Deuteronomy 33
1 This is the blessing with which Moses the man of God blessed the children of Israel before his death.
A ovo je blagoslov kojim blagoslovi Mojsije èovjek Božji sinove Izrailjeve pred smrt svoju.
2 He said, “The LORD came from Sinai, and rose from Seir to them. He shone from Mount Paran. He came from the ten thousands of holy ones. At his right hand was a fiery law for them.
I reèe: Gospod izide sa Sinaja, i pokaza im se sa Sira; zasja s gore Faranske, i doðe s mnoštvom tisuæa svetaca, a u desnici mu zakon ognjeni za njih.
3 Yes, he loves the people. All his holy ones are in your hand. They sat down at your feet. Each receives your words.
Doista ljubi narode; svi su sveti njegovi u ruci tvojoj; i oni se slegoše k nogama tvojim da prime rijeèi tvoje.
4 Moses commanded us a law, an inheritance for the assembly of Jacob.
Mojsije nam dade zakon, našljedstvo zboru Jakovljevu.
5 He was king in Jeshurun, when the heads of the people were gathered, all the tribes of Israel together.

6 “Let Reuben live, and not die; Nor let his men be few.”
Da živi Ruvim i ne umre, a ljudi njegovijeh da bude malo!
7 This is for Judah. He said, “Hear, LORD, the voice of Judah. Bring him in to his people. With his hands he contended for himself. You shall be a help against his adversaries.”
A za Judu reèe: usliši Gospode glas Judin, i dovedi ga opet k narodu njegovu; ruke njegove neka vojuju za nj, a ti mu pomaži protiv neprijatelja njegovijeh.
8 About Levi he said, “Your Thummim and your Urim are with your godly one, whom you proved at Massah, with whom you contended at the waters of Meribah.
I za Levija reèe: tvoj Tumim i tvoj Urim neka budu u èovjeka tvojega svetoga, kojega si okušao u Masi i s kojim si se prepirao na vodi Merivi;
9 He said of his father, and of his mother, ‘I have not seen him.’ He didn’t acknowledge his brothers, nor did he know his own children; for they have observed your word, and keep your covenant.
Koji reèe ocu svojemu i materi svojoj: ne gledam na vas; koji ne poznaje braæe svoje i za sinove svoje ne zna; jer drže rijeèi tvoje, i zavjet tvoj èuvaju.
10 They shall teach Jacob your ordinances, and Israel your law. They shall put incense before you, and whole burnt offering on your altar.
Oni uèe uredbama tvojim Jakova i zakonu tvojemu Izrailja, i meæu kad pod nozdrve tvoje i žrtvu što se sažiže na oltar tvoj.
11 LORD, bless his skills. Accept the work of his hands. Strike through the hips of those who rise up against him, of those who hate him, that they not rise again.”
Blagoslovi, Gospode, vojsku njegovu, i neka ti milo bude djelo ruku njegovijeh; polomi bedre onima koji ustaju na nj i koji mrze na nj, da ne ustanu.
12 About Benjamin he said, “The beloved of the LORD will dwell in safety by him. He covers him all day long. He dwells between his shoulders.”

13 About Joseph he said, “His land is blessed by the LORD, for the precious things of the heavens, for the dew, for the deep that couches beneath,
I za Josifa reèe: blagoslovena je zemlja njegova od Gospoda blagom s neba, rosom, i iz dubine ozdo,
14 for the precious things of the fruits of the sun, for the precious things that the moon can yield,
I blagom koje dolazi od sunca, i blagom koje dolazi od mjeseca,
15 for the best things of the ancient mountains, for the precious things of the everlasting hills,
I blagom starijeh brda i blagom vjeènijeh humova,
16 for the precious things of the earth and its fullness, the good will of him who lived in the bush. Let this come on the head of Joseph, on the crown of the head of him who was separated from his brothers.
I blagom na zemlji i obiljem njezinijem, i milošæu onoga koji stoji u kupini. Neka to doðe na glavu Josifu i na tjeme odvojenome izmeðu braæe svoje.
17 Majesty belongs to the firstborn of his herd. His horns are the horns of the wild ox. With them he will push all the peoples to the ends of the earth. They are the ten thousands of Ephraim. They are the thousands of Manasseh.”
Krasota je njegova kao u prvenca teleta, i rogovi njegovi kao rogovi u jednoroga; njima æe bosti narode sve do kraja zemlje; to je mnoštvo tisuæa Jefremovijeh i tisuæe Manasijine.
18 About Zebulun he said, “Rejoice, Zebulun, in your going out; and Issachar, in your tents.
A za Zavulona reèe: veseli se Zavulone izlaskom svojim, i Isahare šatorima svojim.
19 They will call the peoples to the mountain. There they will offer sacrifices of righteousness, for they will draw out the abundance of the seas, the hidden treasures of the sand.”

20 About Gad he said, “He who enlarges Gad is blessed. He dwells as a lioness, and tears the arm and the crown of the head.
A za Gada reèe: blagosloven je koji širi Gada; on nastava kao lav, i kida ruku i glavu.
21 He provided the first part for himself, for the lawgiver’s portion was reserved for him. He came with the heads of the people. He executed the righteousness of the LORD, His ordinances with Israel.”
Izabra sebi prvo, jer ondje dobi dio od onoga koji dade zakon; zato æe iæi s knezovima narodnijem, i izvršivati pravdu Gospodnju i sudove njegove s Izrailjem.
22 About Dan he said, “Dan is a lion’s cub that leaps out of Bashan.”

25 Your bars will be iron and bronze. As your days, so your strength will be.
Gvožðe i mjed biæe pod obuæom tvojom; i dokle traju dani tvoji trajaæe snaga tvoja.
26 “There is no one like God, Jeshurun, who rides on the heavens for your help, in his excellency on the skies.
Izrailju! niko nije kao Bog, koji ide po nebu tebi u pomoæ, i u velièanstvu svojem na oblacima.
27 The eternal God is your dwelling place. Underneath are the everlasting arms. He thrust out the enemy from before you, and said, ‘Destroy!’
Zaklon je Bog vjeèni i pod mišicom vjeènom; on æe odagnati ispred tebe neprijatelje tvoje, i reæi æe: zatri!
28 Israel dwells in safety, the fountain of Jacob alone, In a land of grain and new wine. Yes, his heavens drop down dew.
Da bi nastavao Izrailj sam bezbrižno, izvor Jakovljev, u zemlji obilnoj žitom i vinom; i nebo æe njegovo kropiti rosom.
29 You are happy, Israel! Who is like you, a people saved by the LORD, the shield of your help, the sword of your excellency? Your enemies will submit themselves to you. You will tread on their high places.”
Blago tebi, Izrailju! ko je kao ti, narod kojega je saèuvao Gospod, štit pomoæi tvoje, i maè slave tvoje? Neprijatelji æe se tvoji poniziti, a ti æeš gaziti visine njihove.
