Genesis 31
1 Jacob found out that Laban's sons were saying, “Jacob has taken everything that belonged to our father. All the wealth he has actually came from our father.”
А Јаков чу где синови Лаванови говоре: Јаков узе све што беше нашег оца, и од оног што беше нашег оца стече све ово благо.
2 Jacob also noticed that Laban was treating him differently to the way he had before.
И виде Јаков где лице Лаваново није према њему као пре.
3 The Lord told Jacob, “Go back to the country of your forefathers, to your family home. I will be with you.”
И Господ рече Јакову: Врати се у земљу отаца својих и у род свој, и ја ћу бити с тобом.
4 Jacob sent for Rachel and Leah, telling them to come and meet him out in the fields where he was with his flock.
И пославши Јаков дозва Рахиљу и Лију у поље к стаду свом.
5 “I've noticed that your father is treating me differently to the way he did before,” he told them. “But the God of my father will be with me.
И рече им: Видим где лице оца вашег није према мени као пре; али је Бог оца мог био са мном.
6 You both know very well how hard I worked for your father.
И ви знате да сам служио оцу вашем како сам год могао;
7 But he's been cheating me—he's reduced my wages ten times! However, God hasn't let him hurt me.
А отац ме је ваш варао и мењао ми плату десет пута; али му Бог не даде да ме оштети;
8 If he said, ‘You can have the speckled ones as your wages,’ then the whole flock had speckled young. If he said, ‘You can have the streaked ones as your wages,’ then the whole flock had streaked young.
Кад он рече: Шта буде шарено нека ти је плата, онда се младило све шарено; а кад рече: С белегом шта буде нека ти је плата, онда се младило све с белегом.
9 This is how God took your father's livestock and gave them to me.
Тако Бог узе стоку оцу вашем и даде је мени;
10 During the time the flock was breeding I had a dream where I saw that the male goats mating with the flock were all streaked, speckled, or spotted.
Јер кад се упаљиваше стока, подигох очи своје и видех у сну, а то овнови и јарци што скачу на овце и козе беху шарени, с белегама прутастим и коластим.
11 Then in the dream the angel of the Lord spoke to me and said, ‘Jacob!’ I replied, ‘I'm here.’
А анђео Господњи рече ми у сну: Јакове! А ја одговорих: Ево ме.
12 He told me, ‘Take a look and you'll see that all the male goats mating with the flock are streaked, speckled or spotted, for I've been watching everything that Laban has been doing to you.
А он рече: Подигни сад очи своје и гледај, овнови и јарци што скачу на овце и козе, шарени су, с белегама прутастим и коластим; јер видех све што ти чини Лаван.
13 I am the God of Bethel, where you poured olive oil on the stone pillar and made a solemn promise to me. Now get ready to leave this land and go back to your homeland.’”
Ја сам Бог од Ветиља, где си прелио камен и учинио ми завет; устани сада и иди из ове земље, и врати се на постојбину своју.
14 “There's nothing for us to inherit from our father's estate anyway,” Rachel and Leah replied.
Тада одговори Рахиља и Лија, и рекоше му: Еда ли још имамо какав део и наследство у дому оца свог?
15 “He treats us like foreigners because he sold us to you, and now he's spent all that money.
Није ли нас држао као туђинке кад нас је продао? Па је још и наше новце једнако јео.
16 All the wealth that God has taken from him belongs to us and our children, so do whatever God has told you to do!”
Јер све ово благо што узе Господ оцу нашем, наше је и наше деце. Зато чини све што ти је Господ казао.
17 So Jacob got ready. He helped his children and his wives onto the camels,
И подиже се Јаков, и метну децу своју и жене своје на камиле;
18 and drove all his livestock in front of him. He took with him all his possessions and livestock he'd gained during his time in Paddan-aram, and left to go back to his father in the country of Canaan.
И одведе сву стоку своју и све благо што беше стекао, стоку коју беше стекао у Падан-Араму, и пође к Исаку оцу свом у земљу хананску.
19 While Laban was away from home shearing his sheep, Rachel stole the household idols that belonged to her father.
А Лаван беше отишао да стриже овце своје; и Рахиља украде идоле оцу свом.
20 Jacob also deceived Laban the Aramean by not informing him that he was going to run away.
И Јаков отиде крадом од Лавана Сирина не јавивши му да хоће да иде.
21 So Jacob left in a hurry with everything he had, crossed the Euphrates River, and headed towards the hill country of Gilead.
И побеже са свим благом својим, и подиже се те пређе преко воде, и упути се ка гори Галаду.
22 Three days later Laban found out that Jacob had run away.
А трећи дан јавише Лавану да је побегао Јаков.
23 Taking some of his relatives with him, he chased after Jacob and caught up with him seven days later in the hill country of Gilead.
И узе са собом браћу своју, и пође за њим у потеру, и за седам дана стиже га на гори Галаду.
24 But during the night God came to Laban in a dream and told him, “Watch what you say to Jacob. Don't try to persuade him to come back, and don't threaten him either.”
Али Бог дође Лавану Сирину ноћу у сну, и рече му: Чувај се да не говориш с Јаковом ни лепо ни ружно.
25 Jacob had set up his tents in the hill country of Gilead when Laban caught up with him, so Laban and his relatives did the same.
И стиже Лаван Јакова; а Јаков беше разапео шатор свој на гори, па и Лаван такође разапе свој с браћом својом на гори Галаду.
26 “Why did you deceive me like this?” Laban asked Jacob. “You carried off my daughters as if they were some prisoners captured by the sword!
И Лаван рече Јакову: Шта учини те крадом побеже од мене и одведе кћери моје као на мач отете?
27 Why did you run away in secret, trying to trick me? Why didn't you come and tell me? I would have given you a good send-off, a celebration with singing and the music of tambourines and lyres.
Зашто тајно побеже и крадом отиде од мене? Нити ми рече да те испратим с весељем и с песмама, с бубњевима и гуслама?
28 You didn't even let me kiss my grandchildren and daughters goodbye! You've really acted stupidly!
Нити ми даде да изљубим синове своје и кћери своје? Лудо си радио.
29 I could really punish you badly, but the God of your father spoke to me last night and told me, ‘Watch what you say to Jacob. Don't try to persuade him to come back, and don't threaten him either.’
Могао бих вам досадити; али Бог оца вашег ноћас ми рече говорећи: Чувај се да не говориш с Јаковом ни лепо ни ружно.
30 Clearly you wanted to leave and go back to your family home, but why did you have to steal my idols?”
Иди дакле кад си се тако ужелео куће оца свог; али зашто украде богове моје?
31 “I ran away because I was afraid,” Jacob explained to Laban. “I was worried that you would take your daughters from me by force.
А Јаков одговори и рече: Бојах се и мишљах хоћеш силом отети кћери своје од мене.
32 As for your idols, anyone you find who has them will die. You can search everything in the presence of our relatives, and if you find I have anything that belongs to you, you can take it.” (Jacob didn't know that Rachel had stolen the household idols.)
А богове своје у кога нађеш, онај нека не живи више; пред нашом браћом тражи шта је твоје у мене, па узми. Јер Јаков није знао да их је украла Рахиља.
33 Laban searched the tents of Jacob, Leah, and the two personal maids, but didn't find anything. He left Leah's tent and went into Rachel's tent.
И уђе Лаван у шатор Јаковљев и у шатор Лијин и у шатор двеју робиња, и не нађе их; и изашав из шатора Лијина уђе у шатор Рахиљин.
34 Rachel had put the household idols in a camel's saddlebag and was sitting on it. Laban carefully searched the whole tent but couldn't find them.
А Рахиља узе идоле и сакри их под самар камиле своје и седе озго; и Лаван пипаше по целом шатору, и не нађе.
35 She said to her father, “Sir, please don't get upset with me for not standing up in your presence, but I have my period.” He looked everywhere but didn't find the idols.
А она рече оцу свом: Немој се срдити, господару, што ти не могу устати, јер ми је шта у жена бива. Траживши дакле не нађе идоле своје.
36 Jacob got angry with Laban and confronted him, saying, “What crime am I guilty of? What wrong have I done to you that you've come hunting me down?
И Јаков се расрди, и стаде корити Лавана, и говорећи рече му: Шта сам учинио, шта сам скривио, те си ме тако жестоко терао?
37 You've searched through all my possessions. Did you find anything belonging to you? If you did, bring it out here before my relatives and yours so they can decide who's right!
Пипао си сав пртљаг мој, па шта си нашао из своје куће? Дај овамо пред моју и своју браћу, нека расуде између нас двојице.
38 I've worked for you for these past twenty years. During that time none of your sheep and goats miscarried, and I haven't eaten a single ram from your flock.
Ево двадесет година бих код тебе: овце твоје и козе твоје не јаловише се, а овнова из стада твог не једох.
39 If any of them were killed by wild animals, I never even brought you the carcass to prove the loss—I bore the loss myself. But you on the other hand always made me compensate you for any animals that were stolen, whether at night or in broad daylight.
Шта би зверје заклало нисам ти доносио, сам сам подмиривао; од мене си искао што би ми било украдено дању или ноћу.
40 Whether it was sweating in the heat of the day, or freezing in the cold of the night when I couldn't sleep, I went on working for you for twenty years in your home.
Дању ме убијаше врућина а ноћу мраз; и сан ми не падаше на очи.
41 I worked fourteen years for your two daughters, and six more years with your flocks. You reduced my wages ten times!
Тако ми је био двадесет година у твојој кући; служио сам ти четрнаест година за две кћери твоје и шест година за стоку твоју, и плату си ми мењао десет пута.
42 If it weren't for the God of my father, the God of Abraham, the awesome God of Isaac, who took care of me, you would have dismissed me with nothing. But God saw my suffering, how hard I worked, and he condemned you last night.”
Да није Бог оца мог, Бог Аврамов, и страх Исаков био са мном, би ме зацело отпустио празна. Али је Бог видео невољу моју и труд руку мојих, па те укори ноћас.
43 Laban replied, “These are my daughters and these are my children and these are my flocks! In fact, everything you see here is mine! However, what can I do now about my daughters and their children?
А Лаван одговори Јакову и рече: Ове су кћери моје кћери, и ови су синови моји синови, и ова стока моја стока, и шта год видиш све је моје; па шта бих учинио данас кћерима својим или синовима њиховим које родише?
44 So let's make a solemn agreement between you and I, and it will be a witness to our mutual commitment.”
Него хајде да ухватимо веру, ја и ти, да буде сведочанство између мене и тебе.
45 Jacob took a stone and set it upright as a pillar.
И Јаков узе камен и утврди га за спомен.
46 Then he told his relatives, “Go and collect some stones.” They all made a pile of stones and then sat beside it to eat a meal.
И рече Јаков браћи својој; накупите камења. И накупише камења и сложише на гомилу, и једоше на гомили.
47 Laban called it Jegar-sahadutha, while Jacob called it Galeed.
И Лаван га назва Јегар-Сахадут, а Јаков га назва Галед.
48 Laban announced, “This pile of stone serves as a witness between me and you.” This is why it was called Galeed.
И рече Лаван: Ова гомила нека буде сведок између мене и тебе данас. Зато се прозва Галед.
49 It was also called Mizpah, for as Laban said, “May the Lord keep a close eye on both of us when we're not together.
А прозва се и Миспа, јер рече Лаван: Нека Господ гледа између мене и тебе, кад не узможемо видети један другог.
50 If you treat my daughters badly or marry more wives in addition to them, God will see what you do even if no one else finds out!”
Ако уцвелиш кћери моје и ако узмеш жене преко мојих кћери, неће човек бити између нас него гле Бог сведок између мене и тебе.
51 Then Laban told Jacob, “Look at this pile of stones and this pillar that I have set up as a memorial of the agreement between you and me.
И још рече Лаван Јакову: Гледај ову гомилу и гледај овај споменик, који подигох између себе и тебе.
52 They also act as a witness to our solemn promises to each other: I will not come past them to attack you; and you will not come past them to attack me.
Сведок је ова гомила и сведок је овај споменик, да ни ја нећу прећи преко ове гомиле к теби ни ти к мени да нећеш прећи преко ове гомиле и споменика овог на зло.
53 May the God of Abraham and the God of Nahor—the God of our forefathers—be the one to judge between us in any dispute.” Jacob in turn made his solemn promise in the name of the awesome God of his father Isaac.
Бог Аврамов и богови Нахорови, богови оца њиховог, нека суде међу нама. А Јаков се закле страхом оца свог Исака.
54 Then he offered a sacrifice on the mountain and invited all his relatives to eat a meal there. They spent the night on the mountain.
И Јаков принесе жртву на гори, и сазва браћу своју на вечеру; и једоше па ноћише на гори.
55 Laban got up early in the morning and kissed his grandchildren and his daughters goodbye. He blessed them, and then left to go back home.
А ујутру рано уста Лаван, и изљуби своју унучад и кћери своје, и благослови их, па отиде, и врати се у своје место.
