< Joshua 10 >

1 When Adonisedec king of Jerusalem had heard these things, to wit, that Josue had taken Hai, and had destroyed it, (for as he had done to Jericho and the king thereof, so did he to Hai, and its king, ) and that the Gabaonites were gone over to Israel, and were their confederates,
Pripetilo se je torej, ko je jeruzalemski kralj Adoní Cedek slišal, kako je Józue zavzel Aj in ga popolnoma uničil; kakor je storil Jerihi in njenemu kralju, tako je storil Aju in njegovemu kralju; in kako so prebivalci Gibeóna sklenili mir z Izraelom in so bili med njimi;
2 He was exceedingly afraid. For Gabaon was a great city, and one of the royal cities, and greater than the town of Hai, and all its fighting men were most valiant.
da so se silno bali, ker je bil Gibeón veliko mesto, kakor eno izmed kraljevskih mest in ker je bil večji kakor Aj in vsi njihovi možje so bili mogočni.
3 Therefore Adonisedec king of Jerusalem sent to Oham king of Hebron, and to Pharam king of Jerimoth, and to Japhia king of Lachis, and to Dabir king of Eglon, saying:
Zato je jeruzalemski kralj Adoní Cedek poslal k Hohámu, kralju v Hebrónu in Pirámu, kralju v Jarmútu in Jafíju, kralju v Lahíšu in Debírju, kralju v Eglónu, rekoč:
4 Come up to me, and bring help, that we may take Gabaon, because it hath gone over to Josue, and to the children of Israel.
»Pridite gor k meni in mi pomagajte, da bomo lahko udarili Gibeón, kajti ta je sklenil mir z Józuetom in z Izraelovimi otroki.«
5 So the five kings of the Amorrhites being assembled together went up: the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jerimoth, the king of Lachis, the king of Eglon, they and their armies, and camped about Gabaon, laying siege to it.
Zato se je pet kraljev izmed Amoréjcev, kralj iz Jeruzalema, kralj iz Hebróna, kralj iz Jarmúta, kralj iz Lahíša in kralj iz Eglóna, zbralo skupaj in odšlo gor, oni in vse njihove vojske in se utaborili pred Gibeónom in začeli vojno zoper njega.
6 But the inhabitants of the city of Gabaon which was besieged, sent to Josue, who then abode in the camp at Galgal, and said to him: Withdraw not thy hands from helping thy servants: come up quickly and save us, and bring us succour: for all the kings of the Amorrhites, who dwell in the mountains, are gathered together against us.
Možje iz Gibeóna so poslali k Józuetu, v tabor pri Gilgálu, rekoč: »Ne odtegni svoje roke od svojih služabnikov. Hitro pridi gor k nam in nas reši in nam pomagaj, kajti vsi kralji Amoréjcev, ki prebivajo po gorah, so skupaj zbrani zoper nas.«
7 And Josue went up from Galgal, and all the army of the warriors with him, most valiant men.
Tako se je Józue vzpel iz Gilgála, on in vse bojno ljudstvo z njim in vsi močni junaški možje.
8 And the Lord said to Josue: Fear them not: for I have delivered them into thy hands: none of them shall be able to stand against thee.
Gospod je rekel Józuetu: »Ne boj se jih, kajti izročil sem jih v tvojo roko. Niti mož izmed njih ne bo obstal pred teboj.«
9 So Josue going up from Galgal all the night, came upon them suddenly.
Józue je torej nenadoma prišel k njim in vso noč so hodili gor od Gilgála.
10 And the Lord troubled them at the sight of Israel: and he slew them with a great slaughter in Gabaon, and pursued them by the way of the ascent to Beth-horon, and cut them off all the way to Azeca and Maceda.
Gospod jih je porazil pred Izraelom ter jih pri Gibeónu usmrtil z velikim pobojem in jih zasledoval na poti, ki gre gor do Bet Horóna in jih udarjal do Azéke in proti Makédi.
11 And when they were fleeing from the children of Israel, and were in the descent of Beth-horon, the Lord cast down upon them great stones from heaven as far as Azeca: and many more were killed with the hailstones than were slain by the swords of the children of Israel.
Ko so bežali izpred Izraela in so bili pri spuščanju dol k Bet Horónu, se je pripetilo, da je Gospod z neba nanje metal velike kamne do Azéke in so umrli. Bilo jih je več, ki so umrli od kamnite toče, kakor tistih, ki so jih Izraelovi otroci usmrtili z mečem.
12 Then Josue spoke to the Lord, in the day that he delivered the Amorrhite in the sight of the children of Israel, and he said before them: Move not, O sun, toward Gabaon, nor thou, O moon, toward the valley of Ajalon.
Potem je Józue spregovoril Gospodu na dan, ko je pred Izraelovimi otroki Gospod izročil Amoréjce in rekel pred očmi Izraela: »Sonce, ti stoj mirno nad Gibeónom in ti luna v dolini Ajalón.«
13 And the sun and the moon stood still, till the people revenged themselves of their enemies. Is not this written in the book of the just? So the sun stood still in the midst of heaven, and hasted not to go down the space of one day.
Sonce je stalo mirno in luna je obstala, dokler se ljudstvo ni maščevalo nad svojimi sovražniki. Mar ni to zapisano v Jasherjevi knjigi? Tako je sonce mirno stalo na sredi neba in približno cel dan ni pohitelo, da bi zašlo.
14 There was not before nor after so long a day, the Lord obeying the voice of a man, and fighting for Israel.
Pred tem niti za tem ni bilo takšnega dne, da bi Gospod prisluhnil glasu moža, kajti Gospod se je bojeval za Izrael.
15 And Josue returned with all Israel into the camp of Galgal.
Józue se je vrnil in ves Izrael z njim, k taboru pri Gilgálu.
16 For the five kings were fled, and had hidden themselves in a cave of the city of Maceda.
Toda teh pet kraljev je pobegnilo in se skrilo v votlini pri Makédi.
17 And it was told Josue that the five kings were found hidden in a cave of the city of Maceda.
To je bilo povedano Józuetu, rekoč: »Pet kraljev je najdenih skritih v votlini pri Makédi.«
18 And he commanded them that were with him, saying: Roll great stones to the mouth of the cave, and set careful men, to keep them shut up:
Józue je rekel: »Na odprtino votline zavalite velike kamne in poleg postavite može, da jih varujejo.
19 And stay you not, but pursue after the enemies, and kill all the hindermost of them as they flee, and do not suffer them whom the Lord God hath delivered into your hands to shelter themselves in their cities.
Ne stojte, temveč sledite za svojimi sovražniki in udarite najbolj zadnje izmed njih. Ne trpite, da vstopijo v svoja mesta, kajti Gospod, vaš Bog, jih je izročil v vašo roko.«
20 So the enemies being slain with a great slaughter, and almost utterly consumed, they that were able to escape from Israel, entered into fenced cities.
Pripetilo se je, ko so Józue in Izraelovi otroci z zelo velikim pokolom, dokler niso bili použiti, naredili konec njihovemu pobijanju, da je preostanek, ki je preostal izmed njih, vstopil v utrjena mesta.
21 And all the army returned to Josue in Maceda, where the camp then was, in good health and without the loss of any one: and no man durst move his tongue against the children of Israel.
In vse ljudstvo se je v miru vrnilo k taboru, k Józuetu, pri Makédi. Nihče ni svojega jezika premaknil zoper kateregakoli izmed Izraelovih otrok.
22 And Josue gave orders, saying: Open the mouth of the cave, and bring forth to me the five kings that lie hid therein.
Potem je Józue rekel: »Odprite odprtino votline in teh pet kraljev privedite k meni, ven iz votline.«
23 And the ministers did as they were commanded: and they brought out to him the five kings out of the cave: the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jerimoth, the king of Lachis, the king of Eglon.
Storili so tako in iz votline so k njemu privedli teh pet kraljev, kralja iz Jeruzalema, kralja iz Hebróna, kralja iz Jarmúta, kralja iz Lahíša in kralja iz Eglóna.
24 And when they were Drought out to him, he called all the men of Israel, and said to the chiefs of the army that were with him: Go, and set your feet on the necks of these kings. And when they had gone, and put their feet upon the necks of them lying under them,
Ko so te kralje privedli k Józuetu, se je pripetilo, da je Józue dal poklicati vse Izraelove može in rekel poveljnikom bojevnikov, ki so odšli z njim: »Pridite bliže, položite svoja stopala na vratove teh kraljev.« Približali so se in svoja stopala položili na njihove vratove.
25 He said again to them: Fear not, neither be ye dismayed, take courage and be strong: for so will the Lord do to all your enemies, against whom you fight.
Józue jim je rekel: »Ne bojte se niti ne bodite zaprepadeni, bodite močni in odločnega poguma, kajti tako bo Gospod storil vsem vašim sovražnikom, zoper katere se borite.«
26 And Josue struck, and slew them, and hanged them upon five gibbets, and they hung until the evening.
Potem jih je Józue udaril, jih usmrtil in jih obesil na pet dreves; in do večera so viseli na drevesih.
27 And when the sun was down, he commanded the soldiers to take them down from the gibbets. And after they were taken down, they cast them into the cave where they had lain hid, and put great stones at the mouth thereof, which remain until this day.
Ob času zahajanja sonca pa se je pripetilo, da je Józue zapovedal in so jih sneli iz dreves in jih vrgli v votlino, v kateri so bili skriti in na ustje votline so položili velike kamne, ki ostajajo do točno tega dne.
28 The same day Josue took Maceda and destroyed it, with the edge of the sword, and killed the king and all the inhabitants thereof: he left not in it the least remains. And he did to the king of Maceda, as he had done to the king of Jericho.
Ta dan je Józue zavzel Makédo in jo udaril z ostrino meča in njenega kralja je popolnoma uničil, njih in vse duše, ki so bile tam. Nikogar ni pustil ostati. Kralju v Makédi pa je storil, kakor je storil kralju v Jerihi.
29 And he passed from Maceda with all Israel to Lebna, and fought against it:
Potem je Józue in ves Izrael z njim, prešel od Makéde v Libno in se boril zoper Libno.
30 And the Lord delivered it with the king thereof into the hands of Israel: and they destroyed the city with the edge of the sword, and all the inhabitants thereof. They left not in it any remains. And they did to the king of Lebna, as they had done to the king of Jericho.
Tudi njo je Gospod izročil in njenega kralja, v Izraelovo roko. Udaril jo je z ostrino meča in vse duše, ki so bile v njej. Nikogar ni pustil preostati v njej, toda njenemu kralju je storil, kakor je storil kralju Jerihe.
31 From Lebna he passed unto Lachis, with all Israel: and investing it with his army, besieged it.
Józue in ves Izrael z njim, je prešel od Libne do Lahíša in se utaboril zoper njega in se boril zoper njega.
32 And the Lord delivered Lachis into the hands of Israel, and he took it the following day, and put it to the sword, and every soul that was in it, as he had done to Lebna.
Gospod je Lahíš izročil v Izraelovo roko, ki so ga zavzeli na drugi dan in ga udaril z ostrino meča in vse duše, ki so bile tam, glede na vse, kar je storil Libni.
33 At that time Horam king of Gazer, came up to succour Lachis: and Josue slew him with all his people, so as to leave none alive.
Potem je prišel gor Horám, kralj v Gezerju, da pomaga Lahíšu, in Józue je udaril njega in njegovo ljudstvo, dokler nikogar ni pustil preostati.
34 And he passed from Lachis to Eglon, and surrounded it,
Iz Lahíša je Józue prešel do Eglóna in ves Izrael z njim in utaborili so se zoper njega in se borili zoper njega.
35 And took it the same day: and put to the sword all the souls that were in it, according to all that he had done to Lachis.
Zavzeli so ga na ta dan in ga udarili z ostrino meča in vse duše, ki so bile tam, je ta dan popolnoma uničil, glede na vse, kar je storil Lahíšu.
36 He went up also with all Israel from Eglon to Hebron, and fought against it:
Józue in ves Izrael z njim, je odšel gor od Eglóna, do Hebróna in so se borili zoper njega,
37 Took it, and destroyed it with the edge of the sword: the king also thereof, and all the towns of that country, and all the souls that dwelt in it: he left not therein any remains: as he had done to Eglon, so did he also to Hebron, putting to the sword all that he found in it.
ga zavzeli in udarili z ostrino meča in njihovega kralja in vsa njihova mesta in vse duše, ki so bile v njem. Nikogar ni pustil preostati, glede na vse, kar je storil Eglónu, temveč ga je popolnoma uničil in vse duše, ki so bile v njem.
38 Returning from thence to Dabir,
Józue se je vrnil in ves Izrael z njim, do Debírja in se boril zoper njega
39 He took it and destroyed it: the king also thereof and all the towns round about he destroyed with the edge of the sword: he left not in it any remains: as he had done to Hebron and Lebna and to their kings, so did he to Dabir and to the king thereof.
in ga zavzel in njegovega kralja in vsa njegova mesta. Udarili so jih z ostrino meča in popolnoma uničili vse duše, ki so bile v njem. Nikogar ni pustil preostati. Kakor je storil Hebrónu, tako je storil Debírju in njegovemu kralju, kakor je storil tudi Libni in njenemu kralju.
40 So Josue conquered all the country of the hills and of the south and of the plain, and of Asedoth, with their kings: he left not any remains therein, but slew all that breathed, as the Lord the God of Israel had commanded him,
Tako je Józue udaril vso hribovito deželo, južno [deželo], [deželo] dolin, izvirov in vse njihove kralje. Ničesar ni pustil preostati, temveč je popolnoma uničil vse, kar je dihalo, kakor je zapovedal Gospod, Izraelov Bog.
41 From Cadesbarne even to Gaza. All the land of Gosen even to Gabaon,
Józue jih je udarjal od Kadeš Barnée, celo do Gaze in vso Gošensko pokrajino, celo do Gibeóna.
42 And all their kings, and their lands he took and wasted at one onset: for the Lord the God of Israel fought for him.
Vse te kralje in njihove dežele je Józue zavzel naenkrat, ker se je Gospod, Izraelov Bog, boril za Izrael.
43 And he returned with all Israel to the place of the camp in Galgal.
In Józue se je vrnil in ves Izrael z njim, v tabor h Gilgálu.
