Daničić–Karadžić Bible (1868), Cyrillic
1And Abimelech the son of Jerubbaal went to Shechem unto his mother’s brethren, and communed with them, and with all the family of the house of his mother’s father, saying,
1И Авимелех син Јеровалов отиде у Сихем к браћи матере своје и рече њима и свему роду отачкога дома матере своје говорећи:
2Speak, I pray you, in the ears of all the men of Shechem, Whether is better for you, either that all the sons of Jerubbaal, which are threescore and ten persons, reign over you, or that one reign over you? remember also that I am your bone and your flesh.
2Кажите свим Сихемљанима: Шта вам је боље, да су вам господари седамдесет људи, сви синови Јеровалови, или да вам је господар један човек? И опомињите се да сам ја кост ваша и тело ваше.
3And his mother’s brethren spake of him in the ears of all the men of Shechem all these words: and their hearts inclined to follow Abimelech; for they said, He is our brother.
3Тада рекоше браћа матере његове за њ свим Сихемљанима све те речи, и срце њихово приви се к Авимелеху, јер рекоше: Наш је брат.
4And they gave him threescore and ten pieces of silver out of the house of Baal-berith, wherewith Abimelech hired vain and light persons, which followed him.
4И дадоше му седамдесет сикала сребра из дома Вал-Веритовог, за које најми Авимелех људи празнова и скитница, те иђаху за њим.
5And he went unto his father’s house at Ophrah, and slew his brethren the sons of Jerubbaal, being threescore and ten persons, upon one stone: notwithstanding yet Jotham the youngest son of Jerubbaal was left; for he hid himself.
5И дође у кућу оца свог у Офру, и поби браћу своју, синове Јеровалове, седамдесет људи, на једном камену; али оста Јотам најмлађи син Јеровалов, јер се сакри.
6And all the men of Shechem gathered together, and all the house of Millo, and went, and made Abimelech king, by the plain of the pillar that was in Shechem.
6Тада се скупише сви Сихемљани и сав дом Милов, и отидоше и поставише Авимелеха царем код храста који стоји у Сихему.
7¶ And when they told it to Jotham, he went and stood in the top of mount Gerizim, and lifted up his voice, and cried, and said unto them, Hearken unto me, ye men of Shechem, that God may hearken unto you.
7А кад то јавише Јотаму, отиде и стаде наврх горе Гаризина, и подигавши глас свој повика и рече им: Чујте ме, Сихемљани, тако вас Бог чуо!
8The trees went forth on a time to anoint a king over them; and they said unto the olive tree, Reign thou over us.
8Ишла дрвета да помажу себи цара, па рекоше маслини: Буди нам цар.
9But the olive tree said unto them, Should I leave my fatness, wherewith by me they honour God and man, and go to be promoted over the trees?
9А маслина им рече: Зар ја да оставим претилину своју, којом се част чини Богу и људима, па да идем да тумарам за друга дрвета?
10And the trees said to the fig tree, Come thou, and reign over us.
10Потом рекоше дрвета смокви: Ходи ти, буди нам цар.
11But the fig tree said unto them, Should I forsake my sweetness, and my good fruit, and go to be promoted over the trees?
11А смоква им рече: Зар ја да оставим сласт своју и красни род свој, па да идем да тумарам за друга дрвета?
12Then said the trees unto the vine, Come thou, and reign over us.
12Тада рекоше дрвета виновој лози: Ходи ти, буди нам цар.
13And the vine said unto them, Should I leave my wine, which cheereth God and man, and go to be promoted over the trees?
13А лоза им рече: Зар ја да оставим вино своје, које весели Бога и људе, па да идем да тумарам за друга дрвета?
14Then said all the trees unto the bramble, Come thou, and reign over us.
14Тада сва дрвета рекоше трну: Ходи ти, буди нам цар.
15And the bramble said unto the trees, If in truth ye anoint me king over you, then come and put your trust in my shadow: and if not, let fire come out of the bramble, and devour the cedars of Lebanon.
15А трн одговори дрветима: Ако доиста хоћете мене да помажете себи за цара, ходите склоните се у хлад мој; ако ли нећете, нека изиђе огањ из трна и спали кедре ливанске.
16Now therefore, if ye have done truly and sincerely, in that ye have made Abimelech king, and if ye have dealt well with Jerubbaal and his house, and have done unto him according to the deserving of his hands;
16Тако сада, јесте ли право и поштено радили поставивши Авимелеха царем? И јесте ли добро учинили Јеровалу и дому његовом? И јесте ли му учинили како вас је задужио?
17(For my father fought for you, and adventured his life far, and delivered you out of the hand of Midian:
17Јер је отац мој војевао за вас и није марио за живот свој, и избавио вас је из руку мадијанских.
18And ye are risen up against my father’s house this day, and have slain his sons, threescore and ten persons, upon one stone, and have made Abimelech, the son of his maidservant, king over the men of Shechem, because he is your brother;)
18А ви данас устасте на дом оца мог, и побисте синове његове, седамдесет људи, на једном камену, и постависте царем Авимелеха, сина слушкиње његове, над Сихемљанима зато што је брат ваш.
19If ye then have dealt truly and sincerely with Jerubbaal and with his house this day, then rejoice ye in Abimelech, and let him also rejoice in you:
19Ако сте право и поштено радили данас према Јеровалу и његовом дому, веселите се с Авимелеха и он нека се весели с вас.
20But if not, let fire come out from Abimelech, and devour the men of Shechem, and the house of Millo; and let fire come out from the men of Shechem, and from the house of Millo, and devour Abimelech.
20Ако ли нисте, нека изиђе огањ од Авимелеха и спали Сихемљане и дом Милов, и нека изиђе огањ од Сихемљана и од дома Миловог и спали Авимелеха.
21And Jotham ran away, and fled, and went to Beer, and dwelt there, for fear of Abimelech his brother.
21Тада побеже Јотам, и побегав дође у Вир, и онде оста бојећи се Авимелеха брата свог.
22¶ When Abimelech had reigned three years over Israel,
22И влада Авимелех Израиљем три године.
23Then God sent an evil spirit between Abimelech and the men of Shechem; and the men of Shechem dealt treacherously with Abimelech:
23Али Бог пусти злу вољу међу Авимелеха и међу Сихемљане; и Сихемљани изневерише Авимелеха.
24That the cruelty done to the threescore and ten sons of Jerubbaal might come, and their blood be laid upon Abimelech their brother, which slew them; and upon the men of Shechem, which aided him in the killing of his brethren.
24Да би се осветила неправда учињена на седамдесет синова Јеровалових, и крв њихова да би дошла на Авимелеха брата њиховог, који их уби, и на Сихемљане, који укрепише руку његову да убије браћу своју.
25And the men of Shechem set liers in wait for him in the top of the mountains, and they robbed all that came along that way by them: and it was told Abimelech.
25И Сихемљани пометаше му заседе по врховима горским, па плењаху све који пролажаху мимо њих оним путем. И би јављено Авимелеху.
26And Gaal the son of Ebed came with his brethren, and went over to Shechem: and the men of Shechem put their confidence in him.
26Потом дође Гал син Еведов са својом браћом, и уђоше у Сихем, и Сихемљани се поуздаше у њ.
27And they went out into the fields, and gathered their vineyards, and trode the grapes , and made merry, and went into the house of their god, and did eat and drink, and cursed Abimelech.
27И изишавши у поље браше винограде своје и газише грожђе, и веселише се; и уђоше у кућу бога свог; и једоше и пише, и псоваше Авимелеха.
28And Gaal the son of Ebed said, Who is Abimelech, and who is Shechem, that we should serve him? is not he the son of Jerubbaal? and Zebul his officer? serve the men of Hamor the father of Shechem: for why should we serve him?
28И Гал син Еведов рече: Ко је Авимелех и шта је Сихем, да му служимо? Није ли син Јеровалов? А Зевул није ли његов пристав? Служите синовима Емора оца Сихемовог. А што бисмо служили томе?
29And would to God this people were under my hand! then would I remove Abimelech. And he said to Abimelech, Increase thine army, and come out.
29О кад би тај народ био под мојом руком, да сметнем Авимелеха! И рече Авимелеху: Прикупи војску своју, и изиђи.
30¶ And when Zebul the ruler of the city heard the words of Gaal the son of Ebed, his anger was kindled.
30А кад чу Зевул, управитељ градски, речи Гала сина Еведовог, разгневи се врло.
31And he sent messengers unto Abimelech privily, saying, Behold, Gaal the son of Ebed and his brethren be come to Shechem; and, behold, they fortify the city against thee.
31И посла тајно посланике к Авимелеху и поручи му: Ево Гал син Еведов и браћа му дођоше у Сихем, и ево побунише град на те.
32Now therefore up by night, thou and the people that is with thee, and lie in wait in the field:
32Него устани ноћу ти и народ што је с тобом, и заседи у пољу.
33And it shall be, that in the morning, as soon as the sun is up, thou shalt rise early, and set upon the city: and, behold, when he and the people that is with him come out against thee, then mayest thou do to them as thou shalt find occasion.
33А ујутро кад сунце огране, дигни се и удари на град; и ево он и народ који је с њим изићи ће преда те, па учини с њим шта ти може рука.
34¶ And Abimelech rose up, and all the people that were with him, by night, and they laid wait against Shechem in four companies.
34И Авимелех уста ноћу и сав народ што беше са њим; и заседоше Сихему у четири чете.
35And Gaal the son of Ebed went out, and stood in the entering of the gate of the city: and Abimelech rose up, and the people that were with him, from lying in wait.
35А Гал син Еведов изиђе и стаде пред вратима градским; а Авимелех и народ што беше са њим изиђе из заседе.
36And when Gaal saw the people, he said to Zebul, Behold, there come people down from the top of the mountains. And Zebul said unto him, Thou seest the shadow of the mountains as if they were men.
36А Гал видевши народ рече Зевулу: Ено народ силази сврх горе. А Зевул му одговори: Од сена горског чине ти се људи.
37And Gaal spake again and said, See there come people down by the middle of the land, and another company come along by the plain of Meonenim.
37Опет проговори Гал и рече: Ено народ силази с виса, и чета једна иде путем к шуми меоненимској.
38Then said Zebul unto him, Where is now thy mouth, wherewith thou saidst, Who is Abimelech, that we should serve him? is not this the people that thou hast despised? go out, I pray now, and fight with them.
38А Зевул му рече: Где су ти сада уста, којима си говорио: Ко је Авимелех да му служимо? Није ли то онај народ који си презирао? Изиђи сада, и биј се с њим.
39And Gaal went out before the men of Shechem, and fought with Abimelech.
39И изиђе Гал пред Сихемљанима, и поби се с Авимелехом.
40And Abimelech chased him, and he fled before him, and many were overthrown and wounded, even unto the entering of the gate.
40Али Авимелех га потера, и он побеже од њега; и падоше многи побијени до самих врата градских.
41And Abimelech dwelt at Arumah: and Zebul thrust out Gaal and his brethren, that they should not dwell in Shechem.
41И Авимелех оста у Аруми; а Зевул истера Гала и браћу његову, те не могаху седети у Сихему.
42And it came to pass on the morrow, that the people went out into the field; and they told Abimelech.
42А сутрадан изиђе народ у поље и би јављено Авимелеху.
43And he took the people, and divided them into three companies, and laid wait in the field, and looked, and, behold, the people were come forth out of the city; and he rose up against them, and smote them.
43А он узе народ свој и раздели га у три чете, и намести их у заседу у пољу; и кад виде где народ излази из града, скочи на њ их и поби их.
44And Abimelech, and the company that was with him, rushed forward, and stood in the entering of the gate of the city: and the two other companies ran upon all the people that were in the fields, and slew them.
44Јер Авимелех и чета која беше с њим ударише и стадоше код врата градских; а друге две чете ударише на све оне који беху у пољу, и побише их.
45And Abimelech fought against the city all that day; and he took the city, and slew the people that was therein, and beat down the city, and sowed it with salt.
45И Авимелех бијаше град цео онај дан, и узе га, и поби народ који беше у њему, и раскопа град, и посеја со по њему.
46¶ And when all the men of the tower of Shechem heard that , they entered into an hold of the house of the god Berith.
46А кад то чуше који беху у кули сихемској, уђоше у кулу куће бога Верита.
47And it was told Abimelech, that all the men of the tower of Shechem were gathered together.
47И би јављено Авимелеху да су се онде скупили сви који беху у кули сихемској.
48And Abimelech gat him up to mount Zalmon, he and all the people that were with him; and Abimelech took an axe in his hand, and cut down a bough from the trees, and took it, and laid it on his shoulder, and said unto the people that were with him, What ye have seen me do, make haste, and do as I have done .
48Тада Авимелех изиђе на гору Салмон, он и сав народ што беху са њим; и узевши Авимелех секиру у руку одсече грану од дрвета и метну је на раме, и рече народу који беше с њим: Шта видесте да сам ја учинио, брзо чините као ја.
49And all the people likewise cut down every man his bough, and followed Abimelech, and put them to the hold, and set the hold on fire upon them; so that all the men of the tower of Shechem died also, about a thousand men and women.
49И сваки из народа одсече себи грану, и пођоше за Авимелехом и пометаше гране око куле, и запалише њима град; и изгибоше сви који беху у кули сихемској, око хиљаду људи и жена.
50¶ Then went Abimelech to Thebez, and encamped against Thebez, and took it.
50Потом отиде Авимелех на Тевес, и стаде у логор код Тевеса, и узе га.
51But there was a strong tower within the city, and thither fled all the men and women, and all they of the city, and shut it to them, and gat them up to the top of the tower.
51А беше тврда кула усред града, и у њу побегоше сви људи и жене и сви грађани, и затворивши се попеше се на кров од куле.
52And Abimelech came unto the tower, and fought against it, and went hard unto the door of the tower to burn it with fire.
52А Авимелех дође до куле и удари на њу, и дође до врата од куле да је запали огњем.
53And a certain woman cast a piece of a millstone upon Abimelech’s head, and all to brake his skull.
53Али једна жена баци комад жрвња на главу Авимелеху и разби му главу.
54Then he called hastily unto the young man his armourbearer, and said unto him, Draw thy sword, and slay me, that men say not of me, A woman slew him. And his young man thrust him through, and he died.
54А он брже викну момка који му ношаше оружје, и рече му: Извади мач свој и уби ме, да не кажу за ме: Жена га је убила. И прободе га слуга његов, те умре.
55And when the men of Israel saw that Abimelech was dead, they departed every man unto his place.
55А кад видеше Израиљци где погибе Авимелех, отидоше сваки у своје место.
56¶ Thus God rendered the wickedness of Abimelech, which he did unto his father, in slaying his seventy brethren:
56Тако плати Бог Авимелеху за зло које је учинио оцу свом убивши седамдесет браће своје.
57And all the evil of the men of Shechem did God render upon their heads: and upon them came the curse of Jotham the son of Jerubbaal.
57И све зло људи Сихемљана поврати Бог на њихове главе, и стече им се клетва Јотама сина Јероваловог.
