WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 A Jakov ču gde sinovi Lavanovi govore: Jakov uze sve što beše našeg oca, i od onog što beše našeg oca steče sve ovo blago.
1 Y OÍA él las palabras de los hijos de Labán, que decían: Jacob ha tomado todo lo que era de nuestro padre; y de lo que era de nuestro padre ha adquirido toda esta grandeza.
1 Jacob heard Laban’s sons’ words, saying, “Jacob has taken away all that was our father’s. He has obtained all this wealth from that which was our father’s.”
2 I vide Jakov gde lice Lavanovo nije prema njemu kao pre.
2 Miraba también Jacob el semblante de Labán, y veía que no era para con él como ayer y antes de ayer.
2 Jacob saw the expression on Laban’s face, and, behold, it was not toward him as before.
3 I Gospod reče Jakovu: Vrati se u zemlju otaca svojih i u rod svoj, i ja ću biti s tobom.
3 También Jehová dijo á Jacob: Vuélvete á la tierra de tus padres, y á tu parentela; que yo seré contigo.
3 Yahweh said to Jacob, “Return to the land of your fathers, and to your relatives, and I will be with you.”
4 I poslavši Jakov dozva Rahilju i Liju u polje k stadu svom.
4 Y envió Jacob, y llamó á Rachêl y á Lea al campo á sus ovejas,
4 Jacob sent and called Rachel and Leah to the field to his flock,
5 I reče im: Vidim gde lice oca vašeg nije prema meni kao pre; ali je Bog oca mog bio sa mnom.
5 Y díjoles: Veo que el semblante de vuestro padre no es para conmigo como ayer y antes de ayer: mas el Dios de mi padre ha sido conmigo.
5 and said to them, “I see the expression on your father’s face, that it is not toward me as before; but the God of my father has been with me.
6 I vi znate da sam služio ocu vašem kako sam god mogao;
6 Y vosotras sabéis que con todas mis fuerzas he servido á vuestro padre:
6 You know that I have served your father with all of my strength.
7 a otac me je vaš varao i menjao mi platu deset puta; ali mu Bog ne dade da me ošteti;
7 Y vuestro padre me ha engañado, y me ha mudado el salario diez veces: pero Dios no le ha permitido que me hiciese mal.
7 Your father has deceived me, and changed my wages ten times, but God didn’t allow him to hurt me.
8 kad on reče: Šta bude šareno neka ti je plata, onda se mladilo sve šareno; a kad reče: S belegom šta bude neka ti je plata, onda se mladilo sve s belegom.
8 Si él decía así: Los pintados serán tu salario; entonces todas las ovejas parían pintados: y si decía así: Los listados serán tu salario; entonces todas las ovejas parían listados.
8 If he said, ‘The speckled will be your wages,’ then all the flock bore speckled. If he said, ‘The streaked will be your wages,’ then all the flock bore streaked.
9 Tako Bog uze stoku ocu vašem i dade je meni;
9 Así quitó Dios el ganado de vuestro padre, y diómelo á mí.
9 Thus God has taken away your father’s livestock, and given them to me.
10 jer kad se upaljivaše stoka, podigoh oči svoje i videh u snu, a to ovnovi i jarci što skaču na ovce i koze behu šareni, s belegama prutastim i kolastim.
10 Y sucedió que al tiempo que las ovejas se recalentaban, alcé yo mis ojos y vi en sueños, y he aquí los machos que cubrían á las hembras [eran] listados, pintados y abigarrados.
10 During mating season, I lifted up my eyes, and saw in a dream, and behold, the male goats which leaped on the flock were streaked, speckled, and grizzled.
11 A anđeo Gospodnji reče mi u snu: Jakove! A ja odgovorih: Evo me.
11 Y díjome el ángel de Dios en sueños: Jacob. Y yo dije: Heme aquí.
11 The angel of God said to me in the dream, ‘Jacob,’ and I said, ‘Here I am.’
12 A on reče: Podigni sad oči svoje i gledaj, ovnovi i jarci što skaču na ovce i koze, šareni su, s belegama prutastim i kolastim; jer videh sve što ti čini Lavan.
12 Y él dijo: Alza ahora tus ojos, y verás todos los machos que cubren á las ovejas listados, pintados y abigarrados; porque yo he visto todo lo que Labán te ha hecho.
12 He said, ‘Now lift up your eyes, and behold, all the male goats which leap on the flock are streaked, speckled, and grizzled, for I have seen all that Laban does to you.
13 Ja sam Bog od Vetilja, gde si prelio kamen i učinio mi zavet; ustani sada i idi iz ove zemlje, i vrati se na postojbinu svoju.
13 Yo soy el Dios de Beth-el, donde tú ungiste el título, y donde me hiciste un voto. Levántate ahora, y sal de esta tierra, y vuélvete á la tierra de tu naturaleza.
13 I am the God of Bethel, where you anointed a pillar, where you vowed a vow to me. Now arise, get out from this land, and return to the land of your birth.’”
14 Tada odgovori Rahilja i Lija, i rekoše mu: Eda li još imamo kakav deo i nasledstvo u domu oca svog?
14 Y respondió Rachêl y Lea, y dijéronle: ¿Tenemos ya parte ni heredad en la casa de nuestro padre?
14 Rachel and Leah answered him, “Is there yet any portion or inheritance for us in our father’s house?
15 Nije li nas držao kao tuđinke kad nas je prodao? Pa je još i naše novce jednako jeo.
15 ¿No nos tiene ya como por extrañas, pues que nos vendió, y aun se ha comido del todo nuestro precio?
15 Aren’t we considered as foreigners by him? For he has sold us, and has also used up our money.
16 Jer sve ovo blago što uze Gospod ocu našem, naše je i naše dece. Zato čini sve što ti je Gospod kazao.
16 Porque toda la riqueza que Dios ha quitado á nuestro padre, nuestra es y de nuestros hijos: ahora pues, haz todo lo que Dios te ha dicho.
16 For all the riches which God has taken away from our father are ours and our children’s. Now then, whatever God has said to you, do.”
17 I podiže se Jakov, i metnu decu svoju i žene svoje na kamile;
17 Entonces se levantó Jacob, y subió sus hijos y sus mujeres sobre los camellos.
17 Then Jacob rose up, and set his sons and his wives on the camels,
18 i odvede svu stoku svoju i sve blago što beše stekao, stoku koju beše stekao u Padan-Aramu, i pođe k Isaku ocu svom u zemlju hanansku.
18 Y puso en camino todo su ganado, y toda su hacienda que había adquirido, el ganado de su ganancia que había obtenido en Padan-aram, para volverse á Isaac su padre en la tierra de Canaán.
18 and he took away all his livestock, and all his possessions which he had gathered, including the livestock which he had gained in Paddan Aram, to go to Isaac his father, to the land of Canaan.
19 A Lavan beše otišao da striže ovce svoje; i Rahilja ukrade idole ocu svom.
19 Y Labán había ido á trasquilar sus ovejas: y Rachêl hurtó los ídolos de su padre.
19 Now Laban had gone to shear his sheep; and Rachel stole the teraphim that were her father’s.
20 I Jakov otide kradom od Lavana Sirina ne javivši mu da hoće da ide.
20 Y recató Jacob el corazón de Labán Arameo, en no hacerle saber que se huía.
20 Jacob deceived Laban the Syrian, in that he didn’t tell him that he was running away.
21 I pobeže sa svim blagom svojim, i podiže se te pređe preko vode, i uputi se ka gori Galadu.
21 Huyó, pues, con todo lo que tenía; y levantóse, y pasó el río, y puso su rostro al monte de Galaad.
21 So he fled with all that he had. He rose up, passed over the River, and set his face toward the mountain of Gilead.
22 A treći dan javiše Lavanu da je pobegao Jakov.
22 Y fué dicho á Labán al tercero día como Jacob se había huído.
22 Laban was told on the third day that Jacob had fled.
23 I uze sa sobom braću svoju, i pođe za njim u poteru, i za sedam dana stiže ga na gori Galadu.
23 Entonces tomó á sus hermanos consigo, y fué tras él camino de siete días, y alcanzóle en el monte de Galaad.
23 He took his relatives with him, and pursued him seven days’ journey. He overtook him in the mountain of Gilead.
24 Ali Bog dođe Lavanu Sirinu noću u snu, i reče mu: Čuvaj se da ne govoriš s Jakovom ni lepo ni ružno.
24 Y vino Dios á Labán Arameo en sueños aquella noche, y le dijo: Guárdate que no hables á Jacob descomedidamente.
24 God came to Laban the Syrian in a dream of the night, and said to him, “Be careful that you don’t speak to Jacob either good or bad.”
25 I stiže Lavan Jakova; a Jakov beše razapeo šator svoj na gori, pa i Lavan takođe razape svoj s braćom svojom na gori Galadu.
25 Alcanzó pues Labán á Jacob, y éste había fijado su tienda en el monte: y Labán plantó[la] con sus hermanos en el monte de Galaad.
25 Laban caught up with Jacob. Now Jacob had pitched his tent in the mountain, and Laban with his relatives encamped in the mountain of Gilead.
26 I Lavan reče Jakovu: Šta učini te kradom pobeže od mene i odvede kćeri moje kao na mač otete?
26 Y dijo Labán á Jacob: ¿Qué has hecho, que me hurtaste el corazón, y has traído á mis hijas como prisioneras de guerra?
26 Laban said to Jacob, “What have you done, that you have deceived me, and carried away my daughters like captives of the sword?
27 Zašto tajno pobeže i kradom otide od mene? Niti mi reče da te ispratim s veseljem i s pesmama, s bubnjevima i guslama?
27 ¿Por qué te escondiste para huir, y me hurtaste, y no me diste noticia, para que yo te enviara con alegría y con cantares, con tamborín y vihuela?
27 Why did you flee secretly, and deceive me, and didn’t tell me, that I might have sent you away with mirth and with songs, with tambourine and with harp;
28 Niti mi dade da izljubim sinove svoje i kćeri svoje? Ludo si radio.
28 Que aun no me dejaste besar mis hijos y mis hijas. Ahora locamente has hecho.
28 and didn’t allow me to kiss my sons and my daughters? Now you have done foolishly.
29 Mogao bih vam dosaditi; ali Bog oca vašeg noćas mi reče govoreći: Čuvaj se da ne govoriš s Jakovom ni lepo ni ružno.
29 Poder hay en mi mano para haceros mal: mas el Dios de vuestro padre me habló anoche diciendo: Guárdate que no hables á Jacob descomedidamente.
29 It is in the power of my hand to hurt you, but the God of your father spoke to me last night, saying, ‘Be careful that you don’t speak to Jacob either good or bad.’
30 Idi dakle kad si se tako uželeo kuće oca svog; ali zašto ukrade bogove moje?
30 Y ya que te ibas, porque tenías deseo de la casa de tu padre, ¿por qué me hurtaste mis dioses?
30 Now, you want to be gone, because you greatly longed for your father’s house, but why have you stolen my gods?”
31 A Jakov odgovori i reče: Bojah se i mišljah hoćeš silom oteti kćeri svoje od mene.
31 Y Jacob respondió, y dijo á Labán: Porque tuve miedo; pues dije, que quizá me quitarías por fuerza tus hijas.
31 Jacob answered Laban, “Because I was afraid, for I said, ‘Lest you should take your daughters from me by force.’
32 A bogove svoje u koga nađeš, onaj neka ne živi više; pred našom braćom traži šta je tvoje u mene, pa uzmi. Jer Jakov nije znao da ih je ukrala Rahilja.
32 En quien hallares tus dioses, no viva: delante de nuestros hermanos reconoce lo que yo tuviere tuyo, y llévatelo. Jacob no sabía que Rachêl los había hurtado.
32 Anyone you find your gods with shall not live. Before our relatives, discern what is yours with me, and take it.” For Jacob didn’t know that Rachel had stolen them.
33 I uđe Lavan u šator Jakovljev i u šator Lijin i u šator dveju robinja, i ne nađe ih; i izašav iz šatora Lijina uđe u šator Rahiljin.
33 Y entró Labán en la tienda de Jacob, y en la tienda de Lea, y en la tienda de las dos siervas, y no los halló, y salió de la tienda de Lea, y vino á la tienda de Rachêl.
33 Laban went into Jacob’s tent, into Leah’s tent, and into the tent of the two female servants; but he didn’t find them. He went out of Leah’s tent, and entered into Rachel’s tent.
34 A Rahilja uze idole i sakri ih pod samar kamile svoje i sede ozgo; i Lavan pipaše po celom šatoru, i ne nađe.
34 Y tomó Rachêl los ídolos, y púsolos en una albarda de un camello, y sentóse sobre ellos: y tentó Labán toda la tienda, y no los halló.
34 Now Rachel had taken the teraphim, put them in the camel’s saddle, and sat on them. Laban felt around all the tent, but didn’t find them.
35 A ona reče ocu svom: Nemoj se srditi, gospodaru, što ti ne mogu ustati, jer mi je šta u žena biva. Traživši dakle ne nađe idole svoje.
35 Y ella dijo á su padre: No se enoje mi señor, porque no me puedo levantar delante de ti; pues estoy con la costumbre de las mujeres. Y él buscó, pero no halló los ídolos.
35 She said to her father, “Don’t let my lord be angry that I can’t rise up before you; for I’m having my period.” He searched, but didn’t find the teraphim.
36 I Jakov se rasrdi, i stade koriti Lavana, i govoreći reče mu: Šta sam učinio, šta sam skrivio, te si me tako žestoko terao?
36 Entonces Jacob se enojó, y regañó con Labán; y respondió Jacob y dijo á Labán: ¿Qué prevaricación es la mía? ¿cuál es mi pecado, que con tanto ardor has venido en seguimiento mío?
36 Jacob was angry, and argued with Laban. Jacob answered Laban, “What is my trespass? What is my sin, that you have hotly pursued me?
37 Pipao si sav prtljag moj, pa šta si našao iz svoje kuće? Daj ovamo pred moju i svoju braću, neka rasude između nas dvojice.
37 Pues que has tentado todos mis muebles, ¿qué has hallado de todas las alhajas de tu casa? Ponlo aquí delante de mis hermanos y tuyos, y juzguen entre nosotros ambos.
37 Now that you have felt around in all my stuff, what have you found of all your household stuff? Set it here before my relatives and your relatives, that they may judge between us two.
38 Evo dvadeset godina bih kod tebe: ovce tvoje i koze tvoje ne jaloviše se, a ovnova iz stada tvog ne jedoh.
38 Estos veinte años he estado contigo: tus ovejas y tus cabras nunca abortaron, ni yo comí carnero de tus ovejas.
38 “These twenty years I have been with you. Your ewes and your female goats have not cast their young, and I haven’t eaten the rams of your flocks.
39 Šta bi zverje zaklalo nisam ti donosio, sam sam podmirivao; od mene si iskao što bi mi bilo ukradeno danju ili noću.
39 Nunca te traje lo arrebatado por las fieras; yo pagaba el daño; lo hurtado así de día como de noche, de mi mano lo requerías.
39 That which was torn of animals, I didn’t bring to you. I bore its loss. Of my hand you required it, whether stolen by day or stolen by night.
40 Danju me ubijaše vrućina a noću mraz; i san mi ne padaše na oči.
40 De día me consumía el calor, y de noche la helada, y el sueño se huía de mis ojos.
40 This was my situation: in the day the drought consumed me, and the frost by night; and my sleep fled from my eyes.
41 Tako mi je bio dvadeset godina u tvojoj kući; služio sam ti četrnaest godina za dva kćeri tvoje i šest godina za stoku tvoju, i platu si mi menjao deset puta.
41 Así he estado veinte años en tu casa: catorce años te serví por tus dos hijas, y seis años por tu ganado; y has mudado mi salario diez veces.
41 These twenty years I have been in your house. I served you fourteen years for your two daughters, and six years for your flock, and you have changed my wages ten times.
42 Da nije Bog oca mog, Bog Avramov, i strah Isakov bio sa mnom, bi me zacelo otpustio prazna. Ali je Bog video nevolju moju i trud ruku mojih, pa te ukori noćas.
42 Si el Dios de mi padre, el Dios de Abraham, y el temor de Isaac, no fuera conmigo, de cierto me enviarías ahora vacío: vió Dios mi aflicción y el trabajo de mis manos, y reprendióte anoche.
42 Unless the God of my father, the God of Abraham, and the fear of Isaac, had been with me, surely now you would have sent me away empty. God has seen my affliction and the labor of my hands, and rebuked you last night.”
43 A Lavan odgovori Jakovu i reče: Ove su kćeri moje kćeri, i ovi su sinovi moji sinovi, i ova stoka moja stoka, i šta god vidiš sve je moje; pa šta bih učinio danas kćerima svojim ili sinovima njihovim koje rodiše?
43 Y respondió Labán, y dijo á Jacob: Las hijas son hijas mías, y los hijos, hijos míos son, y las ovejas son mis ovejas, y todo lo que tú ves es mío: ¿y qué puedo yo hacer hoy á estas mis hijas, ó á sus hijos que ellas han parido?
43 Laban answered Jacob, “The daughters are my daughters, the children are my children, the flocks are my flocks, and all that you see is mine! What can I do today to these my daughters, or to their children whom they have borne?
44 Nego hajde da uhvatimo veru, ja i ti, da bude svedočanstvo između mene i tebe.
44 Ven pues ahora, y hagamos alianza yo y tú; y sea en testimonio entre mí y entre ti.
44 Now come, let’s make a covenant, you and I. Let it be for a witness between me and you.”
45 I Jakov uze kamen i utvrdi ga za spomen.
45 Entonces Jacob tomó una piedra, y levantóla por título.
45 Jacob took a stone, and set it up for a pillar.
46 I reče Jakov braći svojoj; nakupite kamenja. I nakupiše kamenja i složiše na gomilu, i jedoše na gomili.
46 Y dijo Jacob á sus hermanos: Coged piedras. Y tomaron piedras é hicieron un majano; y comieron allí sobre aquel majano.
46 Jacob said to his relatives, “Gather stones.” They took stones, and made a heap. They ate there by the heap.
47 I Lavan ga nazva Jegar-Sahadut, a Jakov ga nazva Galed.
47 Y llamólo Labán Jegar Sahadutha: y lo llamó Jacob Galaad.
47 Laban called it Jegar Sahadutha, but Jacob called it Galeed.
48 I reče Lavan: Ova gomila neka bude svedok između mene i tebe danas. Zato se prozva Galed.
48 Porque Labán dijo: Este majano es testigo hoy entre mí y entre ti; por eso fué llamado su nombre Galaad;
48 Laban said, “This heap is witness between me and you today.” Therefore it was named Galeed
49 A prozva se i Mispa, jer reče Lavan: Neka Gospod gleda između mene i tebe, kad ne uzmožemo videti jedan drugog.
49 Y Mizpa, por cuanto dijo: Atalaye Jehová entre mí y entre ti, cuando nos apartáremos el uno del otro.
49 and Mizpah, for he said, “Yahweh watch between me and you, when we are absent one from another.
50 Ako ucveliš kćeri moje i ako uzmeš žene preko mojih kćeri, neće čovek biti između nas nego gle Bog svedok između mene i tebe.
50 Si afligieres mis hijas, ó si tomares otras mujeres además de mis hijas, nadie está con nosotros; mira, Dios es testigo entre mí y entre ti.
50 If you afflict my daughters, or if you take wives in addition to my daughters, no man is with us; behold, God is witness between me and you.”
51 I još reče Lavan Jakovu: Gledaj ovu gomilu i gledaj ovaj spomenik, koji podigoh između sebe i tebe.
51 Dijo más Labán á Jacob: He aquí este majano, y he aquí este título, que he erigido entre mí y ti.
51 Laban said to Jacob, “See this heap, and see the pillar, which I have set between me and you.
52 Svedok je ova gomila i svedok je ovaj spomenik, da ni ja neću preći preko ove gomile k tebi ni ti k meni da nećeš preći preko ove gomile i spomenika ovog na zlo.
52 Testigo sea este majano, y testigo sea este título, que ni yo pasaré contra ti este majano, ni tú pasarás contra mí este majano ni este título, para mal.
52 May this heap be a witness, and the pillar be a witness, that I will not pass over this heap to you, and that you will not pass over this heap and this pillar to me, for harm.
53 Bog Avramov i bogovi Nahorovi, bogovi oca njihovog, neka sude među nama. A Jakov se zakle strahom oca svog Isaka.
53 El Dios de Abraham, y el Dios de Nachôr juzgue entre nosotros, el Dios de sus padres. Y Jacob juró por el temor de Isaac su padre.
53 The God of Abraham, and the God of Nahor, the God of their father, judge between us.” Then Jacob swore by the fear of his father, Isaac.
54 I Jakov prinese žrtvu na gori, i sazva braću svoju na večeru; i jedoše pa noćiše na gori.
54 Entonces Jacob inmoló víctimas en el monte, y llamó á sus hermanos á comer pan: y comieron pan, y durmieron aquella noche en el monte.
54 Jacob offered a sacrifice in the mountain, and called his relatives to eat bread. They ate bread, and stayed all night in the mountain.
55 A ujutru rano usta Lavan, i izljubi svoju unučad i kćeri svoje, i blagoslovi ih, pa otide, i vrati se u svoje mesto.
55 Y levantóse Labán de mañana, y besó sus hijos y sus hijas, y los bendijo; y retrocedió y volvióse á su lugar.
55 Early in the morning, Laban rose up, and kissed his sons and his daughters, and blessed them. Laban departed and returned to his place.
