1 Samuel 5

1 Forsothe Filisteis token the arke of God, and baren awey it fro the stoon of help in to Azotus.

Filistejci so vzeli Božjo skrinjo in jo iz Eben Ezerja prinesli v Ašdód.

2 And Filisteis tokun the arke of God, and brouyten it to the temple of Dagon, and settiden it bisidis Dagon.

Ko so Filistejci vzeli Božjo skrinjo, so jo prinesli v Dagónovo hišo in jo postavili poleg Dagóna.

3 And whanne men of Azotus hadden rise eerli in the todir dai, lo! Dagon lay low in the erthe bifor the arke of the Lord. And thei token Dagon, and restoriden hym in his place.

Ko so tisti iz Ašdóda naslednji dan zgodaj vstali, glej, Dagón je bil zvrnjen dol k zemlji, na svoj obraz, pred Gospodovo skrinjo. In prijeli so Dagóna in ga ponovno postavili na njegovo mesto.

4 And eft thei risiden eerli in the tothir day, and founden Dagon liggynge on his face on the erthe bifor the arke of the Lord. Forsothe the heed of Dagon, and twei pawmes of his hondis weren kit of on the threisfold;

Ko so naslednji dan zgodaj zjutraj vstali, glej, Dagón je bil zvrnjen na svojem obrazu na tleh pred Gospodovo skrinjo, in Dagónova glava in obe dlani njegovih rok so bili odsekani na pragu. Samo Dagónov trup mu je preostal.

5 certis the stok aloone of Dagon lefte in his place. For this cause the preestis of Dagon, and alle that entren in to his temple, treden not on the threisfold of Dagon in Azotus til in to this dai.

Zato niti Dagónovi duhovniki niti kdorkoli, ki pride v Dagónovo hišo, do današnjega dne, ne stopajo na Dagónov prag v Ašdódu.

6 Forsothe the hond of the Lord was maad greuouse on men of Azotus, and he distriede hem, and he smoot Azotus and the coostis therof in the priuyere part of buttokis; and townes and feeldis in the myddis of that cuntrey buyliden out, and myis camen forth; and greet confusioun of deth was maad in the citee.

Toda Gospodova roka je bila težka nad tistimi iz Ašdóda in uničeval jih je in jih udaril s hemoroídi, torej Ašdód in njegova mesta.

7 Sotheli men of Azotus sien siche a veniaunce, and seiden, The arke of God of Israel dwelle not at vs; for his hond is hard on vs, and on Dagon oure god.

Ko so možje iz Ašdóda videli, da je bilo tako, so rekli: »Skrinja Izraelovega Boga naj ne ostane z nami, kajti njegova roka je boleče nad nami in nad našim bogom Dagónom.«

8 And thei senten, and gaderiden alle the wise men, `ether princes, of Filisteis `to hem, and seiden, What schulen we do of the arke of God of Israel? And men of Geth answeriden, The arke of God of Israel be led aboute; and thei ledden aboute the arke of God of Israel.

Zato so poslali in k sebi zbrali vse filistejske kneze ter rekli: »Kaj naj storimo s skrinjo Izraelovega Boga?« Odgovorili so: »Naj bo skrinja Izraelovega Boga prenesena v Gat.« In tja so prenesli skrinjo Izraelovega Boga.

9 Forsothe while thei ledden it aboute, the hond of the Lord `of ful greet sleyng was maad on alle citees; and he smoot men of ech citee fro a litil man til to `the more, and the lowere entraylis `of hem wexiden rotun, and camen forth; and men of Geth token counsel, and maden to hem seetis of skynnes, ethir cuyschuns.

To je bilo tako, da potem, ko so jo odnesli, je bila Gospodova roka zoper mesto z zelo velikim uničenjem in udaril je može iz mesta, tako male, kakor velike in imeli so hemoroíde v svojih skritih delih.

10 Therfor thei senten the arke of the Lord in to Accoron. And whanne the arke of the Lord hadde come in to Accoron, men of Accoron crieden, and seiden, Thei han brought to vs the arke of God of Israel, that he sle vs and oure puple.

Zato so Božjo skrinjo poslali v Ekrón. Pripetilo se je, ko je Božja skrinja prišla v Ekrón, da so Ekrónci zavpili, rekoč: »K nam so privedli skrinjo Izraelovega Boga, da ubije nas in naše ljudstvo.«

11 Therfor thei senten, and gaderiden alle the wise men, `ethir princes, of Filisteis; whiche seiden, Delyuere ye the arke of God of Israel, and turne it ayen in to his place, and sle not vs with oure puple.

Tako so poslali in zbrali skupaj vse filistejske kneze in rekli: »Pošljite proč skrinjo Izraelovega Boga in naj ponovno gre na svoj kraj, da ne ubije nas in našega ljudstva, « kajti tam je bilo v vsem mestu smrtonosno uničenje. Božja roka je bila tam zelo težka.

12 For dreed of deeth was maad in alle citees, and the hond of the Lord was `greuouse greetli. Also the men, that weren not deed, weren smytun in the priuy part of buttokis, and the yelling of ech citee stiede in to heuene.

Možje, ki niso umrli, so bili udarjeni s hemoroídi in krik mesta je šel gor do neba.
