< Judges 19 >

1 And it came to pass in those days, when there was no king in Israel, that a certain Levite, sojourning on the further side of mount Ephraim, took him a concubine out of Bethlehem-Judah.
И у то време, кад не беше цара у Израиљу, беше један Левит који живљаше као дошљак крај горе Јефремове, и узе иночу из Витлејема Јудиног.
2 And his concubine played the whore against him, and went away from him to her father's house to Bethlehem-Judah, and was there some time, — four months.
А иноча његова чињаше прељубу код њега, па отиде од њега кући оца свог у Витлејем Јудин, и оста онде четири месеца.
3 And her husband rose up and went after her, to speak kindly to her, to bring her again; and his servant was with him, and a couple of asses. And she brought him into her father's house; and when the father of the damsel saw him he rejoiced to meet him.
А муж њен уста и отиде за њом да јој лепо говори и да је доведе натраг, имајући са собом момка свог, и два магарца; и она га уведе у кућу оца свог, и кад га виде отац њен обрадова се доласку његовом.
4 And his father-in-law, the damsel's father, retained him, and he abode with him three days; and they ate and drank, and lodged there.
И устави га таст његов, отац младичин, и оста код њега три дана, и онде јеђаху и пијаху и ноћиваху.
5 And it came to pass on the fourth day, that they arose early in the morning, and he rose up to depart; and the damsel's father said to his son-in-law, Refresh thy heart with a morsel of bread, and afterwards ye may go your way.
А четврти дан кад усташе рано, уста и он да иде; али отац младичин рече зету свом: Поткрепи срце своје залогајем хлеба, па онда идите.
6 And they sat down, and ate and drank, both of them together. And the damsel's father said to the man, Be content, I pray thee, and pass the night, and let thy heart be glad.
И тако седоше и седоше обојица заједно и напише се; па рече отац младичин мужу: Хајде остани још ноћас, и буди весео.
7 And the man rose up to depart, but his father-in-law urged him, and he lodged there again.
Али човек уста да иде; али таст његов навали на њ, те опет ноћи онде.
8 And he arose early in the morning on the fifth day to depart; but the damsel's father said, Refresh thy heart, I pray thee. And they lingered until the afternoon, and they did eat both of them.
Потом урани петог дана да иде; и рече му отац младичин: Поткрепи срце своје. И једући заједно забавише се докле и дан наже.
9 And the man rose up to depart, he, and his concubine, and his servant; and his father-in-law, the damsel's father, said to him, Behold now, the day draws toward evening — I pray you stay all night; behold, the day is declining, lodge here, and let thy heart be merry; and to-morrow get you early on your way, that thou mayest go to thy tent.
Тада уста човек да иде, он и иноча му и момак; а таст његов, отац младичин, рече му: Ето, дан је већ нагао, вече је, преноћите овде; ето доцкан је, преноћи овде, и буди весео, па сутра ураните на пут, и иди к свом шатору.
10 But the man would not tarry the night; and he rose up and departed, and came opposite to Jebus, that is, Jerusalem; and there were with him two asses saddled, and his concubine was with him.
Али човек не хте ноћити; него уста и пође; и дође до Јевуса, а то је Јерусалим, и с њим два магарца натоварена и иноча његова.
11 They were near Jebus, and the day was far spent; and the servant said to his master, Come, I pray thee, and let us turn aside into this city of the Jebusites, and lodge in it.
А кад беху близу Јевуса, дан беше нагао врло, па рече слуга господару свом: Хајде брже да се свратимо у тај град Јевус, и ту да ноћимо.
12 But his master said to him, We will not turn aside into the city of a stranger, which is not of the children of Israel, but we will pass on to Gibeah.
А господар му рече: Нећемо свртати у туђ град, који није синова Израиљевих, него ћемо ићи до Гаваје.
13 And he said to his servant, Come and let us draw near to one of these places, and lodge in Gibeah, or in Ramah.
Још рече момку свом: Хајде брже да стигнемо у које од тих места и да ноћимо у Гаваји или у Рами.
14 And they passed on and went their way; and the sun went down upon them [when they were] by Gibeah, which belongs to Benjamin.
И минуше онуда и отидоше; и сунце их зађе близу Гаваје Венијаминове.
15 And they turned aside thither, to go in, to lodge in Gibeah. And he went in, and sat down in the open place of the city; and there was no one that received him into his house to pass the night.
И окретоше онамо да отиду и преноће у Гаваји, и кад уђе, седе на улици градској; и не би никога да их прими у кућу да преноће.
16 And behold, there came an old man from his work out of the field at even; and the man was of mount Ephraim, and he sojourned in Gibeah; but the men of the place were Benjaminites.
И гле, један старац враћаше се с посла свог из поља увече, а беше из горе Јефремове и живљаше као дошљак у Гаваји; а људи оног места беху синови Венијаминови.
17 And he lifted up his eyes, and saw the wayfaring man in the open place of the city; and the old man said, Whither goest thou? and whence comest thou?
И он подигавши очи своје угледа оног човека путника на улици градској; и рече му старац: Куда идеш? И откуда идеш?
18 And he said to him, We are travelling from Bethlehem-Judah towards the further side of mount Ephraim; from thence am I; and I went to Bethlehem-Judah, and I have to do with the house of Jehovah; and there is no man that receives me into his house.
А он му одговори: Идемо до Витлејема Јудиног до на крај горе Јефремове; оданде сам, па сам ишао до Витлејема Јудиног, а сада идем к дому Господњем и нема никога да ме прими у кућу.
19 And we have both straw and provender for our asses; and I have bread and wine also for me, and for thy handmaid, and for the young man with thy servants: there is no lack of anything.
А имамо и сламе и пиће за магарце своје, и хлеба и вина за се и за слушкињу твоју и за момка који је са слугом твојим имамо свега доста.
20 Then the old man said, Peace be with thee; only let all thy wants lie on me; but lodge not in the street.
А старац му рече: Буди миран; шта ти год недостаје, ја ћу се старати за то; само немој ноћити на улици.
21 And he brought him into his house, and gave the asses provender; and they washed their feet, and ate and drank.
И уведе га у своју кућу, и положи магарцима; потом опраше ноге, и једоше и пише.
22 They were making their hearts merry, when behold, the men of the city, sons of Belial, surrounded the house, beating at the door; and they spoke to the master of the house, the old man, saying, Bring forth the man that came into thy house, that we may know him.
А кад се развеселише, гле, људи оног града, безаконици, опколише кућу, и стадоше лупати у врата, и рекоше старцу, господару од куће, говорећи: Изведи тог човека што је ушао у твоју кућу, да га познамо.
23 And the man, the master of the house, went out to them, and said to them, No, my brethren, I pray you, do not wickedly; seeing that this man is come into my house, do not this villany.
И изашав к њима онај човек, господар од куће, рече им: Не, браћо, не чините зло; кад је човек ушао у моју кућу, не чините то безумље.
24 Behold, my daughter, who is a virgin, and his concubine; let me bring them out, and humble ye them, and do to them as is good in your sight; but to this man do not so vile a thing.
Ево кћи моја девојка и иноча његова, њих ћу вам извести, па њих осрамотите и чините с њима шта вам је воља, само човеку овом не чините то безумље.
25 But the men would not hearken to him; and the man took his concubine, and brought her forth to them; and they knew her, and abused her all the night until the morning; and let her go when the morning-dawn arose.
Али га не хтеше послушати они људи; тада онај човек узе иночу своју и изведе је напоље к њима, и они је познаше, и злоставише је целу ноћ до зоре, и пустише је кад зора забеле.
26 And the woman came at the dawning of the day, and fell down at the entrance of the man's house where her lord was, till it was light.
И дошавши жена у зору паде код врата од куће оног човека где беше господар њен, и лежа докле се не расвану.
27 And her lord rose up in the morning, and opened the door of the house, and went out to go his way, and behold, there lay the woman his concubine at the entrance of the house, and her hands were upon the threshold.
А господар њен уста ујутру, и кад отвори врата и изађе да иде својим путем, а то жена иноча његова лежаше на вратима кућним, и руке јој на прагу.
28 And he said to her, Up, and let us go; but no one answered. And he took her upon the ass; and the man rose up, and went to his place.
И рече јој: Устани да идемо. Али не би одговора; тада је метну на магарца, и уставши човек пође у место своје,
29 And when he was come into his house, he took the knife, and laid hold on his concubine, and divided her, according to her bones, into twelve pieces, and sent her into all the borders of Israel.
И дошав кући својој узе мач, и узе иночу своју и исече је с костима на дванаест комада и разасла у све крајеве Израиљеве.
30 And it came to pass that every one that saw it said, There was no such deed done nor seen from the day that the children of Israel came out of Egypt to this day. Think it over, advise, and speak.
И ко год виде говораше: Није се учинило нити се видело такво шта откад изиђоше синови Израиљеви из Мисира до данас. Промислите о том и већајте и говорите.
