Postanak 35
1 A Bog reèe Jakovu: ustani, idi gore u Vetilj i ondje stani; i naèini ondje žrtvenik Bogu, koji ti se javio kad si bježao od Isava brata svojega.
Then God told Jacob, “Get ready to go to Bethel and live there. Build an altar there to God, who appeared to you when you were running away from your brother Esau.”
2 I Jakov reèe porodici svojoj i svijema koji bijahu s njim: bacite tuðe bogove što su u vas, i oèistite se i preobucite se;
So Jacob told his family and everyone who was with him, “Get rid of the pagan idols you have with you. Purify yourselves and change your clothes.
3 Pa da se dignemo i idemo gore u Vetilj, da naèinim ondje žrtvenik Bogu, koji me je èuo u dan nevolje moje i bio sa mnom na putu kojim sam išao.
We have to get ready and go to Bethel so I can build an altar to God who answered me in my time of trouble. He has been with me wherever I went.”
4 I dadoše Jakovu sve bogove tuðe koji bijahu u njihovijem rukama, i oboce, koje imahu u ušima; i Jakov ih zakopa pod hrastom kod Sihema.
They handed over to Jacob all the pagan idols they had, as well as their earrings, and he buried them under the oak tree at Shechem.
5 Potom otidoše. A strah Božji doðe na gradove koji bijahu oko njih, te se ne digoše u potjeru za sinovima Izrailjevijem.
As they left on their journey, the terror of God spread over all the surrounding towns, so nobody tried to retaliate against Jacob's sons.
6 I Jakov i sva èeljad što bijaše s njim doðoše u Luz u zemlji Hananskoj, a to je Vetilj.
Jacob and everyone with him arrived at Luz (also known as Bethel) in the country of Canaan.
7 I ondje naèini žrtvenik, i nazva ono mjesto: Bog Vetiljski, jer mu se ondje javi Bog, kad je bježao od brata svojega.
He built an altar there and called the place El-Bethel, because that was where God had appeared to him when he was running away from his brother Esau.
8 Tada umrije Devora dojkinja Reveèina, i pogreboše je ispod Vetilja pod hrastom, koji nazva Jakov Alon-Vakut.
Deborah, Rebekah's nurse, died and was buried under the oak near Bethel. So it was named “the oak of weeping.”
9 I javi se Bog Jakovu opet, pošto izide iz Padan-Arama, i blagoslovi ga,
God appeared to Jacob again and blessed him after his return from Paddan-aram.
10 I reèe mu Bog: ime ti je Jakov; ali se otsele neæeš zvati Jakov, nego æe ti ime biti Izrailj. I nadjede mu ime Izrailj.
God told him, “Jacob will not be your name any longer. Instead of Jacob your name will be Israel.” So God called him Israel.
11 I još mu reèe Bog: ja sam Bog svemoguæi; rasti i množi se; narod i mnogi æe narodi postati od tebe, i carevi æe izaæi iz bedara tvojih.
Then God said, “I am God Almighty! Reproduce, increase, and you will become a nation—in fact a group of nations—and kings will be among your descendants.
12 I daæu ti zemlju koju sam dao Avramu i Isaku, i nakon tebe sjemenu tvojemu daæu zemlju ovu.
I will give to you and to your descendants the land I also gave to Abraham and Isaac.”
13 Potom otide od njega Bog s mjesta gdje mu govori.
Then God left the place where he had been speaking to Jacob.
14 A Jakov metnu spomenik na istom mjestu gdje mu Bog govori; spomenik od kamena, i pokropi ga kropljenjem, i preli ga uljem.
Afterwards Jacob set up a stone pillar where God had spoken with him. He poured out a drink offering on it, and also olive oil.
15 I Jakov prozva mjesto gdje mu govori Bog Vetilj.
Jacob called the place Bethel, because he had spoken with God there.
16 I otidoše od Vetilja. A kad im osta još malo puta do Efrate, porodi se Rahilja, i bješe joj težak poroðaj.
Then they moved on from Bethel. While they were still some distance from Ephrath, Rachel went into labor and had great difficulty giving birth.
17 I kad se veoma muèaše, reèe joj babica: ne boj se, imaæeš još jednoga sina.
When she was in the worst birth-pains, the midwife told her, “Don't give up—you have another son!”
18 A kad se rastavljaše s dušom te umiraše, nazva ga Venonija; ali mu otac nadjede ime Venijamin.
But she was dying, and with her last breath she named him Benoni. But his father named him Benjamin.
19 I umrije Rahilja, i pogreboše je na putu koji ide u Efratu, a to je Vitlejem.
Rachel died and was buried on the way to Ephrath (also known as Bethlehem).
20 I metnu Jakov spomenik na grob njezin. To je spomenik na grobu Rahiljinu do današnjega dana.
Jacob set up a stone memorial over Rachel's grave, and it's still there to this day.
21 Odatle otišav Izrailj razape šator svoj iza kule Migdolederske.
Israel moved on and camped beyond the watch tower at Eder.
22 I kad Izrailj življaše u onoj zemlji, otide Ruvim i leže s Valom inoèom oca svojega. I to doèu Izrailj. A imaše Jakov dvanaest sinova.
During the time he was living there, Reuben went and slept with Bilhah, his father's concubine, and Israel found out about it. These were the twelve sons of Jacob:
23 Sinovi Lijini bjehu: Ruvim prvenac Jakovljev, i Simeun i Levije i Juda i Isahar i Zavulon;
The sons of Leah: Reuben (Jacob's firstborn), Simeon, Levi, Judah, Issachar, and Zebulun.
24 A sinovi Rahiljini: Josif i Venijamin;
The sons of Rachel: Joseph and Benjamin.
25 A sinovi Vale robinje Rahiljine: Dan i Neftalim;
The sons of Rachel's personal maid Bilhah: Dan and Naphtali.
26 A sinovi Zelfe robinje Lijine: Gad i Asir. To su sinovi Jakovljevi, koji mu se rodiše u Padan-Aramu.
The sons of Leah's personal maid Zilpah: Gad and Asher. These were the sons of Jacob, who were born to him while in Paddan-aram.
27 I Jakov doðe k Isaku ocu svojemu u Mamriju u Kirijat-Arvu, koje je Hevron, gdje Avram i Isak bijahu došljaci.
Jacob returned home to his father Isaac at Mamre, near Kiriath-arba (also known as Hebron), where Abraham and Isaac had lived.
28 A Isaku bješe sto i osamdeset godina;
Isaac lived to be 180
29 I onemoæav umrije Isak, i bi pribran k rodu svojemu star i sit života; i pogreboše ga Isav i Jakov sinovi njegovi.
when he breathed his last and died at an old age. He had lived a full life, and now he joined his forefathers in death. His sons Esau and Jacob buried him.
