Genesis 12
1 Now the LORD had said to Abram, Depart from thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father’s house, to a land that I will show thee:
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 thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt 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 them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth 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 departed, as the LORD had spoken to him; and Lot went with him: and Abram was seventy and 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 And Abram took Sarai his wife, and Lot his brother’s son, and all their substance that they had gathered, and the souls that they had gotten in Haran; and they went to go forth into the land of Canaan; and into the land of Canaan they came.
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 Sichem, to the plain of Moreh. And the Canaanite was then in the land.
И пође Аврам ту земљу до места Сихема и до равнице морешке; а беху тада Хананеји у тој земљи.
7 And the LORD appeared to Abram, and said, To thy seed will I give this land: and there he built an altar to the LORD, 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 And he departed from there to a mountain on the east of Bethel, and pitched his tent, having Bethel on the west, and Ai on the east: and there he built an altar to the LORD, and called upon the name of the LORD.
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 journeyed, going on still toward the south.
Оданде отиде Аврам даље идући на југ.
10 And there was a famine in the land: and Abram went down into Egypt to dwell there; for the famine was grievous 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 And it came to pass, when he had come near to enter into Egypt, that he said to Sarai his wife, Behold now, I know that thou art a fair woman to look upon:
А кад се приближи да већ уђе у Мисир, рече Сари жени својој: Гле, знам да си жена лепа у лицу.
12 Therefore it shall come to pass, when the Egyptians shall see thee, that they shall say, This is his wife: and they will kill me, but they will save thee alive.
Зато кад те виде Мисирци рећи ће: Ово му је жена. Па ће ме убити, а тебе ће оставити у животу.
13 Say, I pray thee, thou art my sister: that it may be well with me for thy sake; and my soul shall live because of thee.
Него хајде кажи да си ми сестра, те ће мени бити добро тебе ради и остаћу у животу уз тебе.
14 And it came to pass, that, when Abram had come into Egypt, the Egyptians beheld the woman that she was very fair.
И кад дође Аврам у Мисир, видеше Мисирци жену да је врло лепа.
15 The princes also of Pharaoh saw her, and commended her before Pharaoh: and the woman was taken into Pharaoh’s house.
И видеше је кнезови Фараонови, и хвалише је пред Фараоном. И узеше је у двор Фараонов.
16 And he treated Abram well for her sake: and he had sheep, and oxen, and male donkeys, and male and female servants, and 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 And the LORD afflicted Pharaoh and his house with great plagues because of Sarai Abram’s wife.
Али Господ пусти велика зла на Фараона и на дом његов ради Саре жене Аврамове.
18 And Pharaoh called Abram, and said, What is this that thou hast done to me? why didst thou not tell me that she is thy wife?
Тада дозва Фараон Аврама и рече му: Шта ми то учини? Зашто ми ниси казао да ти је жена?
19 Why saidst thou, She is my sister? so I might have taken her to me for a wife: now therefore behold thy wife, take her, and go thy way.
Зашто си казао: Сестра ми је? Те је узех за жену. Сад ето ти жене, узми је, па иди.
20 And Pharaoh commanded his men concerning him: and they sent him away, and his wife, and all that he had.
И Фараон заповеди људима за њ, те га испратише и жену његову и шта год имаше.
