Józua 22:23

Bible kralická

Jistě žeť jsme nestavěli sobě oltáře k tomu, abychom se odvrátiti měli a nejíti za Hospodinem, ani k obětování na něm zápalů a obětí suchých, a k obětování na něm obětí pokojných, sic jináč Hospodin sám ať to vyhledává.

Parallel Translations

Český ekumenický překlad
Jestliže jsme si zbudovali oltář, abychom se odvrátili od Hospodina, abychom na něm obětovali oběti zápalné a přídavné nebo připravovali při něm hody oběti pokojné, ať zakročí sám Hospodin!

Gill's Notes on the Bible

That we have built us an altar, to turn from following the Lord,.... That is, we desire, as we deserve, to be cut to pieces, and not saved, if it should appear to be our view, in building this altar, to revolt from the pure worship of God:

or if to offer thereon burnt offering, or meat offering, or if to offer peace offerings; even to the Lord himself: they declare that as they had no design to apostatize from God, and worship idols, so it was not their intention to offer any kind of sacrifice on the altar they had built, even to the Lord himself; and they take notice of every kind of offering, to remove every charge of this sort from them, and to purge themselves of every imputation of this nature: then

let the Lord himself require [it]; seek it out, who is the omniscient God, and revenge it, who is the Lord God Almighty, just and true.
