Judges 2
1 Yahweh [appeared in the form of] an angel [and] went up from Gilgal to [a place that was later called] Bokim. He said [to the Israeli people], “I brought your [ancestors] up here from Egypt. I led them into this land that I solemnly promised to give to your ancestors. I said to them, ‘The agreement that I made with you, as for me, I will never (break it/say that it is ended).
I doðe anðeo Gospodnji od Galgala u Vokim i reèe: izveo sam vas iz Misira i doveo vas u zemlju za koju sam se zakleo ocima vašim; i rekoh: neæu pokvariti zavjeta svojega s vama dovijeka.
2 But as for you, you must never make a peace agreement with the people who live in this land. You must tear down the altars [where they make sacrifices to idols].’ But you have not obeyed me.
A vi ne hvatajte vjere sa stanovnicima te zemlje, oltare njihove raskopajte. Ali ne poslušaste glasa mojega. Šta ste to uèinili?
3 So now, I am telling you that I will not expel [your enemies] as you advance. They will be like thorns in your sides. And [they] will try to trap you [by making you worship] their idols.”
Zato i ja rekoh: neæu ih odagnati ispred vas, nego æe vam biti kao trnje, i bogovi njihovi biæe vam zamka.
4 After he told that to all the Israelis, the people cried loudly.
A kad izgovori anðeo Gospodnji ove rijeèi svijem sinovima Izrailjevijem, narod podiže glas svoj i plaka.
5 They called that place Bokim, [which means ‘weeping’]. There they offered sacrifices to Yahweh.
Zato prozvaše ono mjesto Vokim; i ondje prinesoše žrtve Gospodu.
6 After Joshua sent the Israeli people away, each group went to possess the land that had been allotted to them.
A Isus raspusti narod, i razidoše se sinovi Izrailjevi svaki na svoje našljedstvo, da naslijede zemlju.
7 They served Yahweh as long as Joshua was alive, and as long as the elders, those who had seen all the great things that Yahweh had done for Israel, were alive.
I služi narod Gospodu svega vijeka Isusova i svega vijeka starješina koje živješe dugo iza Isusa i koje bijahu vidjele sva velika djela Gospodnja što uèini Izrailju.
8 Then Yahweh’s servant Joshua died. He was 110 years old when he died.
Ali umrije Isus sin Navin sluga Gospodnji, kad mu bješe sto i deset godina.
9 They buried his body in the area he had received [from Moses], at Timnath-Serah, in the area where the descendants of Ephraim lived, north of Gaash Mountain.
I pogreboše ga u meðama našljedstva njegova u Tamnat-Aresu u gori Jefremovoj sa sjevera gori Gasu.
10 After all the people died who lived at the same time as Joshua [EUP], a group of people grew up who did not know Yahweh, and did not know what great things he had done for the Israeli people.
I sav onaj naraštaj pribra se k ocima svojim, i nasta drugi naraštaj iza njih, koji ne poznavaše Gospoda ni djela koja je uèinio Izrailju.
11 They did things that Yahweh said were very evil. They worshiped [idols that represented the god] Baal and the goddess Astarte. They worshiped [DOU] the various gods that the people-groups around them worshiped. They stopped worshiping Yahweh, the God their ancestors worshiped, the one who had brought their ancestors out of Egypt. That caused Yahweh to be very angry.
I sinovi Izrailjevi èiniše što je zlo pred Gospodom, i služiše Valima.
I ostaviše Gospoda Boga otaca svojih, koji ih je izveo iz zemlje Misirske, i poðoše za drugim bogovima izmeðu bogova onijeh naroda koji bijahu oko njih, i klanjaše im se, i razgnjeviše Gospoda.
I ostaviše Gospoda, i služiše Valu i Astarotama.
14 So he allowed people from other groups to raid them and steal their crops and animals. They were no longer able to resist their enemies, and Yahweh allowed all their enemies around them to defeat them.
I razgnjevi se Gospod na Izrailja, i dade ih u ruke ljudima koji ih plijenjahu, i prodade ih u ruke neprijateljima njihovijem unaokolo, i ne mogaše se više držati pred neprijateljima svojim.
15 Whenever the Israelis went to fight [their enemies], Yahweh [MTY] was opposing them, and allowed their enemies to defeat them, just as he had promised he would do. So the Israelis were greatly distressed.
Kuda god polažahu, ruka Gospodnja bješe protiv njih na zlo, kao što bješe rekao Gospod i kao što im se bješe zakleo Gospod; i bijahu u velikoj nevolji.
16 Then Yahweh gave leaders to them. These leaders rescued the Israelis from the people who were raiding them.
Tada im Gospod podizaše sudije, koji ih izbavljahu iz ruku onijeh što ih plijenjahu.
17 But the Israelis still would not pay attention to their leaders. Instead, they went to the idols, [acting like] prostitutes [who gave themselves to men who were not their husbands] [MET], and they worshiped those idols. They were not like their ancestors. Their ancestors obeyed what Yahweh commanded, but their descendants quickly stopped behaving as their ancestors had behaved.
Ali ni sudija svojih ne slušaše, nego èiniše preljubu za drugim bogovima, i klanjaše im se; brzo zaðoše s puta kojim idoše oci njihovi slušajuæi zapovijesti Gospodnje; oni ne èiniše tako.
18 Whenever Yahweh gave a leader to them, he helped that leader and enabled him to rescue the people from their enemies. He helped them like that as long as that leader was alive. Yahweh pitied them as they groaned because they were being oppressed and caused to suffer.
I kad im Gospod podizaše sudije, bijaše Gospod sa svakim sudijom, i izbavljaše ih iz ruku neprijatelja njihovijeh svega vijeka sudijina; jer se sažali Gospodu radi njihova uzdisanja na one koji im krivo èinjahu i koji ih cvijeljahu.
19 But after that leader died, the people went back to behaving in ways even more evil than their ancestors had behaved. They worshiped other gods and bowed down to them and did all [LIT] the things that they thought those gods wanted them to do.
A kad sudija umrije, oni se vraæahu opet i bivahu gori od otaca svojih iduæi za bogovima drugim i služeæi im i klanjajuæi im se; ne ostavljahu se djela svojih niti putova svojih opakih.
20 So Yahweh was very angry with the Israeli people. He said, “These people have disobeyed the agreement I made with their ancestors. They have not done what I told them to do.
Zato se raspali gnjev Gospodnji na Izrailja, i reèe: kad je taj narod prestupio moj zavjet koji sam zapovjedio ocima njihovijem, i ne poslušaše glasa mojega,
21 So I will no longer expel the people-groups that Joshua left in this land when he died.
Ni ja neæu više nijednoga goniti ispred njih izmeðu naroda koje ostavi Isus kad umrije,
22 I will use them to test the Israeli people to see whether they will do what I want them to do, as their ancestors did.”
Da njima kušam Izrailja hoæe li se držati puta Gospodnjega hodeæi po njemu, kao što su se držali oci njihovi, ili neæe.
23 Yahweh had allowed those people-groups to stay in that land. He did not expel them by allowing Joshua [and his men] to defeat them.
I Gospod ostavi te narode i ne izagna ih odmah ne predavši ih u ruke Isusu.
