1 A Jakov otide svojim putem; i sretoše ga anđeli Božiji;
1 Jacob went on his way, and the angels of God met him.
2 a kad ih ugleda Jakov, reče: Ovo je logor Božji. I prozva ono mesto Mahanaim.
2 When he saw them, Jacob said, “This is God’s army.” He called the name of that place Mahanaim.
3 I Jakov posla pred sobom glasnike k Isavu bratu svom u zemlju Sir, krajinu edomsku.
3 Jacob sent messengers in front of him to Esau, his brother, to the land of Seir, the field of Edom.
4 I zapovedi im govoreći: Ovako kažite gospodaru mom Isavu: Sluga tvoj Jakov ovako kaže: Bio sam došljak kod Lavana i bavio se do sad.
4 He commanded them, saying, “This is what you shall tell my lord, Esau: ‘This is what your servant, Jacob, says. I have lived as a foreigner with Laban, and stayed until now.
5 A imam volova i magaraca, ovaca i sluga, i sluškinja, i poslah da javim tebi gospodaru svom, eda bih našao milost pred tobom.
5 I have cattle, donkeys, flocks, male servants, and female servants. I have sent to tell my lord, that I may find favor in your sight.’”
6 I vratiše se glasnici k Jakovu i rekoše mu: Idosmo do brata tvog Isava, i eto on ti ide na susret s četiri stotine momaka.
6 The messengers returned to Jacob, saying, “We came to your brother Esau. He is coming to meet you, and four hundred men are with him.”
7 A Jakov se uplaši jako i zabrinu se; pa razdeli svoje ljude i ovce i goveda i kamile u dve čete.
7 Then Jacob was greatly afraid and was distressed. He divided the people who were with him, along with the flocks, the herds, and the camels, into two companies.
8 I reče: Ako Isav udari na jednu četu i razbije je, da ako druga uteče.
8 He said, “If Esau comes to the one company, and strikes it, then the company which is left will escape.”
9 I reče Jakov: Bože oca mog Avrama i Bože oca mog Isaka, Gospode, koji si mi kazao: Vrati se u zemlju svoju i u rod svoj, i ja ću ti biti dobrotvor!
9 Jacob said, “God of my father Abraham, and God of my father Isaac, Yahweh, who said to me, ‘Return to your country, and to your relatives, and I will do you good,’
10 Nisam vredan tolike milosti i tolike vere što si učinio sluzi svom; jer samo sa štapom svojim pređoh preko Jordana, a sada sam gospodar od dve čete.
10 I am not worthy of the least of all the loving kindnesses, and of all the truth, which you have shown to your servant; for with just my staff I crossed over this Jordan; and now I have become two companies.
11 Izbavi me iz ruke brata mog, iz ruke Isavove, jer se bojim da ne dođe i ubije mene i mater s decom.
11 Please deliver me from the hand of my brother, from the hand of Esau; for I fear him, lest he come and strike me and the mothers with the children.
12 A Ti si kazao: Zaista ja ću ti biti dobrotvor, i učiniću seme tvoje da bude kao peska morskog, koji se ne može izbrojati od množine.
12 You said, ‘I will surely do you good, and make your offspring as the sand of the sea, which can’t be counted because there are so many.’”
13 I zanoći onde onu noć, i uze šta mu dođe do ruke, da pošalje na dar Isavu bratu svom,
13 He stayed there that night, and took from that which he had with him a present for Esau, his brother:
14 dvesta koza s dvadeset jaraca, dvesta ovaca s dvadeset ovnova,
14 two hundred female goats and twenty male goats, two hundred ewes and twenty rams,
15 trideset kamila dojilica s kamiladima, četrdeset krava s desetoro teladi, dvadeset magarica s desetoro magaradi.
15 thirty milk camels and their colts, forty cows, ten bulls, twenty female donkeys and ten foals.
16 I predade ih slugama svojim, svako stado napose, i reče slugama: Idite napred preda mnom, ostavljajući dosta mesta između jednog stada i drugog.
16 He delivered them into the hands of his servants, every herd by itself, and said to his servants, “Pass over before me, and put a space between herd and herd.”
17 I zapovedi prvom govoreći: Kad sretneš Isava, brata mog, pa te zapita: Čiji si? I kuda ideš? I čije je to što goniš pred sobom?
17 He commanded the foremost, saying, “When Esau, my brother, meets you, and asks you, saying, ‘Whose are you? Where are you going? Whose are these before you?’
18 A ti reci: Sluge tvog Jakova, a ovo šalje na dar gospodaru svom Isavu, a eto i sam ide za nama.
18 Then you shall say, ‘They are your servant, Jacob’s. It is a present sent to my lord, Esau. Behold, he also is behind us.’”
19 Tako zapovedi i drugom i trećem i svima koji iđahu za stadom, i reče: Tako kažite Isavu kad naiđete na nj.
19 He commanded also the second, and the third, and all that followed the herds, saying, “This is how you shall speak to Esau, when you find him.
20 I još kažite: Eto, Jakov sluga tvoj ide za nama. Jer govoraše: Ublažiću ga darom koji ide preda mnom, pa ću mu onda videti lice, da ako me lepo primi.
20 You shall say, ‘Not only that, but behold, your servant, Jacob, is behind us.’” For, he said, “I will appease him with the present that goes before me, and afterward I will see his face. Perhaps he will accept me.”
21 Tako otide dar napred, a on prenoći onu noć kod čete svoje.
21 So the present passed over before him, and he himself stayed that night in the camp.
22 I po noći usta, i uze obe žene i dve robinje i jedanaestoro dece svoje; i prebrodi brod Javok.
22 He rose up that night, and took his two wives, and his two servants, and his eleven sons, and crossed over the ford of the Jabbok.
23 A pošto njih uze i prevede preko potoka, preturi i ostalo što imaše.
23 He took them, and sent them over the stream, and sent over that which he had.
24 A kad osta Jakov sam, tada se jedan čovek rvaše s njim do zore.
24 Jacob was left alone, and wrestled with a man there until the breaking of the day.
25 I kad vide da ga ne može svladati, udari ga po zglavku u stegnu, te se Jakovu iščaši stegno iz zglavka, kad se čovek rvaše s njim.
25 When he saw that he didn’t prevail against him, the man touched the hollow of his thigh, and the hollow of Jacob’s thigh was strained as he wrestled.
26 Pa onda reče: Pusti me, zora je. A Jakov mu reče: Neću te pustiti dokle me ne blagosloviš.
26 The man said, “Let me go, for the day breaks.” Jacob said, “I won’t let you go unless you bless me.”
27 A čovek mu reče: Kako ti je ime. A on odgovori: Jakov.
27 He said to him, “What is your name?” He said, “Jacob”.
28 Tada mu reče: Odsele se nećeš zvati Jakov, nego Izrailj; jer si se junački borio i s Bogom i s ljudima, i odoleo si.
28 He said, “Your name will no longer be called Jacob, but Israel; for you have fought with God and with men, and have prevailed.”
29 A Jakov zapita i reče: Kaži mi kako je tebi ime. A On reče: Što pitaš kako mi je ime? I blagoslovi ga onde.
29 Jacob asked him, “Please tell me your name.” He said, “Why is it that you ask what my name is?” So he blessed him there.
30 I Jakov nadede ime onom mestu Fanuil; jer, veli, Boga videh licem k licu, i duša se moja izbavi.
30 Jacob called the name of the place Peniel; for he said, “I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved.”
31 I sunce mu se rodi kad prođe Fanuil, i hramaše na stegno svoje.
31 The sun rose on him as he passed over Peniel, and he limped because of his thigh.
32 Zato sinovi Izrailjevi ne jedu krajeve od mišića na zglavku u stegnu do današnjeg dana, što se Jakovu povrediše krajevi od mišića na zglavku u stegnu.
32 Therefore the children of Israel don’t eat the sinew of the hip, which is on the hollow of the thigh, to this day, because he touched the hollow of Jacob’s thigh in the sinew of the hip.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
… eternal, and of right belongs eternally to Jerusalem the free mother, where the genuine people of Israel shall be: for this name is interpreted "Seeing God;" in the desire of which reward a pious life is to be led through faith in this miserable pilgrimage.

But this Jacob, when he received another name, heard the same words, "Thou shalt not be called Jacob, but Israel shalt thou be called." Search the Scriptures, and see how that he was always called both, both Jacob and Israel.
