Numbers 16

NEW AMERICAN BIBLE	Biblija Hrvatski
1 Korah, son of Izhar, son of Kohath, son of Levi, (and Dathan and Abiram, sons of Eliab, son of Pallu, son of Reuben) took	1 Korah, sin Jisharov, sin Kehatov, sin Levijev, pa Datan i Abiram, sinovi Eliabovi, i On, sin Peletov – potomci Rubenovi –
2 two hundred and fifty Israelites who were leaders in the community, members of the council and men of note. They stood before Moses,	2 ustanu protiv Mojsija zajedno sa dvjesta pedeset Izraelaca, glavara zajednice, uglednih na skupštini i ljudi na glasu.
3 and held an assembly against Moses and Aaron, to whom they said, "Enough from you! The whole community, all of them, are holy; the LORD is in their midst. Why then should you set yourselves over the LORD'S congregation?"	3 Oni se sjate oko Mojsija i Arona govoreći im: »Vi prelazite mjeru! Sva je zajednica, svi njezini članovi, posvećena i među njima je Jahve. Zašto se onda uzvisujete iznad zajednice Jahvine?«
4 When Moses heard this, he fell prostrate.	4 Kad to ču Mojsije, pade ničice.
5 Then he said to Korah and to all his band, "May the LORD make known tomorrow morning who belongs to him and who is the holy one and whom he will have draw near to him! Whom he chooses, he will have draw near him.	5 Zatim reče Korahu i svoj njegovoj družini: »Sutra će Jahve pokazati tko je njegov i tko je posvećen, kome dopušta da mu se približi. Koga sebi izabere, k sebi će ga i pustiti.
6 Do this: take your censers (Korah and all his band)	6 Učinite ovo: uzmite kadionike, Korah i sva njegova družina;
7 and put fire in them and place incense in them before the LORD tomorrow. He whom the LORD then chooses is the holy one. Enough from you Levites!"	7 sutra stavite u njih vatre i metnite odozgo tamjana pred Jahvom. Koga Jahve odabere, taj neka bude posvećen. Vi prelazite mjeru, Levijevci!«
8 Moses also said to Korah, "Listen to me, you Levites!	8 Potom Mojsije reče Korahu: »Poslušajte, Levijevci!
9 Is it too little for you that the God of Israel has singled you out from the community of Israel, to have you draw near him for the service of the LORD'S Dwelling and to stand before the community to minister for them?	9 Zar vam je malo što vas je Bog Izraelov izdvojio iz Izraelove zajednice da vas približi k sebi te da vršite službu u Jahvinu prebivalištu i da stojite pred zajednicom služeći joj?
10 He has allowed you and your kinsmen, the descendants of Levi, to approach him, and yet you now seek the priesthood too.	10 Promaknuo je tebe i s tobom svu tvoju braću Levijevce, a vi još tražite i svećeništvo!
11 It is therefore against the LORD that you and all your band are conspiring. For what has Aaron done that you should grumble against him?"	11 Ti i sva tvoja družina, dakle, sjatili ste se protiv Jahve; jer što je Aron da protiv njega rogoborite?«
12 Moses summoned Dathan and Abiram, sons of Eliab, but they answered, "We will not go.	12 Zatim posla Mojsije po Datana i Abirama, sinove Eliabove, ali oni odgovore: »Nećemo doći!
13 Are you not satisfied with having led us here away from a land flowing with milk and honey, to make us perish in the desert, that you must now lord it over us?	13 Zar je malo što si nas odveo iz zemlje kojom teče med i mlijeko da nas pobiješ u ovoj pustinji, pa hoćeš da nasilno zagospodariš nad nama?
14 Far from bringing us to a land flowing with milk and honey, or giving us fields and vineyards for our inheritance, will you also gouge out our eyes? No, we will not go."	14 Nisi nas uveo u zemlju kojom teče med i mlijeko i nisi nam dao u posjed njive i vinograde! Misliš li iskopati oči ovim ljudima? Nećemo doći!«
15 Then Moses became very angry and said to the LORD, "Pay no heed to their offering. I have never taken a single ass from them, nor have I wronged any one of them."	15 Mojsije se vrlo razljuti i reče Jahvi: »Ne obaziri se na njihovu prinosnicu! Ni jednoga njihova magarca nisam prisvojio niti sam ijednoga od njih oštetio.«
16 Moses said to Korah, "You and all your band shall appear before the LORD tomorrow-you and they and Aaron too.	16 Zatim Mojsije reče Korahu: »Ti i sva tvoja družina stupite sutra pred Jahvu; ti, i oni, i Aron.
17 Then each of your two hundred and fifty followers shall take his own censer, put incense in it, and offer it to the LORD; and you and Aaron, each with his own censer, shall do the same."	17 Neka svaki uzme svoj kadionik, stavi u nj tamjana i neka svaki donese svoj kadionik pred Jahvu – dvjesta i pedeset kadionika. A i ti i Aron donesite svaki svoj kadionik.«
18 So they all took their censers, and laying incense on the fire they had put in them, they took their stand by the entrance of the meeting tent along with Moses and Aaron.	18 Svaki uzme svoj kadionik, stavi u nj vatre, onda odozgo metne tamjana i stane s Mojsijem i Aronom kod ulaza u Šator sastanka.
19 Then, when Korah had assembled all his band against them at the entrance of the meeting tent, the glory of the LORD appeared to the entire community,	19 Kad, naprama njima, sabra Korah svu zajednicu na ulazu u Šator sastanka, onda se svoj zajednici pokaza slava Jahvina.
20 and the LORD said to Moses and Aaron,	20 I reče Jahve Mojsiju i Aronu:
21 "Stand apart from this band, that I may consume them at once."	21 »Odvojite se od te zajednice da je odmah satrem!«
22 But they fell prostrate and cried out, "O God, God of the spirits of all mankind, will one man's sin make you angry with the whole community?"	22 Oni popadoše ničice i povikaše: »Bože! Bože životnog duha u svakome tijelu! Zar ćeš se razgnjeviti na svu zajednicu kad je samo jedan sagriješio?«
23 The LORD answered Moses,	23 Onda Jahve reče Mojsiju:
24 "Speak to the community and tell them: Withdraw from the space around the Dwelling" (of Korah, Dathan and Abiram).	24 »Reci toj zajednici: ‘Uklonite se iz okolice prebivališta Koraha, Datana i Abirama!’«
25 Moses, followed by the elders of Israel, arose and went to Dathan and Abiram.	25 Mojsije ustade i pođe k Datanu i Abiramu. Za njim krenuše izraelske starješine.
26 Then he warned the community, "Keep away from the tents of these wicked men and do not touch anything that is theirs: otherwise you too will be swept away because of all their sins."	26 Zatim ovako progovori zajednici: »Odstupite od šatora tih opakih ljudi! Ne dotičite se ničega što je njihovo, da ne budete uništeni zbog svih njihovih grijeha.«
27 When Dathan and Abiram had come out and were standing at the entrances of their tents with their wives and sons and little ones,	27 Tako se oni udalje iz okolice prebivališta Korahova, Datanova i Abiramova. Uto izađu Datan i Abiram te stanu na ulazu svojih šatora sa svojim ženama, svojim sinovima i svojom nejačadi.
28 Moses said, "This is how you shall know that it was the LORD who sent me to do all I have done, and that it was not I who planned it:	28 »Po ovom ćete vidjeti«, reče Mojsije, »da me Jahve poslao da vršim sva ova djela, a da ih ne činim sam od sebe:
29 if these men die an ordinary death, merely suffering the fate common to all mankind, then it was not the LORD who sent me.	29 ako ovi ljudi umru kao što umru i svi ljudi; ako ih pohodi sudbina kakva pohodi sve ljude, onda me Jahve nije poslao.
30 But if the LORD does something entirely new, and the ground opens its mouth and swallows them alive down into the nether world, with all belonging to them, then you will know that these men have defied the LORD."	30 Ali ako Jahve učini nečuveno: ako zemlja rastvori svoje ralje i proguta ih sa svim što je njihovo te živi siđu u Šeol, onda znajte da su ovi ljudi prezreli Jahvu.«
31 No sooner had he finished saying all this than the ground beneath them split open,	31 A kad on završi sve te riječi, tlo se pod njima raspukne;
32 and the earth opened its mouth and swallowed them and their families (and all of Korah's men) and all their possessions.	32 zemlja rastvori svoje ralje i proguta ih s njihovim domovima, sa svim Korahovim ljudima i svim njihovim imanjem.
33 They went down alive to the nether world with all belonging to them; the earth closed over them, and they perished from the community.	33 Živi siđu u Šeol, oni i sve njihovo. Onda se nad njima zemlja zatvori i oni iščeznu iz zbora.
34 But all the Israelites near them fled at their shrieks, saying, "The earth might swallow us too!"	34 Na njihov vrisak svi Izraelci što su stajali oko njih pobjegoše govoreći: »Da i nas zemlja ne proguta!«
35 So they withdrew from the space around the Dwelling (of Korah, Dathan and Abiram). And fire from the LORD came forth which consumed the two hundred and fifty men who were offering the incense.	35 Ali sukne oganj od Jahve te proždre dvjesta i pedeset ljudi koji su prinosili tamjan.
