< Jošua 11 >

1 Kad je sve to čuo Jabin, kralj od Hasora, obavijesti Jobaba, kralja od Madona, i kralja od Šimrona, i kralja od Akšafa,
And it came to pass, when Jabin king of Hazor had heard those things, that he sent to Jobab king of Madon, and to the king of Shimron, and to the king of Achshaph,
2 i kraljeve na sjeveru, u Gorju, i u Arabi južno od Kinereta, i u Šefeli, i na uzvišicama Dora prema moru;
And to the kings that were on the north of the mountains, and of the plains south of Chinneroth, and in the valley, and in the borders of Dor on the west,
3 Kanaance na istoku i zapadu, Amorejce, Hetite, Perižane i Jebusejce u planinama, Hivijce pod Hermonom u zemlji Mispi.
And to the Canaanite on the east and on the west, and to the Amorite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, and the Jebusite in the mountains, and to the Hivite under Hermon in the land of Mizpeh.
4 Svi oni izađu sa svim svojim četama, s mnoštvom što ga bijaše kao pijeska na obali morskoj i s mnogim konjima i kolima.
And they went out, they and all their hosts with them, much people, even as the sand that is upon the sea shore in multitude, with horses and chariots very many.
5 Udruže se, dakle, svi ti kraljevi i utabore se zajedno na vodama Meroma da se bore protiv Izraela.
And when all these kings were met together, they came and pitched together at the waters of Merom, to fight against Israel.
6 Tada Jahve reče Jošui: “Ne boj se njih, jer ću sutra u ovo doba učiniti te će svi biti pobijeni pred Izraelom; konje njihove osakati, a bojna im kola ognjem spali.”
And the LORD said unto Joshua, Be not afraid because of them: in order to morrow about this time will I deliver them up all slain before Israel: you shall cut the hamstrings of their horses, and burn their chariots with fire.
7 Jošua povede na njih sve svoje ratnike, iznenada ih napade na vodama Meroma i udari na njih.
So Joshua came, and all the people of war with him, against them by the waters of Merom suddenly; and they fell upon them.
8 I Jahve ih dade u ruke Izraelcima te ih oni pobiše i protjeraše sve do Velikog Sidona i do Misrefot Majima i do ravnice Mispe na istoku; i poraziše ih tako te nitko ne preživje.
And the LORD delivered them into the hand of Israel, who stroke them, and chased them unto great Zidon, and unto Misrephothmaim, and unto the valley of Mizpeh eastward; and they stroke them, until they left them none remaining.
9 Jošua učini kako mu je Jahve zapovjedio: konje im osakati, a kola im ognjem spali.
And Joshua did unto them as the LORD bade him: he cut the hamstrings of their horses, and burnt their chariots with fire.
10 U to se vrijeme vrati Jošua i zauze Hasor, a njegova kralja pogubi mačem. Hasor je nekoć bio glavni grad svima tim kraljevstvima.
And Joshua at that time turned back, and took Hazor, and stroke the king thereof with the sword: for Hazor in time past was the head of all those kingdoms.
11 Pobili su sve oštricom mača, izvršujući “herem”, kletvu. Ne ostade ništa živo, a Hasor spališe ognjem.
And they stroke all the souls that were therein with the edge of the sword, utterly destroying them: there was not any left to breathe: and he burnt Hazor with fire.
12 Sve gradove onih kraljeva pokori Jošua i pobi kraljeve oštricom mača, izvršujući “herem”, kletvu, kao što je bio zapovjedio Mojsije, sluga Jahvin.
And all the cities of those kings, and all the kings of them, did Joshua take, and stroke them with the edge of the sword, and he utterly destroyed them, as Moses the servant of the LORD commanded.
13 Od ostalih gradova koji se dizahu na svojim brežuljcima Izraelci nisu spalili ni jednoga, osim Hasora, koji spali Jošua.
But as for the cities that stood still in their strength, Israel burned none of them, save Hazor only; that did Joshua burn.
14 Sav plijen iz tih gradova i stoku razdijeliše sinovi Izraelovi među sobom, a sve ljude pobiše oštricom mača, istrijebiše ih i ni žive duše ne ostade.
And all the spoil of these cities, and the cattle, the children of Israel took for a prey unto themselves; but every man they stroke with the edge of the sword, until they had destroyed them, neither left they any to breathe.
15 Sve što Jahve bijaše zapovjedio svome sluzi Mojsiju, zapovjedio je Mojsije Jošui, a Jošua sve izvršio, ne izostavivši ništa od svega što Jahve bijaše zapovjedio Mojsiju.
As the LORD commanded Moses his servant, so did Moses command Joshua, and so did Joshua; he left nothing undone of all that the LORD commanded Moses.
16 Tako je Jošua zauzeo svu zemlju: Gorje, sav Negeb i svu zemlju Gošen, Šefelu, Arabu, Izraelsko gorje i njegove brežuljke,
So Joshua took all that land, the hills, and all the south country, and all the land of Goshen, and the valley, and the plain, and the mountain of Israel, and the valley of the same;
17 od gore Halaka, koja se diže prema Seiru, pa do Baal Gada, u ravnici libanonskoj pod gorom Hermonom; zarobio je sve njihove kraljeve, pobio ih i pogubio.
Even from the mount Halak, that goes up to Seir, even unto Baalgad in the valley of Lebanon under mount Hermon: and all their kings he took, and stroke them, and slew them.
18 Dugo je vremena ratovao Jošua s tim kraljevima.
Joshua made war a long time with all those kings.
19 Nije bilo ni jednoga grada koji je sklopio mir s sinovima Izraelovim, osim Hivijaca, koji su živjeli u Gibeonu: sve ih zauzeše ratom.
There was not a city that made peace with the children of Israel, save the Hivites the inhabitants of Gibeon: all other they took in battle.
20 Jahve im bijaše otvrdnuo srca te su izašli u boj protiv Izraela i pali pod “herem”, kletvu bez smilovanja, da budu istrijebljeni, kako je to Jahve bio zapovjedio Mojsiju.
For it was of the LORD to harden their hearts, that they should come against Israel in battle, that he might destroy them utterly, and that they might have no favour, but that he might destroy them, as the LORD commanded Moses.
21 U ono vrijeme dođe Jošua i istrijebi Anakovce iz Gorja, iz Hebrona, iz Debira, iz Anaba, iz svega gorja Judina i iz svega gorja Izraelova: predade ih “heremu”, uništenju, njih i sve njihove gradove.
And at that time came Joshua, and cut off the Anakims from the mountains, from Hebron, from Debir, from Anab, and from all the mountains of Judah, and from all the mountains of Israel: Joshua destroyed them utterly with their cities.
22 Tako ne ostade nijedan Anakovac u svoj zemlji sinova Izraelovih, osim u Gazi, u Gatu i Ašdodu.
There was none of the Anakims left in the land of the children of Israel: only in Gaza, in Gath, and in Ashdod, there remained.
23 Jošua zauze svu zemlju, kao što je Jahve bio rekao Mojsiju, i dade je u baštinu Izraelu podijelivši je po plemenima. I konačno zemlja počinu od rata.
So Joshua took the whole land, according to all that the LORD said unto Moses; and Joshua gave it for an inheritance unto Israel according to their divisions by their tribes. And the land rested from war.
