Deuteronomy 1

NEW AMERICAN BIBLE	Biblija Hrvatski
1 These are the words which Moses spoke to all Israel beyond the Jordan ( in the desert, in the Arabah, opposite Suph, between Paran and Tophel, Laban, Hazeroth and Dizahab;	1 Ovo su riječi što ih je Mojsije upravio svemu Izraelu s onu stranu Jordana – u pustinji, u Arabi nasuprot Sufu, između Parana i Tofela, Labana, Hazerota i Di Zahaba –
2 it is a journey of eleven days from Horeb to Kadesh-barnea by way of the highlands of Seir).	2 od Horeba do Kadeš Barnee, Seirskom gorom, jedanaest dana hoda.
3 In the fortieth year, on the first day of the eleventh month, Moses spoke to the Israelites all the commands that the LORD had given him in their regard.	3 Bilo je to godine četrdesete, prvog dana mjeseca jedanaestoga, kad Mojsije reče Izraelcima sve što mu je Jahve za njih naređivao.
4 After he had defeated Sihon, king of the Amorites, who lived in Heshbon, and Og, king of Bashan, who lived in Ashtaroth and in Edrei,	4 Pošto je porazio amorejskoga kralja Sihona, koji je živio u Hešbonu, i bašanskoga kralja Oga, koji je živio u Aštarotu i Edreju,
5 Moses began to explain the law in the land of Moab beyond the Jordan, as follows:	5 dakle s onu stranu Jordana, u zemlji moapskoj, poče Mojsije razlagati ovaj zakon. Govoraše on:
6 "The LORD, our God, said to us at Horeb, 'You have stayed long enough at this mountain.	6 »Jahve, Bog naš, reče nam na Horebu: ‘Dosta ste boravili na ovome brdu.
7 Leave here and go to the hill country of the Amorites and to all the surrounding regions, the land of the Canaanites in the Arabah, the mountains, the foothills, the Negeb and the seacoast; to Lebanon, and as far as the Great River (the Euphrates).	7 Krenite na put! Idite u gorski kraj Amorejaca i svih njihovih susjeda, u Arabu, u Gorje, u Šefelu i u Negeb, na morsku obalu, u zemlju kanaansku i u Libanon, sve do Velike rijeke, rijeke Eufrata.
8 I have given that land over to you. Go now and occupy the land I swore to your fathers, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, I would give to them and to their descendants.'	8 Eto, pred vas stavljam ovu zemlju. Idite, dakle, i zauzmite zemlju za koju se Jahve zakle ocima vašim, Abrahamu, Izaku i Jakovu, da će je dati njima i njihovu potomstvu poslije njih.’«
9 "At that time I said to you, 'Alone, I am unable to carry you.	9 »Tada sam vam rekao: ‘Ne mogu vas voditi sâm.
10 The LORD, your God, has so multiplied you that you are now as numerous as the stars in the sky.	10 Jahve, Bog vaš, toliko vas je razmnožio da vas danas ima kao zvijezda na nebu.
11 May the LORD, the God of your fathers, increase you a thousand times over, and bless you as he promised!	11 Neka vas Jahve, Bog vaših otaca, umnoži još tisuću puta! Neka vas blagoslivlja kako vam je obećao!
12 But how can I alone bear the crushing burden that you are, along with your bickering?	12 Ali kako bih ja sâm mogao nositi vaš teret, vaše breme i vaše sporove?
13 Choose wise, intelligent and experienced men from each of your tribes, that I may appoint them as your leaders.'	13 Izaberite stoga iz svojih plemena ljude pametne, iskusne i ugledne da vam ih postavim za poglavare.’
14 You answered me, 'We agree to do as you have proposed.'	14 Vi ste mi odgovorili: ‘Dobro je što predlažeš.’
15 So I took outstanding men of your tribes, wise and experienced, and made them your leaders as officials over thousands, over hundreds, over fifties and over tens, and other tribal officers.	15 Zato sam uzeo prvake iz vaših plemena, ljude pametne i ugledne, te ih postavio za poglavare: tisućnike, stotnike, pedesetnike, desetnike i vaše plemenske nadglednike.
16 I charged your judges at that time, 'Listen to complaints among your kinsmen, and administer true justice to both parties even if one of them is an alien.	16 U to isto vrijeme naložio sam i vašim sucima: ‘Saslušajte svoju braću; sudite pravedno između čovjeka i njegova brata ili pridošlice.
17 In rendering judgment, do not consider who a person is; give ear to the lowly and to the great alike, fearing no man, for judgment is God's. Refer to me any case that is too hard for you and I will hear it.'	17 U suđenju nemojte biti pristrani; saslušavajte maloga kao i velikoga. Ne bojte se nikoga! Ta sud je Božji! Ako vam koji slučaj bude pretežak, iznesite ga meni, da ga ja razvidim.’
18 Thereupon I gave you all the commands you were to fulfill.	18 Tako sam vam onda naložio sve što vam je činiti.«
19 "Then, in obedience to the command of the LORD, our God, we set out from Horeb and journeyed through the whole desert, vast and fearful as you have seen, in the direction of the hill country of the Amorites. We had reached Kadesh-barnea	19 »Krenusmo iz Horeba i, na putu u gorske krajeve Amorejaca, kako nam je naredio Jahve, Bog naš, prijeđosmo svu onu veliku i strašnu pustinju koju ste vidjeli. Stigosmo u Kadeš Barneu.
20 when I said to you, 'You have come to the hill country of the Amorites, which the LORD, our God, is giving us.	20 Tada vam rekoh: ‘Došli ste u gorski kraj Amorejaca, koji nam Jahve, Bog naš, daje.
21 The LORD, your God, has given this land over to you. Go up and occupy it, as the LORD, the God of your fathers, commands you. Do not fear or lose heart.'	21 Eto, Jahve, Bog tvoj, stavio je preda te tu zemlju. Ustaj! Zaposjedni je, kako ti je rekao Jahve, Bog otaca tvojih. Ne boj se! Ne strahuj!’
22 Then all of you came up to me and said, 'Let us send men ahead to reconnoiter the land for us and report to us on the road we must follow and the cities we must take.'	22 Svi ste onda došli k meni i rekli: ‘Pošaljimo pred sobom ljude da izvide zemlju i jave nam o putu kojim ćemo ići i o gradovima u koje ćemo doći.’
23 Agreeing with the proposal, I chose twelve men from your number, one from each tribe.	23 Svidje mi se što rekoste. Zato uzeh dvanaest ljudi između vas, po jednoga iz svakog plemena.
24 They set out into the hill country as far as the Wadi Eshcol, and explored it.	24 Krenuli su na pogorje, stigli do Eškolske doline te izvidjeli kraj.
25 Then, taking along some of the fruit of the land, they brought it down to us and reported, 'The land which the LORD, our God, gives us is good.'	25 I nabraše plodova one zemlje, donesoše ih k nama i javiše: ‘Zemlja koju nam daje Jahve, Bog naš, dobra je.’
26 "But you refused to go up, and after defying the command of the LORD, your God,	26 Ali vi niste htjeli onamo; pobunili ste se protiv naredbe Jahve, Boga svoga.
27 you set to murmuring in your tents, 'Out of hatred for us the LORD has brought us up out of the land of Egypt, to deliver us into the hands of the Amorites and destroy us.	27 Rogoborili ste u svojim šatorima i govorili: ‘U svojoj mržnji na nas Jahve nas je izveo iz zemlje egipatske da nas preda u ruke Amorejaca, kako bi nas posve uništili.
28 What shall we meet with up there? Our kinsmen have made us fainthearted by reporting that the people are stronger and taller than we, and their cities are large and fortified to the sky; besides, they saw the Anakim there.'	28 Kamo da idemo? Naša su braća ubila u nama srčanost kad rekoše: Narod je i veći i jači nego mi; gradovi su veliki, i zidine im sežu do nebesa. A vidjeli smo ondje i Anakovce.’
29 "But I said to you, 'Have no dread or fear of them.	29 ‘Ne bojte se!’ – rekoh vam. – ‘Ne plašite ih se!
30 The LORD, your God, who goes before you, will himself fight for you, just as he took your part before your very eyes in Egypt,	30 Jahve, Bog vaš, koji ide pred vama, borit će se za vas kako je to učinio na vaše oči u Egiptu.’
31 as well as in the desert, where you saw how the LORD, your God, carried you, as a man carries his child, all along your journey until you arrived at this place.'	31 A vidio si, uostalom, i u pustinji, gdje te Jahve, Bog tvoj, cijeloga puta što ste ga prevalili dok ste stigli do ovoga mjesta, nosio kao što čovjek nosi svoga sinčića.
32 Despite this, you would not trust the LORD, your God,	32 Ali, unatoč tome, vi niste imali pouzdanja u Jahvu, Boga svoga,
33 who journeys before you to find you a resting place--by day in the cloud, and by night in the fire, to show the way you must go.	33 u onoga koji je na putu išao pred vama da vam potraži mjesto za taborovanje – u ognju obnoć da vam osvijetli put kojim ćete ići, a obdan u oblaku.
34 When the LORD heard your words, he was angry;	34 Jahve ču graju vašu i zakle se u svojoj srdžbi:
35 and he swore, 'Not one man of this evil generation shall look upon the good land I swore to give to your fathers,	35 ‘Ni jedan jedini od ovih ljudi, od ovoga opakog naraštaja, neće vidjeti ove dobre zemlje za koju sam se zakleo da ću je dati vašim ocima.
36 except Caleb, son of Jephunneh; he shall see it. For to him and to his sons I will give the land he trod upon, because he has followed the LORD unreservedly.'	36 Izuzimam Kaleba, sina Jefuneova. On će je vidjeti; njemu i njegovim potomcima dat ću zemlju kojom je išao, jer je vjerno slijedio Jahvu.’
37 "The LORD was angered against me also on your account, and said, 'Not even you shall enter there,	37 Zbog vas se Jahve i na mene razljutio te mi rekao: ‘Ni ti onamo nećeš ući.
38 but your aide Joshua, son of Nun, shall enter. Encourage him, for he is to give Israel its heritage.	38 Ući će onamo Jošua, sin Nunov, koji te služi. Njega ti osokoli, jer će on uvesti Izraela u posjed.
39 Your little ones, who you said would become booty, and your children, who as yet do not know good from bad--they shall enter; to them I will give it, and they shall occupy it.	39 A i vaši mališani, o kojima rekoste da će postati roblje, sinovi vaši koji još ne znaju razlikovati dobro i zlo, oni će u nju ući; njima ću je u posjed dati.
40 But as for yourselves: turn about and proceed into the desert on the Red Sea road.'	40 A vi se okrenite i zaputite u pustinju, prema Crvenome moru!’
41 "In reply you said to me, 'We have sinned against the LORD. We will go up ourselves and fight, just as the LORD, our God, commanded us.' And each of you girded on his weapons, making light of going up into the hill country.	41 Vi ste mi tada odgovorili riječima: ‘Sagriješili smo protiv Jahve. Poći ćemo gore i boriti se kako nam je Jahve, Bog naš, zapovjedio.’ Svaki od vas dohvati svoje oružje i nepromišljeno pođe gore u brda.
42 But the LORD said to me, 'Warn them: Do not go up and fight, lest you be beaten down before your enemies, for I will not be in your midst.'	42 Onda mi Jahve reče: ‘Kaži im: Ne idite gore i ne stupajte u borbu da vas ne poraze vaši neprijatelji jer ja nisam među vama.’
43 I gave you this warning but you would not listen. In defiance of the LORD'S command you arrogantly marched off into the hill country.	43 Tako sam vam i govorio, ali niste poslušali. Oprli ste se zapovijedi Jahvinoj i, puni drskosti, krenuli u brda.
44 Then the Amorites living there came out against you and, like bees, chased you, cutting you down in Seir as far as Hormah.	44 Ali Amorejci, koji žive u onome gorju, udariše na vas, pognaše vas, za vama se natisnuše kao pčele te su vas tukli od Seira do Horme.
45 On your return you wept before the LORD, but he did not listen to your cry or give ear to you.	45 Vrativši se, plakali ste pred Jahvom, ali Jahve nije slušao vašega jauka niti je okrenuo svoga uha k vama.
46 That is why you had to stay as long as you did at Kadesh.	46 U Kadešu vam valjade ostati dugo vremena, onoliko koliko ste već ostali.«
