< 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.
God said to Jacob, “Arise, go up to Bethel, and live there. Make there an altar to God, who appeared to you when you fled from the face of Esau your brother.”
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;
Then Jacob said to his household, and to all who were with him, “Put away the foreign gods that are amongst you, purify yourselves, and change your garments.
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.
Let’s arise, and go up to Bethel. I will make there an altar to God, who answered me in the day of my distress, and was with me on the way which 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 gave to Jacob all the foreign gods which were in their hands, and the rings which were in their ears; and Jacob hid them under the oak which was by Shechem.
5 Potom otidoše. A strah Božji doðe na gradove koji bijahu oko njih, te se ne digoše u potjeru za sinovima Izrailjevijem.
They travelled, and a terror of God was on the cities that were around them, and they didn’t pursue the sons of Jacob.
6 I Jakov i sva èeljad što bijaše s njim doðoše u Luz u zemlji Hananskoj, a to je Vetilj.
So Jacob came to Luz (that is, Bethel), which is in the land of Canaan, he and all the people who were with him.
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 Beth El; because there God was revealed to him, when he fled from the face of his brother.
8 Tada umrije Devora dojkinja Reveèina, i pogreboše je ispod Vetilja pod hrastom, koji nazva Jakov Alon-Vakut.
Deborah, Rebekah’s nurse, died, and she was buried below Bethel under the oak; and its name was called Allon Bacuth.
9 I javi se Bog Jakovu opet, pošto izide iz Padan-Arama, i blagoslovi ga,
God appeared to Jacob again, when he came from Paddan Aram, and blessed him.
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 said to him, “Your name is Jacob. Your name shall not be Jacob any more, but your name will be Israel.” He named 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.
God said to him, “I am God Almighty. Be fruitful and multiply. A nation and a company of nations will be from you, and kings will come out of your body.
12 I daæu ti zemlju koju sam dao Avramu i Isaku, i nakon tebe sjemenu tvojemu daæu zemlju ovu.
The land which I gave to Abraham and Isaac, I will give it to you, and to your offspring after you I will give the land.”
13 Potom otide od njega Bog s mjesta gdje mu govori.
God went up from him in the place where he spoke with him.
14 A Jakov metnu spomenik na istom mjestu gdje mu Bog govori; spomenik od kamena, i pokropi ga kropljenjem, i preli ga uljem.
Jacob set up a pillar in the place where he spoke with him, a pillar of stone. He poured out a drink offering on it, and poured oil on it.
15 I Jakov prozva mjesto gdje mu govori Bog Vetilj.
Jacob called the name of the place where God spoke with him “Bethel”.
16 I otidoše od Vetilja. A kad im osta još malo puta do Efrate, porodi se Rahilja, i bješe joj težak poroðaj.
They travelled from Bethel. There was still some distance to come to Ephrath, and Rachel travailed. She had hard labour.
17 I kad se veoma muèaše, reèe joj babica: ne boj se, imaæeš još jednoga sina.
When she was in hard labour, the midwife said to her, “Don’t be afraid, for now you will have another son.”
18 A kad se rastavljaše s dušom te umiraše, nazva ga Venonija; ali mu otac nadjede ime Venijamin.
As her soul was departing (for she died), 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 called Bethlehem).
20 I metnu Jakov spomenik na grob njezin. To je spomenik na grobu Rahiljinu do današnjega dana.
Jacob set up a pillar on her grave. The same is the Pillar of Rachel’s grave to this day.
21 Odatle otišav Izrailj razape šator svoj iza kule Migdolederske.
Israel travelled, and spread his tent beyond the tower of 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.
While Israel lived in that land, Reuben went and lay with Bilhah, his father’s concubine, and Israel heard of it. Now the sons of Jacob were twelve.
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 Bilhah (Rachel’s servant): 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 Zilpah (Leah’s servant): Gad and Asher. These are the sons of Jacob, who were born to him 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 came to Isaac his father, to Mamre, to Kiriath Arba (which is Hebron), where Abraham and Isaac lived as foreigners.
28 A Isaku bješe sto i osamdeset godina;
The days of Isaac were one hundred and eighty years.
29 I onemoæav umrije Isak, i bi pribran k rodu svojemu star i sit života; i pogreboše ga Isav i Jakov sinovi njegovi.
Isaac gave up the spirit and died, and was gathered to his people, old and full of days. Esau and Jacob, his sons, buried him.
