Genesis 12
1 Now God had said to Abram, "Go out from your country, and from your relatives, and from your father's house, to the land that I will show you.
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. And I will bless you and make 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 And I will bless those who bless you, and I will curse those who treat you with contempt, and through you all the families of the earth will be blessed."
Благословићу оне који тебе узблагосиљају, и проклећу оне који тебе успроклињу; и у теби ће бити благословена сва племена на земљи.
4 So Abram left, as God had told him, and Lot went with him. Abram was seventy-five years old when he departed 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 Abram took Sarai his wife, Lot his brother's son, and all their possessions that they had accumulated, and the people whom they had acquired in Haran, and they left to go to the land of Canaan. And they came 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 passed through the land to the place of Shechem, to the oak of Moreh. At that time the Canaanites were in the land.
И пође Аврам ту земљу до места Сихема и до равнице морешке; а беху тада Хананеји у тој земљи.
7 Then God appeared to Abram and said to him, "I will give this land to your offspring." He built an altar there God, who appeared to him.
И јави се Господ Авраму и рече: Твом семену даћу земљу ову. И Аврам начини онде жртвеник Господу, који му се јавио.
8 He left from there to the mountain on the east of Bethel, and pitched his tent, having Bethel on the west, and Ai on the east. There he built an altar and called on the name of God.
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 Abram traveled on, continuing toward the Negev.
Оданде отиде Аврам даље идући на југ.
10 There was a famine in the land, so Abram went down into Egypt to sojourn there, because the famine was severe in the land.
Али наста глад у оној земљи, те Аврам сиђе у Мисир да се онде склони; јер глад беше велика у оној земљи.
11 It happened, when he had come near to enter Egypt, that he said to Sarai his wife, "Look, I know what a beautiful woman you are.
А кад се приближи да већ уђе у Мисир, рече Сари жени својој: Гле, знам да си жена лепа у лицу.
12 It will happen, when the Egyptians will see you, that they will say, 'This is his wife.' And they will kill me, but they will let you live.
Зато кад те виде Мисирци рећи ће: Ово му је жена. Па ће ме убити, а тебе ће оставити у животу.
13 Please say that you are my sister, that it may be well with me for your sake, and that I may live because of you."
Него хајде кажи да си ми сестра, те ће мени бити добро тебе ради и остаћу у животу уз тебе.
14 It happened that when Abram had come into Egypt, the Egyptians saw that the woman was very beautiful.
И кад дође Аврам у Мисир, видеше Мисирци жену да је врло лепа.
15 The princes of Pharaoh saw her, and praised her to Pharaoh; and the woman was taken into the household of Pharaoh.
И видеше је кнезови Фараонови, и хвалише је пред Фараоном. И узеше је у двор Фараонов.
16 He dealt well with Abram for her sake, and he acquired sheep, cattle, male donkeys, male servants, female servants, female donkeys, 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 But God plagued Pharaoh and his house with great and grievous plagues because of Sarai, Abram's wife.
Али Господ пусти велика зла на Фараона и на дом његов ради Саре жене Аврамове.
18 Pharaoh summoned Abram and said, "What is this that you have done to me? Why did you not tell me 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, 'She is my sister,' so that I took her to be my wife? Now therefore, look, your wife is before you. Take, and go."
Зашто си казао: Сестра ми је? Те је узех за жену. Сад ето ти жене, узми је, па иди.
20 Pharaoh commanded men concerning him, and they sent him away with his wife and all his possessions.
И Фараон заповеди људима за њ, те га испратише и жену његову и шта год имаше.
