2 Mojzes 33

1 Gospod je rekel Mojzesu: »Odpravi se in pojdi od tod gor, ti in ljudstvo, ki si ga privedel gor iz egiptovske dežele, v deželo, ki sem jo prisegel Abrahamu, Izaku in Jakobu, rekoč: ›Tvojemu semenu jo bom dal, ‹

The LORD spoke to Moses, “Depart, go up from here, you and the people that you have brought up out of the land of Egypt, to the land of which I swore to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, saying, ‘I will give it to your offspring.’

2 jaz pa bom pred teboj poslal angela, in jaz bom napodil Kánaanca, Amoréjca in Hetejca in Perizéjca, Hivéjca in Jebusejca

I will send an angel before you; and I will drive out the Canaanite, the Amorite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite.

3 v deželo, kjer tečeta mleko in med, kajti jaz ne bom šel gor v tvoji sredi, kajti trdovratno ljudstvo si, da te na poti ne použijem.«

Go to a land flowing with milk and honey; but I will not go up among you, for you are a stiff-necked people, lest I consume you on the way.”

4 Ko je ljudstvo slišalo te zle vesti, je žalovalo in noben človek si nase ni nadel ornamentov.

When the people heard this evil news, they mourned; and no one put on his jewelry.

5 Kajti Gospod je rekel Mojzesu: »Reci Izraelovim otrokom: ›Vi ste trdovratno ljudstvo. V trenutku bom prišel v tvojo sredo in te použil, zato sedaj iz sebe odloži svoje ornamente, da lahko vem, kaj ti storiti.‹«

The LORD had said to Moses, “Tell the children of Israel, ‘You are a stiff-necked people. If I were to go up among you for one moment, I would consume you. Therefore now take off your jewelry from you, that I may know what to do to you.’”

6 Izraelovi otroci so se pri gori Horeb ogolili svojih ornamentov.

The children of Israel stripped themselves of their jewelry from Mount Horeb onward.

7 Mojzes je vzel šotorsko svetišče in ga postavil zunaj tabora, daleč od tabora ter ga imenoval Šotorsko svetišče skupnosti. In pripetilo se je, da kdorkoli je iskal Gospoda, je odšel k šotorskemu svetišču skupnosti, ki je bil zunaj tabora.

Now Moses used to take the tent and pitch it outside the camp, far away from the camp, and he called it “The Tent of Meeting.” Everyone who sought the LORD went out to the Tent of Meeting, which was outside the camp.

8 Pripetilo se je, ko je Mojzes šel ven v šotorsko svetišče, da je vse ljudstvo vstalo in vsak mož je stal pri vratih svojega šotora in gledal za Mojzesom, dokler ta ni odšel v šotorsko svetišče.

When Moses went out to the Tent, all the people rose up, and stood, everyone at their tent door, and watched Moses, until he had gone into the Tent.

9 Ko je Mojzes vstopil v šotorsko svetišče, se je pripetilo, [da] se je spustil oblačen steber in stal pri vratih šotorskega svetišča in Gospod je govoril z Mojzesom.

When Moses entered into the Tent, the pillar of cloud descended, stood at the door of the Tent, and the LORD spoke with Moses.

10 Vse ljudstvo je videlo oblačen steber stati pri vratih šotorskega svetišča, in vse ljudstvo je vstalo in oboževalo, vsak mož pri vratih svojega šotora.

All the people saw the pillar of cloud stand at the door of the Tent, and all the people rose up and worshiped, everyone at their tent door.

11 Gospod je govoril Mojzesu iz obličja v obličje, kakor človek govori svojemu prijatelju. In ponovno se je napotil v tabor, toda njegov služabnik, Nunov sin Józue, mladenič, ni odšel iz šotorskega svetišča.

The LORD spoke to Moses face to face, as a man speaks to his friend. He turned again into the camp, but his servant Joshua, the son of Nun, a young man, didn’t depart from the Tent.

12 Mojzes je rekel Gospodu: »Glej, praviš mi: ›Privedi to ljudstvo gor, ‹ pa mi nisi dal spoznati koga hočeš poslati z menoj. Vendar si rekel: ›Poznam te po imenu in tudi milost si našel v mojih očeh.‹

Moses said to the LORD, “Behold, you tell me, ‘Bring up this people;’ and you haven’t let me know whom you will send with me. Yet you have said, ‘I know you by name, and you have also found favor in my sight.’

13 Zdaj torej, prosim te, če sem našel milost v tvojih očeh, pokaži mi torej svojo pot, da te lahko spoznam, da lahko najdem milost v tvojih očeh. Preudari, da je ta narod tvoje ljudstvo.«

Now therefore, if I have found favor in your sight, please show me your way, now, that I may know you, so that I may find favor in your sight; and consider that this nation is your people.”

14 In on je rekel: »Moja prisotnost bo šla s teboj in jaz ti bom dal počitek.«

He said, “My presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.”

15 Rekel mu je: »Če tvoja prisotnost ne gre z menoj, nas ne odvedi tja gor.

Moses said to him, “If your presence doesn’t go with me, don’t carry us up from here.

16 Kajti v čem bo to znano tukaj, da smo jaz in tvoje ljudstvo našli milost v tvojih očeh? Mar ni to v tem, da hodiš z nami? Tako bomo ločeni, jaz in tvoje ljudstvo, od vseh ljudstev, ki so na obličju zemlje.«

For how would people know that I have found favor in your sight, I and your people? Isn’t it that you go with us, so that we are separated, I and your people, from all the people who are on the surface of the earth?”

17 Gospod je rekel Mojzesu: »Storil bom tudi to stvar, ki si jo govoril, kajti našel si milost v mojih očeh in jaz te poznam po imenu.«

The LORD said to Moses, “I will do this thing also that you have spoken; for you have found favor in my sight, and I know you by name.”

18 Ta je rekel: »Rotim te, pokaži mi svojo slavo.«

Moses said, “Please show me your glory.”

19 In on je rekel: »Vsej svoji dobroti bom storil iti pred teboj in razglašal bom Gospodovo ime pred teboj in milostljiv bom, komur hočem biti milostljiv in usmiljenje bom pokazal na tistem, na komer hočem pokazati usmiljenje.«

He said, “I will make all my goodness pass before you, and will proclaim the LORD’s name before you. I will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and will show mercy on whom I will show mercy.”

20 Rekel je: »Ne moreš videti mojega obličja, kajti noben človek me ne bo videl in živel.«

He said, “You cannot see my face, for man may not see me and live.”

21 Gospod je rekel: »Glej, tukaj je prostor pri meni in ti boš stopil na skalo.

The LORD also said, “Behold, there is a place by me, and you shall stand on the rock.

22 Zgodilo se bo, medtem ko gre moja slava mimo, da te bom postavil v skalno pečino in s svojo roko te bom pokril, medtem ko grem mimo.

It will happen, while my glory passes by, that I will put you in a cleft of the rock, and will cover you with my hand until I have passed by;

23 In odstranil bom svojo roko in videl boš moje zadnje dele, toda mojega obličja ne bo videti.«

then I will take away my hand, and you will see my back; but my face shall not be seen.”
