Postanak 28
1 Tada Isak dozva Jakova, i blagoslovi ga, i zapovjedi mu i reèe: nemoj da se oženiš kojom izmeðu kæeri Hananejskih.
Then Isaac called Jacob, and blessed him, —and commanded him and said to him, Thou shalt not take a wife of the daughters of Canaan.
2 Ustani, idi u Padan-Aram u dom Vatuila oca matere svoje, i odande se oženi izmeðu kæeri Lavana ujaka svojega.
Rise, go thy way to Padan-aram to the house of Bethuel, thy mother’s father, —and take thee from thence a wife, of the daughters of Laban, thy mother’s brother.
3 A Bog svemoguæi da te blagoslovi, i da ti da veliku porodicu i umnoži te, da od tebe postane mnoštvo naroda,
And, GOD Almighty, bless thee, and make thee fruitful, and multiply thee, so shalt thou become a multitude of peoples.
4 I da ti da blagoslov Avramov, tebi i sjemenu tvojemu s tobom, da naslijediš zemlju u kojoj si došljak, koju Bog dade Avramu.
And may he give thee the blessing of Abraham, to thee, and to thy seed with thee, —that thou mayest possess the land of thy sojournings, which God gave to Abraham.
5 Tako opravi Isak Jakova, i on poðe u Padan-Aram k Lavanu sinu Vatuila Sirina, bratu Reveke matere Jakovljeve i Isavove.
So Isaac sent away Jacob, and he took his journey to Padan-aram, —unto Laban son of Bethuel, the Syrian, brother of Rebekah, mother of Jacob and Esau.
6 A Isav vidje gdje Isak blagoslovi Jakova i opravi ga u Padan-Aram da se odande oženi, i gdje blagosiljajuæi ga zapovjedi mu i reèe: nemoj da se oženiš kojom izmeðu kæeri Hananejskih,
And Esau beheld that Isaac, when he blessed Jacob, and sent him to Padan-aram, to take to himself from thence a wife, that in blessing him, he laid command upon him, saying, Thou shalt not take a wife of the daughters of Canaan;
7 I gdje Jakov posluša oca svojega i mater svoju, i otide u Padan-Aram;
And that Jacob hearkened unto his father and unto his mother, —and took his journey to Padan-aram.
8 I vidje Isav da kæeri Hananejske nijesu po volji Isaku ocu njegovu.
So then Esau beheld that displeasing, were the daughters of Caanan, —in the eyes of Isaac his father:
9 Pa otide Isav k Ismailu, i uze za ženu preko žena svojih Maeletu, kæer Ismaila sina Avramova, sestru Navajotovu.
Esau therefore went unto Ishmael, —and took Mahalath daughter of Ishmael son of Abraham sister of Nebaioth, to himself to wife, in addition to the wives that he had.
10 A Jakov otide od Virsaveje iduæi u Haran.
So Jacob went forth from Beer-sheba, and journeyed towards Haran.
11 I doðe na jedno mjesto, i ondje zanoæi, jer sunce bješe zašlo; i uze kamen na onom mjestu, i metnu ga sebi pod glavu, i zaspa na onom mjestu.
And he lighted on a place, and tarried the night there, because the sun had gone in, —and he took of the stones of the place, and put for his pillow, and lay down in that place,
12 I usni, a to ljestve stajahu na zemlji a vrhom ticahu u nebo, i gle, anðeli Božji po njima se penjahu i slažahu;
And he dreamed, and lo! a stairway, planted earthwards, with, its top, reaching towards the heavens, —and lo! messengers of God, ascending and descending thereon;
13 I gle, na vrhu stajaše Gospod, i reèe: ja sam Gospod Bog Avrama oca tvojega i Bog Isakov; tu zemlju na kojoj spavaš tebi æu dati i sjemenu tvojemu;
and lo! Yahweh, standing by him, —and he said, I, am Yahweh, God of Abraham thy father and God of Isaac, —The land whereon, thou, art lying, to thee, will I give it and to thy seed;
14 I sjemena æe tvojega biti kao praha na zemlji, te æeš se raširiti na zapad i na istok i na sjever i na jug, i svi narodi na zemlji blagosloviæe se u tebi i u sjemenu tvojem.
And thy seed shall become as the dust of the earth, and thou shalt break forth westward and eastward, and northward and southward, —And all the families of the ground shall be blessed in thee and in thy seed.
15 I evo, ja sam s tobom, i èuvaæu te kuda god poðeš, i dovešæu te natrag u ovu zemlju, jer te neæu ostaviti dokle god ne uèinim što ti rekoh.
Lo! then, I, am with thee, so will I keep thee in every place whithersoever thou mayest go, and will bring thee back unto this soil, —For I will not forsake thee until I have done that of which I have spoken to thee.
16 A kad se Jakov probudi od sna, reèe: zacijelo je Gospod na ovom mjestu; a ja ne znah.
And Jacob awoke from his sleep, and said. Surely, Yahweh was in this place, And I, knew it not.
17 I uplaši se, i reèe: kako je strašno mjesto ovo! ovdje je doista kuæa Božja, i ovo su vrata nebeska.
And he feared and said, How fearful is this place! None other this, than the house of God! Nor this than the gate of the heavens
18 I usta Jakov ujutru rano, i uze kamen što bješe metnuo sebi pod glavu, i utvrdi ga za spomen i preli ga uljem.
So Jacob rose early in the morning, and took the stone which he had put for his pillow, and put it for a pillar, —and poured out oil upon the top thereof;
19 I prozva ono mjesto Vetilj, a preðe bješe ime onome gradu Luz.
and called the name of that place—Beth-el, —nevertheless, Luz, was the name of the city, aforetime.
20 I uèini Jakov zavjet, govoreæi: ako Bog bude sa mnom i saèuva me na putu kojim idem i da mi hljeba da jedem i odijela da se oblaèim,
And Jacob vowed a vow, saying, —If God will be with me, and will keep me in this way whereon, I, am going, and give me bread to eat and raiment to put on;
21 I ako se vratim na miru u dom oca svojega, Gospod æe mi biti Bog;
and I come back in prosperity unto the house of my father, Then will Yahweh prove to be my God, —
22 A kamen ovaj koji utvrdih za spomen biæe dom Božji; i što mi god daš, od svega æu deseto dati tebi.
And, this stone which I have put for a pillar, shall be the house of God, —And, of all which thou shalt give me, a tenth, will I tithe unto thee.
