Joshua 2
1 Then Joshua son of Nun secretly sent two spies from Shittim, saying, “Go, inspect the land, especially Jericho.” So they went and entered the house of a prostitute named Rahab and stayed there.
A Isus sin Navin posla iz Sitima potajno dvije uhode rekavši im: idite, vidite zemlju i Jerihon. I oni otidoše, i doðoše u kuæu jednoj kurvi, kojoj ime bješe Rava, i poèinuše ondje.
2 And it was reported to the king of Jericho: “Behold, some men of Israel have come here tonight to spy out the land.”
Ali bi javljeno caru Jerihonskom i kazano: evo, ljudi doðoše ovamo noæas izmeðu sinova Izrailjevih da uhode zemlju.
3 So the king of Jericho sent to Rahab and said, “Bring out the men who came to you and entered your house, for they have come to spy out the whole land.”
I posla car Jerihonski k Ravi i poruèi: izvedi ljude koji su došli k tebi i ušli u tvoju kuæu, jer su došli da uhode svu zemlju.
4 But the woman had taken the two men and hidden them. So she said, “Yes, the men did come to me, but I did not know where they had come from.
Ali žena uzevši ona dva èovjeka sakri ih; pa reèe: jest istina da su ljudi došli k meni, ali ja ne znah odakle bijahu;
5 At dusk, when the gate was about to close, the men went out, and I do not know which way they went. Pursue them quickly, and you may catch them!”
I kad se vrata zatvorahu u sumrak, ljudi izidoše; ne znam kuda otidoše; idite brzo za njima; stignuæete ih.
6 (But Rahab had taken them up to the roof and hidden them among the stalks of flax that she had laid out there.)
A ona ih bješe izvela na krov, i sakrila ih pod lan netrven, koji bijaše razastrla po krovu.
7 So the king’s men set out in pursuit of the spies along the road to the fords of the Jordan, and as soon as they had gone out, the gate was shut.
I ljudi poðoše za njima u potjeru put Jordana do broda; i vrata se zatvoriše kad izide potjera za njima.
8 Before the spies lay down for the night, Rahab went up on the roof
Oni pak još ne bjehu pospali, a ona doðe k njima na krov,
9 and said to them, “I know that the LORD has given you this land and that the fear of you has fallen on us, so that all who dwell in the land are melting in fear of you.
I reèe im: znam da vam je Gospod dao ovu zemlju, jer nas popade strah od vas, i prepali su se od vas svi koji žive u ovoj zemlji.
10 For we have heard how the LORD dried up the waters of the Red Sea before you when you came out of Egypt, and what you did to Sihon and Og, the two kings of the Amorites across the Jordan, whom you devoted to destruction.
Jer èusmo kako je Gospod osušio pred vama Crveno More kad izidoste iz Misira, i šta ste uèinili od dva cara Amorejska koji bijahu preko Jordana, od Siona i Oga, koje pobiste.
11 When we heard this, our hearts melted and everyone’s courage failed because of you, for the LORD your God is God in the heavens above and on the earth below.
I kad to èusmo, rastopi se srce naše, i ni u kome veæ nema junaštva od straha vašega; jer je Gospod, Bog vaš, Bog gore na nebu i dolje na zemlji.
12 Now therefore, please swear to me by the LORD that you will indeed show kindness to my family, because I showed kindness to you. Give me a sure sign
Nego sada zakunite mi se Gospodom da æete uèiniti milost domu oca mojega kao što ja vama uèinih milost, i dajte mi znak istinit,
13 that you will spare the lives of my father and mother, my brothers and sisters, and all who belong to them, and that you will deliver us from death.”
Da æete saèuvati život mojemu ocu i mojoj materi i mojoj braæi i mojim sestrama i svjema njihovijem, i da æete izbaviti duše naše od smrti.
14 “Our lives for your lives!” the men agreed. “If you do not report our mission, we will show you kindness and faithfulness when the LORD gives us the land.”
A ljudi joj odgovoriše: mi æemo izginuti za vas, ako ne izdate ove naše stvari; i kad nam Gospod da ovu zemlju, uèiniæemo ti milost i vjeru.
15 Then Rahab let them down by a rope through the window, since the house where she lived was built into the wall of the city.
Tada ih ona spusti kroz prozor po konopcu; jer kuæa njezina bješe na zidu gradskom, i ona na zidu nastavaše.
16 “Go to the hill country,” she said, “so that your pursuers will not find you. Hide yourselves there for three days until they have returned; then go on your way.”
I reèe im: idite u goru da ne naiðe na vas potjera, i ondje se krijte tri dana dokle se ne vrati potjera, pa onda idite svojim putem.
17 The men said to her, “We will not be bound by this oath you made us swear
A ljudi joj rekoše: biæemo prosti od ove tvoje zakletve kojom si nas zaklela;
18 unless, when we enter the land, you have tied this scarlet cord in the window through which you let us down, and unless you have brought your father and mother and brothers and all your family into your house.
Evo, kad doðemo u zemlju, veži ovu vrvcu od skerleta na prozor, kroz koji si nas spustila, i skupi kod sebe u tu kuæu oca svojega i mater i braæu i sav dom oca svojega.
19 If anyone goes out the door of your house into the street, his blood will be on his own head, and we will be innocent. But if a hand is laid on anyone with you in the house, his blood will be on our heads.
I ko bi god izašao iz tvoje kuæe, krv njegova neka bude na njegovu glavu, a mi da nijesmo krivi; a ko god bude s tobom u kuæi, krv njegova neka doðe na naše glave, ako ga se ko rukom dotakne.
20 And if you report our mission, we will be released from the oath you made us swear.”
Ali ako izdaš ovu stvar našu, tada æemo biti prosti od tvoje zakletve, kojom si nas zaklela.
21 “Let it be as you say,” she replied, and she sent them away. And when they had gone, she tied the scarlet cord in the window.
A ona odgovori: kako rekoste tako neka bude. Tada ih pusti, i otidoše; i ona veza vrvcu od skerleta na prozor.
22 So the spies went out into the hill country and stayed there three days, until their pursuers had returned without finding them, having searched all along the road.
A oni otišavši doðoše u goru, i ostaše ondje tri dana dokle se ne vrati potjera; jer ih potjera tražaše po svijem putovima, ali ih ne naðe.
23 Then the two men started back, came down from the hill country, and crossed the river. So they came to Joshua son of Nun and reported all that had happened to them.
I vratiše se ona dva èovjeka, i sišavši s gore prebrodiše i doðoše k Isusu sinu Navinu, i pripovjediše mu sve što im se dogodilo.
24 “The LORD has surely delivered the entire land into our hands,” they said to Joshua. “Indeed, all who dwell in the land are melting in fear of us.”
I rekoše Isusu: zaista dao nam je Gospod u ruke svu tu zemlju, i svi stanovnici one zemlje uplašili su se od nas.
