< Genesis 28 >

1 Isaac called Jacob, blessed him, and commanded him, "You must not take a wife from the daughters of Canaan.
Tada Isak dozva Jakova, i blagoslovi ga, i zapovjedi mu i reèe: nemoj da se oženiš kojom izmeðu kæeri Hananejskih.
2 Arise, go to Paddan Aram, to the house of Bethuel your mother's father. Take a wife from there from the daughters of Laban, your mother's brother.
Ustani, idi u Padan-Aram u dom Vatuila oca matere svoje, i odande se oženi izmeðu kæeri Lavana ujaka svojega.
3 May El Shaddai bless you, and make you fruitful, and multiply you, that you may be a company of peoples,
A Bog svemoguæi da te blagoslovi, i da ti da veliku porodicu i umnoži te, da od tebe postane mnoštvo naroda,
4 and give you the blessing of Abraham, to you, and to your descendants with you, that you may inherit the land where you travel, which God gave to Abraham."
I da ti da blagoslov Avramov, tebi i sjemenu tvojemu s tobom, da naslijediš zemlju u kojoj si došljak, koju Bog dade Avramu.
5 Isaac sent Jacob away. He went to Paddan Aram to Laban, son of Bethuel the Aramean, Rebekah's brother, Jacob's and Esau's mother.
Tako opravi Isak Jakova, i on poðe u Padan-Aram k Lavanu sinu Vatuila Sirina, bratu Reveke matere Jakovljeve i Isavove.
6 Now Esau saw that Isaac had blessed Jacob and sent him away to Paddan Aram, to take him a wife from there, and that as he blessed him he gave him a command, saying, "You must not take a wife from the daughters of Canaan,"
A Isav vidje gdje Isak blagoslovi Jakova i opravi ga u Padan-Aram da se odande oženi, i gdje blagosiljajuæi ga zapovjedi mu i reèe: nemoj da se oženiš kojom izmeðu kæeri Hananejskih,
7 and that Jacob obeyed his father and his mother, and left for Paddan Aram.
I gdje Jakov posluša oca svojega i mater svoju, i otide u Padan-Aram;
8 Esau saw that the daughters of Canaan did not please Isaac, his father.
I vidje Isav da kæeri Hananejske nijesu po volji Isaku ocu njegovu.
9 Esau went to Ishmael, and took, besides the wives that he had, Mahalath the daughter of Ishmael, Abraham's son, the sister of Nebaioth, to be his wife.
Pa otide Isav k Ismailu, i uze za ženu preko žena svojih Maeletu, kæer Ismaila sina Avramova, sestru Navajotovu.
10 Jacob went out from Beersheba, and went toward Haran.
A Jakov otide od Virsaveje iduæi u Haran.
11 He came to a certain place, and stayed there all night, because the sun had set. He took one of the stones of the place, and put it under his head, and lay down in that place to sleep.
I doðe na jedno mjesto, i ondje zanoæi, jer sunce bješe zašlo; i uze kamen na onom mjestu, i metnu ga sebi pod glavu, i zaspa na onom mjestu.
12 And he dreamed. And look, a stairway was set upon the earth, and its top reached to heaven. And look, the angels of God were ascending and descending on it.
I usni, a to ljestve stajahu na zemlji a vrhom ticahu u nebo, i gle, anðeli Božji po njima se penjahu i slažahu;
13 And God stood above it, and said, "I am the God of Abraham your grandfather, and the God of Isaac. The land on which you are lying I will give to you and to your descendants.
I gle, na vrhu stajaše Gospod, i reèe: ja sam Gospod Bog Avrama oca tvojega i Bog Isakov; tu zemlju na kojoj spavaš tebi æu dati i sjemenu tvojemu;
14 Your descendants will be as the dust of the earth, and you will spread out to the west, and to the east, and to the north, and to the south. And through you and through your descendants will all the families of the earth be blessed.
I sjemena æe tvojega biti kao praha na zemlji, te æeš se raširiti na zapad i na istok i na sjever i na jug, i svi narodi na zemlji blagosloviæe se u tebi i u sjemenu tvojem.
15 And look, I am with you, and will watch over you wherever you go, and will bring you again into this land. For I will not leave you, until I have done that which I have spoken of to you."
I evo, ja sam s tobom, i èuvaæu te kuda god poðeš, i dovešæu te natrag u ovu zemlju, jer te neæu ostaviti dokle god ne uèinim što ti rekoh.
16 Then Jacob woke up from his sleep, and said, "Surely God is in this place, and I did not know it."
A kad se Jakov probudi od sna, reèe: zacijelo je Gospod na ovom mjestu; a ja ne znah.
17 He was afraid, and said, "How awesome is this place. This is none other than God's house, and this is the gate of heaven."
I uplaši se, i reèe: kako je strašno mjesto ovo! ovdje je doista kuæa Božja, i ovo su vrata nebeska.
18 And Jacob rose up early in the morning, and took the stone that he had put under his head, and set it up as a standing-stone, and poured oil on top of it.
I usta Jakov ujutru rano, i uze kamen što bješe metnuo sebi pod glavu, i utvrdi ga za spomen i preli ga uljem.
19 He called the name of that place Bethel, though previously the city was named Luz.
I prozva ono mjesto Vetilj, a preðe bješe ime onome gradu Luz.
20 Then Jacob made a vow, saying, "If God will be with me, and will watch over me on this journey I am taking, and will give me food to eat, and clothing to put on,
I uèini Jakov zavjet, govoreæi: ako Bog bude sa mnom i saèuva me na putu kojim idem i da mi hljeba da jedem i odijela da se oblaèim,
21 so that I return to my father's house safely, then he will be my God,
I ako se vratim na miru u dom oca svojega, Gospod æe mi biti Bog;
22 and this stone, which I have set up as a standing-stone, will be God's house. Of all that you will give me I will surely give the tenth to you."
A kamen ovaj koji utvrdih za spomen biæe dom Božji; i što mi god daš, od svega æu deseto dati tebi.
