Postanak 25
1 Abraham je sebi uzeo još jednu ženu; zvala se Ketura.
[Some time after Sarah died], Abraham married another woman, whose name was Keturah.
2 Ona mu je rodila Zimrana, Jokšana, Medana, Midjana, Jišbaka i Šuaha.
She later gave birth to six sons: Zimran, Jokshan, Medan, Midian, Ishbak, and Shuah.
3 A od Jokšana rodili se Šeba i Dedan. Dedanovi su potomci: Ašurci, Letušci i Leumci.
Jokshan became the father of two sons, Sheba and Dedan. The descendants of Dedan were the Asshur people-group, the Letush people-group, and the Leum people-group.
4 Sinovi su Midjanovi: Efa, Efer, Hanok, Abida i Eldaa. Sve su to potomci Keturini.
The sons of Midian were Ephah, Epher, Hanoch, Abida, and Eldaah. They were all descendants of Keturah.
5 Abraham prenese sav svoj imutak na Izaka;
Abraham declared that after he died, Isaac would inherit everything he owned.
6 a sinovima od svojih suložnica dade Abraham samo darove i još ih za svoga života razašalje po istoku - daleko od svog sina Izaka - u Istočni kraj.
But while Abraham was still living, he gave gifts to the sons of his (concubines/slaves that he had taken to be his secondary wives), and then he sent them away to live in a land to the east, to keep them far from his son Isaac.
7 Ovo je duljina Abrahamova života što ga je proživio: stotinu sedamdeset i pet godina.
Abraham lived until he was 175 years old.
8 Zatim Abraham preminu, umrije u sretnoj dobi - star i pun godina - te bi pridružen svojim precima.
He died at a very old age, joining his ancestors who had died previously [DOU].
9 Njegovi sinovi, Izak i Jišmael, sahrane ga u spilji Makpeli, na poljani Efrona, sina Hetita Sohara, nasuprot Mamri:
His sons Isaac and Ishmael buried his body in the cave at Machpelah area, near Mamre, in the field that Abraham had previously bought from Ephron, one of the descendants of Heth.
10 to je poljana što ju je Abraham kupio od Hetovih sinova. Ondje je sahranjen Abraham i njegova žena Sara.
Isaac and Ishmael buried his body there, where Abraham previously buried his wife Sarah.
11 Poslije Abrahamove smrti Bog je blagoslivljao njegova sina Izaka. Izak je živio blizu Beer Lahaj Roja.
After Abraham died, God blessed his son Isaac. And Isaac moved to live near Beer-Lahai-Roi.
12 Ovo je povijest Abrahamova sina Jišmaela, koga je Abrahamu rodila Sarina sluškinja, Egipćanka Hagara.
(These are/I will now give a list of) the descendants of Abraham’s son, Ishmael, to whom Sarah’s female slave, Hagar from Egypt, had given birth.
13 A ovo su sinovi Jišmaelovi, svaki po svom imenu i po svom rođenju: Jišmaelov prvenac Nebajot, Kedar, Adbeel, Mibsam,
These are their names, in the order in which they were born: Ishmael’s oldest son was named Nebaioth. After him were born Kedar, Adbeel, Mibsam,
14 Mišma, Duma, Masa,
Mishma, Dumah, Massa,
15 Hadad, Tema, Jetur, Nafiš i Kedma.
Hadar, Tema, Jetur, Naphish, and Kedemah.
16 To su Jišmaelovi sinovi i to su njihova imena prema njihovim naseljima i taborištima: dvanaest poglavica od isto toliko plemena.
The twelve sons of Ishmael became the leaders/chiefs of people-groups that had those names. They each had their own settlement and campsite.
17 A ovo je duljina Jišmaelova života: stotinu trideset i sedam godina. Zatim izdahnu; umrije i bi pridružen svojim precima.
Ishmael lived until he was 137 years old. Then he died, [EUP] joining his ancestors who had previously died.
18 Potomstvo mu se naselilo od Havile do Šura, koji je na istok Egiptu idući prema Ašuru. Nastaniše se nasuprot svojoj braći.
His descendants (settled/went to live) in the area between Shur and Havilah, near the border of Egypt as a person travels toward Asshur. All of their camps were close to each other (OR, they all frequently attacked each other).
19 Ovo je povijest Abrahamova sina Izaka: Izak se rodio od Abrahama.
(This is an account of/I will now tell you about) Abraham’s son, Isaac. Abraham became the father of Isaac,
20 Izaku je bilo četrdeset godina kad se oženio Rebekom, kćerkom Aramejca Betuela iz Padan Arama, a sestrom Aramejca Labana.
and when Isaac was 40 years old, he married Rebekah, the daughter of Bethuel. Bethuel was one of the descendants of Aram from Paddan-Aram. Rebekah was the sister of Laban, who belonged to the Aram people-group.
21 Izak se obrati Jahvi za svoju ženu jer je bila nerotkinja. Jahve ga usliša te njegova žena Rebeka zače.
Almost 20 years after they were married, Rebekah still had no children. So Isaac prayed to Yahweh concerning his wife, and Yahweh answered his prayer. His wife Rebekah became pregnant.
22 No djeca se u njezinoj utrobi tako sudarala te ona uzviknu: “Ako je tako, zašto ću živjeti!” Ode, dakle, da se posavjetuje s Jahvom.
She was carrying twins in her womb, and they kept jostling each other. So she said, “Why is it [that this is happening to me]?” So she asked Yahweh about it.
23 I Jahve joj reče: “Dva su svijeta u utrobi tvojoj; dva će se naroda iz tvog krila odijeliti. Narod će nad narodom gospodovati, stariji će služiti mlađemu.”
Yahweh said to her, “The older one of your twins will serve the younger one. The twins will be ancestors of two nations. And those two people-groups will separate from each other.” [CHI]
24 Došlo vrijeme da rodi, kad gle - blizanci u njezinoj utrobi.
When Rebekah gave birth, it was true! Twin boys were born!
25 Pojavi se prvi. Bio je crven; sav runjav kao ogrtač. Stoga mu nadjenuše ime Ezav.
The first one born was red, and his body had hair all over it, like a garment made of hair. So they named him Esau, [which sounds like the Hebrew word that means ‘hairy'].
26 Potom se pojavi njegov brat. Rukom se držao Ezavu za petu. Zato mu nadjenuše ime Jakov. Izaku je bilo šezdeset godina kad su oni rođeni.
Then his brother was born, grasping Esau’s heel. So they named him Jacob, [which sounds like the Hebrew word that means ‘heel’]. Isaac was 60 years old when the twins were born.
27 Kad su dječaci odrasli, Ezav postane vješt lovac, čovjek pustare. Jakov je bio čovjek krotak i boravio je u šatorima.
When the boys grew up, Esau became a skilled hunter. He spent a lot of time out in the fields. Jacob was a quiet man who stayed close to the campsite.
28 Izaku je Ezav bio draži jer je volio divljač, a Rebeka je više voljela Jakova.
Isaac liked Esau more, because he enjoyed the taste of the meat of the animals that Esau killed. But Rebekah liked Jacob more.
29 Jednom Jakov kuhaše jelo. Ezav stigne s polja, gladan.
One day while Jacob was cooking some stew, Esau came home from the field, very hungry.
30 Reče Ezav Jakovu: “Daj mi toga crvenog variva da pojedem jer sam izgladnio.” Stoga mu je ime Edom.
He said to Jacob, “Give me some of that red stew to eat right now, because I am very hungry!” [That is why Esau’s other name was Edom, [which sounds like the Hebrew word that means ‘red]’.]
31 A Jakov odgovori: “Ustupi mi prije svoje prvorodstvo!”
Jacob said, “I will give you some if you sell me (your birthright/the privileges you have because you are the firstborn son).”
32 Ezav reče: “Evo me skoro na smrti; što će mi prvorodstvo!”
Esau replied, “Well, I am about to die [from being so hungry]. [If I die now], (my birthright will not benefit me./What good will my birthright be to me?)” [RHQ]
33 Jakov nastavi: “Prije mi se zakuni!” On mu se zakune, i tako proda Jakovu svoje prvorodstvo.
Jacob said, “(Swear to/Solemnly promise) me that you are giving me the privileges that you will have from being the firstborn son!” So that is what Esau did. He sold his birthright to Jacob.
34 Tada Jakov dade Ezavu kruha i čorbe od sočivice. Jeo je i pio, onda se digao i otišao. Tako Ezav pogazi svoje prvorodstvo.
Then Jacob gave to Esau some bread and some stew made of lentils/beans. Esau ate and drank, and then he got up and left. By doing that, Esau showed that he (was not interested in/did not value) the privileges that would be his because of being the firstborn son.
