Postanak 35
1 Bog reče Jakovu: “Ustani, idi gore u Betel te ondje ostani! Načini ondje žrtvenik Bogu koji ti se objavio kad si bježao od svoga brata Ezava!”
Then God told Jacob, “Get ready to go to Bethel and live there. Build an altar there to God, who appeared to you when you were running away from your brother Esau.”
2 I Jakov reče svojoj obitelji i svima koji bijahu s njime: “Odbacite tuđe kumire koji se nalaze u vašoj sredini; očistite se i preobucite.
So Jacob told his family and everyone who was with him, “Get rid of the pagan idols you have with you. Purify yourselves and change your clothes.
3 Idemo gore u Betel; ondje ću načiniti žrtvenik Bogu, koji me uslišao kad sam bio u nevolji i sa mnom bio na putu kojim sam hodio.”
We have to get ready and go to Bethel so I can build an altar to God who answered me in my time of trouble. He has been with me wherever I went.”
4 Oni predaju Jakovu sve tuđe kumire što su ih imali i naušnice što su bile o njihovim ušima, pa ih Jakov zakopa pod hrast kod Šekema.
They handed over to Jacob all the pagan idols they had, as well as their earrings, and he buried them under the oak tree at Shechem.
5 Kad su se zaputili, strah od Boga spopadne okolišna mjesta, tako da nisu išli u potjeru za Jakovljevim sinovima.
As they left on their journey, the terror of God spread over all the surrounding towns, so nobody tried to retaliate against Jacob's sons.
6 Jakov stigne u Luz, to jest Betel, u zemlji kanaanskoj, i sav puk što je bio s njim.
Jacob and everyone with him arrived at Luz (also known as Bethel) in the country of Canaan.
7 Ondje sagradi žrtvenik i mjesto nazva El Betel, jer mu se ondje Bog objavio kad on bježaše pred svojim bratom Ezavom.
He built an altar there and called the place El-Bethel, because that was where God had appeared to him when he was running away from his brother Esau.
8 Tada umre Rebekina dojilja Debora te je sahraniše pod Betelom, pod hrastom, koji se otad zove “Tužni hrast”.
Deborah, Rebekah's nurse, died and was buried under the oak near Bethel. So it was named “the oak of weeping.”
9 Bog se opet objavi Jakovu kad je stigao iz Padan Arama, te ga blagoslovi.
God appeared to Jacob again and blessed him after his return from Paddan-aram.
10 Bog mu reče: “Ime ti je Jakov, ali se odsad nećeš zvati Jakov nego će Izrael biti tvoje ime.” Tako ga prozva Izraelom.
God told him, “Jacob will not be your name any longer. Instead of Jacob your name will be Israel.” So God called him Israel.
11 Onda mu Bog reče: “Ja sam El Šadaj - Bog Svesilni! Budi rodan i množi se! Od tebe poteći će narod, mnoštvo naroda, i kraljevi iz tvog će izaći krila.
Then God said, “I am God Almighty! Reproduce, increase, and you will become a nation—in fact a group of nations—and kings will be among your descendants.
12 Zemlju što je dadoh Abrahamu i Izaku tebi predajem; i potomstvu tvojem poslije tebe zemlju ću ovu dati.”
I will give to you and to your descendants the land I also gave to Abraham and Isaac.”
13 A onda Bog ode od njega gore.
Then God left the place where he had been speaking to Jacob.
14 Na mjestu gdje je Bog s njim govorio Jakov uspravi stup, stup od kamena; na njemu prinese žrtvu i izli ulja.
Afterwards Jacob set up a stone pillar where God had spoken with him. He poured out a drink offering on it, and also olive oil.
15 A mjesto gdje mu je Bog govorio Jakov nazva Betel.
Jacob called the place Bethel, because he had spoken with God there.
16 Potom odu iz Betela. Još bijaše malo puta do Efrate, a Rahela se nađe pri porođaju. Napali je teški trudovi.
Then they moved on from Bethel. While they were still some distance from Ephrath, Rachel went into labor and had great difficulty giving birth.
17 Kad su joj porođajni bolovi bili najteži, reče joj babica: “Ne boj se jer ti je i ovo sin!”
When she was in the worst birth-pains, the midwife told her, “Don't give up—you have another son!”
18 Kad se rastavljala s dušom - jer umiraše Rahela - nadjenu sinu ime Ben Oni; ali ga otac prozva Benjamin.
But she was dying, and with her last breath she named him Benoni. But his father named him Benjamin.
19 Tako umrije Rahela. Sahrane je na putu u Efratu, to jest Betlehem.
Rachel died and was buried on the way to Ephrath (also known as Bethlehem).
20 A na njezinu grobu Jakov podigne spomenik - onaj što je na Rahelinu grobu do danas.
Jacob set up a stone memorial over Rachel's grave, and it's still there to this day.
21 Izrael krenu dalje te razape svoj šator s onu stranu Migdal-Edera.
Israel moved on and camped beyond the watch tower at Eder.
22 Dok je Izrael boravio u onom kraju, ode Ruben i legne s Bilhom, priležnicom svoga oca. Sazna za to Izrael. Izrael je imao dvanaest sinova.
During the time he was living there, Reuben went and slept with Bilhah, his father's concubine, and Israel found out about it. These were the twelve sons of Jacob:
23 S Leom: Rubena, koji je Jakovljev prvorođenac, Šimuna, Levija, Judu, Jisakara i Zebuluna;
The sons of Leah: Reuben (Jacob's firstborn), Simeon, Levi, Judah, Issachar, and Zebulun.
24 s Rahelom: Josipa i Benjamina;
The sons of Rachel: Joseph and Benjamin.
25 s Bilhom, Rahelinom sluškinjom: Dana i Naftalija;
The sons of Rachel's personal maid Bilhah: Dan and Naphtali.
26 sa Zilpom, sluškinjom Leinom: Gada i Ašera. To su Jakovljevi sinovi što su mu se rodili u Padan Aramu.
The sons of Leah's personal maid Zilpah: Gad and Asher. These were the sons of Jacob, who were born to him while in Paddan-aram.
27 Jakov dođe k svome ocu Izaku u Mamru u Kirjat Arbu, to je Hebron - gdje su boravili Abraham i Izak kao pridošlice.
Jacob returned home to his father Isaac at Mamre, near Kiriath-arba (also known as Hebron), where Abraham and Isaac had lived.
28 Kad je Izaku bilo sto i osamdeset godina, umrije.
Isaac lived to be 180
29 Izak izdahne i umre, starac i godinama zasićen, te bude pridružen svojim precima. Sahrane ga njegovi sinovi, Ezav i Jakov.
when he breathed his last and died at an old age. He had lived a full life, and now he joined his forefathers in death. His sons Esau and Jacob buried him.
