Genesis 44
1 Then commanded he him who was over his house saying—Fill the sacks of the men, with food, as much 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 and my cup—the cup of silver, shalt thou put in the mouth of the sack of the youngest, with his corn-silver. So he did, according to the word of Joseph, which he had spoken.
I èašu moju, èašu srebrnu, metni najmlaðemu u vreæu ozgo i novce za njegovo žito. I uèini kako mu Josif reèe.
3 By the time, the morning, was light, the men, had been sent away, they, and their asses.
A ujutru kad svanu, otpustiše ljude s magarcima njihovijem.
4 They themselves, had gone out of the city—they had not gone far, when Joseph said to him who was over his house, Rise chase after the men, —so shalt thou overtake them and shalt say unto them, Wherefore have ye requited 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 Is not this that in which my lord drinketh, and whereby, he himself, doth divine? Ye have done evil in what ye have done.
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 So he overtook them, —and spake unto them these words.
I on ih stiže, i reèe im tako.
7 And they said unto him, Wherefore should my lord speak such words as these? Far be thy servants, from doing such a thing as this!
A oni mu rekoše: zašto govoriš, gospodaru, take rijeèi? Saèuvaj Bože da sluge tvoje uèine tako što!
8 Lo! the silver that we found in the mouth of our sacks, we brought back unto thee out of the land of Canaan, —how then could we steal out of the house of thy lord, silver or gold?
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 whomsoever of thy servants it can be found, he shall die, —and, we also, will become my lord’s servants.
U kojega se izmeðu sluga tvojih naðe, onaj neka pogine, i svrh toga mi æemo biti robovi gospodaru mojemu.
10 And he said, Yea, now, according to your words, so, let it be, —he with whom it is found, shall be my servant, Ye, however, shall be clear.
A on reèe: neka bude kako rekoste; ali u koga se naðe, onaj da mi bude rob, a vi ostali neæete biti krivi.
11 So they hastened and took down each man his sack to the ground, —and opened each man his sack.
I brže poskidaše svi na zemlju vreæe svoje, i razdriješiše svaki svoju vreæu.
12 Then made he thorough search, with the eldest, he began, and with the youngest, he ended, —and the cup was found in the sack of Benjamin!
A on stade tražiti poèev od najstarijega, i kad doðe na najmlaðega, naðe se èaša u vreæi Venijaminovoj.
13 And they rent their mantles, —and laded each man his ass, and returned to the city.
Tada razdriješe haljine svoje, i natovarivši svaki svoj tovar na svojega magarca vratiše se u grad.
14 And Judah and his brethren came into the house of Joseph, he, yet being there, —and fell down before him to the earth.
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 which ye have done? Know ye not that such a man as I, can even divine?
A Josif im reèe: šta ste to uèinili? zar nijeste znali da èovjek kao što sam ja može zacijelo doznati?
16 Then said Judah—What shall we say to my lord, how shall we speak and how shall we justify ourselves, —when, God himself, hath found out the iniquity of thy servants? Behold us! my lord’s servants, both we, and he in whose hand the cup hath been 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 And he said, Far be it from me to do this thing! The man in whose hand the cup hath been found, he, shall be my servant, but as for you, go ye up in peace unto your father.
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 drew near unto him, and said—Pardon my lord! Pray let thy servant speak a word in the ears of my lord, and do not let thine anger be kindled against thy servant, —for, thus, art, thou as Pharaoh!
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 It was, my lord, who asked his servants, saying, —Have ye a father, or a brother?
Gospodar moj zapita sluge svoje govoreæi: imate li oca ili brata?
20 So we said unto my lord, We have an aged father, and the child of his old age a youth, —his brother, being dead, he alone, is left of his mother and, his father, loveth 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 So then thou saidst unto thy servants, Bring him down unto me, —that I may set mine eyes upon him.
A ti reèe slugama svojim: dovedite mi ga da ga vidim svojim oèima.
22 And we said unto my lord, The lad cannot leave his father, —as surely as he leaveth his father, so surely will he, die.
I rekosmo gospodaru svojemu: neæe moæi dijete ostaviti oca svojega; da ostavi oca svojega, odmah æe otac umrijeti.
23 And thou saidst unto thy servants, Except your youngest brother do come down with you, ye shall not again behold my face.
A ti reèe slugama svojim: ako ne doðe s vama brat vaš najmlaði, neæete više vidjeti lica mojega.
24 So it came to pass when we had gone up unto thy servant, my father, that we told him the words of my lord.
A kad se vratismo k sluzi tvojemu a ocu mojemu, kazasmo mu rijeèi gospodara mojega.
25 Then said our father, —Go again buy us a little food,
Poslije reèe nam otac: idite opet, kupite nam hrane.
26 And we said, We cannot go down, —If our youngest brother be with us, then will we go down, for we cannot see the face of the man if, our youngest brother, is not 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 said thy servant my father, unto us, —Ye yourselves, know, that, two, did my wife bear to me,
A sluga tvoj, otac moj, reèe nam: znate da mi je žena rodila dva sina.
28 and the one went forth from me, and I said—Certainly he hath been, torn in pieces, —And I have never seen him since.
I jedan od njih otide od mene, i rekoh: zacijelo ga je raskinula zvjerka; i do sada ga ne vidjeh.
29 As surely as ye take, this one also, away from before my face and there befall him any mischief, so surely shall ye bring down my grey hairs, with misfortune to hades. (Sheol h7585)
Ako i ovoga odvedete od mene i zadesi ga kakvo zlo, svaliæete me stara u grob s tugom. (Sheol h7585)
30 Now, therefore, as surely as I go in unto thy servant my father, and, the lad, is not with us, —seeing that his soul is bound up with the lad’s soul,
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 so surely shall it come to pass that when he seeth that the lad is not with us, then will he die. So shall thy servants bring down the grey hairs of thy servant our father, with sorrow to hades. (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 thy servant, became surety for the lad, while away from my father saying, —If I bring him not unto thee, then will I count myself a sinner against my father all the days.
A tvoj se sluga podjemèio za dijete ocu svojemu rekav: ako ti ga ne dovedem natrag, da sam kriv ocu svojemu dovijeka.
33 Now, therefore, I pray thee let thy servant remain instead of the lad, as servant to my lord, —but as for the lad, let him go up with his brethren.
Zato neka sluga tvoj ostane mjesto djeteta da bude rob gospodaru mojemu a dijete neka ide s braæom svojom.
34 For how can I go up unto my father, should the lad, not be with me? lest I look on the calamity, that shall find out my father,
Jer kako bih se vratio k ocu svojemu bez djeteta, da gledam jade koji bi mi oca zadesili?
