< Књига Исуса Навина 7 >

1 Али се огрешише синови Израиљеви о проклетињу, јер Ахан син Хармије сина Завдије сина Зариног од племена Јудиног, узе од проклетих ствари; зато се разгневи Господ на синове Израиљеве.
But the people of Israel acted unfaithfully regarding the things that were set apart for destruction. Achan son of Karmi son of Zabdi son of Zerah, from the tribe of Judah, took some things that were set apart for destruction, and Yahweh's anger burned against the people of Israel.
2 А Исус посла људе из Јерихона у Гај, који беше близу Вет-Авена с истока Ветиљу, и рече им говорећи: Идите и уходите земљу. И људи одоше и уходише Гај.
Joshua sent men from Jericho to Ai, which was near Beth Aven, east of Bethel. He said to them, “Go up and spy out the land.” So the men went up and spied out Ai.
3 И вративши се к Исусу рекоше му: Нека не иде сав народ; до две хиљаде људи или до три хиљаде људи нека иду, и освојиће Гај; немој мучити сав народ, јер их је мало.
When they returned to Joshua, they said to him, “Do not send all the people up to Ai. Send only two or three thousand men to go up and attack Ai. Do not make all the people labor in battle, for they are few in number.”
4 И оде их онамо из народа око три хиљаде људи; али побегоше од Гајана.
So only about three thousand men went up from the army, but these ran away from the men of Ai.
5 И Гајани посекоше их до тридесет и шест људи; и гонише их од врата до Сиварима, и побише их на стрмени; и растопи се срце у народу, и поста као вода.
The men of Ai killed about thirty-six men as they pursued them from the city gate as far as to the stone quarries, and they killed them as they were going down a hill. The hearts of the people melted and became like water.
6 А Исус раздре хаљине своје и паде лицем на земљу пред ковчегом Господњим, и лежа до вечера, он и старешине Израиљеве, и посуше се прахом по глави.
Then Joshua tore his garments. He and the elders of Israel put dust on their heads and lay facedown on the ground in front of the ark of Yahweh, remaining there until evening.
7 И рече Исус: Јао! Господе Боже, зашто преведе овај народ преко Јордана да нас предаш у руке Аморејцима да нас побију? О, да хтесмо остати преко Јордана!
Then Joshua said, “Ah, Yahweh Lord, why have you brought this people across the Jordan at all? To give us into the hands of the Amorites to destroy us? If only we made a different decision and we had stayed on the other side of the Jordan!
8 Јао! Господе, шта да кажем, кад је Израиљ обратио плећа пред непријатељима својим?
Lord, what can I say, after Israel has turned their backs before their enemies?
9 Чуће Хананеји и сви становници те земље, и слећи ће се око нас, и истребиће име наше са земље; и шта ћеш учинити од великог имена свог?
For the Canaanites and all the inhabitants of the land will hear of it. They will surround us and make the people of the earth forget our name. What will you do for your great name?”
10 А Господ рече Исусу: Устани: што си пао на лице своје?
Yahweh said to Joshua, “Get up! Why are you lying there on your face?
11 Згрешио је Израиљ, и преступио завет мој који сам им заповедио: јер узеше од проклетих ствари, и украдоше, и затајише, и метнуше међу своје ствари.
Israel has sinned. They have broken my covenant which I commanded them. They have stolen some of the things that were set apart. They have stolen and then also hidden their sin by putting what they have taken among their own belongings.
12 Зато неће моћи синови Израиљеви стајати пред непријатељима својим; плећа ће обраћати пред непријатељима својим, јер су под проклетством; нећу више бити с вама, ако не истребите између себе проклетињу.
As a result, the people of Israel cannot stand before their enemies. They turned their backs from their enemies because they themselves have been set apart for destruction. I will not be with you any more unless you destroy the things that should have been destroyed, but are still among you.
13 Устани, освештај народ, и реци: Освештајте се за сутра; јер овако вели Господ Бог Израиљев: Проклетство је усред тебе, Израиљу; нећеш моћи стајати пред непријатељима својим докле не уклоните проклетство између себе.
Get up! Consecrate the people to me and say to them, 'Consecrate yourselves for tomorrow. For Yahweh, the God of Israel says, “There are things set apart to be destroyed that are still among you, Israel. You cannot stand against your enemies until you remove from among you all the things that were set apart to be destroyed.”
14 Приступићете ујутру по племенима својим; и које племе обличи Господ оно ће приступити по породицама својим; и коју породицу обличи Господ она ће приступити по домовима својим; и који дом обличи Господ, приступиће људи из њега један по један.
In the morning, you must present yourselves by your tribes. The tribe that Yahweh selects will come near by their clans. The clan that Yahweh selects must come near by each household. The household that Yahweh selects must come near one by one.
15 Па ко се нађе у проклетству, нека се спали огњем и он и све његово, јер преступи завет Господњи и учини безакоње у Израиљу.
It will happen that the one who is selected and who has those things that were set apart for destruction, he will be burned, he and all he has, because he has broken the covenant of Yahweh and because he has done a disgraceful thing in Israel.'”
16 И уставши Исус ујутру рано рече те приступи Израиљ по племенима својим; и обличи се племе Јудино.
So, Joshua got up early in the morning and brought Israel near, tribe by tribe, and the tribe of Judah was selected.
17 Потом рече те приступише породице Јудине; и обличи се породица Зарина; потом рече те приступи породица Зарина, домаћин један по један, и обличи се Завдија.
Joshua brought the clans of Judah near, and the clan of the Zerahites was selected. He brought near the clan of the Zerahites person by person, and Zabdi was selected.
18 И рече, те приступи његов дом, људи један по један, и обличи се Ахан син Хармије сина Завдије сина Зариног од племена Јудиног.
He brought Zabdi's household near, person by person, and Achan son of Karmi, son of Zabdi, son of Zerah, from the tribe of Judah, was selected.
19 И рече Исус Ахану: Сине, хајде дај хвалу Господу Богу Израиљевом, и признај пред Њим, и кажи ми шта си учинио, немој тајити од мене.
Then Joshua said to Achan, “My son, tell the truth before Yahweh, the God of Israel, and give your confession to him. Please tell me what you have done. Do not hide it from me.”
20 А Ахан одговори Исусу и рече: Истина је, ја згреших Господу Богу Израиљевом, и учиних тако и тако:
Achan answered Joshua, “Truly, I have sinned against Yahweh, the God of Israel. This is what I did:
21 Видех у плену један леп плашт вавилонски, и двеста сикала сребра, и једну шипку злата од педесет сикала, па се полакомих и узех; и ено је закопано у земљу усред мог шатора, и сребро одоздо.
When I saw among the plunder a beautiful coat from Babylon, two hundred shekels of silver, and a bar of gold weighing fifty shekels, I desired them and took them. They are hidden in the ground in the middle of my tent, and the silver is under it.”
22 Тада Исус посла посланике, који отрчаше у шатор, и гле, беше закопано у шатору његовом, и одоздо сребро.
Joshua sent messengers, who ran to the tent and there were the things. When they looked, they found them hidden in his own tent, and the silver under them.
23 И узеше из шатора и донеше к Исусу и свим синовима Израиљевим, и метнуше пред Господа.
They took the items from the middle of the tent and brought them to Joshua and to all the people of Israel. They poured them out before Yahweh.
24 Тада Исус и сав Израиљ узеше Ахана сина Зариног, и сребро и плашт и шипку злата, и синове његове и кћери његове, и волове његове и магарце његове, и овце његове, и шатор и све што беше његово, и изведоше у долину Ахор.
Then Joshua, and all Israel with him, took Achan son of Zerah, and the silver, the coat, the bar of gold, his sons and daughters, his oxen, his donkeys, his sheep, his tent, and all that he had, and they brought them up to the Valley of Achor.
25 И рече Исус: Што си нас смео? Господ да те смете данас! И засу га камењем сав Израиљ, и спалише све огњем засувши камењем.
Then Joshua said, “Why have you troubled us? Yahweh will trouble you today.” All Israel stoned him with stones. Then they stoned the rest with stones and burned them with fire.
26 По том набацаше на њ велику гомилу камења, која стоји и данас. И Господ се поврати од жестине гнева свог. Отуда се прозва оно место долина Ахор до данас.
They set up over him a great heap of stones that is here until this day. Yahweh turned away his burning anger. Therefore the name of the place is the Valley of Achor until this present day.
