Sudcov 12
1 Shromáždili se pak muži Efraim, a přešedše k straně půlnoční, řekli k Jefte: Proč jsi vyšel k boji proti Ammonitským, a nepovolal jsi nás, abychom šli s tebou? Dům tvůj i tebe ohněm spálíme.
The men of the tribe of Ephraim summoned their soldiers, and they crossed [the Jordan River] to [the town of] Zaphon [to talk with] Jephthah. They said to him, “(Why did you not ask us for help?/You should have requested us) to help your army fight the Ammon people-group. So we will burn down your house while you are in it.”
2 K nimž řekl Jefte: Nesnáz jsem měl já a lid můj s Ammonitskými velikou; tedy povolal jsem vás, ale nevysvobodili jste mne z ruky jejich.
Jephthah replied, “The Ammon people-group were oppressing us greatly. When we were prepared to start to attack them, I requested you to come and help us, but you refused. My men and I defeated the Ammon people-group, but you did not help us.
3 Protož vida, že jste mne nevysvobodili, odvážil jsem se života svého, a táhl jsem proti Ammonitským, i dal je Hospodin v ruku mou. Ale proč jste dnes přišli ke mně? Zdali abyste bojovali proti mně?
When I saw that you would not help us, I was willing to be killed in the battle against the Ammon people-group. But Yahweh helped us to defeat them. [You did not help us when we requested it before], so (why have you come here today to fight against me?/you should not have come here today to fight against me.)” [RHQ]
4 Tedy shromáždil Jefte všecky muže Galádské, a bojoval s Efraimem. I porazili muži Galád Efraimské, nebo pravili poběhlci Efraimští: Vy Galádští jste u prostřed Efraima a u prostřed Manassesa.
Then Jephthah summoned the men of [the] Gilead [region] to fight [against the men of the tribe of] Ephraim. The men of the tribe of Ephraim said, “You men from [the] Gilead [region] are men who deserted us. Long ago you left us and moved to the area between our tribe and the tribe of Manasseh.” [Because of their saying that], the men of [the] Gilead [region] attacked the men of the tribe of Ephraim.
5 Odjali Galádští též i brody Jordánské Efraimským. A bylo, že když kdo z utíkajících Efraimských řekl: Nechať přejdu, řekli jemu muži Galádští: Jsi-li Efratejský? Jestliže řekl: Nejsem,
The men of Gilead captured that (ford/place where people can walk across) at the Jordan [River] to go to the land where the tribe of Ephraim live. Whenever one of the soldiers from the tribe of Ephraim came to the ford to try to escape, he would say, “Let me cross the river.” Then the men of Gilead would ask him, “Are you from the tribe of Ephraim?” If he said “No,”
6 Tedy řekli jemu: Rci hned Šibolet. I řekl: Sibolet, aniž dobře mohl vyřknouti toho. Tedy pochytíce jej, zamordovali ho u brodu Jordánského. I padlo toho času z Efraima čtyřidceti a dva tisíce.
they would say to him, “Say the word ‘Shibboleth’.” The men of Ephraim could not pronounce that word correctly. So if the person from the tribe of Ephraim said ‘Sibboleth’, [they would know that he was lying and that he was really from the tribe of Ephraim, and] they would kill him there at the ford. So the men of Gilead killed 42,000 people from the tribe of Ephraim at that time.
7 Soudil pak Jefte Izraele šest let; a umřel Jefte Galádský, a pochován jest v jednom z měst Galádských.
Jephthah, the man from [the] Gilead [region], was a leader of the Israeli people for six years. Then he died and was buried in a town in [the] Gilead [region].
8 Potom soudil po něm Izraele Abesam z Betléma.
After Jephthah died, a man named Ibzan, from Bethlehem, became the leader of the Israeli people.
9 A měl třidceti synů a třidceti dcer, kteréž rozevdal od sebe, a třidceti žen přivedl od jinud synům svým. I soudil Izraele sedm let.
He had 30 sons and 30 daughters. He forced all his daughters to marry men who were not in his clan, and brought women from outside his clan to marry his sons. He was the leader of the Israeli people for seven years.
10 A umřev Abesam, pochován jest v Betlémě.
When he died, he was buried in Bethlehem.
11 Po něm pak soudil Izraele Elon Zabulonský; ten soudil Izraele deset let.
After Ibzan died, a man named Elon, from the tribe of Zebulun, became the leader of the Israeli people. He was their leader for ten years.
12 I umřel Elon Zabulonský, a pochován jest v Aialon, v zemi Zabulon.
Then he died and was buried in Aijalon [city] in the area where the tribe of Zebulun lives.
13 Potom soudil Izraele Abdon syn Hellelův Faratonský.
After Elon died, a man named Abdon who was the son of Hillel, from Pirathon [city, in the area where the tribe of Ephraim live] became the leader of the Israeli people.
14 Ten měl čtyřidceti synů a třidceti vnuků, kteříž jezdili na sedmdesáti mezcích; i soudil Izraele osm let.
He had 40 sons and 30 grandsons. Each of them had his own donkey on which to ride. Abdon was the leader of the Israeli people for eight years.
15 Umřev pak Abdon syn Hellelův Faratonský, pohřben jest v Faraton, v zemi Efraim na hoře Amalechitské.
When Abdon died, he was buried in Pirathon, in the hilly area where the descendants of Amalek lived previously, [but now it is the area where the tribe of Ephraim lives].
