Genesis 43

1 And the famine [is] severe in the land;

Ali glad bješe vrlo velika u onoj zemlji.

2 and it cometh to pass, when they have finished eating the corn which they brought from Egypt, that their father saith unto them, 'Turn back, buy for us a little food.'

Pa kad pojedoše žito koje bijahu donijeli iz Misira, reèe im otac: idite opet, i kupite nam malo hrane.

3 And Judah speaketh unto him, saying, 'The man protesting protested to us, saying, Ye do not see my face without your brother [being] with you;

A Juda mu progovori i reèe: tvrdo nam se zarekao onaj èovjek govoreæi: neæete vidjeti lica mojega, ako ne bude s vama brat vaš.

4 if thou art sending our brother with us, we go down, and buy for thee food,

Ako æeš pustiti s nama brata našega, iæi æemo i kupiæemo ti hrane.

5 and if thou art not sending — we do not go down, for the man said unto us, Ye do not see my face without your brother [being] with you.'

Ako li neæeš pustiti, neæemo iæi, jer nam je kazao onaj èovjek: neæete vidjeti lica mojega, ako ne bude s vama brat vaš.

6 And Israel saith, 'Why did ye evil to me, by declaring to the man that ye had yet a brother?'

A Izrailj reèe: što mi to zlo uèiniste i kazaste èovjeku da imate još jednoga brata?

7 and they say, 'The man asked diligently concerning us, and concerning our kindred, saying, Is your father yet alive? have ye a brother? and we declare to him according to the tenor of these things; do we certainly know that he will say, Bring down your brother?'

A oni rekoše: èovjek je potanko raspitivao za nas i za rod naš govoreæi: je li vam jošte živ otac? imate li još braæe? a mi mu odgovarasmo kako nas pitaše. Jesmo li mogli kako znati da æe kazati: dovedite brata svojega?

8 And Judah saith unto Israel his father, 'Send the youth with me, and we arise, and go, and live, and do not die, both we, and thou, and our infants.

I reèe Juda Izrailju ocu svojemu: pusti dijete sa mnom, pa æemo se podignuti i otiæi, da ostanemo živi i ne pomremo i mi i ti i naša djeca.

9 I — I am surety [for] him, from my hand thou dost require him; if I have not brought him in unto thee, and set him before thee — then I have sinned against thee all the days;

Ja ti se jamèim za nj, iz moje ga ruke išti; ako ti ga ne dovedem natrag i preda te ne stavim, da sam ti kriv dovijeka.

10 for if we had not lingered, surely now we had returned these two times.'

Da nijesmo toliko oklijevali, do sada bismo se dva puta vratili.

11 And Israel their father saith unto them, 'If so, now, this do: take of the praised thing of the land in your vessels, and take down to the man a present, a little balm, and a little honey, spices and myrrh, nuts and almonds;

Onda reèe Izrailj otac njihov: kad je tako, uèinite ovo: uzmite što najljepše ima u ovoj zemlji u svoje vreæe, i ponesite èovjeku onom dar: malo tamjana i malo meda, mirisava korijenja i smirne, urme i badema.

12 and double money take in your hand, even the money which is brought back in the mouth of your bags, ye take back in your hand, it may be it [is] an oversight.

A novaca ponesite dvojinom, i uzmite novce što bijahu ozgo u vreæama vašim i odnesite natrag, može biti da je pogrješka.

13 'And take your brother, and rise, turn back unto the man;

I uzmite brata svojega, pa ustanite i idite opet k onom èovjeku.

14 and God Almighty give to you mercies before the man, so that he hath sent to you your other brother and Benjamin; and I, when I am bereaved — I am bereaved.'

A Bog svemoguæi da vam da da naðete milost u onoga èovjeka, da vam pusti brata vašega drugoga i Venijamina; ako li ostanem bez djece, nek ostanem bez djece.

15 And the men take this present, double money also they have taken in their hand, and Benjamin; and they rise, and go down to Egypt, and stand before Joseph;

Tada uzevši dare i novaca dvojinom, uzevši i Venijamina, podigoše se i otidoše u Misir, i izaðoše pred Josifa.

16 and Joseph seeth Benjamin with them, and saith to him who [is] over his house, 'Bring the men into the house, and slaughter an animal, and make ready, for with me do the men eat at noon.'

A Josif kad vidje s njima Venijamina, reèe èovjeku koji upravljaše kuæom njegovom: odvedi ove ljude u kuæu, pa nakolji mesa i zgotovi, jer æe u podne sa mnom jesti ovi ljudi.

17 And the man doth as Joseph hath said, and the man bringeth in the men into the house of Joseph,

I uèini èovjek kako Josif reèe, i uvede ljude u kuæu Josifovu.

18 and the men are afraid because they have been brought into the house of Joseph, and they say, 'For the matter of the money which was put back in our bags at the commencement are we brought in — to roll himself upon us, and to throw himself on us, and to take us for servants — our asses also.'

A oni se bojahu kad ih èovjek voðaše u kuæu Josifovu, i rekoše: za novce koji preðe bjehu metnuti u vreæe naše vodi nas, dokle smisli kako æe nas okriviti, da nas zarobi i uzme naše magarce.

19 And they come nigh unto the man who [is] over the house of Joseph, and speak unto him at the opening of the house,

Pa pristupivši k èovjeku koji upravljaše kuæom Josifovom, progovoriše mu na vratima kuænim,

20 and say, 'O, my lord, we really come down at the commencement to buy food;

I rekoše: èuj, gospodaru; došli smo bili i preðe, i kupismo hrane;

21 and it cometh to pass, when we have come in unto the lodging-place, and open our bags, that lo, each one's money [is] in the mouth of his bag, our money in its weight, and we bring it back in our hand;

Pa kad doðosmo u jednu gostionicu i otvorismo vreæe, a to novci svakoga nas bijahu ozgo u vreæi njegovoj, novci naši na mjeru; i evo smo ih donijeli natrag;

22 and other money have we brought down in our hand to buy food; we have not known who put our money in our bags.'

A druge smo novce donijeli da kupimo hrane; ne znamo ko nam metnu novce naše u vreæe.

23 And he saith, 'Peace to you, fear not: your God and the God of your father hath given to you hidden treasure in your bags, your money came unto me;' and he bringeth out Simeon unto them.

A on im reèe: budite mirni, ne bojte se; Bog vaš i Bog oca vašega metnuo je blago u vreæe vaše; novci su vaši bili u mene. I izvede im Simeuna.

24 And the man bringeth in the men into Joseph's house, and giveth water, and they wash their feet; and he giveth provender for their asses,

I uvede ih èovjek u kuæu Josifovu, i donese im vode te opraše noge, i magarcima njihovijem položi.

25 and they prepare the present until the coming of Joseph at noon, for they have heard that there they do eat bread.

I pripraviše dar èekajuæi dokle doðe Josif u podne, jer èuše da æe oni ondje objedovati.

26 And Joseph cometh into the house, and they bring to him the present which [is] in their hand, into the house, and bow themselves to him, to the earth;

I kad Josif doðe kuæi, iznesoše mu dar koji imahu kod sebe, i pokloniše mu se do zemlje.

27 and he asketh of them of peace, and saith, 'Is your father well? the aged man of whom ye have spoken, is he yet alive?'

A on ih zapita kako su, i reèe: kako je otac vaš stari, za koga mi govoriste? je li jošte živ?

28 and they say, 'Thy servant our father [is] well, he is yet alive;' and they bow, and do obeisance.

A oni rekoše: dobro je sluga tvoj, otac naš; još je živ. I pokloniše mu se.

29 And he lifteth up his eyes, and seeth Benjamin his brother, his mother's son, and saith, 'Is this your young brother, of whom ye have spoken unto me?' and he saith, 'God favour thee, my son.'

A on pogledav vidje Venijamina brata svojega, sina matere svoje, i reèe: je li vam to najmlaði brat vaš za kojega mi govoriste? I reèe: Bog da ti bude milostiv, sinko!

30 And Joseph hasteth, for his bowels have been moved for his brother, and he seeketh to weep, and entereth the inner chamber, and weepeth there;

A Josifu goraše srce od ljubavi prema bratu svojemu, te brže potraži gdje æe plakati, i ušav u jednu sobu plaka ondje.

31 and he washeth his face, and goeth out, and refraineth himself, and saith, 'Place bread.'

Poslije umiv se izaðe, i ustežuæi se reèe: dajte objed.

32 And they place for him by himself, and for them by themselves, and for the Egyptians who are eating with him by themselves: for the Egyptians are unable to eat bread with the Hebrews, for it [is] an abomination to the Egyptians.

I donesoše njemu napose, i njima napose, i Misircima koji objedovahu u njega napose, jer ne mogahu Misirci jesti s Jevrejima, jer je to neèisto Misircima.

33 And they sit before him, the first-born according to his birthright, and the young one according to his youth, and the men wonder one at another;

A sjeðahu pred njim stariji po starješinstvu svojem a mlaði po mladosti svojoj. I zgledahu se od èuda.

34 and he lifteth up gifts from before him unto them, and the gift of Benjamin is five hands more than the gifts of all of them; and they drink, yea, they drink abundantly with him.

I uzimajuæi jela ispred sebe slaše njima, i Venijaminu dopade pet puta više nego drugima. I piše i napiše se s njim.
