Judges 9
1 And Abimelech the son of Jerubbaal went to Shechem to his mother's brothers, and spoke with them, and with all the family of the house of his mother's father, saying,
Nebo odšed Abimelech syn Jerobálův do Sichem k bratřím matky své, mluvil k nim i ke vší čeledi domu otce matky své, řka:
2 Speak, I pray you, in the ears of all the men of Shechem, Which is better for you, that all the sons of Jerubbaal, who are seventy men, rule over you, or that one rule over you? Remember also that I am your bone and your flesh.
Mluvte, prosím, ke všechněm mužům Sichemským: Co jest lépe vám, to-li, aby panovalo nad vámi sedmdesáte mužů, totiž všickni synové Jerobálovi, čili aby panoval nad vámi muž jeden? Pamatujte pak, že jsem já kost vaše a tělo vaše.
3 And his mother's brothers spoke of him in the ears of all the men of Shechem all these words. And their hearts inclined to follow Abimelech, for they said, He is our brother.
Tedy mluvili bratří matky jeho o něm ke všechněm mužům Sichemským všecka slova tato, a naklonilo se srdce jejich k Abimelechovi, nebo řekli: Bratr náš jest.
4 And they gave him seventy pieces of silver out of the house of Baal-berith, with which Abimelech hired vain and unstable fellows who followed him.
I dali jemu sedmdesáte lotů stříbra z domu Bále Berit, na něž sobě najal Abimelech služebníky, povaleče a tuláky, aby chodili za ním.
5 And he went to his father's house at Ophrah, and killed his brothers the sons of Jerubbaal, being seventy men, upon one stone, but Jotham the youngest son of Jerubbaal was left, for he hid himself.
A přišed do domu otce svého do Ofra, zmordoval bratří své, syny Jerobálovy, sedmdesáte mužů, na jednom kameni; toliko zůstal Jotam syn Jerobálův nejmladší, nebo se byl skryl.
6 And all the men of Shechem assembled themselves together, and all the house of Millo, and went and made Abimelech king by the oak of the pillar that was in Shechem.
Tedy shromáždili se všickni muži Sichemští i všecken dům Mello, i šli, a ustanovili sobě Abimelecha za krále na rovinách u sloupu, kterýž jest u Sichem.
7 And when they told it to Jotham, he went and stood on the top of mount Gerizim, and lifted up his voice, and cried out, and said to them, Hearken to me, ye men of Shechem, that God may hearken to you.
To když pověděli Jotamovi, odejda, postavil se na vrchu hory Garizim, a pozdvihna hlasu svého, volal, a řekl jim: Poslyšte mne muži Sichemští, a uslyš vás Bůh.
8 The trees went forth a time to anoint a king over them. And they said to the olive tree, Reign thou over us.
Sešlo se některého času dříví, aby pomazalo nad sebou krále. I řekli olivě: Kraluj nad námi.
9 But the olive tree said to them, Should I leave my fatness with which by me they honor God and man, and go to wave to and fro over the trees?
Jimžto odpověděla oliva: Zdali já, opustě svou tučnost, kterouž ctěn bývá Bůh i lidé, půjdu, abych byla postavena nad stromy?
10 And the trees said to the fig tree, Come thou, and reign over us.
I řeklo dříví fíku: Poď ty a kraluj nad námi.
11 But the fig tree said to them, Should I leave my sweetness, and my good fruit, and go to wave to and fro over the trees?
Jimž odpověděl fík: Zdali já, opustě sladkost svou a ovoce své výborné, půjdu, abych postaven byl nad stromy?
12 And the trees said to the vine, Come thou, and reign over us.
Řeklo opět dříví vinnému kořenu: Poď ty a kraluj nad námi.
13 And the vine said to them, Should I leave my new wine, which cheers God and man, and go to wave to and fro over the trees?
Jimž odpověděl vinný kořen: Zdali já, opustě své víno, kteréž obveseluje Boha i lidi, půjdu, abych postaven byl nad stromy?
14 Then all the trees said to the bramble, Come thou, and reign over us.
Naposledy řeklo všecko dříví bodláku: Poď ale ty a kraluj nad námi.
15 And the bramble said to the trees, If in truth ye anoint me king over you, then come and take refuge in my shade, and if not, let fire come out of the bramble, and devour the cedars of Lebanon.
I odpověděl bodlák dříví: Jestliže v pravdě béřete vy mne sobě za krále, poďte, odpočívejte pod stínem mým; pakli nic, vyjdi oheň z bodláku a spal cedry Libánské.
16 Now therefore, if ye have dealt truly and uprightly, in that ye have made Abimelech king, and if ye have dealt well with Jerubbaal and his house, and have done to him according to the deed of his hands
Tak i nyní, jestliže jste právě a upřímě učinili, ustavivše Abimelecha za krále, a jestliže jste dobře učinili Jerobálovi a domu jeho, a jestliže podlé dobrodiní rukou jeho odplatili jste se jemu;
17 (for my father fought for you, and ventured his life, and delivered you out of the hand of Midian,
(Nebo otec můj bojoval za vás a opovážil se života svého, aby vás vysvobodil z ruky Madianských,
18 and ye have risen up against my father's house this day, and have slain his sons, seventy men, upon one stone, and have made Abimelech, the son of his maid-servant, king over the men of Shechem because he is your brother),
Vy pak teď povstali jste proti domu otce mého, a zmordovali jste syny jeho, sedmdesáte mužů na jednom kameni, a ustanovili jste krále Abimelecha, syna děvky jeho, nad muži Sichemskými, proto že bratr váš jest);
19 if ye then have dealt truly and uprightly with Jerubbaal and with his house this day, then rejoice ye in Abimelech, and let him also rejoice in you.
Jestliže, řku, právě a upřímě udělali jste Jerobálovi i domu jeho dne tohoto, veselte se z Abimelecha, a on také nechť se veselí z vás;
20 But if not, let fire come out from Abimelech, and devour the men of Shechem, and the house of Millo, and let fire come out from the men of Shechem, and from the house of Millo, and devour Abimelech.
Pakli nic, nechť vyjde oheň z Abimelecha a sžíře muže Sichemské i dům Mello, nechť vyjde také oheň od mužů Sichemských a z domu Mello a sžíře Abimelecha.
21 And Jotham ran away, and fled, and went to Beer, and dwelt there, for fear of Abimelech his brother.
Tedy utekl Jotam, a utíkaje, odšel do Beera, a zůstal tam, boje se Abimelecha bratra svého.
22 And Abimelech was ruler over Israel three years.
I panoval Abimelech nad Izraelem tři léta.
23 And God sent an evil spirit between Abimelech and the men of Shechem, and the men of Shechem dealt treacherously with Abimelech,
Poslal pak Bůh ducha zlého mezi Abimelecha a mezi muže Sichemské, a zpronevěřili se muži Sichemští Abimelechovi,
24 that the violence done to the seventy sons of Jerubbaal might come, and that their blood might be laid upon Abimelech their brother who killed them, and upon the men of Shechem who strengthened his hands to kill his brothers.
Aby pomštěna byla křivda sedmdesáti synů Jerobálových, a aby krev jejich přišla na Abimelecha bratra jejich, kterýž zmordoval je, a na muže Sichemské, kteříž posilnili rukou jeho, aby zmordoval bratří své.
25 And the men of Shechem set ambushes for him on the tops of the mountains, and they robbed all who came along that way by them, and it was told Abimelech.
Nebo učinili muži Sichemští jemu zálohy na vrších hor, a loupili všecky chodíci mimo ně tou cestou; kterážto věc povědína jest Abimelechovi.
26 And Gaal the son of Ebed came with his brothers, and went over to Shechem, and the men of Shechem put their trust in him.
Syn pak Ebedův Gál, jda s bratřími svými, přišel do Sichem, i těšili se z něho muži Sichemští.
27 And they went out into the field, and gathered their vineyards, and trod the grapes, and held festival, and went into the house of their god, and ate and drank, and cursed Abimelech.
A vyšedše na pole, sbírali víno své a tlačili i veselili se; a všedše do chrámu bohů svých, jedli a pili, a zlořečili Abimelechovi.
28 And Gaal the son of Ebed said, Who is Abimelech, and who is Shechem, that we should serve him? Is not he the son of Jerubbaal, and Zebul his officer? Serve ye the men of Hamor the father of Shechem, but why should we serve him?
Řekl pak Gál syn Ebedův: Kdo jest Abimelech? A jaké jest Sichem, abychom sloužili jemu? Zdaliž není syn Jerobálův, a Zebul úředník jeho? Služte raději mužům Emora, otce Sichemova; nebo proč my máme sloužiti tomuto?
29 And would that this people were under my hand! Then I would remove Abimelech. And he said to Abimelech, Increase thine army, and come out.
Ale ó kdyby tento lid byl v ruce mé, abych shladil Abimelecha! I řekl Abimelechovi: Sbeř sobě vojsko, a vyjdi.
30 And when Zebul the ruler of the city heard the words of Gaal the son of Ebed, his anger was kindled.
Uslyšav pak Zebul, úředník města toho, slova Gále syna Ebedova, rozhněval se náramně.
31 And he sent messengers to Abimelech privately, saying, Behold, Gaal the son of Ebed and his brothers have come to Shechem, and, behold, they are fortifying the city against thee.
I poslal posly k Abimelechovi tajně, řka: Hle, Gál syn Ebedův i bratří jeho přišli do Sichem, a hle, bojovati budou s městem proti tobě.
32 Now therefore, up by night, thou and the people who are with thee, and lie in wait in the field.
Protož nyní vstana nočně, ty i lid, kterýž jest s tebou, zdělej zálohy v poli.
33 And it shall be, that in the morning, as soon as the sun is up, thou shall rise early, and rush upon the city, and, behold, when he and the people who are with him come out against thee, then thou may do to them as thou shall find occasion.
A ráno, když bude slunce vycházeti, vstana, udeříš na město, a když on i lid, kterýž jest s ním, vyjde proti tobě, učiníš jemu to, což se naskytne ruce tvé.
34 And Abimelech rose up, and all the people who were with him, by night, and they laid wait against Shechem in four companies.
A protož vstal Abimelech i všecken lid, kterýž s ním byl v noci, a učinili zálohy u Sichem na čtyřech místech.
35 And Gaal the son of Ebed went out, and stood in the entrance of the gate of the city. And Abimelech rose up, and the people who were with him, from the ambushment.
I vyšel Gál syn Ebedův, a postavil se v bráně města; vyvstal pak Abimelech i lid, kterýž s ním byl, z záloh.
36 And when Gaal saw the people, he said to Zebul, Behold, there comes a people down from the tops of the mountains. And Zebul said to him, Thou see the shadow of the mountains as if they were men.
A uzřev Gál ten lid, řekl Zebulovi: Hle, lid sstupuje s vrchu hor. Jemuž odpověděl Zebul: Stín hor vidíš, jako nějaké lidi.
37 And Gaal spoke again and said, See, there comes a people down by the middle of the land, and one company comes by the way of the oak of Meonenim.
Tedy opět promluvil Gál, řka: Hle, lid sstupuje s vrchu, nebo houf jeden táhne cestou rovin Monenim.
38 Then Zebul said to him, Where is now thy mouth, that thou said, Who is Abimelech, that we should serve him? Is not this the people that thou have despised? Go out now, I pray, and fight with them.
Řekl pak jemu Zebul: Kde jsou nyní ústa tvá, jimižs mluvil: Kdo jest Abimelech, abychom sloužili jemu? Zdaliž toto není lid ten, kterýmž jsi pohrdal? Vytáhniž nyní, a bojuj proti němu.
39 And Gaal went out before the men of Shechem, and fought with Abimelech.
I vytáhl Gál před lidmi Sichemskými, a bojoval proti Abimelechovi.
40 And Abimelech chased him, and he fled before him, and there fell many wounded, even to the entrance of the gate.
Ale Abimelech honil ho utíkajícího před tváří svou, a padlo raněných mnoho až k bráně.
41 And Abimelech dwelt at Arumah, and Zebul drove out Gaal and his brothers, that they should not dwell in Shechem.
Zůstal pak Abimelech v Aruma, a Zebul vyhnal Gále i bratří jeho, aby nezůstávali v Sichem.
42 And it came to pass on the morrow, that the people went out into the field, and they told Abimelech.
Nazejtří pak vytáhl lid do pole, i oznámeno jest to Abimelechovi.
43 And he took the people, and divided them into three companies, and laid wait in the field. And he looked, and, behold, the people came forth out of the city. And he rose up against them, and smote them.
Tedy on pojal lid svůj, a rozdělil jej na tři houfy, zdělav zálohy v polích, a vida, an lid vychází z města, vyskočil na ně a zbil je.
44 And Abimelech, and the companies who were with him, rushed forward, and stood in the entrance of the gate of the city, and the two companies rushed upon all who were in the field, and smote them.
Nebo Abimelech a houf, kterýž byl s ním, udeřili na ně a postavili se u brány města, druzí pak dva houfové obořili se na všecky ty, kteříž byli v poli, a zbili je.
45 And Abimelech fought against the city all that day. And he took the city, and killed the people that were in it, and he beat down the city, and sowed it with salt.
Abimelech pak dobýval města celý ten den, až ho i dobyl, a lid, kterýž v něm byl, pobil, a zbořiv město, posál je solí.
46 And when all the men of the tower of Shechem heard of it, they entered into the stronghold of the house of El-berith.
Uslyševše pak všickni muži věže Sichemské, vešli do hradu svého, chrámu boha Berit.
47 And it was told Abimelech that all the men of the tower of Shechem were gathered together.
A oznámeno jest Abimelechovi, že se tam shromáždili všickni muži věže Sichemské.
48 And Abimelech got up to mount Zalmon, he and all the people who were with him. And Abimelech took an axe in his hand, and cut down a bough from the trees, and took it up, and laid it on his shoulder. And he said to the people who were with him, What ye have seen me do, make haste, and do as I have done.
Tedy vstoupil Abimelech na horu Salmon, on i všecken lid, kterýž byl s ním, a nabrav seker s sebou, nasekal ratolestí s stromů, kterýchž nabral a vložil na rameno své. I řekl lidu, kterýž byl s ním: Což jste viděli, že jsem učinil, spěšně učiňte tak jako já.
49 And all the people likewise cut down every man his bough, and followed Abimelech, and put them to the stronghold, and set the stronghold on fire upon them, so that all the men of the tower of Shechem died also, about a thousand men and women.
I uťal sobě jeden každý ze všeho lidu ratolest, a jdouce za Abimelechem, skladli je u hradu, a zapálili jimi hrad. I zemřeli tam všickni muži věže Sichemské téměř tisíc mužů a žen.
50 Then Abimelech went to Thebez, and encamped against Thebez, and took it.
Odšel pak Abimelech do Tébes, a položil se u Tébes, i dobyl ho.
51 But there was a strong tower inside the city. And all the men and women fled, and all those of the city, and shut themselves in, and got up to the roof of the tower.
Byla pak věže pevná u prostřed města, a utekli tam všickni muži i ženy, i všickni přední města toho, a zavřeli po sobě, vstoupivše na vrch věže.
52 And Abimelech came to the tower, and fought against it, and drew near to the door of the tower to burn it with fire.
Tehdy přišed Abimelech až k věži, dobýval jí, a přistoupil až ke dveřím věže, aby je zapálil ohněm.
53 And a certain woman cast an upper millstone upon Abimelech's head, and broke his skull.
V tom žena nějaká svrhla kus žernovu na hlavu Abimelechovu, a prorazila hlavu jeho.
54 Then he called hastily to the young man his armor bearer, and said to him, Draw thy sword, and kill me, that men not say of me, A woman killed him. And his young man thrust him through, and he died.
A on rychle zavolav mládence, kterýž nosil zbroj jeho, řekl jemu: Vytrhni meč svůj a zabí mne, aby potom nepravili o mně: Žena zabila ho. I probodl jej služebník jeho, a umřel.
55 And when the men of Israel saw that Abimelech was dead, they departed every man to his place.
Uzřevše pak synové Izraelští, že by umřel Abimelech, odešli jeden každý k místu svému.
56 Thus God requited the wickedness of Abimelech, which he did to his father, in slaying his seventy brothers.
A tak odměnil Bůh zlým Abimelechovi za nešlechetnost, kterouž páchal proti otci svému, zmordovav sedmdesáte bratří svých.
57 And God requited all the wickedness of the men of Shechem upon their heads. And the curse of Jotham the son of Jerubbaal came upon them.
Tolikéž i všecku nešlechetnost mužů Sichemských vrátil Bůh na hlavu jejich, a přišlo na ně zlořečení Jotama syna Jerobálova.
