< Postanak 19 >

1 A uveèe doðoše dva anðela u Sodom; a Lot sjeðaše na vratima Sodomskim; i kad ih ugleda, ustade te ih srete, i pokloni se licem do zemlje,
The two angels came to Sodom at evening. Lot sat in the gate of Sodom. Lot saw them, and rose up to meet them. He bowed himself with his face to the earth,
2 I reèe: hodite, gospodo, u kuæu sluge svojega, i prenoæite i operite noge svoje; pa sjutra rano kad ustanete poðite svojim putem. A oni rekoše: ne, nego æemo prenoæiti na ulici.
and he said, “See now, my lords, please come into your servant’s house, stay all night, wash your feet, and you can rise up early, and go on your way.” They said, “No, but we will stay in the street all night.”
3 Ali on navali na njih, te se uvratiše k njemu i uðoše u kuæu njegovu, i on ih ugosti, i ispeèe hljebova prijesnijeh, i jedoše.
He urged them greatly, and they came in with him, and entered into his house. He made them a feast, and baked unleavened bread, and they ate.
4 I još ne bjehu legli, a graðani Sodomljani slegoše se oko kuæe, staro i mlado, sav narod sa svijeh krajeva,
But before they lay down, the men of the city, the men of Sodom, surrounded the house, both young and old, all the people from every quarter.
5 I vikahu Lota i govorahu mu: gdje su ljudi što doðoše sinoæ k tebi? izvedi ih k nama da ih poznamo.
They called to Lot, and said to him, “Where are the men who came in to you this night? Bring them out to us, that we may have sex with them.”
6 A Lot izide k njima pred vrata zatvoriv vrata za sobom,
Lot went out to them through the door, and shut the door after himself.
7 I reèe im: nemojte, braæo, èiniti zla.
He said, “Please, my brothers, don’t act so wickedly.
8 Evo imam dvije kæeri, koje još ne poznaše èovjeka; njih æu vam izvesti, pa èinite s njima što vam je volja; samo ne dirajte u one ljude, jer su zato ušli pod moj krov.
See now, I have two virgin daughters. Please let me bring them out to you, and you may do to them what seems good to you. Only don’t do anything to these men, because they have come under the shadow of my roof.”
9 A oni mu rekoše: hodi amo. Pa onda rekoše: ovaj je sam došao amo da živi kao došljak, pa još hoæe da nam sudi; sad æemo tebi uèiniti gore nego njima. Pa navališe jako na èovjeka, na Lota, i stadoše istavljati vrata.
They said, “Stand back!” Then they said, “This one fellow came in to live as a foreigner, and he appoints himself a judge. Now we will deal worse with you than with them!” They pressed hard on the man Lot, and came near to break the door.
10 A ona dva èovjeka digoše ruke, i uvukoše Lota k sebi u kuæu, i zatvoriše vrata.
But the men reached out their hand, and brought Lot into the house to them, and shut the door.
11 A ljudi što bijahu pred vratima kuænim ujedanput oslijepiše od najmanjega do najveæega, te ne mogahu naæi vrata.
They struck the men who were at the door of the house with blindness, both small and great, so that they wearied themselves to find the door.
12 Tada ona dva èovjeka rekoše Lotu: ako imaš ovdje još koga svoga, ili zeta ili sina ili kæer, ili koga god svoga u ovom gradu, gledaj nek idu odavde;
The men said to Lot, “Do you have anybody else here? Sons-in-law, your sons, your daughters, and whomever you have in the city, bring them out of the place:
13 Jer hoæemo da zatremo mjesto ovo, jer je vika njihova velika pred Gospodom, pa nas posla Gospod da ga zatremo.
for we will destroy this place, because the outcry against them has grown so great before the LORD that the LORD has sent us to destroy it.”
14 I izide Lot, i kaza zetovima svojim, za koje šæaše dati kæeri svoje, i reèe im: ustajte, idite iz mjesta ovoga, jer æe sada zatrti Gospod grad ovaj. Ali se zetovima njegovijem uèini da se šali.
Lot went out, and spoke to his sons-in-law, who were pledged to marry his daughters, and said, “Get up! Get out of this place, for the LORD will destroy the city!” But he seemed to his sons-in-law to be joking.
15 A kad zora zabijelje, navališe anðeli na Lota govoreæi: ustani, uzmi ženu svoju i dvije kæeri svoje koje su tu, da ne pogineš u bezakonju grada toga.
When the morning came, then the angels hurried Lot, saying, “Get up! Take your wife and your two daughters who are here, lest you be consumed in the iniquity of the city.”
16 A on se stade šèinjati, te ljudi uzeše za ruku njega i ženu njegovu i dvije kæeri njegove, jer ga bješe žao Gospodu, i izvedoše ga i pustiše iza grada.
But he lingered; and the men grabbed his hand, his wife’s hand, and his two daughters’ hands, the LORD being merciful to him; and they took him out, and set him outside of the city.
17 I kad ih izvedoše napolje, reèe jedan: izbavi dušu svoju i ne obziri se natrag, i u cijeloj ovoj ravni da nijesi stao; bježi na ono brdo, da ne pogineš.
It came to pass, when they had taken them out, that he said, “Escape for your life! Don’t look behind you, and don’t stay anywhere in the plain. Escape to the mountains, lest you be consumed!”
18 A Lot im reèe: nemoj, Gospode!
Lot said to them, “Oh, not so, my lord.
19 Gle, sluga tvoj naðe milosti pred tobom, i milost je tvoja prevelika koju mi uèini saèuvavši mi život; ali ne mogu uteæi na brdo da me ne stigne zlo i ne poginem.
See now, your servant has found favour in your sight, and you have magnified your loving kindness, which you have shown to me in saving my life. I can’t escape to the mountain, lest evil overtake me, and I die.
20 Eno grad blizu; onamo se može uteæi, a mali je; da bježim onamo; ta mali je, te æu ostati živ.
See now, this city is near to flee to, and it is a little one. Oh let me escape there (isn’t it a little one?), and my soul will live.”
21 A on mu reèe: eto poslušaæu te i zato, i neæu zatrti grada, za koji reèe.
He said to him, “Behold, I have granted your request concerning this thing also, that I will not overthrow the city of which you have spoken.
22 Brže bježi onamo; jer ne mogu èiniti ništa dokle ne stigneš onamo. Zato se prozva onaj grad Sigor.
Hurry, escape there, for I can’t do anything until you get there.” Therefore the name of the city was called Zoar.
23 I kad sunce ogranu po zemlji, Lot doðe u Sigor.
The sun had risen on the earth when Lot came to Zoar.
24 Tada pusti Gospod na Sodom i na Gomor od Gospoda s neba dažd od sumpora i ognja,
Then the LORD rained on Sodom and on Gomorrah sulphur and fire from the LORD out of the sky.
25 I zatr one gradove i svu onu ravan, i sve ljude u gradovima i rod zemaljski.
He overthrew those cities, all the plain, all the inhabitants of the cities, and that which grew on the ground.
26 Ali žena Lotova bješe se obazrela iduæi za njim, i posta slan kamen.
But Lot’s wife looked back from behind him, and she became a pillar of salt.
27 A sjutradan rano ustavši Avram, otide na mjesto gdje je stajao pred Gospodom;
Abraham went up early in the morning to the place where he had stood before the LORD.
28 I pogleda na Sodom i Gomor i svu okolinu po onoj ravni, i ugleda, a to se dizaše dim od zemlje kao dim iz peæi.
He looked towards Sodom and Gomorrah, and towards all the land of the plain, and saw that the smoke of the land went up as the smoke of a furnace.
29 Ali kad Bog zatiraše gradove u onoj ravni, opomenu se Bog Avrama, i izvede Lota iz propasti kad zatr gradove gdje življaše Lot.
When God destroyed the cities of the plain, God remembered Abraham, and sent Lot out of the middle of the overthrow, when he overthrew the cities in which Lot lived.
30 A Lot otide iz Sigora, i stani se na onom brdu s dvije kæeri svoje, jer se bojaše ostati u Sigoru; i življaše u peæini s dvije kæeri svoje.
Lot went up out of Zoar, and lived in the mountain, and his two daughters with him; for he was afraid to live in Zoar. He lived in a cave with his two daughters.
31 A starija reèe mlaðoj: naš je otac star, a nema nikoga na zemlji da doðe k nama kao što je obièaj po svoj zemlji.
The firstborn said to the younger, “Our father is old, and there is not a man in the earth to come in to us in the way of all the earth.
32 Hajde da damo ocu vina neka se opije, pa da legnemo s njim, eda bismo saèuvale sjeme ocu svojemu.
Come, let’s make our father drink wine, and we will lie with him, that we may preserve our father’s family line.”
33 I dadoše ocu vina onu noæ; i došavši starija leže s ocem svojim, i on ne osjeti ni kad ona leže ni kad ustade.
They made their father drink wine that night: and the firstborn went in, and lay with her father. He didn’t know when she lay down, nor when she arose.
34 A sjutradan reèe starija mlaðoj: gle, noæas spavah s ocem svojim. Da mu damo vina i doveèe, pa idi ti i lezi s njim, eda bismo saèuvale sjeme ocu svojemu.
It came to pass on the next day, that the firstborn said to the younger, “Behold, I lay last night with my father. Let’s make him drink wine again tonight. You go in, and lie with him, that we may preserve our father’s family line.”
35 Pa i to veèe dadoše ocu vina i ustavši mlaða leže s njim, i on ne osjeti ni kad ona leže ni kad ustade.
They made their father drink wine that night also. The younger went and lay with him. He didn’t know when she lay down, nor when she got up.
36 I obje kæeri Lotove zatrudnješe od oca svojega.
Thus both of Lot’s daughters were with child by their father.
37 I starija rodi sina, i nadjede mu ime Moav; od njega su Moavci do današnjega dana.
The firstborn bore a son, and named him Moab. He is the father of the Moabites to this day.
38 Pa i mlaða rodi sina, i nadjede mu ime Ven-Amije; od njega su Amonci do današnjega dana.
The younger also bore a son, and called his name Ben Ammi. He is the father of the children of Ammon to this day.
