Joshua 9
1 And it was when heard all the kings who [were] on [the] other side of the Jordan in the hill country and in the Shephelah and in all [the] coast of the sea great to [the] front of Lebanon the Hittite[s] and the Amorite[s] the Canaanite[s] the Perizzite[s] the Hivite[s] and the Jebusite[s].
O tim su događajima čuli svi kraljevi s onu stranu Jordana - u Gorju, u Šefeli i duž čitave obale Velikoga mora sve do Libanona: Hetiti, Amorejci, Kanaanci, Perižani, Hivijci, Jebusejci -
2 And they gathered together all together to wage war with Joshua and with Israel mouth one.
pa se svi udružiše da složno udare protiv Jošue i Izraela.
3 And [the] inhabitants of Gibeon they heard [that] which he had done Joshua to Jericho and to Ai.
A stanovnici Gibeona, poučeni onim što Jošua učini Jerihonu i Aju,
4 And they acted also they with cunning and they went and they acted as ambassadors and they took sacks worn out for donkeys their and skin-bottles of wine worn out and split and tied up.
dosjete se lukavstvu. Uzmu hiniti da su putnici: bace na svoje magarce stare vreće i vinske mješine, poderane i zakrpane.
5 And sandals worn out and patched [were] on feet their and garments worn out [were] on them and all [the] bread of provision[s] their it was dried up it was crumbs.
Obuli su na noge rabljenu i pokrpanu obuću i vrgli na se staru odjeću. Sav kruh što su ga ponijeli na put bijaše suh i razdrobljen.
6 And they went to Joshua to the camp Gilgal and they said to him and to [the] man of Israel from a land distant we have come and therefore make to us a covenant.
Stigoše Jošui u gilgalski tabor i rekoše njemu i ljudima Izraelcima: “Dolazimo iz daleke zemlje, sklopite savez s nama.”
7 (And he said *Q(K)*) [the] man of Israel to the Hivite[s] perhaps in midst my you [are] dwelling and how? (will I make *Q(k)*) to you a covenant.
Ali ljudi Izraelci kažu tim Hivijcima: “Tko zna ne živite li možda među nama? Kako ćemo, dakle, sklopiti savez s vama?”
8 And they said to Joshua [are] servants your we and he said to them Joshua who? [are] you and from where? do you come.
A oni odgovore Jošui: “Tvoje smo sluge!” Jošua ih upita: “Tko ste i odakle dolazite?”
9 And they said to him from a land distant very they have come servants your to [the] name of Yahweh God your for we have heard [the] report of him and all that he did in Egypt.
Odgovore: “Daleka je zemlja iz koje dolaze tvoje sluge u ime Jahve, Boga tvojega: čuli smo za slavu njegovu i za sve što je učinio u Egiptu
10 And - all that he did to [the] two [the] kings of the Amorite[s] who [were] on [the] other side of the Jordan to Sihon [the] king of Heshbon and to Og [the] king of Bashan who [was] in Ashtaroth.
i za ono što je učinio dvojici kraljeva amorejskih koji su vladali s onu stranu Jordana - Sihonu, kralju hešbonskom, i Ogu, kralju bašanskom u Aštarotu.
11 And they said to us elders our and all [the] inhabitants of land our saying take in hand your provision[s] for the journey and go to meet them and you will say to them [are] servants your we and therefore make to us a covenant.
Tada nam rekoše naše starješine i svi u našoj zemlji: 'Opskrbite se hranom za put, pođite im u susret i recite im: Vaše smo sluge, sklopite dakle savez s nama.'
12 This - bread our warm we took as our provisions it from homes our on [the] day came out we to come to you and now here! it has dried up and it has been crumbs.
Evo našega kruha: vruć smo ponijeli na put od kuća svojih kada smo krenuli k vama, a sada je, evo, suh i razdrobljen.
13 And these [the] skin-bottles of wine which we filled new and here! they have split and these garments our and sandals our they have worn out from [the] greatness of the journey very.
A ovo su vinski mjehovi: nove smo ih nalili, pa su se, evo, već poderali; i haljine naše i obuća već su trošni od dalekog puta.”
14 And they took the men some of provision[s] their and [the] mouth of Yahweh not they asked.
I povjerovaše im ljudi po putnoj opskrbi, ne pitajući Jahvu što će im reći.
15 And he made to them Joshua peace and he made to them a covenant to let live them and they swore an oath to them [the] leaders of the congregation.
Jošua uglavi s njima mir i sklopi savez s njima da će ih poštedjeti. I glavari se na to zakunu.
16 And it was from [the] end of three days after that they had made to them a covenant and they heard that [were] near they to him and in midst his they [were] dwelling.
A poslije tri dana, pošto su sklopili s njima savez, saznalo se da su im susjedi i da žive usred Izraela.
17 And they set out [the] people of Israel and they came to cities their on the day third and cities their [were] Gibeon and Kephirah and Beeroth and Kiriath Jearim.
Tada krenu Izraelci iz tabora i stignu u njihove gradove, a to su bili Gibeon, Kefira, Beerot i Kirjat Jearim.
18 And not they attacked them [the] people of Israel for they had sworn an oath to them [the] leaders of the congregation by Yahweh [the] God of Israel and they grumbled all the congregation on the leaders.
Ali ih nisu napali sinovi Izraelovi, jer su im se glavari zajednice zakleli Jahvom, Bogom Izraelovim. Ali sva zajednica poče rogoboriti protiv glavara.
19 And they said all the leaders to all the congregation we we have sworn an oath to them by Yahweh [the] God of Israel and therefore not we are able to touch them.
Tada svi glavari rekoše zajednici: “Mi smo im se zakleli Jahvom, Bogom Izraelovim, i zato ih ne smijemo dirati.
20 This we will do to them and we will let live them and not it will be towards us wrath on the oath which we swore to them.
Evo što ćemo: pustimo ih da žive, kako nas ne bi stigla srdžba zbog zakletve kojom smo se zakleli.”
21 And they said to them the leaders let them live and they were cutters of wood and drawers of water for all the congregation just as they had spoken to them the leaders.
Još dometnuše glavari: “Neka žive i neka budu drvosječe i vodonoše svoj zajednici.” Sva zajednica prihvati što rekoše glavari.
22 And he summoned them Joshua and he spoke to them saying why? did you deceive us saying [are] distant we from you very and you in midst our [are] dwelling.
Jošua pozva Gibeonce i reče im: “Zašto nas prevariste govoreći: 'Vrlo smo daleko od vas', kad eto živite usred nas?
23 And therefore [are] cursed you and not he will be cut off from you a slave and cutters of wood and drawers of water for [the] house of God my.
Zato će sada na vama biti kletva i nikada neće nestati među vama ropstva: bit ćete drvosječe i vodonoše za Dom Boga moga.”
24 And they answered Joshua and they said that certainly it was told to servants your this: he had commanded Yahweh God your Moses servant his to give to you all the land and to destroy all [the] inhabitants of the land from before you and we were afraid very for lives our because of you and we did the thing this.
Oni odgovore Jošui: “Sa svih strana dolazili su glasovi nama, slugama tvojim, kako je Jahve, Bog tvoj, odredio Mojsiju, sluzi svomu, da će vam dati svu zemlju i da će istrijebiti ispred vas sve stanovnike ove zemlje; silno smo se uplašili od vas za svoje živote i zato smo učinili ovo.
25 And therefore here we [are] in hand your according to the good and according to the right in view your to do to us do.
I sada smo, evo, u tvojim rukama: učini s nama što misliš da je dobro i pravo.”
26 And he did to them thus and he delivered them from [the] hand of [the] people of Israel and not they killed them.
A on im je učinio ovako: izbavio ih iz ruku sinova Izraelovih te ih nisu pobili.
27 And he made them Joshua on the day that cutters of wood and drawers of water for the congregation and for [the] altar of Yahweh until the day this to the place which he will choose.
I od toga dana naredi im Jošua da sijeku drva i nose vodu, sve do danas, za zajednicu i za žrtvenik Jahvin na mjestu koje se god izabere.
