Postanak 8

Lernen

   

1 A Bog se opomenu Noja i svih zveri i sve stoke što behu s njim u kovčegu; i posla Bog vetar na zemlju da uzbije vodu.

2 I zatvoriše se izvori bezdanu i ustave nebeske, i dažd s neba prestade.

3 I stade voda opadati na zemlji, i jednako opadaše posle sto pedeset dana;

4 Te se ustavi kovčeg sedmog meseca dana sedamnaestog na planini Araratu.

5 I voda opadaše sve većma do desetog meseca; i prvog dana desetog meseca pokazaše se vrhovi od brda.

6 A posle četrdeset dana otvori Noje prozor na kovčegu, koji beše načinio;

7 I ispusti gavrana, koji jednako odletaše i doletaše dokle ne presahnu voda na zemlji.

8 Pa pusti i golubicu da bi video je li opala voda sa zemlje.

9 A golubica ne našavši gde bi stala nogom svojom vrati se k njemu u kovčeg, jer još beše voda po svoj zemlji; i Noje pruživši ruku uhvati je i uze k sebi u kovčeg.

10 I počeka još sedam dana, pa opet ispusti golubicu iz kovčega.

11 I pred veče vrati se k njemu golubica, i gle, u kljunu joj list maslinov, koji beše otkinula; tako pozna Noje da je opala voda sa zemlje.

12 Ali počeka još sedam dana, pa opet ispusti golubicu, a ona mu se više ne vrati.

13 Šest stotina prve godine veka Nojevog prvi dan prvog meseca usahnu voda na zemlji; i Noje otkri krov na kovčegu, i ugleda zemlju suvu.

14 A drugog meseca dvadeset sedmog dana beše sva zemlja suva.

15 Tada reče Bog Noju govoreći:

16 Izađi iz kovčega ti i žena tvoja i sinovi tvoji i žene sinova tvojih s tobom;

17 Sve zveri što su sa tobom od svakog tela, ptice i stoku i šta god gamiže po zemlji, izvedi sa sobom, neka se raziđu po zemlji, i neka se plode i množe na zemlji.

18 I iziđe Noje i sinovi njegovi i žena njegova i žene sinova njegovih s njim.

19 Sve zveri, sve sitne životinje, sve ptice i sve što se miče po zemlji po svojim vrstama iziđoše iz kovčega.

20 I načini Noje žrtvenik Gospodu, i uze od svake čiste stoke i od svih ptica čistih, i prinese na žrtveniku žrtve paljenice.

21 I Gospod omirisa miris ugodni, i reče u srcu svom: Neću više kleti zemlje s ljudi, što je misao srca čovečijeg zla od malena; niti ću više ubijati sve što živi, kao što učinih.

22 Od sada dokle bude zemlje, neće nestajati setve ni žetve, studeni ni vrućine, leta ni zime, dana ni noći.

3940. Verses 14-16 And Reuben went in the days of the wheat harvest and found dudaim in the field, and brought them to Leah his mother. And Rachel said to Leah, Give me now some of your son's dudaim. But she said to her, Is it a small thing for you to have taken my husband? And will you take also my son's dudaim? And Rachel said, Therefore he will lie with you this night [in return] for your son's dudaim. And Jacob came from the field in the evening, and Leah went out to meet him and said, You must come [in] to me, for I have surely hired you with my son's dudaim. And he lay with her that night.

'Reuben went in the days of the wheat harvest' means faith in regard to its state of love and charity. 'And found dudaim in the field' means the essentials of conjugial love that are present within the truth and good of charity and love. 'And brought them to Leah his mother' means application to the affection for external truth. 'And Rachel said to Leah' means perception by the affection for interior truth, and the desire for it. 'Give me now some of your son's dudaim' means for the things belonging to conjugial love, to which it might be joined mutually and reciprocally. 'But she said to her, Is it a small thing for you to have taken my husband?' means the existence of conjugial desire. 'And will you take also my son's dudaim?' means that in that case the conjugial element linking natural good to external truth would be taken away. 'And Rachel said' means consent. 'Therefore he will lie with you this night [in return] for your son's dudaim' means that external truth should be joined to natural good. 'And Jacob came from the field in the evening' means the good of truth in a state of good, yet also in obscurity such as envelops the natural. 'And Leah went out to meet him' means a desire on the part of the affection for external truth. 'And said, You must come [in] to me' means that it might be joined to that good. 'For I have surely hired you with my son's dudaim' means that this had accordingly been seen to and agreed beforehand. 'And he lay with her that night' means the actual joining together.

31 Generation, consider the word of Yahweh. Have I been a wilderness to Israel? Or a land of thick darkness? Why do my people say, 'We have broken loose. We will come to you no more?'
