Genesis 44

1 Then he instructed the manager of his house, saying, "Fill the men's sacks with as much food as they can carry, and put each man's silver in the mouth of his sack.

I zapovjedi Josif èovjeku što upravljaše kuæom njegovom govoreæi: naspi ovijem ljudima u vreæe žita koliko mogu ponijeti, i svakome u vreæu metni ozgo novce njegove.

2 Put my cup, the silver cup, in the sack's mouth of the youngest, along with the silver for his grain." So he did according to the word that Joseph had told him.

I èašu moju, èašu srebrnu, metni najmlaðemu u vreæu ozgo i novce za njegovo žito. I uèini kako mu Josif reèe.

3 As soon as the morning dawned, the men were sent off along with their donkeys.

A ujutru kad svanu, otpustiše ljude s magarcima njihovijem.

4 When they were far from the city, Joseph said to his manager, "Up, go after the men, and when you overtake them, ask them, 'Why have you repaid evil for good?

A kad izaðoše iz mjesta i još ne bijahu daleko, reèe Josif èovjeku što upravljaše kuæom njegovom: ustani, idi brže za onijem ljudima, i kad ih stigneš reci im: zašto vraæate zlo za dobro?

5 Why have you stolen my silver cup? Isn't it from this that my lord drinks and by which he indeed uses for divination? You have done evil in doing this.'"

Nije li to èaša iz koje pije moj gospodar? i neæe li po njoj zacijelo poznati kakvi ste? zlo ste radili što ste to uèinili.

6 And he caught up with them and spoke these words to them.

I on ih stiže, i reèe im tako.

7 But they said to him, "Why does my lord speak such words as these? Far be it from your servants that they should do such a thing.

A oni mu rekoše: zašto govoriš, gospodaru, take rijeèi? Saèuvaj Bože da sluge tvoje uèine tako što!

8 Look, the money that we found in the mouths of our sacks we brought back to you from the land of Canaan. How then could we steal silver or gold from your lord's house?

Eno smo ti donijeli natrag iz zemlje Hananske novce koje naðosmo ozgo u vreæama svojim, pa kako bismo ukrali iz kuæe gospodara tvojega srebro ili zlato?

9 With whomever of your servants it is found, he must die, and we also will be my lord's slaves."

U kojega se izmeðu sluga tvojih naðe, onaj neka pogine, i svrh toga mi æemo biti robovi gospodaru mojemu.

10 And he said, "Very well, then, it will be as you say. The one with whom it is found will be my slave, but you will be blameless."

A on reèe: neka bude kako rekoste; ali u koga se naðe, onaj da mi bude rob, a vi ostali neæete biti krivi.

11 Then they hurried, and each man lowered his sack to the ground, and each man opened his sack.

I brže poskidaše svi na zemlju vreæe svoje, i razdriješiše svaki svoju vreæu.

12 And he searched, beginning with the oldest, and ending at the youngest. And the cup was found in Benjamin's sack.

A on stade tražiti poèev od najstarijega, i kad doðe na najmlaðega, naðe se èaša u vreæi Venijaminovoj.

13 Then they tore their clothes, and each man loaded his donkey and returned to the city.

Tada razdriješe haljine svoje, i natovarivši svaki svoj tovar na svojega magarca vratiše se u grad.

14 So Judah and his brothers came to Joseph's house, and he was still there, and they fell to the ground before him.

I doðe Juda s braæom svojom Josifu u kuæu, dok on još bijaše kod kuæe, i padoše pred njim na zemlju.

15 And Joseph said to them, "What is this deed that you have done? Didn't you know that a man like me can indeed practice divination?"

A Josif im reèe: šta ste to uèinili? zar nijeste znali da èovjek kao što sam ja može zacijelo doznati?

16 Then Judah said, "What can we say to my lord? What can we speak? And how can we clear ourselves? God has uncovered the guilt of your servants. Look, we are my lord's slaves, both we, and the one in whose possession the cup was found."

Tada reèe Juda: šta da ti reèemo, gospodaru? šta da govorimo? kako li da se pravdamo? Bog je otkrio zloèinstvo tvojih sluga. Evo, mi smo svi robovi tvoji, gospodaru, i mi i ovaj u koga se našla èaša.

17 But he said, "Far be it from me that I should do so. The man in whose possession the cup was found, he will be my slave. But as for you, go up to your father in peace."

A Josif reèe: Bože saèuvaj! neæu ja to; u koga se našla èaša on neka mi bude rob, a vi idite s mirom ocu svojemu.

18 Then Judah approached him, and said, "My lord, please allow your servant to speak a word in the ears of my lord, and do not become angry with your servant, for you are like Pharaoh himself.

Ali Juda pristupiv k njemu reèe: èuj me, gospodaru; dopusti da progovori sluga tvoj gospodaru svojemu, i neka se gnjev tvoj ne raspali na slugu tvojega, jer si ti kao sam Faraon.

19 My lord asked his servants, saying, 'Do you have a father or a brother?'

Gospodar moj zapita sluge svoje govoreæi: imate li oca ili brata?

20 And we said to my lord, 'We have a father, an old man, and a child born when he was old, a little one, and his brother is dead, and he is his mother's only child, and his father loves him.'

A mi rekosmo gospodaru svojemu: imamo stara oca i brata najmlaðega, koji mu se rodi u starosti; a njegov je brat umro, i on osta sam od matere svoje, i otac ga pazi.

21 Then you said to your servants, 'Bring him down to me, so that I can see him myself.'

A ti reèe slugama svojim: dovedite mi ga da ga vidim svojim oèima.

22 And we said to my lord, 'The boy can't leave his father: for if he should leave his father, his father would die.'

I rekosmo gospodaru svojemu: neæe moæi dijete ostaviti oca svojega; da ostavi oca svojega, odmah æe otac umrijeti.

23 But you said to your servants, 'Unless your youngest brother comes down with you, you will not see my face again.'

A ti reèe slugama svojim: ako ne doðe s vama brat vaš najmlaði, neæete više vidjeti lica mojega.

24 And it happened when we came up to your servant my father, we told him the words of my lord.

A kad se vratismo k sluzi tvojemu a ocu mojemu, kazasmo mu rijeèi gospodara mojega.

25 But our father said, 'Go again, buy us a little food.'

Poslije reèe nam otac: idite opet, kupite nam hrane.

26 We said, 'We can't go down. If our youngest brother is with us, then we will go down, for we cannot see the man's face unless our youngest brother is with us.'

A mi rekosmo: ne možemo iæi, osim ako bude brat naš najmlaði s nama, onda æemo iæi, jer ne možemo vidjeti lica onoga èovjeka, ako ne bude s nama brat naš najmlaði.

27 Then your servant my father said to us, 'You know that my wife bore me two sons.

A sluga tvoj, otac moj, reèe nam: znate da mi je žena rodila dva sina.

28 And the one disappeared from me, and I said, "Surely he is torn in pieces." And I haven't seen him since.

I jedan od njih otide od mene, i rekoh: zacijelo ga je raskinula zvjerka; i do sada ga ne vidjeh.

29 If you take this one also from me, and harm happens to him, you will bring down my gray hairs with sorrow to Sheol. (Sheol h7585)

Ako i ovoga odvedete od mene i zadesi ga kakvo zlo, svaliæete me stara u grob s tugom. (Sheol h7585)

30 So now, when I come to your servant my father and the boy is not with us, since his life is bound up in the boy's life,

Pa sada da otidem k sluzi tvojemu, ocu svojemu, a ovo dijete da ne bude s nama, kako je duša onoga vezana za dušu ovoga,

31 it will happen, when he sees that the boy is not with us, that he will die. Your servants will bring down the gray hairs of your servant our father with sorrow to Sheol. (Sheol h7585)

Umrijeæe kad vidi da nema djeteta, te æe sluge tvoje svaliti staroga slugu tvojega a oca svojega s tugom u grob. (Sheol h7585)

32 For your servant became collateral for the boy to my father, saying, 'If I do not bring him to you, then I will bear the blame to my father forever.'

A tvoj se sluga podjemèio za dijete ocu svojemu rekav: ako ti ga ne dovedem natrag, da sam kriv ocu svojemu dovijeka.

33 So now, please let your servant remain instead of the boy, a slave to my lord, and let the boy go up with his brothers.

Zato neka sluga tvoj ostane mjesto djeteta da bude rob gospodaru mojemu a dijete neka ide s braæom svojom.

34 For how will I go up to my father if the boy isn't with me? I could not bear to see the misery that would come on my father."

Jer kako bih se vratio k ocu svojemu bez djeteta, da gledam jade koji bi mi oca zadesili?
