Jošua 7
1 Ali se sinovi Izraelovi teško ogriješiše o “herem”, jer je Akan, sin Karmija, sina Zabdijeva, sina Zerahova, od plemena Judina, uzeo od ukletih stvari, i Jahve se razgnjevi na sinove Izraelove.
And the sons of Israel commit a trespass in the devoted thing, and Achan, son of Carmi, son of Zabdi, son of Zerah, of the tribe of Judah, taketh of the devoted thing, and the anger of Jehovah burneth against the sons of Israel.
2 Jošua pak posla ljude iz Jerihona u Aj, koji leži istočno od Betela, i reče im: “Uziđite onamo, izvidite kraj!” Ljudi odoše te izvidješe Aj.
And Joshua sendeth men from Jericho to Ai, which [is] near Beth-Aven, on the east of Bethel, and speaketh unto them, saying, 'Go up and spy the land;' and the men go up and spy Ai,
3 Vrativši se k Jošui, rekoše mu: “Ne treba da onamo uzlazi sav narod; dvije do tri tisuće ljudi neka idu da osvoje Aj. Ne muči onamo sav narod, jer je ondje malo svijeta.”
and they turn back unto Joshua, and say unto him, 'Let not all the people go up; let about two thousand men, or about three thousand men, go up, and they smite Ai; cause not all the people to labour thither; for they [are] few.'
4 Pođe onamo oko tri tisuće ljudi od svega naroda, ali su morali pobjeći pred onima iz Aja.
And there go up of the people thither about three thousand men, and they flee before the men of Ai,
5 Ajani pobiše oko trideset i šest ljudi i tjerali su ih ispred svojih vrata do Šebarima: pobili su ih na strmini. Klonu tada srce narodu kao da mu je voda u žilama.
and the men of Ai smite of them about thirty and six men, and pursue them before the gate unto Shebarim, and they smite them in Morad; and the heart of the people is melted, and becometh water.
6 Razdrije Jošua haljine svoje i baci se ničice pred Kovčegom Jahvinim, i ostade tako do večeri, on i starješine u Izraelu, posuvši glave pepelom.
And Joshua rendeth his garments, and falleth on his face to the earth before the ark of Jehovah till the evening, he and the elders of Israel, and they cause dust to go up on their head.
7 Tada reče Jošua: “Jao, Gospode Jahve, zašto si preveo ovaj narod preko Jordana? Da nas predaš u ruke Amorejaca da nas pobiju? Kamo sreće da smo stali s onu stranu Jordana!
And Joshua saith, 'Ah, Lord Jehovah, why hast Thou at all caused this people to pass over the Jordan, to give us into the hand of the Amorite to destroy us? — and oh that we had been willing — and we dwell beyond the Jordan!
8 Oprosti, Gospode! Što drugo da rečem kad je Izrael okrenuo leđa pred svojim neprijateljima?
Oh, Lord, what do I say, after that Israel hath turned the neck before its enemies?
9 Ako to čuju Kanaanci i ostali žitelji zemlje, udružit će se protiv nas da zbrišu ime naše sa zemlje. Što ćeš, dakle, učiniti za veliko ime svoje?”
and the Canaanite and all the inhabitants of the land do hear, and have come round against us, and cut off our name out of the earth; and what dost Thou do for Thy great name?'
10 A Jahve odgovori Jošui: “Ustani! Zašto si pao ničice?
And Jehovah saith unto Joshua, 'Rise for thee, why [is] this? — thou [art] falling on thy face?
11 Izrael je sagriješio: prekršili su Savez kojim sam ih vezao. Zaista, uzeše ukleto, porobiše, posakrivaše i prisvojiše.
Israel hath sinned, and also they have transgressed My covenant which I commanded them, and also taken of the devoted thing, and also stolen, and also deceived, and also put [it] among their vessels,
12 I zato Izraelci ne mogu izdržati pred svojim neprijateljima, okreću leđa pred protivnicima jer su postali ukleti. Ja ne mogu više biti s vama ako iz svoje sredine ne maknete proklete.
and the sons of Israel have not been able to stand before their enemies; the neck they turn before their enemies, for they have become a devoted thing; I add not to be with you — if ye destroy not the devoted thing out of your midst.
13 Ustani! Sazovi narod na posvećenje i reci mu: Posvetite se za sutra, jer ovako govori Jahve, Bog Izraelov: 'Kletva je u tebi, Izraele; i nećeš izdržati pred svojim neprijateljima sve dok ne odstranite kletvu iz svoje sredine.'
'Rise, sanctify the people, and thou hast said, Sanctify yourselves for to-morrow; for thus said Jehovah, God of Israel, A devoted thing [is] in thy midst, O Israel, thou art not able to stand before thine enemies till your turning aside of the devoted thing out of your midst;
14 Zato sutra zorom pristupite pleme za plemenom; iz plemena koje odredi Jahve prići će rod za rodom, a onda iz roda koji označi Jahve pristupit će obitelj po obitelj, a iz obitelji koju označi Jahve pristupit će čovjek za čovjekom.
and ye have been brought near in the morning by your tribes, and it hath been, the tribe which Jehovah doth capture doth draw near by families, and the family which Jehovah doth capture doth draw near by households, and the household which Jehovah doth capture doth draw near by men;
15 I tko se tada nađe s ukletom stvari, neka se spali on i sve što mu pripada, jer je prekršio Savez Jahvin i osramotio Izraela.”
and it hath been, he who is captured with the devoted thing is burnt with fire, he and all that he hath, because he hath transgressed the covenant of Jehovah, and because he hath done folly in Israel.'
16 Urani Jošua ujutro i pozva Izraela po plemenima; pristupiše i otkri se pleme Judino.
And Joshua riseth early in the morning, and bringeth Israel near by its tribes, and the tribe of Judah is captured;
17 Potom pristupi rod za rodom iz plemena Judina i pronađe se rod Zerahov. Pristupiše obitelji roda Zerahova, domaćin jedan za drugim, i pronađoše obitelj Zabdijevu.
and he bringeth near the family of Judah, and he captureth the family of the Zarhite; and he bringeth near the family of the Zarhite by men, and Zabdi is captured;
18 Naposljetku naredi Jošua da pristupi obitelj Zabdijeva, muškarac jedan za drugim, i pronašao se Akan, sin Karmija, sina Zabdijeva, sina Zerahova, od plemena Judina.
and he bringeth near his household by men, and Achan — son of Carmi, son of Zabdi, son of Zerah, of the tribe of Judah — is captured.
19 Tada reče Jošua Akanu: “Sine moj, daj slavu Jahvi, Bogu Izraelovu, i priznaj mu što si učinio; objasni što si učinio i nemoj mi ništa tajiti.”
And Joshua saith unto Achan, 'My son, put, I pray thee, honour on Jehovah, God of Israel, and give to Him thanks, and declare, I pray thee, to me, what thou hast done — hide not from me.'
20 Akan reče Jošui: “Zaista, ja sagriješih Jahvi, Bogu Izraelovu, i evo što sam učinio:
And Achan answereth Joshua, and saith, 'Truly I have sinned against Jehovah, God of Israel, and thus and thus I have done;
21 vidjeh u plijenu lijep šinearski plašt, dvije stotine srebrnjaka i zlatnu šipku vrijednu pedeset srebrnjaka, pa se polakomih i uzeh sebi. Eno je sve zakopano usred moga šatora, a srebro je odozdo.”
and I see among the spoil a goodly robe of Shinar, and two hundred shekels of silver, and one wedge of gold, whose weight [is] fifty shekels, and I desire them, and take them; and lo, they [are] hid in the earth, in the midst of my tent, and the silver under it.'
22 Tada uputi Jošua poslanike, koji otrčaše u šator. I gle, sve bijaše zakopano u šatoru, a odozdo srebro.
And Joshua sendeth messengers, and they run unto the tent, and lo, it is hidden in his tent, and the silver under it;
23 Uzmu sve iz šatora i donesu Jošui i starješinama Izraelovim i prostriješe sve pred Jahvu.
and they take them out of the midst of the tent, and bring them in unto Joshua, and unto all the sons of Israel, and pour them out before Jehovah.
24 Tada uze Jošua Akana, sina Zerahova, i srebro, plašt i zlatnu šipku, i sve sinove i kćeri njegove, volove njegove i magarad, i ovce, šator njegov i sve što bijaše njegovo te ga izvede u dolinu Akor. Pratio ih sav Izrael.
And Joshua taketh Achan son of Zerah, and the silver, and the robe, and the wedge of gold, and his sons, and his daughters, and his ox, and his ass, and his flock, and his tent, and all that he hath, and all Israel with him, and they cause them to go up the valley of Achor.
25 Reče Jošua: “Kako si ti nas unesrećio, tako danas tebe unesrećio Jahve!” I kamenova ga sav Izrael.
And Joshua saith, 'What! thou hast troubled us! — Jehovah doth trouble thee this day;' and all Israel cast stones at him, and they burn them with fire, and they stone them with stones,
26 Potom navališe na njega gomilu kamenja, koje stoji do danas. Tako se Jahve ublaži od svoga žestoka gnjeva. Zbog toga se događaja prozva ono mjesto dolina Akor i tako se zove do danas.
and they raise up over him a great heap of stones unto this day, and Jehovah turneth back from the heat of His anger, therefore hath [one] called the name of that place 'Valley of Achor' till this day.
