< Postanak 34 >

1 A Dina kæi Lijina, koju rodi Jakovu, izaðe da gleda djevojke u onom kraju.
And Dina, the daughter of Lea, whom she bore to Jacob, went forth to observe the daughters of the inhabitants.
2 A ugleda je Sihem, sin Emora Evejina, kneza od one zemlje, i uze je i leže s njom i osramoti je.
And Sychem the son of Emmor the Evite, the ruler of the land, saw her, and 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 he was attached to the soul of Dina the daughter of Jacob, and he loved the damsel, and he spoke kindly to the damsel.
4 I reèe Sihem Emoru ocu svojemu govoreæi: oženi me ovom djevojkom.
Sychem spoke to Emmor his father, saying, Take for 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.
And Jacob heard that the son of Emmor had defiled Dina his daughter (now his sons were with his cattle in the plain). And Jacob was silent until they came.
6 A Emor otac Sihemov izide k Jakovu da se razgovori s njim.
And Emmor the father of Sychem went forth to Jacob, to speak to 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 from the plain; and when they heard, the men were deeply pained, and it was very grievous to them, because [the man] wrought folly in Israel, having lain with the daughter of Jacob, and so it must not be.
8 Tada im reèe Emor govoreæi: sin moj Sihem srcem prionu za vašu kæer; podajte mu je za ženu.
And Emmor spoke to them, saying, Sychem my son has chosen in his heart your daughter; give her therefore to him for a wife,
9 I oprijateljite se s nama; kæeri svoje udajite za nas i kæerima našim ženite se.
and intermarry with us. Give us your daughters, and take our daughters for your sons.
10 Pa živite s nama, i zemlja æe vam biti otvorena; nastanite se i trgujte i držite baštine u njoj.
And dwell in the midst of us; and, behold, the land is spacious before you, dwell in it, and trade, and get possessions in it.
11 I reèe Sihem ocu djevojèinu i braæi joj: da naðem milost pred vama, i daæu što mi god kažete.
And Sychem said to her father and to her brothers, I would find grace before you, and we will give whatever you shall name.
12 Ištite mi koliko god hoæete uzdarja i dara, ja æu dati što god kažete; samo mi dajte djevojku za ženu.
Multiply [your demand of] dowry very much, and I will give accordingly as you shall say to me, only you shall give me this damsel for a wife.
13 A sinovi Jakovljevi odgovoriše Sihemu i Emoru ocu njegovu prijevarno, jer osramoti Dinu sestru njihovu.
And the sons of Jacob answered to Sychem and Emmor his father craftily, and spoke to them, because they had defiled Dina their sister.
14 I rekoše im: ne možemo to uèiniti ni dati sestre svoje za èovjeka neobrezana, jer je to sramota nama.
And Symeon and Levi, the brothers of Dina, said to them, We shall not be able to do this thing, to give our sister to a man who is uncircumcised, for it is a reproach to us.
15 Nego æemo vam uèiniti po volji, ako æete se izjednaèiti s nama i obrezati sve muškinje izmeðu sebe.
Only on these terms will we conform to you, and dwell among you, if you also will be as we are, in that every male of you be circumcised.
16 Onda æemo udavati svoje kæeri za vas i ženiæemo se vašim kæerima, i postaæemo jedan narod.
And we will give our daughters to you, and we will take of your daughters for wives to us, and we will dwell with you, and we will be as one race.
17 Ako li ne pristanete da se obrežete, mi æemo uzeti svoju djevojku i otiæi æemo.
But if you will not listen to us to be circumcised, we will take our daughter and depart.
18 I po volji biše rijeèi njihove Emoru i Sihemu sinu Emorovu.
And the words pleased Emmor, and Sychem the son of Emmor.
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 delayed not to do this thing, for he was much attached to Jacob's daughter, and he was the most honorable of all in his father's house.
20 I otide Emor i sin mu Sihem na vrata grada svojega, i rekoše graðanima govoreæi:
And Emmor and Sychem his son came to the gate of their city, and spoke to 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 peaceful, let them dwell with us upon the land, and let them trade in it, and behold the land is extensive before them; we will take their daughters to us for wives, and we will 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 these terms will the men conform to us to dwell with us so as to be one people, if every male of us be circumcised, as they also 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.
And shall not their cattle and their herds, and their possessions, be ours? only in this let us conform to 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 all that went in at the gate of their city listened to Emmor and Sychem his son, and they were circumcised in the flesh of their foreskin every male.
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, the two sons of Jacob, Symeon and Levi, Dina's brethren, took each man his sword, and came upon the city securely, and killed every male.
26 Ubiše i Emora i sina mu Sihema oštrim maèem, i uzevši Dinu iz kuæe Sihemove otidoše.
And they killed Emmor and Sychem his son with the edge of the sword, and took Dina out of the house of Sychem, and went forth.
27 Tada doðoše sinovi Jakovljevi na pobijene, i oplijeniše grad, jer u njemu bi osramoæena sestra njihova.
But the sons of Jacob came upon the wounded, and ravaged the city wherein they had defiled Dina their sister.
28 I uzeše ovce njihove i goveda njihova i magarce njihove, što god bješe u gradu i što god bješe u polju.
And their sheep, and their oxen, and their asses they took, and all things whatever were in the city, and whatever were in the plain.
29 I sve blago njihovo, i svu djecu i žene njihove pohvataše i odvedoše, i što god bješe u kojoj kuæi.
And they took captive all the persons of them, and all their store, and their wives, and plundered both whatever things there were in the city, and whatever things there were in the houses.
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 Symeon and Levi, You have made me hateful so that I should be evil to all the inhabitants of the land, both among the Chananites and the Pherezites, and I am few in number; they will gather themselves against me and cut me in pieces, and I shall be utterly destroyed, and my house.
31 A oni rekoše: zar sa sestrom našom da rade kao s kurvom?
And they said, Nay, but shall they treat our sister as an harlot?
