Postanak 28
1 Tada Isak dozva Jakova, i blagoslovi ga, i zapovjedi mu i reèe: nemoj da se oženiš kojom izmeðu kæeri Hananejskih.
Isaac called Jacob, blessed him, and commanded him, "You must not take a wife from the daughters of Canaan.
2 Ustani, idi u Padan-Aram u dom Vatuila oca matere svoje, i odande se oženi izmeðu kæeri Lavana ujaka svojega.
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.
3 A Bog svemoguæi da te blagoslovi, i da ti da veliku porodicu i umnoži te, da od tebe postane mnoštvo naroda,
May El Shaddai bless you, and make you fruitful, and multiply you, that you may be a company of peoples,
4 I da ti da blagoslov Avramov, tebi i sjemenu tvojemu s tobom, da naslijediš zemlju u kojoj si došljak, koju Bog dade Avramu.
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."
5 Tako opravi Isak Jakova, i on poðe u Padan-Aram k Lavanu sinu Vatuila Sirina, bratu Reveke matere Jakovljeve i Isavove.
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.
6 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,
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,"
7 I gdje Jakov posluša oca svojega i mater svoju, i otide u Padan-Aram;
and that Jacob obeyed his father and his mother, and left for Paddan Aram.
8 I vidje Isav da kæeri Hananejske nijesu po volji Isaku ocu njegovu.
Esau saw that the daughters of Canaan did not please Isaac, his father.
9 Pa otide Isav k Ismailu, i uze za ženu preko žena svojih Maeletu, kæer Ismaila sina Avramova, sestru Navajotovu.
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.
10 A Jakov otide od Virsaveje iduæi u Haran.
Jacob went out from Beersheba, and went toward Haran.
11 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.
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.
12 I usni, a to ljestve stajahu na zemlji a vrhom ticahu u nebo, i gle, anðeli Božji po njima se penjahu i slažahu;
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.
13 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;
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.
14 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.
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.
15 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.
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."
16 A kad se Jakov probudi od sna, reèe: zacijelo je Gospod na ovom mjestu; a ja ne znah.
Then Jacob woke up from his sleep, and said, "Surely God is in this place, and I did not know it."
17 I uplaši se, i reèe: kako je strašno mjesto ovo! ovdje je doista kuæa Božja, i ovo su vrata nebeska.
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."
18 I usta Jakov ujutru rano, i uze kamen što bješe metnuo sebi pod glavu, i utvrdi ga za spomen i preli ga uljem.
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.
19 I prozva ono mjesto Vetilj, a preðe bješe ime onome gradu Luz.
He called the name of that place Bethel, though previously the city was named Luz.
20 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,
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,
21 I ako se vratim na miru u dom oca svojega, Gospod æe mi biti Bog;
so that I return to my father's house safely, then he will be my God,
22 A kamen ovaj koji utvrdih za spomen biæe dom Božji; i što mi god daš, od svega æu deseto dati tebi.
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."
