WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 A ljudi od plemena Jefremovog rekoše mu: Šta nam to učini te nas ne pozva kad pođe u boj na Madijane? I vikahu na nj žestoko.
1 The men of Ephraim said to him, “Why have you treated us this way, that you didn’t call us when you went to fight with Midian?” They rebuked him sharply.
2 A on im reče: Pa šta sam učinio tako kao vi? Nije li pabirčenje Jefremovo bolje nego berba Avijezerova?
2 He said to them, “What have I now done in comparison with you? Isn’t the gleaning of the grapes of Ephraim better than the vintage of Abiezer?
3 Vama je u ruke dao Gospod knezove madijanske, Oriva i Ziva; pa šta ja mogoh učiniti tako kao vi? Tada se utiša duh njihov prema njemu kad tako govori.
3 God has delivered into your hand the princes of Midian, Oreb and Zeeb! What was I able to do in comparison with you?” Then their anger was abated toward him when he had said that.
4 A kad Gedeon dođe na Jordan, pređe preko njega s trista ljudi koji behu s njim, a behu umorni goneći.
4 Gideon came to the Jordan and passed over, he and the three hundred men who were with him, faint, yet pursuing.
5 Pa reče ljudima Sokoćanima: Dajte nekoliko hlebova narodu koji ide za mnom, jer su umorni, a ja gonim Zeveja i Salmana careve madijanske.
5 He said to the men of Succoth, “Please give loaves of bread to the people who follow me; for they are faint, and I am pursuing after Zebah and Zalmunna, the kings of Midian.”
6 A glavari sokotski rekoše mu: Je li pesnica Zevejeva i Salmanova već u tvojoj ruci da damo hleba tvojoj vojsci?
6 The princes of Succoth said, “Are the hands of Zebah and Zalmunna now in your hand, that we should give bread to your army?”
7 A Gedeon im reče: Kad mi Bog preda Zeveja i Salmana u ruke, tada ću pomlatiti telesa vaša trnjem iz ove pustinje i dračom.
7 Gideon said, “Therefore when Yahweh has delivered Zebah and Zalmunna into my hand, then I will tear your flesh with the thorns of the wilderness and with briers.”
8 I otide odande u Fanuil, i reče Fanuiljanima isto onako, a oni mu odgovoriše kao što odgovoriše ljudi u Sokotu.
8 He went up there to Penuel, and spoke to them in the same way; and the men of Penuel answered him as the men of Succoth had answered.
9 Zato i ljudima Fanuiljanima reče: Kad se vratim zdravo, razvaliću tu kulu.
9 He spoke also to the men of Penuel, saying, “When I come again in peace, I will break down this tower.”
10 A Zevej i Salman behu u Karkoru, i vojska njihova s njima, oko petnaest hiljada, što ih god osta od sve vojske istočne; a pobijenih beše sto i dvadeset hiljada ljudi koji mahahu mačem.
10 Now Zebah and Zalmunna were in Karkor, and their armies with them, about fifteen thousand men, all who were left of all the army of the children of the east; for there fell one hundred twenty thousand men who drew sword.
11 I otide Gedeon preko onih što žive pod šatorima, s istoka Novi i Jogveji, i udari na vojsku kad vojska stajaše bezbrižna.
11 Gideon went up by the way of those who lived in tents on the east of Nobah and Jogbehah, and struck the army; for the army felt secure.
12 A Zevej i Salman pobegoše, a on ih potera, i uhvati dva cara madijanska, Zeveja i Salmana, i raspudi svu vojsku.
12 Zebah and Zalmunna fled and he pursued them. He took the two kings of Midian, Zebah and Zalmunna, and confused all the army.
13 I vrati se Gedeon sin Joasov iz boja pre sunčanog rođaja.
13 Gideon the son of Joash returned from the battle from the ascent of Heres.
14 I uhvati momka iz Sokota, i ispitiva ga; a on mu popisa knezove sokotske i starešine, sedamdeset i sedam ljudi.
14 He caught a young man of the men of Succoth, and inquired of him; and he described for him the princes of Succoth, and its elders, seventy-seven men.
15 Pa kad dođe k Sokoćanima, reče: Evo Zeveja i Salmana, za koje mi se rugaste govoreći: Je li pesnica Zevejeva i Salmanova već u tvojoj ruci, da damo hleba umornim ljudima tvojim?
15 He came to the men of Succoth, and said, “See Zebah and Zalmunna, concerning whom you taunted me, saying, ‘Are the hands of Zebah and Zalmunna now in your hand, that we should give bread to your men who are weary?’”
16 I uzevši starešine onog mesta i trnja iz pustinje i drače dade na njima ugled Sokoćanima.
16 He took the elders of the city, and thorns of the wilderness and briers, and with them he taught the men of Succoth.
17 I kulu fanuilsku razvali i pobi ljude tamošnje.
17 He broke down the tower of Penuel, and killed the men of the city.
18 Potom reče Zeveju i Salmanu: Kakvi behu ljudi koje pobiste na Tavoru? A oni rekoše: Takvi kao ti; svaki beše na očima kao carski sin.
18 Then he said to Zebah and Zalmunna, “What kind of men were they whom you killed at Tabor?” They answered, “They were like you. They all resembled the children of a king.”
19 A on reče: To behu moja braća, sinovi moje matere. Tako Gospod bio živ! Da ste ih ostavili u životu, ne bih vas pogubio.
19 He said, “They were my brothers, the sons of my mother. As Yahweh lives, if you had saved them alive, I would not kill you.”
20 Tada reče Jeteru prvencu svom: Ustani, pogubi ih. Ali dete ne izvuče mač svoj, jer se bojaše, jer beše još dete.
20 He said to Jether his firstborn, “Get up and kill them!” But the youth didn’t draw his sword; for he was afraid, because he was yet a youth.
21 Tada reče Zevej i Salman: Ustani ti, uloži na nas; jer kakav je čovek onakva mu je i snaga. I ustavši Gedeon pogubi Zaveja i Salmana, i uze mesečiće koji behu o vratovima kamila njihovih.
21 Then Zebah and Zalmunna said, “You rise and fall on us; for as the man is, so is his strength.” Gideon arose, and killed Zebah and Zalmunna, and took the crescents that were on their camels’ necks.
22 Potom rekoše Izrailjci Gedeonu: Budi nam gospodar ti i sin tvoj i sin sina tvog, jer si nas izbavio iz ruke madijanske.
22 Then the men of Israel said to Gideon, “Rule over us, both you, your son, and your son’s son also; for you have saved us out of the hand of Midian.”
23 A Gedeon im reče: Neću vam ja biti gospodar, niti će vam sin moj biti gospodar; Gospod će vam biti Gospodar.
23 Gideon said to them, “I will not rule over you, neither shall my son rule over you. Yahweh shall rule over you.”
24 Još im reče Gedeon: Jedno ću iskati od vas: da mi date svaki grivnu od plena svog. A grivne imahu zlatne, jer behu Ismailjci.
24 Gideon said to them, “I do have a request: that you would each give me the earrings of his plunder.” (For they had golden earrings, because they were Ishmaelites.)
25 I odgovoriše: Daćemo drage volje. I razastrvši haljinu baciše na nju grivne, svaki od plena svog.
25 They answered, “We will willingly give them.” They spread a garment, and every man threw the earrings of his plunder into it.
26 I beše na meru zlatnih grivana što iziska hiljadu i sedam stotina sikala zlata, osim mesečića i lančića i haljina skerletnih, što nošahu carevi madijanski, i osim litarova, što behu oko vrata kamila njihovih.
26 The weight of the golden earrings that he requested was one thousand and seven hundred shekels of gold, in addition to the crescents, and the pendants, and the purple clothing that was on the kings of Midian, and in addition to the chains that were about their camels’ necks.
27 I Gedeon načini od toga oplećak, i ostavi ga u svom gradu Ofri; i onde sav Izrailj stade činiti preljubu za njim, i bi Gedeonu i domu njegovom zamka.
27 Gideon made an ephod out of it, and put it in Ophrah, his city. Then all Israel played the prostitute with it there; and it became a snare to Gideon and to his house.
28 Tako biše pokoreni Madijani pred sinovima Izrailjevim, i više ne digoše glave. I zemlja bi mirna četrdeset godina za veka Gedeonovog.
28 So Midian was subdued before the children of Israel, and they lifted up their heads no more. The land had rest forty years in the days of Gideon.
29 I otišavši Jeroval sin Joasov osta u svojoj kući.
29 Jerubbaal the son of Joash went and lived in his own house.
30 I imaše Gedeon sedamdeset sinova, koji iziđoše od bedara njegovih, jer imaše mnogo žena.
30 Gideon had seventy sons conceived from his body, for he had many wives.
31 I inoča njegova, koja beše u Sihemu, i ona mu rodi sina, i nade mu ime Avimeleh.
31 His concubine who was in Shechem also bore him a son, and he named him Abimelech.
32 Potom umre Gedeon sin Joasov u dobroj starosti, i bi pogreben u grobu Joasa oca svog Avijezerita u Ofri.
32 Gideon the son of Joash died in a good old age, and was buried in the tomb of Joash his father, in Ophrah of the Abiezrites.
33 I kad umre Gedeon, opet sinovi Izrailjevi činiše preljubu za Valima, i postaviše sebi Val-Verita za boga.
33 As soon as Gideon was dead, the children of Israel turned again and played the prostitute following the Baals, and made Baal Berith their god.
34 I ne sećaše se sinovi Izrailjevi Gospoda Boga svog, koji ih je izbavio iz ruku svih neprijatelja njihovih unaokolo.
34 The children of Israel didn’t remember Yahweh their God, who had delivered them out of the hand of all their enemies on every side;
35 I ne učiniše milosti domu Jerovala Gedeona prema svemu dobru što je on učinio Izrailju.
35 neither did they show kindness to the house of Jerubbaal, that is, Gideon, according to all the goodness which he had shown to Israel.
