Postanak 47
1 Ode, dakle, Josip te obavijesti faraona: “Moj otac i moja braća stigoše sa svojim ovcama i govedima i sa svime što imaju iz zemlje kanaanske, i eno ih u gošenskom kraju.”
And Joseph cometh, and declareth to Pharaoh, and saith, 'My father, and my brethren, and their flock, and their herd, and all they have, have come from the land of Canaan, and lo, they [are] in the land of Goshen.'
2 I uzevši petoricu između svoje braće, uvede ih faraonu.
And out of his brethren he hath taken five men, and setteth them before Pharaoh;
3 Onda faraon zapita njegovu braću: “Čime se bavite?” Odgovore faraonu: “Tvoje su sluge stočari, baš kao što su bili naši preci.
and Pharaoh saith unto his brethren, 'What [are] your works?' and they say unto Pharaoh, 'Thy servants [are] feeders of a flock, both we and our fathers;'
4 Došli smo da potražimo kratak boravak u ovoj zemlji”, rekoše faraonu, “jer je nestalo paše za stada tvojih slugu, strašna glad pritište kanaansku zemlju. Dopusti da se tvoje sluge nastane u gošenskom kraju.”
and they say unto Pharaoh, 'To sojourn in the land we have come, for there is no pasture for the flock which thy servants have, for grievous [is] the famine in the land of Canaan; and now, let thy servants, we pray thee, dwell in the land of Goshen.'
5 [5a] Faraon reče Josipu: [6b] “Neka se, dakle, nastane u gošenskom kraju. A ako znaš da među njima ima prikladnih, postavi ih za nadglednike moga osobnog blaga.” [5b] Tako, kad Jakov i njegovi sinovi stigoše u Egipat i kad faraon, kralj egipatski, to ču, reče Josipu: “Budući da su tvoj otac i tvoja braća došli k tebi,
And Pharaoh speaketh unto Joseph, saying, 'Thy father and thy brethren have come unto thee:
6 [6a] egipatska ti je zemlja na raspolaganju: smjesti svoga oca i svoju braću u najboljem kraju.”
the land of Egypt is before thee; in the best of the land cause thy father and thy brethren to dwell — they dwell in the land of Goshen, and if thou hast known, and there are among them men of ability, then thou hast set them heads over the cattle I have.'
7 Josip onda dovede svoga oca Jakova faraonu. Jakov blagoslovi faraona.
And Joseph bringeth in Jacob his father, and causeth him to stand before Pharaoh; and Jacob blesseth Pharaoh.
8 A faraon upita Jakova: “Koliko ti je godina?”
And Pharaoh saith unto Jacob, 'How many [are] the days of the years of thy life?'
9 Jakov odgovori faraonu: “Godina moga lutalačkog življenja ima stotina i trideset. Malo ih je i nesretne su bile godine moga života; ne dostižu brojem godine življenja na zemlji mojih otaca.”
And Jacob saith unto Pharaoh, 'The days of the years of my sojournings [are] an hundred and thirty years; few and evil have been the days of the years of my life, and they have not reached the days of the years of the life of my fathers, in the days of their sojournings.'
10 Poslije toga Jakov se oprosti s faraonom i ode od njega.
And Jacob blesseth Pharaoh, and goeth out from before Pharaoh.
11 Tako Josip nastani svoga oca i svoju braću davši im u vlasništvo najljepši kraj egipatske zemlje, u kraju Ramsesovu, kako je faraon naredio.
And Joseph settleth his father and his brethren, and giveth to them a possession in the land of Egypt, in the best of the land, in the land of Rameses, as Pharaoh commanded;
12 A Josip opskrbi hranom svoga oca, svoju braću i svu očevu obitelj sve do najmanjega.
and Joseph nourisheth his father, and his brethren, and all the house of his father [with] bread, according to the mouth of the infants.
13 Nigdje nije bilo hrane jer je pritisla strašna glad: izmuči ona i zemlju egipatsku i zemlju kanaansku.
And there is no bread in all the land, for the famine [is] very grievous, and the land of Egypt and the land of Canaan are feeble because of the famine;
14 Josip pobra sav novac što se nalazio u zemlji egipatskoj i zemlji kanaanskoj u zamjenu za žito koje se prodavalo i odnese novac u faraonov dvor.
and Joseph gathereth all the silver that is found in the land of Egypt, and in the land of Canaan, for the corn that they are buying, and Joseph bringeth the silver into the house of Pharaoh.
15 Kad je nestalo novca u zemlji egipatskoj i zemlji kanaanskoj, svi Egipćani dođu k Josipu te mu reknu: “Daj nam kruha! Zašto da pomremo pred tvojim očima? Novca više nema.”
And the silver is consumed out of the land of Egypt, and out of the land of Canaan, and all the Egyptians come in unto Joseph, saying, 'Give to us bread — why do we die before thee, though the money hath ceased?'
16 Josip odgovori: “Predajte svoju stoku pa ću vam dati žita u zamjenu za stoku kad je novca nestalo.”
and Joseph saith, 'Give your cattle; and I give to you for your cattle, if the money hath ceased.'
17 Tako su oni dovodili svoju stoku Josipu, a Josip im davaše kruh u zamjenu za konje, za sitnu i krupnu stoku i za magarad. Tako ih je one godine opskrbljivao kruhom u zamjenu za sve njihovo blago.
And they bring in their cattle unto Joseph, and Joseph giveth to them bread, for the horses, and for the cattle of the flock, and for the cattle of the herd, and for the asses; and he tendeth them with bread, for all their cattle, during that year.
18 Kad je ona godina prošla, dođu k njemu i druge godine te mu reknu: “Ne možemo sakriti od svoga gospodara: novca je nestalo, blaga su već ustupljena gospodaru; drugo ništa ne preostaje da gospodaru ustupimo nego sebe i svoje oranice.
And that year is finished, and they come in unto him on the second year, and say to him, 'We do not hide from my lord, that since the money hath been finished, and possession of the cattle [is] unto my lord, there hath not been left before my lord save our bodies, and our ground;
19 Zašto da uništimo na tvoje oči i sebe i svoje zemlje? Uzmi i nas i naše zemlje u zakup za kruh, i tako ćemo zajedno sa svojom zemljom postati faraonovi kmetovi; daj sjemena da preživimo: da ne izginemo i da nam oranice ne postanu pustoš!”
why do we die before thine eyes, both we and our ground? buy us and our ground for bread, and we and our ground are servants to Pharaoh; and give seed, and we live, and die not, and the ground is not desolate.'
20 Tako Josip steče faraonu u posjed sve egipatske oranice, jer je svaki Egipćanin, kako ih pritisnu glad, prodao svoje njive. Tako je zemlja postala faraonovo vlasništvo,
And Joseph buyeth all the ground of Egypt for Pharaoh, for the Egyptians have sold each his field, for the famine hath been severe upon them, and the land becometh Pharaoh's;
21 a narod od jednog kraja Egipta do drugoga njegovim robljem.
as to the people he hath removed them to cities from the [one] end of the border of Egypt even unto its [other] end.
22 Jedino nije preuzeo svećeničkih imanja, jer je faraon davao svećenicima određeni dio, i tako su živjeli od prihoda što im ga je faraon davao. Stoga nisu prodali svojih imanja.
Only the ground of the priests he hath not bought, for the priests have a portion from Pharaoh, and they have eaten their portion which Pharaoh hath given to them, therefore they have not sold their ground.
23 Onda Josip reče svijetu: “Budući da sam danas za faraona prekupio i vas i vašu zemlju, evo vam sjeme pa zasijte zemlju.
And Joseph saith unto the people, 'Lo, I have bought you to-day and your ground for Pharaoh; lo, seed for you, and ye have sown the ground,
24 A kad bude pobiranje ljetine, faraonu ćete davati jednu petinu, dok će četiri petine ostajati vama: za zasijavanje polja, za hranu vama i onima koji su u vašim domovima i za hranu vašoj djeci.”
and it hath come to pass in the increases, that ye have given a fifth to Pharaoh, and four of the parts are for yourselves, for seed of the field, and for your food, and for those who [are] in your houses, and for food for your infants.'
25 Oni odgovore: “Život si nam spasio! Mi smo zahvalni svome gospodaru što možemo biti faraonovi robovi.”
And they say, 'Thou hast revived us; we find grace in the eyes of my lord, and have been servants to Pharaoh;'
26 Tako Josip napravi za Egipat zemljišni zakon koji i danas vrijedi: petina pripada faraonu; jedino svećenička imanja nisu prešla faraonu.
and Joseph setteth it for a statute unto this day, concerning the ground of Egypt, [that] Pharaoh hath a fifth; only the ground of the priests alone hath not become Pharaoh's.
27 Izraelci se nastaniše u zemlji egipatskoj, u kraju gošenskom; u njem stekoše vlasništvo; bijahu rodni i broj im se veoma umnoži.
And Israel dwelleth in the land of Egypt, in the land of Goshen, and they have possession in it, and are fruitful, and multiply exceedingly;
28 U zemlji egipatskoj poživje Jakov sedamnaest godina. Tako je duljina Jakovljeva života iznosila sto četrdeset i sedam godina.
and Jacob liveth in the land of Egypt seventeen years, and the days of Jacob, the years of his life, are an hundred and forty and seven years.
29 A kad se približi vrijeme Izraelu da umre, pozva svoga sina Josipa te mu reče: “Ako mi želiš ugoditi, stavi svoju ruku pod moje stegno kao jamstvo svoje odanosti meni: nemoj me sahraniti u Egiptu!
And the days of Israel are near to die, and he calleth for his son, for Joseph, and saith to him, 'If, I pray thee, I have found grace in thine eyes, put, I pray thee, thy hand under my thigh, and thou hast done with me kindness and truth; bury me not, I pray thee, in Egypt,
30 Kad legnem dolje sa svojim ocima, prenesi me iz Egipta gore i sahrani me u njihovu grobnicu!” “Učinit ću kako si rekao”, odgovori.
and I have lain with my fathers, and thou hast borne me out of Egypt, and buried me in their burying-place.' And he saith, 'I — I do according to thy word;'
31 “Zakuni mi se!” - reče. I on mu se zakle. Tada se Izrael duboko prignu na uzglavlju.
and he saith, 'Swear to me;' and he sweareth to him, and Israel boweth himself on the head of the bed.
