Genesis 21
1 Yahweh was very kind to Sarah, just as he said he would be. He did for Sarah exactly what he promised to do.
Jahve se sjeti Sare kako je rekao i učini joj kako je obećao:
2 She became pregnant and gave birth to a son for Abraham when he was very old, at the time God promised it would happen.
Sara zače i rodi Abrahamu sina u njegovoj starosti - u vrijeme koje je Bog označio.
3 Abraham gave the name ‘Isaac’ (which means ‘he laughs’) to the son Sarah gave birth to.
Abraham nadjene ime Izak svome sinu što mu ga Sara rodi.
4 Abraham circumcised his son Isaac when his son was eight days old, just as God commanded him to do.
I poslije osam dana obreza Abraham svoga sina Izaka, kako mu je Bog naredio.
5 Abraham was 100 years old when his son Isaac was born.
Abrahamu bijaše stotinu godina kad mu se rodio sin Izak.
6 And Sarah said, “[Although I was sad before because I did not have any children], God has now enabled me to laugh, and everyone who hears about what God has done for me will laugh with me.”
Sara reče: “Dade mi Bog da se nasmijem, i tko god to čuje nasmijat će mi se.”
7 Then she also said, “No one would have said to Abraham that some day Sarah would nurse a child, but I have given birth to a son when Abraham is very old.”
Još doda: “Tko bi ikad rekao Abrahamu: djecu će ti Sara dojiti! Ipak sina mu rodih u starosti”.
8 The baby grew and was weaned [when he was about three years old]. On that day, Abraham prepared a large feast to celebrate.
Dijete je raslo i bilo od sise odbijeno. A u dan u koji Izak bijaše od sise odbijen Abraham priredi veliku gozbu.
9 ([One day/During the feast)] Sarah noticed that Hagar’s son Ishmael was (making fun of/playing with) Isaac.
Jednom opazi Sara gdje se sin koga je Egipćanka Hagara Abrahamu rodila igra s njezinim sinom Izakom,
10 So she said to Abraham, “Get rid of that slave woman from Egypt and her son! I do not want the son of that slave woman to be alone (OR, to be an heir along with) my son, Isaac!”
pa reče Abrahamu: “Otjeraj tu sluškinju i njezina sina, jer sin sluškinje ne smije biti baštinik s mojim sinom - s Izakom!”
11 Abraham was very distressed about the matter, because he was concerned about his son [Ishmael].
To je Abrahamu bilo nemilo, jer je i Jišmael bio njegov sin.
12 But God said to Abraham, “Do not be distressed about your son, Ishmael, and about your maidservant, Hagar. Do everything that Sarah tells you to do. Listen to her, because Isaac is the one who will be considered the ancestor of the descendants I promised to give you.
Ali Bog reče Abrahamu: “Nemoj se uznemirivati zbog dječaka i zbog svoje sluškinje; sve što ti kaže Sara poslušaj, jer će Izakovo potomstvo tebi ovjekovječiti ime.
13 But I will also cause the son of your maidservant to be the ancestor of the people of a great nation [MTY], because he is also your son.”
I od sina tvoje sluškinje podići ću velik narod, jer je tvoj potomak.”
14 So Abraham got up early the next morning. He got some food ready, put water in a container, and gave them to Hagar. He put them [in a bag] on her shoulder and sent them away. They wandered in the desert near Beersheba [town].
Rano ujutro Abraham uze kruha i mješinicu vode pa dade Hagari; stavi to na njezina ramena, zajedno s dječakom, te je otpusti. Vrludala je amo-tamo po pustinji Beer Šebe.
15 After they had drunk all the water in the container, she put her son under one of the bushes there.
Potrošivši vodu iz mješinice, ostavi dijete pod jednim grmom,
16 Then she went and sat nearby, about (as far as someone can shoot an arrow/100 meters away), because she thought, “I cannot endure seeing my son die!” As she sat there, she began to cry [loudly] [MTY].
a sama ode i sjede nasuprot, daleko koliko luk može dobaciti. Govorila je u sebi: “Neću da vidim kako dijete umire.” Sjedeći tako, udari u jecanje.
17 [The boy was crying too.] And God heard the boy crying. So he caused one of his angels to call out from heaven to Hagar, saying, “Hagar, are you worried about something? Do not be afraid, because God has heard the boy crying there.
Bog ču plač dječaka te anđeo Božji zovne s neba Hagaru i reče joj: “Što ti je, Hagaro? Ne boj se! Jer je Bog čuo plač dječaka u njegovoj nevolji.
18 Help your son up, and hold his hand as you leave, because I will cause his descendants to become a great nation.”
Na noge! Digni dječaka i utješi ga, jer od njega ću podići velik narod.”
19 Then God showed her a well of water. So she went to the well and filled the container with water, and gave the boy a drink.
Tada joj Bog otvori oči pa ona opazi studenac. Ode i napuni vodom mješinicu pa napoji dječaka.
20 God helped the boy as he grew up. He lived in the desert and became a good (archer/man who hunts with bow and arrows).
Bog je bio s dječakom te je rastao i odrastao. Živio je u pustinji te postao vješt u strijeljanju iz luka.
21 He lived in Paran Desert. While e was there, Hagar got a wife for him from Egypt.
Dom mu bijaše u pustinji Paranu; a njegova mu majka dobavi ženu iz zemlje egipatske.
22 At that time, [King] Abimelech and Phicol, the commander of his army, said to Abraham, “It is clear that God helps you with everything that you do.
U to vrijeme Abimelek - koga je pratio Fikol, zapovjednik njegove vojske - reče Abrahamu: “Bog je s tobom u svemu što radiš.
23 So now (solemnly promise/swear) to me here, as God is listening, that you will (not deceive/act fairly to) me and my children and my descendants, in return for my being kind to you. Be kind to me and to all the people here in the country where you are now living.”
Stoga mi se ovdje i sada zakuni Bogom da nećeš varati ni mene ni moju rodbinu i prijatelje nego da ćeš se prema meni i prema zemlji u kojoj sad boraviš ponašati pošteno, kao što sam se ja prema tebi ponio.”
24 So Abraham promised to do that.
“Kunem se”, odgovori Abraham.
25 [Then] Abraham complained to Abimelech about one of Abraham’s wells that Abimelech’s servants had seized.
Onda Abraham prekori Abimeleka zbog zdenca vode što su ga Abimelekove sluge bile prisvojile.
26 But Abimelech said, “I do not know who has done that. You did not tell me previously, and I did not hear about it until today.”
A Abimelek reče: “Ne znam tko je to učinio; ni ti me nisi o tome obavijestio, niti sam ja o tome čuo, osim danas.”
27 So Abraham brought some sheep and gave them to Abimelech, and the two of them made a (treaty/peace agreement).
Abraham uzme ovaca i goveda pa ih dade Abimeleku te njih dvojica sklope savez.
28 Abraham separated seven female lambs from his flock.
Potom Abraham razluči napose sedam janjaca od stada.
29 Abimelech asked Abraham, “What are these seven female lambs that you have separated from the rest of your flock?”
Nato Abimelek zapita Abrahama: “Što znači ovih sedam janjaca koje si na stranu stavio?”
30 Abraham replied, “I want you truly to accept these female lambs from me [SYN], so that it may be a (public witness/proof) that this well belongs to me because I dug it.”
A on odgovori: “Primi ovih sedam janjaca iz moje ruke da mi bude dokazom da sam ja iskopao ovaj zdenac.”
31 So Abimelech accepted the animals, and as a result they called that place Beersheba, [which means ‘Friendship Agreement Well’, ] because there the two of them made that agreement.
Zato se ono mjesto nazvalo Beer Šeba; jer se njih dvojica ondje zakleše.
32 After they made the agreement at Beersheba, Abimelech and his army commander, Phicol, left, and returned to the land of the Philistine people-group.
Pošto su sklopili savez kod Beer Šebe, Abimelek i zapovjednik njegove vojske Fikol odu i vrate se u zemlju Filistejaca.
33 Abraham planted a (tamarisk tree/kind of tree called esel) there, and he worshiped the eternal God there.
Abraham zasadi kod Beer Šebe tamarisku i ondje zazove ime Jahve - Boga Vječnoga.
34 Abraham lived in the land of the Philistine people-group for a long time.
Dugo je vremena Abraham proveo u zemlji filistejskoj kao pridošlica.
