Joshua 2
1 And Joshua son of Nun silently sends two men, spies, from Shittim, saying, “Go, see the land—and Jericho”; and they go and come into the house of a woman, a harlot, and her name [is] Rahab, and they lie down there.
Nunov sin Józue je iz Šitíma na skrivaj poslal ogledovat dva moža, rekoč: »Pojdita, poglejta deželo, celo Jeriho.« Odšla sta ter prišla v hišo pocestnice, po imenu Rahába in tam prenočila.
2 And it is told to the king of Jericho, saying, “Behold, men have come in here tonight, from the sons of Israel, to search the land.”
Kralju Jerihe je bilo povedano, rekoč: »Glej, nocoj sta prišla sèm moža izmed Izraelovih otrok, da preiščeta deželo.«
3 And the king of Jericho sends to Rahab, saying, “Bring out the men who are coming to you, who have come into your house, for they have come to search the entirety of the land.”
Kralj Jerihe je poslal k Rahábi, rekoč: »Privedi naprej moža, ki sta prišla k tebi, ki sta vstopila v tvojo hišo, kajti prišla sta, da bi preiskala vso deželo.«
4 And the woman takes the two men, and hides them, and says thus: “The men came to me, and I have not known where they [are] from;
Ženska je vzela dva moža ter ju skrila in rekla tako: »K meni sta prišla moža, toda nisem vedela od kod sta bila.
5 and it comes to pass—the gate is to [be] shut—in the dark, and the men have gone out; I have not known to where the men have gone; pursue, hurry after them, for you overtake them”;
Pripetilo se je okoli časa zapiranja velikih vrat, ko je bilo temno, da sta moža odšla ven. Kam sta moža odšla, ne vem. Hitro ju zasledujte, kajti dohiteli ju boste.«
6 and she has caused them to go up on the roof, and hides them with the flax wood, which is arranged for her on the roof.
Toda ona ju je privedla gor na streho hiše in ju skrila s stebli lana, ki jih je razvrstila po strehi.
7 And the men have pursued after them the way of the Jordan, by the fords, and they have shut the gate afterward when the pursuers have gone out after them.
Možje so ju zasledovali po poti k Jordanu, k prehodom in takoj, ko so tisti, ki so ju zasledovali, odšli ven, so zaprli velika vrata.
8 And before they lie down, she has gone up to them on the roof,
Preden sta se ulegla, je prišla k njima na streho
9 and she says to the men, “I have known that YHWH has given the land to you, and that your terror has fallen on us, and that all the inhabitants of the land have melted at your presence.
in možema rekla: »Vem, da vam je Gospod dal to deželo in da je vaša strahota padla na nas in da vsi prebivalci dežele zaradi vas slabijo.
10 For we have heard how YHWH dried up the waters of the Red Sea at your presence, in your going out of Egypt, and that which you have done to the two kings of the Amorite who [are] beyond the Jordan; to Sihon and to Og whom you devoted.
Kajti slišali smo, kako je Gospod za vas posušil vode Rdečega morja, ko ste prišli iz Egipta, in kaj ste storili dvema kraljema Amoréjcev, ki sta bila na drugi strani Jordana, Sihónu in Ogu, ki ste jih popolnoma uničili.
11 And we hear, and our heart melts, and there has not stood anymore spirit in [any] man from your presence, for He, your God YHWH, [is] God in the heavens above and on the earth below.
Takoj, ko smo slišali te stvari, so se naša srca stopila niti tam zaradi vas ni ostalo nič več poguma v kateremkoli človeku, kajti Gospod, vaš Bog, on je Bog v nebesih zgoraj in na zemlji spodaj.
12 And now, please swear to me by YHWH—because I have done kindness with you—that you have done, even you, kindness with the house of my father, and have given a true token to me,
Zdaj torej, prosim vaju, prisezita mi pri Gospodu, ker sem vama izkazala prijaznost, da bosta tudi vidva izkazala prijaznost hiši mojega očeta in mi dala zanesljivo znamenje.
13 and have kept alive my father, and my mother, and my brothers, and my sisters, and all that they have, and have delivered our souls from death.”
In da boste mojega očeta rešili živega in mojo mater, moje brate, moje sestre in vse, kar imajo in naša življenja osvobodili pred smrtjo.«
14 And the men say to her, “Our soul to die for yours; if you do not declare this—our matter, then it has been, in YHWH’s giving this land to us, that we have done kindness and truth with you.”
Moža sta ji odgovorila: »Najina življenja za vaša, če ne izustiš te naše stvari. Zgodilo se bo, ko nam Gospod da deželo, da bomo s teboj postopali prijazno in zvesto.«
15 And she causes them to go down by a rope through the window, for her house [is] in the side of the wall, and she [is] dwelling in the wall;
Potem ju je po vrvi spustila skozi okno, kajti njena hiša je bila na mestnem obzidju in prebivala je na obzidju.
16 and she says to them, “Go to the mountain, lest the pursuers come on you; and you have been hidden there three days until the turning back of the pursuers, and afterward you go on your way.”
Rekla jima je: »Spravita se do gore, da vaju ne bi srečali zasledovalci in tam se skrivajta tri dni, dokler se zasledovalci ne vrnejo in potem lahko gresta svojo pot.«
17 And the men say to her, “We are acquitted of this, your oath, which you have caused us to swear:
Moža sta ji rekla: »Midva bova brez krivde glede te tvoje prisege, s katero si naju prisegla.
18 behold, we are coming into the land, bind this line of scarlet thread to the window by which you have caused us to go down, and gather your father, and your mother, and your brothers, and all the house of your father to you, to the house;
Glej, ko pridemo v deželo, boš to škrlatno vrv privezala na okno, skozi katero si naju spustila dol in domov k sebi boš privedla svojega očeta, svojo mater, svoje brate in vso družino svojega očeta.
19 and it has been, anyone who goes out from the doors of your house outside, his blood [is] on his head, and we are innocent; and anyone who is with you in the house, his blood [is] on our head, if a hand is on him;
In zgodilo se bo, da kdorkoli bo šel ven skozi vrata tvoje hiše na ulico, bo njegova kri na njegovi glavi, midva pa bova brez krivde. In kdorkoli bo s teboj v hiši, njegova kri bo na najini glavi, če bo katerakoli roka nad njim.
20 and if you declare this—our matter, then we have been acquitted from your oath which you have caused us to swear.”
Če izustiš to našo stvar, potem bova prosta tvoje prisege, s katero si naju primorala priseči.«
21 And she says, “According to your words, so it [is]”; and she sends them away, and they go; and she binds the scarlet line to the window.
Rekla je: »Glede na vajine besede, tako naj bo to.« Poslala ju je proč in sta odšla in na okno je privezala škrlatno vrv.
22 And they go, and come to the mountain, and abide there three days until the pursuers have turned back; and the pursuers seek in all the way, and have not found.
Odšla sta in prišla h gori ter tam ostala tri dni, dokler se zasledovalci niso vrnili. Zasledovalci so ju iskali po vsej poti, toda niso ju našli.
23 And the two men turn back, and come down from the hill, and pass over, and come to Joshua son of Nun, and recount to him all that has come on them;
Tako sta se oba moža vrnila in spustila z gore, šla čez in prišla k Nunovemu sinu Józuetu in mu povedala vse stvari, ki so se jima pripetile.
24 and they say to Joshua, “Surely YHWH has given all the land into our hand; and also, all the inhabitants of the land have melted at our presence.”
Józuetu sta rekla: »Resnično, Gospod je v naše roke izročil vso deželo, kajti celo vsi prebivalci dežele zaradi nas slabijo.«
