Genesis 22

NEW JERUSALEM	Biblija Hrvatski
1 It happened some time later that God put Abraham to the test. 'Abraham, Abraham!' he called. 'Here Iam,' he replied.	1 Poslije tih događaja Bog stavi Abrahama na kušnju. Zovnu ga: »Abrahame!« On odgovori: »Evo me!«
2 God said, 'Take your son, your only son, your beloved Isaac, and go to the land of Moriah, where youare to offer him as a burnt offering on one of the mountains which I shal point out to you.'	2 Bog nastavi: »Uzmi svoga sina, jedinca svoga Izaka koga ljubiš, i pođi u krajinu Moriju pa ga ondje prinesi kao žrtvu paljenicu na brdu koje ću ti pokazati.«
3 Early next morning Abraham saddled his donkey and took with him two of his servants and his sonIsaac. He chopped wood for the burnt offering and started on his journey to the place which God had indicated tohim.	3 Ujutro Abraham podrani, osamari magarca, sa sobom povede dvojicu svojih slugu i svog sina Izaka, pošto je prije nacijepao drva za žrtvu paljenicu, i uputi se na mjesto koje mu je Bog označio.
4 On the third day Abraham looked up and saw the place in the distance.	4 Treći dan Abraham podigne oči i opazi mjesto izdaleka.
5 Then Abraham said to his servants, 'Stay here with the donkey. The boy and I are going over there;we shal worship and then come back to you.'	5 Abraham onda reče slugama: »Vi ostanite ovdje uz magarca, a ja i dječak odosmo gore da se poklonimo, pa ćemo se vratiti k vama.«
6 Abraham took the wood for the burnt offering, loaded it on Isaac, and carried in his own hands the fireand the knife. Then the two of them set out together.	6 Abraham uzme drva za žrtvu paljenicu, stavi ih na sina Izaka, a u svoju ruku uzme kremen i nož. Tako pođu obojica zajedno.
7 Isaac spoke to his father Abraham. 'Father?' he said. 'Yes, my son,' he replied. 'Look,' he said, 'hereare the fire and the wood, but where is the lamb for the burnt offering?'	7 Onda Izak reče svome ocu Abrahamu: »Oče!« »Evo me, sine!« – javi se on. »Evo kremena i drva«, opet će sin, »ali gdje je janje za žrtvu paljenicu?«
8 Abraham replied, 'My son, God himself wil provide the lamb for the burnt offering.' And the two ofthem went on together.	8 »Bog će već providjeti janje za žrtvu paljenicu, sine moj!« – odgovori Abraham. I nastave put.
9 When they arrived at the place which God had indicated to him, Abraham built an altar there, andarranged the wood. Then he bound his son and put him on the altar on top of the wood.	9 Stignu na mjesto o kojemu je Bog govorio. Ondje Abraham podigne žrtvenik, naslaže drva, sveže svog sina Izaka i položi ga po drvima na žrtvenik.
10 Abraham stretched out his hand and took the knife to kill his son.	10 Pruži sad Abraham ruku i uzme nož da zakolje svog sina.
11 But the angel of Yahweh cal ed to him from heaven. 'Abraham, Abraham!' he said. 'Here I am,' hereplied.	11 Uto ga zovne s neba anđeo Jahvin i poviče: »Abrahame! Abrahame!« »Evo me!« – odgovori on.
12 'Do not raise your hand against the boy,' the angel said. 'Do not harm him, for now I know you fearGod. You have not refused me your own beloved son.'	12 »Ne spuštaj ruku na dječaka«, reče, »niti mu što čini! Sad, evo, znam da se Boga bojiš, jer nisi uskratio ni svog sina, jedinca svoga.«
13 Then looking up, Abraham saw a ram caught by its horns in a bush. Abraham took the ram andoffered it as a burnt offering in place of his son.	13 Podiže Abraham oči i pogleda, i gle – za njim ovan, rogovima se zapleo u grmu. Tako Abraham ode, uzme ovna i prinese ga za žrtvu paljenicu mjesto svoga sina.
14 Abraham cal ed this place 'Yahweh provides', and hence the saying today: 'On the mountain Yahwehprovides.'	14 Onome mjestu Abraham dade ime »Jahve proviđa«. Zato se danas veli: »Na brdu Jahvina proviđanja.«
15 The angel of Yahweh cal ed Abraham a second time from heaven.	15 Anđeo Jahvin zovne Abrahama s neba drugi put
16 'I swear by my own self, Yahweh declares, that because you have done this, because you have notrefused me your own beloved son,	16 i reče: »Kunem se samim sobom, izjavljuje Jahve: Kad si to učinio i nisi mi uskratio svog jedinca sina,
17 I wil shower blessings on you and make your descendants as numerous as the stars of heaven andthe grains of sand on the seashore. Your descendants wil gain possession of the gates of their enemies.	17 svoj ću blagoslov na te izliti i učiniti tvoje potomstvo brojnim poput zvijezda na nebu i pijeska na obali morskoj! A tvoji će potomci osvajati vrata svojih neprijatelja.
18 Al nations on earth wil bless themselves by your descendants, because you have obeyed mycommand.'	18 Budući da si poslušao moju zapovijed, svi će se narodi zemlje blagoslivljati tvojim potomstvom.«
19 Abraham went back to his servants, and together they set out for Beersheba, and Abraham settled inBeersheba.	19 Zatim se Abraham vrati k svojim slugama pa se zajedno upute u Beer Šebu. U Beer Šebi se Abraham nastani.
20 It happened some time later that Abraham received word that Milcah, too, had now borne sons to hisbrother Nahor:	20 Poslije tih događaja obavijeste Abrahama: »I tvome bratu Nahoru Milka je porodila djecu:
21 Uz his first-born, Buz his brother, Kemuel father of Aram,	21 njegova prvorođenca Usa, brata mu Buza i Kemuela – oca Aramova,
22 Chesed, Hazo, Pildash, Jidlaph, Bethuel	22 Keseda, Haza, Pildaša, Jidlafa i Betuela.«
23 (and Bethuel was the father of Rebekah). These were the eight children Milcah gave Nahor,Abraham's brother.	23 Betuel je bio otac Rebekin. Njih je osam rodila Milka Nahoru, Abrahamovu bratu.
24 He had a concubine named Reumah, and she too had children: Tebah, Gaham, Tahash andMaacah.	24 A i njegova suložnica, kojoj bijaše ime Reuma, rodila je Tebaha, Gahama, Tahaša i Maaku.
