Capítulo 42
1
Kad je Jakov čuo da u Egiptu ima žita, reče svojim sinovima: “Što tu zurite jedan u drugoga?
2
Čujem da ima žita u Egiptu. Otiđite dolje te nam ga odande nabavite da ostanemo na životu i ne pomremo.”
3
Tako desetero Josipove braće siđe da nabavi žita iz Egipta.
4
Benjamina, Josipova pravog brata, Jakov ne posla s ostalima. “Da ga ne bi zadesila kakva nesreća”, govorio je.
5
Među onima koji su išli nabavljati žito, jer u zemlji kanaanskoj vladaše glad, bijahu i sinovi Izraelovi.
6
Josip je bio namjesnik u zemlji; on je dijelio žito svemu svijetu. Dođu tako i Josipova braća i poklone mu se licem do zemlje.
7
Josip prepozna braću čim ih ugleda, ali se prema njima vladao kao stranac i oštro im govorio. Zapita ih: “Odakle dolazite?” Odgovore: “Iz zemlje kanaanske došli smo da kupimo hrane.”
8
Iako je Josip prepoznao svoju braću, oni njega nisu prepoznali.
9
Josip se sjeti snova što ih je o njima sanjao. I reče im: “Vi ste uhode! Došli ste da izvidite slaba mjesta ove zemlje.”
10
Oni mu odgovore: “Ne, gospodaru! Tvoje su sluge došle da nabave hrane.
11
Svi smo sinovi jednog oca; pošteni smo ljudi; sluge tvoje nikad nisu bile uhode.”
12
On će im opet: “Ne, nego ste došli da izvidite slaba mjesta ove zemlje.”
13
Nato oni uzvrate: “Nas, tvojih slugu, bijaše dvanaestero braće - sinovi jednog oca, u zemlji kanaanskoj; najmlađi je sad s ocem, a jednoga više nema.”
14
No Josip im dobaci: “Onako kako sam vam već rekao: vi ste uhode!
15
Ovako ću vas iskušati: odavde, tako mi faraona, nećete izići ako vaš najmlađi brat ne dođe ovamo!
16
Pošaljite jednoga između sebe da vam dovede brata, a vi ostali u zatvor! Tako ću iskušati vaše riječi i vidjeti je li u vas istina ili nije. Inače, tako mi faraona, vi ste uhode!”
17
Potom ih baci u zatvor na tri dana.
18
Treći im dan reče Josip: “Izvršite to, i ostat ćete na životu, jer sam ja čovjek bogobojazan.
19
Ako ste pošteni, neka jedan od vas ostane u zatvoru, a vi ostali idite i nosite žito svojim izgladnjelim domovima.
20
Poslije toga dovedite mi svoga najmlađeg brata, tako da se obistine vaše riječi te da ne izginete.” Oni pristanu.
21
Zatim je jedan drugom govorio: “Jao nama! Stiže nas kazna zbog našega brata; gledali smo njegovu muku dok nas je molio za milost, ali ga nismo uslišali. Stoga nas je ova nevolja snašla.”
22
Ruben im odvrati: “Zar vam nisam govorio: Ne ogrešujte se o mladića! Ali vi niste slušali. Sad se traži račun za njegovu krv.”
23
Nisu znali da ih Josip razumije, jer su se s njim razgovarali preko tumača.
24
On se od njih udalji te zaplaka. Opet se vrati i razgovaraše s njima. Onda izdvoji Šimuna između njih i naredi da bude svezan na njihove oči.
25
Potom Josip zapovjedi da im vreće napune žitom; da svakome njegov novac metnu u vreću i da im daju poputninu. Tako im učine.
26
Tada oni natovare žito na svoje magarce i krenu odande.
27
Kad na prenoćištu jedan od njih otvori svoju vreću da nahrani magarca, opazi svoj novac ozgo u vreći.
28
“Moj je novac vraćen!” - povika braći. - “Evo ga u mojoj vreći!” Zadrhta srce u njima. Zgledaše se, uplašeni, i rekoše: “Što nam ovo Bog uradi!”
29
Došavši k svome ocu Jakovu u zemlju kanaansku, kazaše mu sve što ih je snašlo.
30
“Čovjek koji je gospodar one zemlje”, rekoše, “oštro nam je govorio i optužio nas kao uhode.
31
Pošteni smo ljudi, kazasmo mu, i nikad nismo bili uhode.
32
Bilo nas je dvanaestero braće, sinovi istog oca, ali jednoga više nema, dok se najmlađi sad nalazi s našim ocem u zemlji kanaanskoj.
33
Ali čovjek koji je gospodar one zemlje reče nam: 'Ovim ću doznati da ste pošteni ljudi: ostavite jednoga brata kod mene, a vi ostali uzmite što vam treba za izgladnjele domove, pa idite.
34
Onda mi dovedite svoga najmlađeg brata, tako da znam da niste uhode, nego pošteni ljudi. Poslije toga vratit ću vam vašeg brata, i vi ćete se moći slobodno kretati u ovoj zemlji.'”
35
Kako su praznili svoje vreće, svaki nađe u vreći svoju kesu. Opazivši to, zapadoše u strah - i oni i njihov otac.
36
“Mene vi ostavljate bez djece!” - reče im njihov otac. - “Josipa je nestalo, Šimuna nema, a sad biste odveli i Benjamina. Sve se to na me svaljuje!”
37
Onda Ruben reče svome ocu: “Ubij moja dva sina ako ti ga ja natrag ne dovedem! Predaj ga u moje ruke, i ja ću ti ga vratiti!”
38
“Moj sin neće s vama!” - uzvrati on. - “Njegov je pravi brat već mrtav, a on je ostao sam. Ako bi ga na putu na koji ćete poći snašla nesreća, u tuzi biste otpravili moju sijedu glavu dolje u Šeol.”
Genesis
Capítulo 42
1
Now when Jacob saw that there was corn in Egypt, Jacob said unto his sons, Why do ye look one upon another?
2
And he said, Behold, I have heard that there is corn in Egypt: get you down thither, and buy for us from thence; that we may live, and not die.
3
¶ And Joseph’s ten brethren went down to buy corn in Egypt.
4
But Benjamin, Joseph’s brother, Jacob sent not with his brethren; for he said, Lest peradventure mischief befall him.
5
And the sons of Israel came to buy corn among those that came: for the famine was in the land of Canaan.
6
And Joseph was the governor over the land, and he it was that sold to all the people of the land: and Joseph’s brethren came, and bowed down themselves before him with their faces to the earth.
7
And Joseph saw his brethren, and he knew them, but made himself strange unto them, and spake roughly unto them; and he said unto them, Whence come ye? And they said, From the land of Canaan to buy food.
8
And Joseph knew his brethren, but they knew not him.
9
And Joseph remembered the dreams which he dreamed of them, and said unto them, Ye are spies; to see the nakedness of the land ye are come.
10
And they said unto him, Nay, my lord, but to buy food are thy servants come.
11
We are all one man’s sons; we are true men, thy servants are no spies.
12
And he said unto them, Nay, but to see the nakedness of the land ye are come.
13
And they said, Thy servants are twelve brethren, the sons of one man in the land of Canaan; and, behold, the youngest is this day with our father, and one is not.
14
And Joseph said unto them, That is it that I spake unto you, saying, Ye are spies:
15
Hereby ye shall be proved: By the life of Pharaoh ye shall not go forth hence, except your youngest brother come hither.
16
Send one of you, and let him fetch your brother, and ye shall be kept in prison, that your words may be proved, whether there be any truth in you: or else by the life of Pharaoh surely ye are spies.
17
And he put them all together into ward three days.
18
And Joseph said unto them the third day, This do, and live; for I fear God:
19
If ye be true men, let one of your brethren be bound in the house of your prison: go ye, carry corn for the famine of your houses:
20
But bring your youngest brother unto me; so shall your words be verified, and ye shall not die. And they did so.
21
¶ And they said one to another, We are verily guilty concerning our brother, in that we saw the anguish of his soul, when he besought us, and we would not hear; therefore is this distress come upon us.
22
And Reuben answered them, saying, Spake I not unto you, saying, Do not sin against the child; and ye would not hear? therefore, behold, also his blood is required.
23
And they knew not that Joseph understood them; for he spake unto them by an interpreter.
24
And he turned himself about from them, and wept; and returned to them again, and communed with them, and took from them Simeon, and bound him before their eyes.
25
¶ Then Joseph commanded to fill their sacks with corn, and to restore every man’s money into his sack, and to give them provision for the way: and thus did he unto them.
26
And they laded their asses with the corn, and departed thence.
27
And as one of them opened his sack to give his ass provender in the inn, he espied his money; for, behold, it was in his sack’s mouth.
28
And he said unto his brethren, My money is restored; and, lo, it is even in my sack: and their heart failed them, and they were afraid, saying one to another, What is this that God hath done unto us?
29
¶ And they came unto Jacob their father unto the land of Canaan, and told him all that befell unto them; saying,
30
The man, who is the lord of the land, spake roughly to us, and took us for spies of the country.
31
And we said unto him, We are true men; we are no spies:
32
We be twelve brethren, sons of our father; one is not, and the youngest is this day with our father in the land of Canaan.
33
And the man, the lord of the country, said unto us, Hereby shall I know that ye are true men; leave one of your brethren here with me, and take food for the famine of your households, and be gone:
34
And bring your youngest brother unto me: then shall I know that ye are no spies, but that ye are true men: so will I deliver you your brother, and ye shall traffick in the land.
35
¶ And it came to pass as they emptied their sacks, that, behold, every man’s bundle of money was in his sack: and when both they and their father saw the bundles of money, they were afraid.
36
And Jacob their father said unto them, Me have ye bereaved of my children: Joseph is not, and Simeon is not, and ye will take Benjamin away: all these things are against me.
37
And Reuben spake unto his father, saying, Slay my two sons, if I bring him not to thee: deliver him into my hand, and I will bring him to thee again.
38
And he said, My son shall not go down with you; for his brother is dead, and he is left alone: if mischief befall him by the way in the which ye go, then shall ye bring down my gray hairs with sorrow to the grave.
