< Postanak 29 >

1 Tada se podiže Jakov i otide u zemlju istoènu.
And Jacob lifteth up his feet, and goeth towards the land of the sons of the east;
2 I obziruæi se ugleda studenac u polju; i gle, tri stada ovaca ležahu kod njega, jer se na onom studencu pojahu stada, a veliki kamen bijaše studencu na vratima.
and he looketh, and lo, a well in the field, and lo, there three droves of a flock crouching by it, for from that well they water the droves, and the great stone [is] on the mouth of the well.
3 Ondje se skupljahu sva stada, te pastiri odvaljivahu kamen s vrata studencu i pojahu stada, i poslije opet privaljivahu kamen na vrata studencu na njegovo mjesto.
(When thither have all the droves been gathered, and they have rolled the stone from off the mouth of the well, and have watered the flock, then they have turned back the stone on the mouth of the well to its place.)
4 I Jakov im reèe: braæo, odakle ste? Rekoše: iz Harana smo.
And Jacob saith to them, 'My brethren, from whence [are] ye?' and they say, 'We [are] from Haran.'
5 A on im reèe: poznajete li Lavana sina Nahorova? Oni rekoše: poznajemo.
And he saith to them, 'Have ye known Laban, son of Nahor?' and they say, 'We have known.'
6 On im reèe: je li zdrav? Rekoše: jest, i evo Rahilje kæeri njegove, gdje ide sa stadom.
And he saith to them, 'Hath he peace?' and they say, 'Peace; and lo, Rachel his daughter is coming with the flock.'
7 I on reèe: eto još je rano, niti je vrijeme vraæati stoku; napojte stoku pa idite i pasite je.
And he saith, 'Lo, the day [is] still great, [it is] not time for the cattle to be gathered; water ye the flock, and go, delight yourselves.'
8 A oni rekoše: ne možemo, dokle se ne skupe sva stada, da odvalimo kamen s vrata studencu, onda æemo napojiti stoku.
And they say, 'We are not able, till that all the droves be gathered together, and they have rolled away the stone from the mouth of the well, and we have watered the flock.'
9 Dok on još govoraše s njima, doðe Rahilja sa stadom oca svojega, jer ona pasijaše ovce.
He is yet speaking with them, and Rachel hath come with the flock which her father hath, for she [is] shepherdess;
10 A kad Jakov vidje Rahilju kæer Lavana ujaka svojega, i stado Lavana ujaka svojega, pristupi Jakov i odvali kamen studencu s vrata, i napoji stado Lavana ujaka svojega.
and it cometh to pass when Jacob hath seen Rachel, daughter of Laban his mother's brother, and the flock of Laban his mother's brother, that Jacob cometh nigh and rolleth the stone from off the mouth of the well, and watereth the flock of Laban his mother's brother.
11 I poljubi Jakov Rahilju, i povikavši zaplaka se.
And Jacob kisseth Rachel, and lifteth up his voice, and weepeth,
12 I kaza se Jakov Rahilji da je rod ocu njezinu i da je sin Reveèin; a ona otrèa te javi ocu svojemu.
and Jacob declareth to Rachel that he [is] her father's brother, and that he [is] Rebekah's son, and she runneth and declareth to her father.
13 A kad Lavan èu za Jakova sina sestre svoje, istrèa mu na susret, i zagrli ga i poljubi, i uvede u svoju kuæu. I on pripovjedi Lavanu sve ovo.
And it cometh to pass, when Laban heareth the report of Jacob his sister's son, that he runneth to meet him, and embraceth him, and kisseth him, and bringeth him in unto his house; and he recounteth to Laban all these things,
14 A Lavan mu reèe: ta ti si kost moja i tijelo moje. I osta kod njega cio mjesec dana.
and Laban saith to him, 'Only my bone and my flesh [art] thou;' and he dwelleth with him a month of days.
15 Tada reèe Lavan Jakovu: zar badava da mi služiš, što si mi rod? Kaži mi šta æe ti biti plata?
And Laban saith to Jacob, 'Is it because thou [art] my brother that thou hast served me for nought? declare to me what [is] thy hire.'
16 A Lavan imaše dvije kæeri: starijoj bješe ime Lija, a mlaðoj Rahilja.
And Laban hath two daughters, the name of the elder [is] Leah, and the name of the younger Rachel,
17 I u Lije bjehu kvarne oèi, a Rahilja bješe lijepa stasa i lijepa lica.
and the eyes of Leah [are] tender, and Rachel hath been fair of form and fair of appearance.
18 I Jakovu omilje Rahilja, te reèe: služiæu ti sedam godina za Rahilju, mlaðu kæer tvoju.
And Jacob loveth Rachel, and saith, 'I serve thee seven years for Rachel thy younger daughter:'
19 A Lavan mu reèe: bolje tebi da je dam nego drugom; ostani kod mene.
and Laban saith, 'It is better for me to give her to thee than to give her to another man; dwell with me;'
20 I otsluži Jakov za Rahilju sedam godina, i uèiniše mu se kao nekoliko dana, jer je ljubljaše.
and Jacob serveth for Rachel seven years; and they are in his eyes as some days, because of his loving her.
21 I reèe Jakov Lavanu: daj mi ženu, jer mi se navrši vrijeme, da legnem s njom.
And Jacob saith unto Laban, 'Give up my wife, for my days have been fulfilled, and I go in unto her;'
22 I sazva Lavan sve ljude iz onoga mjesta i uèini gozbu.
and Laban gathereth all the men of the place, and maketh a banquet.
23 A uveèe uze Liju kæer svoju i uvede je k Jakovu, i on leže s njom.
And it cometh to pass in the evening, that he taketh Leah, his daughter, and bringeth her in unto him, and he goeth in unto her;
24 I Lavan dade Zelfu robinju svoju Liji kæeri svojoj da joj bude robinja.
and Laban giveth to her Zilpah, his maid-servant, to Leah his daughter, a maid-servant.
25 A kad bi ujutru, gle, ono bješe Lija; te reèe Jakov Lavanu: šta si mi to uèinio? ne služim li za Rahilju kod tebe? zašto si me prevario?
And it cometh to pass in the morning, that lo, it [is] Leah; and he saith unto Laban, 'What [is] this thou hast done to me? for Rachel have I not served with thee? and why hast thou deceived me?'
26 A Lavan mu reèe: ne biva u našem mjestu da se uda mlaða prije starije.
And Laban saith, 'It is not done so in our place, to give the younger before the first-born;
27 Navrši nedjelju dana s tom, pa æemo ti dati i drugu za službu što æeš služiti kod mene još sedam godina drugih.
fulfil the week of this one, and we give to thee also this one, for the service which thou dost serve with me yet seven other years.'
28 Jakov uèini tako, i navrši s njom nedjelju dana, pa mu dade Lavan Rahilju kæer svoju za ženu.
And Jacob doth so, and fulfilleth the week of this one, and he giveth to him Rachel his daughter, to him for a wife;
29 I dade Lavan Rahilji kæeri svojoj robinju svoju Valu da joj bude robinja.
and Laban giveth to Rachel his daughter Bilhah his maid-servant, for a maid-servant to her.
30 I tako leže Jakov s Rahiljom; i voljaše Rahilju nego Liju, i stade služiti kod Lavana još sedam drugih godina.
And he goeth in also unto Rachel, and he also loveth Rachel more than Leah; and he serveth with him yet seven other years.
31 A Gospod videæi da Jakov ne mari za Liju, otvori njojzi matericu, a Rahilja osta nerotkinja.
And Jehovah seeth that Leah [is] the hated one, and He openeth her womb, and Rachel [is] barren;
32 I Lija zatrudnje, i rodi sina, i nadjede mu ime Ruvim, govoreæi: Gospod pogleda na jade moje, sada æe me ljubiti muž moj.
and Leah conceiveth, and beareth a son, and calleth his name Reuben, for she said, 'Because Jehovah hath looked on mine affliction; because now doth my husband love me.'
33 I opet zatrudnje, i rodi sina, i reèe: Gospod èu da sam prezrena, pa mi dade i ovoga. I nadjede mu ime Simeun.
And she conceiveth again, and beareth a son, and saith, 'Because Jehovah hath heard that I [am] the hated one, He also giveth to me even this [one];' and she calleth his name Simeon.
34 I opet zatrudnje, i rodi sina, i reèe: da ako se sada veæ priljubi k meni muž moj, kad mu rodih tri sina. Zato mu nadješe ime Levije.
And she conceiveth again, and beareth a son, and saith, 'Now [is] the time, my husband is joined unto me, because I have born to him three sons,' therefore hath [one] called his name Levi.
35 I zatrudnje opet, i rodi sina, i reèe: sada æu hvaliti Gospoda. Zato mu nadjede ime Juda; i presta raðati.
And she conceiveth again, and beareth a son, and saith this time, 'I praise Jehovah;' therefore hath she called his name Judah; and she ceaseth from bearing.
