Basque - Testament of Dan.pdf
1.
2. 1. KAPITULUA
Jakoben eta Bilaren zazpigarren semea.
Jeloskorra. Haserrearen aurka
gomendatzen du "ikuspegi berezia
ematen duela" esanez. Hau haserreari
buruzko tesi nabarmena da.
1. Danen hitzen kopia, bere semeei bere
azken egunetan, bere bizitzako ehun eta
hogeita bostgarren urtean.
2. Zeren bildu zuen bere I familia, eta
esan zuen: Entzun itzazue ene hitzak,
Danen semeak; eta adi zure aitaren hitzei.
3. Nere bihotzean eta bizitza osoan
frogatu dut egia hori
tratu zuzena Jainkoari ona eta atsegina da,
eta gezurra eta haserrea gaiztoak dira,
zeren gizakiari gaiztakeria guztiak
irakasten baitiote.
4. Aitortzen dizuet, beraz, gaur, ene
seme-alabak, nire bihotzean erabaki
dudala Jose nere anaia, gizon egiazko eta
ona, hiltzea. .
5. Eta poztu nintzen saldu zelako, bere
aitak gu baino gehiago maite baitzuen.
6. Zeren jeloskortasunaren eta gloria
hutsalaren izpirituak esan zidan: Zu ere
bere semea zara.
7. Eta Beliarren izpirituetako batek piztu
ninduen, esanez: Har ezazu ezpata hau,
eta berarekin hil ezazu Jose: hala maite
zaitu zure aitak hildakoan.
8. Hauxe da, lehoinabar batek antxumea
zapaltzen duen bezala, Jose zapaltzera
konbentzitu ninduen haserrearen izpiritua.
9. Bainan nire arbasoen Jainkoak ez zuen
utzi nire eskuetan eror zedin, bera
bakarrik aurkitu eta hiltzeko, eta Israelen
bigarren leinu bat suntsitzeko.
10. Eta orain, ene seme-alabak, huna
hilzorian nagoela, eta egiaz erraiten
dizuet: baldin gezurrezko eta haserrezko
izpiritutik gorde ez baitzarete, eta egia
eta pazientzia maite ez zaretela, galduko
zaretela.
11. Zeren haserrea itsutasuna da, eta ez
du onartzen inoren aurpegia egiaz ikustea.
12. Zeren aita edo ama izan arren, etsai
bezala jokatzen du haiekiko; anaia izan
arren, ez du ezagutzen; Jaunaren profeta
izan arren, ez dio obeditzen; gizon
zintzoa izan arren, ez dio begiratzen;
adiskide izan arren, ez du aitortzen.
13. Zeren haserrezko izpirituak
engainuaren sarearekin inguratzen du, eta
itsutzen ditu begiak, eta gezurraren bidez
iluntzen ditu bere gogoa, eta bere
ikuskera berezia ematen dio.
14. Eta zertan biltzen ditu bere begiak?
Bihotzeko gorrotoarekin, bere anaiaren
inbidia izateko.
15. Zeren haserrea gaiztoa baita, ene
seme-alabak, arima bera ere asaldatzen
baitu.
16. Eta gizon haserrearen gorputzak bere
egiten du, eta bere arima gain hartzen du
nagusitasuna, eta gorputzari ematen dio
boterea gaiztakeria guzia egiteko.
17. Eta gorputzak gauza oiek guziak
egiten dituenean, arimak justifikatzen du
egin dena, zuzen ikusten ez baitu.
18. Beraz, hasarrezkoak, ahaltsuak badira,
hirukote indarra dauka bere haserrean:
bata bere zerbitzarien laguntzaz; eta
bigarrena bere aberastasunagatik,
zeinekin konbentzitzen eta gaiztoki
garaitzen duen; eta hirugarrenik, berezko
botere propioa izanik, gaiztakeria egiten
du.
19. Eta gizon haserrea ahula bada ere,
badu berez denaren indar bikoitza; zeren
hasarreak beti laguntzen ditu halakoak
legegabetasunean.
20. Espiritu hau beti doa Satanasen
eskuineko gezurretan, ankerkeriaz eta
gezurrez bere obrak egin daitezen.
3. 21. Badakizue, beraz, haserrearen indarra,
alferrik dela.
22. Zeren lehenik hitzez probokazioa
ematen du; gero egitez indartzen du
aserre dagoena, eta galera zorrotzekin
bere gogoa asaldatzen du, eta hala
hunkitzen du bere aserre andiarekin
arima.
23. Hortaz, norbaitek. Zure kontra
mintzatzen da, ez zaitezte haserretu, eta
baldin nehork laudatzen zaituzte santuak
bezala, ez zaitezte goratu: ez zaitezte
hunkitu ez gozatzera, ez nazkatzera.
24. Zeren lehenik entzumena atsegin du,
eta horrela gogorarazten du gogoa
probokaziorako arrazoiak hautemateko;
eta orduan haserreturik, uste du zuzenki
haserre dagoela.
25. Ene seme-alabak, galera edo
hondamen batean erortzen bazarete, ez
zaitezte atsekabetu; zeren izpiritu honek
berak desiratzen du gizona galgarri dena,
atsekabearen bidez haserre dadin.
26. Eta galera sufritzen baduzue
borondatez edo nahi gabe, ez zaitezte
haserretu; zeren atsekabetik sortzen baita
haserrea gezurretan.
27. Gainera, gaiztakeria bikoitza da
gezurraren aurkako haserrea; eta elkarri
laguntzen diote bihotza asaldatzeko; eta
arima etengabe asaldatzen denean, alde
egiten du Jaunak, eta Beliarrek
menderatzen du.
2. KAPITULUA
Bekatuen, gatibutasunaren, izurriteen eta
nazioaren azken itzuleraren profezia.
Edeneraz hitz egiten dute oraindik (Ikus
18. bertsoa). 23. bertsoa nabarmena da
profeziaren argitan.
1. Begira, beraz, ene seme-alabak,
Jaunaren manamenduak, eta bete ezazu
haren legea; alde egin aserretik, eta
gorrotatu gezurra, Jauna zure artean bizi
dadin, eta Beliarrek zuregandik ihes egin
dezan.
2 Egizue egia bakoitza bere hurkoarekin.
Beraz, ez zarete haserre eta nahasmenean
eroriko; baina bakean egongo zarete,
bakearen Jainkoa izanik, ez zaituzte
gerrarik nagusituko.
3 Maite ezazu Jauna zure bizitza osoan
zehar, eta elkar bihotz egiaz.
4. Badakit azken egunetan Jaunagandik
aldenduko zaretela, eta Lebi haserretuko
zaretela, eta Judaren kontra borrokatuko
zaretela; baina ez zarete haien aurka
gailenduko, Jaunaren aingeru batek
gidatuko baititu biak; zeren haien ondoan
geldituko da Israel.
5. Eta Jaunagandik aldentzen zaren
bakoitzean, gaitz guzietan ibiliko zarete,
eta jentilen higuingarrikeriak eginen
zarete, lege gaiztoen emakumeen atzetik
prostitua eginez, gaiztakeria guziarekin
gaiztakeriaren izpirituak zuetan jarduten
duten bitartean.
6. Zeren irakurri baitut Enok, zintzoaren
liburuan, zure printzea Satana dela, eta
gaiztakeriaren eta harrokeriaren izpiritu
guztiek konspiratuko dutela etengabe
Lebiren semeei, Jaunaren aurrean bekatu
egin dezaten.
7. Eta nire semeak Lebirengana
hurbilduko dira, eta bekatu egingo dute
gauza guztietan. eta Judako semeak
gutiziatsuak izango dira, lehoiak bezala
beste gizonen ondasunak arpilatzen
dituzte.
8. Hargatik eramanen zarete haiekin
gatibutzara, eta han jasoko dituzue
Egiptoko izurrite guztiak, eta jentilen
gaitz guziak.
4. 9. Beraz, Jaunagana itzultzen zarenean
errukia lortuko duzue, eta berak sartuko
zaituzte bere santutegira, eta bakea
emango dizu.
10. Eta sortuko zaizue Judako eta
Lebiren leinutik Jaunaren salbazioa; eta
gerra egingo du Beliarren aurka.
11. Eta egizu betiko mendekua gure
etsaien kontra; eta gatibutasunari
Beliartik kenduko ditu sainduen arimak,
eta biurtuko ditu bihotz desobedienteak
Jaunagana, eta emango die dei egiten
diotenei betiko bakea.
12. Eta sainduak Edenen atseden hartuko
dute, eta Jerusalem Berrian poztuko dira
zintzoak, eta Jainkoaren aintzarako
izango da betiko.
13. Eta ez da gehiago jasango
Jerusalemen suntsipena, ez Israel gatibu
eramango; izan ere, Jauna izango da
haren erdian [gizonen artean biziz], eta
Israelgo Santua errege izango da
apaltasunean eta pobrezian; eta beragan
sinesten duena erreñatuko da gizonen
artean egian.
14. Eta orain, ene seme-alabak, izan
zaitezte Jaunaren beldur, eta kontuz ibili
Satanaraz eta haren izpirituaz.
15. Hurbil zaitezte Jainkoarengana eta
zuen alde erregutzen duen
aingeruarengana, Jainkoaren eta
gizakiaren arteko bitartekaria baita, eta
Israelen bakerako etsaien erreinuaren
aurka altxatuko da.
16. Beraz, etsaia irrikaz dago Jaunari dei
egiten dioten guztiak suntsitzeko.
17. Zeren badaki Israel damutuko den
egunean, etsaiaren erreinua amaituko
dela.
18. Bakearen aingeruak berak indartuko
du Israel, gaitzaren muturrean eror ez
dadin.
19. Eta izango da Israelen
legegabekeriaren garaian, Jaunak ez
dituela haiengandik aldenduko, baizik eta
bere borondatea betetzen duen nazio
bihurtuko ditu, zeren aingeruetako bat ere
ez da haren parekoa izango.
20. Eta bere izena izango da Israelgo toki
guztietan eta jentilen artean.
21. Zaude, bada, ene haurrak, obra gaizto
orotarik, eta bota itzazue haserrea eta
gezur guzia, eta maita ezazue egia eta
pazientzia luzea.
22. Eta zuen aitarengandik entzun
dituzuen gauzak, zuen seme-alabei ere
ematen diezue jentilen Salbatzaileak
errezibitzeko; izan ere, egiazkoa eta
jasankorra da, apala eta apala, eta bere
obrez Jainkoaren legea irakasten du.
23. Alde, beraz, injustizia guzietatik, eta
itsatsi zaitezte Jainkoaren zuzentasunari,
eta zuen arraza salbatuko da betiko.
24. Eta ehortzi nazazu nere arbasoen
ondoan.
25. Eta gauza hauk erran zituenean, musu
eman zizkien, eta zahartzaro onean lo
hartu zuen.
26. Eta bere semeek lurperatu zuten, eta
ondoren eraman zituzten haren hezurrak,
eta ezarri zituzten Abrahamen, Isaaken
eta Jakoben ondoan.
27. Hala ere, Danek profetizatu zien
beren Jainkoa ahaztu behar zutela, eta
beren ondareko lurretik eta Israelgo
arrazatik eta beren ondorengoen
familiatik urrundu behar zirela.
