Genesis 32
1 Jacob also went on his way, and the angels of God met him.
A Jakov otide svojim putem; i sretoše ga anðeli Božiji;
2 When Jacob saw them, he said, “This is the camp of God.” So he named that place Mahanaim.
A kad ih ugleda Jakov, reèe: ovo je oko Božji. I prozva ono mjesto Mahanaim.
3 Jacob sent messengers ahead of him to his brother Esau in the land of Seir, the country of Edom.
I Jakov posla pred sobom glasnike k Isavu bratu svojemu u zemlju Sir, krajinu Edomsku.
4 He instructed them, “You are to say to my master Esau, ‘Your servant Jacob says: I have been staying with Laban and have remained there until now.
I zapovjedi im govoreæi: ovako kažite gospodaru mojemu Isavu: sluga tvoj Jakov ovako kaže: bio sam došljak kod Lavana i bavio se dosad.
5 I have oxen, donkeys, flocks, menservants, and maidservants. I have sent this message to inform my master, so that I may find favor in your sight.’”
A imam volova i magaraca, ovaca i sluga i sluškinja, i poslah da javim tebi gospodaru svojemu, eda bih našao milost pred tobom.
6 When the messengers returned to Jacob, they said, “We went to your brother Esau, and now he is coming to meet you—he and four hundred men with him.”
I vratiše se glasnici k Jakovu i rekoše mu: idosmo do brata tvojega Isava, i eto on ti ide na susret s èetiri stotine momaka.
7 In great fear and distress, Jacob divided his people into two camps, as well as the flocks and herds and camels.
A Jakov se uplaši jako i zabrinu se; pa razdijeli svoje ljude i ovce i goveda i kamile u dvije èete.
8 He thought, “If Esau comes and attacks one camp, then the other camp can escape.”
I reèe: ako Isav udari na jednu èetu i razbije je, da ako druga uteèe.
9 Then Jacob declared, “O God of my father Abraham, God of my father Isaac, the LORD who told me, ‘Go back to your country and to your kindred, and I will make you prosper,’
I reèe Jakov: Bože oca mojega Avrama i Bože oca mojega Isaka, Gospode, koji si mi kazao: vrati se u zemlju svoju i u rod svoj, i ja æu ti biti dobrotvor!
10 I am unworthy of all the kindness and faithfulness You have shown Your servant. Indeed, with only my staff I came across the Jordan, but now I have become two camps.
Nijesam vrijedan tolike milosti i tolike vjere što si uèinio sluzi svojemu; jer samo sa štapom svojim prijeðoh preko Jordana, a sada sam gospodar od dvije èete.
11 Please deliver me from the hand of my brother Esau, for I am afraid that he may come and attack me and the mothers and children with me.
Izbavi me iz ruke brata mojega, iz ruke Isavove, jer se bojim da ne doðe i ubije mene i mater s djecom.
12 But You have said, ‘I will surely make you prosper, and I will make your offspring like the sand of the sea, too numerous to count.’”
A ti si kazao: zaista ja æu ti biti dobrotvor, i uèiniæu sjeme tvoje da ga bude kao pijeska morskoga, koji se ne može izbrojiti od množine.
13 Jacob spent the night there, and from what he had brought with him, he selected a gift for his brother Esau:
I zanoæi ondje onu noæ, i uze što mu doðe do ruke, da pošlje na dar Isavu bratu svojemu,
14 200 female goats, 20 male goats, 200 ewes, 20 rams,
Dvjesta koza s dvadeset jaraca, dvjesta ovaca s dvadeset ovnova,
15 30 milk camels with their young, 40 cows, 10 bulls, 20 female donkeys, and 10 male donkeys.
Trideset kamila dojilica s kamiladma, èetrdeset krava s desetoro teladi, dvadeset magarica s desetoro magaradi.
16 He entrusted them to his servants in separate herds and told them, “Go on ahead of me, and keep some distance between the herds.”
I predade ih slugama svojim, svako stado napose, i reèe slugama: idite naprijed preda mnom, ostavljajuæi dosta mjesta izmeðu jednoga stada i drugoga.
17 He instructed the one in the lead, “When my brother Esau meets you and asks, ‘To whom do you belong, where are you going, and whose animals are these before you?’
I zapovjedi prvomu govoreæi: kad sreteš Isava brata mojega, pa te zapita: èiji si? i kuda ideš? i èije je to što goniš pred sobom?
18 then you are to say, ‘They belong to your servant Jacob. They are a gift, sent to my lord Esau. And behold, Jacob is behind us.’”
A ti reci: sluge tvojega Jakova, a ovo šalje na dar gospodaru svojemu Isavu, a eto i sam ide za nama.
19 He also instructed the second, the third, and all those following behind the herds: “When you meet Esau, you are to say the same thing to him.
Tako zapovjedi i drugomu i treæemu i svijema koji iðahu za stadom, i reèe: tako kažite Isavu kad naiðete na nj.
20 You are also to say, ‘Look, your servant Jacob is right behind us.’” For he thought, “I will appease Esau with the gift that is going before me. After that I can face him, and perhaps he will accept me.”
I još kažite: eto, Jakov sluga tvoj ide za nama. Jer govoraše: ublažiæu ga darom koji ide preda mnom, pa æu mu onda vidjeti lice, da ako me lijepo primi.
21 So Jacob’s gifts went on before him, while he spent the night in the camp.
Tako otide dar naprijed, a on prenoæi onu noæ kod èete svoje.
22 During the night Jacob got up and took his two wives, his two maidservants, and his eleven sons, and crossed the ford of the Jabbok.
I po noæi usta, i uze obje žene i dvije robinje i jedanaestoro djece svoje; i prebrodi brod Javok.
23 He took them and sent them across the stream, along with all his possessions.
A pošto njih uze i prevede preko potoka, preturi i ostalo što imaše.
24 So Jacob was left all alone, and there a man wrestled with him until daybreak.
A kad osta Jakov sam, tada se jedan èovjek rvaše s njim do zore.
25 When the man saw that he could not overpower Jacob, he struck the socket of Jacob’s hip and dislocated it as they wrestled.
I kad vidje da ga ne može svladati, udari ga po zglavku u stegnu, te se Jakovu išèaši stegno iz zglavka, kad se èovjek rvaše s njim.
26 Then the man said, “Let me go, for it is daybreak.” But Jacob replied, “I will not let you go unless you bless me.”
Pa onda reèe: pusti me, zora je. A Jakov mu reèe: neæu te pustiti dokle me ne blagosloviš.
27 “What is your name?” the man asked. “Jacob,” he replied.
A èovjek mu reèe: kako ti je ime? A on odgovori: Jakov.
28 Then the man said, “Your name will no longer be Jacob, but Israel, because you have struggled with God and with men, and you have prevailed.”
Tada mu reèe: otsele se neæeš zvati Jakov, nego Izrailj; jer si se junaèki borio i s Bogom i s ljudma, i odolio si.
29 And Jacob requested, “Please tell me your name.” But he replied, “Why do you ask my name?” Then he blessed Jacob there.
A Jakov zapita i reèe: kaži mi kako je tebi ime. A on reèe: što pitaš kako mi je ime? I blagoslovi ga ondje.
30 So Jacob named the place Peniel, saying, “Indeed, I have seen God face to face, and yet my life was spared.”
I Jakov nadjede ime onomu mjestu Fanuil; jer, veli, Boga vidjeh licem k licu, i duša se moja izbavi.
31 The sun rose above him as he passed by Penuel, and he was limping because of his hip.
I sunce mu se rodi kad proðe Fanuil, i hramaše na stegno svoje.
32 Therefore to this day the Israelites do not eat the tendon which is at the socket of the hip, because the socket of Jacob’s hip was struck near that tendon.
Zato sinovi Izrailjevi ne jedu krajeva od mišiæa na zglavku u stegnu do današnjega dana, što se Jakovu povrijediše krajevi od mišiæa na zglavku u stegnu.
