Judges 8
1 Then the men of Ephraim sayde vnto him, Why hast thou serued vs thus that thou calledst vs not, when thou wentest to fight with the Midianites? and they chode with him sharply.
A ljudi od plemena Jefremova rekoše mu: šta nam to uèini te nas ne pozva kad poðe u boj na Madijane? I vikahu na nj žestoko.
2 To whom he said, What haue I now done in comparison of you? is not the gleaning of grapes of Ephraim better, then the vintage of Abiezer?
A on im reèe: pa šta sam uèinio tako kao vi? nije li pabirèenje Jefremovo bolje nego berba Avijezerova?
3 God hath deliuered into your handes the princes of Midian, Oreb and Zeeb: and what was I able to do in comparison of you? and when he had thus spoken, then their spirits abated toward him.
Vama je u ruke dao Gospod knezove Madijanske, Oriva i Ziva; pa što ja mogoh uèiniti tako kao vi? Tada se utiša duh njihov prema njemu kad tako govori.
4 And Gideon came to Iorden to passe ouer, hee, and the three hundreth men that were with him, weary, yet pursuing them.
A kad Gedeon doðe na Jordan, prijeðe preko njega s trista ljudi koji bjehu s njim, a bjehu umorni goneæi.
5 And he said vnto the men of Succoth, Giue, I pray you, morsels of bread vnto the people that follow me (for they be wearie) that I may follow after Zebah, and Zalmunna Kings of Midian.
Pa reèe ljudima Sokoæanima: dajte nekoliko hljebova narodu koji ide za mnom, jer su umorni, a ja gonim Zeveja i Salmana careve Madijanske.
6 And the princes of Succoth sayde, Are the handes of Zebah and Zalmunna nowe in thine hads, that we should giue bread vnto thine army?
A glavari Sokotski rekoše mu: je li pesnica Zevejeva i Salmanova veæ u tvojoj ruci da damo hljeba tvojoj vojsci?
7 Gideon then sayde, Therefore when the Lord hath deliuered Zebah and Zalmunna into mine hand, I will teare your flesh with thornes of the wildernes and with breers.
A Gedeon im reèe: kad mi Bog preda Zeveja i Salmana u ruku, tada æu pomlatiti tjelesa vaša trnjem iz ove pustinje i draèom.
8 And he went vp thence to Penuel, and spake vnto them likewise, and the men of Penuel answered him, as the men of Succoth answered.
I otide odande u Fanuil, i reèe Fanuiljanima isto onako, a oni mu odgovoriše kao što odgovoriše ljudi u Sokotu.
9 And he sayd also vnto the men of Penuel, When I come againe in peace, I will breake downe this towre.
Zato i ljudima Fanuiljanima reèe: kad se vratim zdravo, razvaliæu tu kulu.
10 Now Zebah and Zalmunna were in Karkor, and their hostes with them, about fifteene thousande, all that were left of all the hostes of them of the East: for there was slaine an hundreth and twentie thousand men, that drew swordes.
A Zevej i Salman bijahu u Karkoru, i vojska njihova s njima, oko petnaest tisuæa, što ih god osta od sve vojske istoène; a pobijenijeh bijaše sto i dvadeset tisuæa ljudi koji mahahu maèem.
11 And Gideon went through them that dwelt in Tabernacles on the East side of Nobah and Iogbehah, and smote the hoste: for the hoste was carelesse.
I otide Gedeon preko onijeh što žive pod šatorima, s istoka Novi i Jogveji, i udari na vojsku kad vojska stajaše bezbrižna.
12 And when Zebah and Zalmunna fled, hee followed after them, and tooke the two kings of Midian, Zebah and Zalmunna, and discomfited all the hoste.
A Zevej i Salman pobjegoše, a on ih potjera, i uhvati dva cara Madijanska, Zeveja i Salmana, i raspudi svu vojsku.
13 So Gideon the sonne of Ioash returned from battel, the sunne being yet hie,
I vrati se Gedeon sin Joasov iz boja prije sunèanoga roðaja.
14 And tooke a seruant of the me of Succoth, and inquired of him: and he wrote to him the princes of Succoth and the Elders thereof, euen seuentie and seuen men.
I uhvati momka iz Sokota, i ispitiva ga; a on mu popisa knezove Sokotske i starješine, sedamdeset i sedam ljudi.
15 And he came vnto the men of Succoth, and sayd, Behold Zebah and Zalmunna, by whome ye vpbrayded me, saying, Are the hands of Zebah and Zalmunna already in thine hands, that we should giue bread vnto thy weary men?
Pa kad doðe k Sokoæanima, reèe: evo Zeveja i Salmana, za koje mi se rugaste govoreæi: je li pesnica Zevejeva i Salmanova veæ u tvojoj ruci, da damo hljeba umornijem ljudima tvojim?
16 Then he tooke the Elders of the citie, and thornes of the wildernes and breers, and did teare the men of Succoth with them.
I uzevši starješine onoga mjesta i trnja iz pustinje i draèe dade na njima ugled Sokoæanima.
17 Also he brake downe the towre of Penuel, and slew the men of the citie.
I kulu Fanuilsku razvali i pobi ljude tamošnje.
18 Then saide he vnto Zebah and Zalmunna, What maner of men were they, whom ye slew at Tabor? and they answered, As thou art, so were they: euery one was like the children of a King.
Potom reèe Zeveju i Salmanu: kaki bjehu ljudi koje pobiste na Tavoru? A oni rekoše: taki kao ti; svaki bješe na oèima kao carski sin.
19 And he said, They were my brethren, euen my mothers children: as the Lord liueth, if ye had saued their liues, I would not slay you.
A on reèe: to bjehu moja braæa, sinovi moje matere. Tako Gospod bio živ! da ste ih ostavili u životu, ne bih vas pogubio.
20 Then he sayde vnto Iether his first borne sonne, Vp, and slay them: but the boy drew not his sword: for he feared, because he was yet yong.
Tada reèe Jeteru prvencu svojemu: ustani, pogubi ih. Ali dijete ne izvuèe maèa svojega, jer se bojaše, jer bješe još dijete.
21 Then Zebah and Zalmunna sayd, Rise thou, and fall vpon vs: for as the man is, so is his strength. And Gideon arose and slew Zebah and Zalmunna, and tooke away the ornamentes, that were on their camels neckes.
Tada reèe Zevej i Salman: ustani ti, uloži na nas; jer kakav je èovjek onaka mu je i snaga. I ustavši Gedeon pogubi Zeveja i Salmana, i uze mjeseèiæe koji bijahu o vratovima kamila njihovijeh.
22 Then the men of Israel sayd vnto Gideon, Reigne thou ouer vs, both thou, and thy sonne, and thy sonnes sonne: for thou hast deliuered vs out of the hand of Midian.
Potom rekoše Izrailjci Gedeonu: budi nam gospodar ti i sin tvoj i sin sina tvojega, jer si nas izbavio iz ruke Madijanske.
23 And Gideon sayde vnto them, I will not reigne ouer you, neither shall my childe reigne ouer you, but the Lord shall reigne ouer you.
A Gedeon im reèe: neæu vam ja biti gospodar, niti æe vam sin moj biti gospodar; Gospod æe vam biti Gospodar.
24 Againe Gideon sayd vnto them, I would desire a request of you, that you would giue mee euery man the earings of his pray (for they had golden earings because they were Ismaelites)
Još im reèe Gedeon: jedno æu iskati od vas: da mi date svaki grivnu od plijena svojega. A grivne imahu zlatne, jer bjehu Ismailjci.
25 And they answered, Wee will giue them. And they spred a garment, and did cast therein euery man the earings of his pray.
I odgovoriše: daæemo drage volje. I razastrvši haljinu bacaše na nju grivne, svaki od plijena svojega.
26 And the weight of the golden earings that he required, was a thousande and seuen hundreth shekels of golde, beside collers and iewels, and purple rayment that was on the kings of Midian, and beside the cheynes that were about their camels neckes.
I bješe na mjeru zlatnijeh grivana što iziska tisuæa i sedam stotina sikala zlata, osim mjeseèiæa i lanèiæa i haljina skerletnijeh, što nošahu carevi Madijanski, i osim litarova, što bijahu oko vrata kamila njihovijeh.
27 And Gideon made an Ephod thereof, and put it in Ophrah his citie: and all Israel went a whoring there after it, which was the destruction of Gideon and his house.
I Gedeon naèini od toga opleæak, i ostavi ga u svojem gradu Ofri; i ondje sav Izrailj stade èiniti preljubu za njim, i bi Gedeonu i domu njegovu zamka.
28 Thus was Midian brought lowe before the children of Israel, so that they lift vp their heads no more: and the countrey was in quietnes fourtie yeeres in the dayes of Gideon.
Tako biše pokoreni Madijani pred sinovima Izrailjevijem, i više ne digoše glave. I zemlja bi mirna èetrdeset godina za vijeka Gedeonova.
29 Then Ierubbaal the sonne of Ioash went, and dwelt in his owne house.
I otišav Jeroval sin Joasov osta u svojoj kuæi.
30 And Gideon had seuentie sonnes begotten of his body: for he had many wiues.
A imaše Gedeon sedamdeset sinova, koji izidoše od bedara njegovijeh, jer imaše mnogo žena.
31 And his concubine that was in Shechem, bare him a sonne also, whose name he called Abimelech.
A inoèa njegova, koja bijaše u Sihemu, i ona mu rodi sina, i nadje mu ime Avimeleh.
32 So Gideon the sonne of Ioash dyed in a good age, and was buried in the sepulchre of Ioash his father in Ophrah, of the father of ye Ezrites.
Potom umrije Gedeon sin Joasov u dobroj starosti, i bi pogreben u grobu Joasa oca svojega Avijezerita u Ofri.
33 But when Gideon was dead, the children of Israel turned away and went a whoring after Baalim, and made Baal-berith their God.
A kad umrije Gedeon, opet sinovi Izrailjevi èiniše preljubu za Valima, i postaviše sebi Val-Verita za boga.
34 And the children of Israel remembred not the Lord their God, which had deliuered the out of the hands of all their enemies on euery side.
I ne sjeæaše se sinovi Izrailjevi Gospoda Boga svojega, koji ih je izbavio iz ruku svijeh neprijatelja njihovijeh unaokolo,
35 Neither shewed they mercy on the house of Ierubbaal, or Gideon, according to al the goodnesse which he had shewed vnto Israel.
I ne uèiniše milosti domu Jerovala Gedeona prema svemu dobru što je on uèinio Izrailju.
