Genesis 12
1 Now the Lord said to Abram, Go out from your country and from your family and from your father's house, into the land to which I will be your guide:
И рече Господ Авраму: Иди из земље своје и од рода свог и из дома оца свог у земљу коју ћу ти ја показати.
2 And I will make of you a great nation, blessing you and making your name great; and you will be a blessing:
И учинићу од тебе велик народ, и благословићу те, и име твоје прославићу, и ти ћеш бити благослов.
3 To them who are good to you will I give blessing, and on him who does you wrong will I put my curse: and you will become a name of blessing to all the families of the earth.
Благословићу оне који тебе узблагосиљају, и проклећу оне који тебе успроклињу; и у теби ће бити благословена сва племена на земљи.
4 So Abram went as the Lord had said to him, and Lot went with him: Abram was seventy-five years old when he went away from Haran.
Тада пође Аврам, као што му каза Господ, и с њим пође Лот. А беше Авраму седамдесет и пет година кад пође из Харана.
5 And Abram took Sarai, his wife, and Lot, his brother's son, and all their goods and the servants which they had got in Haran, and they went out to go to the land of Canaan.
И узе Аврам Сару жену своју и Лота сина брата свог са свим благом које беху стекли и с душама које беху добили у Харану; и пођоше у земљу хананску, и дођоше у њу.
6 And Abram went through the land till he came to Shechem, to the holy tree of Moreh. At that time, the Canaanites were still living in the land.
И пође Аврам ту земљу до места Сихема и до равнице морешке; а беху тада Хананеји у тој земљи.
7 And the Lord came to Abram, and said, I will give all this land to your seed; then Abram made an altar there to the Lord who had let himself be seen by him.
И јави се Господ Авраму и рече: Твом семену даћу земљу ову. И Аврам начини онде жртвеник Господу, који му се јавио.
8 And moving on from there to the mountain on the east of Beth-el, he put up his tent, having Beth-el on the west and Ai on the east: and there he made an altar and gave worship to the name of the Lord.
После отиде оданде на брдо, које је према истоку од Ветиља, и онде разапе шатор свој, те му Ветиљ беше са запада а Гај с истока; и онде начини Господу жртвеник, и призва име Господње.
9 And he went on, journeying still to the South.
Оданде отиде Аврам даље идући на југ.
10 And because there was little food to be had in that land, he went down into Egypt.
Али наста глад у оној земљи, те Аврам сиђе у Мисир да се онде склони; јер глад беше велика у оној земљи.
11 Now when he came near to Egypt, he said to Sarai, his wife, Truly, you are a fair woman and beautiful to the eye;
А кад се приближи да већ уђе у Мисир, рече Сари жени својој: Гле, знам да си жена лепа у лицу.
12 And I am certain that when the men of Egypt see you, they will say, This is his wife: and they will put me to death and keep you.
Зато кад те виде Мисирци рећи ће: Ово му је жена. Па ће ме убити, а тебе ће оставити у животу.
13 Say, then, that you are my sister, and so it will be well with me because of you, and my life will be kept safe on your account.
Него хајде кажи да си ми сестра, те ће мени бити добро тебе ради и остаћу у животу уз тебе.
14 And so it was that when Abram came into Egypt, the men of Egypt, looking on the woman, saw that she was fair.
И кад дође Аврам у Мисир, видеше Мисирци жену да је врло лепа.
15 And Pharaoh's great men, having seen her, said words in praise of her to Pharaoh, and she was taken into Pharaoh's house.
И видеше је кнезови Фараонови, и хвалише је пред Фараоном. И узеше је у двор Фараонов.
16 And because of her, he was good to Abram, and he had sheep and oxen and asses, and men-servants and women-servants, and camels.
И он чињаше добро Авраму ње ради, те имаше оваца и говеда и магараца и слуга и слушкиња и магарица и камила.
17 And the Lord sent great troubles on Pharaoh's house because of Sarai, Abram's wife.
Али Господ пусти велика зла на Фараона и на дом његов ради Саре жене Аврамове.
18 Then Pharaoh sent for Abram, and said, What have you done to me? why did you not say that she was your wife?
Тада дозва Фараон Аврама и рече му: Шта ми то учини? Зашто ми ниси казао да ти је жена?
19 Why did you say that she was your sister? so that I took her for my wife: now, take your wife and go on your way.
Зашто си казао: Сестра ми је? Те је узех за жену. Сад ето ти жене, узми је, па иди.
20 And Pharaoh gave orders to his men, and they sent him on his way, with his wife and all he had.
И Фараон заповеди људима за њ, те га испратише и жену његову и шта год имаше.
