< 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.
И у то време, кад не беше цара у Израиљу, беше један Левит који живљаше као дошљак крај горе Јефремове, и узе иночу из Витлејема Јудиног.
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.
А иноча његова чињаше прељубу код њега, па отиде од њега кући оца свог у Витлејем Јудин, и оста онде четири месеца.
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.
А муж њен уста и отиде за њом да јој лепо говори и да је доведе натраг, имајући са собом момка свог, и два магарца; и она га уведе у кућу оца свог, и кад га виде отац њен обрадова се доласку његовом.
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.
И устави га таст његов, отац младичин, и оста код њега три дана, и онде јеђаху и пијаху и ноћиваху.
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.”
А четврти дан кад усташе рано, уста и он да иде; али отац младичин рече зету свом: Поткрепи срце своје залогајем хлеба, па онда идите.
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.”
И тако седоше и седоше обојица заједно и напише се; па рече отац младичин мужу: Хајде остани још ноћас, и буди весео.
7 The man rose up to depart; but his father-in-law urged him, and he stayed there again.
Али човек уста да иде; али таст његов навали на њ, те опет ноћи онде.
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.
Потом урани петог дана да иде; и рече му отац младичин: Поткрепи срце своје. И једући заједно забавише се докле и дан наже.
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.”
Тада уста човек да иде, он и иноча му и момак; а таст његов, отац младичин, рече му: Ето, дан је већ нагао, вече је, преноћите овде; ето доцкан је, преноћи овде, и буди весео, па сутра ураните на пут, и иди к свом шатору.
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.
Али човек не хте ноћити; него уста и пође; и дође до Јевуса, а то је Јерусалим, и с њим два магарца натоварена и иноча његова.
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.”
А кад беху близу Јевуса, дан беше нагао врло, па рече слуга господару свом: Хајде брже да се свратимо у тај град Јевус, и ту да ноћимо.
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.”
А господар му рече: Нећемо свртати у туђ град, који није синова Израиљевих, него ћемо ићи до Гаваје.
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.”
Још рече момку свом: Хајде брже да стигнемо у које од тих места и да ноћимо у Гаваји или у Рами.
14 So they passed on and went their way; and the sun went down on them near Gibeah, which belongs to Benjamin.
И минуше онуда и отидоше; и сунце их зађе близу Гаваје Венијаминове.
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.
И окретоше онамо да отиду и преноће у Гаваји, и кад уђе, седе на улици градској; и не би никога да их прими у кућу да преноће.
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.
И гле, један старац враћаше се с посла свог из поља увече, а беше из горе Јефремове и живљаше као дошљак у Гаваји; а људи оног места беху синови Венијаминови.
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?”
И он подигавши очи своје угледа оног човека путника на улици градској; и рече му старац: Куда идеш? И откуда идеш?
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 Yahweh’s house; and there is no one who has taken me into his house.
А он му одговори: Идемо до Витлејема Јудиног до на крај горе Јефремове; оданде сам, па сам ишао до Витлејема Јудиног, а сада идем к дому Господњем и нема никога да ме прими у кућу.
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.”
А имамо и сламе и пиће за магарце своје, и хлеба и вина за се и за слушкињу твоју и за момка који је са слугом твојим имамо свега доста.
20 The old man said, “Peace be to you! Just let me supply all your needs, but don’t sleep in the street.”
А старац му рече: Буди миран; шта ти год недостаје, ја ћу се старати за то; само немој ноћити на улици.
21 So he brought him into his house, and gave the donkeys fodder. Then they washed their feet, and ate and drank.
И уведе га у своју кућу, и положи магарцима; потом опраше ноге, и једоше и пише.
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!”
А кад се развеселише, гле, људи оног града, безаконици, опколише кућу, и стадоше лупати у врата, и рекоше старцу, господару од куће, говорећи: Изведи тог човека што је ушао у твоју кућу, да га познамо.
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.
И изашав к њима онај човек, господар од куће, рече им: Не, браћо, не чините зло; кад је човек ушао у моју кућу, не чините то безумље.
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.”
Ево кћи моја девојка и иноча његова, њих ћу вам извести, па њих осрамотите и чините с њима шта вам је воља, само човеку овом не чините то безумље.
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.
Али га не хтеше послушати они људи; тада онај човек узе иночу своју и изведе је напоље к њима, и они је познаше, и злоставише је целу ноћ до зоре, и пустише је кад зора забеле.
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.
И дошавши жена у зору паде код врата од куће оног човека где беше господар њен, и лежа докле се не расвану.
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.
А господар њен уста ујутру, и кад отвори врата и изађе да иде својим путем, а то жена иноча његова лежаше на вратима кућним, и руке јој на прагу.
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.
И рече јој: Устани да идемо. Али не би одговора; тада је метну на магарца, и уставши човек пође у место своје,
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.
И дошав кући својој узе мач, и узе иночу своју и исече је с костима на дванаест комада и разасла у све крајеве Израиљеве.
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.”
И ко год виде говораше: Није се учинило нити се видело такво шта откад изиђоше синови Израиљеви из Мисира до данас. Промислите о том и већајте и говорите.
