< Postanak 12 >
1 I reèe Gospod Avramu: idi iz zemlje svoje i od roda svojega i iz doma oca svojega u zemlju koju æu ti ja pokazati.
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:
2 I uèiniæu od tebe velik narod, i blagosloviæu te, i ime tvoje proslaviæu, i ti æeš biti blagoslov.
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:
3 Blagosloviæu one koji tebe uzblagosiljaju, i prokleæu one koji tebe usproklinju; i u tebi æe biti blagoslovena sva plemena na zemlji.
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.
4 Tada poðe Avram, kao što mu kaza Gospod, i s njim poðe Lot. A bješe Avramu sedamdeset i pet godina kad poðe iz Harana.
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.
5 I uze Avram Saru ženu svoju i Lota sina brata svojega sa svijem blagom koje bjehu stekli i s dušama koje bjehu dobili u Haranu; i poðoše u zemlju Hanansku, i doðoše u nju.
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.
6 I proðe Avram tu zemlju do mjesta Sihema i do ravnice Moreške; a bijahu tada Hananeji u toj zemlji.
And Abram passed through the land to the place of Sichem, to the plain of Moreh. And the Canaanite [was] then in the land.
7 I javi se Gospod Avramu i reèe: tvojemu sjemenu daæu zemlju ovu. I Avram naèini ondje žrtvenik Gospodu, koji mu se javio.
And the LORD appeared to Abram, and said, To thy seed will I give this land: and there he erected an altar to the LORD, who appeared to him.
8 Poslije otide odande na brdo koje je prema istoku od Vetilja, i ondje razape šator svoj, te mu Vetilj bješe sa zapada a Gaj s istoka; i ondje naèini Gospodu žrtvenik, i prizva ime Gospodnje.
And he removed from thence to a mountain on the east of Beth-el, and pitched his tent, [having] Beth-el on the west, and Hai on the east: and there he erected an altar to the LORD, and called upon the name of the LORD.
9 Odande otide Avram dalje iduæi na jug.
And Abram journeyed, going on still towards the south.
10 Ali nasta glad u onoj zemlji, te Avram siðe u Misir da se ondje skloni; jer glad bješe velika u onoj zemlji.
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.
11 A kad se približi da veæ uðe u Misir, reèe Sari ženi svojoj: gle, znam da si žena lijepa u licu.
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:
12 Zato kad te vide Misirci reæi æe: ovo mu je žena. Pa æe me ubiti, a tebe æe ostaviti u životu.
Therefore it will come to pass, when the Egyptians shall see thee, that they will say, This [is] his wife: and they will kill me, but they will save thee alive.
13 Nego hajde kaži da si mi sestra, te æe meni biti dobro tebe radi i ostaæu u životu uz tebe.
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.
14 I kad doðe Avram u Misir, vidješe Misirci ženu da je vrlo lijepa.
And it came to pass, that when Abram had come into Egypt, the Egyptians beheld the woman that she [was] very fair.
15 I vidješe je knezovi Faraonovi, i hvališe je pred Faraonom. I uzeše je u dvor Faraonov.
The princes also of Pharaoh saw her, and commended her before Pharaoh: and the woman was taken into Pharaoh's house.
16 I on èinjaše dobro Avramu nje radi, te imaše ovaca i goveda i magaraca i sluga i sluškinja i magarica i kamila.
And he treated Abram well for her sake: and he had sheep, and oxen, and he-asses, and men-servants, and maid-servants, and she-asses, and camels.
17 Ali Gospod pusti velika zla na Faraona i na dom njegov radi Sare žene Avramove.
And the LORD afflicted Pharaoh and his house with great plagues, because of Sarai, Abram's wife.
18 Tada dozva Faraon Avrama i reèe mu: šta mi to uèini? zašto mi nijesi kazao da ti je žena?
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?
19 Zašto si kazao: sestra mi je? te je uzeh za ženu. Sad eto ti žene, uzmi je, pa idi.
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.
20 I Faraon zapovjedi ljudima za nj, te ga ispratiše i ženu njegovu i što god imaše.
And Pharaoh commanded [his] men concerning him: and they sent him away, and his wife, and all that he had.
