Sudije 12

1 A ljudi od plemena Jefremova skupiše se, i prešavši na sjever rekoše Jeftaju: zašto si išao u boj na sinove Amonove a nas nijesi pozvao da idemo s tobom? spaliæemo ognjem dom tvoj i tebe.

And the men of Ephraim were called together, and passed over northward, —and said unto Jephthah—Wherefore didst thou pass over to do battle with the sons of Ammon, and, for us, didst not call, to go with thee? Thy house, will we consume over thee with fire.

2 A Jeftaj im reèe: imah veliku raspru sa sinovima Amonovijem ja i moj narod, i pozvah vas, ali me ne izbaviste iz ruku njegovijeh.

And Jephthah said unto them, Great strife, had, I and my people, even with the sons of Ammon; but, when I cried unto you for help, ye saved me not out of their hand.

3 Pa videæi da me ne izbaviste, stavih dušu svoju u ruku svoju, i otidoh na sinove Amonove, i Gospod mi ih dade u ruke; pa što ste sada došli k meni da se bijete sa mnom?

So, when I saw that thou wast not going to save, then put I my life in my hand, and passed over against the sons of Ammon, and Yahweh delivered them into my hand. Wherefore, then, have ye come up against me this day, to fight against me?

4 Tada Jeftaj skupi sve ljude od Galada, i udari na Jefrema; i ljudi od Galada pobiše Jefrema; jer govorahu: bjegunci ste Jefremovi vi, ljudi od Galada, koji se bavite meðu Jefremom i meðu Manasijom.

And Jephthah gathered together all the men of Gilead, and fought with Ephraim, —and the men of Gilead smote Ephraim, because they said—Fugitives of Ephraim, are, ye, O ye Gileadites, in the midst of Ephraim, in the midst of Manasseh.

5 I Galad uze Jefremu brodove Jordanske. I kad koji od Jefrema dobježe i reèe: pusti me da prijeðem, rekoše mu oni od Galada: jesi li od Jefrema? I kad on reèe: nijesam,

And the Gileadites captured the fords of the Jordan, against the Ephraimites, —and so it was, that, when the fugitives of Ephraim said, Let me pass over, the men of Gilead said to him, An Ephraimite, art thou? and, if he said—Nay!

6 Onda mu rekoše: reci: Šibolet. A on reèe: Sibolet, ne moguæi dobro izgovoriti. Tada ga uhvatiše i zaklaše na brodu Jordanskom. I pogibe u ono vrijeme iz plemena Jefremova èetrdeset i dvije tisuæe.

they said to him, Come now, say Shibboleth, and, if he said Sibboleth, and he could not take heed to speak in that manner, then laid they hold on him, and slew him at the fords of the Jordan, —and there fell, at that time, of the Ephraimites, forty-two thousand.

7 I Jeftaj bi sudija Izrailju šest godina; i umrije, i bi pogreben u gradu Galadskom.

And, when Jephthah had judged Israel six years, then Jephthah the Gileadite died, and was buried in [one of] the cities of Gilead.

8 A poslije njega bi sudija Izrailju Avesan iz Vitlejema.

And there judged Israel, after him, Ibzan of Bethlehem.

9 I imaše trideset sinova i trideset kæeri, koje razuda iz kuæe, a trideset djevojaka dovede sinovima svojim iz drugih kuæa; i bi sudija Izrailju sedam godina.

And so it was, he had thirty sons, and, thirty daughters, sent he abroad, while, thirty daughters, brought he from abroad for his sons. And he judged Israel seven years.

10 Potom umrije Avesan, i bi pogreben u Vitlejemu.

And Ibzan died, and was buried in Bethlehem.

11 A poslije njega bi sudija Izrailju Elon od Zavulona; on bi sudija Izrailju deset godina.

And, after him, did Elon the Zebulunite judge Israel, —and he judged Israel, ten years.

12 Potom umrije Elon od Zavulona i bi pogreben u Ajalonu u zemlji Zavulonovoj.

And Elon the Zebulunite died, and was buried in Aijalon, in the land of Zebulun.

13 Poslije njega bi sudija Izrailju Avdon sin Elilov Faratonjanin.

And there judged Israel, after him, Abdon son of Hillel, the Pirathonite.

14 On imaše èetrdeset sinova i trideset unuka, koji jahahu sedamdesetoro magaradi. I bi sudija Izrailju osam godina.

And so it was, he had forty sons and thirty grandsons, who rode on seventy ass colts, —and he judged Israel eight years.

15 Potom umrije Avdon sin Elilov Faratonjanin, i bi pogreben u Faratonu u zemlji Jefremovoj na gori Amalièkoj.

And Abdon son of Hillel, the Pirathonite died, —and was buried in Pirathon, in the land of Ephraim, in the hill country of the Amalekites.
