¹These be the words which Moses spake unto all Israel on this side Jordan in the wilderness, in the plain over against the Red sea, between Paran, and Tophel, and Laban, and Hazeroth, and Dizahab.

¹Toto sú slová, ktoré hovoril Mojžiš celému Izraelovi za Jordánom na púšti, na rovine naproti Červenému moru, medzi Fáranom a Tofelom, medzi Lábanom a Chacerótom a medzi Dí-zahábom.

²(There are eleven days' journey from Horeb by the way of mount Seir unto Kadeshbarnea.)

²Je to jedenásť dní cesty od Horeba cestou cez vrch Seir po Kádeš-barneu.

³And it came to pass in the fortieth year, in the eleventh month, on the first day of the month, that Moses spake unto the children of Israel, according unto all that the LORD had given him in commandment unto them;

³A stalo sa štyridsiateho roku, jedenásteho mesiaca, prvého dňa toho mesiaca, že hovoril Mojžiš synom Izraelovým všetko, čo mu prikázal Hospodin o nich,

⁴After he had slain Sihon the king of the Amorites, which dwelt in Heshbon, and Og the king of Bashan, which dwelt at Astaroth in Edrei:

⁴potom, keď už bol porazil Síchona, amorejského kráľa, ktorý býval v Chešbone, a Óga, bázanského kráľa, ktorý býval v Aštaróte, v Edrei.

⁵On this side Jordan, in the land of Moab, began Moses to declare this law, saying,

⁵Za Jordánom, v Moábskej zemi, začal Mojžiš vysvetľovať tento zákon a povedal:

⁶The LORD our God spake unto us in Horeb, saying, Ye have dwelt long enough in this mount:

⁶Hospodin, náš Bôh, nám hovoril na Horebe a riekol takto: Už ste sa dosť nabývali na tomto vrchu.

⁷Turn you, and take your journey, and go to the mount of the Amorites, and unto all the places nigh thereunto, in the plain, in the hills, and in the vale, and in the south, and by the sea side, to the land of the Canaanites, and unto Lebanon, unto the great river, the river Euphrates.

⁷Obráťte sa, rušajte sa a vojdite do vrchov Amoreja a na všetky jeho súsedné miesta na rovine, na vrchu a na nížine, na juhu a na pobreží mora, do zeme Kananeja a k Libanonu až po veľkú rieku, po rieku Eufrates.

⁸Behold, I have set the land before you: go in and possess the land which the LORD sware unto your fathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, to give unto them and to their seed after them.

⁸Vidz, dal som zem pred vami! Vojdite a zaujmite zem dedične, o ktorej prisahal Hospodin vašim otcom, Abrahámovi, Izákovi a Jakobovi, že ju dá im a ich semenu po nich. -

⁹And I spake unto you at that time, saying, I am not able to bear you myself alone:

⁹A povedal som vám toho času: Nemôžem vás samotný uniesť.

¹⁰The LORD your God hath multiplied you, and, behold, ye are this day as the stars of heaven for multitude.

¹⁰Hospodin, váš Bôh, vás rozmnožil, že hľa, je vás dnes čo do množstva jako hviezd na nebi.

¹¹(The LORD God of your fathers make you a thousand times so many more as ye are, and bless you, as he hath promised you!)

¹¹Hospodin, Bôh vašich otcov, nech ráči pridať k vám ešte tisíckrát toľko, koľko vás je, a nech vás požehná, tak ako hovoril o vás.

¹²How can I myself alone bear your cumbrance, and your burden, and your strife?

¹²Akože ponesiem samotný vašu ťarchu, vaše bremä a vašu zvadu?!

¹³Take you wise men, and understanding, and known among your tribes, and I will make them rulers over you.

¹³Vyberte si mužov, múdrych, rozumných a známych, zo svojich pokolení, a ustanovím ich za hlavy nad vami.

¹⁴And ye answered me, and said, The thing which thou hast spoken is good for us to do.

¹⁴A na to ste mi odpovedali a riekli ste: 'To je dobrá vec, o ktorej hovoríš, aby sme ju učinili.

¹⁵So I took the chief of your tribes, wise men, and known, and made them heads over you, captains over thousands, and captains over hundreds, and captains over fifties, and captains over tens, and officers among your tribes.

¹⁵A tedy som vzal hlavy vašich pokolení, mužov to múdrych a známych, a dal som ich za hlavy nad vami, za náčelníkov nad tisícami, za náčelníkov nad stami, za náčelníkov nad päťdesiatimi a za náčelníkov nad desiatimi a za správcov vašich pokolení.

¹⁶And I charged your judges at that time, saying, Hear the causes between your brethren, and judge righteously between every man and his brother, and the stranger that is with him.

¹⁶A prikázal som vašim sudcom toho času povediac: Vypočuť obe strany svojich bratov a budete súdiť spravedlivo medzi človekom a medzi jeho bratom a medzi jeho pohostínom.

¹⁷Ye shall not respect persons in judgment; but ye shall hear the small as well as the great; ye shall not be afraid of the face of man; for the judgment is God's: and the cause that is too hard for you, bring it unto me, and I will hear it.

¹⁷Nebudete hľadieť v súde na osobu, ale vypočujete ako malého tak veľkého, nebudete sa báť nikoho, lebo súd je Boží. A vec, ktorá by vám bola priťažká, donesiete ku mne, a ja ju vypočujem.

¹⁸And I commanded you at that time all the things which ye should do.

¹⁸A toho času som vám prikázal všetky veci, ktoré máte činiť.

¹⁹And when we departed from Horeb, we went through all that great and terrible wilderness, which ye saw by the way of the mountain of the Amorites, as the LORD our God commanded us; and we came to Kadeshbarnea.

¹⁹Potom sme sa rušali od Horeba a prešli sme celú tú púšť, veľkú a strašnú, ktorú ste videli, cestou k vrchu Amoreja, tak ako nám prikázal Hospodin, náš Bôh, a prišli sme až do Kádeš-barnee.

²⁰And I said unto you, Ye are come unto the mountain of the Amorites, which the LORD our God doth give unto us.

²⁰A povedal som vám: Prišli ste až po vrch Amoreja, ktorý nám dá Hospodin, náš Bôh.

²¹Behold, the LORD thy God hath set the land before thee: go up and possess it, as the LORD God of thy fathers hath said unto thee; fear not, neither be discouraged.

²¹Nože vidz, Hospodin, tvoj Bôh, dal pred tebou zem, vyjdi hore a zaujmi dedične, tak ako hovoril Hospodin, Bôh tvojich otcov, o tebe. Neboj sa ani sa nestrachuj!

²²And ye came near unto me every one of you, and said, We will send men before us, and they shall search us out the land, and bring us word again by what way we must go up, and into what cities we shall come.

²²Potom ste prišli ku mne všetci a povedali ste: Pošlime mužov pred sebou, ktorí nám prezkúmajú zem a podajú nám zprávu, aj o ceste, ktorou máme ísť hore do nej, ako aj o mestách, ku ktorým prijdeme.

²³And the saying pleased me well: and I took twelve men of you, one of a tribe:

²³To slovo sa mi ľúbilo, a vzal som z vás dvanástich mužov, po jednom mužovi z každého pokolenia.

²⁴And they turned and went up into the mountain, and came unto the valley of Eshcol, and searched it out.

²⁴A obrátiac sa išli hore na vrchy a prišli až po dolinu Eškol a prešpehovali zem.

²⁵And they took of the fruit of the land in their hands, and brought it down unto us, and brought us word again, and said, It is a good land which the LORD our God doth give us.

²⁵A vzali so sebou z ovocia zeme a doniesli dolu k nám a podali nám zprávu a povedali: Je to dobrá zem, ktorú nám dá Hospodin, náš Bôh.

²⁶Notwithstanding ye would not go up, but rebelled against the commandment of the LORD your God:

²⁶Avšak nechceli ste ísť hore, ale vzbúrili ste sa proti rozkazu Hospodina, svojho Boha,

²⁷And ye murmured in your tents, and said, Because the LORD hated us, he hath brought us forth out of the land of Egypt, to deliver us into the hand of the Amorites, to destroy us.

²⁷a reptali ste vo svojich stánoch a povedali ste: Preto, že nás nenávidí Hospodin, preto nás vyviedol z Egyptskej zeme, aby nás vydal do ruky Amoreja, aby nás zahladil.

²⁸Whither shall we go up? our brethren have discouraged our heart, saying, The people is greater and taller than we; the cities are great and walled up to heaven; and moreover we have seen the sons of the Anakims there.

²⁸Kam pojdeme hore? Naši bratia veľmi zmalátnili naše srdce hovoriac: Je to veľký ľud a vyšší, ako sme my; a mestá sú veľké a ohradené až do neba, ba ešte aj synov Enákových sme tam videli.

²⁹Then I said unto you, Dread not, neither be afraid of them.

²⁹A povedal som vám: Nedeste sa ani sa ich nebojte.

³⁰The LORD your God which goeth before you, he shall fight for you, according to all that he did for you in Egypt before your eyes;

³⁰Hospodin, váš Bôh, ktorý ide pred vami, on bude bojovať za vás, zrovna tak, ako učinil s vami v Egypte pred vašimi očami,

³¹And in the wilderness, where thou hast seen how that the LORD thy God bare thee, as a man doth bear his son, in all the way that ye went, until ye came into this place.

³¹i na púšti, kde si videl, že ťa niesol Hospodin, tvoj Bôh, ako nosieva človek svojho syna, na celej ceste, ktorou ste išli, až ste i prišli na toto miesto.

³²Yet in this thing ye did not believe the LORD your God,

³²Ale ani v tejto veci neverili ste Hospodinovi, svojmu Bohu,

³³Who went in the way before you, to search you out a place to pitch your tents in, in fire by night, to show you by what way ye should go, and in a cloud by day.

³³ktorý išiel pred vami cestou, aby vám vyhľadal miesto, kde by ste sa mohli rozložiť táborom, vnoci v ohni, aby vám ukazoval cestu, ktorou ste mali ísť, a v oblaku vodne.

³⁴And the LORD heard the voice of your words, and was wroth, and sware, saying,

³⁴A Hospodin počul hlas vašich rečí a rozhneval sa a prisahal povediac:

³⁵Surely there shall not one of these men of this evil generation see that good land, which I sware to give unto your fathers.

³⁵Prisahám, že niktorý z týchto mužov, toto zlé pokolenie, neuvidí tej krásnej zeme dobrej, o ktorej som prisahal, že ju dám vašim otcom,

³⁶Save Caleb the son of Jephunneh; he shall see it, and to him will I give the land that he hath trodden upon, and to his children, because he hath wholly followed the LORD.

³⁶krome Kálefa, syna Jefunneho; ten ju uvidí, a jemu dám zem, po ktorej chodil, i jeho synom, pretože cele nasledoval Hospodina.

³⁷Also the LORD was angry with me for your sakes, saying, Thou also shalt not go in thither.

³⁷Ešte i na mňa sa nahneval Hospodin pre vás a riekol: Ani ty ta nevojdeš!

³⁸But Joshua the son of Nun, which standeth before thee, he shall go in thither: encourage him: for he shall cause Israel to inherit it.

³⁸Jozua, syn Núnov, ktorý stojí pred tebou, ten ta vojde; jeho posilni, lebo on ju rozdelí Izraelovi do dedičstva.

³⁹Moreover your little ones, which ye said should be a prey, and your children, which in that day had no knowledge between good and evil, they shall go in thither, and unto them will I give it, and they shall possess it.

³⁹A vaše deti, o ktorých ste povedali, že budú za lúpež, a vaši synovia, ktorí ešte dneská nevedia, čo je dobré a čo zlé, tí ta vojdú, a im ju dám, a oni ju zdedia.

⁴⁰But as for you, turn you, and take your journey into the wilderness by the way of the Red sea.

⁴⁰A vy sa obráťte a rušajte sa na púšť cestou smerom k Červenému moru.

⁴¹Then ye answered and said unto me, We have sinned against the LORD, we will go up and fight, according to all that the LORD our God commanded us. And when ye had girded on every man his weapons of war, ye were ready to go up into the hill.

⁴¹Na to ste mi odpovedali: Zhrešili sme proti Hospodinovi, my pojdeme hore a budeme bojovať celkom tak, ako nám prikázal Hospodin, náš Bôh. A opásali ste si každý svoju vojennú zbraň a majúc to za ľahkú vec išli ste hore na vrch.

⁴²And the LORD said unto me, Say unto them. Go not up, neither fight; for I am not among you; lest ye be smitten before your enemies.

⁴²Ale Hospodin mi riekol: Povedz im: Nechoďte hore a nebojujte, lebo nie som medzi vami, aby ste neboli porazení pred svojimi nepriateľmi.

⁴³So I spake unto you; and ye would not hear, but rebelled against the commandment of the LORD, and went presumptuously up into the hill.

⁴³A hovoril som vám to, a neposlúchli ste, ale ste sa sprotivili rozkazu Hospodinovmu a v spúre ste sa odvážili a išli ste hore na vrch.

⁴⁴And the Amorites, which dwelt in that mountain, came out against you, and chased you, as bees do, and destroyed you in Seir, even unto Hormah.

⁴⁴Vtedy vyšiel Amorej, ktorý býval na tom vrchu, proti vám, a honili vás, ako robievajú včely, a zbili vás na Seire a bijúc prenasledovali až do Hormy.

⁴⁵And ye returned and wept before the LORD; but the LORD would not hearken to your voice, nor give ear unto you.

⁴⁵A keď ste sa navrátili, plakali ste pred Hospodinom, ale Hospodin neuslyšal vášho hlasu ani nenaklonil k vám svojho ucha.

⁴⁶So ye abode in Kadesh many days, according unto the days that ye abode there.

⁴⁶A tak ste bývali v Kádeši mnoho dní, toľko, koľko ste bývali.
