Judges 1
1 After Joshua died, the Israeli people asked Yahweh, “Which [of our tribes] should attack the Canaan people-group first?”
А по смрти Исусовој упиташе синови Израиљеви Господа говорећи: Ко ће између нас ићи први на Хананеје да се бије с њима?
2 Yahweh replied, “I will enable the tribe of Judah to defeat [IDM] the Canaan people-group.”
И Господ рече: Јуда нека иде; ето дао сам му земљу у руке.
3 The men of Judah went to their fellow Israelis, [the men] from the tribe of Simeon, and said to them, “Come and help us to fight the Canaan people-group [in order that we can take from them] the land [that Yahweh] allotted to us. If you do that, we will go with you [and help you] conquer the people in the land [that Yahweh promised to give to] you.” So the men from the tribe of Simeon went with the men of the tribe of Judah.
А Јуда рече Симеуну брату свом: Хајде са мном на мој део да се бијемо с Хананејима; пак ћу и ја ићи с тобом на твој део. И пође Симеун с њим.
4 When the men of those two tribes attacked, Yahweh enabled them to defeat 10,000 men of the Canaan people-group and the Periz people-group [DOU] at Bezek [city].
И изиђе Јуда; и даде им Господ Хананеје и Ферезеје у руке, и побише их у Везеку десет хиљада људи.
5 During the battle they found Adoni-Bezek, the leader of the city,
Јер нађоше Адони-Везека у Везеку, и ударише на њ, и побише Хананеје и Ферезеје.
6 but he [tried to] run away. The Israelis pursued him and caught him. Then they cut off his thumbs and his big toes.
И побеже Адони-Везек, а они га потераше и ухвативши га одсекоше му палце у руку и у ногу.
7 Adoni-Bezek said, “[My army captured] 70 kings. We cut off their thumbs and big toes. After that, [we forced] those kings to eat scraps that fell from our table. Now God has (paid me back for/done to me like) [what we did to them].” Then the men of Judah took Adoni-Bezek to Jerusalem, and he died there.
Тада рече Адони-Везек: Седамдесет царева одсечених палаца у руку и у ногу купише шта беше под мојим столом; како сам чинио, тако ми плати Бог. И одведоше га у Јерусалим, и онде умре.
8 The army of Judah fought against the men of Jerusalem, and they captured the city. With their swords they killed [the people who lived there] and they burned [the houses in] the city.
Јер синови Јудини ударише на Јерусалим и узеше га, и исекоше грађане оштрим мачем, а град сажегоше огњем.
9 Later, the men of Judah went down to fight the Canaan people-group who lived in the hilly area, in the desert to the south, and in the foothills [to the west].
Потом изиђоше синови Јудини да војују на Хананеје, који живљаху у гори и на југу и у равни.
10 The men of Judah also went to fight against the Canaan people-group who lived in Hebron [city], which at that time was named Kiriath-Arba. They defeated [the armies of kings] Sheshai, Ahiman, and Talmai.
И Јуда изиђе на Хананеје који живљаху у Хеврону, а Хеврону беше пре име Киријат-Арва; и побише Сесаја и Ахимана и Талмаја.
11 Then they left that area and went to fight against the people living in Debir [city], which was previously named Kiriath-Sepher.
А одатле отидоше на Давиране, а Давиру пре беше име Киријат-Сефер.
12 [Before they attacked the city], Caleb said to them, “If one of you attacks and captures Kiriath-Sepher, I will allow him to marry my daughter.”
И рече Халев: Ко савлада Киријат-Сефер и узме га, даћу му Ахсу кћер своју за жену.
13 Othniel, who was the son of Caleb’s younger brother Kenaz, captured the city. So Caleb gave his daughter Acsah to him, to become his wife.
И узе га Готонило, син Кенезов, млађи брат Халевов; и даде му Ахсу кћер своју за жену.
14 When Acsah married Othniel, she told him to ask her father to give him a field. [But she decided to ask him herself. She rode to Caleb’s house on her donkey], and when she got off the donkey, Caleb [could see that something was troubling her. So he] asked her, “What do you want?”
И кад полажаше, наговараше је да иште у оца њеног поље: Па скочи с магарца. А Халев јој рече: Шта ти је?
15 She replied, “I want you to do a favor for me. You have given me some land in the southern desert, [but it is very dry there]. So please also give me some [land that has] springs of water.” So Caleb gave her some land on higher ground that had a spring, and some land on lower ground that also had a spring.
А она му рече: Дај ми дар; кад си ми дао суву земљу, дај ми и изворе водене. И даде јој Халев изворе горње и изворе доње.
16 The people of the Ken people-group who were descendants of Moses’ father-in-law left Jericho, which was called ‘The City of Palm Trees’. They went with some of the men of Judah to live with them in the southern desert area, near Arad [city].
А и синови Кенеја таста Мојсијевог изиђоше из града палмовог са синовима Јудиним у пустињу Јудину, која је на југу од Арада. И дошавши живљаху с народом.
17 The men of Judah and their fellow Israelis from the tribe of Simeon defeated the people of the Canaan people-group who lived in Zephath [city]. They completely destroyed the city and gave it a new name, Hormah, [which means ‘complete destruction’].
Потом изиђе Јуда са Симеуном братом својим, и побише Хананеје који живљаху у Сефату, и раскопаше га, и прозва се град Орма.
18 The men of Judah also captured Gaza, Ashkelon, and Ekron [cities] and all the land that is near those cities.
И Газу узе Јуда с међама њеним, и Аскалон с међама његовим, и Акарон с међама његовим.
19 Yahweh helped the men of Judah to capture the hilly area, but they could not force the people who were living in the plains to leave, because [those people had better weapons—] had iron chariots.
Јер Господ беше с Јудом, те освоји гору; али не изагна оне који живљаху у долини, јер имаху гвоздена кола.
20 Hebron [city] was given to Caleb because Moses had promised him that he could have that city. And Caleb forced the three clans descended from Anak to leave that area.
И дадоше Халеву Хеврон, као што беше заповедио Мојсије, а он изагна оданде три сина Енакова.
21 But the people of the tribe of Benjamin could not force the people of the Jebus people-group to leave Jerusalem. So, since that time the people of the Jebus people-group have lived in Jerusalem with the people of the tribe of Benjamin.
А синови Венијаминови не изагнаше Јевусеја који живљаху у Јерусалиму; него Јевусеји осташе у Јерусалиму са синовима Венијаминовим до овог дана.
22 The men of the tribes of Ephraim and Manasseh went to fight against [the men of] Bethel [city], and Yahweh helped them.
Изиђоше и синови Јосифови на Ветиљ, и Господ беше с њима.
23 They sent some spies to [find out everything that they could find out about] Bethel, which was previously called Luz.
И уходише Ветиљ синови Јосифови, а име граду беше пре Луз.
24 The spies saw a man who was coming out of the city. They said to him, “If you show us a way to get into the city, we will be kind to you [and we will not kill you].”
И уходе видеше човека који иђаше из града и рекоше му: Хајде покажи нам куда ћемо ући у град, па ћемо ти учинити милост.
25 So the man showed them a way to enter the city. The men of the tribes of Ephraim and Manasseh entered the city and killed all the people with their swords, but they did not kill the man [who showed them how to get into the city], and they did not kill his family.
А он им показа куда ће ући у град: и исекоше у граду све оштрим мачем, а оног човека пустише са свом породицом његовом.
26 That man went to the area where the descendants of Heth lived, and built a city. He named the city Luz, and that is still the name of that city.
И отиде онај човек у земљу хетејску, и онде сазида град, и прозва га Луз; то му је име до данас.
27 There were people of the Canaan people-group who lived in Beth-Shan, Taanach, Dor, Ibleam, and Megiddo [cities] and in the surrounding villages. [The men of] the tribe of Manasseh did not force those people to leave those towns, because the people of the Canaan people-group were determined to stay there.
А Манасија не изагна становнике из Вет-Сана и села његових, ни из Танаха и села његових, ни становнике из Дора и села његових, ни становнике из Ивлеама и села његових, ни становнике из Мегида и села његових; и Хананеји стадоше живети у тој земљи.
28 Later, the Israelis became (stronger/more numerous), and they forced the people of the Canaan people-group to work for them [as their slaves], but they did not force all the people of the Canaan people-group to leave their land.
А кад ојача Израиљ, удари на Хананеје данак, али их не изагна.
29 [The men of] the tribe of Ephraim did not force the people of the Canaan people-group to leave Gezer [city]. So the people of the Canaan people-group continued to live with the people of the tribe of Ephraim.
Ни Јефрем не изагна Хананеје који живљаху у Гезеру; него осташе Хананеји с њим у Гезеру.
30 [The men of] the tribe of Zebulun did nor compel the people of the Canaan people-group who were living in Kitron and Nahalol [cities] to leave. They stayed there and lived among the people of the tribe of Zebulun, but the people of Zebulun forced them to work for them as their slaves.
Завулон не изагна становнике из Китрона, ни становнике из Налола; него осташе Хананеји с њим, и плаћаху данак.
31 [The men of] the tribe of Asher did not force the people of the Canaan people-group who lived in Acco, Sidon, Ahlab, Aczib, Helbah, Aphek and Rehob [cities] to leave.
Асир не изагна становнике из Акона, ни становнике из Сидона ни из Алава, ни из Ахазива, ни из Хелве, ни из Афика, ни из Реова;
32 So the people of the tribe of Asher lived among them.
Него Асир живљаше међу Хананејима, становницима оне земље, јер их не изагна.
33 [The men of] the tribe of Naphtali did not compel the people who lived in Beth-Shemesh and Beth-Anath [cities] to leave, so the people in those two cities continued to live there, but the people of the Canaan people-group were forced to work as the slaves of the people of the tribe of Naphtali.
Нефталим не изагна становнике из Вет-Семеса, ни становнике из Вет-Аната; него живљаше међу Хананејима становницима оне земље; и становници у Вет-Семесу и у Вет-Анату плаћаху им данак.
34 The people of the Amor people-group forced the people of the tribe of Dan to live in the hills. They did not allow them to come down [and live] on the plain.
А Амореји притешњаваху синове Данове у гори, и не даваху им силазити у долину.
35 The people of the Amor people-group were determined to stay in Heres Mountain and in Aijalon and Shaalbim [cities]. But when the Israelis became (stronger/more numerous), they forced the people of the Amor people-group to work as their slaves.
И Амореји стадоше живети у гори Ересу, у Ајалону и у Салвиму; а кад осили рука дома Јосифовог, плаћаше данак.
36 The land where the Amor people-group lived extended from Scorpion Pass [toward the west] beyond Sela [town], up into the hilly area.
А међа Аморејима беше од горе акравимске, од стене па навише.
