Judges 19
1 Also in those dayes, when there was no king in Israel, a certaine Leuite dwelt on the side of mount Ephraim, and tooke to wife a concubine out of Beth-lehem Iudah,
U ono vrijeme kad u Izraelu još ne bijaše kralja, živio neki čovjek, levit, kao došljak na kraju Efrajimove gore. Uzeo on za inoču ženu iz Judina Betlehema.
2 And his concubine played ye whore there, and went away from him vnto her fathers house to Beth-lehem Iudah, and there continued the space of foure moneths.
Rasrdivši se jednom, njegova ga inoča ostavi i vrati se u očevu kuću u Judin Betlehem i bila je ondje neko vrijeme, kakva četiri mjeseca.
3 And her husband arose and went after her, to speake friendly vnto her, and to bring her againe: he had also his seruant with him, and a couple of asses: and she brought him vnto her fathers house, and when the yong womans father sawe him, he reioyced of his comming.
Njen muž ode k njoj da je urazumi i dovede natrag; imao je sa sobom slugu i dva magarca. Dok je prilazio kući oca mlade žene, opazi ga tast i veselo mu iziđe u susret.
4 And his father in lawe, the yong womans father reteined him: and he abode with him three dayes: so they did eate and drinke, and lodged there.
Tast, otac mlade žene, zadrži ga tri dana kod sebe te su jeli, pili i noćivali.
5 And when the fourth day came, they arose earely in the morning, and he prepared to depart: then the yong womans father said vnto his sonne in lawe, Comfort thine heart with a morsel of bread, and then go your way.
Četvrtoga dana uraniše; levit se spremao da ide, kad otac mlade žene reče zetu: “Okrijepi se zalogajem kruha, pa onda idite.”
6 So they sate downe, and did eate and drinke both of them together. And the yong womans father said vnto the man, Be content, I pray thee, and tary all night, and let thine heart be merie.
I tako sjedoše te su obojica jela i pila, a onda otac mlade žene reče čovjeku: “Hajde, ostani još noćas i proveseli se!”
7 And when the man rose vp to depart, his father in lawe was earnest: therefore he returned, and lodged there.
A kad čovjek ustade da pođe, tast uze navaljivati na njega te on još jednom ondje prenoći.
8 And he arose vp earely the fifth day to depart, and the yong womans father saide, Comfort thine heart, I pray thee: and they taryed vntill after midday, and they both did eate.
Petoga dana levit urani da krene, ali mu otac mlade žene reče: “Okrijepi se najprije!” Tako su proveli vrijeme jedući zajedno dok se nije nagnuo dan.
9 Afterwarde when the man arose to depart with his concubine and his seruant, his father in lawe, the yong womans father said vnto him, Beholde nowe, the day draweth towarde euen: I pray you, tary all night: beholde, the sunne goeth to rest: lodge here, that thine heart may be merie, and to morowe get you earely vpon your way, and goe to thy tent.
Muž ustade da ide, s inočom i slugom, kad mu tast, otac mlade žene, reče: “Evo se dan nagnuo k večeru. Prenoći još ovdje i proveseli se, pa sutra uranite na put i vratite se svom šatoru.”
10 But the man would not tarry, but arose and departed, and came ouer against Iebus, (which is Ierusalem) and his two asses laden, and his concubine were with him.
Ali čovjek ne htjede prenoćiti nego ustade i krenu. Tako je došao do pred Jebus, to jest Jeruzalem. S njim su bila dva osamarena magarca, inoča i sluga.
11 When they were neere to Iebus, the day was sore spent, and the seruant said vnto his master, Come, I pray thee, and let vs turne into this citie of the Iebusites, and lodge all night there.
Kad su bili blizu Jeruzalema, dan se već jako nagnuo, pa sluga reče svome gospodaru: “Hajde da se svratimo u taj jebusejski grad da tu prenoćimo.”
12 And his master answered him, We will not turne into the citie of strangers that are not of the children of Israel, but we will goe forth to Gibeah.
Ali mu gospodar odgovori: “Nećemo se svraćati u grad tuđinaca koji nisu Izraelci, nego ćemo ići do Gibee.”
13 And he said vnto his seruant, Come, and let vs drawe neere to one of these places, that wee may lodge in Gibeah or in Ramah.
Još reče sluzi: “Hajde, požurimo se da stignemo u koje od tih mjesta gdje ćemo prenoćiti, u Gibeu ili Ramu.”
14 So they went forward vpon their way, and the sunne went downe vpon them neere to Gibeah, which is in Beniamin.
I prođoše, nastavljajući put. Kad su stigli pred Benjaminovu Gibeu, sunce je zapadalo.
15 Then they turned thither to goe in and lodge in Gibeah: and when he came, he sate him downe in a streete of the citie: for there was no man that tooke them into his house to lodging.
Oni skrenuše onamo da prenoće u Gibei. Ušavši, levit sjede na gradskom trgu, ali ne bijaše nikoga da ih primi u kuću da prenoće.
16 And beholde, there came an old man from his work out of the field at euen, and the man was of mount Ephraim, but dwelt in Gibeah: and the men of the place were the children of Iemini.
I dođe neki starac koji se predvečer vraćao s posla u polju. Bijaše to čovjek iz Efrajimove gore; življaše u Gibei kao došljak, a svi žitelji toga mjesta bijahu Benjaminovci.
17 And when he had lift vp his eyes, he sawe a wayfairing man in the streetes of the citie: then this olde man sayde, Whither goest thou, and whence camest thou?
Podigavši oči, ugleda putnika na gradskom trgu: “Odakle dolaziš i kamo ćeš?” - upita ga starac.
18 And hee answered him, Wee came from Beth-lehem Iudah, vnto the side of Mout Ephraim: from thence am I: and I went to Beth-lehem Iudah, and go now to the house of the Lord: and no man receiueth mee to house,
A on mu odgovori: “Idemo od Judina Betlehema, na kraj Efrajimove gore. Ja sam odande. Išao sam u Judin Betlehem i vraćam se kući, ali nema nikoga da me primi k sebi u kuću.
19 Although we haue straw and prouader for our asses, and also bread and wine for me and thine handmayde, and for the boy that is with thy seruant: we lacke nothing.
Imam i slame i krme za svoje magarce, a i kruha i vina za sebe, za svoju ženu i za momka koji prati mene, tvoga slugu. Imamo svega dosta.”
20 And the olde man sayde, Peace bee with thee: as for all that thou lackest, shalt thou finde with me: onely abide not in the streete al night.
“Mir s tobom i dobro mi došao”, odgovori starac. “Moja je briga što ti je potrebno, samo nemoj noćiti na trgu.”
21 So he brought him into his house, and gaue fodder vnto the asses: and they washed their feete, and did eate and drinke.
I uvede ga u svoju kuću i baci krme magarcima. Putnici su oprali noge, a onda jeli i pili.
22 And as they were making their hearts merie, beholde, the men of the citie, wicked men beset the house round about, and smote at the doore, and spake to this olde man the master of the house saying, Bring forth the man that came into thine house that we may knowe him.
Dok su se oni krijepili, gle, neki građani, opaki ljudi, okružiše kuću i, lupajući svom snagom o vrata, rekoše starcu, gospodaru kuće: “Izvedi toga čovjeka što je ušao u tvoju kuću da ga se namilujemo.”
23 And this man the master of ye house went out vnto the, and said vnto them, Nay my brethre, do not so wickedly, I pray you: seeing that this man is come into mine house, do not this villenie.
Tad iziđe domaćin iz kuće i reče im: “Ne, braćo moja, ne činite zla. Taj je čovjek ušao u moju kuću, zato ne činite bezakonja.
24 Behold, here is my daughter, a virgine, and his concubine: them wil I bring out nowe, and humble them, and doe with them what seemeth you good: but to this man doe not this villenie.
Evo, moja je kći djevica, prepustit ću vam je. Činite od nje što vam drago, ali ovom čovjeku ne činite bezakonja.”
25 But the men woulde not hearken to him: therefore ye man tooke his concubine, and brought her out vnto them: and they knewe her and abused her all the night vnto the morning: and when the day began to spring, they let her goe.
Ljudi ga ne htjedoše poslušati. Tad onaj čovjek uze inoču te im je izvede. Oni su je silovali i zlostavljali svu noć do jutra, a kad je zora zabijeljela, pustiše je.
26 So the woman came in the dawning of the day, and fell downe at the doore of the mans house where her Lord was, till the light day.
Pred zoru žena dođe i pade na ulaz kuće onog čovjeka gdje je bio njen gospodar i ležala je ondje dok se nije razdanilo.
27 And her lorde arose in the morning, and opened the doores of the house, and went out to goe his way, and beholde, the woman his concubine was dead at the doore of the house and her handes lay vpon the thresholde.
Njen je gospodar ujutro ustao, otvorio kućna vrata te izišao da nastavi put, kad spazi ženu, svoju inoču, kako leži na kućnim vratima s rukama na pragu.
28 And hee said vnto her, Vp and let vs goe: but shee answered not. Then he tooke her vp vpon the asse, and the man rose vp, and went vnto his place.
“Ustani, idemo!” - reče joj. Ali ne bijaše odgovora. Onda je uze, natovari na magarca i krenu na put da se vrati kući.
29 And whe he was come to his house, he took a knife, and laid hand on his concubine, and deuided her in pieces with her bones into twelue parts, and sent her through all quarters of Israel.
Kada je došao kući, trže nož i uze mrtvo tijelo inočino, rasiječe ga, ud po ud, na dvanaest dijelova te ih razasla u sve krajeve Izraela.
30 And all that saw it, said, There was no such thing done or seene since the time that the children of Israel came vp from the lande of Egypt vnto this day: consider the matter, consult and giue sentence.
I tko god vidje reče: “Ovakvo što se nije dogodilo od dana kada su Izraelci izašli iz Egipta do današnjeg dana. Valja o tome promisliti, vijećati i govoriti.”
