Genesis 21
1 The LORD visited Sarah as he had said, and the LORD did to Sarah as he had spoken.
Jahve se sjeti Sare kako je rekao i učini joj kako je obećao:
2 Sarah conceived, and bore Abraham a son in his old age, at the set time of which God had spoken to him.
Sara zače i rodi Abrahamu sina u njegovoj starosti - u vrijeme koje je Bog označio.
3 Abraham called his son who was born to him, whom Sarah bore to him, Isaac.
Abraham nadjene ime Izak svome sinu što mu ga Sara rodi.
4 Abraham circumcised his son, Isaac, when he was eight days old, as God had commanded him.
I poslije osam dana obreza Abraham svoga sina Izaka, kako mu je Bog naredio.
5 Abraham was one hundred years old when his son, Isaac, was born to him.
Abrahamu bijaše stotinu godina kad mu se rodio sin Izak.
6 Sarah said, “God has made me laugh. Everyone who hears will laugh with me.”
Sara reče: “Dade mi Bog da se nasmijem, i tko god to čuje nasmijat će mi se.”
7 She said, “Who would have said to Abraham that Sarah would nurse children? For I have borne him a son in his old age.”
Još doda: “Tko bi ikad rekao Abrahamu: djecu će ti Sara dojiti! Ipak sina mu rodih u starosti”.
8 The child grew and was weaned. Abraham made a great feast on the day that Isaac was weaned.
Dijete je raslo i bilo od sise odbijeno. A u dan u koji Izak bijaše od sise odbijen Abraham priredi veliku gozbu.
9 Sarah saw the son of Hagar the Egyptian, whom she had borne to Abraham, mocking.
Jednom opazi Sara gdje se sin koga je Egipćanka Hagara Abrahamu rodila igra s njezinim sinom Izakom,
10 Therefore she said to Abraham, “Cast out this servant and her son! For the son of this servant will not be heir 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 The thing was very grievous in Abraham’s sight on account of his son.
To je Abrahamu bilo nemilo, jer je i Jišmael bio njegov sin.
12 God said to Abraham, “Don’t let it be grievous in your sight because of the boy, and because of your servant. In all that Sarah says to you, listen to her voice. For your offspring will be named through Isaac.
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 I will also make a nation of the son of the servant, because he is your child.”
I od sina tvoje sluškinje podići ću velik narod, jer je tvoj potomak.”
14 Abraham rose up early in the morning, and took bread and a container of water, and gave it to Hagar, putting it on her shoulder; and gave her the child, and sent her away. She departed, and wandered in the wilderness of Beersheba.
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 The water in the container was spent, and she put the child under one of the shrubs.
Potrošivši vodu iz mješinice, ostavi dijete pod jednim grmom,
16 She went and sat down opposite him, a good way off, about a bow shot away. For she said, “Don’t let me see the death of the child.” She sat opposite him, and lifted up her voice, and wept.
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 God heard the voice of the boy. The angel of God called to Hagar out of the sky, and said to her, “What troubles you, Hagar? Don’t be afraid. For God has heard the voice of the boy where he is.
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 Get up, lift up the boy, and hold him with your hand. For I will make him a great nation.”
Na noge! Digni dječaka i utješi ga, jer od njega ću podići velik narod.”
19 God opened her eyes, and she saw a well of water. She went, 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 was with the boy, and he grew. He lived in the wilderness, and as he grew up, he became an archer.
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 the wilderness of Paran. His mother got a wife for him out of the land of Egypt.
Dom mu bijaše u pustinji Paranu; a njegova mu majka dobavi ženu iz zemlje egipatske.
22 At that time, Abimelech and Phicol the captain of his army spoke to Abraham, saying, “God is with you in all 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 Now, therefore, swear to me here by God that you will not deal falsely with me, nor with my son, nor with my son’s son. But according to the kindness that I have done to you, you shall do to me, and to the land in which you have lived as a foreigner.”
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 Abraham said, “I will swear.”
“Kunem se”, odgovori Abraham.
25 Abraham complained to Abimelech because of a water well, which Abimelech’s servants had violently taken away.
Onda Abraham prekori Abimeleka zbog zdenca vode što su ga Abimelekove sluge bile prisvojile.
26 Abimelech said, “I don’t know who has done this thing. You didn’t tell me, and I didn’t hear of 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 Abraham took sheep and cattle, and gave them to Abimelech. Those two made a covenant.
Abraham uzme ovaca i goveda pa ih dade Abimeleku te njih dvojica sklope savez.
28 Abraham set seven ewe lambs of the flock by themselves.
Potom Abraham razluči napose sedam janjaca od stada.
29 Abimelech said to Abraham, “What do these seven ewe lambs, which you have set by themselves, mean?”
Nato Abimelek zapita Abrahama: “Što znači ovih sedam janjaca koje si na stranu stavio?”
30 He said, “You shall take these seven ewe lambs from my hand, that it may be a witness to me, that I have dug this well.”
A on odgovori: “Primi ovih sedam janjaca iz moje ruke da mi bude dokazom da sam ja iskopao ovaj zdenac.”
31 Therefore he called that place Beersheba, because they both swore an oath there.
Zato se ono mjesto nazvalo Beer Šeba; jer se njih dvojica ondje zakleše.
32 So they made a covenant at Beersheba. Abimelech rose up with Phicol, the captain of his army, and they returned into the land of the Philistines.
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 in Beersheba, and there he called on the name of the LORD, the Everlasting God.
Abraham zasadi kod Beer Šebe tamarisku i ondje zazove ime Jahve - Boga Vječnoga.
34 Abraham lived as a foreigner in the land of the Philistines many days.
Dugo je vremena Abraham proveo u zemlji filistejskoj kao pridošlica.
