Postanak 47

1 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.

Then Joseph went in and told Pharaoh, and said, "My father and my brothers, with their flocks, their herds, and all that they own, have come from the land of Canaan. And look, they are in the land of Goshen."

2 I uzev nekolicinu braæe svoje, pet ljudi, izvede ih pred Faraona.

And from among his brothers he took five men and presented them before Pharaoh.

3 A Faraon reèe braæi njegovoj: kakvu radnju radite? A oni rekoše Faraonu: pastiri su sluge tvoje, i mi i naši stari.

Then Pharaoh said to his brothers, "What is your occupation?" And they said to Pharaoh, "Your servants are shepherds, both we, and our fathers."

4 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.

And they said to Pharaoh, "We have come to sojourn in the land, for there is no pasture for your servants' flocks. For the famine is severe in the land of Canaan. So now, please let your servants live in the land of Goshen."

5 A Faraon reèe Josifu: otac tvoj i braæa tvoja doðoše k tebi;

Then Pharaoh spoke to Joseph, saying, "Your father and your brothers have come to you,

6 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.

and the land of Egypt is before you. Settle your father and your brothers in the best of the land. They may live in the land of Goshen. If you know any able men among them, then put them in charge of my livestock."

7 Poslije dovede Josif i Jakova oca svojega i izvede ga pred Faraona, i blagoslovi Jakov Faraona.

Then Joseph brought in his father Jacob, and presented him before Pharaoh, and Jacob blessed Pharaoh.

8 A Faraon reèe Jakovu: koliko ti ima godina?

And Pharaoh said to Jacob, "How many are the days of the years of your life?"

9 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.

So Jacob said to Pharaoh, "The days of the years of my sojourning are one hundred thirty years. Few and difficult have been the years of my life, and they have not attained to the days of the years of the life of my fathers in the days of their sojourning."

10 I blagosloviv Jakov Faraona otide od Faraona.

Then Jacob blessed Pharaoh and went out from Pharaoh's presence.

11 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.

Joseph settled his father and his brothers, and gave them property in the land of Egypt, in the best of the land, in the land of Rameses, as Pharaoh had commanded.

12 I hranjaše Josif hljebom oca svojega i braæu svoju i sav dom oca svojega do najmanjega.

And Joseph provided food for his father, his brothers, and all of his father's household, according to the number of their dependents.

13 Ali nesta hljeba u svoj zemlji, jer glad bijaše vrlo velika, i uzmuèi se zemlja Misirska i zemlja Hananska od gladi.

Now there was no food in all the land, for the famine was very severe, so that the land of Egypt and the land of Canaan grew weak because of the famine.

14 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.

Joseph gathered up all of the money to be found in the land of Egypt and in the land of Canaan, for the grain they were purchasing. And Joseph brought the money into Pharaoh's treasury.

15 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?

And when the money was all spent in the land of Egypt and in the land of Canaan, all the Egyptians came to Joseph and said, "Give us food, for why should we die in your presence? For our money is gone."

16 A Josif im govoraše: dajte stoku svoju, pa æu vam dati hljeba za stoku, kad je nestalo novaca.

Then Joseph said, "Give me your livestock and I will give you food for your livestock, if your silver is gone."

17 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.

So they brought their livestock to Joseph, and Joseph gave them food in exchange for the horses, and for the flocks, and for the cattle, and for the donkeys. And he fed them with food in exchange for all their livestock for that year.

18 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.

When that year was over, they came to him the next year and said to him, "We will not hide from my lord that all our silver is spent and that the herds of livestock belong to my lord. There is nothing left, as my lord can see, except our bodies and our lands.

19 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.

Why should we die before your eyes, both we and our land? Buy us and our land in exchange for food, and we and our land will be servants to Pharaoh. Give us seed so that we may live and not die, and that the land won't become desolate."

20 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.

So Joseph bought all the land of Egypt for Pharaoh, because every Egyptian sold his field, since the famine was severe on them. So the land became Pharaoh's.

21 A narod preseli u gradove od jednoga kraja Misira do drugoga.

And as for the people, he subjugated them as slaves from one end of the border of Egypt to the other end of it.

22 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.

Only he did not buy the land of the priests, for the priests had an allotment from Pharaoh, and they lived off their allotment which Pharaoh gave them. Therefore they did not have to sell their land.

23 A Josif reèe narodu: evo kupih danas vas i njive vaše Faraonu; evo vam sjemena, pa zasijte njive.

Then Joseph said to the people, "Look, I have bought you and your land today for Pharaoh. Look, here is seed for you so you can plant the seed in the land.

24 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.

And it will come to pass at the harvests that you must give a fifth to Pharaoh, and four-fifths will be yours for seed for the field, and for your food, and for those of your households, and as food for your little ones."

25 A oni rekoše: ti si nam život saèuvao; neka naðemo milost pred gospodarem svojim da budemo robovi Faraonu.

Then they said, "You have saved our lives. Let us find favor in the sight of my lord, and we will be Pharaoh's slaves."

26 I postavi Josif zakon do današnjega dana za njive Misirske da se daje peto Faraonu; samo njive sveštenièke ne postaše Faraonove.

So Joseph made it a statute still in effect for the land of Egypt, that a fifth must go to Pharaoh. Only the land of the priests alone did not become Pharaoh's.

27 A djeca Izrailjeva življahu u zemlji Misirskoj u kraju Gesemskom, i držahu ga, i narodiše se i namnožiše se veoma.

So Israel lived in the land of Egypt, in the land of Goshen. And they acquired property in it and were fertile and became numerous.

28 I Jakov poživje u zemlji Misirskoj sedamnaest godina; a svega bi Jakovu sto i èetrdeset i sedam godina.

And Jacob lived in the land of Egypt seventeen years. So the days of Jacob, the years of his life, were one hundred forty-seven years.

29 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;

And the time approached for Israel to die, so he summoned his son Joseph and said to him, "If now I have found favor in your sight, please put your hand under my thigh and deal kindly and truly with me. Please do not bury me in Egypt,

30 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.

but when I lie down with my fathers you must carry me out of Egypt and bury me in their burial place." And he said, "I will do what you have asked."

31 I reèe mu Jakov: zakuni mi se. I on mu se zakle. I pokloni se Izrailj preko uzglavlja od odra svojega.

Then he said, "Take an oath to me," and he took an oath to him. Then Israel bowed over the top of his staff.
