< Judges 8 >

1 And the men of Effraym seiden to hym, What is this thing, which thou woldist do, that thou clepidist not vs, whanne thou yedist to batel ayens Madian? And thei chidden strongli, and almest diden violence.
Možje iz Efrájima so mu rekli: »Zakaj si nam tako služil, da nas nisi poklical, ko si odhajal, da bi se bojeval z Midjánci?« In ostro so se pričkali z njim.
2 To whiche he answeride, `What sotheli siche thing myyte Y do, what maner thing ye diden? Whethir a reisyn of Effraym is not betere than the vindagis of Abiezer?
Rekel jim je: »Kaj sem torej storil v primerjavi z vami? Mar ni Efrájimovo paberkovanje boljše kakor Abiézerjeva trgatev?
3 And the Lord bitook in to youre hondis the princes of Madian, Oreb and Zeb. What sich thing myyte Y do, what maner thing ye diden? And whanne he hadde spoke this thing, the spirit of hem restide, bi which thei bolneden ayens hym.
Bog je v vaše roke izročil midjánska princa, Oréba in Zeéba. Kaj sem bil jaz zmožen storiti v primerjavi z vami?« Potem ko jim je to rekel, se je njihova jeza zoper njega zmanjšala.
4 And whanne Gedeon hadde come to Jordan, he passide it with thre hundrid men, that weren with hym; and for weerynesse thei myyten not pursue hem that fledden.
Gideón je prišel do Jordana ter ga prečkal, on in tristo mož, ki so bili z njim, slabotni, vendar so jih zasledovali.
5 And he seide to the men of Socoth, Y biseche, yyue ye looues to the puple, which is with me; for thei failiden greetli, that we moun pursue Zebee and Salmana, kyngis of Madian.
Možem iz Sukóta je rekel: »Dajte, prosim vas, hlebe kruha ljudstvu, ki mi sledi, kajti oslabeli so in jaz zasledujem midjánska kralja Zebaha in Calmunája.«
6 The princes of Socoth answeriden in scorne, In hap the pawmes of the hondis of Zebee and of Salmana ben in thin hond, and therfor thou axist, that we yyue looues to thin oost.
Princi iz Sukóta so rekli: » Mar so roke Zebaha in Calmunája sedaj v tvoji roki, da bi tvoji vojski dali kruha?«
7 To whiche he seide, Therfor, whanne the Lord schal bitake Zebee and Salmana in to myn hondis, and whanne Y schal turne ayen ouercomere in pees, Y schal to-reende youre fleischis with the thornes and breris of deseert.
Gideón je rekel: »Torej ko Gospod Zebaha in Calmunája izroči v mojo roko, potem bom vaše meso raztrgal s trnjem iz divjine in z osatom.«
8 And he stiede fro thennus, and cam in to Phanuel; and he spak lijk thingis to men of that place, to whom also thei answeriden, as the men of Socoth hadden answerid.
Od tam je odšel gor do Penuéla in jim podobno govoril. Ljudje iz Penuéla so mu odgovorili podobno kot ljudje iz Sukóta.
9 And so he seide to hem, Whanne Y schal turne ayen ouercomere in pees, Y schal distrie this tour.
Govoril je tudi ljudem iz Penuéla, rekoč: »Ko ponovno pridem v miru, bom porušil ta stolp.«
10 Forsothe Zebee and Salmana restiden with al her oost; for fiftene thousynde men leften of alle the cumpenyes of the `puplis of the eest, whanne an hundrid and twenti thousynde of `fiyteris and of men drawynge out swerd weren slayn.
Torej Zebah in Calmunáj sta bila v Karkórju in njune vojske z njima, okoli petnajst tisoč mož, vsi, ki so preostali od vseh vojsk otrok vzhoda, kajti tam je padlo sto dvajset tisoč mož, ki so izdirali meč.
11 And Gedeon stiede bi the weye of hem that dwelliden in tabernaclis at the eest coost of Nobe and of Lethoa, and smoot the `tentis of enemyes, that weren sikur, and supposiden not ony thing of aduersite.
Gideón je odšel gor po poti tistih, ki so prebivali v šotorih vzhodno od Nobaha in Jogbóhe in udaril vojsko, kajti vojska je bila brezskrbna.
12 And Zebee and Salmana fledden, whiche Gedeon pursuede and took, whanne al `the oost of hem was disturblid.
Ko sta Zebah in Calmunáj pobegnila, ju je zasledoval in zajel dva midjánska kralja, Zebaha in Calmunája ter porazil vso vojsko.
13 And he turnede ayen fro batel bifor the `risyng of the sunne,
Joášev sin Gideón se je vrnil iz bitke, preden je vzšlo sonce.
14 and took a child of the men of Socoth; and he axide hym the names of the princes and eldere men of Socoth; and he descryuede seuene and seuenti men in noumbre.
Ujel je mladeniča izmed ljudi iz Sukóta in od njega poizvedel in ta mu je opisal prince iz Sukóta in njihove starešine, celó sedeminsedemdeset mož.
15 And he cam to Socoth, and seide to hem, Lo Zebee and Salmana! of whiche ye vpbreideden me, and seiden, In hap the hondis of Zebee and of Salmana ben in thin hondis, and therfor thou axist, that we yyue looues to men, that ben weeri and failiden.
Prišel je k možem iz Sukóta in rekel: »Glejte Zebaha in Calmunája, s katerima ste me ošteli, rekoč: ›Mar so roke Zebaha in Calmunája sedaj v tvoji roki, da naj bi dali kruha tvojim možem, ki so izmučeni.‹«
16 Therfor Gedeon took the eldere men of the citee, and thornes and breris of deseert, and he to-rente with tho, and al to-brak the men of Socoth; also he destriede the tour of Phanuel,
Zgrabil je mestne starešine in trnje iz divjine in osat ter z njimi učil može iz Sukóta.
17 whanne the dwelleris of the citee weren slayn.
Podrl je stolp v Penuélu in usmrtil može iz mesta.
18 And he seide to Zebee and Salmana, What maner men weren thei, whiche ye killiden in Thabor? Whiche answeriden, Thei weren lijk thee, and oon of hem was as the sone of a kyng.
Potem je Zebahu in Calmunáju rekel: »Kakšne vrste možje so bili tisti, ki sta jih usmrtila pri Taboru?« Odgovorila sta: »Takšni so bili, kot si ti. Vsakdo je bil podoben kraljevemu otroku.«
19 To whiche he seide, Thei weren my britheren, the sones of my modir; the Lord lyueth, if ye hadden saued hem, Y `nolde sle you.
Rekel je: » Bili so moji bratje, celó sinovi moje matere. Kakor živi Gospod, če bi jih rešila žive, vaju ne bi ubil.«
20 And he seide to Jepther, his firste gendrid sone, Rise thou, and sle hem. Which drow not swerd; for he dredde, for he was yit a child.
Svojemu prvorojencu Jeterju je rekel: »Vstani in ju ubij.« Toda mladostnik ni izvlekel svojega meča, kajti bal se je, ker je bil še mladostnik.
21 And Zebee and Salmana seiden, Ryse thou, and falle on vs; for thou art bi the age and strengthe of man. Gedeon roos, and killide Zebee and Salmana, and took the ournementis, and bellis, with whiche the neckis of kyngis camels ben wont to be maad fair.
Potem sta Zebah in Calmunáj rekla: »Vstani ti in padi na naju, kajti kakršen je mož, takšna je njegova moč.« Gideón je vstal in usmrtil Zebaha in Calmunája in odvzel ornamente, ki so bili na vratovih njunih kamel.
22 And alle the men of Israel seiden to Gedeon, Be thou lord of vs, thou, and thi sone, and the sone of thi sone; for thou deliueridist vs fro the hond of Madian.
Potem so možje iz Izraela rekli Gideónu: »Ti vladaj nad nami, oba, ti in tvoj sin in tudi sin tvojega sina, kajti osvobodil si nas iz roke Midjáncev.«
23 To whiche he seide, Y schal not be lord of you, nethir my sone schal be lord on you, but the Lord schal be lord.
Gideón jim je rekel: »Jaz ne bom vladal nad vami niti ne bo moj sin vladal nad vami. Gospod bo vladal nad vami.«
24 And he seide to hem, Y axe oon axyng of you, yyue ye to me the eere ryngis of youre prey; for Ismaelitis weren wont to haue goldun eere ryngis.
Gideón jim je rekel: »Od vas bi želel prošnjo, da bi mi dal vsak mož uhane od svojega plena.« (Kajti imeli so zlate uhane, ker so bili Izmaelci.)
25 Whiche answeriden, We schulen yyue moost gladli. And thei spredden forth a mentil on the erthe, and castiden forth therynne `eere ryngis of the prey;
Odgovorili so: »Voljno jih bomo dali.« Razširili so obleko in nanjo je vsak mož vrgel uhane od svojega plena.
26 and the weiyte of `eere ryngis axid was a thousynde and seuene hundrid siclis of gold, with out ournementis and brochis and cloth of purpur, whiche the kyngis of Madian weren wont to vse, and outakun goldun bies of camels.
Teža zlatih uhanov, ki jih je zahteval, je bila tisoč sedemsto šeklov zlata, poleg ornamentov in obeskov za ušesa in škrlatnega oblačila, ki je bil na midjánskih kraljih in poleg verižic, ki so bile okoli vratov njihovih kamel.
27 And Gedeon made therof ephot, that is, a preestis cloth, `and propir cloth of the hiyeste preest, and he puttide it in his citee Ephra; and al Israel diden fornycacioun, `that is ydolatrye, ther ynne; and it was maad to Gedeon and to al his hows in to fallyng.
Gideón je iz njih naredil efód in ga dal v svoje mesto, v Ofro. Ves Izrael se je odšel tja vlačugat za njim. Ta stvar je postala zanka Gideónu in njegovi hiši.
28 Forsothe Madian was maad low bifor the sones of Israel, and thei myyten no more reise nollis; but the lond restide fourti yeer, in whiche Gedeon was souereyn.
Tako je bil Midján podjarmljen pred Izraelovimi otroki, tako da niso več vzdignili svojih glav. In dežela je bila v Gideónovih dneh v spokojnosti štirideset let.
29 And so Jerobaal, sone of Joas, yede, and dwellide in his hows;
Joášev sin Jerubáal je odšel in prebival v svoji lastni hiši.
30 and he hadde seuenti sones, that yeden out of his thiy, for he hadde many wyues.
Gideón je imel sedemdeset sinov, rojenih od njegovega telesa, kajti imel je mnogo žena.
31 Forsothe a concubyn, `that is, secoundarie wijf, of hym, whom he hadde in Sichem, gendride to hym a sone, Abymelech bi name.
Njegova priležnica, ki je bila v Sihemu, mu je prav tako rodila sina, čigar ime je imenoval Abiméleh.
32 And Gedeon, sone of Joas, diede in good elde, and was biried in the sepulcre of Joas, his fadir, in Ephra, of the meynee of Ezri.
Joášev sin Gideón je umrl v dobri visoki starosti in bil pokopan v mavzoleju njegovega očeta Joáša v Ofri Abiézerjevcev.
33 Forsothe aftir that Gedeon was deed, the sones of Israel turneden awey `fro Goddis religioun, and diden fornycacioun, `that is, idolatrie, with Baalym; and thei smytiden boond of pees with Baal, that he schulde be to hem in to God,
Takoj, ko je bil Gideón mrtev, se je pripetilo, da so se Izraelovi otroci ponovno obrnili in se šli vlačugat za Báali in si naredili Baal-berita za svojega boga.
34 nether thei hadden mynde of her Lord God, that delyuerede hem fro the hond of alle her enemyes `bi cumpas;
Izraelovi otroci se niso spominjali Gospoda, svojega Boga, ki jih je osvobodil iz rok vseh njihovih sovražnikov na vsaki strani
35 nether thei diden merci with the hous of Gerobaal Gedeon, bi alle the goodis whiche he `hadde do to Israel.
niti niso izkazali prijaznosti Jerubáalovi hiši, namreč Gideónu, glede na vso dobroto, ki jo je izkazal Izraelu.
