Postanak 21
1 Jahve se sjeti Sare kako je rekao i učini joj kako je obećao:
Yahweh paid attention to Sarah as he had said he would, and Yahweh did for Sarah just as he had promised.
2 Sara zače i rodi Abrahamu sina u njegovoj starosti - u vrijeme koje je Bog označio.
Sarah conceived and bore a son to Abraham in his old age, at the set time of which God had spoken to him.
3 Abraham nadjene ime Izak svome sinu što mu ga Sara rodi.
Abraham named his son, the one who had been born to him, whom Sarah bore to him, Isaac.
4 I poslije osam dana obreza Abraham svoga sina Izaka, kako mu je Bog naredio.
Abraham circumcised his son Isaac when he was eight days old, just as God had commanded him.
5 Abrahamu bijaše stotinu godina kad mu se rodio sin Izak.
Abraham was one hundred years old when his son Isaac was born to him.
6 Sara reče: “Dade mi Bog da se nasmijem, i tko god to čuje nasmijat će mi se.”
Sarah said, “God has made me laugh; every one who hears will laugh with me.”
7 Još doda: “Tko bi ikad rekao Abrahamu: djecu će ti Sara dojiti! Ipak sina mu rodih u starosti”.
She also said, “Who would have said to Abraham that Sarah would nurse children, and yet I have borne him a son in his old age!”
8 Dijete je raslo i bilo od sise odbijeno. A u dan u koji Izak bijaše od sise odbijen Abraham priredi veliku gozbu.
The child grew and was weaned, and Abraham made a great feast on the day that Isaac was weaned.
9 Jednom opazi Sara gdje se sin koga je Egipćanka Hagara Abrahamu rodila igra s njezinim sinom Izakom,
Sarah saw the son of Hagar the Egyptian, whom she had borne to Abraham, mocking.
10 pa reče Abrahamu: “Otjeraj tu sluškinju i njezina sina, jer sin sluškinje ne smije biti baštinik s mojim sinom - s Izakom!”
So she said to Abraham, “Drive out this slave woman and her son, for the son of this slave woman will not be heir with my son, with Isaac.”
11 To je Abrahamu bilo nemilo, jer je i Jišmael bio njegov sin.
This thing was very grievous to Abraham because of his son.
12 Ali Bog reče Abrahamu: “Nemoj se uznemirivati zbog dječaka i zbog svoje sluškinje; sve što ti kaže Sara poslušaj, jer će Izakovo potomstvo tebi ovjekovječiti ime.
But God said to Abraham, “Do not be grieved because of the lad, and because of your servant woman. Listen to her words in all she says to you about this matter, because it is through Isaac that your descendants will be named.
13 I od sina tvoje sluškinje podići ću velik narod, jer je tvoj potomak.”
I will also make the son of the servant woman into a nation, because he is your descendant.”
14 Rano ujutro Abraham uze kruha i mješinicu vode pa dade Hagari; stavi to na njezina ramena, zajedno s dječakom, te je otpusti. Vrludala je amo-tamo po pustinji Beer Šebe.
Abraham rose up early in the morning, took bread and a skin of water, and gave it to Hagar, putting it on her shoulder. He gave her the boy and sent her away. She departed and wandered in the wilderness of Beersheba.
15 Potrošivši vodu iz mješinice, ostavi dijete pod jednim grmom,
When the water in the waterskin was gone, she abandoned the child under one of the bushes.
16 a sama ode i sjede nasuprot, daleko koliko luk može dobaciti. Govorila je u sebi: “Neću da vidim kako dijete umire.” Sjedeći tako, udari u jecanje.
Then she went, and sat down a short distance from him, about the distance of a bowshot away, for she said, “Let me not look upon the death of the child.” As she sat there across from him, she lifted up her voice and wept.
17 Bog ču plač dječaka te anđeo Božji zovne s neba Hagaru i reče joj: “Što ti je, Hagaro? Ne boj se! Jer je Bog čuo plač dječaka u njegovoj nevolji.
God heard the voice of the lad, and the angel of God called to Hagar out of heaven, and said to her, “What troubles you, Hagar? Do not be afraid, for God has heard the voice of the lad where he is.
18 Na noge! Digni dječaka i utješi ga, jer od njega ću podići velik narod.”
Get up, raise up the lad, and encourage him; for I will make him into a great nation.”
19 Tada joj Bog otvori oči pa ona opazi studenac. Ode i napuni vodom mješinicu pa napoji dječaka.
Then God opened her eyes, and she saw a well of water. She went and filled the skin with water, and gave the lad a drink.
20 Bog je bio s dječakom te je rastao i odrastao. Živio je u pustinji te postao vješt u strijeljanju iz luka.
God was with the lad, and he grew. He lived in the wilderness and became an archer.
21 Dom mu bijaše u pustinji Paranu; a njegova mu majka dobavi ženu iz zemlje egipatske.
He lived in the wilderness of Paran, and his mother got a wife for him from the land of Egypt.
22 U to vrijeme Abimelek - koga je pratio Fikol, zapovjednik njegove vojske - reče Abrahamu: “Bog je s tobom u svemu što radiš.
It came about at that time that Abimelech and Phicol the captain of his army spoke to Abraham, saying, “God is with you in all that you do.
23 Stoga mi se ovdje i sada zakuni Bogom da nećeš varati ni mene ni moju rodbinu i prijatelje nego da ćeš se prema meni i prema zemlji u kojoj sad boraviš ponašati pošteno, kao što sam se ja prema tebi ponio.”
Now therefore swear to me here by God that you will not deal falsely with me, nor with my offspring, nor with my descendants. Show to me and to the land in which you have been staying the same covenant faithfulness that I have shown to you.”
24 “Kunem se”, odgovori Abraham.
Abraham said, “I swear.”
25 Onda Abraham prekori Abimeleka zbog zdenca vode što su ga Abimelekove sluge bile prisvojile.
Abraham also complained to Abimelech concerning a well of water that Abimelech's servants had seized from him.
26 A Abimelek reče: “Ne znam tko je to učinio; ni ti me nisi o tome obavijestio, niti sam ja o tome čuo, osim danas.”
Abimelech said, “I do not know who has done this thing. You did not tell me before now; I have not heard of it until today.”
27 Abraham uzme ovaca i goveda pa ih dade Abimeleku te njih dvojica sklope savez.
So Abraham took sheep and oxen and gave them to Abimelech, and the two men made a covenant.
28 Potom Abraham razluči napose sedam janjaca od stada.
Then Abraham set seven female lambs of the flock by themselves.
29 Nato Abimelek zapita Abrahama: “Što znači ovih sedam janjaca koje si na stranu stavio?”
Abimelech said to Abraham, “What is the meaning of these seven female lambs that you have set by themselves?”
30 A on odgovori: “Primi ovih sedam janjaca iz moje ruke da mi bude dokazom da sam ja iskopao ovaj zdenac.”
He replied, “These seven female lambs you will receive from my hand, so that it may be a witness for me, that I dug this well.”
31 Zato se ono mjesto nazvalo Beer Šeba; jer se njih dvojica ondje zakleše.
So he called that place Beersheba, because there they both swore an oath.
32 Pošto su sklopili savez kod Beer Šebe, Abimelek i zapovjednik njegove vojske Fikol odu i vrate se u zemlju Filistejaca.
They made a covenant at Beersheba, and then Abimelech and Phicol, the captain of his army, returned to the land of the Philistines.
33 Abraham zasadi kod Beer Šebe tamarisku i ondje zazove ime Jahve - Boga Vječnoga.
Abraham planted a tamarisk tree in Beersheba. There he worshiped Yahweh, the eternal God.
34 Dugo je vremena Abraham proveo u zemlji filistejskoj kao pridošlica.
Abraham remained as a foreigner in the land of the Philistines many days.
