< Genesis 35 >

1 And God said to Jacob, Arise, go up to Bethel, and dwell there: and make there an altar to God, that appeared to you when you fled from the face of Esau your brother.
Bog reče Jakovu: “Ustani, idi gore u Betel te ondje ostani! Načini ondje žrtvenik Bogu koji ti se objavio kad si bježao od svoga brata Ezava!”
2 Then Jacob said to his household, and to all that were with him, Put away the strange gods that are among you, and be clean, and change your garments:
I Jakov reče svojoj obitelji i svima koji bijahu s njime: “Odbacite tuđe kumire koji se nalaze u vašoj sredini; očistite se i preobucite.
3 And let us arise, and go up to Bethel; and I will make there an altar to God, who answered me in the day of my distress, and was with me in the way which I went.
Idemo gore u Betel; ondje ću načiniti žrtvenik Bogu, koji me uslišao kad sam bio u nevolji i sa mnom bio na putu kojim sam hodio.”
4 And they gave to Jacob all the strange gods which were in their hand, and all their earrings which were in their ears; and Jacob hid them under the oak which was by Shechem.
Oni predaju Jakovu sve tuđe kumire što su ih imali i naušnice što su bile o njihovim ušima, pa ih Jakov zakopa pod hrast kod Šekema.
5 And they journeyed: and the terror of God was on the cities that were round about them, and they did not pursue after the sons of Jacob.
Kad su se zaputili, strah od Boga spopadne okolišna mjesta, tako da nisu išli u potjeru za Jakovljevim sinovima.
6 So Jacob came to Luz, which is in the land of Canaan, that is, Bethel, he and all the people that were with him.
Jakov stigne u Luz, to jest Betel, u zemlji kanaanskoj, i sav puk što je bio s njim.
7 And he built there an altar, and called the place Elbethel: because there God appeared to him, when he fled from the face of his brother.
Ondje sagradi žrtvenik i mjesto nazva El Betel, jer mu se ondje Bog objavio kad on bježaše pred svojim bratom Ezavom.
8 But Deborah Rebekah’s nurse died, and she was buried beneath Bethel under an oak: and the name of it was called Allonbachuth.
Tada umre Rebekina dojilja Debora te je sahraniše pod Betelom, pod hrastom, koji se otad zove “Tužni hrast”.
9 And God appeared to Jacob again, when he came out of Padanaram, and blessed him.
Bog se opet objavi Jakovu kad je stigao iz Padan Arama, te ga blagoslovi.
10 And God said to him, Your name is Jacob: your name shall not be called any more Jacob, but Israel shall be your name: and he called his name Israel.
Bog mu reče: “Ime ti je Jakov, ali se odsad nećeš zvati Jakov nego će Izrael biti tvoje ime.” Tako ga prozva Izraelom.
11 And God said to him, I am God Almighty: be fruitful and multiply; a nation and a company of nations shall be of you, and kings shall come out of your loins;
Onda mu Bog reče: “Ja sam El Šadaj - Bog Svesilni! Budi rodan i množi se! Od tebe poteći će narod, mnoštvo naroda, i kraljevi iz tvog će izaći krila.
12 And the land which I gave Abraham and Isaac, to you I will give it, and to your seed after you will I give the land.
Zemlju što je dadoh Abrahamu i Izaku tebi predajem; i potomstvu tvojem poslije tebe zemlju ću ovu dati.”
13 And God went up from him in the place where he talked with him.
A onda Bog ode od njega gore.
14 And Jacob set up a pillar in the place where he talked with him, even a pillar of stone: and he poured a drink offering thereon, and he poured oil thereon.
Na mjestu gdje je Bog s njim govorio Jakov uspravi stup, stup od kamena; na njemu prinese žrtvu i izli ulja.
15 And Jacob called the name of the place where God spoke with him, Bethel.
A mjesto gdje mu je Bog govorio Jakov nazva Betel.
16 And they journeyed from Bethel; and there was but a little way to come to Ephrath: and Rachel travailed, and she had hard labor.
Potom odu iz Betela. Još bijaše malo puta do Efrate, a Rahela se nađe pri porođaju. Napali je teški trudovi.
17 And it came to pass, when she was in hard labor, that the midwife said to her, Fear not; you shall have this son also.
Kad su joj porođajni bolovi bili najteži, reče joj babica: “Ne boj se jer ti je i ovo sin!”
18 And it came to pass, as her soul was in departing, (for she died) that she called his name Benoni: but his father called him Benjamin.
Kad se rastavljala s dušom - jer umiraše Rahela - nadjenu sinu ime Ben Oni; ali ga otac prozva Benjamin.
19 And Rachel died, and was buried in the way to Ephrath, which is Bethlehem.
Tako umrije Rahela. Sahrane je na putu u Efratu, to jest Betlehem.
20 And Jacob set a pillar on her grave: that is the pillar of Rachel’s grave to this day.
A na njezinu grobu Jakov podigne spomenik - onaj što je na Rahelinu grobu do danas.
21 And Israel journeyed, and spread his tent beyond the tower of Edar.
Izrael krenu dalje te razape svoj šator s onu stranu Migdal-Edera.
22 And it came to pass, when Israel dwelled in that land, that Reuben went and lay with Bilhah his father’s concubine: and Israel heard it. Now the sons of Jacob were twelve:
Dok je Izrael boravio u onom kraju, ode Ruben i legne s Bilhom, priležnicom svoga oca. Sazna za to Izrael. Izrael je imao dvanaest sinova.
23 The sons of Leah; Reuben, Jacob’s firstborn, and Simeon, and Levi, and Judah, and Issachar, and Zebulun:
S Leom: Rubena, koji je Jakovljev prvorođenac, Šimuna, Levija, Judu, Jisakara i Zebuluna;
24 The sons of Rachel; Joseph, and Benjamin:
s Rahelom: Josipa i Benjamina;
25 And the sons of Bilhah, Rachel’s handmaid; Dan, and Naphtali:
s Bilhom, Rahelinom sluškinjom: Dana i Naftalija;
26 And the sons of Zilpah, Leah’s handmaid: Gad, and Asher: these are the sons of Jacob, which were born to him in Padanaram.
sa Zilpom, sluškinjom Leinom: Gada i Ašera. To su Jakovljevi sinovi što su mu se rodili u Padan Aramu.
27 And Jacob came to Isaac his father to Mamre, to the city of Arbah, which is Hebron, where Abraham and Isaac sojourned.
Jakov dođe k svome ocu Izaku u Mamru u Kirjat Arbu, to je Hebron - gdje su boravili Abraham i Izak kao pridošlice.
28 And the days of Isaac were an hundred and fourscore years.
Kad je Izaku bilo sto i osamdeset godina, umrije.
29 And Isaac gave up the ghost, and died, and was gathered to his people, being old and full of days: and his sons Esau and Jacob buried him.
Izak izdahne i umre, starac i godinama zasićen, te bude pridružen svojim precima. Sahrane ga njegovi sinovi, Ezav i Jakov.
