Judges 12

And the men of Ephraim gathered themselves together, and went northward, and said unto Jephthah, Wherefore passedst thou over to fight against the children of Ammon, and didst not call us to go with thee? we will burn thine house upon thee with fire.

Uto se skupiše ljudi od Efrajimova plemena, prijeđoše Jordan put Safona i rekoše Jiftahu. "Zašto si išao u boj protiv Amonaca a nas nisi pozvao da idemo s tobom? Spalit ćemo ti kuću i tebe!"

And Jephthah said unto them, I and my people were at great strife with the children of Ammon; and when I called you, ye delivered me not out of their hands.

Jiftah im odgovori: "Imali smo veliku parbu, ja i moj narod, i Amonci su nas teško tlačili. Pozvao sam vas u pomoć, ali me niste izbavili iz njihovih ruku.

And when I saw that ye delivered me not, I put my life in my hands, and passed over against the children of Ammon, and the LORD delivered them into my hand: wherefore then are ye come up unto me this day, to fight against me?

Videći da mi nitko ne pritječe u pomoć, stavih svoj život na kocku, odoh sam na Amonce, i Jahve mi ih predade u ruke. Zašto ste, dakle, pošli danas da ratujete protiv mene?"

Then Jephthah gathered together all the men of Gilead, and fought with Ephraim: and the men of Gilead smote Ephraim, because they said, Ye Gileadites are fugitives of Ephraim among the Ephraimites, and among the Manassites.

Tada skupi Jiftah sve Gileađane i udari na Efrajima. Gileađani potukoše Efrajima, jer su ovi govorili: "Vi ste, Gileađani, Efrajimovi bjegunci koji ste živjeli usred Efrajima i Manašea."

And the Gileadites took the passages of Jordan before the Ephraimites: and it was so, that when those Ephraimites which were escaped said, Let me go over; that the men of Gilead said unto him, Art thou an Ephraimite? If he said, Nay;

Zatim Gileađani presjekoše Efrajimu jordanske gazove, i kada bi koji bjegunac Efrajimov rekao: "Pustite me da prijeđem", Gileađani bi ga pitali: "Jesi li Efrajimovac?" A kada bi on odgovorio: "Nisam",

Then said they unto him, Say now Shibboleth: and he said Sibboleth: for he could not frame to pronounce it right. Then they took him, and slew him at the passages of Jordan: and there fell at that time of the Ephraimites forty and two thousand.

oni bi mu kazali: "Hajde reci: Šibolet!" On bi rekao: "Sibolet" jer nije mogao dobro izgovoriti. Oni bi ga tada uhvatili i pogubili na jordanskim plićacima. Tako je poginulo četrdeset i dvije tisuće ljudi iz Efrajimova plemena.

And Jephthah judged Israel six years. Then died Jephthah the Gileadite, and was buried in one of the cities of Gilead.

Jiftah je sudio Izraelu šest godina. A kada je Gileađanin Jiftah umro, pokopaše ga u njegovu gradu, u Gileadu.

And after him Ibzan of Beth–lehem judged Israel.

Poslije njega sudac u Izraelu bijaše Ibsan iz Betlehema.

And he had thirty sons, and thirty daughters, whom he sent abroad, and took in thirty daughters from abroad for his sons. And he judged Israel seven years.

On je imao trideset sinova i trideset kćeri, koje je poudao iz kuće, a trideset je snaha doveo izvana svojim sinovima. On je sudio Izraelu sedam godina.

Then died Ibzan, and was buried at Beth–lehem.

Zatim umrije Ibsan i pokopaše ga u Betlehemu.

And after him Elon, a Zebulonite, judged Israel; and he judged Israel ten years.

Poslije njega sudac u Izraelu bijaše Elon Zebulunac. On je sudio Izraelu deset godina.

And Elon the Zebulonite died, and was buried in Aijalon in the country of Zebulun.

Zatim umrije Zebulunac Elon i pokopaše ga u Ajalonu u zemlji Zebulunovoj.

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

Poslije njega sudac u Izraelu bijaše Abdon, sin Hilela iz Pireatona.

And he had forty sons and thirty nephews, that rode on threescore and ten ass colts: and he judged Israel eight years.

On je imao četrdeset sinova i trideset unuka koji su jahali na sedamdesetero magaradi. On je sudio Izraelu osam godina.

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

Zatim umrije Abdon, sin Hilela iz Pireatona, i pokopaše ga u Pireatonu u Efrajimovoj gori, u zemlji Šaalimu.
