< Postanak 32 >

1 Jakov je putovao svojim putem, kad mu u susret izađu anđeli Božji.
But Iacob went forth on his iourney. And the angells of God came and mett him.
2 Kad ih Jakov opazi, reče: “Ovo je Božje taborište!” Zato nazva ono mjesto Mahanajim.
And when Iacob sawe them he sayde: this is godes hoost: and called the name of that same place Mahanaim.
3 Jakov pošalje pred sobom glasnike svome bratu Ezavu u zemlju Seir, u Edomsku pustaru,
Iacob sente meessengers before him to Esau his brother vnto the lande of Seir and the felde of Edom.
4 i naloži im: “Ovako ćete reći mome gospodaru Ezavu: 'Sluga tvoj Jakov poručuje ti: Boravio sam kod Labana i dosad se ondje zadržao.
And he comaunded them saynge: se that ye speake after this maner to my lorde Esau: thy seruaunte Iacob sayth thus. I haue sogerned ad bene a straunger with Laban vnto this tyme:
5 Stekao sam goveda, magaradi, ovaca, sluga i sluškinja. Javljam to svome gospodaru, ne bih li našao naklonost u njegovim očima.'”
and haue gotten oxen asses and shepe menservauntes and wemanseruauntes and haue sent to shewe it mi lorde that I may fynde grace in thy syghte.
6 Glasnici se vrate Jakovu te mu reknu: “Bili smo kod tvoga brata Ezava; on sam dolazi ti u susret sa četiri stotine momaka.”
And the messengers came agayne to Iacob sainge: we came vnto thi brother Esau and he cometh ageynst the and. iiij. hundred men with hi.
7 Jakov se silno uplaši. U zabrinutosti rastavi na dva tabora ljude, stada, krda i deve što ih je sa sobom imao.
Than was Iacob greatlye afrayde and wist not which waye to turne him selfe and devyded the people that was with him and the shepe oxen and camels in to. ij. companies
8 Računao je: ako Ezav naiđe na jedan tabor i napadne ga, drugi bi se tabor mogao spasiti.
and sayde: Yf Esau come to the one parte and smyte it the other may saue it selfe.
9 Onda se Jakov pomoli: “O Bože oca moga Abrahama! Bože oca moga Izaka! O Jahve, koji si mi naredio: 'Vrati se u svoj rodni kraj, i ja ću ti biti dobrostiv!'
And Iacob sayde: O god of my father Abraham and God of my father Isaac: LORde which saydest vnto me returne vnto thy cuntre and to thy kynrede and I will deall wel with the.
10 Nisam vrijedan sve dobrote koju si tako postojano iskazivao svome sluzi. TÓa samo sam sa svojim štapom nekoć prešao ovaj Jordan, a sad sam narastao u dva tabora.
I am not worthy of the leaste of all the mercyes and treuth which thou hast shewed vnto thy seruaunte. For with my staf came I over this Iordane and now haue Igoten. ij. droves
11 Izbavi me od šaka moga brata, od šaka Ezavovih! Inače se bojim da bi mogao doći i umlatiti i mene, i majke, i djecu.
Delyver me from the handes of my brother Esau for I feare him: lest he will come and smyte the mother with the childeru.
12 Ti si rekao: 'Obilnim ću te dobrima obasipati i tvoje potomstvo umnožiti poput pijeska u moru koji se ne da prebrojiti zbog množine.'”
Thou saydest that thou woldest surely do me good and woldest make mi seed as the sonde of the see which can not be nombred for multitude.
13 Ondje provede onu noć; a onda, od onog što je imao pri ruci, pripravi dar svome bratu Ezavu:
And he taried there that same nyghte and toke of that which came to hande a preasent vnto Esau his brother:
14 dvjesta koza i dvadeset jaraca, dvjesta ovaca i dvadeset ovnova;
ij hundred she gootes ad xx he gootes: ij hundred shepe and xx rammes:
15 trideset deva dojilica s njihovim mladima; četrdeset krava i deset junaca; dvadeset magarica i deset magaraca.
thyrtye mylch camels with their coltes: xl kyne ad x bulles: xx she asses ad foles
16 Stado po stado preda svojim slugama. Onda reče svojim slugama: “Idite preda mnom, ali držite razmak među stadima!”
and delyuered them vnto his seruauntes euery drooue by them selues ad sayde vnto them: goo forth before me and put a space betwyxte euery drooue.
17 A prvom izda naredbu rekavši: “Kad te sretne moj brat Ezav pa te upita: 'Čiji si ti? Kamo ideš? Čije je ovo pred tobom?'
And he comaunded the formest sayngeWhe Esau my brother meteth the ad axeth the saynge: whose seruaute art thou and whither goost thou and whose ar these that goo before ye:
18 odgovori: 'Tvoga sluge Jakova; ovo je dar koji šalje svome gospodaru Ezavu; on je tamo za nama.'”
thou shalt say they be thy seruaunte Iacobs and are a present sent vnto my lorde Esau and beholde he him selfe cometh after vs.
19 Tako je naredio i drugome, pa trećemu i svima drugima koji su išli za stadima: “Ovo i ovako reci Ezavu kad ga sretneš.
And so comaunded he the seconde ad euen so the thirde and lykewyse all that folowed the drooues sainge of this maner se that ye speake vnto Esau whe ye mete him
20 Još mu dodaj: 'A sluga tvoj Jakov i sam je za nama.'” Mislio je naime: “Ako ga unaprijed udobrostivim darovima, a onda se s njim suočim, možda će mi oprostiti.”
ad saye more ouer. Beholde thy seruaunte Iacob cometh after vs for he sayde. I will pease his wrath with the present yt goth before me and afterward I will see him myself so peradventure he will receaue me to grace.
21 Tako darovi krenu naprijed, dok je on ostao one noći u taborištu.
So went the preset before him ad he taried all that nyghte in the tente
22 One noći on ustane, uzme svoje obje žene, obje svoje sluškinje i svoje jedanaestero djece te prijeđe Jabok preko gaza.
ad rose vp the same nyghte ad toke his. ij. wyves and his. ij. maydens and his. xi. sonnes and went ouer the foorde Iabok.
23 Prebacivši njih na drugu stranu toka, prebaci zatim i ostalo što bijaše njegovo.
And he toke them ad sent the ouer the ryuer ad sent ouer that he had
24 Jakov ostane sam. I neki se čovjek rvao s njim dok nije zora svanula.
ad taried behinde him selfe alone. And there wrastled a man with him vnto the breakynge of the daye.
25 Videći da ga ne može svladati, ugane mu bedro pri zglobu, tako da se Jakovu kuk iščašio dok su se rvali.
And when he sawe that he coude not prevayle agaynst him he smote hi vnder the thye and the senowe of Iacobs thy shranke as he wrastled with him.
26 Potom reče: “Pusti me jer zora sviće!” Ali on odgovori: “Neću te pustiti dok me ne blagosloviš.”
And he sayde: let me goo for the daye breaketh. And he sayde: I will not lett the goo excepte thou blesse me.
27 Nato ga onaj zapita: “Kako ti je ime?” Odgovori: “Jakov.”
And he sayde vnto him: what is thy name? He answered: Iacob.
28 Onaj reče. “Više se nećeš zvati Jakov nego Izrael, jer si se hrabro borio i s Bogom i s ljudima i nadvladao si.”
And he sayde: thou shalt be called Iacob nomore but Israell. For thou hast wrastled with God and with men ad hast preuayled.
29 Onda zapita Jakov: “Reci mi svoje ime!” Odgovori onaj: “Za moje me ime ne smiješ pitati!” I tu ga blagoslovi.
And Iacob asked him sainge tell me thi name. And he sayde wherfore dost thou aske after my name? and he blessed him there.
30 Onom mjestu Jakov nadjene ime Penuel jer - reče - “Vidjeh Boga licem u lice, i na životu ostadoh.”
And Iacob called the name of the place Peniel for I haue sene God face to face and yet is my lyfe reserved.
31 Sunce je nad njim bilo ogranulo kad je prošao Penuel. Hramao je zbog kuka.
And as he went ouer Peniel the sonne rose vpon him and he halted vpon his thye:
32 Zato Izraelci do današnjeg dana ne jedu kukovnu tetivu što se nalazi na bedrenom zglobu, budući da je Jakovljev bedreni zglob bio iščašen u kukovnoj tetivi.
wherfore the childern of Israell eate not of the senow that shrancke vnder the thye vnto this daye: because that he smote Iacob vnder the thye in the senow that shroncke.
