Knjiga Postanka 26

Biblija Hrvatski	NEW JERUSALEM
1 U zemlji zavlada glad, različita od prijašnje što je bila za vrijeme Abrahama, pa Izak ode Abimeleku, kralju Filistejaca, u Geraru.	1 There was a famine in the country -- different from the previous famine which took place in the time ofAbraham -- and Isaac went to Abimelech, the Philistine king at Gerar.
2 Jahve mu se ukaza i reče: »Ne silazi u Egipat: boravi u zemlji koju ću ti označiti.	2 Yahweh had appeared to him and said, 'Do not go down to Egypt; stay in the country which I shalpoint out to you.
3 U ovoj se zemlji nastani, ja ću s tobom biti i blagoslivljati te; tebi i tvome potomstvu dat ću sve ove krajeve, da izvršim zakletvu kojom sam se zakleo tvome ocu Abrahamu.	3 Remain for the present in that country; I shal be with you and bless you, for I shal give al thesecountries to you and your descendants in fulfilment of the oath I swore to your father Abraham.
4 Tvoje ću potomstvo umnožiti kao zvijezde na nebesima i tvome ću potomstvu predati sve ove krajeve, tako da će se tvojim potomstvom blagoslivljati svi narodi zemlje;	4 I shal make your descendants as numerous as the stars of heaven, and I shal give them al thesecountries, and al nations on earth wil bless themselves by your descendants
5 a to zato što je Abraham slušao moj glas i pokoravao se mojim zapovijedima, mojim zakonima i odredbama!«	5 in return for Abraham's obedience; for he kept my charge, my commandments, my statutes and mylaws.'
6 Tako Izak ostane u Geraru.	6 So Isaac stayed at Gerar.
7 Kad su ga mještani pitali o njegovoj ženi, reče: »Ona mi je sestra.« Bojao se reći: »Ona mi je žena«, misleći: »Mještani bi me mogli ubiti zbog Rebeke jer je lijepa.«	7 When the people of the place asked him about his wife he replied, 'She is my sister,' for he was afraidto say, 'She is my wife,' thinking, 'The people of the place wil kil me because of Rebekah, since she is beautiful.'
8 Kako su se ondje duže zadržali, kralj Filistejaca Abimelek jednom pogleda kroz prozor i opazi kako Izak miluje svoju ženu Rebeku.	8 When he had been there some time, Abimelech the Philistine king happened to look out of the windowand saw Isaac fondling his wife Rebekah.
9 Nato Abimelek pozove Izaka te reče: »Tako, ona ti je žena! Kako si mogao reći da ti je sestra?« Izak mu odgovori: »Jer sam mislio da bih zbog nje mogao poginuti.«	9 Abimelech summoned Isaac and said to him, 'Surely she must be your wife! How could you have said,"She is my sister"?' Isaac replied, 'Because I thought I might be kil ed on her account.'
10 Abimelek reče: »Zašto si nam to učinio? Umalo netko od ljudi nije legao s tvojom ženom. Tako bi na nas svalio krivnju.«	10 Abimelech said, 'What a thing to do to us! One of the people might easily have slept with your wife.We should have incurred guilt, thanks to you.'
11 Onda Abimelek izda naredbu svemu narodu: »Tko se god dotakne ovog čovjeka i njegove žene, glavu će izgubiti.«	11 Then Abimelech issued this order to al the people: 'Whoever touches this man or his wife wil be putto death.'
12 Izak je sijao u onom kraju i one godine urodilo mu stostruko. Jahve ga blagoslivljao	12 Isaac sowed his crops in that country, and that year he reaped a hundredfold. Yahweh blessed him
13 te je čovjek bivao sve bogatiji, dok nije postao vrlo bogat.	13 and the man became rich; he prospered more and more until he was very rich indeed.
14 Stekao je stada ovaca i goveda i mnogu služinčad, tako da su mu Filistejci zavidjeli.	14 He acquired flocks and herds and a large retinue. The Philistines began to envy him.
15 Zato Filistejci zasuše sve bunare što su ih sluge njegova oca bile iskopale – u vrijeme njegova oca Abrahama – i napuniše ih zemljom.	15 The Philistines had blocked up al the wel s dug by his father's servants -- in the days of his fatherAbraham -- fil ing them in with earth.
16 Onda Abimelek reče Izaku: »Idi od nas jer si postao mnogo moćniji od nas!«	16 Then Abimelech said to Isaac, 'You must leave us, for you have become much more powerful thanwe are.'
17 Tako Izak ode odande, postavi svoj šator u gerarskoj dolini i nastani se ondje.	17 So Isaac left; he pitched camp in the Val ey of Gerar and there he stayed.
18 Izak opet iskopa bunare za vodu što su bili iskopani u vrijeme njegova oca Abrahama, a Filistejci ih bili zasuli poslije Abrahamove smrti. On ih je nazvao istim imenima kojima ih je zvao i njegov otac.	18 Isaac reopened the wel s dug by the servants of his father Abraham and blocked up by thePhilistines after Abraham's death, and he gave them the same names as his father had given them.
19 Ali kad su Izakove sluge, dok su u dolini kopale, ondje našle bunar sa živom vodom,	19 But when Isaac's servants, digging in the val ey, found a wel of spring-water there,
20 pastiri iz Gerara posvade se s Izakovim pastirima govoreći: »Naša je voda!« Bunaru je dao ime Esek, jer su se oni s njim svadili.	20 the herdsmen of Gerar disputed it with Isaac's herdsmen, saying, 'That water is ours!' So Isaacnamed the wel Esek, because they had disputed with him.
21 A kad su iskopali drugi bunar te se i zbog njega svađali, nazva ga imenom Sitna.	21 They dug another wel , and there was a dispute over that one too; so he named it Sitnah.
22 Odatle se preseli pa iskopa drugi bunar. Zbog njega se nisu svađali, pa ga nazove imenom Rehobot i protumači: »Jer nam je Jahve dao prostor da se na zemlji umnožimo.«	22 Then he left there, and dug another wel , and since there was no dispute over this one, he named itRehoboth, saying, 'Now Yahweh has made room for us to thrive in the country.'
23 Odande se popne u Beer Šebu.	23 From there he went up to Beersheba.
24 Iste mu se noći ukaže Jahve i reče: »Ja sam Bog oca tvoga Abrahama. Ne boj se, ja sam s tobom! Blagoslovit ću te, potomke ti umnožit’, zbog Abrahama, sluge svojega.«	24 Yahweh appeared to him the same night and said: I am the God of your father Abraham. Do not beafraid, for I am with you. I shall bless you and multiply your offspring for my servant Abraham's sake.
25 Izak tu podigne žrtvenik i zazove Jahvu po imenu; postavi ondje svoj šator, a njegove sluge počnu kopati bunar.	25 There he built an altar and invoked the name of Yahweh. There he pitched his tent, and there Isaac'sservants sank a wel .
26 Uto mu dođe Abimelek iz Gerara sa svojim savjetnikom Ahuzatom i s Fikolom, zapovjednikom vojske.	26 Abimelech came from Gerar to see him, with Ahuzzath his adviser and Phicol the commander of hisarmy.
27 Izak ih upita: »Zašto ste došli k meni kad me mrzite i kad ste me otjerali od sebe?«	27 Isaac said to them, 'Why do you come to me since you hate me, and have made me leave you?'
28 Oni odgovore: »Jasno vidimo da je Jahve s tobom. Stoga pomislismo: neka zakletva bude veza između nas i tebe. Daj da s tobom sklopimo savez:	28 'It became clear to us that Yahweh was with you,' they replied, 'and so we thought, "It is time to havea treaty sworn between us, between us and you." So let us make a covenant with you:
29 ti nama nećeš zla nanositi, kao što mi tebe nismo zlostavljali, nego uvijek prema tebi lijepo postupali i s mirom te otpustili. A blagoslov Jahvin bio nad tobom.«	29 that you will not do us any harm, since we never molested you but were unfailingly kind to you andlet you go away in peace. Henceforth, Yahweh's blessing on you!'
30 On im priredi gozbu te su jeli i pili.	30 He then made them a feast and they ate and drank.
31 Rano ujutro jedni se drugima zakunu. Potom ih Izak otpusti i oni od njega odu u miru.	31 Early next morning, they exchanged oaths. Then Isaac bade them farewell and they left him asfriends.
32 Toga istog dana dođu Izakove sluge i obavijeste ga o bunaru što su ga iskopali te mu reknu: »Našli smo vodu.«	32 It happened, the same day, that Isaac's servants brought him news about the well they had beendigging. 'We have found water!' they said to him.
33 On ga prozva Šiba. Zato je ime onom gradu do danas – Beer Šeba.	33 So he cal ed the wel Sheba, and hence the town is named Beersheba to this day.
34 Kad je Ezavu bilo četrdeset godina, uzme za ženu Juditu, kćer Hetita Beerija, i Basematu, kćer Hetita Elona.	34 When Esau was forty years old he married Judith daughter of Beeri the Hittite, and Basemathdaughter of Elon the Hittite.
35 One postadoše izvor ogorčenja Izaku i Rebeki.	35 These were a bitter disappointment to Isaac and Rebekah.
