< Judges 7 >

1 And Jerubba‘al (he [is] Gideon) rises early, and all the people who [are] with him, and they encamp by the well of Harod, and the camp of Midian has been on the south of him, on the height of Moreh, in the valley.
I urani Jeroval, to je Gedeon, i sav narod što bijaše s njim, i stadoše u oko kod izvora Aroda; a vojska Madijanska bješe mu sa sjevera kraj gore Moreha u dolini.
2 And YHWH says to Gideon, “The people who [are] with you [are] too many for My giving Midian into their hand, lest Israel beautify itself against Me, saying, My hand has given salvation to me;
A Gospod reèe Gedeonu: mnogo je naroda s tobom, zato im neæu dati Madijana u ruke, da se ne bi hvalio Izrailj suprot meni govoreæi: moja me ruka izbavi.
3 and now, please call in the ears of the people, saying, Whoever [is] afraid and trembling, let him turn back and go early from Mount Gilead”; and there return twenty-two thousand of the people, and ten thousand have been left.
Nego sada oglasi da èuje narod i reci: ko se boji i koga je strah, neka se vrati i nek ide odmah ka gori Galadu. I vrati se iz naroda dvadeset i dvije tisuæe; a deset tisuæa osta.
4 And YHWH says to Gideon, “The people [are] yet too many; bring them down to the water, and I refine him for you there; and it has been, he of whom I say to you, This goes with you—he goes with you; and any of whom I say to you, This does not go with you—he does not go.”
Opet reèe Gospod Gedeonu: još je mnogo naroda; svedi ih na vodu, i ondje æu ti ih prebrati; za kojega ti god reèem: taj neka ide s tobom, neka ide s tobom; a za koga ti god reèem: taj neka ne ide s tobom, neka ne ide.
5 And he brings the people down to the water, and YHWH says to Gideon, “Everyone who laps of the water with his tongue as the dog laps—you set him apart; also everyone who bows on his knees to drink.”
I svede narod na vodu; a Gospod reèe Gedeonu: koji stane laptati jezikom vodu, kao što lapæe pas, metni ga na stranu; tako i svakoga koji klekne na koljena da pije.
6 And the number of those lapping with their hand to their mouth is three hundred men, and all the rest of the people have bowed down on their knees to drink water.
I onijeh koji laptaše, rukom svojom k ustima prinesavši vodu, bješe tri stotine ljudi; a sav ostali narod kleèe na koljena svoja da piju vode.
7 And YHWH says to Gideon, “I save you by the three hundred men who are lapping, and have given Midian into your hand, and all the people go, each to his place.”
Tada reèe Gospod Gedeonu: s tijeh trista ljudi koji laptaše vodu izbaviæu vas i predaæu ti u ruke Madijane; neka dakle odlazi sav ovaj narod svaki na svoje mjesto.
8 And the people take the provision in their hand, and their horns, and he has sent every man of Israel away, each to his tents; and he has kept hold on the three hundred men, and the camp of Midian has been by him at the lower part of the valley.
I narod uze brašnjenice i trube; i Gedeon otpusti sve ljude Izrailjce da idu svaki u svoj šator, a onijeh trista ljudi zadrža. A oko Madijanski bijaše niže njega u dolini.
9 And it comes to pass, on that night, that YHWH says to him, “Rise, go down into the camp, for I have given it into your hand;
I onu noæ reèe mu Gospod: ustani, siði u oko, jer ti ga dadoh u ruke.
10 and if you are afraid to go down—go down, you and your young man Phurah, to the camp,
Ako li se bojiš sam siæi, siði u oko sa Furom momkom svojim,
11 and you have heard what they speak, and afterward your hands are strengthened, and you have gone down against the camp.” And he goes down, he and his young man Phurah, to the extremity of the fifties who [are] in the camp;
I èuæeš šta govore, pa æe ti osiliti ruke i udariæeš na oko. I siðe on i Fura momak njegov do kraja vojske koja bijaše u okolu.
12 and Midian, and Amalek, and all the sons of the east are lying in the valley, as the locust for multitude, and of their camels there is no number, as sand which [is] on the seashore for multitude.
A Madijani i Amalici i sav narod istoèni ležahu po dolini kao skakavci, tako ih bješe mnogo; i kamilama njihovijem ne bješe broja; bješe ih mnogo kao pijeska po brijegu morskom.
13 And Gideon comes in, and behold, a man is recounting a dream to his companion, and says, “Behold, I have dreamed a dream, and behold, a cake of barley-bread is turning itself over into the camp of Midian, and it comes to the tent, and strikes it, and it falls, and turns it upwards, and the tent has fallen.”
I kad doðe Gedeon, a to jedan pripovijedaše drugu svojemu san, i govoraše: gle, usnih, a to peèen hljeb jeèmen kotrljaše se k okolu Madijanskom i doðe do šatora i stade udarati o njih, te padahu, i ispremeta ih, i popadaše šatori.
14 And his companion answers and says, “This is nothing except the sword of Gideon son of Joash, a man of Israel; God has given Midian and all the camp into his hand.”
A drug mu odgovori i reèe: to nije drugo nego maè Gedeona sina Joasova èovjeka Izrailjca; predao mu je u ruke Bog Madijane i sav ovaj oko.
15 And it comes to pass, when Gideon hears the narration of the dream and its interpretation, that he bows himself, and turns back to the camp of Israel, and says, “Rise, for YHWH has given the camp of Midian into your hand.”
I kad Gedeon èu kako onaj pripovjedi san i kako ga ovaj istumaèi, pokloni se i vrati se u oko Izrailjski i reèe: ustajte, jer vam dade Gospod u ruke oko Madijanski.
16 And he divides the three hundred men [into] three detachments, and puts horns into the hand of all of them, and empty pitchers, and lamps within the pitchers.
Potom razdijeli trista ljudi u tri èete, i dade svakome po trubu u ruku i po prazan žban i po luè u žban.
17 And he says to them, “Look at me, and thus do; and behold, I am coming into the extremity of the camp—and it has been—as I do so you do;
I reèe im: na mene gledajte, pa tako èinite; gle, je æu doæi na kraj okola, pa šta ja ušèinim, to èinite.
18 and I have blown with a horn—I and all who [are] with me, and you have blown with horns, even you, around all the camp, and have said, For YHWH and for Gideon!”
Kad ja zatrubim u trubu i svi koji budu sa mnom, tada i vi zatrubite u trube oko svega okola, i vièite: maè Gospodnji i Gedeonov.
19 And Gideon comes—and the hundred men who [are] with him—into the extremity of the camp, [at] the beginning of the middle watch (they had just posted watchmen), and they blow with horns—also dashing in pieces the pitchers which [are] in their hand;
I doðe Gedeon i sto ljudi što bijahu s njim na kraj okola, u poèetak srednje straže, istom bijahu promijenili stražu; a oni zatrubiše u trube i polupaše žbanove koje imahu u rukama.
20 and the three detachments blow with horns, and break the pitchers, and keep hold with their left hand on the lamps, and with their right hand on the horns to blow, and they cry, “The sword of YHWH and of Gideon!”
Tako tri èete zatrubiše u trube i polupaše žbanove, i držahu u lijevoj ruci luèeve a u desnoj trube trubeæi, i povikaše: maè Gospodnji i Gedeonov.
21 And they each stand in his place, around the camp, and all the camp runs, and they shout, and flee;
I stadoše svaki na svom mjestu oko vojske; a sva se vojska smete i stadoše vikati i bježati.
22 and the three hundred blow the horns, and YHWH sets the sword of each against his companion, even through all the camp; and the camp flees to Beth-Shittah, at Zererath, to the border of Abel-Meholah, by Tabbath.
A kad zatrubiše u trube onijeh tri stotine, Gospod obrati maè svakome na druga njegova po svemu okolu, te pobježe vojska do Vet-Asete, u Zererat, do obale Avel-meolske kod Tavata.
23 And the men of Israel are called from Naphtali, and from Asher, and from all Manasseh, and pursue after Midian.
A Izrailjci iz plemena Neftalimova i Asirova i iz svega plemena Manasijina stekoše se i goniše Madijane.
24 And Gideon has sent messengers into all the hill-country of Ephraim, saying, “Come down to meet Midian, and capture the waters from them as far as Beth-Barah, and the Jordan”; and every man of Ephraim is called, and they capture the waters as far as Beth-Barah, and the Jordan,
I Gedeon posla glasnike po svoj gori Jefremovoj govoreæi: siðite pred Madijane i uhvatite im vode do Vetvare duž Jordana. I stekoše se svi ljudi iz plemena Jefremova i uhvatiše vode do Vetvare duž Jordana.
25 and they capture two of the heads of Midian, Oreb and Zeeb, and slay Oreb at the rock of Oreb, and they have slain Zeeb at the wine-vat of Zeeb, and they pursue into Midian; and they have brought the heads of Oreb and Zeeb to Gideon beyond the Jordan.
I uhvatiše dva kneza Madijanska, Oriva i Ziva, i ubiše Oriva na stijeni Orivovoj, a Ziva ubiše kod tijeska Zivova; i goniše Madijane, i donesoše glavu Orivovu i Zivovu ka Gedeonu preko Jordana.
