< Genesis 47 >

1 Then Joseph came and told Pharaoh, and said, My father and my brethren, and their flocks, and their herds, and all that they have, are come out of the land of Canaan; and, behold, they are in the land of Goshen.
I otišav Josif javi Faraonu i reèe: otac moj i braæa moja s ovcama svojim i s govedima svojim i sa svijem što imaju doðoše iz zemlje Hananske, i evo ih u zemlji Gesemskoj.
2 And he took some of his brethren, even five men, and presented them unto Pharaoh.
I uzev nekolicinu braæe svoje, pet ljudi, izvede ih pred Faraona.
3 And Pharaoh said unto his brethren, What is your occupation? And they said unto Pharaoh, Thy servants are shepherds, both we, and also our fathers.
A Faraon reèe braæi njegovoj: kakvu radnju radite? A oni rekoše Faraonu: pastiri su sluge tvoje, i mi i naši stari.
4 They said moreover unto Pharaoh, For to sojourn in the land are we come; for thy servants have no pasture for their flocks; for the famine is sore in the land of Canaan: now therefore, we pray thee, let thy servants dwell in the land of Goshen.
Još rekoše Faraonu: doðosmo da živimo kao došljaci u ovoj zemlji, jer nema paše za stoku tvojih sluga, jer je velika glad u zemlji Hananskoj; a sada dopusti da žive u zemlji Gesemskoj sluge tvoje.
5 And Pharaoh spake unto Joseph, saying, Thy father and thy brethren are come unto thee:
A Faraon reèe Josifu: otac tvoj i braæa tvoja doðoše k tebi;
6 The land of Egypt is before thee; in the best of the land make thy father and brethren to dwell; in the land of Goshen let them dwell: and if thou knowest any men of activity among them, then make them rulers over my cattle.
U tvojoj je vlasti zemlja Misirska; na najboljem mjestu u ovoj zemlji naseli oca svojega i braæu svoju, neka žive u zemlji Gesemskoj; i ako koje znaš izmeðu njih da su vrijedni ljudi, postavi ih nad mojom stokom.
7 And Joseph brought in Jacob his father, and set him before Pharaoh: and Jacob blessed Pharaoh.
Poslije dovede Josif i Jakova oca svojega i izvede ga pred Faraona, i blagoslovi Jakov Faraona.
8 And Pharaoh said unto Jacob, How old art thou?
A Faraon reèe Jakovu: koliko ti ima godina?
9 And Jacob said unto Pharaoh, The days of the years of my pilgrimage are an hundred and thirty years: few and evil have the days of the years of my life been, and have not attained unto the days of the years of the life of my fathers in the days of their pilgrimage.
Odgovori Jakov Faraonu: meni ima sto i trideset godina, kako sam došljak. Malo je dana života mojega i zli su bili, niti stižu vijeka otaca mojih, koliko su oni živjeli.
10 And Jacob blessed Pharaoh, and went out from before Pharaoh.
I blagosloviv Jakov Faraona otide od Faraona.
11 And Joseph placed his father and his brethren, and gave them a possession in the land of Egypt, in the best of the land, in the land of Rameses, as Pharaoh had commanded.
A Josif naseli oca svojega i braæu svoju, i dade im dobro u zemlji Misirskoj na najboljem mjestu te zemlje, u zemlji Rameskoj, kao što zapovjedi Faraon.
12 And Joseph nourished his father, and his brethren, and all his father’s household, with bread, according to their families.
I hranjaše Josif hljebom oca svojega i braæu svoju i sav dom oca svojega do najmanjega.
13 And there was no bread in all the land; for the famine was very sore, so that the land of Egypt and all the land of Canaan fainted by reason of the famine.
Ali nesta hljeba u svoj zemlji, jer glad bijaše vrlo velika, i uzmuèi se zemlja Misirska i zemlja Hananska od gladi.
14 And Joseph gathered up all the money that was found in the land of Egypt, and in the land of Canaan, for the food which they bought: and Joseph brought the money into Pharaoh’s house.
I pokupi Josif sve novce što se nalažahu po zemlji Misirskoj i po zemlji Hananskoj za žito koje kupovahu, i slagaše novce u kuæu Faraonovu.
15 And when money failed in the land of Egypt, and in the land of Canaan, all the Egyptians came unto Joseph, and said, Give us bread: for why should we die in thy presence? for the money faileth.
A kad nesta novaca u zemlji Misirskoj i u zemlji Hananskoj, stadoše svi Misirci dolaziti k Josifu govoreæi: daj nam hljeba; zašto da mremo kod tebe, što novaca nema?
16 And Joseph said, Give your cattle; and I will give you for your cattle, if money fail.
A Josif im govoraše: dajte stoku svoju, pa æu vam dati hljeba za stoku, kad je nestalo novaca.
17 And they brought their cattle unto Joseph: and Joseph gave them bread in exchange for horses, and for the flocks, and for the cattle of the herds, and for the donkeys: and he fed them with bread for all their cattle for that year.
I dovoðahu stoku svoju k Josifu, i Josif im davaše hljeba za konje i za ovce i za goveda i za magarce. Tako ih prehrani onu godinu hljebom za svu stoku njihovu.
18 When that year was ended, they came unto him the second year, and said unto him, We will not hide it from my lord, how that our money is spent; my lord also hath our herds of cattle; there is not ought left in the sight of my lord, but our bodies, and our lands:
A kad proðe ona godina, stadoše opet dolaziti k njemu druge godine govoreæi: ne možemo tajiti od gospodara svojega, ali je novaca nestalo, i stoka koju imasmo u našega je gospodara; i nije ostalo ništa da donesemo gospodaru svojemu osim tjelesa naših i njiva naših.
19 Wherefore shall we die before thine eyes, both we and our land? buy us and our land for bread, and we and our land will be servants unto Pharaoh: and give us seed, that we may live, and not die, that the land be not desolate.
Zašto da mremo na tvoje oèi? evo i nas i naših njiva; kupi nas i njive naše za hljeb, da s njivama svojim budemo robovi Faraonu, i daj žita da ostanemo živi i ne pomremo i da zemlja ne opusti.
20 And Joseph bought all the land of Egypt for Pharaoh; for the Egyptians sold every man his field, because the famine prevailed over them: so the land became Pharaoh’s.
Tako pokupova Josif Faraonu sve njive u Misiru, jer Misirci prodavahu svaki svoju njivu, kad glad uze jako mah meðu njima. I zemlja posta Faraonova.
21 And as for the people, he removed them to cities from one end of the borders of Egypt even to the other end thereof.
A narod preseli u gradove od jednoga kraja Misira do drugoga.
22 Only the land of the priests bought he not; for the priests had a portion assigned them of Pharaoh, and did eat their portion which Pharaoh gave them: wherefore they sold not their lands.
Samo ne kupi sveštenièkih njiva; jer Faraon odredi dio sveštenicima, i hranjahu se od svojega dijela, koji im dade Faraon, te ne prodaše svojih njiva.
23 Then Joseph said unto the people, Behold, I have bought you this day and your land for Pharaoh: lo, here is seed for you, and ye shall sow the land.
A Josif reèe narodu: evo kupih danas vas i njive vaše Faraonu; evo vam sjemena, pa zasijte njive.
24 And it shall come to pass in the increase, that ye shall give the fifth part unto Pharaoh, and four parts shall be your own, for seed of the field, and for your food, and for them of your households, and for food for your little ones.
A što bude roda, daæete peto Faraonu, a èetiri dijela neka budu vama za sjeme po njivama i za hranu vama i onijema koji su po kuæama vašim i za hranu djeci vašoj.
25 And they said, Thou hast saved our lives: let us find grace in the sight of my lord, and we will be Pharaoh’s servants.
A oni rekoše: ti si nam život saèuvao; neka naðemo milost pred gospodarem svojim da budemo robovi Faraonu.
26 And Joseph made it a law over the land of Egypt unto this day, that Pharaoh should have the fifth part; except the land of the priests only, which became not Pharaoh’s.
I postavi Josif zakon do današnjega dana za njive Misirske da se daje peto Faraonu; samo njive sveštenièke ne postaše Faraonove.
27 And Israel dwelt in the land of Egypt, in the country of Goshen; and they had possessions therein, and grew, and multiplied exceedingly.
A djeca Izrailjeva življahu u zemlji Misirskoj u kraju Gesemskom, i držahu ga, i narodiše se i namnožiše se veoma.
28 And Jacob lived in the land of Egypt seventeen years: so the whole age of Jacob was an hundred forty and seven years.
I Jakov poživje u zemlji Misirskoj sedamnaest godina; a svega bi Jakovu sto i èetrdeset i sedam godina.
29 And the time drew nigh that Israel must die: and he called his son Joseph, and said unto him, If now I have found grace in thy sight, put, I pray thee, thy hand under my thigh, and deal kindly and truly with me; bury me not, I pray thee, in Egypt:
A kad se približi vrijeme Izrailju da umre, dozva sina svojega Josifa, i reèe mu: ako sam našao milost pred tobom, metni ruku svoju pod stegno moje, i uèini mi milost i vjeru, nemoj me pogrepsti u Misiru;
30 But I will lie with my fathers, and thou shalt carry me out of Egypt, and bury me in their buryingplace. And he said, I will do as thou hast said.
Nego neka ležim kod otaca svojih; i ti me odnesi iz Misira i pogrebi me u grobu njihovu. A on reèe: uèiniæu kako si kazao.
31 And he said, Swear unto me. And he sware unto him. And Israel bowed himself upon the bed’s head.
I reèe mu Jakov: zakuni mi se. I on mu se zakle. I pokloni se Izrailj preko uzglavlja od odra svojega.
