Judges 6
1 And the children of Israel did evil in the sight of the LORD: and the LORD delivered them into the hand of Midian seven years.
A sinovi Izrailjevi èiniše što je zlo pred Gospodom, i Gospod ih dade u ruke Madijanima za sedam godina.
2 And the hand of Midian prevailed against Israel: [and] because of the Midianites the children of Israel made them the dens which [are] in the mountains, and caves, and strong holds.
I osili ruka Madijanska nad Izrailjem, te od straha Madijanskoga naèiniše sebi sinovi Izrailjevi jame koje su po gorama, i peæine i ograde.
3 And [so] it was, when Israel had sown, that the Midianites came up, and the Amalekites, and the children of the east, even they came up against them;
I kad bi Izrailjci posijali, dolažahu Madijani i Amalici i istoèni narod, dolažahu na njih.
4 And they encamped against them, and destroyed the increase of the earth, till thou comest to Gaza; and left no sustenance for Israel, neither sheep, nor ox, nor ass.
I stavši u oko protiv njih, potirahu rod zemaljski dori do Gaze, i ne ostavljahu hrane u Izrailju, ni ovce ni vola ni magarca.
5 For they came up with their cattle, and their tents, and they came as grasshoppers for multitude; [for] both they and their camels were without number: and they entered into the land to destroy it.
Jer se podizahu sa stadima svojim i sa šatorima svojim, i dolažahu kao skakavci, tako mnogo, i ne bješe broja njima ni kamilama njihovijem, i dolazeæi u zemlju pustošahu je.
6 And Israel was greatly impoverished because of the Midianites; and the children of Israel cried to the LORD.
Tada osiromaši Izrailj veoma od Madijana, i povikaše ka Gospodu sinovi Izrailjevi.
7 And it came to pass, when the children of Israel cried to the LORD because of the Midianites,
A kad povikaše sinovi Izrailjevi ka Gospodu od Madijana,
8 That the LORD sent a prophet to the children of Israel, who said to them, Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, I brought you up from Egypt, and brought you forth from the house of bondage;
Gospod posla proroka k sinovima Izrailjevijem, a on im reèe: ovako veli Gospod Bog Izrailjev: ja sam vas izveo iz Misira, i izveo sam vas iz doma ropskoga,
9 And I delivered you from the hand of the Egyptians, and from the hand of all that oppressed you, and drove them out from before you, and gave you their land;
I izbavio sam vas iz ruke Misirske i iz ruke svijeh onijeh koji vas muèahu; i odagnao sam ih ispred vas, i dao sam vama zemlju njihovu.
10 And I said to you, I [am] the LORD your God; fear not the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but ye have not obeyed my voice.
Pak vam rekoh: ja sam Gospod Bog vaš, na bojte se bogova Amoreja u kojih zemlji živite. Ali ne poslušaste glasa mojega.
11 And there came an angel of the LORD, and sat under an oak which [was] in Ophrah, that [pertained] to Joash the Abi-ezrite: and his son Gideon thrashed wheat by the wine-press, to hide [it] from the Midianites.
Potom doðe anðeo Gospodnji i sjede pod hrastom u Ofri koji bijaše Joasa Avijezerita; a sin njegov Gedeon vrsijaše pšenicu na gumnu, da bi pobjegao s njom od Madijana.
12 And the angel of the LORD appeared to him, and said to him, The LORD [is] with thee, thou mighty man of valor.
I javi mu se anðeo Gospodnji, i reèe mu: Gospod je s tobom, hrabri junaèe!
13 And Gideon said to him, O my LORD, if the LORD is with us, why then hath all this befallen us? and where [are] all his miracles which our fathers told us of, saying, Did not the LORD bring us up from Egypt? but now the LORD hath forsaken us, and delivered us into the hands of the Midianites.
A Gedeon mu reèe: o gospodaru moj! kad je Gospod s nama, zašto nas snaðe sve ovo? i gdje su sva èudesa njegova, koja nam pripovijedaše oci naši govoreæi: nije li nas Gospod izveo iz Misira? a sada nas je ostavio Gospod i predao u ruke Madijanima.
14 And the LORD looked upon him, and said, Go in this thy might, and thou shalt save Israel from the hand of the Midianites: have not I sent thee?
A Gospod ga pogleda i reèe mu: idi u toj sili svojoj, i izbaviæeš Izrailja iz ruku Madijanskih. Ne poslah li te?
15 And he said to him, O my LORD, by what means shall I save Israel? behold, my family [is] poor in Manasseh, and I [am] the least in my father's house.
A on mu reèe: o Gospode, èim æu izbaviti Izrailja? eto, rod je moj najsiromašniji u plemenu Manasijinu, a ja sam najmanji u domu oca svojega.
16 And the LORD said to him, Surely I will be with thee, and thou shalt smite the Midianites as one man.
Tada mu reèe Gospod: ja æu biti s tobom, te æeš pobiti Madijance kao jednoga.
17 And he said to him, If now I have found grace in thy sight, then show me a sign that thou talkest with me.
A Gedeon mu reèe: ako sam našao milost pred tobom, daj mi znak da ti govoriš sa mnom.
18 Depart not hence, I pray thee, until I come to thee, and bring forth my present, and set [it] before thee. And he said, I will tarry until thou comest again.
Nemoj otiæi odavde dokle se ja ne vratim k tebi i donesem dar svoj i stavim preda te. A on reèe: èekaæu dokle se vratiš.
19 And Gideon went in, and made ready a kid, and unleavened cakes of an ephah of flour: the flesh he put in a basket, and he put the broth in a pot, and brought [it] out to him under the oak, and presented [it].
Tada otide Gedeon, i zgotovi jare i od efe brašna hljebove prijesne, i metnu meso u kotaricu a juhu u lonac, i donese mu pod hrast, i postavi.
20 And the angel of God said to him, Take the flesh and the unleavened cakes, and lay [them] upon this rock, and pour out the broth. And he did so.
A anðeo Božji reèe mu: uzmi to meso i te hljebove prijesne, i metni na onu stijenu, a juhu prolij. I on uèini tako.
21 Then the angel of the LORD put forth the end of the staff that [was] in his hand, and touched the flesh and the unleavened cakes; and there rose fire out of the rock, and consumed the flesh and the unleavened cakes. Then the angel of the LORD departed from his sight.
Tada anðeo Gospodnji pruži kraj od štapa koji mu bješe u ruci i dotaèe se mesa i hljebova prijesnijeh; i podiže se oganj sa stijene i spali meso i hljebove prijesne. I anðeo Gospodnji otide ispred oèiju njegovih.
22 And when Gideon perceived that he was [an] angel of the LORD, Gideon said, Alas, O LORD God! for because I have seen an angel of the LORD face to face.
A Gedeon vidjeæi da bješe anðeo Gospodnji, reèe: ah Gospode Bože! zato li vidjeh anðela Gospodnjega licem k licu?
23 And the LORD said to him, Peace [be] to thee; fear not: thou shalt not die.
A Gospod mu reèe: budi miran, ne boj se, neæeš umrijeti.
24 Then Gideon built an altar there to the LORD, and called it Jehovah-shalom: to this day it [is] yet in Ophrah of the Abi-ezrites.
I Gedeon naèini ondje oltar Gospodu, i nazva ga mir Gospodnji. Stoji i danas u Ofri Avijezeritskoj.
25 And it came to pass the same night, that the LORD said to him, Take thy father's young bullock, even the second bullock of seven years old, and throw down the altar of Baal that thy father hath, and cut down the grove that [is] by it:
I istu noæ reèe mu Gospod: uzmi junca, koji je oca tvojega, junca drugoga od sedam godina; i raskopaj oltar Valov koji ima otac tvoj, i isijeci lug koji je kod njega.
26 And build an altar to the LORD thy God upon the top of this rock, in the ordered place, and take the second bullock, and offer a burnt-sacrifice with the wood of the grove which thou shalt cut down.
I naèini oltar Gospodu Bogu svojemu navrh ove stijene, na zgodnu mjestu; pa onda uzmi drugoga junca, i prinesi žrtvu paljenicu na drvima onoga luga koji isijeèeš.
27 Then Gideon took ten men of his servants, and did as the LORD had said to him: and [so] it was, because he feared his father's household, and the men of the city, that he could not do [it] by day, that he did [it] by night.
Tada uze Gedeon deset ljudi izmeðu sluga svojih, i uèini kako mu zapovjedi Gospod; ali se bojaše doma oca svojega i mještana, te ne uèini danju nego uèini noæu.
28 And when the men of the city arose early in the morning, behold, the altar of Baal was cast down, and the grove was cut down that [was] by it, and the second bullock was offered upon the altar [that was] built.
A kad ujutru ustaše mještani, a to raskopan oltar Valov i lug kod njega isjeèen; a junac drugi prinesen na žrtvu paljenicu na oltaru naèinjenom.
29 And they said one to another, Who hath done this thing? And when they inquired and asked, they said, Gideon the son of Joash hath done this thing.
I rekoše jedan drugomu: ko to uèini? I traživši i raspitavši rekoše: Gedeon sin Joasov uèini to.
30 Then the men of the city said to Joash, Bring out thy son, that he may die: because he hath cast down the altar of Baal, and because he hath cut down the grove that [was] by it.
Pa rekoše mještani Joasu: izvedi sina svojega da se pogubi, što raskopa oltar Valov i što isijeèe lug kod njega.
31 And Joash said to all that stood against him, Will ye plead for Baal? will ye save him? he that will plead for him, let him be put to death whilst [it is yet] morning: if he [is] a god, let him plead for himself, because [one] hath cast down his altar.
A Joas reèe svjema koji stajahu oko njega: vi li hoæete da branite Vala? vi li hoæete da ga izbavite? ko ga brani, poginuæe jutros. Ako je bog, neka sam raspravi s njim što mu je raskopao oltar.
32 Therefore on that day he called him Jerubbaal, saying, Let Baal plead against him, because he hath thrown down his altar.
I prozva ga onoga dana Jeroval govoreæi: neka raspravi s njim Val što mu raskopa oltar.
33 Then all the Midianites, and the Amalekites, and the children of the east were assembled, and went over, and encamped in the valley of Jezreel.
A svi Madijani i Amalici i istoèni narod bijahu se skupili i prešavši preko Jordana bijahu stali u oko u dolini Jezraelu,
34 But the Spirit of the LORD came upon Gideon, and he blew a trumpet; and Abiezer was called after him.
A duh Gospodnji naoruža Gedeona, i on zatrubi u trubu, i skupi oko sebe porodicu Avijezerovu.
35 And he sent messengers throughout all Manasseh; who also was called after him: and he sent messengers to Asher, and to Zebulun, and to Naphtali; and they came up to meet them.
I posla glasnike po svemu plemenu Manasijinu, i skupiše se oko njega; posla glasnike i u pleme Asirovo i Zavulonovo i Neftalimovo, te i oni izidoše pred njih.
36 And Gideon said to God, If thou wilt save Israel by my hand, as thou hast said,
Tada reèe Gedeon Bogu: ako æeš ti izbaviti mojom rukom Izrailja, kao što si rekao,
37 Behold, I will put a fleece of wool on the floor; [and] if the dew shall be on the fleece only, and [it] shall [be] dry upon all the earth [besides], then shall I know that thou wilt save Israel by my hand, as thou hast said.
Evo, ja æu metnuti runo na gumnu: ako rosa bude samo na runu a po svoj zemlji suho, onda æu znati da æeš mojom rukom izbaviti Izrailja, kao što si rekao.
38 And it was so: for he rose early on the morrow, and pressed the fleece, and wrung the dew out of the fleece, a bowl-full of water.
I bi tako; jer kad usta sjutradan, iscijedi runo, i isteèe rose iz runa puna zdjela.
39 And Gideon said to God, Let not thy anger be hot against me, and I will speak but this once: Let me make trial, I pray thee, but this once with the fleece; let it now be dry only upon the fleece, and upon all the ground let there be dew.
Opet reèe Gedeon Bogu: nemoj se gnjeviti na me, da progovorim još jednom; da obidem runom još jednom, neka bude samo runo suho, a po svoj zemlji neka bude rosa.
40 And God did so that night: for it was dry upon the fleece only, and there was dew on all the ground.
I Bog uèini tako onu noæ; i bi samo runo suho a po svoj zemlji bi rosa.
