Genesis 20
1 Abraham traveled from there toward the land of the South, and lived between Kadesh and Shur. He lived as a foreigner in Gerar.
A Avram otide odande na jug, i stani se izmeðu Kadisa i Sura; i življaše kao došljak u Geraru.
2 Abraham said about Sarah his wife, “She is my sister.” Abimelech king of Gerar sent, and took Sarah.
I govoraše za ženu svoju Saru: sestra mi je. A car Gerarski Avimeleh posla, te uze Saru.
3 But God came to Abimelech in a dream of the night, and said to him, “Behold, you are a dead man, because of the woman whom you have taken; for she is a man’s wife.”
Ali doðe Bog Avimelehu noæu u snu, i reèe mu: gle, poginuæeš sa žene koju si uzeo, jer ima muža.
4 Now Abimelech had not come near her. He said, “Lord, will you kill even a righteous nation?
A Avimeleh ne bješe se nje dotakao, i zato reèe: Gospode, eda li æeš i pravedan narod pogubiti?
5 Didn’t he tell me, ‘She is my sister’? She, even she herself, said, ‘He is my brother.’ I have done this in the integrity of my heart and the innocence of my hands.”
Nije li mi sam kazao: sestra mi je? a i ona sama kaza: brat mi je. Uèinio sam u èistoti srca svojega i u pravdi ruku svojih.
6 God said to him in the dream, “Yes, I know that in the integrity of your heart you have done this, and I also withheld you from sinning against me. Therefore I didn’t allow you to touch her.
Tada mu reèe Bog u snu: znam da si uèinio u èistoti srca svojega, zato te saèuvah da mi ne sagriješiš, i ne dadoh da je se dotakneš.
7 Now therefore, restore the man’s wife. For he is a prophet, and he will pray for you, and you will live. If you don’t restore her, know for sure that you will die, you, and all who are yours.”
A sada vrati èovjeku ženu njegovu, jer je prorok, i moliæe se za te, te æeš ostati živ. Ako li ne vratiš, znaj da æeš umrijeti ti i svi tvoji.
8 Abimelech rose early in the morning, and called all his servants, and told all these things in their ear. The men were very scared.
I ujutru rano usta Avimeleh, i sazva sve sluge svoje, i kaza im sve ovo da èuju. I uplašiše se ljudi veoma.
9 Then Abimelech called Abraham, and said to him, “What have you done to us? How have I sinned against you, that you have brought on me and on my kingdom a great sin? You have done deeds to me that ought not to be done!”
Tada Avimeleh dozva Avrama i reèe mu: šta si nam uèinio? šta li sam ti zgriješio, te navuèe na me i na carstvo moje toliko zlo? Uèinio si mi što ne valja èiniti.
10 Abimelech said to Abraham, “What did you see, that you have done this thing?”
I još reèe Avimeleh Avramu: šta ti je bilo, te si to uèinio?
11 Abraham said, “Because I thought, ‘Surely the fear of God is not in this place. They will kill me for my wife’s sake.’
A Avram odgovori: veljah: jamaèno nema straha Božijega u ovom mjestu, pa æe me ubiti radi žene moje.
12 Besides, she is indeed my sister, the daughter of my father, but not the daughter of my mother; and she became my wife.
A upravo i jest mi sestra, kæi oca mojega; ali nije kæi moje matere, pa poðe za me.
13 When God caused me to wander from my father’s house, I said to her, ‘This is your kindness which you shall show to me. Everywhere that we go, say of me, “He is my brother.”’”
A kad me Bog izvede iz doma oca mojega, ja joj rekoh: uèini dobro, i kaži za me gdje god doðemo: brat mi je.
14 Abimelech took sheep and cattle, male servants and female servants, and gave them to Abraham, and restored Sarah, his wife, to him.
Tada Avimeleh uze ovaca i goveda i sluga i sluškinja, te dade Avramu, i vrati mu Saru ženu njegovu.
15 Abimelech said, “Behold, my land is before you. Dwell where it pleases you.”
I reèe Avimeleh Avramu: evo, zemlja ti je moja otvorena, živi slobodno gdje ti je volja.
16 To Sarah he said, “Behold, I have given your brother a thousand pieces of silver. Behold, it is for you a covering of the eyes to all that are with you. In front of all you are vindicated.”
A Sari reèe: evo dao sam tvojemu bratu tisuæu srebrnika; gle, on ti je oèima pokrivalo pred svima koji budu s tobom; i to sve da ti je za nauku.
17 Abraham prayed to God. So God healed Abimelech, his wife, and his female servants, and they bore children.
I Avram se pomoli Bogu, i iscijeli Bog Avimeleha i ženu njegovu i sluškinje njegove, te raðahu.
18 For the LORD had closed up tight all the wombs of the house of Abimelech, because of Sarah, Abraham’s wife.
Jer Gospod bješe sasvijem zatvorio svaku matericu u domu Avimelehovu radi Sare žene Avramove.
