Suci 2
1 Anđeo Jahvin dođe iz Gilgala u Bokim i reče: “Izveo sam vas iz Egipta i doveo vas u zemlju koju sam vam obećao zaklevši se ocima vašim. Rekao sam: 'Neću raskinuti Saveza svog s vama dovijeka.
And an Angel of the Lord came vp from Gilgal to Bochim, and sayd, I made you to go vp out of Egypt, and haue brought you vnto the land which I had sworne vnto your fathers, and sayd, I wil neuer breake my couenant with you.
2 A vi ne sklapajte saveza sa stanovnicima ove zemlje; nego rušite njihove žrtvenike!' Ali vi niste poslušali moga glasa. Što ste učinili?
Ye also shall make no couenant with the inhabitants of this land, but shall breake downe their altars: but ye haue not obeyed my voyce. Why haue ye done this?
3 Zato vam kažem: neću ih odagnati pred vama. Nego, oni će vas tlačiti i bogovi njihovi bit će vam zamkom.”
Wherefore, I sayd also, I wil not cast them out before you, but they shalbe as thornes vnto your sides, and their gods shalbe your destruction.
4 Kad Anđeo Jahvin izreče te riječi svim Izraelcima, narod zakuka i zaplaka.
And when the Angel of the Lord spake these wordes vnto all the children of Israel, the people lift vp their voyce, and wept.
5 I tako prozvaše ono mjesto Bokim i ondje prinesoše žrtve Jahvi.
Therefore they called the name of that place, Bochim, and offered sacrifices there vnto the Lord.
6 Tada Jošua otpusti narod i raziđoše se Izraelci svaki na svoju baštinu da zaposjednu zemlju.
Now when Ioshua had sent the people away, the children of Israel went euery man into his inheritance, to possesse the land.
7 Narod je služio Jahvi svega vijeka Jošuina i svega vijeka starješina koje su nadživjele Jošuu i vidjele sva velika djela što ih je Jahve učinio Izraelu.
And the people had serued the Lord al the dayes of Ioshua, and all the dayes of the Elders that outliued Ioshua, which had seene all the great works of the Lord that he did for Israel.
8 Jošua, sin Nunov, sluga Jahvin, umrije u dobi od sto deset godina.
But Ioshua the sonne of Nun the seruant of the Lord dyed, when he was an hundreth and ten yeeres olde:
9 Sahraniše ga u kraju što ga je baštinio u Timnat Heresu, u Efrajimovoj gori, sjeverno od planine Gaaša.
And they buryed him in the coastes of his inheritance, in Timnath-heres in mount Ephraim, on the Northside of mount Gaash.
10 A kada se sav onaj naraštaj pridružio svojim ocima, naslijedi ga drugi naraštaj koji nije mario za Jahvu ni za djela što ih je učinio Izraelu.
And so all that generation was gathered vnto their fathers, and another generation arose after them, which neither knewe the Lord, nor yet the works, which he had done for Israel.
11 Tada su sinovi Izraelovi počeli činiti ono što Jahvi nije po volji i služili su baalima.
Then the children of Israel did wickedly in the sight of the Lord, and serued Baalim,
12 Ostaviše Jahvu, Boga otaca svojih, koji ih je izveo iz zemlje egipatske, i pođoše za drugim bogovima između bogova okolnih naroda. Klanjahu im se, razgnjeviše Jahvu.
And forsooke ye Lord God of their fathers, which brought them out of the lande of Egypt, and followed other gods, euen the gods of the people that were round about them, and bowed vnto them, and prouoked the Lord to anger.
13 Otpali su od Jahve da bi služili Baalu i Aštarti.
So they forsooke the Lord, and serued Baal, and Ashtaroth.
14 Zato Jahve izli gnjev svoj na Izraela: prepusti ih pljačkašima da ih plijene, izruči ih neprijateljima uokolo, tako te se ne mogoše oduprijeti.
And the wrath of the Lord was hote against Israel, and he deliuered them into the hands of spoylers, that spoyled them, and he sold them into the handes of their enemies rounde about them, so that they could no longer stande before their enemies.
15 Što bi god počeli, ruka se Jahvina okretala protiv njih na njihovu nesreću, kao što im je Jahve rekao i kao što im se zakleo. I tako zapadoše u veliku nevolju.
Whithersoeuer they went out, the hand of the Lord was sore against them, as ye Lord had sayd, and as the Lord had sworne vnto them: so he punished them sore.
16 Tada im Jahve stade podizati suce da ih izbavljaju iz ruku onih koji su ih pljačkali.
Notwithstanding, the Lord raysed vp Iudges, which deliuered them out of the hands of their oppressours.
17 Ali oni ni svojih sudaca nisu slušali, nego se iznevjeriše s drugim bogovima te im se klanjahu. Brzo su zašli s puta kojim su išli oci njihovi slušajući Jahvine zapovijedi; oni nisu činili tako.
But yet they would not obey their Iudges: for they went a whoring after other gods, and worshipped them, and turned quickly out of the way, wherein their fathers walked, obeying the commandements of the Lord: they did not so.
18 Kada im je podizao suce, Jahve bijaše sa svakim sucem te ih izbavljaše iz ruku njihovih neprijatelja za svega vijeka sučeva, jer se sažalilo Jahvi koliko su uzdisali pod jarmom onih koji su ih ugnjetavali.
And when the Lord had raysed them vp Iudges, the Lord was with the Iudge, and deliuered them out of the hande of their enemies all the dayes of the Iudge (for the Lord had compassion on their gronings, because of them that oppressed them and tormented them)
19 A kada bi sudac umro, oni bi opet zapadali u veću pokvarenost nego njihovi oci. Išli su za drugim bogovima, služili im i klanjali im se, ne odustajući od svojih opakih djela i postupaka.
Yet when the Iudge was dead, they returned, and did worse then their fathers, in following other gods to serue them and worshippe them: they ceased not from their owne inuentions, nor from their rebellious way.
20 Tada Jahve planu gnjevom na Izraela i reče: “Kad je taj narod pogazio Savez kojim sam obvezao njihove očeve i nije poslušao glasa moga,
Wherfore the wrath of the Lord was kindled against Israel, and he sayd, Because this people hath transgressed my couenant, which I commaded their fathers, and hath not obeyed my voyce,
21 ni ja odsad neću pred njim potjerati ni jednoga između naroda što ih je Jošua po svojoj smrti ostavio”,
Therefore will I no more cast out before them any of the nations, which Ioshua left when he dyed,
22 da bi njima stavio na kušnju Izraela: hoće li se ili neće držati Jahvinih putova kao što ih se držahu oci njihovi.
That through them I may proue Israel, whether they wil keepe the way of the Lord, to walke therein, as their fathers kept it, or not.
23 Zato Jahve bijaše ostavio te narode i nije ih odmah izagnao ni predao Jošui u ruke.
So the Lord left those nations, and droue them not out immediatly, neither deliuered them into the hand of Ioshua.
