< Judges 19 >

1 In those days, when there was no king in Israel, there was a certain Levite living on the farther side of the hill country of Ephraim, who took for himself a concubine out of Bethlehem Judah.
I u to vrijeme, kad ne bješe cara u Izrailju, bješe jedan Levit koji življaše kao došljak kraj gore Jefremove, i uze inoèu iz Vitlejema Judina.
2 His concubine played the prostitute against him, and went away from him to her father’s house to Bethlehem Judah, and was there for four months.
A inoèa njegova èinjaše preljubu kod njega, pa otide od njega kuæi oca svojega u Vitlejem Judin, i osta ondje èetiri mjeseca.
3 Her husband arose and went after her to speak kindly to her, to bring her again, having his servant with him and a couple of donkeys. She brought him into her father’s house; and when the father of the young lady saw him, he rejoiced to meet him.
A muž njezin usta i otide za njom da joj lijepo govori i da je dovede natrag, imajuæi sa sobom momka svojega, i dva magarca; i ona ga uvede u kuæu oca svojega, i kad ga vidje otac njezin obradova se dolasku njegovu.
4 His father-in-law, the young lady’s father, kept him there; and he stayed with him three days. So they ate and drank, and stayed there.
I ustavi ga tast njegov, otac mladièin, i osta kod njega tri dana, i ondje jeðahu i pijahu i noæivahu.
5 On the fourth day, they got up early in the morning, and he rose up to depart. The young lady’s father said to his son-in-law, “Strengthen your heart with a morsel of bread, and afterward you shall go your way.”
A èetvrti dan kad ustaše rano, usta i on da ide; ali otac mladièin reèe zetu svojemu: potkrijepi srce svoje zalogajem hljeba, pa onda idite.
6 So they sat down, ate, and drank, both of them together. Then the young lady’s father said to the man, “Please be pleased to stay all night, and let your heart be merry.”
I tako sjedoše i jedoše obojica zajedno i napiše se; pa reèe otac mladièin mužu: hajde ostani još noæas, i budi veseo.
7 The man rose up to depart; but his father-in-law urged him, and he stayed there again.
Ali èovjek usta da ide; ali tast njegov navali na nj, te opet noæi ondje.
8 He arose early in the morning on the fifth day to depart; and the young lady’s father said, “Please strengthen your heart and stay until the day declines;” and they both ate.
Potom urani petoga dana da ide; i reèe mu otac mladièin: potkrijepi srce svoje. I jeduæi zajedno zabaviše se dokle i dan naže.
9 When the man rose up to depart, he, and his concubine, and his servant, his father-in-law, the young lady’s father, said to him, “Behold, now the day draws toward evening, please stay all night. Behold, the day is ending. Stay here, that your heart may be merry; and tomorrow go on your way early, that you may go home.”
Tada usta èovjek da ide, on i inoèa mu i momak; a tast njegov, otac mladièin, reèe mu: eto, dan je veæ nagao, veèe je, prenoæite ovdje; eto dockan je, prenoæi ovdje, i budi veseo, pa sjutra uranite na put, i idi k svojemu šatoru.
10 But the man wouldn’t stay that night, but he rose up and went near Jebus (also called Jerusalem). With him were a couple of saddled donkeys. His concubine also was with him.
Ali èovjek ne htje noæiti; nego usta i poðe; i doðe do Jevusa, a to je Jerusalim, i s njim dva magarca natovarena i inoèa njegova.
11 When they were by Jebus, the day was far spent; and the servant said to his master, “Please come and let’s enter into this city of the Jebusites, and stay in it.”
A kad bijahu blizu Jevusa, dan bijaše nagao vrlo, pa reèe sluga gospodaru svojemu: hajde brže da se svratimo u taj grad Jevus, i tu da noæimo.
12 His master said to him, “We won’t enter into the city of a foreigner that is not of the children of Israel; but we will pass over to Gibeah.”
A gospodar mu reèe: neæemo svrtati u tuð grad, koji nije sinova Izrailjevijeh, nego æemo iæi do Gavaje.
13 He said to his servant, “Come and let’s draw near to one of these places; and we will lodge in Gibeah, or in Ramah.”
Još reèe momku svojemu: hajde brže da stignemo u koje od tijeh mjesta i da noæimo u Gavaji ili u Rami.
14 So they passed on and went their way; and the sun went down on them near Gibeah, which belongs to Benjamin.
I minuše onuda i otidoše; i sunce ih zaðe blizu Gavaje Venijaminove.
15 They went over there, to go in to stay in Gibeah. He went in, and sat down in the street of the city; for there was no one who took them into his house to stay.
I okretoše onamo da otidu i prenoæe u Gavaji; i kad uðe, sjede na ulici gradskoj; i ne bi nikoga da ih primi u kuæu da prenoæe.
16 Behold, an old man came from his work out of the field at evening. Now the man was from the hill country of Ephraim, and he lived in Gibeah; but the men of the place were Benjamites.
I gle, jedan starac vraæaše se s posla svojega iz polja uveèe, a bijaše iz gore Jefremove i življaše kao došljak u Gavaji; a ljudi onoga mjesta bjehu sinovi Venijaminovi.
17 He lifted up his eyes, and saw the wayfaring man in the street of the city; and the old man said, “Where are you going? Where did you come from?”
I on podigav oèi svoje ugleda onoga èovjeka putnika na ulici gradskoj; i reèe mu starac: kuda ideš? i otkuda ideš?
18 He said to him, “We are passing from Bethlehem Judah to the farther side of the hill country of Ephraim. I am from there, and I went to Bethlehem Judah. I am going to the LORD’s house; and there is no one who has taken me into his house.
A on mu odgovori: idemo od Vitlejema Judina do na kraj gore Jefremove; odande sam, pa sam išao do Vitlejema Judina, a sada idem k domu Gospodnjemu, i nema nikoga da me primi u kuæu.
19 Yet there is both straw and feed for our donkeys; and there is bread and wine also for me, and for your servant, and for the young man who is with your servants. There is no lack of anything.”
A imamo i slame i piæe za magarce svoje, i hljeba i vina za se i za sluškinju tvoju i za momka koji je sa slugom tvojim; imamo svega dosta.
20 The old man said, “Peace be to you! Just let me supply all your needs, but don’t sleep in the street.”
A starac mu reèe: budi miran; što ti god nedostaje, ja æu se starati za to; samo nemoj noæiti na ulici.
21 So he brought him into his house, and gave the donkeys fodder. Then they washed their feet, and ate and drank.
I uvede ga u svoju kuæu, i položi magarcima; potom opraše noge, i jedoše i piše.
22 As they were making their hearts merry, behold, the men of the city, certain wicked fellows, surrounded the house, beating at the door; and they spoke to the master of the house, the old man, saying, “Bring out the man who came into your house, that we can have sex with him!”
A kad se razveseliše, gle, ljudi onoga grada, bezakonici, opkoliše kuæu, i stadoše lupati u vrata, i rekoše starcu, gospodaru od kuæe, govoreæi: izvedi toga èovjeka što je ušao u tvoju kuæu, da ga poznamo.
23 The man, the master of the house, went out to them, and said to them, “No, my brothers, please don’t act so wickedly; since this man has come into my house, don’t do this folly.
I izašav k njima onaj èovjek, gospodar od kuæe, reèe im: ne, braæo, ne èinite zla; kad je èovjek ušao u moju kuæu, ne èinite toga bezumlja.
24 Behold, here is my virgin daughter and his concubine. I will bring them out now. Humble them, and do with them what seems good to you; but to this man don’t do any such folly.”
Evo kæi moja djevojka i inoèa njegova, njih æu vam izvesti, pa njih osramotite i èinite s njima što vam je volja, samo èovjeku ovomu ne èinite toga bezumlja.
25 But the men wouldn’t listen to him; so the man grabbed his concubine, and brought her out to them; and they had sex with her, and abused her all night until the morning. When the day began to dawn, they let her go.
Ali ga ne htješe poslušati oni ljudi; tada onaj èovjek uze inoèu svoju i izvede je napolje k njima, i oni je poznaše, i zlostaviše je cijelu noæ do zore, i pustiše je kad zora zabijelje.
26 Then the woman came in the dawning of the day, and fell down at the door of the man’s house where her lord was, until it was light.
I došavši žena u zoru pade kod vrata od kuæe onoga èovjeka gdje bješe gospodar njezin, i leža dokle se ne rasvanu.
27 Her lord rose up in the morning and opened the doors of the house, and went out to go his way; and behold, the woman his concubine had fallen down at the door of the house, with her hands on the threshold.
A gospodar njezin usta ujutru, i kad otvori vrata i izaðe da ide svojim putem, a to žena inoèa njegova ležaše na vratima kuænijem, i ruke joj na pragu.
28 He said to her, “Get up, and let’s get going!” but no one answered. Then he took her up on the donkey; and the man rose up, and went to his place.
I reèe joj: ustani da idemo. Ali ne bi odgovora; tada je metnu na magarca, i ustavši èovjek poðe u mjesto svoje,
29 When he had come into his house, he took a knife and cut up his concubine, and divided her, limb by limb, into twelve pieces, and sent her throughout all the borders of Israel.
I došav kuæi svojoj uze maè, i uze inoèu svoju i isijeèe je s kostima na dvanaest komada i razasla u sve krajeve Izrailjeve.
30 It was so, that all who saw it said, “Such a deed has not been done or seen from the day that the children of Israel came up out of the land of Egypt to this day! Consider it, take counsel, and speak.”
I ko god vidje govoraše: nije se uèinilo niti se vidjelo tako što otkad izidoše sinovi Izrailjevi iz Misira do danas. Promislite o tom i vijeæajte i govorite.
