Exodus 16
1 And they departed from Aelim, and all the congregation of the children of Israel came to the wilderness of Sin, which is between Aelim and Sina; and on the fifteenth day, in the second month after their departure from the land of Egypt,
Potom krenu iz Elima, i sva izraelska zajednica dođe u pustinju Sin, koja je između Elima i Sinaja, petnaestoga dana drugoga mjeseca nakon odlaska iz zemlje egipatske.
2 all the congregation of the children of Israel murmured against Moses and Aaron.
U pustinji sva izraelska zajednica počne mrmljati protiv Mojsija i Arona.
3 And the children of Israel said to them, Would we had died struck by the Lord in the land of Egypt, when we sat by the flesh-pots, and ate bread to satiety! for you have brought us out into this wilderness, to kill all this congregation with hunger.
“Oh, da smo pomrli od ruke Jahvine u zemlji egipatskoj kad smo sjedili kod lonaca s mesom i jeli kruha do mile volje!” - rekoše im. “Izveli ste nas u ovu pustinju da sve ovo mnoštvo gladom pomorite!”
4 And the Lord said to Moses, Behold, I [will] rain bread upon you out of heaven: and the people shall go forth, and they shall gather their daily portion for the day, that I may try them whether they will walk in my law or not.
Tada reče Jahve Mojsiju: “Učinit ću da vam daždi kruh s neba. Neka narod ide i skuplja svaki dan koliko mu za dan treba. Tako ću ih kušati i vidjeti hoće li se držati moga zakona ili neće.
5 And it shall come to pass on the sixth day that they shall prepare whatever they have brought in, and it shall be double of what they shall have gathered for the day, daily.
A šestoga dana, kad spreme što su nakupili, bit će dvaput onoliko koliko su skupljali za svaki dan.”
6 And Moses and Aaron said to all the congregation of the children of Israel, At even you shall know that the Lord has brought you out of the land of Egypt;
Onda Mojsije i Aron progovore svim Izraelcima: “Večeras ćete poznati da vas je Jahve izveo iz zemlje egipatske,
7 and in the morning you shall see the glory of the Lord, inasmuch as he hears your murmuring against God; and who are we, that you continue to murmur against us?
a ujutro ćete vidjeti svojim očima Jahvinu slavu, jer vas je čuo Jahve kako ste protiv njega mrmljali. Što smo mi da protiv nas mrmljate?
8 And Moses said, [This shall be] when the Lord gives you in the evening flesh to eat, and bread in the morning to satiety, because the Lord has heard your murmuring, which you murmur against us: and what are we? for your murmuring is not against us, but against God.
Večeras će vam Jahve dati mesa da jedete”, nastavi Mojsije, “a ujutro kruha do mile volje, jer je Jahve čuo vaše mrmljanje protiv njega. Što smo mi? Vi ne mrmljate protiv nas nego protiv Jahve.”
9 And Moses said to Aaron, Say to all the congregation of the children of Israel, Come near before God; for he has heard your murmuring.
Poslije toga rekne Mojsije Aronu: “Reci svoj izraelskoj zajednici: 'Skupite se pred Jahvu, jer je čuo vaše mrmljanje!'”
10 And when Aaron spoke to all the congregation of the children of Israel, and they turned towards the wilderness, then the glory of the Lord appeared in a cloud.
I dok je Aron svoj izraelskoj zajednici govorio, oni se okrenu prema pustinji, i gle! u oblaku pojavi se Jahvina slava.
11 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
Onda se Jahve oglasi Mojsiju i reče mu:
12 I have heard the murmuring of the children of Israel: speak to them, saying, Towards evening you shall eat flesh, and in the morning you shall be satisfied with bread; and you shall know that I am the Lord your God.
“Čuo sam mrmljanje Izraelaca. Ovako im reci: 'Večeras ćete jesti meso, a ujutro ćete se nasititi kruha. Tada ćete poznati da sam ja Jahve, Bog vaš.'”
13 And it was evening, and quails came up and covered the camp:
I doista! Navečer se pojave prepelice i prekriju tabor. A ujutro obilna rosa sve orosila oko tabora.
14 in the morning it came to pass as the dew ceased round about the camp, that, behold, on the face of the wilderness [was] a small thing like white coriander seed, as frost upon the earth.
Kad se prevlaka rose digla, površinom pustinje ležao tanak sloj, nešto poput pahuljica, kao da se slana uhvatila po zemlji.
15 And when the children of Israel saw it, they said one to another, What is this? for they knew not what it was; and Moses said to them,
Kad su Izraelci to vidjeli, pitali su jedan drugoga: “Što je to?” Jer nisu znali što je. Onda im Mojsije reče: “To je kruh koji vam je Jahve pribavio za hranu.
16 This [is] the bread which the Lord has given you to eat. This is that which the Lord has appointed: gather of it each man for his family, a homer for each person, according to the number of your souls, gather each of you with his fellow-lodgers.
A ovo je zapovijed koju je Jahve izdao: 'Nakupite koliko kome treba za jelo - jedan gomer po osobi, svatko prema broju članova koji su mu u šatoru.'”
17 And the children of Israel did so, and gathered some much and some less.
Izraelci tako uradiše. Neki nakupe više, neki manje.
18 And having measured the homer [full], he that gathered much had nothing over, and he that had gathered less had no lack; each gathered according to the need of those who belonged to him.
Kad su izmjerili na gomer, pokaza se da nije ništa preteklo onome koji bijaše nakupio mnogo, a niti je nedostajalo onome koji bijaše nakupio manje: svatko je nakupio koliko mu je trebalo za jelo.
19 And Moses said to them, Let no man leave of it till the morning.
“Neka nitko ne ostavlja ništa za ujutro!” - rekne im Mojsije.
20 But they did not listen to Moses, but some left of it till the morning; and it bred worms and stank: and Moses was irritated with them.
Ali oni nisu poslušali Mojsija; neki ostave i za sutra. A to im se ucrva i usmrdje. Mojsije se na njih razljuti.
21 And they gathered it every morning, each man what he needed, and when the sun waxed hot it melted.
Tako su skupljali svako jutro koliko je kome trebalo za jelo. I kad bi sunce ogrijalo, mÓana bi se rastopila.
22 And it came to pass on the sixth day, they gathered double what was needed, two homers for one [man]; and all the chiefs of the synagogue went in and reported it to Moses.
Onda šestoga dana nakupiše dvostruku količinu hrane - po dva gomera na svakoga. Kad su starješine zajednice došle da izvijeste Mojsija,
23 And Moses said to them, Is not this the word which the Lord spoke? To-morrow [is] the sabbath, a holy rest to the Lord: bake that you will bake, and seethe that you will seethe, and all that is over leave to be laid by for the morrow.
on im reče: “Ovo je zapovijed Jahvina: Sutra je dan potpunog odmora, subota Jahvi posvećena. Ispecite što želite peći; skuhajte što želite kuhati. Sve što vam preteče ostavite za sutra.”
24 And they left of it till the morning, as Moses commanded them; and it stank not, neither was there a worm in it.
Ostave to oni za sutra, kako je Mojsije naredio, i niti se usmrdjelo niti su se crvi pojavili.
25 And Moses said, Eat [that] today, for today is a sabbath to the Lord: [it] shall not be found in the plain.
“Jedite to danas”, reče im Mojsije, “jer je ovaj dan subota u čast Jahve; danas nećete naći mÓane na polju.
26 Six days you shall gather it, and on the seventh day is a sabbath, for there shall be none on that [day].
Šest je dana skupljajte, a sedmoga, u subotu, neće je biti.”
27 And it came to pass on the seventh day [that] some of the people went forth to gather, and found none.
Bijaše nekih koji su i sedmoga dana išli da je nakupe, ali ništa ne nađoše.
28 And the Lord said to Moses, How long are you unwilling to listen to my commands and my law?
Zato Jahve reče Mojsiju: “Dokle ćete odbijati da se pokorite mojim zapovijedima i mojim zakonima?
29 See, for the Lord has given you this day [as] the sabbath, therefore he has given you on the sixth day the bread of two days: you shall sit each of you in your houses; let no one go forth from his place on the seventh day.
Pogledajte! Zato što vam je Jahve dao subotu, daje vam hrane šestoga dana za dva dana. Neka svatko stoji gdje jest; neka nitko u sedmi dan ne izlazi iz svoga stana.”
30 And the people kept sabbath on the seventh day.
Tako se sedmoga dana narod odmarao.
31 And the children of Israel called the name of it Man; and it was as white coriander seed, and the taste of it as a wafer with honey.
Dom je Izraelov tu hranu prozvao mÓanom. Bijaše kao zrno korijandra; bijela, a imala je ukus medenog kolačića.
32 And Moses said, This [is] the thing which the Lord has commanded, Fill an homer with manna, to be laid up for your generations; that they may see the bread which you ate in the wilderness, when the Lord led you forth out of the land of Egypt.
Onda rekne Mojsije: “Ovo je zapovijed koju je izdao Jahve: Napunite tim jedan gomer i čuvajte ga za svoje potomke da vide hranu kojom sam vas hranio u pustinji kad sam vas izbavio iz zemlje egipatske.”
33 And Moses said to Aaron, Take a golden pot, and cast into it one full homer of manna; and you shall lay it up before God, to be kept for your generations,
I naredi Mojsije Aronu: “Uzmi jednu posudu; stavi u nju cio gomer mane, a onda je položi pred Jahvu da se sačuva za vaše potomke.”
34 as the Lord commanded Moses: and Aaron laid it up before the testimony to be kept.
Kako je Jahve naredio Mojsiju, Aron je stavi pred Svjedočanstvo na čuvanje.
35 And the children of Israel ate manna forty years, until they came to the land they ate the manna, until they came to the region of Phoenicia.
Izraelci su se hranili manom četrdeset godina, sve dok nisu došli u naseljenu zemlju: jeli su manu do dolaska na granicu zemlje kanaanske.
36 Now the homer was the tenth part of three measures.
Gomer je deseti dio efe.
