1Now Abraham journeyed from there to the region of the Negev and settled between Kadesh and Shur. While he was staying in Gerar,
1А Аврам отиде оданде на југ, и стани се између Кадиса и Сура; и живеше као дошљак у Герару.
2Abraham said of his wife Sarah, “She is my sister.” So Abimelech king of Gerar had Sarah brought to him.
2И говораше за жену своју Сару: Сестра ми је. А цар герарски Авимелех посла те узе Сару.
3One night, however, God came to Abimelech in a dream and told him, “You are as good as dead because of the woman you have taken, for she is a married woman.”
3Али дође Бог Авимелеху ноћу у сну, и рече му: Гле, погинућеш са жене коју си узео, јер има мужа.
4Now Abimelech had not gone near her, so he replied, “Lord, would You destroy a nation even though it is innocent?
4А Авимелех не беше се ње дотакао, и зато рече: Господе, еда ли ћеш и праведан народ погубити?
5Didn’t Abraham tell me, ‘She is my sister’? And she herself said, ‘He is my brother.’ I have done this in the integrity of my heart and the innocence of my hands.”
5Није ли ми сам казао: Сестра ми је? А и она сама каза: Брат ми је. Учинио сам у чистоти срца свог и у правди руку својих.
6Then God said to Abimelech in the dream, “Yes, I know that you did this with a clear conscience, and so I have kept you from sinning against Me. That is why I did not let you touch her.
6Тада му рече Бог у сну: Знам да си учинио у чистоти срца свог, зато те сачувах да ми не сагрешиш, и не дадох да је се дотакнеш.
7Now return the man’s wife, for he is a prophet; he will pray for you and you will live. But if you do not restore her, be aware that you will surely die—you and all who belong to you.”
7А сада врати човеку жену његову, јер је пророк, и молиће се за те, те ћеш остати жив. Ако ли не вратиш, знај да ћеш умрети ти и сви твоји.
8Early the next morning Abimelech got up and summoned all his servants; and when he described to them all that had happened, the men were terrified.
8И ујутру рано уста Авимелех, и сазва све слуге своје, и каза им све ово да чују. И уплашише се људи веома.
9Then Abimelech called Abraham and asked, “What have you done to us? How have I sinned against you, that you have brought such tremendous guilt upon me and my kingdom? You have done things to me that should not be done.”
9Тада Авимелех дозва Аврама и рече му: Шта си нам учинио? Шта ли сам ти згрешио, те навуче на ме и на царство моје толико зло? Учинио си ми шта не ваља чинити.
10Abimelech also asked Abraham, “What prompted you to do such a thing?”
10И још рече Авимелех Авраму: Шта ти је било, те си то учинио?
11Abraham replied, “I thought to myself, ‘Surely there is no fear of God in this place. They will kill me on account of my wife.’
11А Аврам одговори: Говорих: јамачно нема страха Божјег у овом месту, па ће ме убити ради жене моје.
12Besides, she really is my sister, the daughter of my father—though not the daughter of my mother—and she became my wife.
12А управо и јесте ми сестра, кћи оца мог; али није кћи моје матере, па пође за ме.
13So when God had me journey from my father’s house, I said to Sarah, ‘This is how you can show your loyalty to me: Wherever we go, say of me, “He is my brother.”’”
13А кад ме Бог изведе из дома оца мог, ја јој рекох: Учини добро, и кажи за ме где год дођемо: Брат ми је.
14So Abimelech brought sheep and cattle, menservants and maidservants, and he gave them to Abraham and restored his wife Sarah to him.
14Тада Авимелех узе оваца и говеда и слуга и слушкиња, те даде Авраму, и врати му Сару жену његову.
15And Abimelech said, “Look, my land is before you. Settle wherever you please.”
15И рече Авимелех Авраму: Ево, земља ти је моја отворена, живи слободно где ти је воља.
16And he said to Sarah, “See, I am giving your brother a thousand pieces of silver. It is your vindication before all who are with you; you are completely cleared.”
16А Сари рече: Ево дао сам твом брату хиљаду сребрника; гле, он ти је очима покривало пред свима који буду с тобом; и то све да ти је за науку.
17Then Abraham prayed to God, and God healed Abimelech and his wife and his maidservants, so that they could again bear children—
17И Аврам се помоли Богу, и исцели Бог Авимелеха и жену његову и слушкиње његове, те рађаху.
18for on account of Abraham’s wife Sarah, the LORD had completely closed all the wombs in Abimelech’s household.
18Јер Господ беше сасвим затворио сваку материцу у дому Авимелеховом ради Саре жене Аврамове.
