Postanak 48
1 Poslije nekog vremena jave Josipu: “Eno ti je otac obolio.” Nato on uzme sa sobom svoja dva sina, Manašea i Efrajima.
And it was after the things these and someone said to Joseph there! father your [is] sick and he took [the] two sons his with him Manasseh and Ephraim.
2 Kad Jakovu rekoše: “Evo ti je došao sin Josip”, Izrael skupi svoje snage i sjede na postelju.
And someone told to Jacob and he said here! son your Joseph he has come to you and he strengthened himself Israel and he sat on the bed.
3 Reče Jakov Josipu: “Bog Svemožni, El Šadaj, objavi mi se u Luzu, u zemlji kanaanskoj; blagoslov mi dade,
And he said Jacob to Joseph God Almighty he appeared to me at Luz in [the] land of Canaan and he blessed me.
4 a potom mi reče: 'Učinit ću te rodnim i mnogobrojnim, učinit ću da postaneš skup naroda, a tvome potomstvu poslije tebe dat ću ovu zemlju u posjed zauvijek.'
And he said to me here I [am] about to make fruitful you and I will multiply you and I will make you a company of peoples and I will give the land this to offspring your after you a possession of perpetuity.
5 Sad, oba tvoja sina što su ti se rodila u zemlji egipatskoj, prije nego sam ja stigao k tebi u Egipat, neka budu moji - Efrajim i Manaše neka budu moji kao i Ruben i Šimun!
And now [the] two sons your who were born to you in [the] land of Egypt until came I to you Egypt towards [belong] to me they Ephraim and Manasseh like Reuben and Simeon they will be[long] to me.
6 A djeca što su ti se rodila poslije njih neka ostanu tvoja; a u svom nasljedstvu neka se zovu po imenu svoje braće.
And offspring your whom you have fathered after them to you they will be[long] on [the] name of brothers their they will be called in inheritance their.
7 Kad sam se, naime, vraćao iz Padana, na moju žalost, tvoja majka Rahela umrije na putovanju u kanaansku zemlju, tek u maloj udaljenosti od Efrate. Sahranio sam je ondje uz put u Efratu, sadašnji Betlehem.”
And I - when came I from Paddan she died on me Rachel in [the] land of Canaan on the journey at yet a distance of land to go Ephrathah and I buried her there on [the] journey of Ephrath that [is] Beth-lehem.
8 Opazivši Izrael Josipove sinove, zapita: “Tko su ovi?”
And he saw Israel [the] sons of Joseph and he said who? [are] these.
9 Josip odgovori svome ocu: “Sinovi su to moji koje mi je Bog dao ovdje.” “Dovedi mi ih da ih blagoslovim”, reče.
And he said Joseph to father his [are] sons my they whom he has given to me God in this [place] and he said fetch them please to me so I may bless them.
10 Izraelu oči oslabile od starosti, nije vidio. Zato mu privede sinove, a on ih poljubi i zagrli.
And [the] eyes of Israel they were heavy from old age not he was able to see and he brought near them to him and he kissed them and he embraced them.
11 Potom Izrael reče Josipu: “Nisam očekivao da ću još ikada vidjeti tvoje lice; kad, evo, Bog mi dade da vidim i tvoje potomke.”
And he said Israel to Joseph to see face your not I judged and here! he has shown me God also offspring your.
12 Josip ih tada skine s njegovih koljena i duboko se, sve do zemlje, nakloni.
And he took Joseph them from with knees his and he bowed down to face his [the] ground towards.
13 Nato ih uze Josip obojicu - Efrajima svojom desnicom, Izraelu nalijevo, a Manašea svojom ljevicom, Izraelu nadesno - te ih k njemu primače.
And he took Joseph [the] two of them Ephraim at right [hand] his from [the] left of Israel and Manasseh at left [hand] his from [the] right of Israel and he brought [them] near to him.
14 Ali Izrael ispruži svoju desnicu i stavi je na Efrajimovu glavu, premda je bio mlađi, a svoju ljevicu na glavu Manašeovu - tako je držao ruke unakrst - iako je Manaše bio prvorođenac.
And he stretched out Israel right [hand] his and he put [it] on [the] head of Ephraim and he [was] the young and left [hand] his on [the] head of Manasseh he laid cross-wise hands his for Manasseh [was] the firstborn.
15 Tako je davao svoj blagoslov Josipu govoreći: “Bog, čijim su putovima hodili oci moji Abraham i Izak, Bog, koji mi je pastir bio otkako postah pa do danas,
And he blessed Joseph and he said God whom they walked about fathers my before him Abraham and Isaac God who shepherded me from duration my until the day this.
16 anđeo koji me od svakog zla izbavljao - djecu ovu neka blagoslovi! Neka se ime moje i mojih pređa Abrahama i Izaka po njima spominje! U mnoštva se mnogobrojna po zemlji razmnožili!”
The angel who has redeemed me from all harm may he bless the lads and may it be called in them name my and [the] name of fathers my Abraham and Isaac and may they multiply to abundance in [the] midst of the earth.
17 Kad je Josip vidio da je njegov otac položio desnicu na Efrajimovu glavu, njegovim se očima to učini krivo; zato posegne za rukom svoga oca da je pomakne s Efrajimove glave na glavu Manašeovu.
And he saw Joseph that he will put father his [the] hand of right his on [the] head of Ephraim and it was displeasing in view his and he grasped [the] hand of father his to remove it from on [the] head of Ephraim on [the] head of Manasseh.
18 “Ne tako, oče moj,” reče Josip svome ocu, “jer ovo je prvorođenac; zato stavi desnicu na njegovu glavu!”
And he said Joseph to father his not thus O father my for this [is] the firstborn put right [hand] your on head his.
19 Ali njegov otac to odbije rekavši: “Znam ja, sine moj, znam; i od njega će postati narod i bit će velik. Ali njegov mlađi brat bit će veći od njega, a njegovo će potomstvo biti mnoštvo.”
And he refused father his and he said I know O son my I know also he he will become a people and also he he will become great and but brother his young he will become great more than him and offspring his it will be [the] fullness of the nations.
20 Onoga ih, dakle, dana blagoslovi rekavši: “Vama nek' se Izrael blagoslivlja govoreći: Kao što je Efrajimu i Manašeu, nek' i tebi Bog učini!” Tako stavi Efrajima pred Manašea.
And he blessed them on the day that saying by you it will bless Israel saying may he make you God like Ephraim and like Manasseh and he put Ephraim before Manasseh.
21 Poslije Izrael reče Josipu: “Ja ću, evo, naskoro umrijeti; no Bog će biti s vama i opet vas dovesti u zemlju vaših otaca.
And he said Israel to Joseph here! I [am] about to die and he will be God with you and he will bring back you to [the] land of fathers your.
22 A tebi ostavljam Šekem, nešto više nego tvojoj braći, što sam ga svojim mačem i lukom osvojio od Amorejaca.”
And I I give to you a shoulder one over brothers your which I took from [the] hand of the Amorite[s] by sword my and by bow my.
