Jozue 10
1 Pripetilo se je torej, ko je jeruzalemski kralj Adoní Cedek slišal, kako je Józue zavzel Aj in ga popolnoma uničil; kakor je storil Jerihi in njenemu kralju, tako je storil Aju in njegovemu kralju; in kako so prebivalci Gibeóna sklenili mir z Izraelom in so bili med njimi;
Adoni-zedek, king of Jerusalem, learned that Joshua had captured Ai and destroyed the town completely, as he had also done to Jericho, and had killed its king, just as he had the king of Jericho. He also heard that the Gibeonites had made peace with the Israelites and were allied with them.
2 da so se silno bali, ker je bil Gibeón veliko mesto, kakor eno izmed kraljevskih mest in ker je bil večji kakor Aj in vsi njihovi možje so bili mogočni.
The people of Jerusalem were very frightened by this because Gibeon was a large town—as large as any town ruled by the king, and larger than Ai, and its men were tough fighters.
3 Zato je jeruzalemski kralj Adoní Cedek poslal k Hohámu, kralju v Hebrónu in Pirámu, kralju v Jarmútu in Jafíju, kralju v Lahíšu in Debírju, kralju v Eglónu, rekoč:
So Adoni-zedek, king of Jerusalem, sent a message to Hoham, king of Hebron, Piram, king of Jarmuth, Japhia, king of Lachish, and Debir, king of Eglon, saying,
4 »Pridite gor k meni in mi pomagajte, da bomo lahko udarili Gibeón, kajti ta je sklenil mir z Józuetom in z Izraelovimi otroki.«
“Come and help me attack Gibeon because they have made peace with Joshua and the Israelites.”
5 Zato se je pet kraljev izmed Amoréjcev, kralj iz Jeruzalema, kralj iz Hebróna, kralj iz Jarmúta, kralj iz Lahíša in kralj iz Eglóna, zbralo skupaj in odšlo gor, oni in vse njihove vojske in se utaborili pred Gibeónom in začeli vojno zoper njega.
So these five Amorite kings (the kings of Jerusalem, Hebron, Jarmuth, Lachish, and Eglon) and their armies gathered and set off. They surrounded Gibeon and then began their attack.
6 Možje iz Gibeóna so poslali k Józuetu, v tabor pri Gilgálu, rekoč: »Ne odtegni svoje roke od svojih služabnikov. Hitro pridi gor k nam in nas reši in nam pomagaj, kajti vsi kralji Amoréjcev, ki prebivajo po gorah, so skupaj zbrani zoper nas.«
The Gibeonites sent a message to Joshua at the camp in Gilgal, saying, “Please don't abandon us, your servants! Come quickly and save us! We need your help for all the Amorite kings of the hill country have joined in attacking us.”
7 Tako se je Józue vzpel iz Gilgála, on in vse bojno ljudstvo z njim in vsi močni junaški možje.
So Joshua, all his fighting men and best fighters, set off from Gilgal.
8 Gospod je rekel Józuetu: »Ne boj se jih, kajti izročil sem jih v tvojo roko. Niti mož izmed njih ne bo obstal pred teboj.«
The Lord had said to Joshua, “Don't be afraid of them, for you will defeat them. Not a single one will be able to stand against you.”
9 Józue je torej nenadoma prišel k njim in vso noč so hodili gor od Gilgála.
By marching all night from Gilgal, Joshua arrived without warning.
10 Gospod jih je porazil pred Izraelom ter jih pri Gibeónu usmrtil z velikim pobojem in jih zasledoval na poti, ki gre gor do Bet Horóna in jih udarjal do Azéke in proti Makédi.
The Lord threw the Amorite armies into a panic when they saw the Israelites. He struck them down with a great blow at Gibeon; he chased them all the way up to Beth-horon, cutting them down on the way to Azekah and Makkedah.
11 Ko so bežali izpred Izraela in so bili pri spuščanju dol k Bet Horónu, se je pripetilo, da je Gospod z neba nanje metal velike kamne do Azéke in so umrli. Bilo jih je več, ki so umrli od kamnite toče, kakor tistih, ki so jih Izraelovi otroci usmrtili z mečem.
As they ran away from the Israelites down the slope from Beth-horon, the Lord hurled large hailstones down on them from the skies all the way to Azekah. More were killed by the hailstones than we killed by the swords of the Israelites.
12 Potem je Józue spregovoril Gospodu na dan, ko je pred Izraelovimi otroki Gospod izročil Amoréjce in rekel pred očmi Izraela: »Sonce, ti stoj mirno nad Gibeónom in ti luna v dolini Ajalón.«
On the day that the Lord handed the Amorites over to the Israelites, Joshua spoke by the Lord in the presence of the Israelites, saying, “Sun, stand still over Gibeon! Moon, stand still over the Valley of Aijalon!”
13 Sonce je stalo mirno in luna je obstala, dokler se ljudstvo ni maščevalo nad svojimi sovražniki. Mar ni to zapisano v Jasherjevi knjigi? Tako je sonce mirno stalo na sredi neba in približno cel dan ni pohitelo, da bi zašlo.
The sun stopped moving, and the moon stood still, until the nation of Israel had inflicted defeat on their enemies. (This is recorded in the Book of Jashar). The sun stopped in the middle of the sky and did not go down for around a full day.
14 Pred tem niti za tem ni bilo takšnega dne, da bi Gospod prisluhnil glasu moža, kajti Gospod se je bojeval za Izrael.
There wasn't a day like this ever before or since when the Lord listened to a human voice in such a way. It was because the Lord was fighting for Israel.
15 Józue se je vrnil in ves Izrael z njim, k taboru pri Gilgálu.
Then Joshua and all the army returned to the camp at Gilgal.
16 Toda teh pet kraljev je pobegnilo in se skrilo v votlini pri Makédi.
The five kings had run away and hid in a cave at Makkedah.
17 To je bilo povedano Józuetu, rekoč: »Pet kraljev je najdenih skritih v votlini pri Makédi.«
When Joshua was told that the five kings were hiding in a cave at Makkedah,
18 Józue je rekel: »Na odprtino votline zavalite velike kamne in poleg postavite može, da jih varujejo.
he gave this order, “Roll some large stones to block the entrance to the cave and have some men guard it.
19 Ne stojte, temveč sledite za svojimi sovražniki in udarite najbolj zadnje izmed njih. Ne trpite, da vstopijo v svoja mesta, kajti Gospod, vaš Bog, jih je izročil v vašo roko.«
But don't you stay there. Chase the enemy down and attack them from the rear. Don't let them escape to their towns for the Lord has given them to you to defeat.”
20 Pripetilo se je, ko so Józue in Izraelovi otroci z zelo velikim pokolom, dokler niso bili použiti, naredili konec njihovemu pobijanju, da je preostanek, ki je preostal izmed njih, vstopil v utrjena mesta.
So Joshua and the Israelites totally defeated them, striking them down and killing them. Only a few of them survived to escape back to their towns.
21 In vse ljudstvo se je v miru vrnilo k taboru, k Józuetu, pri Makédi. Nihče ni svojega jezika premaknil zoper kateregakoli izmed Izraelovih otrok.
The army returned to Joshua at the camp at Makkedah, and no one dared even to threaten the Israelites.
22 Potem je Józue rekel: »Odprite odprtino votline in teh pet kraljev privedite k meni, ven iz votline.«
Then Joshua said, “Open the cave entrance and bring out the five kings to me from the cave.”
23 Storili so tako in iz votline so k njemu privedli teh pet kraljev, kralja iz Jeruzalema, kralja iz Hebróna, kralja iz Jarmúta, kralja iz Lahíša in kralja iz Eglóna.
So they did, bringing out the five kings from the cave—the kings of Jerusalem, Hebron, Jarmuth, Lachish, and Eglon.
24 Ko so te kralje privedli k Józuetu, se je pripetilo, da je Józue dal poklicati vse Izraelove može in rekel poveljnikom bojevnikov, ki so odšli z njim: »Pridite bliže, položite svoja stopala na vratove teh kraljev.« Približali so se in svoja stopala položili na njihove vratove.
When they had brought the kings to Joshua, he summoned all the fighting men, and said to the commanders who had gone with him, “Come here, and put your feet on the necks of these kings.” So they came over and put their feet on their necks.
25 Józue jim je rekel: »Ne bojte se niti ne bodite zaprepadeni, bodite močni in odločnega poguma, kajti tako bo Gospod storil vsem vašim sovražnikom, zoper katere se borite.«
Joshua said to them, “Don't ever be afraid or discouraged! Be strong and be brave! For the Lord is going to do the same thing to all your enemies that you're going to fight!”
26 Potem jih je Józue udaril, jih usmrtil in jih obesil na pet dreves; in do večera so viseli na drevesih.
Then Joshua killed the kings and hung their bodies on five trees and left them hanging there until the evening.
27 Ob času zahajanja sonca pa se je pripetilo, da je Józue zapovedal in so jih sneli iz dreves in jih vrgli v votlino, v kateri so bili skriti in na ustje votline so položili velike kamne, ki ostajajo do točno tega dne.
As the sun went down Joshua gave the order to take their bodies down from the trees and throw them into the cave where they had been hiding. Then the Israelites piled up stones over the entrance to the cave, and they are there to this very day.
28 Ta dan je Józue zavzel Makédo in jo udaril z ostrino meča in njenega kralja je popolnoma uničil, njih in vse duše, ki so bile tam. Nikogar ni pustil ostati. Kralju v Makédi pa je storil, kakor je storil kralju v Jerihi.
That day Joshua captured Makkedah, killing all its inhabitants, including the king. He set it apart and completely destroyed it and everyone in it, leaving no survivors. He killed the king of Makkedah just as he had killed the king of Jericho.
29 Potem je Józue in ves Izrael z njim, prešel od Makéde v Libno in se boril zoper Libno.
Then Joshua and the Israelite army left Makkedah and went to attack Libnah,
30 Tudi njo je Gospod izročil in njenega kralja, v Izraelovo roko. Udaril jo je z ostrino meča in vse duše, ki so bile v njej. Nikogar ni pustil preostati v njej, toda njenemu kralju je storil, kakor je storil kralju Jerihe.
and the Lord gave the town and its king to the Israelites. Joshua had everyone in it killed, leaving no survivors. He killed its king just as he had killed the king of Jericho.
31 Józue in ves Izrael z njim, je prešel od Libne do Lahíša in se utaboril zoper njega in se boril zoper njega.
Then Joshua and the Israelite army moved on from Libnah to Lachish, surrounding the town and attacking it.
32 Gospod je Lahíš izročil v Izraelovo roko, ki so ga zavzeli na drugi dan in ga udaril z ostrino meča in vse duše, ki so bile tam, glede na vse, kar je storil Libni.
The Lord gave the town to the Israelites who captured it on the second day. Joshua had everyone in it killed, just as he had done in Libnah.
33 Potem je prišel gor Horám, kralj v Gezerju, da pomaga Lahíšu, in Józue je udaril njega in njegovo ljudstvo, dokler nikogar ni pustil preostati.
Then Horam, king of Gezer, came with his army to help Lachish, but Joshua and his men killed them, leaving no survivors.
34 Iz Lahíša je Józue prešel do Eglóna in ves Izrael z njim in utaborili so se zoper njega in se borili zoper njega.
Joshua and the Israelite army moved on from Lachish to Eglon, surrounding the town and attacking it.
35 Zavzeli so ga na ta dan in ga udarili z ostrino meča in vse duše, ki so bile tam, je ta dan popolnoma uničil, glede na vse, kar je storil Lahíšu.
They captured it the same day. Joshua had everyone in it killed that very day. He set it apart and completely destroyed it, just as he had done in Lachish.
36 Józue in ves Izrael z njim, je odšel gor od Eglóna, do Hebróna in so se borili zoper njega,
Joshua and the Israelite army left Eglon and went to attack Hebron.
37 ga zavzeli in udarili z ostrino meča in njihovega kralja in vsa njihova mesta in vse duše, ki so bile v njem. Nikogar ni pustil preostati, glede na vse, kar je storil Eglónu, temveč ga je popolnoma uničil in vse duše, ki so bile v njem.
They captured the town, as well as the towns nearby. Joshua had all the inhabitants killed, leaving no survivors. Just as he had done in Eglon, he set it apart and completely destroyed it and everyone in it.
38 Józue se je vrnil in ves Izrael z njim, do Debírja in se boril zoper njega
Then Joshua and the Israelite army turned and went to attack Debir.
39 in ga zavzel in njegovega kralja in vsa njegova mesta. Udarili so jih z ostrino meča in popolnoma uničili vse duše, ki so bile v njem. Nikogar ni pustil preostati. Kakor je storil Hebrónu, tako je storil Debírju in njegovemu kralju, kakor je storil tudi Libni in njenemu kralju.
He captured it and its king and all the towns nearby. Joshua had all the inhabitants killed, leaving no survivors. Just as he had done in Hebron, he set it apart and completely destroyed it and everyone in it. He killed the king of Debir just as he had killed the king of Libnah.
40 Tako je Józue udaril vso hribovito deželo, južno [deželo], [deželo] dolin, izvirov in vse njihove kralje. Ničesar ni pustil preostati, temveč je popolnoma uničil vse, kar je dihalo, kakor je zapovedal Gospod, Izraelov Bog.
So Joshua conquered the whole land—the hill country, the Negev, the foothills, and the slopes—and all their kings. He didn't leave a single survivor. He killed everyone as the Lord, the God of Israel, had commanded.
41 Józue jih je udarjal od Kadeš Barnée, celo do Gaze in vso Gošensko pokrajino, celo do Gibeóna.
Joshua destroyed them from Kadesh-barnea to Gaza and the whole of the land from Goshen to Gibeon.
42 Vse te kralje in njihove dežele je Józue zavzel naenkrat, ker se je Gospod, Izraelov Bog, boril za Izrael.
All the kings and their lands were conquered by Joshua in one campaign because the Lord, the God of Israel, was fighting for the Israelites.
43 In Józue se je vrnil in ves Izrael z njim, v tabor h Gilgálu.
Joshua and the Israelite army then returned to the camp at Gilgal.
