Judges 2

Anđeo Jahvin dođe iz Gilgala u Bokim i reče: "Izveo sam vas iz Egipta i doveo vas u zemlju koju sam vam obećao zaklevši se ocima vašim. Rekao sam: 'Neću raskinuti Saveza svog s vama dovijeka.

And an angel of the LORD came up from Gilgal to Bochim, and said, I made you to go up out of Egypt, and have brought you unto the land which I sware unto your fathers; and I said, I will never break my covenant with you.

A vi ne sklapajte saveza sa stanovnicima ove zemlje; nego rušite njihove žrtvenike!' Ali vi niste poslušali moga glasa. Što ste učinili?

And ye shall make no league with the inhabitants of this land; ye shall throw down their altars: but ye have not obeyed my voice: why have ye done this?

Zato vam kažem: neću ih odagnati pred vama. Nego, oni će vas tlačiti i bogovi njihovi bit će vam zamkom."

Wherefore I also said, I will not drive them out from before you; but they shall be as thorns in your sides, and their gods shall be a snare unto you.

Kad Anđeo Jahvin izreče te riječi svim Izraelcima, narod zakuka i zaplaka.

And it came to pass, when the angel of the LORD spake these words unto all the children of Israel, that the people lifted up their voice, and wept.

I tako prozvaše ono mjesto Bokim i ondje prinesoše žrtve Jahvi.

And they called the name of that place Bochim: and they sacrificed there unto the LORD.

Tada Jošua otpusti narod i raziđoše se Izraelci svaki na svoju baštinu da zaposjednu zemlju.

And when Joshua had let the people go, the children of Israel went every man unto his inheritance to possess the land.

Narod je služio Jahvi svega vijeka Jošuina i svega vijeka starješina koje su nadživjele Jošuu i vidjele sva velika djela što ih je Jahve učinio Izraelu.

And the people served the LORD all the days of Joshua, and all the days of the elders that outlived Joshua, who had seen all the great works of the LORD, that he did for Israel.

Jošua, sin Nunov, sluga Jahvin, umrije u dobi od sto deset godina.

And Joshua the son of Nun, the servant of the LORD, died, being an hundred and ten years old.

Sahraniše ga u kraju što ga je baštinio u Timnat Heresu, u Efrajimovoj gori, sjeverno od planine Gaaša.

And they buried him in the border of his inheritance in Timnath–heres, in the mount of Ephraim, on the north side of the hill Gaash.

A kada se sav onaj naraštaj pridružio svojim ocima, naslijedi ga drugi naraštaj koji nije mario za Jahvu ni za djela što ih je učinio Izraelu.

And also all that generation were gathered unto their fathers: and there arose another generation after them, which knew not the LORD, nor yet the works which he had done for Israel.

Tada su sinovi Izraelovi počeli činiti ono što Jahvi nije po volji i služili su baalima.

And the children of Israel did evil in the sight of the LORD, and served Baalim:

Ostaviše Jahvu, Boga otaca svojih, koji ih je izveo iz zemlje egipatske, i pođoše za drugim bogovima između bogova okolnih naroda. Klanjahu im se, razgnjeviše Jahvu.

And they forsook the LORD God of their fathers, which brought them out of the land of Egypt, and followed other gods, of the gods of the people that were round about them, and bowed themselves unto them, and provoked the LORD to anger.

Otpali su od Jahve da bi služili Baalu i Aštarti.

And they forsook the LORD, and served Baal and Ashtaroth.

Zato Jahve izli gnjev svoj na Izraela: prepusti ih pljačkašima da ih plijene, izruči ih neprijateljima uokolo, tako te se ne mogoše oduprijeti.

And the anger of the LORD was hot against Israel, and he delivered them into the hands of spoilers that spoiled them, and he sold them into the hands of their enemies round about, so that they could not any longer stand before their enemies.

Što bi god počeli, ruka se Jahvina okretala protiv njih na njihovu nesreću, kao što im je Jahve rekao i kao što im se zakleo. I tako zapadoše u veliku nevolju.

Whithersoever they went out, the hand of the LORD was against them for evil, as the LORD had said, and as the LORD had sworn unto them: and they were greatly distressed.

Tada im Jahve stade podizati suce da ih izbavljaju iz ruku onih koji su ih pljačkali.

Nevertheless the LORD raised up judges, which delivered them out of the hand of those that spoiled them.

Ali oni ni svojih sudaca nisu slušali, nego se iznevjeriše s drugim bogovima te im se klanjahu. Brzo su zašli s puta kojim su išli oci njihovi slušajući Jahvine zapovijedi; oni nisu činili tako.

And yet they would not hearken unto their judges, but they went a whoring after other gods, and bowed themselves unto them: they turned quickly out of the way which their fathers walked in, obeying the commandments of the LORD; but they did not so.

Kada im je podizao suce, Jahve bijaše sa svakim sucem te ih izbavljaše iz ruku njihovih neprijatelja za svega vijeka sučeva, jer se sažalilo Jahvi koliko su uzdisali pod jarmom onih koji su ih ugnjetavali.

And when the LORD raised them up judges, then the LORD was with the judge, and delivered them out of the hand of their enemies all the days of the judge: for it repented the LORD because of their groanings by reason of them that oppressed them and vexed them.

A kada bi sudac umro, oni bi opet zapadali u veću pokvarenost nego njihovi oci. Išli su za drugim bogovima, služili im i klanjali im se, ne odustajući od svojih opakih djela i postupaka.

And it came to pass, when the judge was dead, that they returned, and corrupted themselves more than their fathers, in following other gods to serve them, and to bow down unto them; they ceased not from their own doings, nor from their stubborn way.

Tada Jahve planu gnjevom na Izraela i reče: "Kad je taj narod pogazio Savez kojim sam obvezao njihove očeve i nije poslušao glasa moga,

And the anger of the LORD was hot against Israel; and he said, Because that this people hath transgressed my covenant which I commanded their fathers, and have not hearkened unto my voice;

ni ja odsad neću pred njim potjerati ni jednoga između naroda što ih je Jošua po svojoj smrti ostavio",

I also will not henceforth drive out any from before them of the nations which Joshua left when he died:

da bi njima stavio na kušnju Izraela: hoće li se ili neće držati Jahvinih putova kao što ih se držahu oci njihovi.

That through them I may prove Israel, whether they will keep the way of the LORD to walk therein, as their fathers did keep it, or not.

Zato Jahve bijaše ostavio te narode i nije ih odmah izagnao ni predao Jošui u ruke.

Therefore the LORD left those nations, without driving them out hastily; neither delivered he them into the hand of Joshua.
