 >

1 These are the words which Moses spoke to all Israel beyond the Jordan in the wilderness, in the Arabah opposite Suf, between Paran, Tophel, Laban, Hazeroth, and Dizahab.
To so besede, ki jih je Mojzes govoril vsemu Izraelu na tej strani Jordana, v divjini, na ravnini nasproti Rdečemu morju, med Paránom, Tofelom, Labánom, Hacerótom in Di Zahábom.
2 It is eleven days’ journey from Horeb by the way of Mount Seir to Kadesh Barnea.
( Tam je enajstdnevno potovanje od Horeba, po poti gorovja Seír do Kadeš Barnée.)
3 In the fortieth year, in the eleventh month, on the first day of the month, Moses spoke to the children of Israel according to all that the LORD had given him in commandment to them,
V štiridesetem letu, v enajstem mesecu, na prvi dan meseca, se je pripetilo, da je Mojzes spregovoril Izraelovim otrokom glede vsega, kar mu je Gospod dal njim v zapoved,
4 after he had struck Sihon the king of the Amorites who lived in Heshbon, and Og the king of Bashan who lived in Ashtaroth, at Edrei.
potem, ko je umoril amoréjskega kralja Sihóna, ki je prebival v Hešbónu in bašánskega kralja Oga, ki je prebival pri Aštarótu v Edréiju,
5 Beyond the Jordan, in the land of Moab, Moses began to declare this law, saying,
na tej strani Jordana, v moábski deželi, je Mojzes začel oznanjati to postavo, rekoč:
6 “The LORD our God spoke to us in Horeb, saying, ‘You have lived long enough at this mountain.
» Gospod, naš Bog, nam je spregovoril na Horebu, rekoč: ›Dovolj dolgo ste prebivali na tej gori.
7 Turn, and take your journey, and go to the hill country of the Amorites and to all the places near there: in the Arabah, in the hill country, in the lowland, in the South, by the seashore, in the land of the Canaanites, and in Lebanon as far as the great river, the river Euphrates.
Obrnite se in pojdite na potovanje in pojdite h gori Amoréjcev in k vsem krajem blizu nje, na ravnini, na hribih, v dolini, na jugu in ob morski obali, k deželi Kánaancev in k Libanonu, k veliki reki, reki Evfrat.
8 Behold, I have set the land before you. Go in and possess the land which the LORD swore to your fathers—to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob—to give to them and to their offspring after them.’”
Glejte, pred vas sem postavil deželo. Vstopite in vzemite v last deželo, ki jo je Gospod prisegel vašim očetom, Abrahamu, Izaku in Jakobu, da jo da njim in njihovemu semenu za njimi.‹
9 I spoke to you at that time, saying, “I am not able to bear you myself alone.
Ob tistem času sem vam govoril, rekoč: ›Nisem vas zmožen nositi sam.
10 The LORD your God has multiplied you, and behold, you are today as the stars of the sky for multitude.
Gospod, vaš Bog, vas je pomnožil in glejte, vas je ta dan kakor zvezd neba zaradi množice.
11 May the LORD, the God of your fathers, make you a thousand times as many as you are and bless you, as he has promised you!
( Gospod, Bog vaših očetov, naj vas naredi tisočkrat toliko, kot vas je in vas blagoslovi, kot vam je obljubil!)
12 How can I myself alone bear your problems, your burdens, and your strife?
Kako lahko jaz sam nosim vašo obremenitev, vaše breme in vaš prepir?
13 Take wise men of understanding who are respected amongst your tribes, and I will make them heads over you.”
Vzemite si modre može, razumne in poznane med svojimi rodovi in jaz jih bom naredil voditelje nad vami.‹
14 You answered me, and said, “The thing which you have spoken is good to do.”
Odgovorili ste mi in rekli: ›Stvar, ki si jo govoril, je za nas dobra, da [jo] storimo.‹
15 So I took the heads of your tribes, wise and respected men, and made them heads over you, captains of thousands, captains of hundreds, captains of fifties, captains of tens, and officers, according to your tribes.
Tako sem vzel vodilne izmed vaših rodov, modre može in poznane in jih naredil poglavarje nad vami, tisočnike, stotnike, petdesetnike, desetnike in častnike med vašimi rodovi.
16 I commanded your judges at that time, saying, “Hear cases between your brothers and judge righteously between a man and his brother, and the foreigner who is living with him.
Ob tistem času sem zadolžil vaše sodnike, rekoč: ›Prisluhnite pravdam med vašimi brati in pravično sodite med vsakim možem, njegovim bratom in tujcem, ki je z njim.
17 You shall not show partiality in judgement; you shall hear the small and the great alike. You shall not be afraid of the face of man, for the judgement is God’s. The case that is too hard for you, you shall bring to me, and I will hear it.”
Pri sodbi se ne boste ozirali na osebe; temveč boste prisluhnili tako majhnemu kakor velikemu. Ne boste se bali obličja človeka, kajti razsodba je Božja. Zadevo pa, ki je za vas pretežka, to prinesite k meni in ji bom prisluhnil.‹
18 I commanded you at that time all the things which you should do.
Ob tistem času sem vam zapovedal vse stvari, ki naj bi jih storili.
19 We travelled from Horeb and went through all that great and terrible wilderness which you saw, by the way to the hill country of the Amorites, as the LORD our God commanded us; and we came to Kadesh Barnea.
Ko smo odpotovali od Horeba, smo odšli skozi vso to veliko in strašno divjino, ki ste jo videli po poti gore Amoréjcev, kakor nam je Gospod, naš Bog, zapovedal, in prišli smo do Kadeš Barnée.
20 I said to you, “You have come to the hill country of the Amorites, which the LORD our God gives to us.
Rekel sem vam: ›Prišli ste h gori Amoréjcev, ki nam jo daje Gospod, naš Bog.
21 Behold, the LORD your God has set the land before you. Go up, take possession, as the LORD the God of your fathers has spoken to you. Don’t be afraid, neither be dismayed.”
Glej, Gospod, tvoj Bog je predte postavil deželo. Pojdi gor in si jo vzemi v last, kakor ti je rekel Gospod, Bog tvojih očetov. Ne boj se niti ne izgubi poguma.‹
22 You came near to me, everyone of you, and said, “Let’s send men before us, that they may search the land for us, and bring back to us word of the way by which we must go up, and the cities to which we shall come.”
Približali ste si mi, vsak izmed vas in rekli: ›Pred nami bomo poslali može in preiskali bodo deželo in nam ponovno prinesli besedo, po kateri poti moramo iti gor in v katera mesta bomo prišli.‹
23 The thing pleased me well. I took twelve of your men, one man for every tribe.
Govor mi je ugajal, in izmed vas sem vzel dvanajst mož, enega iz rodu
24 They turned and went up into the hill country, and came to the valley of Eshcol, and spied it out.
in obrnili so se in odšli gor na goro in prišli v dolino Eškól in jo preiskali.
25 They took some of the fruit of the land in their hands and brought it down to us, and brought us word again, and said, “It is a good land which the LORD our God gives to us.”
V svoje roke so vzeli od sadu dežele in to prinesli dol k nam in nam ponovno prinesli besedo ter rekli: › To je dobra dežela, ki nam jo daje Gospod, naš Bog.‹
26 Yet you wouldn’t go up, but rebelled against the commandment of the LORD your God.
Vendar niste hoteli iti gor, temveč [ste se] uprli zoper zapoved Gospoda, svojega Boga.
27 You murmured in your tents, and said, “Because the LORD hated us, he has brought us out of the land of Egypt, to deliver us into the hand of the Amorites to destroy us.
V svojih šotorih ste godrnjali in rekli: ›Zato, ker nas je Gospod sovražil, nas je privedel naprej, ven iz egiptovske dežele, da nas izroči v roke Amoréjcev, da nas uničijo.
28 Where are we going up? Our brothers have made our heart melt, saying, ‘The people are greater and taller than we. The cities are great and fortified up to the sky. Moreover we have seen the sons of the Anakim there!’”
Kam naj gremo gor? Naši bratje so našemu srcu vzeli pogum, rekoč: ›Ljudstvo je večje in višje, kakor smo mi. Mesta so velika in ograjena do neba, in poleg tega smo tam videli Anákove sinove.‹‹
29 Then I said to you, “Don’t be terrified. Don’t be afraid of them.
Potem sem vam rekel: ›Ne bodite zaprepadeni niti se jih ne bojte.
30 The LORD your God, who goes before you, he will fight for you, according to all that he did for you in Egypt before your eyes,
Gospod, vaš Bog, ki gre pred vami, se bo boril za vas, glede na vse, kar je pred vašimi očmi za vas storil v Egiptu
31 and in the wilderness where you have seen how that the LORD your God carried you, as a man carries his son, in all the way that you went, until you came to this place.”
in v divjini, kjer si videl, kako te je nosil Gospod, tvoj Bog, kakor mož nosi svojega sina, na vsej poti, kamor ste odšli, dokler niste prišli na ta kraj.‹
32 Yet in this thing you didn’t believe the LORD your God,
Vendar v tej stvari niste verovali Gospodu, svojemu Bogu,
33 who went before you on the way, to seek out a place for you to pitch your tents in: in fire by night, to show you by what way you should go, and in the cloud by day.
ki je pred vami odšel na pot, da vam poišče prostor, da na njem postavite svoje šotore, v ognju ponoči, da vam pokaže po kateri pot naj bi šli, in v oblaku podnevi.
34 The LORD heard the voice of your words and was angry, and swore, saying,
Gospod je slišal glas vaših besed in bil ogorčen ter prisegel, rekoč:
35 “Surely not one of these men of this evil generation shall see the good land which I swore to give to your fathers,
›Zagotovo ne bo nobeden izmed teh mož tega zlega rodu videl te dobre dežele, za katero sem prisegel, da jo dam vašim očetom,
36 except Caleb the son of Jephunneh. He shall see it. I will give the land that he has trodden on to him and to his children, because he has wholly followed the LORD.”
razen Jefunéjevega sina Kaléba; on jo bo videl in njemu bom dal deželo, po kateri je stopal in njegovim otrokom, ker je v celoti sledil Gospodu.‹
37 Also the LORD was angry with me for your sakes, saying, “You also shall not go in there.
Prav tako je bil Gospod zaradi vas jezen name, rekoč: ›Ti tudi ne boš vstopil vanjo.
38 Joshua the son of Nun, who stands before you, shall go in there. Encourage him, for he shall cause Israel to inherit it.
Toda Nunov sin Józue, ki stoji pred teboj, on bo vstopil tja. Ohrabri ga, kajti Izraelu bo povzročil, da jo podeduje.
39 Moreover your little ones, whom you said would be captured or killed, your children, who today have no knowledge of good or evil, shall go in there. I will give it to them, and they shall possess it.
Poleg tega bodo vaši malčki, za katere ste rekli, da bi morali biti plen in vaši otroci, ki na ta dan niso imeli spoznanja med dobrim in zlom, oni bodo vstopili tja in njim jo bom dal in oni jo bodo vzeli v last.
40 But as for you, turn, and take your journey into the wilderness by the way to the Sea of Suf.”
Toda kar se tiče vas, se obrnite in pojdite na potovanje v divjino, po poti Rdečega morja.‹
41 Then you answered and said to me, “We have sinned against the LORD. We will go up and fight, according to all that the LORD our God commanded us.” Every man of you put on his weapons of war, and presumed to go up into the hill country.
Potem ste mi odgovorili in rekli: ›Grešili smo zoper Gospoda, šli bomo gor in se borili, glede na vse, kar nam je zapovedal Gospod, naš Bog.‹ In ko ste si opasali vsak mož svoje bojno orožje, ste bili pripravljeni, da greste gor na hrib.
42 The LORD said to me, “Tell them, ‘Don’t go up and don’t fight; for I am not amongst you, lest you be struck before your enemies.’”
Gospod mi je rekel: ›Reci jim: ›Ne pojdite gor niti se ne bojujte, kajti jaz nisem med vami, da ne bi bili udarjeni pred svojimi sovražniki.‹‹
43 So I spoke to you, and you didn’t listen; but you rebelled against the commandment of the LORD, and were presumptuous, and went up into the hill country.
Tako sem vam govoril, pa niste hoteli slišati, temveč [ste se] uprli zoper Gospodovo zapoved in prepotentno odšli na hrib.
44 The Amorites, who lived in that hill country, came out against you and chased you as bees do, and beat you down in Seir, even to Hormah.
Amoréjci, ki prebivajo na tej gori, so prišli ven zoper vas in vas preganjali, kakor počnejo čebele in vas uničili v Seírju, celó do Horme.
45 You returned and wept before the LORD, but the LORD didn’t listen to your voice, nor turn his ear to you.
Vrnili ste se in jokali pred Gospodom, toda Gospod ni hotel prisluhniti vašemu glasu niti nagniti ušesa k vam.
46 So you stayed in Kadesh many days, according to the days that you remained.
Tako ste mnogo dni ostali v Kadešu, glede na dneve, ko ste ostajali tam.
