Genesis 12
1 The Lord told Abram, “Leave your country, your relatives, your family home, and travel to the country I'm going to show you.
Nebo byl řekl Hospodin Abramovi: Vyjdi z země své a z příbuznosti své, i z domu otce svého do země, kterouž ukáži tobě.
2 I will make you the ancestor of a great nation and I will bless you. I will make sure you have a great reputation and that you are a blessing to others.
A učiním tě v národ veliký, a požehnám tobě, a zvelebím jméno tvé, a budeš požehnání.
3 I will bless those who bless you; I will curse those who curse you. Everyone on earth will be blessed through you.”
Požehnám také dobrořečícím tobě, a zlořečícím tobě zlořečiti budu; ano požehnány budou v tobě všecky čeledi země.
4 So Abram left following the Lord's instructions, and Lot went with him. Abram was 75 when he left Haran.
I vyšel Abram, tak jakž mu byl mluvil Hospodin, a šel s ním Lot. (Byl pak Abram v sedmdesáti pěti letech, když vyšel z Cháran.)
5 With him went his wife Sarai, his nephew Lot, together with all the possessions they had collected and the people that had joined them in Harran. They left for the land of Canaan. When they arrived there,
A vzal Abram Sarai manželku svou, a Lota syna bratra svého, a všecko zboží své, kteréhož nabyli, i duše, kterýchž dosáhli v Cháran. A vyšedše, brali se do země Kananejské, až i přišli do ní.
6 Abram traveled on through the country as far as a place called Shechem, stopping at the oak tree of Moreh. At that time the country was occupied by Canaanites.
I prošel Abram tu zemi až k místu Sichem, to jest až k rovině More. A tehdáž Kananejští byli v zemi.
7 The Lord appeared to Abram and said, “I'm going to give this land to your descendants.” So Abram built an altar to the Lord there because that was where the Lord appeared to him.
I ukázal se Hospodin Abramovi a řekl: Semeni tvému dám zemi tuto. Tedy vzdělal tu oltář Hospodinu, kterýž se byl ukázal jemu.
8 Then he moved on to the hill country east of Bethel and set up camp there. Bethel was to the west and Ai to the east. He built an altar to the Lord there and worshiped him.
A odtud podal se k hoře, kteráž leží na východ od Bethel, kdežto rozbil stan svůj, tak že mu Bethel byl na západ, Hai pak na východ; i vzdělal tam oltář Hospodinu, a vzýval jméno Hospodinovo.
9 After that he went on his way, heading towards the Negev.
Potom hnul se Abram dále, a odebral se odtud ku poledni.
10 But the land had been hit by famine. So Abram continued on to Egypt, planning to live there because the famine was so bad.
Byl pak hlad v té zemi; protož sstoupil Abram do Egypta, aby tam byl pohostinu; nebo veliký byl hlad v té zemi.
11 As he approached Egypt and was about to cross the border, he said to his wife Sarai, “Look, I know what a beautiful woman you are.
I stalo se, že když přicházel blízko k Egyptu, řekl k Sarai manželce své: Aj, nyní znám, že jsi žena krásné tváři.
12 When the Egyptians see you, they'll say, ‘She's his wife,’ and they'll kill me but not you!
A stane se, že když tě uzří Egyptští, řeknou: To jest manželka jeho; i zabijí mne, tebe pak živé nechají.
13 Tell them you're my sister so I'll be treated well because of you, and my life will be spared for your sake.”
Prav medle, že jsi sestra má, aby mi dobře bylo příčinou tvou, a živa zůstala duše má pro tebe.
14 When Abram arrived in Egypt, the people there saw how beautiful Sarai was.
I stalo se, když všel Abram do Egypta, viděli Egyptští ženu, že krásná byla náramně.
15 Pharaoh's officials also noticed and spoke positively about her to Pharaoh. So Sarai was taken to his palace to become one of his wives.
A vidouce ji knížata Faraonova, schválili ji před ním; i vzata jest žena do domu Faraonova.
16 Pharaoh treated Abram well because of her, giving him sheep and cattle, male donkeys, male servants, female servants, female donkeys, and camels.
Kterýžto i Abramovi dobře učinil pro ni; a měl ovce a voly a osly, i služebníky a děvky, též oslice a velbloudy.
17 But the Lord caused Pharaoh and the people in his palace to suffer from terrible diseases because of Sarai, Abram's wife.
Ale Hospodin trápil Faraona ranami velikými, i dům jeho, pro Sarai manželku Abramovu.
18 So Pharaoh ordered Abram brought to him and said, “What have you done to me? Why didn't you tell me that she was your wife?
Protož povolal Farao Abrama a řekl: Cos mi to učinil? Pročežs mi neoznámil, že ona manželka tvá jest?
19 Why did you say, ‘She's my sister,’ and let me take her to become one of my wives? So here's your wife! Take her and leave!”
Proč jsi řekl: Sestra má jest? A vzal jsem ji sobě za ženu. Protož nyní, teď máš manželku svou, vezmi a jdi.
20 Pharaoh ordered his guards to expel him and his wife from the country, along with everyone with them and all their possessions.
I poručil o něm Farao mužům, a propustili ho, i manželku jeho i všecko, což měl.
