Izlazak 13
1 Jahve reče Mojsiju:
Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
2 “Meni posvetite svakoga prvorođenca! Prvenci materina krila kod Izraelaca, i od ljudi i od životinja, meni pripadaju!”
“Sanctify to me all the firstborn, whatever opens the womb among the children of Israel, both of man and of animal. It is mine.”
3 A onda Mojsije reče narodu: “Sjećajte se ovoga dana u koji ste izbavljeni iz Egipta, iz kuće ropstva, jer vas Jahve izbavi odande svojom jakom mišicom. Ukvasani kruh neka se ne jede!
Moses said to the people, “Remember this day, in which you came out of Egypt, out of the house of bondage; for by strength of hand Yahweh brought you out from this place. No leavened bread shall be eaten.
4 Ovoga dana mjeseca Abiba vaše je izbavljenje.
Today you go out in the month Abib.
5 Stoga: kad te Jahve uvede u zemlju Kanaanaca, Hetita, Amorejaca, Hivijaca i Jebusejaca, za koju se zakleo tvojim precima da će ti je dati - zemlju kojom teče med i mlijeko - ovoga mjeseca obavi ovakav obred:
It shall be, when Yahweh brings you into the land of the Canaanite, and the Hittite, and the Amorite, and the Hivite, and the Jebusite, which he swore to your fathers to give you, a land flowing with milk and honey, that you shall keep this service in this month.
6 sedam dana jedi nekvasan kruh, a sedmoga dana neka se slavi svetkovina u čast Jahvi.
Seven days you shall eat unleavened bread, and in the seventh day shall be a feast to Yahweh.
7 Sedam dana neka se jede nekvasan kruh; ukvasanog kruha neka ne bude kod tebe; i neka se nigdje ne vidi kvasac na tvome području.
Unleavened bread shall be eaten throughout the seven days; and no leavened bread shall be seen with you. No yeast shall be seen with you, within all your borders.
8 Svome sinu toga dana objasni: to je za ono što mi je Jahve učinio kad sam se iz Egipta izbavio.
You shall tell your son in that day, saying, ‘It is because of that which Yahweh did for me when I came out of Egypt.’
9 Neka ti bude kao znak na tvojoj ruci i kao opomena na tvome čelu: da Jahvin zakon bude uvijek na tvojim ustima. Jer te rukom jakom Jahve izbavio iz Egipta.
It shall be for a sign to you on your hand, and for a memorial between your eyes, that Yahweh’s law may be in your mouth; for with a strong hand Yahweh has brought you out of Egypt.
10 Ovaj propis vršite svake godine u određeno vrijeme.”
You shall therefore keep this ordinance in its season from year to year.
11 “A kada te Jahve dovede u zemlju Kanaanaca - kako vam se zakle, tebi i tvojim ocima - i kada ti je preda,
“It shall be, when Yahweh brings you into the land of the Canaanite, as he swore to you and to your fathers, and will give it to you,
12 ustupajte Jahvi prvorođence materinjega krila, a tako i sve prvine što ih tvoja stoka dade - svako muško pripada Jahvi!
that you shall set apart to Yahweh all that opens the womb, and every firstborn that comes from an animal which you have. The males shall be Yahweh’s.
13 Svaku prvinu magaradi otkupi janjetom ili jaretom. Ako je ne otkupiš, slomi joj vrat. A svakoga prvorođenca između svoje djece otkupi.
Every firstborn of a donkey you shall redeem with a lamb; and if you will not redeem it, then you shall break its neck; and you shall redeem all the firstborn of man among your sons.
14 Kad te sin tvoj sutra zapita: Što znači to? - odgovori mu: Rukom jakom izvede nas Jahve iz Egipta, iz kuće ropstva.
It shall be, when your son asks you in time to come, saying, ‘What is this?’ that you shall tell him, ‘By strength of hand Yahweh brought us out from Egypt, from the house of bondage.
15 Kako je faraon postao tvrdokoran pa nas nije htio pustiti, Jahve je poubijao sve prvorođence u zemlji egipatskoj: prvorođence ljudi i prvine stoke. Eto zato Jahvi žrtvujem svaku mušku prvinu materinjega krila, a svakoga prvorođenca od svojih sinova otkupljujem.
When Pharaoh stubbornly refused to let us go, Yahweh killed all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both the firstborn of man, and the firstborn of livestock. Therefore I sacrifice to Yahweh all that opens the womb, being males; but all the firstborn of my sons I redeem.’
16 Neka ti to bude kao znak na tvojoj ruci i kao znamenje posred čela da nas je rukom jakom Jahve izbavio iz Egipta.”
It shall be for a sign on your hand, and for symbols between your eyes; for by strength of hand Yahweh brought us out of Egypt.”
17 Kad je faraon dopustio da narod ode, Bog ih nije poveo prema filistejskoj zemlji, iako je onuda bilo najbliže. Bog je, naime, rekao: “Mogao bi se narod predomisliti i vratiti u Egipat kad vidi ratovanje.”
When Pharaoh had let the people go, God didn’t lead them by the way of the land of the Philistines, although that was near; for God said, “Lest perhaps the people change their minds when they see war, and they return to Egypt”;
18 Stoga Bog povede narod zaobilaznim putem, kroz pustinju prema Crvenome moru. Izraelci su napustili zemlju egipatsku naoružani od glave do pete.
but God led the people around by the way of the wilderness by the Red Sea; and the children of Israel went up armed out of the land of Egypt.
19 Mojsije ponese sa sobom Josipove kosti. Jer Josip bijaše zakleo Izraelce riječima: “Bog će se zacijelo za vas zauzeti. Tada i moje kosti odavde ponesite sa sobom!”
Moses took the bones of Joseph with him, for he had made the children of Israel swear, saying, “God will surely visit you, and you shall carry up my bones away from here with you.”
20 Krenuvši iz Sukota, utabore se u Etamu, na kraju pustinje.
They took their journey from Succoth, and encamped in Etham, in the edge of the wilderness.
21 Jahve je išao pred njima, danju u stupu od oblaka da im put pokazuje, a noću u stupu od ognja da im svijetli. Tako su mogli putovati i danju i noću.
Yahweh went before them by day in a pillar of cloud, to lead them on their way, and by night in a pillar of fire, to give them light, that they might go by day and by night:
22 I nije ispred naroda nestajao stup od oblaka danju ni stup od ognja noću.
the pillar of cloud by day, and the pillar of fire by night, didn’t depart from before the people.
