< Postanak 27 >

1 Ostarje Izak, vid mu se očinji gasio. Zato zovne svoga starijeg sina Ezava i reče mu: “Sine!” On mu odgovori: “Evo me!”
And it came to pass, that when Isaac was old, and his eyes were dim, so that he could not see, he called Esau his oldest son, and said to him, My son: and he said to him, Behold, here am I.
2 A on nastavi: “Vidiš, ostario sam, a ne znam dana svoje smrti.
And he said, Behold now, I am old, I know not the day of my death:
3 Zato uzmi svoju opremu, svoj tobolac i luk, pa idi u pustaru i ulovi mi divljači.
Now therefore take, I pray you, your weapons, your quiver and your bow, and go out to the field, and take me some venison;
4 Onda mi pripremi ukusan obrok, kako volim, te mi ga donesi da blagujem, pa da te mognem blagosloviti prije nego umrem.”
And make me savoury meat, such as I love, and bring it to me, that I may eat; that my soul may bless you before I die.
5 Rebeka je slušala dok je Izak govorio svome sinu Ezavu, i kad je Ezav otišao u pustaru da ulovi divljači svome ocu,
And Rebekah heard when Isaac spoke to Esau his son. And Esau went to the field to hunt for venison, and to bring it.
6 Rebeka reče svome sinu Jakovu: “Upravo sam čula kako tvoj otac govori tvome bratu Ezavu:
And Rebekah spoke to Jacob her son, saying, Behold, I heard your father speak to Esau your brother, saying,
7 'Donesi mi divljači te mi priredi ukusan obrok da blagujem pa da te pred licem Jahvinim blagoslovim prije nego umrem.'
Bring me venison, and make me savoury meat, that I may eat, and bless you before the LORD before my death.
8 A sad, sine moj, poslušaj me i učini kako ti naredim.
Now therefore, my son, obey my voice according to that which I command you.
9 Otiđi k stadu i odande mi donesi dva lijepa kozleta, a ja ću od njih prirediti ukusan obrok tvome ocu, kako on voli.
Go now to the flock, and fetch me from there two good kids of the goats; and I will make them savoury meat for your father, such as he loves:
10 Onda ti donesi svome ocu da jede te tebe mogne blagosloviti prije nego umre.”
And you shall bring it to your father, that he may eat, and that he may bless you before his death.
11 Ali Jakov odgovori svojoj majci Rebeki: “E, ali moj je brat Ezav runjav, a ja sam bez dlaka!
And Jacob said to Rebekah his mother, Behold, Esau my brother is a hairy man, and I am a smooth man:
12 Možda me se moj otac dotakne te ću u njegovim očima ispasti varalicom i na se svaliti prokletstvo, a ne blagoslov.”
My father peradventure will feel me, and I shall seem to him as a deceiver; and I shall bring a curse on me, and not a blessing.
13 Ali njegova mu majka odgovori: “Sine moj, tvoje prokletstvo neka padne na mene! Samo ti mene poslušaj, otiđi i donesi!”
And his mother said to him, On me be your curse, my son: only obey my voice, and go fetch me them.
14 Ode on, nađe i donese svojoj majci, a njegova majka priredi ukusan obrok, kako je njegov otac volio.
And he went, and fetched, and brought them to his mother: and his mother made savoury meat, such as his father loved.
15 Potom Rebeka uzme najljepše odijelo svoga starijeg sina Ezava što je u kući imala, pa u nj odjene svoga mlađeg sina Jakova.
And Rebekah took goodly raiment of her oldest son Esau, which were with her in the house, and put them on Jacob her younger son:
16 U kožu kozleta zamota mu ruke i goli dio vrata.
And she put the skins of the kids of the goats on his hands, and on the smooth of his neck:
17 Stavi zatim ukusan obrok i kruh što ga je pripravila na ruke svoga sina Jakova.
And she gave the savoury meat and the bread, which she had prepared, into the hand of her son Jacob.
18 Ode on k ocu i reče: “Oče!” On odgovori: “Evo me. Koji si ti moj sin?”
And he came to his father, and said, My father: and he said, Here am I; who are you, my son?
19 A Jakov odgovori svome ocu: “Ja sam Ezav, tvoj prvorođenac; učinio sam kako si mi rekao. Sad ustaj, sjedi pa jedi moje lovine, da me onda mogneš blagosloviti.”
And Jacob said to his father, I am Esau your first born; I have done according as you bade me: arise, I pray you, sit and eat of my venison, that your soul may bless me.
20 Izak upita svoga sina: “Kako si tako brzo uspio, sine moj?” On odgovori: “Jer mi je Jahve, Bog tvoj, bio milostiv.”
And Isaac said to his son, How is it that you have found it so quickly, my son? And he said, Because the LORD your God brought it to me.
21 Potom Izak reče Jakovu: “Primakni se, sine moj, da opipam jesi li ti zbilja moj sin Ezav ili nisi.”
And Isaac said to Jacob, Come near, I pray you, that I may feel you, my son, whether you be my very son Esau or not.
22 Jakov se primakne k svome ocu Izaku, koji ga opipa i reče: “Glas je Jakovljev, ali su ruke Ezavove.”
And Jacob went near to Isaac his father; and he felt him, and said, The voice is Jacob’s voice, but the hands are the hands of Esau.
23 Nije ga prepoznao jer su mu ruke bile runjave kao i ruke njegova brata Ezava. Kad ga je htio blagosloviti,
And he discerned him not, because his hands were hairy, as his brother Esau’s hands: so he blessed him.
24 upita još jednom: “Jesi li ti zaista moj sin Ezav?” Odgovori on: “Jesam.”
And he said, Are you my very son Esau? And he said, I am.
25 Potom reče Izak: “Stavi preda me da blagujem lovine svoga sina pa da te blagoslovi duša moja.” Jakov ga posluži pa je jeo. Zatim mu donese i vina, pa je pio.
And he said, Bring it near to me, and I will eat of my son’s venison, that my soul may bless you. And he brought it near to him, and he did eat: and he brought him wine and he drank.
26 Poslije toga reče mu njegov otac Izak: “Primakni se, sine moj, i poljubi me!”
And his father Isaac said to him, Come near now, and kiss me, my son.
27 Kad se primače i poljubi ga, Izak osjeti miris njegove odjeće pa ga blagoslovi: “Gle, miris sina mog nalik je mirisu polja koje Jahve blagoslovi.
And he came near, and kissed him: and he smelled the smell of his raiment, and blessed him, and said, See, the smell of my son is as the smell of a field which the LORD has blessed:
28 Neka ti Bog daje rosu s neba i rodnost zemlje: izobilje žita i mladoga vina.
Therefore God give you of the dew of heaven, and the fatness of the earth, and plenty of corn and wine:
29 Narodi ti služili, plemena ti se klanjala! Braćom svojom gospodari, nek sinci majke tvoje pred tobom padaju! Proklet bio tko tebe proklinje; blagoslovljen tko te blagoslivlje!”
Let people serve you, and nations bow down to you: be lord over your brothers, and let your mother’s sons bow down to you: cursed be every one that curses you, and blessed be he that blesses you.
30 Tek što se Jakov udaljio od svoga oca Izaka - pošto je Izak podijelio blagoslov Jakovu - njegov brat Ezav dođe iz lova.
And it came to pass, as soon as Isaac had made an end of blessing Jacob, and Jacob was yet scarce gone out from the presence of Isaac his father, that Esau his brother came in from his hunting.
31 I on priredi ukusan obrok i donese ga svome ocu. I reče svome ocu: “Ustani, oče moj, i blaguj od lovine svoga sina da me onda mogneš blagosloviti!”
And he also had made savoury meat, and brought it to his father, and said to his father, Let my father arise, and eat of his son’s venison, that your soul may bless me.
32 A njegov ga otac Izak zapita: “Tko si ti?” On odgovori: “Ja sam tvoj prvorođenac Ezav!”
And Isaac his father said to him, Who are you? And he said, I am your son, your firstborn Esau.
33 Izak se silno prepadne: “Pa tko je onda bio onaj što je divljači ulovio i meni već donio? Blagovao sam je prije nego si ti došao; onoga sam blagoslovio i blagoslovljen će ostati.”
And Isaac trembled very exceedingly, and said, Who? where is he that has taken venison, and brought it me, and I have eaten of all before you came, and have blessed him? yes, and he shall be blessed.
34 Kad je Ezav čuo riječi svoga oca, kriknu glasno i gorko zaplaka pa reče svome ocu: “I mene blagoslovi, oče!”
And when Esau heard the words of his father, he cried with a great and exceeding bitter cry, and said to his father, Bless me, even me also, O my father.
35 A on odvrati: “Brat tvoj dođe na prijevaru i odnese tvoj blagoslov.”
And he said, Your brother came with subtlety, and has taken away your blessing.
36 “Zato valjda što mu je ime Jakov, dvaput me već prevario”, reče Ezav. “Oduzeo mi prvorodstvo, a sad mi evo oduze i blagoslov.” Onda doda: “Zar za me nisi sačuvao nikakva blagoslova?”
And he said, Is not he rightly named Jacob? for he has supplanted me these two times: he took away my birthright; and, behold, now he has taken away my blessing. And he said, Have you not reserved a blessing for me?
37 Izak odgovori Ezavu: “Njega sam već postavio za tvoga gospodara; njemu sam svu njegovu braću predao za sluge; žitom sam ga i vinom opskrbio. A što sad za te mogu učiniti, sine moj?”
And Isaac answered and said to Esau, Behold, I have made him your lord, and all his brothers have I given to him for servants; and with corn and wine have I sustained him: and what shall I do now to you, my son?
38 Ezav odgovori svome ocu: “Zar ti, oče, raspolažeš samo jednim blagoslovom? Blagoslovi i mene, oče moj!” Ezav jecaše na sav glas.
And Esau said to his father, Have you but one blessing, my father? bless me, even me also, O my father. And Esau lifted up his voice, and wept.
39 Tada otac njegov Izak progovori i reče: “Daleko od plodna tla dom tvoj će biti, daleko od rose s neba.
And Isaac his father answered and said to him, Behold, your dwelling shall be the fatness of the earth, and of the dew of heaven from above;
40 Od mača svoga ćeš živjeti, brata svoga ćeš služiti. Ali jednom, kada se pobuniš, jaram ćeš njegov stresti sa svog vrata.”
And by your sword shall you live, and shall serve your brother; and it shall come to pass when you shall have the dominion, that you shall break his yoke from off your neck.
41 Ezav zamrzi Jakova zbog blagoslova kojim ga je otac njegov blagoslovio pa reče u sebi: “Čim dođu dani žalosti za mojim ocem, ubit ću ja svoga brata Jakova.”
And Esau hated Jacob because of the blessing with which his father blessed him: and Esau said in his heart, The days of mourning for my father are at hand; then will I slay my brother Jacob.
42 Kada su Rebeki javili te riječi što ih je izrekao njezin stariji sin Ezav, zovne ona svoga mlađeg sina Jakova te mu reče: “Pazi! Brat ti se Ezav nosi mišlju kako će te ubiti.
And these words of Esau her elder son were told to Rebekah: and she sent and called Jacob her younger son, and said to him, Behold, your brother Esau, as touching you, does comfort himself, purposing to kill you.
43 Ali ti, sine moj, poslušaj mene: odmah bježi mome bratu Labanu u Haran.
Now therefore, my son, obey my voice; arise, flee you to Laban my brother to Haran;
44 Ostani kod njega neko vrijeme, dok bijes brata tvoga na te jenja,
And tarry with him a few days, until your brother’s fury turn away;
45 dok se srdžba brata tvoga odvrati od tebe te on zaboravi što si mu učinio. Ja ću onda po te poslati i odande te dovesti. Zašto da vas obojicu izgubim u jedan dan!”
Until your brother’s anger turn away from you, and he forget that which you have done to him: then I will send, and fetch you from there: why should I be deprived also of you both in one day?
46 Potom Rebeka reče Izaku: “Moj mi je život dosadio zbog ovih žena Hetitkinja. Ako se i Jakov oženi kojom kao što su ove urođenice, Hetitkinjom, što će mi onda život!”
And Rebekah said to Isaac, I am weary of my life because of the daughters of Heth: if Jacob take a wife of the daughters of Heth, such as these which are of the daughters of the land, what good shall my life do me?
