< Judges 12 >

1 And the men of Ephraim were gathered together, and passed northward. And they said to Jephthah, Why did thou pass over to fight against the sons of Ammon, and did not call us to go with thee? We will burn thy house upon thee with fire.
Možje iz Efrájima so se zbrali skupaj in odšli proti severu in rekli Jefteju: »Zakaj prehajaš preko, da se boriš zoper Amónove otroke, nas pa nisi poklical, da gremo s teboj? Nad teboj bomo tvojo hišo požgali z ognjem.«
2 And Jephthah said to them, I and my people were at great strife with the sons of Ammon, and when I called you, ye did not save me out of their hand.
Jefte jim je rekel: »Jaz in moje ljudstvo smo bili v velikem boju z Amónovimi otroki in ko sem vas poklical, me niste osvobodili iz njihovih rok.
3 And when I saw that ye did not save me, I put my life in my hand, and passed opposite the sons of Ammon, and Jehovah delivered them into my hand. Why then have ye come up to me this day, to fight against me?
Ko sem videl, da me niste osvobodili, sem svoje življenje vzel v svoje roke in šel preko, proti Amónovim otrokom in Gospod jih je izročil v mojo roko. Zakaj ste torej vi ta dan prišli gor do mene, da se borite zoper mene?«
4 Then Jephthah gathered together all the men of Gilead, and fought with Ephraim. And the men of Gilead smote Ephraim, because they said, Ye are fugitives of Ephraim, ye Gileadites, in the midst of Ephraim, and in the midst of Manasseh.
Potem je Jefte zbral skupaj vse gileádske može in se bojeval z Efrájimom in gileádski možje so udarili Efrájim, ker so rekli: »Vi Gileádčani ste ubežniki iz Efrájima med Efrájimci in Manásejci.«
5 And the Gileadites took the fords of the Jordan against the Ephraimites. And it was so, that, when any of the fugitives of Ephraim said, Let me go over, the men of Gilead said to him, Are thou an Ephraimite? If he said, No,
Gileádčani so pred Efrájimci zavzeli jordanske prehode. In bilo je tako, da ko so tisti Efrájimci, ki so pobegnili, rekli: »Naj grem preko, « da so mu gileádski možje rekli: » Ali si Efrájimec?« Če je rekel: »Ne, «
6 then they said to him, Say now Shibboleth, and he said Sibboleth, for he could not frame to pronounce it right, then they laid hold on him, and killed him at the fords of the Jordan. And there fell at that time of Ephraim forty-two thousand.
potem so mu rekli: »Reci sedaj Šibólet« in je rekel »Sibólet, « kajti tega ni mogel pravilno naglasiti. Potem so ga prijeli in usmrtil pri jordanskih prehodih in tam jih je ob tistem času izmed Efrájimcev padlo dvainštirideset tisoč.
7 And Jephthah judged Israel six years. Then Jephthah the Gileadite died, and was buried in one of the cities of Gilead.
Jefte je Izraelu sodil šest let. Potem je Gileádčan Jefte umrl in bil pokopan v enem izmed mest Gileáda.
8 And after him Ibzan of Bethlehem judged Israel.
Za njim je Izraelu sodil Ibcán iz Betlehema.
9 And he had thirty sons. And he sent abroad thirty daughters, and thirty daughters he brought in from abroad for his sons. And he judged Israel seven years.
Ta je imel trideset sinov in trideset hčera, ki jih je poslal naokrog in za svoje sinove je vzel trideset hčera od drugod. Izraelu je sodil sedem let.
10 And Ibzan died, and was buried at Bethlehem.
Potem je Ibcán umrl in je bil pokopan pri Betlehemu.
11 And after him Elon the Zebulunite judged Israel, and he judged Israel ten years.
Za njim je Izraelu sodil Zábulonec Elón. Izraelu je sodil deset let.
12 And Elon the Zebulunite died, and was buried in Aijalon in the land of Zebulun.
Zábulonec Elón je umrl in je bil pokopan v Ajalónu, v deželi Zábulon.
13 And after him Abdon the son of Hillel the Pirathonite judged Israel.
Za njim je Izraelu sodil Abdón, sin Piratónca Hiléla.
14 And he had forty sons and thirty sons' sons who rode on seventy donkey colts, and he judged Israel eight years.
Ta je imel štirideset sinov in trideset nečakov, ki so jahali na sedemdesetih osličjih žrebetih. Izraelu je sodil osem let.
15 And Abdon the son of Hillel the Pirathonite died, and was buried in Pirathon in the land of Ephraim, in the hill-country of the Amalekites.
Abdón, sin Piratónca Hiléla, je umrl in je bil pokopan v Piratónu, v deželi Efrájim, na gori Amalečanov.
