< Postanak 34 >

1 A Dina kæi Lijina, koju rodi Jakovu, izaðe da gleda djevojke u onom kraju.
And Dinah the daughter of Leah, whom she had borne unto Jacob, went out to see the daughters of the land.
2 A ugleda je Sihem, sin Emora Evejina, kneza od one zemlje, i uze je i leže s njom i osramoti je.
And Shechem the son of Hamor the Hivite, the prince of the land, saw her; and he took her, and lay with her, and humbled her.
3 I prionu srce njegovo za Dinu kæer Jakovljevu, i djevojka mu omilje, i on joj se umiljavaše.
And his soul did cleave unto Dinah the daughter of Jacob, and he loved the damsel, and spoke comfortingly unto the damsel.
4 I reèe Sihem Emoru ocu svojemu govoreæi: oženi me ovom djevojkom.
And Shechem spoke unto his father Hamor, saying: 'Get me this damsel to wife.'
5 A Jakov èu da je osramotio Dinu kæer njegovu; a sinovi njegovi bijahu u polju sa stokom njegovom, i Jakov oæutje dokle oni ne doðu.
Now Jacob heard that he had defiled Dinah his daughter; and his sons were with his cattle in the field; and Jacob held his peace until they came.
6 A Emor otac Sihemov izide k Jakovu da se razgovori s njim.
And Hamor the father of Shechem went out unto Jacob to speak with him.
7 A kad doðoše sinovi Jakovljevi iz polja i èuše šta je bilo, žao bi ljudima vrlo i razgnjeviše se veoma, što uèini sramotu Izrailju obležav kæer Jakovljevu, kako ne bi valjalo èiniti.
And the sons of Jacob came in from the field when they heard it; and the men were grieved, and they were very wroth, because he had wrought a vile deed in Israel in lying with Jacob's daughter; which thing ought not to be done.
8 Tada im reèe Emor govoreæi: sin moj Sihem srcem prionu za vašu kæer; podajte mu je za ženu.
And Hamor spoke with them, saying 'The soul of my son Shechem longeth for your daughter. I pray you give her unto him to wife.
9 I oprijateljite se s nama; kæeri svoje udajite za nas i kæerima našim ženite se.
And make ye marriages with us; give your daughters unto us, and take our daughters unto you.
10 Pa živite s nama, i zemlja æe vam biti otvorena; nastanite se i trgujte i držite baštine u njoj.
And ye shall dwell with us; and the land shall be before you; dwell and trade ye therein, and get you possessions therein.'
11 I reèe Sihem ocu djevojèinu i braæi joj: da naðem milost pred vama, i daæu što mi god kažete.
And Shechem said unto her father and unto her brethren: 'Let me find favour in your eyes, and what ye shall say unto me I will give.
12 Ištite mi koliko god hoæete uzdarja i dara, ja æu dati što god kažete; samo mi dajte djevojku za ženu.
Ask me never so much dowry and gift, and I will give according as ye shall say unto me; but give me the damsel to wife.'
13 A sinovi Jakovljevi odgovoriše Sihemu i Emoru ocu njegovu prijevarno, jer osramoti Dinu sestru njihovu.
And the sons of Jacob answered Shechem and Hamor his father with guile, and spoke, because he had defiled Dinah their sister,
14 I rekoše im: ne možemo to uèiniti ni dati sestre svoje za èovjeka neobrezana, jer je to sramota nama.
and said unto them: 'We cannot do this thing, to give our sister to one that is uncircumcised; for that were a reproach unto us.
15 Nego æemo vam uèiniti po volji, ako æete se izjednaèiti s nama i obrezati sve muškinje izmeðu sebe.
Only on this condition will we consent unto you: if ye will be as we are, that every male of you be circumcised;
16 Onda æemo udavati svoje kæeri za vas i ženiæemo se vašim kæerima, i postaæemo jedan narod.
then will we give our daughters unto you, and we will take your daughters to us, and we will dwell with you, and we will become one people.
17 Ako li ne pristanete da se obrežete, mi æemo uzeti svoju djevojku i otiæi æemo.
But if ye will not hearken unto us, to be circumcised; then will we take our daughter, and we will be gone.'
18 I po volji biše rijeèi njihove Emoru i Sihemu sinu Emorovu.
And their words pleased Hamor, and Shechem Hamor's son.
19 I momak ne oklijevaše uèiniti to; jer mu kæi Jakovljeva omilje veoma; i on bješe najviše poštovan izmeðu svijeh u kuæi oca svojega.
And the young man deferred not to do the thing, because he had delight in Jacob's daughter. And he was honoured above all the house of his father.
20 I otide Emor i sin mu Sihem na vrata grada svojega, i rekoše graðanima govoreæi:
And Hamor and Shechem his son came unto the gate of their city, and spoke with the men of their city, saying:
21 Ovi ljudi hoæe mirno da žive s nama, da se nastane u ovoj zemlji i da trguju po njoj; a evo zemlja je široka i za njih; pa æemo se kæerima njihovijem ženiti i svoje æemo kæeri udavati za njih.
'These men are peaceable with us; therefore let them dwell in the land, and trade therein; for, behold, the land is large enough for them; let us take their daughters to us for wives, and let us give them our daughters.
22 Ali æe tako pristati da žive s nama i da postanemo jedan narod, ako se sve muškinje meðu nama obreže, kao što su oni obrezani.
Only on this condition will the men consent unto us to dwell with us, to become one people, if every male among us be circumcised, as they are circumcised.
23 Njihova stoka i njihovo blago i sva goveda njihova neæe li biti naša? složimo se samo s njima, pa æe ostati kod nas.
Shall not their cattle and their substance and all their beasts be ours? only let us consent unto them, and they will dwell with us.'
24 I koji god izlažahu na vrata grada njegova, svi poslušaše Emora i Sihema sina njegova; i obreza se sve muškinje, svi koji izlažahu na vrata grada njegova.
And unto Hamor and unto Shechem his son hearkened all that went out of the gate of his city; and every male was circumcised, all that went out of the gate of his city.
25 A treæi dan kad oni bijahu u bolovima, uzeše dva sina Jakovljeva, Simeun i Levije, braæa Dinina, svaki svoj maè i uðoše slobodno u grad i pobiše sve muškinje.
And it came to pass on the third day, when they were in pain, that two of the sons of Jacob, Simeon and Levi, Dinah's brethren, took each man his sword, and came upon the city unawares, and slew all the males.
26 Ubiše i Emora i sina mu Sihema oštrim maèem, i uzevši Dinu iz kuæe Sihemove otidoše.
And they slew Hamor and Shechem his son with the edge of the sword, and took Dinah out of Shechem's house, and went forth.
27 Tada doðoše sinovi Jakovljevi na pobijene, i oplijeniše grad, jer u njemu bi osramoæena sestra njihova.
The sons of Jacob came upon the slain, and spoiled the city, because they had defiled their sister.
28 I uzeše ovce njihove i goveda njihova i magarce njihove, što god bješe u gradu i što god bješe u polju.
They took their flocks and their herds and their asses, and that which was in the city and that which was in the field;
29 I sve blago njihovo, i svu djecu i žene njihove pohvataše i odvedoše, i što god bješe u kojoj kuæi.
and all their wealth, and all their little ones and their wives, took they captive and spoiled, even all that was in the house.
30 A Jakov reèe Simeunu i Leviju; smetoste me, i omraziste me narodu ove zemlje, Hananejima i Ferezejima; u mene ima malo ljudi, pa ako se skupe na me, hoæe me ubiti te æu se istrijebiti ja i dom moj.
And Jacob said to Simeon and Levi: 'Ye have troubled me, to make me odious unto the inhabitants of the land, even unto the Canaanites and the Perizzites; and, I being few in number, they will gather themselves together against me and smite me; and I shall be destroyed, I and my house.'
31 A oni rekoše: zar sa sestrom našom da rade kao s kurvom?
And they said: 'Should one deal with our sister as with a harlot?'
