Postanak 37
1 A Jakov življaše u zemlji gdje mu je otac bio došljak, u zemlji Hananskoj.
And Jacob dwelt in the land where his father sojourned, in the land of Chanaan.
2 Ovo su dogaðaji Jakovljevi. Josif kad bješe momak od sedamnaest godina, pasijaše stoku s braæom svojom, koju rodiše Vala i Zelfa žene oca njegova; i donošaše Josif zle glasove o njima ocu svojemu.
And these are the generations of Jacob. And Joseph was seventeen years old, feeding the sheep of his father with his brethren, being young; with the sons of Balla, and with the sons of Zelpha, the wives of his father; and Joseph brought to Israel their father their evil reproach.
3 A Izrailj ljubljaše Josifa najveæma izmeðu svijeh sinova svojih, jer mu se rodio pod starost; i naèini mu šarenu haljinu.
And Jacob loved Joseph more than all his sons, because he was to him the son of old age; and he made for him a coat of many colours.
4 A braæa videæi gdje ga otac ljubi najveæma izmeðu sve braæe njegove, stadoše mrziti na nj tako da mu ne mogahu lijepe rijeèi progovoriti.
And his brethren having seen that his father loved him more than all his sons, hated him, and could not speak anything peaceable to him.
5 Uz to usni Josif san i pripovjedi braæi svojoj, te oni još veæma omrznu na nj.
And Joseph dreamed a dream, and reported it to his brethren.
6 Jer im reèe: da èujete san što sam snio:
And he said to them, Hear this dream which I have dreamed.
7 Vezasmo snoplje u polju, pa moj snop usta i ispravi se, a vaši snopovi iðahu unaokolo i klanjahu se snopu mojemu.
I thought ye were binding sheaves in the middle of the field, and my sheaf stood up and was erected, and your sheaves turned round, and did obeisance to my sheaf.
8 Tada mu braæa rekoše: da neæeš još biti car nad nama i zapovijedati nam? Stoga još veæma stadoše mrziti na nj radi sanova njegovijeh i radi rijeèi njegovijeh.
And his brethren said to him, Shalt thou indeed reign over us, or shalt thou indeed be lord over us? And they hated him still more for his dreams and for his words.
9 Poslije opet usni drugi san, i pripovjedi braæi svojoj govoreæi: usnih opet san, a to se sunce i mjesec i jedanaest zvijezda klanjahu meni.
And he dreamed another dream, and related it to his father, and to his brethren, and said, Behold, I have dreamed another dream: as it were the sun, and the moon, and the eleven stars did me reverence.
10 A pripovjedi i ocu svojemu i braæi svojoj; ali ga otac prekori i reèe mu: kakav je to san što si snio? eda li æemo doæi ja i mati tvoja i braæa tvoja da se klanjamo tebi do zemlje?
And his father rebuked him, and said to him, What is this dream which thou hast dreamed? shall indeed both I and thy mother and thy brethren come and bow before thee to the earth?
11 I zaviðahu mu braæa; ali otac njegov èuvaše ove rijeèi.
And his brethren envied him; but his father observed the saying.
12 A kad braæa njegova otidoše da pasu stoku oca svojega kod Sihema,
And his brethren went to feed the sheep of their father to Sychem.
13 Reèe Izrailj Josifu: ne pasu li braæa tvoja stoku kod Sihema? hajde da te pošljem k njima. A on reèe: evo me.
And Israel said to Joseph, Do not thy brethren feed their flock in Sychem? Come, I will send thee to them; and he said to him, Behold, I [am here].
14 A on mu reèe: idi, vidi kako su braæa tvoja i kako je stoka, pa doði da mi javiš. I opravi ga iz doline Hevronske, i on otide put Sihema.
And Israel said to him, Go and see if thy brethren and the sheep are well, and bring me word; and he sent him out of the valley of Chebron, and he came to Sychem.
15 I èovjek jedan naðe ga a on luta po polju, te ga zapita govoreæi: šta tražiš?
And a man found him wandering in the field; and the man asked him, saying, What seekest thou?
16 A on reèe: tražim braæu svoju; kaži mi, molim te, gdje su sa stokom?
And he said, I am seeking my brethren; tell me where they feed [their flocks].
17 A èovjek reèe: otišli su odavde, jer èuh gdje rekoše: hajdemo u Dotaim. I otide Josif za braæom svojom, i naðe ih u Dotaimu.
And the man said to him, They have departed hence, for I heard them saying, Let us go to Dothaim; and Joseph went after his brethren, and found them in Dothaim.
18 A oni ga ugledaše izdaleka; i dok još ne doðe blizu njih, stadoše se dogovarati da ga ubiju,
And they spied him from a distance before he drew nigh to them, and they wickedly took counsel to slay him.
19 I rekoše meðu sobom: gle, evo onoga što sne sanja.
And each said to his brother, Behold, that dreamer comes.
20 Hajde sada da ga ubijemo i da ga bacimo u koju od ovijeh jama, pa æemo kazati: ljuta ga je zvjerka izjela. Onda æemo vidjeti šta æe biti od njegovijeh sanova.
Now then come, let us kill him, and cast him into one of the pits; and we will say, An evil wild beast has devoured him; and we shall see what his dreams will be.
21 Ali Ruvim kad èu to, izbavi ga iz ruku njihovijeh rekav: nemojte da ga ubijemo.
And Ruben having heard it, rescued him out of their hands, and said, Let us not kill him.
22 I još im reèe Ruvim: nemojte krvi proljevati; bacite ga u ovu jamu u pustinji, a ne dižite ruke na nj. A on ga šæaše izbaviti iz ruku njihovijeh i odvesti k ocu.
And Ruben said to them, Shed not blood; cast him into one of these pits in the wilderness, but do not lay [your] hands upon him; that he might rescue him out of their hands, and restore him to his father.
23 I kad Josif doðe k braæi svojoj, svukoše s njega haljinu njegovu, haljinu šarenu, koju imaše na sebi.
And it came to pass, when Joseph came to his brethren, that they stripped Joseph of his many-coloured coat that was upon him.
24 I uhvativši ga baciše ga u jamu; a jama bješe prazna, ne bješe vode u njoj.
And they took him and cast him into the pit; and the pit was empty, it had not water.
25 Poslije sjedoše da jedu. I podigavši oèi ugledaše, a to gomila Ismailjaca iðaše od Galada s kamilama natovarenim mirisavoga korijenja i tamjana i smirne, te nošahu u Misir.
And they sat down to eat bread; and having lifted up their eyes they beheld, and lo, Ismaelitish travellers came from Galaad, and their camels were heavily loaded with spices, and resin, and myrrh; and they went to bring them to Egypt.
26 I reèe Juda braæi svojoj: kaka æe biti korist što æemo ubiti brata svojega i zatajiti krv njegovu?
And Judas said to his brethren, What profit is it if we slay our brother, and conceal his blood?
27 Hajde da ga prodamo ovijem Ismailjcima pa da ne dižemo ruke svoje na nj, jer nam je brat, naše je tijelo. I poslušaše ga braæa njegova.
Come, let us sell him to these Ismaelites, but let not our hands be upon him, because he is our brother and our flesh; and his brethren hearkened.
28 Pa kad trgovci Madijamski bijahu pored njih, oni izvukoše i izvadiše Josifa iz jame, i prodadoše Josifa Ismailjcima za dvadeset srebrnika; i oni odvedoše Josifa u Misir.
And the men, the merchants of Madian, went by, and they drew and lifted Joseph out of the pit, and sold Joseph to the Ismaelites for twenty pieces of gold; and they brought Joseph down into Egypt.
29 A kad se Ruvim vrati k jami, a to nema Josifa u jami; tada razdrije haljine svoje,
And Ruben returned to the pit, and sees not Joseph in the pit; and he rent his garments.
30 Pa se vrati k braæi svojoj, i reèe: nema djeteta; a ja kuda æu?
And he returned to his brethren and said, The boy is not; and I, whither am I yet to go?
31 Tada uzeše haljinu Josifovu, i zaklavši jare zamoèiše haljinu u krv,
And having taken the coat of Joseph, they slew a kid of the goats, and stained the coat with the blood.
32 Pa onda poslaše šarenu haljinu ocu njegovu poruèivši: naðosmo ovu haljinu, vidi je li haljina sina tvojega ili nije.
And they sent the coat of many colours; and they brought it to their father, and said, This have we found; know if it be thy son's coat or no. And he recognised it, and said, It is my son's coat, an evil wild beast has devoured him; a wild beast has carried off Joseph.
33 A on je pozna i reèe: sina je mojega haljina; ljuta ga je zvjerka izjela; Josif je doista raskinut.
34 I razdrije Jakov haljine svoje, i veza kostrijet oko sebe; i tužaše za sinom svojim dugo vremena.
And Jacob rent his clothes, and put sackcloth on his loins, and mourned for his son many days.
35 I svi sinovi njegovi i sve kæeri njegove ustadoše oko njega tješeæi ga, ali se on ne dadijaše utješiti, nego govoraše: s tugom æu u grob leæi za sinom svojim. Pa i njegov otac plakaše za njim. (Sheol h7585)
And all his sons and his daughters gathered themselves together, and came to comfort him; but he would not be comforted, saying, I will go down to my son mourning to Hades; and his father wept for him. (Sheol h7585)
36 A Madijanci prodadoše ga u Misir Petefriju, dvoraninu Faraonovu, zapovjedniku stražarskom.
And the Madianites sold Joseph into Egypt; to Petephres, the eunuch of Pharao, captain of the guard.
