Genesis 30
1 When Rachel realized she was unable to give Jacob any children she was jealous of her sister. She complained to Jacob, “I'll die if you don't give me children!”
Vidjevši Rahela da Jakovu ne rađa djece, postade zavidna svojoj sestri pa reče Jakovu: “Daj mi djecu! Inače ću svisnuti!”
2 Jacob became angry with Rachel and told her, “Am I God? Do you think I'm the one stopping you having children?”
Jakov se razljuti na Rahelu te reče. “Zar sam ja namjesto Boga koji ti je uskratio plod utrobe?”
3 “Here's my personal maid Bilhah,” Rachel replied. “Sleep with her and she can have children for me so I'll have a family too.”
A ona odgovori: “Evo moje sluškinje Bilhe: uđi k njoj, pa neka rodi na mojim koljenima, da tako i ja steknem djecu po njoj.”
4 She gave her personal maid Bilhah to him as a wife and Jacob slept with her.
Dade mu dakle svoju sluškinju Bilhu za ženu, i Jakov priđe k njoj.
5 Bilhah became pregnant and had a son for Jacob.
Bilha zače te Jakovu rodi sina.
6 Rachel said, “God has judged in my favor! He listened to me and gave me a son.” So she named him Dan.
Tada Rahela reče: “Jahve mi je dosudio pravo. Uslišao je moj glas i dao mi sina.” Stoga mu nadjenu ime Dan.
7 Rachel's personal maid Bilhah became pregnant again and had second son for Jacob.
Rahelina sluškinja Bilha opet zače i rodi Jakovu drugoga sina.
8 Rachel said, “I've had a hard struggle with my sister, but I've won.” So she named him Naphtali.
Tada Rahela reče: “Žestoko sam se borila sa sestrom, ali sam pobijedila.” Tako mu nadjenu ime Naftali.
9 Leah realized she wasn't having any more children, so she gave her personal maid Zilpah to Jacob as a wife.
A vidjevši Lea da je prestala rađati, uzme svoju sluškinju Zilpu pa je dade Jakovu za ženu.
10 Zilpah had a son for Jacob.
I kad je Leina sluškinja Zilpa rodila Jakovu sina,
11 Leah said, “I'm really fortunate!” So she named him Gad.
Lea uskliknu: “Koje sreće!” Tako mu nadjenu ime Gad.
12 Leah's personal maid Zilpah became pregnant again and had a second son for Jacob.
Leina sluškinja Zilpa rodi Jakovu i drugog sina,
13 Leah said, “I'm so happy, and the other women will say I'm happy too!” So she named him Asher.
i Lea opet uskliknu: “Blago meni! Žene će me zvati blaženom!” Tako mu nadjenu ime Ašer.
14 At the time of the wheat harvest Reuben found some mandrake plants when he was out in the fields. He took them back to his mother Leah. Rachel asked Leah, “Please give me some of the mandrakes your son found.”
Jednoga dana, u vrijeme pšenične žetve, namjeri se Ruben u polju na ljubavčice te ih donese svojoj majci Lei. I Rahela reče Lei: “Daj mi od ljubavčica svoga sina!”
15 “Aren't you satisfied with stealing my husband?” Leah replied. “Are you going to take my son's mandrakes too?” “Fine, he can sleep with you tonight if you give me some mandrakes in return,” Rachel responded.
A Lea odgovori: “Zar ti nije dosta što si mi oduzela muža pa još hoćeš da od mene uzmeš i ljubavčice moga sina?” Rahela odgovori: “Pa dobro, neka s tobom noćas leži u zamjenu za ljubavčice tvog sina.”
16 When Jacob came in from the fields that evening, Leah went out to meet him. “You have to sleep with me because I've paid for you with my son's mandrakes,” she told him. So he slept with her that night.
Kad je Jakov navečer stigao iz polja, Lea mu iziđe u susret pa reče: “Treba da dođeš k meni, jer sam te unajmila za ljubavčice moga sina.” One je noći on s njom ležao.
17 God heard Leah's request, and she became pregnant and had a fifth son for Jacob.
Bog usliša Leu; ona zače te Jakovu rodi petog sina.
18 Leah said, “The Lord has rewarded me for giving my personal maid to my husband.” So she named him Issachar.
Onda Lea reče: “Bog mi je uzvratio nagradom što sam ustupila svoju sluškinju svome mužu.” Stoga sinu nadjenu ime Jisakar.
19 Then Leah became pregnant again and had a sixth son for Jacob.
Lea opet zače i rodi Jakovu šestoga sina.
20 Leah said, “God has given me a good gift. Now my husband will honor me because I've given him six sons.” So she named him Zebulun.
Onda Lea reče: “Bog me obdari dragocjenim darom; sada će mi moj muž dati darove: tÓa rodila sam mu šest sinova.” Tako mu nadjenu ime Zebulun.
21 Later she had a daughter she named Dinah.
Zatim rodi kćer te joj nadjenu ime Dina.
22 Then God paid attention to Rachel and listened to her appeals, and helped her to have children.
Uto se Bog sjeti Rahele: Bog je usliša i otvori njezinu utrobu.
23 She became pregnant and had a son. “God has removed my disgrace,” she said.
Ona zače i rodi sina te reče: “Ukloni Bog moju sramotu!”
24 She named him Joseph, saying, “May the Lord give me an additional son.”
Nadjene mu ime Josip, rekavši: “Neka mi Jahve pridoda drugog sina!”
25 Once Rachel had given birth to Joseph, Jacob said to Laban, “Let me leave so I can return to my home and my own country.
Pošto je Rahela rodila Josipa, Jakov reče Labanu: “Pusti me da idem u svoj zavičaj!
26 Give me my wives and children because I worked for you to have them. Let me go now because you know very well how much work I've done for you.”
Daj mi moje žene za koje sam te služio i moju djecu da mogu otići: tÓa dobro znaš kako sam te služio.”
27 “Please be so kind as to stay,” Laban replied, “because I have discovered that the Lord has blessed me because of you.”
A Laban mu odgovori: “Ne idi, ako si mi prijatelj. Znam da me Jahve blagoslivljao zbog tebe.”
28 Then Laban continued, “Tell me how much to pay you and I'll give it to you.”
I nadoda: “Odredi plaću koju želiš od mene, i dat ću ti.”
29 “You certainly know how much work I've done for you, and how well your flocks have done under my care.
On mu odgovori: “Ti dobro znaš što je moja služba značila za te i kako je tvome blagu bilo sa mnom.
30 You hardly had anything before I arrived, but now you have so much! The Lord has blessed you through what I've done. When am I going to be able to provide for my own family?”
Malenkost što si je imao prije nego sam ja došao povećala se vrlo mnogo, jer kuda god sam prolazio Jahve te blagoslivljao na mojim koracima. A sad je vrijeme da poradim i za svoj dom.”
31 “Well, what do you propose I give you?” Laban asked again. “You don't have to give me anything,” Jacob replied. “If you want to do something for me, then how about this: I'll go on looking after your flocks, making sure they're fed.
On upita: “Koliko da ti platim?” Jakov odgovori: “Nemoj mi platiti ništa! Ako mi učiniš ovo, opet ću na pašu goniti i čuvati tvoje stado.
32 Let me go through your flocks today and take all the sheep that are speckled or spotted, and all the dark ones, as well as all the speckled and spotted goats. They'll be my wages.
Daj da prođem danas kroz tvoje stado i od njega izlučim svaku garavu ovcu i svaku šarenu ili napruganu kozu! Neka to bude moja plaća!
33 In the future you'll be able to prove that I've been honest. When you check my flock, any goats that don't have speckles or spots, or any sheep that aren't dark will be considered stolen from you.”
A ubuduće kad budeš svojim očima provjeravao moju naplatu, moje će poštenje biti svjedok za mene: nađe li se među mojim kozama ijedna koja ne bude šarena ili naprugana, ili među ovcama koja ne bi bila garava, neka se smatra ukradenom!”
34 “Very good,” Laban agreed. “We'll do as you say.”
Laban reče: “Dobro, neka bude kako si kazao.”
35 However, the same day Laban went and removed all the striped and spotted male goats, all the speckled and spotted female goats, and all the dark sheep. He had his sons look after them and sent them away—
Ali toga dana Laban izluči naprugane i šarene jarce i sve riđaste i šarene koze - svaku koja je na sebi imala bijelo - i sve garave ovce pa ih preda svojim sinovima.
36 a three day journey between them and Jacob, while Jacob was looking after the rest of Laban's flocks.
I odande gdje je Jakov pasao ostatak Labanova stada udalji se za koja tri dana hoda.
37 Then Jacob cut some sticks from poplar, almond, and plane trees that had white wood under the bark. He peeled off some of the bark, making the sticks look streaked with white.
A Jakov uzme zelenih mladica od topola, badema i platana; na njima izreza bijele pruge, otkrivši bjeliku na mladicama.
38 He put the sticks he'd peeled in the water troughs where the flocks came to drink because that's where they mated.
Pruće tako isprugano postavi u korita, u pojila iz kojih se stoka napajala. A kako se stoka parila kad je na vodu dolazila,
39 The flocks mated in front of the sticks and gave birth to young that were streaked, speckled, and spotted.
to su se jarci parili uz pruće, pa su koze kozile prugaste, riđaste i šarene kozliće.
40 Jacob separated all these ones out. Then he made his flock face towards those in Laban's flock that were streaked and dark. This is the way he kept his flocks apart from Laban's flock.
Tako je i ovce Jakov bio izlučio i glave im okrenuo prema prugastima ili posve garavima što su bile u Labanovu stadu. Tako je za se namicao posebna stada koja nije miješao s Labanovim stadima.
41 When the strong females were ready to breed, Jacob put the sticks in the troughs where the flocks could see them when they mated.
Osim toga, kad bi se god dobro uzrasla stoka parila, Jakov bi stavio pruće u korita, baš pred oči živine, tako da se pari pred prućem.
42 He didn't do this for the weaker females. The weaker ones went to Laban, and the strong ones went to Jacob.
Ali ga pred kržljavu marvu nije stavljao. Tako je kržljava zapadala Labana, a dobro razvijena Jakova.
43 In this way Jacob became an extremely rich man with large flocks, and many male and female slaves, camels, and donkeys.
Čovjek se tako silno obogatio, stekao mnogu stoku, sluge i sluškinje, deve i magarad.
