HOLY BIBLE: Judges 18 (original) (raw)

11 καὶ ἀπῆραν ἐκ συγγενείας τοῦ Δαν ἐκ Σαραα καὶ Εσθαολ ἑξακόσιοι ἄνδρες περιεζωσμένοι σκεύη πολεμικά 12 καὶ ἀνέβησαν καὶ παρενεβάλοσαν ἐν Καριαθιαριμ ἐν Ιουδα διὰ τοῦτο ἐκλήθη τῷ τόπῳ ἐκείνῳ Παρεμβολὴ Δαν ἕως τῆς ἡμέρας ταύτης ἰδοὺ κατόπισθεν Καριαθιαριμ 13 παρῆλθαν ἐκεῖθεν καὶ ἦλθαν ἕως τοῦ ὄρους Εφραιμ καὶ ἦλθον ἕως οἴκου Μιχα 14 καὶ ἀπεκρίθησαν οἱ πέντε ἄνδρες οἱ πορευόμενοι κατασκέψασθαι τὴν γῆν καὶ εἶπαν πρὸς τοὺς ἀδελφοὺς αὐτῶν εἰ οἴδατε ὅτι ἐν τοῖς οἴκοις τούτοις εφουδ καὶ θεραφιν καὶ γλυπτὸν καὶ χωνευτόν καὶ νῦν γνῶτε τί ποιήσετε 15 καὶ ἐξέκλιναν ἐκεῖ καὶ εἰσήλθοσαν εἰς τὸν οἶκον τοῦ παιδαρίου τοῦ Λευίτου εἰς τὸν οἶκον Μιχα καὶ ἠσπάσαντο αὐτόν 16 καὶ οἱ ἑξακόσιοι ἄνδρες περιεζωσμένοι σκεύη πολεμικὰ ἐστηλωμένοι παρὰ τὴν θύραν τοῦ πυλῶνος οἱ ἐκ τῶν υἱῶν Δαν 17 καὶ ἀνέβησαν οἱ πέντε ἄνδρες οἱ πορευόμενοι κατασκέψασθαι τὴν γῆν ἐπελθόντες ἐκεῖ ἔλαβον τὸ γλυπτὸν καὶ τὸ εφουδ καὶ τὸ θεραφιν καὶ τὸ χωνευτόν καὶ ὁ ἱερεὺς ἐστηλωμένος παρὰ τῇ θύρᾳ τοῦ πυλῶνος καὶ οἱ ἑξακόσιοι ἄνδρες οἱ περιεζωσμένοι σκεύη πολεμικά 18 καὶ οὗτοι εἰσῆλθον εἰς οἶκον Μιχα καὶ ἔλαβον τὸ γλυπτὸν καὶ τὸ εφουδ καὶ τὸ θεραφιν καὶ τὸ χωνευτόν καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς αὐτοὺς ὁ ἱερεύς τί ὑμεῖς ποιεῖτε 19 καὶ εἶπαν πρὸς αὐτόν κώφευσον ἐπίθες τὴν χεῖρά σου ἐπὶ τὸ στόμα σου καὶ ἐλθὲ με{Q'} ἡμῶν καὶ ἔσῃ ἡμῖν εἰς πατέρα καὶ εἰς ἱερέα μὴ βέλτιον εἶναί σε ἱερέα οἴκου ἀνδρὸς ἑνὸς ἢ γίνεσθαί σε ἱερέα φυλῆς καὶ συγγενείας ἐν Ισραηλ 20 καὶ ἠγαθύνθη ἡ καρδία τοῦ ἱερέως καὶ ἔλαβεν τὸ εφουδ καὶ τὸ θεραφιν καὶ τὸ γλυπτὸν καὶ τὸ χωνευτὸν καὶ εἰσῆλθεν ἐν μέσῳ τοῦ λαοῦ

11 So six hundred men of Dan, from Saraa and Esthaol, marched out fully armed, 12 and made their first halt at Cariathiarim, in Juda, on the spot which has been called the Camp of Dan ever since, just west of Cariathiarim. 13 Thence they made their way into the hill-country of Ephraim; and when they reached the house of Michas, 14 the five men who had been sent on the mission to Lais said to their fellow-tribesmen, Do you know what we found in that house? A sacred mantle, and household deities, and a carved image with a sheath of metal. Look well to it what course you will take. 15 So they turned aside a little to visit the lodging of the young Levite that was priest in Michas’ household, and gave him friendly greeting. 16 Six hundred armed men stood at the door, 17 while those who had made their way into the young man’s lodging set about carrying off carved image, and mantle, and household deities, and metal sheath all together; and all the while the priest was in the doorway, with six hundred fighting men close by. 18 As they brought out these treasures one after another, the priest asked them what they would be at, 19 but they bade him keep his lips tight shut, and come with them. We will honour thee, they said, as father and priest. Wouldst thou rather be priest to one man’s household than to a whole tribe, a whole clan of Israel? 20 For the Levite, it was pleasant hearing enough; he took up mantle and household deities and image, and went off in their company.

11 Profecti igitur sunt de cognatione Dan, id est, de Saraa et Esthaol, sexcenti viri accincti armis bellicis, 12 ascendentesque manserunt in Cariathiarim Judæ: qui locus ex eo tempore Castrorum Dan nomen accepit, et est post tergum Cariathiarim. 13 Inde transierunt in montem Ephraim. Cumque venissent ad domum Michæ, 14 dixerunt quinque viri, qui prius missi fuerant ad considerandam terram Lais, ceteris fratribus suis: Nostis quod in domibus istis sit ephod, et theraphim, et sculptile, atque conflatile: videte quid vobis placeat. 15 Et cum paululum declinassent, ingressi sunt domum adolescentis Levitæ, qui erat in domo Michæ: salutaveruntque eum verbis pacificis. 16 Sexcenti autem viri ita ut erant armati, stabant ante ostium. 17 At illi, qui ingressi fuerant domum juvenis, sculptile, et ephod, et theraphim, atque conflatile tollere nitebantur, et sacerdos stabat ante ostium, sexcentis viris fortissimis haud procul expectantibus. 18 Tulerunt igitur qui intraverant sculptile, ephod, et idola, atque conflatile. Quibus dixit sacerdos: Quid facitis? 19 Cui responderunt: Tace et pone digitum super os tuum: venique nobiscum, ut habeamus te patrem, ac sacerdotem. Quid tibi melius est, ut sis sacerdos in domo unius viri, an in una tribu et familia in Israël? 20 Quod cum audisset, acquievit sermonibus eorum, et tulit ephod, et idola, ac sculptile, et profectus est cum eis.

21 καὶ ἐπέστρεψαν καὶ ἀπῆλθαν καὶ ἔταξαν τὴν πανοικίαν καὶ τὴν κτῆσιν αὐτοῦ τὴν ἔνδοξον ἔμπροσθεν αὐτῶν 22 αὐτῶν δὲ μεμακρυγκότων ἀπὸ τοῦ οἴκου Μιχα καὶ ἰδοὺ Μιχα καὶ οἱ ἄνδρες οἱ σὺν τῷ οἴκῳ μετὰ Μιχα ἔκραζον κατοπίσω υἱῶν Δαν 23 καὶ ἐπέστρεψαν οἱ υἱοὶ Δαν τὰ πρόσωπα αὐτῶν καὶ εἶπαν πρὸς Μιχα τί ἐστίν σοι ὅτι ἔκραξας 24 καὶ εἶπεν Μιχα ὅτι τὸ γλυπτόν μου ὃ ἐποίησα ἐμαυτῷ ἐλάβετε καὶ τὸν ἱερέα καὶ ἀπήλθατε καὶ τί ἐμοὶ ἔτι καὶ τί τοῦτο λέγετέ μοι τί τοῦτο κράζεις 25 καὶ εἶπον πρὸς αὐτὸν οἱ υἱοὶ Δαν μὴ ἀκουσθήτω δὴ ἡ φωνή σου με{Q'} ἡμῶν μήποτε ἀπαντήσωσιν ὑμῖν ἄνδρες κατώδυνοι ψυχῇ καὶ προσθήσεις τὴν ψυχήν σου καὶ τὴν ψυχὴν τοῦ οἴκου σου 26 καὶ ἐπορεύθησαν οἱ υἱοὶ Δαν εἰς τὴν ὁδὸν αὐτῶν καὶ εἶδεν Μιχα ὅτι ἰσχυρότεροί εἰσιν αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐξένευσεν καὶ ἀνέστρεψεν εἰς τὸν οἶκον αὐτοῦ

21 So on they went, with children and pack animals and stores travelling in front, 22 and were a long way from Michas’ house when they heard his men coming up behind them with a great hue and cry, 23 calling on them to halt. At that, they looked round and asked Michas what ailed him, what all the shouting meant. 24 You have robbed me, he answered, robbed me of the gods I made for myself, of my own priest, of all that I had, and you ask what ails me! 25 It were well, the children of Dan said, that we should hear no more of thy complaints. There might be some hot-heads among us would turn back to meet thee, and thou and thine would rue it! 26 With that, they went on their way, and Michas, who saw they were too strong for him, must betake himself home.

21 Qui cum pergerent, et ante se ire fecissent parvulos ac jumenta, et omne quod erat pretiosum, 22 et jam a domo Michæ essent procul, viri qui habitabant in ædibus Michæ conclamantes secuti sunt, 23 et post tergum clamare cœperunt. Qui cum respexissent, dixerunt ad Micham: Quid tibi vis? cur clamas? 24 Qui respondit: Deos meos, quos mihi feci, tulistis, et sacerdotem, et omnia quæ habeo, et dicitis: Quid tibi est? 25 Dixeruntque ei filii Dan: Cave ne ultra loquaris ad nos, et veniant ad te viri animo concitati, et ipse cum omni domo tua pereas. 26 Et sic cœpto itinere perrexerunt. Videns autem Michas quod fortiores se essent, reversus est in domum suam.
