Judges 21
1 Moreouer, the men of Israel sware in Mizpeh, saying, None of vs shall giue his daughter vnto the Beniamites to wyfe.
A sinovi Izrailjevi bijahu se zakleli u Mispi rekavši: nijedan izmeðu nas da ne da kæeri svoje za ženu sinu Venijaminovu.
2 And the people came vnto ye house of God and abode there till euen before God, and lift vp their voyces, and wept with great lamentation,
Zato otide narod k domu Božijemu, i ostaše ondje do veèera pred Bogom, i podigavši glas svoj plakaše vrlo,
3 And sayde, O Lord God of Israel, why is this come to passe in Israel, that this day one tribe of Israel should want?
I rekoše: zašto se, Gospode Bože Izrailjev, dogodi ovo u Izrailju, danas da nestane jednoga plemena iz Izrailja?
4 And on the morow the people rose vp and made there an altar, and offred burnt offrings and peace offrings.
I sjutradan urani narod, i naèini ondje oltar, i prinesoše žrtve paljenice i žrtve zahvalne.
5 Then the children of Israel said, Who is he among all the tribes of Israel, that came not vp with the Congregation vnto the Lord? for they had made a great othe concerning him that came not vp to the Lord to Mizpeh, saying, Let him die the death.
Tada rekoše sinovi Izrailjevi: ima li ko da nije došao na zbor iz svijeh plemena Izrailjevijeh ka Gospodu? Jer se bijahu teško zakleli za onoga ko ne doðe u Mispu ka Gospodu rekavši: da se pogubi.
6 And the children of Israel were sory for Beniamin their brother, and said, There is one tribe cut off from Israel this day.
Jer se sinovima Izrailjevijem sažali za Venijaminom bratom njihovijem, i rekoše: danas se istrijebi jedno pleme iz Izrailja.
7 How shall we do for wiues to them that remaine, seeing we haue sworne by the Lord, that we will not giue them of our daughters to wiues?
Šta æemo èiniti s onima što su ostali da bi imali žene, kad se zaklesmo Gospodom da im ne damo kæeri svojih za žene?
8 Also they saide, Is there any of the tribes of Israel that came not vp to Mizpeh to the Lord? and beholde, there came none of Iabesh Gilead vnto the hoste and to the Congregation.
Pa rekoše: ima li ko iz plemena Izrailjevijeh da nije došao u Mispu ka Gospodu? I gle, ne bješe došao na vojsku, na zbor, niko iz Javisa Galadova.
9 For when the people were vewed; beholde, none of the inhabitants of Iabesh Gilead were there.
Jer kad se narod prebroji, gle, ne bješe ondje nijednoga od onijeh koji žive u Javisu Galadovu.
10 Therefore the Congregation sent thither twelue thousande men of the most valiant, and commanded them, saying, Goe, and smite the inhabitants of Iabesh Gilead with the edge of the sword, both women, and children.
Zato posla zbor onamo dvanaest tisuæa hrabrijeh ljudi, i zapovjedi im govoreæi: idite i pobijte stanovnike u Javisu Galadovu oštrijem maèem i žene i djecu.
11 And this is it that ye shall do: ye shall vtterly destroye all the males and all the women that haue lien by men.
Ovo æete dakle uèiniti: sve muškinje i sve ženskinje što je poznalo èovjeka pobijte.
12 And they found among the inhabitants of Iabesh Gilead foure hundreth maides, virgins that had knowne no man by lying with any male: and they brought them vnto the hoste to Shiloh, which is in the land of Canaan.
I naðoše meðu stanovnicima Javisa Galadova èetiri stotine djevojaka, koje ne bjehu poznale èovjeka, i dovedoše ih u oko u Silom, koji je u zemlji Hananskoj.
13 Then the whole Congregation sent and spake with the children of Beniamin that were in the rocke of Rimmon, and called peaceably vnto them:
Tada posla sav zbor, te govoriše sinovima Venijaminovijem koji bjehu u stijeni Rimonu, i objaviše im mir.
14 And Beniamin came againe at that time, and they gaue them wiues which they had saued aliue of the women of Iabesh Gilead: but they had not so ynough for them.
Tako se vratiše sinovi Venijaminovi u to vrijeme, i dadoše im žene koje ostaviše u životu izmeðu žena iz Javisa Galadova; ali ih ne bješe dosta za njih.
15 And the people were sorie for Beniamin, because the Lord had made a breach in the tribes of Israel.
A narodu bješe žao Venijamina što Gospod okrnji plemena Izrailjeva.
16 Therefore the Elders of the Congregation said, How shall we doe for wiues to the remnant? for the women of Beniamin are destroyed.
Pa rekoše starješine od zbora: šta æemo èiniti s ovima što su ostali da bi imali žene? jer su izginule žene u plemenu Venijaminovu.
17 And they saide, there must be an inheritance for them that be escaped of Beniamin, that a tribe be not destroyed out of Israel.
Potom rekoše: našljedstvo Venijaminovo pripada onima što su ostali, da se ne bi zatrlo pleme iz Izrailja.
18 Howbeit we may not giue them wiues of our daughters: for the childre of Israel had sworne, saying, Cursed be he that giueth a wise to Beniamin.
A mi im ne možemo dati žena izmeðu kæeri svojih; jer su se zakleli sinovi Izrailjevi rekavši: da je proklet ko da ženu sinovima Venijaminovijem.
19 Therefore they said, Beholde, there is a feast of the Lord euery yere in Shiloh in a place, which is on the Northside of Beth-el, and on the Eastside of the way that goeth vp from Beth-el to Shechem, and on the South of Lebonah.
Potom rekoše: evo, godišnji je praznik Gospodnji u Silomu, koji je sa sjevera Vetilju, k istoku, na putu koji ide od Vetilja u Sihem, i s juga Levoni.
20 Therefore they commanded the children of Beniamin, saying, Goe, and lye in waite in the vineyardes.
I zapovjediše sinovima Venijaminovijem govoreæi: idite, i zasjedite po vinogradima.
21 And when ye see that the daughters of Shiloh come out to dance in dances, then come ye out of the vineyards, and catche you euery man a wife of the daughters of Shiloh, and goe into the land of Beniamin.
I pazite: pa kad izidu kæeri Silomske da igraju, izidite iz vinograda i otmite svaki sebi ženu izmeðu kæeri Silomskih; i idite u zemlju Venijaminovu.
22 And when their fathers or their brethren come vnto vs to complaine, we wil say vnto them, Haue pitie on them for our sakes, because we reserued not to eche man his wife in the warre, and because ye haue not giuen vnto them hitherto, ye haue sinned.
A kad doðu oci njihovi ili braæa njihova k nama da se sude, mi æemo im kazati: smilujte im se nas radi, jer u ovom ratu nijesmo zarobili žene za svakoga njih; a vi im nijeste dali, i tako neæete biti krivi.
23 And the children of Beniamin did so, and tooke wiues of them that danced according to their nomber: which they tooke, and went away, and returned to their inheritance, and repaired the cities and dwelt in them.
Tada sinovi Venijaminovi uèiniše tako, i dovedoše žene prema broju svom izmeðu igraèica koje oteše, i otišavši vratiše se na našljedstvo svoje, i sazidaše opet gradove i naseliše se u njima.
24 So the children of Israel departed thence at that time, euery man to his tribe, and to his familie, and went out from thence euery man to his inheritance.
I tako razidoše se sinovi Izrailjevi odande u ono vrijeme svaki u svoje pleme i u porodicu svoju, i otidoše odande svaki na svoje našljedstvo.
25 In those dayes there was no King in Israel, but euery man did that which was good in his eyes.
U ono vrijeme ne bješe cara u Izrailju; svaki èinjaše što mu bješe drago.
