Kniha Sudcov

1 (KJV) Now after the death of Joshua it came to pass, that the children of Israel asked the LORD, saying, Who shall go up for us against the Canaanites first, to fight against them?
1 (B21) Po Jozuově smrti se synové Izraele ptali Hospodina: "Kdo z nás má vytáhnout do boje proti Kananejcům jako první?"

2 (KJV) And the LORD said, Judah shall go up: behold, I have delivered the land into his hand.
2 (B21) Hospodin odpověděl: "Ať vytáhne Juda. Hle, dal jsem mu tu zem do rukou."

3 (KJV) And Judah said unto Simeon his brother, Come up with me into my lot, that we may fight against the Canaanites; and I likewise will go with thee into thy lot. So Simeon went with him.
3 (B21) Kmen Juda pak řekl svým bratrům ze Šimeona: "Pojďte s námi do našeho podílu bojovat proti Kananejcům. My pak zase půjdeme s vámi do vašeho podílu." Kmen Šimeon s ním tedy šel.

4 (KJV) And Judah went up; and the LORD delivered the Canaanites and the Perizzites into their hand: and they slew of them in Bezek ten thousand men.
4 (B21) Juda vytáhl a Hospodin vydal Kananejce i Perizejce do jejich rukou. Pobili jich v Bezeku 10 000.

5 (KJV) And they found Adoni-bezek in Bezek: and they fought against him, and they slew the Canaanites and the Perizzites.
5 (B21) Tam také narazili na Adoni-bezeka a bojovali s ním. Kananejce i Perizejce pobili,

6 (KJV) But Adoni-bezek fled; and they pursued after him, and caught him, and cut off his thumbs and his great toes.
6 (B21) ale Adoni-bezek uprchl. Pronásledovali ho, a když ho dopadli, usekali mu palce na rukou i na nohou.

7 (KJV) And Adoni-bezek said, Threescore and ten kings, having their thumbs and their great toes cut off, gathered their meat under my table: as I have done, so God hath requited me. And they brought him to Jerusalem, and there he died.
7 (B21) Adoni-bezek tehdy řekl: "Sedmdesát králů s usekanými palci na rukou i na nohou sbíralo drobty pod mým stolem. Jak jsem jednal, tak mi Bůh odplatil." Odvedli ho do Jeruzaléma a tam zemřel.

8 (KJV) Now the children of Judah had fought against Jerusalem, and had taken it, and smitten it with the edge of the sword, and set the city on fire.
8 (B21) Synové Judy zaútočili také na Jeruzalém a dobyli ho. Vybili město ostřím meče a vypálili.

9 (KJV) And afterward the children of Judah went down to fight against the Canaanites, that dwelt in the mountain, and in the south, and in the valley.
9 (B21) Potom sestoupili, aby bojovali proti Kananejcům bydlícím v horách, v Negevu a v podhůří.

10 (KJV) And Judah went against the Canaanites that dwelt in Hebron: (now the name of Hebron before was Kirjath-arba:) and they slew Sheshai, and Ahiman, and Talmai.
10 (B21) Vytáhli také proti Kananejcům obývajícím Hebron (dříve nazývaný Kiriat-arba), kde porazili Šešaje, Achimana a Talmaje.

11 (KJV) And from thence he went against the inhabitants of Debir: and the name of Debir before was Kirjath-sepher:
11 (B21) Odtamtud kmen Juda vytáhl proti obyvatelům Debiru (dříve nazývanému Kiriat-sefer).

12 (KJV) And Caleb said, He that smiteth Kirjath-sepher, and taketh it, to him will I give Achsah my daughter to wife.
12 (B21) Káleb tehdy řekl: "Kdo udeří na Kiriat-sefer a dobude ho, tomu dám za ženu svou dceru Aksu."

13 (KJV) And Othniel the son of Kenaz, Caleb's younger brother, took it: and he gave him Achsah his daughter to wife.
13 (B21) Dobyl ho Otniel, syn Kálebova mladšího bratra Kenaze, a tak mu dal svou dceru Aksu za ženu.

14 (KJV) And it came to pass, when she came to him, that she moved him to ask of her father a field: and she lighted from off her ass; and Caleb said unto her, What wilt thou?
14 (B21) Jednou za ním přišla a nabádala ho, ať jejího otce žádá o pole. Když sesedla z osla, Káleb se jí zeptal: "Co bys ráda?"

15 (KJV) And she said unto him, Give me a blessing: for thou hast given me a south land; give me also springs of water. And Caleb gave her the upper springs and the nether springs.
15 (B21) "Dej mi, prosím, dárek," odpověděla. "Vždyť jsi mi dal zem v negevské poušti. Kéž bys mi dal studánky s vodou." A tak jí dal studánky - Horní i Dolní Gulot.

16 (KJV) And the children of the Kenite, Moses' father in law, went up out of the city of palm trees with the children of Judah into the wilderness of Judah, which lieth in the south of Arad; and they went and dwelt among the people.
16 (B21) S Judovými syny vytáhli z Palmového města do judské pouště na jih od Aradu také potomci Mojžíšova tchána, Kenijce. Když tam dorazili, usídlili se mezi místními.

17 (KJV) And Judah went with Simeon his brother, and they slew the Canaanites that inhabited Zephath, and utterly destroyed it. And the name of the city was called Hormah.
17 (B21) Juda ale táhl se svým bratrem Šimeonem dál, vybili Kananejce bydlící v Cefatu a vyhubili je jako proklaté. To město proto dostalo jméno Chorma, Klatba.

18 (KJV) Also Judah took Gaza with the coast thereof, and Askelon with the coast thereof, and Ekron with the coast thereof.
18 (B21) Juda dobýval také Gazu, Aškelon, Ekron a jejich okolí,

19 (KJV) And the LORD was with Judah; and he drave out the inhabitants of the mountain; but could not drive out the inhabitants of the valley, because they had chariots of iron.
19 (B21) ale nedokázal obyvatele nížiny vyhnat, protože měli železné vozy. Hospodin však byl s Judou, a tak se mu podařilo zabrat pohoří.

20 (KJV) And they gave Hebron unto Caleb, as Moses said: and he expelled thence the three sons of Anak.
20 (B21) Hebron dali podle Mojžíšova slova Kálebovi a ten odsud vyhnal trojici Anakových synů.

21 (KJV) And the children of Benjamin did not drive out the Jebusites that inhabited Jerusalem; but the Jebusites dwell with the children of Benjamin in Jerusalem unto this day.
21 (B21) Synové Benjamínovi ale nevyhnali Jebusejce bydlící v Jeruzalémě, a tak Jebusejci žijí v Jeruzalémě spolu s Benjamínci až dodnes.

22 (KJV) And the house of Joseph, they also went up against Bethel: and the LORD was with them.
22 (B21) Také Josefovi potomci vytáhli, a to na Bet-el, a Hospodin byl s nimi.

23 (KJV) And the house of Joseph sent to descry Bethel. (Now the name of the city before was Luz.)
23 (B21) Když vyslali muže, aby prozkoumali Bet-el (dříve nazývaný Luz),

24 (KJV) And the spies saw a man come forth out of the city, and they said unto him, Shew us, we pray thee, the entrance into the city, and we will shew thee mercy.
24 (B21) uviděli zvědové z města vycházet nějakého muže. "Ukaž nám, prosím, kudy do města," řekli mu, "a zachováme se k tobě milosrdně."

25 (KJV) And when he shewed them the entrance into the city, they smote the city with the edge of the sword; but they let go the man and all his family.
25 (B21) Ukázal jim tedy, kudy do města, a oni to město vybili ostřím meče. Toho muže ale i s celou rodinou propustili.

26 (KJV) And the man went into the land of the Hittites, and built a city, and called the name thereof Luz: which is the name thereof unto this day.
26 (B21) Odešel pak do země Chetitů, vystavěl město, nazval je Luz a tak se jmenuje až dodnes.

27 (KJV) Neither did Manasseh drive out the inhabitants of Beth-shean and her towns, nor Taanach and her towns, nor the inhabitants of Dor and her towns, nor the inhabitants of Ibleam and her towns, nor the inhabitants of Megiddo and her towns: but the Canaanites would dwell in that land.
27 (B21) Kmen Manases ale nebyl s to dobýt Bet-šean ani Taanach s jejich vesnicemi. Nevyhnali ani obyvatele Doru, Jibleamu a Megida s jejich vesnicemi. Kananejci totiž byli rozhodnuti v té zemi zůstat.

28 (KJV) And it came to pass, when Israel was strong, that they put the Canaanites to tribute, and did not utterly drive them out.
28 (B21) Když Izrael později zesílil, podrobil Kananejce nuceným pracím, ale úplně se jich nezbavil.

29 (KJV) Neither did Ephraim drive out the Canaanites that dwelt in Gezer; but the Canaanites dwelt in Gezer among them.
29 (B21) Efraim nebyl s to vyhnat Kananejce bydlící v Gezeru, a tak zůstali Kananejci bydlet mezi nimi.

30 (KJV) Neither did Zebulun drive out the inhabitants of Kitron, nor the inhabitants of Nahalol; but the Canaanites dwelt among them, and became tributaries.
30 (B21) Zabulon nebyl s to vyhnat obyvatele Kitronu ani Nahalolu, a tak zůstali Kananejci bydlet mezi nimi; byli však podrobeni nuceným pracím.

31 (KJV) Neither did Asher drive out the inhabitants of Accho, nor the inhabitants of Zidon, nor of Ahlab, nor of Achzib, nor of Helbah, nor of Aphik, nor of Rehob:
31 (B21) Ašer nebyl s to vyhnat obyvatele Akka, Sidonu, Achlabu, Achzibu, Chelby, Afeku ani Rechobu.

32 (KJV) But the Asherites dwelt among the Canaanites, the inhabitants of the land: for they did not drive them out.
32 (B21) Ašerovci se tedy usídlili uprostřed kananejských obyvatel země, protože je nedokázali vyhnat.

33 (KJV) Neither did Naphtali drive out the inhabitants of Beth-shemesh, nor the inhabitants of Beth-anath; but he dwelt among the Canaanites, the inhabitants of the land: nevertheless the inhabitants of Beth-shemesh and of Beth-anath became tributaries unto them.
33 (B21) Neftalí nevyhnal obyvatele Bet-šemeše ani Bet-anatu, a tak se usídlil uprostřed kananejských obyvatel země. Později však podrobili obyvatele Bet-šemeše a Bet-anatu nuceným pracím.

34 (KJV) And the Amorites forced the children of Dan into the mountain: for they would not suffer them to come down to the valley:
34 (B21) Syny Danovy zatlačili Emorejci do hor; vůbec je nenechali sestoupit do nížiny.

35 (KJV) But the Amorites would dwell in mount Heres in Aijalon, and in Shaalbim: yet the hand of the house of Joseph prevailed, so that they became tributaries.
35 (B21) Emorejci byli rozhodnuti zůstat v Har-cheresu, v Ajalonu i v Šaalbimu. Teprve když vzrostla moc domu Josefova, byli podrobeni nuceným pracím.

36 (KJV) And the coast of the Amorites was from the going up to Akrabbim, from the rock, and upward.
36 (B21) Emorejská hranice vedla od průsmyku Akrabim, od Sely výše.
