Exodus 4
1 Moses answered, “But, behold, they will not believe me, nor listen to my voice; for they will say, ‘The LORD has not appeared to you.’”
Mojzes je odgovoril in rekel: »Toda, glej, ne bodo mi verjeli niti prisluhnili mojemu glasu, kajti rekli bodo: › Gospod se ti ni prikazal.‹«
2 The LORD said to him, “What is that in your hand?” He said, “A rod.”
Gospod mu je rekel: »Kaj je to v tvoji roki?« Rekel je: »Palica.«
3 He said, “Throw it on the ground.” He threw it on the ground, and it became a snake; and Moses ran away from it.
Rekel je: »Vrzi jo na tla.« Vrgel jo je na tla in ta je postala kača in Mojzes je pobegnil pred njo.
4 The LORD said to Moses, “Stretch out your hand, and take it by the tail.” He stretched out his hand, and took hold of it, and it became a rod in his hand.
Gospod je rekel Mojzesu: »Iztegni svojo roko in jo primi za rep.« Iztegnil je svojo roko in jo ujel in v njegovi roki je postala palica.
5 “This is so that they may believe that the LORD, the God of their fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, has appeared to you.”
»Da bodo oni lahko verjeli, da se ti je prikazal Gospod, Bog njihovih očetov, Bog Abrahama, Bog Izaka in Bog Jakoba.«
6 The LORD said furthermore to him, “Now put your hand inside your cloak.” He put his hand inside his cloak, and when he took it out, behold, his hand was leprous, as white as snow.
Gospod mu je nadalje rekel: »Sedaj daj svojo roko v svoje naročje.« Svojo roko je položil v svoje naročje, ko pa jo je izvlekel, glej, je bila njegova roka gobava kakor sneg.
7 He said, “Put your hand inside your cloak again.” He put his hand inside his cloak again, and when he took it out of his cloak, behold, it had turned again as his other flesh.
Rekel je: »Svojo roko ponovno daj v svoje naročje.« In ponovno je svojo roko položil v svoje naročje in izvlekel jo je iz svojega naročja in glej, ponovno je bila spremenjena kakor drugo njegovo meso.
8 “It will happen, if they will not believe you or listen to the voice of the first sign, that they will believe the voice of the latter sign.
»Zgodilo se bo, če ti ne bodo verjeli niti prisluhnili glasu prvega znamenja, da bodo verjeli glasu zadnjega znamenja.
9 It will happen, if they will not believe even these two signs or listen to your voice, that you shall take of the water of the river, and pour it on the dry land. The water which you take out of the river will become blood on the dry land.”
Zgodilo se bo, če ne bodo verjeli tudi tema dvema znamenjema niti prisluhnili tvojemu glasu, da boš iz reke zajel vodo in jo izlil na suho zemljo in voda, ki jo zajameš iz reke, bo na suhih tleh postala kri.«
10 Moses said to the LORD, “O Lord, I am not eloquent, neither before now, nor since you have spoken to your servant; for I am slow of speech, and of a slow tongue.”
Mojzes je Gospodu rekel: »Oh moj Gospod, jaz nisem zgovoren, niti poprej niti odkar si spregovoril svojemu služabniku, temveč sem počasen za govorjenje in počasnega jezika.«
11 The LORD said to him, “Who made man’s mouth? Or who makes one mute, or deaf, or seeing, or blind? Isn’t it I, the LORD?
Gospod mu je rekel: »Kdo je naredil človekova usta? Ali kdo naredi nemega ali gluhega ali da vidi ali slepega? Ali ne jaz, Gospod?
12 Now therefore go, and I will be with your mouth, and teach you what you shall speak.”
Sedaj torej pojdi in jaz bom s tvojimi usti in te učil kaj boš govoril.«
13 Moses said, “Oh, Lord, please send someone else.”
Rekel je: »Oh moj Gospod, pošlji, prosim te, po roki tistega, ki ga ti hočeš poslati.«
14 The LORD’s anger burned against Moses, and he said, “What about Aaron, your brother, the Levite? I know that he can speak well. Also, behold, he is coming out to meet you. When he sees you, he will be glad in his heart.
Gospodova jeza je bila vžgana zoper Mojzesa in rekel je: » Mar ni Lévijevec Aron tvoj brat? Vem, da lahko dobro govori. In tudi, glej, prihaja, da te sreča in ko te zagleda, bo v svojem srcu vesel.
15 You shall speak to him, and put the words in his mouth. I will be with your mouth, and with his mouth, and will teach you what you shall do.
Ti mu boš govoril in v njegova usta polagal besede in jaz bom s tvojimi usti in z njegovimi usti in vaju učil, kaj bosta storila.
16 He will be your spokesman to the people. It will happen that he will be to you a mouth, and you will be to him as God.
On bo tvoj govornik ljudstvu in on bo, celó on bo tebi namesto ust in ti boš njemu namesto Boga.
17 You shall take this rod in your hand, with which you shall do the signs.”
In v svojo roko boš vzel to palico, s katero boš delal znamenja.«
18 Moses went and returned to Jethro his father-in-law, and said to him, “Please let me go and return to my brothers who are in Egypt, and see whether they are still alive.” Jethro said to Moses, “Go in peace.”
Mojzes je odšel, se vrnil k svojemu tastu Jitru in mu rekel: »Pusti me iti, prosim te in se vrniti k mojim bratom, ki so v Egiptu in videti ali so še živi.« Jitro je Mojzesu rekel: »Pojdi v miru.«
19 The LORD said to Moses in Midian, “Go, return into Egypt; for all the men who sought your life are dead.”
Gospod je v Midjánu rekel Mojzesu: »Pojdi, vrni se v Egipt, kajti vsi ljudje, ki so ti stregli po življenju, so mrtvi.«
20 Moses took his wife and his sons, and set them on a donkey, and he returned to the land of Egypt. Moses took God’s rod in his hand.
Mojzes je vzel svojo ženo in svoja sinova in jih posadil na osla in se vrnil v egiptovsko deželo in Mojzes je v svojo roko vzel Božjo palico.
21 The LORD said to Moses, “When you go back into Egypt, see that you do before Pharaoh all the wonders which I have put in your hand, but I will harden his heart and he will not let the people go.
Gospod je rekel Mojzesu: »Ko greš, da se vrneš v Egipt, glej, da boš pred faraonom storil vse te čudeže, ki sem jih položil v tvojo roko, toda jaz bom zakrknil njegovo srce, da ljudstvu ne bo dovolil oditi.
22 You shall tell Pharaoh, ‘The LORD says, Israel is my son, my firstborn,
Faraonu boš rekel: ›Tako govori Gospod, Izrael je moj sin, celo moj prvorojenec‹
23 and I have said to you, “Let my son go, that he may serve me;” and you have refused to let him go. Behold, I will kill your firstborn son.’”
in jaz ti pravim: ›dovoli mojemu sinu oditi, da mi bo lahko služil. Če pa mu boš odklonil oditi, glej, bom ubil tvojega sina, celó tvojega prvorojenca.‹«
24 On the way at a lodging place, the LORD met Moses and wanted to kill him.
Pripetilo se je po poti v gostišče, da ga je srečal Gospod in si prizadeval, da ga ubije.
25 Then Zipporah took a flint, and cut off the foreskin of her son, and cast it at his feet; and she said, “Surely you are a bridegroom of blood to me.”
Tedaj je Cipóra vzela oster kamen in odrezala prednjo kožico svojega sina in jo vrgla k njegovim stopalom ter rekla: »Zagotovo si mi krvav soprog.«
26 So he let him alone. Then she said, “You are a bridegroom of blood,” because of the circumcision.
Tako ga je pustil oditi. Potem je rekla: »Krvav soprog si zaradi obreze.«
27 The LORD said to Aaron, “Go into the wilderness to meet Moses.” He went, and met him on God’s mountain, and kissed him.
Gospod je rekel Aronu: »Pojdi v divjino, da srečaš Mojzesa.« Ta je odšel in ga srečal na gori Boga ter ga poljubil.
28 Moses told Aaron all the LORD’s words with which he had sent him, and all the signs with which he had instructed him.
Mojzes je povedal Aronu vse besede Gospoda, ki ga je poslal in vsa znamenja, ki mu jih je zapovedal.
29 Moses and Aaron went and gathered together all the elders of the children of Israel.
Mojzes in Aron sta odšla ter zbrala skupaj vse starešine Izraelovih otrok
30 Aaron spoke all the words which the LORD had spoken to Moses, and did the signs in the sight of the people.
in Aron je govoril vse besede, ki jih je Gospod govoril Mojzesu in v očeh ljudstva storil znamenja.
31 The people believed, and when they heard that the LORD had visited the children of Israel, and that he had seen their affliction, then they bowed their heads and worshiped.
Ljudje so verovali in ko so slišali, da je Gospod obiskal Izraelove otroke in da je pogledal na njihovo stisko, potem so sklonili svoje glave in oboževali.
