¹Vtedy vyšli všetci synovia Izraelovi, a shromaždila sa celá obec ako jeden muž od Dána až po Béršebu i zem Gileáda k Hospodinovi do Micpy.

¹Then all the children of Israel went out, and the congregation was assembled as one man, from Dan even to Beer-sheba, with the land of Gilead, unto Jehovah at Mizpah.

²A postavili sa predáci všetkého ľudu, všetkých pokolení Izraelových, v shromaždení ľudu Božieho, ktorého bolo štyristo tisíc peších mužov, súcich tasiť mečom.

²And the chiefs of all the people, even of all the tribes of Israel, presented themselves in the assembly of the people of God, four hundred thousand footmen that drew sword.

³A synovia Benjaminovi počuli, že vyšli synovia Izraelovi hore do Micpy. A synovia Izraelovi riekli: Hovorte, jako sa stalo to hanebné zlo?

³(Now the children of Benjamin heard that the children of Israel were gone up to Mizpah.) And the children of Israel said, Tell us, how was this wickedness brought to pass?

⁴Na to odpovedal človek, Levita, muž tej zavraždenej ženy, a riekol: Do Gibee, ktorá patrí Benjaminovi, som prišiel ja i moja ženina prenocovať.

⁴And the Levite, the husband of the woman that was murdered, answered and said, I came into Gibeah that belongeth to Benjamin, I and my concubine, to lodge.

⁵A povstanúc na mňa mužovia Gibee obkľúčili ma v dome vnoci; mňa zamýšľali zabiť a moju ženinu ponížili a ztýrali tak, že zomrela.

⁵And the men of Gibeah rose against me, and beset the house round about me by night; me they thought to have slain, and my concubine they forced, and she is dead.

⁶Preto som vzal svoju ženinu, porezal som ju na kusy a rozposlal som ju po všetkých poliach dedičstva Izraelovho, pretože vykonali hanebnosť a bláznovstvo v Izraelovi.

⁶And I took my concubine, and cut her in pieces, and sent her throughout all the country of the inheritance of Israel; for they have committed lewdness and folly in Israel.

⁷Hľa, vy všetci ste synovia Izraelovi, vyslovte sa o tom a dajte tu radu.

⁷Behold, ye children of Israel, all of you, give here your advice and counsel.

⁸Tu povstal všetok ľud ako jeden muž a riekli: Nikto z nás nepojde do svojho stánu ani sa nikto z nás neuchýli do svojho domu.

⁸And all the people arose as one man, saying, We will not any of us go to his tent, neither will we any of us turn unto his house.

⁹Ale teraz toto je to, čo urobíme Gibei: losom proti nej.

⁹But now this is the thing which we will do to Gibeah: [we will go up] against it by lot;

¹⁰Vezmeme desiatich mužov zo sta zo všetkých pokolení Izraelových a sto z tisíca a tisíc z desať tisícov, aby vzali potravy pre ľudí, ktorí majú vykonať, keď prijdú do Gibee Benjaminovej, podľa všetkého toho bláznovstva, ktoré spáchali v Izraelovi.

¹⁰and we will take ten men of a hundred throughout all the tribes of Israel, and a hundred of a thousand, and a thousand out of ten thousand, to fetch victuals for the people, that they may do, when they come to Gibeah of Benjamin, according to all the folly that they have wrought in Israel.

¹¹A tak sa shromaždilo všetko mužstvo Izraelovo proti tomu mestu svorne jako jeden muž.

¹¹So all the men of Israel were gathered against the city, knit together as one man.

¹²A pokolenia Izraelove vyslaly mužov do všetkých pokolení Benjaminových s odkazom: Aký je to zlý skutok, ktorý sa stal medzi vami?

¹²And the tribes of Israel sent men through all the tribe of Benjamin, saying, What wickedness is this that is come to pass among you?

¹³Preto teraz vydajte mužov, synov beliála, ktorí sú v Gibei, aby sme ich zabili a odpraceme zlé z Izraela. Ale synovia Benjaminovi nechceli počuť hlas svojich bratov, synov Izraelových,

¹³Now therefore deliver up the men, the base fellows, that are in Gibeah, that we may put them to death, and put away evil from Israel. But Benjamin would not hearken to the voice of their brethren the children of Israel.

¹⁴lež synovia Benjaminovi sa shromaždili z miest do Gibee, aby vyšli do boja proti synom Izraelovým.

¹⁴And the children of Benjamin gathered themselves together out of the cities unto Gibeah, to go out to battle against the children of Israel.

¹⁵A toho dňa bolo načítaných synov Benjaminových, ktorí boli z ich miest, dvadsaťšesť tisíc mužov, spôsobných tasiť mečom, krome obyvateľov mesta Gibee, ktorých bolo načítaných sedemsto vybraných mužov.

¹⁵And the children of Benjamin were numbered on that day out of the cities twenty and six thousand men that drew sword, besides the inhabitants of Gibeah, who were numbered seven hundred chosen men.

¹⁶Zo všetkého toho ľudu bolo sedemsto vybraných mužov, neschopných používať svoju pravú ruku. Ale tí všetci hádzali kamene z praku navlas a nechybili.

¹⁶Among all this people there were seven hundred chosen men lefthanded; every one could sling stones at a hair-breadth, and not miss.

¹⁷A mužov Izraelových bolo načítaných krome z Benjamina: štyristo tisíc mužov, súcich tasiť mečom; to všetko boli bojovní mužovia.

¹⁷And the men of Israel, besides Benjamin, were numbered four hundred thousand men that drew sword: all these were men of war.

¹⁸A vstanúc odišli hore do Bét-ela a pýtali sa Boha a povedali synovia Izraelovi: Kto nám pojde najprv hore do boja so synmi Benjaminovými? A Hospodin riekol: Júda pojde najprv.

¹⁸And the children of Israel arose, and went up to Beth-el, and asked counsel of God; and they said, Who shall go up for us first to battle against the children of Benjamin? And Jehovah said, Judah [shall go up] first.

¹⁹Vtedy vstali synovia Izraelovi ráno a položili sa táborom proti Gibei.

¹⁹And the children of Israel rose up in the morning, and encamped against Gibeah.

²⁰A tak vyšli mužovia Izraelovi do boja proti Benjaminovi. A mužovia Izraelovi zriadili sa do boja s nimi pri Gibei.

²⁰And the men of Israel went out to battle against Benjamin; and the men of Israel set the battle in array against them at Gibeah.

²¹Ale synovia Benjaminovi vyjdúc z Gibee porazili toho dňa z Izraela dvadsaťdva tisíc mužov na zem.

²¹And the children of Benjamin came forth out of Gibeah, and destroyed down to the ground of the Israelites on that day twenty and two thousand men.

²²No, ľud sa vzmužil, mužovia Izraelovi, a znova sa zriadili do boja na mieste, na ktorom sa boli zriadili prvého dňa.

²²And the people, the men of Israel, encouraged themselves, and set the battle again in array in the place where they set themselves in array the first day.

²³Ale prv odišli synovia Izraelovi hore a plakali pred Hospodinom až do večera a pýtali sa Hospodina a povedali: Či sa máme ešte priblížiť do boja proti synom Benjaminovým, proti svojmu bratovi? A Hospodin riekol: Iďte hore proti nemu.

²³And the children of Israel went up and wept before Jehovah until even; and they asked of Jehovah, saying, Shall I again draw nigh to battle against the children of Benjamin my brother? And Jehovah said, Go up against him.

²⁴A tedy sa priblížili synovia Izraelovi proti synom Benjaminovým aj druhého dňa.

²⁴And the children of Israel came near against the children of Benjamin the second day.

²⁵Ale synovia Benjaminovi vyjdúc oproti nim z Gibee druhého dňa zase porazili zo synov Izraelových osemnásť tisíc mužov na zem. To všetko boli mužovia spôsobní tasiť mečom.

²⁵And Benjamin went forth against them out of Gibeah the second day, and destroyed down to the ground of the children of Israel again eighteen thousand men; all these drew the sword.

²⁶Vtedy odišli všetci synovia Izraelovi i všetok ľud a prišli do Bét-ela a plačúc sedeli tam pred Hospodinom a postili sa toho dňa až do večera a obetovali zápalné obeti a pokojné obeti pred Hospodinom.

²⁶Then all the children of Israel, and all the people, went up, and came unto Beth-el, and wept, and sat there before Jehovah, and fasted that day until even; and they offered burnt-offerings and peace-offerings before Jehovah.

²⁷A synovia Izraelovi sa pýtali Hospodina (a bola tam truhla smluvy Božej v tie dni,

²⁷And the children of Israel asked of Jehovah (for the ark of the covenant of God was there in those days,

²⁸a Pinchas, syn Eleazára, syna Áronovho, stál pred ňou v tie dni) a povedali: Či máme ešte vyjsť do boja proti synom Benjaminovým, proti svojmu bratovi, a či máme nechať? A Hospodin riekol: Iďte hore, lebo zajtra ho dám do vašej ruky.

²⁸and Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron, stood before it in those days), saying, Shall I yet again go out to battle against the children of Benjamin my brother, or shall I cease? And Jehovah said, Go up; for to-morrow I will deliver him into thy hand.

²⁹Vtedy rozostavil Izrael úkladníkov proti Gibei dookola.

²⁹And Israel set liers-in-wait against Gibeah round about.

³⁰A tedy vyšli synovia Izraelovi hore proti synom Benjaminovým tretieho dňa a zriadili sa proti Gibei jako oba razy predtým.

³⁰And the children of Israel went up against the children of Benjamin on the third day, and set themselves in array against Gibeah, as at other times.

³¹Keď potom vyšli synovia Benjaminovi oproti ľudu, boli odtrhnutí od mesta a začali biť z ľudu a zabíjať ako oba razy, na hradských, z ktorých jedna ide hore do Bét-ela a druhá do Gibee, na poli, a zabili okolo tridsiatich mužov z Izraela.

³¹And the children of Benjamin went out against the people, and were drawn away from the city; and they began to smite and kill of the people, as at other times, in the highways, of which one goeth up to Beth-el, and the other to Gibeah, in the field, about thirty men of Israel.

³²A synovia Benjaminovi povedali: Porazení sú pred nami jako prv. Ale synovia Izraelovi boli povedali: Utekajme a odtrhnime ich od mesta ku hradským.

³²And the children of Benjamin said, They are smitten down before us, as at the first. But the children of Israel said, Let us flee, and draw them away from the city unto the highways.

³³Tu vstali všetci mužovia Izraelovi zo svojho miesta a zriadili sa v Bál-támare. A úklad Izraelov sa vyrútil zo svojho stanoviska, s poľany Gibee.

³³And all the men of Israel rose up out of their place, and set themselves in array at Baal-tamar: and the liers-in-wait of Israel brake forth out of their place, even out of Maareh-geba.

³⁴A prišlo pred Gibeu desať tisíc vybraných mužov z celého Izraela. A boj bol zúrivý a ťažký. Ale oni nevedeli, že ide na nich zlé.

³⁴And there came over against Gibeah ten thousand chosen men out of all Israel, and the battle was sore; but they knew not that evil was close upon them.

³⁵A Hospodin porazil Benjamina pred Izraelom, a synovia Izraelovi zbili toho dňa z Benjamina dvadsaťpäť tisíc a sto mužov. To všetko boli mužovia súci tasiť mečom.

³⁵And Jehovah smote Benjamin before Israel; and the children of Israel destroyed of Benjamin that day twenty and five thousand and a hundred men: all these drew the sword.

³⁶Vtedy videli synovia Benjaminovi, že sú porazení. A mužovia Izraelovi dali Benjaminovi miesto, lebo sa nadejali na úklad, ktorý boli položili proti Gibei.

³⁶So the children of Benjamin saw that they were smitten; for the men of Israel gave place to Benjamin, because they trusted unto the liers-in-wait whom they had set against Gibeah.

³⁷A tí, ktorí úkladili, poponáhľali sa a vrhli sa na Gibeu, a úklad tiahol mestom a pobil celé mesto ostrím meča.

³⁷And the liers-in-wait hasted, and rushed upon Gibeah; and the liers-in-wait drew themselves along, and smote all the city with the edge of the sword.

³⁸A mužovia Izraelovi mali dohovorené znamenie s úkladom, totiž aby spôsobili to, že by vystupovalo veľké množstvo dymu z mesta.

³⁸Now the appointed sign between the men of Israel and the liers-in-wait was, that they should make a great cloud of smoke rise up out of the city.

³⁹A tedy mužovia Izraelovi sa obrátili v boji, a Benjamin bol začal biť a zabil okolo tridsiatich mužov z mužov Izraelových, lebo vraveli: Je isté že je porazený pred nami jako v prvej bitke.

³⁹And the men of Israel turned in the battle, and Benjamin began to smite and kill of the men of Israel about thirty persons; for they said, Surely they are smitten down before us, as in the first battle.

⁴⁰Ale z mesta začala vystupovať ťažká kúrňava, stĺp dymu. A keď sa obzrel Benjamin, videl, že hľa, celé mesto vystupovalo v dyme hore do neba.

⁴⁰But when the cloud began to arise up out of the city in a pillar of smoke, the Benjamites looked behind them; and, behold, the whole of the city went up [in smoke] to heaven.

⁴¹Vtedy sa obrátili mužovia Izraelovi, a mužovia Benjaminovi sa predesili, lebo videli, že prišlo na nich zlé.

⁴¹And the men of Israel turned, and the men of Benjamin were dismayed; for they saw that evil was come upon them.

⁴²A obrátiac sa utekali pred mužmi Izraelovými na cestu k púšti, ale boj ich stále doháňal, a tí, ktorí boli prišli z miest, porážali ich medzi sebou.

⁴²Therefore they turned their backs before the men of Israel unto the way of the wilderness; but the battle followed hard after them; and they that came out of the cities destroyed them in the midst thereof.

⁴³Obkľúčili Benjamina, honili ho, šliapali po ňom až do Menúchy, až pred Gibeu od východu slnca.

⁴³They inclosed the Benjamites round about, [and] chased them, [and] trod them down at [their] resting-place, as far as over against Gibeah toward the sunrising.

⁴⁴A padlo z Benjamina osemnásť tisíc mužov, a boli to všetko silní mužovia.

⁴⁴And there fell of Benjamin eighteen thousand men; all these [were] men of valor.

⁴⁵A obrátiac sa utekali na púšť ku skale Rimmon. A po hradských pobili z nich, ako paberky, päť tisíc mužov a stíhali ich ženúc sa tesne za nimi až po Gidom a pobili z nich ešte dva tisíce mužov.

⁴⁵And they turned and fled toward the wilderness unto the rock of Rimmon: and they gleaned of them in the highways five thousand men, and followed hard after them unto Gidom, and smote of them two thousand men.

⁴⁶A tak bolo všetkých, ktorí padli z Benjamina toho dňa, dvadsaťpäť tisíc mužov, spôsobných tasiť mečom, a to všetko boli silní mužovia.

⁴⁶So that all who fell that day of Benjamin were twenty and five thousand men that drew the sword; all these [were] men of valor.

⁴⁷Ale šesťsto mužov sa obrátilo a utieklo na púšť ku skale Rimmon, a bývali v skale Rimmon štyri mesiace.

⁴⁷But six hundred men turned and fled toward the wilderness unto the rock of Rimmon, and abode in the rock of Rimmon four months.

⁴⁸A mužovia Izraelovi sa vrátili k synom Benjaminovým a pobili ich ostrím meča, pobili z mesta všetko od ľudí až po hovädá, i všetko, čo sa našlo, i všetky mestá, ktoré sa našly, podpálili.

⁴⁸And the men of Israel turned again upon the children of Benjamin, and smote them with the edge of the sword, both the entire city, and the cattle, and all that they found: moreover all the cities which they found they set on fire.
