Ponovljeni Zakon 32

1 Slušaj, nebo, govoriæu; i zemlja neka èuje govor usta mojih.

Attend, O heaven, and I will speak; and let the earth hear the words out of my mouth.

2 Neka se spusti kao dažd nauka moja, i neka padne kao rosa govor moj, kao sitan dažd na mladu travu i kao krupan dažd na odraslu travu.

Let my speech be looked for as the rain, and my words come down as dew, as the shower upon the herbage, and as snow upon the grass.

3 Jer æu javljati ime Gospodnje; velièajte Boga našega.

For I have called on the name of the Lord: assign you greatness to our God.

4 Djelo je te stijene savršeno, jer su svi putovi njegovi pravda; Bog je vjeran, bez nepravde; pravedan je i istinit.

[As for God], his works [are] true, and all his ways [are] judgement: God [is] faithful, and there is no unrighteousness [in him]; just and holy [is] the Lord.

5 Oni se pokvariše prema njemu; njihovo nevaljalstvo nije nevaljalstvo sinova njegovijeh; to je rod zao i pokvaren.

They have sinned, not [pleasing] him; spotted children, a froward and perverse generation.

6 Tako li vraæate Gospodu, narode ludi i bezumni? nije li on otac tvoj, koji te je zadobio? on te je naèinio i stvorio.

Do you thus recompense the Lord? [is the] people thus foolish and unwise? did not he himself your father purchase you, and make you, and form you?

7 Opomeni se negdašnjih dana, pogledajte godine svakoga vijeka; pitaj oca svojega i on æe ti javiti, starije svoje i kazaæe ti.

Remember the days of old, consider the years for past ages: ask your father, and he shall relate to you, your elders, and they shall tell you.

8 Kad višnji razdade našljedstvo narodima, kad razdijeli sinove Adamove, postavi meðe narodima po broju sinova Izrailjevih.

When the Most High divided the nations, when he separated the sons of Adam, he set the bounds of the nations according to the number of the angels of God.

9 Jer je dio Gospodnji narod njegov, Jakov je uže našljedstva njegova.

And his people Jacob became the portion of the Lord, Israel was the line of his inheritance.

10 Naðe ga u zemlji pustoj, na mjestu strašnu gdje buèi pustoš; vodi ga unaokolo, uèi ga i èuva kao zjenicu oka svojega.

He maintained him in the wilderness, in burning thirst and a dry land: he led him about and instructed him, and kept him as the apple of an eye.

11 Kao što orao izmamljuje orliæe svoje, diže se nad ptiæima svojim, širi krila svoja, uzima ih i nosi na krilima svojim,

As an eagle would watch over his brood, and yearns over his young, receives them having spread his wings, and takes them up on his back:

12 Tako ga Gospod voðaše, i s njim ne bješe tuðega boga;

the Lord alone led them, there was no strange god with them.

13 Voðaše ga na visine zemaljske da jede rod poljski, i davaše mu da sisa med iz stijene i ulje iz tvrdoga kamena,

He brought them up on the strength of the land; he fed them with the fruits of the fields; they sucked honey out of the rock, and oil out of the solid rock.

14 Maslo od krava i mlijeko od ovaca s pretilinom od jaganjaca i ovnova Vasanskih i jaraca, sa srcem zrna pšeniènih; i pio si vino, krv od grožða.

Butter of cows, and milk of sheep, with the fat of lambs and rams, of calves and kids, with fat of kidneys of wheat; and he drank wine, the blood of the grape.

15 Ali se Izrailj ugoji, pa se stade ritati; utio si, udebljao i zasalio; pa ostavi Boga koji ga je stvorio, i prezre stijenu spasenja svojega.

So Jacob ate and was filled, and the beloved one kicked; he grew fat, he became thick and broad: then he forsook the God that made him, and departed from God his Saviour.

16 Na revnost razdražiše ga tuðim bogovima, gadovima razgnjeviše ga.

They provoked me to anger with strange gods; with their abominations they bitterly angered me.

17 Prinosiše žrtve ðavolima, ne Bogu, bogovima, kojih nijesu znali, novim, koji iz bliza doðoše, kojih se nijesu strašili oci vaši.

They sacrificed to devils, and not to God; to gods whom they knew not: new and fresh [gods] came in, whom their fathers knew not.

18 Stijenu koja te je rodila zaboravio si; zaboravio si Boga stvoritelja svojega.

You have forsaken God that begot you, and forgotten God who feeds you.

19 Kad to vidje Gospod, razgnjevi se na sinove svoje i na kæeri svoje,

And the Lord saw, and was jealous; and was provoked by the anger of his sons and daughters,

20 I reèe: sakriæu od njih lice svoje, vidjeæu kakav æe im biti pošljedak, jer su rod pokvaren, sinovi u kojima nema vjere.

and said, I will turn away my face from them, and will show what shall happen to them in the last days; for it is a perverse generation, sons in whom is no faith.

21 Oni me razdražiše na revnost onijem što nije Bog, razgnjeviše svojim taštinama; i ja æu njih razdražiti na revnost onijem koji nije narod, narodom ludijem razljutiæu ih.

They have provoked me to jealousy with [that which is] not God, they have exasperated me with their idols; and I will provoke them to jealousy with them that are no nation, I will anger them with a nation void of understanding.

22 Jer se oganj razgorio u gnjevu mojem, i gorjeæe do najdubljega pakla; spaliæe zemlju i rod njezin, i popaliæe temelje brdima. (Sheol h7585)

For a fire has been kindled out of my wrath, it shall burn to hell below; it shall devour the land, and the fruits of it; it shall set on fire the foundations of the mountains. (Sheol h7585)

23 Zgrnuæu na njih zla, strijele svoje pobacaæu na njih.

I will gather evils upon them, and will fight with my weapons against them.

24 Glad æe ih cijediti, vruæice i ljuti pomori proždiraæe ih; i zube zvjerske poslaæu na njih i jed zmija zemaljskih.

[They shall be] consumed with hunger and the devouring of birds, and there shall be irremediable destruction: I will send forth against them the teeth of wild beasts, with the rage of [serpents] creeping on the ground.

25 Spolja æe ih ubijati maè, a po klijetima strah, i momka i djevojku, dijete na sisi i sijeda èovjeka.

Without, the sword shall bereave them of children, and terror [shall issue] out of the secret chambers; the young man shall perish with the virgin, the suckling with him who has grown old.

26 Rekao bih: rasijaæu ih po svijem uglovima zemaljskim, uèiniæu da nestane spomena njihova izmeðu ljudi,

I said, I will scatter them, and I will cause their memorial to cease from amongst men.

27 Da mi nije do mržnje neprijateljeve, da se ne bi neprijatelji njihovi ponijeli i rekli: ruka se naša uzvisila, a nije Gospod uèinio sve ovo.

Were it not for the wrath of the enemy, lest they should live long, lest their enemies should combine against them; lest they should say, Our own high arm, and not the Lord, has done all these things.

28 Jer su narod koji propada sa svojih namjera, i nema u njih razuma.

It is a nation that has lost counsel, neither is there understanding in them.

29 Kamo da su pametni, da razumiju ovo, i gledaju na pošljedak svoj!

They had not sense to understand: let them reserve these things against the time to come.

30 Kako bi jedan gonio tisuæu a dvojica tjerala deset tisuæa, da ih nije stijena njihova prodala i Gospod ih predao?

How should one pursue a thousand, and two rout tens of thousands, if God had not sold them, and the Lord delivered them up?

31 Jer stijena njihova nije kao naša stijena; neprijatelji naši neka budu sudije.

For their gods are not as our God, but our enemies [are] void of understanding.

32 Jer je èokot njihov od èokota Sodomskoga i iz polja Gomorskoga; grožðe je njihovo grožðe otrovno, puca su mu gorka.

For their vine [is] of the vine of Sodom, and their vine-branch of Gomorrha: their grape [is] a grape of gall, their cluster [is] one of bitterness.

33 Vino je njihovo otrov zmajevski, i ljuti jed aspidin.

Their wine [is] the rage of serpents, and the incurable rage of asps.

34 Nije li to sakriveno kod mene, zapeèaæeno u riznicama mojim?

Behold! are not these things stored up by me, and sealed amongst my treasures?

35 Moja je osveta i plata, u svoje vrijeme popuznuæe noga njihova, jer je blizu dan propasti njihove, i ide brzo što æe ih zadesiti.

In the day of vengeance I will recompense, whenever their foot shall be tripped up; for the day of their destruction [is] near to them, and the judgements at hand are close upon you.

36 Sudiæe Gospod narodu svojemu, i žao æe mu biti sluga njegovijeh, kad vidi da je prošla snaga i da nema ništa ni od uhvaæenoga ni od ostavljenoga.

For the Lord shall judge his people, and shall be comforted over his servants; for he saw that they were utterly weakened, and failed in the hostile invasion, and were become feeble:

37 I reæi æe: gdje su bogovi njihovi? stijena u koju se uzdaše?

and the Lord said, Where are their gods on whom they trusted?

38 Koji salo od žrtava njegovijeh jedoše i piše vino od naljeva njihovijeh. Neka ustanu i pomogu vam, i neka vam budu zaklon.

the fat of whose sacrifices you ate, and you drank the wine of their drink-offerings? let them arise and help you, and be your protectors.

39 Vidite sada da sam ja, ja sam, i da nema Boga osim mene. Ja ubijam i oživljujem, ranim i iscjeljujem, i nema nikoga ko bi izbavio iz moje ruke.

Behold, behold that I am [he], and there is no god beside me: I kill, and I will make to live: I will strike, and I will heal; and there is none who shall deliver out of my hands.

40 Jer podižem k nebu ruku svoju i kažem: ja sam živ dovijeka.

For I will lift up my hand to heaven, and swear by my right hand, and I will say, I live for ever.

41 Ako naoštrim sjajni maè svoj i uzmem u ruku sud, uèiniæu osvetu na neprijateljima svojim i vratiæu onima koji mrze na me.

For I will sharpen my sword like lightning, and my hand shall take hold of judgement; and I will render judgement to my enemies, and will recompense them that hate me.

42 Opojiæu strijele svoje krvlju, i maè æe se moj najesti mesa, krvlju isjeèenijeh i zarobljenijeh, kad poènem osvetu na neprijateljima.

I will make my weapons drunk with blood, and my sword shall devour flesh, [it shall glut itself] with the blood of the wounded, and from the captivity of the heads of [their] enemies that rule over them.

43 Veselite se narodi s narodom njegovijem, jer æe pokajati krv sluga svojih, i osvetiæe se neprijateljima svojim, i oèistiæe zemlju svoju i narod svoj.

Rejoice, you heavens, with him, and let all the angels of God worship him; rejoice you Gentiles, with his people, and let all the sons of God strengthen themselves in him; for he will avenge the blood of his sons, and he will render vengeance, and recompense justice to his enemies, and will reward them that hate him; and the Lord shall purge the land of his people.

44 I doðe Mojsije i izgovori sve rijeèi pjesme ove narodu, on i Isus sin Navin.

And Moses wrote this song in that day, and taught it to the children of Israel; and Moses went in and spoke all the words of this law in the ears of the people, he and Joshua the [son] of Naue.

45 A kad izgovori Mojsije sve rijeèi ove svemu Izrailju,

And Moses finished speaking to all Israel.

46 Reèe im: privijte srce svoje k svijem rijeèima koje vam ja danas zasvjedoèavam, i kazujte ih sinovima svojim da bi držali sve rijeèi ovoga zakona i tvorili ih.

And he said to them, Take heed with your heart to all these words, which I testify to you this day, which you shall command your sons, to observe and do all the words of this law.

47 Jer nije prazna rijeè da za nju ne marite, nego je život vaš; i tom æete rijeèju produljiti dane svoje na zemlji, u koju idete preko Jordana da je naslijedite.

For this [is] no vain word to you; for it [is] your life, and because of this word you shall live long upon the land, into which you go over Jordan to inherit it.

48 U isti dan reèe Gospod Mojsiju govoreæi:

And the Lord spoke to Moses in this day, saying,

49 Izidi na ovu goru Avarimsku, na goru Navav, koja je u zemlji Moavskoj prema Jerihonu, i vidi zemlju Hanansku koju dajem sinovima Izrailjevijem u državu.

Go up to the mount Abarim, this mountain Nabau which is in the land of Moab over against Jericho, and behold the land of Chanaan, which I give to the sons of Israel:

50 I umri na gori na koju izideš, i priberi s k rodu svojemu, kao što je umro Aron brat tvoj na gori Oru i pribrao se k rodu svojemu.

and die in the mount whither you go up, and be added to your people; as Aaron your brother died in mount Or, and was added to his people.

51 Jer mi zgriješiste meðu sinovima Izrailjevijem na vodi od svaðe u Kadisu, u pustinji Sinu, što me ne proslaviste meðu sinovima Izrailjevijem.

Because you disobeyed my word amongst the children of Israel, at the waters of strife of Cades in the wilderness of Sin; because you sanctified me not amongst the sons of Israel.

52 Pred sobom æeš vidjeti zemlju, ali neæeš u nju uæi, u zemlju koju dajem sinovima Izrailjevijem.

You shall see the land before [you], but you shall not enter into it.
