Genesis 29
1 And so Jacob, setting out, arrived in the eastern land.
Tada se podiže Jakov i otide u zemlju istoènu.
2 And he saw a well in a field, and also three flocks of sheep reclining near it. For the animals were watered from it, and its mouth was closed with a great stone.
I obziruæi se ugleda studenac u polju; i gle, tri stada ovaca ležahu kod njega, jer se na onom studencu pojahu stada, a veliki kamen bijaše studencu na vratima.
3 And the custom was, when all the sheep were gathered together, to roll away the stone. And when the flocks had been refreshed, they placed it over the mouth of the well again.
Ondje se skupljahu sva stada, te pastiri odvaljivahu kamen s vrata studencu i pojahu stada, i poslije opet privaljivahu kamen na vrata studencu na njegovo mjesto.
4 And he said to the shepherds, “Brothers, where are you from?” And they answered. “From Haran.”
I Jakov im reèe: braæo, odakle ste? Rekoše: iz Harana smo.
5 And questioning them, he said, “Do you know Laban, the son of Nahor?” They said, “We know him.”
A on im reèe: poznajete li Lavana sina Nahorova? Oni rekoše: poznajemo.
6 He said, “Is he well?” “He is very well,” they said. “And behold, his daughter Rachel approaches with his flock.”
On im reèe: je li zdrav? Rekoše: jest, i evo Rahilje kæeri njegove, gdje ide sa stadom.
7 And Jacob said, “There is still much daylight remaining, and it is not time to return the flocks to the sheepfold. Give the sheep to drink first, and then lead them back to pasture.”
I on reèe: eto još je rano, niti je vrijeme vraæati stoku; napojte stoku pa idite i pasite je.
8 They responded, “We cannot, until all the animals are gathered together and we remove the stone from the mouth of the well, so that we may water the flocks.”
A oni rekoše: ne možemo, dokle se ne skupe sva stada, da odvalimo kamen s vrata studencu, onda æemo napojiti stoku.
9 They were still speaking, and behold, Rachel arrived with her father’s sheep; for she pastured the flock.
Dok on još govoraše s njima, doðe Rahilja sa stadom oca svojega, jer ona pasijaše ovce.
10 When Jacob had seen her, and he realized that she was his maternal first cousin, and that these were the sheep of his uncle Laban, he removed the stone which closed the well.
A kad Jakov vidje Rahilju kæer Lavana ujaka svojega, i stado Lavana ujaka svojega, pristupi Jakov i odvali kamen studencu s vrata, i napoji stado Lavana ujaka svojega.
11 And having watered the flock, he kissed her. And lifting up his voice, he wept.
I poljubi Jakov Rahilju, i povikavši zaplaka se.
12 And he revealed to her that he was a brother of her father, and the son of Rebekah. And so, hurrying, she announced it to her father.
I kaza se Jakov Rahilji da je rod ocu njezinu i da je sin Reveèin; a ona otrèa te javi ocu svojemu.
13 And when he had heard that Jacob, his sister’s son, had arrived, he ran to meet him. And embracing him, and kissing him heartily, he brought him into his house. But when he had heard the reasons for his journey,
A kad Lavan èu za Jakova sina sestre svoje, istrèa mu na susret, i zagrli ga i poljubi, i uvede u svoju kuæu. I on pripovjedi Lavanu sve ovo.
14 he responded, “You are my bone and my flesh.” And after the days of one month were completed,
A Lavan mu reèe: ta ti si kost moja i tijelo moje. I osta kod njega cio mjesec dana.
15 he said to him: “Though you are my brother, will you serve me for nothing? Tell me what wages you would accept.”
Tada reèe Lavan Jakovu: zar badava da mi služiš, što si mi rod? Kaži mi šta æe ti biti plata?
16 In truth, he had two daughters: the name of the elder was Leah; and truly the younger was called Rachel.
A Lavan imaše dvije kæeri: starijoj bješe ime Lija, a mlaðoj Rahilja.
17 But while Leah was bleary-eyed, Rachel had an elegant appearance and was attractive to behold.
I u Lije bjehu kvarne oèi, a Rahilja bješe lijepa stasa i lijepa lica.
18 And Jacob, loving her, said, “I will serve you for seven years, for your younger daughter Rachel.”
I Jakovu omilje Rahilja, te reèe: služiæu ti sedam godina za Rahilju, mlaðu kæer tvoju.
19 Laban responded, “It is better that I give her to you than to another man; remain with me.”
A Lavan mu reèe: bolje tebi da je dam nego drugom; ostani kod mene.
20 Therefore, Jacob served for seven years for Rachel. And these seemed like only a few days, because of the greatness of love.
I otsluži Jakov za Rahilju sedam godina, i uèiniše mu se kao nekoliko dana, jer je ljubljaše.
21 And he said to Laban, “Give my wife to me. For now the time has been fulfilled, so that I may go in to her.”
I reèe Jakov Lavanu: daj mi ženu, jer mi se navrši vrijeme, da legnem s njom.
22 And he, having called a great crowd of his friends to the feast, agreed to the marriage.
I sazva Lavan sve ljude iz onoga mjesta i uèini gozbu.
23 And at night, he brought in his daughter Leah to him,
A uveèe uze Liju kæer svoju i uvede je k Jakovu, i on leže s njom.
24 giving his daughter a handmaid named Zilpah. After Jacob had gone in to her, according to custom, when morning had arrived, he saw Leah.
I Lavan dade Zelfu robinju svoju Liji kæeri svojoj da joj bude robinja.
25 And he said to his father-in-law, “What is it that you intended to do? Did I not serve you for Rachel? Why have you deceived me?”
A kad bi ujutru, gle, ono bješe Lija; te reèe Jakov Lavanu: šta si mi to uèinio? ne služim li za Rahilju kod tebe? zašto si me prevario?
26 Laban responded, “It is not the practice in this place to give the younger in marriage first.
A Lavan mu reèe: ne biva u našem mjestu da se uda mlaða prije starije.
27 Complete a week of days with this mating. And then I will give this one to you also, for the service that you will provide to me for another seven years.”
Navrši nedjelju dana s tom, pa æemo ti dati i drugu za službu što æeš služiti kod mene još sedam godina drugih.
28 He agreed to his pleading. And after the week had passed, he took Rachel as a wife.
Jakov uèini tako, i navrši s njom nedjelju dana, pa mu dade Lavan Rahilju kæer svoju za ženu.
29 To her, the father had given Bilhah as her servant.
I dade Lavan Rahilji kæeri svojoj robinju svoju Valu da joj bude robinja.
30 And, having at last obtained the marriage he desired, he preferred the love of the latter before the former, and he served with him another seven years.
I tako leže Jakov s Rahiljom; i voljaše Rahilju nego Liju, i stade služiti kod Lavana još sedam drugih godina.
31 But the Lord, seeing that he despised Leah, opened her womb, but her sister remained barren.
A Gospod videæi da Jakov ne mari za Liju, otvori njojzi matericu, a Rahilja osta nerotkinja.
32 Having conceived, she gave birth to a son, and she called his name Reuben, saying: “The Lord saw my humiliation; now my husband will love me.”
I Lija zatrudnje, i rodi sina, i nadjede mu ime Ruvim, govoreæi: Gospod pogleda na jade moje, sada æe me ljubiti muž moj.
33 And again she conceived and bore a son, and she said, “Because the Lord heard that I was treated with contempt, he has also given this one to me.” And she called his name Simeon.
I opet zatrudnje, i rodi sina, i reèe: Gospod èu da sam prezrena, pa mi dade i ovoga. I nadjede mu ime Simeun.
34 And she conceived a third time, and she gave birth to another son, and she said: “Now likewise my husband will unite with me, because I have borne him three sons.” And because of this, she called his name Levi.
I opet zatrudnje, i rodi sina, i reèe: da ako se sada veæ priljubi k meni muž moj, kad mu rodih tri sina. Zato mu nadješe ime Levije.
35 A fourth time she conceived and bore a son, and she said, “Only now will I confess to the Lord.” And for this reason, she called him Judah. And she ceased from child-bearing.
I zatrudnje opet, i rodi sina, i reèe: sada æu hvaliti Gospoda. Zato mu nadjede ime Juda; i presta raðati.
